Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 57 Thunderous Fury (10,000-word update, please subscribe)
Shen Xuan's expression changed drastically.

"They're from the Ding family!"

About a dozen Ding family cultivators fought and retreated.

There were at least twenty pursuers behind them, dressed in various styles and carrying all sorts of magical artifacts.

"Fortunately, the pursuers aren't members of any sect. Let's stop here and see what happens."

As he spoke, Shen Xuan's figure flashed, and he leaped off the flying boat, holding the Emei Dagger of Water Dividing, standing in front of the flying boat.

"Father, can Uncle Shen hold off those people?"

"That's true!"

After regaining his senses, Zhao Chunsheng still possessed a remarkable quick wit.

“Master Shen is a cautious person and never does anything he is not sure of.”

"All those people combined are no match for Master Shen!"

Zhao Dahu was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

There were more than twenty cultivators.

They were chasing after a dozen or so Ding family cultivators, beating them to death.

Ding Yixuan was covered in blood!

He protected his people, fighting and retreating all the way, relying solely on his last breath to keep going.

A dozen or so rogue cultivators followed them relentlessly, like wild dogs on the prairie, constantly attacking them.

Among these people, there were even a few familiar faces.

In the past, when I saw him, I would bow and scrape, addressing him as "Seventh Master Ding" repeatedly.

When it comes to fighting, he is more ruthless than others.

His hands are already stained with the blood of the Ding family!

Ding Yixuan's eyes were bloodshot.

These ten or so people were the hope of the clan.

Ancestor, father, elder brother, and many other relatives all rushed towards the powerful enemy without hesitation.

All I wanted was to leave this last bit of lineage for the Ding family.

"Seventh brother! Your elder brother is incompetent! From now on, the revitalization of the Ding family depends entirely on you!"

As we parted, my elder brother was moved to tears.

"Let's go together, we can give Qinglong Bay to them!"

"Foolish! They want Qinglong Bay, and they want the Ding family wiped out!"

Ding Yijin said with a wry smile.

"When a new king ascends the throne, he will inevitably establish his authority by relying on the authority of the old king. When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact!"

"Seventh Brother, your burden is heavier than ours!"

However, Ding Yixuan was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Once these cultivators had their eyes on them and they were with their clan members, there was no way they could escape!
They fled and fought their way through, bleeding and dying all the way.

More and more members of the clan fell on the road.

He himself was also at his last gasp.

The elixirs and talismans were exhausted, and the spiritual power was depleted.

I've managed to hold on until now only because of sheer willpower.

Ding Yixuan looked desperate and shouted, "The Ding family has never wronged you all, can't you give us a way out?"

"That's true. How about this, for the sake of our past relationship, throw your storage bags and magical artifacts over here, and we'll spare your lives!"

"It was said by the leader, a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator."

Ding Yixuan laughed in anger: "You villain, dream on!"

Without their magical artifacts, they are nothing more than lambs to the slaughter.

"Ding Qi, we're offering you a way out, but you won't take it! Then don't blame the brothers!"

At that moment, a surprised voice suddenly rang out from the Ding family members.

"Seventh Uncle, we're saved! Master Shen is ahead!"

Ding Yixuan's spirits lifted.

On a hillside a dozen feet ahead, beneath an ancient tree, Shen Xuan, dressed in green, held the Emei Dagger of Water Dividing in his hand, coldly glancing at the scene.

A powerful, suffocating sense of oppression enveloped us.

"Watch out, it's the talisman master Shen Xuan!"

"This person was defeated by the Tribulation Cultivator Black Wind; he's not someone to be trifled with!"

"So what! There are so many of us, why would we be afraid of a mere talisman master!"

"If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring! With the Ding family's blood on your hands, you must never let the tiger return to the mountain!"

“Well said! I heard that the Crimson Rainbow Sect has offered a bounty on the Ding family cultivators! Perfect, we can take their heads and claim the reward.”

The pursuing cultivators quickly reached a consensus and continued their pursuit.

At this moment, the Ding family members climbed up the hillside and hid behind Shen Xuan.

Ding Yixuan was the last one to climb up.

"Shen Xuan, your kindness and virtue are unforgettable for the Ding family, and we will surely repay you!"

Shen Xuan sighed softly.

"Run away!"

"I can only hold them off for a while." Ding Yixuan knelt down, prostrated himself, and kowtowed several times.

Then, he stood up.

"Those under twenty, split up and escape! Those over twenty, stay together and help Master Shen cover our retreat!"

Shen Xuan was stunned.

That's not what he meant.

There were more than twenty pursuers below.

There were only four or five late-stage Qi Refining cultivators; the rest were mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

In his eyes, they were utterly vulnerable.

Shen Xuan originally intended to send the Ding family members away, kill these desperate criminals, and rob them of their belongings.

Unexpectedly, Ding Yixuan thought he was fighting to the death for the Ding family.

She actually wanted to fight alongside him.

To be honest, Shen Xuanzhen is not the kind of person who is all about righteousness and awe.

In the [Insight Technique], the cultivation level of these people is completely revealed.

With the support of talents such as [Critical Strike], [Iron Bones], [Invisibility], and [Concealment], he really didn't take these people seriously.

"Stay here!"

After uttering those words, Shen Xuan's body vanished into thin air.

Where is Shen Xuan?

Ding Yixuan was startled.

"Don't worry! Master Shen has gone to kill the enemy for you!" Zhao Chunsheng's lazy voice came from behind.

The voice just fell.

The monk at the very front suddenly stopped.

"puff!"

A sharp point pierced his brow, and a cold blade emerged from the back of his head.

He stared wide-eyed, opened his mouth as if to say something, with an expression of disbelief.

The body shook.

He collapsed to the ground like a pile of mud.

It's not just him.

The next moment, several cultivators beside him, just like him, were inexplicably struck between the eyebrows by a cold blade, collapsing to the ground.

A late-stage Qi Refining cultivator hiding in the middle was shocked.

"It's Shen Xuan! He used an invisibility spell!"

The pursuing cultivators quickly activated their protective talismans and focused their attention on defense.

However, the cold light easily pierced through various protective talismans, flying like lightning and instantly penetrating the foreheads of many nearby cultivators.

Kill with one move.

"No!"

A late-stage Qi Refining cultivator activated a protective spiritual shield, holding a large sword-like magical weapon horizontally in front of his forehead.

A cold star suddenly appeared, and sparks flew.

The swordsman retreated repeatedly, finally managing to block the deadly blade.

"it's here!"

Amidst the fluctuations of spiritual energy, Shen Xuan's figure appeared.

The other late-stage Qi Refining cultivators quickly surrounded them.

However, the Emei Dagger in Shen Xuan's hand suddenly grew to a length of one zhang (approximately 3.3 meters).

With a gentle wave, like a gust of wind sweeping away fallen leaves, he sliced ​​all the dozen or so cultivators around him in half.

Some cultivators used defensive magic weapons, but they still couldn't withstand Shen Xuan's casual strike.

It is comparable to the spiritual power of a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator.

The bonuses from the [Critical Strike] and [Iron Bones] talents.

Shen Xuan's casual strike was comparable to that of someone in the early stages of Foundation Establishment.

He used the invisibility spell not because he was afraid of being attacked.

Rather, they were afraid the children would scatter and flee.

After all, it would be difficult for him to catch more than twenty people all at once when he was chasing them all.

But things are different now.

They all gathered together and surrounded him in the center.

He wielded the Water-Splitting Emei Dagger with wide, sweeping movements, unleashing the [Water Condensation and Edge Transformation Technique].

Those cultivators in the mid-stage of Qi Refining, whether they had magical artifacts or protective talismans, were easily destroyed like tofu in the face of Shen Xuan's attacks.

With his full power unleashed, Shen Xuan was like a ghostly demon, with several cultivators falling every breath.

Wherever it passed, the nearby cultivators were all split in two.

Of the twenty-odd cultivators, only five remained in a matter of breaths.

They were all at the late stage of Qi Refining, and with their magical artifacts, they could barely withstand a casual strike from Shen Xuan.

Only then did Shen Xuan stop and smile.
