Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 62 Cloud Abyss Immortal City (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

"Wife, I'll hold them off. You take Ruo'er and run!"

The male cultivator, at the eighth level of Qi Refining, was struggling to stay afloat, with several bloody welts on his body and his magical artifact's spiritual light dimming. He shouted hoarsely.

The beautiful woman was about forty years old, still charming, and had reached the sixth level of Qi cultivation.

My son is fifteen or sixteen years old and has reached the second level of Qi Refining.

The two masked male cultivators, both at the eighth level of Qi Refining, each wielded their magical artifacts, forcing the couple into a series of defeats.

"Tsk tsk, what a beautiful woman! If you surrender and become my slave, serve me well, I'll spare your life!"

One of the cultivators unleashed a large sword-shaped magical weapon, easily shattering the protective talisman the beautiful woman had conjured.

"Hurry up, what are you dawdling for! There are plenty of women in Tianxiang Pavilion!"

The man in the black-masked mask rebuked him with displeasure.

"Okay, big brother!"

The cultivator unleashed his full magical power, about to slay the beautiful woman.

Sudden.

A sound of breaking through the air was heard.

A flash of cold light, swift as lightning, struck the cultivator's broadsword.

With a "clang," the broadsword was knocked away, saving the beautiful woman.

"Miss!"

The male cultivator mustered his remaining strength and desperately fought off his opponent to protect his wife.

However, the expected attack did not occur.

The three masked cultivators all looked behind him.

A monk in blue robes flew over swiftly.

"Fortunately!"

The one emitting a cold glint was Shen Xuan, who had just arrived.

He happened to save the beautiful woman Xiu.

"Black Wind, shouldn't we settle our score?" Shen Xuan said coldly.

The mask can only conceal vision and prevent divine sense from probing.

However, Shen Xuan possessed the talent of "Insight," easily discerning the aura emanating from Hei Feng.

"Hey, you know who the boss is, yet you still dare to meddle?" One of the masked cultivators revealed a fierce glint in his eyes.

"Very well, they've come to you willingly. If you were..."

Before he could finish speaking, a flying sword suddenly appeared, emitting a sharp sword cry. A cold ice dragon flashed by like a startled swan, streaking across the sky like lightning, instantly piercing his heart and creating a bloody hole the size of a bowl, with blood splattering everywhere!

He did not react until he died.

The other masked cultivator was slightly better.

He raised his shield-like magical artifact and held it in front of him.

The icy dragon suddenly spun back, circled around the back of his head and neck, and his large head flew into the sky.

the other side.

Shen Xuan's flying sword had just appeared.

The black wind then transformed into a cloud of black mist and fled.

"Still trying to escape!"

Shen Xuan snorted coldly.

A solidified ice dragon appeared on the Azure Water Sword and suddenly flew away.

It struck first, hitting the black wind hidden in layers of black mist.

After using the [Insight Technique], Shen Xuan was able to clearly locate the Black Wind's position.

Black Wind simultaneously summoned two superior magical artifacts, the Vajra Ring and the Golden Rainbow Sword, one for offense and one for defense, struggling to hold on.

However, a cold ice dragon solidified once again from Shen Xuan's Azure Water Sword, circling around and attacking his back.

Black Wind quickly activated his spiritual energy shield.

"Pfft!"
The icy blades formed from the Frost Dragon pierced directly through Black Wind's body.

The spiritual energy shield of a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator is as fragile as paper and easily destroyed!
"Ding"!
Without divine guidance, both the Vajra Ring and the Golden Rainbow Sword fell to the ground.

Black Wind looked down at his pierced heart and muttered to himself in disbelief.

"So strong..."

He then collapsed to the ground and died instantly.

He never imagined that Shen Xuan's combat strength would increase so dramatically in just two years.

Even if they weren't on the river, they could kill him instantly.

From the moment Shen Xuan appeared until he killed the three Tribulation Cultivators, only a few breaths had passed.

With his current strength, even without a water source nearby, killing an ordinary Qi Refining Perfection cultivator would be a piece of cake.

Then, Shen Xuan skillfully put away the three people's storage bags and magical artifacts.

Then he unleashed a fireball talisman, burning the three corpses of the cultivators to ashes.

The family of three stared blankly at Shen Xuan.

Finally, the male cultivator mustered his courage and stepped forward.

"Zou Yunlong of Qingming Mountain greets my benefactor."

Shen Xuan didn't expect them to repay the favor. Saving them was just a favor he did.

"The three of you, pretend you've never seen me. Don't mention me to anyone!"

After saying that, his figure gradually disappeared into the void.

……

An hour later.

A small flying boat pierced the sky, hovered in the air for a while, and then stopped in a hidden formation.

Two masked monks of similar build stepped off the flying boat.

The man on the left quickly located the place where Black Wind and his men had destroyed the bodies and covered their tracks, using hand seals.

With a flick of his long sleeves, dust suddenly billowed up, revealing the ashes of Black Wind and his two companions.

He glanced at the ashes, snorted coldly, and said with icy eyes, "Black Wind has fallen."

The other person seemed somewhat skeptical: "Black Wind has reached the peak of Qi Refining and possesses several high-grade magic artifacts. Who killed him?"

"Such powerful water elemental energy, and sword energy too!"

Beneath the mask, the man's crimson eyes gleamed, as if he were seeing something subtle.

"Water-based swordsman!"

He came to a conclusion.

Then, he looked towards the direction of Yunyuan Immortal City.

"Let's go back and report to the head of the family."

The two exchanged a glance, boarded the flying boat, and flew towards Cloud Abyss Immortal City.

……

On the flying boat, Shen Xuan checked the storage bags of the three cultivators.

He used his divine sense to erase the auras of the three people.

Subsequently, some suspicious items were destroyed.

Store away the magical artifacts such as the Golden Rainbow Sword and the Vajra Ring.

Currently, he has thirteen high-grade magical artifacts that he can no longer use.

Hei Yun alone possesses four high-grade magic artifacts and three mid-grade magic artifacts.

It is worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.

Even at a discount, it can still sell for five or six thousand spirit stones.

It will take some effort to sell them all.

Black Wind truly lives up to his reputation as the leader of the Tribulation Cultivators.

There are more than three thousand spirit stones.

The remaining items could probably be exchanged for two or three thousand spirit stones.

There was even a map of the Water Palace Secret Realm inside.

I don't know if it's true or not!
Judging from the marked location, it is clearly near Yunyuan Immortal City.

Shen Xuan casually put it away.

He had no interest in exploring the secret realm of the Water Mansion.

"Golden belt for murder and arson!"

Shen Xuan took out two mid-grade magic artifacts and some elixirs and talismans.

"This is for Fellow Daoist Zhao. Fellow Daoist Jiang, please keep it safe for him!"

"Thank you, Master Shen."

Jiang Xueqi accepted it with a smile.

……

The airship was getting slower and slower.

In sight, a celestial city stretching for hundreds of miles appeared, surrounded by countless spiritual lights, colorful and dazzling.

Among them, the azure-blue water spirit is the most concentrated.

This is the Cloud Abyss Immortal City.

Adjacent to the islands of the East China Sea, it is home to 100,000 cultivators and serves as the eastern barrier for the Azure Water Sect.

The Azure Water Sect is a Golden Elixir sect, renowned for its water-based techniques.

Cloud Abyss Immortal City is built upon a third-order water spirit vein.

With a Core Formation cultivator in charge, and relying on a protective array, it can withstand attacks from third-tier demonic beasts and demonic cultivators.

Near the immortal city, the sound of air being torn apart could be heard one after another. Flying magical artifacts, flying swords, flying boats, spirit birds, and escape lights were constantly flying in as cultivators rushed over.

Most are in the mid-to-late stage of Qi Refining, but occasionally you can see Foundation Establishment stage.

At the gates of the immortal city, cultivators came and went in an endless stream.

Shen Xuan disembarked from the flying boat, left a communication talisman, and separated from Zhao Chunsheng's family to enter the city.

The two families will separate for the time being, and will contact each other privately after they have settled down in the city and rented a house.

Zhao Chunsheng understood his good intentions.

"You must not mention Master Shen in front of outsiders."
