Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality

Cheng Yao never expected that the argument between the two would ultimately leave him to make the decision, and he was stunned for a moment.

"Say it quickly!"

Seeing Cheng Yao remain silent, Li Murui began to urge him on.

Lu Yang then added, "Brother Yao, you don't need to worry too much. Just say what you think."

"I think--"

Cheng Yao organized his thoughts and looked at the two of them, saying, "If Lu Yang's jade pendant can really save our lives at a critical moment, then it's not impossible for us to escape right now."

"Although we were all knocked unconscious when we were brought here and didn't know where this secret room where we were being held was, if you listen carefully, you'll find that since we woke up, we've hardly heard any noise from outside. It's very quiet all around!"

"This shows that we are either in a sparsely populated village or in a remote forest or mountain. The enemy would never expect us to be able to escape, so they probably wouldn't have assigned too many skilled guards to watch over us. Therefore, under these circumstances, our chances of escaping are greatly increased!"

"Well said! That's what I think too!"

Li Murui nodded in agreement frantically.

Lu Yang was also persuaded by Cheng Yao's analysis, "--Okay! Then I'll give it a try!"

After speaking, Lu Yang began to concentrate and slowly circulate his internal energy.

Although he was unable to concentrate his internal energy into the jade pendant while his hands were bound, he could still release his internal energy completely, enveloping himself and the jade pendant together.

Upon sensing the flow of Lu Yang's true energy, Li Murui and Cheng Yao immediately focused their attention on Lu Yang.

As his internal energy circulated to a certain level, Lu Yang began to silently recite the incantation.

The next instant, the ordinary-looking jade pendant hanging on Lu Yang's chest emitted streaks of blue light under the gaze of Li Murui and Cheng Yao.

"This, this, this!"

Li Murui stared dumbfounded at the glowing jade pendant on Lu Yang's chest. She couldn't understand how such a miraculous method was achieved.

Although Cheng Yao appeared calmer than Li Murui, the shock in his heart was no less.

As the incantation ended, the light from the jade pendant on Lu Yang's chest grew brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire secret room.

Fortunately, it was daytime outside. If it were night, such unusual activity would have already attracted the enemy's attention.

Fortunately, the intense light emitted by the jade pendant did not last long, weakening in just a moment and coalescing into twelve cyan light arrows, hovering in front of Lu Yang.

The three stared blankly at the twelve arrows of light floating in mid-air before them, momentarily at a loss for words.

After a long silence, Li Murui clicked her tongue and said, "The Mr. Jiang you're talking about, could he be an immortal?"

As a princess of the Great Qian Dynasty, she was all too aware of the methods and strength possessed by Grandmaster-level experts. After all, her master was a veteran Grandmaster from the Imperial Academy.

Even a peak Grandmaster couldn't perform a technique like sealing a light arrow within a jade pendant. That's why she uttered those words after her initial shock.

Lu Yang shook his head. "I don't know either. My master rarely mentions Mr. Jiang to me."

Not only Li Murui, but even she herself felt a strong curiosity about this extremely mysterious and seemingly all-powerful Mr. Jiang.

But soon Lu Yang discovered that he had released the energy from the jade pendant, but how to use and command it was a bit of a challenge for him, as his master had not told him these things.

Lu Yang turned his gaze to the other two and said somewhat awkwardly:

"This is the first time I've used this jade pendant. I don't know how to make these twelve blue light arrows move."

Cheng Yao thought for a moment and then said, "You can try concentrating and thinking about it silently in your mind."

Lu Yang nodded, slowly closed his eyes, and began to try as Cheng Yao had instructed.

A moment later, the cyan light arrow that had been quietly floating in mid-air indeed started to move!

"Chengyao, you are truly a genius!"

Li Murui's eyes lit up instantly as she watched the slowly swaying light arrow.

Soon, under Lu Yang's control, the twelve light arrows transformed into twelve streaks of azure light, severing all the chains binding the three people in a few swift movements.

"—It's done!"

After regaining his freedom, Lu Yang was as excited as if he had discovered a new world.

But before the three could even feel happy, they heard the sound of a door opening outside.

"Oh no! Someone's coming!"

Cheng Yao quickly scanned the secret room and found that there was nowhere to hide.

"What are we afraid of? With Lu Yang's jade pendant, let's just fight him to the death!"

Li Murui rubbed her fists, looking ready to avenge her previous humiliation.

The next moment, the door to the secret room opened, and the middle-aged man who had captured the three walked in.

The middle-aged man came in only to force the three men to reveal their identities and purpose, but he never expected to witness them trying to escape from prison.

"How dare you! You managed to break free from this. Looks like I'll have to teach you a lesson!"

The middle-aged man sneered, slammed the door to the secret room shut, and prepared to cripple the three men's martial arts skills.

The middle-aged man was extremely fast, giving the three of them very little time to react.

At this critical moment, Lu Yang was unable to concentrate on controlling the light arrow behind him.

Just as Cheng Yao was about to grit his teeth and make a move to stop the middle-aged man, the light arrow behind Lu Yang suddenly started moving and shot straight at the middle-aged man.

"what?!"

The middle-aged man was shocked, never expecting that twelve streaks of azure light would suddenly appear behind Lu Yang.

Just as he was about to dodge, he discovered that his speed was far slower than the speed at which the light arrows were flying. In the blink of an eye, he was pierced through the heart by twelve beams of green light and died with his eyes wide open.

The light arrow vanished into thin air after instantly killing the middle-aged man.

The three of them looked at the middle-aged man's corpse and unconsciously swallowed.

The power of this light arrow was far more terrifying than they had anticipated!

A top-tier late-stage expert, who could kill instantly with a single move, was simply terrifyingly strong!

"Let's go quickly, or it will be too late if others realize something is wrong!"

Cheng Yao's words immediately brought the other two back to their senses.

The three immediately went to the door and quietly pushed it open. Seeing that there were no guards outside, they immediately jumped out and ran desperately in one direction.

The outside environment was almost exactly as Cheng Yao had expected; it was in a dense forest of unknown location.

Besides the secret room, there were several other rooms behind where they were imprisoned.

This must be one of the organization's strongholds, and there must be other experts there.

This situation was clearly beyond what the three of them could handle alone. So, their first thought after escaping was not how to fight back, but to get out, find help, call for reinforcements, and then wipe out the group in one fell swoop.
