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

While Ling Daochen was fighting the old man, Jiang Xiaochuan had already followed the four White Lotus Cult members out of the forest and arrived at a village full of strange buildings.

The village is not large, with only a few hundred houses in total.

These houses are considered peculiar because, in addition to being uniformly gray and black, they are also long, thin, and twisted in shape, making them seem unsuitable for human habitation.

After entering this strange village, the four White Lotus cult members headed straight for the center.

When Jiang Xiaochuan arrived at the location, he discovered that there was a person sitting cross-legged in the void in this open space.

Upon seeing a Golden Light Realm expert appear, Jiang Xiaochuan immediately took out a Concealment Talisman, affixed it, and hid himself in one of the rooms to avoid being discovered.

Fortunately, Jiang Xiaochuan hid in time. The White Lotus Sect expert who was sitting cross-legged in the void immediately released his senses after seeing his four subordinates come to pay their respects. He carefully checked the surroundings and confirmed that no one was following him before slowly descending from the void.

"Greetings, Deputy Hall Master Hao!"

The four of them knelt down in worship.

Deputy Hall Master Hao glanced at the four of them indifferently and asked, "What brings you here in such a hurry?"

Then the one with the highest cultivation among the four recounted the entire story of how they surrounded and killed Miaoqin and the others, and how Miaoqin escaped from their encirclement.

Fearing blame, he quickly added, "Don't worry, Deputy Hall Master Hao! I've already ordered two people to give chase! That woman is seriously injured and there's absolutely no way she can escape again!"

The scene fell silent for a moment.

The four men didn't dare look at Deputy Hall Master Hao, burying their heads deep in their chests. Their blood seemed to freeze at that moment, and cold sweat had already soaked their backs.

“According to the rules of the church, the four of you should be sentenced to death,” Vice Hall Master Hao said in a calm tone. “However, this operation is extraordinary, so I will spare your lives for now.”

"Thank you very much, Vice Hall Master Hao!"

Upon hearing this, the four of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Judging by the time, there's still some time before the Blood-Drinking Array activates." Vice Hall Master Hao turned to look into the distance. "Our Holy Sect didn't have many disciples who infiltrated the secret realm this time. Since you four have made mistakes, then make amends by eliminating as many small fry as possible before the Blood-Drinking Array activates!"

"I will obey Vice Hall Master Hao's orders!"

The four responded in unison.

Not long after, the four of them left together with that Deputy Hall Master Hao.

Jiang Xiaochuan did not pursue them this time.

Following a Golden Light Realm expert is quite risky; it would be easy to expose oneself.

However, this tracking was not without its gains. From their previous conversation, it was clear that the White Lotus Sect, which had secretly infiltrated the secret realm, was hunting down unsuspecting righteous martial artists.

That Blood-Drinking Array sounds like a bad thing.

"It seems we need to be more careful with our next move to avoid getting ourselves into trouble."

After the others had completely walked away, Jiang Xiaochuan got up and left.

This time, he went in the opposite direction from the White Lotus Sect members.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Xiaochuan had been wandering in the secret realm for several days.

In the past few days, Jiang Xiaochuan encountered several more groups of White Lotus Cult members. Without exception, these White Lotus Cult members were either fighting with other martial artists or on their way to ambush other martial artists.

However, Jiang Xiaochuan only glanced at these situations from afar and did not step forward to save the martial artists who were being hunted.

After all, they chose to enter the secret realm themselves, so whatever dangers lie within, they must bear them themselves.

After several days of searching, Jiang Xiaochuan still found nothing, not even a trace of the treasure.

To avoid making a wasted trip, he had no choice but to settle for second best and casually picked a few hundred-year-old herbs and put them away.

On this day, Jiang Xiaochuan happened to arrive at a beautiful spot next to Emerald Lake.

To be honest, he had traveled to many places during his days in the secret realm, but this emerald lake in front of him was the most beautiful of them all.

"Such a beautiful view, who knows what treasures might be hidden inside!"

Jiang Xiaochuan thought about it more and more and felt that this was possible. He immediately perked up and prepared to search the surrounding area thoroughly.

Just as he was about to take action, a slight tremor suddenly came from the ground. Immediately afterwards, a seven-colored ray of light shot into the sky from afar, directly covering most of the secret realm.

"This is—a priceless treasure has appeared in the world?!"

Jiang Xiaochuan stared wide-eyed at the shimmering, multicolored clouds in the sky, his heart filled with both surprise and joy.

The moment it was born, it caused such a great commotion; this treasure must be extraordinary!

"Go take a look! If you can snag this treasure, we'll be rich!"

Seeing that Jiang Xiaochuan was still standing there in a daze, Xiaoqing urged him impatiently.

"That makes sense! Let's go take a look!"

With that, Jiang Xiaochuan set off and flew towards his target location.

After flying a dozen or so feet, Jiang Xiaochuan's excited expression suddenly changed, and he instantly dodged to the side.

Just as he dodged, a powerful burst of true energy struck, blasting a deep crater into the spot where he had just been standing.

"He dodged it?"

"I didn't expect there to be one fish that slipped through the net here!"

"Take care of the person quickly so we can get there in time."

As they were speaking, three young men dressed in white robes, who looked almost identical, flew over and surrounded Jiang Xiaochuan.

Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at the three people and could clearly sense that these three people with identical appearances were not clones, but real people who truly loved each other.

Therefore, there is only one possibility: these three people are brothers born of the same mother.

All three were at the late stage of the Mountain-Shaking Realm.

"You three—are you from the White Lotus Sect?"

Jiang Xiaochuan looked at one of them and asked.

"Oh?"

The man narrowed his eyes, his cold voice tinged with surprise, "You actually know who we are, which makes it even more imperative to keep you alive!"

"Brother, why waste words with him! Kill him quickly, or the Holy Envoy will punish us if we're too late!"

Before he could finish speaking, the man made his move, transforming into a beam of white light and shooting towards Jiang Xiaochuan.

Judging from this stance, it seems they intend to smash Jiang Xiaochuan to pieces with their bare bodies.

Jiang Xiaochuan's eyes flashed, and he took out a jade talisman from his storage bracelet.

Not far away, the man he called "elder brother" saw Jiang Xiaochuan's actions immediately, his alarm bells ringing. He then shouted to his third brother who had made the move:

"Third brother, get out of the way! Watch out for what that kid is holding!"

The message was delivered, but the third brother had already arrived in front of Jiang Xiaochuan, and it was too late for him to retreat.

He could only watch helplessly as Jiang Xiaochuan smiled slightly at him and then shone the activated jade talisman in his hand towards him.

The jade talisman shattered, and an extremely powerful attack, far surpassing the power of the Mountain-Shaking Realm, erupted instantly.

"--No!!!"

With a scream that abruptly stopped, the man rushing towards Jiang Xiaochuan was instantly engulfed by the attack unleashed by the jade talisman.

"Third brother!!"

"Third child!!!"

The two brothers, who managed to dodge to a distance, stared at the scene of devastation before them, their eyes wide with fury.

There was no trace of their third brother left at the scene.

Under the attack of that Golden Light Realm expert, their third brother had already been blasted into ashes, leaving not even a trace behind.
