Rebirth of a Reincarnated Immortal Cultivator

As soon as he finished speaking, a ripple appeared in the void. Behind Xiao Qianjue, a figure in cyan robes materialized and slammed down the Black Jade Heavy Sword in his hand without hesitation, landing on the golden light shield.

At this moment, Han Li's hair was flying wildly, and a layer of red light was mixed in with the blue light surrounding him. The effect of the Giant Strength Talisman was brought into play, causing Han Li's physical strength to surge. With just this one strike, he sent Xiao Qianjue flying more than ten feet away.

At the same time, more than ten golden flying swords flew out simultaneously, fiercely attacking the golden light shield around Xiao Qianjue. Under Han Li's fierce attack, the golden light shield emitted a slight cracking sound, and countless tiny cracks quickly spread out.

Han Li was overjoyed at this and darted away in a flash.

Xiao Qianjue's face was icy cold. He never expected that this rogue cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Refining would be so troublesome.

Startled, Xiao Qianjue was shocked by Han Li's speed, but he still managed to summon a small black shield and stack it in front of him to block. He then quickly retreated and used a technique to condense a golden sword blade several meters in size, which he then thrust out at the charging Han Li.

With two "pfft" sounds, Han Li sidestepped the golden sword, his speed showing no sign of decreasing.

At the same time, with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen fireballs formed from fireball talismans flew out and landed on the golden light shield, arriving first despite being delayed.

Under the relentless bombardment of high temperatures, the already dilapidated Golden Shield shattered completely.

Han Li was surrounded by swirling sword shadows as he unleashed the Nine Turns Wandering Body Sword technique, sending out twenty-four sword shadows that attacked Xiao Qianjue from all directions.

At this moment, Xiao Qianjue tightly gripped the top-tier magic weapon, the Dragon Pattern Sword. His hair flew wildly, and his body turned an earthy yellow color, radiating dazzling light. With the interaction of earth and metal, a burst of golden light suddenly appeared.

"To actually force Xiao Qianjue to this point, this rogue cultivator's strength is indeed extraordinary!"

Upon seeing this scene, the Core Formation stage cultivators in the stands couldn't help but stand up, their eyes fixed on the two people fighting on the arena.

The technique Xiao Qianjue used was Zhen Yuanzi's self-created skill, the Thunderclap Technique.

This method can greatly enhance the power and quantity of the sword shadows, making it a truly top-tier technique.

Back then, Zhen Yuanzi used this method to kill two Core Formation stage cultivators, which made him famous.

Although Xiao Qianjue's understanding of this technique is not yet complete, it is more than enough in battles between Qi Refining stage cultivators.

Han Li narrowed his eyes upon seeing this; after a close-quarters exchange, he had not gained much of an advantage.

Like him, his opponent had mastered the martial arts of swordsmanship, and while his physical strength was not as great as his own when he used the Stone Skin Technique, it was not far behind.

Only because of the blessing of the Longevity Guide and the Spirit Gathering Array, in terms of recovery speed after consumption, even the other party's flattery can't compare to his own. Thinking of this, Han Li breathed a slight sigh of relief.

After a close-quarters battle, both men retreated, swallowed several pills, and looked at each other with a hint of seriousness in their eyes.

“Fellow Daoist Hao, since I cultivated my Chongyuan Ruyi Body to the first level of perfection, I have had few rivals. But seeing you today, I realize what it means to have people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens.”

"Physically speaking, I am indeed inferior to you."

Xiao Qianjue wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and spoke slowly.

"Fellow Daoist's supernatural powers are extraordinary. If we continue fighting like this, it will be difficult to determine a winner. Why not settle the matter with one move?"

Han Li lowered his eyes, his gaze fixed on the man in the golden Taoist robe before him.

"it is good!"

Xiao Qianjue pondered for a moment, then nodded.

Within his body, a powerful sword intent burst forth. With the blessing of the Thunderclap Technique, his aura surged, making him resemble a wild beast bathed in golden light, his terrifying presence shaking the entire plaza.

At this moment, Xiao Qianjue did not use the top-level magic weapon Dragon Pattern Sword, but instead used the top-level talisman flying sword that he used before, contrary to his usual practice.

With the support of the surging sword intent, the spiritual sword shone brightly. The metal-attribute spiritual energy was injected, making the light extremely dazzling. It transformed into a giant golden blade several meters in size, hovering in mid-air above the head.

Seeing this, Han Li brandished his Black Jade Heavy Sword, activating the Purple Sun Primordial Force and the Hidden Sword Technique. A vast amount of spiritual energy gathered and empowered Han Li, and sharp sword energy emanated from his body, enhancing the sword shadow formed by his sword control technique.

With over twenty sword energies imbued with spirit, the Black Jade Heavy Sword exuded an ancient aura like a mountain, so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.

By this point, the crowd in the stands was completely dumbfounded, utterly captivated by this spectacular duel.

"Sword intent gathers, break through!"

Xiao Qianjue shouted and flicked his fingers, sending the golden giant sword crashing down on Han Li like Mount Tai.

"Gathering Sword Technique!"

Without hesitation, Han Li let out a low roar, and his inner power surged forth. With the blessing of the Nine Revolutions Wandering Body Sword, he controlled the flying sword, his face pale, to charge towards the golden blade.

Two sword shadows, one large and one small, collided high in the sky. With a loud boom, the two sword shadows exploded completely, and the terrifying fluctuations of spiritual energy blasted the two people on the arena back.

Han Li had anticipated this, activating his Green Wood Shield, Mystic Light Shield, and Shield Talisman to block most of the energy impact.

Nevertheless, his clothes were torn apart by the rampaging sword energy. If it weren't for the protection of his tattered Taoist robe, his fate probably wouldn't have been much better.

As for Xiao Qianjue, as a successor of the Jin Hong Sword Sect, his offensive power is undoubtedly strong, but his defensive measures are far inferior to Han Li's.

The small black shield was instantly blasted away, and along with the golden aura surrounding it, it was completely torn apart by the sword energy.

With his physical body and recovery not as good as Han Li's, he coughed up a mouthful of blood and fainted on the spot.

Upon seeing this, a Foundation Establishment cultivator appeared on the arena in a flash, flicked his sleeves, and wiped away most of the rampant sword energy. Then, he carried the unconscious Xiao Qianjue away from the arena.

"Hao Le, number 132, versus Xiao Qianjue, number 23. Number 123 wins!"

Amidst the cheers of countless people, Han Li swayed as he stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and revealed a smile.

After this battle, he had entered the top three and qualified to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill.

This Xiao Qianjue is indeed formidable. If he had just used the Dragon Pattern Sword to unleash his accumulated sword technique, I would have been no match for him.

It's likely that the opponent was driven by a competitive spirit; otherwise, it would be very difficult to say who would win this battle.

Seeing that Han Li, at the tenth level of Qi Refining, had defeated Xiao Qianjue, at the twelfth level of Qi Refining, the Core Formation cultivators present looked at each other in disbelief, their eyes filled with strange expressions as they stared at the cyan figure standing on the arena.

"Formation, pills, talismans, supernatural powers, physical body, magic treasures—Xiao Qianjue's defeat in this battle was not unjust," Zhen Yuanzi sighed and slowly spoke.

"To achieve this level as a rogue cultivator is truly extraordinary. What, Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan, are you tempted?"

Fairy Xuanlian smiled, her beautiful eyes scanning Han Li up and down, and she nodded in agreement.

"Hehe, I didn't realize that this kid had such talent back then. If I had known, I should have taken him under my wing directly. Now, Old Man Cai has actually benefited from this."

Zhen Yuanzi muttered a few words, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his aged eyes.

When I first met Han Li, this kid was only at the third level of Qi Refining. How long has it been? He has reached the tenth level of Qi Refining and even defeated my beloved disciple at the Ascension Conference.

This naturally aroused his appreciation for talent.
