Immortal Cultivation Families: The Rise of the Jinling Immortal Clan

Chapter 4: Killing Two Members of the Cai Family

A few days later, Xia Yuhui put down the book "True Explanation of Weapon Refining" and stepped into Tiger Fang Forest once again.

Upon arriving at Tiger Fang Forest, Xia Yuhui immediately concealed his presence, drew his Azure Light Sword, and slowly approached before crouching outside the defensive formation set up by the Cai family.

Originally, Xia Yuhui did not expect to gain anything today, but unexpectedly, the situation was completely different from what he had anticipated.

In the distance, two young men were riding two unique blue-gray horses belonging to the Cai family, stepping into the formation.

"They've finally arrived." Seeing this, Xia Yuhui's face lit up with joy, and he thought to himself.

Immediately, he slowly withdrew from the Tiger Fang Forest without emitting the slightest fluctuation of his aura, relying entirely on his legs to walk.

The next morning, the two teenagers who had entered the formation the night before rode out of it on their blue horses.

"Haha, Seventh Brother, now that this mission is complete, we'll get another five spirit stones."

"Stop fooling around, Fangchao. I've heard that last time, Big Brother and Uncle Xiang killed a member of the Xia family. Be careful now, lest you incur the Xia family's revenge." Another young man patted the grinning boy lightly and said in a deep voice.

"Hahahaha, Seventh Brother, how have you become so cowardly? Do those people from the Xia family even dare to seek revenge against my Cai family? Do they have the guts? Once their ancestor is gone, we will storm into the Xia family and cut off their lifeline, ending this 500-year-old feud."

"Hey! You're just a Qi Refining Level 5 cultivator. Don't be delusional. Be alert and stop talking. Go back to your family immediately."

After they had traveled more than ten miles out of Tiger Tooth Forest, they entered a lush forest.

Now that they were out of Tiger Fang Forest, the two were no longer as wary as before, and instead sat on their horses chatting and laughing.

However, just as they were talking animatedly, a dozen or so fiery snakes suddenly sprang out of the woods and pounced on the two of them.

Cai Fanghui was a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining. He reacted quickly and immediately took out a golden shield talisman and slapped it on his body. The talisman emitted golden light and blocked several fire snakes.

However, Cai Fangchao, who was at the fifth level of Qi Refining, was not so lucky. He was hit by seven or eight fire snakes and burned to nothing but bones and a storage bag.

Xia Yuhui didn't give Cai Fanghui a chance, and directly charged out with the Qingguang Sword and the flying sword given to him by his third uncle.

"The thief is so brave!"

Cai Fanghui angrily threw out two fire talismans, then drew his sword and charged. The two instantly clashed, using fire talismans, spells, and other attack methods. However, because their cultivation levels and techniques were similar, the fight became evenly matched. In the end, Xia Yuhui gradually suppressed Cai Fanghui, but he could not defeat him immediately.

Seeing that the fight was dragging on, Xia Yuhui pretended to flee without a fight. Cai Fanghui immediately tried to entangle him, but just as he was about to rush forward, Xia Yuhui turned around and unleashed a bolt of crimson lightning from his hand.

"Boom!"

Before she could even scream, Cai Fang's gray head was blown apart, and her body began to catch fire.

After killing the two, the Azure Soul Lamp in Xia Yuhui's sea of ​​consciousness suddenly vibrated and then flew out of Xia Yuhui's sea of ​​consciousness. The Azure Soul Lamp spun around and then drew out two wisps of green smoke from the two corpses before disappearing back into Xia Yuhui's mind.

Xia Yuhui was immediately shocked, but realizing that he couldn't stay in this place, he immediately used the Fire Serpent Technique to burn the two people's bones again. Then, he took the two storage bags and ran away quickly. As for the two blue horses, they had long since disappeared.

"Who is it!" That night, Cai Tingxiang got off his flying sword, looked at the traces of the fight around him, and roared angrily.

Inside the small wooden cabin with its array formation on Wulan Mountain, Xia Yuhui emptied all the items from his two storage bags.

He made a considerable profit from this transaction, obtaining more than a dozen bottles of Spirit Essence Pills for cultivation and several Fire Talismans.

However, these are not the most precious items. The truly priceless treasure is the spirit tree that the Cai family planted in Huyalai.

This tree was specially designed to provide fuel for refining weapons and alchemy. Based on the amount in his storage bag, it was worth at least two hundred spirit stones. He had truly made an ill-gotten fortune this time.

"As the old saying goes, a man cannot get rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot get fat without night grass. Hahahaha! The ancients were right."

However, Xia Yuhui felt that his greatest gain this time was not these valuables, but the Azure Soul Lamp in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Upon returning to his cabin, he tried several times to summon the Azure Soul Lamp in his sea of ​​consciousness, but to no avail, and eventually had to give up.

At this moment, he only knew that the Azure Soul Lamp could extract the souls of others, but he did not know whether this was a blessing or a curse for him. Helpless, he could only pack up all his belongings.

After everything was in order, Xia Yuhui immediately opened a bottle of Spirit Essence Pills and began cultivating.

As for converting these items into cash, it will take several more months.

If he were to sell these items now, he was certain the Cai family would trace it back to him. Although he wasn't afraid, it was better to avoid trouble.

Spring came and autumn went, the seasons changed, and more than a year passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Xia Yuhui woke up from his meditation, looked at the Spirit Essence Pill that had been used up, and gave a helpless bitter smile.

He has been cultivating diligently day and night, but his cultivation level remains at the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining. No matter how he cultivates, he makes no progress and seems to have fallen into the legendary bottleneck.

However, he didn't care; instead, he felt that he had a chance to achieve immortality. At this moment, he had already understood the effects of the Azure Soul Lamp, which was to extract the souls of others after their death and then slowly transform them into his own divine consciousness—its effects were truly astonishing.

Because of his identity as a transmigrator, his spiritual sense was extraordinary and exceptionally powerful.

When he killed someone last time, he was able to control two mid-grade first-tier flying swords at the same time to kill the enemy.

Now, his divine sense has been strengthened once again. He had tried before and was able to barely control the three flying swords in battle.

Moreover, due to his improved cultivation, the crimson lightning within his body has become increasingly powerful, and Xia Yuhui is now able to unleash two bolts of lightning simultaneously.

Therefore, his combat strength has now increased to another level. It can be said that he is no longer afraid of Cai Tingxiang of Tiger Fang Forest. In fact, if they were to face each other head-on, he would have a 50% chance of killing Cai Tingxiang.

Therefore, he plans to go to the market today to sell the items he obtained last time and then purchase a bottle of Breakthrough Pill to break through the bottleneck.

Panyun Market was founded by the Jin family, the largest family in Jinling County. A Foundation Establishment cultivator is stationed in the market year-round, and a second-order formation is set up within it.

It can be said that no force in Jinling County has the ability to break through this market town.

At this moment, Xia Yuhui was strolling through the market. He did not intend to go to the store opened by the Xia family, but instead set his sights on the store opened by Guiyun Sect, the true ruler of Jinling County and the surrounding six counties.

After all, what he was selling was stolen goods, and even if the Cai family did discover it, they would never dare to question Guiyun Sect.

After all, to put it bluntly, the four major families are nothing more than four lackeys kept by the Guiyun Sect. Every year, the four major families have to pay a huge tribute to the Guiyun Sect in order to establish themselves in Jinling County.

The same applies to the other prefectures controlled by Guiyun Sect; in fact, it could be said that the entire cultivation world is in the same situation.
