Immortal Cultivation Families: The Rise of the Jinling Immortal Clan

As Xia Yuhui fought and retreated, Ghost Head had no intention of continuing to follow him and immediately sped off in the opposite direction.

Seeing this, Xia Yuhui's lips curled into a cold smile, and he instantly unleashed a bolt of crimson lightning.

Hearing the crackling sounds behind him, the ghost head knew that lightning was coming towards it. It immediately turned its head, and the ghost head, which had been free of any black mist, suddenly had wisps of black mist rising up again.

It immediately let out several roars, channeling its full power to use its black energy to resist the crimson lightning. It had no intention of fighting to the death for Xia Yuhui, so it had already prepared a countermeasure.

Soon, the crimson lightning was successfully blocked by the dozen or so strands of black energy, and the ghost head instantly became listless, yet its face still couldn't suppress the look of wild joy. Just as it was about to turn and leave, another crackling sound came.

boom!

The ghost's head exploded instantly, turning into a cloud of black mist. The black mist quickly flew towards Xia Yuhui, and disappeared without a trace when it got close to him.

It turned out that Xia Yuhui had activated the Azure Soul Lamp to absorb this black energy. This ghost head, which was originally equivalent to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, instantly added a lot of soul power to Xia Yuhui's Azure Soul Lamp.

However, Xia Yuhui didn't care about any of this; at this point, his life was hanging by a thread.

He hadn't expected these monsters to be so powerful! He had used all his strength, and this was the best he could do. Now it was time for a life-or-death struggle.

Looking ahead, Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yuhui, who were both looking dejected, suddenly showed a resolute look on Xia Yuhui's face. He immediately took out the mid-grade bamboo sword from his storage bag again, held the volcano in his right hand, and crackled from time to time from his body riddled with holes. He had already pushed his body's potential to the limit. After preparing, he once again engaged in a fierce battle with the three-headed demon wolf.

This time, Xia Yuhui changed his strategy, no longer trying to kill the three demonic beasts, but instead continuing to attack the demonic wolf's legs.

However, he was soon beaten and covered in wounds. His last mid-grade flying sword shattered after withstanding several attacks. Fortunately, Xia Yuhui had a strong sense of consciousness, so this backlash was insignificant to him.

In the end, Xia Yuhui was forced to fight the three demonic beasts with his bare hands. Now, his body is strong enough to be just as capable as these demonic beasts in a life-or-death struggle.

Xia Yufeng, who was standing behind, could no longer bear it. Holding a magic sword, he rushed over.

This successfully lured away one of the demonic beasts for Xia Yuhui. Xia Yuhui acted decisively and frantically attacked the legs of the two demonic beasts. Soon, the sound of bones colliding with each other could be heard from time to time. The limbs of the two demonic beasts had been beaten beyond recognition.

However, Xia Yuhui's right arm was also fractured as a result, and he could no longer lift it.

However, Xia Yuhui had no regrets. Now only the last monster remained. If they could injure its limbs, they would have a chance to escape.

Just as Xia Yuhui was about to go to help, Xia Yufeng suddenly let out a scream. The demonic beast had already bitten Xia Yufeng's neck tightly and was still twisting wildly. Xia Yufeng could only use his hands to hold the demonic wolf's mouth shut.

Upon seeing this, Xia Yuhui immediately rushed over, used the volcano to blast the demon wolf away, and then quickly pulled Xia Yufeng up and fed him a few healing pills.

"Can you still run?"

Xia Yufeng pressed his hand against the bleeding wound and nodded firmly.

The two immediately began to flee, and Xia Guangzheng, seeing that the two had already escaped to his side, also immediately turned around and ran back. However, he was seriously injured at the moment, and as he ran, blood gushed out of his wounds.

Seeing this, Xia Yuhui immediately fed him a few more healing pills, then carried him on his back and quickly left.

Currently, Xia Yuhui's magical power is less than half of what it used to be. However, thanks to their physical cultivation advantage, he and Xia Yufeng can escape at a speed only slightly slower than if they used magical power to escape.

In a short while, the three successfully shook off the three demonic wolves behind them. Just as the three of them showed expressions of relief after surviving a disaster, a dark shadow suddenly darted out from the woods and lunged at Xia Yuhui's head. Xia Yuhui quickly turned his head to dodge.

boom!

A wolf's claw slammed into Xia Yuhui's shoulder blade, and several cracking sounds came from the bone. Xia Yuhui's face contorted in pain.

Just as the demon wolf was about to bite off Xia Yuhui's neck, a jet-black needle flew out from Xia Yuhui's sleeve and pierced straight into the demon wolf's body.

This was a poisoned needle that Xia Yuhui had been secretly carrying, and it only came in handy at this crucial moment.

However, this poison needle, which could have instantly killed a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, was forcefully withstood by the demonic beast. After a slight pause, it continued to bite Xia Yuhui.

Because the demon wolf was extremely fast, even if Xia Yuhui wanted to activate the volcanic artifact to counterattack, it would be impossible.

Just as he was about to give a wry smile, Xia Guangzheng, whom he was carrying, suddenly lurched and jumped straight into the wolf's mouth. The wolf's mouth was enormous, and it bit down hard on Xia Guangzheng's waist before pulling away and retreating.

Xia Yufeng immediately tried to make a move, but was slapped back. Although he was a body cultivator, he had only just reached the second level, which was equivalent to the mid-stage of Qi Refining, so he was completely unable to resist.

Just as Xia Yuhui was about to step forward to rescue Xia Guangzheng, Xia Guangzheng tossed him the storage bag, revealing a relieved yet complicated expression. He looked at the two of them with reluctance, then let out a deafening roar, "Keep an eye on my grandson for me... I'm off!"

He then unleashed several spells, causing his body to explode and instantly injuring the demon wolf, which fell to the ground. However, the wolf did not die; its mouth was simply blown off.

Xia Yuhui calmly caught the storage bag, while Xia Yufeng behind him instantly turned bloodshot and rushed forward recklessly. However, Xia Yuhui swiftly grabbed him by the neck, lifted him onto his shoulder, and sped away into the distance.

A dozen or so breaths later, the three demonic wolves finally arrived, and the four demonic wolves immediately gave chase again.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain. After the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, Xia Yuhui led Xia Yufeng out of their perception range.

Two days later, in a cave near the edge of northern Xinjiang, Xia Yuhui and Xia Yufeng were meditating to recover their magical power.

Last night, the two of them rushed to this mountain, carved out a cave, and have been meditating in the cave ever since.

Lacking any elixirs, the two had only recovered two or three tenths of their magical power, and their bodies were covered in wounds. Although the bleeding had stopped, it greatly affected their ability to fight.

Furthermore, the only magical artifact they possess left is the volcano in Xia Yuhui's hand. If they were to encounter another high-grade demonic beast, they would likely have no choice but to flee immediately. Clearly, their current situation is truly dire.

Just as the two were about to continue meditating and recover their magical power, a voice suddenly came from above: "Young friends, I am Yang Qilin, come out."

Xia Yuhui was startled and immediately released a wisp of divine sense to scan the sky, but found no one at all. Xia Yuhui did not doubt that he had made a mistake. Although he was worried about being discovered and had not used his full divine sense, it was impossible for an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator to hide so well.

It seemed the person in the sky was indeed Yang Qilin. However, Xia Yuhui couldn't spot anyone else, which made him uneasy. Xia Yuhui had reason to believe that Yang Qilin's appearance at this time might have another purpose?

After all, Guiyun Sect had given him a mission, and it was highly likely that they would use this opportunity to eliminate their family cultivators.
