Immortal Cultivation Families: The Rise of the Jinling Immortal Clan

"Alright, sell me that spirit stone then." Xia Yuhui seemed to have taken an interest and said it as if he were joking.

“Fellow Daoist, please don’t joke. This bone fragment is exceptionally hard; even ordinary magic weapons cannot damage it in the slightest. It is probably a bone fragment from a Foundation Establishment demon beast, and its value is far more than just one spirit stone.” The stall owner immediately refused.

Xia Yuhui sneered again, "So what if it's a bone fragment from a Foundation Establishment demon beast? What use is such a small bone fragment? I sincerely want to buy it, and two spirit stones is my limit. Otherwise, I won't buy it."

After saying this, he threw the bone fragments onto the carpet and turned to leave.

The stall owner quickly stopped him, smiling obsequiously, "I'll sell! I'll sell! Since you say so, I'll naturally give you face. I'm at a loss this time, selling to you. I hope you'll come back to me if you need to buy pills in the future."

Xia Yuhui: "No problem, no problem."

After saying that, he took out two spirit stones and handed them to the stall owner, then put the bone fragment directly into his storage bag.

After the money and goods were settled, the two left.

After that, Xia Yuhui took Xia Yufeng to stroll around the market for a while and purchased some usable refining materials.

During this time, Xia Yufeng also bought several medicinal herbs, saying that he would use them to make medicinal baths.

The two then set off again.

Wind and Rain Valley is an ordinary mountain in Shenjia County. However, because it is located on the only way to travel south from the market, evil cultivators often block the road and rob people here.

At that moment, five rogue cultivators dressed in various styles were quietly waiting in the woods. Before long, two cultivators appeared from the north and rushed over.

Several people instantly showed excitement, and one of the cultivators couldn't contain himself and wanted to step forward with his knife, but the middle-aged man in the lead stopped him.

"Wait, let me check their strength first."

"Fellow Daoist Hong, are you perhaps blind? Didn't you see that the newcomers are just two young men? At their age, how high could their cultivation be?" The cultivator who had been stopped immediately showed displeasure and said in a somewhat displeased tone.

Fellow Daoist Hong seemed not to hear what he said and continued to release his divine sense. In a short while, he discerned the approximate cultivation levels of the two.

If the measurements are accurate, both of these individuals are at the fifth level of Qi Refining, while two others in their group are at the sixth level of Qi Refining. Taking down these two would be a piece of cake.

Knowing the strength of the two, he no longer stopped the cultivator who was also at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

The cultivator immediately sneered, "Fellow Daoist Hong, how can you achieve great things by acting like this? You should hide behind us brothers. Don't worry, we'll give you a share later."

After saying this, he said in a deep voice to the three people behind him, "Gentlemen, the more you do, the more you get. Kill!"

After speaking, he led the three of them away at a rapid pace.

Xia Yuhui looked at the four evil cultivators who had come to their deaths, a hint of anticipation flickering deep in his eyes.

As the four approached, he transmitted his voice to Xia Yufeng, saying, "Eighth Brother, you can handle these four. I'll deal with the person hiding behind them."

Xia Yufeng nodded in acknowledgment, then took out the mid-grade magic weapon iron rod that Xia Yuhui had refined for him and went to meet it.

Xia Yuhui realized that there was no need to continue pretending, so he immediately took off on his sword and flew towards the direction of the hidden cultivator.

The cultivator who was hiding saw that Xia Yuhui had actually broken through the shackles of cultivation and attacked him on his sword.

He immediately opened his mouth in surprise, "These two are despicable and shameless, actually hiding their cultivation level," he cursed, realizing he had kicked a hornet's nest.

He immediately fled backwards, never even considering offering any help to the four cultivators.

However, with his mere Qi Refining Level 6 cultivation level escape technique, how could he possibly outrun a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator who could fly on a sword? In less than ten breaths, he was caught up.

Knowing he had nowhere to escape, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed desperately, "Senior, spare my life! Senior, spare my life! This is the first time I have done such a despicable thing. If you are kind enough to let me go, I will definitely repent and make amends in the future, and I will offer you compensation that will satisfy you."

Xia Yuhui: "Hmph, evil cultivator, shut up. Slaying demons and eliminating evil is the duty of the righteous path. Today you will die."

After saying this, he summoned more than a dozen fire snakes.

Seeing that Xia Yuhui had no intention of letting him go, the cultivator suddenly stood up, took out a high-grade talisman from his storage bag, and threw it out.

In an instant, an ice pillar materialized, completely blocking the fire serpents, and without any hesitation, it went straight for Xia Yuhui.

Xia Yuhui remained calm and composed. When the ice pillar approached, he immediately lifted the volcano and shattered the ice pillar in one fell swoop. Then, he picked up the flying sword he had just refined and used the Flowing Light Sword Technique to attack the cultivator as fast as lightning.

However, when he saw the situation below, he was shocked and quickly retreated. He saw more than a dozen spells attacking him like a storm, and he had no choice but to dodge hastily.

When he looked at where the cultivator was, he saw more than a dozen iron monkeys surrounding him, and they were preparing spells.

Upon seeing this, Xia Yuhui's expression instantly turned solemn. He hurriedly used his divine sense to scan Xia Yufeng's direction. Only after seeing that the four people had been almost completely killed by Xia Yufeng did he breathe a sigh of relief.

It seems that only this cultivator has mastered the art of puppetry.

Seeing so many puppets, Xia Yuhui was also filled with excitement. Since that cultivator could control so many puppets, he must be able to refine them.

If he could learn the method of creating puppets with his divine sense, his strength would surely reach a new level.

The cultivator said, "I wonder if you, fellow Daoist, would spare my life today? I will certainly give you a generous compensation."

He knew that the cultivator in front of him was no good person, so he had even brought out his puppet beasts. But no matter how many puppet beasts he had, he could not gain any advantage over this person.

However, having spent many years in the cultivation world, he had some experience and didn't believe this person would fight him to the death.

As expected, Xia Yuhui immediately said, "Alright, I can let you go, but you must tell me the method of making puppets."

"Fellow Daoist, are you perhaps mocking me?" The cultivator's expression changed drastically in an instant, his face filled with disbelief.

He would never give up such a means of livelihood just because of a few words from Xia Yuhui.

Xia Yuhui: "If that's the case, then killing you, my fellow Daoist, is the same thing."

After saying that, he no longer held back and instantly took out three magical artifacts at the same time, heading straight for the cultivator.

Seeing this, the cultivator no longer maintained his previous politeness and immediately activated more than ten puppets to attack Xia Yuhui.

After exchanging blows with the dozen or so puppets for a short while, Xia Yuhui realized that these puppets were all of low quality. Although there were many of them, they did not pose much of a threat to him.

However, this only serves as a restraining force. The most crucial element is the cultivator himself, who possesses a completely black demonic artifact. If struck by it, the outcome would likely be dire.

In the midst of the fierce battle, Xia Yuhui suddenly found a good opportunity and immediately stopped holding back, unleashing two crimson lightning bolts that destroyed six puppets. Then, he quickly approached the cultivator and threw the volcano directly at him.

Because the surrounding puppets had just finished casting their spells and were still in the cooldown phase, the cultivator had to bear this blow alone. The cultivator immediately took out another talisman, activated it, and threw it at Xia Yuhui, instantly forming another ice pillar.

That's right, it's an ice pillar talisman again.

The volcano and the ice pillar symbol collided again in an instant.
