Clan Cultivation: My Intelligence Updated Daily

This sound, like sweet spring water and honey, made Zhang Lingyu take a step forward without her even realizing it.

Fortunately, the two calming talismans played a significant role at this moment, instantly pulling him back to reality. After regaining his senses, he immediately used the "Rainbow Transformation Technique" to retreat to a safe position.

Realizing he had been under an illusion for a moment, Zhang Lingyu's back was already soaked with cold sweat. Looking at the woman in the distance, his eyes were full of fear.

"She woke up so quickly?"

Huan Xue'er was slightly surprised. Her "Six Desires Bewitching the Mind Technique" was of the fourth rank. Unless a cultivator had a particularly strong spiritual sense, even a peak Qi Refining cultivator would be stunned for a moment when facing her.

Fortunately, the spell had already taken effect. If the opponent hadn't regained consciousness thanks to the talisman, he would have ended up just like the other cultivators, completely at my mercy.

"If it doesn't work the first time, then let's try it a few more times. I refuse to believe it."

The woman casually tossed out a jade bead, and as the magical artifact lit up with spiritual light, the surrounding mist grew even thicker.

Zhang Lingyu immediately noticed the anomaly. If he could clearly sense the other party's location before using the "Dongxu Lingmu Technique", it was becoming increasingly blurry now.

Not only that, the sounds of the spirit pet puppet fighting with Song Feiyu in the distance gradually faded away, and after a while, there was no sound at all.

"This is troublesome."

Zhang Lingyu inwardly cried out in alarm, not expecting this demonic female cultivator to be so troublesome. At that moment, Huan Xue'er's alluring laughter echoed from all around the mist:

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, how powerful is my Mirage Pearl? It was taken from the belly of a second-tier Mirage Demon, and it's quite useful."

"A mirage demon?"

The mirage demons are sea monsters. The Linhai County of the Zhao State is close to the East China Sea, and the mirage demons are one of the larger groups among them. They are good at hiding and often use the mirage pearls in their bodies to release mirage energy to lure other monsters into their trap and become their food.

Many cultivators extract the mirage beads from his body to make magical artifacts, which, when used in conjunction with illusion techniques, can be very effective.

The one Huanxueer took out now appears to be of high or excellent quality in the Qi Refining stage.

"However, this also shows that this woman's status in the Thousand Illusions Demon Palace is not low."

Zhang Lingyu's eyebrows gleamed with light. He had already pushed his "Penetrating Void Spirit Eye Technique" to its limit before he could barely pinpoint Huan Xue'er's location.

He knew he couldn't delay, otherwise he would inevitably be put on the defensive if the other party used illusion magic again.

He quickly affixed several calming talismans, then reluctantly took out a second-tier high-grade talisman.

【Awakening Charm】.

This talisman can invigorate the mind and prevent interference from external demons. As the talisman transformed into a beam of clear light and entered the space between the eyebrows, the spiritual eyes were activated again, and the surrounding mist gradually dissipated, making Huan Xue'er's figure in the distance clearer and clearer.

"It really worked."

A hint of joy finally appeared on Zhang Lingyu's face. Without hesitation, she flung out two more blood needles, and at the same time, her figure blurred, transforming into a streak of rainbow light as she swiftly fled towards him.

"Bang!"

With a crisp sound, the blood needle was once again blocked by the automatically protective red umbrella. However, this also interrupted Huan Xue'er's spellcasting. The woman was slightly surprised that even though she had used her trump card, the other party could still find her location.

In the blink of an eye, she swiftly retreated, drawing a blood whip from her waist and lashing it fiercely at Zhang Lingyu, who was hurtling towards her.

Because the attack was too hasty, Zhang Lingyu easily dodged it.

At the same time, he unleashed the [Junhong] sword, striking the red umbrella and producing a series of metallic clanging sounds.

Huan Xue'er reacted quickly, spun her red umbrella, and blocked the sword with her bare hands. But Zhang Lingyu's attack continued. He made a hand seal with his left hand and suddenly unleashed the Heavenly Thunder Breaking Seal!

"Boom!"

The lightning exploded, forcing the woman to retreat several steps. A scorch mark was also blasted onto the red umbrella. He seized the opportunity and once again unleashed his magic sword to strike the shaky artifact.

With a mournful cry, the spiritual light on the red umbrella dissipated, and it crashed to the ground from mid-air.

Huan Xue'er looked anxious and was about to wave her hand to recall the magic weapon when she realized that Zhang Lingyu had already closed in and was about to chop at her head. In desperation, she had no choice but to activate the talismans that she had previously attached to her body.

As soon as the talisman formed a spiritual shield, [Junhong] slashed fiercely at it with Gengjin sword energy. Instead of shattering, the attack was blocked solidly.

"Such a hard tortoise shell, this talisman must be of a high grade."

Zhang Lingyu was slightly surprised. Looking at the smug look on the woman's face, he was momentarily at a loss for what to do. He then said in a deep voice:

"Fellow Daoist, if you are willing to dissolve your body yourself now, I may consider letting your soul go to reincarnate."

"Zhang Chulan, you must be out of your mind to want me to kill myself. If you have the guts, then come and kill me."

Huan Xue'er spoke sarcastically. As a disciple of the Demon Palace, she concealed her appearance and played with the mortal world, manipulating cultivators of the same level at will. What a genius she was! Although she had suffered a temporary setback today, she still had many tricks up her sleeve.

Even if it means mutual destruction, it's still a hundred times better than suicide.

"Is that so?"

Zhang Lingyu calmly took out the third-grade low-level talisman and two blood spirit seeds, seemingly ready to throw them away at any moment.

Upon seeing these two methods, Huan Xue'er immediately lost her composure. Once these things are activated, no matter how many second-tier spirit talismans she has, they will be useless.

"Zhang Chulan, you're ruthless, using the same methods you use on a Foundation Establishment cultivator against me!"

The woman gritted her teeth and, without hesitation, pulled out a yellow talisman, which she activated instantly.

[Small Teleportation Symbol].

"That was decisive!"

Seeing that the other party had indeed used a small teleportation talisman, Zhang Lingyu couldn't help but marvel at how the other party could so ruthlessly abandon even their own magical artifacts and a puppet in order to escape.

However, he also breathed a sigh of relief. This situation was the best it could be. The other party was quite wealthy and might actually have the means to fight to the death. In that case, it might really be a case of losing more than you gain.

As Huan Xue'er left, the Mirage Pearl also disappeared. Compared to the red umbrella, the pearl was more precious.

As the mist inside the cave gradually dissipated, the walls were covered with sword marks and bloodstains, and due to the cramped space, many places had collapsed.

As for Song Feiyu, who was fighting against the puppet and the Blazing Spider, he had already fallen into a pool of blood.

Seeing that their master was alright, the two spirit pets quickly ran over. With the puppet assisting them, they were not harmed this time.

Zhang Lingyu did not send them back to the storage bag, but instead ordered them to guard the cave entrance together with the puppet.

Although Huan Xue'er has left, she herself has not suffered any major injuries. In order to prevent the other party from making a comeback, it is still best to be cautious.

Looking at the corpses of Gao Hong and the others, Zhang Lingyu simply used a little magic to pull their storage bags into her palm.

After doing all this, he looked at the low-grade Foundation Establishment alchemy furnace in the very center.
