Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 262: Chapter 53 Qianyu Lake, Chess Player!_3

At this very moment.

Boom!

In a nearby forest, countless bamboos grew crazily, twisting and spreading towards the sky, like a pair of large hands extending out from the forest. They reached out with astonishing speed, headed straight for the Incense-Burning Dao Cultivator!

Hua Meng was stunned!

Meanwhile, the Incense-Burning Dao Cultivator couldn’t help but show a slight change in complexion, but immediately revealed a hint of cold sneer.

“A mere ordinary spell…”

With one thought, his soul leapt out of his spiritual government like a sword, slashing forward!

Countless bamboo branches were instantly cut off at the waist!

“A clown dares to show off in front of me!”

“Come out!”

The Incense-Burning Dao Cultivator sneered, preparing to capture the cultivator who dared to offend him in one fell swoop.

However, the sneer on his face froze before it had a chance to fade away!

“Th-this is…”

Behind the severed bamboo branches, a massive wave of ice was coming in with a blast!

Followed by flames and earth…

Wave after wave.

Spell after spell!

Like an unstoppable tide, it was overwhelmingly daunting!

The advantages of a Qi Refining Practitioner mobilizing the Five Elements Spell was thoroughly demonstrated!

This early-stage Incense-Burning Dao Cultivator hadn’t even had a chance to react when he was already submerged by these spells…

Whoosh!

Hua Meng only felt a flash before his eyes, and a somewhat familiar figure appeared out of the flowing light.

Upon seeing this figure, Hua Meng was immediately startled:

“El-Elder Wang?!”

The newcomer was Wang Ba.

Without time for explanations, he reached out to grab the storage bag falling from mid-air, quickly glanced at the remaining three people and hurriedly said:

“Go!”

Having said this, he sped away with the three of them. The entire process was completed in just a few moments!

Meanwhile.

Outside the East Saint’s residence, to the south.

Yutang Mountain.

In the basin of the mountain, a massive formation concealed the entire basin. From the outside, it seemed no different from an ordinary basin.

There were short but straight trees growing in the basin.

On the crowns of these trees, leaf after leaf carried colorless water droplets.

A middle-aged cultivator, shrouded in scarlet, with a half-crescent-shaped Magic Tool hanging around his waist and emitting a mysterious and strange aura, stood quietly in front of these trees.

He held in his hand a Magic Tool that was extremely similar to the Spirit Ear obtained by Wang Ba earlier, yet slightly different. His expression was slightly cold.

“Liu Yazi is dead.”

“It appears to be the doing of the person using Tianyi’s Spirit Ear. Only he was closest to Liu Yazi.”

“Such audacity!”

At his side, a cultivator in ochre robes couldn’t help but step forward and say, “Envoy Zheng, why not let Servant Cultivators capture this person, and let him die a torturous death.”

The middle-aged cultivator shook his head slightly:

“The only Magic Tool that can track this person’s aura is this one. At this critical moment, I’m not confident in delegating it to others.”

“Moreover, there’s a high possibility that this person is the same nameless cultivator who wounded Li Canghai with Sword Dao not long ago. Letting him roam in our territory poses a great risk. Besides, an average person might not be able to handle him either.”

“What? The same person who injured Envoy Li?”

The cultivator in ochre robes couldn’t help but look surprised.

In the minds of these Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Li Canghai was a formidable figure, second only to the man before them. His combat power was unmatched. Even today, when the Yin God sect is in decline and cannot provide empowerment to cultivators, he is one of the few Class II cultivators in the Kingdom of Immortals who can be named.

Being able to injure Li Canghai and escape unscathed indicates that, even if this person can’t beat Li Canghai, he is likely on the same level as him.

Thinking of this, the cultivator in ochre robes couldn’t help but be more serious, and at the same time, he also couldn’t help but express his concern:

“Envoy Zheng, it’s not that the Servant Cultivator is questioning you, but…since Envoy Li was injured by this person, you…”

“Haha, I’m not the same as Li Canghai.”

The middle-aged cultivator didn’t get angry at the question, but responded with a calm laugh, “Li Canghai has a wide range of skills, and he is excellent in each one of them. Additionally, he holds a Class III Magic Tool and Class III Spells, so he has measures to deal with the majority of enemies. Even if he can’t win, he will not lose badly. However, he is particularly troubled when facing one type of person.”

“Which type of person?”

The cultivator in ochre robes couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.

“The person who takes a single path to the extreme.”

The middle-aged cultivator replied seriously, “The one who slashed Li Canghai with a single sword strike is likely someone who excels at Sword Dao. Sword Dao itself is a path of killing, and those who master it are naturally far beyond comparison with just being ‘excellent’.”

“Of course, people who reach the extreme usually do not have any spare capacity. The nameless cultivator was able to injure Li Canghai with a single strike, but he chose to flee afterward. Either he could only use this single strike and didn’t have any strength left afterward, or this strike wasn’t his own but was something a stronger individual left him as a lifesaving measure.”

The cultivator in ochre robes was immediately shocked at these words.

If a sword left to someone else could injure Li Canghai, wouldn’t anyone who personally came here be invincible below the Golden Core State?

“Haha, there’s no need to worry, even if he excels at Sword Dao, as long as he is below the Golden Core State, I fear nothing.”

The middle-aged cultivator laughed.

The cultivator in ochre robes was at first puzzled, then startled, his eyes filled with excitement, “Envoy Zheng… could it be that you have already cultivated a Class III Yin Ghost?!”

“You are quite clever.”

The middle-aged cultivator slightly stroked his beard, without showing too much pride.

To him, this nameless cultivator was just a minor irritation.

What the Yin God Cultivators here are about to face is a sect with a Class IV cultivator, and…

The entire Chen State!

Yes, they are not just aiming to reclaim the “Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream”, but they definitely won’t let go of the succulent piece of meat that is Chen State!

After all, according to the message brought by the Class III Divine Envoys, the Kingdom of Immortals had been successful, and had conquered Wei State, which is not far from Chen State.

After their Yin God Sect takes over Chen State, they will be able to echo the ‘Snake God’ Sect in Wei State. Afterward, both sects can exert effort in tandem, and easily take over the countries in the middle.

“Ha, these sects of Chen State think we’re all fools, even wanting to use our Yin God Sect cultivators as chess pieces?”

The middle-aged cultivator sneered.

“When the time comes, you will know who is the true chess master!”
