Chapter 1: When the father suffers humiliation, the son will surely avenge him

  A single Golden Elixir later stage cultivator's corpse puppet was already not an existence that two people could contend with, and now there was also this Bone Guard... The slightly plump Taoist and the old crone exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with despair and unwillingness. Even though the two of them had family assets far richer than those of ordinary Golden Elixir cultivators, at this moment various magical treasures, elixirs, talismans, and spell flags were almost completely depleted, and they had reached the end of their rope.

  "I, Liu, have been cultivating for over 300 years, and my life has been filled with endless killing and scheming. I've exhausted all my thoughts and efforts to survive until today. My old friends from back then have long since perished, and I'm already satisfied that I can live to this day. Even if I die today, I'll take you, this demonic creature, down with me!" The slightly chubby Taoist's face suddenly took on a strange, reddish hue, and his dull, lifeless eyes seemed to regain their luster, shining brightly once more. His Taoist robes rustled softly as they rose into the air, making a series of sharp cracking sounds, and his entire aura surged wildly upwards until it finally stabilized at the mid-Golden Elixir realm.

  Feeling the surge of spiritual energy within him, far surpassing his previous state, a powerful sensation filled his mind, yet the slightly chubby Daoist's face was etched with bitterness. Having shattered the Golden Elixir and burned his Yuan Shen, although he could gain immense power in a short period, once his spiritual energy dissipated and his divine consciousness was exhausted, his fate would be complete dispersal, equivalent to voluntarily giving up his qualification for reincarnation.

  "Golden Flower Daoist, although I have a mid-stage Golden Elixir cultivation at the moment, I am absolutely no match for this demon. If you retreat now, you will definitely escape death." After the shattered Golden Elixir burned his divine consciousness, the slightly fat Daoist glanced at the old woman with a faint gaze, and his spiritual pressure surged violently as he charged straight towards the spirit corpse.

  "Ah, well. The old woman's remaining lifespan was only a few decades anyway. This time, she suffered heavy injuries and lost more than half of her vital energy. I'm afraid that even this limited lifespan will be greatly reduced. She won't live to see the completion of the elixir for longevity." The old crone muttered to herself, her eyes gradually revealing a hint of venomous resentment. "You demon, if it weren't for your sudden interference, I would have already obtained the magical pill hidden here by the Demon Lord. By then, my lifespan would have increased greatly, and my cultivation would have surged. I even had a 20% chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm. All of this was ruined because of you. Today, I will give up any chance of prolonging my life, and I'll die with you as my scapegoat!"

  An old woman's eyes suddenly revealed endless cold light, her body eerily emitting endless dark black flames, and her face showed extreme pain.

  Void Fire, Burning Soul, Ghost Cultivation Secret Method!

  The void fire gradually dissipated, but the old woman's aura was crazily climbing upwards, and the resentful poison in her eyes was also getting thicker.

  "Liu Daoyou, I've come to help you!"

  Boom!

  After one Golden Elixir, two Golden Elixirs in the middle period, both parties shattered their Golden Elixirs and burned their divine consciousness and soul to exchange for sufficiently powerful strength. When they clashed, the collision of their powerful spiritual energy even caused the void to produce ripples, distorting it.

  "Master, they have entered your design. What should we do next?" Chu Kuang's eyes flashed with a few sparks of heat, and through the layer of light on his head, he could see everything that was happening outside.

  "Wait!" The woman's eyes also showed a rare hint of expectation, but after taking a deep breath, she was forcibly pressed down. The endless years of oppression had finally reached the point of breaking out, and no one could stop her, not even Buddha or God!

  Xiao Chen sat cross-legged outside the restrictive shield, slowly opening his eyes. A faint, shimmering light flashed across his clear face before returning to normal. His pitch-black, bright eyes were profound and boundless. With the help of the elixir, both his internal spiritual energy and divine consciousness had recovered to their peak state.

  Slowly standing up, Xiao Chen gradually mobilized his spiritual power, his sharp eyes fixed intently on the front. Although he didn't know what had happened outside, the three massive auras that suddenly rose earlier were clearly perceptible, and the terrifying power that seemed to tear the sky and earth apart with just a wave of the hand left him secretly astonished.

  "Although the harvest is rich, it's still unknown whether I can leave safely." Xiao Chen took out dozens of low-grade talismans with his left hand, and on his right hand were three high-grade talismans obtained from the black-clothed man at Xiaoyan Market. With these, he should be able to hold off for a while and have a chance to escape.

  Boom!

  At this moment, a loud crashing sound suddenly came into his ears, and with Xiao Chen's current spiritual cultivation, he also felt dizzy in front of him.

  Crack!

  A crisp sound came from the side, and the restrictive shield was attacked. A narrow slit that barely allowed one person to pass through was torn apart, and it was slowly shrinking at this moment, probably recovering completely in a short while.

  Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed, and he immediately set up a teleportation light, shrinking his body to rush out of the gap.

  Boom!

  Boom!

  Boom!

  Escaping the predicament, not even having time to feel half a bit excited, the mighty spiritual power that swooped in was enough to make Xiao Chen's chest suddenly tighten, his vision blurring as he almost spat out blood.

  Xiao Chen was startled and quickly set up several layers of spiritual force shields in front of him, then took out his protective spirit artifact, only then did he feel slightly better.

  He raised his head and looked forward, where hundreds of meters away, three figures were releasing terrifying spiritual power, fighting each other crazily. Although the distance was quite far, the transmitted battle ripples still made Xiao Chen's face change color, and his body retreated backward continuously. These terrifying battle ripples, even if he touched them slightly, would be enough to make him suffer serious injuries.

  "This place is not safe to stay for long, let's go!" Xiao Chen's eyes flickered and saw that the three people seemed to have not noticed him, so he quickly set up a stealthy escape route, trying not to draw attention as he flew out.

  "Hmm?" The old woman's eyebrows slightly furrowed, earlier when she fought with that Ling Shi Shang Ren, it unexpectedly opened a hidden secret land. Although she didn't know what was inside, the medicinal fragrance that faintly came from the crack of the seal really made her heart violently shake.

  "If that elixir really existed, perhaps I wouldn't have to fall here today!" The old woman was overjoyed in her heart, seeing that the slightly plump Taoist seemed unaware of anything, and she felt even more relieved. However, at this moment, she sensed with her divine consciousness that Xiao Chen intended to leave, and couldn't help but frown slightly, casually casting an unremarkable spell.

  The casual strike of the Golden Elixir realm's boundary, even a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would likely be instantly killed. She did this as if she had already made up her mind to kill Xiao Chen.

  While fleeing, Xiao Chen's heart suddenly rose with endless crisis, and he turned around abruptly, only to see a dark and gloomy ghost claw falling down behind his back.

  "It's over!" Xiao Chen felt a wave of powerlessness rise up in his heart, the Golden Elixir cultivator's attack was absolutely capable of instantly killing him tens of times!

  But at this moment, a faint sound of gritted teeth came: "Offending me, your life will naturally be taken by me!" The voice was icy and cold, indifferent.

  Space distorted in an instant, and Xiao Chen's figure vanished suddenly at the moment the ghostly claw fell.

  PS: Next week is the final exam, hope everyone can work hard and make sure baozi's grades are not too embarrassing. Also, collect! Collect! Collect!
