He continued cursing as he sped forward. Yun Chu'an knew he was no match for him, so he didn't try to meet the attack head-on. Instead, he dodged and was once again forced into a sorry state.
But he remained calm. Seeing the opponent's aggressive approach, he simply retreated a great distance. At the same time, he controlled his avatar, which had been enhanced by the fire element, to suddenly burn its spiritual power and rush forward, crashing head-on into Li Xinkang's body!
The latter gritted his teeth and cursed, turning to strike with his sword. Yun Chu'an knew his avatar couldn't survive, but he felt no pity. He snapped his fingers, and the avatar, strengthened by fire elemental energy, ignited itself and self-destructed—
boom--
The terrifying explosion shook the very air. Normally, an explosion of this magnitude wouldn't have been enough to harm Li Xinkang much. But the situation was different now. He was already severely injured, so this attack sent him flying backward through the sea of fire, his wound on his waist and abdomen being ripped open and his injuries worsened.
Seeing that it was effective, Yun Chu'an's eyes lit up, and he leaped forward at top speed. Halfway there, another idea came to him. A glance at his last avatar revealed golden lightning crackling around him, which he then unleashed directly at Li Xinkang. "You Yongzai Meimei Meikong Ni Lin Zaizai Meinei..."
The latter steadied himself slightly, and seeing him step forward so unabashedly, he sneered inwardly.
You can't wait to end this battle, can you?
Being impatient for quick success is suicidal!
He let out a cold laugh, drew his sword with a backhand, and met Yun Chu'an's Guan Dao head-on.
He was actually anxious; the injury couldn't be delayed any longer, and he had to finish off Yun Chu'an as soon as possible. The sword strike was sharp and fierce, but Yun Chu'an's body was more agile than he had imagined. Midway through, he suddenly changed his move, turning his body from offense to defense. The blade collided with the tip of his sword, and in that instant, boundless, sharp sword intent pierced through his own body!
Yun Chu'an's face was contorted with rage, his body covered in countless bloody gashes from the sword energy, turning him into a blood-soaked figure in an instant.
But a smile played on his lips, and his eyes gleamed with excitement. At that very moment, another avatar of his had circled behind Li Xinkang, colliding with him at the crucial instant when his old strength had dissipated and his new strength had not yet arisen, and then self-destructing—
click-
Endless ice crystals covered his body, instantly making him stiff and unable to move. Even the flow of his spiritual energy became slightly sluggish!
In an instant, Li Xinkang was speechless, his eyes widened, and his pupils shrank to the size of pinholes.
At that very moment, Yun Chu'an wielded his Guan Dao, which, under the influence of the golden divine lightning, unleashed a horizontal slash.
This time, already severely injured and at his last gasp, he was no longer able to stop them.
One strike, and he's beheaded.
laugh--
Crimson blood shot into the sky, and Li Xinkang's enormous head flew upwards, hovering before falling to the side and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, golden lightning pierced through his body, which was no longer protected by spiritual energy, and instantly charred him black. A pale blue nascent soul emerged from his body and flew into the distance.
During its escape, it turned its head and looked back once, its face filled with immense terror, as if it were looking at some kind of ghost or deity.
He couldn't believe that this young man, whose cultivation was only at the late Golden Core stage, actually possessed such immense power that he could overcome a major realm and defeat him!
At this moment, his heart was filled with terror. However, with his physical body already destroyed, he no longer had any desire to continue fighting.
He didn't even have time to utter a harsh word before turning around and speeding away, fleeing into the distance.
"……whispering sound."
Watching Li Xinkang flee in panic, Yun Chu'an scoffed, his face showing some displeasure.
However, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, he had never been able to stop a Nascent Soul cultivator from leaving if they truly wanted to.
But none of that matters anymore.
He won; the victory on this battlefield belongs to him.
His gaze then swept across the battlefield, carrying the pride of a victor, head held high, exuding an imposing aura. Nearby, several late-stage Golden Core cultivators, who still retained some fighting strength, couldn't help but tremble at his sight.
There were more than a dozen of them. If Li Xinkang had still been there, they would have dared to step forward and fight Yun Chuan.
But by now, Li Xinkang had already fled, and these people were also seriously injured by Yun Chuan's sudden attack with the Four Great Seals. Some of them had even died physically, with only their golden cores escaping...
Given this situation, how can they possibly fight against Yun Chu'an?
What courage do they have to continue fighting against Yun Chu'an?
"withdraw--!"
A cultivator in the late stage of the Golden Core stage gritted his teeth and spoke out. Although his voice was filled with resentment and anger, they had no other choice but to retreat at this moment.
Many Qin soldiers glanced at this side reluctantly, but none of them complained. They gritted their teeth, turned around, and sped away.
But now, Yun Chu'an had no intention of letting them go.
Are you kidding me? You think you can just leave whenever you want?
At least leave something behind!
"kill!"
He roared and commanded the rebel army to give chase. The Qin army, however, was willing to make a painful sacrifice, releasing all the clay beasts with the strength of Golden Core cultivators to charge at them in a suicidal attack. Their only goal was to stop them at all costs.
Chapter 765 Tonight, it will be very late (a long chapter of 7,000 words)
Thus, after eliminating several more clay beasts with the strength of Golden Core cultivators, the battle finally came to a complete end.
In this battle, Yun Chuan and his men achieved a great victory!
Gu Jian's face showed relief at surviving the ordeal, while his sister Gu Yu's face was full of disbelief. Her pretty face was still half-asleep, as if she couldn't believe that she had actually survived and won such a battle.
Her gaze was fixed on Yun Chu'an, and she felt her heart about to stop beating for a moment.
Zuo Qian also looked at Yun Chu'an, his old eyes filled with emotion. After a long while, he murmured to himself, "Indeed, heroes have always emerged from among the young..."
Yun Chu'an stood rooted to the spot, leaning on his Guan Dao. In the distance, Dongfang Yue's voice rang out: "Congratulations!"
She clapped her hands and walked towards him step by step, squinting her eyes and smiling charmingly: "Now, you should have earned everything you wanted, right?"
Yun Chu'an snapped out of his reverie, nodded, a satisfied smile playing on his lips, then stretched his shoulders, looking quite comfortable: "Of course! And this time, we've really seized the lifeline of the Qin state! Hmm..."
As he said this, his expression shifted, and he turned to look at Su Youling, only to see that the baby-faced girl also had a satisfied smile on her lips.
Without delay, he quickly retrieved the Bagua compass she had lent him, presented it to her with both hands, and said, "Thank you for your generosity, Miss Su. Otherwise, whether I live or die today would still be uncertain."
Su Youling's lips curled up as she retrieved her magic weapon and continued, "You owe me a favor, but I know how you should repay it."
She didn't mince words and spoke her mind directly. Before Yun Chu'an could respond, she blurted out, "You have to teach me the 'One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones' spell. I've been trying to learn it for years but haven't succeeded. You have to take responsibility and teach me!"
Her simple request was rather endearing.
Looking at her lovely face, Yun Chu'an felt a sudden liking for her. He didn't refuse and readily agreed: "Okay! However, this is not a suitable place to impart knowledge and resolve doubts. Senior Zuo, please lead us away. We can discuss our next steps when we reach a safe place."
Zuo Qian was filled with sighs. After careful consideration, he felt that he and his group were no longer qualified to cooperate with the other party on an equal footing in terms of strength.
He weighed his options, and upon hearing this, he naturally dared not be negligent: "Of course, everyone, please follow me. Deep in the desert, there are oases everywhere that we depend on for survival."
With that, he turned around, ignoring his injuries, and sped off into the distance.
Yun Chuan and the others quickly followed, their bodies transforming into streaks of light.
Soon, they arrived at another exit of this secret realm. The Great Emperor Houde's secret realm was vast and boundless, and for many years, it had been a place for the people of the desert to cultivate and hone themselves.
It was only in the last few hundred years, because this place could produce the Primordial Qi, that the Qin army occupied this place, causing great resentment from heaven and man.
As for their familiarity with this secret realm, and where the hidden entrances are, they are the ones who know it better.
Thus, through a small loophole, the group managed to escape the secret realm and see the light of day again.
"Wow--"
Suddenly breathing in the fresh air from the outside world, the stuffy feeling in the earth elemental-rich secret realm vanished instantly. In a moment, Yun Chu'an couldn't help but gasp for breath, feeling incomparably refreshed.
Having stayed in that secret realm for so many days, he had almost forgotten what fresh air outside was like. Now, breathing it in deeply, he felt indescribably refreshed.
Beside them, Yan Shuiyi, Gu Yu, and the others couldn't help but show expressions of enjoyment. After all, too much single spiritual energy is not a good thing; a perfect balance of the five elements is the best.
Even though this place is still a desert with a high concentration of earth element, it is still much better than the secret realm we just left.
"Walk."
Zuo Qian took the lead, guiding the way from the front, with the rest of the group rushing to catch up.
The desert climate is even more unpredictable, making it an ideal place to set up illusion arrays. After passing through a series of incredibly realistic, massive, and mysterious mirages, Yun Chu'an and the others finally landed with Zuo Qian in a thriving oasis.
The oasis was mostly populated by Foundation Establishment cultivators, and some were even only at the Qi Refining stage. Upon seeing Yun Chu'an's unfamiliar face, everyone was wary. However, when they saw Yan Shui and the other two stunningly beautiful female cultivators, a commotion immediately arose within the crowd.
Zuo Qian seemed to have a high reputation in this place. He coughed lightly, and the crowd immediately fell silent.
He then treated everyone with the utmost hospitality, inviting them into the heart of the oasis. Instead of discussing the future with Yun Chuan, he distributed medicines and sent everyone back to heal their wounds. He himself then went into his tent, where he was doing something unknown.
He needs some time to think about how to get along with such a powerful partner as Yun Chuan in a way that satisfies both parties.
Yun Chu'an wasn't in a hurry. He was seriously injured and needed some time to recover. Fortunately, Zuo Qian had arranged for him to stay in a large, even luxurious house, which was convenient for him and beneficial for his cultivation.
Yan Shuiyi, Dongfang Yue, and Su Youling also entered his house. When Yun Chuan was sitting cross-legged by the window, facing away from the sun, healing his injuries, the three of them sat down next to him, checked the room, set up an array, and after everything in the room was in place, they transferred their energy to him to help him recover as soon as possible.
Yun Chu'an was born with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, so his recovery speed was extremely fast. Moreover, the sun in the desert was particularly scorching, and he also had an unlimited supply of mid-grade spirit stones.
As the sun began to set, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze gleaming with a sharp light. His injuries had completely healed.
He exhaled a long breath, turned his head and looked around. At this moment, the three girls, Yan Shuiyi, also opened their eyes, their beautiful eyes looking at him with barely suppressed joy in their pupils.
From the bottom of his heart, he sincerely thanked them, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."
Su Youling looked at him, unable to contain her excitement, and quickly said, "It's no trouble at all, ah, you've recovered, right? Then quickly teach me your... um..."
She couldn't wait to speak, but as soon as she finished, she belatedly realized that the sun outside was already setting and it was almost time to rest.
And rest means...
Looking back on the past few days, Yun Chuan stayed with him day and night, studying how to deal with Li Xinkang and how to trick him.
So these past few days, he's hardly ever gone back to his own tent, to the point that Yan Shuiyi's eyes have started to look somewhat resentful...
Su Youling glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and found that her best friend was indeed looking at her, with a kind of passionate longing in her eyes.
Suddenly, she sensed something, and then, she blurted out bluntly, "You want that... right?"
She had only spoken halfway when she suddenly regretted it: Was this something she could say? How could she have so directly exposed such a thing!
As expected, Yan Shui blushed immediately upon hearing this. She turned her face away, stood up to leave, and said, "Nothing of the sort. I... your matters are more important. Yue'er, we're leaving. Don't disturb their cultivation..."
Although that's what she said, there was still a hint of resentment in her tone.
Even if Su Youling was completely oblivious to social cues, she knew that Yan Shuiyi couldn't possibly be telling the truth right now. She cursed herself inwardly for always speaking so thoughtlessly, then forced an awkward smile, quickly stood up, and hurriedly walked out: "I'm not in a hurry, I'm really not in a hurry. I was just asking. I'm tired too, I should go back to my room to sleep. You don't need to worry about me, just go about your business, hahahaha..."
As she spoke, she let out a series of extremely awkward laughs, which made her seem guilty and made the three people in the room feel even more embarrassed.
Yan Shui's face was flushed. Although she did have that kind of desire at the moment, shyness took the lead.
She blushed and glanced at Yun Chu'an, then turned to leave: "If there's nothing else, I should go back and rest..."
Knowing what she was thinking, Yun Chu'an immediately spoke up, "Wait a minute!"
With a single sentence, he stopped Yan Shui. Then, he turned to look in Dongfang Yue's direction: "Miss Dongfang, is there anything else? If not, go back and rest. Your senior sister and I... have a little something to discuss."
He said this, trying to make his face look serious, as if he really had something important to discuss.
However, Yan Shui knew what he was thinking, and she also knew that he knew what she was thinking at that moment. In front of her junior sister, her face turned even redder, and she turned her face away, refusing to say anything more.
Dongfang Yue stared in disbelief.
Then, she gritted her teeth in anger, clenched her little fists, and stared at Yun Chuan with her beautiful eyes almost spitting fire!
Yun Chu An!
A roar was raging in her heart.
Don't think I can't guess what you're thinking!
You say such nice things, but what you really want deep down is to get rid of me and then cultivate with my senior sister, and... have sex together!
That's exactly how it should be, that's exactly how it should be, and then that's exactly how it should be!
This lecher! Shameless! Pervert! Woody!
But... what is Senior Sister thinking?
She was angry, but the scene she imagined in her mind made her cheeks blush.
Then, Dongfang Yue turned her head, looked at Yan Shuiyi, and called out softly, "Senior Sister? Are you going to stay here? I'll go back first?"
Yan Shuiyi's cheeks grew even hotter. She tried her best to appear serious and said, "It's nothing serious, Yue'er. If you don't have anything else to do, then... then go back and rest first. I need to rest too later."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yue felt a chill in her heart.
Oh no, my senior sister wants to do that kind of thing too.
However, that makes sense. After all, they've already been Daoist partners for a long time. What Daoist partner of this age and cultivation level wouldn't cultivate together...
At this thought, she felt her heart bleed. The memory of her senior sister lying naked in front of Yun Chu'an, her delicate garden being wantonly ravaged by his monstrous thing, made her heart ache.
No, there's nothing we can do about it.
