As the Universe Turns - Chapter 189
Chapter 189 Fierce Battle
Xiao Chen was caught in a dilemma when a mysterious cultivator blocked the attack of the ghost vine like a tidal wave. With a swipe of his finger, a mysterious ray of light emerged and protected Hua Weiyang.
“There are at least two 400-year-old experts inside.” At this moment, Hua Weiyang also took out the Netherpity Umbrella and focused his attention on being on guard.
Very quickly, the dozen or so sword lights approached. Looking closely, there were four old men and a dozen or so young men. It was unknown where these people came from, but what was certain was that those who came were unkind, because there was a dense killing intent emanating from their bodies.
“After following you all the way, are you finally willing to show yourself …”
Xiao Chen looked at the few of them. Even though he knew that the four old men had profound Dao Cultivation, his expression was still the same. Sure enough, his senses were correct a few days ago. They had been followed along the way. These people were able to quietly follow him. It seemed that it was not simple. However, there were no four old men with profound Dao Cultivation among the people who followed him a few days ago.
As for the four old men, the red-clothed old man on the left and Old man Zi Yi had the strongest auras. It seemed that they had at least 400 years of Dao Cultivation. The two Old man Qingyi on the right had slightly weaker auras, so they must have more than 300 years of Dao Cultivation. As for the young men behind them, they only had 100 or 200 years of Dao Cultivation.
At this moment, the four old men also stared at him, but when their gazes landed on Yu Ye, a trace of doubt flashed across their faces.
Earlier, they had only received news from Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang, and where did this strange youth come from? Moreover, this aura … did not seem like an ordinary Mortal World cultivator. Especially the disdainful look in the other party’s eyes at this moment, it caused them to be even more cautious and vigilant.
“Fiendish fiendish fiendish fiendish–”
The ghost vine behind them suddenly stopped. It was unknown if it was intimidated by the two old men who had been cultivating in the air for more than 400 years, or if it had exceeded their range of attack. In short, the atmosphere at this moment became extremely cold.
“There’s no need to resist. Come with us …”
Finally, the red-clothed old man on the left spoke coldly. Xiao Chen said indifferently, “That depends on whether you have the ability …” As he spoke, his palm had already secretly condensed a strand of True Essence.
The two sides immediately became tense. At this moment, Xiao Chen could not determine who these people were. He had offended many people in the Immortal Northern Ancient Realm, first the Ye Clan, then the Danfeng Villa, and not long ago, the Azure Dragon Mountain Range’s Xuanxiao Palace.
He wasn’t too afraid of the first two, but if someone from the Profound Firmament Palace heard that True Monarch Profound Firmament’s cultivation had already taken part in fortune, if this person wanted to deal with him, it would probably be difficult to deal with him.
“Humph! Stubborn!”
Suddenly, the red-clothed old man raised his hand and a dark purple palm print covered it. In an instant, the surrounding Yin Qi became even stronger, and the roar of the wind made his scalp numb like a ghost crying.
This palm strike came in a hurry, and its momentum was unstoppable. Su Ye hung a foot above the ground, his eyes still cold and indifferent, “A mere Mortal Realm cultivator, even after hundreds of years of cultivation, dares to be presumptuous in front of me … Hmph!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his fingers condensed into a slash. It was as if a zither sound sounded. A long azure light flew out from his arm, and with a “bang”, the red-clothed old man’s palm force was pushed into the air.
The red-clothed old man’s eyes narrowed. Just who was this young man to be able to block his palm power so calmly? Could it be that his Dao Practice was still above him? No, this aura …
At this moment, he suddenly became very cautious. Previously, they thought that there were only Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang. Even though they had already known that the two of them had seized Azure Dragon’s power in the Azure Dragon Mountain Range and heavily injured the Crimson Cloud Envoy of the Profound Firmament Palace, they still thought that with such a powerful magic treasure, with this woman’s cultivation, it would be impossible for them to use it a second time in a short period of time, so they didn’t fear it anymore.
However, the appearance of Su Ye was beyond their expectations. The two of them had no choice but to be cautious.
Another purple-clothed old man suddenly took out a golden magic treasure. He didn’t know what that magic treasure was, but under his command, it spun rapidly towards Su Ye.
As for Su Ye, he was still fearless. He coldly snorted and pinched the seal in his hand. A green light shot out, and with a “bang”, he also blocked the purple-clothed old man’s magic treasure in mid-air.
The red-clothed old man stopped fighting Su Ye and turned to attack Xiao Chen. The other two green-clothed old men also attacked Hua Weiyang at this moment. As for the ten or so young men behind them, they didn’t dare to get too close. They could only use their flying swords and attack from afar.
In just a short moment, the rocks in front of the villa had already cracked apart. The clouds in the sky were rolling endlessly. The Bie Jian Villa, which had been silent for hundreds of years, had gradually become noisy today because of the battle between the two sides. The Yin Qi that enveloped the entire villa had also become heavier and heavier without their knowing it.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Swift sounds echoed throughout the valley. The wind palm sword in midair turned into golden rays of light that were dazzling and dazzling. Hua Weiyang resisted two 300-year-old cultivators on her own. Even though she had Lian You Umbrella and Yu Lian Hua in her hands, her cold injuries had not fully recovered, and she was gradually feeling exhausted.
As for the purple-gold gourd that Wentian had given her, these people did not expect it to be bad. Wentian’s magic power was not something she could use if she wanted to. She had only used it once in the Azure Dragon Mountain Range last time, so she could not use it a second time in a short period of time.
“Wei Yang …”
Seeing that the situation on Weiyang’s side was tense, Xiao Chen had no time to look on. He could only dodge the attack of the red-clothed old man time and time again. Although he was pregnant with the ancient heavenly book, the death aura here was too heavy. Once he used it, the ghost vines behind him would probably instantly surge over like a tide. At that time, it would be even more disadvantageous for him and Hua Weiyang.
“Humph!”
The red-clothed old man snorted coldly. He didn’t know what cultivation technique he had used this time, but countless streaks of red light circled around him in an instant. With a swipe of his condensed finger, the streaks of red light immediately gathered together, forming a blood-red palm print that shot toward Xiao Chen.
Although his strength was extremely powerful, at this moment, Xiao Chen finally found the right opportunity. The Great Freedom Cultivation Technique within his body began to circulate. With a wave of his hands, the blood-red palm print that was originally attacking him suddenly turned towards Hua Weiyang under the traction of the Great Freedom Cultivation Technique.
“Wei Yang! Retreat!”
Right now, his Great Freedom Palm Technique was not very proficient, and he was unable to do whatever he wished. In addition, the old man in red’s cultivation was not low, so he could not control his palm freely. He could only barely draw his direction. If he accidentally injured Hua Weiyang, it was not impossible.
Hua Weiyang’s mind was extremely sharp. He immediately knew that he had found the right opportunity to use the Great Freedom Palm Technique. In an instant, he held the Netherpity Umbrella in his hand and flew out.
The two Old man Qingyi were still chasing after her when they suddenly felt a fierce palm wind coming from the side. Before the two of them could react, the palm wind had already covered their entire bodies in an instant. They wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.
“Bang! Bang!”
With two sharp sounds, the two Old man Qingyi were directly struck by the red palm print, causing them to vomit blood and fly away. If it wasn’t for Xiao Chen’s lack of proficiency in the Great Freedom Palm Technique, which caused the blood red palm print’s strength to be greatly reduced, otherwise, he would have to teach the two of them a serious injury on the spot.
“What’s going on …”
The red-clothed old man’s eyes suddenly narrowed. The palm power he had just struck, how could he have taught this kid to change directions? Just how many cultivation techniques that had been lost in ancient times were left on this kid …
The dozen or so young men in the distance were also stunned for a moment. Then, they immediately rode their takeoff swords and slashed towards Xiao Chen with fierce sword qi.
This time, Xiao Chen didn’t hesitate either. He flicked his hands and activated his Great Freedom Palm Technique. He immediately used the layers of Sword Qi for his own use. He counterattacked again, only to hear a “bang bang bang bang” sound. The dozen or so men were knocked backwards by his Sword Qi.
“This!”
This time, the red-clothed old man finally saw clearly that this was definitely a cultivation technique that had been lost in ancient times. In the current cultivation world, many profound cultivation techniques had already been lost in ten thousand years. He had never heard of any sect that had such a strange and strange cultivation technique!
“What’s going on!”
The purple-clothed old man who was confronting Su Ye in the distance also looked over. It was truly unimaginable that this brat possessed more than one or two ancient cultivation techniques. No wonder the elder had to capture him this time.
On this side, Xiao Chen immediately adjusted his aura and used the Great Freedom Palm twice in a row. The consumption wasn’t small, so he naturally remembered Daoist Lonely Lamp’s words clearly.
There were flaws in all cultivation techniques in the world, and the Great Freedom Palm Technique was no exception. Don’t let the opponent find flaws when casting a spell. Otherwise, it would be extremely easy for him to fall into a predicament, or even a dangerous situation. The more powerful a cultivation technique was, the more dangerous it would be once it was broken by the opponent.
“Idiot …”
Hua Weiyang was worried that the two of them would take advantage of this opportunity to attack. He immediately flew over and controlled two magic treasures. He focused his attention on the red-clothed old man in midair. The red-clothed old man had been cultivating for more than 400 years and was indeed difficult to deal with.
In the distance, the two previously injured Old man Qingyi sat cross-legged, practicing cultivation to treat each other’s injuries. Su Ye, who was confronting Old man Zi Yi, sent a secret message to the red-clothed old man, “What should we do now?”
The red-clothed old man focused his gaze and sent back a secret message, “I haven’t completely seen through this kid’s cultivation technique. He can borrow my strength to counterattack others. Only the two of us can work together to deal with this cultivation technique of his.”
“But …”
Old man Zi Yi looked at Su Ye. He really couldn’t figure out who this youth was. His profound arts couldn’t harm him at all.
If he were to attack that brat, this youth would definitely come to stop him, and the two magic treasures of that woman would also be powerful. At that time, if the two of them were to be pinched back and forth, it would be disadvantageous. This youth has now become the greatest obstacle for the two of them, and we must think of a way to remove it …
Thinking of this, a cold killing intent flashed through his eyes. The red-clothed old man whispered, “You’ve been fighting him for so long, haven’t you noticed that this youth is not a mortal?”
Hearing this, Old man Zi Yi couldn’t help but be stunned, “Not a mortal …”
“That’s right, it’s a soul.”
At this moment, the red-clothed old man’s eyes became exceptionally cold. He had just confirmed that Su Ye was not a mortal, and he had already thought of a poisonous plan to deal with this ancient soul.
