Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

At this moment, Chen Tian didn't notice he was being targeted. After bidding farewell to He Yutang, he flew westward.

After flying three hundred miles, he suddenly turned south, and after another five hundred miles, Chen Tian changed direction again, this time flying eastward.

This was Chen Tian's usual caution, because he vaguely felt that He Yutang was acting strangely. Only after these three changes in direction could Chen Tian confidently shake him off.

Chen Tian had already bought enough demon cores at the Qi Zhuang market, so he no longer needed to hunt demon beasts painstakingly. Now, he just needed to find a secluded place to cultivate in seclusion.

This time, Chen Tian felt confident that he could break through to the Spirit Gathering stage in one go.

Thinking this, Chen Tian couldn't help but feel excited, and his speed became even faster.

Chen Tian went east, and soon, a continuous mountain range appeared before him. Chen Tian took a deep breath and found that the spiritual energy here was very abundant, making it a good place for secluded cultivation.

A joyful smile appeared on the corner of Chen Tian's mouth, and he was about to fly towards the mountains.

"Whoosh…"

But suddenly, at this moment, a piercing sound of air being torn apart rang out rapidly behind Chen Tian.

Chen Tian was originally overjoyed, but upon hearing this piercing sound, his heart tightened, and his body involuntarily flipped to the right.

"Boom!"

A red sword aura brushed past Chen Tian's body and shot into the ground, instantly blasting a towering ancient tree into dust.

Chen Tian was frightened by the sight. He knew that if his movements had been even a fraction slower, he would have been the one blasted into pieces.

Chen Tian hated people launching sneak attacks from behind, so his expression instantly turned gloomy, and he slowly turned around.

"Hehe, Brother Ye, what a coincidence, we meet again."

Just as Chen Tian turned around, the figure of a handsome man first came into his view. It was He Yutang, whom he had just parted ways with!

Chen Tian glanced at him coldly and then turned his gaze to his side.

He saw that around He Yutang, there were four figures shrouded in mist. Their cultivation levels were not low, with the weakest being in the mid-stage of the Spirit Guiding realm!

In other words, Chen Tian was now surrounded by five Spirit Guiding realm cultivators.

Fortunately, Chen Tian had been prepared, so he wasn't too surprised by He Yutang's sudden appearance.

While Chen Tian was thinking of a countermeasure, he stalled for time and said, "He Yutang, I felt something was wrong just now. I didn't expect you really had other plans for me!"

"Of course," He Yutang's originally handsome face was now as ferocious as a beast, and he sneered, "Alright, quickly hand over the five thousand demon cores you bought, or you'll die here!"

"Hmm?"

Chen Tian was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he suddenly realized, "You colluded with the people in that shop?"

He Yutang was able to find out about Chen Tian's purchase of demon cores so quickly, it was obvious that someone from the Qi Zhuang market had told them!

"Hehe, you're not stupid!" He Yutang smiled and said, "That's right, my spies are all over the Qi Zhuang market. Blame yourself for being unlucky today!"

As soon as he said this, the other four also sneered.

Chen Tian's eyes sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll ask you one last question. How did you catch up to me?"

Chen Tian was indeed a little confused. He had changed direction three times to guard against this He Yutang. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been able to catch up!

When He Yutang heard Chen Tian's question, he sneered disdainfully, then raised the back of his hand and showed it to Chen Tian.

Chen Tian frowned, then looked at the back of his hand.

He Yutang's skin was extremely fair, like pure white paper. But on this paper, there was a small black dot constantly crawling.

Chen Tian was surprised and focused his attention again, and he suddenly discovered that this black dot was actually an ant.

"What do you mean by this?" Chen Tian asked in confusion after seeing the ant on the back of He Yutang's hand.

He Yutang smiled slightly and said, "Look at your left shoulder."

"Left shoulder?"

Chen Tian was shocked when he heard this, and then he turned his head to look.

If he hadn't looked, it would have been fine, but upon looking, he was startled. On Chen Tian's left shoulder, there was also a black ant constantly circling.

"Haha, kill them all you want, I have plenty of these ants, you can't kill them all! But today, you will have to leave your little life here!"

He Yutang didn't care at all that Chen Tian had killed one of his ants, but instead laughed even more wildly, and in this laughter, there was a strong greed. The other four also echoed with wild laughter after hearing this.

To be honest, Chen Tian was really angry at this moment. He coldly glanced at these five people and said angrily, "I'll give you one chance. If you know what's good for you, then get out of here, otherwise, don't blame me, Ye, for being impolite."

"What?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, He Yutang seemed to have heard a funny joke and said disdainfully, "You haven't figured out your situation yet, have you? You actually want to threaten us, you're simply overestimating yourself."

He Yutang and his group of five had a total of two Spirit Guiding realm Completion stage cultivators, two Spirit Guiding realm Late stage cultivators, and one Spirit Guiding realm Mid stage cultivator. In terms of strength, they could truly sweep across a large area.

Although Chen Tian also had the Spirit Guiding realm Completion stage, he was ultimately just one person, so they were not afraid of Chen Tian's threat.

"Okay, I've given you the chance, but you didn't seize it. Then next, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Chen Tian coldly glanced at them, then shook his hands and took out the Red Phoenix Longsword.

"Top-grade Spirit Treasure!"

After seeing the Red Phoenix Longsword clearly, the five of them were shocked. They didn't expect Chen Tian to have such a precious magic weapon on him.

However, before long, the greed in their eyes became even more intense, as if they had already decided that this top-grade magic weapon was theirs.

"Kid, you've given us another reason to kill you!" He Yutang stared greedily at the Red Phoenix Longsword, his originally handsome face becoming even more ferocious.
