Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 133: Reverse Beheading

Amidst a thunderous roar, a surge of green wood energy burst forth, transforming into a twenty-zhang-long flame spear that pierced through the entire front yard pharmacy.

Within the range enveloped by the green flame, everything and everyone disintegrated.

The intense green flame seemed to melt the entire Changsheng Hall.

Before the impact of the green flame arrived, Gao Xian had already turned into an invisible state.

The world in his eyes turned black and white, while he himself existed as a phantom in this world.

In this state, when he looked at Zhu Changsheng, he could see the old man emitting a dazzling white light, like the exhaust flame of a rocket soaring into the sky.

The green flame unleashed by Zhu Changsheng was even more brilliant, seemingly capable of burning through the black and white world.

Gao Xian's phantom-like body constantly twisted and trembled within the flame.

He was secretly shocked in his heart. The old man's final strike was so powerful that even his invisible state was affected by the force of his magic.

From this, it could be seen that magic of sufficient strength could also destroy an invisible state!

Fortunately, the violent and fierce green flame arrived and departed with equal swiftness. In the blink of an eye, the green flame had completely dissipated.

As Zhu Changsheng's divine consciousness collapsed, the green wood energy that he had controlled also crumbled, transforming into countless chaotic invisible forces that spread out in all directions.

Zhu Qiniang, who was standing below the wall, felt as if she had been struck by an invisible heavy hammer. The profound and magnificent aura shield emitted by her Huangtang robe shattered on the spot, and the tremendous force of magic propelled her through the wall, flying several zhang away.

The illusionary figure in the air flickered and changed, and Gao Xian's figure appeared. He glanced at Zhu Qiniang, who was lying on the ground covered in dust. Fortunately, her magic circulation was stable and her divine consciousness was firm. Although she looked a bit disheveled, she had not suffered any substantial injuries.

Gao Xian also breathed a sigh of relief. He had mocked Zhu Changsheng earlier because he knew the old man wasn't completely dead, and he had to hold onto his hatred.

If the old man had attacked Qiniang, it would have been disastrous.

Fortunately, the old man was not in his right mind and was broken through by Gao Xian's mockery, immediately launching a frenzied attack against him.

This strike was truly unparalleled in ferocity, leveling the entire Changsheng Hall.

Including everyone inside the hall, they were all instantly killed by this strike. Even the middle-aged man at the ninth level of Qi Refining brought by the old man was killed by this strike.

Such a tremendous momentum could be heard throughout the entire Feima City.

Gao Xian, however, was exceptionally excited at this moment. Zhu Changsheng had been pressing down on him like a mountain, making it difficult for him to catch his breath.

Today, he personally overturned Zhu Changsheng, and he felt an unprecedented sense of ease and comfort throughout his body. It was indescribably satisfying.

He quickly realized that Zhu Changsheng's final strike had alarmed countless people. It wouldn't matter if it was anyone else, but if Li Shuanglin came and couldn't handle the situation, it would be troublesome.

Gao Xian didn't dare to delay. He quickly collected Zhu Changsheng's storage bag and used a flick of his sleeve to store the old man in another storage talisman.

After completing these tasks, Gao Xian used the Shadowless Robe to envelop the still dazed Qiniang.

Qiniang saw Zhu Changsheng's body, but she still couldn't believe that he had been killed so easily by Gao Xian.

No matter how much she had thought about it beforehand, she couldn't have imagined this outcome!

To kill a Foundation Building second level cultivator with Qi Refining cultivation in a reverse manner, if this news were to spread, it would shake the entire Nine Provinces!

Gao Xian, however, remained calm and clear-headed at this moment. With the dazed Qiniang in tow, he quickly left the ruins.

The two of them had just arrived behind Changsheng Hall when Gao Xian saw Li Shuanglin flying from the sky and in the blink of an eye, he was above the ruins of Changsheng Hall.

Gao Xian didn't want to confront Li Shuanglin, so he took Qiniang and hid behind a wall.

The distance between the two sides was a hundred steps away, and it was impossible for Li Shuanglin to see through the Invisible Shadow Robe with his eyes alone. Even with his divine sense scanning, he couldn't sense the existence of the Invisible Shadow Robe.

Gao Xian had tested this Foundation Building cultivator from the Feima Sect a few times.

Twenty steps was a safe distance, beyond which Li Shuanglin couldn't detect the Invisible Shadow Robe.

Gao Xian dared not speak, he held Qiniang tightly, using this action to remind her to be cautious.

Qiniang was also awake now. Although she was still extremely shocked, she was able to cooperate with Gao Xian to suppress her cultivation and adjust her aura.

Li Shuanglin, who flew on his wind-steed, cautiously landed on the ground. Seeing the scene of devastation, he knew that a Foundation Building cultivator had made a move.

Flying on the wind was convenient for traveling, and it was also very elegant. However, flying in the sky was ultimately not as solid as stepping on the ground.

If he were to encounter an ambush, it would be very dangerous without any cover in the air, and it would be difficult to quickly change positions to avoid attacks.

Only by becoming a Golden Core cultivator could one control their cultivation with a harmonious Golden Core, allowing them to freely maneuver in the air.

Li Shuanglin circled around Changsheng Hall but didn't find any valuable clues.

From the residual aura of spiritual energy, it was definitely Zhu Changsheng who made a move. Only his Wood-Fire Integrated Union technique had such characteristics of wood and fire spiritual energy.

The problem was that he only sensed the Wood-Fire Integrated Union technique, but didn't find any residual aura left by Zhu Changsheng's opponent. This was too strange.

From the state of the ruins, Zhu Changsheng should be dead. If he wasn't dead, he would never silently run away on his own.

Li Shuanglin and Zhu Changsheng had a terrible relationship, and this time Zhu Changsheng came to Feima Sect to compete with him for resources. He wished Zhu Changsheng would die early.

But Zhu Changsheng died so inexplicably, which made him very uneasy.

The fact that the other party could kill Zhu Changsheng without leaving a trace was even more terrifying!

Li Shuanglin's face was exceptionally gloomy as he stood on the ruins, holding his sword in silence for a long time...

Gao Xian glanced at Li Shuanglin with the Flower Discerning Spirit Mirror, then took Zhu Qiniang to a house on the western edge.

It wasn't safe to go home at this time, so it was better to hide first.

The two of them entered the courtyard and the big cow hiding in the house hurriedly came out, "Sister Qijie, Brother, you're here."

The big cow was extremely excited, especially worried about Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang.

The key was that this time their enemy was Zhu Changsheng, the ancestor of the Zhu family, a Foundation Building cultivator. He thought that Sister Qijie and Gao Xian were doomed, feeling extremely depressed and upset.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, Gao Xian and Qiniang arrived.

Seeing that the two of them were fine, the big cow was so excited that he wanted to cry.

Gao Xian comforted the big cow with a few words. This child was clearly frightened.

Zhu Qiniang didn't have the mood to care about the big cow. She said to him, "You stay in the courtyard and don't let anyone in."

After speaking, Zhu Qiniang pulled Gao Xian into the room.

This earthen house was very dilapidated. Because it hadn't been inhabited for a long time and no one had cleaned it, it was full of dust and had a faint musty smell.

There is no need for Zhu Qiniang to speak. Gao Xian first takes out Zhu Changsheng's body.

Fortunately, the room is in ruins, so there is no need to be particular.

Zhu Qiniang has completely calmed down at this point. She doesn't say anything and skillfully begins to examine the body. The valuable items such as the robe and magical tools are quickly stripped off.

Only an old man in a set of undergarments remains, lying stiffly on the ground, his wide old eyes not knowing who they are looking at.

"Evergreen robe, second-grade medium quality, should be able to sell for over ten thousand spirit stones.

"Ten Thousand Years Peach Wood Sword, said to be taken from a ten thousand-year-old peach tree demon, second-grade top quality, has a great boosting effect on wood-based cultivators. It can sell for at least thirty thousand spirit stones..."

Zhu Qiniang categorizes and inspects various items one by one, muttering to herself.

Gao Xian doesn't want to interfere, nor is there a need to. Zhu Qiniang is much better than him at handling corpses and appraising items.

He asks in a low voice, "What should we do next?"

Having killed Zhu Changsheng, they have passed this hurdle.

The problem is that there is still Lianyun Sect behind Zhu Changsheng. If the sect investigates, how should they explain?

Without lifting her head, she says, "What else can we do? These things of the old man are of high value. Selling just one item would be enough to buy a Foundation Building Pill.

"Once I complete Foundation Building, we can also establish ourselves in Qingyun City and start anew."

Gao Xian nods, considering this method to be reliable. However, he can't help but feel a bit reluctant to give up Feima Ji.

After thinking for a moment, he takes out Zhu Changsheng's storage bag. "Let me see if the old man has anything good."

The storage bag is green and has a complex pattern composed of golden runes, looking very exquisite.

There is the old man's spiritual imprint on the storage bag. If it fell into someone else's hands, they wouldn't be able to open it for ten or twenty years.

Gao Xian activates the Yang Spear and, in just a short moment, destroys the old man's spiritual imprint and opens the storage bag.

Truly befitting a Foundation Building cultivator's storage bag, it has a space of nine squares and contains many items.

Among them, the majority are various medicinal herbs, neatly arranged and categorized on one side.

There are also ordinary clothes, food, drinks, and other miscellaneous items, all placed in an orderly manner.

There aren't many truly valuable things. Gao Xian's eyes immediately spot over a hundred medium-grade spirit stones.

The old man truly is the head of a family, actually having so many spirit stones!

Beside a pile of spirit stones, there are also some magical tools and talismans. There are also a few jade slips recording secret techniques, as well as two jade boxes.

Gao Xian doesn't care about the other things and takes out a few delicate jade boxes.

Inspecting the items in the storage bag is not done with the eyes but with spiritual consciousness. Even with the jade boxes inside, he can't see what is inside them.

Based on experience, Gao Xian believes that the jade boxes should contain pills, which is why they need to be preserved in this manner.

He opens the first jade box and sees a blood-red pill inside.

The pill is the size of a walnut, with a very thick outer layer, sealing the medicinal properties very well.

Gao Xian still uses the Fragrance-Sensing Technique to smell the refreshing medicinal fragrance emitted by the pill.

From the fragrance of the medicine, it should be a top-grade pill that enhances cultivation. As for what exactly it is, he couldn't determine.

On the side, Zhu Qiniang became somewhat excited, her bright green eyes shining: "Foundation Building Pill!"

"Hmm?"

Gao Xian's face was full of disbelief. He had never won more than ten yuan in the lottery, so how could he have such good luck!

He handed the pill to Zhu Qiniang, "Are you sure?"

Zhu Qiniang carefully took the pill and repeatedly examined it with identification techniques for a while. She nodded vigorously, "It is indeed the Foundation Building Pill!"

Gao Xian couldn't help but be overjoyed. There was nothing more fortunate than receiving exactly what he needed.

He opened the other box and found another Foundation Building Pill.

Gao Xian looked at the old man lying stiff on the ground and said with some emotion, "You are a good person! Thank you."

Suddenly, Zhu Qiniang said to Gao Xian, "I will Foundation Building now."

Her tone was calm, but her gaze was exceptionally bright, with an unwavering determination.

"There's no need to take risks."

Gao Xian didn't quite understand Zhu Qiniang's choice. Having two Foundation Building Pills could greatly increase the chances of successfully building the foundation.

However, he had heard that the timing for Foundation Building was also important.

Cultivators accumulate their cultivation to the extreme, and then they produce a sensation. This is the best time for Foundation Building.

Although Zhu Qiniang's cultivation had reached the tenth level of Qi Refining, she was probably not at the stage where she couldn't make any further progress. Taking the Foundation Building Pill now was a bit too risky.

"If I can successfully build the foundation, we won't have to leave."

Zhu Qiniang said seriously, "I can go find Li Shuanglin and cooperate with him. I'll say that Zhu Changsheng was assassinated by the Seven Kill Sect."

"Zhu Changsheng's teacher died a long time ago, and he has no support in the sect. No one will waste too much energy on a dead person."

"With Li Shuanglin's endorsement, it will be easier to explain to the sect."

Gao Xian thought this was a good idea, but all the risks would have to be borne by Zhu Qiniang.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "It's too risky."

Zhu Qiniang looked straight into Gao Xian's eyes and asked, "What are the chances of you killing Zhu Changsheng?"

"I'm about fifty to sixty percent sure."

Zhu Qiniang suddenly smiled and gently touched Gao Xian's cheek, saying softly, "Zhu Changsheng values your alchemy talent and won't make things difficult for you. If you take the risk to kill him, it's all for me!"

"What does it matter if I take a little risk to build the foundation?"

She paused and continued, "If Zhu Changsheng dies, the Zhu family will have no one in charge. If I can successfully build the foundation, I can take control of the Zhu family."

"If this happens, the benefits for both of us will be immense."

Zhu Qiniang raised her eyebrows and her face was full of vigor. "Remember what I told you, throughout history, those who succeed don't calculate everything. Sometimes, you just have to move forward bravely without overthinking!"
