Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 222: Names of People

On the Sword Testing Platform, Gao Xian reached out and grabbed the floating Wuxu Spirit Turtle Armguard.

The armguard was a thick and solid earthy yellow color, with a pattern of squares resembling the back of a turtle.

This third-grade magic treasure was made from Xuantu Turtle Shell and various high-quality materials, making it exceptionally hard.

Although the Lietian Bullet was powerful, it only shattered the shield activated by the Wuxu Xuantu Turtle Shield and did not harm the magic treasure itself.

Gao Xian tried to activate the Wuxu Xuantu Turtle Shield with his divine sense, but he felt an unusual sluggishness. It was like manually opening a locked car, relying solely on physical strength, and it felt extremely difficult.

He knew that the magic treasure had an owner who had left a powerful divine sense imprint inside. It would take some time to completely remove the divine sense imprint before he could control this treasure.

A third-grade defensive magic treasure like this was very valuable.

Even a second-grade top-quality sword would cost over a hundred thousand spirit stones. A third-grade Law Weapon would at least be several times more expensive.

Moreover, this was a third-grade defensive magic treasure with a perfect Heavenly Circulation Restriction. Gao Xian estimated that it would be worth at least seven to eight hundred thousand spirit stones, or even more expensive.

He didn't have a clear concept of third-grade items, so he was just making a rough estimate. In any case, this magic treasure was very, very valuable.

Gao Xian knew that this magic treasure was definitely hot, but he held onto it tightly.

He had risked his life to obtain it, and no matter who the original owner was, they wouldn't be able to easily take it back from him!

He wasn't greedy for wealth!

Gao Xian put away the Wuxu Xuantu Turtle Shield and then looked at the shattered Water Jade Rong.

He had integrated the power of nine Lietian Bullets into the last one, which allowed him to break through Water Jade Rong's protective robe and inner armor, completely shattering her.

It had to be said that Water Jade Rong's death was quite tragic.

Gao Xian glanced at it twice and didn't want to look anymore. In his heart, he silently explained to himself that despite the miserable appearance, she actually died very happily, ascending to heaven instantly without any pain...

He just hoped that in her next life, she would be a good person, mind her own business, and not blindly stand up for others.

Two black-clothed cultivators came to the Sword Testing Platform and skillfully used storage symbols to collect the bodies.

Using the Sword Testing Platform required a fee, and the handling of aftermath was included in these fees.

"Brother, you're amazing!"

Wan Yingying shouted loudly from below the platform, her little face filled with excitement and joy.

Actually, she had been scared just now, watching someone being shattered into pieces. The scene had a strong impact.

After calming down for a while, Wan Yingying finally realized that her brother had won a complete victory, which made her excitedly shout.

Gao Xian smiled at Wan Yingying and glanced at Zhou Ye, Da Niu, and Butler Li beside him.

Zhou Ye's face was full of horror, without any joy. Da Niu, on the other hand, was delighted. Steward Li's face showed some astonishment, seemingly shocked by his powerful spell.

As for Zhang Dongling and the others, their faces were gloomy, and a few Foundation Building cultivators still had lingering fear on their faces.

Zhang Dongling and Gao Xian's gazes met, and his instinct was to avoid it. But he quickly realized that something was wrong, and he coldly stared back at Gao Xian.

To his surprise, Gao Xian's gaze was calm, without any killing intent.

After nodding slightly, Gao Xian said, "It was an accident that Fellow Daoist Shui ended up like this. I truly feel sorry for him."

He then asked Zhang Dongling, "Will Fellow Daoist Zhang still come forward?"

Zhang Dongling fell silent. In theory, he should have gone up to fight.

Whether it was for the sake of competing for Wan Yingying, his own reputation, or for Shui Yurong's sake, he had to step onto the stage and fight.

Gao Xian's spell that broke through the Wuxu Xuanturtle Shield was indeed powerful, but the question was how much mana and spiritual consciousness he had left.

Now was the weakest moment for Gao Xian. Zhang Dongling had already prepared two powerful Law Weapons of the Earth and Water elements, as well as numerous talismans. It shouldn't be difficult to kill Gao Xian!

However, Zhang Dongling couldn't help but think of Gao Xian's eyes, which were as bright as stars, with a calmness like water deep within them.

Gao Xian's fire-based spells were fierce and violent. If he still had the strength to unleash another wave of the same spells, Zhang Dongling's two Law Weapons would not be able to withstand it.

If that were the case, it would inevitably lead to the same fate as Shui Yurong!

Zhang Dongling pondered, but ultimately, he didn't dare to take the risk. No matter how good Wan Yingying was, his own life was more important.

But letting Gao Xian go like this was also not an option!

Zhang Dongling had lived for over two hundred years. His talent in battle was average, but he was quite capable in political schemes. It was through stepping on others that he had climbed to his current position.

If he couldn't take action, he could still use his influence! The connections he had made over the past two hundred years were not fake.

Thinking of this, he looked at Zheng Ting and the others. His relationships with these friends were good, and they all had considerable power. It might not be possible for them to help him fight, but they were certainly skilled at bullying others.

Zhang Dongling said to Zheng Ting, "This person's evil techniques are formidable, he might be a demonic cultivator!"

Zheng Ting understood his meaning and quickly said, "Yes, this person is ruthless and his techniques are strange. He killed Fellow Daoist Shui as soon as they met, and his background is extremely suspicious!"

The other Foundation Building cultivators also understood. Zhang Dongling was afraid of Gao Xian and wanted to use the power of the sect to deal with him.

Regardless, the first step was to label Gao Xian as a demonic cultivator. Whether he was or not was not important. What mattered was to capture him first.

If Gao Xian dared to resist, they would join forces to capture him, and they might even kill him on the spot.

Zhang Dongling looked at everyone cooperating and breathed a sigh of relief while also sighing inwardly.

Such sinister methods couldn't be seen in the light, and they required everyone's cooperation, which was extremely troublesome. Especially afterwards, he would have to share whatever he gained with everyone, otherwise, why would others help him for nothing?

In the beginning, he would rather go to the Sword Arena than ask for help, and that's the reason.

But now there is no other choice, we can only unite the power of everyone to first take down Gao Xian.

It would be even better if Gao Xian resists, we can directly kill him on the spot, saving all kinds of aftermath.

Zhang Dongling and the others reached a tacit understanding. He pointed at Gao Xian and shouted, "Kid, where did you come from as a demonic cultivator? How dare you come to Qingyun City to kill people!"

Gao Xian immediately understood and sneered, "Fellow Daoist, aren't you being a bit too lowly?"

"Water Fellow Daoist is a pillar of our sect. If you weren't a demonic cultivator, why would you ruthlessly attack her?"

Zhang Dongling sneered, "You better surrender and come with me to the Law Enforcement Court. We will thoroughly investigate and will not let a demonic cultivator go, nor will we wrong a good person!"

"Based on you?"

Gao Xian brushed his sleeve and floated down from the Sword Arena. He casually asked the white-haired old man by his waist, "Steward Li, these people are abusing their power and falsely accusing good people. If I am forced to kill them in self-defense, wouldn't that be within the rules?"

Steward Li was shocked and quickly said, "Mr. Gao, there's no need for that, no need for that."

He then became serious and said, "These people are treacherous and despicable in their actions, I have seen it with my own eyes. Killing them is not excessive. It's just that Mr. Gao, as the son of a wealthy family, why bother with a group of despicable people?"

Gao Xian smiled. This Steward Li really knew how to speak. Clearly, he was afraid of him making a move, but he said it so tactfully that it made it hard for anyone to get angry.

He said, "It's not that I love to fight, but these people have pushed me too far. I have no choice but to fight back."

"Mr. Gao, please wait a moment. Let me handle this small matter."

Steward Li said, bowing and saluting to Gao Xian, showing a respectful and impeccable attitude.

Gao Xian was also a little curious. If Yun Qiushui were here, she might be able to intimidate these Foundation Building cultivators. This steward might not be enough to handle them.

But he didn't say anything. This steward Li was of such a mature and serious age, he probably wouldn't act recklessly.

Steward Li came to Zhang Dongling and the other Foundation Building cultivators. He politely nodded and greeted them.

"I am Li Ming, I have seen the esteemed cultivators."

Zhang Dongling and the other cultivators looked at Steward Li with some suspicion. This person was obviously a late Qi Refining cultivator, and his robe was of extremely high quality but very low-key.

Looking at Steward Li's demeanor, politeness mixed with rigor and restraint, it was obvious that he was a person of the steward class.

Zhang Dongling coldly said, "You, a lowly Qi Refining cultivator, also want to meddle in our affairs?"

"I dare not."

Steward Li respectfully said, "Mr. Gao is a friend of my master. Please give my master some face and let this matter go."

Steward Li's attitude was respectful, but his tone was unusually strong. Zhang Dongling and the other Foundation Building cultivators were both angry and surprised. Who was this person being so arrogant!

It should be noted that these Foundation Building cultivators were all in charge of various departments in the sect. Their status in the sect was not too high, but each of them held real power.

A group of people spanning across various sects and academies, who could make them all give face?!

The key is Gao Xian, a cultivator from a small and remote sect in the border wilderness. Who could he have befriended that is so formidable?!

Even the steward Li knew that these Foundation Building cultivators couldn't be intimidated by words alone. He took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Dongling with both hands.

The business card was made of bamboo, with the owner's name engraved on one side and the owner's seal on the other.

Zhang Dongling arrogantly took the business card with one hand. As soon as he saw the name on the card, his face immediately changed.

Turning over the card and looking at the seal on the back, he recognized the unique cloud pattern mark that he had seen before and left a deep impression on him.

In Qingyun City, no one dared to impersonate this identity.

Zheng Ting, Li Yunhe, and others were also curious about whose business card it was. The group of Foundation Building cultivators all had sharp eyes and easily saw the name on the card. Their faces all changed at the same time.

Li Yunhe could still barely remain calm. He was just here to show his support and didn't agree with Zhang Dongling's words earlier.

Even if that person cared about this matter, he shouldn't do anything to him. After all, that person was known to be reasonable.

But, it's better to be safe than sorry. With just a casual remark from such a big shot, he could be left with no place to bury himself.

Li Yunhe glared fiercely at Yun Chenglin beside him. In his heart, he also knew that Yun Chenglin couldn't possibly know about Gao Xian's hidden relationship. He was just overwhelmed by anger and couldn't control himself.

He immediately turned around and left without even saying goodbye to Zhang Dongling.

This time, the city gate caught fire and the fish in the pond suffered. Zhang Dongling was useless, not even understanding the situation of the target. He messed up blindly! Now he's going to play himself to death.

Other Foundation Building cultivators also wanted to leave, but they were close to Zhang Dongling and had shouted loudly just now. If they turned around and left now, they couldn't distance themselves from the situation.

Everyone's faces were ugly, and their eyes revealed a hidden panic.

When they looked at Zhang Dongling again, their eyes also showed some anger. They were going to be killed by Zhang Dongling!

Zhang Dongling's mind was also in chaos. This person was known for being proud and aloof. Many Gold Core cultivators found it difficult to befriend her, so how did she become friends with Gao Xian?!

He also resented Gao Xian. Since this person was his friend, they should have revealed their identity earlier. Why so much trouble now!

Zhang Dongling respectfully lowered his head and handed back the business card with both hands. He said in a hoarse voice, "It's all our ignorance that offended the friend of the true person. Please show us how to deal with it, Fellow Daoist..."

Seeing Zhang Dongling's humble attitude, Gao Xian was also a little surprised. Yun Qiushui is so dignified?

But he immediately realized that Zhang Dongling referred to the true person, so it must be Yun Qingxuan. He had always thought that this contact information was for Yun Qiushui!

Gao Xian glanced at Zhang Dongling and the others. Their humble and obedient posture was in stark contrast to their arrogant and domineering attitude just now.

He felt a bit disdainful of these weak and cowardly people! But he also felt a bit proud. Our friends really give us face!

He also felt a bit envious. Cultivators should be like this. Just by revealing a name, they can scare everyone...
