I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 75: Brothers in Crisis

The flying boat soared over countless mountains and headed towards the Red Sun Immortal City. Little did Lin Qing know that at this moment, the Lin Xuze brothers were facing the biggest crisis they had encountered since their training began.

"Who are you, and why are you targeting the two of us?" Lin Xuze looked at the Qi Refining ninth-level cultivator in front of him, his expression wary.

He and Lin Xuyuan were both at the sixth level of Qi Refining, with considerable strength. However, they felt somewhat inadequate when facing this unfriendly Qi Refining ninth-level cultivator.

"Who am I? You should ask your father!" The cultivator sneered, his words full of disdain and arrogance.

"Could it be an enemy of our father?" Lin Xuyuan looked at Lin Xuze.

Lin Xuze shook his head. Their father was always in the Red Sun Immortal City, so how could he have enemies here? Besides, if it was someone from the Xuan Yu Pavilion, they probably wouldn't have followed them here. This person had been sneaking around them earlier, and it was his tracking technique that detected something different. They discovered him in time, or else the consequences would be unpredictable.

Looking at this person, Lin Xuze continued, "We don't know you, and if you have a grudge with our father, why don't you go find him?"

Upon hearing Lin Xuze's words, the person remained silent. It was obvious that their father, who was currently at the Foundation Building stage, couldn't match up to him.

"Enough nonsense. You two have been slippery as eels, always hard to find. Today, I happened to run into you. It's not too late to beg for mercy now. Especially you, with one arm missing, you look like a three-legged toad. Maybe you were a toad in your past life." This person, for some reason, was becoming more and more excited, his words becoming more and more insolent. It was as if the Lin Xuze brothers were already in his grasp, and he could mock them as much as he pleased.

Upon hearing this person's words, Lin Xuze's expression became increasingly serious. Gradually, this seriousness turned into a kind of cruelty, which was then concealed, revealing a focused expression. The transformation of his facial expression in an instant was like that of a deranged lunatic.

Lin Xuyuan remained silent. He knew his brother well. Although he always joked about his missing arm, it was only acceptable for him to say it himself. He would never allow others to say it. This person's words had already angered his brother.

"What else do you two have in mind? Qi Refining sixth level is not bad, but I will let you know the true gap between us." This person stared at the Lin Xuze brothers, feeling somewhat uncomfortable in his heart.

"Enough talking!"

Lin Xuze activated his spiritual power, first throwing out several talismans, and then wielding a medium-grade spiritual weapon, a large knife. This was the weapon he had chosen for himself after losing his arm. Compared to a spiritual sword, this knife was quite heavy, and with one swing, it carried great momentum. Even a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator would have to temporarily avoid its edge.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuyuan activated his spiritual sword and coordinated with Lin Xuze to attack this person.

However, this cultivator was at the Qi Refining ninth level, not someone an ordinary late-stage Qi Refining cultivator could compare to. Moreover, he was quite wealthy and considered quite strong among Qi Refining ninth-level cultivators.

Upon seeing the talismans, he first activated a first-grade top-quality defensive spiritual weapon, then counterattacked with talismans, and finally drew his spiritual sword to strike at Lin Xuyuan.

After this series of actions, not only did this person instantly decipher the attacks of the Lin Xuze brothers, but he also spotted their weaknesses. Compared to Lin Xuze, Lin Xuyuan was much weaker, and this person intended to defeat them one by one.

Seeing the talismans being thrown back at him, Lin Xuze quickly defended himself, while Lin Xuyuan immediately fell into a disadvantage when facing this person's attacks. Unless something unexpected happened, Lin Xuyuan wouldn't last more than five breaths. The gap between the two was simply too great.

"Xuyuan, step back."

Lin Xuze successfully defended against the talismans and then took over Lin Xuyuan, facing off against this person.

Lin Xuyuan seized the opportunity to catch his breath and quickly adjusted himself, then cooperated with Lin Xuzhe. However, even the two of them couldn't gain any advantage against this person. Compared to the brothers Lin Xuzhe, this person seemed very relaxed, as if he was not exerting his full strength.

"Is this all you've got? It seems that your father will be heartbroken in the future," this person said with a smile.

Lin Xuzhe and Lin Xuyuan also knew that this was not a solution. They looked at each other and nodded, as if they had made a certain determination.

"Trying to escape? Wishful thinking!" This person launched a fiercer attack upon seeing their reaction.

However, the Lin brothers did not intend to escape. Facing a formidable enemy, fleeing in the face of battle would not only bring no benefits, but also expose their backs to the enemy, which would be a suicidal move.

After exchanging glances, the Lin brothers each took out a pill and swallowed it. Suddenly, their spiritual power increased by more than fifty percent, almost reaching the level of the seventh layer of Qi Refining.

Seeing this scene, the person at the ninth layer of Qi Refining couldn't help but show a hint of disdain. Compared to just now, the two at the seventh layer of Qi Refining had become much more formidable.

However...

"I'm afraid these pills won't last long for you two," this person said confidently. He had also heard of this kind of pill before. It could unleash one's potential when taken, but the side effects were enormous and it couldn't be sustained for long. It was something that cultivators would only use as a last resort.

The Lin brothers didn't say a word. They continued to wield their swords and swords without stopping, using the spiritual power brought by the pills to activate several talismans and throw them at this person.

"Quite troublesome," this person cursed inwardly. In his mind, dealing with these two at the sixth layer of Qi Refining should have been an easy task. He didn't expect to be entangled for so long and for these two to still not show signs of decline.

While this person was on guard against the talismans, the Lin brothers each took out another type of talisman from their storage bags.

These were second-grade inferior attack talismans, capable of delivering a blow comparable to the first layer of Foundation Building. As for why they didn't use them earlier, it was because activating these talismans consumed a huge amount of spiritual power, which was not feasible for those at the mid-stage of Qi Refining. Not only talismans, but formations and magical tools also had corresponding requirements for spiritual power. Otherwise, it would be a joke if someone at the first layer of Qi Refining could easily defeat someone at the later stage of Qi Refining just by holding second-grade formations, talismans, and magical tools.

At this moment, although they had taken the pills and temporarily raised their spiritual power to the level of the seventh layer of Qi Refining, they were still not true cultivators at the seventh layer of Qi Refining.

Lin Xuzhe and Lin Xuyuan struggled to activate the talismans, rapidly depleting their spiritual power. However, the talismans were gradually being activated.

While the person was on guard against the first-grade superior talisman that Lin Xuzhe had thrown earlier, he immediately dealt with several first-grade defensive talismans in front of him. Then, he activated several defensive talismans in succession, rapidly infusing his defensive magical tool with spiritual power, making it shine brightly.

"Boom! Boom!"

After two loud bangs, this person stood motionless in place. The defensive talismans were all destroyed, and the defensive magical tool lost its luster.

As for the Lin brothers, due to the consumption of their spiritual power from activating the talismans, they had now returned to the level of the sixth layer of Qi Refining. The side effects had begun to manifest, and their faces were filled with pain, almost collapsing to the ground. They could only rely on their swords and swords to support themselves.

"Hahaha!" Suddenly, a burst of laughter rang out.

"You have quite a few tricks up your sleeves, but do you think you can defeat me like this? What a joke!" This person at the ninth layer of Qi Refining was truly terrifying. Even after withstanding two second-grade inferior talismans, he could still speak.

"But you have truly angered me. I won't let you die so easily. I will torture you for a hundred days, making you beg for life but unable to die."
