I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Chapter 206: Chapter 188: Which One of You Is the Young Sect Master?!

"What if I kill you?"

Gu Yuan heard this and merely smiled faintly.

After capturing the red-haired youth, he was already in a position of invincibility in this battle.

Though Late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators are strong, they are still in the Foundation Establishment Realm, their position unchanged, their mana merely more formidable than mid-stage Foundation Establishment, allowing them to wield more powerful spiritual artifacts and Dharma Seals.

But he, cultivating Three Qi Refining, inherently possessed mana far surpassing others at the same realm, and with his methods greatly increased after the encounter on Extreme Yin Island, he might indeed be able to match against this person.

Even if the battle turns against him, he still has the "Young Sect Master" as a trump card.

"How dare you!"

The elder was furious, and he suddenly waved the red feather fan in his hand.

This feather fan was made from the life feathers of a Late Stage Earth Demon Fire Simurgh.

The Fire Simurgh was naturally adept at controlling fire, carrying a trace of a Great Demon’s Fire Phoenix bloodline, combined with numerous Spirit Pattern Restrictions, making the fan’s fire techniques extremely formidable. He had relied on this technique to battle multiple Late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators without being at a disadvantage.

"Boom!"

Scorching flames surged and transformed into a gigantic Fire Simurgh, majestic and extraordinary, screeching forth to meet Gu Yuan’s sword light.

"Bang!"

Sword light and flames suddenly collided, instantly raising a violent wave of fire in the sky, overflowing with Spiritual Qi.

This Fire Simurgh was truly formidable, its red flames mixed with purple true flames. Gu Yuan’s sword light encountered it and melted away, and the Golden Bamboo Sword emitted a faint mournful cry.

After all, the Golden Bamboo Sword was just a Middle-grade Spiritual Artifact, and when facing a High-grade Spiritual Artifact wielded with full force by a Late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it appeared somewhat lacking.

But the Fire Simurgh was also not well-off, its feathers shattered, appearing with sword marks, and its spiritual light dimmed considerably.

"Hoo!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan’s chest inflated, and he suddenly exhaled. The tattoo-like ice-blue Dao Pattern on his body suddenly lit up, and a huge surge of cold energy was expelled from his mouth.

Billowing frost, as if blowing from the polar regions, raised a gust of wind towards the Fire Simurgh.

"Screech!"

The Fire Simurgh let out a screeching sound, continuously spewing red-purple flames, covering the void.

But the Dao Pattern of the Star Spirit, born from heaven and earth, was extraordinarily marvelous. Although it was only at the mid-stage Foundation Establishment Realm, the cold was so intense that it froze with breath, immediately wrapped the already damaged Fire Simurgh in a layer of frost, and its spiritual light quickly dimmed.

All this seemed slow in narration yet occurred in merely an instant.

The elder hadn’t expected that his High-grade Spiritual Artifact, fully stimulated at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, would be so effortlessly dissolved by the young man before him.

And behind the young man, the aura of the Young Sect Master was becoming increasingly strange.

"Augmenting Spirit Seal!"

The elder dared not hold back; a blood-colored Dharma Seal within him suddenly lit up, and his complexion instantaneously turned crimson.

His mana also suddenly surged higher, increasing a considerable amount.

"Heaven-Burning Treasure Circle!"

He shouted angrily and rapidly summoned a fiery red treasure circle.

This treasure circle was no larger than a palm, yet it expanded with the wind and became over ten feet wide in the blink of an eye. It was adorned with colorful phoenix gold patterns, spiritual light radiating, and it suddenly rushed to imprison Gu Yuan.

"Buzz buzz!"

But Gu Yuan merely reached out a hand and tossed, and the Seven-Phase Exquisite Jade Tower rose to meet it.

The Heaven-Burning Treasure Circle contained extremely potent Power of Imprisonment, seeming like a Ring of Celestial Punishment forged by flames, enough to imprison a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and burn them to death.

Yet the Seven-Phase Exquisite Jade Tower merely trembled lightly, and a pure spiritual light instantly diffused, shaking the Heaven-Burning Treasure Circle away.

The protective spiritual artifact bestowed by Sword Fox Immortal was anything but mundane. Among Foundation Establishment, hardly any spiritual artifact could forcibly smash it.

"Such a powerful High-grade Spiritual Artifact!"

The elder was suddenly shocked in heart.

In the past, he had sparred several times with the Young Sect Master.

But the Young Sect Master’s Red Gold Shield seemed not as formidable as the tower before him.

This was truly a protective supreme treasure, not something a common Foundation Establishment cultivator could acquire.

Reflecting on the methods of the person before him, he harbored a bad suspicion.

"Who exactly are you?"

"My Fire Cloud Sect is a Golden Core Sect in the Western Sea Realm, with two Golden Core Ascendants within. Why must you oppose us?"

"After all, it’s just about a woman; you may take her away as long as you release the Young Sect Master!"

Several methods were blocked by the person before him, so the elder recognized that the person before him was no longer someone he could easily handle.

The tripod furnace could be found again, but the Young Sect Master’s life couldn’t have a second chance.

The urgent priority was to first rescue the Young Sect Master; otherwise, the wrath of the Golden Core, he absolutely couldn’t bear.

"If you had such awareness earlier, why bother going through the motions..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan merely shook his head slightly.

Beside him, the red-haired youth’s eyes were increasingly ferocious, a strange aura constantly spreading.

Once the Heart-devouring Insect parasites, the cultivator no longer has any chance of survival.

The soul and all memories would be devoured by the Heart-devouring Insect.

Gu Yuan’s actions foreshadowed that between them, it was either kill or be killed!

The red-haired youth appeared to be the type to seek vengeance for grievances.

If he saves Cen Qingqing today, it will surely be the end between him and the red-haired youth.

This is, after all, the Western Sea Realm, where the other party has Golden Core backers; if they escape unscathed, he may never return to the South Mountain Domain for the rest of his life.

Therefore, having decided to save Cen Qingqing, he must ensure loose ends are handled thoroughly.

Under no circumstance could he let the two leave Ten Thousand Islands Sea without harm.

"Do you truly want to oppose my Fire Cloud Sect?"

"Not hiding from you, the Young Sect Master has a Soul Lamp held by a Golden Core, and if anything goes wrong, you’ll never leave Ten Thousand Islands Sea alive!"

The Heart-devouring Insect is an Exotic Species, extremely rare. According to its own saying, there should only be one in the entire Ten Thousand Islands Sea. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Therefore, the elder did not recognize it, but seeing the increasingly bizarre aura of his Young Sect Master, he couldn’t help but threaten.

Gu Yuan did not answer, merely coldly staring at the elder.

"Kid, dreaming to kill me!"

Just then, Gu Yuan’s expression suddenly changed.

The elder noted his change but did not understand the reason.

Yet suddenly, the red-haired youth’s body began to burn with restless red flames, clearing his mind once more, then he shifted in space directly to the elder’s side.

"Elder Lux... save me!"

The red-haired youth shouted loudly behind the elder.

"Young Sect Master!"

The elder was first stunned, somewhat incredulous, his Divine Sense continuously surged, seemingly wanting to discern the person before him thoroughly.

He had just witnessed the Young Sect Master being drilled into the forehead by a four-winged green insect.

"Don’t doubt, I have a method granted by my grandfather. This little thief cannot capture me. Quickly kill him and take me away!"

But the red-haired youth shouted anxiously.

"Die!"

From afar, Gu Yuan also summoned the Spirit-Catching Jade Hook, black spiritual light swiftly rushing forward, giving the elder no time to think.

"Alright, alright, Young Sect Master, don’t worry. You are fine, I will show this little thief the means of late-stage Foundation Establishment!"

The elder comforted, his face also appearing ferocious. Inside, mana surged tumultuously, and an imprint suffused with red mist suddenly flew out.

"Bang!"

But just then, the elder’s expression suddenly changed.

Suddenly, behind him, the red-haired youth pulled out a black longbow, pulling hard, shooting towards the elder’s back.

Black arrows formed out of thin air, carrying overwhelming scorching power.

"Young Sect Master!"

The elder shouted angrily, hastily drawing out a red treasure mirror, layers of mirror light bursting, protecting himself.

"Which one is your Young Sect Master!"

"Old thief, you dare oppose the master, you’re courting death!"

The eyes of the red-haired youth filled with insect shadows, his pupils completely verdant, full of bizarre treachery.
