Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

”To think you could deceive my perception—what a strange ability!”

Lin Zheyu watched the enchanting woman escape from his grasp, filled with astonishment.

He was certain he had just clutched the woman’s neck.

Yet, she used some eerie ability to deceive his perception, making Lin Zheyu willingly release his grip.

This ability was different from a Soul Secret Skill, and Lin Zheyu couldn’t quite comprehend its mechanism; the complexity of it surpassed his current level of understanding.

If not for his perception field becoming more terrifying the closer it was to him, he might not have realized how he let her go.

He would have just assumed that he was tricked by her Secret Technique, having grabbed merely an illusion.

”Hehe, the young master is truly handsome!”

Hu Xuefei’s charming laughter reached him.

Lin Zheyu narrowed his eyes, contracting his perception field to cover a range of about two hundred meters around him and pushing it to the limit.

In his sight, Hu Xuefei’s seductive figure flickered in and out, shifting about as if it were just an illusion.

Suspended in the sky, Lei Yongtao watched this scene with a somber expression, looking rather displeased.

However, he made no further moves.

In the recent confrontation, Lei Yongtao had used quite a few trump cards, yet they didn’t cause much harm to Hu Xuefei—in fact, Lei Yongtao himself suffered notable losses.

’Truly worthy of the Heart Charm Demon Fox clan, they are indeed strange,’

Lei Yongtao murmured to himself.

He didn’t plan to continue fighting; the recent probing was enough.

Ji Ziyang tested the talents of the Barbarian Race, while he tested the talents of the Ancient Demons, through many tentative battles that rose and fell within the Demon God Barrier.

”A Martial Artist?”

”Somewhat unfamiliar—is he a new powerhouse of the Martial Alliance...”

Lei Yongtao contemplated as he watched Lin Zheyu below him.

The presence of a Martial Artist here didn’t surprise Lei Yongtao at all.

After advancing to Martial Arts Innate, a Martial Artist who didn’t switch to Immortal Dao but instead pursued the Immortal Martial path had a significant advantage within the Demon God Barrier environment.

Although Lin Zheyu’s aura was somewhat peculiar, it was strikingly similar to the Martial Artist aura Lei Yongtao was familiar with.

”Martial Dao may be coarse, but against a Heart Charm Demon Fox, it’s unlikely to fare well.”

Lei Yongtao shook his head lightly.

The Heart Charm Demon Fox excelled in enchantment and illusions; even Martial Artists on the Immortal Martial path usually possessed strong wills.

But facing the innate Divine Techniques of a Heart Charm Demon Fox can’t be resisted by willpower alone.

He didn’t hurry to leave, instead leisurely hovering in midair, watching Lin Zheyu and Hu Xuefei.

After all, Hu Xuefei was still an Alien Race; if Lin Zheyu fell into danger, Lei Yongtao wouldn’t mind stepping in to help.

”Young master is much sturdier than any other Martial Artist I’ve seen!”

”You’re making my heart itch!”

Hu Xuefei swayed her graceful body, and in Lin Zheyu’s vision appeared eight figures—each alluring, or pitiful, or pure, or a cold beauty, each different.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with intensity as she looked at Lin Zheyu, as if she wanted to devour him whole.

As a Heart Charm Demon Fox, her method of cultivation was unique even among Ancient Demons, and she had a strong desire for mighty beings like Lin Zheyu, who possessed formidable Qi Blood and physique.

In Hu Xuefei’s perception, this man before her had terrifyingly strong Qi Blood and physique, and just sensing it made Hu Xuefei involuntarily clamp her legs together.

”An Ancient Demon?”

”Are they all illusions?”

”No, they don’t seem like it.”

Lin Zheyu softly spoke as he observed the phantom images before him.

His heart was full of caution; the eight distinct and seductive figures before him didn’t seem like mere illusions.

Each figure seemed real, yet all were false in the strangest way.

Suddenly, Lin Zheyu felt a chilly, soft touch on his chest.

A fragrant scent filled the air, accompanied by a warm breath near his ear.

”Young master, would you like to play with me?”

”It feels very nice, you know!”

Hu Xuefei suddenly appeared beside Lin Zheyu, whispering sweetly in his ear.

The touch was unbelievably real, yet Lin Zheyu knew it was false; an unknown force had distorted his five senses.

Found it!

Lin Zheyu’s lips curled up slightly.

Despite its oddity, Lin Zheyu’s perception field was not to be underestimated; at such close proximity, he finally sensed where Hu Xuefei’s true body was.

”Sure!”

Lin Zheyu replied with a smile, as True Essence erupted fiercely within him.

Shoo—

A sharp blade flash suddenly appeared from the darkness, as the keen edge sliced across smooth, snow-white skin, causing blood to spray forth.

A cry of surprise and pain sounded out.

Hu Xuefei’s illusions vanished instantly, a pink Escape Light flashed and disappeared into the darkness.

”Even with that, she got away!”

Lin Zheyu watched Hu Xuefei’s vanishing figure, feeling a bit regretful.

For a moment there, he was genuinely tempted.

However, Lei Yongtao was still eyeing him menacingly nearby; otherwise, if Lin Zheyu fully unleashed his power, he would have had a decent chance of capturing Hu Xuefei.

She seemed to be an Ancient Demon.

The Ancient Demons were naturally strong in physique, and given her allure, bringing her back as a bedmate wouldn’t be a bad choice either.

Due to his overwhelming strength, Lin Zheyu hadn’t visited a brothel in a long time.

”Such skill, my friend!!”

”I am Lei Yongtao of the Lei Family; may I know your name, friend?”

Lei Yongtao snapped out of his astonishment, moved closer to Lin Zheyu, and greeted him with a cupped fist.
