Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

67: Chapter 67 In the blink of an eye, all gone!”Attack! Finish this quickly!”

The great battle erupted in an instant!

Supreme Elder Qing Xu and Supreme Elder Xuan Yun, though alarmed, remained composed and each summoned their Lifebound Treasure.

Qing Xu’s Azure Sea Tide Sword and Xuan Yun’s Xuan Yun Demon Suppression Seal fought valiantly.

Sect Master Yun Yazi also gritted his teeth, channeling the power of his Golden Core to summon his Sect Master’s token, the Jade Ruyi, to assist in the fight.

Han Li circled on the periphery, waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

However, the disparity in strength was vast.

Wan Tuxiao was at the Peak Nascent Soul stage, wielding a top-grade Demonic Blade, his blade techniques fierce and overbearing.

Every slash carried the power of blood malevolence, and fighting two opponents at once, he firmly suppressed both Qing Xu and Xuan Yun.

The two Elders, Blood Soul and Bone Fiend, focused on Yun Yazi while keeping the two Grand Elders in check; their Demonic Techniques were treacherous and impossible to guard against.

The Azure Wave Sect side had already fallen into an absolute disadvantage, barely holding on.

Just at the critical moment when Supreme Elder Qing Xu risked taking a slash from Wan Tuxiao to create a counterattack opportunity for Xuan Yun.

Han Li, who had been circling on the periphery, saw a flash of malice in his eyes and suddenly erupted into action!

He did not attack the Sect Master Yun Yazi as instructed by Wan Tuxiao.

Instead, he unleashed the blow he had been gathering strength for, striking hard at the back of Supreme Elder Xuan Yun, who was fully occupied with defending against the sneak attack from Elder Bone Fiend!

”Junior Martial Uncle Xuan Yun, watch out!”

Yun Yazi’s eyes were splitting with rage, and he cried out, but it was too late to save him.

Supreme Elder Xuan Yun sensed the malicious wind attacking from behind and was struck with terror.

In his haste, he could only push his protective mystic light to its limit.

”Puff!”

The pitch-black Devilish Qi pierced into Xuan Yun’s protective mystic light; although most of it was neutralized, the remaining force still struck firmly against his back.

Supreme Elder Xuan Yun’s body shook violently, and his face turned pale instantly.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his Aura instantly withered by thirty percent.

”Han Li! You beast!” Seeing this, Supreme Elder Qing Xu was consumed by fury, and his sword stance wavered.

”Hahaha! Well done!” Wan Tuxiao laughed, taking the opportunity to make his blade strikes even more ferocious, forcing Qing Xu to retreat repeatedly.

Yun Yazi looked at the blood-spitting, Aura-declining Supreme Elder Xuan Yun, then at the grinning Han Li and the pressing members of the Demon Blade Sect, and a flash of determination crossed his eyes.

”Demonic Path scoundrels! I will fight you to the death!”

He was actually going to reverse his Golden Core and perform a self-detonation!

”Hmph, you want to self-detonate? Did you ask me first?” Elder Bone Fiend snorted coldly and flipped his hand to summon a ghastly white bone bell.

The bell shook lightly; no sound emerged, but an invisible fluctuation instantly enveloped Yun Yazi.

Yun Yazi felt his Divine Soul stiffen, and the Golden Core that was crazily reversing inside him seemed to hit an invisible wall, suddenly coming to a halt.

The resulting backlash caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood and collapse to the ground, with no strength left to resist.

Seeing this, Qing Xu and Xuan Yun were filled with extreme grief and despair.

Strong enemies in front, traitors within.

The Sect Master severely wounded, they themselves injured.

Trapped in a lethal Formation, it seemed they could not escape their fate today.

Wan Tuxiao raised his Blood Prison Slaughter Blade high, his killing intent chilling!

Just at this critical moment.

A calm voice appeared abruptly in this space sealed by the Formation.

”Interesting, truly interesting.”

Everyone, including Wan Tuxiao, froze, looking towards the source of the sound in shock.

They saw a figure standing quietly above the Formation space, though no one knew when they had arrived.

The person was dressed in a robe as black as night.

The style was ancient and simple, without any ornamentation.

Yet it naturally exuded a deep and majestic Aura.

His black hair was draped over his shoulders, and his face was covered by a five-colored demon mask.

There was no explosion of Aura, yet just by standing there, an invisible sense of oppression permeated the area.

Deeper than the abyss, more vast than the starry sky.

Such oppression!

Is it a Soul Transformation Cultivator?

Or even above Soul Transformation?

”Sen... Senior...” Wan Tuxiao forcefully suppressed the fear in his heart and bowed, saying.

”Junior Wan Tuxiao of the Demon Blade Sect is here dealing with some private Sect grievances. I did not know Senior had arrived, and I have caused much offense. I hope Senior will be magnanimous.”

”This...”

He had not finished speaking.

The Ghost had already raised his right hand and pointed into the air towards the three of them.

Under that finger, ripples appeared in the Void Realm.

Wan Tuxiao, Blood Soul, and Bone Fiend felt their Divine Souls locked by a great power in that instant!

Great Five Elements Primordial Tribulation Finger!

This was the strongest offensive technique Gu Yan possessed after his Breakthrough to Soul Transformation.

Condensing the power of the Five Elements, transforming it into a Primordial Tribulation, pointing directly at the Origin, destroying souls and spirits!

Pop...

Three faint, crisp sounds, as if bubbles had burst.

The three notorious Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Demon Blade Sect instantly turned to ash under the stunned gazes of the Azure Wave Sect members.

The Three Talents Soul-Locking Heaven-Severing Formation that had trapped them.

Having lost the maintenance of those who presided over the Formation, the blood-black Formation patterns quickly disintegrated.

The Ghost had his reasons for choosing to strike at this moment.

If he had struck when the three Azure Wave Sect members were unharmed, the favor would have seemed too cheap.

Only by letting them personally experience despair and taste the bitter fruit of betrayal and severe injury would this lifesaving favor, offered when they were in dire need, feel heavy and sufficiently valuable.

In the future, he could use this as a layout to better scheme against the Azure Wave Sect.

After glancing at the Azure Wave Sect members, the Ghost’s figure faded and quickly disappeared.

Of course, the Ghost had not truly left.

He simply continued to hide in the shadows.

His mission was already complete: save the people and eliminate the chief culprits of the Demon Blade Sect.

The remaining mess naturally had to be cleaned up by the Azure Wave Sect’s own people.

He only needed to ensure there would be no unexpected variables.

The Formation shattered, the strong enemies vanished into ashes, and they had found survival in a desperate situation.

The massive contrast left the three Azure Wave Sect members unable to collect their thoughts for a long while.

Until a scream filled with terror broke the silence.

It was the Deputy Sect Master, Han Li.

He had witnessed with his own eyes his backer being easily wiped away by that mysterious person as if crushing a bug.

He was already scared out of his wits, his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

At this moment, seeing the gazes of the two Grand Elders and the Sect Master directed at him, he knelt to the ground with a thud, tears and snot streaming down his face.

”Grand Elders! Sect Master! Spare my life! I was forced!”

”It was the Demon Blade Sect who threatened my entire family’s lives, so I had no choice but to work for them!”

”I still have feelings for the Sect, I... I know I was wrong!”

”Please, spare my life, I am willing to atone for my crimes and expose all the Demon Blade Sect’s hidden agents I know about!”

He wailed and begged for mercy, while his eyes darted around.

A light for escape quietly appeared beneath his feet; he was actually trying to take the opportunity to run away!

”Traitor! Where are you going!”

Although Supreme Elder Qing Xu was not lightly injured and had experienced great sorrow and joy, dealing with a Late Golden Core Stage Han Li was still easy for him.

He struck in anger, and the Azure Sea Tide Sword turned into a beam of azure light, moving faster than the target despite starting later.

Instantly sealing off all of Han Li’s escape routes.

With a roll of the sword light, he captured him.

”Cough, cough...” Supreme Elder Xuan Yun took a Medicinal Pill, barely suppressing his injuries.

Looking at the collapsed Han Li on the ground, killing intent boiled in his eyes.

”This villain deserves to die!”

Yun Yazi also struggled to sit up, weakly but firmly saying: ”Junior Martial Uncle, killing him now would be letting him off too easily.”

”The Demon Blade Sect has been operating in our Sect for many years; there is definitely more than just him as a hidden agent.”

”We need to take him back and interrogate him strictly; we must dig out all the hidden parasites and clean up the Sect!”

Supreme Elder Qing Xu took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to kill Han Li immediately, and nodded.

”The Sect Master is absolutely right. This person is still useful.”

He looked in the direction where the mysterious black-robed person had disappeared, then looked at the Dragon Fall Abyss, which was in shambles but had returned to calm; he felt lingering fear, and was also filled with confusion and gratitude.

”That Senior just now...” Supreme Elder Xuan Yun also looked into the sky, his tone complex.

”Who exactly was that expert? Why did they help us?”

”Judging by their methods, it was shocking and extraordinary. Killing Wan Tuxiao and the other two was like brushing away dust; they must be at least in the Late Stage of Soul Transformation, or perhaps even a Void Refining expert!” Supreme Elder Qing Xu sighed.

”As for why they helped... perhaps they were passing by, happened to stumble upon the Demon Blade Sect’s conspiracy, couldn’t stand it, and did it as a casual act.”

”The actions of such experts are often as they please, and not something we can speculate upon.”

Yun Yazi struggled to bow to the sky and said loudly: ”Junior Yun Yazi of the Azure Wave Sect, together with Junior Martial Uncles Qing Xu and Xuan Yun, kowtow to thank Senior for saving our lives!”

”Senior’s great kindness, the Azure Wave Sect will never forget!”

”We implore Senior to leave your name, and our Azure Wave Sect will surely remember it forever and offer worship day and night!”

The voice echoed in the abyss’s gale, but there was no response.

That mysterious Senior seemed to have really just been passing by.

”Perhaps it is that the Azure Wave Sect’s fortune has not yet run out, and there is some divine protection in the dark,” Supreme Elder Xuan Yun said with a bitter smile.

”Regardless, having survived this disaster, and with the internal trouble of the Sect now exposed, we must use thunderous means to purge the traitors!”
