Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 247 - 247: 239: Golden Cloud Sword

Now, it was five powerful puppets all attacking Master Cang Jian at the same time.

Thereafter, a black tiger, only a pitch-black skeleton, also joined the fray.

The number of puppets surrounding Master Cang Jian had reached six.

The arrival of the Earth Dragon and Black Tiger put Master Cang Jian, who was already feeling exhausted, under even greater pressure in an instant.

An ominous feeling grew stronger in his heart.

At this moment, although he could still block the attacks coming from all directions, he had already lost the will to keep fighting.

Four spirit puppets, one Earth Dragon, and one Black Tiger.

He had already been beaten to the point of being unable to retaliate, only able to passively defend against them.

But He Song had yet to act.

To be able to control so many puppets to attack him, He Song’s cultivation must also be at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

At a time when he had been beaten to the point of being unable to retaliate and could only passively defend, there was still an Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator lurking outside.

With this situation, if he didn’t run away quickly, he’d surely be consumed and die here.

Master Cang Jian didn’t want to die — he’d just recently broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm and hadn’t had the chance to make a name for himself in the Immortal Path yet.

How could he be willing to die just like that?

However, it wasn’t so easy to escape, was it?

In order to lure him here, He Song had deliberately weakened his defenses before leading him to this place.

Now that Master Cang Jian had been trapped here, exposed and about to be killed…

How could He Song possibly allow him to leave?

Inside the Seven Kills Heaven Fire Array, Master Cang Jian’s face was filled with urgency, constantly throwing out spirit amulets, blocking the attacks of the puppets around him.

At the same time, he took out one elixir bottle after another from his storage bag, swallowing them all down to restore his mana.

He knew full well that if he continued to be worn down like this, his mana would soon be depleted.

At that moment, he wouldn’t have any power left to counter-attack.

Having no alternative, Master Cang Jian had to defend against the puppets’ attacks while trying to negotiate with He Song.

He started with threats, saying how powerful the Golden Sword Sect was, and that if He Song didn’t let him go, he might be dead in an instant.

After threatening for a while and realizing that He Song didn’t react, he changed his approach and began to negotiate politely.

He said that as long as He Song let him go, he would give all the items on his person to He Song, to be used however he wanted.

At the same time, he promised not to divulge what had happened or seek help from the Golden Sword Sect to kill He Song after he left.

However, He Song didn’t respond at all to this.

If he killed Master Cang Jian, all his belongings would be his anyway, and he wouldn’t have to worry about any repercussions from the Golden Sword Sect in the future.

If he let Master Cang Jian go now, he would probably gain a Foundation Establishment Realm enemy in the future.

The losses would outweigh the gains.

Seeing that this tactic was also futile, Master Cang Jian quickly changed strategies.

While defending against the puppets’ attacks, he began to beg He Song for mercy, saying things like being more magnanimous, letting him go like a fart, and so on.

At the same time, he tried to tempt He Song further by saying that he had accidentally discovered a cave mansion left behind by a deceased Foundation Establishment cultivator, and that as long as He Song released him, he would reveal the exact location of the cave mansion.

While saying this, Master Cang Jian even took out something resembling a map from his storage bag.

After showing it in front of him for a brief moment, he put it away, as proof that his words were true.

Seeing this situation, He Song shook his head.

Hadn’t he spent two years learning the Soul Searching Skill just for a moment like this?

Since Master Cang Jian had already revealed the location of the treasure, he would probably need to use the Soul Searching Skill on him later to find out more.

He Song remained unmoved by Master Cang Jian’s words and even decided to use the Soul Searching Skill on him when he was close to death, in order to obtain more detailed information.

After using both threats and persuasion without any response from He Song, Master Cang Jian realized that if he didn’t break free from this Illusion Array, he would likely meet his end here.

Thus, he decided to no longer bother talking, and while fending off the puppets’ attacks, he continually moved about, trying to find a weak point in the array to break free.

However, witnessing this scene only made He Song shake his head, disregarding it altogether.

The Smoke Array and the Seven Kills Heaven Fire Array he had set up were all formed using Array Disks and Array Banners.

Both the array disks and the array banners were personally refined by him and were extremely durable.

Not to mention a weak spot, even if Master Cang Jian really found one, breaking the disks and banners wouldn’t be an easy task.

And if Master Cang Jian were to be distracted, He Song could strike with thunderous force and kill him in one fell swoop.

By then, whether Master Cang Jian had found a weak spot in the array or not would be irrelevant.

With his eyes locked on Master Cang Jian, He Song wore a focused look, waiting for the moment when Master Cang Jian showed an opening to strike and kill him.

At one point,

While continuously walking, preparing to find the weak spot of the Array Skill, Master Cang Jian finally showed a hint of joy in his expression, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes. After searching for a long time.

Finally.

He found the weak point of the Smoke Array.

Based on his understanding of Array Skills, he only needed to launch a full attack on this weak D0int and destrov the Arrav Banners.

He would be able to break the Array Skill’s balance, making it instantly collapse.

However, at this moment, he did not know.

As he was locating the weak point of the Smoke Array, at this moment, He Song had already prepared the Arrow God Thorn, ready to launch a divine sense attack on him at any time.

At the same time, He Song’s hands were also forming seals and casting spells at this moment.

As soon as he attacked the weak point of the Smoke Array, in that split second, He Song will reward him with a Thick Earth Seal.

Thick Earth Seal, Arrow God Thorn.

These two Foundation Establishment Realm techniques that can be used as trump cards, both had great power among He Song’s learned skills.

First, use the Arrow God Thorn to break Master Cang Jian’s divine sense, causing it to tremble, making him dizzy and his fighting strength to greatly decrease.

Afterwards, use the Thick Earth Seal, with its extremely strong offensive power, to attack Master Cang Jian, who has been hit by an Arrow God Thorn, and is at his lowest point in combat strength.

In a situation where he was unguarded and having difficulty manipulating his Artifacts for defense due to dizziness.

Thick Earth Seal would definitely succeed in one strike, completely annihilating Master Cang Jian.

At the same time, He Song could also control spirit puppets to attack Master Cang Jian during this period of time.

With multiple attacks at the same time.

If Master Cang Jian is even slightly distracted, it will be a desperate situation for him.

With the plan flashing through his mind, He Song’s expression was focused, yet his gaze was locked onto Master Cang Jian.

He was just waiting for him to reveal a flaw, then he would strike like a bolt of lightning.

Inside the Smoke Array.

When Master Cang Jian located the weak point of the Smoke Array, he made a move in his heart but did not directly take action.

Instead, he casually summoned several Foundation Establishment spirit amulets in his hand.

These Foundation Establishment spirit amulets were all Defense Spirit

Amulets, which he believed could block spirit puppets for a few moments.

With these few moments, he could break the Illusion Array that affected his divine sense, allowing him to sense the situation around him.

Once he could extend his divine sense and probe the surroundings, the crisis before him might be resolved.

With a glimmer of hope flashing through his heart, Master Cang Jian had a

thought, and the several Thick Earth Spirit Amulets in his hands floated up and enveloped him tightly.

At this very moment.

Master Cang Jian used mana to control the mana swords and let out a fierce shout.

“Golden Cloud Sword, break it for me!”

With this fierce shout, a strong red-gold light emerged from the enormous mana sword controlled by Master Cang Jian, enveloping the surroundings.

The red-gold light was like the sun, even erasing many of the Heavenly Fires that were constantly approaching Master Cang Jian.

There suddenly appeared an empty area around him.

At the same time, as the red-gold light became stronger, the seals in Master Cang Jian’s hands changed.

The enormous mana sword swung down hard towards the front.

The red-gold light dyed the enormous mana sword into red-gold, dragging along a long afterglow.

The mana aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm also became extremely sharp at this moment.

Golden Sword Sect was originally a sword cultivation sect.

Master Cang Jian was the Foundation Establishment Master of the Golden Sword Sect.

Although his cultivation was not high, only at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, when he performed the ultimate sword technique of Golden Sword Sect, the power was immense.

The red-gold enormous mana sword, like a pillar of heaven, slashed down in front of him.

The red-gold sword qi swept across all directions, instantly erasing the surrounding mountains and land.

However.

At this moment, He Song made his move.

When Master Cang Jian focused all his attention on the attack on the weak point of the Smoke Array.

He Song hesitated no more and cast the Arrow God Thorn.

As soon as Arrow God Thorn was cast, He Song’s divine sense instantly transformed into an arrow-like divine sense attack, charging towards the location of Master Cang Jian.

The divine sense was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, the divine sense attack launched by He Song had landed on the Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet outside Master Cang Jian’s body.

Foundation Establishment spirit amulets have a strong ability to protect against mana.

However, their defense against divine sense attacks is somewhat weak.

Unless it is a Foundation Establishment spirit amulet specifically designed to defend against divine sense attacks, otherwise, the defense effect of regular Foundation Establishment spirit amulets against divine sense attacks is not strong.

After casting the Arrow God Thorn.

He Song only felt a slight resistance coming, and in the next moment, his divine sense pierced through the Foundation Establishment spirit amulet defense utilized by Master Cang Jian as if piercing through tofu.

And in the next instant, it ruthlessly stabbed into Master Cang Jian’s Mud Palace Pellet.

Next moment.

The Arrow God Thorn’s divine sense attack exited from the other side of Master Cang Jian’s Mud Palace Pellet.

After making a turn, it quickly returned to He Song’s Mud Palace Pellet, completing this divine sense attack.

Arrow God Thorn.

Effective in one shot.

At the same time, Master Cang Jian, who was originally casting the Golden

Cloud Sword trying to break the weak point of the Smoke Array, suddenly let

out a scream of pain.
