Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

Chapter 381 - 192: The Power of Wind Spells Unleashed

Apart from Chu Ning, the remaining three were almost instantly killed by the magical auras without any defense.

The white light that struck towards Chu Ning was blocked by the flame shield surrounding him.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this, the burly man couldn’t help but let out a light sound of surprise.

The next moment, he seemed to instantly understand.

"Foundation Establishment Cultivator!"

As he spoke, he and the horse-faced cultivator attacked Chu Ning simultaneously with several spells.

They were fast, but Chu Ning was faster.

Almost as the double fire ring shield blocked the attack, Chu Ning’s magical power fluctuated violently around him.

The child ring in his hand had already flown out, attacking the burly man.

At the same time, a long spear appeared in Chu Ning’s hand.

With the Fire Phoenix Feather Spear in hand, Chu Ning shot towards the horse-faced cultivator.

As he swung it, the sound of a tiger’s roar emanated from the spear.

In that instant, a demon tiger made of flames appeared on the spear.

Chu Ning’s initial attack was a fierce killing move, catching even the burly man and the horse-faced cultivator, who were middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, off guard.

By the time the fire ring and the spear reached them, their expressions changed drastically as they retreated, activating their protective shields.

However, it was all too slow!

The child ring of the double fire ring pierced through the burly man’s defense shield, then struck him directly.

It hit precisely at the location of the man’s Dantian.

Instantly, the powerful destructive force shattered the Dantian within his body.

Immediately, flames surged from his Dantian, engulfing his entire body in flames.

Simultaneously, the tip of Chu Ning’s Fire Phoenix Feather Spear pierced the horse-faced cultivator’s defense.

The flame demon tiger on the spear lunged forward with a low roar, instantly devouring the horse-faced cultivator.

With a single strike, Chu Ning directly killed two Foundation Establishment cultivators.

But at this moment, Chu Ning felt no joy.

Because the moment they clashed, it had already been noticed by others.

Several escape lights were rushing over swiftly from not far away.

Among them, one was astonishingly fast, arriving just as Chu Ning finished off the two.

It was Chen Chengzong at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

As soon as he arrived, he already had a knife in hand.

As he swung it, a blade light flew out, attacking Chu Ning.

Chu Ning immediately swung the Fire Phoenix Feather Spear, sending a flame demon tiger to meet the blade light.

At the same time, Chu Ning flew backward, intending to escape.

Engaging in further battle was clearly not wise at this moment.

The demon tiger and the blade light collided, and flames consumed the blade light.

The next moment, the flame demon tiger scattered, but the blade light also completely vanished.

Seeing this, Chen Chengzong’s eyes flickered, a look of astonishment and suspicion appearing on his face.

His gaze grew colder as he chased after Chu Ning, swinging the knife from afar, sending a black light towards Chu Ning’s back.

Although Chu Ning was fleeing, his divine sense constantly monitored the movements behind him.

When he saw the black light, his expression turned serious.

"Yin Demon Slash!"

Chu Ning was not unfamiliar with the black light.

It was the Yin Demon Slash used by the Yin Demon Sect disciples he had previously encountered.

However, Chu Ning didn’t believe that the Yin Demon Slash from Chen Chengzong, a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, would be the same as those others.

Not daring to let the Yin Demon Slash hit him directly, Chu Ning swung the Fire Phoenix Feather Spear again.

A flame demon tiger charged towards the Yin Demon Slash.

At the same time, a yellow light flashed on Chu Ning’s body, and behind the layer of flame shield, another layer of magical power shield manifested from a talisman.

The demon tiger met the black light and scattered apart.

But unlike before,

the black light did not disappear, instead continuing to attack Chu Ning and shattering the yellow shield surrounding him.

Then, it struck the flames surrounding Chu Ning.

However, the Yin Demon Slash, having been weakened several times, could no longer harm Chu Ning under the flame defense of the double fire ring mother ring.

It didn’t even affect Chu Ning’s flying escape.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Ning had already fled twenty zhang away, increasing the distance from Chen Chengzong.

Seeing Chu Ning withstand the Yin Demon Slash, Chen Chengzong’s face changed slightly, then he snorted coldly:

"If you really escape today, I, Chen Chengzong, would no longer be able to stand in the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands.

Protector Qiu, please inform other sect allies to help stop him!"

As Chen Chengzong spoke, a middle-aged scholar had already arrived.

Upon hearing Chen Chengzong’s words, he immediately sent a message out.

Meanwhile, Chen Chengzong’s body surged with blood energy, forming a blood shadow as he pursued Chu Ning.

The speed was so fast, it was almost comparable to Chu Ning’s Divine Wind Escape.

But to Chu Ning’s surprise, Chen Chengzong’s pursuit was different from those who consumed Blood Evil Pills to forcibly accelerate by burning essence blood.

It really seemed like he was using some escape technique.

"Thankfully, I learned this Divine Wind Escape, otherwise I would have been caught in the blink of an eye."

Thinking this to himself, Chu Ning did not feel any sense of relief.

Because although his Divine Wind Escape was faster than Chen Chengzong’s speed, it wasn’t enough to completely shake him off.

Meanwhile, not far ahead, he saw that two cultivators were approaching him.

Judging by their aura, they were also Foundation Establishment cultivators.

It was clear they were coming for him.

Realizing that any delay would allow Chen Chengzong to catch up, Chu Ning’s eyes flickered slightly.

However, his speed did not decrease at all, and his figure turned into a rainbow in the air.

In the blink of an eye, he was already less than ten feet apart from the two Foundation Establishment cultivators ahead.

The two Foundation Establishment cultivators had already stopped, standing in the air, one on the left and one on the right.

Simultaneously, they took out their magical artifacts to attack.

They seemed to form a pincer attack with Chen Chengzong coming from behind.

Chu Ning continued his flying escape, while his hands gestured towards the two.

Two invisible streams of energy formed between Chu Ning’s hands.

The two in front, seeing Chu Ning’s actions, couldn’t fathom it.

However, their hands didn’t stop, and they launched their spell attacks.

But at this moment, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators felt an invisible force binding them.

Before they could react, they were drawn together by this force.

They were suddenly pushed towards each other, reducing their separation from ten feet to almost nothing.

The spells they had just launched flew directly at each other.

This sudden change left both of them in shock.

They quickly channeled their magical power to stabilize themselves, controlling their spells to change direction.

However, doing so meant those spells lost their aim.

Seizing this opportunity, Chu Ning’s figure flashed past them.

As he passed them, he activated the Wind-Attracting Technique once more.

Immediately, their figures were drawn forward several more feet.

It placed them right in front of the rapidly approaching Chen Chengquan.

The spells the two had launched were directed at Chen Chengquan.

Chen Chengquan, caught off guard by Chu Ning’s maneuver, had to activate a defense shield upon being attacked by the two Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Though their attacks did no harm to his defense, it delayed Chen Chengzong just enough for Chu Ning to flee far away.

"Damn it!"

Witnessing this, Chen Chengzong’s face turned livid with anger.

He glared at the bewildered two cultivators in front of him, then transformed into a blood shadow to pursue Chu Ning in the distance.

Chen Chengquan knew well there was a speed gap between him and the others.

If he continued like this, he would likely lose track of the pursuit.

Meanwhile, Chu Ning, ahead, let out a breath of relief.

This maneuver had completely widened the gap.

Given their escape techniques, losing them with a few circles wouldn’t be difficult.

He could then head straight to Jade Spring Island.

"But by doing so, I’d be leaving behind everything in my cave mansion."

Chu Ning sighed to himself.

Most things didn’t matter much, except for the Alchemy Furnace from the Ancient Sect Ruins.

And the Iron Soul Flower and Flame Wood Twin Fruit in his medicinal garden.

The array set around the cave mansion couldn’t be taken along.

Despite his wealth, Chu Ning felt reluctant to leave them.

But reluctance aside, his life was most important.

As Chu Ning quickly shifted his thoughts to that.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted from the Thousand Illusion Island behind him.

The sound was so loud that both Chu Ning and the pursuing Chen Chengzong couldn’t help but turn to look.

In fact, both inside and outside Thousand Illusion Island, upon hearing the loud bang, all looked towards the island.

There, a crimson beam of light surged into the sky from the island.

It painted the entire sky above Thousand Illusion Island red.

"Goo!"

Simultaneously, with the sound, a massive Black Fire Vulture-winged Crow rose into the sky.

From its mouth spewed black flames dropping onto the crimson beam.

Soon, the crimson beam condensed into a massive scarlet orb suspended in the air, resembling a sun stained with blood.

The Black Fire Vulture-winged Crow opened its mouth again, swallowing the scarlet orb whole.

"Goo!"

With the scarlet orb swallowed, it let out an excited cry, echoing for miles.

Instantly, the cultivators near Thousand Illusion Island turned pale in shock.

Countless cultivators watched, stunned, unsure of what to do.

Meanwhile, behind Chu Ning, Chen Chengzong displayed an excited expression.

"The Blood Evil Yin Demon Array’s essence blood refinement is complete!"

He waved his hand, sending a crimson light skyward.

The next moment, the Black Fire Vulture-winged Crow, seemingly receiving the signal, flew rapidly in that direction.

Seeing this, Chu Ning’s face changed drastically, and he channeled all his magical power, activating Divine Wind Escape to flee farther away.
