Chapter 119 Obtaining the Talisman Inheritance

After entering the dense forest, Chen Li extended his Divine Sense. Yang Ziyang was still struggling to hold on, two li away, fighting while fleeing.

Late Stage Qi Refining Demonic Path Cultivators were pursuing him from a few hundred meters away.

At this point, the dense forest was already five or six li away from the battlefield where the three spirit boats had been attacked.

Generally, the Divine Sense of a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator could not reach this far.

Chen Li stopped at this moment. After a few breaths, the three pursuers caught up. Seeing Chen Li stop here, they thought he had finally stopped running. It was impossible that the three of them could not defeat a mere Eighth Level of Qi Refining Cultivator!

Chen Li decided to deal with these three little tails first. The three men charged forward fiercely. The leader, who was at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, saw Chen Li standing still and thought he had resigned himself to his fate.

When he approached, the calamity severing saber had pierced through his heart before he even knew it, leaving him with an expression of utter disbelief!

The speed was so fast that it did not seem like the work of an Eighth Level of Qi Refining Cultivator; he truly had not reacted in time!

After piercing this person, Chen Li immediately pulled out the blade and struck two quick slashes at the two people behind him, killing them instantly!

The two men behind also watched the blade pierce their bodies, and they realized with horror that Chen Li was not at the Qi Refinement Stage, because they could not detect his cultivation level!

"You..." The leader of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining Demonic Path Cultivators only managed to utter this word.

Then, Chen Li directly released the Burial Fire, and the three Late Stage Qi Refining Demonic Path Cultivators were reduced to ashes.

Chen Li immediately flew rapidly in the direction of Yang Ziyang, sensing that Yang Ziyang's aura not far away was somewhat unstable.

A few li away, Yang Ziyang was in a sorry state, and the fifth-grade Talismans in his Storage Pouch were running low.

His defensive Talismans were severely depleted, with only five or six left. He still had seven or eight fourth-grade offensive Talismans, two fifth-grade offensive Talismans, and only four or five fourth-grade escape Talismans.

The three men were clinging tightly to him, making it basically impossible to escape successfully using escape Talismans. Every now and then, an attack would come, forcing him to dodge or condense energy from a Talisman to defend, which was extremely troublesome.

The three Demonic Path Cultivators on the other side were not having an easy time either. The three of them could barely withstand Yang Ziyang's fifth-grade offensive Talismans. The two sides were in a standoff again, with neither daring to step forward first.

At this moment, the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Demonic Path Cultivator sent a voice transmission to the other two.

"You two attack, I will find a way to get close!"

The two nodded, then unleashed long-range Demonic Path attacks. Yang Ziyang hurriedly took out two fourth-grade defensive Talismans. The Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Demonic Path Cultivator's figure instantly vanished from where he stood, transforming into five Blood Demon figures that fled toward Yang Ziyang.

The Blood Demons constantly changed their figures. Yang Ziyang activated his Divine Sense, but he could not identify which was the real body. He unleashed a fourth-grade offensive Talisman in one direction, and after the Blood Demon in that direction was struck, it dissipated.

He took out four more Talismans and blasted them in four directions. With four loud bangs, the four Blood Demon figures were blasted away. However, before he could pay attention, five Blood Demon figures quickly manifested again from one of the blasted directions and approached him.

Yang Ziyang had to guard against the other two Foundation Establishment Demonic Cultivators. Seeing the five Blood Demon figures approaching again, he used his remaining three fourth-grade offensive array Talismans to attack three directions.

Then he used one fifth-grade Talisman and threw it in one direction.

With only one Blood Demon figure left, he took out several defensive Talismans. The last remaining fifth-grade offensive Talisman was his trump card; if he used it, he would have none left!

The Blood Demon figure crashed into the energy condensed from his four Talismans, and the Blood Demon revealed its true form. As long as one of his Blood Demon figures was attacked, he would shift to another position.

Yang Ziyang had clearly underestimated the Demonic Cultivator's attack methods. After getting close, the Demonic Cultivator also took out a fifth-grade Demonic Path Talisman and blasted it directly onto the Talisman energy shield.

Then, combined with the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Demonic Path Cultivator's own attack, Yang Ziyang's defensive energy shield shattered!

The moment it shattered, he hurriedly took out his remaining few defensive Talismans, wanting to condense them again, but it was too late!

The Demonic Path Cultivator struck him, sending him flying with a single blow.

Yang Ziyang was slammed heavily onto the ground, spitting blood from his mouth. His internal aura was in chaos, and he felt like he could faint at any moment!

Is this calamity impossible to overcome? Is this all there is to my life?

At this moment, he could no longer hold on. He spat out a mouthful of blood and passed out, becoming unconscious!

Chen Li had just arrived, and seeing that Yang Ziyang had fainted, he thought, "That saves some trouble!"

The Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Demonic Path Cultivator saw that the person had fainted, and since there was no more suspense, he began to step forward to capture the Cultivator alive!

Suddenly, a spear flew over at an extremely fast speed. The Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Demonic Path Cultivator noticed it and wanted to dodge, but just halfway through his flight, the spear had already pierced into his thigh. Following closely behind the spear was a person, and a fire!

The two Foundation Establishment Demonic Path Cultivators behind saw this sudden change and hurriedly prepared to defend, only to see that person unleash two fires toward them as well.

The two used their own Devilish Qi to condense energy shields.

Chen Li immediately closed in on the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Demonic Path Cultivator. This Demonic Cultivator, ignoring his pain, immediately condensed his Devilish Qi and magical power to resist this fire attack.

Seeing the Burial Fire land directly on his energy shield, he could not believe that the Burial Fire pierced directly through his Devilish Qi energy shield and burned onto his head. Before he could react, he let out a miserable scream, and the Burial Fire burned all over his body!

The two Early Foundation Establishment Stage Demonic Path Cultivators behind were the same. With two miserable screams, the Burial Fire burned straight through them, and the three Foundation Establishment Demonic Path Cultivators were extinguished in an instant!

Chen Li wanted a quick victory, so he unleashed his ultimate move to end the battle rapidly!

The Burial Fire was truly terrifying; it was worth all the time he had spent cultivating this Burial Fire!

At the same time, he harvested the Storage Pouches of the three Demonic Path Cultivators. While the Burial Fire was burning them up, Chen Li took a hand at it—basic operation!

Chen Li cleaned up the battlefield and retracted the Burial Fire!

Then he quickly took Yang Ziyang away from the battlefield. Five li away, in his daze, Yang Ziyang seemed to see a figure destroy the three Foundation Establishment Demonic Path Cultivators!

However, when he tried to open his eyes, he was punched again and fainted once more.

Chen Li would not kill him. At the time, he had wondered whether to wait for the Demonic Path Cultivators to kill Yang Ziyang before making his move, but after thinking about it, he decided to save his life!

There was no grudge between them, they were on the same path, and the other party was pleasing to his eyes.

On a mountain peak five li away, Chen Li quickly probed into Yang Ziyang's Storage Pouch. One look and he was dumbfounded—there were so many Talisman legacies!

From Qi Refining up to Nascent Soul, everything was there, even things above the Nascent Soul stage. He had struck it rich!

This kid was also a child of Luck!

Chen Li took all these Talisman legacies. Seeing that there were also quite a few Spirit Stones, he took most of them, along with some Talismans, and left a few Talismans for him.

This could be considered the reward for Yang Ziyang's life being saved!

Chen Li searched his whole body again, found nothing else, and returned the Storage Pouch's token to him.

Then Chen Li dispersed his own aura and left with the items!

Yang Ziyang's Place of Opportunity concluded!

... ... Today is the last day of 2025. I wish all Fellow Daoists a healthy 2026, clear thoughts, and may everything go as you wish!
