157: Chapter 157 Double-crossing
Fang Huai still wanted to give the other party a chance to survive, so he said, "This humble one knows the rules. After purchasing the Medicinal Pill, I will naturally use a Memory Loss Talisman."
"Furthermore, my Aptitude is dull; it takes me a hundred years of cultivation just to reach Foundation Establishment. It is even more impossible for me to spend a few hours stealing Immortal Master's Alchemy techniques, so Immortal Master can rest assured."
Huang Long sneered, "What you say makes some sense, but what if the Memory Loss Talisman fails?"
Seeing that the other party had dropped the act, Fang Huai also sneered, "Is Immortal Master preparing for a dog-eat-dog scenario? Are you not afraid of my Family or the people behind me?"
Immortal Master Huang Long clapped his hands lightly, and all the Alchemy Cultivators stopped their work and gradually closed in on Fang Huai.
"A Cultivator who hasn't reached Foundation Establishment at 120 years old must not be from a powerful Family. Even if there is a Sect backing him, his status within the Sect must be mediocre."
"If we kill you, we'll just go somewhere else to practice Alchemy."
Fang Huai looked directly at him and said, "You would kill me just for four hundred Spirit Stones?"
"Since when is your petty life worth four hundred Spirit Stones?"
Immortal Master Huang Long waved his hand, and one of the Alchemy Cultivators immediately attacked Fang Huai with a spirit sword.
Fang Huai did not dodge; he just stared straight at him, making the man's hair stand on end.
"Die!"
The man's spirit sword thrust straight at Fang Huai's chest, but with a "bang," the spirit sword collided with Fang Huai's chest, emitting a crisp metallic sound before snapping into two pieces.
The Cultivator was dumbfounded. How was the other party unharmed while his own spirit sword had broken?
The corners of Fang Huai's mouth curled up; his finger bones protruded as he gripped the remaining blade of the spirit sword and twisted it into a pretzel.
"Dog-eat-dog, huh? Interesting. I like it."
"Looking at you cattle and horses, I originally felt some pity. It's a good thing you prepared for a dog-eat-dog scenario, as it has made me determined to slaughter you all."
Immediately, in the terrified gaze of that Cultivator, he punched through the other party's chest, summoned the other party's soul, and extinguished it with a squeeze.
Immortal Master Huang Long was suddenly alarmed. The Cultivator who was killed was named Sui Meng, and he was at Qi Refining Perfection. To think he couldn't even withstand a single exchange.
The person before him was definitely not at Qi Refining Perfection; he was absolutely pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.
Immortal Master Huang Long even felt that with his own strength, he might not be a match for this person either.
But he couldn't say it out loud. If he did, everyone would scatter, and the person before him would definitely shift his attention to him.
Better a dead Fellow Daoist than a dead poor Daoist; he would just let these Qi Refining Cultivators under his command take the brunt first.
"Everyone, this person is a Body Cultivator at Qi Refining Perfection. Sui Meng was careless, which is why he fell at this person's hands. Everyone, attack with all your might; we will definitely be able to kill him."
"Kill this person, and everyone will be rewarded with fifty Spirit Stones. The one who delivers the final blow gets a reward of one hundred Spirit Stones!"
Upon hearing that there were Spirit Stones to be gained, the remaining Alchemy Cultivators were all extremely excited and one after another unleashed Spells, bombarding Fang Huai.
Even Du Hai waved his spirit sword, and several sword beams slashed towards Fang Huai.
But just as they were attacking, Huang Long quietly moved his figure towards the teleportation Magic Array in the southeast corner.
"Spirit Light Shield!"
Facing the overwhelming Spells, Fang Huai did not move; he simply formed a hand seal with his fingertips, summoning a Spirit Light Shield.
"Bangβ"
The Spells bombarded the Spirit Light Shield, causing ripples to appear, but they were easily blocked.
Du Hai's voice trembled as he said to Immortal Master Huang Long, "Immortal Master, this person doesn't seem to be a Body Cultivator. Being able to withstand such Spell attacks, I fear he is a Foundation Establishment Cultivator."
What terrified him was that Immortal Master Huang Long's figure had already reached the southeast corner, and with a wave of his fingertips, he was about to activate the teleportation Magic Array to escape.
"Immortal Master, what are you doing? You cannot abandon us!"
Du Hai shouted in alarm, and the remaining Cultivators were also scared out of their wits, scattering and fleeing towards the teleportation Magic Array in the corner.
"A bunch of worthless rabble, just like that you want to run away?"
Fang Huai shook his head.
Refining addictive Medicinal Pills, engaging in dog-eat-dog business. He had thought they were bold people, but he hadn't expected them to be as timid as mice.
With such conduct, yet still thinking of dog-eat-dog, it was simply a disgrace to all Cultivators.
"Spiritual Light Sword!"
Fang Huai took out his spirit sword and shot out four sword beams, which respectively shot towards the four teleportation Magic Arrays in the room.
Hearing only four loud bangs, all four Magic Arrays were destroyed.
Immortal Master Huang Long and his subordinates stared at each other, their eyes full of terror.
Under such circumstances, Immortal Master Huang Long's Aura suddenly increased, and he roared, "Everyone, a strong enemy is before us! If we do not unite, we will surely perish. Only by working together to form an array can we have a glimmer of hope."
"Let us drink the spirit burning pill together today; it is not impossible for us to defeat this enemy."
His voice was tragic and heroic, immediately resonating with everyone present.
Du Hai muttered softly, "You were the one who ran the fastest just now."
Immortal Master Huang Long acted as if he hadn't heard him and continued tragically, "You all come from various Sects in the Chen Kingdom and are all discarded disciples of your Sects. It was I who took you in and gave you a place to make a living. I have always treated you as my children."
His gaze swept over everyone, his eye sockets turning red, "So, children, join your father in resisting the foreign enemy and fight for a path to survival!"
Having said that, over a dozen bottles of Medicinal Pills of various colors floated out from his Storage Pouch.
The mouths of the Medicinal Pill bottles opened, and Immortal Master Huang Long swallowed them down like pouring beans.
Li Zhu, draped over Fang Huai, almost laughed out loud. She endured the discomfort and wrapped herself tighter around Fang Huai, simultaneously transmitting her voice, "Brother, your Chen Kingdom is too funny. Can Cultivators not cultivate without acknowledging a few sons?"
Fang Huai transmitted back, "If you find it interesting, then I shall acknowledge you as my daughter."
Li Zhu hummed lightly, "That is quite unnecessary. Having Human Race parents is a shameful thing in the Monster Realm."
Immortal Master Huang Long's acting was truly clumsy, but under these circumstances, his words and actions indeed managed to infect the crowd.
"The Immortal Master treats me like a father; I swear to live and die with the Immortal Master!"
Under such circumstances, with the strongest, Immortal Master Huang Long, speaking up, the crowd acted as if they had grasped a life-saving straw and naturally did not care about his actions just now.
"Fellow Cultivators, follow me and kill!"
"Cinnabar Cloud Spirit Flame!"
Immortal Master Huang Long spat out the Cinnabar Cloud Spirit Fire he had been nurturing as his life-bound fire, attached it to his spirit sword, and charged straight at Fang Huai.
The Cultivators behind him also put on a look of facing death without fear and unleashed their Spells with all their might.
"Weak, too weak!"
When Fang Huai had just completed his Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, he was already able to kill Deng Zhong, who was at the Mid-Foundation Establishment Stage. How could he be killed by this group of Alchemy Cultivators with such low combat power?
"Netherworld Claws!"
With a sharp shout, countless ghostly white claws appeared out of thin air around the Cultivators, piercing through three low-cultivation Alchemy Cultivators on the spot.
At the same time, he grabbed Li Zhu, who was draped over him, with his hand, gave a forceful tug, and threw her straight at Immortal Master Huang Long.
Seeing Fang Huai's outer garment flying over, Immortal Master Huang Long thought it was some kind of Magic Treasure and hurriedly diverted the direction of the Cinnabar Cloud Spirit Flame, blowing it straight at Li Zhu.
Seeing that the spirit flame was about to burn the fox-fur outer garment, the garment suddenly "whooshed," soared into the air, and landed straight on top of his head.
"Not good, this is no ordinary Spiritual Artifact."
Immortal Master Huang Long was suddenly alarmed; he slapped his Storage Pouch, summoned a Spiritual Artifact, and slashed straight at the fox-fur outer garment.
But the outer garment dodged again, taking the opportunity to wrap around his arm.
