Chapter 350: Chapter 51: Instant Kill of a Third-Level Golden Core Cultivator
“Body Refinement Cultivator!”
“How is this possible?”
“You, with such powerful Divine Sense, how can you possibly be a Body Refinement Cultivator…?”
At that moment, the middle-aged cultivator who had been sent flying back looked towards Lin Jing with eyes full of terror and disbelief.
It was also at this time that he finally reacted.
A shield-shaped Magical Treasure was summoned, placed in front of him for protection.
However, by the time this Magical Treasure was summoned, Lin Jing had already taken advantage of the speed burst from being a Body Refinement Cultivator and once again arrived beside the man.
One could see a dazzling purple light above the man’s head, defending against Lin Jing’s Divine Sense attack, while the shimmering green light from the shield in front of him was intended to block Lin Jing’s close-combat assault.
Knowing that Lin Jing was a Body Refinement Cultivator, he channeled all his Spiritual Power into defense. He was even unable to allocate Spiritual Power to stabilize his own injuries.
Seeing this situation, Lin Jing gave the middle-aged cultivator a wicked smile, yet he didn’t throw a punch at all.
After that.
Lin Jing quickly formed hand seals, and suddenly, a burst of multicolored divine light erupted from within the man, abruptly engulfing him.
This burst of multicolored divine light was exactly what Lin Jing had sent into the man’s body with that punch he had landed earlier.
Under the assault of the multicolored divine light, the man’s face was stricken with fear, and without even a chance to resist, he began to rapidly dissipate.
Without the protection of Spiritual Power, he had absolutely no power to resist.
And in his last moments, the middle-aged cultivator’s eyes, besides being filled with extreme terror, also held a deep grudge against Qi Gui, the Elder.
Just like that, in the instant that the battle had commenced, this Golden Core third-level middle-aged cultivator was slain by Lin Jing.
It had taken less than a single breath of time.
……
Afterward, Lin Jing reached out his hand and directly collected the middle-aged cultivator’s Storage Bag, the shield-shaped Magical Treasure, and the Void Soul Bead.
Having finished all this, Lin Jing then looked towards the direction where Yan Wanfei and Qi Gui, the Elder, were located.
Lin Jing saw…
Qi Gui, the Elder, now had several bloody holes in his body, from which blood was profusely pouring out…
However, he was completely ignoring his injuries, his face filled with horror as he stared at Lin Jing.
Yan Wanfei, holding the silver-white long spear, was also dumbstruck, gazing at Lin Jing.
The tip of his silver-white long spear was dyed red with blood, which was dripping down drop by drop along the spear’s edge.
Yan Wanfei had indeed managed to stab a few holes into Qi Gui, the Elder.
“Holy shit…”
“Lin… Brother Lin, you… you’re too fierce.”
“Seriously, I mean holy moly…”
“You’ve hidden your power too deeply.”
Yan Wanfei’s attention was completely captured by Lin Jing, to the point where he even forgot the enemy before him.
If it weren’t for Qi Gui, the Elder, who was also staring at Lin Jing with a face full of fear as if seeing a ghost,
Yan Wanfei, in his current state, would have likely already fallen to a sneak attack.
After that.
Lin Jing flew towards the two men.
Seeing Lin Jing make a move, Qi Gui, the Elder, finally snapped out of it.
He then, without a second thought for his own injuries, turned around and fled.
But Yan Wanfei was still looking at Lin Jing with an admiring gaze.
“Niu San, the man is running, what are you doing?”
Upon hearing Lin Jing’s reprimand, Yan Wanfei finally snapped back to reality and looked toward Qi Gui, the Elder, who was already escaping.
“Fuck…”
“We absolutely can’t let this ‘old bastard’ get away, otherwise it will be a huge problem, and Brother Jiu will never let me off the hook.”
Yan Wanfei finally reacted and hurriedly gave chase after Qi Gui, the Elder.
Although Qi Gui, the Elder, had mid-stage Golden Core Cultivation, he had been severely injured by Yan Wanfei, which significantly affected him, slowing him down a bit.
Seeing Yan Wanfei’s pursuit, Qi Gui, the Elder, suddenly turned around, concentrating all his Spiritual Power, and conjured a black skull head several zhang in size.
“Vile Poison Fog, explode!”
At Qi Gui, the Elder’s loud shout, the skull head burst in front of him.
Upon the explosion of the skull, numerous dark brown clouds of poison fog instantly spread. Yan Wanfei, caught off guard, was directly enveloped by the poison fog.
Fortunately, he had a layer of protective Spiritual Power that initially resisted the poison fog. However, upon contact, the poison eroded away that protective shield.
Seeing that the poison fog was about to reach him, Yan Wanfei quickly retreated, staying clear of the poison fog’s range, no longer daring to continue the chase.
The poison fog spread rapidly and its range continued to expand, soon threatening to block both pursuers’ path.
If they were delayed by the poison fog, Qi Gui, the Elder, might indeed have a chance to escape.
Lin Jing, without any hesitation, took a step and burst forth with the utmost speed of a Body Refinement Cultivator, circumventing the poison fog, and again pursued Qi Gui, the Elder.
The explosive speed of a Body Refinement Cultivator was certainly fast, but it was not sustainable and could only be used to close in on an enemy during combat.
Lin Jing’s actions were purely to intercept Qi Gui, the Elder; letting him get away would indeed be disastrous.
……
When Qi Gui, the Elder, saw Lin Jing bypass the domain of the poison fog and reappear, his eyes at first flashed with panic, but then he quickly understood what was happening and calmed down.
At this moment, Lin Jing had just exerted that extreme speed and could not possibly burst forth again in a short period of time, otherwise his body would be the first to fail to withstand it.
Even so,
he was still significantly faster than the injured Elder Qi Gui.
Clearly, Elder Qi Gui understood this too.
As he recovered from his panic, he stopped fleeing and instead took out a talisman from his Storage Bag.
This talisman was full of golden light, and it was densely covered with numerous purple patterns.
The moment Lin Jing saw this talisman, he understood what was going on.
“Great Teleportation Charm!”
The one Elder Qi Gui held was indeed the costly Great Teleportation Charm, one of the third-order talismans.
Even the lowest grade Teleportation Talisman would have a teleportation distance of at least several tens of kilometers. If he were to use the Great Teleportation Charm to leave this place, it would be hard for the two of them to catch up in a short time.
Seeing Elder Qi Gui take out the Great Teleportation Charm, Lin Jing did not dare to delay any longer.
He immediately burst forth at speed again, charging towards Elder Qi Gui.
However, this time, Elder Qi Gui was prepared. Countless black mists emerged from him, swirling around his body.
Without any hesitation, he began to activate the Great Teleportation Charm in his hand.
Seeing this, Lin Jing couldn’t afford to hesitate either. He activated his Overlord Body, covering his form with a layer of golden light, and charged straight at Elder Qi Gui.
Seeing Lin Jing recklessly rushing towards him,
Elder Qi Gui was first startled, then a struggle flashed through his eyes, but within moments, he calmed down.
He fully channeled his Spiritual Power, solidifying the black fog around him, while continuing to activate the Great Teleportation Charm in his hand.
The purple patterns on the Great Teleportation Charm grew brighter and brighter until they were fully lit, indicating that Elder Qi Gui was about to be teleported away.
And Lin Jing, at this point, was still at a distance from Elder Qi Gui, looking as if he would not be able to catch up…
Hence, Lin Jing abandoned the idea of charging into the black mist and directly stimulated the Five Elements Divine Art.
A slightly different multicolored stream of light instantly shot out, flying towards Elder Qi Gui.
This multicolored light moved exceedingly fast, piercing through the black mist in an instant and entering Elder Qi Gui’s body.
Just at this moment, the Great Teleportation Charm was successfully activated, teleporting Elder Qi Gui away.
This multicolored light was different from the one that had just slain the middle-aged Cultivator; it required Lin Jing’s constant manipulation to inflict damage on Elder Qi Gui.
Now that Elder Qi Gui had been teleported away, Lin Jing was unable to make the multicolored light inside Elder Qi Gui’s body harm him.
But, since Lin Jing had used this move, he naturally had his reasons.
The multicolored light, though it could not harm Elder Qi Gui, would remain inside his body.
And Lin Jing felt a faint connection with that multicolored light.
Therefore,
the moment Elder Qi Gui was teleported, Lin Jing was alerted. Though not sure of his exact location, he could sense the general direction of his position.
Just after Elder Qi Gui was teleported away, Yan Wanfei finally circumvented the poison mist and came beside Lin Jing.
“Where’s that ‘old geezer’?”
As soon as he arrived, Yan Wanfei looked around and, seeing no trace of Elder Qi Gui, hastily asked Lin Jing.
“He used the Great Teleportation Charm to run away,” Lin Jing replied.
“Damn, Great Teleportation Charm…”
“What should we do next?”
Yan Wanfei looked towards Lin Jing, his brows furrowing.
If Elder Qi Gui had really fled, that would complicate matters.
If Elder Qi Gui were to disrupt their mission all of a sudden, all their efforts would be in vain.
Most crucially, it was his oversight that allowed Elder Qi Gui to escape.
If Lu Youjiu were to find out, a beating would be unavoidable.
At this thought, Yan Wanfei felt a headache coming on.
But, Yan Wanfei felt this couldn’t all be blamed on him. If there was someone to blame, it could only be Lin Jing for his astonishingly egregious performance.
A Cultivator of the third level of Golden Core was instantly killed by him, a Cultivator at the first level of Golden Core.
And it was a genuine instant kill, taking not even the time of a breath.
One must know that duels between Golden Core Cultivators, unless the gap was truly vast, would not end until heaven and earth turned dark and all cards were on the table.
Who could have known that Lin Jing would be so abnormal?
How could he not be shocked?
……
No sooner had Yan Wanfei finished speaking, Lin Jing then said to him:
“No worries, I left a mark on him. I know his approximate location, and he’s already injured. If we pursue now, we might still catch up.”
“Brother Lin, you… you’re just amazing…” Upon hearing this, Yan Wanfei couldn’t help but praise Lin Jing.
Lin Jing quickly cut off Yan Wanfei’s words and said:
“Don’t talk about that now; let’s hurry and give chase. The mark I left won’t last long, and it can be easily removed. We need to be quick.”
“Okay…” Yan Wanfei nodded.
After that, Lin Jing sensed the general direction of the mark, and then, together with Yan Wanfei, they gave chase…
