Zhou Shuiyun was extremely nervous when he saw Wu Tian rushing towards him with the firebird in front of him. He was surprised that Wu Tian was able to transform his immortal sword so proficiently, despite just recently gaining cultivation in the Nascent Soul stage. It seemed like Wu Tian didn't have the cultivation level of the Divine Separation stage, but rather that of the Nascent Soul stage.
Without time to think about anything else, Zhou Shuiyun's flying sword transformed into ice arrows and instantly met the firebird. The surroundings were divided into extreme cold and extreme heat. With Wu Tian's reckless support of his true essence, the firebird tilted its head and seemed to screech, spewing out a mouthful of true fire that melted the ice arrows over a large area in an instant. Zhou Shuiyun's flying sword, which was connected to his primordial spirit, suffered a heavy blow, and his primordial spirit was immediately injured, causing him to cough up blood.
Zhou Shuiyun's face turned pale and he finally began to feel fear, an emotion that he couldn't suppress no matter how hard he tried. His eyes wandered around, as if he wanted to escape.
Wu Tian was also in a difficult situation, with his true essence being heavily depleted. Fortunately, he now had a semi-immortal body, and he quickly absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy to replenish his true essence. Wu Tian guessed that the Golden Silkworm Butterfly was probably lingering around because he had a semi-immortal body.
Seeing Zhou Shuiyun's expression, Wu Tian knew that this guy wanted to escape. Zhou Shuiyun immediately launched a powerful Divine Separation stage spell, Ice Explosion, towards Wu Tian, with a blast radius covering kilometers. This was indeed a good escape strategy.
"Hmph... you think you can come and go as you please? Do you think it's easy to bully me, a disciple of the Tianyan Sect?" Wu Tian was angry. Did these guys who were stronger than him think they could bully him so easily? If he could defeat them, he would fight, and if he couldn't, he would retreat. If he were an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, he would have been wiped out already.
Immediately, Wu Tian released his immortal sword, which had a soul, and transformed it into a firebird controlled by the Theses. It swooped towards Zhou Shuiyun, who had just started to flee. This time, the pressure brought by the immortal sword was unexpectedly great, making Zhou Shuiyun feel fear and a sense of imminent death enveloping her.
Regardless of fleeing, Zhou Shuiyun quickly took out a defensive magic treasure and replenished her true essence vigorously, hoping to withstand the attack. As long as she could withstand it, she would immediately flee. She thought that with Xia Xueyi taking care of Wu Tian, he probably wouldn't chase after her. Zhou Shuiyun comforted herself with this thought.
Seeing the firebird enveloping the defensive treasure, Zhou Shuiyun arrived at a place with an unimaginable high temperature. Her clothes began to char, and she immediately used her true essence to form a protective shield around her body.
After all, an immortal treasure was still an immortal treasure, and an immortal treasure with a soul was even more powerful. As a result, the defensive shield quickly cracked on a large scale under the firebird's attack, and the entire firebird seemed to devour Zhou Shuiyun within its flames.
Zhou Shuiyun endured the extreme heat and used her flying sword to attack the firebird, hoping to create an opening. However, as soon as the flying sword flew out of the defensive shield, the surrounding true fire quickly approached the flying sword.
Taking a deep breath, a red light flashed in Wu Tian's eyes as he made a move that shocked Xia Xueyi and Zhou Shuiyun.
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
Wu Tian released another immortal sword, controlling two immortal swords at the same time requires a huge amount of true essence support and a powerful elemental spirit. Fortunately, Wu Tian's Yuanying is very special, at least for now Wu Tian cannot say for sure, but when the immortal sword was released, he only felt that the true essence was flowing out twice as much, without any other adverse effects.
When Zhou Shuiyun saw Wu Tian release another immortal sword, his heart sank. One sword was already too much for him to handle, how could he withstand two swords? Looking at the defense shield that was about to shatter, Zhou Shuiyun really didn't know if he could afford to buy so many immortal treasures now.
Who is this guy from the Tianyan Sect? How could he carry so many immortal treasures with him? The Tianyan Sect seemed to have only a few of them. How come this guy has three pieces on him?
This time, Wu Tian's immortal sword did not transform, but shot rapidly towards Zhou Shuiyun, bombarding the defense shield. The defense shield, which was already broken into pieces, was instantly destroyed.
Puff... The flying sword hit Zhou Shuiyun's left shoulder, instantly blasting it open. The Firebird directly enveloped Zhou Shuiyun's body.
Ah...
A miserable scream...
It's really tit for tat. He just said he wanted to burn Xia Xueyi with True Fire, and now he's burned by True Fire himself.
"The Tianyan Sect, I will never let you go...." Wu Tian sneered at Zhou Shuiyun, who was wrapped in True Fire. Such intimidation was useless and would only weaken his own face. Wu Tian intensified his true essence, and True Fire burned Zhou Shuiyun's body fiercely. The immortal sword directly crushed Zhou Shuiyun's Yuanying.
Wu Tian's body shook and fell from the sky. Xia Xueyi rushed over immediately. After half a day of recovery, he had regained some true essence.
When he came to Wu Tian's side, Xia Xueyi breathed a sigh of relief. Wu Tian's true essence had been greatly consumed, but he was not seriously injured. It was not easy to hurt someone who wore immortal armor. Xia Xueyi was about to greet Wu Tian when he saw him stand up quickly, eat a few Returning Yuan Pills, and grab Xia Xueyi's shoulder, saying, "Quick, let's go...."
They flew away quickly from low altitude.
Just as they left, five figures flew towards them.
"Damn, we were still too slow and let them escape. Damn it, Wu Tian, I will make sure you suffer." Li An roared in anger.
It turned out that Li An had fled with his junior brother, but he suddenly remembered who Xia Xueyi's senior was. Last time, when he went to the Tianyan Sect, Senior Nanhua showed him Wu Tian's image and said he would help find Wu Tian. After obtaining some information, Li An promised to notify the Tianyan Sect if he saw Wu Tian.
According to what Senior Nanhua said, this guy has only been cultivating for more than 20 years, how could he have reached the Separation and Integration Stage? He must have a treasure that hides his realm.
Since that guy has so many immortal treasures, they must have been given to him by Senior Nanhua, and if he returns to the sect, the sect will definitely protect him. After thinking it through, he immediately brought his junior brothers back.
When Li An arrived, Wu Tian and the others had already left. Upon examining the traces of the battle, Li An knew that Zhou Shuiyun was dead. His mouth twitched slightly, "This guy was really something. He was able to kill a mid-stage Separation and Reunion expert." Before that, Zhou Shuiyun had fought with Xia Xueyi, but after all, she was also an expert in the Separation and Reunion stage.
Wu Tian must have been injured when he killed Zhou Shuiyun. Now, Li An had to catch up with them quickly while he still had a chance.
Xia Xueyi was still puzzled why her senior brother didn't take the time to recover before fleeing with her. However, she was suddenly attacked by five powerful auras. She was shocked and wondered how her senior brother had detected them before she did. It was incredible that he was able to fight without reaching the Separation and Reunion stage.
Wu Tian was in a difficult situation. He had to take Xia Xueyi and flee immediately before his true essence could fully recover. As a result, their speed was much slower. Fortunately, Wu Tian chose to fly at a low altitude, which prevented them from being discovered. He had the Nine Dragon Cauldron to hide their aura, but Xia Xueyi did not, and she was at risk of being discovered at any moment. They had to find the teleportation array quickly.
"Do you know where the teleportation array is?" Wu Tian asked urgently.
Xia Xueyi immediately nodded and pointed ahead, "It's 2,000 kilometers away."
