jǐn guǎn xīn zhōng bù gān yǐ jí , kě yě zhǐ néng yǎn zhēng zhēng de kàn zhe méi yǒu huán shǒu zhī lì 。
尽管心中不甘以极,可也只能眼睁睁的看着没有还手之力。
Despite his reluctance, he could only watch helplessly as the opponent had no means to retaliate.
cǎn jiào shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ , zhè wèi kǒng pà shì shù bǎi wàn nián lái yǔn luò dé zuì yuān wǎng de dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě 。
惨叫声传入耳朵,这位恐怕是数百万年来陨落得最冤枉的洞玄期修仙者。
A mournful cry reached his ears. This must be one of the most unjustly fallen Immortal Cultivators in millions of years.
xiān dào jiān sè , tā yě bù zhī dào chī le duō shǎo kǔ , hǎo bù róng yì cái zǒu dào zhè yī bù , jiù dōng hǎi de qíng kuàng lái shuō 。 chēng yī shēng tiān zhī jiāo nǚ yě bù wèi guò 。 yǐ tā de tiān zī , xiū wèi shèn zhì yǒu kě néng zài jìn yí bù , kě yù jiàn zhè yàng dǎo méi de shì qíng , zì jǐ yòu néng rú hé , hái bú shì kū dōu zhǎo bú dào dì fāng kū 。
仙道艰涩,她也不知道吃了多少苦,好不容易才走到这一步,就东海的情况来说。称一声天之骄女也不为过。以她的天资,修为甚至有可能再进一步,可遇见这样倒霉的事情,自己又能如何,还不是哭都找不到地方哭。
The path of cultivation was arduous; she didn't know how many hardships she had endured before reaching this point, especially considering her situation by the East Sea. She could easily be called a daughter of heaven. With her talent, her cultivation might have progressed further. But facing such bad luck, what could she do but cry in vain?
zhè chōng fèn zhèng míng liǎo 。 dāng yí gè rén dǎo méi de shí hòu ” nà biàn shì hē liáng shuǐ , yě yǒu kě néng sāi yá fèng 。
这充分证明了。当一个人倒霉的时候”那便是喝凉水,也有可能塞牙缝。
This fully proved that when someone was unlucky, even drinking cold water could cause them to choke.
bù guò huàn yí gè jiǎo dù , yù jiàn zhè yàng de bō zhé , suī shì yùn qì de yuán gù , dàn shuō chuān le , hái shì zì jǐ shí lì bù zú , jiǎ rú fēn fāng fū rén néng gòu dǐ yù xiān rén zuì zhī dú , nà jié jú yòu huì shì liǎng yàng le 。
不过换一个角度,遇见这样的波折,虽是运气的缘故,但说穿了,还是自己实力不足,假如芬芳夫人能够抵御仙人醉之毒,那结局又会是两样了。
However, viewed from another angle, encountering such setbacks was due to bad luck, but at the end of the day, it still came down to her own insufficient strength. If Lady Aroma had been able to resist the Poison of Immortal Drunkenness, things might have turned out differently.
fēng shòu lǎo zhě yě shì yī xīn hěn shǒu là zhī tú , jì rán dòng shǒu , jiù bú huì tuō ní dài shuǐ shén me , suī rán méi yǒu jiāng fēn fāng fū rén chōu hún liàn pò , dàn què pēn chū yīng huǒ 。 jiāng tā de yuán yīng liàn huà wéi huī jìn diào le 。
丰瘦老者也是一心狠手辣之徒,既然动手,就不会拖泥带水什么,虽然没有将芬芳夫人抽魂炼魄,但却喷出婴火。将她的元婴炼化为灰烬掉了。
The lean and thin old man was no stranger to ruthless actions; once he made his move, there would be no hesitation. Although he did not draw out her soul or refine her essence, he still spat out infant fire, reducing her yuan婴 (core) to ashes.
duì fāng lián zhòng rù lún huí de jī huì yě wú , gèng bú yào shuō 。 yǐ hòu zhǎo zì jǐ bào fù 。
对方连重入轮回的机会也无,更不要说。以后找自己报复。
Not only had the opponent lost any chance of reincarnation, but they also couldn't seek revenge in the future.
dāng rán , duì fāng de chǔ wù dài , tā yě bú huì fàng guò , shuō qǐ lái , zhè cì hái zhēn shì hǎo shì chéng shuāng , bù jǐn dà chóu dé bào 。 ér qiě hái néng zuàn de pén mǎn bō mǎn de 。
当然,对方的储物袋,他也不会放过,说起来,这次还真是好事成双,不仅大仇得报。而且还能赚得盆满钵满的。
Of course, he wouldn’t let go of their storage bags either. This was truly a stroke of luck; not only did he get his revenge, but he also made a fortune.
dà tīng zhōng de xiū xiān zhě , jì rán shì lái cān jiā pāi mài huì 。 nǎ yí gè bú shì dài le dà liàng de cái huò , zǒng bù chéng shì kōng shǒu lái kàn rè nào de 。
大厅中的修仙者,既然是来参加拍卖会。哪一个不是带了大量的财货,总不成是空手来看热闹的。
The cultivators in the hall who had come to participate in this auction were all bound by their powers. Despite that, their eyes widened with shock as curses echoed around them.
zuò wéi dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě , yí gè rén de shēn jiā , huò xǔ tā hái bù fàng zài yǎn lǐ , dàn yǎn qián qiān yú míng gāo jiē xiū shì de cái huò jiā zài yì qǐ , nà jué duì shì yí gè jīng rén de shù zì 。
作为洞玄期修仙者,一个人的身家,或许他还不放在眼里,但眼前千余名高阶修士的财货加在一起,那绝对是一个惊人的数字。
But words couldn’t help. The lean and thin old man exuded killing intent from every pore. With a sharp command: "Quickly!"
jiàn fēn fāng fū rén zì bào jiā mén , yī jiù yǔn luò , qí yú de xiū xiān zhě , wú bù liǎn sè dà biàn le , tā men yòu bú shì bái chī , dāng rán xiǎo de zì jǐ kěn dìng bú huì yǒu xìng lǐ 。
见芬芳夫人自报家门,依旧陨落,其余的修仙者,无不脸色大变了,他们又不是白痴,当然晓得自己肯定不会有幸理。
Instantly, the leaf-shaped flying knives like a storm of rain swept towards the immobile cultivators, spraying blood everywhere. Those cultivators who could not even muster one-tenth of their power were silenced as they met their end.
jīng nù zhī yú ” yí gè gè pò kǒu dà mà bù yǐ 。
惊怒之余”一个个破口大骂不已。
Not only did their physical bodies perish, but their yuan婴 (core) was also destroyed by those flying knives.
“ xìng mò de , nǐ làn shā wú gū 。 bì bù dé hǎo sǐ 。”
“姓墨的,你滥杀无辜。必不得好死。”
"Haha."
“ bù cuò , nǐ ruò jiāng wǒ shā le , dà yé wǒ jiù shì zuò guǐ , yě bú huì jiāng nǐ fàng guò 。”
“不错,你若将我杀了,大爷我就是做鬼,也不会将你放过。”
The lean and thin old man’s face showed satisfaction. He wasn’t out to kill indiscriminately; he just didn't want his identity exposed. A petty mind is not a gentleman; without poison, one cannot be a hero. Now that all the cultivators participating in the auction had perished, who would know it was him?
“ tiān dào xún huán , nǐ huì zāo bào yìng de 。”
“天道循环,你会遭报应的。”
It was flawless!
“ mò qián bèi ” zhāng mǒu yǔ nǐ wú yuān wú chóu , hái wàng dào yǒu gāo tái guì shǒu 。”
“墨前辈”张某与你无冤无仇,还望道友高抬贵手。”
He flicked his left hand, and a large amount of light rays flew out, swirling around the hall. Instantly, countless storage bags floated up.
jiào mà shēng bù jué yú ěr , lǐ miàn què yǒu jiā zá zhe jǐ jù qiú ráo zhī yǔ , tīng shàng qù gǔ guài yǐ jí , bù guò zhè yì diǎn yě bù xī qí , bì jìng měi gè rén de xiǎng fǎ shì bù yí yàng dì 。
叫骂声不绝于耳,里面却有夹杂着几句求饶之语,听上去古怪以极,不过这一点也不稀奇,毕竟每个人的想法是不一样地。
Picking one at random, he delved into its contents with his divine sense. A look of joy flashed in his eyes; as expected, the quantity was substantial.
suī rán dà bù fèn xiū xiān zhě , cǐ shí cǐ kè , yǐ xīn cún jué wàng le ” rán ér bì jìng hái shì yǒu jí shǎo shù , bào zhe jiǎo xìng de xīn lǐ , xī wàng duì fāng néng gòu dà fā cí bēi , bú yào jiāng wú gū de zì jǐ , gěi qiān chě jìn qù 。
虽然大部分修仙者,此时此刻,已心存绝望了”然而毕竟还是有极少数,抱着侥幸的心理,希望对方能够大发慈悲,不要将无辜的自己,给牵扯进去。
He only glanced through it briefly since there wasn’t enough time to inspect thoroughly. However, another problem arose: how could he carry all these storage bags?
kě xī zhè yī qiè dōu shì tú láo dì 。
可惜这一切都是徒劳地。
The spatial rules prevented one storage bag from being placed inside another.
bù guǎn shì jiào mà yě hǎo , hái shì qiú ráo yě bà , gān shòu lǎo zhě , quán dōu shì ruò wú dǔ 。 gēn sǐ rén yǒu shén me hǎo zhì qì , zài tā yǎn lǐ , zhè xiē rén mǎ shàng jiù yào yǔn luò , zì jǐ hé bì guǎn tā men zài shuō shén me 。
不管是叫骂也好,还是求饶也罢,干瘦老者,全都视若无睹。跟死人有什么好制气,在他眼里,这些人马上就要陨落,自己何必管他们在说什么。
A saying goes, "Even a hundred precautions can be missed." The old man had considered every possibility before acting but overlooked this issue.
xiù páo yī fú , yī jiàn fǎ bǎo fēi lüè ér chū , guāng yùn yī shǎn , yī bǐng bǐng liǔ yè xíng zhuàng de fēi dāo fú xiàn ér chū ” nǎi shì yóu cǐ bǎo de wēi néng yǔ tiān dì yuán qì hùn hé xíng chéng de 。
袖袍一拂,一件法宝飞掠而出,光晕一闪,一柄柄柳叶形状的飞刀浮现而出”乃是由此宝的威能与天地元气混合形成的。
His brows furrowed in concentration.
duì yú dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě , méi yǒu shén me chū qí zhī chù , rán ér shù liàng tài jīng rén le ” jū rán cái qī bā bǎi zhī duō 。
对于洞玄期修仙者,没有什么出奇之处,然而数量太惊人了”居然才七八百之多。
But time was of the essence. After a moment’s hesitation, he took off his outer robe and turned it into a large bundle to stuff all the storage bags inside.
nán dào shuō ……,…
难道说……,…
This method seemed incredibly crude, but there was no other way; he had to do it.
zhòng xiū shì fǎ lì suī rán bèi jìn gù 。 dàn yǎn lì yī jiù zài de 。 yí gè èr gè , liǎn shàng jiē lù chū hài rán zhī sè , pò kǒu dà mà shēng cǐ qǐ bǐ fú 。
众修士法力虽然被禁锢。但眼力依旧在的。一个二个,脸上皆露出骇然之色,破口大骂声此起彼伏。
The repelling spatial rules were truly annoying.
rán ér kǒu shé zhī lì méi yǒu yòng chǔ 。 fēng shòu lǎo zhě hún shēn shàng xià shā qì pēn bó , qīng chì yī shēng :“ jí !”
然而口舌之利没有用处。丰瘦老者浑身上下杀气喷薄,轻叱一声:“疾!”
A single garment couldn’t hold them all, so he combined several pieces of clothing to form a large bundle. All the storage bags were packed without any left behind.
dùn shí ” nà xiē liǔ yè fēi dāo rú bào fēng zhòu yǔ , xiàng zhe nà xiē bù néng dòng tán de xiū shì kuáng sǎo ér qù , xuè huā fēi jiàn ér chū , kě lián nà xiē xiū shì lián yì chéng de fǎ lì yě wú fǎ tí qǐ , dà mà shēng gā rán ér zhǐ , rén rén jià hè guī xī 。
顿时”那些柳叶飞刀如暴风骤雨,向着那些不能动弹的修士狂扫而去,血huā飞溅而出,可怜那些修士连一成的法力也无法提起,大骂声嘎然而止,人人驾鹤归西。
"Phew."
bù jǐn ròu shēn yǔn luò , lián yuán yīng yě méi yǒu jī huì táo tuō 。 bèi nà liǔ yè fēi dāo jiǎo chéng le fěn mò 。
不仅肉身陨落,连元婴也没有机会逃脱。被那柳叶飞刀搅成了粉末。
The old man exhaled in relief as he carried this large bundle out. It was certainly noticeable, but it didn't matter. The highest cultivators within the market were only at the yuan婴 (core) stage; their strength would only allow them to catch a glimpse before dying. There was no way they could discern his identity.
“ hē hē 。”
“呵呵。”
If not for the vast size of the market and the numerous cultivators inside, he might have attempted to clear out everyone completely. But now, he had to settle for this.
gān shòu lǎo zhě liǎn shàng lù chū mǎn yì zhī sè , tā bìng bú shì xiǎng yào làn shā wú gū , zhǐ shì bù xī wàng shēn fèn bào lù , liàng xiǎo fēi jūn zǐ , wú dú bù zhàng fū , rú jīn suǒ yǒu cān yù pāi mài de xiū shì quán dōu yǔn luò , shuí yòu xiǎo de 。 zhè jiàn shì qíng , qí shí shì zì jǐ gàn de 。
干瘦老者脸上露出满意之色,他并不是想要滥杀无辜,只是不希望身份暴露,量小非君子,无毒不丈夫,如今所有参与拍卖的修士全都陨落,谁又晓得。这件事情,其实是自己干的。
He tied the bundle securely and slung it over his back. Then, with a flick of his sleeve, a large purple-red flame flew out. His intention was straightforward: to erase all traces of the auction. Even if some cultivators tried something last-minute, their efforts would be futile now.
tiān yī wú fèng !
天衣无缝!
With full confidence in his demonic flames, he cast them without hesitation and turned into a streak of light, flying down the stone steps behind him.
tā zuǒ shǒu yī dǒu , dà piàn de guāng xiá zài cì fēi lüè ér chū 。 zài dà tīng zhōng yī juàn , dùn shí 。 wú shù de chǔ wù dài , fēi le qǐ lái 。
他左手一抖,大片的光霞再次飞掠而出。在大厅中一卷,顿时。无数的储物袋,飞了起来。
This place was no place for lingering; his plan was sound. But just as he took two steps on the stairs, an unexpected change occurred.
suí shǒu ná qǐ yí gè , jiāng shén shí chén rù , lǎo zhě de yǎn móu shēn chù , dùn shí shǎn guò yī sī xǐ sè , suǒ liào guǒ rán méi cuò 。 zhè chǔ wù dài zhōng de cái huò , shù liàng fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
随手拿起一个,将神识沉入,老者的眼眸深处,顿时闪过一丝喜色,所料果然没错。这储物袋中的财货,数量非同小可。
A ripple suddenly appeared from nowhere, followed by a green claw like that of a demon bird's, swiftly lunging towards his chest.
tā yě zhǐ shì suí biàn kàn yī kàn ér yǐ 。 rú jīn kě méi yǒu shí jiān màn màn jiǎn shì , bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè , hái yǒu yí gè nán tí , jiù shì zhè me duō chǔ wù dài , zěn me ná chū qù 。
他也只是随便看一看而已。如今可没有时间慢慢检视,不过此时此刻,还有一个难题,就是这么多储物袋,怎么拿出去。
The warehouse had caught them off guard. Even if it were an old Immortal Cultivator, being hit would mean certain death.
yīn wèi kōng jiān fǎ zé , chǔ wù dài shì bù néng zhuāng zài chǔ wù dài lǐ miàn de 。
因为空间法则,储物袋是不能装在储物袋里面的。
But this lean and thin old man reacted quickly. He was surprised but not afraid as he pushed out a palm in response.
sú huà shuō , bǎi mì yī shū , zhè mò lǎo xíng dòng qián , jiāng fāng fāng miàn miàn de kě néng xìng , dōu zǐ xì kǎo lǜ , piān piān què lòu diào le zhè ge wèn tí 。
俗话说,百密一疏,这墨老行动前,将方方面面的可能性,都仔细考虑,偏偏却漏掉了这个问题。
The move was simple, but it gathered all his power. As the light flickered, a thin shield materialized before him.
shuāng méi jǐn suǒ zài yì qǐ 。
双眉紧锁在一起。
It wasn't an actual treasure; it was conjured from his own energy.
bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè , kě méi yǒu duō shǎo shí jiān dān gē ” lüè yī chí yí , tā zhǐ néng jiāng wài yī tuō xià , nòng chéng yí gè dà bāo guǒ , jiāng chǔ wù dài zhuāng rù 。
不过此时此刻,可没有多少时间耽搁”略一迟疑,他只能将外衣脱下,弄成一个大包裹,将储物袋装入。
Suddenly, the claw touched it, producing a sharp crack that echoed in his ears, making his teeth ache. The force of this impact was evident.
zhè ge fāng fǎ kàn shì chǔn bèn yǐ jí , kě chú cǐ zhī wài , tā yǐ bié wú liáng cè , zhǐ néng gòu zhè me zuò 。
这个方法看似蠢笨以极,可除此之外,他已别无良策,只能够这么做。
Due to the warehouse, he seemed to be at a disadvantage. But he remained calm and even took advantage to retreat.
hù xiāng pái chì de kōng jiān fǎ zé , shí zài shì tài tǎo yàn le 。
互相排斥的空间法则,实在是太讨厌了。
His response was like flowing water; there were no hesitations. Clearly, he had extensive experience in combat.
yī jiàn yī fú hái zhuāng bù liǎo nà me duō 。 jiāng jǐ jiàn yī * jié hé , cái kǔn chéng le yí gè dà bāo guǒ , shàng qiān gè chǔ wù dài , yí gè bù luò de bèi tā zhuāng zài lǐ miàn le 。
一件衣服还装不了那么多。将几件衣*结合,才捆成了一个大包裹,上千个储物袋,一个不落的被他装在里面了。
But just as he did so, another sharp light appeared, blocking his path of retreat. From afar, it looked as if someone had foolishly charged right into it.
,“ hū ……
,“呼……
The lean and thin old man fought with strict form, showing great discipline, but the attacker was clearly more skilled, anticipating that the first strike might not be fatal. What should he do next?
mò lǎo sōng le kǒu qì , bèi zhe zhè ge dà bāo guǒ chū qù , shì yǐn rén zhǔ mù le yī xiē , bù guò méi yǒu guān xì 。 liú zài fāng shì zhōng de xiū xiān zhě 。 jìng jiè zuì gāo de yě bù guò yuán yīng jí , yǐ tā men de shí lì , zuì duō néng gòu kàn jiàn jīng hóng yī piē ér yǐ , gēn běn jiù bù kě néng jiāng zì jǐ de shēn fèn nòng qīng chǔ , huàn jù huà shuō , bù yòng dān xīn bào lù 。
墨老松了口气,背着这个大包裹出去,是引人瞩目了一些,不过没有关系。留在坊市中的修仙者。境界最高的也不过元婴级,以他们的实力,最多能够看见惊鸿一瞥而已,根本就不可能将自己的身份弄清楚,换句话说,不用担心暴露。
The old man was shocked; human strength has its limits. He had already used all his abilities to defend against the attack, and dodging the second hit seemed beyond his capacity.
qí shí , ruò bú shì zhè ge fāng shì miàn jī tài dà , lǐ miàn xiū shì shù liàng zhòng duō , tā méi yǒu bǎ wò yí gè bù luò de quán bù miè chú , shuō bù dìng zhēn huì chū shǒu , yī bù zuò , èr bù xiū , jiāng zhè ge fāng shì gěi xuè xǐ diào suàn le 。
其实,若不是这个坊市面积太大,里面修士数量众多,他没有把握一个不落的全部灭除,说不定真会出手,一不做,二不休,将这个坊市给血洗掉算了。
"Aaah!"
xiàn zài zhǐ néng tuì ér qiú qí cì , bù guò tā yǒu bǎ wò , zì jǐ de shēn fèn , shì jué bú huì bào lù de 。
现在只能退而求其次,不过他有把握,自己的身份,是绝不会暴露的。
A mournful cry echoed as pieces of cloth scattered in mid-air, resembling fluttering butterflies.
jiāng bāo guǒ jì hǎo yǐ hòu , tā bèi zài le bèi shàng , suí hòu xiù páo yī fú , yī dà piàn zǐ hóng sè de huǒ yàn fēi lüè ér chū , yòng yì jiǎn dān míng liǎo dào jí chù , jiù shì yào jiāng pāi mài huì shàng suǒ yǒu de yí jì mǒ chú , zhè yàng , jí shǐ yǒu xiū xiān zhě zài lín sǐ qián , nòng le shén me xiǎo dòng zuò , nà yě bú huì zài yǒu rèn hé yòng le 。
将包裹系好以后,他背在了背上,随后袖袍一拂,一大片紫红色的火焰飞掠而出,用意简单明了到极处,就是要将拍卖会上所有的遗迹抹除,这样,即使有修仙者在临死前,弄了什么小动作,那也不会再有任何用了。
That was when his bundle on his back was broken. The crescent-shaped light blade then sliced through his protective aura.
duì yú zì jǐ de mó huǒ , lǎo guài wù xìn xīn shí zú , jì chū yǐ hòu , kàn yě bù kàn jié guǒ 。 jiù huà zuò yī dào jīng hóng , xiàng shēn hòu de shí jiē fēi lüè ér qù 。
对于自己的魔火,老怪物信心十足,祭出以后,看也不看结果。就化作一道惊虹,像身后的石阶飞掠而去。
Even without any treasures, a cultivator's final defense at the yuan婴 (core) stage was formidable. But now it was like paper; the blade cut through with no delay.
shì fēi zhī dì 。 bù yí jiǔ liú , tā de dǎ suàn , àn lǐ shuō , shì fēi cháng zhèng què de , rán ér zài gāng gāng tà shàng shí jiē liǎng bù de shí hòu , yì biàn fā shēng le 。
是非之地。不宜久留,他的打算,按理说,是非常正确的,然而在刚刚踏上石阶两步的时候,异变发生了。
The speed was incredible. He didn’t feel pain as he was split in half from the chest.
yuán běn kōng wú yī wù de mǒu chù , tū rán bō wén lián shǎn , suí hòu yī rú tóng yāo qín lì zhuǎ bān de qīng sè zhǎo yǐng fú xiàn ér chū , shì ruò jīng hóng , shǎn diàn bān de xiàng zhe tā de xiōng kǒu zhuā guò qù le 。
原本空无一物的某处,突然波纹连闪,随后一如同妖禽利爪般的青色爪影浮现而出,势若惊虹,闪电般的向着他的胸口抓过去了。
A flash of light revealed his yuan婴 (core) floating in mid-air, showing disbelief. It wasn't surprising; a moment ago, he had been in heaven and now in hell.
biàn qǐ cāng chǔ , rú guǒ bèi jī zhòng , jiù suàn shì dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù , yě miǎn bù liǎo kāi táng pò dù zhī huò 。
变起仓储,如果被击中,就算是洞玄期老怪物,也免不了开膛破肚之祸。
In that moment of shock, he missed his best chance to escape. A green glow appeared, and Lin Xuan's figure materialized beside him with no expression on his face.
bì jìng nà zhǎo yǐng de shēng shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě , qū qū hù tǐ líng guāng , kěn dìng shì dǐng bú zhù 。
毕竟那爪影的声势非同小可,区区护体灵光,肯定是顶不住。
He opened his mouth, and a stream of four-colored flames erupted from it.
rán ér zhè gān shòu lǎo zhě , hái zhēn shì yī fǎn yìng xùn sù de rén wù , miàn duì zhè me yì wài de tōu xí , yà yì guī yà yì , dàn jū rán méi yǒu sī háo de wèi jù 。
然而这干瘦老者,还真是一反应迅速的人物,面对这么意外的偷袭,讶异归讶异,但居然没有丝毫的畏惧。
It was a thin flame about the size of a thumb, but incredibly swift. "Pfft," the sound echoed as it engulfed the old man’s yuan婴 (core).
yú cāng cù zhī jiān , yòu shǒu tái qǐ , píng píng yī zhǎng xiàng qián tuī le guò qù 。
于仓促之间,右手抬起,平平一掌向前推了过去。
"No…" came a weak cry that quickly faded into nothingness, cut off in mid-sentence.
zhāo shì jiǎn dān yǐ jí , dàn què shì tā hún shēn fǎ lì suǒ jù 。 zhǐ jiàn líng guāng shǎn dòng jiān , yí miàn báo báo de dùn pái fú xiàn chū lái 。
招式简单以极,但却是他浑身法力所聚。只见灵光闪动间,一面薄薄的盾牌浮现出来。
Lin Xuan flicked his fingers and released several fireballs to reduce the old man's body to ashes.
rán ér zhè bìng fēi zhēn zhèng de bǎo wù , ér shì tā fǎ lì biàn huàn ér chéng de 。
然而这并非真正的宝物,而是他法力变幻而成的。
After completing everything, Lin Xuan sighed with relief. Dealing with an old Immortal Cultivator was no easy task; it required precise execution. !~!
Despite his reluctance, he could only watch helplessly as the opponent had no means to retaliate.
A mournful cry reached his ears. This must be one of the most unjustly fallen Immortal Cultivators in millions of years.
The path of cultivation was arduous; she didn't know how many hardships she had endured before reaching this point, especially considering her situation by the East Sea. She could easily be called a daughter of heaven. With her talent, her cultivation might have progressed further. But facing such bad luck, what could she do but cry in vain?
This fully proved that when someone was unlucky, even drinking cold water could cause them to choke.
However, viewed from another angle, encountering such setbacks was due to bad luck, but at the end of the day, it still came down to her own insufficient strength. If Lady Aroma had been able to resist the Poison of Immortal Drunkenness, things might have turned out differently.
The lean and thin old man was no stranger to ruthless actions; once he made his move, there would be no hesitation. Although he did not draw out her soul or refine her essence, he still spat out infant fire, reducing her yuan婴 (core) to ashes.
Not only had the opponent lost any chance of reincarnation, but they also couldn't seek revenge in the future.
Of course, he wouldn’t let go of their storage bags either. This was truly a stroke of luck; not only did he get his revenge, but he also made a fortune.
The cultivators in the hall who had come to participate in this auction were all bound by their powers. Despite that, their eyes widened with shock as curses echoed around them.
But words couldn’t help. The lean and thin old man exuded killing intent from every pore. With a sharp command: "Quickly!"
Instantly, the leaf-shaped flying knives like a storm of rain swept towards the immobile cultivators, spraying blood everywhere. Those cultivators who could not even muster one-tenth of their power were silenced as they met their end.
Not only did their physical bodies perish, but their yuan婴 (core) was also destroyed by those flying knives.
"Haha."
The lean and thin old man’s face showed satisfaction. He wasn’t out to kill indiscriminately; he just didn't want his identity exposed. A petty mind is not a gentleman; without poison, one cannot be a hero. Now that all the cultivators participating in the auction had perished, who would know it was him?
It was flawless!
He flicked his left hand, and a large amount of light rays flew out, swirling around the hall. Instantly, countless storage bags floated up.
Picking one at random, he delved into its contents with his divine sense. A look of joy flashed in his eyes; as expected, the quantity was substantial.
He only glanced through it briefly since there wasn’t enough time to inspect thoroughly. However, another problem arose: how could he carry all these storage bags?
The spatial rules prevented one storage bag from being placed inside another.
A saying goes, "Even a hundred precautions can be missed." The old man had considered every possibility before acting but overlooked this issue.
His brows furrowed in concentration.
But time was of the essence. After a moment’s hesitation, he took off his outer robe and turned it into a large bundle to stuff all the storage bags inside.
This method seemed incredibly crude, but there was no other way; he had to do it.
The repelling spatial rules were truly annoying.
A single garment couldn’t hold them all, so he combined several pieces of clothing to form a large bundle. All the storage bags were packed without any left behind.
"Phew."
The old man exhaled in relief as he carried this large bundle out. It was certainly noticeable, but it didn't matter. The highest cultivators within the market were only at the yuan婴 (core) stage; their strength would only allow them to catch a glimpse before dying. There was no way they could discern his identity.
If not for the vast size of the market and the numerous cultivators inside, he might have attempted to clear out everyone completely. But now, he had to settle for this.
He tied the bundle securely and slung it over his back. Then, with a flick of his sleeve, a large purple-red flame flew out. His intention was straightforward: to erase all traces of the auction. Even if some cultivators tried something last-minute, their efforts would be futile now.
With full confidence in his demonic flames, he cast them without hesitation and turned into a streak of light, flying down the stone steps behind him.
This place was no place for lingering; his plan was sound. But just as he took two steps on the stairs, an unexpected change occurred.
A ripple suddenly appeared from nowhere, followed by a green claw like that of a demon bird's, swiftly lunging towards his chest.
The warehouse had caught them off guard. Even if it were an old Immortal Cultivator, being hit would mean certain death.
But this lean and thin old man reacted quickly. He was surprised but not afraid as he pushed out a palm in response.
The move was simple, but it gathered all his power. As the light flickered, a thin shield materialized before him.
It wasn't an actual treasure; it was conjured from his own energy.
Suddenly, the claw touched it, producing a sharp crack that echoed in his ears, making his teeth ache. The force of this impact was evident.
Due to the warehouse, he seemed to be at a disadvantage. But he remained calm and even took advantage to retreat.
His response was like flowing water; there were no hesitations. Clearly, he had extensive experience in combat.
But just as he did so, another sharp light appeared, blocking his path of retreat. From afar, it looked as if someone had foolishly charged right into it.
The lean and thin old man fought with strict form, showing great discipline, but the attacker was clearly more skilled, anticipating that the first strike might not be fatal. What should he do next?
The old man was shocked; human strength has its limits. He had already used all his abilities to defend against the attack, and dodging the second hit seemed beyond his capacity.
"Aaah!"
A mournful cry echoed as pieces of cloth scattered in mid-air, resembling fluttering butterflies.
That was when his bundle on his back was broken. The crescent-shaped light blade then sliced through his protective aura.
Even without any treasures, a cultivator's final defense at the yuan婴 (core) stage was formidable. But now it was like paper; the blade cut through with no delay.
The speed was incredible. He didn’t feel pain as he was split in half from the chest.
A flash of light revealed his yuan婴 (core) floating in mid-air, showing disbelief. It wasn't surprising; a moment ago, he had been in heaven and now in hell.
In that moment of shock, he missed his best chance to escape. A green glow appeared, and Lin Xuan's figure materialized beside him with no expression on his face.
He opened his mouth, and a stream of four-colored flames erupted from it.
It was a thin flame about the size of a thumb, but incredibly swift. "Pfft," the sound echoed as it engulfed the old man’s yuan婴 (core).
"No…" came a weak cry that quickly faded into nothingness, cut off in mid-sentence.
Lin Xuan flicked his fingers and released several fireballs to reduce the old man's body to ashes.
After completing everything, Lin Xuan sighed with relief. Dealing with an old Immortal Cultivator was no easy task; it required precise execution. !~!
