Chapter 614: Walking Through Fire

rived yet. Could it be that he isn't interested in this auction” Tian Jing looked around for a while but didn't see Lu Xiaoteng's figure, and couldn't help but say curiously."That boy is quite mysteri...Another white-hat dwarf rushed towards Xiang Lian'er, but was stopped by Yuan Gang. Just from the fluctuations of their magical power during the exchange, several people suddenly reached the late stage of Jindan. Especially Yuan Gang, he swept away his previous lowliness, and at this time, he stretched out his hands like an ape's arms, like a giant ape, simultaneously fighting two powerful cultivators in the late stage of Jindan.

Lu Xiaitian was also a little startled. To single-handedly face two late-stage Jindan cultivators, this Yuan Gang was truly capable and arrogant.

Xu Wan also didn't worry about Yuan Gang at all, focusing on protecting Xu Wan by her side, and just flew forward rapidly.

Fortunately, these people's main target was still that child, Lian'er. Lu Xiaoteng didn't know what secrets were hidden on Lian'er's body, and he didn't want to know at this time. In short, leave this place of right and wrong first.

Lu Xia Tian rode his sword away in another direction. However, the woman with the guzheng, Hu Qin, also considered it several times in a short period. Seeing Xu Wan and Yuan Gang so fiercely protecting Xiang Lian Er, at a glance, they naturally knew that Xiang Lian Er was the weakest cultivator among them, but also the most important figure. If she attacked Xiang Lian Er at this time, she would inevitably be met with the full force of Xu Wan and Yuan Gang's counterattack. The Snow Ridge Twin Dragons had deep magical powers and could withstand it for a while, but she was only in the middle stage of Jindan, and might not be able to hold on. Yuan Gang single-handedly fought against the Snow Ridge Twin Dragons without falling behind. On the other hand, Xu Wan protected Xiang Lian Er, and her strength was probably not much different from Yuan Gang's. Compared to them, that silver-haired boy was easier to deal with. After all, before coming here, she had already received news that this time the main target was...

Moreover, Fu Mingyuan wore a resolute expression. At this time, they still hadn't assembled their full team, so even if she tried to downplay things, Fu Mingyuan couldn't say much to her.

Besides, the sudden incident at Yueyin Mountain Villa wasn't their fault. Compared to that, intercepting Lu Xia Tian carried significantly less risk. As for the benefits, with Xue Ling Shuang Diao and another late-stage Jindan cultivator present, she, a mid-stage Jindan cultivator, didn't expect to get the lion's share anyway.

After weighing the pros and cons, Hu Qin's figure flashed and she stood in front of Lu Xiaoteng. However, Lu Xiaoteng trembled, his entire body splitting into two. Two identical figures escaped simultaneously in two different directions.

“Trying to escape with such a cheap trick, you’re dreaming!” Hu Qin’er was startled at first, then flipped her palm. The ancient zither on her back turned into a phantom and appeared before her chest. Hu Qin’er’s pale fingers gently plucked the strings, and amidst the crisp sound, several razor-sharp qi blades flew towards Lu Xiaottian’s main body and shadow clones simultaneously.

At this time, Lu Xia Tian had already reached the middle stage of the Golden Core realm. His shadow clones also possessed a certain degree of attack and defense power. However, the few qi blades Hu Qin'er emitted were extraordinary, incredibly sharp. After the shadow clone and two qi blades stalemate for a while, its figure began to fade. In a fight between masters, even a slight change could alert the opponent to something unusual. Let alone the obvious change in the shadow clone.

Hu Qin'er broke through Lu Xiaoteng's shadow clone in the blink of an eye. At the same time, the guzheng floated before her, and Hu Qin'er's fingers danced rapidly across the strings. With the plucking of the guzheng, a pleasant melody flowed into Lu Xiaoteng's ears, making him feel a little entranced. This enchanting music made him feel like he was in a fairyland.

Hu Qin'er smirked, her eyes twinkling with amusement. This silver-haired youth wasn't much to her, just a little trickster who would be helpless against her killing move. "Come and die," she declared, a murderous glint flashing in her phoenix-eyes. Her fingers danced across the guqin once more, unleashing several razor-sharp blades of qi that arced through the air like beautiful rainbows, converging on Lu Xiaofeng from multiple angles.

Just as Hujian was about to succeed, Lu Xiaoteng's slightly dazed eyes suddenly became clear.

With a clang, the Cleaving Earth Saber drew from its scabbard at his hip. Just as Fu Mingyuan was about to arrive from within the estate, Lu Xia Tian had no hesitation. He had already used the Giant Jiao Spirit God not long ago and it was still well-preserved, even in the midst of a fierce battle. He could use it for some time longer. He swallowed down another ninth rank Earth Fire Dual System Giant Jiao Spirit God. The Cleaving Earth Saber flew out of his hand directly. It carried with it the terrifying physical strength Lu Xia Tian possessed when using the Soul Devouring Technique, combined with his own magical cultivation. This combination of power wasn't pure, but it was undeniably ferocious.

The earth-splitting sword unleashed a deafening shriek, instantly shattering the oncoming blades of air. Then, moving at a speed impossible to track with the naked eye, it shot towards Hu Qin like a bolt of lightning.

As the slitting blade slashed, golden light erupted, enveloping an area of several dozen meters. The power of this single strike was so immense that even Yuan Gang, Xue Ling Shuang Jiao, and several other cultivators in the late Golden Core stage couldn't help but glance sideways.

Even Xiang Lian'er’s eyes welled up with a trace of endless fear. If it wasn't for Xu Wan protecting Xiang Lian'er at this moment, shielding her from this overwhelming aura, Xiang Lian'er would have almost lost her balance.

Originally, Lu Xia Tian's aura of mana was suppressed to an extremely low level. Even with Hu Qin, she could only vaguely sense that Lu Xia Tian was still in the early stage of the Golden Core realm. Even if he was strong, at most, he was only in the middle stage of the Golden Core. She had killed many cultivators in the middle stage of the Golden Core before. She just didn't expect this time to kick an iron plate.

If she had known this beforehand, she shouldn't have fought so desperately. Hu Qin was deeply remorseful in her heart, knowing that Lu Xia Tian was now trapped between a rock and a hard place. Blocked by her, he would inevitably counterattack with all his might to break through her defenses. To avoid being caught off guard from behind, he would surely fight back fiercely. It was too late to say anything now. The silver-haired youth had already made his move, and she had no choice but to respond or face even more dire consequences.

Feeling the threat of this domineering sword strike, Hu Qiner let out a sharp whistle from her mouth and once again plucked at the guzheng. The eighteen strings on the guzheng, like dancing silver threads, shot into the air, meeting the earth-splitting blade head-on.

Ding dong...

A series of crisp, yet piercing, dense impacts sounded. They were even more frequent than a torrential downpour. Witnessing the relentlessly powerful golden saber charging forward, Hu Qing'er's originally fair and delicate complexion flushed red. Her fingers darted across the remaining nine strings, rapidly plucking them as a torrent of air blades surged forward to meet Lie Di Dao once again.

“Roar!” A silver-grey spirit beast with crimson eyes flashed in the white light. It was Di Kun, who had recently broken through to the eighth rank. At this time, Di Kun exuded an incomparably arrogant aura. With a flap of his wings, he seemed to have come from outside the heavens. His silver-grey streamlined body, tiger head and leopard body, three tails danced in the air, and wherever his four paws stepped, a blue flame appeared.

At this moment, the flying thread facing the blade of the chasm seemed to be stuck in mud, crawling like a snail. Even the numerous blades it had unleashed had dissipated considerably.

“Roar!” Di Kun roared again, raising his head to the heavens. It was as if he were releasing a pent-up rage, an eruption that had been suppressed for far too long. The surging, ice-blue flames surged towards Hu Qin like a tidal wave.

The Di Kun spread its limbs slightly, its wings flapping wildly. It was fierce, domineering, and arrogantly strode through the air, treading on flames. It flew over Lu Xiaitian and charged straight at Hu Qin.ace was amiss.“Back when your teacher left this realm, his cultivation was still inferior to yours. He left a wisp of his soul and set up the restrictions of this hall to protect it. If a successor we...
