Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 85: Unexpected Disaster

Chen Lin didn't dare to move, but he was secretly impressed.

This female cultivator's acting skills were too amazing; she deserved a small golden statuette.

After being scolded by the female cultivator, Luo Ziqing's face suddenly turned pale, and he pointed to the sky, shouting, "If I, Luo Ziqing, have any impure thoughts towards Lan Die'er, may I be struck by five thunderbolts!"

After making the oath, he patted his chest and guaranteed, "Don't worry, Die'er. I'll definitely get what you want. I've already found the location of the demonic beast that will allow me to use the Fusion of Demons technique. It's a dragon, and once I obtain its inner dan, I'll build the demonic foundation. Then, my master will give me the treasure, and we can be together!"

As he said this, he became slightly anxious, "Die'er, once I build the demonic foundation, my body will undergo a transformation. You won't reject me, will you?"

The female cultivator's face lit up with a radiant smile as she walked towards Luo Ziqing, whispering, "How could I reject you? You're doing all this for me, and later, I'll also cultivate the Fusion of Demons technique. When that time comes, we'll both be demonic cultivators, and no one will reject anyone!"

"Ah!"

Luo Ziqing nodded vigorously, his entire body trembling with excitement.

"Alright, my identity still can't be exposed. You be careful, and I'll leave now. But before I go, there's a small bug that needs to be cleaned up around here!"

The female cultivator's voice suddenly turned cold, and a small, flashing sword appeared in her hand, pointing towards Chen Lin's hiding spot.

However, just as she was about to strike, a strange, ancient-looking monkey suddenly appeared, dashing towards her at a speed of 100 meters per second, carrying something on its back.

At the same time, her flying sword was about to strike, but it hit the monkey instead.

Just as the two were about to collide, the monkey's hand suddenly moved back, and a blinding flash of light erupted.

At the same time, a red thread shot out from behind the monkey in the opposite direction.

Then, a deafening explosion shook the air!

…

Chen Lin saw that the female cultivator had discovered him, and without hesitation, he released the puppet bomb, specifically the Thunderbolt Four.

He knew that any hesitation would mean his death today.

After all, he had already caused such a huge disturbance, and even if he apologized, the other party wouldn't let him go.

At such a close distance, and with the opponent already on high alert, the monkey puppet would be discovered as soon as it was released, so he had to activate it first and then let it charge out.

No matter what, it was faster than him throwing it himself.

Then, he immediately activated the Blood Escape Talisman and escaped!

As soon as the Blood Escape Talisman was activated, the blood in his body seemed to ignite instantly, and his body entered a strange state, shooting out uncontrollably.

The speed was unimaginable.

Luckily, he had determined the direction before activating it; otherwise, he wouldn't have had time to change direction.

In less than a breath, his body had already appeared a mile away, and only then did he hear the explosion.

The distance was already far enough, and the explosion's power didn't affect him, but Chen Lin's current state wasn't good either.

His entire body was extremely weak, with blood trickling from the corners of his mouth and nose.

This was the price of using the Blood Escape Talisman, and he had mentally prepared for it.

He threw a healing pill into his mouth, quickly refined it, and then slapped a Rapid Movement Talisman on himself to prepare for escape.

Currently, his location was not too far from the Ma Family Manor and Guyuan City. The explosion would definitely attract cultivators, and since he had bombed Luo Ziqing, a member of the Ma Family, they would definitely launch a massive manhunt, and he couldn't stay here.

Just as the talisman was activated, Chen Lin saw a black shadow streak across the sky, shooting towards his location.

It seemed to be Luo Ziqing!

He was shocked and didn't expect that the person wouldn't die from the explosion and would still pursue him.

In desperation, he slapped his storage bag, and a gray line shot out, transforming into a flying sword that slashed towards the black shadow.

Chen Lin thought that even if the opponent wasn't killed by the explosion, they must have been severely injured, and now that he was exhausted, escape was impossible, so he could only fight to the death.

But what surprised him was that the opponent didn't dodge his attack at all, and instead, was directly struck by the flying sword transformed from the snake-shaped puppet.

Split in two!

Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, unsure of the situation.

But the person was indeed split in two, and it was impossible for them to still be alive, so he went forward to investigate.

When he got closer, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth a few times.

It wasn't that the person was chasing him, but rather, they were blown over by the explosion's shockwave, and only a part of their body had been blown over.

There was no head or legs, only a waist section, with blood and flesh scattered everywhere.

The reason he had misunderstood earlier was not only due to his fear, but also because the opponent was wearing a high-level Daoist robe, which hadn't been completely burned or destroyed in the explosion, and was still wrapped around the waist section.

"Ah!"

Chen Lin let out a sigh of relief and recalled the snake-shaped puppet.

This is really a case of seeing enemies everywhere.

He laughed at himself.

But there was no other way; with his low cultivation, he could only do this. If he were a Qi Refining late-stage cultivator, he wouldn't have to be so miserable.

A Qi Refining mid-stage cultivator facing two Qi Refining late-stage cultivators, including a Qi Refining 9th Stage one, was indeed a desperate situation.

However, this time, he was also quite unlucky. He had only gone to hide in the mountains to avoid trouble, but ended up encountering this mess.

Although he had narrowly escaped, Qingyun Sect's Luo Ziqing had been blown up by him, and he didn't know what kind of trouble would come his way. He might have to start running again.

He also didn't know if the exposed female cultivator had been blown up or not. If she wasn't dead, the trouble would be even greater.

With a gloomy heart, Chen Lin used another Rapid Movement Talisman on himself, then glanced at Luo Ziqing's remains.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he quickly walked over to the remains, taking a storage bag from the relatively intact Daoist robe.

This was an unexpected surprise! After running so far, he could still pick up some spoils of war, and the corpse had even delivered itself to him.

A Qingyun Sect 9th Stage disciple's storage bag would definitely contain many good things, but Chen Lin didn't immediately check it. Instead, he quickly disappeared from the scene.

On the other side, near the Spirit Ferry River, a golden light streaked across the night sky, and a disheveled, blood-stained woman fell to the riverbank, her hair disheveled and her clothes tattered.

It was the female cultivator.

At the critical moment when the Thunderbolt Four exploded, she felt the terrifying aura and promptly activated her Golden Escape talisman, barely escaping with her life.

If she had hesitated for just a moment, she would have been torn to shreds.

And to make matters worse, she had to sacrifice one of her defensive treasures!

"What the hell is this thing? How can its power be so immense? It's clearly just a Qi Refining mid-stage cultivator!"

Lan Die'er, no longer playful and carefree like when she was teasing Luo Ziqing, crawled up from the ground, cursed loudly.
