“It’s you!”
The moment that Fu Changsheng saw Qian Xuandao, the first reaction a dignified Lightning Calamity Realm cultivator would have was to turn around and flee.
“Hehe, where else can you escape to?”
Qian Xuandao let out a light laugh, and was about to catch up, as if he did not care about the danger of him entering a sect’s training hall at all.
“Hmph, how dare you!”
Whether it was the fact that Fu Changsheng had fled without a fight or the fact that Qian Xuandao did not place the Holy Birch Gate in his eyes at all, all of these caused the Holy Birch Gate Sect Master to be greatly displeased.
Countless of birch leaves floated down from the branches, and then formed a leaf wall in the middle of the forest, blocking Qian Xuandao’s way forward.
Although the leaf wall was destroyed easily in front of Qian Xuandao, but behind the leaf wall, another leaf wall was constructed successfully. If this continued, the leaf wall would not only be able to stop Qian Xuandao from chasing Fu Changsheng, but it would also be able to cause him to fall back into the array.
“Junior apprentice-brother Fu, don’t try to escape. This person is temporarily trapped by senior brother. Come quickly. If we work together, we can chase him away. Junior brother Fu?”
Master Bai Hua wiped the perspiration off his face. He was somewhat dissatisfied with Fu Changsheng in his heart, even if an enemy of the Huang Ting Realm came knocking on his door, how could he be so scared to such an extent that he didn’t even have the courage to fight?
Furthermore, he was a grandmaster of talismans, and he had a few extremely high quality talismans on his body. Once the talismans were used together with his own abilities, he would be considered a top tier expert even amongst the cultivators of the Lightning Calamity.
With this kind of fighting strength, adding the Master Bai Hua himself, and the benefits of being in the Dao Court, let alone fighting a Huang Ting Realm cultivator, it would even be enough to suppress a Huang Ting Dao cultivator. Why would Fu Changsheng look like a mouse seeing a cat?
Of course, the Master Bai Hua was not dissatisfied with Fu Changsheng at all, with just a glance, Huang Ting could tell that he was rushing towards Fu Changsheng. However, when Fu Changsheng accepted his invitation to join the Holy Birch Gate, he had never told him that there was such an enemy.
It was so much so that when Master Bai Hua looked back, it didn’t seem like he was inviting Fu Changsheng to join them, but more like Fu Changsheng borrowing the Holy Birch Gate’s power to take refuge.
However, in the end, this place was still part of the Holy Birch Gate, so no matter what, the Master Bai Hua would not allow Qian Xuandao to do as he pleased.
Perhaps it was because of the effects of Master Bai Hua’s words, or perhaps it was because Fu Changsheng had escaped without fighting, which made him feel ashamed. But just as Master Bai Hua finished speaking, he saw Fu Changsheng brandishing a handful of talismans, releasing the sealing ability in an instant. Several rays of light shot out from different directions towards Qian Xuandao, who looked like he was still trapped in a maze of leaves.
Unexpectedly, Qian Xuandao suddenly let out a long laugh, and said: “You evil disciple, not only do you want to bully me, do you want to exterminate my ancestors?”
However, Qian Xuandao did not do anything, but raised a foot long talisman above his head, the originally exploding talismans suddenly changed direction in the blink of an eye, and rushed towards the Mysterious yellow talisman above his head.
“Evil disciple, did you forget who taught you the ability?”
Qian Xuandao sneered, but ignored the several leaf walls around him, and only cared about walking along the way, looking in the direction that seemed to be certain of Fu Changsheng’s position.
“I knew that when you accepted me as your disciple, you did not have any good intentions. Unfortunately, by the time I realized it, it was already too late, and it was in vain that I respected you as a god. However, I never thought that I was just a cauldron in your eyes!”
From within the white birch forest, Fu Changsheng’s flustered voice drifted about, as if it came from different directions within the forest.
However, Qian Xuandao did not seem to be affected in the slightest. He only focused on chasing in a fixed direction, as if he was unaffected by the surrounding runes, as if he was certain that Fu Changsheng would not be able to escape the palm of his hand.
However, right at this moment, Qian Xuandao’s body suddenly stopped, and his expression congealed. His wide sleeves suddenly flung out, and a sharp light suddenly slashed out from his front.
The originally empty forest suddenly exploded into a destructive ball of green and white light, and then, the scattered light blades cleared out a large empty space in the surrounding birch forest, and at the other end of the empty land, the figure of Master Bai Hua appeared out of nowhere.
Qian Xuandao’s expression darkened, he frowned and said: “Holy Birch Gate Sect Leader, Master Bai Hua, this time I am only targeting Fu Changsheng, and do not wish to make an enemy out of your sect, once I capture him, I will immediately withdraw from your sect’s training hall. If you do not wish to see your sect get destroyed in a war, please capture that evil disciple and let me handle it.”
Master Bai Hua was furious when he heard that, and said, “Are you threatening this old man? This is my Holy Birch Gate Dao Court, our sect has been established fohousand years in the White Star Palace, why would we be afraid of you, a Huang Ting! ”
With that, the Master Bai Hua pressed his hands against the ground, and all the branches and leaves that had fallen to the ground immediately started to gather, as if attracted by something. A few of the white birch spirit trees broke into pieces, and at the same time, some talismans that flickered with spiritual light merged into one, forming a puppet completely made of spirit wood, branches and leaves that pounced towards Qian Xuandao.
But unexpectedly, at this moment, the few Glyphs that had merged into the puppet beast’s body were suddenly pulled out by an invisible force, and then all of them returned into the array, while the puppet beast that had lost its spirit seemed to have its spirit sucked out in an instant. Although it was still charging towards Qian Xuandao, it no longer had the devouring aura from before.
“Hiss, I didn’t think that you would be so proficient in Accomplishment of Array Path, I have underestimated you!”
Seeing this, Master Bai Hua sucked in a breath of cold air, he should have expected that the other party was able to infiltrate his sect’s Dao Court without triggering the Guardian Rune Formation, this kind of Accomplishment of Array Path was at least a Grandmaster array master?
Master Bai Hua obviously did not sense that the impact of the rune formation had come from outside the arena. He thought that Qian Xuandao had broken through his divine ability in an instant, but the fear in his expression grew even more, and Qian Xuandao was naturally noncommittal towards Master Bai Hua’s misunderstanding.
Qian Xuandao faced the puppet beast that pounced towards him, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of white steam, bringing with iipping sound, the white gas directly slashed a clear cut on the puppet beast’s body, and with a raise of his leg, Qian Xuandao passed through the open hole.
It was only at this moment that the Master Bai Hua suddenly realized that after Fu Changsheng had spread out the few talismans, he had not attacked again since.
A few talismans floated down from the branches of the white birch spirit tree to the side and formed a ring in front of him. The space in the middle suddenly fluctuated like a mirror, and Fu Changsheng and the location where he was at right now appeared on top of the spatial mirror.
But when Master Bai Hua saw the current situation of Fu Changsheng, he was shocked. The grand grandmaster of the rune way, Thunder Tribulation, was actually lying on the ground right now, curled up into a ball. As if enduring an extreme pain, he was currently trembling, and also as if he was afraid.
Master Bai Hua suddenly raised his hand, but for some reason did not release any sort of sacred art. Instead, he slowly lowered his arm, and as if this matter did not concern him, he stood there and watched from the sidelines, allowing Qian Xuandao to rampage within the training hall of Holy Birch Gate. He even gave orders to the other cultivators that had rushed over from the Holy Birch Gate, telling them not to act rashly and watch the situation unfold.
And currently, the great protective formation of the Holy Birch Gate’s Dao Palace did not have any effect at all. Qian Xuandao was walking in the direction of the place where Fu Changsheng was currently at.
At the moment, Master Bai Hua’s expression was extremely calm, as if he wasn’t worried in the slightest due to Qian Xuandao’s intrusion.
At this moment, Qian Xuandao finally walked up to Fu Changsheng.
But right at this moment, Qian Xuandao’s footsteps, which were originally in front of him, suddenly stopped, and the trembling Fu Changsheng, who was originally curled up on the ground, suddenly erupted at this moment. Three purple-gold talismans ignited without wind, transforming into three golden swords that pierced towards Qian Xuandao from three different directions.
As if he had already planned for Fu Changsheng’s move, Qian Xuandao stretched out his hand and pushed it across the air. Fu Changsheng instantly flipped over half a circle in the air, and his entire body fell onto the ground ruthlessly as if someone had grabbed his ankle. The three golden swords that were flying over immediately dispersed into a golden fog that slowly dissipated in the air.
Qian Xuandao raised his head and looked in the direction of the Master Bai Hua, as if he had sensed what the Holy Birch Gate Sect Master was thinking at the moment. When he lowered his head, he met the gaze of Fu Changsheng, whose body was lying on the ground powerlessly but was filled with poison.
“I never thought that you would be able to find this place. It seems like you are deliberately plotting. I’m afraid that you have already left a backhand when you handed me the Destiny Talisman and planned to take my life, right?”
As if he had realized his future fate, the originally terrified Fu Changsheng calmed down at this moment.
A trace of ridicule emerged on Qian Xuandao’s face, but there was not a single trace of complacency in his eyes, only coldness and indifference.
“You are indeed worthy of being the genius in the Dao of Talismans that this old man had placed in your dantian back then. You even sensed the talisman seed that this old man had meticulously planted in your dantian. Unfortunately, your talent is still not high enough and you did not find a way to remove the talisman technique.”
A hint of loneliness and unwillingness appeared on Fu Changsheng’s face when he heard this. “Three years of time. I only need three years to undo the Destiny Talisman that you planted. Whaity, what a pity that all of this is fate!”
Qian Xuandao sneered and said: “That’s right, this is all fate. You are destined to become the stepping stone of this old man’s immortal path!”
With that, Qian Xuandao’s hands suddenly changed hand seals like a butterfly, at the same time, he started chanting softly, suddenly pointing at Fu Changsheng who was on the ground, and said: “Refining Qi, Body Dissolving Immortal Talisman, gather!”
