The Journey of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 398 - 236: Injured

Ning Xiaoxian didn’t realize it, but fortunately, she practiced the Demon Cultivation technique of the Ba Snake. The Ancient Divine Beasts refined their incredibly powerful bodies using this technique; even though she hadn’t reached the Small Success Realm, the toughness of her muscles and bones was already remarkable.

Thankfully, she was wearing the Black Scale Armor, which absorbed the majority of the force transmitted from the weights.

Otherwise, with her recent advancement to the Great Success Stage of cultivation, she would have been crushed to dust by the full-force attack from a Nascent Soul Late Stage Perfection Cultivator.

In any case, she had blocked this lethal pursuit. She lay prostrate on Qi Zai’s back, her internal organs ached terribly with every breath she took, but seeing the rage on Old K’s face brought her so much joy that she truly wanted to laugh.

Unconsciously, she had made such tremendous progress.

Hehe, Granny can actually block a killer move from a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator now.

However, Old K couldn’t be happy. He recalled the weights to see numerous scars on his Magic Artifact, including a cut almost severing it. Ning Xiaoxian’s Dagger was too overpowering, nearly cleaving his precious treasure in half. Fixing this Magic Artifact would require a massive amount of materials, not to mention that restoring it to its original state would take a whole year.

And the woman lying on the back of the White Bird even waved at him in a goodbye gesture, nearly causing him to spit out a mouthful of old blood in anger.

After swallowing an elixir, the medicinal power turned into a warm stream that flowed through her body, and she felt a little bit better.

Changtian said something in her ear, and this time she could vaguely hear it: "There are people ahead!"

People ahead?

She forced herself to turn and look up, and indeed a Jade Boat flew towards them from the front, standing on it were shadows of people. It turned out that the direction in which Qi Zai was fleeing was precisely where the Treasure had appeared.

This damn creature! She felt too weak to even curse.

Qi Zai, without waiting for her command, had already twisted its head and dived downwards. With this plunge, Ning Xiaoxian instantly felt her organs churn, blood rushing to her head, her throat sweetening again. Damn it, she was already seriously injured, and if she was caught between attacks from both sides, there was only one path left – death.

As expected, Old K’s voice came from afar: "Fellow Daoists ahead, please help stop that little thief, Tianlan Courtyard will be greatly appreciative!" The aged ginger is the spiciest, with this one sentence, he not only declared her crimes but also revealed his identity.

People on the Jade Boat, don’t be so righteous! The world is cold, and you can turn a blind eye once without the immortals blaming you. She prayed silently.

But her luck seemed to have run out. Heaven was not looking out for her, for a Thunder Sword was indeed launched from the Jade Boat, pursuing Qi Zai. The sword glowed with purple light, chillingly bright. Just its appearance alone was many times better than the weights from Old K Face’s hands, not to mention the electric snakes of the Thunder Prison wrapped around it – its arrival was truly imposing. She felt like she could hear the crackling of thunder and lightning, and it was frightening to think that if the treasure sword struck her, her skin and flesh would crackle just as disturbingly.

The treasure sword itself must also be a top-notch Magic Artifact, its speed almost as swift as the weights, initiating later but arriving sooner, quickly closing in on Qi Zai.

Why did these people have so many good Magic Artifacts? She felt too weak to voice a Powerful Complaint, she could only force herself to stand up from the back of the Self-Respecting Bird, feeling dizzy and only managing by biting her tongue, she clutched the Tusk tightly and once again faced the purple treasure sword.

"Don’t be afraid, your life is not in danger!" Changtian suddenly said urgently in her ear.

She was slightly startled; with such a great enemy at hand, why would Changtian suddenly say this? But the opponent’s Magic Artifact was already so close, she had no time to ponder, forcibly gathered all her Divine Power into the Tusk, and reached out to block.

After blocking, she immediately turned her head and let go of her hand. Even so, the lightning covering the sword still genuinely bombarded her body, and the Black Scale Armor lived up to her expectations by absorbing at least ninety percent of it, but the numbing effect brought by the lightning could not be exempted.

What does it feel like to be struck by lightning? She finally understood; it was really painful! Not only was she scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, but her muscles instantly became stiff, and her Divine Power was sluggish.

Later, the remaining ten percent of the power on the treasure sword also erupted, rampaging violently within her body.

Fortunately, the owner of the treasure sword seemed to be merciful, only issuing this one attack; otherwise, if it were like Old K Face who acted, she wondered if she would still have a life to live.
