To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck-Chapter 432: 223: Slaying the Inborn Formation_3

Translator: 549690339

Only a Grandmaster from the second realm of Inborn could maintain the Five External Bodies for more than an hour— it’s impossible for those from the first realm.

Only then could it make sense for Marquis of Wuan Bai Mengyang to be able to defend the solitary city against four Inborn Grandmasters, making the city’s defense impeccable and unbreakable.

Not to mention the difference in combat power between the second realm and first realm Grandmasters, the ability to maintain the Martial Arts External Body alone has more than doubled in duration.

With such an advantage, it’s enough to wear down many first-realm Grandmasters.

If the difference in combat power is also taken into account, it is understandable that a second-realm Grandmaster can face four first-realm Grandmasters in battle with the help of a large army.

“However, although I don’t have the strength of an Inborn second-realm, I do have the aid of Immortal Techniques.

Over the past month, I have been cultivating the Taiping Daoist Method and have gradually solidified my magical power so that I can now use three to five powerful spells.

Plus, with the accumulated power of the Five Thunder Scrolls, I can launch two thunder spells as well.”

Armed with these, if I suddenly use them, my enemies won’t have time to react, and one misstep will lead to their deaths.”

Gui Lianyun, who used his secret technique and fought two powerful enemies on a par level, will be extremely fatigued and weak when facing me.

In this state, he would have to face both my Martial Arts External Body and my Immortal Techniques.

Hehe, with this double-edged attack, I don’t believe this fierce person will not fall.”

When Lu Yuan thought of this, he couldn’t help but give a cold smile.

That’s right.

His action this time was not only to repel Gui Lianyun and seize Guining City.

Zhou People are located to the north of Changsha, and this time if the surprise attack on Xiangyang is successful, they would even have to swallow up three more cities in western Zhou Country, directly becoming enemies.

Under these circumstances, with such a powerful enemy lurking in the north, how could Lu Yuan sleep peacefully?

So, to have a sound sleep, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity of the Northern Expedition to defeat more Zhou Country forces, leaving them weakened like Yue Country, unable to look south.

The best opportunity to weaken Zhou Country was naturally during the battle for Guining City.On one side, there are three Inborn Grandmasters, and on the other side, just one bandit.

Such a golden opportunity, if not seized to slay Gui Lianyun beneath this city, would make it much more difficult in the future to face other partnered Zhou People Grandmasters.

It can even be said that it would become impossible.

Thus, right now was the only chance to take down Zhou’s Grandmaster and probably the last.

To seize this opportunity, Lu Yuan is even willing to take a small risk by using his hidden Immortal Techniques.

Fortunately, at this time, there are no other Inborn Grandmasters around him, so even if he uses Immortal Techniques, they would appear as ordinary martial artist soldiers and nobody would notice.

After all, in the eyes of these people, the Martial Arts External Body of an Inborn Grandmaster is no different from the legendary divine powers.

Unless there is another Inborn Grandmaster present, ordinary martial artists and even top martial artists would hardly recognize that Lu Yuan is using Immortal Techniques rather than Martial Arts.

In this way, as long as Gui Lianyun is killed and prevented from escaping, the risk of exposure would not be too great.

“So, there’s only one chance.”

Lu Yuan thought of this and muttered to himself before continuing to recuperate and restore his True pneuma.

He wanted to recover his strength and adjust to his peak state before Gui Lianyun arrived.

Only then would it show the basic respect required to slay a Grandmaster.

Time passed slowly.

Soon after a brief moment, a messenger from the South City hurriedly arrived.

“Your Majesty, the Queen sends me to deliver a message. She fought with the Zhou People commander, but after hundreds of exchanges, she retreated. Now Gui Lianyun is heading north…”

Halfway through his speech, Lu Yuan interrupted him with a wave of his hand: “It’s fine, I know, no need to say more.” frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

After saying that, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the city gate in the distance.

He saw a dazzling Sword Qi, rapidly approaching from the city gate.

It seemed that the Grand General of the Pillar State on the right was in a hurry. Having just taken a short break from the battle at the South City, he rushed to the North City without a moment’s rest; his tireless effort deserved to be praised.

“However, after winning two consecutive battles against grandmasters at the same level, he doesn’t take a break and comes after me. Does he think we are all worthless now?”

Lu Yuan stared at the rapidly approaching white sword aura, and the figure beneath it. His gaze became sharper. “Since you are so bold, don’t leave this time. Leave your life behind.”

As soon as the words fell, a burst of flame suddenly rose around him, so intense that it twisted the air.

With one move, a fireball formed and then roared towards the sword Qi that was rushing towards him.

There were several loud explosions, the air torn apart, and the flames danced with the sword light.

The white sword light broke through several layers of smoke, crossed tens of feet, and attacked Lu Yuan.

However, it was evident that after being hindered earlier, the sharpness of the sword Qi had been greatly reduced, losing its original power.

It was reduced to this with just one contact.

It looked like Gui Lianyun’s strength had been depleted after the previous encounters with Yang Jing and Lan Cai’er.

It seemed that he was at his limit, almost unable to hold on.

Lu Yuan probed and quickly perceived this. In his eyes flashed a cold light, and the flames around him burned hotter, without holding back his true pneuma, using it with all his strength.

In an instant, the surroundings, within a radius of more than twenty zhang, had turned into a sea of intense flames.

Even Lu Yuan’s true pneuma couldn’t sustain this for long; he’d run out of strength in a short while.

At that point, without pneuma, facing a same-level expert, he would have no choice but to surrender.

Gui Lianyun had never seen such tactics and was momentarily flustered. His sword Qi was instantly engulfed by the flames.

Although he panicked, Gui Lianyun’s heart was filled with joy.

Just as Lu Yuan had guessed, he had reached his limit and couldn’t last much longer.

He initially worried that his opponent would desperately cling to him like the previous two, trying to exhaust his pneuma.

But now it seemed that this concern was unnecessary.

Not only that, but with the opponent’s current strategy, even if he exhausted himself in three consecutive battles, the enemy would collapse first.

And when that time came…

‘Perhaps there would be an opportunity to kill this monster!’

With this thought, Gui Lianyun’s heart burned. The sword Qi around him unknowingly weakened.

No longer maintaining an aggressive approach, he tried to minimize consumption and protect himself, hoping to drag on until the enemy ran out of strength.

Lu Yuan, being extremely sharp, had instantly noticed the change in his opponent.

He couldn’t help but sneer when he thought about the other party’s intentions.

Then he saw Gui Lianyun, who was actively reducing his defenses and cautiously maintaining his consumption. Lu Yuan clasped his hands together, performed a technique, and shouted, “Suppress!”

There was a sudden boom, and a thunderous sound rang in the air.

Then, a tremendous thunderclap appeared in Gui Lianyun’s mind, instantly stunning the unprepared Inborn Grandmaster.

Gui Lianyun’s original sword Qi was instantly scattered, leaving openings.

Lu Yuan then performed another technique, and in the midst of the surrounding flames, a prepared yellow light flashed. It instantly shattered Gui Lianyun’s protective sword Qi, breaking his last line of defense.

The surrounding flames surged in immediately. It exploded, turning the Grand General of the Pillar State of Zhou into ashes.

Everything happened in an instant. An Inborn Grandmaster was decapitated and killed in the battle.
