Chapter 58: Fierce Battle and Retreat

  Chapter 58: Fierce Battle and Retreat

  "Kid, you're asking for trouble"

  The old man of the foundation period had never been insulted by a younger generation in the Qi refining period, and he raised a hammer-shaped treasure to meet him.

  "I'm afraid you won't get angry!" Wang Chen thought to himself, holding the Thousand Jin Sword and charging forward. This time, Wang Chen was actually planning to exchange injuries for injuries, ignoring the attacks of the old man in the foundation period and fighting desperately.

  "This kid's crazy! My treasured sword is extremely fast, it killed him instantly, what chance did he have to hurt me?"

  The old man suddenly had some thoughts in his mind and also went forward to welcome him.

  In mid-air, the hammer-shaped treasure emitted a brilliant light that struck Wang Chen's body. However, Wang Chen was unfazed and his face turned slightly pale before he launched a swift attack with the Qianjun Sword.

  "Kill!"

  In an instant, Wang Chen burst out with the peak pressure of the foundation period, and the Thousand Jun Sword also welcomed it. The old man in the foundation period was shocked by the pressure, his face changed greatly, "Foundation period cultivator, impossible!"

  Boom!

  The Qianjun Sword struck the old man's hastily raised defensive treasure, causing it to shatter into pieces. The old man lost his balance and fell off the flying sword.

  Wang Chen didn't have the ability to fly with his sword, and after a single strike in mid-air, he fell back down. The moment he landed, Wang Chen charged forward with his sword raised.

  The old man of the foundation period was also rich in combat experience, and at the moment he fell, he stuck a talisman on his body, and then stood unsteadily on the ground. Facing Wang Chen's attack, his face changed greatly, and he hastily took out another defensive treasure.

  "Fellow Taoist, I don't want the Ice Flame Fruit anymore. Please put it away and let's part ways peacefully, or else even you might not be able to escape unscathed!"

  The old man raised his defense while also starting to advise Wang Chen. During the foundation-building period, cultivators who were not vastly different in strength found it difficult to kill each other; if they weren't careful, they might end up losing their own advantage instead. If this were an ordinary cultivator, they would have agreed with the old man's words, but Wang Chen was no ordinary foundation-building cultivator - he had been craving a fierce battle for a long time and wouldn't retreat just because of some words.

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  The Qianjun Sword and the shield collided, emitting a dull sound. Three consecutive strikes later, the shield was broken, but there were still defensive treasures firmly protecting the entire body of the foundation period elder.

  "Old man, die!"

  While hitting, Wang Chen also did not forget to scold, and the old man's face turned bright red, obviously very angry.

  "You little scamp, you're pushing me too far!"

  The old man muttered to himself in the treasure vessel, his hands pinched into a decisive seal, and a huge, mysterious flame spirit aura fluctuated around him.

  Wang Chen muttered a bad word and his body stuck up, using twelve points of force to swing upwards.

  The sound of "peng peng peng" continued uninterrupted, and in the blink of an eye, Wang Chen had swung out over a dozen swords. Under the attack of these dozen or so swords, the old man from the Foundation Establishment stage was forced back by more than ten feet, spitting out fresh blood, his defensive magic tool also becoming dull and dim.

  The defensive treasure can only defend against most physical attacks, and the remaining part will still have a shock effect. Wang Chen's nearly 60,000 jin of strength, with just one swing of his sword, the residual shockwave was enough to make an old man in the foundation period spit blood.

  In terms of attack power, Wang Chen is already very close to the early stage of foundation building.

  "Die!" The old man of the foundation period spat out a mouthful of blood, his face twisted in ferocity. After finishing his spell, he let out a low growl and his complexion turned even paler.

  As the old man's low shout sounded, a flame shot out and transformed into a fire snake over a dozen feet long that charged towards him. The speed of the fire snake was extremely fast, and Wang Chen had no way to dodge it, instantly becoming entwined by the fire snake.

  A dense fire-attributed spiritual energy surrounded the Fire Serpents, forming a sea of flames that burned incessantly.

  Blazing Fire of the Red Sun!

  The foundation-building period of the old Taoist's cultivation is a relatively easy-to-advance but weaker magical technique. The scarlet sun fire can be considered a decent magical technique, with extremely high temperatures that can instantly melt even artifacts, causing massive damage.

  "Haha, you're still not dead this time!"

  Zhū jī qī lǎo dào xiāng zhāng de xiào dào, huà yīn gāng luò, huǒ hǎi màn màn de píng xī, yī ge chì shēn de qīng nián xiū shì zhàn zài kuài yào xī miè de huǒ hǎi zhī zhōng.

  English Translation:

  The old Taoist's loud laughter echoed, and as soon as the sound fell, the sea of fire slowly subsided. A naked young monk stood in the midst of the almost extinguished sea of fire.

  Wearing a green shirt, Wang Chen sneered and said, "Old man, that's all you've got?"

  "How is this possible? How can you survive in the midst of the Blazing Sun's flames?" The old Daoist stared at Wang Chen as if he had seen a ghost, and raised a flying sword to soar into the high sky.

  The old Taoist was about to leave, and Wang Chen didn't stop him. When the old Taoist's figure disappeared, Wang Chen's face turned red and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

  "The foundation period is indeed formidable!"

  After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Wang Chen felt much better and was about to leave. On the other side, the old Daoist of the Foundation Establishment stage stopped his figure in mid-air, as if he had thought of something, his face turned white and red alternately.

  "You're driving me crazy, you little brat, I'm going to kill you!"

  The old Taoist of the foundation period let out a loud roar and turned back. Wang Chen's figure was like a flying swallow, rushing through the forest, and in an instant he had passed two zhang away.

  "The old man's attack power is not much different from mine. Except for being enraged at the beginning and fighting hard with me, I won't have any advantage. If the old man stands in mid-air and wields his treasure, then I'll only be able to take a beating!"

  The old man of the foundation period is actually much more powerful than Wang Chen. We can make an analogy, a cultivator's attack power can be calculated specifically, roughly equal to the sum of the weapon and the law power and the divine consciousness, then multiplied by the boundary, multiplied by the divine secret method. The sharpness of the weapon is closely related to the combat effectiveness, and the higher quality of the pure law power and the higher divine consciousness are more powerful whether it is casting a spell or using a weapon.

  The three are added and multiplied by the boundary, which can be seen from the importance of the boundary. A person with a high cultivation boundary can kill an enemy across levels without much effort, such as the Beast Emperor thousands of years ago whose boundary was not low in the Qi Refining stage, otherwise how could he sweep through the Foundation Building stage? Of course, the role of the boundary is not limited to this, and a higher boundary also has the effect of promoting the increase of cultivation.

  "Little one, where are you escaping to?"

  A loud roar came from behind, Wang Chen heard it calmly and said to the old man in the air: "Old man, haven't you had enough beating? Let me continue beating with one hand!"

  The old Taoist of the foundation period heard the words and his seven orifices were filled with smoke, "Little boy, don't try to provoke me with your clever words, I won't go down, come on!"

  The old man finished speaking and raised the hammer-shaped treasure to kill him, but his body remained suspended in mid-air. The hammer-shaped treasure emitted a brilliant light as it came to kill, and Wang Chen held up the Thousand Jin Sword to meet it.

  "Bang!"

  Qianjun Sword and the treasure collided, the hammer-shaped treasure was knocked flying over a meter away, and Wang Chen felt his arm go numb. The old Daoist saw this and poured all of his magical power into the hammer-shaped treasure, its treasured light grew even stronger, and it came at them again.

  Whether it was a treasure or a law enforcement instrument, the monk's mental trend was as flexible as an arm. The old Dao's treasure was knocked flying by Wang Chen once, and then accelerated to avoid Wang Chen's sword, directly hitting Wang Chen's body. Unfortunately, Wang Chen was a master of playing swords, and his understanding from the Sword Book half a year ago had greatly strengthened his foundation in swordsmanship.

  With a cultivation base equivalent to the late stage of foundation building and swordsmanship that had reached an ethereal state, the treasured sword of the old Daoist from the foundation building period was beyond my control. Suddenly, the sound of "peng peng" continuously rang out around Wang Chen.

  After half an hour, the old Taoist was initially unable to withstand it and had to put a dan medicine in his mouth, which caused the old Taoist a heartache and stirred up his determination to kill.

  Wang Chen was a bit better off, but rapidly swinging the thousand-jin sword that weighed over ten thousand catties made him feel somewhat tired physically and extremely fatigued mentally.

  "It won't work, who knows how many elixirs the old Taoist has to recover his magic power, this way of fighting is not a solution!" Wang Chen had an idea in his mind and decisively crushed a talisman.

  In an instant, Wang Chen's figure vanished into thin air as he was crushed.

  "This kid's seal can only be in the early stages of foundation building, he won't get far!" The elder thought to himself as his divine sense spread out and finally caught sight of Wang Chen's figure 800 meters away.

  A moment later, the old Taoist of the Foundation Establishment stage appeared more than a hundred meters behind Wang Chen.

  "This time it's really serious!"

  Wang Chen secretly thought to himself, when suddenly a gurgling sound came from the front. Upon hearing this sound, Wang Chen's eyes lit up - there was a river! This time they were saved.

  He quietly pulled out a light blue talisman from his hand and King Chen rushed desperately towards the sound of water.

  In an instant, a hundred meters of distance flashed by, and with a splash, Wang Chen jumped into the water and disappeared. At the same time as he jumped into the water, Wang Chen's hand, which was holding the Water Escape Symbol, felt a slight stinging pain as it crumbled to pieces.

  Water Escape Symbol, a slightly unusual symbol seal. If used on the ground, the effect is simply unbearable, but when used in water, the effect is nearly doubled. For example, Wang Chen can escape for almost two kilometers in the water, instantly escaping the divine sense range of the foundation period elder.

  This water escape talisman was originally for emergency use, and it's actually useful for escaping!
