Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant

Chapter 729 - 337: The Strange Array Resists Fake Arts

"Damn it, who the hell is trying to kill me..."Behind the waterfall, inside the cave, the talented Chen Hui kept pondering, and the more he thought about it, the more vigilant and worried he became.

The intent to kill was extremely shocking, and the enemy lurking in the dark might very well be on par with him. The most crucial part was that he had already scanned the area with his Divine Sense many times, but hadn’t detected any movement.

The more this was the case, the more dangerous it was.

As an Immortal, once his Immortal Sense was alerted, it became extremely sensitive. He was utterly convinced that someone was lurking in the dark, attempting to kill him!

"I don’t care who you are, watch closely! If you dare come in, I’ll give you a hammer first!"

As a genius of the Chen Clan, he had no shortage of treasures on him. He had already set up Restrictions in the cave to block entry, and he held a huge black hammer aloft. This was an Immortal Level treasure; if anyone dared to come in, he would directly smash them overhead!

...

Outside the waterfall.

The incoming figure moved silently, evidently having cultivated the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill to a very deep level. It would have been truly hard to detect if not for the presence of Li Que.

In the darkness.

Chi Yilan, cloaked, completely concealed his aura, quickly approaching. With moonlight cascading down, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but lift slightly, a trace of a smile in his eyes.

Tonight was destined to be a night of harvest, a night belonging to him.

He had already killed nine geniuses who successfully broke through.

Although those geniuses hadn’t truly developed a Life Seed, their bodies had accumulated green life energy. After fully absorbing it, his Dantian was already a vast sea of green, with a tender shoot faintly appearing, ready to sprout.

Just a bit more, just devour the remaining geniuses, and the Life Seed would surely form. He would become the Saint Child of the Fire Phoenix Nest. Beyond that, he and Li Nianxue would directly meet the legendary figure Purple Fairy to receive her personal guidance...

A bright future lay directly before his eyes!

He remained quite calm, fully concealing his aura, reaching the outside of the waterfall. With a swift motion, he had already crossed the waterfall, appearing at the cave entrance.

From previous incidents, these people were truly like dreamwalkers, not even realizing his approach before dying at his hands.

Thus, he comfortably entered.

"Huh?"

But as he got closer, he sensed a forbidden force present, and a Jade Pendant on him issued a warning.

－To ensure his smooth operation, Palace Master Lian Yan had specially given him this treasure, the "Restriction-breaking Jade," which could autonomously detect nearby Restrictions and Arrays, and also assist the holder in bypassing them.

This was a Golden Immortal treasure belonging to Lian Yan, suitable for dealing with Restrictions at or below the Golden Immortal Level.

He let out a cold laugh, holding the Restriction-breaking Jade, and indeed those forbidden forces couldn’t touch him. In the next moment, he had already crossed the cave entrance, entering the hall within－－

But as his gaze swept around, there was no one in sight in the cave hall.

"Hm?"

While he was puzzled, his Immortal Sense suddenly activated, detecting a terrifying sensation. As he quickly looked up, a massive black Immortal Hammer was already crashing down on him.

"What the hell?!"

Chi Yilan was taken aback. All along, he had been ambushing others—now someone was ambushing him? His expression changed dramatically, and with Immortal Light instantly enveloping him, he braced himself to withstand the blow!

Rumble!

The impact of the Immortal treasure clashing against the Immortal Light sent a massive shockwave, shattering the cliff and causing the waterfall to cascade chaotically, with water spraying everywhere and the turbulence spreading far and wide, across a thousand miles.

Li An, hidden outside, felt instant relief, success!

His efforts in waiting here hadn’t been in vain; the cultivator within the waterfall had finally met his expectations.

The disturbance spread widely, and the Tribulation Crossing Stage Array that he had set up a thousand miles away also reacted explosively at that moment.

Rumbleー

The original battle at the waterfall was already immensely tumultuous; with the array now activated, it became magnified, and the continuous mountains trembled as they shook.

This disturbance spread far and wide－－

At this moment, in another area.

"What’s going on?"

Atop a mountain peak, a young man meditating with closed eyes suddenly opened them, saying, "There’s a great battle happening in Chen Hui’s direction?"

"We all came here to seek opportunities, why the need to fight?"

He hesitated.

"Chen Hui?"

Within a cave residence, a young man stepped out, saying, "Chen Hui is in danger? No way, I have to go check it out!"

Also a genius of the Chen Clan, he moved immediately.

"Something’s not right, how could they be fighting in this world?"

"Strange..."

"Let’s go take a look!"

At that moment, many within the slumbering little world were alarmed, and quite a few headed directly towards the site of the battle.

Very quickly!

Li An, quietly observing the battle in secret, stealthily snuck closer.

At this moment, Chen Hui and the cloaked cultivator were already battling in the skies, both riding the clouds, but the situation was clear—Chen Hui’s vast Mana was unable to affect the cloaked man. He had held on thus far only by relying on the two Immortal treasures in his hand.

"Damn you, how dare you disrupt my grand plans!"

A hoarse and vengeful voice echoed through the sky as a verdant green Immortal Vine appeared on the cloaked figure, piercing through, and the power of the treasures in Chen Hui’s hands waned, unable to fend off the verdant vine, leaving him impaled.

"Ah－－"

Chen Hui let out a wretched scream as copious amounts of Immortal Power poured into the vine, which plundered everything from him. Even the verdant energy within his Dantian vanished at a rapid pace.
