Eternal Life from the Golden Needle Technique

Chapter 117: Chapter 1114: The Blood Slaughter 3 Demons

To be honest, Si Houqing felt a little strange at this moment.

Shen Changchuan was just a young junior, only about fifteen years old.

And the aura he projected was merely at the Qi Introduction Sixth Layer Peak.

In contrast,

he was almost thirty years old.

His Cultivation had also reached the Seventh Layer Middle Stage.

But right here, right now,

it was this young man, whose age and Realm were both a cut below his, who was dominating the battle!

He didn’t feel any negative emotions like jealousy or resentment because of this.

He just found it a bit bizarre.

’Well, strength reigns supreme. Since this kid can fight above his level and managed to kill a Seventh Layer opponent in such a short time, his strength might even surpass my own. Even if his age and Realm are lower than mine, his strength is greater. Besides, if he hadn’t intervened just now, I’m afraid I would have already perished here. It’s only right for me to support him and let him take the lead,’ Si Houqing consoled himself.

After all,

the strength of these two enemies before them was not to be underestimated!

At the same time,

a trace of worry couldn’t help but rise in Si Houqing’s heart.

When he fought the two of them earlier,

he had clearly felt immense pressure from them.

Even after using numerous precious Talismans to save his life and employing every trick he had, he was still forced into a steady retreat under their combined assault, unable to hold on, and had almost been killed!

His trump cards were almost completely exhausted!

And during the battle just now,

he could distinctly feel that the two opponents were still holding back.

Now, they seemed to have been provoked into unleashing their full power.

’Can this kid and I really stop them? After all, Shen Changchuan is only at the Qi Introduction Sixth Layer Peak. And he just fought another Seventh Layer enemy. Even if he dispatched him quickly, the cost must have been considerable! He might be just like me, having used up all his last-resort techniques.’

In this situation, facing two powerful enemies who looked like they wanted to eat them alive...

’Can we win?’

A thread of anxiety inevitably rose in Si Houqing’s mind.

But at this moment,

faced with the enemies charging furiously at them,

he had no time for further thoughts!

Si Houqing could only suppress the many thoughts in his mind and go all out, joining forces with Shen Changchuan to meet the enemy head-on!

BOOOOM!!!

The battle erupted in an instant.

Violent tremors spread out from the point of impact, making the ground hum and tremble!

A storm of airflow swept through,

kicking up vast clouds of dust that swirled into the sky!

The four-person melee was incredibly fast.

Only afterimages could be seen flashing through the air, constantly crossing and clashing.

They exchanged countless blows in a split second,

so many that it was nearly impossible to follow with the naked eye!

Every clash produced a thunderous explosion!

And throughout this process,

aside from Shen Changchuan, who weaved around dodging and effortlessly unleashed the Wind Blade Technique, Sword Light Technique, Giant Sword Technique, Sword Shadow Technique, and Fireball Technique to fight his opponents,

the others, whether it was Si Houqing or the two enemies, rarely used Magic to attack.

Instead, they relied directly on their Body Techniques and Magical Power to attack.

Their fighting style was somewhat like that of Martial Artists,

not like the image Shen Changchuan had of two Cultivators standing still

and continuously blasting each other with Magic.

At most, Si Houqing would occasionally crush a few Talismans to attack or constantly use his Magical Artifact to block the enemies’ assaults, which at least somewhat resembled Shen Changchuan’s idea of a Cultivator.

If you took those away, the battle scene didn’t seem much different from a fight between Martial Artists.

This struck Shen Changchuan as odd.

However, amidst the intense clashes,

the opponents’ seemingly suicidal fighting style was putting immense pressure on Shen Changchuan,

and he didn’t dare to be the least bit careless.

He had no opportunity to ask for details and could only keep using the power of his Magic to dodge and defend.

However,

what Shen Changchuan didn’t know

was how utterly shocking and incredible his casual, continuous casting of Magic seemed to the other three.

And just how much of a psychological blow it dealt!

Never mind his partner, Si Houqing.

He knew Shen Changchuan had mastered several Perfection Level techniques, which Shen Changchuan had demonstrated back in the arena at the Wu Family Collection.

So when Shen Changchuan displayed a wide array of Perfection Techniques, although he was still profoundly shocked, he was at least somewhat mentally prepared.

But the two enemies on the other side only knew of Shen Changchuan through rumors.

So when they witnessed this unbelievable scene,

their eyes went wide, and they felt as if they were questioning their very existence!

The overwhelming rage from losing their beloved brother was even slightly diluted by the shock!

”They’re all Perfection Techniques? How is that possible?!”

”Damn it! What kind of monster is this brat?!”

It was no wonder the two were shaken and horrified.

You have to understand,

once a Cultivator reached the Qi Introduction Seventh Layer Realm,

their speed and power would undergo a qualitative leap compared to the Qi Introduction Sixth Layer and below.

Because of this,

Cultivators rarely used Magic to attack in combat at this stage.

This was because before a Magic was cultivated to Perfection, it couldn’t be cast instantaneously.

Casting Magic still required two to three breaths’ worth of time to recite the Technique, form the Dharma Seal, and channel Magical Power into a powerful attack.

But what enemy would just stand there and give you time to cast?

In the span of a single breath,

a Qi Introduction Seventh Layer Cultivator could charge from over a hundred feet away to right in front of you.

At this stage,

unless it was a Perfection Level Magic that could be cast instantaneously,

casting Magic was less effective than simply infusing a fist with Magical Power and punching!

That was why, after the Seventh Layer Realm,

battles between Cultivators vaguely began to shift toward the fighting style of Martial Artists.

At most, the destructive power of their clashes was greater than that of Martial Artists,

and they could also use Magical Artifacts and Talismans.

And that was precisely why

Shen Changchuan’s method of fighting by casually flinging around Magic was so utterly shocking!

”Big Brother, this damn little bastard has too many tricks! He’s too hard to deal with!”

”Use that technique! We must kill him at all costs to avenge Third Brother’s spirit in heaven!”

Though he was shocked,

the grief in the tall, stocky man’s heart hadn’t faded one bit.

Seeing that Shen Changchuan had so many techniques and couldn’t be easily taken down, he couldn’t help but let out a great roar.

Not far away,

the tall, skinny figure who resembled a dead tree heard him, stopped his attack, and a vicious glint flashed in his eyes. He flipped his palm over, revealing a blood-red gourd that emanated a crimson glow.

The moment the Blood Gourd appeared,

a scarlet light enveloped the surrounding space,

and the air seemed to fill with the stench of blood. Faintly, one could almost hear the wails of countless resentful souls.

’What is that?’

Shen Changchuan’s brow furrowed.

He got a very bad feeling from that Blood Gourd.

At the same time, the gourd filled him with a heart-pounding sense of crisis.

And at this moment,

on the other side,

Si Houqing’s eyes widened, and an unprecedented look of terror appeared on his face as he exclaimed in horror:

”The Blood Evil Gourd... you’re the Blood Slaughter Three Demons?!”
