C18 Golden Core Battle Golden Core
After bringing Ling Qingshu out for five or six miles, Xu Yang stopped moving forward.
He looked at the night sky, which was completely silent and dark.
Ling Qingshu also stopped. She also felt that something was wrong. This place was too quiet.
"Who is it? Come out."
As she spoke, Ling Qingshu had already taken out her sword and looked in a certain direction in the darkness.
"Little girl, if you know what's good for you, hand over all your treasures, Pills, and the things you bought in the auction house. I can spare your life for one day."
A black-robed old man walked out from the darkness. As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed over.
Ever since she realized that something was wrong, Ling Qingshu had been on guard.
Now that the black-robed old man had rushed over, Ling Qingshu held the long sword in her hand and shielded her chest.
When the black-robed old man got close, Ling Qingshu raised her sword and aimed for the old man's throat.
The black-robed old man naturally wouldn't let Ling Qingshu get away with it. He formed a seal with his fingers and a golden shield appeared in front of him.
After the golden shield collided with Ling Qingshu's sword, it shattered. The black-robed old man had already arrived in front of Ling Qingshu.
He formed another seal and a huge python suddenly appeared behind the black-robed old man. It opened its ferocious mouth and bit towards Ling Qingshu.
It was unknown whether it was intentional or not, but the black-robed old man ignored Xu Yang, who was only at the Qi Refinement Stage.
In his eyes, a Qi Refinement Stage Xu Yang was not a threat to him at all.
And Xu Yang was just quietly standing there, showing no intention of participating in the fight between the two of them.
This black-robed old man had already discovered Xu Yang's whereabouts.
At the beginning, in the Spirit Treasure Auction House, the black-robed old man was the one who had fought with Ling Qingshu for the Cloud Beast's divine egg.
After the auction ended, he had been following Xu Yang and Ling Qingshu the entire time.
Killing people and setting fires were common in the cultivation world.
When one was too poor, they would need a large sum of money to support their wallets.
Not to mention that Xu Yang and Ling Qingshu had bought the divine egg in the Spirit Treasure Auction House.
The black-robed old man had read a few words about the divine egg from the ancient books of his sect, and he was very interested in the divine egg's mystical properties.
Moreover, there was a secret technique in his sect that allowed him to plunder the essence of the divine egg for his own use.
Under all these conditions, the black-robed old man chose to follow the two of them and wait for an opportunity to kill them.
Xu Yang did not care about a Golden Core cultivator following him. If he really did something that he did not like, he would just kill him with a wave of his hand.
"Little girl, you have just broken through to the Golden Core Stage, but you can actually hold out for so long in my hands. I think the inheritance of your sect must be extraordinary.
If you give me the cultivation technique and the mantra, I will spare the life of that pretty boy behind you."
After fighting with Ling Qingshu, the black-robed old man was actually unable to take down Ling Qingshu for a moment, and he even had the possibility of being killed by Ling Qingshu at any time.
Although this possibility was not very high, the black-robed old man was still on guard, and he began to think about the cultivation technique that Ling Qingshu cultivated.
"If you want my cultivation technique, then let's see if you have the ability to do so."
Ling Qingshu wiped her fingers on the long sword, and a sharp intent exploded from her body.
When she swung her sword again, every sword strike was accompanied by sword Qi.
The black-robed old man took out a small seal and turned it into a large seal in midair. After blocking Ling Qingshu's sword Qi, he smashed it towards Ling Qingshu.
As Ling Qingshu's attacks became more and more fierce, the black-robed old man's heart no longer had any thoughts of seizing her cultivation technique.
Now, he only wanted to get rid of Ling Qingshu and kill the little brat who was watching the battle from the side to complete the act of killing and stealing.
Ling Qingshu's response to the black-robed old man's attack was somewhat lacking.
However, as the two of them continued to fight, she became more and more proficient in using the Golden Core mana in her body.
The python swam around Ling Qingshu, biting at her from time to time.
The black-robed old man held the small seal in his hand and waited for the right time. Once Ling Qingshu showed a flaw, he planned to kill her in one strike.
Xu Yang watched the two of them fight from the side. Although the two of them fought in a very crude manner, he was still very satisfied with Ling Qingshu's performance.
To be able to continuously make up for her deficiencies after continuously exchanging blows, Ling Qingshu's talent could be considered above average in the past Tianlan Sect.
"Little girl, die!"
After defending for a long time, the black-robed old man finally found a flaw in Ling Qingshu's defense, and he directly threw out the small seal in his hand.
Ling Qingshu hurriedly raised her sword to block it, and her entire body was sent flying backwards.
The black-robed old man planned to chase after her victory and once again threw out the small seal towards Ling Qingshu.
Ling Qingshu flew backwards, wanting to raise her sword to block the small seal that was flying towards her, but she was unable to do so in time.
The black-robed old man's face revealed a sinister smile. In his eyes, Ling Qingshu would be turned into meat paste by his magic treasure in the next moment.
"Little girl, die!"
In the next second, the black-robed old man was stunned, and a person appeared in front of Ling Qingshu.
It was the Qi Refinement Stage cultivator that he had always ignored, and now he had actually suddenly appeared in front of Ling Qingshu.
In the hands of that little white face of the Qi Refinement Stage, there was a thing that he was holding, and it was his magic treasure, the small seal.
The black-robed old man widened his eyes and looked at Xu Yang with a face full of disbelief.
"Your performance is still alright. It's already not bad for you to be able to do this much against a late-stage Golden Core cultivator."
Xu Yang casually threw away the magic treasure that he had captured, and it instantly disappeared from where it was.
When he reappeared, Xu Yang had already appeared beside the black-robed old man.
The python sensed Xu Yang's presence and opened its bloody mouth to attack Xu Yang.
Xu Yang did not take the python's attack seriously. He only raised his hand slightly.
The black-robed python fell into Xu Yang's hand. This was a divine ability that was extremely famous in the Tianlan Sect tens of thousands of years ago.
There were once people from the Tianlan Sect who used this divine ability to control the stars, the moon, and the dragons.
Now that Xu Yang had used this divine ability, although it was not as terrifying as before, it was still easy for him to control some ordinary magic treasures and spells.
With a casual pinch, the black python turned into a ball of black smoke in Xu Yang's hand and disappeared into nothingness.
"You want to kill me and steal my goods, but you should at least know what you are doing."
Xu Yang attacked again. The black-robed old man felt that the Golden Core in his body was out of control and had an impulse to break out of his body.
"How is this possible?"
The black-robed old man was shocked. Xu Yang's divine ability was actually able to affect the Golden Core in his body. Why had he never heard of this before?
"I will grant you the Golden Core to leave your body and die."
Xu Yang's five fingers turned into claws. The black-robed old man could no longer suppress the Golden Core in his body. His Golden Core broke out of his body and landed in Xu Yang's hand.
The Golden Core was forcefully taken away by Xu Yang, and the black-robed old man lost his life.
The Cloud Beast standing on Xu Yang's shoulder swallowed the Golden Core that Xu Yang handed over and spat out a cloud of mist as if it had burped.
