Chapter 242: The Eye of Fire
Beside Xuan Kun, two cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage were horrified when they saw Xuan Kun kill Qinglian in the late Foundation Establishment stage with one palm. They had completely lost their anxiety about the formation assessment in front of them.
Looking at Xuan Kun in front of her, the woman at the eighth level of Qi Refining exclaimed in her heart.
"This person has hidden his cultivation level? A Jindan cultivator?"
Thinking of this, he shouted in shock at the cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan realm.
"Elder, save me!"
As he spoke, he ran towards him.
However, the man at the tenth level of Qi Refining didn't dare to make a sound. His thoughts were the same as the woman at the eighth level of Qi Refining, but his actions were the opposite. He had already taken a few steps back, wanting to escape through the stone gate. He knew it clearly in his mind.
"A person with hidden cultivation who can kill a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage with a single blow must also be a Jindan cultivator. Only a Jindan cultivator can do that. A great war is bound to break out here. I'd better leave as soon as possible."
Xuan Kun's consciousness of the middle Nascent Soul stage had already covered the place. He naturally knew the actions of the two people, but he did not stop them, nor did he answer the questions of the middle-aged man in the Core Formation stage. Instead, he walked towards the stone chamber on his own.
The woman at the eighth level of Qi Refining ran to the middle-aged man at the Jindan stage, pulled at the corner of his clothes and shouted.
"Elder! He just killed your disciple. Kill him quickly. This person is hiding his power and must be an enemy of the Hehuan Sect. Elder, please kill him."
The middle-aged man who had reached the Jindan stage felt the oppression from Xuan Kun, and saw the three-colored spiritual power that he had just used to cover the stone chamber. He was suddenly shocked and understood his own ending and situation.
Looking at the female Qi-refining cultivator who was pulling at his clothes and asking him to take action, he immediately became furious and spat out two words with gritted teeth.
"Noisy!"
As he spoke, he swung out with a palm, directly smashing the female Qi-refining cultivator into a pulp, with blood splattering everywhere, just like how Xuan Kun had previously killed his disciple Qinglian with a single palm strike.
Then the middle-aged man who had reached the Jindan stage didn't even look at the female Qi-refining cultivator who had turned into meat paste. He turned his eyes to Xuan Kun and thought to himself.
"You ignorant ant! I'm only in the middle stage of the Core Formation stage. Judging from his previous actions and the spiritual power he displayed, he's most likely a Nascent Soul cultivator. Trying to kill him is like an egg hitting a stone. Forget killing my disciple! Even if he kills my parents, wife, and children, I wouldn't dare to move!"
"After all, in his eyes, I'm just a bigger ant!"
Thinking of this, looking at Xuan Kun walking towards him and his appearance, he couldn't help but compare it with his own memory, and finally he was certain in his heart.
"I have absolutely never seen him, and I have absolutely no connection with him. He probably wasn't coming for me."
After thinking this, he knelt down and bowed his head.
"Senior, I am the elder of the Hehuan Sect. May I ask why you have come to our Hehuan branch sect? If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know."
Xuan Kun had no expression on his face when he heard this, as if he was looking at a dead person. He looked at Yan Lai, the Jindan elder of the Hehuan Sect, who was standing under his feet, and said in a cold voice.
"Oh, there is one thing, that is, die!"
As he spoke, three-colored spiritual energy burst out and shot towards Yan Lai who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed.
When Yan Lai heard that Xuan Kun did have something to say, joy flashed in his eyes. He understood that this senior was not here to kill him. When he heard the last two words, the joy on his face suddenly changed into a stunned look of shock. He hurriedly looked up and shouted.
"Senior, please show some mercy and spare my life!"
But he saw the last light of his life. The red, blue and green spiritual powers went straight through Yan Lai's brain as if to take his life. His head exploded and his body collapsed powerlessly to the ground. He was already deader than dead.
When Xuan Kun saw this, his expression remained unchanged. A three-colored spiritual barrier appeared in front of Xuan Kun, blocking Yan Lai's head from exploding and splattering his brains everywhere. Without Xuan Kun making any movement, the three-colored barrier disappeared, and the brains on it slowly slid down.
Looking at the headless corpse lying dead in front of him, Xuan Kun raised his hand and hooked it, and the storage bag on Yan Lai's waist fell into Xuan Kun's hand. Looking at the storage bag, Xuan Kun said coldly.
"Show mercy?"
"Spare your life?"
"Have you ever spared the life of a member of my Xuan family in your Hehuan Sect for thirty-two years? Have you ever spared the life of a disciple of my Five Elements Sect?"
"As a Jindan cultivator of the Hehuan Sect, you also participated in the battle thirty-two years ago!"
"If not, then if you want to blame someone, then blame yourself for being a member of the Hehuan Sect!"
At the stone gate, the man who was at the tenth level of Qi Refining had been frantically pushing the stone door to get out, but found that the stone door could not be opened. He used spiritual power spells, but the same thing happened.
Just now, after seeing Xuan Kun kill the Hehuan Sect's Jindan Elder with one strike, he realized that he had guessed wrong. This was not a war that was about to break out, but a one-sided massacre.
After hearing what Xuan Kun had just said, he could not help but kneel down and beg for mercy, trembling all over and pleading loudly.
"This... Senior, I... know nothing, I... saw nothing, I... heard nothing. Please... spare my life!"
Xuan Kun did not turn around, but just smiled slightly and then walked towards the depths of the stone chamber.
The man who was at the tenth level of Qi Refining was sweating profusely and shaking all over. He looked at Xuan Kun who was leaving with the corner of his eye, and felt relieved in his heart.
"I was saved. I didn't die... I survived."
Suddenly, the voice of death came to my ears.
"Die! Blame it on choosing the wrong sect."
Immediately afterwards, with a "bang", his head exploded.
Xuan Kun didn't even glance back as he muttered to himself, "Although I don't like killing, my plan cannot fail."
At this moment, he was walking cautiously in the depths of the stone chamber, his spiritual sense scanning the depths. Suddenly, Xuan Kun smiled and couldn't help but speak.
"Sure enough, it's here. The center of the fire formation is deep in this stone chamber."
As he spoke, his body flashed and appeared at the edge of a formation. There was a red flag in the formation.
Xuan Kun looked at the formation flag, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he couldn't help but recall the past.
……
More than thirty years ago, Xuan Kun achieved the Nascent Soul stage. Jin Xing, the formation master of the Five Elements Sect, took Xuan Kun to visit the Five Elements Sect and told him about the five key points of the Five Elements Sect's protective formation, the Five Elements Tai Chi Bagua formation.
After all, Xuan Kun, a Nascent Soul expert who was cultivated and grown from the Qi Refining Realm by the Five Elements Sect, is one of our own and we should have absolute trust in him.
Xuan Kun still remembered the first place Jin Xing brought him to, which was the center of the Fire Formation at the foot of the Five Elements Formation Mountain.
Jin Xing said with relief, "Xuan Kun, our Five Elements Sect's foundation is not inferior to other sects, but it is not weak in the cruel world of immortal cultivation. Now with your joining, our Five Elements Sect has entered an era of three Yuanying. I believe that it will get better and better in the future, and there will be more and more Yuanying masters. You are the one who started this powerful trend."
