Martial Cultivator Chapter 276.1: Deal with the Consequences Later! -Part 1

The saber plunged deep into the middle-aged daoist’s abdomen. When it was pulled out again, blood gushed out.

The middle-aged daoist’s expression changed slightly, as he lowered his head to look at the broken saber with a sense of bewilderment.

The cultivation of a Nepenthe cultivator was profound, with qi permeating every inch of their bodies. Even without tempering their bodies, they were still on par with those Nepenthe martial artists who did so. Moreover, most cultivators wore special robes. Although the middle-aged daoist was currently restrained, he still did not feel that Chen Chao, this martial artist in the Bitter Sea Realm, could kill him. Hence his earlier statement.

But sadly, after those words, his abdomen was pierced by the sharp broken saber, and his so-called qi permeating his entire body could not stop Chen Chao at this moment.

At this point, the middle-aged daoist realized belatedly that the young martial artist before him had clearly borrowed some kind of secret technique, temporarily possessing the ability to fight him.

In fact, such secret techniques were not uncommon among the three major schools. Whether was it burning blood essence or some other method, they could allow a cultivator to temporarily leapfrog a realm. However, such secret techniques often had significant drawbacks. The first was that because it was leapfrogging a realm, it definitely would not last long; only for a very short time. The second was the enormous price. After using such secret techniques, the lightest consequence would be severe damage to one’s vital energies. Even a drop in cultivation realm would be minor. Some people might even become crippled, unable to cultivate anymore. The more tragic outcome could be directly dying and turning into dust.

Therefore, although such secret techniques had always existed among the three schools, most of the disciples would not study them. Even those who possessed such techniques would not easily use them. After all, once used, the final price was so great that ordinary cultivators would not dare to use them unless they were facing life-threatening situations.

Chen Chao had gone from the Bitter Sea to Nepenthe, how was it just one major realm that he transcended?

However, since the other party had stepped into the Nepenthe Realm, he naturally had the ability to kill him.

The middle-aged daoist’s gaze was complex. He knew that the young martial artist in front of him could not hold on for long. But at this moment, Chen Chao was firmly suppressing the middle-aged daoist. He narrowed his eyes and said, “I know you can tell, although the time is short, it’s enough.”

As he spoke, the broken saber in his hand once again stabbed at the middle-aged daoist’s abdomen, intending to penetrate his body again.

The middle-aged daoist shook his head, and his figure suddenly dissipated, turning into a profound light and instantly appearing in the distance.

Chen Chao was stunned. There was now only a broken stone wall in front of him, and nothing else. Clearly, he had firmly held the other party, but the other party still dissipated before his eyes, leaving Chen Chao somewhat incredulous.

“How can you know about the profundities of the Nepenthe Realm?”

The middle-aged daoist glanced at Chen Chao, completely indifferent.

A ball of profound fire suddenly appeared at the wound on his abdomen, then it started burning at his wound. As the profound fire faded, his wound was restored as if it had never existed.

The middle-aged daoist reached out and casually summoned a straw from the distant cliff. He exhaled a rainbow light that fell onto the straw. The slightly withered straw now emitted a faint rainbow light, with a sense of ethereality.

Then as the middle-aged daoist’s looked at it, the straw split in the middle. An immensely boundless qi surged out and condensed into an armored divine general before him.

With a slight thought from the middle-aged daoist, the divine general before him immediately charged forward. The divine general wielding a giant sword emitted endless radiance, and even on the golden armor, there was a faint ripple.

Although the cultivation styles in the world were diverse, in fact, many years ago, most of the cultivation sects were born from Daoism. Even today, daoist cultivators remained the largest group and the most diverse in their magic spells. This magic spell used by the middle-aged daoist at this moment was one of the secret techniques of the Infatuation Daoist Temple, which was not commonly observed by ordinary cultivators.

After summoning an armored divine general, the middle-aged daoist did not stop. He slowly began to recite:

“Heavenly North Blessing, Supreme One Purple Origin.

Northern Star Profound Model, Divine Tiger Profound Senior.

Great Sage in Battle, Jade Maiden Chasing Soul.

Radiance of All Directions, descend with me.

Inhale and exhale, enter my seal.

Flow out with the qi, move with the qi.[1]

Myriad changes, supreme prosperity, and divination Swift as a decree from the Divine Tiger…”

With the words of the middle-aged daoist, a vast celestial gate slowly appeared in the sea of clouds at the edge of the cliff. Within the celestial gate, purple clouds and green mists surrounded it, as if it were the gate to the immortal realm; solemn and yet ethereal.

Thereafter, a white tiger emerged from the celestial gate, roaring as it looked at the human world.

Following the white tiger, there were two young immortal attendants; a virgin boy and girl. Each of them had a cinnabar mole on their foreheads. The boy was holding a small golden bottle, while the girl held a basin of golden sand.[2]

After this pair of immortal attendants, two men in black robes walked out. One of them was surrounded by countless talismans of various colors, which swirled around him in a peculiar manner. The other man had both hands empty, he was a divine officer from the immortal realm in Daoism legends.

The four people and the tiger stood before the celestial gate, looking down with indifference.

After a moment, the maiden grabbed a handful of golden sand from the basin, and it seemed as if a golden rain had fallen upon the earth.

The boy with the golden bottle pointed its mouth toward Chen Chao, and a fierce, long dragon emerged from the bottle. On closer inspection, it should be an iron chain gleaming with golden light.

As the endless golden sand descended, the entire valley seemed to be coated in a layer of golden brilliance; incomparably dazzling. Chen Chao was confronting the armored divine general wielding a golden sword. As their blades clashed, endless waves of energy burst forth, causing gusts of wind that surged through the valley, constantly slamming against the stone walls on both sides. In fact, during their earlier exchanges, the falling debris had continued without ceasing. By now, there were no more loose stones. However, with the reappearance of these strong winds, the previously solid rocks began to crumble one after another. The holes they left were sharp, as if they had been cut by some sharp blade.

Not sword qi.

It was saber light,

The entire ancient city began to tremble.

Chen Chao’s saber hacked onto the golden sword of the armored divine general, directly creating a nick in the sword. Before the armored divine general could react, Chen Chao’s fist smashed into the god’s forehead. The divine general, which was originally manifested by a magic spell, suddenly shattered and dissipated into golden light. However, the entire valley was now covered in the golden sand, appearing resplendent and magnificent.

Chen Chao raised his head and also saw the grand celestial gate in the sea of clouds, as well as the few figures and the white tiger in front of the gate.

Chen Chao furrowed his brows slightly, then looked at the middle-aged daoist in the distance, feeling somewhat depressed. Daoist magic spells were myriad, with endless means. The technique before his eyes was naturally something he had no knowledge of.

Taking a deep breath, the golden chain had already arrived in front of him.

The golden iron chain that transformed into a dragon was struck by the broken saber. It did not get repealed, but instead entwined itself, aiming to wrap around the broken saber.

At the same time, the talisman officer who was surrounded by talismans descended from the celestial gate. He reached out and casually pinched a talisman in front of him, then threw it, transforming it into a golden spear that flew toward Chen Chao.

The iron chain was to trap Chen Chao and provide the talisman officer with a chance to kill him.

But how could it be so easy?

Chen Chao firmly held the hilt of the saber with one hand and let the other hand hang naturally by his side.

The spear came through the air, carrying an endless golden light.

The power of this spear was so great that even an ordinary Great Beyond Realm cultivator would perish under it.

In an extremely short time, this long spear tore through endless space and finally arrived in front of Chen Chao.

Chen Chao was now locked onto by the spear and could not avoid it no matter what.

But he had never intended to dodge.

As the spear came through the air, Chen Chao grabbed it. That immense force failed to send him flying. He gritted his teeth, held onto the spear, and then forcefully turned its spearhead, throwing the spear out.

The spear, radiating endless golden light, shot towards the distance like a golden dragon, accompanied by a resounding dragon roar.

The talisman officer standing in the distance watched the golden spear leave and return, without any worry. Several talismans in front of him burst out with a series of dazzling divine lights and went to greet it.

Chen Chao reached out and grabbed one end of the golden iron chain. The iron chain was connected to the mind of the boy. When he realized that his chain was grabbed, his expression became somewhat ugly, but then he silently recited an incantation. Ripples spread out from the golden bottle in his hand, drawing out an even stronger aura. It was drawing the iron chain back.

But Chen Chao was holding onto one end of the chain, it could not return even when it was instantly taut.

The talisman officer was currently resisting the golden spear, while the girl was controlling the brilliance in the valley. The only ones who had not made a move were the divine officer and the white tiger, they had been watching indifferently without lending a hand the entire time.

The divine officer glanced at the white tiger.

The latter remained indifferent.

Only then, did the divine officer walk out. Crossing the sea of clouds, it arrived in front of Chen Chao and threw a punch out without any courteousness.

A faint divine light surrounded his fist, and one dazzling brilliance after another emerged, creating large waves here.

Chen Chao raised his saber to meet him.

The two of them started fighting here.

The saber light was unceasing, but it never managed to land on the divine officer.

The divine officer remained expressionless, throwing a punch towards Chen Chao’s chest. Chen Chao dodged it, then glanced at him, only to be struck by his fist on the shoulder.

A boundless qi instantly arrived, creating layers of ripples. A series of waves suddenly appeared here.

Chen Chao remained motionless, simply looking at the divine officer in front of him.

Swinging the broken saber in his hand, a saber light directly slashed towards that hand.

The divine officer threw a punch, landing on Chen Chao’s wrist, causing the broken saber in Chen Chao’s hand to almost drop.

Fortunately, he was now a Nepenthe cultivator and would not be hurt by a single punch.

However, the divine officer noticed that Chen Chao only had one hand free at this moment. So after this punch, his next one landed on Chen Chao’s chest all the same.

Chen Chao lifted his head.

The divine officer suddenly frowned.

A chain suddenly fell onto his body.

With a loud bang, the divine officer’s body suddenly shook. Diisscover n𝒆w chapt𝒆rs 𝒐n n0𝒗e(l)bi𝒏(.)com

At the same time, the boy’s complexion turned pale, and he became unusually illusory. The golden bottle also directly shattered.
