Chapter 1462: Chapter 0835: Bad Luck Chapter 1462: Chapter 0835: Bad Luck Chapter 0835: Bad Luck

The Second Level of the Nascent Soul Stage is stronger than the First Level of the Nascent Soul Stage, but there is no generation gap between the two, meaning that it is not impossible for a cultivator at the First Level of the Nascent Soul Stage to harm those at the Second Level.

If it were one-on-one, or even one-on-two or one-on-three, Shi Haoyuan felt he could reasonably ensure that he would not suffer much harm. However, at this moment, five Nascent Soul Masters rushed at him. They attacked fiercely and frantically, not caring about the cost.

Shi Haoyuan soon found it hard to cope. He was trying his best to fend off the attacks from the surrounding Nascent Soul Masters, while he looked towards Song He and another Nascent Soul Master who had come with them, hoping that either of them would come to his aid. However, Shi Haoyuan quickly fell into despair as he realized that both Song He and the other Nascent Soul Master were in the same situation as him, each having to deal with an overwhelming number of enemies.

At this time, Qi Tian’s ambush had already been completely mobilized. Li Xinshuang and other recently subdued Nascent Soul cultivators, Immortal Slaves, ghastly faces, and glimmering sands were all fighting on the battlefield, while Transporting Whirlwind roamed around the outskirts, ready to step in and help at any moment.

Both in terms of numbers and overall strength, Qi Tian’s side had a significant advantage. Soon, they began to gain the upper hand. The first to lose strength was an unremarkable Nascent Soul Master brought by Song He, a common cultivator at the First Level of the Nascent Soul Stage. He was entangled by three cultivators of the same level. He quickly fell into a disadvantage and turned to flee, simultaneously pulling out a Teleportation Talisman, ready to crush it and escape the secret realm. But before he could, someone crushed a Teleportation Prohibition Talisman before him, locking down the area in a ten-mile radius. As one could imagine, the unknown Nascent Soul Master’s face filled with despair. He tried to continue fighting desperately, hoping to take someone with him, but from the moment he turned to flee, his fate had already been sealed. He was brutally cleaved by a flying sword, and then a ghastly face rushed up and knocked him to the ground. Just as he struggled to get up, another flying sword flew over, striking him right in the neck, severing his head. His head split open, and his Nascent Soul fled from the Purple Mansion, full of panic.

Before the Nascent Soul could escape, Transporting Whirlwind hurried over and tightly bound it, completely cutting off any possibility of escape.

The group previously surrounding this Nascent Soul Master all turned around and moved to join the others attacking Song He.

Qi Tian had repeatedly emphasized to them that no matter what happened, their primary task was to kill Song He. Anything else, no matter how important it seemed, had to be secondary to this objective.

Even more Nascent Soul Masters were attacking Song He than were attacking Shi Haoyuan. Yet, even so, Song He managed to hold his ground. It wasn’t that they weren’t trying their hardest, but rather that Song He had too many treasures, one after another, seemingly endless.

With an endless supply of magical artifacts, Song He and the Nascent Soul Masters attacking him barely maintained a balance. He had also managed to crush a Teleportation Talisman amid the chaos. However, contrary to his expectations, he wasn’t teleported away; he quickly realized what was happening. If he hadn’t been in the midst of battle, he would have cursed out loud, realizing that he was indeed going to be killed by these bastards this time.

The arrival of reinforcements significantly worsened Song He’s situation. Initially, he had been just about managing, but now he quickly fell into a disadvantage. The defensive artifacts he carried were being consumed at an accelerated rate, and it looked like they were about to run out.

Song He was extremely anxious. He was a very capable person and took his own safety very seriously. Realizing that the situation was beyond salvaging, he racked his brains for a way to escape. He had previously spent a lot of effort collecting various treasures, some of which were suitable for use in his current predicament, though many were one-time-use only and he couldn’t guarantee they would work as he had understood. Besides, although he had many treasures, in such a critical situation, he only had the opportunity to use one of them.

Song He quickly chose one of the treasures, an Emergency Teleportation Talisman. Of course, it couldn’t teleport him out of the secret realm, but it could transport him to a random direction dozens of miles away. Using such an Emergency Teleportation Talisman is not without cost, as one should remember that the region Song He was in remained enveloped in the effects of a Teleportation Prohibition Talisman. If one could simply use an Emergency Teleportation Talisman to be teleported away, then it wouldn’t be so precious and would have already spread throughout the whole Cultivation World.

Song He held the Emergency Teleportation Talisman in his hand, sprayed a mouthful of Essence Blood onto it, then crushed the talisman. Instantly, a blood-red radiance enveloped Song He; with a flash of crimson light, he disappeared.

The Nascent Soul Masters attacking Song He never expected such a thing to happen. After a very brief moment of shock, although resentful, they could only reluctantly accept the reality. They turned around and joined others in attacking Shi Haoyuan. Song He had already escaped, so they absolutely could not let Shi Haoyuan escape as well, otherwise they would not be able to answer to Qi Tian.

Song He was overjoyed. He had not expected the Emergency Teleportation Talisman he had acquired at great cost to be so powerful. He silently vowed that he would remember everything that happened today and would one day return the humiliation he suffered a thousandfold, a hundredfold.

No sooner had this thought flashed through Song He’s mind than the emergency teleportation ended, and he was back on the ground. Before he could figure out where he was, he suddenly felt a terrifying force sweep over him immediately and rush into his Nether Sea, causing a severe disturbance in his Sea of Consciousness. He was instantly dazed and disoriented, his head spinning and muddled.

“It’s over,” Song He thought, and indeed it was over. This time, his luck with the Emergency Teleportation Talisman was very bad. Instead of teleporting him to another place, it had transported him close to Qi Tian.
