Cultivating Immortality in Two Realms

Chapter 208 Snatching Food from a Tiger's Mouth

"hateful!"

Master Nusha wielded a giant battle axe, continuously activating the "Blood Sea Ten Thousand Sharks Formation"!

His cultivation had already reached the peak of the mid-stage Core Formation realm, and he had a trump card up his sleeve.

The Blood Shark is the king of the "Blood Shark" demon race and can ride a group of sharks.

After Master Nusha contracted his natal spirit pet, he spent a huge amount of money to buy this battle formation technique!

The so-called battle formation is naturally a mobile formation, which is used by cultivators or demonic beasts as the base of the formation.

Although its power may not be as great as a fixed formation, it is quite convenient.

If he were to cooperate with his own third-tier mid-grade Blood Sea Shark, he could contend with late-stage Core Formation cultivators.

With this battle formation technique added, it might even be able to defeat a late-stage Core Formation cultivator.

Unfortunately, the Ice Heaven True Man he was facing was not a late-stage Core Formation cultivator, but a Core Formation Perfection cultivator!

"cut!"

Master Bingtian formed hand seals, and the numerous icy swords suddenly condensed, transforming into a massive ice-grade giant sword. White flames even began to burn on the tip of the sword, and with a fierce slash, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and water froze instantly.

Before the low-level blood shark could react, it was frozen in the frozen seawater, like a small insect inside amber.

"Ah... Blood Demon Transformation, swiftly!"

Enraged and furious, Master Nusha sensed a threat to his life, bit his tongue, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The essence and blood mixed with the blood of ten thousand demons instantly transformed into a crimson giant shark, opening its blood-red maw to bite at the icy giant sword.

The greatsword of ice, shimmering with a white light, crashed down with a deafening roar.

puff!

The white spiritual fire erupted, bringing an extreme chill that turned the surrounding area into a world of ice and snow.

In the blink of an eye, the monstrous shark formed from the blood demon turned into an ice sculpture, which then cracked inch by inch under the blows of the giant sword.

"A cold-attribute spirit fire?"

Blood Shark Master felt a chill run down his spine. He recalled the battle formation secrets he had collected, which recorded several techniques and supernatural abilities that Blood Fiend Qi most feared. He was horrified, and a realization dawned on him: "This Ice Heaven Immortal isn't hostile to me… but rather, he chose me because I am the most effective counter to him?"

Unfortunately, it was too late.

"go!"

Master Bingtian made another hand seal, and the ice palace crashed down with a deafening roar.

One after another, jade palaces, imbued with immense power, crashed into the horde of blood demons, turning countless monsters into a bloody pulp.

Before the ice palace, a massive archway entirely formed of solidified ice appeared, its surface covered with countless dense runes that strung together chains, tightly binding and suppressing the mid-grade third-tier Blood Sea Shark beneath the archway! "Blood Sea?"

The Angry Shark Master was greatly alarmed. Several third-tier talismans in his hands instantly ignited, transforming into spells like mountains of knives and seas of fire, which landed on the icy palace, but could only cause negligible damage. Above his head, a semi-transparent ice shield had appeared unnoticed, and beams of cold light descended, seemingly even freezing his divine sense. "I'll fight you to the death!"

Master Nusha's blood and qi surged, clearly indicating that he had used some kind of demonic secret technique. His aura suddenly surged, and a blood-red hand slapped down, actually knocking the "Three Yin Profound Ice Shield" away! Master Bingtian's expression was serious, knowing that Master Nusha had begun to fight desperately.

With a wave of his hand, a snow-white array appeared, transforming into countless sword lights that enveloped the two of them...

Blood Shark.

The True Immortal Chixin wielded a fiery red flying sword, pouring his true inner energy into it fiercely. Suddenly, the sword transformed into a fire dragon, its claws slamming down onto the formation. Whoosh!

Faced with attacks from multiple Core Formation cultivators, the already overburdened formation collapsed instantly.

"Huh? The formation is broken?"

The True Man of Red Heart shuddered, and a glint of greed immediately appeared in his eyes.

He is getting old and is preparing to establish a family, which requires a lot of spiritual resources.

The "Blood Shark" is the lair of the Angry Shark Master, where he has accumulated years of loot from robberies...

The True Man of Red Heart transformed into a streak of light and was about to rush into the Blood Shark when he saw a frost sword light that was even faster than him.

"It is Zhang Xueyue, the Ice Fairy... the beloved disciple of Master Bingtian."

True Immortal Chixin slowed his escape, not daring to compete with this newly promoted Core Formation cultivator.

Then, the icy sword light split into countless pieces, killing several Foundation Establishment cultivators before rushing into the cabin.

But not long after, a kind shout rang out: "You thief, how dare you?"

Stab it!

A dazzling sword light, accompanied by the sound of thunder, severed the Blood Shark in two, revealing an empty cabin.

Clearly, the largest treasure ship has already been boarded by someone else.

And that first one to ascend... the True Man of Red Heart actually looked quite familiar!

"It's that Master Fang Shui!"

"A Void Body, a formidable individual who managed to escape from the clutches of True Immortal Ice Heaven!"

He shrank back, his escape light continuing to retreat, not wanting to be remembered by this peerless villain.

As for Zhang Xueyue later?

There's nothing we can do about it.

Even the True Immortal Chixin glanced around and noticed that his fellow Daoists, understanding each other perfectly, silently distanced themselves...

"Fang Shui?"

Zhang Xueyue, wielding the Frost Sword, exclaimed in surprise, her eyes even flashing with a hint of fighting spirit, as she thrust her sword forward.

Whoosh!

The Frost Sword vainly pierced through the void; the place where Fang Qing had been was now empty.

When he reappeared, he was already behind Zhang Xueyue, less than ten feet away from her!

At such close range, Fang Qing could even smell the faint floral fragrance on the woman and see the fear hidden deep in her pupils beneath her pale face... Whoosh!

But his eyes remained calm and unwavering as he handed out the "Kill the Wolf" sword.

The light of countless stars shimmered, and the sword energy was like smoke and mist... This sword thrust out carried a subtle arc, as if it had found the weakness of Zhang Xueyue's true core power, directly attacking from the weak point, easily dismantling the opponent's magic power defense, and splitting that delicate face in two.

"This is... Sword Heart Clarity?"

"In the heat of battle, the sword moves with the heart, revealing the weaknesses in the enemy's spells and magic... a feat akin to a master butcher dissecting an ox..."

After killing the woman, Fang Qing smiled slightly at the Core Formation cultivators around him, then his figure once again disappeared into the void...

"not good!"

True Immortal Chixin was terrified, fearing that a peerless swordsman might suddenly appear within his three-foot-wide territory.

Other Core Formation cultivators, like him, used all sorts of protective spells and magical treasures without restraint.

Suddenly, the battlefield was ablaze with various lights, but Fang Qing was nowhere to be seen...

With a flash of light in the void, Fang Qing had already arrived above the mid-grade third-tier Blood Sea Shark that was being suppressed by the Ice and Snow Palace.

"cut!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Sha Po Lang attacked again.

Sword energy condenses, drawing forth thunderous sounds, and the sword's heart becomes clear...

With the enhancement of various sword dao realms, plus the magic power of the mid-stage Core Formation, his sword strike would make even a mid-stage Core Formation swordsman feel inferior.

puff!

The Blood Shark was heavily restrained and unable to defend itself. Its massive head was immediately severed by a single sword strike.

Amidst the gushing blood, a fist-sized crimson inner core emerged, its surface shimmering with light. It attempted to transform into a streak of light and escape, but was intercepted by Fang Qing, who was prepared. Fang Qing coldly snorted. The Vajra Pestle formed from his divine sense moved at will, immediately causing the crimson demon core to tremble violently.

Then, Sha Polang lightly flicked his wrist and took the third-grade mid-level inner core in his hand.

"How dare you?"

Splash!

The white light array shattered, revealing the figure of Ice Heaven Immortal.

He was still holding the Angry Shark Master, whose magic power had been imprisoned, and he stared at Fang Qing with eyes wide with rage!

This man not only stole his spoils, but also killed his beloved disciple!

Unfortunately, this is a temporary battlefield, and there is no forbidden formation that can isolate the void.

No matter what Bing Tian Zhenren roared, Fang Qing only took it as the lament of a defeated dog.

In an instant, his figure flashed and he stepped into the void, disappearing without a trace...

The instant he vanished, several icy swords pierced futilely through the void where Fang Qing had stood...

Only after seeing that True Immortal Bingtian had captured the great enemy and returned did True Immortal Chixin and the other Core Formation cultivators dare to approach.

But seeing the other party's expression, he dared not say anything about calming down, Master.

"If it were me, and my beloved disciple was killed and most of the spoils of war were taken away, I'd probably be so angry I'd vomit blood..."

"At this juncture, the more you say, the more mistakes you make; better to remain silent than to speak a thousand words..."

The True Man of Pure Heart honestly focused his eyes on his nose and his heart on his nose... remaining completely still.

After a long while, the voice of Master Bingtian was heard: "Clean up the battlefield... Not a single Core Formation cultivator under Master Nusha can be spared... Remember, evil must be eradicated completely!" Zhong Meng.

Inside the cave.

Fang Qing emerged from the void and silently sat cross-legged.

"This time the harvest was quite substantial... All the expenses I incurred in crafting the 'Sea-Swallowing Bottle' were paid for by True Immortal Bingtian! Serves him right!" "Furthermore, according to calculations, this was just collecting interest; this person's fate is sealed, and there's more to come..."

Fang Qing glanced at the several bottle-shaped spiritual artifacts displayed in the cave and nodded slightly.

He uses alchemical fire to refine artifacts and can create spiritual artifacts, which barely qualifies him as a second-tier artifact refiner. He can now begin refining his natal magic weapon.

"However... before that..."

Fang Qing sat cross-legged, silently circulating the "Sea-Swallowing Technique" within his body.

That jet-black true pill, surpassing even the highest grade true pill, slowly rotated, like a black hole, greedily devouring everything.

"Give it a try..."

He took out the third-tier mid-grade inner core of the "Blood Sea Shark," and a layer of dark, mysterious light suddenly emanated from his hands.

Suddenly, the sound of ocean waves echoed from the secluded room.

Layer upon layer of pitch-black seawater churned, forming a whirlpool or an eye of the ocean, emanating a powerful suction force that devoured the mid-grade, third-tier Blood Shark Demon Core! "Whoosh..."

Fang Qing sighed contentedly, feeling a surge of warm, water-attribute spiritual energy within his dantian, continuously being refined by his true core. The effect far surpassed that of consuming mana-enhancing pills! Moreover, this water-attribute spiritual energy underwent multiple layers of filtration and transformation upon passing through the "Sea Eye," making it exceptionally pure for a demonic cultivator. "It's a pity it's still not enough. Fortunately, I still have the Dao-Generating Pearl..."

"If it's merely about absorbing inner cores to increase magical power... then the 'Sea Devouring Demon Art' that the tortoise spirit spoke of seems to be all bark and no bite..."

Fang Qing silently circulated the "Sea-Swallowing Technique" and carefully experienced it, when he suddenly discovered something was amiss.

Around him, thick black seawater churned, and it seemed that a blood shark was swimming in it.
