Crushing Victory, Obtaining the Talisman Master Cultivation Method

Glancing at the four people who were already thoroughly dead, Xiao Zhan shook his head.

He had not even exerted himself. He had only thrown a single punch, yet these four fellows had been beaten to death.

"Father!"

"This is bad!"

"Who is this man? Where did Lin Zhentian find such a helper?"

"Could today be the end of the Lei Family?"

The remaining Heavenly Origin Realm experts of the Lei and Xie families cried out miserably as though their parents had died. At the same time, they heard the sounds of fighting and screams coming from all around the Lei Family Courtyard.

"Master Gu, please take action! I am willing to offer up all of the Lei Family's wealth!"

The remaining few people gathered behind Master Gu. One middle-aged man in embroidered robes directly dropped to his knees and shouted loudly.

This man was named Lei Pi, and his status in the Lei Family was second only to Lei Bao.

With Lei Bao and Xie Qian dead, he knew that the Lei and Xie families were finished. If they did not deal with the helper Lin Zhentian had invited, then no matter how much wealth they had, it would ultimately benefit the Lin Family for nothing.

At this point, faced with a formidable enemy capable of instantly killing a Late Heavenly Origin Realm expert, they could only place their final hopes on Master Gu!

They hoped he could rely on a Talisman Master's strange methods to kill the invading enemy!

"Hehe, I never expected to encounter a strong man like you in this tiny Qingyang Town. It seems this place truly is a treasure land."

Master Gu, clad in a grayish-yellow robe, secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and took the initiative to cup his hands toward Xiao Zhan.

"May I ask your esteemed name? Today's matter is a private affair between the Lin Family and the Lei Family, and has nothing to do with me. I am Gu Ying, Deputy Sect Leader of Blood Robe Sect in Yan City, a Two-Seal Symbol Master. I ask that you spare me for the sake of the Sect Master and the Blood Wolf Gang."

Master Gu had chickened out, lowering his stance considerably.

Although the aura on Xiao Zhan's body was somewhat strange, the sense of danger Xiao Zhan gave him through his Spiritual Power perception was far stronger than that of the Blood Wolf Gang's leader.

One had to know that the Blood Wolf Gang's leader was a veteran Great Perfection of Core Formation Realm expert!

If he had known earlier that the Lin Family had such backing, even the Blood Wolf Gang would not have dared provoke them casually, much less a mere Deputy Sect Leader of Blood Robe Sect like him.

"Master Gu, you—"

Lei Pi and the others panicked, their eyes blazing as they panted heavily.

"Shut up!"

Master Gu's gaze turned cold as he barked.

Damn it, what a bunch of trash. They had been opposing the Lin Family for so many years, yet they had never discovered that the other side had such an unfathomable expert as backing!

So what if he was a Talisman Master? So what if he was the Deputy Sect Leader of Blood Robe Sect?

Was face more important than life? The Lei and Xie families were doomed anyway, so why should he wade into this mess?

Presumably, for the Blood Wolf Gang's sake, this expert would not attack him. Offending a Great Perfection of Core Formation Realm expert for no reason was not a wise move.

As Gu Ying thought this, the smile on his face grew even brighter.

"Blood Robe Sect? Blood Wolf Gang? What kind of trash are they, expecting me to give them face? Since you came, you can die with them."

"My son Xiao Yan said that all of you must die!"

Looking at everyone remaining in the hall, Xiao Zhan's smile was radiant, but beneath that radiant smile lay intense killing intent.

Yan'er had already said so.

The Dual-Passage Gate, which could only be crossed for two days each month, meant that if the Xiao Family wanted to grow stronger, they had to rely on a local force like the Lin Family.

The stronger the Lin Family became, the stronger the Xiao Family would become. The two complemented each other.

Xiao Zhan did not care what kind of factions the Blood Wolf Gang and Blood Robe Sect were. He only knew that this guy was blocking the Lin Family's path to becoming stronger!

Besides, the Blood Wolf Gang was already on the list of targets that had to be destroyed. The only difference between them and the Lei and Xie families was distance.

The Blood Wolf Gang was somewhat far away in Yan City. Today, he would first destroy the Lei and Xie families of Qingyang Town, along with the nearby Black Dragon Stockade. After looting everything clean, he would head to Yan City tomorrow and kill them all.

"Sir, do not be too arrogant! You should know that one should leave room for others, so that they may meet again in the future. I, Gu Ying, am not made of mud!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ying's smile froze, replaced by a trace of anger.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Two hiltless sword blades flew out, circling his body like wandering snakes. His feet also lifted half an inch from the ground as he floated upward, while an immense invisible force coiled around him.

This made Xiao Zhan raise his eyebrows slightly, piquing his interest.

An Object Manipulation Technique? As expected of a unique cultivation system. Interesting.

If an Alchemist with powerful Soul Power cultivated this Object Manipulation Technique, it should greatly enhance his combat strength, right?

Yan'er's Teacher had helped the Xiao Family so much. He had to get his hands on this Talisman Master Cultivation Method later and bring it back as a gift to show his appreciation!

"What nonsense!"

"I do not know anything about leaving room for others or womanly hesitation! I only know that my son Xiao Yan said, 'Cut the grass without removing the roots, and when the spring wind blows, it grows again!' Either do not act at all, or finish it completely!"

Xiao Zhan curled his lips disdainfully. The massive Dou Qi over the surface of his body rapidly condensed, and in an instant, thick Battle Qi Armor covered him beneath his robes.

His aura instantly soared to its peak!

"Since you gathered together yourselves, you have saved me some trouble. Today, all of you will stay behind!"

The surging Dou Qi within his body made Xiao Zhan even more domineering. With a sweep of his hand, the oppressive aura of a peak Da Dou Shi spread through the hall without reservation.

"Every other word is about your son. Are you the father, or is he the father?"

"Damn it, if you insist on exterminating us, then do not blame me for fighting you to the death!"

Gu Ying completely lost his composure. Veins bulged on his forehead as he roared, thrusting out a finger. The two sword blades circling him immediately transformed into two white streaks, shooting toward Xiao Zhan's throat with extreme speed.

He knew the gap between himself and Xiao Zhan, but in the face of death, how could he simply sit and await it?

Even if he died, he had to tear off a piece of flesh!

"Ka Cha—Bang!"

"Trivial tricks, and you dare show off before an expert? This is nothing more than a dying struggle."

Xiao Zhan crushed the sword blades with one hand, a cold smile appearing on his face. He threw a punch, and a lion-headed phantom appeared before Gu Ying like lightning before crashing down violently!

"Origin Energy Condensation, Intent of Form Creation! You are a Form Creation Realm Expert? How is that possible?!"

Gu Ying screamed sharply.

The hairs across his entire body stood on end. He smelled a strong scent of death, and then, as if his spine had been pulled out, his entire body went limp, with not a shred of fighting spirit remaining.

As Deputy Sect Leader of Blood Robe Sect, he was knowledgeable enough to know that the Form Creation Realm stood above the Great Perfection of Core Formation Realm!

Damn it, was it interesting for a Form Creation Realm Expert like him to hide in a tiny Lin Family? Even Yan City overlords like the Myriad Gold Merchant Association and the Blood Wolf Gang had never produced a Form Creation Realm Expert!

If you had said you were this strong earlier, would the Blood Wolf Gang still have sent me here to court death?

"Bang!"

The lion-headed phantom fell, blasting the resentful Gu Ying into a cloud of blood mist.

"Intent of Form Creation?"

Xiao Zhan stroked his chin thoughtfully.

The Form Creation Realm of the Profound Sky Continent corresponded to the Spirit Battle Realm of the Dou Qi Continent. I am already only half a step away from the Spirit Battle Realm. Perhaps I can use this so-called Intent of Form Creation to gain some inspiration?

"Form Creation Realm? What is that?"

"Master Gu is dead! What do we do?"

With Master Gu dead, Lei Pi and the others fell into complete despair.

"Bang Bang Bang..."

However, Xiao Zhan was a good man too, and he did not let their despair last long. With a few punches and kicks, he blew them all apart, then began looting them.

"A Universe Bag? It has a similar function to a Storage Ring. Let me see what good things are inside to bring back for Yan'er and Dong'er."

"Yang Yuan Pills, Pure Yuan Pills... Oh! Found it—the Spiritual Secret Technique, the Talisman Master Cultivation Method!"
