Immortal Technique: Great Fireball

Lin Chuan took a deep breath and directly exhaled at the nine people in front of him. The violent crimson flames immediately turned into a massive fireball more than three meters in diameter, crushing its way through the already narrow cave passage.

"This... a spell... how is that possible!!"

"Damn it, isn't it only after reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage that one can cast spells? What is this guy's cultivation level!!"

"It's over! Run..."

Seeing the spell Lin Chuan unleashed, the nine people lost all will to resist and turned to flee!

However, no matter how fast they ran, how could they outrun the Great Fireball Technique that had already been cast!

The scorching flames instantly engulfed the figures of the nine people, and shrill screams rose one after another, but not a single person emerged from the terrifying flames.

The basic ninjutsu of the Uchiha clan finally shone brilliantly in this otherworld that did not belong to Naruto. This technique, most frequently used in the original work but never having killed anyone, finally completed its first kill.

The scorching heat even affected Qin Lang and Bu Lianshi behind Lin Chuan, because this was not just the Great Fireball Technique, but the Sage Art: Great Fireball Technique, which was no less powerful than when Uchiha Itachi first used it!

After the flames subsided, the corpses on the ground were almost without even remains, having turned into ash.

Puff!

After releasing this sage art, Lin Chuan spat out a mouthful of blood, unable to hold on any longer. His body slowly softened. He only felt Qin Lang rush over at the last moment and catch him.

"Get me out of here, quickly! Someone's coming!"

Lin Chuan said with his last ounce of strength. This was what he saw when he used his Byakugan. Because of the previous fight between Qin Lang and Bu Lianshi with these people, many people had been alerted and were rushing towards this direction. If they didn't leave now, they would face the encirclement and suppression of many cultivators.

"Go!" Qin Lang carried Lin Chuan on his back with all his might, and fled towards another lava tunnel with Bu Lianshi.

The tunnels here were as numerous as a maze. Without Lin Chuan's Byakugan guiding them, it was impossible for them to find a way out in a short time. They could only find a hidden place to hide and make other plans.

Qin Lang's spiritual energy was already running low. After such a long battle, no matter how good their talent or how fast their spiritual energy recovery was, it could not keep up with the rate of consumption, especially after using their protective magic treasures.

Bu Lianshi, who was responsible for defense, was even worse off. Her cultivation was not as high as Qin Lang's. Although the bronze mirror magic treasure had good defensive capabilities, she was already injured in the first confrontation with Wu Hai. It was a miracle that she could hold on until now.

At this moment, the three of them were truly at their wit's end. If they encountered the same situation as before, they wouldn't even need to fight; they could just wait to die.

After running for about a kilometer, Qin Lang felt as if his legs were filled with lead, and every step was a challenge to his limits. But he still gritted his teeth and moved forward, refusing to give up until the very last moment.

As he rounded a corner, a group of three figures appeared before them. Qin Lang's heart sank to the bottom.

"Two at Qi Refining Stage level three, one at Qi Refining Stage level two!" Bu Lianshi quickly assessed the opponents' cultivation, but a wry smile appeared on her lips.

If they had been at this strength before, they would not have been afraid at all. But now, the three of them, who were at their wit's end, had no strength left to fight.

"Use the last bit of spiritual energy and charge through!" Qin Lang said in a deep voice. This was the last resort.

"Okay!" Bu Lianshi nodded.

The two of them exerted their strength simultaneously, reaching their maximum speed, as if a final burst of energy, charging towards the opposite side.

"Huh? This group of people isn't weak in cultivation, but they seem to be injured! Should we make a move?"

"They should have quite a few Spirit Cores and Crimson Flame Lotuses on them. This is a good opportunity, let's kill them!"

The three on the opposite side hesitated for almost no time and immediately decided to attack. In this cruel world where people eat each other without spitting out bones, if you don't kill others, you can only wait to be killed. Everyone, even children, had lost their innocence.

Bang! Bang!...

When the three people's fists and kicks landed on Qin Lang, he offered no resistance or defense. Instead, he endured the pain and rushed through the three of them. Bu Lianshi, who was by his side, even used her body to block the attack aimed at Lin Chuan.

Blood flowed from the corners of their mouths simultaneously. This was their final gamble.

"Damn it, they got away, chase them!"

The three of them didn't expect such a desperate charge and were stunned for a moment, allowing Qin Lang and the others to break through.

"There are about three hundred meters left to that place. Lin Chuan discovered it with his Byakugan, a hidden place where Crimson Flame Lotuses grow. As long as we get there, we'll be safe. We must hold on!" Qin Lang chanted in his heart. His consciousness was already a little blurry, and he was only sustained by a strong will.

However, as if it were a joke played by heaven, when they turned another corner, they saw the three people standing in the middle of the passage again. And these three were not strangers, but Han Qing and his two companions who had almost clashed with Lin Chuan earlier.

"It's them..." Han Qing recognized the two the moment he saw Qin Lang and Bu Lianshi. Then he saw Lin Chuan, who was unconscious and being carried on Qin Lang's back.

"Are they all injured? And even he is seriously injured and unconscious. What did they encounter..." Han Qing's brows furrowed slightly.

"Should we make a move?" one of Han Qing's companions said in a deep voice. This was a good opportunity. Qin Lang had taken so many of their Spirit Cores, he must have quite a few good things on him.

"Wait..." Before Han Qing could finish speaking, he saw three figures appear again at the end of the cave. The purpose of these three was obvious; it could be seen at a glance that they were pursuing Lin Chuan and the others.

"There are still people chasing them, two at Qi Refining Stage level three, one at Qi Refining Stage level two. Such cultivation levels have forced them to flee for their lives. Did they encounter some powerful enemy?" Han Qing's mind raced, and his expression became somber.

"Attack! Help the white-haired youth block the pursuers!" Han Qing's eyes narrowed, and he finally made a decision.

"But..."

"There's no 'but'. That white-haired youth's strength is unfathomable. Don't think that just because he's unconscious now, we can definitely kill him. One wrong move and we could all die!" Han Qing said in a deep voice, a pair of blood-red eyes that he remembered vividly flashing in his mind. "Trust me, saving him will be much more worthwhile than killing him!"

After saying this, Han Qing rushed out, heading straight for Qin Lang.

Seeing Han Qing charge towards them, Qin Lang and Bu Lianshi were almost desperate. However, at the moment of their approach, Han Qing did not attack them. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "You guys leave quickly, I'll deal with the people behind you!"
