Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space - Chapter 250: 236 Temporary Respite from Conflict

Chapter 250: Chapter 236 Temporary Respite from Conflict

“`

If two Five Thunder Talismans were used on Liu Yiyuan, with his fourth level Foundation Establishment cultivation, he wouldn’t die, but he’d lose a layer of skin.

What’s more important is…

It would slow down his escape, putting him in even greater danger from what pursued him from behind.

Although.

The Five Thunder Talisman could cause collateral damage due to its large range.

But at this critical moment, Lin Jing couldn’t care less…

As long as Liu Yiyuan continued to charge at him, he dared to throw them directly.

Just then, Lin Jing spoke up:

“Fellow Daoist, let me help you…”

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyuan saw the Five Thunder Talismans in Lin Jing’s hands and a bad premonition arose in his heart.

Then he looked at Lin Jing…

At that moment.

Lin Jing was staring at him, not at the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants behind him.

His heart couldn’t help but thump.

“Could it be that he plans to strike at me at this moment?”

It wasn’t just Liu Yiyuan; others also saw the Five Thunder Talismans in Lin Jing’s hands.

They hurriedly cried out to dissuade him:

“Fellow daoist, be careful, the Five Thunder Talisman could easily cause collateral damage…”

The Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants were chasing Liu Yiyuan at that moment but were very close to the others.

If Lin Jing used the Five Thunder Talismans to attack the ant, given the wide range of the talisman, it could easily injure the people nearby.

But as soon as those words were spoken, Lin Jing had already thrown the Five Thunder Talismans in his hand.

The talismans didn’t attack the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants, nor did they attack Liu Yiyuan, but formed a huge thunder screen in front of him…

Blocking the path he was charging on.

He indeed wanted to attack Liu Yiyuan.

But…

Not now.

Because.

Liu Yiyuan’s words just now had made many people feel goodwill towards him, and he also had justice on his side.

If Lin Jing really directed the Five Thunder Talismans at Liu Yiyuan, he would probably become the target of all in an instant.

Many would feel discontent with him because of this, and it might even be disadvantageous for him.

After releasing the Five Thunder Talismans, Lin Jing hurriedly thanked the person who had reminded him:

“Thank you, fellow daoist, for the warning, or I might have caused a disaster…”

Seeing that the talismans hadn’t exploded amidst the crowd, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Lin Jing had achieved his goal.

Now, there was a thunder screen formed by the Five Thunder Talismans between him and Liu Yiyuan. He could either continue to retreat or charge into the screen.

But…

Liu Yiyuan obviously wouldn’t do that.

The moment Lin Jing threw the Five Thunder Talismans, he knew that his opportunity was lost.

If he charged into the thunder screen now, let alone whether he could get through, such an action would make it clear to anyone what his true purpose was.

Afterwards.

Liu Yiyuan didn’t dare to charge at Lin Jing anymore and instead turned his direction, rushing towards the two elders.

On the way…

He passed by the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant, which seized the chance and leapt at him with its mouth wide open.

However, Liu Yiyuan was clearly prepared.

At the moment the ant attacked, a white light shone from Liu Yiyuan, directly blocking the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant.

Clearly.

Whatever could defend against that ant’s attack was no ordinary magic artifact, it had to be at least a Golden Core Magic Treasure.

And taking advantage of that moment, he was already far from the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant, rushing towards the two elders.

At this time, despite numerous wounds all over its body, the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant showed no signs of weakness; on the contrary, it became even more aggressive.

It stubbornly pursued Liu Yiyuan without giving up.

Even the attacks of the others were ignored by it.

Seeing that the group’s attacks were useless, Liu Yiyuan cried out in a loud voice:

“Elders…”

“Save me!!!”

At that moment.

Elder Qin and Elder Xie had just killed one of the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants, significantly reducing the pressure on them.

Seeing Liu Yiyuan rushing over, Elder Qin directly controlled his Flying Sword, slashing at the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant behind Liu Yiyuan.

Elder Qin’s move was truly extraordinary.

“`

It was just one strike, and the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant had a huge hole torn open in its body, with blood spurting out suddenly.

And with this.

The Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant finally felt pain, and let out a sky-reaching shriek.

It successfully shifted the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant’s hatred as well.

Liu Yiyuan seized the opportunity to flee back.

He then heaved a sigh of relief.

After that, he walked angrily toward Lin Jing:

“When you threw that Five Thunder Talismans just now, were you trying to harm me?”

Lin Jing responded calmly:

“Fellow Daoist must be misunderstanding, I was merely trying to assist you in dealing with the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant behind you.”

“Instead, it was fellow Daoist who, despite knowing my lack of Cultivation, kept moving towards me, perhaps wishing for me to die at the jaws of the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant.”

With so many people present at the time, Lin Jing was not worried that Liu Yiyuan would strike at him.

Further more,

what he had said was indeed the truth.

The place where Lin Jing had been just before was at the edge of the passage, leaning against the rock wall, not standing in the middle of the passage with no way to avoid.

Liu Yiyuan could have easily avoided Lin Jing.

And in doing so,

any clear-eyed person could see that Liu Yiyuan was deliberately charging toward Lin Jing with the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant in tow.

At this moment,

Senior Han stepped forward as well.

He was about to say something

when one of the Qingyuan Sword Sect disciples quickly stopped him:

“Brother Han, let me…”

Then, the Qingyuan Sword Sect disciple began mediating between Lin Jing and Liu Yiyuan:

“Both of you, why not just let it go…”

“After all, no one was injured.”

“Given the urgency of the situation just now, the actions taken were out of necessity, I believe this fellow Daoist was simply too hasty, hence the reckless escape.”

“At a time like this, we should be joining forces.”

And the rest of the people quickly started to echo the sentiment in an attempt to pacify the situation.

And with that, the incident was defused.

After the incident had calmed down…

Everyone then turned their attention back to the two Elders.

They saw that the two Elders had already slain two Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants and only the last and largest one was struggling to hold on.

However,

it didn’t seem like the remaining Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant would last much longer.

Sure enough,

after a short while,

the two Elders cast spells at the same time, with a black streak piercing the body of the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ant.

The Devouring Spirit Ant instantly froze on the spot, motionless, then another streak of sword light flew out, decapitating the largest Devouring Spirit Ant’s head.

The Devouring Spirit Ant fell to the ground with a thump, dead beyond any doubt.

At this point,

the two Elders let out a sigh of relief.

After slaying the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants, the group didn’t dare to linger.

Those who were injured simply dealt with their wounds hastily.

Subsequently,

the two Elders led everyone to continue moving forward.

After less than half an hour and a few turns, they finally arrived at the end of the path.

There was no more road ahead, only a Formation blocking the way.

Elder Xie gestured for everyone to stop.

Afterward,

Elder Qin stepped forward, stood in front of the Formation, and then took out a Token from his Storage Bag.

He then placed the Token directly on the Formation.

Following that,

the Formation first lit up with white light, and after the light dissipated, the Formation gradually became transparent.

In the end, it vanished completely.

It was at this moment that Elders Qin and Xie walked in.

After they entered, Elder Xie didn’t forget to beckon everyone:

“The Teleportation Array is right here, come on in…”
