Cultivating To Immortality

"Aren’t you after the Four Symbols Formation? Then let me show you its power." Xiao Yue roared, her eyes wide with a terrifying ferocity.

Xiao Yue suddenly took out several spirit stones from her Storage Pouch, which floated around her.

As she continuously drew spiritual energy from the spirit stones, the power of the entire Four Symbols Formation began to gradually increase.

The already formidable Four Symbols Formation Spirit, empowered by the spirit stones, became even more violent, launching increasingly fierce attacks against Fang Hong’s talisman barrier.

"Your formation is indeed somewhat powerful, but it’s a pity you encountered me." Fang Hong’s expression remained calm and composed.

After speaking, Fang Hong no longer held back, unhesitatingly conjuring a Thunder Thorn Talisman and fully activating it.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

As soon as the Thunder Thorn Talisman appeared, powerful spiritual energy fluctuations rapidly spread outwards from its center.

Seeing this, Xiao Yue’s heart tightened, and a strong sense of fear surged within her.

She instinctively wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.

Zzz!

A purple lightning bolt shot out from the Thunder Thorn Talisman, instantly streaking across the stone house.

The lightning bolt was incredibly fast, heading straight for the formation barrier, instantly piercing through the seemingly solid formation barrier.

Immediately after, the lightning bolt did not pause, directly striking the Formation Disk in front of Xiao Yue.

Crack.

Under the powerful lightning strike, the Formation Disk couldn’t withstand even a moment, letting out a crisp cracking sound before completely shattering.

The powerful lightning strike, following the shattered Formation Disk, directly hit Xiao Yue’s chest.

Xiao Yue only felt a sharp pain in her chest, and a huge force sent her flying backward, even smashing through the thick stone house wall.

With a loud "boom," stone fragments flew everywhere, and Xiao Yue was sent flying out of the house.

Her chest was instantly stained red with blood; if not for the formation and Formation Disk helping her block part of the attack, she would have long been pierced through by the lightning strike, dead beyond saving.

Fang Hong’s eyes turned cold, and he instantly flashed to Xiao Yue’s side.

He quickly pulled out several Intermediate Spirit-Stabilizing talismans from his Storage Pouch and stuck them onto Xiao Yue.

As soon as the Spirit-Stabilizing talismans touched Xiao Yue’s body, they emitted a golden light, fixing her in place and rendering her unable to move.

Afterward, Fang Hong took out a Hemostasis talisman and placed it on her chest, temporarily stopping the continuously gushing blood to prevent her from dying of excessive blood loss.

Having done all this, Fang Hong grabbed Xiao Yue by her hair and dragged her up from the ground.

Xiao Yue let out a painful "woo woo" sound, but under the effect of the Spirit-Stabilizing talismans, she was completely unable to resist.

Fang Hong dragged her like this, step by step, into the house.

Fortunately, the mother and daughter’s stone house was located in a secluded area in the northwest of the city, with no other residents nearby.

This battle did not alarm too many people; otherwise, Fang Hong’s current actions would certainly cause unnecessary trouble.

Fang Hong dragged Xiao Yue to the corner, tossed her aside, and looked at her indifferently.

Xiao Yue was thrown into the corner by Fang Hong, and seeing his murderous expression, her face turned terrified; this time, she had truly kicked an iron plate.

But when her gaze inadvertently swept over her daughter’s corpse lying there, her already fear-filled eyes instantly became frantic.

She let out a mournful roar.

"Even if I die, I won’t hand over the method for setting up the Four Symbols Formation to you."

"Hmph. Can’t I search for it myself?" Fang Hong snorted, unceremoniously snatching the Storage Pouch from Xiao Yue’s waist.

He extended his Divine Sense into it and began to examine it carefully.

After a thorough examination, Fang Hong’s brows furrowed slightly; the Storage Pouch only contained some spirit stones and other miscellaneous items, scattered about, and not the formation setup method he was looking for.

"Heh heh heh. Kill me, and you’ll never find the formation setup method." Xiao Yue said with a gloomy face, a triumphant sneer curling at the corner of her lips.

Fang Hong ignored her provocation and walked directly to Xiao Xue’s corpse, beginning to examine Xiao Xue’s Storage Pouch.

However, the result still disappointed him; Xiao Xue’s Storage Pouch also contained no formation setup method.

Next, Fang Hong meticulously searched both the upper and lower floors of the entire stone house, but he still couldn’t find the formation setup method.

Fang Hong guessed that the Xiao Family mother and daughter had probably hidden it somewhere, very secretly.

"Don’t dream about it, you won’t find it." Xiao Yue laughed triumphantly.

"Don’t think that just because it’s hidden, I can’t find it. It seems I can only try that method." Fang Hong’s eyes narrowed slightly, suddenly remembering a method.

A few months ago, he killed the Black-Clothed Man and obtained the "Seven Ghost Soul Reading Technique," an evil spell capable of refining souls and reading memories.

Fang Hong had not used it until now and didn’t know how effective this spell truly was.

But given the current situation, it seemed that to obtain the formation setup method, he could only try this evil spell.

"You, what do you want to do?" Xiao Yue’s heart suddenly filled with a strong sense of unease when she saw Fang Hong’s confident expression.

Fang Hong didn’t respond to her, he pulled her up from the ground and then dragged her to the center of the stone house, making her sit cross-legged on the ground.

Xiao Yue’s face was filled with terror, and she stared fixedly at Fang Hong.

Fang Hong’s actions made her feel extremely panicked, and her heart became increasingly flustered.

"There is a spell called the Seven Ghost Soul Reading Technique, which can refine souls and read memories. Don’t think that just because you’ve hidden the formation setup method, I can’t find it." Fang Hong also sat cross-legged opposite Xiao Yue, saying coldly.

"Seven, Seven Ghost Soul Reading Technique. You actually know how to use such an evil art."

"You Devil, you’ll met your fated death sooner or later." Xiao Yue completely panicked, shouting at Fang Hong in terror.

"I forgot to tell you, anyone whose soul is read will surely die. You should go accompany your daughter now." Fang Hong said indifferently.

He told Xiao Yue about this spell precisely to make her afraid, because the records of the Seven Ghost Soul Reading Technique mentioned that the more fearful the person whose soul is read, the better the soul-reading effect.

As expected, Xiao Yue became even more frightened after hearing this, and her body trembled continuously under the pressure of death.

Seeing that the deterrent effect was sufficient, Fang Hong took out a bundle of bamboo tubes from his Storage Pouch and slowly unfolded them.

Inside the bamboo tubes were seven silver needles, each with a needlepoint shaped like a hideous skull, looking sinister and terrifying.

These were also tools he had found in the Black-Clothed Man’s Storage Pouch, specifically used for casting the Seven Ghost Soul Reading Technique.

"No, don’t kill me. I’ll tell you where the formation setup method is. That wretched girl is dead, so she’s dead. Please spare my life, I’ll do anything."

Perhaps due to extreme fear, Xiao Yue actually began to beg for mercy.

Fang Hong was greatly surprised by these words.

"Didn’t you just say you wanted to avenge your daughter? Why are you afraid now?"
