Eternal Life from the Golden Needle Technique

The three who attacked Dawan Village were, of course, the external Tribulation Cultivators hired by the Family Protection Mutual Aid Alliance to carry out an assassination.

According to their original plan, the young man named Shen Changchuan was a Noble Family Descendant and therefore most likely a coward who feared death.

With a Cultivation Realm of only the Qi Introduction Fourth or Fifth Layer, faced with an attack from three strong enemies at the Qi Introduction Seventh Layer, there was no way he would be stupid enough to confront them head-on.

They figured that as soon as he sensed their auras, he would, nine times out of ten, take advantage of the chaos to flee through a secret passage, leaving them with nothing.

After all, the three brothers weren’t local powers. They were unfamiliar with the surrounding terrain, and there might even be a Qi Introduction Seventh Layer guard in the village who could interfere with their pursuit.

The moment he escaped,

they could basically declare their mission a failure.

Therefore, if they just charged in from outside the village, the mission would most likely fail.

Thus, after considering the various factors,

the three brothers discussed it and unanimously decided to sneak into the village,

trying not to cause any disturbance.

With the strength of three Qi Introduction Seventh Layer Cultivators, once they got close to the young man named Shen Changchuan, they would leave him no room to run and cut off all his escape routes.

It was for this very reason that,

even though they had gathered information on Dawan Village and confirmed that the three of them possessed overwhelming strength against such a small settlement,

the three of them still proceeded with extreme caution,

infiltrating the village in secret.

But what they had completely failed to anticipate was that,

although Dawan Village’s forces were weak,

it had a cautious and tight-knit defensive system in place.

As a result, even though they had been extremely careful and used their overwhelming power to kill without making the slightest sound, they still triggered an alarm.

This ultimately caused the entire village to erupt into a commotion.

They had originally thought,

that this mission might be a failure.

But then, their target suddenly appeared right before their eyes.

What a twist of fate!

This not only filled the man’s heart with joy but also gave rise to a trace of contempt.

It was said that some Noble Family Descendants valued their reputation more than their own lives.

It seemed,

that they were very lucky to have encountered one of that kind!

"Enough with the nonsense. If you want to fight, then fight!"

Shen Changchuan’s expression was grim. He had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with the enemy,

not even entertaining the thought of asking their identities.

He formed a sword sign with his fingers, and with a raise of his hand, streaks of sword light shot out.

Sword Light Technique: Twelvefold!

The Perfection Level Sword Light Technique was unleashed almost as soon as the thought formed in Shen Changchuan’s mind.

In the span of a single breath,

he had activated and executed it twelve times!

After reaching the Qi Introduction Sixth Layer Peak, the amount and quality of Shen Changchuan’s Magical Power had improved, and his meridians and Dantian had also been further widened and strengthened!

This allowed him to withstand a much greater output of power.

And this,

was what increased the number of times Shen Changchuan could cast a Basic Magic in a single breath from six or seven to twelve!

The Sword Shadows created by twelve Perfection Level Sword Light Techniques were like a fierce, driving storm, slashing mercilessly toward their target!

Amidst the SHHIIING sounds of tearing air,

the atmosphere was ripped apart, layer by layer, like cloth.

They erupted in succession,

forming a dense, impenetrable rain of swords that completely enveloped the figure and the space several yards around him!

And yet,

each and every streak possessed the terrifying power to slice through iron like mud and shatter steel!

Such a terrifying chain of attacks—

if it were an ordinary Qi Introduction Sixth Layer Cultivator,

they would likely be killed by this relentless bombardment of sword light with the slightest misstep!

’I have to end this fight as quickly as possible!’

The thought flashed through Shen Changchuan’s mind.

The auras erupting from the attacking enemies numbered three in total, all at the Seventh Layer Realm of Qi Introduction.

The other two had entered the eastern part of the village, where a battle had broken out.

Shen Changchuan could sense that someone was holding them back!

Si Houqing had made his move!

Shen Changchuan had not expected,

that this Shopkeeper from the Sanhe Chamber of Commerce would also have a Cultivation at the Qi Introduction Seventh Layer!

No wonder he had dared to send his original guards back to Qing City to strengthen the escort for the merchant caravan, preventing others from taking advantage of them in the current chaotic situation.

It turned out he had more than enough ability to protect himself!

But that was the extent of it.

Earlier, when Shen Changchuan had told Han Jincheng to fall back, he had spared a glance in that direction.

Even though Si Houqing was also at the Qi Introduction Seventh Layer,

facing an attack from two enemies, he could only barely hold on by relying on the Talismans, Magical Artifacts, and other tricks in his possession.

If this dragged on for some time,

his fate would likely be grim!

It was for this very reason that,

Shen Changchuan hadn’t wasted a single word on the enemy, not even asking about their origins, and had attacked immediately!

These people had attacked under the cover of night,

and they had already killed many of the villagers.

They were clearly enemies.

And enemies who were here to kill him, at that.

There was absolutely no need for pointless talk!

’If I want to find out where they’re from, I’ll have to take care of the one in front of me first,’

’then go help Shopkeeper Si stabilize his position.’

’Only then can I think about forcing their origins out of them!’

Numerous thoughts,

flashed through his mind in a split second.

After unleashing the twelvefold Sword Light Technique, Shen Changchuan didn’t pause for a moment.

His Magical Power circulated within him,

and a faint, clear light emanated from his body.

In the span of a breath,

the Light Body Technique was cast upon him, making him as light as a goose feather in that instant.

But that wasn’t all.

Immediately after,

the Perfection Swift Shadow Technique was also cast with a mere thought.

Shen Changchuan transformed into a gray afterimage, leaping high into the air, traversing dozens of feet through the sky to appear above his enemy.

Giant Sword Technique: Triple!

Shen Changchuan formed a technique seal, and all the Magical Power in his body began to circulate wildly.

In an instant,

high above, the air in an area several yards wide surged. The airflow spun rapidly, and the spiritual light of Magical Power shimmered brightly as three giant swords, each over ten meters long and formed entirely of condensed Magical Power, appeared in the air before Shen Changchuan!

Without the slightest hesitation,

Shen Changchuan formed a technique seal with his fingers and pointed toward the figure below.

His entire body moved with the wind,

and he brought the three giant swords down—one after another—with the unstoppable momentum of a falling meteor, smashing toward the enemy!

A sharp screech echoed through the air.

The air was churned into a thick paste, stirring up a furious gale!

And Shen Changchuan’s figure, as agile as a divine dragon and as swift as thunder, was guided by his aura. The terrifying might of his attack even surpassed that of a Qi Introduction Seventh Layer!

All of this took a long time to describe,

but in reality, from the moment Shen Changchuan unleashed the twelvefold Sword Light Technique to him soaring into the sky and bringing down the Triple Giant Sword Skill from above, everything happened in the blink of an eye!

At this moment,

the Daoist figure waved his palm, his Magical Power forming a vortex of fire between his hands.

He had only just managed to block the streaks of sword light,

but the continuous bombardment and explosions of the sword light,

sent tremors through his body,

and he nearly lost his footing!
