Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 138: Bronze Fragment


"Watch out, Junior Sister!"

"How dare you, brat!?"

"Attack together, kill him!"

Seeing Shen Wen'an committing murder again right in front of them, trying to kill their fellow sect member, the three shouted angrily!

One of them, the middle-aged man riding the ox-headed demon, fiercely slapped the knife-like cow horn in front of him!

Moo!

The ox-headed demon under him let out a loud bellow, and the two curved horns on its head suddenly flew out two beams of profound light towards the Dragon Soul Magical Sword!

Clang!

The two beams of profound light collided with the Dragon Soul Magical Sword in mid-air.

"That was close, luckily it made it..."

Before the middle-aged man riding the ox could finish the word "it," he witnessed a terrifying scene!

The golden flying sword, after colliding with the two beams of profound light, seemed completely unaffected, piercing through the light transformed by the horns, and ended the life of the brown-clothed woman!

Watching the golden sword fly out from the brown-clothed woman's head, the middle-aged man's pupils contracted as if suddenly realizing something, he shouted in panic!

"Junior Brother Zhang, Junior Brother Yu, be careful!"

"He is the demon prodigy from Qiyun Valley's Sword Dao!"

Shen Wen'an's name had already spread throughout the cultivation realm of Danzhou.

From being favored by Lingshan Sword Immortal at Qishan Market, who gifted him the Sword Cultivation Technique, to later being rumored in Qiyun Valley, where he, with a Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, quickly slew a fellow Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer elder brother.

The speculations about him and Lingshan Sword Immortal had evolved from several initial versions into a widely accepted version.

That is, Shen Wen'an possessed a sword dao talent that even Lingshan Sword Immortal recognized!

Following this speculation, some insightful people further analyzed that on the day at Qishan Market, when Shen Wen'an drew his sword in front of Lingshan Sword Immortal and only lost his weapon, it was because Lingshan Sword Immortal cherished talent.

The gift of the Sword Cultivation Technique was a gesture of goodwill and to make connections, indicating that Lingshan Sword Immortal saw potential in Shen Wen'an to become a Sword Immortal.

Though this speculation had not been corroborated by Lingshan Sword Immortal or Cyan Ruo Sword House, it led many to believe it as truth.

Now suddenly seeing such a terrifying sword cultivator emerge from Yangnao Land.

The middle-aged man instantly thought of Shen Wen'an!

After all, both Luoxia Mountain and Qiyun Valley were aware that Shen Wen'an came from the Yunzhong Shen Family, so his identity was no secret among the various Immortal Sects.

However, most people still did not know that Shen Wen'an had been expelled from Qiyun Valley, continuing to regard him as a disciple of Qiyun Valley.

The other two disciples from Hundred Beasts Mountain, upon hearing the middle-aged man's warning, shuddered and instinctively wanted to withdraw to assist him.

But by then, it was clearly too late!

When Shen Wen'an struck, he never intended to leave any survivors.

These people had used the Profound Feather Flying Eagle to spy on the Pan Mountain Python's nest for several days, and he could not be sure if the secret of the Little Pine Tree had been exposed.

Right now, the only thing to do is to silence them all.

For now, all the Immortal Sects were adhering to the principle of "not deploying cultivators in the Fetal Breathing Realm."

That does not mean that the immortals of the sects are all gentlemen.

Rather, each one cares very much about their own reputation.

Since each sect was sending juniors below the Fetal Breathing Realm into Yangnao Land to vie for opportunities, if one were to send a Fetal Breathing Realm strongman to deal with a group of juniors, it wouldn't only earn a reputation of "bullying the weak with strength," but it would also be a tacit admission that the juniors of this generation are inferior to others.

Currently, Shen Wen'an had reached the Qi Cultivation Perfection Realm. In terms of strength alone, as a sword cultivator, he was stronger than the candidates for Immortal Sect Leaders like Li Heshan and Wei Qiuling.

At his back, the Dragon-Slaying Magical Sword quietly hovered above, exuding a chillingly sharp aura!

His eyes flashed with a cyan light, and one after another, the Supreme Profound Sword Qi surfaced from his body, slowly forming nine cyan long swords on either side of the Dragon-Slaying Magical Sword, aligning in a row!

Seeing the two demon beasts charging forward in front of him.

Shen Wen'an's heart spirit shifted slightly, and immediately, two long swords transformed from the Supreme Profound Sword Qi at his back flew out, as fast as lightning!

Then, another two cyan long swords flew out, targeting the owners of the demon beasts, those two disciples from Hundred Beasts Mountain!

As for the middle-aged man riding the ox, he couldn't escape death himself at this point.

The golden Dragon Soul Magical Sword drew a half-circle in the air and was now heading straight back towards him!

In an instant, all three felt a thick aura of death!

From the back of the old ox, the middle-aged man, seeing the Dragon Soul Magical Sword flying rapidly towards him and knowing it was hard to block, quickly took out a strange copper plate exuding verdigris from his bosom, biting his tongue tip, and spitting a mouthful of essence blood on the copper plate!

Buzz!

The copper plate absorbed his essence blood, and under the stimulation of his spiritual power, it trembled immensely.

With the copper plate's trembling, a faint, melodious bell sound echoed around.

Affected by that bell sound, the Dragon Soul Magical Sword seemed to be trapped in some void quagmire, its speed drastically reduced, wobbling as if drunk.

The middle-aged man did not relax his vigilance, taking advantage of the pause caused to the Soul-Slaying Magical Sword, he immediately took out a porcelain bottle and a bag from his back!

"Han Mountain!"

With a shout, he threw the porcelain bottle into the mouth of the old ox beneath him while also tossing the bag towards Shen Wen'an.

Gazing at the incoming bag, Shen Wen'an's eyebrows slightly frowned.

"The same trick won't hurt me again?"

He had already witnessed this scene years ago during his visit to the Dragon Tamer's relics.

This time, he wouldn't be caught off guard again.

The moment the long swords transformed from the Supreme Profound Sword Qi flew out, a densely packed protective light shield quickly rose around his body.

The bag was sliced open, releasing a large amount of black mist into the air.

Shen Wen'an's figure flashed, escaping the coverage of the black mist, holding the scarlet Dragon-Slaying Magical Sword in his hand without anyone knowing when he had grasped it.

Swoosh!

The middle-aged man's arm holding the copper plate was directly severed by the sword aura!

In an instant, the strange bell sound faded, the Dragon Soul Magical Sword, free from its influence, suddenly accelerated, directly piercing through the back of his head!

Moo!

```

At the moment the middle-aged man was killed, a terrifying evil aura suddenly erupted from the ox-headed demon beneath him!

The originally Qi Cultivation Eighth or Ninth Layer aura suddenly soared to a level comparable to the Qi Cultivation Perfection Realm!

Its eyes were bloodshot, and it was extremely furious!

The scarlet eyes fixated on Shen Wen'an, and the raging ox-headed demon immediately launched a savage charge!

Shen Wen'an frowned, leapt aside, and dodged the attack!

The ox-headed demon missed its target, crashing into several giant trees behind, smashing them into a rain of wood chips!

"Go!"

Having dodged the attack, Shen Wen'an immediately pointed, and several long swords formed by the Supreme Profound Sword Qi behind him shot through the wood chips towards the ox-headed demon!

However, the Supreme Profound Sword Qi, capable of instantly killing cultivators of the same level, only sparked against the ox-headed demon's back, barely causing any harm.

What a tough scale armor!

While Shen Wen'an frowned, he charged forward with the Dragon-Slaying Magical Sword in hand.

The ox-headed demon beast in front seemed to have completely lost its sanity, with only the thought of killing Shen Wen'an in its mind.

The massive body turned nimbly and charged again!

Halfway there, the two horns on top of its head, resembling sharp curved sabers, suddenly flashed with a ghostly light!

In an instant, two Profound Light Blades, edged with red glows, swiftly slashed towards Shen Wen'an.

Clang!

Clang!

Wielding the Dragon-Slaying Magical Sword, Shen Wen'an easily knocked the Profound Light Blades aside and suddenly accelerated!

The sound of a sword humming rang out!

The three-foot-long sword directly pierced into the ox-headed demon beast's skull!

The massive inertia pushed Shen Wen'an back several steps, dispelling the force.

As he withdrew the sword, the corpse of the ox-headed demon beast collapsed heavily to the ground.

He flicked the blood off the sword, carefully inspecting the scene and the demon beasts to confirm there were no survivors, then bent down to pick up the severed arm of the middle-aged man and dug out a palm-sized bronze fragment from his hand.

The strange sound released when the middle-aged man activated this bronze fragment earlier had somehow affected his control of the Soul-Slaying Magical Sword, which was quite peculiar.

Examining the ancient bronze fragment repeatedly, he could faintly sense a weak energy inside and saw some bizarre patterns etched on it, though he couldn't discern what part of what object it was.

Nevertheless, even a fragment could have such an effect, so the quality of this magical artifact must be extremely high when complete.

Shen Wen'an put away the bronze fragment and thoroughly searched the others' belongings, intending to take them back to his father.

Having done all this, his gaze turned to the corpses of the four demon beasts at the scene.

Of these four demon beasts, the weakest was equivalent to the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, while the strongest ox-headed demon beast had strength close to the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.

If taken back to be refined for his eldest brother's body, the effect would undoubtedly be excellent.

But...

Shen Wen'an frowned tightly.

The items were indeed valuable, but these four demon beast corpses were too large and belonged to others; if seen during transport and the news reached Hundred Beasts Mountain, it would be a big problem.

Shen Wen'an paused for a moment, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"I almost forgot about this."

He took a delicate pouch from his waist, and with a thought, the giant wolf's corpse over two zhang in length disappeared instantly.

While the storage bag couldn't store living things, these were demon beast corpses, so they could naturally be stored.

After successively storing the Profound Feather Flying Eagle and another demon beast resembling a fierce tiger with a unicorn horn, Shen Wen'an, trying to store the ox-headed demon beast's corpse, realized the storage bag was full, unable to fit.

Seeing this, he had to first handle the four human corpses properly, take out the ox-headed demon beast's Demon Essence Pill, and plan to return later to retrieve the ox-headed demon beast's corpse.

Having completed everything, Shen Wen'an left the place on his sword.

Returning to Black Water Pond Manor, Shen Wen'an handed the three demon beast corpses to his elder brother Shen Wenxing, took a brief moment to recover some spiritual energy, and immediately hurried back.

But when he returned to the original spot, he found the ox-headed demon beast's corpse was already gone!

Only half of an ox skull, some remnants of scale hide, and a pair of horns were left on the ground.

Shen Wen'an frowned.

In his round-trip, even including the time for meditation, only a bit over an hour had passed.

In just an hour, a demon beast corpse weighing several thousand catties had been secretly consumed completely?

Expanding his Divine Sense slowly, he was determined to find out what had secretly devoured his spoils.

Unfortunately, even at the limit of his Divine Sense, he found nothing.

The entity that had eaten the ox-headed demon beast's flesh seemed to have left far away.

Unable to find anything, Shen Wen'an, with a backhand swing of the Dragon-Slaying Magical Sword, carved a large pit, buried the remaining bones of the ox-headed demon beast inside, and covered it up.

He also put the pair of cow horns and the tough scale hide from the ox-headed demon beast's back into his storage bag and turned to leave.

By the time he returned to the Pan Mountain Python Nest, the sky was beginning to brighten, and Zhao Shuan, along with the villagers, were gradually getting up.

"Wen'an, last night I heard a cow mooing in a daze." Zhao Shuan said with a smile as he saw Shen Wen'an approaching from afar.

Shen Wen'an nodded and said, "There was an ox demon; I drove it away."

"Uncle Zhao, we need to speed things up here."

With these villagers building the houses, the array formation couldn't be activated.

Without the protection of the array, the little pine tree would be easily exposed.

More importantly, the little pine tree had been shielded by rocks for some time, unable to absorb the essence of the moonlight.

He was also worried about unexpected troubles.

Zhao Shuan nodded after a moment of surprise and said, "Alright, I'll gather some more people!"

Over the years, working for the Shen Family, Zhao Shuan had learned a simple truth.

When it comes to immortal family matters, the less you know, the better.

Follow orders, do your job, and don't cause trouble for your daughter.
