In my twilight years of cultivating, I became a Supreme Daoist of the Longevity Path Chapter 242

Chapter 242: 127: Refining the Heart in Actual Combat Leads to Mastery, Indifference and Neglect May Cost One’s Life (Seeking Monthly Tickets) _3 Chapter 242: 127: Refining the Heart in Actual Combat Leads to Mastery, Indifference and Neglect May Cost One’s Life (Seeking Monthly Tickets) _3 The Mirror of Heart-Piercing Illusion instantly radiated under Chen Dengming’s will, its light as bright as a green-white lightning accompanied by a loud thunder, tearing through the darkness, illuminating the surrounding environnt.

A dark shadow almost grazed past the light, emitting a sharp scream, and in a blink of an eye, it pounced in front of Chen Dengming.

Just as Chen Dengming was about to counterattack, the dark shadow suddenly split into two with a strange laugh, moved quickly within an extrely narrow space, and approached him almost imdiately, ready to dive into him.

“Get lost!!!”

Chen Dengming shouted angrily, his eyes blazing, the Divine Change Saber twisted into thousands of blinding whirls, like hundreds of serpents twisting around, enveloping his body.

The two shadows paused briefly, then quickly passed through the light of the saber, only to be devoured instantly by a subsequent burst of intense Divine Sense infused with thunderous power.

It appeared as though a cloud of darkness suddenly born underneath the glare of the saber, like an invisible big mouth, devoured the two shadows instantly.

Hundred Ghosts Yin Record Refining God Skill——the Mo Skill!

...

A scream echoed from the darkness not far away.

Chen Dengming let out a long roar.

Following his saber, he instantly rged with it, transforming into unparalleled speedy light, flashing past, charging towards the figure in the darkness.

He saw a gloomy figure with a large banner in hand.

Seeing Chen Dengming attacking, he was about to wave the banner, stirring up a terrifying ghostly aura, ready to strike back.

However, Chen Dengming lded his Divine Sense into the light of the saber, combined the righteous and masculine thunderous power within his Divine Sense with the Refining Spirit Skill, and thrust his saber directly!

The saber followed his heart, quick as the wind and precise as a drop of blood.

The striking technique is as swift as lightning, why bother walking ten steps to kill.

“Clang!——”

The saber hit the Soul Banner and, in an instant, the large banner shattered, countless soul ghosts scattered screaming, fluttering like swarms of black bats.

The cultivator on the opposite side, as if hit by lightning, suddenly retreated five steps, spat out a mouthful of blood, and tried to escape.

Unexpectedly, the long saber in Chen Dengming’s hand suddenly stretched and extended, exceeding eight ters, the glaringSabre light flickered, and instantly pierced through the cultivator’s forehead.

The surrounding darkness rapidly faded away.

“Is it already over?

It should be a mid-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator from the Soul Devouring Sect, indeed…

Well, it was sowhat botherso…

However, I’m just not very familiar with this kind of Soul Banner magic artifact.”

Chen Dengming frowned, looking at the changing environnt around him and put away the magic artifact.

The next mont, he saw Zhou Yunji, with a pale face, squatting and gasping on the opposite side.

He was taken aback and quickly walked over.

“Brother Zhou?

Are you okay?

You…

did you encounter a late-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator from the Soul Devouring Sect?”

Zhou Yunji was stunned, turned his head to look at Chen Dengming who seed totally unscathed, and managed a weak smile.

“Brother Chen, you must be joking.

How could I have encountered a late-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator?

This is the information about the enemy’s opponents recorded by Brother Guan and Brother Wang.

If they encountered a late-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator, could they have made it back?

I just encountered a powerful mid-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator, hiss… they’re really formidable!

I withstood the first onslaught, then suddenly saw a dark shadow rushing at .

I promptly dodged, but that dark shadow unexpectedly split into two.

It’s really treacherous…”

Chen Dengming looked puzzled.

Wasn’t that exactly what he had just encountered?

It turned out that the two of them had simulated the sa opponent at the sa ti.

But this Brother Zhou…

he didn’t even withstand the second round of attack…

“Hey?

Brother Chen, you actually passed so easily?

You look like as if it’s nothing, did you encounter an early-stage Foundation Establishnt opponent?

Is it from the Soul Devouring Sect or the Blood Slaughter Sect?”

Chen Dengming didn’t have the heart to tell the truth which would discourage Brother Zhou.

It wouldn’t be good to damage their harmonious relationship.

He laughed and said, “Yeah, I encountered an early-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator from the Blood Slaughter Sect…”

“That won’t work, Brother Chen.

We can deal with early-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivators.

You should go and try the opponent I encountered before, to gain more experience.”

“Well…”

“Go ahead, do it again.

Don’t hesitate at this stage.

When you confront the true battlefield, it could save your life.”

Chen Dengming felt helpless, but knew that what Zhou Yunji said was right.

He supposed it wouldn’t hurt to activate the formation again using the public spirit crystals.

However, for the second ti, he surprisingly confronted a strong enemy at a mid-stage Foundation Establishnt.

With no other choice, he was forced to put his adversary through another round of violence.

This ti, seeking to draw out more skills and life-saving cards from the cultivator, he intentionally slowed down his attacks, taking his ti to weaken his opponent.

In the end, though, he discovered that his enemy exhibited the sa pattern of attacks, even down to its escape.

No matter how exhausted it was, it would forcibly attack him, behaving like a dim-witted ga NPC.

Chen Dengming realized that this might be one of the inherent drawbacks of the Refining Heart Array’s simulated characters.

Probably, the simulation was based on the information supplied from the mories of Guan Le and others and was endowed with so intelligence, knowing when to run away, dodge, and so forth.

Yet, such responses were rigid and primarily based upon the two individuals’ mory and information.

“It seems like the real encounter with these cultivators from the Soul Devouring Sect may be even stronger.

There’s no guarantee that they don’t have so hidden cards that Brother Guan and the others hadn’t recognized.”

Chen Dengming remained neither arrogant nor impulsive, keeping a watchful eye.

He also felt that the second attempt wasn’t a waste, as it had allowed him to ascertain so more information.

After their experiences in the Heart Refining Cave, they bid goodbye to Guan Le and Wang Feixuan.

They appeared on the doorstep, preparing to leave.

…

The Spirit Boat of the Longevity Sect appeared outside the gate.

A few Foundation Establishing cultivators from the Longevity Sect were standing on the Spirit Boat, radiating elegance and magnificence, each one of them an outstanding individual.

Chen Dengming and Zhou Yunji greeted the cultivators from the Longevity Sect as they soared onto the Spirit Boat.

These cultivators were sowhat familiar with Zhou Yunji, as Changchun and Longevity were from one family.

Despite the higher status of the Longevity sect’s cultivators, they did not exhibit an air of superiority.

The fiction whereby upper sect cultivators would look down upon the lower ones seldom happens in reality.

Even if it occurs, people would not openly express it.

The congenial interactions made everything more pleasant.

The newly advanced Foundation Establishnt cultivator, Chen Dengming, wasn’t overlooked.

On the contrary, he was praised abundantly by several cultivators.

“We’ve heard rumors that Junior Brother Chen has unmatched combat prowess, and hardly anyone of our contemporaries can match him.

After your breakthrough in Mid-Stage Foundation Establishnt, I think you’ll undoubtedly make a na for yourself in the battle zone.”

“That’s right, I too see potential in Junior Brother Chen.

Oh wait, I should be addressing you as Elder Brother Chen.

I don’t think I’m your match now that we’re at the sa realm.”

Facing these complints, Chen Dengming humbly managed the situation, “You all are giving too much credit.

I’ve just established my foundation and my realm isn’t even settled yet.

I hope to learn from all of you, and I certainly shouldn’t be boasting.”

“And to my elder brother, you can just call Chen, or Little Chen.

It would be too presumptuous to accept the title of elder brother.”

“Junior Brother Chen, you are exceedingly modest!”

“Quite true.

Humility is acceptable, but such extre self-effacent might seem insincere!”

The cultivators from Longevity Sect jested.

They were pleased with Chen Dengming’s humility and considerate manners.

He made a good impression as they observed he wasn’t getting swell-headed amidst the flattery.

Only such people, who are genuinely humble, are not to be underestimated.

Through their conversations, the Spirit Boat broke through the sky, hurtling hundreds of miles into the clouds before speeding up toward the boundary of turtle, snake, and bee.

On the way, everyone chatted and laughed joyously, but no one knew who would still be laughing on their return journey…

…
