Chapter 223 - 153: You Cannot Kill Me, I Am the Saint Heir of the White Bone Sect
The brother and sister were guards specially trained by the White Bone Sect.
The young man in the courtyard behind them was the person they were tasked to protect—Xiang Qirui.
CLANG!
The Bone Spear collided with the Flying Sword, but it only managed to block the first two streaks of light before being sent flying by the third.
THUD! THUD! BOOM!
The earthen wall that had just risen likewise only blocked two streaks of light before a large hole was blasted through it.
The final two falling star-like attacks smashed directly onto the Bone Shield below.
Although the Bone Shield didn’t shatter, thanks to the excellent defensive capabilities of a Top Grade Magical Artifact, the ground beneath Xiang Qirui’s feet could not withstand such a massive impact.
He and his shield were driven straight into the ruins below.
"Young Master!"
The Lv Brother and Sister cried out in alarm. Lv Huiqing, forgetting about Xiao Chen, flashed into the courtyard and pulled Xiang Qirui up.
Lv Changfeng, on the other hand, recalled his Bone Spear and shouted, "Piercing Clouds and Breaking Wind!"
The Bone Spear in his hand instantly split in two, transforming into two streaks of white light that shot straight for Xiao Chen’s eyes.
At the same time, with a flick of his left wrist, he produced a Talisman. "Profound Nether Bone Spike!"
Spiritual Power immediately surged beneath Xiao Chen’s feet, and a full eighteen bone spikes erupted from the ground.
Each spike was a full three inches thick, its tip glinting with a cold light.

CLANG! CRUNCH! 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
The Muddy Water Round Shield intercepted the attack, blocking the Bone Spear.
However, the Bone Spear immediately transformed into two pythons, which opened their great maws and clamped down firmly on the Muddy Water Round Shield.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen reacted quickly and chose not to throw the brocade handkerchief in his hand.
Instead, he shot into the air, dodging the bone spikes erupting from the ground.
"Huiqing!"
Lv Changfeng shouted instantly.
Lv Huiqing immediately understood. She pulled at her waist, and a seemingly ordinary hemp rope flared with brilliant light. It was clearly an Immortal Binding Rope.
She threw the Immortal Binding Rope out and shouted, "Go!"
The rope instantly came to life, moving like a slippery loach as it darted to Xiao Chen’s side.
One end looped around his feet, snaking up his calves to bind his legs.
The other end shot out from under his armpit, pulling down along his arms to restrain them.
It looked loose at first glance, but in reality, it concealed a hidden mechanism.
The two ends of the rope met at his waist and tied themselves into a knot.
Instantly, all sorts of profound runes emerged from the rope, attempting to completely seal away Xiao Chen’s Magical Power.
’I have to say, even though they’re all Demon Cultivators, the gap between the Lv Clan siblings and the three cannon fodders from before is pretty substantial.’
’Even if I hadn’t been the one to fight them, any other powerful, late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator could have easily dealt with such watered-down opponents.’
’But the teamwork displayed by the Lv Brother and Sister was truly beyond my expectations.’
’I didn’t expect the bone spikes to be just a feint. The real trump card was this Immortal Binding Rope.’
’Any other late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator would have surely been defeated if they had been caught by this special Magical Artifact’s trap.’
"Lv Changfeng, no need to take him alive. Just kill him."
Seeing the Lv Brother and Sister hesitate, Xiang Qirui gave a direct order, "This location has been exposed."
"Escort me away first. We can investigate the reasons later."
Lv Changfeng had wanted to interrogate their captive. He frowned at the command but didn’t voice any objection.
However, just as he was taking out another Flying Sword, he was astonished to see Xiao Chen simply reach out and untie the knot of the Immortal Binding Rope.
Seeing Lv Changfeng stunned, Lv Huiqing followed his gaze and looked up.
On the Immortal Binding Rope, one profound rune after another desperately pulsed with a snow-white light, so bright it seemed tangible.
However, no matter how hard these runes worked, it was all to no avail.
Xiao Chen untied the Immortal Binding Rope with utter ease, his movements as relaxed as if he were handling his own Magical Artifact.
Lv Huiqing’s mind went blank. She simply could not comprehend what was happening.
’The Immortal Binding Rope is a Top Grade Magical Artifact designed specifically to restrain Cultivators! Once you’re caught, you immediately lose all your Magical Power, making it impossible to use any of your techniques, no matter how many you have!’
’But what had she just witnessed?’
’Someone was completely unaffected by the Immortal Binding Rope?’
For a moment, Lv Huiqing felt as if she were dreaming.
"Kill him! Kill him now!"
Xiang Qirui, realizing something was wrong, hurriedly urged them on, but it was too late.
With a great wave of his hand, Xiao Chen scattered a full twenty-seven blossoms of Flame Radiance from his sleeve.
Then, he pressed his hand down and commanded, "Fall!"
The twenty-seven blossoms of Flame Radiance immediately drifted down toward the three people below, like twenty-seven dandelion seeds.
As the fiery red Flame Radiance drifted down, the temperature for a hundred zhang in every direction began to rise sharply.
"This is bad!"
Feeling the abnormally turbulent Fire Spirit Power in the air, Lv Changfeng’s expression changed drastically. "There’s something wrong with this Cloud Mist! Defend together!"
He hurriedly activated the Jade Pendant at his waist, erecting a brilliant golden barrier of light.
He then hastily pulled two Defense Talismans from his Storage Bag and activated them, instantly forming two Spirit Shields that hovered before him.
Lv Huiqing didn’t dare to be idle, either. She summoned another earthen wall while simultaneously taking out and unfolding a Plum Blossom Handkerchief, spreading it over the three of them.
BOOM! BOOM!...
A continuous series of explosions rang out. Although the area of effect wasn’t as large as a Li Huo Thunder, the force of the blasts was far more intense.
At the very center of the raging inferno, a vortex of purple flame began to rise.
Xiao Chen watched this scene and nodded in satisfaction.
Ever since completing the Refinement of the Heaven-Burning Fiend and obtaining the Yang Fire Seal, this was his first time using Fire Magic against an enemy.
