Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal
Chapter 510 - 378: The Celestial Nether Sword Sect’s Pursuit, Battle of Mahayana Stage Powerhouses (Part 2)
Seeing this, Hou Shaojie finally let go of Lin Chang’sheng.
"Long Yang, you bastard, how dare a loser talk back? You think you’re some kind of genius from the Immortal Martial Hall? More like a top-class freak from the Hall of Trash!"
Hou Shaojie cursed impatiently.
Even though he might not beat Liu Qi, Liu Qi definitely ranked lower than Lin Chang’sheng.
"You—"
"Enough, back to the Sect!"
The Elder from Immortal Martial Hall cut him off in annoyance, and left straight away.
What’s the point of arguing here?
Lin Chang’sheng noticed that Yang Huaizhen had almost fully recovered today and could move on his own, showing just how potent the Immortal Martial Hall’s elixirs were.
"Brother Lin, farewell! May fate see us meet again!"
Yang Huaizhen cupped his hands, showing he really respected Lin Chang’sheng.
"Take care, Brother Yang!"
Lin Chang’sheng replied in turn.
The Elder from Immortal Martial Hall waved and summoned a flying palanquin, and their group rode away in style.
Once the Immortal Martial Hall folks had gone, everyone from Immortal Palace gathered together, including Gu Shan.
Though Lin Chang’sheng had joined Immortal Palace, since he hadn’t officially entered the Sect, Gu Shan was still responsible for his safety.
Just in case he died before growing into his potential.
If that happened, he’d miss the opportunities inside the Immortal Cave Mansion.
Then Elder Liu from Immortal Palace waved his hand and summoned a flying boat, and everyone jumped aboard.
The flying boat sped off toward Immortal Palace.
With nothing else to do on the boat, Lin Chang’sheng began running the Celestial Star Refining God Technique to temper his divine sense.
But as soon as the flying boat had only traveled three thousand miles, Lin Chang’sheng felt something was off.
A massive group was rushing toward their flying boat.
"Are those guys from Celestial Nether Sword Sect?"
Lin Chang’sheng thought to himself, noticing everyone was riding huge flying swords, their blades enormous.
"Elder Liu, there’s someone—"
"I know!"
Lin Chang’sheng had just started to speak.
But Elder Liu signaled him to hush, instead channeling Immortal Technique to make the flying boat speed up even more. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Unfortunately, in just a short while, the pursuers caught up and surrounded them.
"I want to see which madmen have the guts to block an Immortal Palace flying boat!"
Elder Liu roared angrily; don’t let his age fool you, his temper was fiery.
If anyone dared mess with Immortal Palace, he’d make sure they never came back.
"Kid, you’re quite the hot commodity! Looks like some people really don’t want you to leave!"
Gu Shan grinned, showing no hint of battle nerves at all.
Clearly, Gu Shan had confidence in his own strength.
"Let’s see if they can even keep me here!"
Lin Chang’sheng scoffed.
A Celestial Nether Sword Sect crew out for his head, hell-bent on killing him and not backing down until they did.
Lin Chang’sheng extended his divine sense and found there were at least a thousand people in the group.
Among them, three Mahayana Stage titans were overseeing things, along with more than ten Integration Stage cultivators, over two hundred Void Refining Stage cultivators, and the rest at Divinity Transformation Stage.
This power was nothing to sneeze at.
They could stomp out a third-rate Sect with ease.
As for Lin Chang’sheng’s side, counting just Gu Shan and Elder Liu Feng, they only had two Mahayana Stage powerhouses. The rest were all disciples with Void Refining cultivation.
Matching this force would be tough.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
In an instant, three black-robed figures landed atop their flying boat.
The rest of the black-clad squad kept pace, following in flight.
"The Celestial Nether Sword Sect, top ten in the Immortal Realm, stooping to plain robbery now?"
Elder Liu Feng fired back sarcastically.
The Celestial Nether Sword Sect’s mark was obvious: giant swords and black robes.
As soon as they boarded, Elder Liu Feng knew exactly who they were dealing with.
"This has nothing to do with Immortal Palace. We’re only after Lin Chang’sheng’s life!"
A ghoul-masked man stepped forward, a giant sword wrapped in iron chains trailing behind him.
This was none other than the Sixth Elder of Celestial Nether Sword Sect, Luo Shang.
Thanks to the Celestial Pride List being nearby, plenty of Celestial Nether Sword Sect folks had gathered near Refining God Sect, so they could muster this crowd in a single night.
"Lin Chang’sheng’s joined our Immortal Palace. How does this not concern us? I’d advise you to drop it now, unless you want to lose your spot as one of the Ten Great Sects!"
Elder Liu Feng raged righteously. The Celestial Nether Sword Sect wasn’t to be trifled with, but going toe to toe with Immortal Palace was a whole other game.
It’s just that Immortal Palace didn’t want the trouble of wiping them out.
"Hahaha—"
No sooner had Liu Feng finished, the other two Mahayana Stage powerhouses from Celestial Nether Sword Sect burst out laughing, clearly not taking Immortal Palace seriously.
"Don’t go acting bigger than you really are! Doesn’t Immortal Palace know its own limits?"
"Since you said that, I’ll just come out and say it—your Palace has been number three in the Immortal Realm long enough. Maybe it’s time for a change?"
Behind Luo Shang, a man with arms thicker than most folks’ thighs strode forward, blunt and to the point.
Celestial Nether Sword Sect had long wanted more than Top Ten. If Immortal Palace was this arrogant, they’d just wipe them out.
"Even if someone’s moving up, it sure as hell won’t be you!"
Liu Feng shot back disdainfully.
"Yeah, what kind of losers do you people have in Celestial Nether Sword Sect, anyway? Don’t you know?"
Gu Shan wasn’t about to back down either.
His Gu Family might not rank top in the Immortal Realm, but in Futian Province, they were among the best.
Celestial Nether Sword Sect’s goons just made Gu Shan sneer.
"So you’re refusing to hand over Lin Chang’sheng? Ready to fight us for him?"
Luo Shang asked earnestly.
He actually wished Immortal Palace and Gu Shan would just hand over Lin Chang’sheng, avoiding a major brawl.
But they clearly had no intention of giving him up, so a battle was unavoidable.
"Not handing over? Even better! I’ve been dying for a fight, my fists are itching!"
Gu Shan was already cracking his knuckles, his oversize hands impossible to miss.
Seeing things heating up, Lin Chang’sheng wanted nothing to do with a Mahayana Stage brawl.
Otherwise, just one stray shockwave could tear him to pieces.
Luo Shang, seeing no way out, stopped talking and struck, sending a palm attack roaring at Lin Chang’sheng.
If Lin Chang’sheng died here, the matter would be settled perfectly.
Even if Liu Feng felt bitter, he wouldn’t risk the Sect for a dead man against Celestial Nether Sword Sect.
"Go!"
Liu Feng shouted, blasting out a palm attack of his own.
Boom—
A thunderous bang shook everything, the impact sending Lin Chang’sheng, Hou Shaojie, Zhao Shuang’Er and the rest flying.
Seeing Luo Shang make his move, the other two Celestial Nether Sword Sect elders stopped waiting and unleashed their killing blows, attacking Lin Chang’sheng and Gu Shan directly.
Gu Shan’s strength was incredible. Using the Ancient Long Fist, he managed to hold back two Celestial Nether Sword Sect Elders by himself.
Giving Lin Chang’sheng a window to escape.
As soon as Lin Chang’sheng fell back, he immediately started sketching out a Teleportation Gate. As soon as Hou Shaojie and the others arrived, he activated the Teleportation Array and left at once.
Luo Shang’s jaw dropped at the sight.
So Lin Chang’sheng can even set up Teleportation Arrays?
Who the hell is this kid?
Teleportation Arrays aren’t something you just figure out—they’re the hardest thing among all Immortal Techniques.
"Why aren’t we chasing him yet?"
Luo Shang barked furiously.
Instantly, all the Integration Stage big shots released their divine sense, spotting Lin Chang’sheng’s trail two thousand miles away.
They all sped after him.
BOOM BOOM BOOM—
Two thousand miles away, Lin Chang’sheng could feel the massive roar unleashed by the Mahayana Stage experts.
The overwhelming blasts made the whole sky tremble.
"Boss, what do we do now?"
Hou Shaojie asked, thinking they’d just slip into Immortal Palace—apparently, things were way more complicated.
"What else can we do? First priority is staying alive! Run for it! A lot of people are catching up!"
Wang Huisheng cried out anxiously.
The ones on their tail weren’t just Divinity Transformation cultivators, but a dozen Integration Stage monsters.
If those guys caught them, it’d be game over for sure.
"Go!"
Lin Chang’sheng started drawing out another Teleportation Array, taking everyone with him in a flash.
If they tried to run by flying alone, those Integration Stage powerhouses would catch them before a thousand miles had passed.
But keeping this up with Teleportation Arrays would burn Lin Chang’sheng out fast.
They needed a plan to shake off the pursuers, and fast.
