Seeing that he had failed to kill Huang Geng in one fell swoop, Lin Xiuyuan was somewhat disappointed.
However, it was only a covert arrangement, and to avoid arousing suspicion in advance, not many talismans were set up. It was indeed unrealistic to expect to kill a cultivator at the twelfth level of Qi Refining in an instant.
Putting the opponent in a desperate situation is already quite good.
The situation has now been reversed!
If Huo Yun were summoned, she might be able to kill Huang Geng in one fell swoop.
However, revealing such methods in advance will make it more difficult to deal with the even stronger Qiu Heng later... Now that Huang Geng is in a desperate situation, it might be better to wait and see how the situation changes.
Upon realizing this, Lin Xiuyuan suppressed his restless thoughts.
Seeing that Qiu Heng had already destroyed the power of the talisman and was wielding his spirit sword to slash at him, Lin Xiuyuan had no choice but to abandon his plan and continue to use the White Feather Needle to deliver a fatal blow to Huang Geng.
After retrieving the white feather needles, he dared not be careless in the face of Qiu Heng's attack and quickly activated his spirit shield to defend himself.
With a top-tier spiritual shield, and after adding two water magic talismans to form a water shield for protection, he was not flustered in the face of the attack from Qiu Heng, a Qi Refining thirteenth level expert.
However, the opponent was now attacking with all his might in anger, and the power of the spirit sword was becoming increasingly terrifying and unpredictable. The surging power made him feel a chill.
"Bang bang bang!"
The spirit shield trembled violently, its spiritual light flickering incessantly, showing signs of weakening.
The two were at different levels of cultivation, and their techniques were even more disparate. This further widened the gap, giving Lin Xiuyuan the feeling that his opponent's magical power was a level above his own.
Lin Xiuyuan was doing his best, but he could only hold on. If time went on, he might not be able to defend against the opponent's strong attack.
A ruthless glint flashed in Lin Xiuyuan's eyes. Qiu Heng's combat strength was somewhat beyond his imagination. He couldn't let things continue like this. Otherwise, once he was free to go and resolve Huang Geng's predicament, the excellent situation he had created would be ruined, and the situation would be reversed once again.
Otherwise, the only option is to summon Huo Yun?
But then, Lin Xiuyuan gritted his teeth, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes, and directly abandoned the maintenance of the spirit shield, throwing out six more water magic talismans.
Although the protective power of the water talisman is relatively weak, it has eight layers, enough to withstand Qiu Heng's attacks to some extent and buy time to make a move.
Lin Xiuyuan swung his hands, gripping two thick stacks of talismans, and his inner magical power poured out wildly, constantly stimulating them.
But then Lin Xiuyuan's expression changed. Taking advantage of the weakened state of the spirit shield, Qiu Heng knocked it away in one fell swoop.
Moreover, Qiu Heng keenly seized this opportunity and immediately activated a powerful sword technique.
In an instant, the spiritual sword in front of him emitted a terrifying spiritual energy fluctuation, its light flashed violently, and its power surged.
In an instant, the layers of water shield shattered, breaking through three of them at once!
Lin Xiuyuan was shocked. Qiu Heng's combat strength was far beyond his expectations. Such a sect cultivator was indeed extraordinary!
He had no choice but to retreat rapidly, while simultaneously activating the talisman in his hand with all his might and reserving some magical power to enhance the protective aura around him.
The magical power poured out, immediately activating the two thick stacks of talismans on Lin Xiuyuan's hands.
In an instant, multicolored lights flashed.
The main attacks were fireballs, ice arrows, and fire clouds, followed by thorn talismans and earth spike talismans. They suddenly exploded, activating at least dozens or even hundreds of them at once.
Among them were top-tier golden sword talismans bursting with dazzling golden light, and water talismans forming countless water snakes, no less than ten in number.
In an instant, the world here became a kaleidoscope of colors, which also stirred up waves of chaotic spiritual energy.
However, the protective barrier around Lin Xiuyuan had already been completely destroyed.
Lin Xiuyuan's expression was solemn and gloomy. As he retreated rapidly, he fully activated his protective spiritual light, which shimmered with a bright blue aura.
However, the power of this spirit sword was too terrifying. The sword light shot over and instantly pierced through the blue light, striking Lin Xiuyuan's chest. Two bloody marks appeared instantly, and blood gushed out.
Fortunately, Lin Xiuyuan had already activated the talisman and immediately raised his spiritual shield. He wasn't directly hit by the spirit sword itself, only struck by its light. The protective spiritual light absorbed much of the power, and although the injury looked terrifying, it didn't fundamentally damage him.
If one were to be directly struck by the spirit sword itself, their entire chest would likely be torn apart.
However, in the short time, the hastily activated spirit shield could only barely hold on.
Lin Xiuyuan felt a wave of fear; he had been too overconfident and almost capsized in the gutter.
After catching his breath, Lin Xiuyuan quickly calmed down, as the situation was back under his control.
At this moment, the power of countless talismans had already spread out!
As expected, Qiu Heng's expression changed slightly and his heart sank when he saw so many talismans coming at him.
Although such a large number of talismans seemed terrifying, most of them were low to mid-level talismans and could not pose a significant threat to him.
But that would be enough to delay him, leaving him with no energy to deal with Lin Xiuyuan. And so, what about Huang Geng...?
Seeing the spirit sword instantly withdraw, Lin Xiuyuan saw a large number of talismanic powers descend upon Qiu Heng with their numerical advantage. Although they could not form a suppressive force, they successfully held him back.
A hint of killing intent immediately rose on Lin Xiuyuan's face. He turned his head and saw that Huang Geng was still struggling to hold on. If he didn't take this opportunity to kill him, when would he?
"rise!"
Lin Xiuyuan took out a high-grade Spirit Gathering Pill and swallowed it. He then pointed one hand at his chest to suppress the injury with his magic power, while his other hand pinched ten golden sword talismans.
Instantly, golden light burst forth, inexplicably mixed with traces of purple.
