Faced with the surging celestial light, Xu Shilin simply waved the Kan Di Gen Kun Banner in his hand, releasing a radiant glow that seemed almost tangible.
The two beams of light collided instantly and exploded with a deafening roar, scattering the celestial light and radiant glow in all directions.
The entire area below Xianxia Pass was instantly illuminated.
However, Xu Shilin had not yet achieved immortality, while Yuan Tong had already cultivated to the Golden Immortal realm.
The difference between the two is simply worlds apart.
Xu Shilin's skills were insufficient; even with a powerful treasure in hand, it was useless.
After the two beams of celestial light collided, Xu Shilin was struck by the invisible recoil force and was thrown off his horse.
This was also because the Kan-Gen-Kun Banner absorbed 99% of the force; otherwise, he wouldn't have been thrown away, but would have been pulverized.
After being thrown a long way, Xu Shilin finally landed on the ground, staggered back a few steps, and then steadied himself.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Tong couldn't help but shake his head. This brat only had this much skill. It was a pity that his disciple had died at the hands of such a person. It was truly a great injustice.
Little did he know that Yun Teng had not died at Xu Shilin's hands at all.
If he knew it was the Golden Spirit Mother who was responsible for the killing, he probably wouldn't even dare to seek revenge...
As soon as Xu Shilin landed and regained his footing, he saw Yuan Tong take a step and arrive above him. Looking up, he saw that Yuan Tong's sleeves were already open.
Xu Shilin felt an immense force pulling him in, and he involuntarily threw himself into the sleeve.
Xu Shilin hurriedly shook the Kan Di Gen Kun Flag to drive away the gathering force, and leaped out, trying to escape the range of the large sleeve.
Unexpectedly, a bolt of divine lightning struck down from the sky, directly hitting Xu Shilin.
Amidst the thunderous roar.
The colorful glow surrounding Xu Shilin trembled violently.
He had been holding the Kan Di Gen Kun Flag in his hand, but after a few shakes, he lost control and it fell to the ground.
Without the protection of the precious flag, Xu Shilin was practically a lamb to the slaughter in Yuan Tong's hands.
He opened his sleeves again and used the "Hidden Universe in the Sleeve" technique once more. With just a sweep, Xu Shilin disappeared without a trace.
"ah!"
"Release my marshal!"
Upon seeing this, the Qin generals were both shocked and furious. They all drew their weapons and rushed over to rescue Xu Shilin.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Tong simply waved his sleeve again, and a gust of wind suddenly arose from the ground, blowing all the generals away.
Only then did he leisurely bend down, pick up the Kan-Gen-Kun flag, and return to his own formation.
Huang Kun was overjoyed upon seeing this.
"kill!"
The opportunity to strike while he's ill has arrived!
At his command, the captain beside him waved the command flag, and the Xiliang army behind him surged out like a tide, charging towards the Qin army opposite.
Although the Qin army consisted of elite troops, they had just experienced the capture of their commander, and a strange wind had blown them about, causing their morale to plummet.
Faced with the fierce attack of the Xiliang army, they ultimately could not hold out for long and were utterly defeated, leaving behind thousands of corpses before fleeing back to their camp.
When the Xiliang army caught up with the camp, they were immediately stopped by the Qin army that was there to meet them.
After fighting for a while, seeing that they could not break through the camp, Huang Kun ordered his army to retreat and return to Xianxia Pass.
They have won a great victory in today's battle.
Once reinforcements arrive, Huang Kun can launch a counterattack and completely crush the Qin army...
Huang Kun and Yuan Tong returned to the government office. After sitting down, Yuan Tong flicked his sleeve, and a flash of light appeared on the ground, instantly revealing Xu Shilin in front of them.
"Oh!"
The moment Xu Shilin gained his freedom, he realized his predicament, let out a strange cry, turned around without hesitation, and dashed out the door.
However, he had just leaped up and had not yet escaped the main hall.
Yuan Tong then raised his whisk towards Xu Shilin's back, unleashing a beam of divine light that knocked Xu Shilin to the ground and pinned him to the back. Xu Shilin was unable to break free for a moment.
"Once you've fallen into my hands, do you think you can escape!"
Yuan Tong sneered and shouted towards the door, "Someone come here!"
Two guards entered, first looking at their commander, Huang Kun.
Huang Kun frowned and shouted, "What are you looking at me for! Just wait for the Immortal Master's orders."
"Quickly drag him away and behead him, then bring his head back to me as a sacrifice for my poor disciple," Yuan Tong ordered.
"Here you are."
The two agreed and walked up to Xu Shilin.
At this moment, the celestial light pressing down on Xu Shilin's back suddenly disappeared into the void.
However, because of the attack just now, his magical power and divine sense were almost shattered, and his whole body was sore, numb and weak. Even when facing ordinary guards, he still had no power to resist.
The two men lifted Xu Shilin up and walked towards the door.
Even facing certain death, Xu Shilin remained defiant. He turned and glared hatefully at Yuan Tong, then let out a soft snort, without even begging for mercy.
The two men carried him to the middle of the courtyard, and one of them drew a sharpened sword from his waist.
Aiming at the back of Xu Shilin's neck, the sword was suddenly swung out, the blade turning into a cold light as it slashed towards Xu Shilin's neck.
The blade flashed, and heads were in grave danger.
"Spare his life!"
Just then, a woman's voice suddenly rang in the guard's ear.
He was startled, and the blade stopped abruptly, almost slicing through Xu Shilin's skin.
The two guards looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pretty and lovely female Taoist priestess walking in through the door.
When they first saw the female Taoist, she was clearly dozens of feet away, but by the time her appearance came into view, she was already standing right in front of them.
Seeing a steel knife still pressed against Xu Shilin's shoulder, she couldn't help but chuckle: "Junior Brother Xu! How did you end up in such a sorry state..."
As she spoke, she casually extended a slender, jade-like finger and pointed it at the steel knife from several feet away.
No energy was emitted from the fingertips, yet the steel knife had already silently turned into dust.
Not fragments, but real dust, appearing even more brittle and insignificant than the smallest specks of dust invisible to the naked eye...
Just when Xu Shilin was in despair, he saw his savior arrive and was overjoyed.
Hearing the way the other person addressed him, he couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Junior brother?
Could they be from the same school?
But he had never seen this person on Jin'ao Island!
"May I ask what your honorific title is, Senior Sister...?"
The female immortal did not answer, but smiled lightly and swept her sleeve, instantly turning the two guards into rolling gourds on the ground.
The next moment, she grabbed Xu Shilin's shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's talk about everything after you're safe."
After saying that, a cloud suddenly rose from beneath her feet, carrying the two of them swiftly into the sky.
"Eh? Fellow Daoist, where did this come from! Why are you ruining my plans!"
Yuan Tong sensed the change outside and immediately shouted, rushing out of the room. He saw Xu Shilin actually riding the clouds into the sky and fiercely threw his whisk away...
