Within the golden eggshell, Lu Tiandu watched the shuttle, now locked in a fierce battle with the Green Dragon Flag, knowing he wouldn't be able to capture the opponent's magical weapon anytime soon.
Furthermore, he feared the opponent might unleash another formidable magical weapon. With his spiritual energy now significantly replenished, he no longer hesitated.
He stretched out his hand, and a shimmering golden talisman appeared in his hand. Within the talisman, a gilded, misty green mirror shone vividly, radiating rays of light.
It was the Green Condensation Mirror Talisman!
Lu Tiandu was now encased within the golden eggshell, making it impossible for the two outsiders to discern what lay within.
A Qi Refining cultivator's spiritual awareness was limited to controlling two magical weapons. Due to the image of the Stone Furnace within his sea of consciousness,
Lu Tiandu's spiritual energy was significantly stronger than that of an average person, rivaling that of a thirteenth-level cultivator.
Most of his consciousness was now focused on the Green Dragon Flag, grappling with it while guiding the opponent's shuttle into a spiral high above.
Because he was wearing the golden inner armor, he didn't need to expend much spiritual power to guide his movements; all he needed to do was maintain a constant supply of mana.
Lu Tiandu forced a moment of concentration, chanting an incantation and infusing his spiritual energy into activating the talisman in his hand.
Unlike talismans, the talisman couldn't be activated instantly, requiring some time.
Within a few breaths, a misty green mirror, about a foot in size, appeared above his head.
Gazing at the impatient, burly man outside, Lu Tiandu feared he might attempt to escape alone.
After all, he wasn't confident he could catch up to the incredibly fast shuttle. He'd actually had a chance to kill the already crippled, lanky man, but he'd held off to keep him occupied to distract the burly man, which had worked out well.
With a sneer, Lu Tiandu instantly removed the protective shield formed by the golden armor. He extended his finger, and the green jade-like mirror above his head flashed with light. With a "chi," a thick green beam of light shot towards the burly man.
The burly man, commanding the shuttle to engage the green dragon while plotting a way to escape, suddenly saw a beam of light shooting out from above Lu Tiandu's head. Startled, he quickly directed the small white jade shield protecting him to face the thick green beam.
"How is this possible?"
the burly man gasped in shock. The small white jade shield met the green beam, only to be instantly frozen in mid-air, motionless.
Even the white light shield that protected him vanished instantly.
"Not good!"
The burly man's heart sank at the disappearance of the shield.
He sensed that the small white jade shield wasn't damaged, but rather seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, making it difficult to move. Just as he increased his mana to channel it, a green sword shadow suddenly appeared before his eyes.
"Be careful!"
Just as he felt an inexplicable chill in his throat, his second brother's angry voice echoed in his ears.
Instantly, he lost consciousness and fell into darkness.
In his final moments, he imagined himself rapidly ascending to the thirteenth level. Then, relying on some secret, he obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill from the Divine Weapon Sect's Golden Core Elder. Successfully establishing his foundation, he embarked on a life of cultivation within the Divine Weapon Sect, along with his sworn brothers from childhood...
"Ahhhh... I'll fight you!"
A miserable roar echoed. The lanky figure, recuperating on the slope, suddenly sat up. He slapped his storage bag, and a black knife appeared in his hand. His remaining mana poured into the knife, transforming it into a foot-long black beam that shot towards Lu Tiandu.
"Hmph!"
Lu Tiandu snorted coldly. He extended his hand, and with a flick of his finger, his cyan flying sword flashed, intercepting the black blade's light.
With another wave of his hand, a cyan dragon in the sky, carrying the ownerless flying shuttle, now restored to the size of a palm, charged towards the lanky figure, its fangs bared.
The green light shield shattered at the touch, and in the blink of an eye, a cyan dragon shadow burst forth from the other side of the lanky figure's shattered body.
With a wave of his hand, the green dragon's tail swung, returning to Lu Tiandu's side, transforming into a small green flag about a foot long and a silver shuttle the size of a palm.
Without a second glance, he put away the two magical instruments. Lu Tiandu then withdrew the magic power infused into the Qing Ning Jing talisman, and a piece of golden talisman paper fell into his hands.
Without the talisman's restraint, the white jade shield opposite him also transformed into a small shield about a foot long and fell to the ground.
"This treasure has indeed worked wonders!"
Looking at the talisman, still gleaming with golden light, Lu Tiandu smiled faintly.
This time, the talisman had performed a remarkable feat.
Without the Qing Ning Jing talisman, which had immobilized the burly man's white jade shield, Lu Tiandu truly would not have been able to defeat him.
With another wave of his hand, the Sui Feng Sword transformed into a green light, swirling with a black knife and flying back into his hand.
Quickly picking up the three people's storage bags, along with the white jade shields, talismans, and other items that had fallen to the ground, Lu Tiandu casually launched three fireballs, reducing the three bodies to ash.
With a flick of his sleeve, a powerful gust of wind swept through, and everything returned to calm. Sensing the dwindling mana within him, Lu Tiandu launched his flying sword, swiftly navigating his way while taking out a mid-level spirit stone to replenish his spiritual energy.
Instead of flying south towards the Kingdom of Yue, Lu Tiandu flew west for dozens of miles, landing on a desolate mountaintop. After a careful scan with his spiritual sense, finding nothing unusual, he opened up a simple cave, set up his formation flags, and vanished into the world of stone beads.
A day later, Lu Tiandu emerged from his meditation.
By then, his spiritual energy had fully recovered, and even felt slightly improved after the battle.
After silently reviewing the battle, Lu Tiandu began to sort out his spoils.Although he had faced an enemy three times his size, he had so many treasures that even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would only envy him.
He had narrowly escaped danger.With a casual gesture, a silver shuttle appeared in his hand. Looking at the silver shuttle, pointed at both ends and slightly oval in the middle, a hint of a smile crossed Lu Tiandu's lips.
The shuttle's speed was surprisingly faster than his top-grade wind-type flying sword, which he had driven with wind-type mana. In the past two years, no Qi Refining disciple he had encountered had surpassed his speed; this was the first time.
It was truly unforgettable .
Furthermore, this shuttle was more than just a flying magical instrument; its offensive power was astonishing. Had it not been for the full power of the precious, top-grade, golden inner armor, the outcome would have been unpredictable.
This shuttle was undoubtedly a supremely fine, top-grade magical instrument.
After fondly toying with it for a moment, Lu Tiandu finally took a look at the burly man's small white jade shield.
It was indeed a rare, top-grade magical weapon, of the same rank as the yellow crystal shield he had seen in the Stardust Pavilion.
With such a defensive magical weapon, as long as the wielder possessed sufficient mana, Lu Tian wouldn't be able to break the shield with his Wind-Following Sword, and even with his full power, even the Green Dragon Flag would likely be unable to defeat it for a short time.
"He possesses both a top-grade magical weapon and a rare-grade defensive magical weapon, and his cultivation is quite impressive. What is his background?"
Seeing these two treasures, Lu Tiandu deeply doubted their identity.
After all, even though he had already become quite wealthy a year ago, he couldn't afford such a top-grade magical weapon, unless it was passed down from his family or sect.
Lu Tiandu picked up the burly man's storage bag again and emptied out the contents to examine them.
The most conspicuous item was a jade box wrapped in layers of forbidden talismans.
Lu Tiandu slightly activated the golden armor on his body, giving his whole body a layer of golden light. His hands were also filled with magic power. Then he gently uncovered the talisman and opened the jade box.
A dark yellow stone-like object lay quietly in the jade box.
Seeing that there was no mystery, Lu Tiandu relaxed and lifted the stone to examine it.
The stone was slightly heavy and had a dark color, giving him a familiar feeling.
"What is this?" Lu Tiandu looked at it over and over again, the joy in his eyes growing brighter and brighter.
"This is actually a piece of copper essence? The essence of the five metals that can be used to refine magic weapons!"
