Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant

Chapter 208: Pressing Step by Step


The voice was sudden.

Shen Xuan slightly frowned.

In the [Insight Technique], a team of red-cloaked law enforcers, led by a squad leader, aggressively charged forward.

It was the squad leader who shouted.

Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivation.

The four team members behind him were all in the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation.

The loose cultivators watching around Shen Xuan all dispersed, making way.

"Sir, it's nothing! I'm just selling the Profound Water Turtles!"

Old Peng gritted his teeth, went up, and handed over two Spirit Stones.

The squad leader stretched out his hand, pushed away Old Peng's Spirit Stones, and sneered: "Trying to bribe the law enforcement team in public? Move aside!"

He walked up to Shen Xuan.

"What's your name?"

"Shen Xuan."

"Why is the name you registered with to enter the city Shen Cheng?"

"Shen Cheng is my original name."

"Quibbling!"

The squad leader sneered: "Falsifying identity to infiltrate the market, you must have ulterior motives! Seize him!"

"No! Sir, it's a misunderstanding!"

Old Peng pleaded with a flattering face.

"Master Shen has lived here for over fifty years, surely he's a good cultivator!"

The familiar loose cultivators all pleaded.

"Sir, Old Peng speaks the truth. Please, sir, don't hold it against Master Shen!"

"Indeed. Master Shen is an elder of Cyan Dragon Bay Market. Please, sir, show mercy!"

The law enforcement squad leader shouted coldly.

"Silence!"

"Red Rainbow Sect's law enforcement team is handling this, those with sense, step aside!"

"Otherwise, you'll be considered accomplices and be taken to the Law Enforcement Hall as well!"

Seeing the law enforcement squad leader being so fierce, the loose cultivators fell silent and dared not speak.

Shen Xuan sighed deeply.

He too had come from the grassroots of the market as a loose cultivator, and he knew very well that this law enforcement squad leader was exploiting the situation to target him.

From the beginning, he had ill intentions.

The falsifying of identity was just an excuse.

If Shen Xuan were a rootless loose cultivator, entering the Red Rainbow Sect's Law Enforcement Hall, it wouldn't be so easy to get out.

If he could get away with just losing money, it would be considered good.

The worst fear was to disappear without a trace, vanishing from the cultivation realm.

This is also one reason why loose cultivators are reluctant to leave their original market easily.

Shen Xuan cupped his fists in salute and said: "Sir, I was careless in registering my original name. It's a small matter, and I will change it immediately. Please, sir, don't hold it against me."

"You say it so lightly!"

The law enforcement squad leader gave Shen Xuan a sidelong glance.

"Song Country is at war with Liang Country's demon cultivators. Who knows if you're a spy for the demon cultivators!"

Shen Xuan was slightly stunned.

This was a trumped-up charge.

Colluding with demon cultivators anywhere within the sphere of influence of any sect in Song Country would result in immediate execution without mercy.

He was somewhat confused as to why the Red Rainbow Sect's law enforcement team would handle matters so crudely.

In broad daylight, if they wanted to target an outsider loose cultivator, they should at least find a legitimate reason!

Shen Xuan coldly said: "You're trying to frame me."

"I had heard before that Red Rainbow Sect acted domineeringly, and now I see it firsthand!"

At these words, the Red Rainbow Sect law enforcement squad of five was furious.

"How dare you! To slander my Red Rainbow Sect, you must be a demon cultivator's spy!"

"Seize him!"

Two law enforcement team members, holding Sealing Spirit Ropes, stepped forward to bind him.

Shen Xuan sighed softly.

There was a line in a movie from a past life that said it well.

If you want to make it, you need power and background.

The same applies in the cultivation realm.

Only, it's about foundation, family background, and connections.

Shen Xuan is a true disciple of the Cyan Cloud Sect.

His status even surpasses that of the Chief Elder of Red Rainbow Sect in Cyan Dragon Bay.

How could he allow anyone to falsely accuse him?

The two law enforcement team members tried to loop the Sealing Spirit Rope over Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan's face turned cold.

His body did not move.

Two Dark Ice Fish leapt out.

The two law enforcement team members were startled. As they opened their mouths.

Before they could make a sound.

The Dark Ice Fish shot at them.

The next instant, the two instantly turned into ice sculptures.

Ever since the [Ice Soul Spirit Body] matured, all Techniques performed by Shen Xuan carried a freezing effect.

"How bold!"

The law enforcement squad leader wielded a Magic Sword.

Before he could act.

A Dark Ice Fish swiftly flew over.

At Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, he too was instantly frozen as an ice sculpture.

The remaining two team members behind, seeing Shen Xuan's prowess, turned to flee.

Shen Xuan watched their fleeing figures, smiling slightly.

"Master Shen, you should leave quickly!"

"Yes, the market is overseen by Red Rainbow Sect's Foundation Establishment Elder!"

A daring loose cultivator whispered advice.

"Thank you all for the warning. I originally wanted to treat everyone to a meal, but it seems that's spoiled."

"Everyone, please stand aside. Allow me to offer you a good show!"

Having already acted, Shen Xuan decided to escalate the matter.

After all, in Cyan Dragon Bay Market, Red Rainbow Sect only has two Foundation Establishment cultivators overseeing it.

Shen Xuan really didn't take them seriously.

As for Core Formation True Masters.

It's not just that they're not at Cyan Dragon Bay Market.

Even if they were, they wouldn't pick on someone at their level, taking action against him.

Do they think he's a rootless loose cultivator?

Cyan Cloud Sect is one of Song Country's seven major sects.

It's said to have Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

And over ten Golden Core True Masters.

They're not someone that the Red Rainbow Sect, with just one Golden Core True Master, can contend with.

Not long after.

The two law enforcement team members returned with a group of people.

There were over twenty people in total.

At the forefront, there was someone with Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer Realm cultivation.

Presumably, this person is the Cyan Dragon Bay law enforcement captain.

"Where's the demon cultivator spy that dares to run amok on Red Rainbow Sect's territory!"

Shen Xuan couldn't be bothered to argue.

He pointed with a finger.

At the tip of his finger, transparent Dark Ice Fish leapt forth.

A few breaths later.

The Law Enforcement Captain used his magic sword to deflect a Dark Ice Fish.

His face had already turned pale.

On the scene.

Apart from him.

The twenty-something people he brought were all frozen into ice sculptures.

"Stop!" the Law Enforcement Captain trembled as he shouted.

His hand holding the magic sword pointed at Shen Xuan, but it kept trembling.

"Accusing me of being a Demon Cultivator spy, are you trying to seize my belongings?"

"After looting everything, would you even spare my life?"

"Probably not."

Shen Xuan looked heartbroken and distressed.

"The Red Rainbow Sect claims to be a Daoist Sect, yet their methods are so despicable!"

"Fellow Daoist, misunderstanding, it is all a misunderstanding!" the Law Enforcement Captain was flustered and quickly tried to explain.

"My men were blind and mistook you for someone else. I hope you will spare us for the sake of the Red Rainbow Sect, please..."

At this moment, Shen Xuan looked up.

The sound of something breaking through the air arose.

A figure came soaring on a sword.

Seeing this, the Law Enforcement Captain was overjoyed.

"Elder Liu, this person is a Demon Cultivator skilled in ice techniques, be careful!"

In an instant, his demeanor changed.

"Bold Demon Cultivator! How dare you cause chaos in front of me!"

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator flying in on his sword glanced at the frozen Red Rainbow Sect law enforcers and shouted harshly.

It was Liu Wangjing, the Foundation Establishment Elder stationed at the Cyan Dragon Bay Market by the Red Rainbow Sect.

Without even asking a question, he summoned the Flowing Cloud Flame Saber, sending several eerie blue flames silently at Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan shook his head slightly.

He was contemplating whether to show mercy and stop.

Unexpectedly, the Red Rainbow Sect's cultivators were increasingly overbearing.

With Liu Wangjing directly showcasing his lifebound magical treasure in attack, Shen Xuan had no choice but to act.

"Swift!"

With Shen Xuan's shout, a dozen Dark Ice Fish leaped from his fingertips, colliding with the eerie blue flames, extinguishing them with a "puff" sound.

Liu Wangjing was both shocked and furious.

He had summoned his lifebound magical treasure, yet his opponent merely formed a spell and dispelled his attack completely.

The strength gap between the two was immediately clear.

"Still claim you're not a Demon Cultivator!"

Liu Wangjing gathered spiritual power, tapping his Flowing Cloud Flame Saber several times.

Instantly, the saber's light flared and transformed into a mass of eerie blue flames, emitting a terrifying aura ready to incinerate everything, aiming at Shen Xuan.

"Stubborn fool!"

Shen Xuan coldly shouted.

As soon as his words fell.

The eerie blue flames overwhelmed.

The surrounding air sizzled.

The nearby loose cultivators retreated to the periphery one after another.

Worried about being caught in the crossfire.

From within Shen Xuan's body, Dark Ice Fish leapt out, forming layers of Spiritual Ice Wall before him, blocking the eerie blue flames.

The sizzle of the burning flames echoed through the market.

Shen Xuan stood silently in place, coldly staring at Liu Wangjing.

Every time a layer of Spiritual Ice Wall melted away, a Dark Ice Fish would leap from Shen Xuan's body to replenish the original Spiritual Ice Wall.

The power of the eerie blue flames gradually waned.

Under the protection of the nine-layered Spiritual Ice Wall, Shen Xuan remained as stable as Mount Tai.

"What an impressive Demon Cultivator!"

Liu Wangjing's face was gloomy, his voice trembling slightly.

By now, he realized that Shen Xuan's strength was not to be underestimated.

Though water techniques suppressed fire techniques,

The true decider of victory lay in the power of their techniques during magical combat.

The eerie blue flames returned to the Flowing Cloud Flame Saber, held in Liu Wangjing's hand.

Then.

He shouted loudly.

His body enlarged.

Now one and a half zhang tall, nearly twice his original size.

Overlooking with the Flowing Cloud Flame Saber, turning into a cloud of fire, he fiercely struck at the Spiritual Ice Wall.

The sound of "clang, clang" was uninterrupted.

His speed was incredibly fast.

With each strike, a layer of Spiritual Ice Wall was broken.

"Let's see how much spiritual power you have left!"

Breaking through nine layers of Spiritual Ice Wall in one breath, Liu Wangjing opened his mouth, spitting out a mass of eerie blue flames at Shen Xuan to burn him.

This fire, obtained from a mineral vein, named the Flowing Cloud Star Flame, was an unusual flame carried by the Flowing Cloud Star Stone.

Nurtured for thirty years with Foundation Establishment True Flame, its power was formidable, enough to incinerate an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator's flesh body.

This was his trump card.

Shen Xuan remained calm.

As if he had anticipated this.

Even now, he had not summoned a magical treasure.

Instead, he lightly pointed at the Flowing Cloud Star Flame.

A miniature Cold Ice Divine Dragon suddenly appeared.

Raising its head, it let out a low roar.

In just a moment, it expanded to several feet, imbued with extremely cold yin power, roaring as it attacked the Flowing Cloud Star Flame.

"Whoosh!"

The Flowing Cloud Star Flame suddenly froze, maintaining its original form.

Frost appeared around it.

Soon, it formed a mass of ice, tightly sealing it.

Liu Wangjing used the Flowing Cloud Flame Saber to fend off the Cold Ice Divine Dragon, quickly retreating.

"My Anomalous Fire!"

He exclaimed in shock as the Flowing Cloud Flame Saber was covered in frost.

Looking at Shen Xuan, his eyes were full of hatred.

No matter what, in this magical combat, his reputation was ruined.

Even his intimately linked Anomalous Fire was bound and taken by Shen Xuan.

The Red Rainbow Sect's cultivators completely underestimated Shen Xuan's power.

Initially, the Law Enforcement Squad Leader saw him as an easy target, intending to take him to the Law Enforcement Hall to plunder spirit stones.

Later, the Law Enforcement Captain, informed by his subordinates, came in full force to drag him to the Law Enforcement Hall for questioning.

Until the appearance of the Market Chief Elder, Liu Wangjing.

Likewise, without discerning the truth, he attacked with his magical treasure.

The Red Rainbow Sect's domineering style was evident.

This time, they faced Shen Xuan, and hit an iron wall.

Liu Wangjing squinted,

Raising his right hand high,

Then slashed it downward heavily.

What followed were countless golden light spiritual arrows, shooting at Shen Xuan like lightning, engulfing from all directions.

"Damn! The Red Rainbow Sect activated the Market Array!"

Someone shouted in astonishment.
