Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Not long after the couple entered their cave abode, they quietly left Flaming Cloud City without attracting anyone’s attention.

Only when Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan took several teleportation arrays were they informed that the couple was no longer in their cave abode.

“Damn it, we almost let them escape.”

Lu Xingyun said with lingering fear.

If he hadn’t planted his people on various teleportation arrays, the Lu family wouldn’t have received the news so quickly.

“There’s no time to lose. Let’s go over now.”

Lu Xingyun immediately led all the cultivators above the Golden Core to chase after Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

However, to everyone’s surprise, when they caught up with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, they realized that someone had already beat them to it and was confronting the couple.

This person was dressed in gray and wore a bamboo hat. He looked to be in his fifties.

At this moment, he stood there without saying or moving, but he gave off an indescribable pressure.

“That’s…

Daoist Gray Crane!”

Suddenly, someone recognized that person.

In an instant, many people were taken aback.

Clearly, most of the people present had heard of Daoist Gray Crane.

It was said that this person was a wandering independent cultivator who did things his own way.

His cultivation was at the False Nascent Soul.

Over the years, he had been making preparations for forming the Nascent Soul.

Now that he intercepted Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, it must be because of that Five Elements True Technique.

It was said that wherever he was, there would be a crane-type demon beast that had reached the false Level 5.

This was also the reason why he was called Daoist Gray Crane.

Squeak.

Just as this thought flashed through everyone’s minds, a loud cry of a crane suddenly came from the sky.

Immediately after, everyone was shocked to see a huge gray crane that was a thousand feet long suddenly appear in the sky.

The pressure emitted by the crane was already infinitely close to Level 5.

Perhaps as long as there was an opportunity, this demon beast would become Level 5.

Whoosh—

A hurricane suddenly rose from the ground.

After circling in the sky for a while, the gray crane fixed its eyes on Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

It was only then that Daoist Gray Crane looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and spoke slowly.

“If you hand over everything you have without struggling, I might let you off.”

Hearing Daoist Gray Crane’s words, the expressions of the cultivators who had rushed over could not help but change slightly.

On the other hand, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s expressions did not change much.

Jiang Chengxuan’s tone was even calmer.

He said slowly, “Is that so? What if we don’t? What will you do?”

“Don’t?”

Daoist Gray Crane’s face was twisted with anger.

His tone changed from calm to cold.

“I’ve suddenly changed my mind. Even if you hand over everything you have, I don’t plan to let you live.”

As he spoke, his gaze suddenly turned to the others present and he said indifferently,

“Everyone, I know why you’re here.

To me, the most important thing is the Five Elements True Technique.

However, I believe that not everyone’s goal is the Five Elements True Technique.

Even if you are really here for the Five Elements True Technique, 1 hope that everyone can work with me to deal with the two of them first before figuring out what to do. How about that?”

Many people were caught off guard.

Just now, they thought that Daoist Gray Crane was about to fight Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to death, but they didn’t expect him to seek cooperation with them.

Obviously, Daoist Gray Crane was not stupid.

What if he went all out in fighting with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and got injured? Wouldn’t he put himself at risk of being taken advantage of by the others?

“Hehe, Brother Gray Crane is a straightforward person. If that’s the case, then count the Lu family in.”

Lu Xingyun spoke first.

As he spoke, he, Lu Wanming, Lu Wancheng, Lu Wanhai, and the other Golden Cores of the Lu family had already surrounded Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Seeing this, the remaining people also agreed tacitly.

Without another word, they blocked all possible escape routes for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Seeing this, Daoist Gray Crane stopped hesitating.

A killing intent suddenly flashed across his eyes. After he shouted, “Attack!”, a huge net that was covered in a hazy gray light enveloped Jiang Chengxuan and his Dao companion.

At the same time, he opened his mouth and spat.

A grayish-brown flying sword slashed at the couple.

Squeak.

Seeing that its master had attacked, the gray crane in the sky also became active.

It opened its mouth.

Boom! Boom!

Two huge gray pillars of light that were dozens of feet in diameter suddenly fell on Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan from above.

“Let’s get this over with in the shortest time possible.”

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan turned around and said to Shen Ruyan.

In the next moment, he immediately transformed into a stream of light.

The demon slaying talent was activated.

There was a buzz.

A huge distorted ripple suddenly appeared in the air.

Immediately after, everyone heard a tearing sound.

The gray net that was closing in on him and Shen Ruyan was torn apart by Jiang Chengxuan’s Deep Earth Halberd.

Before Daoist Gray Crane and everyone present could react, Jiang Chengxuan’s figure that was soaring into the sky suddenly expanded.

Pop! Pop!

His body became 300 feet tall in the blink of an eye.

He raised the Deep Earth Halberd in his hand and swung.

Boom, boom, boom!

In the air, mushroom clouds suddenly rose.

Amidst the turbulent air, Jiang Chengxuan’s figure rushed out of the huge mushroom cloud.

Squeak.

As if sensing danger, the gray crane in the sky let out a cry.

Its body instantly grew taller.

It spread its wings.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

Immediately, countless sharp feathers slashed at Jiang Chengxuan like arrows.

Almost every one of these sharp feathers had the power to instantly kill mid-stage or even late-stage Golden Core cultivators.

However, Jiang Chengxuan remained expressionless in the face of these arrows.

The Deep Earth Halberd in his hand slashed out again.

Dong—

It was as if the void was broken.

A visible ripple of halberd light quickly spread forward with the tip of the halberd as the center.

There was a series of clangs.

The sharp feather shot out by the gray crane was all destroyed.

At the same time, Jiang Chengxuan’s figure arrived below the gray demon crane.

Killing intent flashed across his eyes.

Jiang Chengxuan did not show any mercy.

The muscles on his arms suddenly bulged, raising the Deep Earth Halberd in his hand to draw a semicircle in the air.

There was a bang.

The Deep Earth Halberd that was hundreds of feet long smashed right into the gray demon crane’s body!
