Cultivation: Being Immortal

Lin Jiang led away all the Qi Refining Period enemies, leaving Zhang Ruifang facing three opponents in the Building Foundation Period, just like her, all in the early stages of Building Foundation.

In a situation of three against one, Zhang Ruifang didn't have the advantage, she was only defending herself and eager to enter the forest to show her assassin skills.

Seeing Lin Jiang forced into the forest, Zhang Ruifang was extremely worried and even more eager to enter the forest.

But the other person doesn't give her a chance, every time she approaches the direction of the forest, they force her to come back.

"Go."

Zhang Ruifang gritted her teeth and scattered the remaining dozen or so spiritual talismans on her body. Various methods of attack were suddenly flying everywhere.

"Be careful, she's going into the forest."

As assassins themselves, those three people knew exactly what Zhang Ruifang intended to do. Ignoring the attacks from the spiritual talismans, someone wielded their sword and aimed at Zhang Ruifang, trying to keep her from escaping.

"Missed, she got away."

"Should we chase her?"

The three of them immediately panicked. In the Dark Night, they were considered average in terms of strength. The powerful assassins were no longer around, as they had suffered losses in a battle at Sanjiang Estuary a few years ago and then were hunted down by the two major sects, resulting in further losses.

The remaining assassins are just ordinary. They have been undercover for years with no income, so they don't have the money to train new top-level assassins. That's why only Cao Yang went to assassinate Wen Xing. If it were before, Dark Night would have sent at least two or three people to carry out the mission.

"Go in and kill her. She must die."

The leader of the building foundation late-stage assassins spoke up. Zhang Ruifang must die. The organization has put in a lot of effort to train these assassins. If she just escapes without punishment, it will be difficult to lead the team in the future.

"Let's go."

The three of them glanced at each other and flew towards the nearest forest.

But at that moment, Zhang Ruifang appeared behind them. Zhang Ruifang held a dagger and stabbed one of them in the waist. She twisted the knife forcefully, pulled it out, and quickly retreated.

It turns out Zhang Ruifang didn't really run away. She used a spiritual talisman to interfere with the three men's vision and used a hiding technique to enter the ground.

"Ah!"

The person who was stabbed let out a scream. For a cultivator in the building foundation period, this kind of injury is not actually fatal, but you need advanced healing pills in advance, starting from the third rank.

Unfortunately, he didn't have it.

At this moment, Zhang Ruifang truly disappeared into the forest. Once inside, her figure completely vanished. The two of them cautiously tracked into the forest, searching inch by inch with their senses, but found no trace.

"Stay together, don't separate."

The two of them had a strong understanding. They had no intention of splitting up and giving Zhang Ruifang a chance to attack them separately.

Zhang Ruifang was about a hundred meters away from them now. The range of the Building Foundation Period's senses could exceed a hundred meters, but the farther the distance, the weaker the senses. For someone in the Building Foundation Period, a hundred meter distance was already beyond the detailed scanning range of their senses.

Seeing that the two of them wouldn't separate, Zhang Ruifang acted immediately. She didn't approach them directly, but maintained a distance of about a hundred meters. She moved quickly, creating various noises.

The two of them naturally heard these noises. They began to search, but every time they reached a location, it turned out to be empty. This gave them a feeling that Zhang Ruifang was like a ghost, existing in every place.

"Ah!"

After a quarter of an hour, several miles away, the last Qi Refining Period met a brutal death at Zhang Ruifang's hands. The previous noises were just a feint. Her goal was to help Lin Jiang eliminate his opponents.

"You should hurry and leave. That person outside is called Chen Jianhong. He is an expert assassin, even better than Cao Yang, and one of the top fighters in the Dark Night."

Zhang Ruifang said to Lin Jiang. Chen Jianhong is even more skilled than Cao Yang. He is very powerful, and Zhang Ruifang has no confidence in facing him.

"I can't escape. Aurora Falcon is being targeted by him. In terms of speed, I can't compete with him. I can only take them out."

Lin Jiang said. Besides, these people also need to be silenced. Only by silencing them can his identity in Yunzhong City remain a secret. Otherwise, he will be discovered sooner or later.

"We are not opponents."

"Maybe not. By dealing with the remaining two Building Foundation members, the two of us, along with Aurora Falcon, have the strength of Building Foundation."

"You..."

Zhang Ruifang was somewhat surprised. She knew Lin Jiang had used a secret technique. Can it be sustained, considering the great cost of using such a technique to compete with Building Foundation in a short time?

"Trust me."

Lin Jiang said softly, looking at the system. With over forty thousand years of life, he could easily indulge himself. The Explosive Element Technique could only last a hundred years at most, but he could afford it completely.

"Okay, come close and listen..."

Zhang Ruifang gritted her teeth and agreed. She whispered in Lin Jiang's ear, and then they hid Cao Ying, who had been knocked unconscious by Lin Jiang's spell, in a big tree.

·······

"There's no movement."

"Did they run away?"

"It's possible."

"What do we do? We can't explain this."

The two assassins couldn't find Zhang Ruifang at the moment, and they couldn't hear any sound either. Both of them were getting panicky. If their target escaped, they would be severely punished by the organization.

In fact, once they entered the forest, they lost control. Whether it was an ambush or running away, it was up to Zhang Ruifang to decide.

"Splash"

However, at this moment, there was a noise from a hundred meters away, making both of them feel uneasy. Even though they knew it could be a trap, they had to go and check.

A hundred meters away, there was a thick tangle of thorns that could easily hide a few people. The two of them silently approached.

After getting closer, the two of them exchanged a glance, and one of them took out a special charm and threw it towards the thorns.

"Thud"

This was a golden charm. After activating the special charm, dozens of golden lights disappeared into the thorny bushes. However, apart from the sound of hitting the ground, there was no other movement.

Both of them realized that they missed their target again and were about to retreat. But before they could turn around, they heard a rushing sound behind them.

Lin Jiang activated another special charm. He could only activate twenty charms at a time, which was the limit of his ability. He intentionally chose seven different charms to confuse and distract the enemy with a variety of attacks.

"One Sword Flying Immortal"

"Explosive Element Technique"

After Lin Jiang activated the spiritual talisman, he used a secret technique again to deal with a powerful opponent in the Building Foundation Period. Neither the Qianque Crossbow nor the silver needles were effective, only the use of the Explosive Elemental Technique, which consumed life force, could pose a threat to the opponent in the Building Foundation Period.

"I'll block it."

"Kill"

The two of them cooperated seamlessly. One person used a magical shield to block the attack and used a flying sword to sweep away the attacks from the spiritual talisman. The other person attacked from the side, aiming to kill the opponent.

"Boom"

Lin Jiang's Flying Sword Immortal first collided with the opponent's shield, then Lin Jiang quickly advanced and continued to attack.

However, in mid-air, the person who intended to assassinate Lin Jiang was intercepted by Zhang Ruifang. Both of them abandoned their flying swords and used daggers, fiercely stabbing at each other, trying to see who was quicker and more resistant.

(Translated by Gravity Tales 😒)

"Snap"

After a short while, both of them landed, but Zhang Ruifang was standing while the other person was already lying on the ground, clutching their neck with despair in their eyes.

Facing this person against Lin Jiang was also not optimistic. Every punch from Lin Jiang was equally strong as his. He was tightly constrained until Zhang Ruifang appeared behind him and finished the battle with one slash.

"You're hurt."

Lin Jiang approached and noticed a strong smell of blood coming from Zhang Ruifang's body. He saw at least three wounds.

"I'm fine."

Zhang Ruifang replied, feeling frustrated. She had been too comfortable these past few years. If it was during her peak period, she wouldn't have been hit even once. But now, she had been struck five times. Although she managed to avoid vital areas, it would definitely affect the upcoming battles.

"I have some medicine for injuries."

"Keep it, I have some too."

Zhang Ruifang shook her head. She took out a medicine and swallowed one first, then crushed another one and applied it to her wound.

"Let's go outside. Once we kill the last person, we can go home or somewhere else."

Lin Jiang picked up their bag and divided it into two, giving one to Zhang Ruifang. He also put a few in his own pocket.

"Okay."

Zhang Ruifang nodded and intentionally lagged behind Lin Jiang. Then she put another medicine in her mouth.

Chen Jianhong was still struggling with Big Shadiao and Small Shadiao. They were not his match, but they were fast and flew high. Chen Jianhong couldn't handle them, except for a few times when he managed to lure them down but almost succeeded.

"It's impressive to see an excellent assassin trained by the organization."

Chen Jianhong saw Lin Jiang and Zhang Ruifang coming out and knew that all his people were dead, but he didn't care. Those people were from the organization, not his subordinates. It didn't matter to him if they died. As long as he killed Zhang Ruifang, he would complete his mission.

"Chen Jianhong, my late husband Cao Yang helped you several times back then. Why go to such extremes?"

"Cao Yang is really good and has helped me before, but you know the rules of the organization. You shouldn't have run away. Running away is a capital crime. If you don't die, then I will have to die."

Chen Jianhong said that he really admires Cao Yang. They fought side by side before, and Cao Yang even helped him. But that little favor isn't enough for him to die for Cao Yang's wife and child.

"So there's nothing more to say. Are we really going to fight to the death?"

"Zhang Ruifang, do you really think you can beat me just by relying on these two animals?"

"How do you know if you don't even give it a try?"

"Haha, if your husband Cao Yang were here, maybe I would be a little worried. As for you, tut tut..."

Chen Jianhong shook his head. Zhang Ruifang had a decent rank within their organization, above average, but compared to him, there was a big difference. This kind of rank could mean the difference between life and death.

"Looks like I still don't have any presence at all."

Lin Jiang rubbed his nose, feeling embarrassed. Chen Jianhong was completely ignoring him, and he felt worse than Big Shadiao and Small Shadiao. This made Lin Jiang very angry, like he had no dignity at all.
