Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 313: Third-order Talisman

Of course, Guang HuiDaoist dares to take the initiative in the battle because he has his own trump cards. Originally, Guang ZhiDaoist Master consumed a large amount of precious materials to refine three Third Rank symbols. During the previous battle, Guang HuiDaoist thought victory was assured, so as a precaution, he only brought two of them, keeping the most powerful Third Rank symbol safely stored in the treasury.

Now, it is a life-and-death battle that will determine the fate of Forest Spring Watch. Guang HuiDaoist has no reservations and brings out this Third Rank symbol. He fully activates the true qi in his body, preparing to release the power of the talisman. However, a scene caught his eye that almost made him lose control of his true qi.

Azure Bamboo, a Foundation Building stage cultivator, who was flying at the back of the team, unexpectedly didn't confront the enemy but turned and fled towards the distance. Little did Azure Bamboo know that Guang HuiDaoist had a hidden Third Rank symbol as his trump card. After careful consideration and analysis, Azure Bamboo believed that the power gap between the two sides was too significant, and they were bound to lose. After hearing about the destruction of Green Bamboo Mountain by the Flying Swan Sect, Azure Bamboo initially felt extreme grief and regret. He wanted to rush to the Flying Swan Sect and engage in a life-and-death battle with their cultivators.

However, as time passed, his pain gradually lessened, and his thoughts began to change. With the destruction of Green Bamboo Mountain, he, as the Sect Master who had been devoted to the sect for half of his life, strangely felt a sense of liberation. No longer burdened with the worries of Green Bamboo Mountain's legacy and the painstaking management of the sect, he felt relieved and inexplicably light. Green Bamboo Mountain was gone, but Azure Bamboo was still alive. From that moment on, he decided to live for himself. Why should he invest himself in a battle where defeat was certain? This was not his fight, and he had no reason to be involved.

Azure Bamboo believed he wasn't the primary target of the enemy's pursuit, and if he escaped promptly, he had a good chance of survival. So, without hesitation, he chose to flee at this critical moment, inadvertently ruining Forest Spring Watch's last faint chance of victory.

Seeing Azure Bamboo fleeing, Guang HuiDaoist was infuriated, but he managed to suppress his murderous intent with the last shred of reason. If it weren't for that remaining sanity, he might have immediately chased after Azure Bamboo.

With his focus back on the formidable opponent in front of him, Guang HuiDaoist released a massive amount of true qi to activate the power of the Third Rank symbol. He even used several drops of his own blood to stimulate the talisman further. Cultivators' blood wasn't ordinary; it was a concentration of their life force. Even Foundation Building stage cultivators with strong life force usually possessed only about ten drops of blood. Each drop consumed required a long time to replenish.

Almost sacrificing his life force, Guang HuiDaoist finally managed to unleash most of the power within the talisman. The symbol flew into the air and transformed into a humanoid shadow. This humanoid shadow contained part of Guang ZhiDaoist Master's power and a trace of Divine Sense. After taking form, it possessed about half of Guang ZhiDaoist Master's combat strength.

While half strength might not seem like much, Guang ZhiDaoist Master was a Gold Core Daoist Master. Even half of his strength would be difficult for ordinary Foundation Building late-stage cultivators to contend with. This Third Rank symbol was the most potent among the three left behind by Guang ZhiDaoist Master, and it was not meant to be used unless facing the threat of annihilation.

Once the Third Rank symbol was unleashed, Guang HuiDaoist suffered significant depletion, and his combat strength plummeted. Shocking ThunderSpirit General, who was keenly aware, noticed a tremendous power being released by Guang HuiDaoist.

To maximize the power of this Third Rank symbol, Guang HuiDaoist had almost poured all his true qi into it and even expelled several streams of refined blood to stimulate it. Refined blood was not ordinary blood but a concentration of a cultivator's vital energy, condensed and gathered over time. It was a precious resource, and using it in such large quantities had severe consequences.

Guang HuiDaoist's tactic had caught the attention of Shocking ThunderSpirit General and Deep EarthSpirit General. They exchanged glances, being old comrades who understood each other well. They tacitly cooperated, one attacking from the left and the other from the right, charging towards the humanoid shadow.

Shocking ThunderSpirit General knew that the key to today's battle lay in this humanoid shadow. If it broke into their ranks and initiated a killing spree, the situation would become extremely dangerous. The humanoid shadow not only contained about half of Guang ZhiDaoist Master's power but also a trace of his Divine Sense. Thus, it possessed formidable combat instincts and was not an ordinary puppet with power but no understanding of how to use it.

Facing the formidable Shocking ThunderSpirit General and Deep EarthSpirit General charging at it, the humanoid shadow took the initiative to meet them and engaged in a fierce battle. Shocking ThunderSpirit General and Deep EarthSpirit General, with their extensive combat experience, were even more familiar with the techniques of a Gold Core Daoist Master than Guang ZhiDaoist Master himself. Although they were at a disadvantage in terms of strength, they cooperated seamlessly, preferring to engage in entangling fights to prolong the time.

The sky immediately turned chaotic with the battle scenes happening all around. Guang HuiDaoist, heavily wounded, actively confronted Meng Zhang, and Lin Bailin flew over to assist Guang HuiDaoist in the fight against their opponents.

Meng Zhang's expression became complex as he looked at Lin Bailin. They had a long-standing friendship and understood each other very well. But now, due to their opposing positions, they had to engage in a life-and-death battle. For this old friend whom Meng Zhang greatly admired, the best he could do was to send him on his way as quickly and painlessly as possible.

Meng Zhang wielded the Tangling Silk Soft Sword and summoned the Golden Crow Lantern, going all out without showing any mercy. Similarly, Lin Bailin didn't hold back against Meng Zhang's attacks. He suppressed his complex emotions and unleashed his most potent abilities.

Aunt Jin confronted Guang RuiDaoist, Jin Qigu fought Guang QuanDaoist, Yang Xueyi faced Guang YuanDaoist, and Jin Wengbo battled Lin Shenpo. Each pair engaged in intense and brutal combat in different parts of the battlefield.

In the sky, a chaotic battle ensued, with Shocking ThunderSpirit General and Deep EarthSpirit General using their abundant combat experience to hold off the humanoid shadow. Their opponents had more power, but they relied on coordination and entanglement to prolong the time the humanoid shadow could remain active. Guang ZhiDaoist Master's power stored within the talisman was limited, and once it was exhausted, the humanoid shadow would naturally dissipate.
