Cultivation: I Have a Golden Talisman

Chapter 327: Chapter 81: Golden Seal Jade Tower, Immortal Friends and Vicious Guests

Even so, the expressions of the guests from Divine Pillar Immortal City changed, and many frowned.

Yuan Wanderer chuckled. "These five apes are wild and untamed, unused to restraint. They came here with the express purpose of admiring your Immortal Sect. Please forgive them for their minor offense just now."

His gaze swept over the Golden Seal, a flicker of greed flashing through his eyes before vanishing. Then, with a relaxed air, he said, "Once we arrive at your esteemed sect, I will naturally keep them under strict control and not let them cause any trouble. Your sect has a long and storied history, with experts as numerous as the clouds. Perhaps you could help me tame their fiery spirits a bit."

Fang Cheng said coolly, "I’m afraid that won’t be happening. You have already disturbed my sect’s honored guests, and I take great offense to that. Please, return to wherever you came from."

A fierce look appeared on Yuan Wanderer’s face. "And what if I insist on forcing my way in?"

Fang Cheng flicked the dust from his sleeve and scoffed, "You’re welcome to try."

Yuan Wanderer roared with laughter. With a flick of his wide sleeve, a streak of white light, like a bolt of pure silk, shot straight for Fang Cheng’s face.

"Must you force me to kill?"

Fang Cheng murmured. A pitch-black Demonic Light manifested before him, deflecting the white beam with a slight shimmer. Within the light was a jade ruler.

Yuan Wanderer was shocked and instantly shot back a thousand feet.

He let out a sharp cry. The five Giant Apes behind him leaped into the air, surrounding the Golden Seal. They roared in unison as their auras exploded, surging toward the heavens before coalescing into an Array.

Yuan Wanderer stood high in the sky. Aided by the Array the five Giant Apes had formed, his body was bathed in an effulgence of golden fire, making him as radiant and magnificent as a great sun hanging in the sky.

He made a single gesture with his hand. In an instant, endless celestial fire filled the air. The flames converged, forming a colossal, resplendent hand of golden fire that smashed down toward the Golden Seal.

Fang Cheng watched the hand descend, his expression unchanging. Suddenly, he smiled. "So, you’re a Cultivator from the Flame God Palace."

Without any visible movement from him, hundreds of sharp sword-lights suddenly erupted from the Golden Seal. They crisscrossed the sky in a flurry of strikes, tearing the colossal hand of golden fire into nothing but scattered motes of Spiritual Qi.

But that wasn’t all. The sword-lights flashed again, and Cen San Niang and the others felt as if a vast Nether Sea had suddenly materialized in the sky, its boundless waves made of surging sword-light.

Yuan Wanderer felt a sky full of murderous sword-light bearing down on him. He had already witnessed its terrifying sharpness and knew he could not evade it. His only option was to meet it head-on.

Aided by the Five-Ape Array, his Magical Power was approaching the level of the Life Soul Realm.

But to his dismay, the Magical Power of the Yinluo Cultivator before him was even greater than he had anticipated.

’Just how vast is his Qi Sea?!’

Yuan Wanderer had no time for further thought. The aura around him erupted, and he transformed into a dazzling golden sun, radiating an immeasurable brilliance. Two rays of red and gold light eclipsed the very colors of the world as he, with a deafening ROAR, plunged into the sword-light, which was like a vast Nether Sea.

In an instant, the Nether Sea and the celestial fire crashed into each other.

The clash of their Magical Power sent a tremor through heaven and earth, raising massive waves over a hundred feet high in the Abyssal Marsh that crashed upon the shore.

Before the Jade Tower, the expressions of the guests from Divine Pillar Immortal City and the host of True Disciples changed drastically.

They watched as the great golden sun suddenly shattered into a shower of golden sparks, hurtling backward.

The sea of sword-light dissipated, then coalesced, reforming into a single, enigmatic Flying Sword.

Yuan Wanderer’s figure emerged from the golden flames. All arrogance had vanished from his expression, replaced by shock and a hint of rueful awe.

’The Yinluo Sect has produced first Sun Fuguo, and now this genius. This is truly a disaster for the Flame God Palace.’

’He had come to the Abyssal Marsh to look for opportunities. When he saw Fang Cheng use a Third-tier Magical Artifact just for show, he’d gotten greedy. He had wanted to snatch the treasure and humiliate the Yinluo Sect in the process.’

’Who knew he’d end up running into an iron plate!’

’This Fang Cheng’s power was even greater than the rumors suggested.’

Yuan Wanderer decided to retreat. The Spell in his hands changed, and fiery light erupted from the five Giant Apes. In unison, they exhaled a single breath toward the Golden Seal.

Instantly, as if the Earth Fire itself was erupting, countless streams of molten, golden flame appeared and swirled toward the Golden Seal!

An astonishing heat filled the sky, as if to sear the very void.

But Fang Cheng calmly summoned a Golden Grand Bell, which let out a deafening CLANG that echoed outward.

It was like the sky itself was collapsing. On the Golden Seal, the spectators stumbled, and a few with weaker Cultivation were even knocked to the ground by the shockwave.

The swirling golden fire in the sky detonated into a shower of what appeared to be Talismans, their power instantly nullified as they dissipated.

Amidst the chaos, a faint golden gleam shot past like a lightning bolt.

A sense of mortal danger welled in Yuan Wanderer’s heart. He was just about to execute the Flame God Palace’s Fire Crow Escape Technique when a golden rope wrapped tightly around him.

「The next moment.」

A sword-light flashed nonchalantly across the sky, severing the old man’s head from his shoulders.

Yuan Wanderer’s eyes were wide with disbelief. Utterly powerless to resist, he died on the spot.

Seeing this, the five Giant Apes roared in fury and charged madly toward Fang Cheng.

The Golden Grand Bell instantly swelled to a hundred feet tall and descended, trapping the five Giant Apes beneath it!

Inside the bell, a massive Golden Bead struck the inner wall. An incredibly resonant sound rang out—CLANG! The five Giant Apes shrieked in unison as their bodies cracked and crumbled, turning to ash!

After the tolling faded, the bell shrank back to its normal size, flew to Fang Cheng’s side, and was put away with a wave of his sleeve.

He used a beam of sword-light to retrieve Yuan Wanderer’s storage bag. As for the body, it was enveloped by a strange, pitch-black Demonic Light and slowly refined into nothingness.

Such swift and ruthless methods had left the guests before the Jade Tower completely stupefied.

From start to finish, Fang Cheng had not moved a single step from his spot in front of the tower.

And just like that, an expert with power comparable to the Peak of Life Talisman was dead.

Fang Cheng turned and looked at Cen San Niang. "Third Master Cen," he said, "my apologies for startling you all."
