Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

In other words, at this moment, Xu Zhan has leaped to become the backbone among the many cultivators of the Shen Family.

Seeing this, Shen Yuan pondered briefly, then gently patted his shoulder and said, "Alright, don’t overthink it. Just focus on cultivating with your master."

"Yes!" Xu Zhan responded respectfully.

"Li’Er, let’s go."

Calling Shen Li along, Shen Yuan walked slowly towards the manor at the foot of the mountain.

...

On the Immortal Martial Platform, Shen Wen’an held a sword, looking at the fourth opponent who had just appeared in front of him.

This was also a Fourth Realm Body Cultivator.

However, unlike the previous Tong Qing, this Fourth Realm Body Cultivator in front of him was a dry, skinny old man standing only six feet tall, a head shorter than the average person.

If not for the faint Qi Blood Power emanating from him, his appearance would make it hard for others to associate him with a Body Cultivator.

Shen Wen’an gazed quietly at him, recalling the advice Tong Qing gave before his defeat.

According to Tong Qing, this old man is a completely different kind of Body Cultivator, and Shen Wen’an needs to be extra cautious.

"I am Zhao Yutian, a Fourth Realm Body Cultivator," the short and thin old man said, cupping his hands slightly, after arriving within thirty zhang distance.

As Shen Wen’an was about to return the greeting, he suddenly noticed Zhao Yutian’s figure disappear!

Hmm!?

Feeling secretly startled, his Divine Sense instantly spread out!

Just when he was puzzled about how Zhao Yutian disappeared, he suddenly sensed a strong sense of danger above his head!

Clang!

His hand instinctively swung the Dragon-Slaying Sword!

A crisp sound of metal clashing resonated, but when Shen Wen’an looked up, he found no sign of Zhao Yutian.

Disappeared again?

How is this guy so elusive?

A Body Cultivator, yet not an Immortal Dao Cultivator, able to achieve Qi Concealment Invisibility could only mean one thing.

Speed!

This Zhao Yutian is probably extremely proficient in speed.

No wonder Tong Qing said Zhao Yutian was completely different from him.

In comparison, Tong Qing excelled in defense, possessing immense strength, like a giant fierce beast clad in thick scale armor.

But Zhao Yutian clearly excels at speed, specializes in ambushes, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows.

However, facing him, Shen Wen’an felt it would be easier to deal with Zhao Yutian than Tong Qing.

After all, no matter how fast a Body Cultivator is, it’s no match for the Divine Thought of a Sword Cultivator.

Zhao Yutian merely took advantage of Shen Wen’an’s moment of returning the greeting to seize the initiative, ultimately a rather unscrupulous act.

Having blocked his fatal attack, Shen Wen’an’s mind stirred slightly, and a Three-inch Magical Sword appeared in front of him.

Once the Magic Sword appeared, it didn’t attack immediately.

Shen Wen’an held up his Sword Element Shield, calmly waiting for Zhao Yutian’s next move.

The surrounding air rippled, and faint afterimages faded into various corners of the Immortal Martial Platform.

Zhao Yutian’s speed was so fast that it seemed as though he could appear at several different positions simultaneously.

At this point, other Immortal Dao Cultivators would probably already be troubled beyond measure.

After all, the Techniques of Immortal Dao Cultivators also require a clear target.

But with Zhao Yutian’s speed, unless Immortal Dao Cultivators used large-scale, indiscriminate Technique bombing, they might not even touch the hem of his garment.

Shen Wen’an actually had many ways to swiftly deal with the elusive Zhao Yutian.

However, he suddenly thought that the reason this person’s speed was so fast might be due to cultivating some kind of Body Technique Secret Skill.

In the past, he comprehended the "Tidal Sword Technique" and "Earth Guarding Sword Technique" from Chu Yuanfeng and others, which were Cyan Ruo Sword House’s legacies. He dared not pass them to his family privately, for fear of displeasing the Cyan Ruo Sword House.

But the person before him was different.

If he could comprehend a bit of the Body Technique Secret Skill during this duel, it would provide the family cultivators with an additional path to enhance their strength.

Moreover, for the sake of this Body Technique Secret Skill, he was no longer planning to conserve the consumption of Sword Element Power.

As for the last opponent at the Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm, even if 90% of his Sword Element Power was depleted, he was confident in defeating that opponent.

His body was covered by the Sword Element Shield as his Divine Thought extended to the limit.

With the aid of the Wisdom Sword, he could clearly see Zhao Yutian’s movements.

He felt the operation method of the Body Technique.

Shen Wen’an focused completely, scrutinizing Zhao Yutian’s every move, branding each one into his Sea of Consciousness, simulating them repeatedly.

On Zhao Yutian’s side, despite relying on the Body Technique Secret Skill to move at high speed, he could always sense a faint Divine Thought locked onto him.

Because of this, he dared not slacken at all, continuously operating the Secret Skill, maintaining rapid movement while seeking an opportunity for a decisive strike.

"A cultivator’s Spiritual Power Shield consumes a great deal of Spiritual Power."

"This old man doesn’t believe that this young lad, after three fights, can keep his Spiritual Power going."

Zhao Yutian contemplated inwardly, fixating on the Sword Element Shield surrounding Shen Wen’an.

He had already decided that as soon as Shen Wen’an’s Sword Element Shield showed signs of weakening, he would strike immediately, launching a thunderous blow!

The two sides remained in a deadlock like this, outside the Immortal Martial Platform, the cultivators betting on Shen Wen’an to lose were already overjoyed.

In their view, there was still one Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm challenger among the five remaining who hadn’t yet appeared.

If Shen Wen’an expended a significant amount of Sword Element Power in this fight with the fourth challenger, he would hardly have any power left to resist when the fifth came forward.

Many spectators were silently praying for Zhao Yutian, cheering him on, hoping he would exhaust Shen Wen’an’s Sword Element Power, ideally defeating Shen Yuan directly.

"No, it should be like this..."

On the Immortal Martial Platform, in Shen Wen’an’s Sea of Consciousness, a figure rapidly changed forms and steps.
