CH18; Lot's of talisman

The moment Qin Zhia, Wu Jian, and Han Bei attack Lin Xuan, with killing intent.

Lin Xuan, however, had anticipated such a situation. His sharp eyes flicked with cold calculation as he swiftly reached into his storage bag and pulled out a thick stack of talismans. 

As the trio unleashed their spiritual weapons and techniques—Qin Zhia's deadly silver needles, Wu Jian's ominous shadow blade, and Han Bei's crushing earth fists—Lin Xuan quiqly threw 100's of talismans towards them. The moment the talismans were released, it created a boom sound which covered the whole city central area.

A series of deadly explosions followed, the air thick with the destructive energy radiating from the talismans.

The ground shook violently, sending shockwaves in every direction. The force of the explosions was so immense that the even earth beneath them seemed to buckle and shatter.

Qin Zhia was the first to be caught in the blast. Her beautiful face shocked as the blast hit her, sending her crashing into the ground with bone cracking sound coming from her body.

Her sexy black dress has become dust, revealing her skin covered with blood and injuries, her white boobs can be seen covered with blood Along with her pink nipples which now look damaged, her  pink vagina was also damaged and covered with blood. 

The silver hairpin that once held in her hair was blown away, leaving her hair disheveled. She struggled to rise, her body trembling as she spat out blood, her dark eyes flashing with fury and disbelief, only her storage bag was there as these are made from good material even foundation building attacks won't damage them.

Wu Jian was no better. His clothes were torn apart by the blast which showed his white small rod. Only storage bag was remain around his body.

The force of the explosion lifted him off his feet, throwing him across the building nearby which was also destroyed due to the blast. His once sinister smile was replaced by pain as he tried to regain his footing, blood dripping from all over his body.

Han Bei, the brute with a bloody aura, was thrown back like a cannonball, his massive body slamming into the ground.

His dark red robes, already worn and only leather armor remaining on his body along with a storage bag. Blood came out from multiple wounds, and his once evil expression was now filled with pain and anger.

Han Bei clenched his fist,

Huang Tian, the alchemist at the center of the formation, was not spared from the big blast. The blast reached him even as he stood behind his alchemy furnace.

Huang Tian activated the defensive array inscribed on the furnace, causing it to emit a protective barrier. 

But the tiredness of creating the Blood Soul Pill had taken its toll on him, and he was unable to fully protect himself. 

The shockwave slammed into the barrier, causing him to puke blood and suffer internal injuries due to this attack. 

Though he managed to shield himself from the blast and he fell to the ground because of injuries,  his face was pale, blood coming from his mouth. 

Zhou Ming, sensing the danger, had already taken a step back as the conflict erupted.

His calm expression changed seeing the blast coming towards him, he immediately retreated at fastest Speed. This distance saved him from the blast, but the impact of the explosion was unavoidable. 

The shockwave hit him, causing him to flew away and hit the ground, his back absorbing the impact. His rob has a hole behind his back, his burned back could be seen along with burned ass. Zhou Ming's expression was not good, his eyes narrowing as he surveyed the situation.

Lin Xuan, the mastermind behind the explosion, stood at the center of the destruction. His cold, calculating mind had prepared for this very moment. As the talismans exploded, Lin Xuan activated a defensive artifact of lv 2—a jade amulet that instantly formed a barrier around him. 

The barrier absorbed the impact of the explosion. Even as the ground shook beneath him and the air filled with destructive energy, Lin Xuan remained unmoved, his figure standing tall and unharmed in the midst of destruction. 

His black robe fluttered in the wind, his sharp eyes narrowing as he surveyed the damage inflicted upon his attackers.

As the dust settled, it became clear that Lin Xuan had emerged uninjured. His gaze turned toward the others, their bodies bruised and bloodied. 

The once vast formation, filled with the corpses that had been completely destroyed by the blast, the ground by deep cracks and buildings turned into dust.

His aura increased, no longer suppressed, revealing his true cultivation at the Peak of 9th level of Qi Refining. 

This made the remaining cultivators pause, their eyes filled with fear of death

With the battlefield in ruins and his enemies weakened, Lin Xuan was now the most powerful figure standing. Others' faces were full of fear.

Huang Tian's breaths came in gasps, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth as he glared at Lin Xuan with a mix of disbelief and seething rage. His voice trembled with fury as he spoke, "Lin Xuan… you were hiding your true strength all along!"

Lin Xuan, his expression cold and, didn't bother to reply. The aura surrounding him was obvious.

Huang Tian's face twisted in anger, but he quickly masked it with a forced smile, his voice dripping with false expression. 

"Well, I will forgive you this time. Here, take your pill." His words were filled with the arrogance of someone who still believed his background would protect him.

Zhou Ming, standing at a distance after the blast, nodded in agreement. He, too, believed that Lin Xuan would not dare to make an enemy of them, considering the power and influence behind them.

But Lin Xuan's response was a cold, cruel laugh that echoed across the barren landscape, sending a chill down their spines. "Do you take me for a fool? Why would I settle for one pill when I can have all three?"

Huang Tian's confidence faded in an instant, his eyes widening in fear.

He wanted to warn Lin Xuan about his powerful background,but. Zhou Ming, sensing the danger, tried to run away.

But Lin Xuan was faster. He quickly took out another stack of talismans. Without hesitation, he flicked his wrist, and the talismans shot out in every direction, injured or dead didn't matter as long as the body existed.

"No!" Huang Tian's cry of terror was cut short as the talismans detonated simultaneously. The air was filled with a light, followed by a roar as the explosions ripped through the battlefield. 

The force of the blast was far greater than before, the talismans releasing waves of destructive energy that consumed everything in their path.

Huang Tian was the first to be caught in the blast. His alchemy furnace, which had shielded him earlier, can't be activated as he was out of spiritual energy. Huang Tian's body was engulfed in flames, leaving behind his storage bag. His scream was loud, swallowed by the inferno that reduced him to ash in seconds. Not even his bones remained.

Zhou Ming, who had tried to flee, wasn't fast enough. The talismans chased him down with accuracy, detonating around him in a series of violent blasts. 

The explosions tore through his defenses, and his body turned into ashes. The ground where he had stood moments before was now a smoking crack, the remnants of his existence erased entirely, only a storage bag was left behind.

Wu Jian, Qin Zhia, and Han Bei, already weakened and broken from the first explosion, had no chance. 

The talismans that targeted them this time more powerful unleashed their full fury. The force of the blast was so intense that even the ground beneath them melted, leaving nothing but  earth and faint wisps of smoke even their storage bag was destroyed, and materials inside were lost in void.

Human tian and Zhou ming storage bags manage to survive because they were much better quality then their and it was the first time that they suffered the damage.

When the dust finally settled, the area that had once been a city full of crowds was now a barren wasteland filled with smoke and big Holes. 

All that remained of the fallen cultivators were the storage bag of Huang Tian and Zhou Ming and a few scattered weapons, like sword, alchemy furnace and silver needles and a Armour.

Lin Xuan stood at the center, his expression as cold and calculating as ever.

Lin Xuan quickly moved through the area, his gaze sharp as he collected what remained.

His expression twisted slightly in annoyance as he noticed that three junior brothers and sister storage bags had completely disappeared along with their bodies. "Who knew they used such poor-quality storage bags,"

He muttered, irritation flickering in his eyes. "Those talismans alone cost me 4,000 spiritual stones. Now I've lost whatever was in those bags. Hopefully, I can recover from my Senior brother's storage bag.

With a fast speed, Lin Xuan looked through the debris, gathering the storage bags and any remaining weapons.

He made sure to leave nothing valuable behind, every item was put into his own storage bag.

Satisfied that he had retrieved all he could, Lin Xuan cast one last glance over the city and left, in some other direction than a sect as he can't return back now after killing Senior Brother Hunag Tian and Zhou Ming.
