Chapter 286: Chapter 137: Foundation Establishment Ambush, Treasure Bones Emerge!_2
Lu Changsheng was slightly taken aback by Xiao Xiyue’s decisive actions and strategies in combat.
He hadn’t expected Xiao Xiyue to be so resolute, possessing such fighting techniques.
She didn’t seem like someone who was experiencing her first time outside for training at all.
He couldn’t help thinking to himself that the disciples taught within the Immortal Sects were truly different.
They didn’t just know how to cultivate, in terms of combat techniques, they were completely superior to many ordinary Loose Cultivators.
Furthermore, looking at the Cloud Veil, Tortoise Shell, and Sword Bead, which were obviously of superior and top-grade magic artifacts, she seemed to be very wealthy.
Despite his astonishment, Lu Changsheng didn’t just stand by and do nothing.
He took out a stack of Talismans, all of middle and superior grade, and threw out more than a dozen in one go.
After all, as a Talisman Master, it was only natural for him to carry extra Talismans for self-defense.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh—”
The Talismans emitted a diffuse light, turning into streams of Fire Clouds, Fire Serpents, Ice Spikes, Wind Blades, and Lightning, bursting forth wildly.
“Clang clang clang!”
The stark white Flying Swords struck against the Five-Colored Tortoise Shell, the swords vibrating, and the tide-like Sword Qi roaring tumultuously, as if to shred to pieces anyone it touched, causing faint cracks to appear on the Tortoise Shell.
As for the onslaught of the colorful Sword Beads and Talismans, the young man in the red robe just let out a disdainful sneer.
He lifted his right hand, crystal clear like jade and shimmering with a demonic luster, and directly grasped the Sword Bead.

“Crack, crack…”
The sharp Sword Beads made a teeth-grating ‘crack’ sound against the crystal-like jade palm.
A Murderous Python bursting with sinister Qi leapt from his shoulder, directly neutralizing and shattering Lu Changsheng’s Talismans offensive.
“This is definitely not an ordinary Foundation Building Great Cultivator!”
Seeing this scene, Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He didn’t say much about his own stack of Talisman attacks; it was quite normal for them to be neutralized, being merely middle and superior grade Talismans.
But Xiao Xiyue’s Tortoise Shell and Sword Bead were clearly not simple.
Yet, under the techniques of this young man in the red robe, the Tortoise Shell cracked, and the Sword Bead was even pinched in his hand.
Although the young man’s palm seemed to use some kind of spell, it still made him very alarmed.
He knew that the strength of this young man in the red robe was not that of an ordinary Foundation Building Great Cultivator.
His power far exceeded the Lu Family Ancestor, Chen Family Ancestor, Bai Family Ancestor, and Meng Xiaochan that he had encountered before.
“Hmph.”
Xiao Xiyue’s countenance paled slightly as the two artifacts she summoned were broken, and she let out a muffled groan.
She took out a silver Talisman from her Storage Bag and handed it to Lu Changsheng.
She quickly transmitted her voice, “Lu Daoist, this matter started because of me; he must be tracking me through some kind of technique.”
“This is a Second Rank Escape Talisman. I’ll hold him off for a moment; you can use the Talisman to escape from here,” Xiao Xiyue said urgently.
Practicing the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique helped her keep her mind calm even in the face of various crises.
She knew that the young man in the red robe, a Foundation Building Great Cultivator, was after her.
This kind of encounter was certainly no coincidence.
It was highly likely that the opponent possessed some secret technique that could find her.
Thus, in this situation, it was extremely difficult for her to escape from the hands of a Foundation Building Great Cultivator.
She also didn’t want to get Lu Changsheng involved at this time.
Lu Changsheng did not take the Talisman.
He had such Second Rank Escape Talismans himself.
If he had wanted to escape, he could have used the Talisman to do so during the first opportunity in the gap between their fights.
But faced with this situation, leaving Xiao Xiyue behind and escaping alone was something he found rather difficult to do.
“Sigh, with this kind of nature, I’m really not suited for the Cultivation World, for these times,” he thought to himself.
“However, after tasting both the sweet and the savory, and she being the future mother of my children, I can’t just stand by and do nothing,” Lu Changsheng sighed softly in his heart.
He decided to fight back fiercely and see if he could save Xiao Xiyue.
His boldness wasn’t completely ungrounded. He had a certain confidence.
He felt that if he truly gave it his all, he could take down a Foundation Building enemy.
Though this particular Foundation Builder was somewhat strong.
Moreover, even if he was no match, he had the Life-Substituting Talisman on him to cling to life.
In the blink of an eye, with thoughts flashing through his mind, Lu Changsheng made a decision, his palms subtly retracting into his sleeves.
One hand held a Talisman, the other gripped a Talisman Treasure emitting golden light.
“Hurry up,” Xiao Xiyue pressed, looking at Lu Changsheng with some anxiety.
She urged him to take the Talisman and escape quickly.
“Xiao Daoist, under these circumstances, how could I abandon you and leave?” Lu Changsheng responded with a light chuckle.
“At a time like this, still indulging in romantic sentiment?”
“But make no mistake, you two are doomed not to become lovebirds on the run!” The young man in the red robe’s eyes flashed fiercely as he abruptly exclaimed.
In a pair of deep-set eyes, a crimson light glowed, striking fear into the heart.
The next instant, Lu Changsheng’s Brow Peach Blossom Gu roared furiously.
It felt as if his brain had been hammered by something, his head dizzying, which made him let out a muffled groan.
The pendant artifact he wore on his neck emitted a cool breeze at that moment.
“Pfft!”
Xiao Xiyue, on the other hand, turned deathly pale at the instant, and suddenly spurted a mouthful of fresh blood, clutching her white forehead.
“Huh? You brat can actually withstand my Divine Sense Attack?”
The young man in the red robe was quite surprised seeing this scene.
He never expected that under his Divine Consciousness Secret Technique, Lu Changsheng would remain unscathed, merely grunting.
He knew that ordinary Cultivators affected by his Divine Sense Attack either fell immediately or ended up like Xiao Xiyue.
Additionally, he could tell that Lu Changsheng was not a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
He was likely just an Energy Refining Cultivator.
For a minor Energy Refiner to withstand his Divine Consciousness Secret Technique indicated the possession of some kind of protective treasure for the sea of consciousness.
That made his eyes gleam with greed.
