Chapter 521: Injured

Seeing this yellow crescent blade with astonishing power rushing directly toward Song Song Qingming, Jin Wu Ziyuan's expression on the side changed. While loudly reminding Song Song Qingming, he took the initiative to sacrifice one of his own defensive magic treasures and arrived in front of Song Song Qingming.

Song Song Qingming, who had already discovered Ma Ma Hongshan's move, also frowned. He controlled his own natal magic treasure, the "Five-Colored Divine Light Mirror," to turn into a large golden mirror to protect himself in front.

The talisman used by Ma Ma Hongshan was a third-tier mid-grade talisman left behind by a previous head of the Ma family and treasured for hundreds of years. It was also Ma Ma Hongshan's greatest trump card.

The power of this talisman was quite extraordinary. If used well, it was enough to temporarily force back a Golden Core late-stage cultivator with profound cultivation. The reason Ma Ma Hongshan chose to use it on Song Song Qingming, who had a lower cultivation, was to see if he could heavily injure his opponent in one blow and break the stalemate before him.

This crescent light blade encountered Jin Wu Ziyuan's defensive magic treasure in mid-air. To the somewhat surprised eyes of the two, it quickly knocked Jin Wu Ziyuan's magic treasure away, and its power did not diminish much, continuing to press directly toward Song Song Qingming.

Seeing this, Song Song Qingming was also startled and hurriedly took out a third-tier low-grade defensive talisman, desperately injecting his magic power into it.

The crescent light blade arrived in front of Song Song Qingming in just a moment. Although the "Five-Colored Divine Light Mirror" shone brightly under Song Song Qingming's urging, wanting to desperately block this blow, it only blocked it slightly before being pierced by the crescent light blade, leaving a large hole in the mirror's surface.

Fortunately, at this moment, the defensive talisman in Song Song Qingming's hand had already been activated, quickly turning into a green barrier that blocked in front of Song Song Qingming, successfully intercepting this crescent light blade whose power had already been halved.

Having just resisted this blow from Ma Ma Hongshan and still standing in place with lingering fear, Song Song Qingming steadied his figure, and a trace of blood had already overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Junior Brother Song, are you alright?" Seeing that Song Song Qingming seemed to be injured, Jin Wu Ziyuan glanced at the two Ma family members who had taken the opportunity to bypass them and head west. After hesitating for a moment, he still approached Song Song Qingming and expressed concern about his injuries.

This kind of large flying ship built with a large amount of materials, because it needs to frequently shuttle through places infested with demonic beasts, is generally installed with a small second-tier top-grade formation. However, facing the full-force attack of a Golden Core cultivator, it can only delay them for a moment at most.

Ma Ma Hongshan's only trump card had already been used on Song Song Qingming. Now, facing the obstruction of Zhao Zhao Menglian, whose cultivation was higher than his, the two Ma family members had no other way and could only watch helplessly as Chen Chen Xuanxin broke through the defensive formation of the first flying ship.

At this moment, these two large flying ships of the Nine Origin Sect, although still relying on the formations installed on the flying ships to resist the attacks of Chen Chen Xuanxin and Zhao Zhao Menglian, were all already somewhat severely damaged and in a precarious situation.

After putting away the somewhat damaged "Five-Colored Divine Light Mirror" in front of him, Song Song Qingming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and nodded slightly to Jin Wu Ziyuan, indicating that he was fine. After taking a healing elixir, the two quickly boarded the flying ship again and pursued toward the west together.

For Song Song Qingming, this was not a serious injury. It was just that in the subsequent battle, his natal magic treasure would be difficult to use, and Song Song Qingming's combat effectiveness would be slightly affected.

Seeing this, the two Ma family members hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to stop the other side from continuing to attack the flying ship. Zhao Zhao Menglian on the side saw the two Ma family members rushing over aggressively and could only give up on the large flying ship in front of her, turning around to intercept the two Ma family members.

Ma Ma Hongshan, with Ma Fairy Qiudie, pursued toward the west for several more hours before finally seeing Chen Chen Xuanxin and the other, who were attacking the Nine Origin Sect's large flying ship, ahead.

After Zhao Zhao Menglian came out of seclusion this time, her cultivation had reached a higher level, breaking through to the sixth layer of the Golden Core stage. She stepped forward alone and easily intercepted Ma Ma Hongshan and Ma Fairy Qiudie.

Facing a Golden Core mid-stage cultivator like Chen Chen Xuanxin, even if there were hundreds of Qi Refining cultivators and a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators on the flying ship, it was impossible for them to be Chen Chen Xuanxin's opponents if they joined forces.

The natal magic treasure of a Golden Core cultivator, as long as it is not completely damaged during battle, can generally be slowly repaired during daily cultivation. Seeing that the damage to the "Five-Colored Divine Light Mirror" was somewhat severe, Song Song Qingming did not pay too much attention to it and did not withdraw from the battle because of it, still choosing to go and pursue the two Ma family members with Jin Wu Ziyuan.

The third-tier mid-grade talisman Ma Ma Hongshan used against Song Song Qingming had not injured his physical body just now. The reason Song Song Qingming was injured was actually because his natal magic treasure, the "Five-Colored Divine Light Mirror," which was connected to his essence blood, had been damaged.

Seeing the flying ship formation broken, the many Ma family cultivators on it also showed expressions of despair. Some Foundation Establishment cultivators with higher cultivation also immediately abandoned the flying ship and began to scatter and flee on their flying swords.

Qi Refining cultivators with lower cultivation cannot fly with magic tools. At such an altitude of several hundred meters, once they leave the flying ship and fall, even if they are not killed on the spot, they will definitely be severely injured.

In such a desolate mountain and wild ridge full of crises everywhere, an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator trapped here will also find it difficult to survive.

Except for a portion of Qi Refining cultivators who were forced to choose to jump directly off the flying ship, hundreds of cultivators on this flying ship of the Nine Origin Sect, whether those who wanted to escape or those who stayed on the flying ship, most of them eventually died under Chen Chen Xuanxin's sword.

Only two Foundation Establishment cultivators who ran fast managed to dodge Chen Chen Xuanxin's pursuit when they scattered and fled, and they were lucky enough to save their lives.

Watching Chen Chen Xuanxin ruthlessly slaughter the Ma family cultivators on the flying ship, Ma Ma Hongshan and Ma Fairy Qiudie were both filled with grief and indignation, yet somewhat helpless.

Just as Chen Chen Xuanxin was killing the many Ma family cultivators on the flying ship, two streaks of spiritual light suddenly lit up in the sky; it was Song Song Qingming and Jin Wu Ziyuan who had already pursued them.

Ma Ma Hongshan, who was in grief and indignation, seeing that the two of them were about to be surrounded by the Xiaoyao Sect group again, hurriedly put away the grief in his heart, sent a secret voice transmission to Ma Fairy Qiudie beside him, and the two immediately gave up on rescuing the Ma family cultivators on the flying ship ahead and turned to flee to the side.

"Ma Ma Hongshan, let's see where you can run to!" Jin Wu Ziyuan, who had already pursued nearby, had not yet arrived, but a roar with a bit of magic power had already reached the ears of the two Ma family members.

This "Heart-Shaking Technique" was also a secret technique that Jin Wu Ziyuan had practiced for many years. When facing an enemy, by transmitting magic power through sound, it could shock the opponent's mind for a short time and stop the opponent's actions.

Ma Ma Hongshan's cultivation was better, and he was not greatly affected, only slightly stunned for a moment before recovering. Ma Fairy Qiudie on the side, whose cultivation was lower, did not react so quickly and stood blankly in place until Ma Ma Hongshan transmitted a reminder, and then Ma Fairy Qiudie woke up.

Ma Fairy Qiudie, who had woken up, wanted to continue fleeing, but did not want a red ribbon to suddenly appear under her feet, directly entangling one of her thighs. Accompanied by a sound of surprise, Ma Fairy Qiudie was left in place again.

The one controlling this ribbon magic treasure was Zhao Zhao Menglian, who had pursued them a step earlier. Her cultivation was even higher than Ma Ma Hongshan's, and both her escape speed and magic power were stronger than the opponent's. With the help of Jin Wu Ziyuan's "Heart-Shaking Technique," she quickly caught up and entangled Ma Fairy Qiudie.

Seeing this, Ma Ma Hongshan could only turn back and hurriedly step forward, wanting to help Ma Fairy Qiudie out of the siege. This time, the two Ma family members failed to escape successfully again and were entangled by Zhao Zhao Menglian. Soon, Song Song Qingming and Jin Wu Ziyuan also surrounded them and joined the battle.

In the previous battle, the two Ma family members joined forces and were somewhat unable to defeat Song Song Qingming and Jin Wu Ziyuan. Now that there was an extra Zhao Zhao Menglian with higher cultivation and strength on the battlefield, the battle immediately tilted toward the Xiaoyao Sect side.

Because Song Song Qingming's natal magic treasure was damaged in the previous battle, affecting some of his combat effectiveness, and he did not know if Ma Ma Hongshan still had any trump cards like third-tier mid-grade talismans, for this time he only contained Ma Fairy Qiudie on the side and tried his best to stay away from Ma Ma Hongshan, leaving him to Jin Wu Ziyuan and the other.

After the few fought for a while, the pressure on Ma Ma Hongshan and his companion became greater and greater, and they still did not see anyone else from the Nine Origin Sect coming to help, so a trace of despair could not help but rise in their hearts.

Looking at Chen Chen Xuanxin not far away, who had already slaughtered the low-tier Ma family cultivators on the flying ship and stood up to pursue the other large flying ship of the Nine Origin Sect that had just fled, Ma Ma Hongshan, who was already powerless to stop these, could not help but regret his original decision in his heart.

"Could it be that I really made the wrong choice and buried the future of the family?" After Ma Ma Hongshan asked himself this in his heart, he looked at Ma Fairy Qiudie on the side, and silently made a decision again.

"Fairy Qiudie, don't get entangled in the battle. You hurry and leave. There are many important spiritual items of the family in this storage bag. You take it first. I will buy you time later. You go first, and I will follow." After Ma Ma Hongshan finished speaking, he secretly threw a gray storage bag to Ma Fairy Qiudie on the side.

After Ma Fairy Qiudie put away the storage bag, Ma Ma Hongshan used a secret technique again, spitting a mouthful of essence blood onto his natal magic treasure, and repeating the old trick, summoning a huge red bird again.

As soon as the red bird appeared, it spat out a sea of fire with huge power directly toward Ma Ma Hongshan's side, shrouding the Xiaoyao Sect group who were besieging them and Ma Ma Hongshan himself in the flames.

This magic spell did not distinguish between friend and foe. Whether it was Ma Ma Hongshan himself or the three from the Xiaoyao Sect, facing such flames, they could only choose to retreat for the time being.

Taking this opportunity, Ma Fairy Qiudie immediately held an "Ice Heart Talisman" that had been prepared long ago, quickly escaped from the sea of fire, and turned directly to head north.

"Hmph! Still want to run? Where are you going!"

Song Song Qingming and Jin Wu Ziyuan, who had just retreated, wanted to pursue Ma Fairy Qiudie, but did not want to be forcibly blocked by the huge red bird controlled by Ma Ma Hongshan on the side.
