He never expected things to turn out this way.
In his opinion, this should have been a crushing victory for him.
But now, it had turned into Qin Xuan crushing him instead.
Whether it was close combat or Talismans, he was no match.
Aside from his Realm appearing higher than this kid's, he was inferior in every other aspect.
Could it be.......
Wu Ren's heart stirred.
This kid must have hidden his true Realm; his strength is actually higher than mine, and he's only pretending to be weak to toy with me.
At this thought, Wu Ren was greatly alarmed, glanced at the calm Qin Xuan, and then turned to run.
"Why run? You're a Yuqing Realm Cultivator."
These third-generation scions usually relied on their Family connections to show off, but they ended up deceiving themselves, truly believing that their Family connections were their own abilities.
Although Qin Xuan scoffed, he did not let down his guard.
The opponent was, after all, a strong Cultivator of the Yuqing Realm.
Even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit, let alone when the person in front of him was two major Realms higher.
This gap in Realm made Qin Xuan not dare to be careless in the slightest.
However, even though the opponent's cultivation was strong, Qin Xuan knew he couldn't let him return easily.
Since the opponent came for the Cloud Boat, if he were allowed to return, he might bring a large group of people.
Since this person was not good at close combat, and his Talismans were also suppressed by him.
Although he was a Yuqing Realm Cultivator, Qin Xuan was quite confident in killing him.
"You're courting death!"
Provoked by Qin Xuan, Wu Ren stopped.
He was, after all, a Yuqing Realm Cultivator, and being provoked by Qin Xuan naturally enraged him.
"I was going to let you off, but since you're courting death, I'll fulfill your wish!"
Wu Ren was furious, forcefully pressing his index finger against his forehead, and a line of blood emerged from his forehead.
Wu Ren's index finger touched the bloodline, and a red Talisman appeared in his other palm.
The bloodline flowed into the Talisman, Wu Ren pressed hard, and the fresh blood merged into the Talisman, turning into a Blood Talisman!
"Hoo!"
When the fresh blood surged into the Talisman, Wu Ren was drenched in sweat, almost collapsing from exhaustion.
"Today, I'll send you to your grave!"
The Blood Talisman left his hand, shooting towards Qin Xuan.
"Using essence blood to create a Talisman, this thing is not simple; I'm afraid it can't be dealt with like the previous Talisman!"
Without Han Ye's reminder, Qin Xuan had already realized the uniqueness of this Talisman.
The Blood Talisman surged towards Qin Xuan with an extremely strong bloody Qi.
After the Blood Talisman flew over, Qin Xuan only felt that the Spiritual Qi throughout his body became sluggish, as if it couldn't be mobilized.
Not only that, the air around him seemed to become viscous, and his movements became somewhat slow.
"As expected of a Yuqing Realm Cultivator, the Blood Talisman made from essence blood is so powerful that it even affects the space around you."
It even affected space.
Upon hearing this, Qin Xuan's eyes immediately lit up.
This Talisman was indeed powerful; putting aside other things, a Cultivator who had just entered the Yuqing Realm could actually use such a Talisman to affect space.
"I was already going to let you go, but you're courting death!"
"Heh, it seems you really are just a Profound Earth Realm Cultivator; I almost let you fool me!"
Seeing Qin Xuan standing still, Wu Ren was immediately overjoyed.
The reason he had just thought of retreating was because Qin Xuan had hidden his cultivation; now it seemed the situation was completely different from what he had imagined.
The person in front of him was indeed just a Profound Earth Realm Cultivator.
Thinking of this, Wu Ren clenched his fist, holding hundreds of exploding Talismans in his hand.
"You are now restricted by my Blood Talisman; next, I will let you experience the feeling of these exploding Talismans detonating simultaneously!"
"I want to make you understand what happens when you offend me!"
Wu Ren clenched his fist and threw all the exploding Talismans down towards Qin Xuan.
Hundreds of exploding Talismans floated down like snowflakes.
"Not bad, first use the Blood Talisman to restrict my movements, then use the exploding Talismans to deal with me simultaneously; this kid isn't a complete idiot after all, it's just..."
Looking at the increasingly close Blood Talisman and the growing restrictions around him, a faint smile appeared on Qin Xuan's lips.
"Such methods are a bit too weak against me!"
"Does he really think he can restrict my movements with this Blood Talisman?"
"Boom!"
The Blood Talisman instantly burst.
The deep red blood color spread out like a huge red pot, directly enveloping Qin Xuan below.
As the Blood Talisman expanded, the air around Qin Xuan began to become increasingly viscous.
"Swish!"
Several blood streams separated from the continuously expanding Blood Talisman, and the crimson blood streams condensed together to form several blood-colored chains that bound Qin Xuan.
Clearly, he intended to use this method to completely immobilize Qin Xuan, preventing him from moving.
Looking at the blood-colored chains spreading towards him, Qin Xuan remained calm and unhurried.
"Tear!"
A Taihuang Aura was drawn out by Qin Xuan, and the Taihuang Aura immediately rushed towards the blood-colored chains.
"Clatter!"
The blood-colored chains melted the moment they touched the Taihuang Aura, like snowflakes meeting fire.
That feeling of being confined also instantly disappeared.
Looking at the exploding Talismans raining down from the sky, Qin Xuan instantly vanished from his original spot.
"Eh?"
At this moment, Wu Ren, who was flying in mid-air, noticed a slight abnormality with the Blood Talisman, but due to the Blood Talisman's obstruction, he couldn't clearly see Qin Xuan's situation below.
"There won't be any problems; this is a Blood Talisman made from my essence blood. No matter how powerful this kid is, he won't be able to break free from the Blood Talisman's restraint."
"As long as there's the Blood Talisman's restraint, he won't be able to escape the power generated by these hundreds of exploding Talismans exploding simultaneously!"
"It's a pity, although the Cloud Boat's defense is not weak, it will still suffer some minor damage from such an explosion. No matter, compared to the gains this time, it's enough!"
Wu Ren thought proudly, and as the Blood Talisman rapidly enveloped the area below, a cruel smile appeared on his lips, and he snapped his fingers.
"Explode!"
Hundreds of exploding Talismans detonated simultaneously, engulfing the area below in a massive explosion!
"Pfft!"
Even though it was only a portion of his essence blood, facing such a violent explosion, Wu Ren was still affected by the loss of essence blood.
His already pale face instantly became even paler, and he swayed, almost falling down.
"Hoo!"
Exhaling, Wu Ren straightened himself again.
"At worst, I'll just recuperate for a while after returning; I must get my hands on that Cloud Boat!"
Thinking this, he stared intently below, waiting for the explosion to end.
The commotion caused by hundreds of exploding Talismans detonating simultaneously was truly immense; after more than a dozen breaths, the smoke and dust shrouding the surroundings finally dispersed.
"Why isn't there even a single person?"
Wu Ren looked down in astonishment; he couldn't even see Qin Xuan's corpse there.
"Could it be that he was blown to smithereens by the exploding Talismans? But at least the Cloud Boat should be... Ah!"
Just as he was wondering and pondering, a sudden sharp pain shot through his Dantian!
"Sneak attack, damn it!"
