A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 280

Chapter 280 Wu Li VS Nangong Jun

“Just an unknown nobody,” Wu Li said with a calm expression. The next second, with a wave of his large hand, 18,000 Grade Seven Golden Thunder Flying Swords surged under his control, charging toward Nangong Jun for attack.

Upon seeing this, Nangong Jun snorted coldly and said, “Kid, don’t think that just because you have more Immortal Artifacts, you can do whatever you want. Let me tell you today—power in cultivation is what truly matters!”

At that moment, a bold thought flashed in Nangong Jun’s mind—if he could slay Wu Li, he would be able to seize all 18,000 of these Immortal Venerable-grade weapons as his own.

That was 18,000 Immortal Artifacts! If he could just resell them, he could earn an enormous amount of Immortal Crystals. With such abundant resources, he might even break through to become an Immortal Emperor.

Once he reached the Immortal Emperor stage, even if his opponent’s backers came for revenge, he would have the strength to resist.

With this thought in mind, Nangong Jun acted without hesitation. In an instant, he appeared right before Wu Li and reached out, intending to crush Wu Li with a single palm.

But he was blocked by a thousand Golden Thunder Flying Swords.

“What!” Nangong Jun’s expression turned incredulous. He clearly hadn’t expected such a quick reaction, and that even his peak Immortal Venerable attack could be blocked.

Seeing this, Wu Li couldn’t help but smile mockingly. At the moment the Golden Thunder Flying Sword formation activated, a thousand swords shielded him in front. Not to mention Immortal Venerables, even an Immortal Emperor wouldn’t dare claim they could kill him in one strike.

As Nangong Jun suddenly appeared before Wu Li, Qin Wan’s heart skipped a beat, but when she saw the Golden Thunder Flying Swords block the attack, she let out a sigh of relief.

The next moment, Nangong Jun fled in a mess, chased by 16,000 Golden Thunder Flying Swords. Although Wu Li was only at the Initial Stage Great Luo Golden Immortal, the Golden Thunder Flying Sword was a solid Grade Seven Immortal Artifact. Even though Nangong Jun was a peak Immortal Venerable, he couldn’t afford to underestimate it.

“Damn it! I didn’t expect to be pushed to this point by someone at the Initial Stage Great Luo Golden Immortal!” Nangong Jun snarled. Swinging his great blade, he deflected the incoming Golden Thunder Flying Swords, but the sheer number overwhelmed him. The swords he knocked away instantly flew back—an endless loop. If this continued, Nangong Jun wouldn’t last long.

But Nangong Jun also knew that an attack at this level probably wouldn’t last long for Wu Li either. After all, a Great Luo Golden Immortal competing in spiritual power against an Immortal Venerable? That was just asking for death.

Qin Wan shared this thought and looked at Wu Li with a face full of worry.

After seeing the situation with Wu Li, both Nangong Jun and Qin Wan couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

“Damn!”

Wu Li’s face was incredibly pale, clearly on the verge of exhausting his Immortal energy. After all, controlling such a powerful killing formation had almost completely drained him in an instant.

But in the next moment, Wu Li waved his large hand and pulled out a handful of Grade Seven Immortal Energy Pills, swallowing them all at once into his body.

“You brat, I didn’t expect you to be courting death by consuming so many Grade Seven pills! Even my true self wouldn’t dare do that. Next, you’ll just explode from the overdose!” Nangong Jun laughed as he looked at Wu Li.

But Wu Li sneered coldly and said, “Oh really? If that’s the case, I won’t let you enjoy the show. Just wait and see!”

Nangong Jun was right to say this. If it were an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal, let alone swallowing so many pills, even taking just one would cause their body to explode instantly. Those pills were meant to restore Immortal Venerables’ energy.

But Wu Li was no ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal. His Spacetime Divine Body made his foundation extraordinarily deep, with Immortal energy reserves hundreds of times greater than a normal Initial Stage Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Moreover, Wu Li was currently controlling the Golden Thunder Flying Sword formation, which made him act like a conduit—he wasn’t using his own Immortal energy to control the formation but rather the power supplied by the Grade Seven pills he had just swallowed.

So when half an hour passed and Wu Li showed no signs of strain, Nangong Jun’s heart sank.

If this continued, he would be the one to die.

Realizing this, Nangong Jun no longer hesitated. With a wave of his great hand, he instantly condensed three clones of himself, each possessing 80% of his true strength.

“This is… the Three Pure Ones Transformation Technique?” Wu Li said with some surprise—he hadn’t expected Nangong Jun to still master such an Immortal Art.

But if Nangong Jun had been pushed to this point, it was likely that he was truly out of options.

After creating the three clones, Nangong Jun didn’t hesitate for a moment. He ordered the clones to block most of the Golden Thunder Flying Swords while he charged directly at Wu Li.

Given the current situation, the only way to stop the Golden Thunder Flying Sword formation was to first kill Wu Li. Otherwise, Nangong Jun’s Immortal energy would be completely drained by the formation, and that would mean his own demise.

Seeing Nangong Jun rush toward him, Wu Li showed no surprise on his face. After all, if it were him, he would also choose to strike first in such a situation.

“However, this won’t change your fate.”

Wu Li shook his head lightly, but he didn’t expect that Nangong Jun wasn’t coming at him.

When Nangong Jun reached Wu Li’s side, he didn’t attack him. Instead, he turned and launched an assault toward the other direction, aiming straight at Qin Wan.

“Judging from the current situation, it’s hard to make any effective progress against Wu Li. Plus, the Three Pure Ones Transformation Technique drained nearly half of my Immortal energy. If I keep focusing on Wu Li, the outcome won’t change.”

“But if I can capture Wan’er first, then maybe I can force Wu Li to surrender.”

Nangong Jun thought silently to himself. From the moment he started using the Three Pure Ones Transformation Technique, his target had shifted from Wu Li to Qin Wan.

At this moment, Qin Wan clearly did not expect Nangong Jun to attack her. When she saw Nangong Jun’s hand rapidly growing larger in her vision, her expression changed involuntarily.

But in the next second, countless golden lights flashed, and suddenly a thousand Golden Thunder Flying Swords appeared in front of Qin Wan, forming a protective barrier around her.

“What! When did this happen?”

Nangong Jun was stunned when he saw the thousand Golden Thunder Flying Swords shielding Qin Wan. Normally, Wu Li’s primary objective should have been to kill Nangong Jun first. Why then did he leave a thousand Golden Thunder Flying Swords behind to protect Qin Wan?
