Immortal after a Hundred Reincarnations

By the time Xu Lei and Jingchun noticed, the two mortals were already dead.

Then, Mei Ying kicked over the iron-sheet boat, staging it to look like the two mortals had died when their boat capsized in the marsh.

They probably didn’t hunt in this area often.

Otherwise, these villagers wouldn’t have dared to come here.

They must have just happened upon them while out and decided to strike on a whim.

Xu Lei and Jingchun didn’t say anything.

This was the cruelty of the world.

Although the two were Cultivators, they weren’t saviors.

They couldn’t save everyone.

Then, the two Enchantresses began to approach Xu Lei’s position.

Along the way, they moved stealthily, remaining vigilant, and called out using their power.

Xu Lei mimicked the voice of the man with the broken arm and replied a few times.

This was because Xu Lei was wearing the Jade Pendant that had once belonged to Wei Qingning, which could alter the wearer’s voice.

Thus, the two Enchantresses didn’t suspect anything was wrong.

They drew closer again.

For now, only these two Enchantresses had appeared.

The strongest of them, the Male Enchantress Mei Xiong, was nowhere to be seen.

Originally, even though Xu Lei and Jingchun were lying in wait, they hadn’t been dead set on attacking.

But now that it was just the two of them, Xu Lei naturally told Jingchun about their approximate strength.

And based on Jingchun’s self-assessment, she said she was confident she could pull off a sneak attack.

That’s why they were taking action now.

And soon, Jingchun made her move.

Xu Lei didn’t know what specific Dharma Gate she had activated.

But in any case, her Flying Swords became incredibly ferocious.

Two Flying Swords!

Runes and Dharma Seals, formed from Magical Power, flowed and condensed upon their blades!

They transformed into two streaks of golden light!

They shot forward with a piercing whistle, aiming to kill the two Enchantresses.

Even though the two Enchantresses did their best to dodge...

...they still failed to evade the attack completely.

The two streaks of golden light pierced through them.

Two blood-curdling screams rang out.

Mei Li and Mei Ying were drenched in blood, already heavily injured.

Their color-changing abilities completely vanished.

Their true forms were revealed.

But they weren’t dead yet.

Screaming, they dove beneath the marsh, trying to traverse the murky depths and escape back to the heart of the Eastern Wilderness Marsh.

"Kill them!"

Just then, Jingchun leaped onto her Flying Sword and took to the air, shouting as she did.

She was calling for Xu Lei to attack with her.

The two Enchantresses were now fleeing in separate directions beneath the marsh.

Xu Lei didn’t wait for Jingchun’s call to take flight. In fact, the moment she spoke, he had already leaped onto his Locust Leaf Flying Ship and risen into the air.

He hovered above the marsh.

Xu Lei held the black alms bowl in one hand, shining its light downward.

At the mouth of the black alms bowl, a Daoist Talisman swirled with energy.

Jingchun had given him this Talisman.

She had said that once she injured the two Enchantresses, the aura she left on them wouldn’t fade away quickly.

Based on this, Xu Lei could sense their locations.

Meanwhile, with his other hand, Xu Lei activated his Lotus Drill, which spun ceaselessly.

"Die!"

Then, Xu Lei swung his hand fiercely.

The Lotus Drill plunged beneath the marsh.

PSHH!

The sound of something being pierced rang out.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

A rapid series of muffled impacts echoed out.

It was Mei Ying, under the marsh, resisting Xu Lei’s attack.

That’s right. The one Xu Lei was pursuing was Mei Ying, the stronger of the two—the stout, tall female Enchantress.

Jingchun, on the other hand, was hunting the thin, tall female Enchantress, Mei Li.

According to Jingchun, both had been heavily wounded by her sneak attack.

So, Xu Lei and Jingchun each pursued whichever one was closer.

"Ahhh!"

Soon after, a wretched scream erupted from beneath the marsh.

"Rise!"

Xu Lei let out a fierce, low roar.

He surged his Magical Power.

BAM.

The surface of the marsh exploded.

A figure shot into the air.

It was Mei Ying, her body already pierced by Xu Lei’s Lotus Drill.

The Lotus Drill had already transformed into the Lotus Hand.

It violently yanked her entire body upward.

She tried to dispel the Lotus Hand.

But without the protection of the marsh...

...her body was instantly bathed in the golden light from the black alms bowl.

The light seared her skin.

"You... damn you!"

Mei Ying’s eyes filled with unwillingness to accept her fate.

She stared at the figure of Xu Lei, standing atop his Locust Leaf Flying Ship.

For a moment, she couldn’t tell if this was the same person they had hacked into mincemeat back then...

...or that person’s twin brother.

Because Xu Lei’s appearance now, and the way he stood on the Locust Leaf Flying Ship, looked very similar to how he did back then.

But back then, that person’s arm had gone limp from a single blow, and he could only flee miserably like a beaten dog.

Now, however, she was in Xu Lei’s grasp, unable to break free, unable to escape.

After all, quite a few years had passed since then.

The Cultivation speed of Demons is relatively slow.

A human’s Cultivation speed is much faster than a Demon’s.

So, Mei Ying’s strength had barely improved over the years.

Although she had certainly been practicing Cultivation, whatever little Cultivation she had accumulated...

...had long been exhausted during her resistance within the previous Array and the great battle.

In any case, compared to before, she had hardly grown any stronger.

She even felt weaker.

Of course, Xu Lei couldn’t tell if Mei Ying truly hadn’t become stronger, or if she just seemed weak because she had been heavily wounded by Jingchun.

Mei Ying was clearly very resentful.

After all, even though her strength hadn’t grown much over the years...

...the current Xu Lei was merely a Tier Five existence in the Bodhisattva Core Realm, the Second Realm of the Middle Three Realms.

Under normal circumstances, in a one-on-one fight...

...she didn’t believe she would die at Xu Lei’s hands.

But she had been heavily wounded first.

She was no match for the current Xu Lei.

"Just die!"

At that, Xu Lei roared again.

The black alms bowl erupted with light.
