Chapter 193: The Six Golden Dan Cultivators

They collided head-on, closing the distance to nearly a hundred zhang in the blink of an eye.
The elders of Taiyi Gate were well aware of the pale green aurora that Su Che had taken on. After all, Aurora Island was only a little over twenty thousand li away from Taiyi Gate.
“Seeking death on your own… truly…”
An elder with eight-shaped eyebrows curled his lips into a sinister smile. In an instant, he cast a earth-based defensive spell, Diamond Wall, dozens of zhang ahead.
A thick diamond wall, over ten zhang high, suddenly appeared in Su Che’s path.
The Diamond Wall was formed from earth essence, not real stone, yet it was far more durable than the hardest stone walls in the world.
The elder with eight-shaped eyebrows knew that using the Aurora Talisman at the Foundation Establishment stage was fast, but it allowed only straight-line flight, with no way to stop.
“If you can’t stop, I’ll give you a hand.”
Su Che cursed inwardly but could only control his flying sword to attack the wall, following closely behind as he rushed headfirst into it.
Boom!
The massive impact didn’t harm Su Che, but the pale green aurora surrounding him vanished entirely, losing all its effect.
The ten-zhang-thick Diamond Wall shattered, and Su Che suddenly stopped mid-air.
“I can’t get through…”
Su Che sighed. In the distance, he could faintly see the Tianxuan Mountain Range, towering like a celestial cliff.
Home was right ahead, but he couldn’t reach it…
Then there was only one option: fight to the death.
A disciple of Tianxuan Sect in the later stages of Foundation Establishment stood before his home, unable to return, surrounded by five Golden Dan cultivators.
No—six. The middle-stage Golden Dan cultivator from behind had also caught up.
One middle-stage Golden Dan and five early-stage Golden Dan cultivators—how could he possibly fight against such a force?
Su Che knew that no matter how powerful his two divine abilities were, today was a certain loss.
“At all costs, I must not be captured alive. Even if I die in battle, I’ll take one or two with me.”
With a grim expression, Su Che took out the Witch Clan battle axe again. His other attack methods couldn’t break through the defenses of Golden Dan cultivators. He hoped the drop of Witch Clan essence in his right heart chamber could once again prove effective, creating a miracle for him.
At this moment, what Su Che needed most was a miracle!
“Su Che, surrender, and I’ll spare your life!”
The middle-stage Golden Dan old man behind him shouted sternly. After all, according to the orders of Supreme Hao Yuan, this boy had to be captured alive—under no circumstances allowed to die.

“Catch your grandmother!”
Su Che cursed loudly, with blue light flashing between his brows.
Soul Seizure!
His target was a cultivator in the early Golden Core stage right in front of him.
He would never give up until the last moment!
Buzz…
The power of Soul Seizure after advancing was indeed formidable. Despite the Golden Core elder’s various defenses, his vital spirit was shaken by the power of Soul Seizure. His body swayed as he was about to fall…
“Hun!”
However, an elder beside him shouted a sacred word, sending an invisible wave that made him regain his consciousness immediately.
Prison Magic!
Su Che refused to give up. A large character for “prison” appeared on the elder who had just uttered the sacred word.
Swish!
Another elder waved his hand casually, releasing a gust of energy blade that shattered that character into pieces.
As a bystander, his vital energy wasn’t bound by any supernatural powers, so destroying that character was a piece of cake for him.
Su Che tried to use Soul Seizure again, but there were too many opponents to deal with…
At this moment, the other three elders had approached Su Che and jointly released invisible vital energy waves. With a whoosh, they created a powerful force that trapped Su Che in place.
There was a huge difference in cultivation strength between the late Foundation Building stage and the Golden Core stage. If Su Che’s two powers failed to work, he would surely be captured by them, especially since they were fighting together.
Moreover, one of them was already at the middle stage of Golden Core.
“We’ve got him!”
“We finally caught him!”
The Golden Core elders of the Taiyi Sect were overjoyed.
Su Che was trapped by that powerful force, unable to move even his fingers, with no strength to struggle. Despair surged within him, and he could only shout in his heart, “Immortal Prison! Immortal Prison! If you can’t save me, then leave and find another master!”
“Master!”
Inside the Immortal Prison, Lao He knelt down with a loud thud, drawing over two million spirit stones before him. He looked up and cried, “I give you all these spirit stones! Eat them and then save my master!”
Buzz…
Inside Su Che’s mind, the completely black Immortal Prison Pagoda slowly rotated, as if it were about to…
Boom!
After a loud explosion, Su Che felt his body lighten, instantly regaining his ability to move.
In front of and behind him, six Golden Core elders from the Taiyi Sect fell from the sky simultaneously, all with blood streaming from their mouths and noses. They had fallen more than ten zhang before barely stopping, their faces pale.
All six were injured at once!
What was going on?

Could it be that the Immortal Prison has truly unleashed its power?
As Su Che was filled with confusion, a deep, familiar, and comforting voice rang in his ears.
“I thought so. You bunch are sneaking around here—sure enough, you’re after my disciple.”
High above, a figure as heavy as a mountain stood there, his imposing gaze piercing like his golden sword energy.
“Venerable Xuanji!”
The two Golden Core elders of the Taiyi Sect exclaimed in shock.
Only then did Su Che realize it wasn’t the Immortal Prison at work—it was his master who had arrived in time to save him.
“Che.”
Venerable Xuanji turned his gaze, raised his hand lightly, and pulled Su Che to his side.
“Master!”
Su Che bowed in reverence, his emotions beyond description at that moment.
“Let’s go!” shouted the middle-stage Golden Core elder of the Taiyi Sect.
The other five scattered in different directions, trying to escape.
They all knew that Venerable Xuanji was at the advanced stage of Golden Core, a top-tier warrior on par with the Great Venerable Haoyuan—unmatchable!
If caught, it would be their doom.
Soul Seize!
Buzz…
Su Che promptly activated his divine power, causing one of them to collapse and roll downward.
Demon Trap!
A large “prison” character trapped another person.
“Can you escape?”
At the same time, Venerable Xuanji waved his hand, sending four beams of golden light out, which quickly caught up to the other four.
Ah…
With a few screams, the three early-stage Golden Core cultivators, unable to resist, were pierced by the golden light and fell from the sky simultaneously.
Only the middle-stage Golden Core elder from the Taiyi Sect managed to turn around in time, activating his flying sword to counterattack, thus resisting the golden light.
It was because Venerable Xuanji split his energy into four streams that he could withstand it unharmed—though only barely.
Whoosh!
A massive golden sword followed—this was Venerable Xuanji’s true killing move.
“Hao!”
The elder roared, gathering all his energy, and used both his flying sword and defensive talismans to block in front of him…
Whoosh!
To his surprise, the massive golden sword transformed into countless tiny swords, rushing at him like a storm.
Clang…
His flying sword and magic shield only managed to block a small portion; the rest of the golden swords arrived before his eyes.
“My life is over!”
The elder was filled with terror before being completely engulfed by golden light.
After the golden light faded, not a trace of him remained—not even his soul could escape.
Whoosh!

Thousands of tiny golden swords reformed into a giant sword in the air, and finally turned into a delicate golden flying sword that returned to the hands of Venerable Mysterious Insight.
Soul capture! Soul capture! Soul capture!
Su Che emitted blue light three times in a row, drawing the elemental spirits of the other three people pierced by the golden light from their corpses and sending them straight to the Immortal Prison.
This action resembled Su Che’s vertical eyes between his brows, devouring others’ souls.
At that moment, Venerable Mysterious Insight looked at the two remaining Taiyi Sect elders who were still alive but held suspended in mid-air by Su Che’s divine powers, nodded, and said, “It’s been months—your skills have improved significantly.”
“Master.”
Su Che replied truthfully, “I can only hold them in place; I’m not strong enough to defeat them. All three sword energies from the talisman you gave me have been used up.”
“I know.”
Venerable Mysterious Insight snapped his fingers lightly, and with two flashes of sword light, he pierced the brains of those two still-living Golden Core elders, killing them.
Soon after, their elemental spirits were also drawn by Su Che.
Venerable Mysterious Insight continued, “Within ten thousand miles, whenever you use that talisman, I’ll sense it, which allows me to arrive in time to save you.”
Su Che suddenly understood—there was a trace of his master’s elemental spirit embedded in that talisman. Once used, his master could sense it clearly from ten thousand miles away…
Undoubtedly, using the talisman meant facing danger, so his master would surely come to rescue him.
All six Golden Core elders of the Taiyi Sect were dead. This was the first time Su Che had witnessed his master’s true strength. It could be said that when serious, his master could kill someone at the mid-Golden Core stage with a single strike.
This was the true level of a top-tier powerhouse—far more powerful than Feng Sha from the markets of Qinglan Continent!
“Go and collect those corpses,” Venerable Mysterious Insight said gravely. “Only you and I need to know about this. There’s no need to inform the Supreme Patriarch.”
“Understood,” Su Che nodded in agreement. He naturally understood that his master was doing this to protect him. After all, the two divine powers he had displayed just now could indeed arouse endless speculation among many people.
Together with the two he had killed earlier, he now had the corpses and elemental spirits of eight Golden Core cultivators, along with their personal belongings—a huge fortune for Su Che.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Su Che followed Venerable Mysterious Insight toward the mountain gate.
“Master, was that golden flying sword an attack-type spiritual treasure?”

“Why ask so many questions! You have so many secrets; even as your master, I need to keep some mystery to myself.”
“It must be a spiritual treasure. Even if you deny it, I can still guess!”
The young man, who had been chased all the way, relaxed completely as he followed his master.
We’re finally home.
