    But no matter what, he was still his son. So Yan Tianheng used one hand to pull his son behind him and raised the other in front of him. A light yellow-colored Spiritual Qi flowed from his body and changed into a Spirit Shield.


    Pop!


    Popping sounds rang out as the fireballs collided with the Spirit Shield. But immediately after, the fireballs disappeared. The ze talisman only contained a low-level technique. To want to break through the defense of the Yan family would take a lot more effort.


    Seeing that his moves did not have any effect, Lin Xuan became increasingly more serious. He did not quickly continue his assault, as using techniques without knowing the other’s weaknesses would be useless.


    To want to beat someone else, one first must learn how to be beaten. The battles between cultivators were very dangerous, one split second of inattention could cause one to lose one’s life, so one should firsty down their defenses. Seeing that his ambush had failed, Lin Xuan started to prepare for a prolonged battle.


    He wasn’t trash like that Yan Ming. Even if he was facing a strong foe, he was still able to calmly ponder his actions.


    Lin Xuan did not hesitate. Circting his Spiritual Qi, he also formed a protective cover over his body. Then, he quickly pulled out two more talismans. A wistful look shed in his eyes, but immediately after, he became resolute and threw them into the air.


    The first talisman shed brightly and changed into a humongous copper coin about Lin Xuan. He pointed his finger causing the copper coin to descend in front of him, shielding him from the front.


    “Adamantine technique!”


    The Yan family became agitated. This was a gold-type mid-rank defensive technique and was very sturdy. How could a rogue cultivator have such a precious talisman?


    But just as he shouted out, the other talisman also activated. It changed into a light blue-colored giant water bubble and wrapped around Lin Xuan.


    “Water Spirit Talisman!”


    This was also a mid-grade defensive technique!


    When he originally heard from his son about the rogue cultivator that used a mid-grade pill to purchase a cultivation technique, even though there were many witnesses around to confirm it, he still was skeptical in his heart. But now he believed that there really was someone that did that. Using his experience of reading people, this youth in front of him wasn’t a rogue cultivator. That kind of outfit was definitely used to try to fool other people.


    “Just who exactly are you?” Yan Tianheng stressed each syble and had a sinister face.


    Lin Xuan did not say anything. Since things were already like this, it could only end with one side or the other dying. There was no point in saying anything, only idiots would expose their real identities.


    It was as if it had cost him an arm and a leg to use those two mid-grade defensive seals. It must be known that defensive talismans were much harder than offensive talismans to craft and therefore was much more precious.


    Even though he had inherited these from Zhang Yu and Zhou Yan, there were only these two and he had just used them up.


    Lin Xuan did not respond and circted his spiritual power forming many pieces of hail and sending them whistling over to those two.


    “Hmph, such a trifling skill!”


    Yan Tianheng showed a sinister smile. He was at the great perfection of the Spirit Condensation stage. How could he even look at such a low-level technique?


    Yan Tianheng raised his arm and pinched his forefinger and thumb together and started chanting an incantation and circting his Spiritual Qi. Immediately, a huge ball of mes appeared upon his palm and then suddenly changed into the shape of a bird.


    As for the hail technique, he didn’t even bother to look at it. Even if it struck his Spirit Shield it would not do any harm to him.


    The Firebird technique was a fire-type mid-rank technique. He was definitely worthy of being an expert one step away from Foundation Establishment. Even his opening move was extraordinary.


    But Lin Xuan did not panic at all. He once again fished out five more talismans. Fire and water mutually suppress each other, and these five freeze talismans, although they were all low-level seals, but by relying on their numbers of five against one, it would still have, more or less, the same amount of power.


    Yan Tianheng opened his eyes wide in shock. He was both surprised and angry. This brat was very unexpected. Just where exactly is he from that he could take out so many talismans?


    Not to mention rogue cultivators, even disciples of sects would not be this wealthy!


    But no matter what, he could not let him live.


    Thinking of this, Yan Tianhengunched a wild storm of attacks, one mid-grade technique after another flew towards Lin Xuan.


    Lin Xuan had an apathetic look on his face but in his head, he had to admit that Yan Tianheng was indeed worthy of being a seventhyer of Spirit Condensation expert. At this very moment, he knew how lucky he was to be able to take care of Zhou Yan with a trap back then.


    If it wasn’t for the fact that Zhou Yan had underestimated him after seeing his weak cultivation and took him lightly, thus not even bothering to even raise a Spirit Shield, then he would have fallen in that small mountain valley long ago.


    Yet the Yan patriarch was going all out and did not give him any opportunities to use any tricks. Of course, he was also not that trashy disciple that was stuck at the firstyer anymore.


    Lin Xuan once again reached into his pockets for more talismans. He was not using his own Spiritual Qi to unleash techniques for a reason. Firstly, although he had made significant progress, but it had only been for a short time. His current cultivation,pared to the other, was a whole threeyers short and his Spiritual Qi was also much weaker. In a battle of techniques, the skill was only secondary, the winner was mainly determined by who had more Spiritual Qi. Since he was weaker than the other, if he used his weakness to fight against the opponent’s strength, wasn’t that simply looking for death?


    Secondly, since he had acquired the Spirit Tools, the main focus in his cultivation has deviated from the other disciples. Therefore, he only learned a few techniques.


    To defeat the enemy, one must avoid the enemy’s strong points and attack the weak points. Compared to Yan Tianheng, what was his strong point? Too many talismans.


    Talismans could be instantly activated and only used a minimal amount of Spiritual Qi. Facing a stronger foe, it would be a waste not to use them.


    As for the Ice Needles technique and Spirit Tools, they were his trump cards. Since this had be a prolonged battle, then he could not easily reveal his ultimate attacks.


    He first made a general n on how to deal with the current situation and a battle n. Then remaining calm and rxed, he unhurriedly started using talismans to deal with the Yan family head.


    Boom, boom, boom…


    The sounds of explosions rang out non-stop. The battle of cultivators could only be described as iparably fierce. Yan Tianheng was shocked and angry. Although he was at the great perfection of the Spirit Condensation stage, using mid-rank techniques was no small matter. His Spiritual Qi and spiritual power were both rapidly dropping. But Lin Xuan was using talismans as if he had an endless supply. If this continued…..
