Although they were twins, their appearances looked completely different. One was extremely fat with a waist bigger than a bucket, and the other very thin, basically only skin and bones.
But they looked quite similar: eye-catching, and bad-smelling. In two words, extremely ugly.
However, although they induced sympathy from the audience, the names of these Luo Twin Fiends reverberated like thunder among low-level cultivators.
The fat one was the elder brother, whose name was Tong, which meant barrel and described him amply.
The thin one was his younger brother, whose name was Biao. It was said that he was extremely valiant when fighting.
Although the two were only at the Foundation Establishment Late-stage, they practiced a Cultivation Method of unified attack, which complemented each one’s attack and defense. In addition, these twins grew up together, and they could almost connect their minds. They were really strong opponents.
In short, the two of them were very famous among the experts of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
There were even rumors that a few years ago, the two brothers had a dispute with a pair of cultivators because of a rare treasure.
The couple were both at the False Core Stage, and they were far better than the two fiends. But after the battle, they were both defeated and the two of them fell. It showed that the twins’ combination technique was really extraordinary.
In the past six months, Lin Xuan traveled among many towns and cities, and he happened to hear the names of the two evils. So when he was in the stone chamber, he felt some familiarity, but he didn’t remember it at that moment.
But now, he was somewhat enlightened.
As for the brothers, they looked at Lin Xuan with the same expression of surprise and uncertainty. The wood spirit tree was hard to find, the weak Spiritual Power fluctuations were simply difficult to be noticed by Foundation Foundation Stage cultivators. Because of their special Cultivation Method, they could combine their Spiritual Sense together, that was why they were able to find this place, but they never expected that there would be someone ahead of them.
And according to their Spiritual Eye Technique, this young man was only at the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage!
However, they were not Hu Fan, the two twins were famous, but they were also extremely cautious. After all, in the Immortal Cultivation World, in addition to strength, one also needed to be scheming. Unless you have the amazing power of the Nascent Soul Stage, otherwise, you will definitely hit a wall someday.
Their hands reached for the storage bags under their waists.
Seeing this scene, Lin Xuan knew that this matter could not be solved peacefully.
In that case, the best way was to strike first.
A cyan light flashed bright, and Lin Xuan had already activated his Spiritual Qi Shield.
Then he stretched out his hand. Several talismans were gripped tightly in the palm of his hand.
He circulated his Spiritual Power and threw the talismans into the sky. All kinds of colors flashed brilliantly, and another four or five layers of barriers appeared around his body.
These were all high-level defensive skills. Each layer could at least block a blow from a High-grade Spirit Tool.
However, this was only the beginning. While throwing the talismans, he muttered an incantation. He waved his other sleeve, and with a dazzling cold light, ice needles as dense as rain shot out.
He remembered that when he was at the Spirit Condensation Stage, this was one of the first Magic Arts he practiced. Now more than ten years had passed, and his cultivation base had soared to the Foundation Establishment Late-stage.
This Magic Art was still the same Magic Art, but its power was now incomparable to the past. And can no longer be described in the same breath.
Not only did the number of Ice-Needles soar to one thousand, but the lethality of each needle also increased by several times.
Of course, the enemies he now faced were also different from the past. And by using this Magic Art, it was difficult to say if he could even achieve similar results as before. Let alone win.
Lin Xuan opened his mouth. A burst of flame spurted out.
Innate True Fire!
However, the fire did not directly attack the enemy. Instead, it hovered in front of him. Then it turned into a firebird the size of a palm, with a vivid shape and appearance, then it flapped its wings and rushed towards the two brothers.
Fire-Bird Spell!
Human Rank High-level Magic Art.
However, compared with other high-level offensive skills, it was more difficult to master. Because it required a meticulous control of Spiritual Power.
Even for a master at the False Core Stage, it would take a long time to cast it. However, due to his strong Spiritual Sense, Lin Xuan was barely able to use it in the Foundation Establishment Late-Stage.
Corresponding to the difficulty of casting, the power of this Magic Art is unparalleled, and it was slightly better than the full blow of an ordinary Top Grade Spirit Tool.
Seeing Lin Xuan’s ease at casting the “Fire-Bird Spell”, the twin brothers almost thought they were seeing things. Normally, this Magic spell was activated with the use of talismans. It was the first time they’ve seen it being cast personally while wandering outside for so many years.
However…..it was not over yet!
After releasing the Fire-Bird Spell, Lin Xuan stretched out his five fingers, and made a grabbing motion.
His Spiritual Power was injected into the ground, and the soil beneath him was sucked up by him like a whale swallowing water.
His other hand made a midair, and with a tap of his index finger, a white beam of light sank into the mudflow that was several dozen feet thick.
With a bang, the mud blasted open and then re-assembled into dozens of stone columns half a meter in diameter. They were pointy at both ends. This technique of turning mud into stone was also a high-level Magic Art.
“Go!”
Lin Xuan muttered softly, and dozens of stone pillars flew towards the enemy from different angles with a heart-pounding whistling sound.
These attacks were done in one go. Almost as soon as the first Magic spell was just released, the second Magic spell followed, with no lag in between.
Lin Xuan didn’t take out his Spirit Tools immediately. Firstly, he was testing them out. Secondly, he wanted to test out his own strength without relying on external tools.
After all, although all kinds of treasures were very important in the Cultivation World, their cultivation base was the foundation. If you’re obsessed with using Spirit Tools and Magic Artifacts all the time, you may go astray. This was Lin Xuan’s reminder and a test to himself, and the result was much better than he expected.
