Xu Ge looked at the crowd bathed in holy light and said loudly, "Those chosen by the holy light, stand on my right hand now. I will lead you into the immortal path."
Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately stood beside Xu Ge, their faces filled with anticipation.
To become an immortal was something ordinary mortals dreamed of for lifetimes.
After arranging the others, Xu Ge's gaze fell upon Su Xi, a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
It was truly strange that someone would not be interested in becoming an immortal.
Thinking that he was still short of people, Xu Ge smiled with a hint of approachability and asked, "Why are you unwilling to become an immortal? Do you not know the great benefits of becoming an immortal?"
Xu Ge was worried that these people did not know the benefits of becoming an immortal, so he explained it again.
His words were extremely alluring. Many of the household servants, hearing him speak, felt a surge of excitement in their hearts and unconsciously walked under the so-called holy light for the final baptism.
After the baptism ceremony was completed, Xu Ge's gaze landed on Su Xi.
Everyone else had moved, yet Su Xi, his primary target, had not been bewitched. Moreover, he felt a strong affinity for spiritual energy from Su Xi, clearly indicating exceptional talent.
Gaining one Su Xi was far more important than gaining hundreds of others.
Confirming Su Xi's extraordinary nature, Xu Ge was naturally unwilling to miss out. After some thought, he uncharacteristically walked towards Su Xi and asked, "Are you not going to join me yet?"
Seeing Xu Ge walk up to Su Xi, the others couldn't help but show envious expressions.
When would they ever receive such treatment? Kuaishuge.
However, since they also knew their own limited aptitude, and now that they had the opportunity to cultivate, they did not covet other benefits.
Although Xu Ge had only spoken a simple sentence, his voice carried a powerful charm that captivated the heart, making one's thoughts wander.
This was his unique skill, the enchanting sound that made anyone who heard it obedient to his words.
Even those much more powerful than him in the past would be affected, let alone Su Xi, an ordinary mortal. It should have been a done deal.
Yet, despite him saying it many times, Su Xi remained standing there, motionless, as if she hadn't heard anything.
"Why are you unaffected?" This unexpected turn of events made Xu Ge doubt his abilities for the first time.
Why had his magic not worked on Su Xi?
Could Su Xi be deaf, and thus unaffected?
Su Xi looked at the bewildered Xu Ge and chuckled, "The Daoist priest's words are very enticing, but I don't want to become an immortal."
Xu Ge's enchanting sound was effective against others, but it had no effect on her. After all, she possessed the Celestial Talisman within her body, capable of blocking any mind-confounding attacks at any time.
While Xu Ge's enchanting sound was potent, it was no match for the Celestial Talisman.
Hearing Su Xi's words, Xu Ge was stunned, then quickly reacted, his face turning angry.
He realized he had just been toyed with by Su Xi, and this person was definitely not ordinary.
With this realization, Xu Ge no longer displayed his gentleness. He leaped towards Su Xi. No matter what, he had to deal with the person who dared to trick him first.
What he couldn't have, he would destroy. Furthermore, his actions must not be leaked.
Seeing Xu Ge reveal his true colors, Su Xi smiled at the corner of her lips, showing no nervousness.
She had already scanned Xu Ge with her supercomputer and understood that his strength was only at the peak of the Golden Core stage. It was just that due to the difference in his cultivation technique, he exhibited such power.
The supercomputer not only scanned Xu Ge's true strength but also revealed his weaknesses. As long as the weakness was found, Su Xi could defeat a stronger opponent with a weaker one.
Therefore, despite the significant gap in cultivation, she was not afraid.
"Chirp~"
With a crisp bird's cry, countless air arrows erupted from Xu Ge's mouth, shooting towards Su Xi.
The arrows emitted a dazzling light in the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound as they cut through the air. Simultaneously, they carried a sacred aura.
This sacred aura instilled a sense of peace, making one lose the will to resist.
However, Su Xi, enveloped in the holy light, was completely unaffected.
Facing the incoming attack, she raised the Meteor God Sword in her hand, injecting it with surging magic power. At the same time, a brilliant light erupted from the Meteor God Sword, forming a wall of fire in front of her.
As soon as the feather arrows approached the flames, they instantly turned to ash and disappeared.
The surrounding mortals, witnessing the grand battle between Su Xi and Xu Ge, were terrified and quickly dodged to the sides.
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
Their mortal bodies could not withstand such fierce attacks.
A single misstep could truly lead to immediate ascension. However, this was not the path to immortality they desired.
Xu Ge watched as his holy light purification had no effect in Su Xi's hands, his expression darkening. In his long time in the human realm, he had never encountered anyone like Su Xi.
Why would an ordinary human have the ability to stop him?
Disbelieving, Xu Ge instantly increased his magic power output. More intense holy light was continuously unleashed, gradually enveloping Su Xi.
He knew Su Xi's flames were peculiar, but he intended to suppress them with his magic power and defeat her.
After all, as a member of the Kunpeng clan, his magic power was far more abundant than that of humans at the same level, let alone Su Xi, whose cultivation was far inferior to his.
As long as Su Xi's magic power was depleted, he could take her away without expending any effort and accomplish his objective.
Xu Ge's plan was indeed clever, but he had seriously underestimated Su Xi's strength.
If she were that easy to deal with, she would have died countless times over.
Just as Xu Ge was preparing to make his move, Su Xi had already anticipated his intentions. She struck first, raising her modified energy cannon.
Although the energy cannon in her hand was not as powerful as the Meteor God Sword, it possessed an advantage the Meteor God Sword lacked: it could produce a violent explosion, and the explosion contained strong radiation.
When it came to driving away birds, nothing was more effective than a powerful sound.
With this thought, Su Xi unhesitatingly pulled the trigger, aiming at Xu Ge.
"Bang bang bang!"
Several shots followed. Although Xu Ge managed to block the attack, the intense sound, coupled with the fierce radiation, instantly caused Xu Ge to feel an inexplicable sense of irritation.
"Buzz~"
Amidst the explosions, he felt his ears ringing incessantly, as if struck by a heavy object, and his vision went black for a few seconds.
Seeing Xu Ge momentarily stunned, Su Xi did not miss the opportunity. She immediately wielded her fire poker.
Since she had finally encountered someone from another race, she certainly wouldn't let him go easily. She had to capture him and understand the situation.
Crossing racial boundaries with ill intentions was not to be taken lightly.
"Crack!" In an instant, Xu Ge, due to his carelessness, was turned into an ice sculpture and fell to the ground.
