Chapter 436: Chapter 433: The War Power of 9 Jiao Dragon Skulls

Chapter 436 -433: The War Power of 9 Jiao Dragon Skulls

A young figure, dressed in a splendid magic robe, stepped out from the tower ship, his handsome features as meticulously crafted as jade.

But as he appeared, a sense of heat abruptly rose in the void. Disciples and spiritual beasts that employed fire element magic suddenly found it easier to gather spiritual energy and cast spells, even feeling that their power had increased significantly.

Looking up, one could see behind the young man in mid-air, a red cloud rising and covering half the sky.

However, some discerning cultivators from the Beast Taming Sect could see clearly, those were not just any red clouds, but rather an endless amount of fire element spiritual energy gathered by the Supreme Elder of the Vermilion Bird Lineage through the power of laws.

A burly man pursed his lips and muttered under his breath, implying that the old fellow, despite his age, still dressed flamboyantly every day.

He was Zhong Duanshan, the Supreme Elder of the Divine Bull Lineage, who, due to his cultivation technique, always took pride in his robust physique, and thus, held some disdain for the dapper appearance of the Supreme Elder of the Vermilion Bird Lineage.

Of course, this disdain was also due to his past experiences of being snubbed by the Supreme Elder of the Vermilion Bird Lineage because of his looks.

The Supreme Elder of the Vermilion Bird Lineage was named Yan Wujin, also one of the elders who had previously ventured into the Red Flame Demon Realm.

During his time in the Red Flame Demon Realm, he had fought nearly a hundred battles against demon gods, a series of high-intensity combats that spurred his potential and allowed him to break through the true Immortal bottleneck and ascend to the realm of Heavenly Immortal.

Although it was only an initial ascension, he was still a being of the Heavenly Immortal realm, and being of the same realm, he could clearly hear Zhong Duanshan’s muttering and glared fiercely at the big, stupid bull.

Regrettably, such words as “big, stupid bull” were hard to voice.

Because the latter was indeed stronger in cultivation, having advanced to the Heavenly Immortal realm thousands of years before him. If the other party was a fool, what did that make him?

So, his anger could only be vented upon the demon cultivators.

The Yin Ghost Master and other demon cultivators saw another Heavenly Immortal emerge from the Beast Taming Sect and their expressions drastically changed.

“You… you…”

The Yin Ghost Master trembled with rage, “Is this the way righteous path cultivators act? Even if you discovered Ten Thousand Crows Valley and had to deal with such a small branch, you could have just sent a few people. Yet you deployed two Heavenly Immortals, you… aren’t leaving us any way to survive!”

At that moment, not only the Yin Ghost Master, but also those newly arrived demon cultivators felt desperate.

They had been severely injured during the righteous path’s encirclement and, after barely escaping, hid in the deep underground of Ten Thousand Crows Valley to recover. Before their injuries were completely healed, the Beast Taming Sect had dispatched two incredibly powerful Supreme Elders.

“Nonsense!”

Zhong Duanshan retorted with a scoff, “As demon cultivators, you ought to be prepared for retribution.”

Yan Wujin also sneered, “You hid yourselves quite well, previously we didn’t even notice your presence. It seems in future, when hunting down demon cultivators, we really need to search thoroughly to avoid being deceived by some folks.”

He glanced at the Yin Ghost Master and then at the Skull Daoist, saying coldly, “Since you’ve shown yourselves, just stay here. However, I generally don’t like leaving complete corpses when I intervene. If you can’t withstand my Nanming Leaving Fire, you will know why they call me Yan Wujin!”

As he spoke, he didn’t even wait for the demon cultivators to respond. With a wave of his sleeves, the vast amount of gathered fire element spiritual energy behind him burst into a sky full of flames, causing the void itself to burn and distort.

Then with a wave of his hands, the burning flames surged like living creatures towards the location of the Yin Ghost Master and the Skull Daoist.

Clearly, he knew Zhong Duanshan was eyeing the White Bull Venerable from the Nine Spirit Sect, or specifically, the white bull the venerable rode.

Though it was just a Primordial Spirit Realm white bull and far less powerful compared to Zhong Duanshan and even if subjugated, it wouldn’t be much help to him, as the gap between Primordial Spirit Realm and Heavenly Immortal Realm was immense.

However, Zhong Duanshan was not interested in the bull’s strength but in its bloodline.

This white bull was an extremely rare type of divine bull that lived in the Great Snow Mountain in the Western Regions, considered a divine beast by the locals, with extraordinary heritage and formidable divine powers. Due to its rarity and the fact that Great Snow Mountain was Buddhist territory, the cultivators from the Beast Taming Sect couldn’t venture so far to capture someone else’s divine beast, hence no such white bulls existed in the sect’s Ten Thousand Demons Cave Heaven.

However, while the Beast Taming Sect had reservations, the demon cultivators from the Nine Spirit Sect of the demon path had none. In fact, they fiercely contested with Buddhism, thus acting without scruples.

Therefore, once he set his sights on the divine bull of Great Snow Mountain, he boldly ventured deep into the snow-covered mountain, evaded Buddhist detections, kidnapped the white bull calf at the time, and hence got his title of White Bull Venerable.

Seeing Yan Wujin engaging the two demon immortals, Zhong Duanshan was unconcerned.

He didn’t mind the two injured, not yet recovered demon immortals, as even if they had been in perfect condition, they couldn’t have matched Yan Wujin.

After all, Yan Wujin had ascended to Heavenly Immortal and possessed not only a superior realm but also a Longevity Realm spiritual beast; there was no way the Yin Ghost Master and his peers could stand against him.

He looked at the White Bull Venerable of the Nine Spirit Sect, a trace of simple honesty in his smile, “You, a demon cultivator, riding a white bull actually doesn’t really suit you. How about you give your riding tool to me?”

“Will you let me go if I give you my rider?”

The White Bull Venerable asked.

“Cannot!”

Zhong Duanshan shook his head, “To rid the world of demon cultivators is a duty established by the ancestors of the sects, and I dare not contravene it.

Besides, even if I let you go today, you would still meet your end sooner or later; thus, it would be better to fulfill my longstanding small wish.”

“Hmph.”

White Bull Venerable’s voice was icy cold, “Since it offers me no benefit, why would I give you the riding tool?”

“There are some benefits, though.”

Zhong Duanshan said with a chuckle, “If you willingly hand over the White Bull, I will grant you a swift end and even leave your whole corpse intact, how about that? I do have some sincerity.

It’s best if you agree, otherwise, I will smash you into a meat paste!”

“Dead is dead, why would I care what becomes of me afterwards? Just give up that idea. Before I die, I will kill this riding tool first and give you no chances.”

White Bull Venerable’s expression was gloomy, “Besides, I’m not the same as those two, you might not even be able to keep me!”

“Oh?”

Zhong Duanshan’s seemingly simple face showed a bit of interest, “I have long heard that the Nine Spirit Sect’s cultivation techniques are strange and good at puppeteering. Although it’s different from our Beast Taming Sect’s taming of spiritual beasts, it also has its mysteries.

It’s just that your Nine Spirit Sect has been more active elsewhere, rarely entering our Beast Taming Sect’s territory, so I have yet to witness it. Today, I’m quite eager to see it.

Come on, show me whatever skills you have, let me see the mysteries of your Nine Spirit Sect’s techniques!”

“As you wish!”

White Bull Venerable sneered, and with a wave of his hand, a burst of yellow soil erupted from the ground of Ten Thousand Crows Valley, and figures flew up from underground, roughly numbering in the hundreds.

“So many? Eh, that’s Xie Wufeng of the Giant Spirit Sect.”

Zhong Duanshan’s expression finally changed as he looked at one of the taller figures in utter surprise, “I heard this fellow disappeared before, thought he was hiding somewhere cultivating in seclusion, didn’t expect he fell into your hands.”

He turned his head to look at other figures, raising an eyebrow, “Loose Immortal Lingyang, even he died by your hand, hmm, and there are so many demon cultivators? You don’t spare even them?”

“Most of those demon cultivators weren’t killed by me, but rather died from being ambushed and attacked by your so-called Righteous Path Cultivators.”

White Bull Venerable said indifferently, “Since they were already dead, there’s nothing wrong with me using their corpses.”

“That’s right, your Nine Spirit Sect doesn’t care about such things, as long as they can be used, you even refine your own sect members into puppets.”

Zhong Duanshan nodded, “Nine Spirit Sect’s human refining into puppets, even sealing people’s residual souls to preserve more combat power, such cruel methods are indeed unique in the Demon Sect, no wonder you have the worst reputation in the cultivation world, and even among demon cultivators, you are notorious.

But I wonder, how much of their original combat power can these puppets exert!”

“Let’s find out then!”

This content is taken from fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm.

With a thought from White Bull Venerable, hundreds of corpse puppets surged forward, charging towards Zhong Duanshan.

Among them, the puppet form of Xie Wufeng from the Giant Spirit Sect, a Supreme Elder, swelled in size becoming mountain-like and raised the copper hammer in its hand to smash at Zhong Duanshan.

On the other side, the puppet of Loose Immortal Lingyang raised its hands, condensing a scorching sun radiance in front of it, emitting fierce light rays towards Zhong Duanshan.

The rest of the hundreds of puppets also cast various magic divine powers towards Zhong Duanshan.

Zhong Duanshan’s figure flashed, dodging the nearly wrapped Xie Wufeng and waved scattering a yellow light that blocked the spells from the group of puppets.

Moments later, he saw the reason, “So these puppets can only use the spells and divine powers they were most familiar with before death, no wonder it feels so strange.

Well, they are all already dead, even under your control, they could not possibly exert their full power like when they were alive.”

Having said that, his figure suddenly shifted, transforming into a Minotaur. His body inflated, growing to match the size of Xie Wufeng, and with a fierce punch, he collided with the copper hammer held by Xie Wufeng.

With a thunderous boom, Xie Wufeng was sent flying hundreds of yards back, followed by a step forward, his large hand covering down, fiercely slamming the puppet of Loose Immortal Lingyang into the ground causing a huge crater.

Then, he charged violently, cutting through the hundreds of puppets, directly reaching White Bull Venerable. His large hand opened wide like Five-Finger Mountain and grabbed at White Bull Venerable.

With a bang, White Bull Venerable’s form was crushed, turning into a pile of rotten flesh carrying a stench, while the White Bull raised its hooves and quickly retreated.

“Hmm?”

Zhong Duanshan’s eyebrows raised, “Fake?”

“Hehehe…”

Not far away, a corpse puppet suddenly opened its mouth, producing the voice of White Bull Venerable.

Before his laughter faded, he was shattered by a punch from Zhong Duanshan, but it still wasn’t his real body.

Far away, another corpse puppet spoke, “Knowing that my Nine Spirit Sect excels at puppeteering, and yet still think of catching my true form, it won’t be that easy.”

He turned his head around, unable to contain a cold laugh, “Kill, just kill, the more of you die, the more puppets I can have, just keep killing.”

As he spoke, he pointed a finger, and a recently dead Purple Mansion Demon Cultivator a thousand yards away was entered by a strange force. Then, like a marionette, its body opened its eyes and surged into the air, joining the team attacking Zhong Duanshan.

“Nine Spirit Sect, although damnable, possesses a truly formidable technique!”

Zhong Duanshan nodded, “But merely relying on such trifles to challenge me in a spell fight, they are far from qualified.”

With that, he suddenly flipped his palm, and instantly, a large mountain phantom pressed down, covering hundreds of corpse puppets within, leaving only a few barely escaping. The rest were completely crushed into dust by the mountain phantom, leaving no bones behind!

On the other side, Daoist Crow was planning to take advantage of the chaos during the great battle among several Immortals and Demon Cultivators, where several Primordial Spirits appeared to find Qin Feng and retrieve his Spiritual Treasure and the crow.

However, the Primordial Spirit Realm Cultivators on their side, although equal in strength to their opponents, all had old injuries. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have stayed hidden, recuperating deep underground with those Demon Immortals. Hence, they truly couldn’t fend off Yu Hualong and others, and naturally, Daoist Crow had no chance to break away and find Qin Feng’s misfortune.

Furious, he burst into a rage, pushing his demon techniques to the extremity, fighting Yu Hualong to a stalemate.

Even when Yu Hualong summoned his Spiritual Beasts, he could not suppress Daoist Crow in the slightest.

Clearly, Daoist Crow was prepared to fight desperately, knowing if he couldn’t retrieve the Ten Thousand Crows Pot and the Death Curse Crow, he might permanently lose the chance to advance.

For a Demon Cultivator facing the Heavenly Tribulation, it was even more so!

“Go to the deepest part of the valley and help me retrieve my treasure!”

Daoist Crow bellowed at the many Demon Cultivators, “Anyone who can kill that youngster and retrieve the Ten Thousand Crows Pot for me will get a chance.

I know where the inheritance land of the Ancient Heart Demon Sect is located. If anyone can get my items back, I will divulge the location and let you all try your luck at advancing.”

These words changed not only the complexion of the ordinary Demon Cultivators fighting ferociously but even those higher-status Demon Cultivators in the Purple Mansion Dharma Form Realm also stirred, “Daoist Crow, are you speaking the truth?”

“Do you really know the inheritance of the Heart Demon Sect?”

“Why would I deceive you!”

Daoist Crow retorted angrily, “If it weren’t for the fact that my own Daoist techniques were nearly at great completion and I didn’t wish to cripple my cultivation to change my practice to the Heart Demon Sect’s techniques, why would I wait till now to give you this opportunity!”

One of the Demon Cultivators asked, “If we help you retrieve the treasure, how can you assure us you will keep your promise?”

“I swear a great oath on my heart demon here. If I break my promise, I shall be despised by all demons, unfit to be part of the Demon Path, and all demon cultivators are free to kill me!”

Daoist Crow was desperate, casting any oaths he could think of.

“Alright, we will go and retrieve the treasures for you now. I hope you keep your word!”

A group of Demon Cultivators, stirred by the prospect, began casting spells to free themselves from their opponents and rushed toward Qin Feng.

They were inevitably tempted, knowing among the various factions of the Demon Path, the Heavenly Demon was the strongest, the Corpse Demon the most brutal, and the Heart Demon the most cunning!

To be honest, had it not been for the heavy suppression of the Heart Demon Sect by the Righteous Path Cultivators during the period of the Ancient Great Tribulation, with the strength of the Heart Demon Sect, they might have contended for the title of the number one faction of the Demon Path with the Heavenly Demon Sect.

However, the Heart Demon Sect was secretive and their methods even more unpredictable and hard to guard against, especially adept at stirring up the heart demons within people invisibly, enticing people into demonhood.

During the Ancient Great Tribulation, numerous cultivators were led into demonhood by them, thus were heavily suppressed by Righteous Path Cultivators, targeted specifically by great powers from various factions towards the end of the tribulation period, which led to the destruction of their sect. Unexpectedly, their lineage had survived.

What’s more surprising was that the location of the Heart Demon Sect’s inheritance land was discovered by Daoist Crow.

“Stop them!”

Yu Hualong, seeing many Demon Cultivators spurred by greed due to Daoist Crow’s instigations, rushing towards Qin Feng, was alarmed. Qin Feng, although strong among his peers, could hardly withstand the attack of so many Demon Cultivators, so he hurriedly ordered the Beast Taming Sect cultivators to intercept them.

The two Supreme Elders did not bother with the situation below, for them, it was enough to kill Daoist Crow later and then eradicate all the remaining Demon Cultivators. Naturally, no Demon Cultivator would be able to obtain the Heart Demon inheritance!

Of course, capturing Daoist Crow and coercing the location of the inheritance land from him would be even better, then they could destroy it directly to prevent others from stumbling upon it in the future.

In the deepest part of the valley, Qin Feng also heard Daoist Crow’s shout, and seeing so many Demon Cultivators charging towards him, was startled.

Fortunately, his sect was powerful, fully intercepting them, so only a few closer Demon Cultivators who had freed themselves from the Spiritual Beasts came towards him, with the rest being tied up.

Looking at those few Demon Cultivators, Qin Feng couldn’t help but sneer coldly, “Really foolish from greed, not even a Purple Mansion cultivator among you, and yet you wish to challenge me?”

He sensed the Demon Refining Pot with his Divine Sense. At that moment, the Demon Refining Pot had already securely locked the Ten Thousand Crows Pot in its fourth space layer, and the little crow had lost all resistance, completely subdued by the Demon Refining Pot.

Although the explosion of the Netherworld Crow had shattered his magic robe and sent him crashing into the white bone nest behind him, slamming fiercely against the cliff, the only damage he suffered beyond being shaken with disarrayed breath and coughing up a mouthful of congested blood was minor.

Even so, as his self-healing divine power operated on its own, under the mend of the life principle, he quickly restored himself to his original state in a blink of an eye.

However, the black magic robe he was wearing was completely torn apart, even his original robe was damaged, exposing his well-toned upper body.

He sighed lightly, originally intending to execute the Shadow Transformation Divine Power and sneak into the darkness, discarding the demon cult robe and reappearing from another location, thus avoiding being recognized by other demon cultivators and specifically targeted.

Now, with the self-destruction of the Netherworld Crow, his appearance was wholly exposed, and not only did the demon dao cultivators recognize him, but even his fellow sect members did as well.

Moreover, a few foolish individuals even shouted out cheerfully, “It’s Senior Brother Qin Feng!”

As if fearing that Daoist Crow wouldn’t know his identity.

Qin Feng sighed helplessly, but by this time, the demon cultivators had already flown closer, and more and more were coming from afar towards him, so he couldn’t be concerned with that anymore.

“It’s Senior Brother Qin Feng of the Beast Taming Sect’s Spiritual Snake Lineage!”

“He’s injured; he was hit by the self-explosion of the Netherworld Crow from the Purple Mansion Realm. He must be seriously injured now.”

“That’s right, let’s team up and kill him!”

Seeing Qin Feng blasted against the cliffside, his body even smashing a sizable crater into it, a group of demon cultivators suddenly saw the opportunity, their eyes gleaming as they each brandished demon treasures toward Qin Feng.

“Hmph, a bunch of demon cultivators without a clue, now isn’t the time to think about self-preservation, and they’re even thinking about seizing treasures from me. How utterly absurd.”

His form flickered, and he broke free from the cliff, his aura surged, and behind him emerged several Jiao Dragon heads.

As his cultivation rose, especially after his “Azure Dragon Divine Technique” had advanced to the Purple Mansion Realm, when merged with the Ruyi Golden Snake, he was able to manage more varieties.

Like now, after merging, he could easily control the body of the Ruyi Golden Snake, hiding it within his body or displaying nine heads as he was currently doing, and if he wished, he could even grow a snake tail.

“What is this?”

The sight startled the gathering of demon cultivators, “Wasn’t the Nine-Headed Snake extinct during the Ancient Great Tribulation? There were no records of any surviving Nine-Headed Snakes!”

“Why bother with so much nonsense, let’s hurry up and kill him. We agreed beforehand, if we kill him together, everyone gets a share of the Heart Demon Inheritance and no one can secretively keep it all!”

“That’s easy. The most precious part of the Heart Demon Inheritance is the cultivation technique. As for the cultivation resources inside, we can divide them up later.”

While the demon cultivators were talking, they didn’t stop their actions, summoning all sorts of magical treasures and casting demon path magic, launching bizarre attacks at Qin Feng.

Bang, bang, bang!

Amid a clashing of gold and iron, Qin Feng swung the Sky Battle Halberd, sending numerous magical treasures flying, and relying on his strong physical body, he resisted the demon cultivators’ magic attacks. Taking a step forward, he arrived in front of the many demon cultivators, sweeping the big spear, beheading the demon cultivators one by one, his nine serpent heads constantly striking out, their massive jaws snapping ferociously at their opponents.

The teeth of the Ruyi Golden Snake were excellent, capable of biting through metal and gold, which allowed them to sever bones and rip through the bodies of these demon cultivators upon contact.

Some serpent heads directly bit the demon path treasures aimed at Qin Feng, crunching the treasures to pieces and devouring them.

Such ferocious and potent methods immediately startled this batch of demon cultivators.

A demon cultivator from the Blood God Sect transformed his body into a blood light, silently attempting to drill into Qin Feng.

However, his form had merely come within ten meters of Qin Feng, when one of the Jiao Dragon heads suddenly twisted around and looked at him.

With a spout of pure white flame, it enveloped the transformed blood shadow of the demon cultivator, completely purifying the blood shadow within a few moments.

“A bunch of trash.”

A sudden shout came from behind the remaining demon cultivators, “Stand aside, let me handle this!”

The demon cultivators parted, revealing a corpulent, ball-shaped Purple Mansion demon cultivator charging towards Qin Feng like a meteor.

Seeing the fast approach of the corpulent demon, Qin Feng couldn’t dodge in time. He positioned the Sky Battle Halberd in front of him to block the direction of the incoming meatball.

Then there was a crunch, and the Sky Battle Halberd actually broke into two.

As Qin Feng’s cultivation grew and he faced increasingly powerful opponents, his Sky Battle Halberd had been damaged several times over the past few years in his battles against the demon cultivators, accumulating more and more damage. Though he was now much stronger, he no longer paid much attention to the halberd and hadn’t bothered to repair it, not expecting it to be completely broken now.

However, he didn’t let it bother him. Loosening his grip, he let go of the broken Sky Battle Halberd and reached forward, lifting the corpulent demon cultivator before him.

Although his form was knocked back a hundred meters by the collision, he wasn’t sent flying; instead, his hands fiercely grabbed onto the demon cultivator.

The fat-faced demon cultivator, with small, startled eyes, looked at Qin Feng: “How could your physical body power be so formidable?”

“Why so many words when you’re about to die!”

Qin Feng didn’t move his hands or feet, but the nine Jiao Dragon heads behind him leaned forward and bit onto the demon cultivator’s limbs and head. Pulling them apart like drawing and quartering, he gruesomely dismembered the demon right there.
