Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

The strange spirit Yun Xiao deliberately chose was surprisingly a water attribute strange spirit, reaching the level of a half-step heavenly rank. It was much more formidable than the ninth-rank advanced water attribute strange spirit he had dealt with in Taikang City.

However, under Yun Xiao's calculative and unsuspecting scheme, when his left hand touched the attack of the strange spirit, everything was already destined. As Yun Xiao's strength improved, the power of the ice cold ancestor vein in his left arm also had a significant enhancement.

Whoosh...

A wisp of cold air burst forth from the palm of Yun Xiao's left hand, causing the water attribute strange spirit to tremble. It immediately attempted to transform and escape from this ice cold attribute's assault.

It's a pity that since Yun Xiao had already succeeded, how could he possibly let it escape so easily?

In a short time, the ice cold power surged, seemingly affecting the air of the entire Denghai Pier, with an extreme chill flowing through the air.

Crack! Crack!

A series of freezing sounds rang out. The water attribute strange spirit barely had time to turn its body into a mass of water before it was frozen into a crystal-clear ice ball, looking very transparent and bright.

Whiz!

Yun Xiao reacted swiftly. This time, he didn't absorb the spirit crystal of the water attribute strange spirit into his body, but instead stored it in his waist storage. In this way, even the golden snake worm Xiao Wu would find it difficult to snatch it.

"Is... is this still a human?"

In this battle of one against seven, the powerful figures like Wu Yingjiang and Wu Tong were constantly fighting the strange spirits, yet they never ceased to pay attention.

At this moment, seeing Yun Xiao kill three strange spirits in the blink of an eye, a look of extreme disbelief flashed in their old eyes.

In fact, when Yun Xiao was surrounded by the seven half-step heavenly rank strange spirits earlier, even Wu Yingjiang, who had great confidence in him, felt extremely worried, believing he could at most protect himself, but counter-kill seemed nearly impossible.

Yet, in less than fifteen minutes, Yun Xiao devoured a fire attribute strange spirit, incinerated a wood attribute strange spirit, and froze a water attribute strange spirit. The events that occurred in this short period could only be described as overwhelming.

The human cultivators sensed it very clearly. Yun Xiao only exuded the peak cultivation aura of the Earth Bending Realm, and even when faced with the siege of seven half-step heavenly rank strange spirits, he hadn't even activated his five powerful ancestor veins.

"He is stronger than when he was in Moyun City!"

Jia Tianshu sighed, and the words he spoke made those around him nod in agreement. After all, when they first encountered the human-faced blood wing flower in Moyun City, Yun Xiao had indeed exerted his ancestor vein power.

At this moment, Yun Xiao not only fought one against seven, but he also hadn't activated his ancestor vein power, all indicating that Yun Xiao now faced these half-step heavenly rank strange spirits with increasing ease.

Indeed, as Yun Xiao swiftly killed three half-step heavenly rank strange spirits, the remaining four strange spirits undoubtedly felt a tremendous crisis.

They suddenly realized that their plan of gathering seven half-step heavenly rank strange spirits seemed to have underestimated this human young man. How could such a powerful figure appear among the human clan?

In the past, strange spirits of the same rank were the most powerful race. Not to mention human cultivators, even vein demons of the same rank would bow their heads in front of strange spirits.

This iron rule seemed completely reversed in this human young man. They were not only being suppressed by Yun Xiao, but were also each higher by a small realm than their opponents.

In the eyes of these half-step heavenly rank strange spirits, the only ones capable of doing this might only be those who had reached the heavenly spirit rank. Should it really require a heavenly spirit rank adult to deal with this human young strongman?

At the moment when the four half-step heavenly rank strange spirits were shocked, Yun Xiao had no such thoughts. Having reaped the benefits of refining spirit crystals, he only needed more half-step heavenly rank spirit crystals to reach the half-step heavenly rank himself.

Yun Xiao believed that as long as he could truly break through to the half-step heavenly rank, he should be able to have a fighting chance even against heavenly spirit rank strange spirits. This is what he urgently needed to achieve.

Now, the appearance of the seven half-step heavenly rank strange spirits was a godsend to Yun Xiao, so how could he not fully take advantage of the "goodwill" shown by the strange spirits?

Whiz!

Yun Xiao's silver fire thunder wings flapped gently, bringing him before one of the half-step ninth rank strange spirits. If the latter had facial features, it would surely show an extreme look of alarm.

Thud!

Yun Xiao thrust forward with the Dragon Taming Sword, yet unexpectedly, at this moment, the strange spirit suddenly transformed into a giant stone, and even the sharpness of the Dragon Taming Sword couldn't pierce it directly. Instead, this force knocked it flying.

"Huh? It seems to be a 'Green Gold Stone Spirit'!"

With his vast experience and keen eyesight, Yun Xiao immediately recognized the essence of the green-glowing stone as it flew off, a mix of appreciation and delight flashing in his eyes.

The Green Gold Stone is an exceptionally hard strange stone, scarcely seen even in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud. When refined alongside some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, it serves as an excellent aid in enhancing physical strength.

Its effect is even better than the Earth Flame Cold Stone Marrow Yun Xiao refined earlier. He never expected to encounter it on the Tenglong Continent, and recognizing it now as a Green Gold Stone Spirit, a smile naturally emerged in his heart.

The Green Gold Stone Spirit, having transformed back into a human form, felt a wave of panic. Although the Dragon Taming Sword did not entirely pierce through it earlier, it came close to a fatal blow, making it keenly aware of the unassuming wooden sword's power.

The Green Gold Stone Spirit believed that if the sword struck again, the indestructible wooden sword would surely cleave it in two, and with its spirit crystal taken, survival would be impossible.

Swish!

Yun Xiao, filled with joy in his heart, did not pause his movements. Since the Green Gold Stone Spirit had already distanced itself, naturally, he would not direct his focus solely on a single strange spirit.

He swiftly turned the sword's edge at an intricate angle, slashing at another strange spirit gleaming with a golden aura.

Wielding the Dragon Taming Sword, Yun Xiao refrained from attacking the shapeshifting foggy strange spirit, knowing the transformations of reality and illusion might render the sword ineffective.

This spirit, glowing in golden light, clearly a Gold Attribute Strange Spirit, boasted unmatched sharpness yet paled in comparison to the Dragon Taming Sword.

Perhaps having seen the Green Gold Stone Spirit sustain a slight crack, the Gold Attribute Strange Spirit grew wary and did not dare to confront the approaching Dragon Taming Sword head-on.

Swipe!

As the Gold Attribute Strange Spirit dodged, Yun Xiao appeared somewhat frustrated, throwing the wooden sword, attempting to strike the Gold Attribute Strange Spirit with the flying sword.

However, how could a Gold Attribute Strange Spirit, even at half-step Heavenly Rank, fail to evade such an attack? After a sidestep, the black shadow passed by, sending the Dragon Taming Sword flying far off.

All the strange spirit elites and human cultivators considered it a blunder, believing Yun Xiao had lost a mighty divine weapon by letting go of the fearsome sword, posing a significant challenge for the ensuing battle.

"Uwa!"

Seeing Yun Xiao without the indestructible wooden sword, the earlier escaping Green Gold Stone Spirit regained its confidence.

Boasting formidable physical strength as a Solid Stone Attribute spirit, its only fear was that divine wooden sword.

Now, with the opponent's divine weapon absent, the Green Gold Stone Spirit saw its chance, swiftly joined by the gleaming Gold Attribute Strange Spirit, launching powerful attacks on the human teenager in front of them.

What neither strange spirit elite perceived was the quick flicker of delight in Yun Xiao's eyes as they attacked in tandem, precisely what he had hoped for.

Yun Xiao's body subtly trembled, yet seemingly remained motionless, and in the subsequent moment, the Green Gold Stone and Gold Attribute Strange Spirits' attacks collided heavily with his body.

"Hmm?"

Both elites, top of their kind, sensed something amiss upon contact with Yun Xiao, as their strikes merely passed through his body without drawing blood.

This maneuver was one Yun Xiao had employed before, but so wondrous and enigmatic was it that they fell for it again, striking merrily at a phantom.

This time, Yun Xiao did more than merely evade. When his true form appeared elsewhere, his hands subtly formed a seal, and a dark light swiftly brightened behind the Metal Attribute Spirit.

Slash!

With a soft sound, the Dragon Taming Sword, transformed into a dark light, pierced through the back of the Gold Attribute Spirit, protruding from its chest, a glistening gold orb hanging from its tip.

It was evident that at this moment, Yun Xiao executed the first form of the Dragon Taming Nine Swords - Flying Hidden, a sword Meridian Technique adept at concealing its trace, achieving optimal effectiveness in its debut.

This Gold Attribute Spirit had clearly never encountered the Flying Hidden ultimate technique before, and was immediately caught. Not only was its body pierced, but under Yun Xiao's deliberate control, the sword ejected the Golden Light Spirit Crystal from its body.

Yun Xiao moved swiftly, extending his hand to effortlessly reclaim the obedient spirit crystal, while the Dragon Taming Sword continued unstoppably after piercing the Gold Attribute Spirit.

Considering the earlier joint attack on Yun Xiao by the Gold Attribute and Green Gold Stone Spirits, the close proximity of the two was evident after Yun Xiao's shadow clone escape.

The Dragon Taming Sword's dark light, having pierced the Gold Attribute Spirit, fiercely struck the Green Gold Stone Spirit. At this moment, the Green Gold Stone Spirit reverted to its Green Gold Stone form, attempting to withstand the mighty pierce.
