My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 1359 - 488: Escape (Part 2)
Chen Sansi had never seen it with his own eyes, but he had read about it in ancient books.
This Xuanzhu, refined from a mixture of various extremely evil Mystical Energy, could drive a cultivator who came into contact with it into madness!
Even standing far apart, the dantian and meridians in their bodies would start to riot.
This bead itself is not harmful, and for a witch, it is actually a great aid!
Jiang Xiyue had always covered her eyes with satin to deliberately avoid seeing scenes of slaughter and bloodshed, to prevent awakening the demon seed within her.
At this moment...
In the night sky, the Mystical Energy from the Xuanzhu, akin to a dying tree encountering the life-giving drizzle descended by a Bodhisattva, made the demon seed grow explosively as if reviving from dead wood!
The witch's cultivation soared once again!
Divinity Transformation Middle Stage!
Divinity Transformation Late Stage!
And still rising!
It had already surpassed the highest limit of the Heaven and Earth Laws of this place!
"Boom——"
The heavens outside the nine skies were filled with a deafening hum.
And then...
Rolling tribulation clouds gathered above their heads.
Thick clouds, like billions of pounds of molten gold stirred by an invisible force, boiled and pressed down heavily, stacking layer upon layer!
Furious golden beams boiled within the dark clouds, with every soundless collision twisting the sky, as if the entire heavens and earth were writhing in agony.
This is...
Golden Heavenly Tribulation!
"Crack——"
One bolt of lightning after another fell with savage fury.
Like thousands of True Dragons descending to the mortal world, they instantly trapped the witch and began tearing at her madly!
The witch could only endure it.
She screamed miserably amidst the thunder, the demonic qi on her body dissipating like smoke.
"Senior Sister!"
Seeing the situation becoming critical, Chen Sansi wanted to rush in to save her.
But this Heavenly Tribulation...
Even a Harmonization Cultivator might not survive, let alone someone like him, just a Nascent Soul cultivator, who couldn't even get close.
"Boom——"
The witch was trapped within thousands of lightning bolts, like an Ancient Demon Lord under seal, enduring countless punishments until her realm fell relentlessly, and the Heavenly Tribulation began to wane.
Mu Yun turned his palm, revealing a tattered piece of hemp cloth.
Liyi Heaven-Covering Cloth!
He waved his sword finger.
The Heaven-Covering Cloth flew into the sky, bathed in thunder, shielding the witch from above.
In an instant.
The witch's presence vanished, as if she never existed in this world!
Even the Heavenly Dao Laws could not find their target.
The black-gold tribulation clouds slowly began to disperse.
This Heaven-Covering Cloth could shield against the Heavenly Dao.
Of course, if a cultivator attempts a tribulation, even with this treasure, they cannot deceive the heavens and succeed, but can nonetheless preserve their life upon failure.
The witch survived the Heavenly Dao's punishment.
But the surface of her body was already covered with golden cracks, and the demonic qi on her body could not condense for a while. Her long hair turned from white to black as she fell into a coma, then plummeted straight down from the clouds like a bird with broken wings.
"Good tactic."
An Chuzhi praised.
"Capture the demon seed, the scheme continues."
Mu Yun calmly said, "Did you think we came unprepared?"
This bead was joint-refined by cultivators of the four realms.
"Senior Sister!"
Chen Sansi flew into the sky, catching the unconscious Jiang Xiyue.
Bai Suyin diagnosed her pulse: "She should not be in mortal danger, but she will probably sleep for a few days..."
"Daoist Chen Lei."
Mu Yun spoke, "You are a hero to Heavenly Water, a hero to the Human Race, I won't kill you. Put down Jiang Xiyue, and you can leave."
He still would not act personally.
This dirty work, he left for An Chuzhi to handle.
"Stop pretending!"
Chen Sansi said coldly, "If you don't want me dead, why is this man named An chasing me relentlessly!"
Mu Yun said, "That's your personal vendetta, nothing to do with me."
"You, the Supreme Elder of the Holy Sect, aren't even as good as a Demon Path cultivator, daring to kill yet not daring to admit!"
Chen Sansi held a sword in his left hand, a spear in his right hand: "Come if you dare, no more needless words!"
Mu Yun coldly smiled and raised his hand for a strike.
The vast mana of the Divinity Transformation Middle Stage surged like mountains and seas, crushing in.
Chen Sansi had no way to counterattack, feeling his internal organs and bones shatter as he spat blood and collapsed heavily.
Mu Yun did not deliver a killing blow, merely sent him flying back, then dusted off his sleeves and walked slowly towards Jiang Xiyue.
A graceful figure blocked his way.
"Oh?"
Mu Yun glanced sideways: "You little fox demon, not knowing life from death, dare to block me?"
Bai Suyin said nothing, spitting out a streak of light that fell into her palm, transforming into a pure white jade ruyi inlaid with gold.
"Jade Ruyi?"
Mu Yun said, "It's still in your hand?"
Bai Suyin looked back, tossing a storage bag: "Chen, take Xi Yue away, I'll hold them off, don't worry, I won't die anytime soon."
The claim that the Jade Ruyi was given to Ancestor Bai Ze was just a façade to protect the artifact.
After all, no one would be foolish enough to personally ask Ancestor Bai Ze.
"Don't even think of leaving!"
Mu Yun flashed forward, attempting to rush toward Jiang Xiyue, but a white mist suddenly exploded in front of him, soft like water yet hard as a copper wall, barring easy passage.
"Elder Mu Yun, you'll have to get past me first!"
The Jade Ruyi in Bai Suyin's hand burst with spirit light.
The Dharma, formed by the spirits of the ancestors, erupted as a giant nine-tailed fox, its fox eyes suspended like the sun and moon.
"Please, ancestors... assist me!"
As the fox shadow and her fleshly body overlapped, the void quivered, spiritual energy collapsed, and demon energy surged!
The blood-stained white robe flapped in the wind, as nine streaks of foxfire roared alight behind her.
Seeing this.
Chen Sansi naturally would not waste her goodwill, he stowed away the storage bag containing the Alchemy Furnace, holding his senior sister, and fleeing through the air.
"Damn you, wait for me!"
Lord Taishan also intended to leave, but his Escape Technique was much slower, caught by An Chuzhi's grasp, captured on the spot.
"Master..."
Chen Sansi naturally noticed what was happening behind, but he did not turn back, only using the threefold Blood Burning to desperately escape the battlefield.
An Chuzhi was about to continue the pursuit, when a gust of strong wind struck from behind him.
He turned to see a fox tail engulfed in ghostly blue flames, slicing at it with his sword, but as if striking a Heavenly Pillar, he was forced back a half step.
Within the Jade Ruyi, not only were the Dharma of the ancestors of the Fox Clan refined, but it also carried countless magical abilities, bringing Bai Suyin's cultivation briefly to the Divinity Transformation Realm.
"The Dharma within the Jade Ruyi can be used only once, and is the last card of the entire Qingqiu Fox Clan."
Mu Yun bewilderedly asked: "What relation do you have with that Chen fellow, to sacrifice the entire Qingqiu's benefit for him?"
"I'm not doing this for him."
Bai Suyin, blending with the Dharma, shouted fiercely at An Chuzhi, "Release Lord Taishan!"
"For that wastrel?!"
Mu Yun's face showed anger: "Vixen, prepare to die!"
He and An Chuzhi launched a joint attack against her.
Bai Suyin, relying only on the borrowed power of external objects and not her own Divine Skills, found herself running out of strength after more than twenty rounds.
Mu Yun seized the moment, shattering the Dharma with a palm strike.
Bai Suyin reverted to her original form, a snow-white nine-tailed fox, hitting the ground with a dull thud, her fur stained red with blood.
The Jade Ruyi lay dimly beside her.
This Ruyi was mainly for assistance, and with the Dharma exhausted, it had no means to fight across realms...
Mu Yun bent to pick up the Jade Ruyi: "It's quite a fine item."
"Daoist Mu Yun."
An Chuzhi returned after flying several hundred miles: "Couldn't find any trace of Chen Lei nearby, he likely got away."
"No matter, someone will lead us to them."
Mu Yun looked at the drunk man nearby: "Isn't that right, Daoist Mu?"
