Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor-Chapter 1001: Then Come and Try!

"You do have some skill!"

Watching the reassembled Fog Spirit, Yun Xiao wasn't too surprised. After all, he had encountered countless Strange Spirits before, and these spirits are different from human Vein Demons. Even if they're beheaded, it doesn't necessarily mean death.

There are generally two ways to deal with Strange Spirits. One is to obtain their Strange Spirit Crystals, and the second is to remove the Spiritual Wisdom they cultivated.

Like during the Spirit Fighting Conference, the Meridian Spirit of the business heir Xu Huan was a Strange Spirit with its Spiritual Wisdom erased, and it was much stronger than ordinary Vein Demons.

Breaking apart and reassembling is absolutely impossible for humans or Vein Demons, but for some special Strange Spirits, it's quite common.

The Strange Spirits earlier simply didn't have the opportunity to perform this method before Yun Xiao froze them into exquisite ice sculptures. However, this Eighth Rank Advanced Meridian Spirit reacted and moved much faster, rendering Yun Xiao's attempt ineffective. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

But Yun Xiao wasn't discouraged. He had just broken through to the Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage days ago, and needed a suitable opponent to solidify his suddenly increased cultivation. Thus, an extraordinary battle erupted suddenly.

In the end, Yun Xiao proved to be the more skillful one. About a dozen moves in, the not-so-intelligent Strange Spirit was inadvertently touched on its true body by Yun Xiao's left arm finger, and then, the Ice Cold Ancestor Vein Power swept out, forming a Fog Spirit ice sculpture instantly.

The Fog Spirit, frozen into an ice sculpture, naturally couldn't break apart and reassemble again. It became sustenance for the Dragon Tree Spirit Little Dragon, just like the Eighth Rank Mid and Low Level Fog Spirits.

In the following days, Yun Xiao consistently battled the Eighth Rank Advanced Fog Spirit. Meanwhile, Little Dragon's cultivation steadily increased—from Seventh Rank Low Level, it reached the peak of Seventh Rank Advanced, just one step away from truly breaking into Eighth Rank Low Level.

From this point, Yun Xiao finally understood what Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu meant when he said Little Dragon was exceptionally gifted. Crossing a Great Rank in several days was simply impossible for Yun Xiao.

All this was thanks to those special Fog Spirits. These powerful Fog Spirits continuously supplied nutrients to Little Dragon, enabling such significant improvement.

This showed that with enough nourishment, Little Dragon's cultivation speed would be exceedingly fast. However, Fog Spirits are exceptionally rare, and other Strange Spirits rarely interest Little Dragon. Finding another such opportunity might not be that easy.

"Hmm?"

On this day, whether it was morning or afternoon, Yun Xiao suddenly looked up, and the next moment let out an exclamation. He suddenly noticed the mist above his head was gone, revealing a sky of blue and clouds.

After climbing in the foggy Treasure Mountain for several days, even Yun Xiao felt a bit frustrated. Now, with the clouds dispersing and sunlight shining, his mood instantly lifted.

However, Yun Xiao didn't completely relax. The sudden change was too odd and abrupt. It's hard to believe there's no reason behind it—the most likely possibility being someone unintentionally triggered a special mechanism, or perhaps the final test was about to arrive.

Bang!

As Yun Xiao looked up at the sky, a loud sound suddenly reached his ears. Immediately, a familiar silhouette was sent flying back, landing nearby.

"Senior Sister Mo Qing!"

Seeing this, Yun Xiao was shocked. The flying figure was none other than his dear Senior Sister Mo Qing, and judging by her condition, she wasn't doing too well.

Clearly, Fog Spirits encountered here were all at least Eighth Rank Advanced level, and the one that sent Mo Qing flying was no exception.

Yun Xiao couldn't understand how Mo Qing, with her Early Stage cultivation, managed to endure here, but after sensing briefly, he realized the truth.

"Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage!"

Apparently, during these past seven or eight days, Mo Qing unknowingly broke through to the Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage. Yun Xiao knew with her Pure Yang Immortal Body, even Eighth Rank Middle Level Vein Demons might not stand a chance against her.

So Yun Xiao somewhat guessed how Mo Qing managed here, but he didn't ponder long, as the Fog Spirit, having just sent Mo Qing flying, relentlessly pursued her as if determined to end her once and for all.

Seeing this, Yun Xiao didn't hesitate. He knew Mo Qing likely suffered severe internal injuries beneath the last strike. If the Eighth Rank Advanced Fog Spirit hit her again, she might end in instant peril.

Yun Xiao's action was swift, aiming at what the enemy must save. The Eighth Rank Advanced Fog Spirit, having never seen Yun Xiao's Ice Cold Ancestor Vein Power, stretched its right arm and collided with Yun Xiao's right palm.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The sound of freezing echoed through, then the Eighth Rank Advanced Fog Spirit, under Mo Qing's astonished gaze, was frozen into an ice sculpture and subsequently collected by Yun Xiao into his Waist Storage.

Such a scene undoubtedly shocked Mo Qing greatly. Though she had seen Yun Xiao's Ice Cold Ancestor Vein on the Hidden Dragon Continent and knew its power, she hadn't expected it to be overwhelmingly stronger.

That was an Eighth Rank Advanced Strange Spirit, in Mo Qing's view, even some human cultivators who had reached the Late Stage or even the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm couldn't handle it so easily, could they?

Yet Yun Xiao managed to do it right in front of her eyes, with just one strike, he turned that Fog Spirit into an ice sculpture, gone forever. While Mo Qing secretly let out a sigh of relief, a sense of shock began to overwhelm her.

"Senior Sister Mo Qing, you..."

Swish!

After Yun Xiao took in the ice sculpture of the Fog Spirit, he turned around with a smile, just as he was about to say something, a deadly danger suddenly surged, causing his hair to stand on end. Instinctively, he lunged forward and rolled with Mo Qing to the ground.

With Yun Xiao's reaction and speed, he could have easily dodged to the side, but in that split second, he realized that while he could evade the ambush, Mo Qing was right in front of him, and without defense, she might perish.

Therefore, to avoid unnecessary trouble, Yun Xiao made a quick decision to evade together with Mo Qing.

Although Yun Xiao's move seemed extremely reckless, it ultimately caused the attack, which was like a strike coming from the heavens, to miss its target. When they climbed back up from the ground, they finally saw who had launched the ambush.

"Bai Wushuang!"

Yun Xiao's face turned somewhat grim, to be honest, the first thought that crossed his mind was that an Eighth Rank Advanced Fog Spirit was launching the attack; however, he hadn't anticipated that it would be the number one genius of the Heavenly Hospital.

Upon seeing Bai Wushuang for the first time, Yun Xiao realized that compared to those vicious Fog Spirits that only knew how to attack, this fellow had the deepest hatred for him.

What Yun Xiao hadn't anticipated was that at such a critical moment, Bai Wushuang could hide in the shadows and launch an ambush, perhaps he had arrived at this place long ago.

"Damn it!"

With Yun Xiao and Mo Qing's faces clouded over here, Bai Wushuang, having failed his ambush, naturally wouldn't be in a good mood. Indeed, he had been hiding to the side long before, yet he didn't expect such a surprise attack to be evaded by those two.

Bai Wushuang had immense confidence in his own strength, and his Concealing Technique was truly potent. In his view, it was not inferior to the assassination techniques of the Killing Heart Sect.

In Bai Wushuang's mind, that divine ambush was supposed to at least take down Yun Xiao at the scene; if not, then Mo Qing, who had just broken through to the Middle Stage of Seeking Origin Realm, would surely be unable to evade.

Due to the previous upheavals, Bai Wushuang knew that he could never win Mo Qing's affection again, and for someone like him, if he couldn't have something himself, he definitely wouldn't want others to have it. So, he was determined to ruin Mo Qing, leaving Yun Xiao with nothing.

Unfortunately, Bai Wushuang's grand schemes proved futile, as Yun Xiao embraced Mo Qing and rolled away from this deadly strike. How could he accept this?

"The geniuses of the Heavenly Hospital are indeed always so despicable!"

After staring at Bai Wushuang for a moment, Yun Xiao couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, a stronger surge of killing intent rising in his heart; he truly wanted to eliminate such a person.

"I've said it before, none of you will leave Treasure Mountain alive!"

Unwilling to show weakness, Bai Wushuang declared, seeing as Yun Xiao no longer had Ye Ku as a sidekick, he believed that his cultivation at the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm meant dealing with two Middle Stage individuals would be effortless.

"Then come and try it!"

A faint icy aura twirled between Yun Xiao's fingers, if he could easily handle an Eighth Rank Advanced Fog Spirit, why would he fear a human genius at the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm? He hadn't even displayed many of his tricks yet.

"Roar!"

However, at this tense moment, a roar suddenly came from behind Yun Xiao and Mo Qing, and Bai Wushuang's eyes instantly gleamed with an unusual light; this seemed to be a sudden delight.

"Senior Sister Mo Qing, be careful!"

When Yun Xiao felt the violent aura behind him, he didn't have time to think, he pushed hard on Mo Qing's back beside him, then pushed her several meters away.

Bang!

Then, when a powerful force struck, due to having pushed Mo Qing away earlier, Yun Xiao had no way to dodge at this point, so he could only rely on his physical strength to take this heavy blow.
