Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 189 - 180 Jin Jiuxiao [4th Release, request for monthly votes!]
The Five Thunders Array ceased.
Lu Qingfeng landed on the ground, unable to help shaking his head.
In the days when the Spiritual Energy of the Changqing Realm had not yet revived, the Soul Searching Temple used the ’Evil-Slaying Five Thunders Array’ to deter countless petty villains, gaining a modest reputation across the entire Central Plains.
Lu Qingfeng had practiced "Heavenly Monarch Array Dao True Understanding", and the first powerful array he mastered was this one.
Upon arriving at Peak Rain Mountain, he set up this array first and foremost.
Moreover, it was the array enhanced five times, making it even stronger.
Not to mention three Foundation Establishment Cultivators, even a Spirit Void Practitioner approaching would be trapped momentarily, posing a significant threat.
Therefore,
when the three Foundation Establishment Elders from the Golden Wave Sect ascended the mountain, Lu Qingfeng did not even need to make a move himself; merely activating the array was enough to slay the three.
"Golden Wave Sect."
Lu Qingfeng looked towards the southeast, his face showing a trace of coldness.
First the Red Rainbow Sect, then Demon Extermination Castle, and now the Golden Wave Sect. Restricted by his injuries and considering the situation in the Juyun Mountain Range, Lu Qingfeng was reluctant to confront the two sects immediately.
Yet, the Golden Wave Sect insisted on provoking him.
If expectations held, Demon Extermination Castle would send someone before long, seeking to kill him.
"So be it."
"May as well resolve these two sects!"
Lu Qingfeng determined the direction, let out a roar, and the Iron Feathered Flying Eagle shot up from the depths of the forest. With a light step, Lu Qingfeng landed on its back.
Breaking through the skies.
...
Taoyun Peak.
Jin Jiuxiao was restless.
After advancing to the Spirit Void Stage, he often felt this way. Unconsciously stepping into the Heart Movement Stage, he became even more so. Often making irrational decisions, which is why Jin Jiuxiao relied heavily on Sun Li for everything, discussing all matters, big or small.
He feared that under the chaos wrought by a Heart Demon, he might make a mistake.
On this day,
Sun Li, Chang Chun, and Wang Gu, three elders, took advantage of the dark night to launch a surprise attack on Peak Rain Mountain, aiming to slay Lu Qingfeng.
Lu Qingfeng, merely at the Condensing Liquid Realm, should be easily handled by the three Great Elders. But Jin Jiuxiao felt exceedingly uneasy.
He always felt that something was not right.
"Is it a Heart Demon’s attack, or just a whim?"
Jin Jiuxiao was unsure, his thoughts were chaotic. He strenuously suppressed the irritation in his heart, his brows tightly knitted, "Unless Zhou Yuan or those three old men secretly protect him, Elder Sun, with his Body Tempering Realm cultivation, should not fail."
Before dealing with Lu Qingfeng, the Golden Wave Sect had already investigated—
Zhou Yuan of Luoxia Sect and Elder Sun were stationed at Jinyun Peak.
Yue Lingxi and Mei Qingyan, two Supreme Elders, had long left the Juyun Mountain Range for the Xuanyuan Water Realm.
No one in the Sky Pit Mine Region should be able to oppose Elder Sun and the others.
"Perhaps I’ve been overstrained these days, and the Heart Demon is about to descend again."
Jin Jiuxiao felt helpless.
Spirit Void Heart Movement, the restrictions it imposed on cultivators were truly too vast. Knowing neither when he would enter this realm, nor when the Heart Demon would visit, nor how many times it would visit, nor when he would pass through the Heart Movement Stage.
According to the records of predecessors.
Some cultivators passed through Spirit Void Heart Movement in just a decade, the Heart Demon visiting only once or twice.
Others could not pass through for hundreds of years, the Heart Demon endless, eventually either dying of old age or falling into the Demon Dao due to chaos caused by the Heart Demon, and ultimately bursting to death.
Jin Jiuxiao had practiced cultivation for many years, yet had remained in the Heart Movement Stage for seventy to eighty years. The Heart Demon had disturbed him seven times, causing extreme irritation.
If this time was another Heart Demon, it would be the eighth time.
Already surpassing many Spirit Void Practitioners.
Thinking thus, Jin Jiuxiao simply sat down cross-legged, began meditating to regulate his breath, and calm his mind.
In this way—
His agitation grew, and unease intensified.
"Hu hu!"
Jin Jiuxiao opened his eyes, unable to contain himself any longer, and was about to go to Peak Rain Mountain to check things out.
But at that moment—
"Thunder Prison!"
"Zhu Rong Demon God! Ju Mang Demon God!"
Boom boom boom!
A figure suddenly appeared in the hall of the Golden Wave Sect. The moment he appeared, he gripped the lightning, like a Thunder God himself, smashing down a Thunder Prison from Above Nine Heavens.
Directly engulfing Jin Jiuxiao.
At the same time, from within this person, two bizarre Demon Gods burst forth.
One of them, a Flame Demon God, held two big flags, flaring flames with every wave.
The other, an Emerald Demon God, held a piece of bamboo. With a gentle wave, vines grew within the hall, entangling towards Jin Jiuxiao.
Jin Jiuxiao’s eyes widened as he saw the newcomer—
"Lu Qingfeng!"
This shock was no small matter!
Elder Sun, Chang Chun, and Wang Gu, the three Great Elders went to the Sky Pit Mine to assault Lu Qingfeng, but who expected that the person himself would come to Taoyun Peak!

"Disaster!"
Jin Jiuxiao’s thoughts raced, calculating the time, he immediately felt that the odds were grim for Elder Sun and the others.
But for now, he had to deal with Lu Qingfeng first.
"A mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator dares to show off!"
Jin Jiuxiao’s eyes burned with anger, and with a gesture, a flying sword instantly circled around him. At first glance, it sparkled with spirit light, even more agile than the Second Rank Flying Sword Lu Qingfeng had just snatched from Elder Sun.
"Second Rank Flying Sword."
Lu Qingfeng shook his head internally.
A proud Spirit Void Practitioner and sect leader still wielding a Second Rank Magic Artifact, truly meager.
But Jin Jiuxiao remained oblivious.
This Sky-cutting Sword was the strongest magic artifact of the Golden Wave Sect, passed down through generations, its power immense. Despite being a Second Rank Magic Artifact, it was refined by him to an exceptional agility. With this flying sword, he was only matched by the leaders of the other three major sects throughout the Juyun Mountain Range.
He believed capturing Lu Qingfeng would be a piece of cake!
Swoosh!
The flying sword tore through the air, slashing towards Lu Qingfeng.
Controlling the sword with one hand and forming seals with another, dozens of Sword Qi churned around him. The Sword Qi not only protected his body but also divided and shot towards the void, aiming to shatter the Thunder Prison and destroy the two Demon Gods.
Jin Jiuxiao, having been in the Spirit Void Stage for a long time, was quite proficient in both sword control and Sword Qi techniques.
This provided a considerable boost to his combat power.
Alas.
He was facing Lu Qingfeng!
"Primordial Magnetic Destruction Sword Qi!"
Lu Qingfeng, controlling the Thunder Prison, saw the flying sword approaching. His fingers shaped like a claw, instantly released Sword Qi that subtly blended the Five Elements, brewing Primordial Magnetic Power.
The Primordial Magnetic Sword Qi enveloped the Sky-cutting Sword, and Jin Jiuxiao immediately felt his flying sword slipping out of control, his skilled sword control easily broken!
"Not good!"
Jin Jiuxiao realized the peril.
Swords like surging waves!
The surrounding Sword Qi grew denser.
At that moment, the Thunder Prison descended.
Boom, boom, boom!
Streaks of thunder flashed, striking Jin Jiuxiao, shattering the Sword Qi around him. Just then, the Zhu Rong Demon God, wielding two Fiery Fire Divine Banners, swooped in and with a fierce wave, engulfed Jin Jiuxiao in fierce flames.
"Run!"
Jin Jiuxiao tried to move.
Vines, unknown when they appeared, tightly bound him. Though he broke free in an instant, that brief delay proved fatal—
Thunder rampaged!
Fierce flames scattered!
"Ah!"
Jin Jiuxiao let out a miserable scream as the thunder struck his face and flames scorched his flesh.
What about the surrounding Sword Qi?
Already dispersed, utterly ineffective.
But whether it was the Thunder Prison or the fierce flames, both were still a bit lacking.
Lu Qingfeng stepped forward, rubbing his hands together, and within and without him, Divine Power Talismans flashed with spirit light. Suddenly, an intense light surged—
"Great Sun Annihilation Divine Light!"
The Divine Light broke through the air, striking unexpectedly.
"No!"
Jin Jiuxiao roared, but with wide-open eyes, he saw the Divine Light smash into his face.
Boom!
A burst of white light filled his eyes, his mind thundered. The next moment, his consciousness faded.
