339. Chapter 334: The Demon King Displays His Power
Inside the Tian Yuan, the Tiger King transformed into a kitten, lying on the old beggar's head, looking around to find the Huanyu cultivators within the Tian Yuan.
"Human pet, as my mount,
from now on, don't think about escaping.
Your life soul has been sealed by me; if you have any thought of leaking secrets, your life soul will explode directly.
At that time, even your physical body in the real world will not be spared."
The kitten transformed from the Tiger King gently stroked the old beggar's head with its cute paws, like an adult coaxing a child.
Damn it, I really have to thank you!
The old beggar's body shuddered.
He used to swindle others, but now he has become the mount of a cat.
The kitten constantly admonished him in a teaching tone, which made the old beggar feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Reporting to the lord, the Sha Gui Sect specializes in the Ghost Dao.
They have escaped from my hands many times.
Since the two cultivators behind the old beggar are willing to travel with him, their strength will certainly not be low."
We ten people are all strong in the Di Yuan Realm; what are we afraid of them for?
As for the kitten and the monkey being ignored by him, what threat could they pose with their bowl-sized mouths?
"Human pet, how much do you know about the Sha Gui Sect?"
Moreover, this place is still the Tian Yuan, shrouded in corpse qi, which is advantageous to us and can greatly enhance the strength of the ghost puppets.
Li Bai heard this, and his eyes gradually became sharp.
Li Shi Xiong heard the words of Criminal Sentence, and thought to himself.
"After wearing out iron shoes to find no place, it comes easily without effort.
The old beggar, upon encountering the cultivators, said.
Ghost puppets are yin things that appear and disappear mysteriously; if one's strength is not strong enough, it is difficult to resist them.
Tian Yuan is a mysterious ancient corpse land, long shrouded in thick corpse qi, with spirit-communicating fierce ghosts wandering in its depths.
Oh heavens.
Has the karmic retribution been too harsh on the old man?
"Hand over all the Tian Jing on your persons.
The old beggar is a cultivator at the peak of the Di Yuan Realm, and his cultivation method is very strange.
Moreover.
The Sha Gui Sect cultivators have an innate geographical advantage within the Tian Yuan, and their strength will be even greater at the same realm.
At this moment.
A man beside the white-clothed person spoke.
"Senior Brother Li and them are wasting words; just the three of them plus two little magic beasts.
"He is Li Shi Xiong of the Sha Gui Sect.
The old beggar once let you escape; this time, it won't be so easy."
Ten cultivators resting beside a large boulder heard the old beggar's voice and discovered Li Bai's group.
Upon hearing the old man's words, the Tiger King rested his chin and carefully sized him up.
Otherwise, don't blame my Holy Infant Banner for being merciless.
The Tiger King asked.
Sha Gui Sect cultivators are bound by contract to ghost puppets; once they fight an enemy, it is equivalent to two against one.
"Hmm, is it the old beggar who sells fake maps?"
Sha Gui Sect cultivators use cruel methods, often slaughtering cultivators to extract their soul power to feed the contracted fierce ghosts, which is extremely vicious.
I, Li Shi Xiong, will let you suffer less torment.
Earlier, when entering the Primordial Realm, I saw the Sha Gui Sect's disciples mocking new Huanyu cultivators; now I know they had something to rely on.
"Li Shi Xiong, don't think that just because you are a Sha Gui Sect disciple, I fear you.
The white-clothed man of the Sha Gui Sect crossed his arms over his chest and spoke to Zhi Dun's group in a commanding tone.
As the cultivation level of the Sha Gui Sect cultivators increases, the cultivation level of the ghost puppets also increases, allowing the cultivator and the fierce ghost to fight enemies simultaneously.
Upon entering the sect, cultivators must, after feeling spiritual power enter their bodies, capture a fierce ghost to sign a ghost contract and raise the ghost puppet.
"Criminal Sentence, you don't understand.
The leading white-clothed man had a ghost-head token hanging from his waist, stood up from the ground, and coldly laughed.
The Sha Gui Sect is one of the major forces in the Primordial Spiritual Realm introduced by Zhi Dun.
Following the white-clothed man's order, several companions on the scene surrounded Li Bai and the others.
The Sha Gui Sect is nothing; its disciples are all yin and gloomy fellows.
I have heard before.
Before cultivating in the Sha Gui Sect, one must leave a bloodline in the secular world.
And now it seems.
After joining the Sha Gui Sect, they are all fellows who have been cut off at the root."
The old beggar spoke disdainfully, his face full of contempt.
"Is the Sha Gui Sect not a sect of eunuchs?"
Li Bai, upon hearing the old beggar's words, said.
In ancient times, the Great Xia have always said that ghosts are yin things, which damage the human body's primordial yang; if one spends a long time with a person, they can drain the person's yang energy and transform it into yin, and such a person cannot bear children.
The Great Xia Xuanzong Northern Emperor's School of Feng Shui also records that the pagoda tree is a ghost tree, and one should not sit on its eastern side, for it easily summons souls and damages yang; if the pagoda tree is soaked in corpse oil and buried deep within a building, it can alter the feng shui and bury the ghost, cutting off its roots.
I did not expect that.
The practitioners of the Ghost Dao of the Chagui Sect in Huanyu have actually verified the writings of the ancient sages of Great Xia.
"Kill them.
And those two little beasts, the cat with its fur standing on end, split open, the monkey with its skin peeled off."
Li Shixiong was struck in a vital point by the old beggar's words, choked by Li Bai's words until his face flushed red, and he roared angrily.
The disciples of the Chagui Sect present looked very young, obviously having never engaged in sexual relations.
Li Bai's single sentence about the Eunuch Sect struck straight to the heart of the Chagui Sect cultivators, and they all glared with eyes ready to burst.
"You damned wretch, I will surely take good care of you."
A cultivator of the Chagui Sect, like a swift sword, had the hooked blade in his hand flash with light, hooking toward Li Bai's neck.
"Poisonous?"
Li Bai showed a hint of wariness in his eyes, stamped his foot and kicked out fiercely, striking the cultivator's right hand that held the hook, and taking advantage of the momentum, he distanced himself from the cultivator.
That hook was like a crescent moon, with black smoke swirling upon it, clearly laced with deadly poison; if it grazed a cultivator, it could cause the enemy to die instantly.
"Dongran, haven't you eaten?"
Xingmo grabbed Dongran's shoulder as he retreated, angrily saying.
"Yin people have always been soft and weak, lacking strength is quite normal.
After all, they are just things that cannot fill with blood, unable to rise."
Li Bai and the other Chagui Sect cultivators were entangled in combat, he turned his head and laughed loudly.
"The Yin Sha Ghost King enters my yin body, open."
Dongran's face was extremely gloomy, he took out a white talisman in his hand, on which was drawn an incomparably ferocious ghost symbol.
As he silently chanted the incantation, the ghost talisman was ignited by a green flame.
Boom.
A powerful aura exploded from Dongran's body, mysterious and strange symbols appeared on his face, and a skull shadow the size of a football hovered above his head.
That skull shadow was black, with green flames spewing from its eyes, and it emitted a terrifying jie jie jie sound from its mouth.
"Ghost possession."
Li Bai kicked a Chagui Sect disciple flying with one foot, his eyes showing a hint of interest.
As the old beggar said, Dongran and his ghost puppet are actually at the peak of the Di Yuan Realm.
If directed against other cultivators, it would certainly make the opponent very troublesome.
But Dongran faces the Immortal Poet Li Bai.
The Golden Core Dao is invincible against peers of the same realm; even when encountering a Huanyu cultivator at the great completion of the Di Yuan Realm, he can still contend.
"The waterfall flies straight down three thousand feet, as if the Milky Way has fallen from the nine heavens."
Li Bai's hand condensed spiritual power into a foot-long giant brush, gathering corpse qi into ink,
As the poem took shape, a brilliant apparition appeared in the field.
The gloomy sky and abyss were replaced by ten thousand miles of clear sky, above which the sun and moon appeared together, stars gathered and transformed into a silver Milky Way, which, above the waterfall, poured down from the heavens in a slanting torrent, the vast and mighty sound shaking the wilderness.
The radiance of the sun and moon shone brightly upon the silver Milky Way, woven from gold and silver treasures into a great yin-yang fish pattern.
Hualahualah.
After Dongran summoned his ghost puppet, his eyes were hollow, devoid of any emotion, as he waved the hook in his hand, spiritual power transformed into nine black long serpents that followed the ghost puppet's skull head toward Li Bai.
Boom
On the silver Milky Way, the yin-yang fish kept rotating, just as the nine black long serpents, following Dongran's ghost puppet's skull head, collided with it.
A violent explosion sounded, just like cold water poured on red-hot iron, producing a sizzling sound.
Woo woo woo.
The ghost puppet seemed to have encountered something terrifying, and within the ferocious storm it let out a violent wail.
Crack.
Within the storm came the sound of breaking, and a figure burst out from within.
Pu.
Dongran rolled three times on the ground before stabilizing his form; when he tried to rise, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
"That gold and silver yin-yang fish actually destroyed my ghost puppet.
Who exactly are you people?"
As Dongran's words fell, he let out a mournful howl, countless black killing qi pierced through his body from within, his body rapidly dissolved, leaving behind a black flag on the ground.
"Dongran."
Xingmo's eyes showed fear.
Although the Chagui Sect's Ghost Dao secret method can refine ghost puppets to greatly increase a cultivator's strength, far surpassing peers of the same realm,
it has a fatal flaw.
Chagui Sect disciples, to nourish their ghost puppets, must absorb the killing qi from all directions into their bodies, using the ghost puppet to suppress it; if the ghost puppet dies, the terrifying killing qi stored within the body will directly devour the soul and spirit.
"You dare kill my Chagui Sect disciples; from now on, in the Primordial Spirit Realm, you will have no place to stand."
Li Shixiong's eyes were gloomy and ruthless, his fellow sect members one dead, several injured.
He truly did not expect that the two together with the old beggar would be this strong.
That bald-headed person chanted a spell, and behind him, a golden body illuminated the four directions.
The ghost puppets of the Chagui Sect disciples were like mice seeing a cat, letting out woo woo woo cries.
Since its founding, the Sha Gui Sect has never encountered such a strange situation.
Li Shixiong saw Zhidun's methods and was extremely angry in his heart.
"Form the Holy Infant Grand Array."
Li Shixiong's hair stood on end with rage, black mist spread from his entire body, and a large black flag manifested in his hand.
The runes on the black flag complemented each other, like smoke bombs exploding, killing intent surging, a horned ghost infant tore through the killing intent and appeared in everyone's sight.
Ah ah ah.
As soon as the ghost infant appeared, it howled at the sky, as if it were a mysterious summoning order, countless resentful spirits were summoned from within the black Holy Infant Grand Flag, and the wandering souls howling around actually also quickly gathered to this place.
Then the other cultivators of the Sha Gui Sect saw this, and similarly, a black Holy Infant Grand Flag appeared in their hands.
The difference was that the flag was obviously much smaller than the one in Li Shixiong's hand, and the runes on it were also different.
Within those eight black Holy Infant Grand Flags, a horned ghost infant similarly appeared, upon birth it stirred the wind and clouds, summoning the yin spirits of the ten directions.
The scene was filled with ghostly howls shaking the four fields, nearby towering giant trees were instantly turned to dust, huge stones shattered into dust and were blown in all directions.
"Although we lack Dong Ran, lacking one Holy Infant, the flag cannot fully unleash the peak combat power of the Holy Infant Grand Array.
But dealing with you three is enough."
Li Shixiong's eyes were filled with raging killing intent, he said sternly.
"Get lost, stinky cat.
After I slaughter those two, I will definitely split you in half vertically."
A Sha Gui Sect disciple maintaining the Holy Infant Grand Array saw the previous cat jump to within one zhang beside him, and kicked with one corner toward the cat transformed from the Tiger King.
However, at this moment, a strange scene appeared.
Just as that Sha Gui Sect disciple's foot was about to approach the cat, suddenly, a huge tiger head ten zhang high appeared.
With one mouth, it directly swallowed that Sha Gui Sect disciple into its mouth.
Gulu gulu.
A black Holy Infant Grand Flag was spat out from the mouth of the huge tiger head, and then the huge tiger head quickly shrank into a cat-head shape.
"I cao, the cat ate a person."
The Sha Gui Sect disciple's eyes shrank directly, his face full of disbelief.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
The companion just kicked the cat with one corner, and then there was no cat that directly swallowed him, finally only leaving one Holy Infant Grand Flag.
"Ah!"
At this moment, several more mournful howls sounded in the field.
A huge golden ape appeared in the field, the palm of that giant ape was over two zhang wide, at this moment each hand held two heads of Sha Gui Sect disciples, and both hands instantly caused the Sha Gui Sect cultivators to lose four companions.
Those disciples were as if they had fainted, being held by the heads by the giant ape, their bodies dangled under the effect of gravity.
Before the eyes of Li Shixiong and others.
The golden giant ape took out a black bag from its hand, the black bag's mouth had runes complementing each other, facing the dazed companions of the Sha Gui Sect, it covered them, a mysterious power wrapped them.
Li Shixiong and others fearfully discovered.
The dazed companions' bodies slowly shrank, being sucked into the black bag.
Immediately after.
The giant ape turned into a cute little monkey, except the monkey had an extra black bag in its hand, which it kept shaking.
"Haha, another four pets."
The Monkey King's piercing voice echoed in the minds of the Sha Gui Sect disciples, the latter felt a tingling on their scalps.
"Just now I heard what, that monkey can actually speak.
Damn, what kind of magic beast is this, it can even change at will.
Hurry hurry hurry, stay away from those two little beasts."
Li Shixiong heard his companions' words, his face solemn, a sense of fear rose in his heart.
In the moment of negligence, losing four companions, still being harassed by those two little beasts they ignored.
The Sha Gui Sect disciples present suffered one death and four captures, instantly losing five.
"Too terrifying..."
The old beggar was dumbfounded, everything before his eyes was too dramatic, he knew the cat and monkey were strong, but the displayed methods were too terrifying.
The Sha Gui Sect disciples present were all at the peak and middle stages of the Earth Origin Realm, yet they were just like that, muddled and confused, dealt with five by the cat and monkey.
Haha, old man, you matched with the cat, from now on you can walk sideways in the Primordial Spirit Realm.
The old beggar's heart was very excited, his dissatisfaction swept away.
"Tiger Lord wants that pet, no one else shall snatch it."
The Tiger King transformed into a cat stood on the old beggar's head, stood upright, and pointed his forepaws at Li Shixiong, howling.
"Li Li Shixiong.
That cat can actually speak human words, wants to capture you as a pet?"
Criminal Sentence Mo struggled to swallow his saliva, his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
The Holy Infant Grand Flag on his head trembled for a moment, the huge Holy Infant actually began to slowly become illusory.
"Do not let them deceive you.
They are using some kind of illusion Divine Ability, do not be fooled."
Li Shixiong struggled to suppress the fear in his heart, and said to the companions present.
"I know that among the cultivators of Huanyu, there is a powerful sect that specializes in illusion arts, able to transform ordinary grass, wood, earth, and stone into terrifying creatures, attack unexpectedly, take enemy heads in an instant.
How could magic beasts possibly speak?"
Who among you has heard of this?
It must be an illusion performed by the two beside the old beggar, and we must not fall for their trick.
As long as we remain vigilant, the dangers in the illusion cannot affect us.
Li Shixiong said, gathering his companions to stand back-to-back in a four-corner formation.
This way, we only need to face sudden dangers, without needing to guard against enemies sneaking up on us.
"Human pets.
Your imagination is too rich."
The Tiger King's eyes emitted brilliant light as he stared at the four huge ghost infants and said.
That ghost infant is powerful and can command wandering souls and wild ghosts; its wail seems able to disturb a cultivator's soul.
If we obtain the method to craft the Holy Infant Banner, when earthly cultivators arrive, each wielding a Holy Infant Banner for group battle, their power will surely be terrifying. (End of chapter)
