Chapter 87: White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash VS Nascent Soul
"Damn the Yanyue Sect! Once this lady recovers her strength and the sect seizes the entire Yue Kingdom Cultivation World, I will surely extract the souls and refine the spirits of every single one of you in the Yanyue Sect."
These words, one after another, were spewed out in a continuous stream of curses by a tiny black figure only an inch tall.
The features of this figure were exactly the same as the beautiful woman among the Twin Demons of Fat and Beauty, only much more youthful; it was clearly the Nascent Soul of that beautiful woman.
Her physical body was destroyed, and if she continued to remain within it, her Nascent Soul would inevitably face the fate of rotting and perishing, so she naturally had to leave to find a new body to perform possession.
Yet, she had not encountered a single female cultivator who met her requirements so far.
The Yue Kingdom Cultivation World had no cultivation sects or families arranged by their Hehuan Sect; it was not as if there was no Yanyue Sect, but the Yanyue Sect had now turned against them directly.
Furthermore, she had fallen into this state because of the Yanyue Sect, so it was naturally impossible for her to let the Yanyue Sect help her find a body again.
In just a few breaths, the giant black python of demonic energy was slashed to nothing, causing even the demonic clouds to dissipate and fade by a few degrees.
Yet Yan Taibai remained unmoved, his smile undiminished as he said respectfully.
"I never imagined you had also cultivated such a powerful sword technique. You are truly worthy of being the legendary Golden Body; such aptitude and talent are truly heart-stirring. If you were not a man, you would certainly be the best choice for possession. What a pity."
A voice of regret from the beautiful woman echoed within the demonic clouds.
Her mung-bean-sized eyes blinked, revealing a look of surprise, and then she spat out a mouthful of black mist that enveloped her entire body, finally disappearing from sight.
But Yan Taibai was exceptionally clear-headed and smiled.
Seeing this scene, Yan Taibai raised an eyebrow without any panic.
As soon as the words fell, the beautiful woman did not answer, and what answered Yan Taibai were more than ten black blades.
When the two collided, they emitted a harsh, strange "zi-la zi-la" sound.
However, she still intended to search his soul to obtain the ancient cultivation method that Yan Taibai practiced.
These were all Dharma Treasures, far beyond what Top-tier Magical Tools could compare to.
A voice of surprise and astonishment from the beautiful woman echoed within the demonic clouds.
The giant black python of demonic energy from just a moment ago was something even an ordinary Golden Core Stage Cultivator would find difficult to handle; if lucky, they might flee in panic and survive by chance, but if unlucky, they would find it hard to escape death.
"If the senior only has these methods and techniques, then it truly disappoints this junior."
One could see that the silk handkerchiefs painted with erotic art that had just appeared before Yan Taibai were all torn, severed, and destroyed by the sword light, ceasing to exist.
The opponent's actions also gave him much more confidence.
If he were weak, it would be difficult to make up for it later.
After all, there must be no shortage of disciples with good aptitude in cultivation sects.
The beautiful woman was very clear about this point, so she could only rely on herself to find a new body.
"You truly do not know how to live. Since that is the case, I will grant your wish and extract your soul to refine your spirit."
"Is it still the Ghost Spirit Sect?"
Afterwards, the demonic clouds churned, and more than ten black pythons, each a foot thick like a water barrel, rushed out of the clouds, whistling toward Yan Taibai with their blood-red maws wide open.
Yet Yan Taibai was nervous and worried to the extreme in his heart; having cultivated for so long, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Before the words had even faded, a voice of near-shameful rage and resentment echoed within the demonic clouds.
"A semi-Dharma Treasure—your fortune is truly not small. However, I do not intend to keep playing with you. Since you are unwilling to hand over a portion of your Nascent Soul, then go to your death!"
He himself was also looking for a way to break the situation and escape, but to leave, he had to find the beautiful woman's Nascent Soul; otherwise, leaving was almost impossible.
Sss-la!!!
But his expression was incomparably solemn, because he knew very well that the "erotic art" before him was actually the beautiful woman's Dharma Treasure.
"This is Jianzhou, I will go to Huangfeng Valley. As long as I am careful, with Huangfeng Valley's meager strength, it is impossible for them to discover me. It just so happens that I can hide there to recover my strength, and when the sect and the other sects invade, I can also help from within."
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Thinking this in her heart, the beautiful woman headed straight for Huangfeng Valley.
For a moment, Yan Taibai went through the Demonic Path forces he had offended, and these three were the most likely candidates.
"Shoo!"
But Yan Taibai still greatly surprised her, causing her attacks to miss twice in a row.
The beautiful woman chuckled and admitted it directly.
Therefore, he had to seize the time to break through to the Golden Core Stage and refine his Life-Bound Magical Treasure so that he could truly master and control the power of the "Geng Metal True Essence" within his dantian.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that in just these few days, little friend has already advanced to the late Foundation Establishment Stage. Such a cultivation speed is truly shocking. You are worthy of being the Golden Body; it really makes this slave envious."
Yan Taibai brought her greater and greater surprises, making her feel reluctant to extract his soul and refine his spirit.
Then, sounds like cloth being torn rose one after another, ringing incessantly in the ears.
Suddenly, explosions followed one after another, demonic energy raged, and sword light shone brilliantly, making one's heart jump with fear.
Yan Taibai laughed softly, feeling confident and fearless.
On the silk handkerchief, there were likewise patterns of dual cultivation, only the spiritual light was much dimmer; it was unknown if this was the beautiful woman's Life-Bound Magical Treasure.
It was Yan Taibai, and just as he passed the place where the beautiful woman had previously disappeared, his expression changed abruptly, and he was just about to change direction.
Seeing that there had been no movement for a long time, Yan Taibai, who had fully prepared his defenses, then cupped his hands and said.
Although Yan Taibai's sword technique just now surprised her quite a bit, he was ultimately only a late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator; if he were a Golden Core Stage cultivator, she might have been wary.
However, at the same time, the Top-tier Magical Tool in Yan Taibai's hand also shattered and turned completely into dust.
Although Huangfeng Valley was far inferior to the Hehuan Sect or even the Yanyue Sect, it was, after all, one of the Seven Sects of Yue Kingdom.
Next, the sword moved like a dragon, and thousands of golden lights erupted, turning into streaks of sharp Golden Sword Qi that flew away, heading straight for the whistling black pythons.
However, the Golden Light Protective Shield around Yan Taibai's body resisted the erosion of the demonic energy firmly.
In an instant, golden, extremely sharp sword light poured out like a torrential rain.
Yan Taibai had also taken out the Black Blood Blade of the Black Fiend Cult leader, but after being improved by a master refiner he had found, it had become a semi-Dharma Treasure.
Now it seemed that was impossible; since that was the case, she would say no more.
Instead, she flicked her sleeves, and a long sword was in her hand!
"It is truly a waste for someone with your aptitude to stay in the Yanyue Sect."
But it was a step too late; a demonic cloud of Yin energy, appearing as if it could cover the sky, emerged in all directions around him, trapping him within like a cage.
As for Spirit Beast Mountain, which was related to the Yuling Sect, she could not go there, otherwise, she would surely die.
"Hehe! Even if only a Nascent Soul remains, it is not something a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator like you can resist. The chasm between us is simply not something the sword Dao divine ability you practice can bridge. Since you are so reckless, I have no choice but to extract your soul and refine your spirit, then take your body back to the sect and hand it over to the Great Elder."
Like a black meteor, it struck the Golden Light Protective Shield around Yan Taibai, emitting an explosive sound and causing cracks to appear in the Golden Light Protective Shield that should have been indestructible.
Hearing this, Yan Taibai's face turned pale to the extreme; this was a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.
Thereby allowing her to recover her damaged natal essence as quickly as possible, ensuring the Nascent Soul would not become weak or even dissipate.
"Senior, please feel free to strike; this junior will take it. Or is it that Senior is merely bluffing now and no longer has the ability to strike? If that is the case, this junior will take his leave."
The beautiful woman's voice, full of mockery, rang out, making Yan Taibai more certain of his guess; his complexion returned to normal, and he smiled.
Even now, her attitude and approach toward Yan Taibai remained that of a cat playing with a mouse.
"Bang!"
After all, the difference in their realms was too great; even if only a Nascent Soul remained, Yan Taibai could absolutely not be her opponent.
Seeing this scene, Yan Taibai had no choice but to stop, looking around with a face full of vigilance, yet there was no movement for a long time.
"Is it Senior Yun Cha of the Hehuan Sect?"
Yan Taibai looked around, searching for the traces of the beautiful woman's Nascent Soul.
The beautiful woman's voice was full of temptation and softness, as if it were a demonic sound bewitching the heart, making one unable to help but want to open their mouth and agree.
"Yin Yang Demon Sect?"
"Senior, could it be that you only have one Dharma Treasure left?"
"Do you think a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Great Perfection can escape?"
And with the infusion of "Geng Metal True Essence," the long sword emitted an incomparably sharp golden sword light, and then, Yan Taibai slashed out with one sword.
Almost in the blink of an eye, it submerged and swallowed him, completely causing his figure to sink into the endless demonic cloud.
Compared to searching aimlessly outside, taking some risks to head to a cultivation sect was undoubtedly a better choice.
There is no telling how many cultivation family disciples enter Huangfeng Valley to practice; most have Triple Attribute Spirit Roots, or even Dual Attribute Spirit Roots or variant Spirit Roots.
Each one was no less imposing than a Golden Core Stage cultivator.
"May I ask which Senior this is, and have I offended you in any way?"
However, he reacted immediately, his complexion recovering quite a bit, but he still stared at his surroundings with full vigilance.
"Bang"!
"Bang!"
If the opponent were in her prime, there would be no need for such "bluffing," not even showing her face, and she would have struck directly.
Yet Yan Taibai, a mere Foundation Establishment Late Stage Great Perfection, had actually destroyed them all; especially the sword Dao divine ability he displayed, which even she felt a bit of trepidation toward.
Yan Taibai was also helpless about this matter, because ordinary Top-tier Magical Tools could hardly withstand the power of the "Geng Metal True Essence."
But she did not care at all about a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator; she only wanted to subdue Yan Taibai to help her find a suitable body.
Suddenly, pieces of silk handkerchiefs painted with spring palace pictures appeared before his eyes, all of them scenes of dual cultivation that made one blush and heart race, vivid and lifelike; at a glance, one could even vaguely hear the sounds of exchange between men and women, especially the beautiful woman among them, who was extremely seductive, making one wish they could replace them.
The "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash" is not a sword Dao divine ability; it can be performed with either a saber or a sword, but compared to a saber, a sword-shaped Dharma Treasure is more suitable.
Unfortunately, for a model youth like Yan Taibai who had been taught by many teachers, it had absolutely no effect.
But for Yan Taibai, it had no effect; he simply poured the power of the "Geng Metal True Essence" within his dantian into the Top-tier Magical Tool in his hand.
"Yo, you are quite clever. But do you know, even if I am seriously injured, wanting to kill you is just a matter of waving my hand. The reason I trapped you is because of your Golden Body talent and good aptitude. As long as you are willing to hand over a portion of your primordial spirit for my use, I will spare you and teach you the supreme divine abilities of my sect. I guarantee you will be able to condense a Nascent Soul in the future and advance to the Nascent Soul Stage. How about it?"
Although not as good as her previous aptitude, she could not be picky at the moment.
It seemed that for the beautiful woman, this Nascent Soul cultivator did not have much fear.
And this Golden Light Protective Shield was formed by the "Geng Metal True Essence" in Yan Taibai's body, which was sturdier than any Top-tier Magical Tool or Talisman.
Therefore, Yan Taibai's eyes were tightly closed, but the incomparably seductive voice like "Young Master, come quickly" still rang in his ears, and various dual cultivation patterns that had just appeared before his eyes surfaced in his mind, while his surroundings were also filled with faint fragrance, as if he were surrounded by beauties.
"So that's how it is. It seems Senior's physical body was destroyed, leaving only the Nascent Soul. No wonder you dare not come out to see people and have to choose to possess a body."
Just as Yan Taibai was thinking rapidly about whether to "play along" and look for a way to escape.
"You have guts. It looks like Mr. Xuan Ye of the Ghost Spirit Sect taught you well. For the sake of Mr. Xuan Ye, I will give you one more chance. As long as you hand over a portion of your primordial spirit for my use, I can spare your life and teach you the supreme divine ability technique of my sect. Don't let your aptitude go to waste."
After all, if one were to rely solely on a Nascent Soul to head to the Tianluo Country, it would be too dangerous; if an accident occurred, hundreds of years of bitter cultivation would be lost in an instant.
Before long, a golden rainbow light flew over from the distant horizon; within the rosy light was a slender, upright, and extraordinary figure.
The beautiful woman's deep sigh rang out.
Once bewitched, one would inevitably be controlled by her, unable to act of one's own free will.
"Hehuan Sect?"
Therefore, the beautiful woman chose to possess a disciple in Huangfeng Valley of the Yue Country, or use a Demonic Path secret technique to temporarily control a disciple to reside in their body.
The beautiful woman's heart-stirring, seductive, and alluring voice slowly rang out.
"What powerful and overbearing True Essence magic power. It seems your fortune is not small; you have actually practiced an ancient technique. Otherwise, it would be impossible to cultivate such overbearing True Essence magic power."
As soon as the voice fell, a giggle that was full of endless charm and heart-stirring rang in Yan Taibai's ears.
The next moment, the demonic cloud around Yan Taibai churned, whistling toward him from all directions like a torrent.
"Many thanks for Senior's kindness, but this junior does not wish to have his life held in the hands of others. Therefore, Senior, please feel free to strike; even if this junior is soul-extracted and spirit-refined, it is because my strength is insufficient, and I am willing to accept it."
Thinking of this, the beautiful woman did not delay any longer and was about to change direction to head to Huangfeng Valley, but she stopped again.
In reality, fear was useless; one could only face it calmly, and whether one lived or died depended entirely on luck.
"Senior must be injured! Otherwise, you should have struck long ago to capture this junior or even extract my soul and refine my spirit."
Such pure and deep demonic clouds could certainly not be achieved by ordinary Demonic Path cultivators.
However, what Yan Taibai destroyed were only phantoms; the real Dharma Treasure, after the "spring palace pictures" shattered, turned into a silk handkerchief the size of a millstone and hovered above Yan Taibai's head.
An aged, thunder-like voice suddenly erupted.
"I never imagined that fellow Daoist would actually be here!"
