Wet viviparity

Chapter 766 Reversal, Divine Intervention

"He actually dared to come here."

The infant lying in the fog saw the black owl reveal its true form and rush towards it on the wind, and became suspicious.

He had mastered demonic magic and supernatural powers. While he might not be considered a rampant monster, he was still a well-known old monster whom ordinary demons dared not offend.

Even if Black Owl, this newcomer, is unaware of her background, Fire Crow Child must have given her a warning earlier. Now that they are dueling, how could this fellow dare to confront her directly? He should try to harass her indirectly or fight her from a distance.

Seeing the black owl with its striped tiger body, long neck, and serrated teeth, thrusting straight at him, the infant looked back at the place under the mist where he was casting a spell to break through the barrier. That place was the evil acupoint altar that the couple had painstakingly built.

"Reversing the Five Elements to Forge Truth!"

The infant uttered a chant, and its pale green body rippled with water, shimmering and sparkling. It transformed into a water palm, which slammed forward and struck the tiger's body. With a loud "Moo," the sound exploded all around, like bursting beads.

"You can boast about dying under my 'Capture Palm' refined from the Black Poison True Water' when you go to the underworld."

"Very poisonous!"

Inside the water palm, the black owl, whose body was smashed to pieces, let out a cry, followed by the cracking of its bones.

The next moment, a muffled groan came from under his nose. Zhao Chi, who was hiding nearby, felt a jolt in his heart, thinking it was a coded signal. But it was just a groan, and he was almost unable to start chanting.

Two streams of energy surged within the water palm, creating a series of bubbles that sizzled and popped, as if boiling the water palm. Meanwhile, the Black Owl Tiger had already reassembled its shattered bones, relying on its remaining physical endowment as a Beast of the Heavenly Creation to barely survive in this Black Poison True Water.

"Watch me refine you."

The water palm was about to be broken by the two energies. The infant's mysterious method changed, and sparks rolled in the water palm. In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the water palm had transformed into a furnace, simmering the black owl in it, cooking it slowly over a low flame.

"Keep burning, keep burning, make it burn brighter."

From inside the fireplace, Black Owl's loud, energetic voice echoed.

The spirit of Xueying Lingmu attached to the infant thought in a panic: "This creature that is neither human nor demon, could it really have skin of copper and bones of iron? But even copper and iron would be melted by my true fire, so why does it become more and more energetic as it is burned?"

Inside the furnace, Black Owl was also secretly alarmed.

He was confident that his demonic body possessed the qualities of a celestial beast, the extraordinary nature of which he had never revealed to anyone. Even Xiao Qing Gu could not see through the potential of this demonic body. Today, after being tempered by this true water and fire, he was able to withstand it at first, but now, even fanning the fire in the furnace, he could only barely hold on.

Even so, he did not show the slightest sign of weakness. He knew that the true body could send down his primordial spirit thoughts at any time to temporarily alleviate the calamity of the true fire tempering his body and provide a safety net for his battle.

"This infant is truly a treasure of the Five Elements!"

Ji Ming, who was far away in Yanxu Mountain and paying close attention to the situation of his second primordial spirit, murmured to himself.

The so-called reversal of the five elements to refine the true essence is already a lesson in the five realms of the fetal spirit: "moving the five elements, using the positive and negative generation and restraint as the work." If one follows the five elements, the weather will be favorable, while if one reverses the five elements, one can refine the true essence of the five elements such as true water, true fire, true thunder, and true qi.

With a crackling sound, the black owl, which had been burned to a crisp in the furnace, emitted the popping sound of dry firewood.

"bluff."

Upon learning that Black Owl had been burned, Snow Spirit was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, the furnace trembled and quickly transformed into an infant, carrying the fire upwards.

It turned out that her demonic body, hidden beneath her spiritual abode, had been discovered by Xiao Qinggu. Under the onslaught of the Vajra Guangfa God and Demon and Xiao Qinggu's magic fork, she was defeated after only two or three exchanges and had to send the infant to provide support.

"Hmph! Hmph!" The charcoal-like black owl snorted twice, and Zhao Chi understood, immediately starting to sing.

Above and below the infant, a chanting sound resonated: "Nagaraja, Sagara."

The infant who had just ascended was attacked from both sides by the chanting. The primordial spirit attached to Xue Yinglingmu was already unstable and could not control the infant. For a moment, the infant was like a headless fly, running around in the air.

At this moment, the two energies of Avici were like ropes binding the infant tightly, pulling him deep into the nostrils of the black owl, where they were sealed by the yang and annihilation energies.

Before Black Owl could catch his breath, a sharp cry rang out, followed by Snow Spirit Demoness, who appeared as swiftly as an arrow, arriving in the blink of an eye from the thousand-foot gap at the mouth of the gorge. Her eyes flashed with intense light as she unleashed her supernatural powers, shouting wildly, "Give me back my Dao Fruit!"

"not good."

When Zhao Chi, who was halfway across the gorge, tried to dodge by flipping his true form as a black snake, he had only moved half a mile when a claw came down on his back. Several claws dug into his flesh and blood, grabbed a section of his spine, crushed it, and threw it aside.

With a flap of its wings, Xue Yinglingmu arrived in front of Hei Xiao.

Knowing that he had fallen under his own demonic spell, the Mirror of Mind's Impairment, and that his consciousness and five senses were all obscured, he could not speak, see, move, smell, hear, or live, and was no different from a living dead.

"Ha~"

Snow Spirit Bird Beak exhaled a long breath, "There's still time."

As soon as he finished speaking, a large cloud of golden dust fell from the sky above the gorge, with a flaming trident embedded in it.

When Xiao Qinggu, the spirit attached to Baocha, saw Xue Yinglingmu grab her lover and look like she was about to kill him, she was so enraged that her inner fire ignited. Her primordial spirit felt as if it were being hammered. In her anger and grief, she showed signs of going berserk. The demons she controlled also began to stir, showing an air of turning against their master.

"Haha."

Xue Yinglingmu felt extremely pleased, thinking that her revenge was very timely and that there was no greater joy in life.

She mocked the little green maiden who was breathing fire from her mouth and nose, saying, "Your lover is all bark and no bite. I really thought he had the makings of a cult leader. Now he's not far from death. You can go to the underworld and look for him carefully later."

With a crisp snap, half of Xueyinglingmu's bird head was bitten off by the tiger's mouth.

She turned her remaining, bloody half-head towards the black owl. The black owl, who had clearly been affected by her supernatural powers, was just like a normal person, with a pair of mocking eyes, holding half of her head in its mouth.

"You are not him, who are you?"

Before Xueyinglingmu could finish speaking, she was eager to flap her wings and fly away, but found that she could not move her body at all.

"Black Owl" stretched its neck and swallowed the frozen Snow Spirit Mu in one gulp. At the same time, it took a deep breath, and the two breaths of Avici circulated in its abdomen, taking away the demon soul and refining it.

Just now, in that instant, Ji Ming actually sent his primordial spirit down from a distance to control this physical body, which is how he killed the careless Xue Yinglingmu in one fell swoop.

Now that Xue Yinglingmu has discovered his secret, he can no longer keep her, not even for a moment, even if her soul contains the information about the ancient kingdom that he wants to know.

Xue Yinglingmu's body and soul were destroyed, and the supernatural powers she used were like water without a source, causing the second primordial spirit within her physical body to gradually become active.

When Xiao Qinggu saw Hei Xiao reverse the situation and wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop, her spirit, which was strongly stimulated, was able to stabilize again. She suppressed her inner fire, subdued the demons, and carefully carried the charred Hei Xiao back to her spiritual mansion. The two of them then immersed themselves in the Chaotic Pool.

After a long while, a thick black snake, almost broken in two, on the riverbank awoke from its unconsciousness in pain, flicking its red tongue and calling out softly, "Junior brother, are you still there?"

After a while, seeing no response, he shouted again, "No, old lady, could you please do me a favor? My teacher is Zen Master Caihu of Moyun Peak, who is actually your senior!"
