Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 615 Withstood All

The Earth Qilin controlled the golden flowers floating in the void to gather together. These delicate flowers, formed from the power of earth, looked fragile, but were actually extremely heavy.

It possesses both the strength of Wu Earth and the gentleness of Ji Earth, combining both.

The bone blade was slowed slightly by the surging golden flowers.

As it passed through the inner circle where the yellow sand swirled, the speed of the bone blade decreased significantly.

The bone blade lacks the five elements for attack, but it possesses both sharpness and sturdiness. Strength and speed are its only keys to victory.

When strength and speed are perfectly combined, killing enemies is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables. This is also what sword cultivators pursue. However, sword cultivators often have an extremely profound understanding of the metal element.

Ji An understood that the enemy's bone blades had additional attack attributes, which, it seemed, were to absorb the flesh and blood of their targets. The fact that the flesh and blood of the killed targets dried up quickly was proof of this.

He calmly activated the Xuanhuang Pagoda Talisman, its yellow light enveloping his body. This talisman was made from a mid-grade third-tier natal magic weapon.

He had considered whether he could withstand the enemy's attack without using the Solidifying Metal Technique. To be on the safe side, the True Demon's Bone Blade could be considered a top-grade third-tier magic weapon, while his Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner was only a mid-grade third-tier magic weapon, so the difference was quite significant.

The Mixed Gold Armor Spell is a defensive spell at the Chaoyuan stage, but it has reached the Great Perfection level. When activated by the power of the third level of the Golden Core and enhanced by a superior Dao Seed, it can achieve the defensive effect of a top-tier third-grade low-grade defensive magic treasure, and may even reach the third-grade mid-grade level.

The Panshan Technique is merely a defensive method at the Foundation Establishment level. With various enhancements, it is estimated that it can barely achieve the effect of a low-grade third-tier defensive magic weapon.

In addition, the identity jade token he obtained from his sect can passively activate a protective shield against attacks at the Golden Core level.

Finally, there was his physique, forged through the practice of the Immovable King Technique, which was comparable to a low-grade third-tier defensive magic weapon. With six layers of solid defense, he didn't believe that any enemy attack could penetrate it.

However, just to be on the safe side, Ji An changed the hand seals and released a golden light spell.

The Golden Light Technique is both offensive and defensive. When attacking, it unleashes a crescent-shaped spirit blade; when defending, it activates an oval-shaped shield inscribed with countless runes in front of the user.

At the same time, he slightly shifted his body to avoid vital points.

The bone blade pierced through the second layer of defense formed by the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, broke through the protective light of the Xuanhuang Pagoda, punctured the light shield of the Golden Light Technique, and shattered the Wu Earth Light of the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner.

However, at this moment it had reached its limit and could only barely shake off the brilliance of the Rock Mountain Technique.

"Ding"

The sound of metal clashing rang out as the bone blade struck Ji An's shoulder, only to be blocked by the radiance of the Mixed Gold Armor Spell.

At this moment, he still retains all three layers of defense.

Meanwhile, the true demon rode a black cloud and swooped down, its blue light flashing, appearing in its inevitable path.

This time it learned its lesson and avoided the very center of the Yi Wood Divine Thunder.

When the cyan light dissipated, he felt that much of his abundant blood and qi had been depleted out of thin air, and the armor formed by the demonic energy had not provided any defense whatsoever.

Yi Wood Divine Thunder belongs to the Yin element of thunder magic. Its function is to plunder the lifespan of enemies. Because its vital energy is abundant, it can only weaken the enemy's vital energy first.

Fortunately, it was a true demon that had reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm, while Ji An was only a cultivator at the third level of the Golden Core realm. If the two had been of equal cultivation, this attack could have reduced the true demon's health by 50% to 60%.

When facing Yin-attribute lightning magic, you must establish a 360-degree defense with no blind spots, otherwise you will inevitably be affected by the attack.

The successful defense gave Ji An great confidence. He believed that even if the enemy did not go all out in this attack, they had used nine-tenths of their strength.

This situation proves that he has the ability to protect himself against any enemy at the late Golden Core stage for a period of time. The downside is that it is too wasteful of talisman treasures. He needs to find some defensive spells at the Golden Core level to practice.

The true demon's attack was about to arrive. Ji An activated the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner again to establish a defensive system, reactivated the talisman treasure, and flew away on a cloud.

The enemy's attack is still too strong; his previous combination attack may not be effective.

Besides, even if you strike the enemy, it's all in vain if you can't kill them.

All he can do now is stall for time and wait for reinforcements.

The true demon did not approach further, maintaining a distance of fifty feet, as it still vividly remembered the damage caused by the target's soul attack.

It controlled the demonic weapon and launched another attack. In fact, it preferred to wield the demonic weapon and fight directly. The feeling of blood and flesh flying everywhere was what intoxicated it.

Master Yunyan activated his chain magic weapon, unleashing a raging inferno. The blazing white light swept away the demonic mist within a radius of several hundred feet, and many low-level demons who were unable to dodge were reduced to ashes.

Unfortunately, the Yin Pearl dropped by the demon also burned in the flames, emitting billowing black smoke and shattering into powder.

The temperature rose sharply, as if a volcano was brewing an eruption underground.

She approached Master Moyun and transmitted her voice:

"Target spotted! Master Xuanqing is in danger! Can you defend against the demon's attack even briefly?"

She was anxious at this moment; it was clear that the fishing plan had succeeded and the enemy had reappeared.

But the enemy isn't stupid either; they won't follow the script exactly.

The enemy has set a trap, and Xuanqing Zhenren must be under immense pressure. If he doesn't break the deadlock soon, the so-called "fishing" will only result in casualties on his side.

That would be like slapping her in the face, causing her to lose face in front of Zhenyue Zhenren. Now that the two of them have killed many demons, the danger level has been greatly reduced, and she needs to rush to the rear to provide support.

Master Moyun's cultivation was considerably weaker than that of the person in charge, making it extremely difficult for him to deal with the demon alone. However, he knew the situation was critical and gritted his teeth, saying:
“No problem, but if the demon attacks my disciples, there’s nothing I can do.”

"Do your best," Yunyan Zhenren's voice faded into the distance.

Ji An narrowly dodged an attack, leaving him with only one layer of defense remaining.

When the bone blade cut his skin, he could feel abnormal fluctuations in his blood and qi, which were involuntarily drawn to the spot where the demonic weapon had cut him.

Fortunately, he also cultivated his body and was equally skilled at manipulating his qi and blood; otherwise, this unusual movement alone would have affected his combat performance.

The True Demon's face was ruthless. He could sense the state of the enemy's body through the demonic soldiers. With a little more effort, he could cut the enemy down with his blade.

At this moment, True Man Yunyan flew over, and the Mountain Pearl shone brightly, its precious light falling on Ji An.

She also used her chain magic weapon to launch an attack, with flames soaring into the sky.

The true demon was burning with rage. It had spent a great deal of effort gathering demons, but the result was only the killing of some low-level cultivators, which made it extremely unwilling.

It never expected that a low-level cultivator could withstand seven or eight of its full-force attacks.

The enemy has already gathered, and it understands that it will be difficult to complete the plan unless it burns its life force to kill the enemy, in which case it will be in a long period of weakness.

He hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to leave in such a sorry state, when suddenly something strange happened in the sky behind him.

In Ji An's eyes, a large seal appeared in the sky, bursting forth with rich earth elemental spiritual light, enveloping the true demon. Zhen Yue Zhenren had arrived.

The seal rapidly grew larger, and like a small mountain, it crashed down from the sky. On the seal were two ancient seal characters, which were clearly the two characters "Fan Tian".

The true demon found himself immobilized by an immense force, as if a mountain were pressing down on him, and his movements became sluggish.

If that great seal were to strike you, you would lose half your life, and whether you could survive would be uncertain.

'Unable to defeat them by force.'

The True Demon had not expected that his enemy would have such a powerful hidden trump card. The spiritual pressure emanating from the sky made him feel the aura of death, as if he were facing the strongest True Demon in his clan.

There was no time to hesitate; it knew that if it was too slow to escape, it might be stuck there forever.

He immediately used the secret technique of burning his blood and qi, and his already large physique grew even larger. Black qi churned on the horns on his head, and blood-red light flashed in his eyes.

With its hands gripping the bone blade tightly, it used the power of that instant to break free from the earth elemental light's restraints and charged towards True Person Yunyan.

It hadn't considered the enemy behind it. Because it wasn't confident of a quick victory, once the power of the secret technique faded, it would become fish on the chopping block.

But before he left, he still had the ability to kill one or two enemies.

The pressure released by the true demon increased rapidly, and Master Yunyan seemed to have the illusion of facing a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

She understood that if she moved aside, the enemy could escape. After making this judgment, she immediately retrieved the Mountain Pearl and frantically channeled her magic power into it.

The pearl shone brightly, and mountains and rivers evolved from within it. The precious light surged, and it seemed as if a mountain was wrapped around her body.

The demon bared its teeth, its charging figure suddenly turning around and rushing towards Ji An, who was its true target.

Master Yunyan's face flushed red. She felt like she had been played for a fool. Now she could only hope that the other party had a secret technique to save her life, otherwise she would be doomed.

Zhenyue Zhenren exerted all his strength and activated the Fantian Seal once again. It would be a disgrace to him if the enemy killed his teammates in front of him.

At this moment, facing the overwhelming pressure, Ji An felt the world darken even more, and his body trembled reflexively. The savage and violent aura that rushed towards him was like a mountain pressing down on him, and even the circulation of magic power within his body was somewhat disrupted.

The true demon had a ferocious appearance. After burning its blood energy, its attack power increased significantly, and it could kill a low-level cultivator in an instant.

Moreover, its flight speed is greatly increased after burning its blood energy, and it cannot be caught unless the enemy releases a similar secret technique.

Ji An made a hand seal, releasing the power to turn the ground into steel.

He watched as the blurred True Demon charged forward, raised his middle finger, and then golden light engulfed his figure.

The true demon crashed down, its bone blade glowing red, striking heavily against the almost tangible outer shell created by the Solidifying Metal Technique.

Then, its body was shaken back by the enormous recoil force.

The outer shell formed by the solidification technique was riddled with tiny cracks, but it ultimately withstood everything.

Zhenyue Zhenren seized that rare opportunity, and as his palm pressed down, the Heaven-Turning Seal crashed down.

The earth shook violently, and the ground sank several feet, as if a heavy bomb had fallen. The powerful shockwave shattered the armor formed by the Solid Metal Technique.

Ji An dispelled the spell's effects and landed on the ground in an extremely inelegant manner.

Silence reigned beneath the seal; the dust had finally settled.
