Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 887 Who is the Clown?
A fierce glint flashed in Ji An's eyes. "I'd rather they fight to the death and never retreat."

After the Five Banners Spiritual Treasure is upgraded, both its attack and defense will increase to varying degrees. However, at its current level, the improvement is very slow.

The enemy is very likely to view him with the same eyes he used to have, so he must seize the opportunity to strike the enemy hard.

Qin Yan's eyelids twitched suddenly. "Then let's watch our senior brother display his prowess. Senior brother, let's go to the living room to talk."

In the living room, Wuyue Zhenjun was discussing the transformation between wood and fire with Li Haoran. Seeing the two emerge from the weapon-refining room, he stood up, smiled, and cupped his hands in greeting, saying:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on acquiring another powerful weapon! The good days for those Buddhist cultivators are about to begin!"

The antlers on his head shimmered slightly, a sign of his joyful mood.

As a beast tamer bound by blood, he understood the king's power better than anyone else; that all-around strength would make enemies feel despair.

Li Haoran's eyes were bright, and a smile played on his lips:

“Senior brother, with you drawing the main enemy's attention, the rest of us can also attack the other Buddhist formations of the Buddhist cultivators.”

The cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage were restrained, and it would be a disgrace if they couldn't seize the opportunity to fight.

Ji An nodded, "This is also what I wanted to ask you to do."

He released the Taiyin Moon Corpse from the corpse-raising bag, and a lively, lifelike refined corpse appeared, its eyes sparkling.

Aside from being icy cold and radiating a chilling aura, a refined corpse is otherwise no different from a real person. When a refined corpse can cultivate a bit of yang energy from the yin energy within its body, it can break through to the level of a golden corpse of the sun.

At that time, the cold aura in its body completely disappeared, and it was no different from a normal cultivator, comparable to a cultivator at the Three Flowers Realm.

However, there is no record of the birth of the Golden Corpse of the Sun, perhaps because the laws do not allow it.

"This is the Taiyin Moon Corpse that I inherited from the Netherworld True Monarch of the Earthly Fiend Sect. Please get to know it."

Although the Buddhist cultivators' techniques are effective against corpse refinement, the Taiyin Moon Corpse still possesses the cultivation level of the fourth level of the Nascent Soul stage, which can play a significant role in attacking the Buddhist formation.

Li Haoran said in surprise, "I never expected that Senior Brother had such a trump card. I must have a chance to test my skills against it."

Corpse refiners are all thick-skinned and tough, so they can go all out and unleash their full potential when sparring.

The Moon Corpse of Taiyin proudly glanced at everyone, then turned to Ji An and said:

“Master, I have a name, Yue Ling’er. Please don’t call me ‘Taiyin Yue Shi’ anymore.”

Her intelligence was no different from that of a cultivator. She disliked the name "Taiyin Moon Corpse," believing that only dead beings were called corpses. She felt that although her body temperature was low, she was a living individual.

When she followed the Netherworld True Lord, she declared that her name was Yue Ling'er.

Ji Ankai said, "You never told me this name, otherwise I would have called you that long ago."

The Moon Corpse of the Moon is quite intelligent and has the ability to think, which is good.

Yue Ling'er looked at Li Haoran with arrogance, "I can feel the sword intent emanating from you, but it's still not enough to face me."

Having endured the baptism of moonlight for over a thousand years, she was very confident in the defensive capabilities of her body.

Li Haoran raised his eyebrows slightly, his gentle demeanor carrying a hint of firmness:

"Let's find a time and a place to let the facts speak for themselves."

"it is good."

A sense of urgency rose in the heart of the Five Sacred Mountains True Lord; he was no longer the most capable fighter under the Sovereign.

He coughed twice, making a sound to get attention:
"Let's discuss how to attack the Buddhist formation. First, let me explain my abilities: I can release spiritual light containing the power of the five elements, which can suppress the flow of magical power within a cultivator's body."

Yue Ling'er smiled faintly, "My body is the most powerful weapon, and it also has a strong defensive power comparable to a mid-grade fourth-tier defensive spirit treasure."

The aura emanating from the Buddhist monks had a restraining effect on me, but not a significant one.

I can use my body to shield everyone from enemy attacks, and I can also hunt down enemies at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm on my own.

After saying that, she gave Li Haoran a provocative look. She had learned about the existence of sword cultivators from her previous master and had always wanted to spar with the sword cultivator who was known as the strongest in offensive combat.

Li Haoran ignored the provocative gaze and said calmly:

"Sword cultivators excel at both offensive and flight techniques. They can serve as the main attackers or as a backup force to provide emergency support."

With a clear and discerning sword mind, one can keenly sense impending danger; having comprehended three levels of sword intent, one is currently comprehending the fourth.

He paused, then continued meaningfully:

"My attacks are like the endless waves of a river, constantly accumulating power, making it easy to deal with enemies at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm."

Qin Yan felt somewhat ashamed and said:

"I am skilled in weapon crafting and can help everyone deal with enemy attacks. My natal magic weapon is a weapon crafting furnace, which contains spiritual fire that can be released at once, with power equivalent to the full-force attack of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator."

The group discussed the pace of the attack, occasionally arguing, but eventually came up with a plan.

Ji An said:

"When I fight the enemy tomorrow, you should choose the Buddhist formation furthest from the battleground to attack."

I can't guarantee I can hold the enemy back, but I'll let out a long howl when I retreat. Remember that!

Ji An returned to Crimson Flame Peak and stepped into the cave.

Yue Ling'er stopped at the entrance of the cave and said, "Master, the moon will rise soon. I can use any moonlight I can. Can I stay outside tonight?"

Ji An turned around and said:

“When I am cultivating, the sealing formation of my cave will isolate the inside from the outside. If you stay outside, you will have to stay for a whole night.”

"Okay, I'll be back in the cave in the middle of the night."

Yue Ling'er replied that she really liked the scent of the Soul-Nourishing Wood and felt that being outside was much better than staying in the cave.

Ji An nodded, "Okay, I respect your choice."

There is no distinction between day and night in the gourd world, which is detrimental to the cultivation of the Moon Corpse, so he did not force the other party.

After Yue Ling'er left, Ji An activated the magic restriction by making hand seals, took out the gourd stone, and saw that his soul was connected to the silver spots. His body crossed time and space to come to the small world.

He activated the Five Banners to construct a defensive domain and felt that the defensive strength of the spiritual objects had increased by 20%, and the circulation speed of the five elements spiritual energy in the outer perimeter was about 30% faster than before.

The faster the spiritual energy circulates, the stronger the weakening effect on attacks.

Based on this calculation, the defensive strength of the Five Elements Domain exceeds that of two people.

He flew away on a cloud, found an open space, and unleashed his magical power to release the Chaos Five Elements Thunder.

Judging from the situation on the ground, Lei Fa's attack strength has increased by at least 20%.

Ji An nodded in satisfaction, his right fist clenched and placed in front of his chest, his gaze deep and unfathomable.
"I can't wait for tomorrow to come!"

He sat down cross-legged and began to circulate the Five Elements Wheel Sutra.

The five spiritual treasures formed a closed circle in the dantian, and the speed of the cultivation technique involuntarily increased.

The light of the Dao seed in the Five Elements Divine Palace changes from dark to bright, reaches its peak and then declines, repeating this cycle endlessly.

The spiritual energy in the small world was frantically converging here, but the speed at which the spiritual energy gathered was just enough to keep up with his consumption.

Two hours later, Ji An stopped cultivating, feeling increasingly pleased with himself, as his speed of refining spiritual energy had increased by 20% compared to usual.

He placed a top-grade spirit stone into the Void Stone. Only 30% of the spirit energy remained in the spirit stone, which could restore about 10% of his mana.

He prepared a few mid-grade fourth-level Bodhi fruits and had A-Yun brew a few pots of top-grade fourth-level Jade Dew Golden Bud Tea to store as beverages.

These preparations can quickly restore mana and spiritual energy, thereby improving combat endurance.

Ji An thought for a moment, then activated his Nascent Soul to refine three drops each of Sun Essence and Moon Essence, which also had the effect of restoring magical power and spiritual consciousness.

He knew very well that he only had one chance, and if he fully revealed his strength, the Buddhist cultivators would not stay here to fight to the death.

So he brought all his belongings, ready for a fierce battle tomorrow!
With everything prepared, Ji An summoned the Blazing Sun Furnace and the Frost Moon Furnace. These two magical treasures were of no use in the battle, and keeping them in his dantian would consume mana and spiritual energy to nourish them.

He did everything he could, striving for perfection.

The following day, Ji An hovered atop Crimson Flame Peak, absorbed the Morning Sun Purple Dew, and then flew to Sunset Cloud Mountain.

He released a golden light that seemed to leap across the ground and flew away, scouting the outer perimeter of the mountain-protecting formation.

He observed that several Nascent Soul stage cultivators were gathered together with some lower-level disciples, diligently constructing a Buddhist array.

Ji An slowly moved away, just like he had done a few days before. When he flew to the vicinity of the Buddhist formation furthest from the high-level Buddhist cultivators, he activated the fourth-grade mid-level spirit-stabilizing talisman. After the white spiritual light covered his entire body, he immediately activated the golden light of the earth with all his might.

At the same time, he made a hand seal to release the strength of metal and stone, and the five spiritual treasures of the Five Directions Flag formed a defensive field.

In just a moment, he arrived at a location two miles away from the Buddhist formation, where he fully activated his Nascent Soul Dharma Form.

As the tide rose, the area transformed into a vast ocean, and the bright moon, like a jade plate, rose behind him, its cool light overshadowing the morning sunlight.

His hand seals changed, his palms became afterimages, and the Five Elements Dao Seeds shone brightly. He went all out and released the Chaotic Five Elements Thunder.

As he cast his spell, the Five Elements Divine Mountain was also summoned, transforming into a massive mountain that flew above the Buddhist formation.

Ji An held nothing back; he knew he was racing against time and had to achieve victory before the high-level cultivators arrived.

In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared for miles.

During a lull in the spellcasting, the Five Elements Divine Mountain crashed down with a deafening roar.

Golden light emanated from the Buddhist array, enveloping Ji An, whose body, which had been suspended in mid-air, crashed down.

He understood that this must be some kind of anti-flight formation, a surprise prepared by the enemy to restrict his departure.

A ruthless smile crept across his lips; this time, he had no intention of escaping at all!

Ji An controlled his body and landed steadily on the ground, his attacks continuing unabated as he fell.

The chaotic five elements thunder and the five elements divine mountains fell in turn, once, twice.
When Jingyue appeared, the Buddhist formation had already collapsed. Of the six Reincarnation Realm cultivators left behind in the formation, five died and one escaped. Ji An was cleaning up the limbs that had been shattered by the lightning.

The Pure Moon Monk King's face instantly turned red, and nameless karmic fire rose up. He activated the Lion's Roar Technique and launched an attack with the Buddhist treasure.

The plan had failed halfway, and he had to do everything in his power to hold off the enemy.
