Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 777 All Four Lines in Place, Clouds and War Fierce

Fang Yi stroked the Void Realm Withered and Flourishing Banner, feeling its warm touch, his eyes filled with fascination.

"First, establish the Five Elements to solidify the foundation, then perform the cycle of flourishing and decay to elevate the precious banner."

If I can occupy the Rongyi line with the Xuantian spiritual root, my natal magic treasure will nourish me, and the Jia wood and Yi wood will generate each other, greatly benefiting me to perfect my foundation and broaden my path.

Furthermore, once the task is accomplished, the Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner, this top-tier treasure, might even advance several more levels.

He took a step forward, his body shrank, and his face was filled with dark blue corpse energy, transforming him into a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, standing on a sixth-grade corpse lotus that looked like black jade.

"Wow!"

The Void Realm's Withering and Flourishing Banner swayed gently, like a whale sucking in water, swallowing up all the dark clouds and mist from all directions.

"Buzz!"

A streak of dark light rose up and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Baiyangze, shimmering with light.

In the northwest corner, there is a desolate island of black sand, where all vegetation has withered, and scorching heat and red light emanate from it.

The three-foot-long heartwood of the firewood is brownish-red, and its entire body is covered with natural fire channels. Although it is not activated, it is as hot as a furnace, baking all directions.

"What a treasure!"

What a wonderful treasure!

Yanli held a mulberry wood staff, and the turbid ripples swirled around him, separating him from the oncoming heat wave.

"Senior Sister Miaoyun, you would give such a great treasure to a Yin Bone?"

Xuanzhi's eyes also showed reluctance, and she whispered:

"Senior sister, a third-grade high-quality spiritual object, even if it is not water-based, is enough to be refined into a fire-based magic weapon of considerable quality."

"Giving this to the White Bone Sect demon is too high a price to pay."

Miao Yun looked at the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart, her heart aching with pain.

Third-grade high-quality spiritual items are extremely rare; only a sect like the Azure Water Pavilion, with a Grand Master presiding over it, could possess the resources to preserve such items.
With his early-stage Core Formation cultivation, he was not yet qualified to use the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart.

However, since she had condensed her golden core and had a bright future ahead of her, Yu Yuanzi finally relented and offered his support.

Only one available.

It will be impossible to summon spiritual objects of this caliber again.
Thinking of Yun Huizi in Qingkong Cliff, her sinister words still echoed in my ears.

To seize control of the sect's lineage, we cannot allow Yin Gu to assist Yun Huizi in conquering Qingkong Cliff.

Otherwise, with the help of the treasure, her disguised golden elixir would have crumbled with each step she took.

"give him!"

Miao Yun suppressed her reluctance and remained calm.

"As long as we can conquer Yunhe Island and advance further, we will eventually earn back the spiritual resources we lost."

She bowed deeply and said earnestly:

“Junior Sister Xuanzhi, Junior Brother Yufengzi, we have been friends for over a hundred years, and I will not hide it from you.”

The battle at Yunhe Island involved my evaluation in the eyes of Master Yuyuan and the inheritance of the sect's lineage.

I hope you can lend me a hand!

Xuanzhi and Yufengzi exchanged a glance and both nodded in agreement.

Bai Yangze and Miaoyun are good friends, while Qingkongya and Yun Huizi support each other.

Now that Yu Hongzi is dead, Master Yunhui's foundation has been greatly damaged. Conquering Yunhe Island is also a rare and great opportunity.

“Since things have come to this, let’s just let Yin Gu have his way,” Xuan Zhi said with a slight sigh, her eyes slightly closed. “However, the Fire Wutong Wood Heart should not be easily handed over to Yin Gu.”

To break through cultivation levels using this treasure, the Yin Bone must pay a sufficient price. Simply assisting in breaking through the clouds and reaching the island is not enough!

Yu Fengzi toyed with the black water bead in his hand and agreed:

“We seek the Yin Bone, and the Yin Bone also seeks us.”

Unfortunately, that old monster seized the opportunity too precisely; if it had been a moment earlier or later, the situation would not have turned out this way.

"He got a top-grade third-tier spiritual item for paying a price; he really gained a huge advantage."

Miao Yun nodded and said softly:

“Junior Brother Yu Fengzi is right. We must exchange enough benefits from Yin Gu.”

That old monster is eager to break through, and it wouldn't be difficult for him to gain some benefits in return.

The sky was dark, and a crescent moon rose, casting its light in scattered spots.

A hazy streak of light flashed by, and a hoarse voice echoed across the island.

"Fellow Daoist Miaoyun, Yin Gu has come to pay a visit."

"Come here."

On the stone platform in the island, Miaoyun cast a magic seal with her delicate hand, and the cloud-like magic restriction cracked open, revealing a gap about ten feet wide.

"Brother Yin Gu, please!"

As the gray, corpse-like aura descended, Fang Yi, dressed in a scarlet robe and holding a jet-black Nether Banner, exuded a sinister aura that shielded him from the oppressive heat.

"Firewood Heartwood?!"

Gazing at the three-foot-tall spirit tree suspended in the air, emitting crimson light and exuding a fiery aura, he felt a surge of joy.

"What a treasure!"

"It's definitely a wonderful treasure!"

Miao Yun nodded slightly in acknowledgment. Xuan Zhi understood, stepped forward, her butterfly-yellow robes fluttering, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Senior Sister Miaoyun paid a considerable price for this Firewood Heart."

Are you satisfied, Brother Yin Gu?

Suppressing the surging desire and sense of being devoured emanating from the Void Realm's Withering and Flourishing Banner, Fang Yi glanced at the magical restrictions protecting the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart and earnestly said:

"Thank you for your trouble, Fellow Daoist Miaoyun. Rest assured, I will wait until my cultivation breaks through."

"We will certainly do everything in our power to help you defeat Yan Youtai and reclaim Yunhe Island."

Miao Yun smiled without saying a word, and Yu Fengzi also stepped forward to stand next to Xuan Zhi.

"Firewood Heart is rare, and Senior Sister Miaoyun paid a huge price. Brother Yingu should compensate her accordingly."

"Oh?

Paying an extra price?

Fang Yi's eyes were slightly closed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, looking at Master Miaoyun with a half-smile.

"Does fellow Daoist also think so?"

"Simply attacking Yunhe Island is not enough!"

She drew upon the advance payment of all available spiritual resources within the next hundred years. Miao Yun's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, exuding an imposing aura without anger.

"If you can help me conquer Yunhe Island, I will repay you with Huowumu Xin."

But what if we fail?

"Fellow Daoist Miaoyun is right. I wonder what price I will have to pay?"

Fang Yi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and the black jade lotus platform beneath his boots opened and closed, releasing a wave of scorching corpse energy.

"Buzz!"

A sliver of silver light rose from Miaoyun's sleeve, colliding incessantly with the scorching corpse energy.

She tossed her black hair aside, raised her index finger, and her robes fluttered wildly, a chilling aura swirling around her.

"A mid-grade magic weapon, or 30,000 low-grade spirit stones."

"Fellow Daoist Miaoyun, your price is fair. A third-grade high-quality spiritual item is priceless and hard to find."

If I could exchange it for spirit stones, I would be the one who benefits.

Fang Yi activated the Plum Blossom Divination Technique, and a six-pointed plum blossom in his eyes flashed and disappeared.

"Buzz!"

A ghostly black shadow swept past, appearing beside the forbidden area with lightning speed.

He reached out and grabbed at the heartwood of the fire sycamore tree.

"Oh!"

The banner of decay and prosperity in the Void Realm fluttered, and eerie ghost claws reached out, tearing apart the magical restrictions.

A soft laugh rang out among Miaoyun, Xuanzhi, Yufengzi, and the others.

"However, I prefer to take what I want myself; going back on my word is not the behavior of a righteous person."

"What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"

Miao Yun's face darkened. This Yin Bone was too arrogant. She slashed down with the crescent-shaped blade from her sleeve.

"Do you really think I was unprepared?"

"Wow!"

Beneath the restrictions of the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart Sutra, a precious flag appeared, shimmering with a tidal wave of spiritual light.

The Canglang Banner moves without wind, and four protective runes flow around it.

"A mid-grade magic weapon?"

Fang Yi's black Nether Banner swayed in his hand, and his fierce ghostly claws tore three eerie claw marks as he reached for the Xuan Yue Blade behind him.

"clang!"

The sound of metal clashing against metal was piercing; the silver moonlight clashed with the gruesome claw marks; the swirling silver light violently collided with the ghostly aura.

"Caught!"

Miao Yun multitasked, simultaneously activating two mid-grade magic weapons: the Xuan Yue Blade and the Cang Lang Banner.

The former restrains the Soul Banner, while the latter protects the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart.

“If Brother Yin Gu does not have 30,000 spirit stones, you can use your essence blood or magic treasures as collateral, and repay the debt after your cultivation breaks through.”

"is it?"

Fang Yi's eyes flashed with a sharp light. The scarlet energy flowed within the Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner, and the Blood Spring Coffin swallowed and exhaled corpse energy, instantly suppressing it downwards.

"Oh no, that Netherworld Coffin magic artifact is no low-grade."

Miao Yun's expression changed slightly as she activated the Star Refining Talisman in her dantian, causing starlight to flow.

But it was not the Golden Elixir after all, and it was half a breath too late.

"Oh!"

The flag of Canglang flutters, stirring up a giant blue wave.

"late!"

Fang Yi's blood energy transformed into armor, and his five fingers probed into the magical barrier, grasping the core of the Fire Phoenix Wood in his palm.

The Canglang Banner was suppressed by Chiyin with the Blood Spring Coffin, while the Xuan Yue Blade and the Xujie Kurong Banner were constantly entangled.

In the blink of an eye, Xuanzhi and Yufengzi unleashed their magical treasures.

"Tear!"

The forbidden laws were torn apart by Fang Yikong, and the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart was put away.

He then chuckled as he looked at Miaoyun's unpleasant expression.

"Fellow Daoist, do you intend to fight me to the death?"

"Brother Yin Gu, you have quite the scheme!"

Miao Yun's expression darkened slightly as she gazed at the Blood Spring Coffin and the withered and flourishing banners of the Ruins Realm, their reflections shimmering in the light.

The eerie howls of ghosts and the flowing blood-red light made Fang Yi appear like a great demon.

Do not!
He is a top-tier demon who cultivates the path of corpses!
"The Ghost Path Ten Thousand Souls Banner and the Corpse Path Netherworld Coffin are two magical treasures that resonate with your energy, brother, as if they were one."

Even without breaking through, you can still fight Yan Youtai with your Yin Bone.

Miao Yun suppressed her anger, realizing she had been outmaneuvered once again.

This old monster was hiding his true strength. When he fought Yan Youtai, he was only at the second level of the Core Formation stage, barely holding on with the help of the Myriad Soul Banner.

He then revealed himself to be at the third level of Core Formation, about to break through to the mid-stage of Core Formation, in exchange for a spiritual object to advance his cultivation.

Unexpectedly, this was not the limit; there were still hidden tricks up their sleeves.
A mid-grade Corpse Dao magic weapon with interconnected energy channels greatly enhances combat abilities, possessing the subtle charm of the Mysterious Moon Blade—this is all too clear.

Later, when they still needed to ask for favors, they couldn't afford to break ties. Yun Hui, who was facing off against them at Qingkong Cliff, was always another option for Yin Gu.

"I admit defeat this time, but if you hold back again in the battle of Yunhe Island, Yin Gu..."

"Don't blame me for inviting the Grand Master Yuyuan to seek fellow Daoists for discussion!"

"Fellow Daoist Miaoyun, rest assured, our White Bone Sect also does not wish for Xuan Yang Mountain to become too powerful."

With a slight thought, Fang Yi gathered two beams of light, one dark and one crimson, into his sleeve. Having received the benefits, he would no longer provoke Miao Yun, Xuan Zhi, and the others.

"After a period of seclusion on the island, and once his cultivation broke through, he immediately made his move against Yunhe Island."

"That would be best." Miao Yun gave Fang Yi a deep look and then waved to summon an old woman.

"Junior Sister Yanli, please take Brother Yingu to choose a cave dwelling."

Half an hour later.

On the northern corner of the deserted island, atop a cliff hundreds of feet high, Yanli held a mulberry wood staff and spoke humbly.

"Master Yin Gu, is this place to your liking?"

Fang Yi looked at the unobstructed view and the deserted wasteland around him, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Yes, this is the place."

I am currently in seclusion here. You may not disturb me unless necessary, and you may not disturb me even if necessary.
Otherwise, you will trigger the forbidden spells and die. Don't blame me for not warning you.

"Yes, I obey the decree of the True Man."

Yan Li bowed respectfully, his expression humbled, for the old monster before him was no less formidable than Master Miao Yun.

Once their cultivation breaks through, they will be even more superior, and in the ensuing life-or-death battle, they must not be offended.
A quarter of an hour later.

Fang Yi's scarlet robe fluttered as he scanned the surroundings with his divine sense, confirming that no one was around.

"disease!"

"Wow!"

The banners of decay and prosperity in the Void Realm fluttered, the Six Paths Treasure Restriction rotated, and a hazy, yin energy surged forth.

With each breath, a chilling aura filled the air, obscuring the sky and the sun, completely shrouding the high cliff.

"Edict!"

After setting up several restrictions, Fang Yi took out the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart.

"Oh!"

Freed from the constraints of the law, the fire energy gathered beside the heartwood of the fire wutong tree, spontaneously igniting the yin energy.

"Good baby, there seems to be a sliver of life left."

Fang Yi pondered for a moment, then activated the [Scripture of Life, Death, Withering and Flourishing] at full power, his magical power flowing like a never-ending river.

"Wow!"

The lush vitality converged and blended seamlessly with the power of decay and growth, evolving into a phantom image of a large, gnarled Chinese toon tree.

"Xiao Yimu Divine Light, fall!"

The lush green vitality poured into the heart of the fire wutong tree, nourishing and watering that delicate thread of life.

"." As time passed, a wisp of life continued to grow stronger, and the decaying energy of the Void Realm also continuously permeated the heart of the Fire Phoenix Wood.

half year later.

On Black Sand Island, the scorching sunlight shines down, and a jade platform floats in the air.

Miao Yun, dressed in a green-patterned robe with wide sleeves, narrowed her phoenix eyes as she gazed at the towering cliffs of Beidao Island, where the yin energy obscured the sky and the sun, making it seem as if it had transformed into a ghostly realm.

"I wonder if Yin Bone can successfully break through to the next realm."
Breaking through from the early to the middle stage of Core Formation involves another transformation of the divine sense, magical power, and essence, often requiring three to five attempts to succeed.

"I hope for an early success. Master Yu Yuan is locked in a standoff with Tian Quezi, and the other True Immortals are too busy to deal with him."
Once Yan Youtai breaks through the Heavenly Secrets Dao and replenishes his cultivation, his power will be truly immense and difficult to subdue.

"kindness?"

Looking at the swirling yin energy in the north, a blazing spiritual light shot into the sky, stirring up changes in the winds and clouds in all directions.

Miao Yun's expression changed slightly. She suddenly stood up and transformed into a streak of light, heading towards the north corner.

"To break through to the mid-stage of Core Formation so quickly, and with such a profound Yin Bone foundation?"

"Wow!"

Within the Ghost Realm, the Void Realm's Withering and Flourishing Banner stands tall, with tens of thousands of spirit stones floating beside it like countless stars, providing spiritual power.

Fang Yi held a lush green spiritual light that enveloped the Fire Phoenix Wood Heart in his hand, and a lotus shadow flashed beneath his feet as he stepped into the Withered and Flourishing Small Cave Heaven.

"The final step."

Inside the small grotto, Fang Yi looked around.

The East is teeming with life.

The earth's energy is derived from the Wuyuan soil, the bitter plum blossoms sway in the cold, and each third-tier precious herb is surrounded by stars, paying homage to the Xuan Tian Ling Vine.

In the south, a gray and resentful aura lingers.

In the spirit land of accumulated corpses, coffins of corpses lie hidden deep within, exhaling yin energy and emanating a fierce aura.

In the West, the air is thick with moisture, creating a dreamlike and enchanting landscape. The tranquil pools of the Soul-Nourishing Pool give rise to underground rivers.

"go with!"

Fang Yi's palm was filled with spiritual light, and the Fire Wutong Wood Heart transformed into a crimson aura, which was then completely devoured.

"boom!"

Beneath the underground river, a thin vein of fire evolved and spread continuously, with runes visibly evolving rapidly.

The seventh treasure restriction is outlined, and the formless Dao domain evolves.

"The initial form of a dojo?"

Fang Yi's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he watched the seventh treasure restriction being rapidly drawn, its azure and yellow Daoist charm flowing and condensing into a nascent phantom of the Withering and Flourishing Daoist Field.

"Is this about to break through to a high-grade magic weapon?"

The illusory image of the Daoist temple, filled with the Daoist rhythm of decay and prosperity, continuously solidified, with four colors of spiritual light—blue, red, yellow, and black—rotating.

"Buzz!"

Under the nurturing influence of the grotto, the spirit land of accumulated corpses slowly rose, the Soul Nourishing Pool became increasingly deep, and a water vein gradually condensed in the underground flowing Yin River.

"Oh!"

The withered and flourishing Daoist temple collapsed, turning into scattered starlight, and the evolving treasure restriction also turned into runes and dissipated.

"Unfortunately, the element of metal is missing, preventing the complete cycle of the five elements from being fully realized."

Fang Yi's eyes showed regret. The Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner had reached the upper grade, which was enough for him to fight against a True Person of the Sect Master level.

"However, it's not without its benefits. Although it hasn't broken through to become a high-grade magic weapon, the Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner is empowered by the power of the Small Grotto Heaven."
In terms of power, it is no weaker than the Nether Spring Pearl in Yun Huizi's hand.

A flash of blue light disappeared, and he vanished into the cave.

Outside the high cliff.

Miao Yun looked at the layers of black mist with a look of apprehension.

"Since Fellow Daoist Miaoyun is here, why not come in and have a chat?"

The black mist churned and receded to both sides like a tide, revealing a narrow path about seven feet wide.

At the end of the path, Fang Yi, clad in a scarlet robe and holding a Netherworld Banner, exuded a fiery aura.

"Fourth level of Core Formation?"

Miao Yun's pupils contracted slightly. She had broken through to the next realm in just one attempt. This old monster Yin Gu was indeed hiding his true strength.

Immediately, she felt a surge of joy, having thought that breaking through to the Yin Bone Realm would take at least one or two years.

Now that he has broken through the barrier in half a year, Yan Youtai's mastery of the Heavenly Secrets has improved rapidly, and there is absolutely no possibility that he will enter the third-level high-grade stage.

"Brother Yin Gu, when will you make your move?" Miao Yun suppressed her anxiety and asked calmly.

"Don't miss this opportunity, act now."

Fang Yi smiled, his Nether Banner swallowing the Yin energy from all directions, while the corpse energy beneath his boots gathered and transformed into a fifth-grade black lotus.

"it is good!"

Miao Yun, draped in a wide sleeve adorned with emerald patterns, unleashed a surge of azure light that rose into the sky, raising a jade altar.

"Disciples of the Azure Water Pavilion, heed my command! Attack Yunhe Island one day from now and reclaim the sacred land!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

One after another, streaks of light shot into the sky, and Xuanzhi, Yufengzi, Yanli, and many other pseudo-Dan cultivators landed on the jade platform.

Sensing Fang Yi's intense aura, Xuan Zhi was astonished and murmured to herself.

So fast?

Moreover, with a stable foundation and abundant magical power, he did not forcefully break through the barrier.
"This Yin bone structure is incredibly strong; I underestimated the heroes of the world."

The next day.

Within Yunhe Island, streaks of light rose and fell intermittently, as cultivators came and went.

Not only the disciples of Xuanyang Mountain, but also many independent cultivators gathered here after Yan Youtai's great victory over Biyue Pavilion.

Polished bluestone paves both sides of the avenue, and pavilions and towers rise from the ground.

The Refining Pavilion was bustling with people; the Hundred Herbs Pavilion was filled with the fragrance of herbs; and the Red Sleeve Pavilion was filled with seductive music, with the alluring figures of the cultivators arousing the desires of those passing by.

Huang Huaiyu, wearing a crown of mountains and rivers, with a round body and a protruding belly, strolled along the avenue, receiving constant compliments.

"Greetings, Master Huang!"

"Master Huang's aura is strong and his cultivation has advanced further. He truly deserves to be the restorer of the Huang family of Qingshuijian."

"."

"Tsk, what a stroke of luck! My Huang family of Qingshuijian has finally achieved this day."

Huang Huaiyu smiled broadly as he looked at the passing cultivators from his clan and the shops that his clan had bought at great expense.

"Only 30% of the original number of cultivators from the Jade Family in Five Color Valley remain. The entire family's resources have been invested in Azure Sky Cliff, and they haven't even taken over a single shop."

That idiot Yu Feihong doesn't know when to cut his losses.

How could Fang Yi of Qingkong Cliff compare to Master Yan at the height of his power?

"kindness?"

Upon seeing the familiar figure, he quickened his pace, and within moments, he was walking alongside Yu Feihong.

"Fellow Daoist Fei Hong, it's been a long time. Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"But it's too late to figure it out. The caves and spiritual sites on Yunhe Island have already been taken."

"If you are willing to share some of the profits from the Five-Colored Valley mine, I might put in a good word for you."

"Don't think about it!"

Yu Feihong closed his eyes slightly, a cold smile playing on his lips. The outcome of the battle was yet to be seen.

Changsun Jie could openly infiltrate Yunhe Island, and Fang Yi Zhenren of Qingkong Cliff might not necessarily be defeated by Yan Youtai.

Even in the worst-case scenario, one can still protect oneself.

With a Core Formation cultivator looking after them, the Yu family has remained dormant for a century, keeping a low profile, and their lineage has been passed down without hindrance.

Huang Huaiyu's expression turned slightly stern. If he hadn't coveted the Yu family's spirit iron mine, why would he have gone to such lengths to sabotage the Yu family's purchase of the spirit fields and shops on Yunhe Island?

"If Fellow Daoist Fei Hong is so tactless, I won't be so easy to talk to after Qingkong Cliff is destroyed."

"Heh," Yu Feihong sneered, then turned and left.

"boom!"

A cold moon rises, its silvery light swirling, descending upon the clouds and islands.

"Yan Youtai, get out here for me!" A loud, angry voice boomed across the island like muffled thunder.

Yu Feihong and Huang Huaiyu's expressions both changed.

"Miaoyun of Biyue Pavilion, does she still dare to come?"

"Something has happened!"

Unable to bear their grudges, the two transformed into streaks of light and headed towards their family's cave.

"Melodious?"

The invisible sound waves spread out, easily calming the muffled, thunderous roar.

Golden words and legal texts circulate, Heavenly Laws rise from the Bright Sky Tower, and clash against the moon.

"Oh!"

The hurricane howled, and the aftershocks of the explosive battle swept across hundreds of miles. On Yunhe Island, twenty-four array flags rose, evolving into a third-order grand array.

Beside the wondrous spring, water vapor rises and spiritual energy swirls, while Taoist inscriptions flow across a celestial globe.

"It's finally here."

Yan Youtai wore a square, clean crown and a black and white robe, with the Heavenly Secrets Eight Trigrams plate slowly rotating behind him.

"Completely defeat Miaoyun, and that Yin Bone as well."

His fingertips moved in a series of hand seals, and his eyes shone brightly, penetrating layers of magical restrictions and landing on the jade platform, on the wondrous charm and the Yin bone.

"If I severely injure these two, my path to enlightenment will be smooth, and the loss of my lifespan may be compensated for."
A golden opportunity has presented itself; it should not be missed.

"Wow!"

He took a step forward, and silver light flowed around him. When he reappeared, he was on Yunhe Island, facing Yutai from afar.

"Just one step away from a complete breakthrough in the Path of Heavenly Secrets."

Fang Yi's eyes were slightly closed, his mind on guard. Regardless of whether he relied on external forces, he had cultivated the Dao of Heavenly Secrets to the point where he was only a hair's breadth away from the third-tier superior level.

Yan Youtai is a first-rate genius and a formidable enemy.

'A devastating blow!'

His scarlet robes fluttered fiercely, surrounded by a menacing aura, as imposing and majestic as a deep pool.

Only by severely damaging Yan Youtai can we proceed with any further plans.

'We've exhausted all means and strategies, and now we've reached the most crucial step.'

In this battle of wits, who will emerge victorious?

"Do it!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Fang Yi looked up to the sky and roared, gathering a dark aura in his five fingers before striking down with a sudden blow.

"Great Ghost Palm!"

"It's rare to find someone with such a bold and unrestrained spirit."

Miao Yun, her clothes fluttering, her figure graceful, wielded the Xuan Yue Blade to slash.

"Zheng!"

The silver moon blade, emitting a cold light, split in two, and the Chaoyun and Island Formation flags fell.

“Bullying the weak is not the act of a Golden Core cultivator.”

With a flick of his fingertip, Yan Youtai's Nine-Wood Azure Dragon Staff, accompanied by bursts of dragon roars, shattered the Moon Blade.

Then the Heavenly Secrets Eight Trigrams Disc rotated, and a silver streak shattered the Yin Soul Handprint.

"Wow!"

With a wave of his sleeve, a vast aura entangled Miao Yun and Fang Yi, heading towards the Gangfeng layer.

"Xuanzhi, Yufengzi, Yanli, this Yunhe Island is now in your hands."

Miao Yun was also unwilling to let Yunhe Island be destroyed. Seeing Yan Youtai step out of the formation, she transformed into azure spiritual light and followed closely behind.

Fang Yi's eyes closed slightly, and the black jade lotus platform beneath his feet opened and closed, turning into afterimages.

Above the gale layer.

Ancient runes were drawn, silver light swirled, ghostly aura spread, and azure water flowed gently.

The three paths, some mysterious, some sinister, and some with a long, distinct energy, stand in opposition to each other.

Yan Youtai's eyes flashed with the divination symbols, sweeping over Fang Yi, whose face was young and who was wearing a scarlet robe, and Miao Yun, who was wearing a green-patterned wide-sleeved robe.

"Strange, very strange."
Yin Gu, you old thing, you fake core cultivator turned to corpse cultivation, even if you advance to the mid-stage of Core Formation.

The threat I face is actually greater than Miao Yun's Golden Core?

Fang Yi chuckled lightly and spoke with a carefree air.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, what's the point of things coming to this? It's just a matter of the victor becoming king and the loser becoming a bandit."

"Haha, it's I who's being pretentious."

A silver sun rose behind Yan Youtai, illuminating all directions.

"However, the winner takes all!"

I want to see what gives you, this old corpse, the confidence to challenge the Golden Core cultivator, Miao Yun.

"How dare you provoke me!"

Two ancient runes rose from his dantian, connecting all directions.

"A wondrous method: Summoning wind and rain!"

"A wondrous technique: Wielding thunder and lightning!"

Dark, heavy clouds gathered, thunder roared, winds howled, and torrential rain poured down.

"Imperial Decree: Azure Dragon Fighting Dragon Technique!"

"sing"

The Nine-Wood Azure Dragon Staff was summoned, transforming into a ferocious azure dragon, accompanied by lightning and armored by wind and rain, as it pounced towards Miao Yun.

"Fellow Daoist Yin Gu, now it's just the two of us left."

Yan Youtai swallowed a pill, his complexion returned to its rosy hue, and he calmly raised three fingers.

"Four-quarters of an hour!"

With Miao Yun's skill, the Azure Dragon Fighting Dragon Technique could trap her for three quarters of an hour.

If Yin Gu can withstand my attacks for three quarters of an hour, then Yunhe Island will be yours.

What if not?

"I'll trouble you two to spare your lives!"

"Hold on for three-quarters of an hour?" A sharp glint rose in Fang Yi's deep eyes. "Fellow Daoist Yan, don't regret this later."
