Building a long-lasting family lineage starting with genealogy

Chapter 262 Ghost Market Transactions, Xu Mingxian's Path! (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

"May I ask your name, fairy?" Yan Han asked.

Xu Deyue remained silent, while Ye Fan smiled and asked, "Brother Yan, what is the name of my Daoist partner?"

"She's your Daoist partner?!"

Yan Han was immediately surprised upon hearing this.

The people around them were also talking about how such a stunningly beautiful fairy had actually become a Daoist couple with a young cultivator at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment.

What an amazing match!

So enviable!

Yan Han was slightly taken aback, then clasped his hands and said, "I only want to know who my brother and I were defeated by."

“My surname is Ye, and my Daoist partner’s surname is Xu. We are from the Xu family of Yunxi.”

After saying that, the two walked away along the long street.

"Yunxi? Is that the Yunxi Town I know?"

"It seems that Yunxi is now occupied by a Foundation Establishment family surnamed Xu!"

"I remember the Xu family has only been developing for a little over ten years, yet they have such a foundation to cultivate such a prodigy!"

"I've been to Yunxi. There's a cultivation tower there. You can enter to cultivate as long as you pay spirit stones. There's also the Ascension Pavilion, which has all kinds of cultivation resources, including pills, artifacts, arrays, and talismans. There are quite a few rare items there."

Master Ling's masterpieces are primarily available for sale only at Dengxian Pavilion.

"Master Ling?"

"I've heard that he's also from the Xu family. He became a disciple of Master Huoyun of Huoyun Valley in his early years, and his skill in weapon crafting is unparalleled among the younger generation in our Tiancang Prefecture."

Countless people desire a magical artifact but cannot obtain one.

Yan Han watched the two figures disappear into the distance, his pupils shrinking slightly as he exclaimed, "It's actually the Xu family of Yunxi!"

The elders of the Yan family were also surprised, saying, "We never expected that the Xu family would have two such outstanding juniors!"

"He was only allowed to travel outside on the eve of the Grand Gathering of the Prodigies!"

"Yan Han, what do you think of this woman compared to you, Madman?"

Yan Han pondered for a moment and said, "Xu Xianzi did not use her full strength. Since she is a member of Master Ling's clan, she must have no shortage of two-pattern magic weapons, and may even have more than one."

She is only at the mid-stage of the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, yet her magical power is no less than mine.

She may not be as good as the Madman now, but if she reaches the Foundation Establishment stage in a year, her magical power and spiritual sense will be at their peak, and she will have no weaknesses.

Back then, it was really hard to say who would win or lose.

The elder of the Yan family sighed softly: "Every time there is a grand gathering of geniuses, there are unknown talents who suddenly emerge, break into the main selection, and even make it onto the list of geniuses."

You must remember not to be arrogant or look down on others!

“Yan Qing, you have spoken rudely and acted rashly. Go to the Discipline Hall and receive twenty lashes, then face the wall and reflect on your mistakes for a month.”

Just as Yan Qing was about to say something, he saw his elder brother's cold gaze and immediately lowered his head and clasped his hands, saying, "Disciple Yan Qing will obey the elder's command."

"Yan Han, your strength gives you a sliver of hope to pass the arena battle. My Yan family will find a suitable two-patterned magic weapon for you to lend you a helping hand."

That way, you can lend a hand to the madman.

"Thank you, Elder. Yan Qing will do his best."

The Tianjiao Grand Gathering has an age limit for participants; only those within the age range of 60 years old are eligible to participate.

This age group is considered part of the younger generation.

Those who are more than two cycles of sixty years old belong to the older generation.

Ye Fan and Xu Deyue traveled outside and challenged some well-established families or Golden Core clans not for fame.

It is for their descendants.

That's right, the couple had a son, Xu Chongfei, more than two years ago.

A top-tier earth spirit root physique, with 70% spirit root purity, just one hair away from becoming a heaven spirit root.

He was born with the Fiery Cold Spirit Body.

Due to his special physical condition, if he wants to embark on the path of cultivation, he must practice the rare technique of cultivating both water and fire.

Otherwise, forcing oneself to cultivate may lead to a conflict between water and fire spiritual energies, resulting in the complete rupture of meridians.

After the Xu family's efforts to collect information proved fruitless, the two began to challenge various families, using the challenge as a pretext to inquire about such martial arts techniques.

It's the grand gathering of geniuses, so even if you go to block the entrance, no one will target you.

The two challenged numerous families and Golden Core clans over the past month, but unfortunately, they received no news.

If there is really no other way, one can only participate in the Grand Gathering of Prodigies, break into the Prodigy Ranking, and then make such a request.

Those who break into the Heavenly Pride Ranking can make their own requests if they do not want the rewards, and if the requests are reasonable, the five top powers will grant them.

The Xu family business has now been renamed Dengxian Pavilion.

The address has also been moved.

However, the underground ghost market has been preserved.

It is held every three months, and all participants wear masks prepared by the Xu family that can block divine sense detection.

The Xu family holds transactions and charges a fee, and occasionally they also trade items they need.

There are four entrances to the Ghost Market, all located outside Yunxi Town.

Furthermore, they are all equipped with a third-tier concealment array and a defensive array.

Without activating the grand formation, even a Golden Core cultivator would find it difficult to discover the entrance.

The profits that the Ghost Market brought to the Xu family were not much less than those of the Ascension Pavilion. In fact, some rare spiritual herbs, materials, and pill formulas were obtained from the Ghost Market.

Underground in Yunxi Town.

The location of the ghost market.

Tonight is another night of the once-a-month ghost market trading.

From having very few at the beginning, it has now become quite famous.

People from the seven cities of Tiancang, and even disciples from the three sects, will come to take a look.

"According to the old rules, my master will first throw out a brick to set the stage for this Ghost Market transaction. Next, fellow Daoists, if you have any items you wish to trade, you may come up on stage to introduce them and state what you wish to trade."

Remember, in the "ghost market" (or "ghost market"), the origin of the goods or services is irrelevant.

I also urge the newer fellow cultivators to control their words and actions and refrain from speaking recklessly.

then.

The masked, black-robed cultivator patted his storage bag, and a magical artifact flew out. It was sharp at the top and square at the bottom, about the size of a palm, and dark brown in color. It hovered in mid-air.

"This is a magical artifact that combines offense and defense, named the Tianshan Seal."

"This seal is made of Xuanjing Mountain rock, which is extremely hard. It is engraved with the character 'mountain'. When activated, it is like a small mountain crashing down. It can exert pressure and its power is amazing."

It can also form a defensive light barrier. Even if the defensive light barrier is broken, it can still serve as a defensive magic weapon. Top-tier magic weapons can hardly destroy it.

It can withstand the onslaught of a top-tier magic weapon set or a level two magic weapon for a period of time.

"What a magic weapon!"

Many people were immediately impressed, feeling that this seal was no less powerful than a typical two-pattern attack magic weapon.

And today, the grand event is about to begin.

Countless Foundation Establishment cultivators desire a powerful and handy magic weapon to help them make a name for themselves at the Grand Gathering of Prodigies.

There were about twenty or thirty people in the room, and each of them wore a different kind of mask.

Although their expressions were unclear, the greed in their eyes was hard to conceal.

As for the black-robed cultivator who presided over the ceremony, it was Wu Zhusan, currently the most powerful cultivator in the Wu clan, at the late stage of the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Most of the Wu family members possess true spiritual roots and have excellent aptitude.

Xu Chuan spared no effort in training them so that they could take on some of the Xu family's affairs as soon as possible.

Nowadays, almost all men and women in the Wu family are at least in the late stage of Qi Refining.

Their descendants, the older ones, have already begun cultivating and have reached the second or third level of Qi Refining.

"The Heavenly Mountain Seal is worth 3,600 spirit stones. It can be exchanged for various sources of cultivation such as magic weapons, spiritual medicines, and cultivation techniques. Alternatively, a message can be exchanged for 1,800 spirit stones."

"May I ask, Ghost Messenger, what news is worth 1,800 spirit stones?" someone asked.

"The news is about a cultivation technique that combines water and fire. It requires cultivation to the Golden Core stage. If you have this technique, you can take this magic weapon directly and get another thousand spirit stones as a bonus."

"hiss!"

Everyone gasped.

Unless it is a cultivation technique passed down by a certain family, even a Golden Core cultivation technique is only worth one or two thousand spirit stones.

Especially for some independent cultivators, cultivation techniques are even less valuable.

As long as you don't leak out the cultivation techniques you practice, there's no problem.

Shortly afterward, no one provided this information.

The Tianshan Seal was eventually traded to a man wearing a monkey-face mask.

After that, the people present made their transactions.

Among them, there were many rare items being traded, but most of them were treasures for protection or for killing. It is likely that either someone from their clan was participating in the Gathering of Prodigies, or they themselves were going to participate and wanted to add more trump cards to their deck.

The Grand Gathering of Geniuses.

It's not just a simple battle on the arena.

There are also battles in secret realms.

The most casualties occurred in the battle for the secret realm, where everyone used all their trump cards and formed alliances to secure the final spot for the top talents.

Those who stand out must possess at least two of the following: luck, ability, methods, and strategy.

An hour later.

"This Ghost Market transaction has come to an end. Welcome, fellow cultivators, to come again next time!"

Everyone stood up and walked out of the trading hall.

There are four passageways leading to this hall.
Before leaving, everyone must return the Ghost Market Mask and then choose a passage to leave. One person can enter the passage every sixty breaths.

This ensures that people will not have conflicts in the ghost market.

Whether they hunt each other outside is none of the Ghost Market's business.

After one person left, the entrances to the ghost market completely disappeared.

Even if a Golden Core cultivator were to arrive at this moment, they would not be detected by divine sense.

Those who leave will be blocked from entering again by a defensive array unless guided by someone from the Ghost Market.

"This Yunxi Ghost Market has some depth; the person behind it must be quite powerful!"

Upon hearing this, one person muttered to himself and then quickly flew towards the Tiancang Mountains.

Wu Zhusan followed the hidden passage to the surface.

The ground was originally occupied by the Xu family's trading company, but now it is a cultivation restaurant run by the Wu family. Wu Zhusan is the restaurant manager and also handles the ghost market transactions for the Xu family.

He left the restaurant and headed towards the Xu family's estate.

Report the results of this ghost market and submit the proceeds.

Wu Zhusan arrived at Xu Chuan's meditation room, cupped his hands and said, "Patriarch, the Ghost Market transactions have ended, and there is no news of the Water and Fire Simultaneous Cultivation Technique. This is the profit from this transaction."

The door opened, and the storage bag in Wu Zhusan's hand was instantly taken inside.

"You've worked hard, go back and rest."

"Yes, master."

When Wu Zhusan returned home, his wife and children were resting. He did not disturb them and quietly continued his spiritual practice until dawn.

The next day, after having breakfast with his family, he returned to the restaurant to open for business.

They were all slaves in the past, and their current happy life was hard-won, so they cherished it all the more and did their best to improve their cultivation and serve the Xu family.

The Wu and Yan families, with the most descendants, already have five children.

Even the fewest have three.

Therefore, the two branches combined have produced more than a hundred descendants.

The fastest way to create a celestial seedling is naturally to marry and have many children.

However, they were all troubled by their status as slaves and were afraid of being discovered by outsiders. Now, their union in pairs was the most suitable.

Moreover, even if their next generation cannot produce five immortal seedlings, the next generation after that is very likely to be able to.

Even the generation after that won't work. Only by the third generation can they obtain Xu Chuan's promise to remove the blue-and-white mark from their bodies.

The next day.

Xu Chuan tends to his medicinal herb garden.

Then a giant Moyue, several feet in size, flew over, carrying a three-year-old child in its claws.

"Ancestor, ancestor."

Upon seeing Xu Chuan, the three-year-old immediately waved his chubby little hands, which resembled lotus roots, and began to shout.

This person is Xu Chongfei, the son of Xu Deyue and Ye Fan.

The first descendant of the Xu family with an earth spirit root, and also a top earth spirit root genius with a rare spiritual body.

Xu Deyue and Ye Fan spent most of their time traveling because of his cultivation techniques.

Xu Chuan also needs to cultivate and comprehend supernatural powers.

Mo Yue's strength has been fully restored. After consuming the Dragon Cloud Pill, his dragon bloodline has become even purer, and he has also gained a trace of true dragon bloodline, further enhancing his combat power.

With nothing else to do, he had no choice but to help take care of the children.

"Xu Chuan, that brat Xu Chongfei actually dared to pee on me! I can't take him anymore, you take him yourself!" Mo Yue grinned at him after putting Xu Chongfei down.

"Otherwise, I will eventually be unable to resist swallowing him whole."

Xu Chuan smiled slightly, "Who was it that said they could take care of a child? It was a piece of cake."

“Our young dragons don’t have such troubles. They can hunt their own prey shortly after birth!”

"Anyway, you have nothing to do, so take care of him for a few more years and he'll grow up eventually."

"I feel like I've lost several years of my life in just half a month, even though I still have a few years left!"

"It's all an illusion!"

Xu Chuan clasped his hands in a fist and walked over to Xu Chongfei, patted his head and said, "Look at Xiao Fei, he's so young, what could he possibly know? He won't wet the bed in another two years."

A pair of dragon eyes and a pair of jet-black pupils stared at each other.

The next moment, Xu Chongfei stretched out his hand and said, "Longlong, Feifei."

Mo Yue rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Xu Chuan looked at him with a smile, and he had no choice but to use his divine sense to place it on his back.

"I've had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to be tied to your Xu family. I'm a dignified peak third-tier demon, a being capable of dominating a region, and I still have to raise your Xu family's children!"

Mo Yue kept rambling on, but continued to wander around, prompting Xu Chongfei to clap his hands and laugh non-stop.

"Speaking of which, isn't the Heavenly Pride Gathering about to begin?"

"This is a grand gathering for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. I imagine that there are already a few people in Dongxi who have reached the peak of Foundation Establishment by now."

Like Ren Xiaoyao and Xu Mingwei, both of them are skilled in combat.

"Should I go back and bring them here?"

"Are you sure this won't provoke the Ancient Locust Tree King to stop us? And the closer we get to the [Blood Feast], the more the demons of the Hundred Thousand Mountains will likely take it seriously."

If this were to happen and lead to a leak, it would be detrimental to the Xu family.

Mo Yue fell silent upon hearing this.

He had to admit that Xu Chuan's thinking was correct.

"As long as we survive this great calamity, things will be easier afterward. And once I help the Tree King's descendants awaken their intelligence and become demons, I think he will be more likely to turn a blind eye to my Xu family."

I still can't figure out what role the Tree King plays.

"He's survived since ancient times, is he really only at the late Golden Core stage?" Xu Chuan looked at Mo Yue with a solemn expression. "If he were a fourth-tier great demon, concealing his true power, do you think you could see through him?"

Mo Yue pondered for a moment and said, "He is a wood demon with extremely strong control over his aura and is good at concealing it. If he is at the fourth level, even if I recover to my full strength, I may not be able to see through him without him making a move."

Many races among the demonic beasts possess powerful talents, which, when unleashed, are no less than the divine abilities comprehended by you cultivators, and may even be more profound.

"So there's no need to rush. This is the best way for them. It's not difficult for the Xu family members to reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Each of them will have at least 240 years of lifespan."

Even I'm not yet sixty years old, so they certainly have a long way to go.

"Speaking of which, your progress is indeed extraordinary. You seem to have average talent, but you have been making progress all along."

Even for those Foundation Establishment cultivators, comprehending supernatural techniques is as difficult as ascending to heaven, yet you can keep comprehending and keep improving.

There's a problem, a really big problem!

At this moment, Xu Chongfei also shouted incoherently, "There's a problem, there's a problem."

"What's wrong?"

A voice suddenly came, and then a handsome young man dressed in a moon-white robe walked towards the morning light.

"Grandpa, Grandpa."

Upon seeing Xu Mingxian, Xu Chongfei waved happily.

Xu Mingxian smiled faintly, walked up to Xu Chuan, and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Father, Uncle Mo Yue."

"What are you talking about, so enthusiastically?"

“I think there’s something very wrong with your father. He might have unimaginable talent, after all, even understanding supernatural powers is no problem for him.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Mingxian smiled slightly.

The brothers had already discovered this.

Even among the children of a Nascent Soul cultivator, it's impossible for each one to be so outstanding, possessing exceptional talents and unique strengths.

It's as if someone deliberately bestowed upon them a certain talent to help the family's development.

This was the Xu family's biggest secret. Even though Xu Mingxian and the others had guessed a little about it, they kept it to themselves and didn't ask any questions.

They only need to trust their father.

"Regarding supernatural powers, I have actually fully comprehended their power and grasped their true meaning."

"Father has mastered the basics of supernatural powers? Does that mean he can immediately form a core through supernatural powers?!" Xu Mingxian suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Mo Yue's eyes widened as well, "How could I not know?"

“But my situation is a little different.” Xu Chuan sighed softly. “For others, like me, once they comprehend the true meaning of supernatural powers and enter the realm of supernatural powers, they can condense the seed of supernatural powers and form a core with it.”

Because they all comprehend existing supernatural powers.

First understand the method, then comprehend its true meaning.

Once you understand a portion of the true meaning, you've entered the realm of supernatural powers.

And I”

Xu Chuan paused for a moment, then continued, "I directly comprehended the true meaning of supernatural powers, but I did not obtain the method."

"What do you mean?" Mo Yue felt more and more confused as he listened.

"This means that Father unintentionally embarked on the path of comprehending supernatural powers on his own. He did not learn the supernatural powers of his predecessors, but rather took the heavens and the earth as his teachers, comprehended supernatural powers on his own, and created supernatural powers himself!"

"My self-created divine ability? What level are you even at?"

Mo Yue's dragon eyes widened as if they were about to jump out of their sockets. "Among the Golden Core cultivators, only a very few geniuses can create their own supernatural abilities."

And that mostly happened in an era when supernatural powers were rare.

Nowadays, there are many Golden Elixir lineages containing supernatural powers and methods, and almost no one chooses to create their own; they all simply copy what others have learned.

Only when one reaches a certain level, and has accumulated sufficient knowledge and understanding, can one create supernatural abilities that best suit oneself.

"You'd be considered a prodigy even in ancient times, wouldn't you?"

"It was just a chance realization, nothing more," Xu Chuan said with a smile, waving his hand. "No need to make a fuss about it."

The [Withering and Flourishing, Life and Death] supernatural destiny talent, coupled with being an alchemist who frequently deals with herbs and spiritual medicines, and mainly cultivating wood-based techniques, plus the [Heaven Rewards Diligence] destiny talent.

Only then did Xu Chuan embark on the path of comprehending and creating supernatural powers during the Foundation Establishment stage.

Perhaps some Golden Elixir cultivation methods record supernatural techniques involving decay and prosperity.

However, Xu Chuan's insights resonate with his own, and once he creates this divine power, it will undoubtedly be the most powerful divine power that best suits him.

"So, you're stuck at the creation stage now?" Mo Yue asked.

Xu Chuan nodded. "Senior Sister Murong Yun didn't expect me to be in this situation either. However, she has experience in creating her own supernatural abilities and has already given me some pointers, so I'm not entirely clueless."

However, to truly create something extraordinary, one must comprehend the true meaning of supernatural powers to a minor level; only then can success come naturally.

"Xu Chuan, I don't even know what to say to you. You've only achieved minor mastery of a supernatural power. Xu Deling's master, True Man Huoyun, has cultivated for decades and still hasn't achieved minor mastery of a single supernatural power."

Mo Yue shook its dragon tail.

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Didn't you say I've been making progress all along? Don't worry, I believe this step won't take long."

"Do as you please, I don't care whether you've formed your core or not." Mo Yuelong raised his head. "Even if you have formed your core through supernatural powers, I can still suppress you with a single claw!"

Even a peak third-tier dragon would require a late-stage Golden Core Realm cultivator to truly contend with, let alone a Golden Core True Monarch.

That arrogant old dragon!

Xu Chuan shook his head and chuckled, looking at Xu Mingxian. He had already recovered from his shock. "Is something the matter?"

"There is indeed something I need to do," Xu Mingxian said. "I would like to participate in the Gathering of Prodigies."

Upon hearing this, Xu Chuan's pupils contracted slightly.

Even Mo Yue was extremely surprised, "Although you have reached the Foundation Establishment stage, you are just a formation master. How can you compete with a group of cultivators who are used to life and death battles?"

There's no time for you to set up your formation on the fighting stage.

No matter how fast you move, your opponent has enough strength to kill you ten times over.

"Have you forged your own path in the battlefield?" Xu Chuan pondered.

“Father understands me.” Xu Mingxian continued with a faint smile, “When I was young, I admired my elder brother for creating his own archery technique and dominating the battlefield. His demeanor was something I longed for.”

My father ordered me to learn the formation, and I dared not disobey, but my desire for battle has never been extinguished.

Years ago, I said that one day I would walk my own path on the battlefield.

Two years ago, I reached the peak of Foundation Establishment and my consciousness entered the Golden Core realm.

After that, he studied the array manuals given to him by his master day and night, and also observed the trends of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers.

One day, a multitude of thoughts suddenly flooded my mind.

The flowing clouds between heaven and earth are the patterns of the formation, the mountains and rivers are the foundation of the formation, and the wind and rain are the formation's momentum.

original.

Heaven and earth are the formation!

Xu Chuan was deeply moved.

Mo Yue exclaimed inwardly, "Why do I feel like I'm the most mediocre member of the Xu family?"

"Use your body as the core of the formation, gather the power of heaven and earth, inscribe the formation patterns with your magic power, and the formation can be formed with a single thought!"

As the last few words were spoken, Xu Mingxian's aura changed drastically.

He lightly stepped down with both feet, his hands forming a mysterious hand seal. The magical power within his dantian surged out like a tide, but instead of spreading outwards, it transformed into specks of spiritual light along his fingertips and merged into the surrounding space.

The grass and trees in the courtyard swayed, and the clouds drifted in the sky.

Xu Mingxian's hair twitched slightly, and faint blue array patterns appeared on his forehead, a sign that he had used his divine sense as a guide to transform himself into the array's core.

He gently closed his eyes and murmured, "The formation is complete in a single thought!"

As soon as he finished speaking, something unexpected happened!
A faint blue light emanated from all around, and countless fine array patterns emerged from the void, instantly weaving together to form an array about ten feet square.

The spiritual energy surged between the array patterns, attracting wind-type spiritual energy from heaven and earth, which transformed into wisps of green light and merged into the array.

"I didn't expect you to have achieved this. This formation is comparable to a low-grade second-tier formation, isn't it?"

Xu Mingxian slowly opened his eyes, raised his hand and gestured, and the wind blades within the formation suddenly condensed, transforming into a long sword with a blue light, which hung in the center of the formation.

"That's about right. This is all I can manage for now. It's far from perfect."

"Some powerful Foundation Establishment cultivators at the peak of their cultivation can shatter second-tier low-grade formations with their techniques and powerful magic weapons," Xu Chuan reminded them.

"Father is right, but if it's broken, it can be put back together, it just takes some magic power."

Xu Mingxian smiled faintly: "To truly break the formation, either the power must be so great that it affects the space, or my magic power must be exhausted, or my divine sense must be completely depleted."

Of course, if one dies, the array's core will be broken, and the array will naturally dissipate.

"The power of one formation is indeed insufficient, but if several are set up, once the formation is complete, it will draw upon the power of heaven and earth, which will be inexhaustible."

The deeper one's understanding of formations and the deeper one's understanding of heaven and earth, the stronger the formations become, and the more endless their variations become.

Defense, killing, trapping, illusion, sealing—their transformations are but a thought away.

"A monster!" Mo Yue stared at Xu Mingxian for a while, then turned to look at Xu Chuan. "How come your Xu family is full of monsters!"

"Since you admire it so much, Mo Yue, then you can try Ming Xian's methods."

As he spoke, he beckoned Xu Chongfei into his arms.

"Let's try it. Even if I seal my strength, I don't believe that a mere second-tier formation can harm my peak third-tier dragon body."

"Go to the martial arts arena. Don't ruin the medicinal herbs I've worked so hard to cultivate here," Xu Chuan said.

Xu Family Martial Arts Arena.

It covers an area of ​​several acres, with the ground paved with dark and hard black jade rock, and eight blue stone pillars standing around it.

At this moment, a faint golden halo appeared around the arena, enveloping the entire arena.

This is a top-tier second-order formation, sufficient for a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators to engage in full-force sparring without the aftershocks of the battle leaking out.

In the field.

Mo Yue transformed into a dragon several meters long, hovering in mid-air, its dark blue scales gleaming coldly, its dragon eyes sweeping over Xu Mingxian.

Xu Mingxian, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, her sleeves fluttering in the breeze, stood facing Mo Yue.

He had a handsome face, a calm demeanor between his brows, and a hidden magical power flowing around him.

With a light sweep of its tail, Mo Yuelong launched a whistling gust of wind and attacked Xu Mingxian first.

Xu Mingxian remained calm, using the Cloud-Walking Step to dodge quickly while simultaneously forming hand seals, his internal magical power surging.

First, the Wood Battle Formation condensed, and countless vines sprouted from the ground, layer upon layer, trying to bind Mo Yue's dragon tail.

Even though Mo Yue sealed his cultivation, he is now in the form of a peak second-tier dragon.

The power of its dragon tail cannot be contained by ordinary vines.

Almost instantly, all the vines snapped.

But as Xu Mingxian said, as long as the formation is not broken, the attacks will continue.

The vines seemed endless, and Mo Yue's pursuit of Xu Mingxian was immediately halted. As he opened his mouth, countless ice spikes condensed in the air and rained down, instantly piercing through all the vines.

But several breaths had already passed by then.

A new battle formation has been formed, an earth-based battle formation.

Countless rock chains flew out, locking Mo Yue's four dragon claws and head.

With a sudden swipe of its claws, Mo Yue broke the four chains and shattered the chain around the dragon's head.

However, countless vines continued to rush forward, trying to entangle his dragon tail.

The rock chains are also rapidly solidifying.

Mo Yue finally sensed the trouble and opened his mouth to spew out streams of cold dragon breath.

At this moment, the Fire Battle Formation was also formed by Xu Mingxian.

A crimson light flashed, and countless flames rose up. From the flames flew a fiery wind several meters long, heading towards Mo Yue.

Although it was just a matter of Mo Yue swatting it apart with one paw.

However, the wood element entanglement and the rock lock on his body worked together seamlessly, always preventing him from finding the time to deal with Xu Mingxian himself.

Xu Mingxian's "Nine Flames Technique" was also mastered.

It can separate nine divine consciousnesses, achieving unity of thought among the nine.

Followed by.

The next battle formation, the Metal Battle Formation, was formed.

The metal elemental energy in the world condensed, transforming into countless sharp golden blades that collided with the dragon's body.

The clanging of metal against metal was deafening.

Although the golden blades could not break through, their continuous barrage further slowed down Mo Yue's offensive.

Finally, there is the water battle formation.

As water freezes into ice, Mo Yue also experienced being attacked by countless ice spikes.

"Illusion Array, Condense!"

Without a sound, Xu Mingxian added a sixth battle formation, which enveloped the entire arena.

An invisible wave was constantly eroding Mo Yue.

He possessed a third-order divine sense, which was not self-sealed, and he clearly sensed the attack on the soul.

Xu Mingxian knew this wouldn't affect him, so he incorporated the illusion into his attack, combining the real and the illusory. To outsiders, his offensive suddenly became several times more powerful.

At this moment, Mo Yue was trapped in the endless attacks and restraints of the battle formation, and could not break free at all.

Upon seeing this, Xu Mingxian changed his hand seals, and the Five Elements Battle Array patterns lit up simultaneously.

"The five elements complement each other, seal!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the power of the five elements condensed into nine chains in the air, binding the dragon's tail, four claws, head, and body.

Mo Yue struggled frantically, but for a moment it was unable to shatter them!

"Uncle Mo Yue, I have deduced a mid-grade third-tier formation, the Five Elements Heavenly Gang Formation. I have a deep understanding of the Five Elements and am very familiar with the formation's variations."

Achieving a brief combination of the five elements to boost its power to the second-tier superior grade shouldn't be a problem.

This method of the Five Elements transformation, though simple, is something even a peak second-tier demonic beast could not easily break free from.

"Hmph, it's just a waste of time!" Mo Yue retorted stubbornly.

Xu Mingxian smiled faintly, and her hand gestures changed once again.

"The five elements generate each other, kill!"

The power of the five elements condensed once more, coalescing into a nine-zhang-long (approximately 33 meters) five-colored giant sword, which fell from the sky and pierced towards the body of Moyue Dragon.

The killing formation is the most dangerous.

A killing formation of superior second-tier power, given enough time, is sufficient to annihilate peak second-tier demonic beasts.

Mo Yue seemed to sense a hint of danger, and suddenly roared to the sky, his body instantly growing to more than thirty feet tall.

Shake gently.

The five-colored chains broke one by one.

With a sweep of its tail, the five-colored giant sword shattered instantly, turning into countless points of light.

Its dragon roar instantly reduced the six battle formations to nothingness.

roar~
Comfortable!
"Mo Yue, restore your true form, and you will have lost."

"I am not good at sealing techniques. It broke open on its own when I got excited. Don't blame me."

"You really didn't sense any danger and unlock it yourself?"
