Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 863 Seizing Magic Power
Sneak attacks are not in her nature, let alone using a Buddha statue as a weapon, which is a highly disrespectful act.

If it weren't for some audacious guy constantly egging her on, she would never have imagined she could fight like this in her entire life...

But the effect is really good.

The Imperial Preceptor's disciple scrambled to his feet from the rubble, his robes shielding him from the impact, but his face was terribly grim, not from anger at being ambushed.

He, who cultivates the Taiyin True Scripture, is definitely not a good person, and he is highly accepting of such disrespectful methods.

What really annoyed them was that the veil had fallen off.

The lower half of his face was exposed to the moonlight. It didn't look like a human face at all, but rather like a melted jellyfish. His skin was translucent and gelatinous, and it also had an eerie blue glow.

Xiaoqing would never let such an opportunity slip by.

He immediately scoffed, "It's frighteningly ugly."

She was sharp-tongued, her venom raining down like raindrops. She vented all the pent-up frustration she'd suffered at Xu Xuan's hands on this unfortunate fellow.

Outstanding effect!

The Imperial Preceptor's disciple completely lost control.

With his hands forming a hand seal, the golden cranes embroidered on his Taoist robe came to life, hundreds and thousands of them flapping their wings and flying out to form a killing formation in the air!
"die!!"

Golden cranes swooped down like a storm, each carrying a sharp sword aura. The blue and white snakes faced off back to back, their sword light and demonic energy intertwining, illuminating the interior of the Returning Dragon Pagoda in a flickering light.

As a core disciple who follows the Imperial Preceptor "Fulongting", he has an inexhaustible supply of magical treasures!
Even when the two sisters joined forces, they were forced into a series of defeats.

They fought their way from the first floor to the seventh floor, from inside the tower to the eaves, and then fell back to the ground from the top floor.

The most terrifying move was the Heavenly Net, which pierced through the seven-story pagoda with golden light, causing the supporting pillars to collapse!
Rumble——!
The Huilong Pagoda finally gave way, and bricks and stones fell like rain, sending dust billowing into the sky!

Three figures darted out from the collapsed tower shadows and landed steadily outside the ruins.

Xiaoqing shook the dust off her hair, pursed her lips, and thought to herself that Xu's first goal had finally been achieved.

Turning his head to look at the Imperial Preceptor's disciple, who was mostly buried under the rubble, a cold light flashed in his snake eyes. "Next... it's time to capture them alive."

Just at this time.

Several streaks of light pierced through the clouds, like shooting stars chasing the moon or golden crows falling to earth, illuminating the ruins of the Huilong Pagoda as if it were daytime!
The stream of light landed in front of Xiaoqing, revealing five treasures radiating divine light:

A suit of emerald armor, its scales shimmering like newly risen spring water; two swords, male and female, their cold gleams seeming to intertwine like yin and yang; a pair of cloud-riding boots, their cloud patterns swirling like celestial shoes descending to earth; a dragon's sinew binding a demon's sash, its golden threads coiling and concealing a dragon's roar!
Xiaoqing's eyes lit up; she knew that reinforcements from Baoqing Workshop had arrived. She immediately made a hand seal, chanted an incantation, and softly shouted, "Go!"

The Azure Cloud Armor instantly disintegrated with a "whoosh," transforming into three hundred and sixty jade scales that, as if imbued with life, covered the delicate body. The breastplate bore a glaring dragon, the shoulder blades spewed flames, and the jade belt at the waist was adorned with Yazi patterns—truly:
Dragon scales reflect the moon's cold light, a lion spews flames as crimson clouds soar. One step shatters mountains and rivers, twin swords flash across nineteen continents!

The moment the twin swords were in hand, their chilling gleam pierced to the bone. With a casual flourish, Xiaoqing caused the surrounding wind and rain to reverse, turning all the rubble within a three-zhang radius into dust!
As soon as the Wave-Treading Boots were put on, clouds and mist arose beneath his feet; the Dragon Tendon Ribbon was tied around his waist, and his demonic power surged and churned like boiling water!

"Hahaha!" Xiaoqing laughed loudly, pointing her sword at the ruins. "You dog of a Taoist! Now it's my turn to play with you!"

The sense of security derived from the magical artifact, transforming a poor little demon into a nouveau riche, truly made the demon happy.

At the same time, several other bright streams of light, like the Milky Way falling down, appeared in front of Xiaobai.

The "Snow Wave Silver Scale Armor" was as pure white as fresh snow after a storm. Each piece of armor was like an ice sculpture or jade carving. The jade dragon coiled on the breastplate had eyes that shone brightly, and its whiskers trembled in the wind, as if it were about to break through the armor and fly out at any moment.

The "Lilong Cold Light Sword" has a crystal-clear blade like ten-thousand-year-old black ice. The dragon patterns flowing on the blade appear and disappear under the moonlight. Just by standing still and hovering in the air, the water vapor within three zhang around it condenses into frost.

A pair of "Snow-Treading Shoes" with the Big Dipper embroidered in silver thread on their pure white uppers create a cloud-like staircase when you walk lightly, as if you are stepping on the Milky Way in the heavens.

A "Binding Immortal Silk Ribbon" is as thin as a cicada's wing and covered with stardust. It appears to be delicate and fragile, but in reality, it contains thirty-six binding restrictions.

Xiao Bai made a hand seal with her slender fingers and softly exclaimed, "Combine!"

The snow-white silver scales instantly disintegrated into a shower of silver light, cascading over her exquisite figure like a galaxy. The Li Long Cold Light Sword emitted a clear, melodious dragon's roar and leaped into her palm. As the dragon patterns danced across the sword's blade, they resonated with the jade hairpin in her hair, causing the surrounding pebbles to float three inches into the air!
boom--!
The spiritual pressure unleashed by the two snake demons soared into the sky, forming a blue and white pillar of light in the night sky.

The once arrogant disciple of the Imperial Preceptor was forced to retreat three steps by this imposing force, and the gelatinous skin on his face began to twitch unnaturally.

"A mere snake demon," he forced a cold laugh, "so what if she has a magic weapon?"

Xiao Bai didn't reply, but simply took out a jade bottle from the brocade pouch at her waist. As soon as the stopper was opened, seven-colored rays of light burst forth.

The crimson patterns moved like living things, and the medicinal fragrance they emitted caused all the plants within a ten-zhang radius to sprout and grow instantly.

"click, click"

Xiaoqing had already chewed the two candies like candy, and her wounds were healing at a visible speed, while her demonic power was rising steadily.

Xiao Bai gracefully held the pill under her tongue, and in an instant, her pale face regained its color, even the jade hairpin in her hair brightened a bit.

The Imperial Preceptor's disciple's hand froze in mid-air, his lips twitching wildly: "...You?"

This isn't some amateur snake demon! Its equipment and supplies are several times better than mine!

The fight begins again!

In the distance, Xu Xuan smiled at the shop owner beside him and said, "I have taken Baoqingfang's cooperative attitude to heart. After this transaction, we will truly be even. You don't need to be so wary that I will drag you down with me."

The little girl took a puff of her pipe, her guard slightly lowered: "I hope you keep your word."

"Don't talk like that. You can rest assured about my character."

"I'll definitely think of you when something good happens in the future."

Someone continues to firmly maintain their image as a good person.

When Xu Xuan walked calmly under the moonlight, what came into view was a scene of broken walls and ruins.

In the center of the ruins, the Imperial Preceptor's disciple was bound by both the Dragon Tendon Demon-Binding Ribbon and the Immortal-Binding Silk Gauze, lying on the ground like a dead dog.

His chest heaved slightly, and his face was ashen. There was no trace of his previous arrogance.

Seeing Xu Xuan approach, he struggled to lift his head, a last glimmer of hope still lingering in his eyes:
"And who are you?"

"I am the Imperial Preceptor's personal disciple! If you know what's good for you..."

Xu Xuan shook his head, a look of disappointment on his face—that's it?
"Do you know who I am?"

The Taoist shook his head; how could he know such a thing?

"You don't even know who I am, so what am I afraid of?"

With a gesture of invitation, Xiaobai immediately understood and presented the hairpin with both hands.

"You, be careful." There was still some worry in his eyes, after all, this kind of thing was risky.

Xu Xuan calmly accepted the jade hairpin without the slightest worry.

For some reason, he always felt that he could easily master the so-called Taiyin True Scripture.

Without hesitation, pierce the other's heart!
“Ugh!”

Amidst the piercing screams, the hairpin emitted an eerie blue light. Although Xu Xuan did not understand the methods of absorbing internal energy, this treasure would guide him.

Taiyin True Scripture, Circulation!
The immense magical power surged forth from the Taoist's body like a river bursting its banks, flowing continuously into Xu Xuan's meridians through the hairpin.

Acupoints opened! Bones and muscles reshaped! Soul transcended the mortal realm! Physical body reborn!
With my eyes closed, I felt this power, and a slight smile appeared on my lips—this feeling was quite nice.

As for memory confusion and emotional interference?
does not exist at all!

A firm will melted away all the junk information.

This man-eating technique seemed to exist specifically for him; he could control it with ease.

The body's instincts are awakening.

I, Xu Xuan, am the protagonist!

Moments later, only a shrunken, desiccated corpse remained on the ground. A night wind blew, and the dry skin peeled off in a rustling sound, revealing the ugly, gelatinous substance beneath.

Xu Xuan pulled out the jade hairpin, casually tossed it back to Xiao Bai, and turned to the green snake, saying:

"Xiao Qing, take his token back."

"In the name of Baoan Hall, we invite your master to form an alliance here to jointly eliminate the Imperial Preceptor."

His voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable power. In the moonlight, a chilling flame flickered in the eyes of this young man who had just gained magical power.

Xiaoqing obediently accepted the token, and suddenly felt that perhaps following this madman could really solve the snake clan's biggest problem.

Moreover, Xu Xuan was already terrifying without magic power; wouldn't he be twice as terrifying with it?

"Oh right, it's a tripartite alliance."

"The owner has entrusted me with full authority to represent him and participate in this grand event."

Xu Xuan once said that he would think of his friends when good things happen, and this is exactly what good things have happened to him.

　I'm not feeling well today, I'll make up for it tomorrow.
