Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog

"Demons?" Lu Jiuchuan was taken aback, then sneered, his smile sinister. "What kind of demons dare to trespass into my Lu Family Mountain City? Just take some men and kill them."

"This is no ordinary demon!" Lu Chongshan exclaimed urgently, sweat beading on his forehead. "That demon is a hundred feet tall, shaped like a giant dog, and its roar is like thunder. The brothers can't stop it at all... Now countless cultivators in the clan have been killed or wounded..."

"If this continues, the entire mountain town will be destroyed."

Lu Jiuchuan's expression finally changed.

He shoved the maid in his arms away, and she fell to the ground with a startled cry.

He stood up, his eyes flashing with a cold light: "Summon the Twelve Capital Guards and follow me to meet the enemy!"

……

The fire-worshiping altar deepest within Lujia Mountain City.

Wu Tian stopped in his tracks. His massive body was like a mountain, casting a shadow that covered half of the mountaintop.

Ahead, Lu Jiuchuan and twelve guards blocked their path.

The twelve guards, including Lu Chongshan, were all dressed in heavy black armor, with incantations engraved on the surface of their armor. The incantations were complex and ancient, radiating a scorching aura.

They all held long halberds, each two zhang long, with dark red flames burning at the tips.

These guards were all at the Refinement Realm, among them Lu Chongshan was at the peak of the eighth level of the True Understanding of the Heavenly Blazing Fire, only one step away from the ninth level. He held a crimson gold halberd, the flames at the tip of the halberd being the most intense.

Lu Jiuchuan himself was dressed in a golden robe and held a halberd with the image of the Heavenly Pillar of Gods carved on its body.

He stood behind the Twelve Capital Guards, his face sinister, his eyes coldly fixed on Wu Tian, ​​his gaze like that of a venomous snake.

"It lacks the Daoist charm of the Demon King, where all laws are unified, the aura is fused into one after the inner core is condensed, and the Daoist charm is in constant communion with heaven and earth."

"This is a powerful demon, a powerful demon with a different kind of bloodline."

Lu Jiuchuan's face lit up with surprise. "I never expected that a strange and ferocious beast would come to our door like this. This is truly a blessing from heaven. As long as we can capture it, any price we have to pay will be worth it."

He was both surprised and delighted, and shouted, "You beast, how dare you run wild in my Lu Family Mountain City?"

Wu Tian looked at him, his dark pupils devoid of emotion, as if he were looking at an ant.

He slowly opened his mouth, and the incantation resounded directly in the minds of everyone present. His voice was deep and majestic, like rolling thunder: "Today, the city will be massacred."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jiuchuan's pupils shrank sharply, and he immediately flew into a rage.

"Arrogant!" Lu Jiuchuan pointed his halberd, and flames surged. "Twelve Guards, form ranks! Kill this beast!"

"Here!"

The twelve guards responded in unison, their voices like thunder.

They quickly dispersed and formed a profound battle formation. The formation was centered around Lu Chongshan, and the positions of the twelve people corresponded to the celestial phenomena. It vaguely contained some of the profound meanings of the Lu family's supreme inheritance, the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation.

Once the battle formation was complete, the twelve people's auras were completely connected, and their magical power surged like a tidal wave, transforming into a towering divine pillar within the formation.

This divine pillar is over a hundred feet tall, inscribed with incantations, surrounded by flames, and its power is astonishing, turning the entire sky crimson.

"kill!"

Lu Chongshan gave the order, his voice like the clang of metal on metal.

The twelve people attacked simultaneously, their movements perfectly synchronized.

Twelve halberds thrust out, their tips gathering flames that merged into the divine pillar within the formation.

The divine pillar crashed down as if it had collapsed.

In that instant, it was as if the pillar of heaven had collapsed and the sky had shattered, and the Divine Pillar of Dutian, like a torrent of lava, rushed straight towards Wutian.

Wherever it passed, the air twisted and exploded, the ground melted, its power was terrifying, as if it could burn everything.

Faced with the towering pillar of divine fire that pressed down like the sky collapsing and the mountains and seas being scorched, Wu Tian's Hundred-Zhang Huodou True Body suddenly tensed up, and the red fur all over his body, which looked like it had been cast in magma, stood up and flowed with dazzling light.

He showed no sign of retreating; instead, he raised his head and roared, his four feet stomping on the ground...

"Boom!"

The mountaintop trembled violently, and countless bottomless cracks instantly shattered on the incredibly solid ground of the fire-worshiping altar. Fiery lava gushed out like an earth dragon turning over, making his massive body appear even more ferocious and terrifying.

The house-sized crimson-gold fireball at the tip of the tail blazed brightly, like a miniature sun fallen to earth.

"Use fire against me?! What a joke!"

The chanting roared, carrying a chilling ferocity and disdain.

Before he could finish speaking, Wu Tian made a move.

He didn't use any fancy supernatural powers; his massive body, like a burning ancient star, crashed head-on into the hundred-foot-tall pillar of divine fire that was collapsing and crushing towards him.

The simplest, the most primitive, and also the most violent!

"Roar!!!"

The earth-shattering roar of the beast erupted once more, intertwining with the booming sound of the divine fire pillar piercing the air, forming a devastating sonic wave.

The next instant...

"boom!"

A terrifying, indescribable roar suddenly erupted.

Centered on the point of impact, a visible ripple spread out, the space twisted violently, and groaned under the strain. The buildings around the fire altar turned into dust silently, like sandcastles, and were instantly vaporized by the extreme heat contained in the ripples, without even a trace of smoke rising.

The pillar of divine fire that seemed capable of supporting the heavens and burning the eight wastelands shattered upon colliding with Wu Tian, ​​like glass struck by a heavy hammer, with countless ancient incantations flashing and flickering wildly before crackling and breaking apart.

The broken pillar of divine fire could no longer maintain its form. The illusory pillar, which had only been barely formed, exploded and turned into a sky full of wild and out-of-control dark red flames.

Like a rain of fire from the apocalypse, it splashed in all directions, igniting areas further from the mountain city and causing a continuous sea of ​​fire.

The twelve guards were thrown backward like kites with broken strings, their halberds dimming, the runes on their heavy armor shattering, and blood seeping from the gaps in their armor.

Their breaths were fading, and they crashed haphazardly into the ruins. Although they could still move, they had suffered severe injuries.

The Twelve Capital Guards, who were said to be able to conquer demon kings and fight against Dao Embryos, were completely overwhelmed by Wu Tian's monstrous head-on attack and fell into an absolute disadvantage in just one exchange.

Amidst the swirling flames and smoke, Wu Tian's towering, crimson figure, hundreds of feet tall, slowly straightened. His body shimmered with light, and his icy gaze swept over the wreckage and wailing of the guards, locking onto Lu Jiuchuan standing behind him.

The only figure still standing in front, clad in golden robes, was Lu Jiuchuan.

Lu Jiuchuan stood there, holding his halberd, his face so dark it was almost dripping with water, his eyes filled with a mixture of shock and rage.

He never expected that this suddenly appearing beast would be so powerful, even the Heavenly Fire Formation formed by the Twelve Guards was defeated by it in the most brute force.

"What...what a beast!" Lu Jiuchuan squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth, the dark red flames on his halberd flickering wildly, radiating a dangerous aura.

“You guys block it for me. I’m going to the clan to get reinforcements right now. Once the ancestor arrives, it will only have one way out: death.”

He roared fiercely, but his hand holding the halberd trembled slightly. This ferocious beast was too terrifying; he simply couldn't handle it.

Even the combined forces of the Twelve Capital Guards were no match for him; if he were to engage in direct combat, he would only face certain death.

and so……

escape!
Must escape!
Lu Jiuchuan gritted his teeth and suddenly hurled the halberd at Wu Tian. The halberd transformed into a streak of crimson light, moving with lightning speed.

At the same time, he turned around, burned his magic power, and used a secret technique to transform into a streak of crimson fire, frantically fleeing towards the outside of the mountain city. His speed soared to the extreme, leaving a crimson trail in the air.

The twelve guards he abandoned turned ashen-faced.

Wu Tian's gaze swept over the Twelve Capital Guards, and then, the light of the sky distorted, and the sound of a sword ringing out echoed in the void.

hum!hum!hum!
It wasn't a single flash of light, but... twelve.

Twelve invisible sword lights slashed out from the void. These sword lights were formless and intangible, formed from the essence of the sun and moon, and hidden within the light.

Wherever the sunlight and moonlight reach, the blade arrives instantly, swift as the light of day, severing everything in its path.

"Watch out!" Lu Chongshan sensed the danger and shouted sharply, his voice filled with fear.

However, it was too late.

The blade flashed too fast, too eerily, as if it were born directly from the light, leaving no trace and making no sound.

Puff puff! Puff puff!
Twelve soft sounds rang out almost simultaneously, the sounds subtle yet like the whispers of death. Among the twelve guards, five had blood splattered from their necks, the blood spraying out for over ten feet; three had their chests pierced, their hearts shattered; and four had their arms severed at the root, the severed limbs falling to the ground, blood gushing forth.

Five people died on the spot, three were seriously injured, and four were slightly injured.

"How is this possible?!" Lu Chongshan's face drained of color. Although he barely escaped with his life, he had also lost an arm.

He never expected that this ferocious beast, besides its terrifying flames and body, would possess such unbelievable methods of killing.

What kind of monster is this? !
Wu Tian gave him no time to think; with a thought, the invisible blade flashed again.

hum!
A thin line appeared on the neck of a severely wounded guard, his head flew off, and terror remained in his eyes.

Some people tried to escape and turned to run away.

Wu Tian didn't even chase after him; his gaze simply sharpened.

The sunlight condensed, transforming into a blazing blade of light that descended from the sky like divine punishment.

puff!
The man was cleaved in two from head to toe by the blade, his body falling to either side, his internal organs spilling onto the ground.

The third person, the fourth person...

The Sun and Moon Heavenly Blades crisscrossed, their light forming a net.

Every blade flash was precise and deadly, either beheading, piercing the heart, or severing at the waist.

The blade flashed so fast it was invisible; all that could be seen was the cultivator suddenly freeze, then his body split open, and blood spurted out.

Like a tiger among sheep, it crushes everything in its path.

The twelve guards were all dead in the blink of an eye, leaving only Lu Chongshan with a pale face and trembling body.

His eyes were bloodshot, and with a roar, he charged at Wu Tian with his halberd.

He had already cultivated the True Explanation of the Heavenly Blazing Fire to the peak of the eighth level. At this moment, he unleashed his full power, and the flames around his body surged. The flames at the tip of his halberd transformed into a crimson dragon, ten zhang long, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced. The dragon was lifelike, with distinct scales and armor, radiating terrifying high temperatures.

Wu Tian turned around and looked at Lu Chongshan.

The image of the rushing dragon was reflected in its dark pupils.

Then, a beam of light condensed into an invisible blade.

That invisible heavenly blade was only three feet long, yet it was refined to the extreme.

Where the blade flashed, a black crack was cut through the air, a crack that could not heal for a long time, as if space itself had been cleaved open.

The blade clashed with the dragon.

There was no loud bang, no explosion.

The dragon, like ice and snow meeting the rising sun, melted away silently, as if a phantom had vanished.

The blade flashed undiminished, slashing towards Lu Chongshan with lightning speed.

Lu Chongshan's pupils shrank suddenly as he desperately parried with his halberd, which was forged from strange iron and engraved with incantations.

clang!
The sound of metal clashing resounded throughout the heavens and earth, a sound so piercing it was deafening.

The halberd in Lu Chongshan's hand snapped in two with a sharp sound, the break as smooth as a mirror. A blade flashed across his chest, its edge incredibly sharp, capable of cutting through gold and jade.

puff! !

Blood spurted out like a fountain.

Lu Chongshan looked down at the deep, bone-revealing wound on his chest. The wound stretched from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, almost cutting him open, and his internal organs were vaguely visible.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs, fell backward, and died, his eyes still filled with disbelief.

The cultivator at the eighth level of the Heavenly Blazing Fire True Understanding was killed with a single strike.

The remaining Lu family cultivators and mortals who were still alive were completely devastated.

"Run!"

"The Demon King! This is the Demon King!"

Wu Tian did not chase after them. His Thousand-Mile Eyes talent locked onto Lu Jiuchuan's aura, which was as clear as a torch in the dark night.

He watched Lu Jiuchuan's fleeing figure, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

escape?
Where can you escape to?

He looked up at the sky and let out a long howl.

The roar was like thunder, rolling and spreading, shaking the mountain city. The roar contained endless ferocity.

The seed of the Sun and Moon Heavenly Wheel divine power within his body rotated slightly, and the blessing from the Sun Wheel gradually dissipated, replaced by a bright moon hanging in the sky, blessing him.

With the Moon Wheel protecting him, his speed and recovery ability skyrocketed.

Then, Wu Tian made a move.

One step forward covers a hundred miles.

His hundred-foot-tall body moved with the speed of lightning.

The mountain city rapidly shrank behind him, and the earth receded beneath his feet. With each step he took, the earth shook and left behind massive, burning craters, some several meters deep, churning with lava.

……

Lu Jiuchuan fled frantically.

He burned his magic power, reaching the extreme speed, transforming into a streak of crimson light that pierced the sky.

He dared not look back, and could only fly forward desperately, with only one thought in his mind: escape! Escape as far as possible.

Three hundred li, five hundred li, eight hundred li...

Just when he thought he had escaped, he heard heavy footsteps behind him.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Every step felt like it was pounding on his heart; the sound of his footsteps was like the drumbeats of death.

Lu Jiuchuan turned around in shock.

On the horizon, a colossal beast, hundreds of feet tall, was striding after them.

Each step the giant beast took covered a distance of hundreds of miles, moving at a terrifying speed, like a moving mountain range.

The most terrifying thing was those eyes, like a compass woven from countless incantations, slowly turning and locking onto him, eerie and intimidating.

"How is this possible?!" Lu Jiuchuan was terrified, his voice hoarse.

He tried desperately to accelerate, but the magical power burning within him was almost exhausted, and his speed began to decrease, causing the crimson light to gradually dim.

Wu Tian, ​​however, did not decrease in speed but increased it.

The rotation of the sun and moon, with the moon wheel enhancing the speed, and the all-seeing eye locking onto the target, made Lu Jiuchuan seem like prey being tracked.

Six hundred li, seven hundred li, eight hundred li...

The distance is constantly shrinking.

In just a dozen breaths, Wu Tian had caught up to Lu Jiuchuan, covering ten miles behind.

Lu Jiuchuan was in despair.

He stopped abruptly, turned around, his face contorted like a demon, his voice hoarse: "Beast! You really want to wipe us all out?!"

"My Lu family ancestor is a Nascent Soul True Person, and he is already on his way. If you are..."

Wu Tian knew he was right; the Jade Sun Ancestor was indeed on his way, and his Thousand-Mile Eyes could already detect the streak of light rushing towards them from afar.

"So much nonsense!"

Before he could finish speaking, Wu Tian raised his giant claw and slammed it down.

The gigantic claw, like a mountain pressing down, blotted out the sky, casting a shadow over Lu Jiuchuan. (End of Chapter)
