Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

"Xiao Fang, have you been waiting long? Aren't you angry that I'm late?"

"Not at all. I'm more than grateful to you for coming to help, how could I possibly blame you?"

Hinata Hoshino looked up at the sun. Having lived in this era for so long, he could probably tell from the sun that it was exactly twelve o'clock.

"Alright, you all better stay away, lest I accidentally hurt you later."

Hyuga Hoshino unleashed Susanoo, but his Susanoo was no longer in the form of an armored giant as it had been before; instead, it resembled the form of the True Martial Emperor.

Aside from lacking the tortoise and snake generals, its appearance is extremely similar, except it is covered with a layer of soft armor made of Qilin scales.

Susanoo began forming hand seals in sync with Hyuga Hoshino's movements.

As the last print was coming to an end, Mao Xiaofang suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called out.

"Senior brother, please show mercy. Just burn this tomb, don't damage the grass around it."

Hinata Hoshino shrugged, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, which was taken as an agreement.

"Fire Escape·The great fire is extinguished."

Large swathes of fire surged toward the location of the Heavenly Crab Bureau. Even though Mao Xiaofang was quite far from the entrance, she could feel the waves of heat hitting her face.

Seeing such a grand scene, he felt a pang of envy. The officer surnamed Li had detained the officer surnamed Chen and was leading a large number of soldiers to surround the area.

Because of him, he had also heard about Mao Xiaofang's affairs and was worried that he would come and burn down the tomb and destroy the treasures, since in his eyes these treasures already belonged to them.

Unfortunately, when he arrived, he only saw Hinata Hoshino unleashing his power, unleashing a massive sea of ​​fire upon the area.

The sea of ​​fire made him feel waves of heat, and he couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.

He used to be an atheist, but after seeing this, he began to believe in the existence of miracles. Otherwise, it would be really hard to explain such a grand scene. It couldn't possibly be a magic trick, could it? He could feel the terrifyingly high heat.

The tomb door melted instantly, startling Mao Xiaofang, who was surprised because it was a stone door.

Yang Release Chakra, empowered.

Scorching Release Chakra, empowered.

The temperature was even higher, the soil became magmatic, and the celestial crab formation was broken.

The old witch sensed the intense, yang energy above, shook the magic lamp, and the genie appeared.

"Genius, I command you to extinguish this fire."

"As ordered."

The genie sprang from the ground, opened his mouth, and swallowed a large ball of flame. A moment later, the genie felt a burning pain in his stomach.

This startled the genie, who was formless and intangible, and was the embodiment of the lamplight. Logically, the flame was his sustenance, so how could it possibly cause him discomfort?

He didn't realize that he was overeating and couldn't digest it. It was also a joke that, as a genie for over two hundred years, he had forgotten what it felt like to be a human.

The genie hurriedly stopped eating and noticed that the flame in front of him had acquired other auras: pure yang qi and strong wind qi.

The genie waved his fan, and an endless gale rose from the ground. Since it couldn't be eaten, he might as well blow it away.

Hinata Hoshino's Reincarnation Eyes saw the genie's intention, and he took a wisp of Samadhi Wind and added it to the fire. As the wind rose, it overwhelmed the genie's wind.

Cixi noticed what was happening on the ground; the genie had not solved the fire as she had expected.

The ancients referred to the emperor as the "Nine-Five Supreme," because there are fourteen dragon veins in the world: the nine mountain dragon veins of the Five Sacred Mountains (Tianshan, Taihang, Kunlun, and Emei) and the five water dragon veins of the Yellow River, Huai River, Heilongjiang River, Yangtze River, and Pearl River.

Therefore, after transforming into a zombie, the old witch gained a certain ability to control the water veins. With a slap on the golden throne, yin energy and water energy mixed together, drawing upon the remaining dragon energy.

"Crash"

Dark clouds gathered, strong winds blew, and black thunder accompanied the heavy rain that began to fall over the Crab constellation.

Hinata Hoshino looked up at the sky. Black lightning? Shadow lightning? This old hag is not simple.

Despite localized rainfall, the fire remained raging, but it was successfully contained.

Susanoo withdrew its hand seals, and Hyuga Hoshino waved his hands, lightning coiling around them.

"Sizzle, sizzle"

Susanoo made the same move, raising its fists to the sky, and endless lightning surged into the dark clouds. The old hag's expression changed, and she felt that the yin lightning she had unleashed was dispelled by the heavenly lightning.

"Lightning Thunder Fist - Kirin".

The Thunderous Qilin emerged from the clouds and charged straight toward the tomb entrance. Enveloped in flames, the Thunderous Qilin unleashed a torrent of lightning and fire, striking the Heavenly Crab Formation with devastating force.

Everyone present heard the sound of porcelain breaking.

"Crackling"

Upon seeing that the Heavenly Crab Formation had been broken, Mao Xiaofang knew that the game was now in the bag.

"Master, Master, can you also use this kind of magic?"

"Of course, as long as you study hard, you will be able to achieve that one day too."

Mao Xiaofang, without batting an eye, uttered words that even he couldn't believe. Fire was fine; at worst, they could just pour gasoline on it.

He recognized the Thunder Fist; Lin Fengjiao had told him about it. It was a secret technique passed down only by the Maoshan ancestral temple, the Lightning Thunder Fist, which required a high level of talent.

Chapter 193 The Cicada Pearl

Mao Xiaofang remembered that Lin Fengjiao seemed to have said that in Maoshan, only the eldest brother Shi Jian and the junior brother Shi Xing of their generation had learned it, and even in the older generation, only one of the Taoist priests knew it.

Among them, only the master of the Taoist priest's generation knows it, as if it is a single transmission from generation to generation. Only one person in each generation can learn it, and this person must be the next leader of the sect. Hyuga Hoshino is an exception.

Of course, among them, the Taoist priest felt that Shi Jian was the unexpected one. After all, in his heart, Hyuga Hoshino was the future leader, not Shi Jian.

As the Thunderfire Qilin approached, the old witch raised her magic lamp to block it from the front, with the Phoenix Seal behind it, and all the remaining zombies, including the great general, as the final barrier.

The genie had no choice. He used his fan, the pages of his book, and his spiritual fire as a shield. He knew that whether he stuck his neck out or not, he would still be killed. So he decided to make one last desperate attempt.

The moment the Thunderfire Qilin made contact, the fan was burned, the pages of the book were scorched by lightning, and the spiritual fire was devoured. Finally, it was the turn of the Genie. Facing the overwhelming power of heaven, the Genie's spirit could not even last a minute. In the last moment, the Genie felt liberation.

He was, after all, a scholar with integrity, and he had always been treated like a servant. He didn't want to be treated like that, but he had no choice.

The magic lamp shattered immediately after the genie died, serving no defensive purpose whatsoever.

The old hag cursed under her breath, thinking herself useless, and pinned her hopes on the two barriers in front of her. The Phoenix Seal lit up with golden light, and a golden phoenix phantom appeared, crying out to the sky.

The golden phoenix pounced on the Qilin, and the two were locked in a stalemate.

"Hahaha, this mere Thunderfire Qilin dares to contend with my Phoenix Seal?"

Hyuga Hoshino drew the Crimson Sky Sword, swung it forward, and the sword of imperial destiny intercepted the fortune of the mortal world, transforming it into a sword light that shattered the golden phoenix.

Unfortunately, the attack lacked follow-up power. The sword light dissipated, but the Thunderfire Qilin remained. Zombies, being evil creatures, were reduced to dust under the overwhelming power of heaven and the scorching Yang Qi, offering no resistance whatsoever.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

The zombie's true form was revealed, its face ferocious and terrifying, with fangs growing out, nails growing wildly, and its body surrounded by yin energy, along with wisps of water vapor and an imperceptible dragon aura.

"Is this the aura of the Zombie King?"

Hinata Hoshino glanced at Mao Xiaofang. This guy's a zombie king?

However, it's understandable. Here, "Zombie King" refers to the leader of a group of zombies, meaning she is the queen of this group of zombies.

There is also a zombie king in Tengteng Town. Even Xuan Kui and the royal zombie with residual dragon energy that appeared later are considered zombie kings, but that's too much of a stretch.

In the future, when Zhang Zhiwei is 115 years old, it will be as simple as slapping him.

"It was you who forced me into this situation. I didn't want to show this side of myself. You deserve to die!"

The old witch roared, relying on her physical strength and water energy to prepare to withstand the Thunderfire Qilin.

"boom!"

A cloud of dust billowed up, and Hyuga Hoshino blew, a gust of wind dispersing the dust, revealing the old hag back in human form, though her face was now incredibly aged. Trembling, she picked up a fragment of a bronze mirror beside her, looked at herself, and the old hag utterly collapsed.

"No, no, no, I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled! Ah!"

As the smoke cleared, the midday sun shone down. Even if the old witch were to die, she would have preferred to be killed by someone. But she never expected to die in the sunlight.

Mao Xiaofang sighed softly. He hadn't expected the old witch to be so difficult to deal with. However, he had truly seen something new today.

Hyuga Hoshino waved his hand, channeling pure Yang energy to draw in sunlight and Yang fire, scorching the spot and ensuring everything was burned to ashes. Hyuga Hoshino nodded, and it was over.

"Let's go, Xiao Fang."

The officer surnamed Li wanted to say something, but under Hinata Hoshino's gaze, he trembled and said nothing.

Hinata Hoshino's aura was terrifying, beyond what he could withstand, even for someone as seasoned as him.

Back at Fuxi Hall, she encountered Black Rose. She had just discovered the wonderful use of the Cicada Pearl—beauty and skincare—and was naturally unwilling to hand it over. However, she was also afraid that the old witch would send a zombie to ask her for it, so she was also preparing to run away.

However, before running away, she and Xiaoxiami had a hearty meal, and each of them took one of the chickens that Mao Xiaofang usually raised.

When Mao Xiaofang saw that two chickens were missing, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Their Fuxi Hall emphasized serving the people and helping the world, so whether it was helping people with their affairs or practicing medicine, they always charged close to cost price.

Now that we've lost two chickens, it's not just a matter of not being able to eat meat for a while; more importantly, we'll be out of eggs.

Hinata Hoshino tossed the Higurashi Jewel and caught it. To be honest, from the outside, this thing was not outstanding at all, and its quality was not even as good as a glass marble.

Hinata Hoshino probed with his primordial spirit and found that this thing was actually born from the water veins and contained a trace of the origin of the five lakes and four seas.

"Good stuff!" Hinata Hoshino threw it directly into his mouth, swallowing it without even chewing.

The Qilin appeared in his mind's eye, but this time, it quietly watched Hyuga Hoshino. Hyuga Hoshino felt that it was telling him not to eat things indiscriminately.

"Pide next time."

The Qilin nodded, absorbing the water element from the Cold Cicada Pearl. The progress bar for the Five Elements Qilin Bloodline increased by 10%, reaching 40%. It seems that it still needs a portion of the Yellow Spring Water Origin to complete the Water Element.

Hinata Hoshino coughed, spitting out the Higurashi Pearl. Outwardly, it appeared unchanged, but Hinata Hoshino sensed that the water elemental power had been completely absorbed; it was now merely a pearl with some beauty and skin-nourishing effects.

Hinata Hoshino stroked his chin, thinking that this stuff might be useful for refining a youth-preserving pill; he'd go back and give it a try.

Hinata Hoshino left Fuxi Hall to chat with the Blood Demon, an old villain.

He appeared in The Legend of Shushan, and he was also in The Living Buddha Jigong...

It seems that wherever villains are mentioned, this person always has a place.

Standing before the Buddha statue, which appeared to be the embodiment of demons and monsters, Hinata Hoshino felt that the craftsmanship of the statue was questionable and extremely poor.

With the Crimson Sky Sword thrown out, the aura of humanity enveloped it, and Hyuga Hoshino confidently took out the Golden Cores. Four Golden Cores radiating golden light appeared in Hyuga Hoshino's hand.

Upon closer inspection, it appears to be authentic Taoist Qi. Why is it called Golden Elixir Relic? What's the connection?
