Chapter 173 Zhu Kui usurps the nest, Su Wuchen breaks through in the midst of battle

Whoohoo!

In an instant, a fierce wind arose!

Especially with the flapping of this strange bird's wings, the oncoming gale actually contained some wind blades.

This situation made Su Wuchen raise his eyebrows. Why did it feel like he was following the same pattern as that giant tortoise?

Could they be from the same school?

just.

Su Wuchen couldn't understand why, if these demonic beasts were sent by the person secretly monitoring him, they weren't afraid that he would unleash his full power and kill them.

More importantly, why would these monsters obey his orders so readily?

"This is the Azure Phoenix Firebird; its wings are its most powerful weapon."

While the Heavenly Prison Beast carried Su Wuchen away from the Azure Phoenix Firebird's attacks, it kept explaining to Su Wuchen, "It possesses an extremely powerful flame called Crimson Sun. Once someone is touched by this strange flame, they could be burned to death on the spot!"

"Even a second-rank Venerable would be severely injured, if not killed, if touched by this flame!"

Flames, crimson sun?

Su Wuchen gripped his spear tightly. "Then we'll prevent him from ever using it!"

After saying that, Su Wuchen pushed off hard with both feet on the back of the Heavenly Prison Beast, and with the help of the Heavenly Prison Beast's strength, he rushed towards the Azure Phoenix Firebird at an extremely fast speed.

The spear in his hand was like an impenetrable net, blocking all the flying wind blades.

At the same time.

The Heavenly Prison Beast also transformed into a streak of light, suddenly appearing beside the Azure Phoenix Firebird. It opened its blood-red maw and bit down on the Azure Phoenix Firebird's wing.

Once the Azure Firebird's wing is successfully torn off, that feathered beast will lose its arrogance.

However, what the Heavenly Prison Beast did not expect was that just as its beak was about to bite the Azure Phoenix Firebird's wing, a scorching aura suddenly erupted from the Azure Phoenix Firebird's body.

The Heavenly Prison Beast's expression changed instantly, and it hurriedly withdrew and retreated.

no doubt.

The Azure Phoenix Firebird unleashed its strongest killing move, Crimson Sun.

Although the Heavenly Prison Beast reacted quickly and retreated to create distance, the fur on its mouth was burned away by the intense heat.

If there were even a single spark, his body would be completely ignited.

"Water dragon!"

Su Wuchen held the gun in his right hand and made a hand seal with his left.

For an instant.

The large area that had just been dried out by the intense heat of the Azure Firebird's body now had a touch of moisture.

It's water vapor.

Under Su Wuchen's control, a large amount of water vapor transformed into a water dragon tens of meters long, rushing towards the Azure Firebird.

However, the high temperature on the Azure Firebird instantly ignited into flames.

The water dragon rushing towards the Azure Phoenix Firebird was constantly evaporated by the intense heat of the flames as it got closer to the bird.

By the time it reached the Azure Firebird, the water dragon, which was tens of meters long, had turned into thick white steam.

This flame is indeed very strange.

Su Wuchen was secretly amazed, but his hands did not stop moving.

With only thirty seconds left before the Moonlit Dragon Spear reached its maximum amplification limit, Su Wuchen unleashed his killing move once again.

"Let's see if your flames are more powerful, or if my marksmanship and artistry are superior!"

"A phoenix rising from the ashes!"

The eighth move of the Nine Spears of the Startling Beauty: The Phoenix Returns When the Spear Turns to Ashes!

The spear instantly burst into colorless flames, and within those flames, the Bright Moon Dragon Spear shattered into pieces. The ashes scattered in the air, transforming into nine crimson fire phoenixes that continuously circled and danced around Su Wuchen.

Nine phoenixes cried out and simultaneously struck Su Wuchen's chest. A brand-new blood-red spear was slowly drawn from his heart. As he held the new spear in his hand, a picture of nine phoenixes reborn appeared behind him!

Nine phoenixes rose from the ashes and circled a blazing sun!

Su Wuchen's flaming spear pierced through the layers of flames surrounding the Azure Phoenix Firebird, striking its heart.

"No----"

"impossible!"

"How do you, a human cultivator, possess such an astonishing secret technique?"

'

The Azure Phoenix Firebird was in pain, but also in a state of utter shock.

This is a unique rebirth of the Phoenix Clan. How could Su Wuchen, a human cultivator, achieve this?

That's incredible!

Even more incredibly, after the spear pierced his heart, it began to absorb the flames within his body on a large scale.

"Damn it, damn it!"

"My cultivation, my Crimson Sun!"

The Azure Phoenix Firebird shrieked, trying to back away, but found Su Wuchen holding a spear, following him.

No matter how hard he flapped his wings, he could not escape.

Su Wuchen was also behaving very strangely at this moment.

because.

It wasn't that he was controlling the Bright Moon Illuminating Dragon Spear, but rather that the Bright Moon Illuminating Dragon Spear was controlling him!

He was unable to retrieve the Bright Moon Dragon Spear from the body of the Azure Phoenix Firebird!

Turtle.

Is this some kind of ghost?

Su Wuchen was filled with doubt and had no choice but to put down his spear.

And so, the Azure Phoenix finally broke free from Su Wuchen's grasp, but little did it know that Su Wuchen had also broken free from its restraints.

With the Moonlit Dragon Spear embedded in its body, the Azure Phoenix Firebird flapped its wings and fled in panic.

"Holy crap?"

"You just threw away your weapon like that?"

The Heavenly Prison Beast arrived in front of Su Wuchen with a bewildered expression, looking in the direction where the Azure Phoenix Firebird had left.

Su Wuchen glanced sideways and said, "The Azure Phoenix Firebird is too fast. If I don't let go, it might kill me."

Birds inherently possess an absolute speed advantage, especially the Azure Phoenix Firebird, a second-grade Venerable Realm bird, which is not only extremely fast but also possesses considerable combat power.

The only thing it lacks is defense.

If the Azure Phoenix Firebird's defense were even slightly higher, he wouldn't have been able to easily pierce its heart.

But now—

Although he managed to drive away the Azure Phoenix Firebird, he also lost his weapon in the process.

Instead of worrying about that spear, let's think about how we can get out of our current predicament.

Su Wuchen glanced around and his chrysanthemum suddenly tightened.

While they were entangled with the Azure Phoenix Firebird, the demonic beasts had already caught up!

"A human, a descendant of Shadow Candle, dares to run rampant in the Valley of Ten Thousand Cultivators! He truly has no regard for his own life!"

"Kill them!"

"I'm going to eat him!!"

As the powerful demons stared at Su Wuchen and his companion, intending to devour their bodies, a deep roar sounded behind them.

Immediately following this was a violent earthquake.

All the demons turned around and saw a giant tortoise walking towards them with huge strides.

"A big turtle?"

"It's over."

Su Wuchen and the Heavenly Prison Beast both had grim expressions.

The giant tortoise's defensive capabilities are beyond doubt, and now with so many powerful demons added to the mix, their chances of escaping are practically impossible.

but.

To Su Wuchen and the others' surprise, after catching up, the giant tortoise raised its huge claws and smashed them down on a tiger.

Before the tiger could react, it was instantly crushed into mincemeat by a single stomp.

"Old tortoise, what are you doing?"

The sudden turn of events caught all the demons off guard.

Like them, the old tortoise was a powerful demon with a doomed future, but its defense was exceptionally strong, and its combat power was by no means weak.

He suddenly attacked, and before anyone could react, he had crushed the third-grade demon tiger to death.

And now they're going to attack them?!

"Of course, I'll kill you all!"

The old tortoise chuckled softly, then began to wreak havoc without restraint.

This scene completely stunned Su Wuchen and the Heavenly Prison Beast.

Everything is fine.

Why did the old tortoise rebel?

"wrong!"

"It's Zhu Kui!"

suddenly.

Su Wuchen noticed that the old tortoise's eyes were bloodshot, as if it had mutated, which reminded him of Zhu Kui's previous mutation.

Could it be that—

"Zhu Kui didn't stage an accident; instead, he transformed into a blood mist, entered the old tortoise's body, and took control of it?"

The Heavenly Prison Beast incredulously voiced Su Wuchen's inner speculation.

Su Wuchen nodded emphatically, "It seems that this is the only possibility right now."

"Isn't that incredible?"

The Heavenly Prison Beast exclaimed in disbelief, "So, does that mean Zhu Kui has directly become a Second-Rank Venerable?"

"this----"

Su Wuchen shook his head.

He couldn't be sure about that yet, but the experience points he had just gained confirmed that the old tortoise was indeed Zhu Kui!

"What do we do now?"

"Of course, kill them!"

Su Wuchen laughed loudly.

Zhu Kui, who was originally a hindrance, has now taken control of the old tortoise and become a Venerable with the combat power of a second-grade expert!

With them added in, they could definitely hold their own against these monsters!

"kill!"

The Heavenly Prison Beast licked its lips, its eyes filled with excitement.

He's already at the mid-stage of the third rank. If you give him some of the flesh and blood of a great demon, he might have a chance to break through to the Great Perfection of the third rank!

Therefore, at the same time Su Wuchen made his move, the Heavenly Prison Beast also decisively joined the battle.

He couldn't kill a second-rank demon before, but those demons below the second rank were no problem for him!

Especially with the help of that old turtle Zhu Kui, it becomes even simpler.

"A mutated cultivator—"

"It's like the result of swallowing an extraterrestrial monster."

Inside the cave.

The bald, burly man stroked his chin, watching curiously as the old tortoise wreaked havoc.

After being controlled by Zhu Kui, the old tortoise's combat power seemed to have increased by a level.

wrong!

-

The bald, burly man shook his head.

It wasn't that the old tortoise's fighting power suddenly increased by a level; rather, the old tortoise hadn't been using its full strength at all before!

After all, he was a great demon who had reached the second-grade Great Perfection. Even though his lifespan was about to reach its limit, his combat power was not to be underestimated.

The reason it didn't unleash its full combat power was because once it used all its strength to deal with Su Wuchen and the others, the old tortoise's lifespan would be over.

If the old tortoise hadn't possessed a trace of Xuanwu bloodline, it would have turned into ashes hundreds of years ago.

After figuring out the reasons, the bald, burly man became even more curious about Zhu Kui, to the point that his curiosity surpassed that for Su Wuchen and the Heavenly Prison Beast.

He now wanted to know how Zhu Kui would get out of the old turtle's body after he had entered and controlled it.

When Zhu Kui emerges from the old tortoise's body, what will that scene be like, and how much will his strength increase?

Whoosh.

A figure appeared inside the cave.

"Hey girl, what brings you here?"

The sudden appearance of the blood-red figure made the bald, burly man burst into laughter.

The woman in blood-stained clothes looked at the scene in the mirror and then said, "Such a commotion on your territory has alarmed more than just me."

The bald, burly man chuckled and said, "Didn't we run into something interesting?"

The woman in blood: "Old Turtle and the others are nearing the end of their lifespans, yet you're having them fight this person so fiercely. What exactly do you mean by that?"

"Of course we're giving them a chance."

The bald, burly man didn't care. "They're going to die anyway, so why not give it a try and see if we can break through at the last moment?"

"Excuse."

The woman in the blood-stained clothes shook her head, naturally not believing the bald man's fabricated story.

"You want to give them a chance to see if they're qualified to join us, right?"

The bald, burly man, having had his thoughts read by the woman in blood, didn't hide anything. "You're right."

"I previously thought this kid had a chance to become one of us, but you thought he was too weak. But look at him now."

"Although he only has the cultivation of the third-grade Great Perfection, his true combat strength is absolutely no less than that of any second-grade mid-stage Venerable."

"If he breaks through and reaches the second-grade Venerable realm, his combat power might increase dramatically!"

"At that time, whether we defend the pass or overcome it, it will be a fortunate thing for us."

At this moment, a disdainful voice rang out, "So, do you think he can hold the pass, or can he help us get through it?"

The bald, burly man looked up and saw a small, disproportionately small boy. "Why are you out here?"

The little boy said, "I'm tired."

The bald, burly man remained unfazed by the little boy's ramblings. "They didn't send any kings or generals this time, did they?"

The little boy said, "Even if there were kings and generals, so what? I could easily suppress them all."

Ha ha!

The bald, burly man smiled but didn't say anything more.

He was well aware of the little boy's strength, and even more so of the strength of those kings and generals!

If a king or general were to actually appear, the little boy might not be able to reach him alive.

"Is your old turtle going berserk?"

The little boy pointed to the scene on the screen and said, "Why are you beating up your men?"

"He's under control."

"what?"

"He has been controlled by a mutated evil cultivator."

The bald, burly man said with a smile, "I'm also curious now. How did that evil cultivator manage to control him, and how did he escape from the old tortoise's body?"

The little boy frowned: "He was assimilated by the Devouring Beast's crystal core?"

The bald, burly man nodded.

The little boy remained silent, a hint of curiosity on his face.

This was truly the first time he had ever seen such a heretical practitioner.

"He's about to break through!"

"Who?"

The two bald, burly men turned their heads to look at the screen.

In the scene, Su Wuchen, who was fighting with the demonic beast, suddenly withdrew from the battlefield. His aura changed drastically, indicating that he was about to break through.

"Breakthrough during battle?"

The little boy smiled and said, "It's actually kind of interesting."
