Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

The black fog envelops the sky, blocking out the sun!

The ninth-tier Fog Spirit indeed is extraordinary. With just one move, it made the many human geniuses present feel an intense sense of oppression, as if a demonic cloud loomed over the city, a black mass where no end could be seen.

In fact, it’s certain that ninth-tier Strange Spirits cannot invoke Sky Power. But it’s precisely due to this Fog Spirit’s unique origin that it can manipulate these smoke energies, making them obey its command effortlessly.

No one knows the true power of these smog, nor if it contains poison, or once inside, vision becomes impaired, leading the low-level ninth-tier Strange Spirit to launch attacks.

However, the descending smoke is endless, like cotton, soft and immune to force. Once enveloped, escaping becomes difficult.

”Yun Xiao, Bai Wushuang, let’s put internal conflicts aside for now and deal with this beast!”

At this moment, Ye Ku’s loud voice suddenly echoed through the oppressive fog, causing Yun Xiao and Bai Wushuang to tense up, then nod slowly without much thought.

Neither Bai Wushuang nor Yun Xiao believed they could individually defeat the ninth-tier Strange Spirit. Allowing it to destroy them one by one would truly mean the end.

Joining forces against the ninth-tier Strange Spirit might not assure great success, but it’s a bigger chance compared to fighting alone. As for the spoils of victory, each would depend on their own skills.

The major objective of those present is that low-level ninth-tier Strange Spirit. Once it begins its rampage, none of the Lianyun Mountain geniuses will leave Treasure Mountain alive.

Perhaps this is a unique test. Though Qian Sanyuan and others knew of the low-level ninth-tier Strange Spirit on Treasure Mountain, they couldn’t intervene, and life-or-death battles might significantly sharpen each person’s realm.

With Ye Ku’s suggestion, Yun Xiao and Bai Wushuang acted swiftly. From three directions, they closed in on the massive Fog Spirit, while the sky’s smog finally pressed down, engulfing Si Mo, Mo Qing, and Liu Hanyi.

Fortunately, the smog here and at the mountain’s waist and base didn’t entirely block vision. Visibility was still about one to two meters, allowing for mutual assistance.

Boom!

Ye Ku, being the coalition leader, naturally moved faster. His right hand flicked lightly, sending a streak of green light shooting towards the massive Fog Spirit, even corroding the air in its path.

”This poison seems quite formidable!”

Witnessing this, Bai Wushuang’s eyes sharpened. He’s always viewed Ye Ku as his greatest rival on Lianyun Mountain, so he’s studied Ye Ku’s methods extensively. Yet, this poisonous technique was unfamiliar, causing Bai Wushuang to grow vigilant.

Facing the low-level ninth-tier Strange Spirit, Ye Ku naturally used his strongest technique. This poison was actually prepared for the annual competition against Bai Wushuang, not expecting to use it here first.

However, this unrivaled Earth Rank middle-level poison, while seemingly hitting the low-level ninth-tier Fog Spirit, quickly disappeared without a trace, as if it had no effect at all.

”Brother Ye Ku, your trick seems useless!”

Though fighting alongside each other, Bai Wushuang couldn’t resist sarcastically taunting Ye Ku when his poison proved ineffective.

Nonetheless, Bai Wushuang diligently conjured a massive Meridian Qi Palm Seal before him, fiercely striking toward the Fog Spirit.

Whoosh, whoosh...

The Fog Spirit, seemingly indifferent to Bai Wushuang’s Meridian Qi attack, glanced lightly and conjured a massive fog palm seal to meet Bai Wushuang’s attack.

Boom!

The two massive palms collided, and Bai Wushuang’s face changed dramatically. His Earth Rank middle-level Meridian Qi Palm Seal lasted less than a moment before it was shattered by the Fog Spirit’s massive palm.

Moreover, even after dispersing Bai Wushuang’s Meridian Qi Palm Seal, the Fog Spirit’s palm didn’t slow, continuing toward the top genius of Heavenly Hospital with stunning power!

Feeling the power in the Fog Spirit’s palm and knowing his Meridian Qi Palm Seal was nowhere near strong enough to withstand, Bai Wushuang realized he couldn’t take the hit head-on, fearing even a minor injury could be disastrous.

At this moment, Bai Wushuang abandoned any pretense, focused on survival alone, rolling to the ground desperately avoiding the Fog Spirit’s palm. Although it was awkward, it spared him the blow, leaving him standing with a deeply sullen expression.

”Yun Xiao, are you just going to watch?”

Not daring to provoke that Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit any further, Bai Wushuang immediately shouted angrily when he saw a certain rough-clad figure standing motionless. In the end, he never had any good feelings toward Yun Xiao.

Whoosh!

However, just as Bai Wushuang’s shout rang out, a sound of wind-breaking came unexpectedly from behind the Fog Spirit. Then, Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang clearly saw that the rough-clad youth had somehow maneuvered behind the Fog Spirit, the blindingly fierce black light slashing downward.

”Again, it’s an afterimage!”

At this point, both Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang understood that Yun Xiao had once more performed that ultimate-speed afterimage technique, leaving a convincing fake body at the original place, while his true self launched a fatal attack on the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit.

The precision and unexpected nature of Yun Xiao’s move were indisputable, and even the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit was deceived by his shadow clone. Although this was a Strange Spirit capable of speech, its Spiritual Wisdom couldn’t possibly compare to human geniuses like Bai Wushuang and Ye Ku.

Swish!

The black light flashed downward, and Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang clearly witnessed the extraordinarily sharp Wooden Sword slicing through the right shoulder of the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit and swiftly exiting from the left waist, its extraordinary speed leaving them in awe.

If it were a human cultivator, being slashed from the right shoulder down to the left waist would likely result in instant bifurcation, intestines spilling onto the ground, with no chance of survival.

Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang instinctively showed a moment of gleeful anticipation on their faces, but their joy quickly froze.

Swish swish swish...

Having sliced through the Fog Spirit with the Dragon Taming Sword, Yun Xiao did not pause. His wrist moved repeatedly, slashing a series of angry strikes, directly dividing the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit into several pieces. His expression, however, was markedly different from that of Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang.

Although the Dragon Taming Sword was exceptionally sharp, the series of precise strikes Yun Xiao unexpectedly executed didn’t have the imagined effect, given that he faced a special Foggy Strange Spirit. The sword’s sharpness wouldn’t work as hoped.

As expected by Yun Xiao, even though the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit was sliced into pieces at this moment, those severed fog body segments soon writhed into several streams of mist, converging in another location, quickly reassembling into a new Fog Spirit body.

”Can they not die?”

Beside him, Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang had long been stupefied. They had just witnessed Yun Xiao’s consecutive strikes slicing through the Fog Spirit’s body, yet they hadn’t expected the Mist Spirit to be of the undying body, showing that such physical attacks weren’t very effective.

The Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit had even less thought to spare on this. Although it regrouped its body, being slightly outdone by a Middle Stage Origin Seeking Realm human earlier had roused its furious anger.

Vein Demons have their pride; Strange Spirits equally have their pride. In the eyes of this Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit, capable of defeating same-level Vein Demons, a Middle Stage human cultivator from the Origin Seeking Realm is nothing more than an ant.

But now, this human boy, likened to ants, managed to take a bite out of him, channeling all of the subconscious pride of the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit, making it seethe with rage.

Hoo... Hoo... Hoo...

The Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit waved its arms, causing the fog covering the top of Treasure Mountain to suddenly condense, drawing out a giant foggy palm from three directions, seemingly aiming to clasp Yun Xiao, Ye Ku, and Bai Wushuang all together.

”Be careful!”

Ye Ku shouted loudly in warning, yet the other two were no slower, each deploying their ultimate techniques to evade the attacks from the giant foggy palms.

A heated battle was underway at the top of Treasure Mountain. The three geniuses joined forces to resist the Ninth Rank low-level Foggy Strange Spirit. Though they were on the losing end, they were not yet defeated entirely. As time moved on, perhaps there would be unforeseen twists.

”This won’t do!”

Yun Xiao maneuvered away, narrowly evading a powerful foggy palm, gasping heavily, a glint of determination flashing in his eyes. Following this, his aura grew chaotic.

”Is this... Ancestor Vein Power?”

Sensing the unique power emanating from Yun Xiao, Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang immediately knew the youth was channeling his Ancestor Vein Power. Prompted by the earlier, their aura equally shifted in a unique way.

As top talents of the two sects at Lianyun Mountain, Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang definitely possess their Ancestor Vein power, not just one. At this moment, they too wouldn’t hold back any longer.

Only as Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang activated their Ancestor Vein Power, advancing their Meridian Qi Cultivation a step beyond the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm, did they suddenly sense Yun Xiao’s aura, rendering them stunned.
