Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Damn it!”

Seeing the vines continuously attacking from the Strange Spirit’s body, Jia Tianshu’s face turned a bit grim. After barely dodging a few of the vines, one had unexpectedly wrapped around his left ankle, causing him to curse angrily.

The Wood Attribute Strange Spirit relied on this binding power of the vines, catching people off guard. Sometimes, even if you were prepared, you might still fall into its trap, just like Jia Tianshu at that moment.

As an elder of the Shenxiao Sect, he had already reached the late stage of the Earth Bending Realm, yet he was rendered helpless in the hands of the Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirit.

Seeing the first vine binding him, countless more followed, causing him to panic a bit.

Swish!

At this critical moment, a dark light flashed by, and Jia Tianshu suddenly felt his foot loosen. The vine wrapping around his left foot had been cut directly from the front by the dark light.

Swish, swish, swish!

Three more dark lights flashed by, slicing through the three vines extending toward Jia Tianshu. The cuts were smooth and neat, clearly made by a sharp weapon.

”It’s Yun Xiao’s Dragon Taming Sword!”

When Jia Tianshu saw a gray figure rushing towards the Wood Attribute Strange Spirit like a gust of wind, a light flashed in his mind. Even without seeing the gray figure clearly, he knew who had saved him at this critical moment.

It was Yun Xiao who had acted. After rescuing Wu Tong, he noticed that Jia Tianshu was also in a similar predicament, so he rushed over without any hesitation, resolving this deadly crisis for the elder of the Shenxiao Sect.

The Dragon Taming Sword was unstoppable, at least not something these Strange Spirits on the Tenglong Continent could contend with. In just a few moves, the Ninth Rank Advanced Wood Attribute Strange Spirit was chopped into a stick by the Dragon Taming Sword, looking somewhat comical.

Strictly speaking, even if the Wood Attribute Strange Spirit’s head were chopped off, it could grow back. After all, Strange Spirits are different from humans, and as long as their Spirit Crystal isn’t controlled, they are generally unkillable.

Unfortunately, the Wood Attribute Strange Spirit encountered Yun Xiao this time, a peerless demon who had fought countless battles with Strange Spirits over lifetimes. The experience in fighting Strange Spirits he had was unmatched even if you combined everyone on the Tenglong Continent.

Seeing the Wood Attribute Strange Spirit attempting to grow its limbs back, Yun Xiao acted decisively, slicing three times in a row, opening up its chest, and swiftly grabbing the Spirit Crystal glowing with a green light.

”Thank you!”

Watching the young man dispatch the Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirit with just a few moves, Jia Tianshu was stunned, expressing his gratitude, while the young man just nodded at him before darting off again.

At this moment, Yun Xiao was like a firefighter or a versatile piece atop the city wall, moving wherever needed. In his quick movements, he had already slain over a dozen Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirits.

With such achievements, the pressure on the human side was greatly alleviated, but this dazzling performance eventually caught the attention of some strong entities among the Strange Spirits.

Ninth Rank Strange Spirits, though unable to speak human language, had intelligence almost equal to ordinary humans. How could they not notice this human boy in gray with such an astounding performance?

”Hmm?”

After Yun Xiao killed another Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirit, he noticed the surroundings becoming strangely quiet. When he looked up, a cold gleam appeared in his eyes.

The battlefield had suddenly become empty, with human cultivators isolated outside, and what emerged were ten Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirits.

Yun Xiao could sense clearly that none of these Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirits surrounding him was much weaker than the Strange Spirit Leader in Taikang City.

Moreover, the aura of these ten Strange Spirits varied, some as fierce as fire, some as heavy as mountains, others as light as the wind, or sharp like swords, each distinct from the other.

Apparently, the strong among the Strange Spirits realized the threat of this human boy, knowing that if he continued his killing spree, he could break them apart one by one, which would be extremely detrimental to the Strange Spirits.

”Tsk tsk, ten Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirits, it seems only Lord Yun Xiao would receive such attention?”

Watching the young man in crude clothes surrounded by ten Strange Spirits, many human cultivators sighed, but their tone held no great worry, as they now harbored a blind trust in the young man.

Since Yun Xiao alone attracted ten Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirits, the pressure on the human side greatly reduced. Experts like Wu Yingjiang, at the peak of the Earth Bending Realm, had leisure to observe the top-level battle over there.

This could be the final battle outside Moyun City. If Yun Xiao won, the path to Moyun City just ahead would be clear, and in a hurry, the Strange Spirits wouldn’t be able to organize much effective interception.

But if in the end Yun Xiao is defeated, the blow to the human side would be fatal, even more so than Yun Xiao’s earlier strategy of destroying the leader of the Alien Spirit Clan, with even clearer effects.

Because now, Yun Xiao has become the spiritual belief of the entire human side. It is precisely this belief that has given them the confidence to break out of Taikang City and advance towards Moyun City, which is occupied by alien spirits.

Once this belief collapses, the human side would crumble completely, and even the recaptured Guanshan, Lishui, and Taikang cities could very likely be seized by the alien spirits again.

At this moment, all eyes, including those of the alien spirits, are focused on the high-stakes battle where ten face one. Everyone knows that this is an extremely crucial battle.

And in the midst of the ten ninth-rank advanced alien spirits, Yun Xiao doesn’t show much tension on his face, not the least bit like someone trapped, and even seems to have a sense of relief.

To be honest, with Yun Xiao’s strength alone, saving one side can’t save the other. These are all elites of the Alien Spirit Clan. If he were to defeat them one by one, it would certainly take some effort.

Now that the ten alien spirit leaders have unanimously targeted him, it plays right into Yun Xiao’s hands, as it saves him a lot of trouble.

Alien spirits are very dependent on their leaders. These ten ninth-rank advanced alien spirits are undoubtedly the leaders of the many alien armies outside Moyun City. As long as these ten alien spirits are slain, the path to Moyun City will be unobstructed.

”Wow ya ya ya!”

One of the alien spirits seems to be the leader of this alliance. It’s also a wind attribute alien spirit. After making a sound of unknown meaning, its whole form instantly disappeared from its original place.

”Since you’re a wind attribute alien spirit, I’ll start with you!”

Feeling a certain invisible aura, a light smile appears on Yun Xiao’s face. He internally shouts, his body turning aside, suddenly pouncing on another earth attribute alien spirit.

In fact, Yun Xiao wants to repeat an old trick. With his power of soul, no matter how strange that wind attribute alien spirit is, it can’t escape his sensing. But his target at the moment is not the wind attribute alien spirit.

Yun Xiao already has experience dealing with such alien spirits. Moreover, his eighth wind attribute ancestor vein needs enhancement from such wind attributes. He intends for that wind attribute alien spirit to willingly become his nourishment.

This sudden turn by the young human allows the fast-moving wind attribute alien spirit to be delighted, not thinking of anything else. By the time it reveals itself, it has already delivered a hand blade strike to Yun Xiao’s back.

This was exactly the flaw Yun Xiao intentionally exposed. Seeing the wind attribute alien spirit fall for it, he can’t help but display a satisfied smile.

Whoosh... whoosh...

With the Ancient Dragon Taming Technique in motion, combined with Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu’s earlier preparations, the wind attribute alien spirit faces tragedy. The hand blade struck on Yun Xiao’s back seems glued and cannot be pulled away.

Bam!

At the same time, Yun Xiao’s right foot collides with the earth attribute alien spirit. With great force, the force-experienced earth attribute alien spirit is sent tumbling like a gourd, quite miserably.

In just a moment, the energy of the wind attribute alien spirit is completely devoured, along with the disappearance of its ninth-rank advanced alien spirit crystal.

Seeing this scene, many people are puzzled, not knowing if the wind attribute alien spirit disappeared voluntarily or if it was completely devoured by some method of Yun Xiao.

”First one!”

But how could Yun Xiao care about the thoughts of onlookers? As his deep voice sounds, Thunder Wings flash on his back, quickly dashing towards the earth attribute alien spirit he just kicked away.

With the support of Thunder Wings and the wind attribute ancestor veins, Yun Xiao’s speed at this moment is undoubtedly at its peak. Before the earth attribute alien spirit can even rise from the ground, he arrives in front of it.

Puff!

Seeing Yun Xiao lift his right leg high, then stamp fiercely on the earth attribute alien spirit’s back, a soft sound is heard. The ninth-rank advanced earth attribute alien spirit’s form is utterly burst open by this stomp.

Dust and stones fly, making the battlefield inside and out a bit quiet. Even the ferocious alien spirits pause their actions. If they had eyes and facial features, they might all be full of disbelief.

After all, these are ninth-rank advanced alien spirits, and there were ten encircling one human teenager who, in a split second, killed two, not even allowing any room for retaliation.

In the minds of low-level alien spirits, this was unthinkable. Didn’t they say that human cultivators of the same rank are far from being a match for alien spirits?

Why is the situation reversed on this human teenager?
