Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Is that guy really going to escape?”

Some people clearly heard Qingmu Wu’s sigh, and they couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed and unwilling, completely forgetting that earlier they were almost killed under the strong presence of that Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit.

People’s desires are never satisfied; when the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit was powerful, they only hoped to survive; now, with humanity holding the advantage, they wish to completely annihilate it.

Unfortunately, although the Gold Attribute Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit has fallen into a disadvantage, fighting against two adversaries, Lu Yanji and Xue Tianao’s cooperation ultimately did not crush it, and it found escaping to be quite easy.

After a few breaths of time, even some ordinary cultivators could see Lu Yanji getting further and further away from that golden light, clearly unable to catch up, feeling quite melancholy in their hearts.

Even Lu Yanji’s face was extremely gloomy; that was a Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, and if it escapes today, who knows how many human cultivators will die at its hands in the future.

Moreover, that Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit has seized the body of human expert Mu Shiyi, possessing strong deception; without knowledge, even some Peak Lingyun Realm experts could be killed by it in one move.

Allowing the escape of a Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit will be a significant hassle for the future of Tenglong Continent, but no matter how unwilling Lu Yanji is, that golden light is ultimately getting further away, and he knows he can no longer catch up.

Woosh!

However, just at this moment, as the golden light was about to disappear from everyone’s sight, a sudden sound of breaking wind came from above, causing everyone’s hearts to tighten.

Upon seeing this, everyone noticed that unknown to them, a human-shaped figure appeared on the path of the golden light, and upon seeing the visage of this figure, their faces unsurprisingly became a few shades uglier.

”Wu Zhukong!”

The three words spat from Qian Sanyuan’s mouth seemed to squeeze out from between his teeth because the figure suddenly appearing on the path of the golden light was remarkably Wu Zhukong, the current Palace Master of Wuyan Palace!

”I should have killed this guy in the Refining Treasure Hall from the beginning!”

Qingmu Wu clearly thought of something, now responding with some anger and an extreme sense of regret because he knew that if Wu Zhukong also escaped, Lianyun Mountain would inevitably have another major enemy to always be on guard against.

Qian Sanyuan and Qingmu Wu both had a deep understanding of the Refining Treasure Hall; they simultaneously thought at that moment that it was certainly the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit that broke the energy defense of the Refining Treasure Hall, thereby freeing Wu Zhukong.

After all, Yun Xiao was still in a coma at that time, and likely had no energy left to control Wu Zhukong, allowing this guy to escape from the Refining Treasure Hall.

”Not good, Yun Xiao!”

Thinking of that coarse-clothed youth, these two power-holding figures of Lianyun Mountain’s faces changed drastically since Wu Zhukong appeared outside, Yun Xiao in the Refining Treasure Hall was probably in grave danger.

”Damn it!”

Standing to the side, Guan Rufeng cursed lowly, but at present, they simply couldn’t enter the Refining Treasure Hall, only able to watch as Wu Zhukong approached the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, mood sinking significantly.

”Teacher, Yun Xiao has already been killed by me, take me with you!”

Amidst countless people’s varied thoughts and gazes, Wu Zhukong was already less than several feet away from the golden light of the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, and hearing his loud shout, the hearts of women like Xue Ningxiang and Liu Hanyi immediately sank to the bottom.

Clearly, at this moment, they also had guessed the likelihood that Qian Sanyuan and Qingmu Wu just speculated, thinking Yun Xiao in the Refining Treasure Hall was probably doomed.

But things have come to this point, even if their hearts are filled with rage and grief, they cannot do anything; they can only watch helplessly as the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit gets closer to Wu Zhukong.

Earlier, numerous human cultivators clearly saw the speed of that Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit; even if it carries someone, Lu Yanji may not catch up, and if these two escape, the continent won’t avoid another bloody storm.

”Go!”

At this moment, the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit thought of nothing else; for a loyal ”disciple” at Lingyun Realm, it still valued him greatly, and it had a hundred ways to ensure the other person continued to obey even after knowing it was a Strange Spirit.

Only hearing a deep voice from the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, at this moment, it was already less than a few feet away from Wu Zhukong, and just then, a sudden change occurred.

Swish!

As Wu Zhukong, initially a human-shaped figure, suddenly transformed into a black light at that instant, directly piercing through the body of the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit from the front to the back.

”Ah!”

Watching the sudden change, everyone instinctively let out an exclamation, while compared to those ordinary cultivators, Mo Qing and the other ladies were both surprised and delighted.

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

Mo Qing had seen that Black Light Wooden Sword countless times before, and was the first to exclaim in delight, causing many others nearby to instantly react, their faces also showing a hint of wild joy.

”Ah, I understand now, that Wu Zhukong was actually transformed by the Dragon Taming Sword!”

Liu Hanyi’s reaction wasn’t slow either. When she was on Impermanence Island, she had seen the Dragon Taming Sword transform into the Meridian Spirit of Lu Tianrun and pierce the throat of the Douling Commerce’s Vice President with a single sword.

It seems that Yun Xiao is once again repeating his old tricks, and those who have never seen the illusion form of the Dragon Taming Sword, especially the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, had no suspicion regarding Wu Zhukong’s appearance.

Even the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit was delighted by Wu Zhukong’s shout just now, thinking that Yun Xiao had indeed been killed inside Refining Treasure Hall.

In this Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit’s mind, the greatest threat was probably not the Lu Yanji who had reached the Heavenly Realm Middle Stage, nor the Xue Tianao who was at the Heavenly Realm Early Stage, but rather the young boy who hadn’t even broken through to the Lingyun Realm.

Whether it was the past at Demons Mountain or this time at the Meridian Refining Master Association, the young man named Yun Xiao always posed an extreme threat to him.

This Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit even had a feeling that if he were to meet Yun Xiao again, perhaps even he, this Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, wouldn’t be able to be a match for that human youth.

Therefore, when he heard Wu Zhukong say that he had already killed Yun Xiao, the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit instinctively chose to believe it. After all, with the great hall’s space shattered, Wu Zhukong, at the Peak of Lingyun Realm, took the opportunity to kill Yun Xiao – it was not impossible.

Unfortunately, joy turned to sorrow. Just as the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit’s heart was extremely excited, thinking he could escape to the sky and receive Wu Zhukong, a Peak of Lingyun Realm, as his subordinate, and that detestable human youth was dead, something changed abruptly!

What a sharp blade the Dragon Taming Sword was, suddenly attacking at such a close distance while the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit was caught unprepared. Even if the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit was two Great Ranks stronger than Yun Xiao, he ultimately fell into the young man’s cunning tactics.

Ding!

After a crisp, strange sound rang out, everyone saw the Black Light Wooden Sword piercing from the back of Mu Shiyi, topped with a Golden Light shining crystal.

”It’s the Spirit Crystal of the Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit!”

Upon seeing the gleaming Golden Light crystal, many people’s eyes flashed with fervor. It was the Spirit Crystal of a Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit—if obtained, perhaps breaking through one more Great Rank wouldn’t be impossible.

Of course, the premise is that you can withstand the power impact of the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Spirit Crystal. Counting everyone present, probably only Lu Yanji and Xue Tianao had that capacity.

It must be said that the Spirit Crystal of a Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, being the Gold Attribute Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Spirit Crystal, was indeed extremely hard. Even with the sharpness of the Dragon Taming Sword, it couldn’t pierce through it in a single strike.

Some sharp-minded individuals had fervor in their eyes but also a layer of worry, as Strange Spirits are different from humans—so long as the Spirit Crystal is not destroyed, they can resurrect.

Swish!

However, at the next moment, just as the Gold Attribute Spirit Crystal began to emit radiant golden light, preparing to gather a new body, unexpectedly, the sound of breaking wind emerged, and a hand stretched out sideways, grabbing the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Spirit Crystal.

”It’s Yun Xiao!

The eyes of everyone instantly moved from the arm to its owner, revealing the slender figure of a young boy standing in mid-air.

The one who suddenly appeared here and grabbed the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Spirit Crystal was indeed Yun Xiao. At this moment, as he sensed the abundant energy of the Spirit Crystal in his hand, a satisfied smile could not help but surface on his face.

In fact, when Yun Xiao had exercised his means and emerged from Refining Treasure Hall, he had already observed the battle unfolding in the sky. So he decisively refrained from showing himself immediately but instead employed some small tactics.

Small tactics create big events. At that moment, Yun Xiao’s hand seal transformed, deploying the Dragon Taming Nine Swords’ Second Form Illusion, with the Dragon Taming Sword transforming into Wu Zhukong’s human form, its realism even concealing the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit.

No matter how formidable the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit was, it couldn’t withstand the Dragon Taming Sword’s sharpness, and ultimately the Spirit Crystal was propelled outward, becoming Yun Xiao’s possession.

This all sounds simple, yet none of it could be achieved without a meticulous grasp of timing. By this point, the Heavenly Spirit Expert who had once escaped from Demons Mountain had finally completely fallen into Yun Xiao’s hands, never able to turn the tide.

At this very moment, the sky above the entrance plaza to Lianyun Mountain was silent, where the previously arrogant Low Level Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit—even in defeat—had managed to render Lu Yanji and Xue Tianao, two Heavenly Realm Experts helpless.

No one could have foreseen that such a formidable Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit would ultimately meet its end in this bizarre manner. Watching the plain-clothed youth hovering in the air, everyone’s heart was filled with a thick layer of awe.

Above the nine heavens, swords danced wildly, golden light flickered, so majestic!
