Chapter 217 - Dilemma

Ancestor Yuansha said in a sinister tone, "Do you really think your attacks, like those of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, can break through the Black Wind Flag's protection?"

Long Meng said, "Yuan Sha, don't be so sure of your victory. Even if you can temporarily control the Black Wind Flag, you can only unleash a small portion of its power."

"If they attack fiercely, you won't be able to hold on for long."

"Without a source of Devilish Qi, how much of your great Divine Ability can you truly unleash?"

Everyone was suddenly shaken. Yes, Ancestor Yuansha was strong, but now that the Origin Qi of the Mortal Realm had drastically changed, even a Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator found it difficult to fully exert their Soul Transformation strength, only able to suppress themselves or send out a Divided Soul to walk the world.

Their Clones only had the strength of a Late Stage Nascent Soul, but because they wielded great Divine Abilities, the power they unleashed was enough to rival a Peak Late Stage Nascent Soul.

Li Feiyu slapped his Storage Pouch, and a green Spirit Pearl flew out.

The young man surnamed Xu's pupils contracted, clearly recognizing it.

The Spirit Pearl floated in the air, casting out countless rays of green light. Wherever the light enveloped, the strong winds suddenly weakened considerably.

If the Black Wind Flag were to fully unleash its power, the Wind-Dispelling Spirit Pearl might not be able to stop it, but against a small portion of its might, Li Feiyu could still use it to defend himself.

Everyone stopped bothering with defending against the strong winds and instead launched a fierce assault.

At this moment, she faced the Nine Truths Subduing Demon Formation and the eight spirit ruler, and also had to withstand the bombardment of Divine Abilities and Magic Treasures from human Cultivators coming from all directions.

Even as a Sacred Ancestor of the Demon Realm, she was extremely solemn at this moment.

After all, she was just a wisp of a Divided Soul, and had only just broken through the Seal.

A cold glint flashed in Ancestor Yuansha's eyes as she took a moment to flick her fingers repeatedly, as if flicking at the air.

Among the Ye Family Cultivators, an old man and a Daoist nun with Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivation had a strange blood-red flower bloom between their eyebrows, and their corpses fell backward.

Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they involuntarily stopped their attacks.

Li Feiyu said, "Do you think if you don't attack, she won't make a move? She's just killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, a deterrent."

"Those with Early Stage Nascent Soul or who feel their strength is weaker can retreat, but the attacks cannot stop!"

"Otherwise, if she doesn't act, Li will!"

Under Li Feiyu's coercion, the others resumed their attacks.

Ancestor Yuansha glared fiercely at Li Feiyu, knowing he was the key.

So she flicked her fingers at Li Feiyu repeatedly.

Li Feiyu unleashed his Earth Magnetism Divine Power fully, along with his Black Yellow Armor and a replica of the Moon Reflection Ring, which encircled him. A series of thuds erupted around him, but he remained completely unharmed.

Ancestor Yuansha's face was gloomy.

With both offense and defense, if she didn't use powerful Divine Abilities, she couldn't do anything to him.

But with the entanglement of the eight spirit ruler and the others, she truly couldn't spare the attention.

"You truly have angered me!"

Ancestor Yuansha spoke, and everyone felt a chill creep into their hearts.

"I originally intended to break through the Formation with the Black Wind Flag, but this Sacred Ancestor can't wait any longer!"

Ancestor Yuansha exhaled softly, then formed a hand Seal. Her entire body was enveloped in a ball of silver light, dazzling and blinding, like a silver sun.

From within the silver light, a wolf howl that shook the nine heavens emanated, followed by an exceptionally powerful Spiritual Pressure descending upon the place out of thin air.

Many people's faces suddenly turned pale, finding it somewhat difficult to cope.

Under this powerful pressure, the entire space rumbled, and the ground also trembled violently, with cracks of various sizes appearing.

With a flash of light, a two-headed silver wolf, like a giant mountain, appeared before everyone.

One wolf head was black, the other silver. The silver one had its eyes tightly shut, while the black one raised its head, baring its fangs, its eyes wide with fury.

The silver giant wolf's sharp claws were like massive blades, gleaming with cold light.

Facing the true form of this Lower Realm wolf Yao, almost everyone gasped in cold air.

The silver fur covering its entire body suggested astonishing defense; perhaps even the attacks of a Great Cultivator would only cause minor damage.

Just then, a white light flashed, and another person was teleported in.

After he entered, seeing the scene, his expression immediately became extremely solemn, and he looked around.

Mrs. Mu said, "Immortal Master Sisan?!"

"Fellow Daoists, what is going on here? What's with that terrifying giant wolf Yao?"

Mrs. Mu said with a bitter smile, "Since you've come in, it will be very difficult to get out. The teleportation Formation here has already been destroyed."

Immortal Master Sisan's face froze.

"That wolf Yao is an Ancient Devil sealed here. Ancestor Yuansha occupied the body of a wolf Yao Consort who descended from the Upper Realm to form it."

"As for that one, it's one of the Yao Consort's Primordial Spirits, also a sealed individual."

Li Feiyu's eyes flashed with blue light, "Fellow Daoist, your shapeshifting method is quite good. You must have used some secret treasure."

Mrs. Mu and the others' expressions froze.

What did he mean?

"A Late Stage Cultivator pretending to be Middle Stage, and you're not human, are you?"

"Since we're in a predicament, why not openly reveal your true form and join the battle with us?"

Everyone looked at Immortal Master Sisan, and waves of Divine Sense swept over him, but they found nothing unusual.

"What is this Fellow Daoist saying? I don't think I know you!"

"Although I'm not as famous as the Ye Family Great Elder and others, I do have some renown. Many in the Southern Border know me."

"Are you going to force me to reveal my true form? You can't hide it from me. You have Corpse Qi. Could you be a certain Corpse Cultivator Great Yao?"

"And a Late Stage Cultivator at that. There aren't many such people in the entire Great Jin."

"Elder Ye, you're more familiar with the top Cultivators of Great Jin than I am. You should be able to guess a thing or two."

The Ye Family Great Elder's expression changed several times. After some thought, he said, "The only one who fits the description that I can think of is the Vice Valley Master of Wan Yao Valley."

Everyone's hearts trembled. Wan Yao Valley was in no way weaker than the Righteous Path's Taiyi Gate and the Demonic Path's Tianmo Sect.

Immortal Master Sisan showed a strange smile, "Fellow Daoist Ye, are you so certain and trusting of this… Cultivator surnamed Li?"

The Ye Family Great Elder snorted, "I naturally won't believe him entirely, but since he says so, there's no need for him to lie to us. I still admire his Divine Abilities."

"If you are truly just Immortal Master Sisan, then it's nothing. But if you're not, then hiding among us would be dangerous."

"If you were to ambush a Cultivator, even a Great Cultivator might not be able to withstand it."

Immortal Master Sisan sighed, looking at them with a hint of wariness. A flash of black light passed, and he transformed into a white-furred, bear-faced Yao Beast with bared fangs.

His body exuded boundless Corpse Qi.

"It's you!" Lion-Headed Eagle Beast said in a booming voice.

"You know him?"

"Before he became a Corpse Refining, he was also a Spirit Beast, just like us, descended from the Spirit Realm. We had some acquaintance back then."

The ugly woman Gui Ling also nodded.

Clearly, she also recognized him.

The Ten Thousand Year Corpse Bear grinned, "Fellow Daoists, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you all to be sealed along with Kunwu Mountain. What good fortune."

"Unlike me, who has become like this."

Li Feiyu said, "Small talk can wait for now. Let's think about our current situation."

After Ancestor Yuansha revealed her true form as a wolf Yao, she fully focused on dealing with the Nine Truths Subduing Demon Formation. Clearly, breaking it was only a matter of time.

The Spirit Beast phantoms and silver light pillars unleashed by the eight spirit ruler also couldn't do anything to her.

Li Feiyu once again led the others in attack.

The wolf Yao's massive tail, like a wide silver ribbon, swept down from the sky. A huge crack was torn open in the ground, and two Cultivators, unable to dodge in time, were smashed into meat paste.

They were from the Ye Family again.

By now, only the Ye Family Great Elder remained among the Ye Family's Nascent Soul Cultivators.

His face was pitch black, extremely grim.

The iron-like giant tail swept wildly like a whip. Mrs. Mu's Junior Sister was also unfortunately struck, her body severed in two.

However, her Nascent Soul escaped and fled to Mrs. Mu's side, where she was protected.

Those who could survive the wolf tail's attack either had excellent escape techniques or astonishing Magic Treasures.

Besides Mrs. Mu, Han Li, and Lin Yinping, everyone else present was a Late Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Boom boom boom ~

A series of explosions erupted, and the Nine Truths Subduing Demon Formation was completely shattered by Ancestor Yuansha.

Such vigorous manipulation of the wolf Yao's body also consumed a considerable amount of Ancestor Yuansha's own Devilish Qi.

She knew that this Demon Suppressing Pagoda had a ninth floor, where the source of Devilish Qi was sealed, and it was all extremely pure True Devilish Qi.

If she obtained this True Devilish Qi, then everyone present would be nothing but ants that could be easily crushed.

Above the wolf Yao's head, the Black Wind Flag transformed into a dark black Flood Dragon, hidden within the yellow wind, spitting out black wind to resist the silver giant lotus and Spirit Beast phantoms.

Meanwhile, Ancestor Yuansha herself silently chanted something, then a Magic Treasure was spat out from the black wolf head's mouth.

The Magic Treasure glowed brightly, and accompanied by her hand Seals, the entire space trembled violently, gradually becoming unstable.

Long Meng's expression changed, "Stop her! Yuan Sha wants to open the sealed space of the ninth floor. The source of Devilish Qi is sealed there. If she gets it, she can unleash the great Divine Abilities of the Ancient Devil race without restraint."

"By then, even a Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator wouldn't be able to do anything to her."

"Everyone will die, and the passage to the Demon Realm will open. Everything that happened in ancient times will be replayed in your era!"

Everyone's expressions changed drastically.

The ancient Mortal Realm was extremely prosperous, with people constantly Cultivating to the Late Stage Deity Transformation Realm and entering the Spirit Realm. But it was due to the invasion of Ancient Devils.

A large number of ancient Cultivators perished, and the great war caused massive changes in the Mortal Realm, leading to insufficient Origin Qi in later generations, making it extremely rare for anyone to reach the Deity Transformation Stage.

It was almost impossible for anyone above the Middle Stage to appear.

If Ancient Devils invaded, there would be no safe place left in the entire Mortal Realm.

Thinking of this, everyone attacked frantically.

Mrs. Mu came to Li Feiyu's side, whispering something to him.

Li Feiyu nodded slightly.

Han Li glanced at Li Feiyu, his eyes flickering.

"Silvermoon, was what Long Meng just said true?"

Silvermoon responded telepathically: "It's true. The ninth floor indeed Seals the source of Devilish Qi. True Devilish Qi is the root Qi of the Demon Realm. If it were in the Spirit Realm, there would still be ways to eliminate it, but your Mortal Realm has no means, so it can only be sealed."

"Isn't that just a super time bomb then!"

"Who knows when it will explode, causing endless disaster!"

"By the way, the one in the Endless Sea of Tiannan isn't the same as this one, is it?"

"That's right, but the scale here should be larger."

Han Li's eyes flickered.

Just thinking about it made him fearful. If it hadn't been resealed back then, probably half of Tiannan would have been turned into a Demonic Domain.

Waves of Divine Abilities and Magic Treasure attacks struck the wolf Yao, inflicting considerable damage.

But it seemed unstoppable.

A jade green Seal within Li Feiyu's sleeve glowed faintly, unnoticed by anyone.

Suddenly, a spatial rift appeared. The wolf Yao's expression turned to delight, and its body abruptly shrank, transforming into a dark light that shot directly into it.

The others wanted to escape, but the spatial rift generated an extremely strong suction force, pulling everyone involuntarily closer.

Li Feiyu unleashed his Divine Abilities fully, protecting himself.

Mrs. Mu entered the enlarged golden and silver shuttle with her Junior Sister's Nascent Soul.

Han Li patted his Storage Pouch, and a small cauldron flew out. The small cauldron suddenly grew larger, and Han Li entered it with Silvermoon.

The spatial rift was extremely dangerous, and everyone displayed their Divine Abilities to protect themselves.

A moment later, everyone was sucked into the spatial rift, including the eight spirit ruler above the palace.

Two people entered the space where Ancestor Yuansha was previously sealed.

They were precisely Xuan Qingzi of Taiyi Gate and Seven Wonders True Man of Tianmo Sect.

However, not long after they entered, they encountered the spatial rift. After protecting themselves, they were also sucked into it.

The eighth floor had two paths, but the ninth floor only had one.

This was an independent space, several miles in the middle, with a hazy yellow mist rolling around.

A few people floated in the air: Long Meng, the Yao Consort, the Four Yaos, the Ten Thousand Year Corpse Bear, Mrs. Mu, and others were all there. The only one missing was the Ye Family Great Elder.

Beneath them was a huge altar, over a hundred zhang tall, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, carved from pristine white jade.

A circle of tall stone pillars formed a super Formation surrounding the altar, each pillar shimmering with light.

On top of the altar stood a two-headed giant wolf, like a small mountain. The black wolf head spat out boundless black Qi, confronting everyone.

Li Feiyu and Han Li were only a few zhang apart. The two joined forces, simultaneously unleashing Divine Devilbane Lightning, which greatly counteracted the black Qi.

Elsewhere, the Ten Thousand Year Corpse Bear wielded a blood-stained blade, slashing wildly through the black Qi torrent.

As for the others, they could only protect themselves with Divine Abilities and Magic Treasures.

Their attacks had no effect on this black Qi.

"Fortunately, the Seal hasn't opened yet, otherwise the entire Great Jin, even the entire Mortal Realm, would be finished!"

Xuan Qingzi looked at the two stone tablets behind the altar and let out a long breath.

Seven Wonders True Man and the others knew that opening the sealing Formation required a special Magic Treasure. They had only heard of one of them, named the Jade Dragon Seal.

The two exchanged glances, both with doubts in their eyes. They looked at everyone present, guessing that the Jade Dragon Seal must be on one of them.

They hoped it wouldn't fall into the hands of the Ancient Devil Sacred Ancestor!

Xuan Qingzi pulled out a sheathed yellow ancient sword. When this sword was unsheathed, it appeared dull and ancient, as if extremely old. But when he opened his mouth and spat a ball of essence blood onto the sword.

The sword immediately let out a dragon's roar, and its body burst forth with boundless yellow light, very dazzling.

He formed a hand Seal with one hand, joining two fingers, and solemnly wiped them across the sword body, then lightly swung it downwards.

A giant Sword Qi, over ten zhang long, erupted from the ancient sword and slashed directly at the wolf Yao.

The wolf Yao's eyes were cold. It shuddered, and a ball of black Qi erupted from its body, all of it entering its mouth. The next moment, it spat out a thick, liquid-like black Qi.

It surged towards the giant sword light.

Mrs. Mu exclaimed, "This is a demonic transformation Divine Ability! If a Magic Treasure is touched by it, it will be demonized and controlled by her."

Everyone's hearts trembled, and they treated it with solemnity.

The sword light and black Qi intertwined, creating an earth-shattering roar.

Countless yellow lights exploded, piercing the thick black liquid, leaving it riddled with holes.

At this moment, Seven Wonders True Man also made his move. The Seven Treasures Spirit Radiance swept towards the two-headed giant wolf.

The two-headed wolf Yao repeatedly spat out several balls of black liquid. After the seven-colored radiance entered it, it immediately fell silent.

Seven Wonders True Man's expression changed drastically. Only then did he realize that what Mrs. Mu had said earlier was true, and he immediately recalled his Seven Treasures.

The black liquid continued to spread towards Seven Wonders True Man. Xuan Qingzi continuously slashed down several yellow sword lights, finally blocking it.

Yuan Sha knew that if she couldn't break through the Restrictions here and get the True Devilish Qi replenishment, she would eventually be worn down by them.

However, she was not sure if the crucial item was in the hands of these people.

The two-headed wolf Yao suddenly let out a loud howl towards the sky, its entire body covered in dark light. Within the dark light, a flash occurred, and something flew towards Li Feiyu at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

According to Blood Flame's previous statement, Li Feiyu had exposed his identity, only a step behind the Ye Family Cultivators.

It was impossible for the Ye Family to compete with him for treasures.

Therefore, if anyone present was most likely to have the Magic Treasure to control the sealing Formation in his Storage Pouch, it was definitely Li Feiyu.

In this situation, Ancestor Yuansha could only take a gamble!

Bang bang bang ~

With several consecutive sounds, several strange sharp blades instantly pierced through the Earth Magnetism Domain, breaking through Li Feiyu's layers of defensive Divine Abilities and sending him flying.
