Chapter 1286: Chapter 1280: A Fu… Half-Immortal
Linghu Xian changed instantly before his eyes.
Up in the cloudy sky, beneath the swaying tentacles outside Jade Mist Valley, white mist began to seep from Linghu Xian’s body—this was the so-called immortal qi.
Li Wei had seen half-immortals before; the Zhao Clan’s Old Ancestor had transformed into a massive heart, and Zhiheng in his family, who inherited the Heavenly Dao Divine Heart, could also take the form of a heart.
But the Linghu Xian before him was different.
As the white mist spread, Linghu Xian’s body became as flawless as white jade, and… began to turn ethereal!
“Hahaha!” Linghu Xian sneered hideously.
Li Wei’s expression turned grave. Linghu Xian’s aura… was disappearing even as its power continuously climbed!
“You destroyed my Jade Mist Valley!”
A trace of bewilderment flashed across the faces of the Jade Mist Valley disciples at Linghu Xian’s roaring laughter.
Under that oppressive might that instilled primal fear in the body, Linghu Xian’s body grew increasingly ethereal.
He looked down on everyone as if viewing mere ants, his gaze finally locking onto Li Wei.
“You asked me to join you in dealing with the watchdog? Ridiculous. No one can order me!”
Beside Li Wei, the Fox Saint felt Linghu Xian’s current oppressive might and wore a solemn expression.
“He doesn’t care about the Jade Mist Valley disciples. His only goal is to use them to elevate his status beneath the Blood Moon.
Rather than cooperating with you against the watchdog, he would much prefer to compete with the watchdog over its food.”
The Fox Saint did not lower his voice in the slightest.
The Jade Mist Valley disciples all wore horrified expressions.
One second ago they were fighting a massive battle against the Li Clan, and now their Martial Grandfather was actually going to… eat them!
“He is a complete and utter lunatic…”
Before the Fox Saint could finish speaking, Linghu Xian’s body completely vanished.
Li Wei had been staring intently at Linghu Xian. As Linghu Xian disappeared, his heart skipped a beat.
The Body Integration realm already allowed one to sense everything around them through Spiritual power.
Yet, even though his Yin-Yang Fish diagram had encompassed the entire battlefield, he could not sense where Linghu Xian was now.
“Watch out!”
Following Li Wei’s sharp shout, the cultivators of the Three Prefectures were all instantly on high alert.
At that moment, the crowd looked down.
“Ah!” A terrified scream rang out.
Chaos erupted inside Jade Mist Valley, and its cultivators frantically fled for their lives.
The vanished Linghu Xian had already appeared amidst the panicked crowd. With his flawless white jade body and lotus-root-like hands, he pressed down on the heads of two disciples.
Li Wei was too familiar with this sight. Whether it was the Heavenly Dao Divine Heart, Dalong’s Underworld techniques, or Xinnian—all of them could do this.
“Use array formations to block him.”
Li Wei called out to the arriving Li Tianqi, then exchanged a glance with the numerous Body Integration experts. Everyone nodded in unison.
In a flash, Li Wei appeared on the ground of Jade Mist Valley. But just as he arrived, Linghu Xian vanished once again, leaving behind only two mummified corpses on the ground.
Turning his head.
Linghu Xian had already pressed his hands on the heads of two other Jade Mist Valley disciples. He stared mockingly at Li Wei.
“It’s useless. Humans will always be the most inferior creatures in the mortal realm.
Your lifespans are brief, and you only utilize the natural rules of heaven and earth. But once you become an immortal, everything is different.”
“We are the masters of heaven and earth, the sovereigns of the world. The Dao paths humans have painstakingly carved out will never be able to touch the Immortal Dao.”
Li Wei’s expression sank instantly.
To ordinary cultivators, the Spiritual power of an immortal was simply a dimensional strike. These ghost-like entities were bizarre to the extreme.
Right now, Linghu Xian was right in front of him. The two cultivators under Linghu Xian’s hands were drained dry once again, which also boosted Linghu Xian’s Spiritual power a bit.
Yet, Li Wei felt as if Linghu Xian was incredibly far away; even utilizing spatial rules, he still couldn’t catch up to the opponent.
What was worse…
“Bang!”
Li Wei looked toward the cloudy sky. The watchdog’s massive tentacles whipped down from the air, attacking the cultivators of the Three Prefectures.
Using the “Divine Array Tome”, Li Tianqi’s tortoise shells had formed the most fundamental grand array.
With just a single strike, it was already bombarded to the point of cracking. Fortunately, the cultivators of the Three Prefectures all possessed their own abilities, jointly fortifying the grand array.
But just how many tentacles did the watchdog have?
The mighty figures of the Three Prefectures could only join the Fox Saint in blocking the watchdog.
These sky-propping tentacles could not be frozen even by the Fox Saint’s Dao Integration realm techniques.
The suction cups on the tentacles emitted a pulling force, and the ice and snow that had initially frozen them began to be sucked away.
It was difficult for even Dao-Glimpsing realm cultivators to leave a scratch on the tentacles.
Now, all the mighty figures were searching for the watchdog’s vital weak point.
Linghu Xian looked up at the watchdog’s tentacles, his voice ethereal. “You won’t last much longer. In the face of immortals, your ultimate fate is merely to become food.”
“You’re just a half-immortal, shut the fuck up!!!”
Li Wei’s expression was ferocious. The Yin-Yang Fish diagram spun as he used his previous method to deal with Linghu Xian.
“Boom!”
Following the explosion of the Yin-Yang Detonation, it still couldn’t touch Linghu Xian.
It could only coincidentally blast the Jade Mist Valley disciples on the ground to death—which was still better than them being eaten by Linghu Xian.
Cultivators filled the sky, fleeing for their lives!
Li Wei continuously pursued Linghu Xian, but Linghu Xian seemed untouchable.
Originally, Linghu Xian had used the Dao of Wind, but now, after activating the immortal seed, he had become bizarre to a degree Li Wei couldn’t even comprehend; he was no longer bound by the Great Daos!
“What the hell is this thing?!!” Li Wei was covered in cold sweat.
It wasn’t out of fear of Linghu Xian, but because he was only facing one Linghu Xian, and Linghu Xian was created by the Blood Moon.
Inside the Blood Moon, there were many such things!
“It’s not an illusion. This oppressive might is a primal bodily instinct. Linghu Xian hasn’t even reached the Dao Integration realm; he’s inferior to Uncle Rain, yet more troublesome to deal with than Uncle Rain.”
“And this is a fucking half-immortal!”
At this time.
The expressions of the cultivators from the Three Prefectures in the cloudy sky all changed.
They had already seen the cultivators of Jade Mist Valley fleeing madly.
Linghu Xian’s flawless white jade body was devouring his own disciples.
Some disciples fled into the grand array they had formed, while others fled into the distance, yet they could not escape Linghu Xian’s grasp at all.
Even Li Wei’s spatial rules, with mirror surfaces springing up everywhere, could not stop Linghu Xian’s actions.
But compared to what the Li Clan’s Old Ancestor was facing, the watchdog they were facing…
Was the true terror!
This was a true immortal.
The cultivators of the Three Prefectures formed a grand array, each displaying their divine abilities.
They could only huddle together, defending against the tentacles slamming down from the sky like hellfire, while using techniques to attack the tentacles from afar.
Unfortunately, their attacks could not cause any substantial damage.
Those Jade Mist Valley disciples who fled outside were struck by the tentacles and instantly exploded into bloody pulp, which was then rapidly absorbed by the suction cups on the pulp.
A shrill, greedy voice echoed in the air, reverberating across the iridescent land illuminated by the cloudy sky’s array formations.
It spoke a single word: “Hungry.”
At this moment, all the mighty figures were defending against the tentacles.
They were also searching for the watchdog’s vital weak point, looking for the location of the ‘immortal infant’ based on the intelligence provided by the Li Clan.
They wore gloomy expressions.
The Li Clan had told them about immortals, but even having lived for a very long time, this was their first time witnessing the existence of an immortal.
They had never dealt with something so powerful and bizarre.
“Senior.”
Li Kuanghua, pulling the chain, arrived beside the Fox Saint.
Even though she had fought him before, she had to team up with him now for the sake of survival. “Can’t even you find the watchdog’s vital weak point?”
Li Kuanghua surveyed the tentacles thrashing in all directions.
This was only a part of the watchdog’s body, but even this brief exchange was enough to reveal the watchdog’s terror.
She manipulated Nun Dairou to use the ‘Buddhist Dharma’; this mind-affecting Buddhist method, capable of burning flesh and soul, had absolutely no effect on the watchdog’s tentacles.
The grand array wouldn’t last much longer. Once the watchdog ate everyone here, things would spiral completely out of control.
The Fox Saint frowned.
When Li Kuanghua and the mighty figures of the Three Prefectures fought him, they called him an ‘old geezer’.
Now, she was calling him ‘Senior’. Xu Cuihua used to constantly claim Li Kuanghua was a sweet and obedient girl; it seemed she had been lying.
He casually waved his hand, freezing a tentacle slamming down from the sky, and turned to Li Kuanghua. “I can find it.”
“Then hurry up and find it!”
Li Yaotie glared.
“I won’t. You people are not being honest.” The Fox Saint wore a peculiar expression.
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the Li Clan members present stiffened.
Even the mighty figures of the Three Prefectures felt their hearts tighten.
“You have hidden many people in the surroundings. A great many.” The Fox Saint calmly observed the Three Prefectures cultivators resisting the tentacles.
A snowflake suddenly appeared in his hand, floating upwards, standing out starkly beneath the watchdog’s natural grand array.
This snowflake radiated brilliance, suddenly illuminating many people in a flash.
On a certain mountain.
Li Yunlin, Li Yunbing, Mad Blood Demon Lord, and the Seven Ironclads, who had originally been standing at the peak, suddenly looked up with strange expressions.
Li Yunbing smiled bitterly and shook his head at Li Yunlin. “Eldest Brother, it seems we can’t hide anymore.”
In the cloudy sky, A silver coffin floated in the air, bearing the couple Li Dalong and Xu Cuihua, along with Li Xinnian.
Illuminated by the white light, Li Xinnian reached out, caught a snowflake, and took a deep breath. “Great-grandfather, Great-grandmother, we’ve been discovered.”
At the edge of the watchdog’s illuminated domain.
Beside Li Kuangren and the couple, Li Xinghuo stood a golden toad, and behind them was the fully equipped 200,000-strong Azure Cloud Army.
As the snowflake fell, Li Kuangren nodded.
Li Xinghuo waved his hand at the Azure Cloud Army. “Spear Forest Array.”
Boom!
In an instant, an array formation formed in the sky. Black long spears were hurled out one after another, landing upon the array.
In the distance.
Three thousand disciples of the Eternal Immortal Sect stood behind a cultivator who stood with his hands behind his back, resembling a banished immortal.
As a disciple called out, “Senior Martial Brother Xu Xian,” Xu Xian said faintly, “Make your move.”
With a single command, as the Immortal Sect disciples formed an array in the sky, a white jade staircase exuding a primordial aura materialized.
And the Xuanyuan Clan, the Zhangsun Clan…
In the heavens and on the earth, under the Fox Saint’s array in the cloudy sky, the hidden cultivators could no longer remain concealed.
“What?!!”
The brilliance of this array also fell upon the three Masters of the Martial Academy.
Their expressions darkened. They hadn’t expected to be discovered as well.
The First Master sighed, “Let’s go. We must leave Grandhaven Prefecture; this is no longer our…”
But just as the words left his mouth, their expressions drastically changed.
Above the clouds, someone approached, treading on the mist.
The cloud layer behind him surged forward with the momentum of overturning mountains and emptying seas, following his footsteps.
No matter how composed the three Masters were, upon seeing this person’s familiar face and sensing the impossible yet incredibly familiar aura on him, a trace of disbelief flashed in their eyes, and their minds instantly went blank.
“It’s you?!!”
Only upon seeing this person were they certain that the three Masters who went to deal with Li Zhiheng and Li Tianming were absolutely not the murderers who ordered the slaughter of Grandhaven Prefecture’s commoners.
Nor was anyone among the three of them playing dirty tricks.
“Banshu Qingping!” the First Master shouted sternly.
From this City Lord of Grandhaven Prefecture, he actually sensed the aura of the Red Dust Realm!
Furthermore… it was stronger than the Red Dust Realm of all six of their Masters combined!
At this time, Everyone in Grandhaven Prefecture underwent a drastic change in expression.
Deep underground, an array formation identical to the Blood Moon of the Western Frontier began to surge.
Drop after drop of blood, along with the vital essence and flesh accumulated from the commoners of Grandhaven Prefecture, began to float into the sky and surge into Banshu Qingping’s body.
The Fifth Master had a violent temper. The book in his hand radiated brilliance as he charged at Banshu Qingping to kill him.
But Banshu Qingping merely waved his hand gently.
The Prefecture Lord, who had once been assassinated and could only be saved by Li Tianming, swatted away the Fifth Master’s Spiritual power and body as easily as swatting a fly.
As this vital essence entered his body, Banshu Qingping stepped onto one of the watchdog’s tentacles.
He calmly looked down at the cultivators of the Three Prefectures, his gaze lingering on Li Tianming for a moment before finally fixing on the Fox Saint. He gave a slight nod. “Senior.”
The Fox Saint returned the greeting and, under the gazes of the Three Prefectures’ cultivators, flew toward Banshu Qingping.
Seeing the two standing together, the Li Clan members were stunned for a long time.
They saw Banshu Qingping looking at Linghu Xian, who was grabbing two more cultivators, and his ethereal voice echoed, “Who says the Human Race is inferior to immortals?”
“You…”
Linghu Xian was grabbing two Jade Mist Valley disciples. He hadn’t expected ambushes in all directions and was already furious.
Now, seeing a terrifying aura approaching in the cloudy sky, and the floating vital blood of the massacred Grandhaven Prefecture commoners from over the years, this useless Prefecture Lord had completely transformed and arrived with overwhelming momentum.
He was just about to sneer and shout angrily.
But suddenly, his face stiffened.
He saw Banshu Qingping wave his hand, and the blood floating in the surroundings actually enveloped him.
His immortal methods could not be hidden, and as Banshu Qingping reached out and clenched his fist, “Pfft!”
Li Wei, who had been pursuing Linghu Xian, frowned.
Staring at Banshu Qingping and the Fox Saint standing together, he cursed inwardly, “Motherfucker.”
In that moment, he realized that in this Grandhaven Prefecture excursion, their old Li family had been completely outplayed by the old fox.
