Chapter 194: The Demise of Wei Kingdom's Living Fossil
Sky Above Thousand Leaf Island.
Ancestor Ao of Thunder Origin Sect, True Person Nalan Xi of Azure Sea Immortal City, and Old Ancestor Yuwen Hong of Spirit Feather Sect, the three Golden Cores formed an encirclement, jointly besieging a Howling Moon Wolf King that was tens of yards tall.
The three of them erupted with world-destroying Spell power, beating the Tier 3 Demon King into a continuous retreat.
A moment later.
A large hole was blasted open in the Howling Moon Demon King's head, and some strange, blood-colored Vine tendrils could be vaguely seen inside, twisting and wriggling—it was precisely that Demon Vine.
The attacks of the Golden Core Ancestors caused Flesh to fly from the Wolf King's body, but seemed unable to cause substantial damage to the Demon Vine inside.
Moreover, countless Blood Vines eerily gushed out from the Wolf King's mouth, possessing Magic Warding Ability, unexpectedly and briefly blocking the three Golden Cores for a moment.
Subsequently, the Demonic Creature's body suddenly erupted with a Blood Light, taking advantage of the opportunity to transform into a rainbow light and break through the gap between the three of them.
"Not good! It's going to escape!"
"We can't let it escape; as long as it has Blood Food, it will quickly recover its Strength."
Immediately following.
Three Escaping Lights chased rapidly in the direction of the Blood Light.
Qin Ming watched from a distance, dumbstruck, never expecting this Demon Vine's Vitality to be so tenacious.
Under the Offensive of Golden Core Ancestors like these, it could still escape. The tens of thousands of Demonic Beasts entrenched On the island of Thousand Leaf Island rapidly collapsed under the Thunderous Offensive of the three Major Powers.
After losing the leadership of the Tier 3 Demon Vine, they scattered like birds and beasts startled by the collapse of a tree, falling into utter chaos.
Qin Ming hesitated for a moment. Seeing that quite a few Rogue Cultivators were heading in the direction of the three Golden Cores chasing the Blood Curse Demon Vine, likely also going to watch this crucial battle.
And so, he also stealthily concealed his presence and followed.
After flying for half an hour, Qin Ming stopped.
Kunwu Mountain, Twin Peaks.
This place was located at the border of the Beast Roar Mountain Range and Spirit Nest Archipelago.
Two enormous Mountain Peaks, like giant guardians, stood silently in the cloud-wreathed Mountain Range, piercing straight into the Sky.
The Howling Moon Wolf King, parasitized by the Blood Curse Demon Vine, seemed to want to escape into the Beast Roar Mountain Range.
However, it was trapped beneath Twin Peaks by a High-Tier Formation from True Person Cang Hai's hands, and was currently trying to break open the Formation with brute force.
Once it was allowed to escape into the Beast Roar Mountain Range again, finding it would be as difficult as ascending to the Sky.
Beneath the Sky, a net of golden light flickered unsteadily, like a golden net, inverted over the Twin Peaks, countless Runes emitting immense Power, swimming within the Formation space.
The Howling Moon Demon King's powerful attacks struck the Formation again and again, causing True Person Nalan Xi's expression to change.
"This Formation of mine is hastily arranged, it won't be able to trap this fiend for long, Fellow Daoists, quickly use whatever methods you have!"
True Person Cang Hai Nalan Xi manipulated the Formation Plate with one hand, while speaking rapidly to the other two Golden Core Ancestors.
"Humph!"
"This old man has dominated the Southern Wastelands Cultivation World for over five hundred years, and has witnessed quite a few rises and falls."
"How can the Land of Wei Kingdom tolerate Demons running rampant!"
"Before leaving, this old man can still do something for this land, and that can be considered a life without regrets."
Ancestor Ao of Thunder Origin Sect's gaze was like a torch, and an unprecedented determination flashed across his sharply chiseled face.
Immediately, a transparent Spirit Pill appeared in his hand, with six clearly visible Principle patterns encircling it.
"High-Grade Soul Returning Pill!!"
Old Ancestor Yuwen Hong of Spirit Feather Sect and True Person Nalan Xi beside him also recognized this Pill, their expressions suddenly changing! Even Yuwen Hong stared at Ancestor Ao with a somewhat complex expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Hahahaha! Yuwen Hong, this old man can't continue to fight with you anymore."
"But don't think that just because Thunder Origin Sect has lost this old bone of mine, there will be no one who can be your Opponent."
Ancestor Ao laughed wildly towards the Sky, then swallowed the High-Grade Soul Returning Pill in his hand without the slightest hesitation.
In an instant.
Ancestor Ao's Magical Power Aura began to continuously climb and surge in a strange manner.
Boom! His surrounding Aura surged, and his tyrannical Magical Power instantly reached the Peak Early Core Formation Stage Realm, but this was not the end.
Crack! An enormous Spiritual Pressure suddenly descended on Twin Peaks, and Ancestor Ao's Cultivation directly reached the Mid Core Formation Stage! The Blood Curse Demon Vine also noticed this scene, finally revealing a look of panic, and began to attack the Formation even more frantically.
Ancestor Ao was seen forming a strange Magic Art with his hand, then disappearing from the spot.
When he reappeared, a Sword Formation of golden color was already surrounding him, a full thirty-six golden flying swords.
Swish swish swish! Ancestor Ao pointed with his sword finger, immediately pointing at the Howling Moon Demon King, countless golden sword lights crisscrossed, anything touched by them would be cut and shattered in an instant.
The Tier 3 Demon King parasitized by Blood Vines was no exception, under Ancestor Ao's peak strike in his lifetime, its body fell apart.
Then, it was swallowed by countless golden sword lights.
…
After Ancestor Ao of Thunder Origin Sect unleashed this peak sword strike, his entire person's Vitality began to decline sharply.
His hair instantly turned white, wrinkles crisscrossed his face, his face withered and yellow, yet a smile still hung on the corner of his mouth.
Gradually.
Ancestor Ao's body, like those golden sword lights, turned into countless starlight specks, separating and scattering in the air.
At this point, Ancestor Ao, the living Fossil who had dominated the Wei Kingdom Cultivation World for five hundred years, also displayed his most dazzling moment in this battle.
"Look quickly!"
"Ancestor Ao has killed that Demon!"
"This Demon is finally dead!"
"Alas~ It's a pity Ancestor Ao has also Fallen."
"It looks like he used the cost of consuming Lifespan to unleash his strongest strike."
"Ah? Then without Ancestor Ao, who in Thunder Origin Sect will contend against Spirit Feather Sect's Golden Core?"
"..."
Qin Ming in the distance also watched the entire process.
He was still immersed in the earth-shattering Sword Formation of Ancestor Ao.
Under the ripple effects of Spell Power of this level, even if it was as strong as a Tier 3 Demon Plant, there was no possibility of survival.
"Phew~ Really close! Finally, I don't need to run away."
"Fortunately, Wei Wuyai was looking for someone else to refine Pills, without my High-Grade Soul Returning Pill, the three Golden Cores really might not have been able to kill this Demon."
True Person Nalan Xi in the Sky also put away the Formation and descended with Yuwen Hong to check the Demon Plant's Corpse to ensure nothing was missed.
Soon.
The two of them found the Corpse of the Howling Moon Demon King that had been possessed, as well as a Blood Curse Demon Vine that had also been cut into pieces, in a canyon at Twin Peaks.
"Why is a small section missing from this Blood Curse Demon Vine's Corpse?"
Just as Yuwen Hong and True Person Nalan Xi found all the Corpse of this Demon and placed them together, they were surprised to discover that the centermost Vine was missing.
"The missing part is the core of this Blood Demon Vine, could it have escaped?"
"Impossible, I just swept through with my Divine Sense, and there are no other Aura of this Demon Vine within a Range of several dozen miles."
"It should have been reduced to ashes in Fellow Daoist Ao's Sword Formation."
"Even if a branch or half-section escaped by luck, this Demon's Origin has already been destroyed, it's impossible for it to recover to the Tier 3 Realm within several hundred years, it's no longer a threat."
"Right now, the matter of returning to defend against the Beast Tide assault is more important, let the disciples search with this place as the center, I will return to Immortal City first."
"Very well."
"By the way, how could Ancestor Ao have a High-Grade Soul Returning Pill?" Yuwen Hong asked, somewhat surprised.
"I heard that Alchemist Yan of Thunder Origin Sect failed to refine it more than ten times and still didn't succeed."
"Hehe! Perhaps he found another Pill Master to refine it, this old one also does not know."
