Born with immortal seed

Chapter 578 A great victory
"The Hair Clone Technique!"

The colorful phoenix revealed its true form, hooked the white ape with one claw, and flew out of the Star River Sword Formation.

The most powerful divine ability that made the Red-Eared Ancestor famous throughout the world was the Hair Clone Technique, which could create up to nine clones that were exactly the same as the original body.

It can use all supernatural powers and spells except for the Hair-Cloning Technique, and can fight and perform other actions independently, possessing extremely high intelligence.

The hair clone possesses 30% of the original's strength, but its biggest limitation is that it cannot stray too far from Ancestor Red Ear.

A hundred miles away, they might only have 10% of their strength left.

When you travel thousands of miles, you lose your divine power and return to being just a hair.

The Northern Qi and Lankeshan are separated by more than a million miles, yet they were still able to successfully summon the avatar of the Red-Eared Ancestor.

"This monkey hair that the Ancestor bestowed upon me has been tempered thirty-three times by its demonic essence, making it a hundred times more spiritual than an ordinary hair... Even so, the Ancestor's clone that I obtained in exchange only has the strength of the peak of the fourth rank. Fortunately, its realm of Dao True Meaning is still at the Nascent Soul level. If it truly possessed all the abilities of the Ancestor's hair clone, I would have turned around and blasted this kid to death long ago."

The white ape swallowed the iron rod that was heavier than a mountain, and its muscles, which were originally as firm as metal, became loose.

Once separated from the Red-Eared Ancestor, this monkey hair was not easy to activate, and it almost drained all of its demonic energy.

It could only entrust its chance of escape entirely to Cai Feng. If the other party betrayed its promise and escaped alone, it would have no choice but to await its doom.

This act of risking his life was not only because he believed that Cai Feng was a demon, but also because the demon's true form had an astonishing speed, giving him a greater chance of escaping.

With a flap of its wings, the phoenix created a path through the air, propelling it forward.

In an instant, they distanced themselves from Old Man Hu.

"Hey you two, give me a hand!"

Old Man Hu, who was a step behind, felt the terrifying sword light behind him. He could easily deal with one or two sword lights, but there were more than a thousand of them.

Once trapped inside, it will not last more than ten breaths before being blasted into dust.

The two leading flying swords shone the brightest.

One possibility is that it is divine thunder from the heavens above, carrying a suffocating pressure.

One of them had a dark and obscure demonic light, and an aura as deep as an abyss, which made all the flying swords except for the lightning sword light seem weak and insignificant.

"My life is over!"

Cai Feng let out a strange cry and spat out a die, which spun several times in the air before stopping on the number 'four'.

The dice disappeared, transforming into thousands of auspicious wisps of air that blocked all the sword lights behind them.

Even the most unstoppable sword light, once entangled in the auspicious aura, becomes like being stuck in a quagmire, unable to move an inch.

Although the auspicious energy also disappeared very quickly, it at least bought them time to escape.

"The last treasure my grandfather forged before he fell into his slumber was indeed useful. After returning, I will never come to this godforsaken place in the Northern Region again!"

The colorful phoenix burned with demonic energy, its wings covered in a streak of light, and it seemed to be moving faster and faster.

"Another Nascent Soul Transformation technique?"

Bai Zichen could sense from the flying sword that the thousands of auspicious energies contained a peaceful atmosphere, filled with the true meaning of non-aggression and cessation of killing.

Even the flying sword, a symbol of killing, was subtly influenced, softened, and neutralized.

Needless to say, the third-tier flying swords fell to the ground with a clattering sound.

The fourth-tier flying sword performed slightly better, managing to entangle with the auspicious energy for a while, struggling to overcome obstacles.

Only the Purple Star Thunder Sword and the Abyssal Prison Demon Sword were almost unaffected, sweeping away all obstacles, accompanied by the rapid, cracking sound of tearing silk.

Behind the white ape is the Red-Eared Ancestor of Rotten Axe Mountain, so it's normal for him to be able to summon a projection of a Nascent Soul demon. However, this projection is far stronger than the one that Ao Laolong once attacked from afar.

This colorful phoenix has a completely different trump card, but its Dao realm is far beyond the ordinary, indicating that it also has a Nascent Soul Demon Venerable behind it.

On second thought, given that Old Man Hu came from the Dead Sea of ​​Qingqiu and had a fifth-tier celestial fox as his backer, he most likely also possessed a trump card at the Nascent Soul level.

Looking at it this way, the lineup that ambushed them this time is even more terrifying.

Without any pause, Bai Zichen released all the fourth-tier flying swords, focusing his mind solely on the Ziwei Dazzling Thunder Sword and the Avici Heavenly Prison Demon Sword.

After fully immersing themselves in the moment, the two swords burst forth with dazzling light. It was unclear whether their speed had increased or the auspicious energy had slowed them down.

It burst out in an instant and shot towards Old Man Hu, whose tail was trailing behind.

Old Hu, who thought he was safe after benefiting from the situation, was terrified. He frantically used every trick in the book.

Three talismans depicting the Great Mighty Dragon, a mirage pearl of spiritual treasure quality, and a Xuanwu crystal armor formed amidst the weeping incantations.

Swish!Swish!Swish!
Bai Zichen focused on controlling his two flying swords, abandoning any variations, and used the simplest sword path to strike.

With three light taps, the Ziwei Dazzling Thunder Sword tore apart the three Great Dragon Seal talismans, preventing them from even forming spells.

The Avici Heavenly Prison Demon Sword went straight for the center, and upon colliding with the Spirit Treasure-level Mirage Pearl, sent it flying hundreds of feet.

A fifth-tier flying sword is truly different; even before it has been refined, it gives one the illusion of being superior to all living beings.

Immediately, the two swords struck down together, and the Xuanwu Crystal Armor couldn't even withstand a single breath before splitting in half.

"I wish..."

Before Old Man Hu could finish speaking, the two sword holes between his eyebrows almost overlapped.

His eyes rolled back, and he plummeted to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

A fourth-tier superior-grade demon, facing off against a head-on battle, couldn't even withstand a single exchange!
Bai Zichen let out a soft exclamation, thinking that there would be a fierce battle, but he did not expect that Old Man Hu would perish without even using his Nascent Soul stage trump card.

Bai Zichen glanced at the colorful phoenix and white ape, who were already hundreds of miles away, took a deep breath, raised his twin swords, and unleashed another powerful strike.

In terms of burst speed, even a race like the Rainbow Phoenix, known for its flight, cannot compare to a fifth-tier flying sword.

When the colorful phoenix turned around and saw this scene, it let out a mournful cry. The tips of its seven-colored feathers turned red with blood and began to truly burn its source.

Each feather is the result of its arduous cultivation, and maintaining this state may result in the loss of several feathers in a single breath.

Over time, one might even fall from their current level, making it extremely difficult to climb back up.

The white ape suddenly leaped up, pounding its chest with both fists, its silvery-white fur standing on end, growing into a giant ape hundreds of feet tall, bravely blocking the two sword lights.

Swish!Swish!
Two suppressed, low roars were followed by two arms flying into the sky. The white ape's shoulders were bare, and its body swayed but did not fall.

With a flick of its claws, the colorful phoenix lifted the heavily injured white ape, and the two demons transformed into rays of light, leaping away at several times their previous speed.

Bai Zichen sheathed his twin swords, calmed his pounding heart, and abandoned the idea of ​​continuing the pursuit.

Six days and six nights of high-intensity operation, coupled with several consecutive all-out attacks, would be an extremely terrifying burden even with the Supreme Pure Micro Sword Box.

Leaving aside his true essence, the depletion of his mental energy alone left his sea of ​​consciousness in a state of chaos, constantly experiencing sharp, stabbing pain.

The speed at which Cai Feng flew by burning his source energy was far faster than when he wielded the Ziwei Dazzling Thunder Sword. Only by refining the Abyssal Prison Demon Sword into his natal flying sword could he possibly compete with it.

"That's not bad. Of the five demons who ambushed us, only two managed to escape... and both of them were wounded. If they didn't have Nascent Soul stage abilities, they would have died here."

Bai Zichen quickly cleaned up the battlefield, only to discover that Old Man Hu's spirit had secretly burrowed a hundred feet underground.

But since he discovered it, how could it possibly escape? It was also put into a gilded ancient jade bottle.

"After using up both Azure Emperor Longevity Swords, I had to hide them again and nurture the true meaning of time... But the gains were even greater. Putting aside the spoils of war, it would have been impossible for the Star River Sword Formation and the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Sword Technique to blend so well without such a fierce battle. It also made me realize what level my strength truly is when I exert my full power."

At his peak, Bai Zichen had enough confidence even if he was below the Nascent Soul stage.

Even if the Dragon Lord possesses a heaven-defying treasure, there are bound to be limitations in its use, similar to his Azure Emperor Longevity Sword.

Even a demon lord who has transformed into a god is still a towering tree that he can only look up to but never reach; he probably couldn't even withstand a single move from him.

This can be seen from the Nascent Soul transformation techniques triggered by the colorful phoenix and the white ape. Regardless of the amount of true essence, the difference in the level of the true meaning of the Great Dao alone is enough to crush them.

If it were those severely restricted, flickering candles among the human race's Nascent Soul cultivators, Bai Zichen might still have a chance to put up a fight.

But his target is a Nascent Soul Demon Lord who can act at will and has broken free from the constraints of the rules of heaven and earth.

Furthermore, even the Dragon Lord possesses a heaven-defying treasure, so it's illogical that the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons, Ao Laolong, doesn't have one.

He was still too weak to face the Nascent Soul Elder Dragon, and had to rely on several Nascent Soul powerhouses from the Moral Sect to hold the line.

"This time, the demon race suffered heavy casualties, equivalent to the human race losing three Great True Monarchs... Moreover, the white ape and the colorful phoenix, one lost both arms and still has my sword intent remaining in his body, and the other burned his source, so they must have gone at least ten thousand miles away before daring to stop. It's hard to say whether the two demons can maintain their current level after returning."

After Bai Zichen finished packing, he slowly flew towards Sword Mountain.

"It's a pity it's not in the Central Region, otherwise, with this record alone, the merits accumulated would be more than enough to exchange for a fourth-tier spiritual vein."

After this battle, he no longer expected to be able to hide his strength from the Dragon Lord.

What is certain is that the Dragon King will definitely not send his demon subordinates to their deaths again, and he himself may not even dare to come if the opportunity arises.

As long as Dragon Lord believes in the authenticity of this record, he will not think that the remnant of the Fish Dragon Sect is still a small guy who can be easily manipulated; it's just that he is hiding deep inland and it is not easy for Dragon Lord to take action against him.

If it wants to achieve its goal, it can only pin its hopes on Ao Laolong.

That depends on whether the Dragon Lord can resist the temptation of the sacred beast's blood and fully explain the whole story to Old Dragon Ao.

After sweeping through the Central Region, we will invite the Nascent Soul Demon Lord to appear and search the heavens and earth to completely annihilate Bai Zichen.

"There should be some peace and quiet for a while, but next time we might have to face a Nascent Soul Demon Lord head-on..."

Bai Zichen's joy at defeating a powerful enemy lasted only a moment before he was quickly returned to worrying about the future.

It's unrealistic to expect someone to grow to the level of someone who can contend with a Nascent Soul cultivator in such a short time. It seems I'll have to return to the Central Region and establish contact with the Moral Sect.

In this great calamity that is bound to sweep across every corner of the cultivation world, it is already difficult to remain unaffected.

Moreover, for someone like him, no matter how he tries to hide, he will always be closely watched by the demon race.

"The demon race has been eliminated. Brother Yan, you may request an audience with Bai Zichen at the Qingfeng Sect."

On Sword Mountain, they remained on high alert. They had certainly sensed Bai Zichen's battle with the five demons, but they absolutely did not have the courage to investigate further.

Not knowing who would win or lose, or whether the visitors were friend or foe, how could anyone dare to dismantle the formation?

After a long while, a clear voice came out: "Ancestor Yan is currently healing his injuries and is unable to go out to greet you. Please invite True Lord Bai into the mountain for a chat."

"can."

Bai Zichen glanced at the cave entrance slowly emerging from the summit of Sword Mountain, chuckled dismissively, and leaped inside.

After he entered, the formation quickly closed, and ripples of light fell.

The last time he set foot here was more than two hundred years ago. Without needing anyone to point the way, he walked straight towards the top of the mountain.

The Heavenly River Sword Sect has only one Nascent Soul True Monarch, whose aura fluctuates erratically and is chaotic, yet he provides clear guidance.

The disciples of the Tianhe Sword Sect saw them off respectfully, not only to show their deference but also because they were somewhat worried.

After all, his ancestor was seriously injured, and if a conflict were to break out, he would definitely not be a match for this sword cultivator who could drive away the Rainbow Phoenix Demon.

"For the sake of our sect, Fellow Daoist Bai traveled day and night to Northern Qi. I, Yan, am deeply grateful!"

A weary voice rang out from inside the White-Haired Hall.

"Brother Yan, you are too kind. I will always remember the care that Senior Tang and you took for me. I promised to help the Tianhe Sword Sect three times, so this little thing is nothing."

As Bai Zichen stepped into the palace, the light changed, and the seat where Tang Fei had sat more than two hundred years ago was now occupied by Yan Yuanzai.

It's been a long time; the leader of the Tianhe Sword Sect looks much older now.

I remember our first meeting was in the Valley of Burial Immortals. His unrestrained and unconventional sword cultivator appearance left a deep impression on me.

"The two things I am most proud of in my life are: first, that I was chosen by Xingyao to be her master and brought out of the Sword Tomb Secret Realm; and second, that I successfully transformed into a Nascent Soul and took over the sect after my uncle's passing, preventing the Sword Sect from falling into decline... But a thousand years later, what will be most talked about by future generations is my evaluation of you, fellow Daoist."

Yan Yuanzai had two wounds on his chest, and fresh blood was still seeping out, piling up on the ground.

"To be able to praise you as the number one swordsman since ancient times while you are still in the Foundation Establishment stage, who else in the world has such insight as me? Of course, it seems that this evaluation is still not enough. You are aiming to surpass the sword masters and sages of the Taibai Sword Sect."

"Brother Dao, you flatter me. The Nascent Soul Sword Lords of the Taibai Sword Sect have all made groundbreaking innovations in the development of swordsmanship. I am merely picking up scraps from their work. How can I compare to them?"

Bai Zichen sat down in the chair opposite him, which was obviously moved here temporarily by Yan Yuanzai. Otherwise, how could there be a seat in the Bai Shou Hall that was on equal footing with the Supreme Elder?

"I am trapped in Sword Mountain and cannot leave. It seems that there is a formation separating us and we cannot see clearly. With the Water Mirror Technique, I can only see the earth shaking and the sky changing color. But I feel that there is more than one demonic aura. Does that colorful phoenix have helpers?"

Yan Yuanzai straightened up and asked nervously.

If they merely drive away the colorful phoenix and then launch a counterattack after a while, with the help of other powerful demons, the Heavenly River Sword Sect might not be able to defend itself.

"Don't worry, the powerful demons are either dead or injured, and they will not be able to invade Sword Mountain again in the future."

Bai Zichen's tone was as casual as if he had simply brushed away a few insects.

"All resolved..."

Yan Yuanzai was so emotional that his wound almost reopened.

Bai Zichen spoke simply and did not elaborate on the strength of the other great demons, but just one colorful phoenix almost cost Yan Yuanzai his life.

The demon race that can be accompanied by such a powerful demon must be quite strong.

Bai Zichen, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, not only drove away the opponent but also managed to kill them, which was beyond his imagination.

Yan Yuanzai was at a loss for words. He had originally thought that Bai Zichen's arrival would make Caifeng back down.

Later, they joined forces with the Nascent Soul sects of the Northern Region to deal with this great demon.

After all, a demon beast equivalent to a Great True Monarch poses a tremendous threat to the sects of the Northern Region; it is a completely superior existence.
