Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 825 Old acquaintance
The top experts of the Dao Ning World seemed to be nothing more than child's play in front of that Ancestor Yun Ao.

Even though everyone was seriously injured and retreated, he did not pursue them, completely disregarding them.

At this point, everyone was indeed disheartened after suffering this blow.

This team, which already lacked cohesion, fell apart in an instant.

The old monk had to consider the future of the Bodhi Holy Land, and so did the Confucian scholar of Junshan.

Fu Qu rode the nine-colored deer back to Yunshan Academy.

Chen Wang was still activating the Four Symbols Formation, and was in the process of comprehending the Dao.

Fu Qu sighed and sat down dejectedly on a nearby bluestone.

Soon, Xu Yun and the others arrived. Xu Yun asked, "Sister Fu Qu, what happened?"

Fu Qu's eyes were somewhat unfocused, as if she were having an internal struggle. Xu Yun called her several times before she was finally awakened.

Fu Qu said, "Previously, I and a few old monks from the Bodhi Holy Land planned to enter the Great Chu Imperial City to assassinate someone. However, even with the protection of the Mirror God, we were still discovered. That person attacked us from a distance and injured us. It took several of us working together to escape. The difference in strength was too great; we couldn't fight at all."

Fu Qu's face was a little pale; even though she was usually proud, she was somewhat disheartened at this moment.

Xu Yun said, "Then what should we do?"

Fu Qu said, "If Chen Wang were not in the process of enlightenment, or if his enlightenment was shallow, we might be able to discuss things with him if we forcibly woke him up. But now he has been in the process of enlightenment for several years, and the Four Symbols Formation has been under refinement. If we forcibly wake him up, we may harm his life. We have no choice but to stay in the academy for the time being."

Fu Qu and the others then realized that the situation was extremely perilous. Chen Wang had always been the one to hold the line, but now that he was in seclusion to comprehend the Dao, and such a powerful enemy had appeared in the Dao Ning World, they couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

Fu Qu said, "There's not much we can do right now. Faced with such a master, and with no one in the Dao Ning world who can lead the heroes and form an effective counterattack, we can only wait like a flock of lambs to the slaughter, waiting for others to come and kill us."

Fu Qu was always arrogant, but he said these words at this moment, which shows how much he was hurt.

It was astonishing that the group had to work together to withstand the opponent's attack earlier.

Faced with such terrifying power, there was no room for resistance, and no amount of conspiracy or trickery could be conceived.

Several days later, the destiny of the Great Chu was completely refined.

Yunshan Academy is very close to the Great Chu, bordering it.

Soon, Ancestor Yun'ao led his group to Yunshan Academy.

The other major powers had already lost the will to resist and were barely able to protect themselves, so they were naturally powerless to resist.

After arriving here, Ancestor Yun'ao scanned the area with his divine sense and found Chen Wang in Yunshan Academy.

Immediately, his figure appeared near Chen Wang.

The same applies to the other six powerful individuals.

A deep hatred flashed in the eyes of Ancestor Yun'ao. Last time, it was Chen Wang who provoked him and even threatened to kill him.

Ancestor Yun'ao had a deep impression of Chen Wang. This time, he went down to the mortal realm at all costs, not only to collect resources, but also to deal with Chen Wang, his rival.

He sneered, "Now that I'm down here, what can you do to me?"

Fu Qu suddenly opened his eyes, took a step forward, and his aura instantly rose to its peak.

Xu Yun, who was cultivating nearby, also stood beside her.

Fu Qu said loudly, "This is the human world, and we will not tolerate your insolence. If you know what's good for you, leave now!"

Upon hearing this, Ancestor Yun'ao laughed loudly: "A mere dragon girl, yet she speaks with such boundless arrogance. Do you still call the shots in this mortal realm? Wake up!"

The burly man beside him laughed loudly and maliciously, "Master, I happen to be lacking a Daoist partner. This woman is arrogant and boastful. Why don't you bestow her upon me, Master?"

Master Yun'ao glanced at the burly man and said with a smile, "Subduing the Dragon Girl and marrying her would be a wonderful thing, but you'll have to rely on your own abilities to do it."

The burly man laughed loudly, "Of course! If I didn't have the skills to subdue dragons, how would I dare to ask the patriarch for such an advantage?"

He glanced at the other immortals from the Great Flame Heaven, cupped his hands, and said, "Fellow Daoists, I will not take the other treasures, I only wish to marry this dragon girl. I hope you will all make way."

The old man in green laughed and said, "Hong Tiangang, you have quite the nerve. Fine, I'll give you this Dragon Girl. My old bones can't handle her."

The others also joined in the banter.

Hong Tiangang stepped forward and looked at Fu Qu, saying, "Once a dragon enters the Integration Stage, he can awaken some of the supernatural powers in his bloodline. I suppose you have learned some as well. Why don't you go all out? If I can't defeat you within ten moves, I will no longer mention the matter of marriage."

Fu Qu frowned and said coldly, "You're courting death!"

Her beautiful face was contorted with anger.

At that moment, she immediately struck out with her palm, and a Vajra Dragon Claw appeared in the void, fiercely attacking Hong Tiangang with an extremely powerful aura.

Hong Tiangang laughed loudly, and his body moved instantly, throwing a punch at the Vajra Dragon Claw.

His fist was heavy and fast. Just a moment ago, his blood and qi were boiling, surging like the sea. Fu Qu's supernatural power was broken by him in one move.

Fu Qu's arm went numb, and he charged forward again, kicking Hong Tiangang in the neck at close range.

Her leg lashed out like a giant python.

Hong Tiangang was kicked in the neck by her and staggered back several steps.

Hong Tiangang exclaimed, "Excellent skills, exceptional combat awareness."

At this moment, Hong Tiangang turned his neck, and his whole body made crackling sounds, like a thunderstorm.

Then he attacked Fu Qu!
At this moment, Fu Qu kicked him in the groin, an extremely insidious and swift move that created a sharp whistling sound.

Hong Tiangang dodged past, feeling a chill in his groin. Startled, he forced a smile and said, "Are you trying to make me childless? That won't do."

Fu Qu cursed, "Go to hell!"

She had a fiery temper and could no longer suppress the murderous intent in her heart. She pushed her dragon power to the limit and attacked Hong Tiangang.

She extended two fingers directly, aiming for Hong Tiangang's eyes.

Fu Qu chose to quickly defeat Hong Tiangang through close combat.

However, Hong Tiangang, who seemed extremely rude among the group, actually made a truly earth-shattering move.

The others had never seen Hong Tiangang make a move before, and they were secretly shocked when they saw it. Even Ancestor Yun Ao's eyes lit up.

Although I had heard that Hong Tiangang was a master of the demon race, I did not know his background. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary.

Hong Tiangang was born with profound knowledge and skills, and once he entered the Integration Stage, he had an overwhelming advantage.

However, the Tribulation Transcending Stage is another realm altogether.

During the Tribulation Transcending Stage, the racial advantage diminishes considerably, unless one is an exceptionally powerful super divine beast.

At this moment, Hong Tiangang and Fu Qu quickly exchanged five or six blows, and Fu Qu was unable to do anything to him. However, it was also somewhat difficult for Hong Tiangang to capture Fu Qu.

Master Yun'ao smiled and said, "Hong Tiangang, if you can't subdue her within ten moves, your wife might run away."

He deliberately made sarcastic remarks, wanting to test Hong Tiangang's strength.

Hong Tiangang was also getting anxious. This dragon girl from the lower realm was much more powerful than he had imagined.

At this moment, Hong Tiangang revealed his true form: a black boar the size of a house appeared, its bristles like steel needles, its tusks incredibly sharp, and its eyes like copper bells, all a deep red. Once he revealed his true form, he was as large as a mountain, and his roar could be heard as the wind.

In order to quickly subdue the dragon girl, they did not make the size of the dragon girl its largest.

Even so, he took a step forward and rammed into him. Fu Qu was immediately sent flying backward, tumbling several times in the air before falling to the ground, spitting out blood repeatedly.

Hong Tiangang's true form was filled with demonic energy and extremely malevolent aura. Although he was a pig demon, he should not be underestimated.

Fu Qu was a dragon girl, a real dragon, yet she was still knocked away by him.

Hong Tiangang was extremely pleased with himself at this moment.
So what if he's a pig demon? He'll use a pig to subdue a dragon!

However, Fu Qu immediately stood up, revealing her true dragon form. Her dragon aura was extremely powerful, and with a roar, she created a special sonic wave that suppressed Hong Tiangang.

Hong Tiangang slowed down, his head spinning, but he quickly shook off the effects of the groan and strode forward.

Neither side's powerful figures were currently engaged in a chaotic battle, and Nine-Colored Deer, Xu Yun, and others were on high alert.

If Fu Qu is truly in danger, they will do anything to help, even if it means getting caught up in a chaotic battle.

However, at this moment, everyone was still in a standoff, holding their breath and observing the battle.

Fu Qu and Hong Tiangang fought fiercely.

However, at this moment, Hong Tiangang charged again, sending Fu Qu flying.

Fu Qu's dragon scales were shattered and he was covered in blood. He didn't get up immediately after being hit.

Hong Tiangang exclaimed, "The child we have will surely improve my bloodline! It's wonderful, wonderful!"

After saying that, he was about to pounce on her.

Just then, Xu Yun suddenly made his move. His sword light was incredibly sharp, and the blade contained a cluster of stars. He swung his sword down.

Hong Tiangang frowned slightly, sensing the extraordinary nature of the sword, and was forced back by it.

A sword beam carved a hundred-foot-long ravine into the ground, cleaving open the back mountain as well.

Xu Yun said loudly, "Are the people of the Great Yan Heaven so rude?"

Hong Tiangang, panting heavily, was furious that his good deed had been ruined. He said coldly, "Little brat, get out of the way right now, or I'll smash you into a pulp."

Xu Yun coldly said, "The people from the Great Yan Heaven are nothing special. They are crude and unreasonable. If you want to fight, then come at me!"

Xu Yun could see that these people were probably all highly skilled and difficult to resist, but the more this was the case, the less willing she was to back down.

At this moment, Xu Yun, the Nine-Colored Deer, and the Mirror God all released their auras.

The experts from Yunshan Academy also gathered around, and the Nascent Soul stage cultivators joined forces to activate the great formation to fight against these powerful figures from the Great Flame Heaven.

Master Yun'ao smiled slightly and said, "You lowly commoners are like mantises trying to stop a chariot, overestimating yourselves. Did you learn this from your abbot?"

The moment the aura emanating from Ancestor Yun'ao was released, everyone felt an immense increase in pressure, making it almost impossible to maintain the operation of the formation.

The aura emanating from Master Yun'ao was so oppressive that everyone could hardly breathe.

The powerful figures around him also activated their cultivation techniques, their bodies shrouded in various Daoist landscapes, leaving everyone speechless.

These people possess extraordinary skills, which ordinary lower-level experts cannot withstand.

At this moment, Ancestor Yun'ao looked at Mirror God and said indifferently, "It's been a long time, fellow Daoist. I never thought you would be reduced to a junior's servant."

The atmosphere was tense, with swords drawn and a great battle about to break out. Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat moved.

Fu Qu also looked at the Mirror God, his brows furrowing.

The Mirror God and this person seem to be old acquaintances.

At this moment, the Mirror God said in a deep voice, "Who are you? I don't know you."

Ancestor Yun'ao's eyes flashed with a sharp light, then he smiled and said, "So that's how it is. What did you experience? Why did you lose part of your memory?"

Everyone fell silent. Even the Mirror God himself was somewhat surprised, frowning as he asked, "What are you talking about? You know me? What memories have I lost?"

Master Yun'ao smiled faintly: "If you are willing to become my magic weapon and serve me, then I can tell you."

The Mirror God roared, "Nonsense! A loyal minister does not serve two masters, and a virtuous woman does not marry two husbands. How could I possibly switch allegiance to you again?"

Ancestor Yun'ao smiled faintly, flicked his finger, and a stream of light shot through the air, causing the Mirror God to tremble violently, as if it were about to crack.

A look of disappointment appeared in Ancestor Yun'ao's eyes. He sighed and said, "Not only have you lost some of your memories, but you haven't even found your original body. What a pity."

Xu Yun stared wide-eyed at the Mirror God, realizing he had quite a background.

The Mirror God was in so much pain that he was shivering. Although his cultivation had greatly increased, he was still no match for Ancestor Yun'ao.

At this moment, the Mirror God unleashed his full power, and a beam of white light shone out, freezing one of them in place.

While he was talking with Ancestor Yun'ao, the Mirror God remained terrifyingly cunning and chose one of them.

The next moment, Xu Yun appeared behind that person like a ghost.

Before the powerful cultivator from the Great Flame Heaven could react, Xu Yun's sword flashed, and countless stars, carrying a misty aura, slashed down. The man was startled, but was immediately disemboweled by this sword.

Xu Yun's sword light spun, transforming into a blue lotus, incredibly sharp, aiming to slay the man.

However, after Master Yun'ao snorted coldly, Xu Yun's face turned pale, and he swayed as if he were drunk, and the Haotian Divine Sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

Master Yun'ao calmly said, "I haven't finished speaking yet. We were catching up. Why are you making a move? Don't you know your place?"

With each word he spoke, Xu Yun took a step back. As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yun felt as if he had been struck by an invisible hammer, coughing up blood and flying backward.

A Tribulation Transcending Stage expert, and a Tribulation Transcending Stage expert from the Great Yan Heaven, extremely terrifying.

At this moment, Xu Yun looked up, his head feeling as if it were about to split open, as his three souls and seven spirits had all suffered varying degrees of damage.

Master Yun'ao had just used some special supernatural power to suppress her.

Xu Yun struggled to his feet and managed to stand up.

Master Yun'ao's face was somewhat cold as he said, "Are there really such unruly people in this rural area? I'll kill you first as a warning to others."

At this moment, he wanted to demonstrate his martial prowess. With a flick of his finger, a streak of light shot through the void.

Xu Yun had no time to react and was about to perish.

However, at this moment, the four large flags suddenly moved against the wind, turning into several streaks of light to meet that divine power.

The illusory images of the Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, Vermilion Bird, and White Tiger on the four banners were instantly pierced and shattered.

However, with just these four magical treasures, they actually managed to block the supernatural power of a Tribulation Transcending stage expert.

Master Yun'ao frowned deeply at this moment.

Chen Wang emerged from beneath the four gates of the great formation, his aura unchanged, but his gaze was chillingly cold. He said calmly, "Who do you want to kill?"
