Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 178 The Inner Demon Arrives
When Ying Xian heard the roar and the huge spiritual consciousness that poured into the formation, he knew that Wang Qianxi had escaped.

Trying hard to maintain the formation node in front of him, he hesitated in his heart:
"I wonder if Xuedan was successful?"

At the same time, sweat appeared on his forehead. Wang Qianxi had been fighting with him for the control of this part of the Galaxy Mirror Array.

After all, his cultivation was not as good as Wang Qianxi's, and he was also lacking in formation skills, so it was very difficult for him to resist.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind him. Ying Xian turned around and saw a strange face.

"Xuedan, you're finally here. Did you get the stuff?"

The latter was wearing green gauze, with her arms and shoulders exposed. She had a pretty face, black hair that fell to her waist, and fair skin with a hint of fluorescence.

There seemed to be starlight flashing in the black pupils:
"It's done!"

When I stretched out my hand, I saw that it was a hemisphere with some broken things like holes in it.

There was a hint of heat in Ying Xian's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

This thing is not something he can covet.

"Okay, with this magic core in hand, your recovery speed will be greatly improved.

"Our mission on this trip has been completed."

Xuedan smiled and looked at Ying Xian:

"How did you manage to take over the body of an old man, Koro? He doesn't have much time left to live, right?"

Ying Xian smiled bitterly, looking at Xuedan's young body with a hint of envy in his eyes:
“For this operation, I had no choice but to do it.

"You are quite lucky, Xuedan. As soon as you arrived, you were able to take over a young body, and your cultivation is not low."

Xuedan nodded:
“This person is the daughter of the elder of the Wang family. Her name is Wang Lixue. She is in the early stage of Jindan cultivation and has a top-grade single wood spiritual root. She is not bad.

"The important thing is that his father is the keeper of the royal family's treasury. It was just a coincidence that I ran into him..."

While the two were talking, Ying Xian's spiritual arms suddenly broke together, and the control of the formation was completely taken away by Wang Qianxi.

"As expected of a Nascent Soul, most of those demon cubs have probably escaped. I have done my best."

Pulling his own spiritual power back from the nodes of the formation, Ying Xian murmured:
"You go first. I have detected the aura of a high-level fellow tribesman. I need to go and take a look."

Xuedan looked puzzled:

"Same race?"

He had just been in the Wang family's cave treasure house and didn't notice much.

"Besides the two of us, how come there are other members of the Wang family?"

Should show shaking head:

"I don't know, so I'm going to check it out."

As he was speaking, Ying Xian had already walked out of the valley and found the body of a Wang family disciple who was at the foundation-building stage on the side of the road. His muscles twitched and in the blink of an eye he turned into an identical appearance to him.

The inner demons are not only good at taking over other people's bodies, but are also proficient in disguise.

"In that case, I will take the magic core and leave first."

After Xuedan said this, the fluorescent light on his body gradually faded, and he gradually became no different from an ordinary human being, and walked towards the edge of the Wang family's territory.

On the other side, Ying Xian fiddled with the corpse of the Wang family member, as if he wanted to get some information from the corpse.

……

"The Wang family can fight against Nascent Soul cultivators with this formation. This may not just be a rumor."

Wei Zhong looked at the "meteor shower" above his head and sighed.

These “meteors” are big and small, some are dim, some are bright, and their powers vary.

There are spells ranging from first-level to fourth-level, which are aimed at the human cultivators or the demons who are causing chaos within the Wang family.

At first glance, there are more than ten thousand "meteors" falling at the same time. If all this power is concentrated in one place, how terrifying would it be?
Hearing the endless screams beside him, Wei Zhong knew that the farce in the Wang family was finally over.

This formation is so powerful that no one can stop it, not even the offending demon.

Near Xingyun Peak, the formation that trapped Wang Yonghong and others has been lifted.

The Ice Flame Bird was suddenly in danger after losing the support of the formation.

Fortunately, the aftermath of the fight between several people had caused a lot of damage to the confinement formation below.

He withstood the attack from the three men, and the sharp claws under his feet emitted a cold blue light. He clawed downwards with force, and three chasms several miles long appeared instantly.

At the same time, the sound of birds singing was heard from below the chasm. A demon bird with blue feathers all over its body and most of its wings missing broke free from the formation and came out from below.

Seeing this, the Ice Flame Bird above was overjoyed, the spiritual power in its body surged wildly, and a blue and green demon pill spewed out of its mouth.

A huge spiritual pressure appeared at this moment.

"Not good, this evil beast is going to fight to the death."

As expected, along with the demon pill, there was also a cold magic spell.

It erupted from the Ice Flame Bird Demon Pill and spread out in all directions.

Once the rocks and trees were touched by the cold air, they were instantly turned into dust.

Even though Wang Yonghong and the other two were in the Nascent Soul stage, they had to cast spells to resist.

When the cold wave subsided, the Ice Flame Bird had already flown to the edge of the Galaxy Mirror Array in the sky with its children.

A small purple-gold cone emerged from the claws.

"A fourth-level forbidden cone? Why does the monster have this thing in its hand?"

Wang Yonghong's face changed. This kind of forbidden cone was a treasure of the utmost importance even in the Wang family, and it would be sealed in the first level of the cave treasure house.

The small purple-gold cone left a residual image and attached itself to the protective shield of the formation.

When the two touched, there was a deafening explosion, and the spiritual energy flowing nearby was dispersed by this attack, forming a brief spiritual vacuum.

Galaxy Mirror Array, no, it should be said that Wang Qianxi was instantly exhausted under this attack.

Wang Qianxi had already consumed most of her spiritual power and mental energy in trying to break free from the magic weapon's barrier.

After going out into the battle, in order to save the situation of the Wang family, he spared no effort to drive the fourth-order formation. His whole body was like a taut string, which would break instantly if a little more force was added.

And this forbidden cone was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The homemade array plate used to connect the array in Wang Qianxi's arms shattered instantly. With her mind connected, she spat out a mouthful of blood, and her breath instantly weakened.

Unable to maintain his position, he fell directly from mid-air...

"Elder!"

"..."

Fortunately, the few people who had besieged him before had been repelled by his Galaxy Mirror Formation, otherwise, given his current weak condition, their lives would be in danger.

Many people in the Wang family witnessed the fall of this Yuanying ancestor.

This also included Xuedan, who was holding the magic core. There was hesitation in his eyes, as if he was wondering whether to do something at this moment.

After thinking for a moment, he finally shook his head.

'At this moment, with the magic core in hand, no accidents can happen. Even if Wang Qianxi's Nascent Soul body is very attractive, you can't take risks.

"Besides, after this incident, my Heart Demon Clan has completely stood out. Those old guys of the human race might also be alarmed. It is too dangerous to take over Wang Qianxi's body at this moment."

Having thought of this, Xuedan turned and left.

The Galaxy Mirror Formation is half broken and there is no one in charge. If we don’t leave now, when will we leave?
"Escape?"

The two Ice Flame Birds flew away from the sky above Wang's house, and Wang Yonghong did not chase them. The two people around him asked:
"Brother Wang, do you want to chase?"

When Wang Yonghong was hesitating, he suddenly heard Wang Qingyun's voice:
"Oh no, ancestor, the purpose of these enemies may be..."

Wang Yonghong's expression suddenly changed, and he bowed to the two people beside him and said:
"This monster is good at flying, and its speed is even faster than ours. There is no need to chase it. I would like to trouble you two to help clean up the remaining invading soldiers from the Wang family. I have other important matters to attend to."

After leaving these words, Wang Yonghong stepped forward and turned into a ray of golden light and fled away.

Huiming and Che Kunlin were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

"The Wang family has lost something important!"

Huiming saw Wang Yonghong speaking impatiently and said this.

The Wang family was robbed this time in a strange way, and the other party seemed to be fully prepared.

Not only did he use the evil bird, but he also took advantage of the guests who visited the Wang family at this time. This caused chaos in the Wang family and took advantage of the situation.

Che Kunlin also thought so, but he didn't have much intention to explore it. He was concerned about the younger generation of the sect:
"Daoist friend Huiming, please go down and take a look around."

The latter nodded, and the two separated.

Wang Yonghong had not left far when a beam of light met him. It was Wang Qingyun who had escaped from the fight.

When Wang Qianxi was in control of the formation, the demons that were confronting her broke away and fled.

When Wang Qingyun saw the demons and figured out the secret, he informed Wang Yonghong.

The two of them flew to a towering mountain.

There are only a few thatched huts on this peak, and it is not as prosperous as other mountains.

Only some elderly monks from the clan live there, and to outsiders, there is nothing special about it.

No one knew that this place was the most important treasure house of the Wang family.

The old men living here are all Wang Yonghong’s most trusted clan members.

However, at this moment, these people were either injured or dead.

It seemed that only one or two people were left alive.

After taking out the elixir to keep the two men alive, they went deep into a cave on the mountain and took out a white jade ring, which they placed against the empty void.

A space crack opened up, with silver ripples on its edge, which was a manifestation of spatial instability.

The two of them did not hesitate and stepped into the crack at the same time.

A dazzling light flashed across the eyes of the two men. This place was the most important treasure house of the Wang family.

It is a special space based on the mountain here.

It was stabilized, transformed and refined by successive formation masters of the Wang family, and eventually formed into a unique cave paradise.

Although it is immovable and the space is very small, it is hidden and cannot be entered or exited without the Wang family's unique means. It is very safe to store secret treasures.

After the two of them checked along the cave, they finally found that only one of the protective formations had been broken and the secret treasure had been taken away, but there was no other loss.

"The incomplete magic core was stolen."

There was a hint of hostility on Wang Yonghong's face.

This item was accidentally obtained by the Wang family. Because it contains abundant spiritual power, the Wang family has been trying to use it to refine spiritual pills.

If it succeeds, the medicinal power of the elixir will be top-level fourth-grade, far beyond the soul-nourishing elixir.

This item will also become one of the opportunities for Wang Yonghong to move from the middle stage of the fourth level to the late stage and even break through to the fifth level.

But now the elixir has not yet been developed and it has been stolen. How can Wang Yonghong not be angry?

"It seems that our guess is correct. This incomplete magic core did come from a fourth- or fifth-level inner demon. It is of great significance to the demon race, otherwise they would not have gone to such great lengths to cause trouble to my Wang family in order to take this item away.

"It's a pity that we realized it too late, allowing them to take advantage of the opportunity."

Wang Qingyun looked regretful.

Wang Yonghong managed to calm down his emotions:
"The formation was damaged not long ago, so the demon must not have gone far. If we block the Wang family, we still have a chance to find it."

Wang Qingyun shook his head:
“Qianxi was severely injured by the backlash of the formation. Now there is no one who can preside over the Galaxy Mirror Formation. What can my Wang family use to prevent the demons from escaping?

“Besides, after all this time, I don’t know how far those demons have escaped.

"It's useless to stop them. The family is currently in turmoil, so the important thing is to appease the clan members and the guests."

Wang Qingyun spoke out to comfort him, and the ancestor of the Wang family also understood that what he said was true.

I had a lot of anger but nowhere to vent it. My fists were clenched tightly and my neck was red from the anger...

Songlong Hall,
Wei Zhong and others watched a "meteor shower". Although it only lasted for a few breaths, the chaos in the Wang family had been mostly quelled by it.

The invading enemies who did not have time to escape were surrounded and killed by the Wang family's disciples.

The monks who took advantage of the chaos in the Wang family to rob were also captured or killed by the Wang family disciples.

Wei Zhong and others had no intention of intervening in the Wang family's efforts to clean up the internal turmoil. They waited quietly in Songlong Hall for the situation in the Wang family to calm down completely.

"The Wang family has been severely damaged after this battle," Wanyan Fu said with emotion.

Xun Yangzi nodded in agreement:
“The Wang family originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of their patriarch’s advancement and even forming a Taoist couple with Senior Song to demonstrate the family’s strength.

“But unfortunately, we were targeted by the demons. Not only has the Wang family’s land been severely damaged, but we have also lost an unknown amount of spiritual stones.

"And because of this, our reputation has been greatly damaged. An accident can happen on such an important day. In the future, our name will not sound good in Yunzhou or even other places."

A Yuanying family could be bullied to such an extent. From now on, the descendants of the Wang family will be looked down upon by cultivators of the same level.

While the few of them were talking, Wang Bofeng on the side was looking at Peng Susu with concern.

The latter's face flushed, and he seemed a little embarrassed. His eyes wandered around, and suddenly he saw a familiar face at the foot of the mountain.

He patted Wang Bofeng on the shoulder, pointed at the man at the foot of the mountain and said:

“Bo Feng, isn’t that your cousin Bo Shang?”

Wang Bofeng followed his gaze and saw the familiar face.

"It's true. He was able to survive today while on duty in Luohuang Valley."

After saying this, he flew down the mountain.

Ying Xian fled all the way and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain where Songlong Temple was located. He was trying to find the aura of his fellow tribesmen when he suddenly saw a female cultivator pointing at him.

Then he saw a male cultivator flying down and coming in front of him:

"Brother Bo Shang, I didn't expect that you could escape this disaster while guarding Luohuang Valley today."

Ying Xian searched through the corpse's fragmentary memories and barely pieced together the identity of the person in front of him. He smiled and said:

“Luckily, I escaped among a group of corpses.

"Speaking of which, my brother is luckier. During this family turmoil, even his robes were not damaged much."

"Ugh……"

Wang Bofeng took Ying Xian's shoulder naturally and familiarly and pulled him towards Songlong Hall.

Along the way, he talked about his own escape experience, and his face was beaming with joy when he talked about the exciting parts.

"Look, that's Senior Wei who saved me from danger. Not only is he highly skilled, he's also a fourth-rank weapon refiner..."

Ying Xian looked in the direction it pointed, saw Wei Zhong's face, and sensed a trace of lingering inner demon aura.
