Chapter 1182 The Battle of the Bull Whip, the Heavenly Talisman Array
Ding!
The rhinoceros demon's enormous head wobbled, and its iron beak pecked at the blunt horn on the tip of its nose. Even so, it howled in pain and almost cried out in tears.

"What kind of monster dares to attack this sacred beast?"

When it went berserk and furious, the entire space passage trembled, waterfalls stopped flowing and lakes surged, instantly creating a huge wave. The air was filled with bright space particles, like tiny sand pellets flying in all directions!
The Demon Dog Lord, who was in pain and almost riddled with holes, yelped and quickly shrunk his size, tucked his tail between his legs and fled to Lin Shan and Lin Fan's side.

Chicken Bro spread its wings that reach the sky, its colorful chicken breast bulging as if showing off its powerful muscles, and its eyes shot out Taibai Golden Flames, which burned the entire void and began to distort!
The rhinoceros demon was caught off guard by the five-colored divine light, its clumsy movements preventing it from moving freely. It could only watch as the other demon whizzed past, while it spun its top at it with all its might.

Who do you think will win?

While watching the match, Lin Shan asked Lin Fan for his opinion. Neither of the brothers was in a hurry, and they began to offer their comments.

"Hard to say."

Lin Fan watched intently as this unique civil war among the demon race unfolded. The hand-to-hand combat was filled with violence, and supernatural powers were constantly being unleashed.

"Judging from the current situation, Brother Chicken seems to have the upper hand, but that's only because he seized the initiative by surprise, and his opponent has been fighting for many days."

"No matter what, the opponent is at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, two minor stages ahead in terms of cultivation level, and has spent far more time cultivating their physical body. Once we get close, we still can't withstand it head-on."

"However, we have the advantage in magic. That ox is clumsy and not nearly as agile as Brother Chicken, and why hasn't it used its supernatural powers after dozens of moves?"

Lin Shan smiled and looked towards the center of the battlefield. He waved his hand and created a barrier to resist the endless spatial particles, pointing towards the rhinoceros demon's broken horn.

"Because its horn, which allows it to unleash its supernatural powers, was destroyed, it can't use its innate abilities in combat. Otherwise, why do you see its eyes are so blood-red?"

Lin Fan suddenly realized what was going on and couldn't help but marvel.

"This guy's horn is probably the hardest thing in the world. Who could possibly break it! The cut surface is so smooth and flat, it looks like it was cut by a sharp sword?"

At this moment, Lord Demon Dog sneaked up to the two of them and finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still a little shaken.

"Lin boy, you've finally arrived! How's it going with the Ancient Seeking Sect? Have you finished dealing with them?"

"Hmm, it's nothing."

Lin Shan glanced at the guy sideways. He was covered in wounds, showing how hard the rhinoceros demon had hit him. He was almost killed and looked miserable.

"I tried to contact you using a communication device, why didn't you respond?"

The Demon Dog Lord lay down beside them with annoyance, sticking out his pink tongue to lick his wounds.

"Having been constantly fleeing from spatial turbulence, do you think I could receive your signals?!"

"Yes, that makes sense."

Communication artifacts are not omnipotent; they can be blocked in a few situations, such as ancient secret realms, spatial arrays, not to mention spatial turbulence.

If Lord Demon Dog insists on going to a place with no signal, then it's indeed impossible to contact him.

Fortunately, Lin Shan was kind enough to come all the way to save it; otherwise, it would have died without knowing why.

This dog wasn't stupid; it knew that it was being targeted by Penglai and that the Xun Gu Sect was in even greater danger, so it ran in the opposite direction, deliberately not rushing to join Linshan.

Instead, they headed north, intending to find the great demon Qu Gong!
It knew that the guy was fishing in the North Sea, so it kept rushing through the spatial turbulence. Unfortunately, a waterfall cliff suddenly appeared and blocked its way. It didn't have time to change direction and was caught up by the rhinoceros demon again.

At this moment, he glanced at Lin Fan beside him and Chicken Bro, who was still fiercely battling on the field.

"Have you finished dealing with things in the Luosong Mountains area as well?"

"No, the Luosong Mountains have fallen."

Lin Fan became depressed when he talked about this, and he slumped his head and sighed deeply.

"What? That Red Lotus Ancestor?"

"."

No answer is an answer. Lord Demon Dog's pupils contracted slightly, and he wisely refrained from asking any further questions.

Meanwhile, the battle had reached a fever pitch, and the two sides gradually regained the balance. Chicken Brother gradually felt the difficulty in the process of fighting the rhinoceros demon. The opponent's thick skin and tough flesh refreshed its understanding. Simply put, it had high physical and magical resistance, even thicker than the Demon Dog Lord!
If it weren't for the broken horn and the loss of its most powerful attacking ability, it would have been a very troublesome situation.

Often, when the claws strike, they only leave a tiny white mark, without even breaking the skin.

Only a sharp tongue can be effective, but once the chicken's head is locked, the opponent may kill it with a single blow!
As the fight progressed, the rhinoceros demon realized that the chicken on the other side was the complete opposite of itself, a fragile creature with high attack but low health, unable to withstand even a single hit from it.

"Hmph, little chick, don't waste your time. I, Old Cow, can make countless mistakes, but you only have one! Don't give me the chance to kick your balls away with one hoof!"

"Ooh ooh ooh~~~"

Chicken Bro was furious. How could everyone call him a little chick? Why is this stereotype so deeply ingrained in this world?
Other chickens are weak chickens, but I am a descendant of the Pleiades Star Lord!
and also
"I hate it when people mention the word 'eggs.' I'll say it again: I'm a rooster, I don't lay eggs!!!"

"What's the difference?"

The rhinoceros spirit was completely bewildered, still unable to distinguish between male and female hens; it simply imitated others' calls and said it casually.

But the rooster opposite flapped its wings and pulled out a broken bowl from its crop, shook out the messy chaff inside, and flew over to slam it onto its head!
"You damn bull, today I'll show you my treasure."

"cut"

The rhinoceros demon didn't take it seriously at first. He thought that the little broken bowl was just a rice container that couldn't even cover his own ears, so what use could it be?

But unexpectedly, this thing was incredibly strange. It suddenly grew countless times larger and instantly covered the bull's head, making the bull blind!
"Waaah, what's that?"

The rhinoceros demon was terrified and kept shaking its head, trying to get rid of the broken bowl, but its four legs couldn't reach it no matter what it did. The thing was like a tight headband, tightening its grip more and more.

"Stupid ox, die!"

Chicken Bro took the opportunity to get close and used his iron beak to pierce one bloody hole after another on the other's body. The other rolled around in the air in pain, and the blood stained the area below the waterfall red.

The rhinoceros demon danced wildly, even pulling out an unknown large bone from its pocket and using it as a club to smash the broken bowl on its head.

"Bang bang bang bang bang~~~"

Lin Shan, Lin Fan, and the Demon Dog Lord watched from a distance with wide eyes as a bull kept banging away and a chicken jumped around nearby.

In the end, the rhinoceros demon couldn't take it anymore, mainly because Lin Shan was putting too much pressure on it from a distance. It had no intention of lingering any longer and actually ran away with the broken bowl on its head!

It plunges headlong into the spatial turbulence, intending to escape downstream.

"Want to run?"

Chicken Bro relentlessly pursued, transforming into a sharp arrow that pierced straight behind.

"We've had enough of this show."

Fearing that the creature would escape again, Lin Shan threw it out of the Yuanjie Wind Corridor, trapping the bewildered rhinoceros demon inside. Various illusions appeared one after another, and the rhinoceros immediately became quiet and obedient.

Chicken Bro wanted to go in and kill him, but unexpectedly, he heard a voice begging for mercy coming from inside.

"Master Lin, please don't kill me! Make this chicken stop! I admit defeat!"

"Oh? I don't think I asked you to submit, did I?"

Lin Shan smiled and looked inside. This rhinoceros demon was no pushover either, hopping around in and out of the Ghost Valley Holy Land. The reason he hadn't bothered with it before was because he thought that since it was a guardian beast of the mountain, it could help Qian Bu guard the holy land.

Unexpectedly, after escaping from the cage, he joined forces with Penglai to lure him into a trap, and he almost fell into their trap!
Now look what's happened. They don't dare to oppose me, but instead help my mortal enemy hunt down my allies, which is tantamount to aiding and abetting evil.

Such a troublesome brat must be killed! "To be honest, whether you submit or not is irrelevant. The main thing is that I'm eyeing that bull's penis between your legs. If steamed and then stir-fried, it would surely be a great tonic."

"What???"

With a broken bowl on its head and its eyes covered, the rhinoceros demon only felt a chill in its crotch. Its originally thick bullwhip instantly shrank, and it uncomfortably clenched its hind legs.

"It's a misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding! My humble whip is nothing more than half of what Master Lin has, how could it be worthy of being called a great tonic!"

Lin Fan, the foodie, chimed in from the side, his words laced with a sinister smile.

"Brother, I think this stuff would be even better with chili powder, cumin powder, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds and chopped green onions after it's cooked!"

"Excellent, excellent. I, Your Majesty, will also need to replenish myself then."

The Demon Dog Lord also stuck out his big tongue, drooling with envy.

The rhinoceros demon was so frightened that it ran around wildly in the Yuan Realm corridor, mooing incessantly.

"The idea that eating bull penis can enhance male virility is a rumor, a complete and utter rumor. As a bull myself, how could I not know that?"

"You know shit!"

Chicken Brother kept spitting fire from its eyes, and while chasing after it, it even burned the bull's whip, seemingly intending to roast it while it was still alive.

Lin Fan and the Demon Dog Lord's eyes lit up. The thought of tasting the bull penis of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator made their mouths water. This could be considered the most delicious dish in this world!

I'm just asking you if it's hard or not!
If they can enjoy wine and song, they can be considered to have truly enjoyed themselves.

The rhinoceros demon was so frightened it almost cried out. It had been imprisoned in the Ghost Valley Holy Land for 20,000 years, living in a daze in the darkness, forcibly locked in its essence to prolong its hibernation, just waiting for an opportunity to break free of its shackles.

No one knows the bitterness in its heart!
Compared to the suffering of the Red Lotus Ancestor and the Jade Star God Lord who were sealed for ten thousand years, it is twice as much, equivalent to the sum of the two.

Now that they've finally escaped their predicament and are roaming freely in the world, it's only been a few days before they're about to be finished. Who could stand that?

"Master Lin, spare me! I'm willing to be your slave, serving you hand and foot! Do you need a mount? I'll follow your lead for the rest of my life!"

"Too late. I already acquired a mount a while ago, the horse you mentioned!"

Lin Shan released the Zouwu Venerable. Compared to such a magnificent steed, the rhinoceros demon looked far too ugly. As the saying goes, "A silver saddle shines on a white horse, swift as a shooting star." Have you ever seen a young master ride an ox when he goes out?
But he didn't want it, while several others nearby were instantly tempted!
Mount?

A mount for the late-stage Yuan Shen realm?
Lin Fan and Demon Dog Lord immediately snapped to attention and hurriedly offered to snatch it up, wishing they could have it for themselves.

"Yes, I want it!"

"No, give it to me!"

What are you all arguing about?

Chicken Brother roared and howled to the sky.

"This ox will be my mount from now on, and no one can take it away!"

"What??"

The rhinoceros demon was displeased. He could tolerate being Lin Shan's mount, but being a chicken's mount would be a huge disgrace, making him a laughingstock and the talk of the world.

"No, no, I want to give Leader Lin a mount."

"What, are you being treated like this by being the Pleiades Star Lord?"

In the dimensional corridor, Chicken Brother began pecking at the broken bowl again, making the rhinoceros demon's head buzz and causing him unbearable suffering in the illusion.

The Zouwu Venerable was dumbfounded. He was a little unaccustomed to being released. When he saw that there were four Nascent Soul stage cultivators around him, all of them in their original forms, he was so scared that he almost ran away.

"Stop right there! We're all family here. You don't still think you're a free agent, do you?"

Hearing Lin Shan's reprimand, it finally came to its senses. Recalling its predicament, having long since become someone else's mount, it drooped its head listlessly.

Lin Fan's eyes were practically green with envy!

"Brother, is this your new mount? It's so magnificent!"

Upon hearing this, the Zouwu Venerable immediately began to proudly sway from side to side, shaking the mane behind his neck, and ready to lift his hind legs at any moment, ready to kick up any man who dared to touch his rear end.

Lin Fan's hand hovered in mid-air, unsure whether to touch it or not, so he could only smile awkwardly, his gaze involuntarily drifting towards the Demon Dog Lord.

The latter was very alert:
"What do you want to do?"

"My cousin has a mount, and Brother Chicken will soon have one too, but I don't yet."

"Woof! Woof! Woof!"

The gorilla lunged at him with its massive jaws, and the Demon Dog Lord, enraged, exploded at the slightest provocation. Lin Fan, being mischievous, started rubbing the dog's head, and the two unknowingly began to wrestle together.

After a lot of trouble.

The rhinoceros demon was driven mad by the illusion, and its strength was exhausted in the Yuanjie Wind Corridor. The broken bowl on its head was finally thrown off, but Brother Chicken had already stepped on it.

"Become my mount, and I'll spare your life!"

"Don't even think about it, little chick."

As the saying goes, a demon can be killed but not humiliated. The stubborn rhinoceros demon was also in a bad mood. Even when facing death, he refused to be humiliated, which made Brother Chicken so angry that he was about to kill him.

"Wait a minute!"

Lin Shan stepped forward, retrieved the Heavenly Treasure, and came to the man's side.

"Let me ask you, what benefits did the Penglai Holy Land offer you that made you work so hard for them?"

"It's nothing, just a boundary-breaking talisman."

A boundary-breaking talisman?
Exhausted, the rhinoceros demon was too lazy to beat around the bush, so he simply confessed everything, revealing a shocking secret.

"The Holy Lord of Penglai possesses extraordinary talent and has long since mastered both the Grandmaster of Talismans and the Grandmaster of Arrays, forging a path of the ancient legendary 'Talisman Array' and refining a Boundary-Breaking Talisman that can assist in ascension!"

"This talisman is a miniaturized combination of three sixth-order void arrays, all encompassed within a sixth-order Heavenly Spirit Talisman. It can provide a boost during ascension and breakthrough, greatly ensuring the safety of ascension. It is very suitable for cultivators like me in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm."

"Tell me, if you were in my shoes, and the other party made this condition, would you accept it?"

Lin Shan and the others were shocked!

I never expected that Penglai Holy Land would have such methods. If they could mass-produce boundary-breaking talismans, wouldn't the number of people ascending from the lower realm increase dramatically?

Compared to the empty promises made by the Fairy of the Green Lotus, the conditions offered by the Penglai Holy Land are much more reliable!

In that case, it's understandable why all the aquatic creatures of the East Sea mobilized.

With such a significant incentive, it is perfectly logical that they would be willing to follow Penglai's orders!

"Master Lin, if you want it, I can go undercover and get it for you. Then we'll destroy Penglai and loot all the Boundary-Breaking Talismans. What do you say?"

That rhinoceros demon is incredibly audacious; despite being a prisoner, he actually offered Lin Shan a plan!
