Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 694 A Fight to the Death
Yellow smoke rolled out like a tide.

Before he could even breathe, the sky was already dyed with yellow, creating the scene of "yellow sky".

The eight ferocious beasts realized that something was wrong because of the urgency of the attack, but it was too late to withdraw. They could only roar and prepare to fight back.

Yellow smoke poured up, and only the sound of boiling hot oil could be heard. The eight ferocious beasts howled in pain, their spiritual power was almost melted away, and they fled in panic.

This is also the pros and cons of the Eight Evil Diagrams. Preserving the instinctive reactions of the ferocious beasts can certainly greatly improve their combat effectiveness, but it will also face the problem of "failing" at critical moments.

Jiang Zhengchu frowned upon seeing this, and became even more afraid to touch the inexplicable yellow smoke. He took out a Lingrun Wind Talisman and stuck it on the corner of his robe. Suddenly, a breeze came from his body, blowing away all the yellow smoke that was surrounding him.

He has already taken countermeasures, so how could Chen Mu waste the opportunity?

He hung the topaz gourd in the air, then a silver light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately reached out and pointed.

"Crack!"

A loud thunder shook the sky, breaking the sky and the universe!

The bodies of the eight ferocious beasts all shook. When they were alive, they were more or less not afraid of thunder magic, but after turning into souls, they were no longer as brave as before.

The golden bird was about to spread its wings and escape from the range of the thunder, but Chen Mu's target was it, so how could it escape so easily?

A wisp of green wind swirled up and immediately wrapped around the golden bird's body.

The golden bird was horrified and cried out in terror, but the lightning struck it down in an instant, shattering its essence in the blink of an eye, and it disappeared into smoke...

Jiang Zhengchu's face darkened. He was surprised at how difficult Chen Mu was to deal with, and was also a little disappointed with the Eight Evil Diagrams.

The golden bird, one of the eight evil creatures, had been killed three times since the beginning of the war. He had not achieved any success and instead had wasted a lot of his energy.

But the key point is that in order to maintain the current situation, the Eight Evils are indispensable, so he needs to expend his spiritual power again to manifest the golden bird...

However, he also knew that this was not because of the Eight Evil Diagrams, but because Chen Mu... was too exaggerated.

Not only does he possess immense magical power, he also possesses a wide range of Taoist techniques, and has magical treasures to back him up...

Any one of these can make a cultivator stand out from others, let alone all three combined in one?
His eyes flickered continuously, and as he transformed into a golden bird, he murmured, "I just don't believe you won't have a time of demise!"

Chen Muzi didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know what Jiang Zhengchu was thinking, but he could guess most of it.

Just as he thought, there would come a time when his magical powers would run out.

He used Taoist magic and the magic gourd one after another. Even though he had achieved the ninth level of Nascent Soul, he still felt that his magic power was consumed a lot.

But he will have his end, doesn’t Jiang Zhengchu have it too?

He didn't believe that Jiang Zhengchu was also at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, and the Eight Evil Diagrams consumed a lot of spiritual energy, so it was impossible for him to last longer than him.

And when it weakens, it will be time for him to unleash his killing moves...

For a moment, the two of them had surprisingly similar ideas, and they were deadlocked again as if they were competing with each other.

As the battle continued for a long time, the people outside gradually noticed some differences in Chen Mu.

Jiang Zhengchu would occasionally swallow elixirs to gather his spiritual energy, but Chen Mu rarely did so.

This simply means two things: one is that Chen Mu still has enough magic power; the other is that he must have some special spiritual object on him that can ensure his magic power is safe for the time being.

The latter is not a big deal. After all, although special spiritual objects are precious, they are not so rare in Central China.

If it was the former, then that would be quite intriguing… At the Yuanqing Sect, Luo Zhen's heart was stirred. He calmly asked Sun Zhiyan, "Fellow Daoist Chen must be the top immortal talent of this generation. I wonder how many levels of Nascent Soul he has formed?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Dudu and others all paid close attention and carefully looked at Sun Zhiyan's reaction.

But what Luo Zhen didn't know was that he asked the wrong person about Chen Mu's qualifications.

Sun Zhiyan still thought that Chen Mu was at the eighth level of Nascent Soul, so how could he reveal the "flaw" they were expecting?

"Hahaha... Fellow Daoist Chen is a rare genius in Beiyuan, a talent rarely seen in a thousand years. He has reached the eighth level of Nascent Soul!"

"Ye?"

Luo Zhen and the others frowned slightly, but seeing Sun Zhiyan's frank expression, it didn't seem like he was trying to hide anything...

"Am I feeling wrong?"

They responded openly, and then secretly looked at Master Han Yuan's reaction.

They thought to themselves, if Chen Mu really had the ninth level, then he would definitely not be able to escape the detection of the True Lord...

Seeing this, the Taoist priest Tian Xing, who was hiding behind the crowd, was overjoyed. Although he didn't show it on his face, he was already proud in his heart: "I am a man from Fushan Changhe, and I can also stand on Zhongzhou!"

There were waves off the court, but on the court it was like a stagnant pool of water with people coming and going.

For a moment, the summit of Daoshi Mountain was filled with an eerie, tranquil atmosphere before a storm...

It was not until the afternoon that Jiang Zhengchu's face turned pale. He could no longer hold back and decided to take a risk.

At this moment, he had very little magic power and inspiration left. If he delayed any further, he would be defeated in a moment.

As someone who aspires to win the championship, how could he watch himself lose the opportunity and be defeated, when the opponent is someone he is determined to kill at all costs?

"A momentary misconception in your early years has led you to this point..."

Just before making his move, he suddenly felt regretful and angry, staring at Chen Mu intently: "With such strong magical power, he must have received Ao Yi's full support. Hateful... Hateful!"

His eyes turned slightly red, and without hesitation, he shook his whole body, and his forehead opened wide, and his Nascent Soul jumped out.

It carried all the remaining magic power and spiritual energy, rose straight into the sky, pierced through the thirty-six layers of the dome, drew down a ray of primordial chaotic energy from the sky, and swallowed it in one gulp.

The next moment, a dark light filled the area within a thousand miles around the top of Daoshi Mountain. The sound it caused was almost earth-shaking, as if the world had come to an end and the sky was overturned!

Upon seeing this, True Lord Han Yuan let out a sigh and thought to himself, "Could this generation truly be a disaster of destiny? The descendants of each lineage are truly more astonishing than the other..."

Jiang Zhengchu's eyes were fierce. Standing in the sky, he sneered, "Chen Mu, you have a hidden trump card, but don't I have a hidden killer move? Being secretive is not what a gentleman does. If you have the guts, fight me to the death!"

After saying this, he stared at Chen Mu intently, but he was worried that Chen Mu would not fall into the trap and give in, causing him to waste his resources in vain.

The people outside were unaware of the hatred between the two, so they thought that Jiang Zhengchu was just angry, otherwise how could it escalate to the point of life and death.

"Although Jiang Zhengchu forced his way through the primordial chaos energy, it already possessed the power of the Great Dao's origin, and was not inferior to Chen Mu's water magic."

"By now, both of them must be at the end of their strength. If they refuse to admit defeat, one of them could actually kill the other by mistake. Do the cultivators of Beiyuan dare to risk their lives?"

Just as everyone was speculating, Chen Mu suddenly laughed out loud and said coldly: "Since you have such courage, how could Chen cut you off from the outside!"
