Becoming an immortal and ancestor begins with the golden toad spitting out money.

When Su Ji returned to the blessed land of Jin Ku Zong after many days, he was greeted by a scene of pure white. The southern region, which was originally filled with yin energy, seemed to have become fresh and clean because of the heavy snowfall.

The local deity, Zhang Gong, explained with a smile, "The reason this battle was chosen to be in December, besides the fact that Thousand Changes Town was leading the effort to forge giant mechanical armor, is also related to the so-called opportune moment..."

As the saying goes, "favorable timing, advantageous location, and harmonious relationships."

The army that was besieging the demons had gathered more than 1,800 cultivators and had also persuaded eight lesser immortals to lead their respective armies to come, which was a great achievement.

Because the battlefield was in the White Mist Rift Valley, the pervasive white mist undoubtedly obstructed the view and affected the war. The white mist condensed into snowflakes and fell, finally revealing the scenery around the White Mist Valley, which was an advantage of the terrain.

The Yin energy in the southern region is like fish in water for demons, but unbearable for cultivators at the Ghost General level. After using snowflakes to sweep away the Yin energy as much as possible, at least the power of heaven and earth mobilized by the cultivators is purer.

"What a heavy snowfall!"

Su Ji had already discerned that the heavy snow might be influenced by the will of the blessed land, but it was mostly on a few figures that were vaguely visible in the sky.

The fundamental attribute of the Jinku Sect's blessed land is [Xin Metal], which is Yin Metal.

Among them, the Dao Fruits of the Evil Immortal of the Child Clan, the Lesser Immortal of the Tiger Clan, the Lesser Immortal of the Wolf Clan, and the Lesser Immortal of the Pheasant Clan have the highest proportion of metal, while the Dao Fruits of the Lesser Immortal of the Bear Clan, the Lesser Immortal of the Fox Clan, the Lesser Immortal of the Ape Clan, and the Lesser Immortal of the Snake Clan are more yin in

The last battle was led by the most powerful sub-cultivator evil immortals. In order to carry out this great battle to exterminate the evil demons, the bear clan's little immortals led several little immortals with a tendency towards yin energy to manipulate the power of heaven and earth to bring down a heavy snow that lasted for more than a month in the southwest of the blessed land.

The effects of the snow were gradual, and in the past few days, it finally reached its maximum effect in the southwestern region, so the battle was scheduled for today.

Yan Tianchou, using Su Ji's small clairvoyance, observed the bear-clan fairy who was now unleashing her full power and analyzed:

"The Bear Clan Little Immortal, like the Evil Immortal Zixiu and the Snake Clan Little Immortal, is an old-fashioned little immortal who has survived from ancient times. He has already reached the third level of cultivation and his combat power can reach the top level like the Snake Clan Little Immortal. In addition, the Bear Clan Little Immortal is surrounded by incense and wish power. If he uses the incense and wish power accumulated over tens of thousands of years, his combat power is at least comparable to two top-level immortal soldiers."

"The aura of the fox spirit has weakened considerably, and it should only be at the second level of cultivation. With the support of the power of heaven and earth, it should be considered a powerful immortal weapon."

"Although the ape fairy is similar to the fox fairy, she possesses a magical staff, which might allow her to unleash the combat power of a top-tier magical weapon..."

In reality, combat strength is only one standard; when actually engaging in combat, the timing, location, and human factors will also be taken into account.

Moreover, some minor immortals are skilled in melee combat, while others are skilled in ranged magic. Even a top-tier snake-type minor immortal at the level of a celestial soldier could still be defeated if a powerful tiger-type minor immortal at the level of a celestial soldier got close to it.

It was precisely because of this that the eight minor immortals dared to unite with the visiting cultivators to fight against the evil spirits.

It should be noted that the six Earth Demon Giants from the Dao-Merging Grotto-Heavens are virtually invincible in terms of defense, their only weakness being the loss of their consciousness, which makes it possible for the weak to overcome the strong.

"finally come!"

When the little bear fairy saw a large number of cultivators filing in, she did not put away the small world-state Dharma image that was as tall as eighteen feet. Instead, after stopping the spell to make snow fall, she began to absorb the power of the blessed land to replenish her energy.

Although the visiting cultivators were all in the form of flying spirits, they did not fly away quickly, but instead traveled slowly while familiarizing themselves with the environment of the blessed land.

It took about fifteen minutes for the army to arrive near the rift valley.

Just as the cultivators were landing in droves, several hills behind them suddenly began to move. After clumps of snow fell, they revealed metal armor that looked like giants.

Even though many cultivators already knew the reason for the delayed final battle, they were still shocked when they saw the [Sexual Metal] divine beast equipped with external armor.

"It is said that after the [Sexual Metal] Divine Beast was cultivated into an invincible bloodline demon king, the tallest Iron Monkey was only three stories high. Now, with the addition of external armor, its size has reached seven or eight zhang!"

Perhaps compared to the snake-like immortal's twenty-odd-zhang-long miniature world-world image, the iron monkey divine beast wearing external armor is not considered large, but the former is a tangible but intangible soul spirit, while the latter is a real metal creation.

"Such a powerful weapon, if used in human warfare, would be enough to withstand even the thickest city walls with just a few blows from the [Sexual Metal] divine beast. It is truly the strongest physical body below the level of immortals and gods!"

If war breaks out in the human world, even immortals and gods will avoid it for fear of affecting the fate of humanity and the nation. In this case, the Bloodline Demon King becomes one of the strongest forces in the world.

However, the [Sexual Metal] Divine Beast is an exception. As long as it can cultivate to perfection, it will be invincible, which is much less of a price to pay than that of a Bloodline Demon King to become invincible.

Even the Tiger King was filled with emotion, and then looked at Su Ji not far away, thinking to himself:

"It was Mo Linglong, the reincarnation of the Mysterious Immortal of Thousand Changes Town, who discovered the secret of restricting the mutual devouring and growth of the [Sexual Metal] Divine Beast when she extracted the spiritual patterns from its corpse. This led to the method of cultivating the [Sexual Metal] Divine Beast to the Spiritual Perfection level."

"However, some say that Mo Linglong extracted the spiritual patterns from the [Sexual Metal] divine beast at the behest of the Golden Toad. This suggests that the cultivation method of the [Sexual Metal] divine beast may be a secret known to the Golden Toad in its previous life..."

With just three high-grade profound techniques, Su Ji wouldn't be considered a reincarnation of a celestial general by so many cultivators. His extremely fast cultivation speed, the secret method for cultivating the [metal element] divine beast... all these factors combined make people believe that Su Ji is most likely a reincarnation of a celestial general.

As for the identity of the celestial general, even many cultivators who have difficulty contacting immortals and gods cannot guess it at all.

Even the immortals and gods do not know how many immortals and gods are hidden in the blessed lands of the various mystical sects, nor do they know which immortals and gods seem to still exist, but have actually already secretly reincarnated.

Su Ji looked at the six enormous armored divine beasts and revealed a pleased expression: "All six armored divine beasts can be described as powerful. If they are blessed by countless cultivators and immortals, they may be able to fight the six earth demon giants head-on!"

In fact, nine [metal] divine beasts regained a portion of their consciousness, but only for half a year. Despite the cultivators' best efforts, they only managed to create five armors. The sixth armor was a modification of the giant mechanism that Mo Linglong and Su Ji used to refine the Linglong Immortal Furnace.

Moreover, there are no more than twenty corpses of [Sexual Metal] divine beasts. Even if all the collected ores are used on [Sexual Metal] divine beasts, only seven perfect divine beasts can be cultivated.

As for breaking through the shackles to become a powerful being of the [metal element] path, that cannot be achieved simply by piling up resources.

"Snapped!"

The sound of armored beasts stepping forward echoed like an earthquake, leaving footprints seven feet long in the snow, large enough for several people to sleep in.

Under the command of the mechanical wizard of Thousand Change Town, the six armored divine beasts did not jump directly into the rift, but instead picked up stones and threw them down into the rift.

Indeed, if the battlefield were below the rift, not to mention armored divine beasts, even many cultivators would be unable to unleash their full potential, not to mention the potential traps set by demons below the rift.

By deliberately lifting stones and throwing them downwards, one can provoke the Earth Giant. If the Giant dares to come up and fight, then one will have the upper hand.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom……"

After a series of falling rocks, a series of angry roars indeed came from below.

Even though the mechanical wizard didn't have Su Ji's super hearing, he could still adjust the position of the falling rocks based on the sound, making the roars below grow louder and louder.

Su Ji looked down. Although white mist still lingered deep within the rift valley, it couldn't obstruct his fully developed Lesser Thousand-Mile Eyes. He could see a deep valley stretching for several miles below the mist, with patches of white snow on the ground due to the snowfall.

In the center of the deep valley, an even thicker white fog permeated the area, where only a few densely packed figures could be vaguely seen, arranged in an orderly fashion like soldiers in battle formation.

On either side of the center, two enormous monsters, each fourteen or fifteen feet tall, can be seen. Their explosive muscles and skin are made of earth and stone, and their bodies exude a tangible yet intangible Yin-Yang demonic aura.

As Su Ji continued to look to both sides, he saw the remaining six Earth Demon Giants. It was clear that the demons had divided up a territory for each of them to prevent them from fighting.

Where there are earth giants, the width of the canyon is much greater than elsewhere, even extending into blind spots.

"The Golden Fiend Cloud has no physical form; perhaps it only needs to absorb the power of heaven and earth. The Earth Demon Giant, like the [Metal-type] Divine Beast, has a physical form. The latter flattened an entire mountain range, and the Earth Demon Giant should have hollowed out some areas below the deep valley as well..."

The mechanical wizard only located the four earth giants based on the sound, and Su Ji quickly reminded him.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Jinchan!"

For this battle to eradicate the demons, Thousand Changes Town brought all its resources. Since there weren't enough people to control the armored divine beasts, they also invited several patriarchs to come.

Before long, all six earth giants were enraged, but none of them climbed upwards. It wasn't that they weren't angry enough, but rather that the pervasive white mist blocked their vision, leaving them only able to wander aimlessly without being able to find their enemy.

In response, Su Ji immediately found Jin Yanlingjun and said, "Most of the white mist here has disappeared due to the snowfall, but the white mist below the rift valley still exists. If we want to attract them up, we should eliminate the white mist."

In Su Ji's view, the white mist was not only created by the demons to protect the rift valley, but also served as a barrier to prevent the earth demon giants from running amok or even killing each other. Therefore, it was necessary to remove the white mist.

Soon, the Golden Flame Spirit Lord found the Bear Clan Little Fairy. Since the white mist did indeed obscure the view, the proposal was unanimously approved.

This time, in addition to the little fairy of the bear clan, many other cultivators also helped. Soon, cold air filled the rift valley, and soon ice crystals formed.

The white mist was thinnest at the north and south ends of the rift valley, and soon turned into snowflakes and fell, revealing two earth demon giants.

In an instant, many cultivators saw two strangely shaped earth demon giants.

The southern giant was like a ball, making its head appear as small as a potato sprout; the northern giant, on the other hand, had eight legs like a crab, and each leg shone with a metallic sheen.

When people saw the two Earth Giants, the two Earth Giants finally realized the presence of the provocateurs and roared furiously as they charged upwards.

However, the spherical Earth Giants were far too bulky, and even with their powerful short limbs, they still had difficulty climbing.

The northern giant, on the contrary, climbed very quickly thanks to its eight legs, and in the blink of an eye, it had covered a good halfway distance.

Seeing this, the Golden Flame Spirit Lord said with delight, "We can stop condensing the white mist into snowflakes now. Dealing with the Earth Demon Giants one by one is definitely easier than dealing with six Earth Demon Giants at the same time!"

Including the army of the eight lesser immortals, they had a total of more than 2,600 cultivators participating in the battle. Even though they outnumbered the demons, they would still suffer many casualties. Taking things slowly would reduce unnecessary losses.

"Alright!" The little bear fairy immediately understood and stopped casting the spell to make snow fall.

But the chill continued to spread, and soon a giant earth demon with two heads and four arms appeared.

"Three Earth Giants, it's not impossible to devour them all at once!"

Immediately, Zixiu the Evil Immortal led the Snake Clan Little Immortal, Wolf Clan Little Immortal, and Tiger Clan Little Immortal to attack the eight-clawed Earth Demon Giant, while the Bear Clan Little Immortal led the Fox Clan Little Immortal, Ape Clan Little Immortal, and Pheasant Clan Little Immortal to attack the two-headed, four-armed Earth Demon Giant.

Jin Yanlingjun then transferred three armored divine beasts and six cultivator squads to deal with the spherical earth demon giant. Su Ji's Jinfeng County squad was among them, while the Tiger King squad remained in place to await orders.

The first to engage the Earth Demon Giant were Zi Xiu and his group. Instead of charging directly at it, they enhanced their armored divine beasts while leading it to a more open area to prevent it from escaping back into the rift valley.

However, at this moment, the last remaining white mist in the rift suddenly began to dissipate, and the last three earth demon giants also discovered their target and roared as they charged forward.

Su Ji was not surprised by this. The demons were not fools and would certainly not give them the chance to be defeated one by one. So they took the initiative to disperse the white mist and let the six earth demon giants rush forward.

Immediately afterward, Su Ji used his miniature telescope to see the scene at the center of the rift valley and was shocked: "The ones arranging the troops are not demons, but insects!"

A year and a half has passed since the ruined fairyland of the Golden Cave Sect was discovered, and the Insect Mother and the Eyeless Demon Lord have also been missing for a year and a half.

Su Ji wasn't entirely sure if these insects were related to the insect mother, but he had a bad feeling.

"The army of insects is arrayed in battle formation; where are the demons?"

As early as half a year ago, when the Golden Fiend Demon Cloud was annihilated, many people were afraid that the demon would escape and inform the demons below the White Mist Rift of the battle situation. However, it was difficult to keep the commotion of the battle from the demons, and the demons may have already made some preparations.

Therefore, Su Ji said to Golden Flame Spirit Lord, "Golden Flame Spirit Lord, I suspect there is something wrong beneath the rift valley, and I am preparing to go and investigate alone!"

With Su Ji's current strength, he could avoid fighting even if he directly confronted the Earth Demon Giant. He could also deal with demons by using various means. With the help of Yan Tianchou, Xiao Qianliyan, and Xiao Shunfeng'er, it would be difficult for him to fall into a trap.

In fact, the Golden Flame Spirit Lord also sensed something was amiss. As previously predicted, the demons should have assisted when the Earth Giants attacked, but now there was no sign of them...

Golden Flame Spirit Lord pondered and said, "Fellow Daoist Golden Toad, it might be quite dangerous for you to explore the depths of the Rift Valley alone. Why don't you bring a few more high-level cultivators with you?"

Su Ji shook his head at this: "The more people you bring, the greater the risk. Golden Flame Spirit Lord, just wait here for my news!"

Su Ji had already flown out when he spoke. It was already a sign of respect for the commander-in-chief to inform the Golden Flame Spirit Lord; any further delay could have led to a major disaster.

Then, Su Ji's figure flashed and completely disappeared from the cultivators' sight, but few people were worried about anything, after all, in their eyes Su Ji was the reincarnation of a celestial general.

Sure enough, about a hundred breaths later, Su Ji's figure reappeared, but his expression was solemn.

"Gentlemen, the demons have indeed left their lair long ago. Now, apart from the six earth demon giants, there is only a large swarm of insects here."

"If the demon is hiding somewhere else, that's fine, but if it takes this opportunity to attack the home of the eight lesser immortals, then things will really get serious!"

The worst thing in war is an unstable rear. If the eight little immortals' rear groups were stolen by demons, Su Ji could still accept it.

However, if the evil spirits are trying to release the immortal demon king who was suppressed by the immortal lord, then the situation in the blessed land may change drastically.

It should be noted that even the White Tiger Immortal General could not kill the Undying Demon King. The Immortal Lord also sacrificed himself after merging with the Dao, using the six White Tiger Divine Pillars to suppress the Undying Demon King in the Daoist temple.

If the Undying Demon King were released, the consequences would be unimaginable. (End of Chapter)
