Become a true immortal by emulating all demons.

Chapter 167 The Ferocious Demon from Dragonspine Ridge

With a casual wave of their arms, the two body-tempering experts caused the mountain range to collapse into an abyss.

At this moment, the dazzling divine light shattered the clouds and mist, causing the sky to lose its color.

All signs indicate that this is the most powerful duel in Yongzhou.

The three-hoofed bull's scattered body fell toward the ground, only to be swept away by the raging wind and collected into its storage ring.

The young man who emerged victorious remained suspended in mid-air.

He was clad in ferocious demonic armor, and five long rivers of black flames pierced the heavens and earth, roaring wildly like dragons, or like five fingers that blotted out the sky, firmly controlling this area.

How could someone capable of such terrifying methods possibly be the so-called newly ascended demon lord?

Fang Qingbai was a rogue immortal under the tutelage of Tianjiao, a giant whose name resounded throughout the Nine Prefectures and One Pass.

Now that he was able to kill him, the young man had secured his place among the three great demon lords on the Yongzhou Demon Slayer Ranking.

But no matter how shocked they were, everyone remained standing still.

Because this battle of wits is not over yet.

The other two members of the Fang family, though they appeared as timid juniors in front of Fang Qingbai, would likely die without even knowing how if anyone ignored them because of it.

Lin Shu needs to concentrate on dealing with that rogue immortal.

So before taking action, he instructed them to keep a close eye on "them".

These words, however, took on completely different meanings in the ears of the Azure Sea Demon Lord and the Fool.

The beautiful woman kept an eye on the group of demon generals from beginning to end, and even when the sky collapsed and the earth caved in, the demons did not suffer any losses.

But the "they" that the fool understands are clearly not these little demons.

"roar!"

He strode clumsily through the crumbling mountains, yet his movements were terrifyingly fast. Even when the two immortal descendants revealed their true forms and desperately fled, they were still caught up by this ugly man.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

Without saying a word, the fool pounced on it, and his small body actually pinned the nearly two-zhang-tall behemoth to the ground.

It looked like a macaque riding on the neck of a bull; given the huge size difference, his haphazardly swinging fists looked somewhat comical.

But with each punch, the robust bull's body trembled as if struck by lightning, and its struggling movements became increasingly subtle.

The hard, sharp horn was smashed apart like a brittle bamboo, the skull shattered, and red and white substances splattered everywhere.

Then, the massive figure flew out and precisely smashed down another member of the Fang family. The fool leaped high and, in the same manner, rode on the man's neck.

Blood stained his scarred and ugly face, and a chilling killing intent gradually emerged in his turbid eyes.

The fool instinctively aimed for the other person's temple, but halfway up his hand, he suddenly remembered Master Lin's instructions.

"You must leave yourself a breath."

""

He shook his head, trying to clear away the scattered and chaotic memories that had surfaced in his mind, and then slammed his fists into the man's heavy jaw.

Click!Click!

Men don't possess supernatural powers, and they're not even skilled in techniques.

But beneath his fist, everything can be shattered.

Such a crude situation makes it completely unbelievable that this involves a battle between Golden Core cultivators.

When he was certain that both of the Fang family's immortal descendants were on their last breath, the man finally stood up, soaked to the bone, and laughed loudly at the sky: "Master Lin, I've got them under control."

"7

His smile was simple yet slightly naive.

But against the backdrop of that viscous, scarlet, hideous face, those around him felt a chill creep up their spines, and an indescribable sense of unease and fear arose in their hearts.

."

Lin Shu withdrew the black flames that filled the sky and raised an eyebrow.

Even now, he still doesn't know where the limits of a fool really lie.

At first, when he fought against the Chen family's immortal descendant who was in the early stage of the Golden Core realm, he was able to end up in a sorry state with injuries all over his body. But when he encountered Qian Yiru, he was still able to shatter the opponent's sword technique with a single punch.

Now he's even taking on two mid-stage Golden Core cultivators as his own, and he still seems to have plenty of energy left.

Should we try taking him directly to kill Yu Jingzhe?

Lin Shu made a sarcastic remark to herself.

Putting aside the limits of idiots, whether they are actually a match for Yu Jingzhe.

He himself wouldn't do such a thing.

The two made a vow to protect each other; the fool was his ally, not his master and his assassin.

Even if the other party is currently in a state of mental incapacity, he is fully capable of luring men to take risks.

But that kind of thing is just too despicable.

Moreover, even if we take a step back and assume the worst, given the fool's current state, does he expect the other party to chase after the mountain god's chariot on foot?

You have to earn what you want through your own efforts.

"Why are you the only ones who came? Where is Yu Jingzhe?"

Lin Shu's figure disappeared in mid-air, and when he reappeared, he had already landed on the Fang family's immortal descendant.

The fool retreated to one side. Although Master Lin always reminded himself to keep a breath of life, this was the first time he had seen the other party actually interrogate him.

Although the Fang family descendant was terrified by the ugly man's fists, he showed no intention of replying.

With the ancestor fallen and himself severely injured, he had fallen into the hands of these powerful demons and was now nothing more than fish on their chopping block. What chance did he have of surviving?

But after only a few breaths of silence, the bull sensed several faint outlines entering its brow and then viciously tearing at its soul.

"The Immortal Jingzhe—fearing an ambush, plans to first break the Eight Trigrams Dragon-Locking Plate, because he's afraid of the Wind-Fixing Pearl—"

He barely managed to open his eyes, his voice trembling. He didn't ask to live; he only hoped that his death would be a little easier.

59

Lin Shu nodded thoughtfully.

Having already heard it from the old demon, and now receiving confirmation from the immortal descendant, he felt much more at ease.

The treasures brought by this group of demon lords were indeed enough to make Yu Jingzhe wary.

As long as the mountain god's chariot does not appear, he will have considerable room for maneuver.

He casually waved his sleeve, and a flying sword transformed into a streak of light, slicing across the necks of the two savage bulls and exhausting the remaining magical power within them before returning to his storage ring.

Only now did Lin Shu begin to review the prompts she had previously glanced at.

[Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts, those who repair bridges and roads leave no remains, those who kill a spirit are rewarded with 25,000 taels of silver, plus 5 coins of Karmic Fire Essence.]

[Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts, those who repair bridges and roads leave no remains, those who kill a spirit are rewarded with eleven thousand taels of silver, plus two coins of Karmic Fire Essence.]

The three evil money prompts turned into 47,000 taels of evil silver and nine coins of karmic fire gold essence, which not only made up for the consumption of these pseudo-spiritual treasures for Lin Shu, but also earned him five coins.

Including the 25,000 taels he had previously gained from killing Chen Wenxi and his clan, his current savings had reached 72,000 taels, and he also had 2 taels of Karmic Fire Essence.

Lin Shu then looked at Shan Gong.

Life and death are determined by fate. Even if death is snatched from the hands of Yama, saving a worthy disciple will be rewarded with 5,600 taels of silver and one qian of gold essence for relieving suffering.

The merits brought by the Moon Stream Demon Lord were far less than those of the demon generals responsible for setting up the formation.

The formation of nine demon lords and nearly three hundred demons at the Core Formation stage, even if each were valued at the lowest rate of one hundred taels, would amount to a total of thirty thousand taels of silver.

Moreover, how could someone who can accompany the Demon Lord on business trips have just entered the Core Formation stage?

"Eighty-six thousand taels of silver in charity."

Lin Shu felt a pang of emotion; indeed, it was true that working in other places earned more.

Faced with such a generous sum of silver, his impression of the unfamiliar demons, including Jinhe, improved considerably.

He lent all his demon subjects to a newly promoted demon lord in order to help the two fallen demon lords evacuate all their remaining demon subjects from the dangerous place.

The whole thing is so complicated that I can't figure out what the benefits are.

No wonder the Red Silk Demon Lord said that the personalities of the demons in Yongzhou were all strange and unusual.

With a madman who dared to attack a half-life immortal on his head, the thoughts of this old subordinate brought by the demon king are equally unfathomable.

"My lord, this is the Moon-Devouring Demon Lord I told you about before."

The old demon strode over to the Moon Stream Demon Lord's side and introduced him in a low voice.

Just thinking about how he had to make the other person leave made him want to slap himself twice across the face.

They thought he was a newly promoted demon lord who had come to Shuangyun Mansion to seek refuge, but who would have thought that he was a top-level demon with the power to kill a rogue immortal? The servants he brought with him were already beings that they had to look up to.

Yu Jingzhe mastered the method to see through the Bagua Locking Dragon Plate.

Upon learning of this, the Moon Devouring Demon Lord rushed over to save the people, almost causing himself to be delayed!

."

The demons all held their breath and stared intently at the master and servant pair.

In everyone's mind, Dragon Ridge is a poor, remote place sandwiched between two countries.

That place is a training ground for Foundation Establishment cultivators; it's impossible to cultivate any great demons there.

Even the only one worthy of praise, the Cloud Dragon Demon Lord, was able to successfully break through to the Golden Core realm only with the help of the Yuanyuan Demon King.

For this reason, Jinhe and Shiyi, among other predecessors, had no intention of migrating the demon people towards the border, but instead sent them elsewhere.

But what they witnessed today completely changed the demons' perception of Dragon Spine Ridge.

Perhaps, it really is a paradise where one can recuperate and thrive?

"Please, senior, administer the talisman!"

The Moon Stream Demon Lord suddenly bowed deeply, displaying extreme humility.

She wasn't terrified by what happened today and wanted to flee Shuangyun Manor, but rather she was all too aware of her own limitations.

Only a powerful being like the Moon Devouring Demon Lord is qualified to contend with Yu Jingzhe.

If we can get their help, we can completely make up for the last shortcoming of the Bagua Dragon Locking Plate!

"I think I'll pass."

Lin Shu returned from a very distant place with the fool in her arms.

He probably already understands.

The Demon Lord of Jinhe gathered a group of powerful demons, and with the help of the Bagua Dragon-Locking Plate and the Wind-Fixing Pearl, he gained the strength to threaten Yu Jingzhe.

But that's all.

It is virtually impossible to defeat this prodigy, let alone kill him.

After all, it wasn't just the demons who had hidden their methods.

Since Yu Jingzhe can mobilize the power of incense offerings and perform the "Qingshan Wanli Observation Technique," he might have other methods of killing using this incense offering.

Otherwise, why would he send people to break the formation? He must be confident that he can kill all the demons.

The fact that the two sides were able to remain deadlocked in Frostcloud Prefecture was already the best possible outcome for the demons.

As long as enough time can be bought, the other lesser demons will have a better chance of survival. When it becomes unbearable, the Demon Lord Jinhe will then lead everyone away.

This line of thinking is definitely correct.

But Lin Shu knew more.

For example, Yu Jingzhe is not the biggest threat at all.

The truly deadly thing was the being who even forced the Demon King Su Xin to enter the fray.

Young Master Qi is about to wake up.

So dragging things out is useless and won't change the outcome.

Lin Shu wasn't interested in the Li character; he had his own way of concealing his aura. However, he was very interested in the Bagua Dragon Locking Plate and the Wind-Fixing Pearl.

If I can master these two treasures, my chances of defeating Yu Jingzhe will increase dramatically.

But this is tantamount to asking the demon lords to hand over their lifeblood. Without sufficient prestige and achievements to back them up, how can these great demons feel at ease?

"Uh... Little demon, little demon really doesn't have that ability..."

After being politely refused, the Moon Stream Demon Lord was clearly at a loss.

"Let her come."

Lin Shu looked at the blue sea beside her.

If it is a combined attack formation, it means that the eight array eyes will transmit demonic power to the person in charge of the formation. His own magic power is borrowed from the illusory image of the immortal descendant, so where would he have demonic power to lend to others?

Moreover, possessing such supernatural abilities as riding the wind and patrolling the mountains, it would be a real waste to simply sit idly in one place.

"I?"

The Azure Sea Demon Lord was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt that the white jade in his hand was a little hot.

But in an instant, she nodded vigorously: "Bihai obeys."

She had been wondering how Brother Lin would contend with a rogue immortal without using the Mountain God Mirror.

Just as that enormous bull hoof trampled the heavens and earth, the Azure Sea Demon Lord even thought that Lin Shu would be crushed into dust under this "secluded mountain".

What happened next completely shattered her understanding of the world.

Even without relying on spiritual treasures, Brother Lin Yao is still at the peak of the Golden Core stage. Perhaps only someone like him is qualified to set up a trial for Qian Yiru.

"Protect them and evacuate them. While you're at it, tell me about those two treasures."

Lin Shu looked around and quickly made a plan in her mind.

The Green Mountain Observation Technique grants Yu Jingzhe the ability to monitor all directions, but this ability can also be used to mislead others into making incorrect judgments.

After learning of Fang Qingbai's death, the thing this prodigy was most worried about was not how powerful the demon was.

Because no matter how strong the demon is, he can't possibly be stronger than the Qi and Yu families. If he's really pushed to the limit, he can still get a lot of help from others.

What the other side fears most is that all the demons in the mountains will withdraw, and the nine demon lords will escape unscathed, denying him the opportunity for revenge.

As proud as Yu Jingzhe was, how could he possibly accept such a loss?

Only when he starts to get anxious can I take advantage of the situation to do many things.

"You've already seen the treasure—the Eight Trigrams Dragon-Locking Plate."

Moon Creek Demon Lord turned his head and saw Senior Azure Sea skillfully organizing the demons to evacuate, clearly having experienced similar scenes many times before.

The other party was a powerful demon from Anren Prefecture, yet he followed the Moon Devouring Demon Lord.

Could it be that all the troubles in Anren Prefecture have been resolved?

Thinking of this, Yuexi's heart couldn't help but tremble. Looking across the nine prefectures, apart from that senior figure who ranked first below the Demon King, which other senior dared to say that he could suppress an entire prefecture?

She withdrew her gaze and said softly, "As for the Wind-Stabilizing Pearl, I don't know much about it. I heard that the Silver-Eyed White Wolf Immortal of the Qi family found a wisp of innate divine wind and refined it into the stone pearl. It can not only greatly suppress the strength of the Mountain God Clan, but if the time is right, even the Mountain God's Carriage will be greatly affected."

"Innate Divine Wind —"

Lin Shu felt something was off when the girl kept calling him "senior".

In terms of age, even if I had lived two lives, I would probably be far inferior to this demon lord.

However, he was currently in dire need of prestige, so he didn't bother to correct him.

On the contrary, it was Yuexi's description of the Wind-Fixing Pearl that aroused his considerable interest.

I originally thought this thing was just a treasure to restrain the Yu family, but I never expected that it would be the complete opposite of its name.

The one who tames the wind is, in essence, a divine wind?

Lin Shu's most pressing concern right now is how to create the three calamities for herself.

Especially after this incident, including the money he had earned from Yu Sheng, he now had 100,000 taels of silver, which was more than enough for him to try to attain the Golden Core stage.

Thinking about this, he felt a little regretful.

If it weren't the Fang family members who came today, but rather the Yang family's wandering immortal, then I would have acquired another fire technique.

However, there are both advantages and disadvantages.

If the Yang family's hermit immortal really came, let's not even talk about whether he could win.

Lin Shu could keep Fang Qingbai in check the whole time they were fighting, but if the other party was good at fire magic, he really didn't have the confidence to protect the demons below.

The price of the silver will definitely be significantly reduced.

In any case, he already had ideas for fire and lightning disasters, and he didn't need to worry about the quality being insufficient, because he could use evil silver to improve it.

But for the typhoon, Lin Shu's initial plan was to have the chicks help.

The two are of one mind, so there's a chance they can succeed, but the quality of the result is uncertain.

If there were other options, those would definitely be the best.

"Is the Wind-Fixing Pearl in the hands of the Stone-Winged Demon Lord?" Lin Shu pursed her lips.

"Indeed, the Stone Wing Demon Lord is famous in Yongzhou for his teleportation technique. He possesses the Wind-Fixing Pearl. If Yu Jingzhe really descends upon the Demon Mountain in person, this senior can get there as quickly as possible."

Yuexi nodded gently and explained, "Moreover, Senior Shiyi's strength ranks among the top two to three among us."

She wasn't quite sure who was stronger, Senior Stone Wing or the Moon Devouring Demon Lord.

After all, both possess the ability to kill loose immortals, and many years ago, the Stone Wing Demon Lord had already done something similar.

"I see."

Lin Shu withdrew her gaze.

Since the demon lords like Jinhe were willing to travel thousands of miles to keep watch over Yu Jingzhe for the greater good, even Yuexi was able to get a Li character.

This shows that they are definitely not the type of people who would value treasures more than their own lives.

It's not impossible for me to obtain this item if I want to.

But at the very least, he must first prove his worth as the Moon-Devouring Demon Lord, enough to replace those two treasures in protecting the demons.

For example, if we can do this better, we can ensure the safe evacuation of the demon people of Shuangyun Prefecture, and also arrive as quickly as possible when other demon lords are in danger.

We still need to continue quenching.

Lin Shu has a clearer understanding of her current strength.

Even without using any magical treasures, he was already stronger than ordinary rogue immortals.

The premise is that the other party cannot make any prior arrangements, such as formations or the like — the Green Mountain Ten Thousand Miles Observation Method, which is set up with the power of incense and vows, can even see through spiritual treasures, and its range is frighteningly wide.

Who knows if it has any other uses?

As for fighting two opponents at once, that might be a bit difficult, but with the Mountain God Mirror, and disregarding the cost of good deeds and bad deeds, it's barely worth a try.

The main problem is that Lin Shu is not quite clear about the difference between a prodigy and a rogue immortal.

Slightly better?

Or can it be a level higher?

This battle is unlike any of the previous ones.

In the past, if you lost, you could still run away, but in front of Yu Jingzhe, who possessed the Mountain God's Carriage, losing a battle of magic was tantamount to losing your life.

Lin Shu really didn't dare to gamble her life on whether that prodigy was a fraud or not.

Therefore, he could only try his best to improve his own foundation before actually taking action.

There's no limit, the more the better!
