Starting with Taoist priests from Maoshan to cultivate immortality

Old Master Xue glanced at the black flying boat flying in the sky, his eyes revealing a fierce glint.

"That's too arrogant, they actually came straight at me."

"Very well, I will personally annihilate you all."

He made hand seals, and a sinister aura emanated from him. A hideous ghost face appeared on the trunk of the willow tree with human skin.

Ghostly energy gathered, and a black ray of demonic energy the size of a bowl shot straight into the sky with a terrifying sonic boom.

The airship is equipped with defensive devices.

Everyone recklessly channeled their spiritual power and charged forward.

Click!

Finally, the defensive shields on the airship were shattered, and cracks appeared throughout the airship.

"Abandon ship!"

Jiang Yu made a quick decision and jumped off the flying boat.

"Oh my god!"

Lin Xiao covered his eyes and his body fell straight down.

His cultivation level was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining. Falling from such a height, he would definitely be smashed to pieces.

"I'll help you."

Jiang Yu reached out to grab it.

As a result, Boss Xue had the willow tree shoot out more than a dozen thin black rays to attack.

Jiang Yu had no choice but to throw it with all his might. Lin Xiao flew in an arc and crashed heavily onto the human-skinned beast-headed puppet.

Lin Xiao's body ached, and he struggled to get up.

"Thank goodness, I'm not dead."

Then he saw two ten-meter-tall human-skinned beast-headed puppets, staring at him coldly with blood-red eyes.

From the sky, Zhao Teng saw this scene and nodded in approval:

"I never expected Lin Xiao to be so brave."

"Facing two Foundation Establishment stage puppets alone, the disciples of the six major sects are indeed extraordinary."

Jiang Yu was speechless with emotion; he had always been this brave.

Boss Xue stared at Lin Xiao, who had landed, and frowned:

"Why would these humans send someone at the fourth level of Qi Refining as the vanguard?"

"He has such great courage, showing no fear whatsoever when facing my puppet."

Lin Xiao's body went limp, and he remained motionless.

"I'm doomed, I'm going to die!"

He subconsciously activated the magical artifact given to him by the bald beggar.

Instantly, an aura of majesty enveloped the surrounding space.

Boss Xue's eyes narrowed. This kid was faking it; he might actually be a Foundation Establishment cultivator in disguise.

Boss Xue urged the human-skinned beast-headed puppet to slam it heavily onto his body.

"A great opportunity!"

Xue Laoda's attention was drawn to Lin Xiao, while Zhao Teng conjured a ten-zhang-long broadsword, its sword energy as heavy as a mountain.

With a flick of his finger, Guan Xi sent a blue wind shuttle shooting through the air, its hundreds of strands of wind like streaks of light, densely piercing the enemy.

The surging spiritual energy whipped up a fierce wind that blew Lin Xiao away.

The puppet with human skin and animal head collided with its palms, unable to stop in time, and its palms were slashed off by Zhao Teng's ten-zhang-long broadsword.

Old Master Xue's eyes gleamed with an eerie green. With a wave of his hand, a wisp of ghostly energy condensed in the air into a ferocious ghostly claw.

The wisps of wind shooting out from the pipe fell on it like raindrops falling on a pond, creating only ripples before being absorbed.

With a wave of his hand, Xue Laoda unleashed five baby-sized human skin puppets from his ghostly claws, swords growing from their mouths, which shot straight at Guanxi.

"murderous look!"

Guan Xi suddenly shot out a large amount of red silk from his sleeves for defense.

The human-skin puppets moved nimbly, linked together, and threw two of them behind Guanxi.

Guanxi spun around, forming the red silk into a sphere.

"We've been tricked!"

Xue Laoda gave a sinister smile, and his enormous ghostly claw reached out to grab Guan Xi.

The small puppets he released were a feint; the giant ghost claw was the real killing move.

If she breaks free of her defenses, she will be killed by the small puppet's longsword;

If she doesn't break free of her defenses, she will be torn apart by the immense force of the giant demonic claw.

She was caught in a dilemma.

Boom!

At the critical moment, a golden ripple appeared, and the human skin puppet trembled violently, its movements freezing in mid-air.

Guan Xi hurriedly removed the red silk from her wrist and slid down.

The enormous demonic claw easily crushed the red copper silk.

After everyone landed on the ground, Boss Xue stared coldly at Jiang Yu.

He sensed a strong vengeful intent emanating from Jiang Yu; his lips trembled, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light as he said:

"You're the one who killed my brothers?"

He felt a tightness in his chest:

"I will turn you into human skin, so you will never be reincarnated!"

Jiang Yu chuckled and said:

"That's so unoriginal. Your brothers have said that line several times already, but unfortunately they all ended up getting caught."

Boss Xue gave Jiang Yu a cold look:

"You think you few can be a match for me?"

He chanted an incantation, and flesh-colored fragments floated to the ground. The human-skinned beast-headed puppet arm that Zhao Teng had previously severed was rapidly restored.

Jiang Yu looked down and his scalp tingled. They weren't standing on the ground, but on a thick layer of human skin.

"How many people did he actually kill?"

Boss Xue laughed loudly:

"Now you know what fear is, huh?"

"I peeled off each of these people's skin myself."

"Unfortunately, the quantity is too small, only tens of thousands."

His expression froze, and he stared coldly at Jiang Yu:

"We suffered considerable losses this time, which is perfect, as you human cultivators can serve as excellent reinforcements."

As soon as he finished speaking, the human skin on the ground bulged out like clay, giving rise to hundreds of faceless human head puppets.

Boss Xue mocked:

"Coming to confront me is the most foolish choice you could have made; now you are surrounded by me."

Jiang Yu smiled slightly and said:

"No, you're mistaken. You're the one who's surrounded."

"Making a big fuss!"

Boss Xue snorted coldly and said disdainfully:

"Your people are trapped in the Stone Forest Maze; they can't help you."

Jiang Yu produced a Yang Flame Talisman in his hand and tossed it into the air.

As the blazing sun burst open, the yellow weasel, the white-armored hedgehog, and the black-tailed wolverine clan instantly received the signal.

boom!

The massive rocks on the mountainside shattered with a deafening roar, and the tribe swarmed out, charging towards them.

The human skin dolls made by Boss Xue were quickly suppressed.

Boss Xue's face turned ashen; he hadn't expected there to be such a huge loophole here.

Jiang Yu added insult to injury:

"I have seen through your plans from beginning to end. Your so-called schemes are nothing but the behavior of a clown."

Boom!

One after another, holes appeared on the ground of the stone forest. The allied cultivators followed their plan and surrounded the evil spirits through the tunnels. The evil spirits were caught off guard and were killed unexpectedly.

The scales of victory in the war began to tip in Jiang Yu's favor.

Upon seeing this, Boss Xue's face turned from pale to red.

"You forced me to this, and I'll make sure you all die without a burial place."

Boss Xue made a hand seal, and all the ghostly energy within the ghostly realm began to converge wildly around him, flowing into the mouth of the human-skin willow tree like a stream.

A huge magic circle appeared beneath the willow tree with human skin.

"Stop him right now!"

Jiang Yu shouted.

His eyelids twitched wildly, and he felt a deep unease in his heart.

Zhao Teng and Guan Xi unleashed their spiritual energy and used their strongest attack skills to attack Boss Xue.

Human-skinned beast-headed puppets, along with a controlled fat man, blocked their way.

Jiang Yu now held a crimson stone covered in spiritual patterns, containing immense power.

This is the 'Breaking Stone' he obtained earlier, which can break through first-order restriction barriers.

"kill!"

Jiang Yu activated the barrier-breaking stone, causing its spiritual energy to erupt, and a 5-meter-sized ball of spiritual energy blasted towards the human-skin willow tree.

As the source of the Ghost Realm's array, the Human Skin Willow Tree is naturally countered by the Forbidden Stone.

Guan Xi and Zhao Teng were pleasantly surprised; they hadn't expected Jiang Yu to possess such a treasure.

The willow tree with human skin could not withstand this attack. They did their best to hold back the human skin beast head puppet and the fat man.

boom!

A massive mass of spiritual energy approached the willow tree with its human skin, emitting a dazzling light.

A terrifying explosive force swept outwards.

"It's done!"

Jiang Yu's lips curled slightly. No matter what Xue Laoda's conspiracy was, he was bound to fail after withstanding such a huge impact.

Old Master Xue gave a sinister smile, and a human-skinned beast-headed puppet emerged from the ground, blocking the attack of the huge spiritual energy ball.

Jiang Yu's pupils contracted; it turned out he had hidden another one in a hole underground.

The human-skinned beast-headed puppet suffered damage from the forbidden stone, its body blasted into hundreds of pieces.

The willow tree with human skin devoured all the ghostly energy, and its body rapidly grew to become a hundred-foot-tall tree demon, its terrifying pressure enveloping the entire ghost realm.

Jiang Yu's pupils suddenly contracted:

"A ghost at the Golden Core stage!"
