Beast Taming Immortal Clan
Chapter 832 Changchun Makes a Move, Counterattack!
Zhou Chun had not yet witnessed the strength of Venerable Changchun.
This time, he finally witnessed the opponent's true form coming to his aid.
With a wave of his hand, a green and blue aura intertwined in front of him, transforming into a green and blue vine.
As if it had its own life, this bluish-green vine immediately began to coil around the [Wind Demon Lion] upon its appearance.
The Wind Demon Lion, of course, dared not let such a thing get close. With a low roar, a transparent and invisible wind blade flew towards the green vine.
However, the vines were easily cut in two after being struck by the invisible wind blades.
However, to the great surprise of [Wind Demon Lion], the two broken vines showed no signs of dissipating. Instead, they grew wildly, transforming into two vines that coiled around him.
Undeterred, he unleashed two more wind blades at the two vines, and learning from his mistake, he struck them several more times.
As a result, each time the vine was cut, it would turn into two vines again, just like before.
In just a few breaths, the original single vine was transformed into as many as thirty-six cyan vines due to the repeated attacks of the [Wind Demon Lion], and each one was the same length!
Such bizarre methods not only stunned [Wind Demon Lion] himself, but also amazed Zhou Chun and other onlookers.
"What are the growth characteristics of the Wood element according to the Great Dao principle?"
Zhou Chun's eyes flickered slightly, and he had a guess in his mind.
Each of the laws of the Great Dao has many characteristics.
Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator exhausts all their strength, it is impossible for them to gain a deep understanding and mastery of every law's characteristics.
Therefore, each Nascent Soul stage cultivator will choose several directions to develop in a targeted manner.
For example, Zhou Chun has currently chosen to develop in three directions: sharpness, solidity, and volatility, based on the principles of the Golden Path.
In the future, when his cultivation level is higher and progress in these three directions slows down, he can choose to comprehend other types of laws and characteristics.
Looking at the battlefield over there, when the Wind Demon Lion saw that attacking against attack was not enough to stop the vines from getting closer, it immediately tried to use its speed advantage. In a flash, it disappeared from the spot, its figure nowhere to be seen.
But with a soft hum from Venerable Changchun, he let out a scream and fell from the void hundreds of miles away.
Before he could use any other methods, the thirty-six vines had already surrounded him from all directions, quickly forming a huge vine cage that trapped him inside.
After trapping the Wind Demon Lion, Venerable Changchun was not in a hurry to launch a more intense attack on it. Instead, he set Lei Zhen, a sixth-level expert of the Multi-Winged Clan, as his next target.
He raised his hand and waved it, and a green bamboo spear appeared, its tip aimed at Lei Zhen.
This green bamboo spear looks very simple, as if someone casually cut down a green bamboo and sharpened it to make it.
However, no one who sees this treasure dares to underestimate it.
Because the bamboo pole was naturally inscribed with twelve Daoist characters!
It is obvious that this treasure is a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure made using acquired spiritual roots, a treasure made purely from powerful materials.
Such treasures were quite common in ancient times, because there were still many acquired spiritual roots in this world at that time, and various acquired spiritual objects could often be found.
However, as those ascended cultivators took these treasures to the upper realm one after another, coupled with the losses caused by the ancient war, such treasures are now extremely rare.
At this moment, under the urging of Venerable Changchun, the cyan bamboo spear vanished from its original spot in a flash and appeared in front of Lei Zhen in an instant.
Despite being on guard and managing to intercept the attack with his staff, Lei Zhen was still pierced through both shoulders by two phantoms that suddenly split from the bamboo spear, leaving two bloody holes that gushed blood!
Before he could stop the bleeding and heal his wounds, the green bamboo spear suddenly bent, like a green snake, and coiled around the staff in his hand. The spearhead even seemed to bypass the staff and pierce his body.
Startled, he quickly released his staff and rapidly vibrated the sixteen wings on his back to create distance.
However, this was a deliberate inducement by Venerable Changchun. After he released his hand, the staff was directly entangled and imprisoned by the green snake transformed from the green bamboo spear, and no matter how he summoned it, he could not take it back!
However, Venerable Changchun's follow-up attacks have already begun again.
A streak of dark green divine light pierced the sky and struck Lei Zhen's body precisely.
In an instant, he seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit, his body aged considerably, and the feathers on his wings fell off one by one, losing most of them at once.
It is obvious that this is a technique similar to Lu Yuanjun's [Life and Death Profound Light] divine ability, but when used by Venerable Changchun, even a sixth-level expert cannot be immune to it.
Lei Zhen was already injured, and after this ordeal, he was on the verge of death.
He was also a decisive person. Seeing that his own situation was not good, he immediately and decisively abandoned his severely damaged body and forcibly sacrificed his body to obtain a powerful blow.
A burst of intense lightning erupted from his body, transforming into a pillar of lightning that slammed into the blue bamboo spear.
Upon being struck by the pillar of lightning, the cyan bamboo spear immediately detached from the staff, making it impossible to restrain the treasure any longer.
The staff, which had regained its freedom, was instantly summoned back by Lei Zhen's primordial spirit.
Lei Zhen's primordial spirit, having relinquished his physical body, appeared somewhat ethereal, radiating a silvery glow throughout, making him quite visually appealing.
After recalling his staff, he immediately fled the battlefield, not daring to stay there any longer in this extremely dangerous place.
Although the primordial spirit of a sixth-tier expert also possesses formidable combat power, without the protection of a physical body, any injury sustained during a battle with an opponent can easily become a Dao injury that is difficult to heal!
Therefore, unless forced into a desperate situation with nowhere to escape, no sixth-tier expert would continue to fight against opponents of the same tier using only their primordial spirit after sacrificing their physical body.
With this single strike, he trapped the Wind Demon Lion, and with a few moves, he destroyed Lei Zhen's physical body. The appearance of Venerable Changchun greatly shocked the alien races.
The black-gold dragon, which was originally fighting Zhou Chun, stopped its attack in shock and stared at Venerable Changchun.
Huo Lan, a sixth-tier expert from the Triangle Clan, reacted in the same way.
This was the first time they had seen Venerable Changchun in action, and his strength was truly beyond their expectations.
"Retreat! Old Ghost Changchun's strength is beyond our expectations. Let's retreat first!"
After a moment of shock, the black-gold dragon growled and ordered a retreat.
Then he and Huo Lan, a sixth-tier powerhouse from the Triangle Clan, changed targets and quickly stepped in to help [Wind Demon Lion] out of trouble.
Seeing this, Venerable Changchun sneered, "Trying to leave now? Do you think I don't exist?"
With that, he urged the blue bamboo spear to strike the [Wind Demon Lion] inside the cage.
At the same time, a white light flashed on his body, and a white ruler-like spiritual treasure appeared, suddenly transforming into a giant ruler hundreds of feet long, which struck the black-gold dragon.
Zhou Chun, of course, wouldn't just stand by and watch at this moment. He immediately released the [Great Roc Soaring Sword] from his hand and unleashed the sword technique [God Splitting] that came with this treasure, slashing towards Huo Lan, a sixth-level expert from the Triangular Clan.
Both the black-gold dragon and Huo Lan, the Holy Ancestor of the Triangular Clan, knew that they had to save the Wind Demon Lion.
Therefore, the two of them had no intention of backing down and were determined to rescue their companion, even at the risk of injury.
Huo Lan wielded his crimson longsword to slash through the vine cage while simultaneously summoning a somewhat tattered black shield to protect himself.
When the Great Roc Soaring Sword struck the shield, a crack half a finger wide immediately appeared on the black shield, almost severing it completely in two.
At the same time, a sharp eagle's cry suddenly rang out from the sword, causing Huo Lan, who was standing close by, to contort his face and reveal a look of pain.
Even this soul-wrenching pain did not stop him from rescuing the Wind Demon Lion.
With the combined efforts of the black-gold dragon and Huo Lan, the vine cage was finally shattered by their combined attack from within and without.
However, before it could escape, the Wind Demon Lion was pierced through the head by the blue bamboo spear, suffering severe injuries as well.
Having rescued the Wind Demon Lion, the black-gold dragon immediately shouted, "Don't let him defeat them one by one! Let's retreat together!"
As they spoke, the three sixth-tier alien races began to retreat together, providing mutual support and cover for each other.
Seeing this, Venerable Changchun and Zhou Chun naturally wouldn't let them retreat easily, and immediately continued their pursuit.
After chasing them for a while and inflicting numerous injuries on all three, the pursuit finally ended with the support of the Golden Horned Demon Saint's true form.
But this only temporarily ended the pursuit.
The arrival of Venerable Changchun and the heavy damage inflicted on Lei Zhen and the Wind Demon Lion have put the alien alliance at a disadvantage in terms of high-end combat power.
If they don't retreat, and if Venerable Changchun and Zhou Chun continue their attacks, they simply won't be able to withstand them.
So after this battle, the situation actually became clear.
If the alien alliance doesn't reveal any more trump cards, their defeat is inevitable!
Meanwhile, after escorting Zhou Chun and Tai Geng Divine Venerable back to the devastated Nine Yuan Sword Sect's mountain gate, Venerable Changchun said to the two with a serious expression, "I have to go to Dragon Abyss. You two take care of things here for now. After that battle, I imagine those alien races won't dare to start another war!"
Upon hearing his words, Tai Geng Divine Venerable was also startled and immediately asked, "Why go to Longyuan at this time? Senior Changchun, have you discovered something?"
"Golden Horned Dragon Saint's behavior is a bit off. I suspect he might be using a feigned retreat to deliberately conceal something, so I need to go to Dragon Abyss to investigate!"
Venerable Changchun did not hide anything and directly stated the reason why he went to Longyuan.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but interject, "Now that Senior Changchun has said this, this matter does indeed seem a bit strange."
At this moment, Venerable Changchun said, "Don't worry, as long as Longyuan doesn't have anyone who can stop me, my trip will only take three to five days at most. That's not even enough time for that [Wind Demon Lion] to recover from its injuries!"
"Furthermore, I will leave behind a dummy body simulating my aura here. If we're lucky, those alien races might not even notice my departure!"
Since he had already said so much, Tai Geng Divine Lord and Zhou Chun naturally would not object anymore. They then witnessed him leaving behind a fake body made of green wood and quietly leaving Jiulong Ridge.
To Zhou Chun's surprise, although they saw that Venerable Changchun had left behind a false body, they could not sense anything unusual unless they observed it closely.
This fake Aoki body may not have any combat power, but it is indeed very impressive that it can deceive people's senses by being so realistic.
With this fake body, there is indeed a great chance of deceiving those sixth-level alien experts!
After examining the fake body left behind by Venerable Changchun, Venerable Taigeng chose to rest and recover here, guarding the fake body.
After treating his own injuries, Zhou Chun went to comfort Ye Qingxuan and the other cultivators of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect.
The Nine Yuan Sword Sect suffered heavy losses in this great battle.
Three Nascent Soul stage sword cultivators alone perished, more than twenty Golden Core stage disciples fell, and one or two thousand disciples of other cultivation levels also perished!
This is only the loss of personnel; the greater loss lies in the near-complete collapse of its protective mountain formation, and the destruction of various precious spiritual plants and medicines in the mountain.
If Ye Qingxuan hadn't been alive, the Nine Yuan Sword Sect would have basically fallen out of the top tier of major powers after suffering such a severe blow!
Therefore, when Zhou Chun summoned the few surviving Nascent Soul stage cultivators of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect, their expressions were extremely grim, and they exuded a strong aura of sorrow.
He expressed his deep remorse for this, and said softly, "It was truly thanks to the efforts of Fellow Daoist Ye and your Nine Yuan Sword Sect that we were able to successfully delay Senior Changchun's arrival. I am deeply sorry and regretful for the fall and sacrifice of the fellow Daoists of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect. Please accept my condolences, Fellow Daoist Ye!"
At this point, his expression turned solemn, and he said with a serious tone, "However, please rest assured, Fellow Daoist Ye and fellow Daoists of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect, Zhou and Senior Tai Geng have seen your efforts and sacrifices. After the war, we will certainly reward you handsomely and will not let you shed blood and tears!"
Hearing his words, Ye Qingxuan, despite being in extremely poor condition, still mustered his spirits and replied emphatically, "Senior Chun Jun, you flatter me. Even seniors like Tai Geng and you, Nascent Soul cultivators, are fighting to the death for the human race. How can we, as one of the billions of beings of the human race, retreat when our race is in peril?"
At this point, the man spoke with a resounding tone: "Since our founder established the Nine Yuan Sword Sect, we have always been a sharp sword for humanity against other races. As disciples of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect, to die in the war against other races is a worthy death. To die to stop a sixth-tier expert from another race is an unparalleled honor!"
"If the ancestors of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect were alive today, they would surely be proud and gratified by the actions of us, their descendants!"
clap clap.
Zhou Chun immediately clapped his hands, saying with admiration, "Well said! I only knew that Fellow Daoist Ye's sword intent was outstanding before, but I didn't expect him to have such insight into matters of principle. It's truly admirable!"
Having said that, he boldly declared, "I, Zhou, have never been one to boast, but this time I can make a promise to you: within a thousand years, I will ensure that your Nine Yuan Sword Sect regains its former glory, surpassing even its past achievements!"
Upon hearing his words, several Nascent Soul stage cultivators from the Nine Yuan Sword Sect, including Ye Qingxuan, were overjoyed, and the sorrow on their faces immediately faded considerably.
No one would doubt a promise made in person by a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Moreover, Zhou Chun is now clearly representing not only himself, but also Tai Geng Divine Venerable, and even Changchun Venerable!
"Many thanks, Senior Chun Jun. On behalf of all the disciples of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect, we express our deepest gratitude for your kindness!"
Ye Qingxuan immediately bowed to Zhou Chunshen to express his gratitude.
Upon seeing this, the others quickly followed suit, bowing deeply and saying, "We thank Senior Chun Jun for his great kindness!"
After calming down the cultivators of the Nine Yuan Sword Sect, Zhou Chun returned to recuperate.
He had already suffered a significant injury, and there are likely to be tough battles ahead, so he will naturally try to recover as much as possible while he can.
Less than two days later, Zhou Chun discovered during his patrol that the aura of the Golden Horned Dragon Saint had disappeared.
This startled him slightly, but he immediately realized that Venerable Changchun must have found out from his investigation in Longyuan.
Sure enough, another day passed, and Venerable Changchun returned to the Great Zhou Kingdom, recounting what he had gained from his trip.
"The matter has been investigated and clarified. The reason why Golden Horned Dragon Saint is lingering here is that Longyuan is holding a blood sacrifice ceremony for Azure Phoenix Demon Saint to help him return to the sixth rank!"
"He's well-prepared. There's a treasured heirloom of the Flood Dragon Clan there. This treasure has already formed a symbiotic relationship with the Dragon Abyss Water Eye, and can mobilize the power of the Water Eye. An ordinary early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator might actually be dragged into the Water Eye and suppressed in that environment!"
"But there's no need to worry now. I've already disrupted and stopped her blood sacrifice ritual, and injured the Azure Phoenix Demon Saint again. She won't be able to make any progress anytime soon!"
At this point, Venerable Changchun frowned and said, "As far as I know, the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Sacrifice Ritual requires not only the sacrifice of many specific types of demonic beasts, but also the assistance of special treasures. However, such treasures should have been destroyed by our human ancestors in ancient times. I wonder where the Golden Horned Dragon Saint and the others obtained this item!"
Upon hearing this, the Divine Lord Tai Geng immediately said, "Perhaps it was left behind by some secret inheritance, or it could be a replica!"
After saying that, he added, "But none of that matters anymore. Now that the possibility of the Azure Phoenix Demon Saint returning to the sixth rank has been eliminated, this war can end as soon as possible!"
"Yes, let's end this war as soon as possible!"
Venerable Changchun glanced at him and nodded in approval.
At this moment, Golden Horn Dragon Saint returned to Dragon Abyss. The opposing alien alliance only had two seriously wounded soldiers and one lightly wounded soldier left. How could they possibly be a match for Venerable Changchun, who was in perfect condition!
Without even experiencing any intense battle, [Wind Demon Lion] and Huo Lan of the Triangle Clan quickly fled the battlefield, while Lei Zhen had already escaped before Venerable Changchun even made his move.
However, Venerable Changchun did not give up easily this time and directly launched a pursuit of the [Wind Demon Lion].
With the sixth-tier powerhouses defeated, the allied forces of the Triangular Race and the Multi-Winged Race were naturally no longer capable of accomplishing anything.
Zhou Chun didn't even need to take action to launch a dimensional reduction attack; the cultivators who came from all over the human race to provide support were enough to defeat this allied army.
Compared to these alien allied forces that know how to escape, the [Blue-Faced Demon Bee] insects that have already multiplied are more troublesome.
These demonic insects are now found throughout the Great Zhou Kingdom, and even in neighboring countries. Large swarms can number in the millions, while smaller swarms may only have a few hundred.
In addition, these demonic insects fly very fast, requiring Foundation Establishment stage cultivators to catch up with even a first-tier demonic insect. They also know how to burrow through mountains, making them quite difficult to eradicate!
Because of these demonic insects, the once prosperous Great Zhou Kingdom is now littered with bones, and there is not a rooster crowing for miles around. It is truly a tragic state of affairs!
Zhou Chun specially arranged for some members of the Zhou family to come and help clean up the pests.
At the same time, he also summoned the demon kings and spirit pets who remained in Jing Kingdom to come to Da Zhou Kingdom to join him and participate in the upcoming counterattack.
Yes, a counterattack!
This time, the human race does not intend to stop after defeating the alien alliance, but rather to launch a counterattack into the Dolan Grassland and truly inflict heavy losses on the Multiwing Clan and the Triangle Clan!
In any case, the turbid evil energy has now dissipated by more than half, and the human race has invented the treasure of talisman jade, so they have all the basic conditions to launch a counterattack against the alien races.
Half a month later, with the main force of the alien alliance having basically retreated to the Dolan Grassland, Venerable Changchun finally returned.
He chased the Wind Demon Lion for half a month, but in the end, the Demon Saint managed to escape by taking advantage of a natural danger zone in the Wilderness of Ten Thousand Beasts.
However, the half-month chase brought the [Wind Demon Lion] an unforgettable memory, and even brought his true blood body to the brink of collapse!
In this battle, Venerable Changchun truly demonstrated to all the alien races that his peak mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation was not just for show.
With the return of Venerable Changchun to oversee things, Zhou Chun did not hesitate to command the various armies of the Great Zhou Dynasty to march towards the Dolan Grassland.
This time, they didn't bring too many low-level cultivators. The lowest cultivation level was Foundation Establishment. The key to victory is quality, not quantity. They wanted to use their strong mobility and endurance to sweep through the various tribes of the Multiwinged Tribe on the Dolan Grassland and let these alien races taste the bitterness of losing their homes and families!
The flames of war were burning across the Dolan Grassland, with plumes of smoke rising everywhere. Wherever there were tribes on the grassland, flames would rise.
Within just one month, the flames of war reached the shores of Muli Lake, deep in the Dolan Grassland!
The allied forces of the Triangle Clan and the Multiwing Clan have been completely defeated, and the two sides seem to have had a falling out. The strong members of the Triangle Clan have begun to retreat to their own territory.
Lei Zhen, the sixth-tier expert of the Multiwinged Clan, dared not show himself at this moment.
Having lost his physical body, even if he possessed a fellow mage of his clan, he would not be able to recover his strength in a short time. How could he dare to appear in front of Venerable Changchun!
However, he did do something, though.
After nearly two-thirds of the multi-winged tribes were ravaged by war, he used the method of soul possession to possess a multi-winged holy mage and came before Zhou Chun.
The holy mage possessed by him appeared before Zhou Chun, his face contorted with rage as he roared, "Chun Jun, haven't you killed enough? If my multi-winged race truly ceases to exist in this world, I will no longer have any scruples, and you know the consequences!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Lei Zhen, are you threatening me?"
"So what if it's a threat? If you don't believe me, feel free to try!"
After saying this, the holy mage possessed by Lei Zhen turned and left.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun's expression darkened, and he immediately said in a deep voice, "Fine, your threat has worked. I will order an immediate halt to the advance. From now on, the area east of the west bank of Muli Lake will no longer be the territory of the Multi-Winged Clan. This is punishment for your repeated invasions of my human race!"
Without waiting for the holy mage possessed by Lei Zhen to agree, he raised his hand and with a wave, a golden blade of light sliced the holy mage in two on the spot. (End of this chapter)
