Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor.

Two demon generals appeared at once.

Did we just poke a hornet's nest of the Demon King?

Mu Chang and Mu Gu's expressions changed slightly, and they secretly cried out that things were bad.

We left too late.

The most unwanted scene had appeared.

Mu Gu's heart sank, and he transmitted a message through his divine sense:

"Senior brother, I'm afraid they already discovered us when I was scouting."

"Don't panic!"

As he spoke, the two acted in unison, and the moment their divine sense detected the approaching demons, they flicked their sleeves.

In a flash of spiritual light,

two clouds of mist exploded, and from each cloud, two tiger and leopard mechanical beasts, each ten feet tall with sharp claws and fangs, jumped out, protecting the two in a circle.

This was one of the advantages that "cultivators" had when facing innate martial masters and demons.

They possessed powerful divine senses, were generally extremely quick-witted, and were not easily ambushed by powerful enemies.

Even if an infiltrator had amazing breath concealment techniques, a "cultivator" would inexplicably have a premonition if they had a sudden whim.

Right now, that was the situation. At the critical moment, the two sensed an approaching aura, locked on with their divine sense, and avoided being ambushed.

"Little Jujube, get rid of them."

Bai Zhu's pink and tender little face was full of ruthlessness, and he had no intention of wasting words with the two.

Seeing that the other party had locked onto him with their divine sense, he attacked without saying a word, his figure transforming into a ball of wind with lightning, and he charged over.

Initially, the wind ball that Bai Zhu transformed into was just a small ball, but the thunder and lightning wind ball grew against the wind, and in an instant, it turned into a fox shape, its size not inferior to the mechanical beasts.

This was precisely the innate divine ability [Wind and Thunder Body] that Bai Zhu awakened after advancing from a "acquired demon beast" to an "innate demon beast," allowing him to control the power of wind and thunder.

The four "innate level" wooden puppet mechanical beasts immediately blocked Bai Zhu's path, their bodies flashing with green light, and they spat out rolling flames towards the wind and thunder giant fox.

"Puff, puff, puff ~"

The wooden puppet mechanical beasts could control fire, and they could also use their own wood spirit qi as fuel, wood generating fire, spitting out flames continuously, the fire becoming stronger and stronger, extremely terrifying.

This could be considered the specialty of the Wooden Puppet Sect.

The individual strength of the wooden puppet mechanical beasts was not too great. Whether it was spells or close combat, they could not compare with genuine demon beasts or innate martial masters.

But once they were in groups of three or five, working together, the power they displayed would undergo a qualitative change.

That was the case right now. The four wooden puppet mechanical beasts simultaneously spat out flames, and the four pillars of fire blocked Bai Zhu's path, turning the surroundings into a sea of fire in an instant, the fire becoming more and more intense.

Ordinary innate demon beasts, once contaminated, would be trapped under the sea of fire, unable to escape for a while, and it would be normal to be roasted alive.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"

Seeing the fire waves rolling towards him, Bai Zhu didn't panic at all. A gust of wind rose from the surroundings, isolating the surrounding flames and turning into a giant flame wind shield.

For a time, Bai Zhu blocked the flames spat out by the four wooden puppet mechanical beasts.

It was just that the fire was too fierce, and he could not break through for a while.

Fortunately, Bai Zhu was not alone.

Seeing that Bai Zhu was under siege, Little Jujube was immediately furious, and thunder erupted, with lightning flashing on the emerald leaves of the small tree branch.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Seven or eight lightning spears wrapped in lightning shot out in succession, bombarding the wooden puppet mechanical beasts.

The wooden puppet mechanical beasts had long been wary of Little Jujube, and they dodged in time. Most of the lightning spears dodged past, and only one mechanical beast was hit by a lightning spear.

In this kind of chaotic battle, it was normal to be injured. The wooden puppet mechanical beasts were not afraid of death. As long as the core formation was not damaged, under normal circumstances, it would not affect their combat power at all.

However, Little Jujube's lightning spear was different. The Jiamu Yang Lightning it shot was the ultimate wood divine lightning, extremely yang and extremely strong. Moreover, it was born from a thunder-struck evil-repelling divine wood, and the lightning contained the five elements. The lightning fire shot by the lightning spear was extremely extraordinary.

The wooden puppet mechanical beast, which was not afraid of the raging fire, withstood the bombardment of the lightning fire explosion after being hit by the lightning spear. It did not fall apart at the first blow, but bursts of lightning fire rose from its body, wantonly burning its body.

The wooden puppet mechanical beast instinctively activated its cyan spiritual power to extinguish the lightning fire.

However, no matter how it tried to extinguish it, it could not be extinguished, and it had a tendency to intensify.

Seeing this, Mu Chang and Mu Gu quickly made hand seals, using their own power to bless and assist the wooden puppet mechanical beast.

Perhaps it was because of the two's spell blessing that the cyan light around the wooden puppet mechanical beast that had been hit by the lightning spear became even stronger, finally suppressing the constantly spreading lightning fire and constantly extinguishing it.

However, Little Jujube on the other side was not resting, and another Jiamu Yang Lightning spear was condensed in its hand.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

With Little Jujube's firepower support, the four mechanical puppet beasts messed up their formation, and the suppression of Bai Zhu was greatly reduced at once.

There were flaws in the tightly controlled sea of fire.

Bai Zhu seized the opportunity, with wind and thunder rolling around him, his speed was swift and fierce, charging left and right, trying to break through the wooden puppet mechanical beasts' fire sea defense line, extremely fierce.

For a time, the battle arena became chaotic.

"What a powerful lightning fire, what a fierce fox demon."

Mu Gu witnessed the power of the lightning fire, his heart filled with horror, and he secretly cried out that things were bad.

It was rumored that this Divine Doctor Qiu had a great destiny, and powerful demon beasts actively sought refuge with him. It seemed that the rumors were true.

Right now, the four wooden puppet mechanical beasts under their command were restrained by the "wood spirit's" lightning fire, and there was also a wind and thunder demon fox threatening them. They had not been defeated for a while, but judging from the situation, they would not be able to hold on for long.

However, he did not feel that the "wood spirit" in front of him was familiar at all, and he did not associate the wood spirit in front of him with the wood spirit demon general under "Yuan Hua."

The two were too different, and he did not associate them in this way.

"Swoosh!"

Just as Mu Gu was shocked by the strength and ferocity of Little Jujube and Bai Zhu, a whistling sound exploded in his ears.

"Junior brother, be careful!"

Mu Chang's divine sense was even more powerful, and he noticed it at the first moment. He made a hand seal, and a cyan light shot out, turning into a cyan light wooden shield, blocking in front of Mu Gu.

"Bang!"

An arrow with terrifying force hit the "cyan light wooden shield."

Only a loud noise was heard, and the "cyan light wooden shield" immediately shattered, and a surge of tyrannical air pushed Mu Gu back several steps.

"What a terrifying arrow."

Mu Gu was shocked and fearful.

With his extensive knowledge, he could tell at a glance that this arrow was probably from a twenty-stone heavy bow.

If he had been hit by this arrow, he would have been seriously injured even if he had not died.

"Senior brother, it was Divine Doctor Qiu who attacked. He is probably already an acquired fifth-level martial master, and he is gifted, actually able to draw a twenty-stone heavy bow."

With an archer secretly attacking, Mu Gu and Mu Chang, who had rich fighting experience, did not dare to be careless and immediately cast protective spells.

The two acted in unison, and they each sacrificed a round bead magic weapon.

The round bead magic weapon emitted cyan light, like a罩zi covering the two.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

In the sea of fire, arrows with the force of a thousand jun broke through the wooden puppet mechanical beasts' defense line and shot in one after another.

However, the cyan light shield was extremely powerful.

Even if they hit the two, they could not break the cyan light shield, but only knocked them far away to the ground, making the cyan light shield a little dimmer.

However, the two quickly cast spells again to maintain the cyan light shield. During this period, they repeatedly used ghostly movements to avoid the secretly attacking arrows.

"Senior brother, this Divine Doctor Qiu is really difficult to deal with. He has two demon generals under his command, and his archery is so superb. It seems that it is very possible that that old fellow Yuan Hua died in his hands."

Mu Chang's expression was gloomy: “Perhaps, this is a good thing!”

“A good thing?”

Mu Gu was a little surprised: “Senior Brother, what do you mean?”

“That Divine Doctor Qiu probably possesses a great destiny. His current good fortune is likely earned through his own hard work, rather than having a powerful figure backing him. If he only has two demon beasts under his command, then the situation isn't too bad.”

Mu Chang's thoughts were extremely clear, and his expression turned fierce.

“Junior Brother, cast a spell and fight him.”

Just now, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he consistently advocated for leaving as the best option, not wanting to take risks.

But now, facing the siege of two great demon generals, it wouldn't be easy for them to escape.

Especially with that Wind Lightning Spirit Fox, its speed is extremely fast. For the two of them, fleeing without a fight would be the most foolish choice.

Having stumbled upon someone else's secret and completely offended them, they only have one choice in the current situation: to fight and gain an advantage. Only then will they have a choice.

Mu Gu was overjoyed and a little excited:

“Senior Brother, could it be that you want to use that spell?”

“That's right!”

Mu Chang's expression was calm, but his eyes were full of fierceness:

“Since it's a fight to the death, then don't consider anything else. We'll take him down even if it damages our foundation.”

“Good, Senior Brother, I've been waiting for you to say that.”

Mu Gu looked excited. Having encountered such a great opportunity, he was unwilling to leave.

Now that he heard his Senior Brother say this, he readily agreed.

As he spoke, Mu Chang took out a "Wooden Figure" from his sleeve. His left hand formed a yang seal, and his right hand covered it with a yin seal. He bit his fingertip and wrote "Heart, Liver, Spleen, Lungs, Kidneys" in blood on the yellow paper.

On the other side, Mu Gu followed suit and did the same.

The incantation went:

“Willow Spirit Lad, Willow Spirit Lad, born beside the desolate ancient road, I now invite you to be a divine general, to be spared from the wind and frost in the wilderness. Offer sacrifices to you at the four seasons and eight festivals, and let you taste the fragrant gruel first every day. Majestic yin and yang, the sun rises in the east...”

As the two recited the incantation and cast the spell, their faces turned pale, as if their bodies had been emptied.

In contrast, the “Wooden Figure” in Mu Chang's hand, after being sacrificed, suddenly “came to life,” and a great cyan light burst forth from its body.

In an instant, it transformed into a giant tree person ten zhang tall, with weeping willows swaying, emitting a sky full of cyan light, scattering all around.

Perhaps with the cyan light enhancement from the giant tree person, the Wooden Puppet Mechanism Beast, which was originally in a state of decline, suddenly came to life. The burning thunder and fire on its body were extinguished, and the flames spewing from its mouth became even more tyrannical, forcing Bai Shu back again.

Not only was Bai Shu forced back, but under the leadership of the giant tree person, the Wooden Puppet Mechanism Beast spewed flames, attacking Little Jujube. The rolling flames turned into fire dragons, forcing Little Jujube to retreat while fighting.

The situation reversed in a few moves.

“As expected of Yin Divinity experts!”

Three miles away, Qiu Zhen was a little surprised when he saw the two men's methods.

"Yuan Hua" was seriously injured, and the middle-aged fat man from the Wooden Puppet Sect was killed by him using the "right timing" and driving thunder, basically effortlessly.

Now, he was facing Yin Divinity experts head-on.

Originally, he thought that with two demon generals under his command, he might not have to risk exposing himself as a cultivator and use spells and divine abilities to take down the enemy.

Obviously, he thought too simply.

Yin Divinity experts each possess profound spells and divine abilities, making them not so easy to deal with.

“Fortunately, I am now also a proper Yin Divinity cultivator.”

Qiu Zhen felt fortunate in his heart.

The two men in front of him possessed remarkable divine abilities. If he hadn't cultivated the "Leakless Body" and started practicing the [Dragon and Tiger Intercourse Diagram], he would probably not be able to deal with them relying solely on the [Golden Light Thunder Talisman].

After officially advancing to the [Night Wanderer] realm, with the intercourse of dragon and tiger, and the harmony of water and fire, after cultivating the Primordial Qi, his thunder techniques had also taken a step further.

Immediately, he drew an arrow from his back, drew his bow, and aimed, using his Primordial Spirit Dharma Body to deduce and lock onto the strongest of the two.

“Zzzzz!”

On the bowstring of the [Dragon Shooting Heavy Bow], a golden thunder talisman appeared out of thin air, attached to the arrow, and the entire arrow was entangled with lightning.

At first glance, it looked like the [Golden Light Thunder Talisman].

But in reality, this talisman was an advanced thunder technique of the [Golden Light Thunder Talisman], containing the "Primordial Qi" he cultivated. It was the [Primordial Qi Thunder Talisman] that Qiu Zhen had newly mastered, containing the changes of yin and yang, and its power was much stronger than the [Golden Light Thunder Talisman].

Under the bright moon, Qiu Zhen locked onto his target, drawing the bow like a full moon, reflecting the bright moon in the sky.

“Whoosh!”

The arrow entangled with lightning seemed to turn into a streak of electric light, astonishingly fast, instantly breaking through the blockade of the sea of fire and the Wooden Puppet Mechanism Beast, heading straight for Mu Chang.

The two were accustomed to the occasional arrows shot at them, and relying on the cyan light spell shield to protect them, they were not too worried.

Ordinary Acquired Martial Masters, even if they could draw a heavy bow of twenty stones, generally couldn't hurt them, unless it was an Innate Martial Master, or a group of Acquired Martial Masters shooting arrows, breaking the shield in a short time.

At first, the two didn't pay much attention. Upon hearing the sound of the arrow, they subconsciously used their movements to dodge.

However, at that moment, Mu Gu's divine sense caught sight of the “lightning-entangled” arrow. His pupils shrank, and he keenly sensed the danger.

Lightning Arrow

“Senior Brother, danger, he is actually an Innate Martial Master!!”

Mu Chang also noticed the abnormality at the first moment. He, who had always been calm, was now a little panicked.

An arrow shot by an Innate Martial Master was not the same as one shot by an Acquired Martial Master.

No matter how strong an Acquired Martial Master was, one person couldn't break his spell, but if an Innate Martial Master took action, adding the power of thunder, the situation would be different. Once hit, the consequences would be disastrous.

Under the crisis of life and death, the qi and blood in Mu Chang's body boiled, and his physical body exploded with astonishing speed, like a phantom.

He dodged sideways.

Barely dodged.

Mu Chang saw the lightning arrow graze past him, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, his heart full of relief.

Fortunately, he was vigilant.

“Junior Brother, the opponent is tricky, we can't fight head-on, let's find a chance to retreat.”

Mu Chang was extremely calm. Dodging once was fortunate, but he couldn't be so fortunate every time. Immediately, he didn't hesitate and urged his Junior Brother.

However, at the very moment he transmitted his divine sense, a flashing lightning appeared in front of him.

It was precisely the arrow he had dodged sideways.

It had actually made a turn and shot over again.

Only a “噗嗤” sound was heard, and the lightning-entangled arrow pierced through the cyan light shield.

The arrow pierced his body, directly pinning him to the ground.

The lightning instantly paralyzed his consciousness, and terrifying thunder and fire burned on his body, burning his flesh, and also scorching his Yin Divinity.

“Ah, ah, ah, ah~”

Mu Chang let out an extremely painful howl.

However, his painful wailing didn't last long.

In just a short moment, he was silent.

“He's dead…”

Mu Gu, who was on the side, saw his Senior Brother's aura disappear at once, his face full of horror. Through the sea of fire, he looked into the distance and saw a teenager holding a large bow on a distant hill:

“So, you are also a cultivator…”
