body with a reincarnation seal, at any cost!Jiang Mu's mouth widened in disbelief, his face full of astonishment. "Even more terrifying than the Xian Tian Body""Uncle Ginger, in this world, the strong...The elderly, women, and children of the two villages were now hiding in the valley, each with a look of fear on their faces, staring intently at the battlefield outside.
After nearly half an hour had passed, Xiao Yun, who had been sitting cross-legged within the formation all along, suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. His body then directly arched backward and collapsed.
Just as he saw the aura emanating from the formation enveloping the powerful cultivator of the Inroad Realm, it began to shake violently before finally dissipating.
Xiao Yun had old injuries, and over the years, his cultivation not only didn't improve but constantly declined.
Now that the strong-arm tactic has been held for so long, it's finally reached its limit. It no longer holds any power and allowed that In-Dao realm expert to break free!
This was a thin old woman, her face creased with wrinkles. But in her small eyes there shone two piercing lights.
After scanning the surroundings, her gaze landed on Xiao Yun's face. She gave a cold smile and said, "Xiao Yun, I had spoken kindly to you before, asking you to surrender. You didn't listen. Today, it will be the day your entire clan is wiped out!"
Xiao Yun struggled to sit up from the ground, not even bothering to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. He glared at the old woman and said, "What surrender It's just becoming a slave to your Kimura!"
"Let me tell you, even if our Xiao Clan is truly exterminated today, even if you search my soul, you won't be able to find out the secrets of our clan!"
"Quack quack!" The old woman cackled twice. "Who said I wanted to search your soul Don't worry, we have plenty of ways to get your secrets!"
The old crone suddenly raised her voice and said, "Alright, you little brats, put some muscle into it and quickly wipe out Xiao Village. Remember to cut off their heads, and after we return, rewards will be given based on your achievements!"
After she finished speaking, the old woman completely ignored Xiao Yun. A sinister smile appeared on her face, and with a flash of her figure, she vanished from where she stood.
"Yes!"
As soon as the old woman finally escaped, the morale of the people from Mulín and Liáng villages soared.
Especially the last sentence about rewarding merit and punishing transgressions really motivated them, causing them to rush towards the people of Xiao Li Er Village with all their might.
They already had the upper hand, and now they were like tigers descending a mountain, making it impossible for the people of Xiao Li Er Village to resist. They were beaten mercilessly, screaming constantly, and people kept falling.
Xiao Fu, who was relying on her speed and cold aura to entangle five powerful cultivators from the Cave Heaven realm, suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She immediately transformed into a black light without hesitation and rushed in one direction.
Although its reaction was quick enough, it was too late. Behind it, the old woman's figure had already emerged, and with a wave of her hand, a beam of energy shot out.
Qi in the air transformed into a willow branch, constantly growing longer. It moved with incredible speed, catching up to Xiao Fu in an instant and directly winding itself around its body.
Next, the old woman continuously shot out spiritual energy from her hand, and willow branches kept wrapping around Xiaofu's body. In a short while, it was wrapped like a zongzi, unable to move.
As a demon beast of the Dongtian Realm, Xiaofu was an extremely rare existence in this ancient desolate realm where there were no demons. Naturally, the old crone wouldn't let it go.
Seeing Xiao Fu captured, the other four beasts immediately panicked.
They, too, were helpless and unable to spare the time, but the old woman's greedy gaze was already upon them.
"Haha, I don't know where you got so many monsters from, now they all belong to me, Kimura! This trip wasn't a waste after all!"
As the old woman laughed, she raised her hand again. Countless willow branches shot out, enveloping all four demon beasts.
With the help of five demon beasts lost, the situation in Xiao Li's two villages became even worse. They were utterly powerless and could only grit their teeth and struggle on.
Looking at the old woman, Xiao Yun, trapped within the formation, struggled to speak: "You're targeting our Xiao Village, but these five beasts don't belong to us. You'd best release them all!"
"Did you say something"
The old woman burst into laughter, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world. "Of course I know," she said, "that these five strange beasts are all that your new offering, someone named Gingercloud, has brought!"
But now that I've taken notice of them, from this day forward, they belong to me!
As soon as she spoke, the old woman raised her hand and beckoned. Five monsters, tightly wrapped in restraints, instantly flew towards her palm.
Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out: "Things belonging to Jiang have never been taken by anyone!"
"You're no better either!"
A beam of light several dozen feet long, like a bolt from the blue, descended from the sky and slashed straight towards the five demonic beasts enveloped in darkness.
Although the light only flashed for a moment, the willow branches on the five monster beasts vanished instantly.
Free from the willow's restraints, the five demonic beasts regained their liberty and instantly scattered in all directions.
The old woman ignored the five demon beasts and instead looked up towards the direction the voice had come from. She saw a man in black standing there, his eyes blazing with ferocity, yet his face was covered in a layer of frost-like coldness—Ginger Cloud!
Jiang Yun hurried all the way, finally arriving just in time.
As soon as he arrived, he saw that five demonic beasts had been captured by someone. He immediately cast a spell and severed the willow branches binding them.
With the appearance of Ginger Cloud and the return of five demonic beasts to the ranks, this time it was the turn of Xiao Li Er Village's morale to soar.
The old woman let out a cold smile and said, “You are the shrine attendant of Xiao Village!”
Ginger Cloud remained silent. He had already discovered that the opponent was also a powerful cultivator at the Dao Spirit Realm. Such a strong cultivator was simply beyond his reach, so his mind raced, constantly searching for ways to avert the crisis facing Xiao Village today.
The old woman continued, "I didn't expect you to come back so soon. That's good too, it saves me having to find you later."
"Today, I will take you back! No matter where you come from, your family elders will have to come to my village of Kimura to redeem you!"
Although the old woman was ordered not to kill Ginger Cloud, she could capture him if they met. She was to wait until after Xiao Village was destroyed before releasing him.
The old woman spread her five fingers and pressed them down hard on the empty space where Jiang Yun stood.
"Hum!"
Then he saw countless wisps of spiritual energy bursting forth from her withered five fingers, all transforming into willow branches that covered the sky and earth.
Ginger Cloud's vision suddenly darkened, as if she was in an endless world of willow branches. Around her were willow branches that seemed to be alive, dancing and swaying constantly.
Jiang Yun knew very well that as long as he touched any of the willow branches, he would suffer the same fate as Xiaofu and the others before him, being enveloped layer by layer by these willow branches.
"Snow!"
Jiang Yun's internal spiritual energy surged out as well, transforming into a flurry of snowflakes that filled the sky. The surrounding temperature plummeted instantly, freezing the willow branches solid.
Next, Ginger Cloud raised her hand and, with all her might, smashed it down onto the frozen willow branch in front of her.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, Jiang Yun finally broke free, which also surprised the old woman. She didn't expect Jiang Yun to be able to break through her attack so quickly.
The old woman cackled twice, “You do have some skill, but today you can’t escape the palm of my hand!”
Just as the old woman was about to unleash her attack again, a cold and emotionless voice echoed from above the sky.
Although this young master enjoys watching fights, he dislikes seeing people take advantage of their age!
First released on the Traditional Chinese Novel Network tone, Jiang Yun's face instantly lit up with joy. He stood up and bowed deeply to Dan Daozi out of respect.Dandaizi, after receiving Jiangyun's bow, closed his eyes, and then suddenly opened them, sa...
