I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World
Chapter 421 - 380: Phoenix Nest
The flames swept across the Blood Qilin’s body, burning away the surrounding pollen. Jiang Yuebai’s Spiritual Snake Spear pierced through the air with a strange whistling sound, followed by successive dragon claw attacks, each move fierce and unforgiving.
Su Xiaoxiao stood atop the Blood Qilin’s head, two fox tails intertwined, constantly colliding with the dragon claw illusions beneath Jiang Yuebai’s spear.
A violent wind slapped against the faces of the person and the fox, one with a smile at the corner of the mouth, the other with furrowed brows.
The Blood Qilin’s horn pointed forward, and in an instant, a Green Armor Bee Swarm formed a barrier around Jiang Yuebai’s abdomen like a beehive, bursting out with flying sparks after collision.
Swish, swish, swish!
The Sword Orchid Petals spun on Jiang Yuebai’s long hair, sending out sharp and unmatched Sword Qi flying through the air. Su Xiaoxiao’s fox eyes widened as she sprang up from the ground.
The little fox flipped three times in succession mid-air, adjusting direction by stomping on the side tree trunk.
The Sword Qi pierced into the tree trunk, creating several deep pits with splinters flying everywhere.
Among the falling leaves scattered all over the sky, Su Xiaoxiao landed with arched back, her whole body covered in bristling white fur, emitting an intimidating beast sound.
Jiang Yuebai raised an eyebrow at her, the gun shadow whistling in attack, seizing the opportunity for a frenzied attack on the Blood Qilin.
The scales on the Blood Qilin’s body were hard, flames surged around its body like armor, making it difficult for Jiang Yuebai to break through the defense.
"Dragon-Elephant Seal!"
Shen Huaxi shouted crisply, his hands pressing out golden rune marks behind Jiang Yuebai, instantly filling Jiang Yuebai’s entire body with a powerful force.
Roaring through the wind!
Jiang Yuebai’s Divine Thought madly stirred the nature’s spiritual energy, one Divine Thought controlled the body to thrust the heavy spear, producing countless gun shadows densely like rain, with another Divine Thought leading the main body Leaf Hand for another killer move. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
Water Dragon Binding!
The Water Spirit Energy within a three-mile radius was instantly drained, transforming into a water dragon rushing up from beneath the Blood Qilin’s feet, encircling its body, extinguishing its flames, and binding it tightly.
Jiang Yuebai’s spear tip crazily struck the Blood Qilin, each strike, with the Dragon-Elephant Seal’s enhancement from Shen Huaxi, sent its massive body reeling, causing dazzling sparks from the collision.
The Blood Qilin struggled fiercely but couldn’t break free from the water dragon’s binding, the flames on its body grew weaker, its scales cracked, and it howled in pain.
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes were full of urgency, she charged forward recklessly, swung her claws mid-air to tear apart the water dragon landing in front of the Blood Qilin, two fox tails spiraled forward, fur and blood flew as she fiercely wrapped Jiang Yuebai’s long spear.
Jiang Yuebai paused his move, wrestling with Su Xiaoxiao’s tails.
The Blood Qilin lay dying behind Su Xiaoxiao, her charming fox eyes emitted a peculiar gentle light that enchanted the mind when it met Jiang Yuebai’s gaze.
Jiang Yuebai shuddered all over, his grip on the spear gradually loosening.
"Jiang Yuebai?"
Shen Huaxi called from behind, swiftly triggering a spell to help Jiang Yuebai break free from the Charming Technique.
Su Xiaoxiao just let out half a breath when the spear wrapped in her tail was suddenly pulled out by Jiang Yuebai.
Heavenly Dragon Tail Swing!
The long spear transformed into a colossal dragon tail, catching Su Xiaoxiao off guard and fiercely smacking her, she screamed being flung away, then entangled by the White Vine from Jiang Yuebai’s body on her ankle, smashed to the ground.
Boom!
The entire tree trunk shattered, despite the intense pain in her body, Su Xiaoxiao stepped on the falling tree debris and jumped back to a safe place.
She rolled on the ground, her body flashing with light, turning into a five or six-year-old girl, peach-colored eyes, white ears, white tail, glaring angrily at Jiang Yuebai with bared sharp teeth.
"Why...weren’t you enchanted by me?"
Su Xiaoxiao was covered in blood, as she spoke, the rushing blood poured from her mouth corner.
Jiang Yuebai first glanced back at Shen Huaxi, reassuring him not to worry, then pointed to his own eyes towards Su Xiaoxiao.
"These eyes look like eyes, but they’re not. I am from the Grass and Wood Clan, essentially without eyes, this is just a shape change ornament."
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at the Blood Qilin lying at Jiang Yuebai’s feet, knowing she couldn’t beat Jiang Yuebai today.
This guy not only knows Demon Art but is also proficient in Human Clan’s Magical Technique and Martial Arts, capable of deploying multiple moves at once, defensively overwhelming, with an extraordinary person supporting him, it’s just too bullying for a fox!
Missing Emperor’s Liquid this time is no big deal, she’s still young, battle could wait for another sixty years, sixty years to her is merely a few sleeps, first she needs to deal with the bastard who tore her tail!
"What exactly is your origin, name yourself!" Su Xiaoxiao asked ferociously with bared teeth.
Jiang Yuebai quite admired this little fox, able to rush to rescue the Blood Qilin, a rarity among the Demon Clan.
"A little grass in the wilderness, but I have a name among the Human Clan, called Chenzhou Wanderer."
Su Xiaoxiao furrowed her brows, "Chenzhou? Does it mean capsizing a boat?"
Jiang Yuebai:......
"I’ve remembered you, Shipwreck Grass. Just you wait, when I grow up, I’ll come back and have a life-and-death battle with you! Blood Qilin, let’s go!"
The Blood Qilin whimpered, unable to get up, while Yousu Xiaoxiao angrily kicked the tree.
"If you don’t help, I’ll pee on you right now!"
Jiang Yuebai: ???
How can she threaten a Divine Tree? This little fox is really arrogant.
The leaves of the tree canopy began to shake, rustling, and a few tree vines hung down from above, wrapping around the Blood Qilin and Yousu Xiaoxiao, gently lowering them.
Shen Huaxi walked up and said, "Yousu Xiaoxiao is indeed the youngest among the demons participating this time, no more than six years old in human years."
Jiang Yuebai showed a surprised expression, "So skilled at six? I was just entering the Heavenly Interence Sect at six, what a promising future!"
"The Qingqiu Fox Clan is born long-lived and intelligent, yet they have a harder time cultivating. The Human Clan is short-lived but endowed with exceptional talents in cultivation. Both have their advantages and disadvantages."
Jiang Yuebai looked up at the sky; it was already dark. Tonight at 11:00 PM was the time when the Moonlight Flowing Cup would begin.
"Let’s go. The treetop shouldn’t be far now."
The two continued searching for a way up, twisting and turning for more than half an hour, finally breaking out from the tree canopy to see the bright moon hanging in the sky, and stars stretching across the heavens.
Shen Huaxi looked up, "Standing here, I finally understand the feeling of ’pluck the stars with your hand’."
"Not dizzy anymore?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
Shen Huaxi’s body tensed; he had been captivated by the beauty and forgotten about it. As Jiang Yuebai brought it up, he couldn’t help but glance down, immediately stumbling backward, feeling weak all over, and barely managed to stand by grabbing the tree trunk.
The view was vast and boundless, only the sound of the wind roared, with no sight of mountains or land.
Fortunately, the clouds were thick, obscuring the ground. Otherwise, Shen Huaxi would surely collapse.
Jiang Yuebai gazed into the distance and saw a wooden bridge, where an old monkey squatted. Behind it was a colossal bird’s nest, with no divine bird in sight, only two bird eggs larger than a person, and a dozen fiery red feathers.
"Phoenix Feather!"
Jiang Yuebai’s eyes lit up and hurriedly walked onto the bridge. The bridge was long, and the old monkey blocked the middle.
The old monkey saw someone approaching, didn’t raise its head, and looked at its feet while asking, "Heavenly Dao leans left, the sun and moon move west, Earthly Dao leans right, rivers flow east. Do you think I’m taking the left or right foot first when walking?"
Hearing the question, Jiang Yuebai raised an eyebrow.
Shen Huaxi caught up, pondering and frowning, "As long as you can walk, it doesn’t matter which foot you step with first."
The old monkey looked up, "Someone just said that too, but since you have two feet, there must be a first and a second."
Jiang Yuebai scratched an eyebrow, "If you really can’t tell, I have a method. I’ll chop off both your feet, so you won’t walk anymore, eliminating all such worries."
With that, Jiang Yuebai shot a White Vine toward the old monkey’s feet.
The old monkey’s scalp tightened, and it jumped away in fright.
"See, when escaping for your life, you don’t care about which foot. You’re just too idle, thinking up such questions!"
Jiang Yuebai shouted from behind, stepping forward.
Just then, a gust of wind suddenly attacked from behind both of them. Jiang Yuebai furrowed her brows, instinctively dodging.
The wind rushed past her and then turned to strike heavily on the wooden bridge below!
Boom!
The wooden bridge was hit, and both ends lifted, breaking in the middle.
Jiang Yuebai shot out a White Vine from her hand, wrapping around the nearest tree branch, while Shen Huaxi firmly grabbed her other arm, suspending her in mid-air.
Shen Huaxi’s forehead veins bulged, desperately resisting the suppression from the Divine Tree, flapping his wings to support Jiang Yuebai.
Both looked up to see Yu Xiao, who was supposed to have left, standing at the other end of the broken bridge. His eyes were sinister with a tinge of guilt, clutching a jade talisman that looked extraordinary.
"I’m sorry, my mother has saved up for years to buy me these things to handle this Divine Sacrifice. I can’t let her down, I’m really sorry."
Yu Xiao apologized, then turned to run toward the Phoenix Nest, but as he turned, he collided with a white-haired, white-robed figure, being knocked to the ground by the counterforce.
Yu Xiao looked up to identify the person, and then anxiously checked back to see a Jiang Yuebai being held by Shen Huaxi hanging in mid-air, with yet another standing in front of him.
Jiang Yuebai coldly gazed down. She possessed the characteristic of the Undying Vine, usually splitting her main body into three parts for study. Out of caution, she secretly sent a vine over while dealing with the old monkey earlier.
"Your skills are mediocre, yet your greed is great. To betray your saviors, you indeed have a heart!"
With that, Jiang Yuebai unhesitatingly kicked Yu Xiao.
"Off you go!"
