Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor-Chapter 1261: Fleeting Firework of Blossoms

"So it turns out to be a 'Man-faced Blood-wing Flower' that has become a spirit!"

With Yun Xiao's understanding of foreign spirits, he had already recognized its identity at first glance at that peculiar spirit. He also knew that the reason why this guy could speak human language wasn't because its cultivation level had reached the realm of Heavenly Spirit, but for other reasons.

"Man-faced Blood-wing Flower? What kind of thing is that?"

In contrast, the various human cultivators below had never heard of such a special foreign spirit. Even the three members of the Shenxiao Sect, known for their intelligence, exchanged confused glances with each other.

However, seeing Yun Xiao's face remain calm, and even with a faint hint of mockery, the large stone weighing on Wu Yingjiang's heart fell a bit. After all, that ragged boy was not as flustered as he had imagined.

Only Yun Xiao knew that the so-called Man-faced Blood-wing Flower was an extremely rare mutant plant on the continent. It is rumored only to be born in places saturated with the blood energy of numerous humans or vein demons, making it an eerie plant.

The Man-faced Blood-wing Flower, after absorbing piled-up blood energy, inherently possesses a rich blood attribute. It is famous for its flower resembling a human face and for possessing two large wings.

The foreign spirit cultivated from this Man-faced Blood-wing Flower naturally can speak human language. It even has wings, appearing no different from a flying beast pulse demon. Therefore, it often gets mistaken for a Heaven Rank Third Realm spirit, causing fear before the battle even begins.

"You human child, you certainly know a lot!"

The Man-faced Blood-wing Flower didn't get angry after Yun Xiao directly recognized its essence. Instead, it said coldly, "From your impressive cultivation, I can see your future has great potential, but you should never, ever, have provoked me in Moyun City. Today, here will be your burial place!"

The wit of this Man-faced Blood-wing Flower spirit was indeed remarkable, as it spoke human language without the slightest difficulty. Its words were articulate, capturing the essence of human speech.

"Oh? You presume to achieve this with only your Half-step Heavenly Spirit cultivation?"

As the spirit's voice fell, a cold smile also appeared on Yun Xiao's face. Only when this voice rang out did the many human cultivators below realize that this so-called Man-faced Blood-wing Flower spirit was not the terrifying Heavenly Spirit but merely a Half-step Heavenly Spirit.

"That's a relief, that's a relief!"

Even Wu Yingjiang patted his chest. As long as it wasn't a true Heavenly Spirit expert, with Yun Xiao's strength, even if he couldn't win, he shouldn't lose. This was already a huge solace.

"Human child, I can feel it. You have something within you that excites me. Let your flesh and blood become the aid for me to break through to the Heavenly Spirit rank!"

Hearing Yun Xiao's disdainful voice, the peculiar face on the Man-faced Blood-wing Flower spirit instead showed a strange smile. Even its bizarre tongue couldn't help but stretch out to lick its lips.

Yun Xiao's physical body had been coveted by countless beings. After his reincarnation, even he wasn't clear about the peculiarities of this body, but that didn't hinder the Man-faced Blood-wing Flower and the like from coveting his form.

After all, this Man-faced Blood-wing Flower grows by devouring the blood of humans or vein demons, and now that it had encountered Yun Xiao's delicious treasure body, of course, it wouldn't let it go.

Swoosh!

As soon as the Man-faced Blood-wing Flower spirit's excited voice concluded, it flapped its wing covered with vines. Immediately afterward, a blood-red light flashed across the sky, heading straight for Yun Xiao, not far away.

This streak of blood-colored light was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was only a few feet from Yun Xiao. At this moment, a dramatic change occurred.

Seeing the initially tiny blood-red light point close to Yun Xiao's front, it suddenly expanded with the wind, transforming in an instant into a giant blood-red flower.

It was as if someone sowed a seed in the sky, then used a special method to shorten its growth cycle to just a few breaths, directly blooming a blood flower, appearing incomparably charming.

Poof!

The bizarre thing that transformed into a giant blood flower suddenly enveloped Yun Xiao in the next moment, like a carnivorous flower, causing the numerous human cultivators below to exclaim in surprise.

"Haha, human child, this Blood-wing Flower of mine harbors a powerful devouring power. Prepare to become a dried-up corpse!"

Seeing the giant blood-red flower already enveloping Yun Xiao, the Man-faced Blood-wing Flower spirit felt immensely satisfied because it knew that the moment the opponent was enveloped, the battle was over.

It was a dignified Half-step Heavenly Spirit, whose power far exceeded those Ninth Rank advanced strange spirits. Even though it was not comparable to a true Heavenly Spirit, dealing with a human boy at the peak of the Earth Bending Realm was more than sufficient.

Although the Man-faced Blood-wing Flower had heard of Yun Xiao repeatedly slaying ten Ninth Rank advanced spirit experts, in its subconscious, it never took a human cultivator at the peak of the Earth Bending Realm seriously.

Now seeing that human boy so effortlessly defeated, unable even to dodge the Blood-wing Flower's devouring strike, it couldn't help but feel it had greatly overestimated the human boy.

"Heh heh, that treasure body which has captivated me so much will soon be mine!"

The Human-faced Blood Wing Flower Strange Spirit was somewhat smug, thinking that he could soon devour the treasure blood of that human kid, and might even break through to the Heavenly Spirit Rank, he was very excited.

"I say, aren't you getting happy a little too early?"

However, just as the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower Strange Spirit was secretly sensing the aura coming from within the blood-colored big flower, a cold voice filled with sarcasm seemed to ring right in its ear, causing it to be greatly startled.

It must be said that the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower's reaction was indeed remarkable, at least much stronger than the Ninth Rank Advanced Strange Spirit that Yun Xiao had previously killed.

Swish!

A streak of dark light swept down from above, yet it didn't strike the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower at all. The Human-faced Blood Wing Flower Strange Spirit that dodged this attack was completely baffled.

This human kid, wasn't he wrapped up by my Blood Wing Flower? How could he suddenly appear by my side and launch an attack, this is just too damn strange!

"It's an afterimage!"

Perhaps only those human cultivators below realized something at this moment, Wu Yingjiang glanced at the still-closed blood-colored big flower and spoke thoughtfully.

And at this moment, the blood-colored big flower above the sky, under the control of the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower Strange Spirit, bloomed once again, but where could the figure of "Yun Xiao" be found within it? It was completely empty.

"Kid, how dare you play me!"

By this moment, how could the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower not realize that it had been fooled by this human kid? It had been hitting an afterimage with great enthusiasm, and after all its mental activity, it turned out to be just a joke.

"You're the one who's dumb, can't blame me!"

Yun Xiao, missing with his sword strike, was not too discouraged. He still had the leisure to banter with the Strange Spirit of the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower. No matter what, in terms of eloquence, even if a hundred Human-faced Blood Wing Flower Strange Spirits combined, they wouldn't be a match for him.

"Hmph, these tricks are not enough!"

After all, the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower Strange Spirit was a Half-step Heavenly Spirit expert. Knowing that its eloquence was inferior to this human youth, it had already calmed its mind, deciding to crush the opponent with its formidable cultivation.

Swish swish swish...

Only to see the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower Strange Spirit's double wings vibrate continuously, countless blood-red light spots erupted from the wings. Each light spot looked much the same as the previous seed.

"This time, let's see how you dodge!"

The cold shout issued from the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower's mouth, clearly intending to use this overwhelming attack to make Yun Xiao unavoidable. Such afterimages could not possibly be produced in large quantities, right?

A moment later, all the human cultivators below witnessed a magnificent spectacle, only to see countless blood-red big flowers blooming across the sky, seeming to cover that part of the sky.

Surrounded by so many Blood Wing Flowers, Yun Xiao really had nowhere to run. But his means were not limited to just the shadow clone.

In fact, the stunning feats Yun Xiao had previously displayed were merely the tip of the iceberg of his numerous skills.

Thus, at this moment, surrounded by countless Blood Wing Flowers, he extended his right hand, and a similarly blood-red colored flame appeared in his palm.

The Ancestral Vein Fire fused with the Chaos Sub-fire was clearly different from before, as if there was a special aura contained within the flame, both destructive and life-giving.

No matter how strange and unpredictable the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower might be, it could not escape the category of Wood Attribute Strange Spirit. To deal with this kind of Wood Attribute Spirit, one must use Fire Attribute attacks.

Just then, at the moment when the Human-faced Blood Wing Flower sat gloating, thinking Yun Xiao had no way out, its eerie face suddenly showed a hint of shock, and extreme heat was already coming from the front.

Just after witnessing a sea of flowers bloom, the human cultivators quickly beheld a bloody fiery spectacle, watching as the countless blood-red big flowers instantly transformed into blood-red sparks, appearing even more spectacularly mysterious.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In the next moment, unable to withstand the burning power of Yun Xiao's Ancestral Vein Fire, the Blood Wing Flower blossoms exploded one after another in the air, finally turning into ashes and drifting away with the breeze, disappearing without a trace.

In just a brief moment, the previously sky-filling blood-red flowers were completely gone. When a coarse-clothed figure emerged, the human cultivators below became exceptionally excited, and the awe in their eyes deepened significantly.

A fleeting flame of brilliance, shining brightly!
