Chapter 370: Chapter 367: Taotie Bloodline

A massive hand, also filled with Immortal Power, reached out from the Feng Family’s territory and clashed with Huangfu Yu’s master.

BOOM!

The two giant hands touched and separated in an instant. This was a genuine clash between Immortals.

The tyrannical energy fluctuations caused the entire sky to dim. Space, as fragile as paper, shattered into pieces. Cracks visible to the naked eye spread outward like a spiderweb, covering a hundred-mile radius.

Despite the protection of the Array, many of the Feng Family’s buildings were still destroyed in an instant.

Many clansmen who were too close and lacked sufficient Cultivation were struck as if by a heavy blow, grunting and stumbling backward with blood trickling from the corners of their mouths.

"Huangfu Family, are you trying to start a war?"

The deep, resonant voice rang out again, and a grim, murderous aura filled the air. The Feng Family Immortal was clearly enraged.

"Hand over that kid, and I will leave at once. No more words will be exchanged."

Huangfu Yu’s master aimed his spearhead directly at Mo Qi.

He had always been proud of Huangfu Yu, believing his disciple to be a rare genius even in the Immortal Realm.

Becoming venerated in the Hall of Envoys was only a matter of time. In the future, it wasn’t impossible that he could lead the Huangfu Family back to the Immortal Realm and establish their own dynasty.

But Mo Qi’s appearance not only shocked him but also made him see a deep crisis—even fear.

The methods Mo Qi had displayed were simply too astonishing.

So astonishing that if one hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.

If this weren’t the Feng Family’s territory, Huangfu Yu’s master would have spared no expense to kill Mo Qi on the spot.

Mo Qi sneered from the side but said nothing. He simply turned his gaze to the members of the Feng Family.

He had done what needed to be done and shown what needed to be shown.

Now, it all came down to the Feng Family’s attitude.

If the Feng Family didn’t respond, or if they showed even the slightest hesitation, Mo Qi would immediately take his people and leave.

He wanted the Feng Family’s unwavering support. Ambiguity or fence-sitting was unacceptable to him.

There was no room for negotiation on this matter.

"Enough of your nonsense, Huangfu! If you want this young man, you’ll have to get past my dead body!"

An old man with white hair and a beard, and a withered, skinny frame, appeared out of thin air beside Mo Qi.

His Immortal Power swelled, enveloping Mo Qi and protecting him within it.

"If I want to kill him, you can’t stop me!" A middle-aged man with a face covered in black paint appeared, confronting the old man.

Not to be outdone, the old man pointed at Huangfu Yu and said, "Then I can just as easily take his life, even under your protection."

At this, Huangfu Yu’s expression changed, and he quickly darted behind the middle-aged man.

Although Mo Qi possessed Immortal Level Combat Power, he lacked Immortal Power and thus couldn’t use powerful Immortal Techniques.

But the Feng Family’s elder could!

There was a world of difference between Immortal Techniques and ordinary Martial Techniques.

’My Asura Blood Pupils might be able to repair my damaged body, but what if it’s turned to ash in an instant?’

’Could the Asura Blood Pupils still fix that?’

Huangfu Yu didn’t know, he didn’t want to find out, and he certainly didn’t dare to gamble on it.

"You dare threaten me!"

Huangfu Yu’s master flew into a rage. It had been many years since anyone had dared to speak to him like that.

"I am not threatening you; I am stating a fact. If you don’t believe me, you are welcome to try."

As he spoke, the Feng Family elder extended his right hand, fingers spread wide. His Immortal Power burned and boiled, transforming into a dazzling flame of light.

The flame was like the maw of an abyss, its absolutely tyrannical power pulling in and devouring the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth and Spiritual Energy.

In just a moment, the thousand-mile radius became a vacuum, with not a speck of Energy left to be used.

The esoteric and tyrannical fluctuations made everyone’s heart skip a beat.

Even Mo Qi’s expression grew solemn.

From that dancing flame of light, Mo Qi smelled the scent of death.

Even with the dual blessings of the Power of the Dragon Vein and his good fortune, he had no confidence he could contend with that flame.

’An Immortal is still an Immortal, after all!’

Mo Qi and the Pig Emperor exchanged a glance. The Pig Emperor’s voice resounded grimly in his mind via transmission: "Mo the kid, that’s no ordinary Immortal Technique. This Emperor senses a very familiar aura from it. Quick, investigate."

Hearing this, Mo Qi quickly used his Divine Sense to communicate with the Chaos Scripture. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Soon, a message came from the Chaos Scripture: *Taotie, one of the Ancient Four Great Fierce Beasts, possesses the ability to devour all things in the world. This person has an extremely thin Taotie Bloodline. He does not possess inherited memories, but he can utilize a fraction of the Taotie’s minor abilities.*

"Taotie?!" The Pig Emperor, having shared the information, couldn’t help but exclaim aloud. Deep within its mind, a memory fragment was stirred, and it remembered something.

The Feng Family elder at their side trembled as if struck by lightning.

He whipped his head around to look at the Pig Emperor, the shock on his face completely unconcealed.

’Taotie... That is the Feng Family’s greatest secret.’

Even within the Feng Family, only the Patriarchs of each generation and clansmen who had reached the Immortal Realm were qualified to know of it.

’How does this talking pig know?’

’And Mo Qi... is he really from the Mortal District?’

’Is he truly not the descendant of some major figure from the Immortal Realm, sent down to the mortal world to train?’

"Feng Family, the mountains will remain and the rivers will flow. I hope you don’t regret today’s decision!"

Huangfu Yu’s master left those words with a cold face, then vanished on the spot with Huangfu Yu.

Before leaving, he gave Mo Qi a meaningful look, his eyes filled with coldness and killing intent.

The moment the Feng Family elder had conjured that ball of light, Huangfu Yu’s master knew that he would be unable to do anything to Mo Qi today.

But it didn’t matter. In this Sub-Palace of the Hall of Envoys, his Huangfu Family had already secured over seventy percent of the slots for entering the Demon Spirit Battlefield.

During the Sub-Palace’s year-long selection process, the Huangfu Family would have plenty of time and opportunities to eliminate Mo Qi.

So, there was no rush to do it now.

"What are you looking at, you damned old coot? Haven’t you ever seen such a handsome pig before?"

The Pig Emperor flew out of Mo Qi’s arms and landed on his shoulder, crossing its front hooves in the posture of a belligerent shrew.

Both Mo Qi and the Feng Family elder were stunned.

Mo Qi knew the Pig Emperor was shameless, had no bottom line, and was arrogant for a pig, but he never expected it would directly start a fight with an Immortal.

The Feng Family elder, on the other hand, was rather surprised. ’This pig actually dared to call me a "damned old coot"?!’

If it were any other person, or any other pig, the elder would have obliterated them without a second thought.

But things were different now. Setting aside the Pig Emperor’s relationship with Mo Qi, the mere fact that it could blurt out the word "Taotie" was enough to ensure the elder wouldn’t do anything to it.

"Still looking? Believe it or not, this Emperor will have you squealing with ecstasy in minutes!"

The Pig Emperor was relentless. Its pupils contracted, and just as it was about to activate its bizarre ability, Mo Qi quickly covered its eyes.

’Are you kidding me!’

’If it shot one look over there and got this Feng Family Immortal pregnant, do you think the Feng Family would tear us limb from limb?’

"Pig Emperor, what’s gotten into you? Did you eat the wrong Medicinal Cuisine? Why are you so aggressive?" Mo Qi asked via voice transmission.

But the Pig Emperor pried Mo Qi’s hand away, turned its head, and grumbled, "Hmph, none of these Fengs are any good!"

Mo Qi was taken aback. "Why do you say that?"

"They have the bloodline of that detestable ghoul in them. How could they be any good?"
