I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 166 - 35: Forbidden Zone of Yunmeng Mountain (2/3)

Chapter 166: Chapter 35: Forbidden Zone of Yunmeng Mountain (2/3)

At night, as the moon rose to the treetops.

"Is this the place?"

Gazing at the fog not far away, You Chong, who had struggled to get here, frowned.

Fortunately, You Chong was prepared for this.

He immediately chanted a spell, attempting to summon a gale to disperse the fog.

To You Chong, who was once considered the incarnation of the Heaven-Howling Clan, this was merely an instinctual act.

Whoosh!

As the gale swept through, causing the grass and trees in the forest to sway wildly.

The fog enveloping the forest showed no sign of dispersing.

Instead, as if triggering some defensive mechanism, a swarm of tiny insects You Chong had never seen before flew out of the fog.

Buzz buzz buzz...

These insects were colorful, yet shared common features and behavior.

After being startled by You Chong, they rapidly flew towards the seven orifices of the nearby animals.

"Damn it! What are these things?!"

With a swift flick of his sleeve, You Chong used a gust of wind to blow away a few Sleep Bugs closest to him.

Unexpectedly, the Sleep Bugs seemed to lock onto a target, immediately flying towards You Chong.

During this process, some special varieties of Sleep Bugs displayed extreme aggression.

"Ah!"

Caught off guard.

You Chong was bitten by a Sleep Bug, one that was clearly poisonous.

If not for You Chong being a Blood Demon, the immediate spread of toxins would have been disastrous.

Most crucially, with the Sleep Bugs disturbed, other "things" also appeared within the fog.

They were various colorful spiders.

Though not as aggressive as the Sleep Bugs, their numbers far exceeded You Chong’s expectations.

He couldn’t fathom how this small patch of fog could host so many spiders.

"I shouldn’t have underestimated any strange place in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range..."

Realizing his oversight.

You Chong immediately adjusted his battle tactics, his entire form instantly transforming into countless blood shadows surging towards the fog.

"Who goes there!"

In an instant, Xuansi Gu’s figure appeared in the fog.

Alongside Xuansi Gu were spider webs that had somehow spread across the majority of the fog.

These spider webs were not meant for prey capture; they served as alert signals for Xuansi Gu.

After all, Xuansi Gu was an ancient monster living for untold years.

Xuansi Gu was clear about her stance and identity.

Should she dare to treat this fog as a hunting ground.

That narrow-minded Mountain Cat would likely oust her immediately.

Compared to that, merely setting up some alert spider silk was Xuansi Gu’s way of expressing her position to Xiluo.

Calling her a "watchdog" might understate Xuansi Gu.

But she willingly guarded Yunmeng Mountain, hoping to gain Li Boyang’s favor and guidance.

It shows that the cunning Xuansi Gu truly understands how to climb the ladder, disregarding past enmities with Xiluo and Er Tu.

...........................

"Just a tiny spider, daring to stop me!"

Even transformed into countless blood shadows, the Blood Demon’s strength still surpassed the limits of ordinary Spirit Monsters.

In the blink of an eye, a blood shadow lunged at Xuansi Gu, causing her body to rapidly wither and shrivel before the naked eye.

"Damn it! This bizarre ability again!"

Having once nearly been drained of Essence Qi by the Six-tailed Fox, Xuansi Gu instantly realized—the blood shadows could absorb blood Qi.

Unless one like Li Boyang or Li Jingshu, who had perfected the Breathing Technique to control Life Essence Qi freely.

Otherwise, even powerful Spirit Monsters like gods couldn’t resist the blood shadows’ attacks.

Because it’s no longer about strength; the Blood Demon naturally restrains flesh-and-blood beings.

Luckily, the fog contained more than just Sleep Bugs and Xuansi Gu’s spiders.

Rumble...

As specks of azure light spread through the fog.

Imitation "Tusked Porpoises" emerged in formation from within.

Compared to the flawed versions from a month ago, these newly grown "Tusked Porpoises" appeared much more organized.

Apart from lacking in agility, the force of near a hundred "Tusked Porpoises" charging was far ahead of regular armies of this era.

But alas, their opponent was not ordinary.

Even with Nvman’s azure light empowering them, granting these "Tusked Porpoises" the ability to harm the Blood Demon.

Yet Blood Demon wasn’t foolish.

Upon realizing his intangible form was ineffective against the "Tusked Porpoises," he swiftly chose to evade.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The blood shadows soared skywards, swiftly darting past the "Tusked Porpoise" army at lightning speed.

This moment highlighted the "Tusked Porpoises’" flaws.

Lacking any spirit, they couldn’t perceive their true enemy, continuing their charge until they completely exited the fog.

"What... is happening outside?"

Listening to the earth-shaking sounds, Mu Chuan, hanging on a tree branch, opened his drowsy eyes.

Though reduced to just a head, Mu Chuan’s senses were undiminished, even enhanced in some ways.

"Blood Demon?"

Qing Fu was startled awake by Mu Chuan’s voice.

When she opened her eyes and saw the blood shadows in the fog, her voice quivered with fear.

"Why is it here? Could it be here to kill me?!"

The Blood Demon, as Xuan Hui’s dark hand during its reform period, had committed countless atrocities in three years.

Qing Fu was so intent on uncovering Sovereign Chongming’s truth largely due to the Blood Demon’s ruthless techniques.

All those killed by him in the Guifang Kingdom were reduced to emaciated skeletons.

In such fearful times, how could Qing Fu not dread this demon lurking in Guifang Kingdom’s shadows?

"Kill you?"

"You overestimate yourself too much?"

Hearing this, Mu Chuan appeared calm, even somewhat mocking in his retort. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Greenmu Clan is dead, you’ve become part of this great tree..."

"Even your secrets have been entirely exposed, what value do you hold for such an entity to hunt you down?"

At this, Mu Chuan’s voice paused briefly.

"In my opinion, it’s more likely the Blood Demon is here for this mountain peak than for you."
