The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix-Chapter 468 - Ancestor Zu, Hahaha
Hoohoo---!!
The desolate cry of an owl could be heard for hundreds of miles.
Between heaven and earth, a snow owl flapped its wings and soared into the sky, charging into the strange pink cloud ahead. However, the moment it touched the boundary, the feathers on its body rotted and withered before turning into ashes and dissipating with the wind.
Rumble--!
Three vibrating spiritual lights crashed from the white sky, crushing the mountains below into pieces, peeling off the Earth Mother's skin and floating up.
Under the dazzling golden light, Zu Yuan held a Yin-Yang Jade in his left hand and hovered in the void.
The spiritual energy fluctuated rapidly, attracting gusts of wind that blew Zu Yuan's black and white robe, which had been torn into pieces, making it flutter behind him like a flag.
When two Void Returning cultivators fought, the winner might not be decided even after several months. Immortal Yun Jian once faced five Void Returning demonic cultivators alone and lasted nearly ten days before finally dying of exhaustion.
However, after only one day and one night of fighting, Zu Yuan already felt that he was like a dying candle, and he might die in the next attack of Mei Yunlu and Six Eyes.
Perhaps it was because he gave his spiritual root to Ye Anping, or because he had not fought with anyone for a thousand years, or because his life span was about to end and he was in a state of decadence...
But for him, the reason for this matter was no longer important.
Zu Yuan's only thought at this moment was to kill these two Eastern Region thieves who dared to invade his territory!
Although the possibility was very small.
"Hah!"
Zu Yuan flicked his sleeves and pointed the Yin-Yang Jade in his palm toward the sky.
A strange vision appeared.
A huge Yin-Yang diagram formed under his feet and spread, covering the surrounding mountains and rivers for hundreds of miles. Countless spiritual patterns around the diagram intertwined and shone, and then gathered to form a golden-feathered giant beast.
The beast had a tiger-like head, but it had a pair of phoenix-like wings. It glared at Yunlu and Six Eyes, who were standing side by side in front of it.
Although it was a huge beast with ferocious eyes, the two people did not show any emotion on their faces.
Mei Yunlu looked bored as she lay sideways on the cloud, propping up her cheek and saying disdainfully, "You should know that you have no chance of winning, so why waste your energy like this?"
Roar---!
The tiger roared into the air, drowning out her voice that was expanded with spiritual power.
However, Mei Yunlu just paused, scratched her ears, and continued. "Zu Yuan, you don't think you can hold out until the bald donkey from the Awareness Sect comes, right? And what can he do if he comes? That bald donkey only knows a few formations, and he is not a threat to me and Six Eyes. He surely can't save your life."
"..."
"Ha~~" Mei Yunlu yawned and raised her hand to open her collar, revealing her two big white moons. "Zu Yuan, I'm also tired of fighting. How about we have a little chat?"
By her side, three of the six salamander eyes on her companion's face couldn't help but turn toward Mei Yunlu's 'moon', and the snake tongue in his mouth slightly spat out, as if showing some mating intention.
"Hiss..."
When Mei Yunlu saw this, she immediately waved her hand in disgust and twisted his head a quarter of a circle, turning it to the other side.
"What are you looking at with this bug head? I'm showing it to Zu Ancestor~ Besides, I don't want worms growing in my stomach."
Mei Yunlu smiled, puffed out her chest, and said with a seductive look in her eyes,
"Zu Yuan, Six Eyes and I are here to take your life, so you now have two choices. One is to enjoy the union with me, floating in the air in ecstasy and ascending to heaven. The other choice is to have your Void Returning spirit gnawed away inch by inch by this six-eyed worm, turned into a poisonous parasite bed, and die in pain and despair.
No matter what, the first option is better, right? In the twenty thousand years you've lived, you have probably never practiced with someone who cultivated the Joyous Union technique, right? Don't you want to experience it before you die? If I have to describe it, that feeling is..."
Roar---!!!
Before she finished speaking, the tiger roared in tandem with Zu Yuan's furious roar, interrupting Mei Yunlu again. "You're courting death!!"
The golden beast stepped on the blue clouds as if causing an earthquake in the sky. The vast spiritual energy was like a tidal wave, rushing toward Mei Yunlu and Six Eyes from the clouds above.
At this time, Six Eyes' head 'clicked' and turned around. Looking at the vast spiritual energy sea, the six snake pupils emitted an ink-like mist.
In just a moment, it condensed into a nine-headed coiled snake, which shot out, broke through the spiritual energy, and bit the neck of Zu Yuan's golden-feathered giant beast.
The tiger beast's wailing resounded through the sky.
Zu Yuan, who was holding the Yin-Yang Jade, suddenly coughed out a mouthful of blood, his neck bulging with blood vessels. Scenes of the past twenty thousand years flashed through his mind.
He gritted his teeth and restrained his thoughts, but when he looked up, Mei Yunlu had already come to him.
A gleam of spiritual light surfaced in her pale pink eyes under the brown eyeshadow.
"Zu Yuan, just relax~ I will choose for you. What's wrong with fading away in joy?"
Zu Yuan naturally understood that this was Mei Yunlu's charm technique and immediately mobilized his spiritual power to break the illusion and gather his spirit, but he found that he could not even muster the energy to break this spell.
He helplessly watched Mei Yunlu's hand reaching out to his shoulder.
"A little old, but still handsome."
Her black-painted nails gently ruffled Zu Yuan's long beard, causing him to gnash his teeth anxiously.
Zu Yuan knew that he probably had no way out this time, but he never thought that Mei Yunlu would use such a vile trick to try to destroy his Dao Heart before killing him.
"Oh my, what a look." Mei Yunlu sneered with narrowed eyes. "Hate me, right? Hate is better, I like rough ones, I'm strong, come boldly... hehe hahahaha~~~"
Her ghostly laughter spread around.
Her red lips parted slightly, and a mouthful of pink mist came out.
"Branches intertwined, flowers and moon are cold and thin~ Follow me, and have fun at the gates of the Underworld~~"
Zu Yuan gritted his teeth, but he could not move his arms at all. In an instant, he made up his mind and immediately activated the Void spirit to snuff himself out. However, Mei Yunlu stabbed him in the chest with her index finger.
"This won't work, Zu Yuan~ Ancestor Zu~~ Just relax, I will make you forget..."
With that, Mei Yunlu pulled down her robe, revealing her white and smooth shoulders.
But at this time...
Suddenly, a silver light fell from the sky, covering Zu Yuan's face with a snow-white color. Zu Yuan's eyes, which were originally filled with hatred, suddenly froze, reflecting a bright full moon that seemed to be close enough to touch.
"Eh?"
When Mei Yunlu saw the full moon through Zu Yuan's eyes, she was stunned and immediately turned her head to look up, only to see that the full moon, which should have been the size of a jade plate, seemed to have arrived in front of them at this moment.
The silver jade plate replaced the entire sky. It was as if a giant a million feet tall was overlooking the world, standing above the three of them.
Ding-ling-ling...
A crisp bell rang beside Mei Yunlu's ears. When she turned around to look at Zu Yuan again, she realized that a girl with black and white hair, wearing the Black Star Sect robe, was already standing beside her.
Si Xuanji looked at the two round moons on Mei Yunlu's chest with a trace of disdain in her yin-yang eyes. Raising her hand, she condensed a golden thunder spear in her small hand.
Whoosh---
Boom--!
The spiritual light exploded, and Mei Yunlu turned into a red streak and flew back, while at a distance, Six Eyes dodged and clung to her.
Si Xuanji looked at Zu Yuan on the side and flicked her robe sleeves lightly. freewёbnoνel.com
Zu Yuan seemed to have regained his breath. Lowering his head, he let out a long sigh. Then, he turned to look at Si Xuanji with a trace of surprise in his eyes.
He thought that Grandmaster Zhiming of the Awareness Sect might find out the news first and come to help, but he didn't expect Red Moon to come instead.
Si Xuanji half-narrowed her eyes, covered her mouth, and snickered. She patted his shoulder and said sarcastically, "Old Zu, why are you so useless? The older the cultivators get, the stronger they are. Why are you getting weaker and weaker? Just this six-eyed and this rotten bitch can beat you into this state, and you still need me to save your ass."
Zu Yuan felt angry when he heard her mocking him, but when he thought of what Ye Anping had said before, he relaxed and laughed. "Hehe heh... Hahahaha---"
Si Xuanji raised her eyebrows. "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm so happy!! Hahahaha..."
"?"
Si Xuanji was a little confused but didn't bother with it. She turned her head to look at Mei Yunlu and Six Eyes holding her shoulders, standing at a distance. She looked up and stated calmly without any intonation, "I'll give you two choices, live or die."
Mei Yunlu and Six Eyes looked at Si Xuanji with disbelief written all over their faces.
They didn't expect that Red Moon would come to the Southern Region to intervene in this matter in person.
After thousands of years of fighting, whether it was immortal or demonic cultivators, everyone in this world knew that Red Moon Matriarch was afraid of death, selfish, and petty.
Unless someone touched her Western Region, even if the sky were to fall in the other four regions, she would never move out of the Black Star Sect.
Besides, she actually arrived too fast this time.
Even if she wanted to come, she would never be able to reach the Southern Region so soon, unless she had been already waiting here for some time.
Mei Yunlu felt something was wrong, looked up at the moon disk that was almost stuck to her face, and raised her chest. "Matriarch Red Moon, what brought you here? Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for more than four thousand years. Have you gotten rid of that virginity of yours?"
"Hehe..."
Zu Yuan suddenly wanted to add "she did" for some reason, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. If he said that, he would die in the hands of Red Moon. After laughing twice, he held back.
?
Si Xuanji rolled her eyes at Zu Yuan, wondering if the old man had taken the wrong medicine. She took out three hand bells from her sleeves, pointed her left hand as sword fingers in front of her chest, and silently mobilized her spiritual energy.
Seeing that Si Xuanji was really ready to take action, Mei Yunlu exchanged a look with Six Eyes.
In a split second, the nine-headed snake that bit Zu Yuan's Golden Feathered Beast pounced directly on Si Xuanji and Zu Yuan, while Mei Yunlu and Six Eyes turned into two sinister lights and turned tail, quickly escaping toward the east.
But at this moment, a golden light shot out from below toward the sky, broke through the clouds, and then exploded in mid-air, condensing into a semicircular spiritual shield, covering a hundred miles in radius.
Mei Yunlu and Six Eyes were just escaping to the border, but when they saw this spiritual shield, they abruptly stopped their escape technique and looked at the bottom of the golden light.
In the middle of the mountain range that had turned barren due to their battle with Zu Yuan, where the clouds had broken open, one could see a man with a shiny bald head sitting cross-legged on the ground with his hands clasped together. The aura surrounding his body was overwhelming, swirling and surging into a sphere of light around him.
The leader of the Awareness Sect raised his head and looked at the two, infusing his voice with spiritual power. "You two have committed serious sins. Please surrender."
Seeing that not only Si Xuanji but also Grandmaster Zhiming came, Mei Yunlu's previous relaxed look disappeared instantly. She and Six Eyes turned their heads and looked at Zu Yuan and Si Xuanji.
However, after thinking for a while, she was relieved again.
Although it was three against two, if they were to fight, it would still take one or two months to determine the winner.
Previously, they attacked Zu Yuan together, and it only took one day and one night to burn down the territory within a hundred miles of this place.
If these five Void Returning cultivators fought for a month or two, it would be enough to turn half of the Southern Region into scorched earth.
The vast desert covering more than half of the Central Region was also born like this.
In other words, unless Si Xuanji and Zu Yuan were determined to turn the rich mountains and waters of the Southern Region into the second sand plains of the Central Region, they would never actually fight with them.
Just as Mei Yunlu thought, although Si Xuanji was condensing a hand seal energy, she did not cast the spell for a long time. She also knew that if they really fought, the Southern Region would most likely be destroyed.
That was why she went first to the Moon Shadow Sword Sect and sent Yun Tianchong to the Bright Star Sect to protect Ye Anping.
As Ye Anping was in the Nascent Soul formation period, once he was affected by their spiritual energy, he might not be able to resist without a Deification cultivator to shield him.
Narrowing her yin-and-yang eyes, Si Xuanji hesitated whether to let those two go.
However, at this time, Zu Yuan stroked his beard lightly, took a step forward, and raised his hand to stop her. "Red Moon girl, you don't need to intervene in the affairs of the Southern Region. This is the immortal land guarded by this old man. If there are insects here, it is me who should get rid of them personally. You and Zhiming don't need to be trapped here."
Hearing this, Si Xuanji frowned slightly.
The next moment, a golden light shot out from Zu Yuan's chest. He reached out and took out a golden horsetail whisk from the void, then hung it on the crook of his left arm.
"Red Moon, I have figured it out."
"..."
"Eliminating evil and promoting good is the original intention of us immortals. But after twenty thousand years on this path, I feel that I have become more and more cautious to the point of tiptoeing around.
When I was young, I was full of passion with no responsibility. When I met evil people, I would fight to the death with them. But now, being in this high but empty position in the Immortal Family, I am afraid of losing everything."
Si Xuanji listened to this, and her hands that made the seal slowly lowered as she nodded silently.
"..."
"The ocean is so vast and magnificent, the sky and the dark world are one and the same for eternity. All kinds of things come into being and finally come to an end. We, humans, are the ones who plant trees. My trees have been planted until now, and the next step is up to you, the younger generation."
Boom---
Golden spiritual light surrounded him and swept across the sky and the earth.
When Mei Yunlu saw this, she immediately understood that Zu Yuan was going to self-destruct. She was so scared that she took a deep breath, making her bra cup size increase by two sizes.
If Zu Yuan self-destructed, they should just run away.
However, the formation of that baldy of the Awareness Sect had surrounded the place, sealing off the four directions, while Si Xuanji sealed the sky, not giving them any chance to escape.
Mei Yunlu gritted her teeth and shouted.
"Zu old man!! Are you crazy? You have been cultivating for twenty thousand years, think it through!! If you do this, you will return to the body of an ordinary man!"
"Heh..."
"Zu old man, you might as well let us return to the Eastern Region and pretend that nothing happened. At least you'll still be the Bright Star Sect Patriarch!! At least you'll still be a Void Returning cultivator, respected by all immortals!! If you destroy your roots like this and become an ordinary man, no one will recognize you as the immortal ancestor anymore!!! This is how you'll end up after twenty thousand years? Is this what you want?!"
"What I want is to help future generations get rid of you two-thousand-year-old parasites!!!"
"Damn it!!" Mei Yunlu couldn't help but burst out. "If you become a mortal, who will recognize you? In just a hundred years, no one will remember you!!"
"I don't care!!!"
Zu Yuan laughed loudly and tightened his grip on the horsetail whisk, then transformed into a flying meteorite under the moon, breaking through the clouds thousands of miles away, and causing night to turn to day across the entire Southern Region.
