Chapter 314: Killing the Figurines


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


The situation in Shiwan Mountain was much better than the place of the outer fringe. Even though the monsters were more aggressive in pursuing and killing, there were many top master cultivators who were leading the troop. There were many second line of defense’s master cultivators of the old demon rabbit’s level. There were even more ordinary level master cultivators from Five Blessings’ key members. Moreover, they came fully prepared before they entered the mountain. The few famous sects’ disciples who were holding the line possessed much stronger quality than the motley crowd in the place of the outer fringe.


The Temple of Great Mercy, Kunlun Sect, Eyang Sect and some ordinary sects were smaller scale but well-trained, launched their magic formations. Their advancement and retreatment were well-controlled. They protected each other, even though it was also a sanguinary slaughter with continuous bloody fights. Their speed was bafflingly slower, yet they could still manage to withstand for a short moment.


The two silly uncles, Mumu and zombie paid no attention to anything else. Their sole responsibility was to protect Shui Jing, to direct everybody, and to advance to the destination in the depth of the huge mountain.


Countless monsters had died. There were also countless monsters that gathered around again. Some were flying in the sky, some burrowing underground, while some came and went like a ghost. Even more came galloping and dashing over, like a herd of bison with burned buttocks!


The cultivators, treasured weapons, talismans, and supernatural powers poured down without a moment’s pause…


Chang Li, Zhui Zi, Hanba, Liu Zheng and San Wei took turns to go into the battle. There was always one top master cultivator who stood in front to lead the group and cut paths, while the rest of the people were scattered in the large contingent of troops. Whichever spot was in a critical situation, a great supernatural power capable of blotting out the sky would appear vigorously.


Currently, Chang Li was leading the troop. The rage on her face had disappeared, her expression turned back into that curious smile. She was holding the pair of Versace high heels in her hand, walking barefooted with her fair legs. She was just like a joyous maiden on a spring outing. She bounced about as she walked in front of the troop.


Next to her, layers of black-colored demon blades appeared and disappeared abruptly. At times, they were as soft as the wind in the spring, while occasionally, the demon blades were like big waves that surged on the great sea. The demon blades left behind a mud path that was paved with the monsters’ pus and blood!


The monsters’ offense had slowed down slightly. Zhui Zi stayed by Chang Li’s side with nothing else to do. She watched Chang Li who was slaughtering monsters without launching an attack. She said smilingly, “Please splash a little less blood, it is very dirty.”


Chang Li was cautiously looking for clean soil to step away from the blood marsh. She answered, “I cannot. if I do not let them die with shattered corpses, I will feel uneasy all over!”


The demon cat’s tone of speaking was relaxed and joyous. It was no different from her laughter when she was fishing.


Zhui Zi rolled her eyes at Chang Li. She diverted the topic of conversation, “The sound of gong and drum is very strange. If the sound is not stopped, the monsters will never disperse.”


Chang Li shook her head, “I think that it is best for us to find the correct location first. They are all Kong Nuer’s inferiors, they are certainly gathered together. I am going to dash in and kill them after we have met.”


Shui Jing found a total of three locations as to where the top master cultivators were hiding using his Art of spirit-searching. They were advancing in the direction of the closest location, yet it still took them a total of three days to arrive on foot.


Chang Li was bored of looking at the monsters, so she started lowering her head and studied her bare feet. She was smiling as if she was very satisfied with her feet. She turned and said to Zhui Zi, “Why don’t you remove your shoes too? Then we shall compare them.”


The big and small demon rabbits following them gazed at one another. Their faces were filled with a loss of whether to cry or laugh. Zhui Zi pouted her lips and removed her shoes. Her feet were equally fair and pleasant-looking…


Chang Li compared them for a while. She realized that even though she did not lose, she did not win either. She spoke with slight impatience, “This is not fun…”


Meanwhile, Liu Zheng too bounced about as he ran over. He walked side-by-side with the two demon witches, “The fat monk Shui Jing said that we are about to arrive at the location.” The little supreme leader’s face was slightly solemn. He was about to speak, when Zhui Zi scolded, “Speak properly. Do not assume a feigned manner!”


Liu Zheng scoffed, then he regained his mischievous appearance, “If, I am only saying if, we are able to dash past these monsters’ formation. Amongst the good hands of the enemies, there are four moon cone nails in addition to Shudou, Sir Rust, Hot Immortal Aunt. There are a total of seven persons. On the other hand, there is also a five-element demon that is too deep to be fathomable.”


Chang Li considered this for a while before she spoke, “The seven descendants of heaven’s cone nails shall be dealt by the three persons including me, Zhui Zi and Hanba in full assurance of success. As for the five-element demon… you, San Wei, Mumu and the two silly uncles.” As she was saying that, she shook her head again, “That five-element demon, if he were to possess the heavily-moustached man’s abilities… we will lose then!”


This group of top master cultivators would start fighting the moment they met. The number of cultivators who came along with them was a good amount, but they mainly dealt with the monsters. They were of no help in the decisive battle between the demon immortals and sword immortals.


Zhui Zi’s voice sounded beyond all doubt, “This is not a good arrangement. I am leading San Wei and Tuo Xie’s disciples to deal with the five-element demon. All of you including Hanba shall engage the seven descendants of heaven’s cone nail.”


Chang Li’s charming face was filled with vigilance. She turned around and stared at Zhui Zi in all seriousness, “The difference is not that big. What are you trying to do there?”


Zhui Zi laughed in a rather proud manner, “Don’t you bother asking. I’ll never tell!” She diverted the topic of conversation once again, “It would seem to me that the location that we are looking for is incorrect.”


Chang Li nodded. She turned around and glared at Shui Jing ferociously.


The fat monk Shui Jing was startled until the color was drained from his face. He hastily explained, “I cannot differentiate the three forces either. Which one is stronger? Which one is where Kong Nuer’s inferiors…”


The large troop of people was close to approaching the first destination. Theoretically speaking, the enemies ought to be sending more monsters to assault. Yet the monsters’ offense right now, was even slightly weaker than before. The group of people was discussing as they circled past a mountain ridge, when a steep peak, stabbed diagonally into the ground, suddenly appeared before them!


The boundless monsters too simultaneously reflected and exploded in every cultivator’s gaze! Thousands of cultivators were gathered, they were a troop of an army. However, the monsters before them were the raging sea that stretched out until the edge of the horizon!


What was even more surprising to everyone was the monsters before their eyes. The majority were facing the crowd with their backs. They were surging ferociously towards the mountain peak. It was apparent that the first group of cultivators that Shui Jing found was currently encircled by the monsters too.


At this point, Hanba Fifth Brother let out a raging roar. He walked in great strides out of the troop. He collided with the people before him mercilessly. Once he reached the front of the troop, he stuffed Darling into little supreme leader Liu Zheng’s arms and spoke viciously, “If you were to even dare to let go of Darling, I shall exterminate the Kunlun Sect!”


He did not acknowledge Darling. To the people’s astonishment, he took a wide step and marched towards the monsters before him without hesitation.


On the mountain ridge, gusts of wind were blowing where Fifth Brother’s feet landed. A long white-haired drought spirit spread out in all directions rapidly. Any monster that was tainted by the drought spirit would immediately transform into a pile of withered bones.


Chang Li and Zhui Zi stared at one another. They were shouting at Liu Zheng almost simultaneously, “You shall lead the troop!” They each reverberated their supernatural powers and guarded Hanba on either side. They helped him to tear open a bloody path from the densely packed monsters.


Within the boundless sea of monsters, the three top demon immortals joined hands. They were still walking in an unusually strenuous manner, as if a pressure capable of collapsing the heaven and earth, was surging from all directions. Just as the three of them were about to stand still, Hanba was about to fly into a wild rage. Liu Zheng’s voice echoed from behind their backs, “Charge ahead, open the path!”


All the cultivators urged their entire life’s vitality. The supernatural powers and magic powers that were pouring in all directions initially transformed into two raging dragons, which tore open a breach ferociously from the sea of monsters. Hanba did not turn around. He was charging quicker and quicker towards the mountain peak!


Zhui Zi and Chang Li were unaware of what just happened. They remained by Hanba’s side, guarding him firmly. It was only until after they broke through the monsters’ seal and dashed to the mountain peak, that both of the demon witches stopped moving in astonishment – except Hanba Fifth Brother!


Before them, were not descendants of the heaven’s cone nails, nor the wild burly man – but over a thousand demons in a helpless position.


The first group of people that Shui Jing found were not the descendants of the heaven’s cone nails. It was Red Pot, who had recently led his inferiors to enter the mountain, preparing to ambush Chang Li and the rest.


Hanba Fifth Brother’s body had already exploded in a ghastly cold arrogance. He almost exhausted his voice when he roared at his companions, “That is all. The rest of the matter is mine. No one is allowed to interrupt!”


Chang Li and Zhui Zi did not speak anymore. They launched their supernatural powers at the same time. They slashed and harvested the surrounding monsters’ heads mercilessly, using the spurting fresh blood as Hanba Fifth Brother’s battle formation.


A frog’s croak that shook the heaven and moved the earth, echoed from the summit of the ultimate mountain ridge. Red Pot’s eyes were bloodshot, as it burst out laughing, “I was just resenting my inability to find all of you!” Its two short and thick front claws were waving in a disorderly manner, as it turned around and squalled hoarsely towards its puppets, “Kill them kill them, kill them all! Hah-hah-hah, everyone will die an ignominious death!”


Hanba raised his ghost claws. He tore the first demon figurine that came dashing over into two. Just as the demon blood was splashing out, Hanba suddenly exploded in a sinister, hoarse cry, “What is a demon figurine? It is the thousands of years that I have spent. The time and effort that I have exhausted. The hardship that I have suffered through!”


No one could continue his words. The only thing that his battle companions could do was to stop the monsters that Hanba could kill decadently by himself!


Hanba’s ghost claws reverberated like the wind and stabbed the two demon-bodied puppets’ faces at lightning speed. With the sound of two agonizing screams, he forcefully tore away the skin on their faces, “What is a demon figurine? It is the reason for my state in between the Yin and Yang world. My existence of boundless time between heaven and earth, yet unable to live or die!”


Darling was bawling loudly in Liu Zheng’s arms. She was struggling greatly in an attempt to jump down and help her father. Liu Zheng was green with rage. He allowed her little fists to continuously knock against his chest. Without a single word, he waved and moved his sword formation to stop the tidewater-like monsters.


Hanba’s eyes were bloodshot as if blood was about to spurt out of his eyes. His body moved as he raised his leg and forcefully stomped through a demon’s chest, “What is a demon figurine? It is my precious that I cry to, laugh to, mutter to, whine sorrowfully to when I miss Mi Xu!”


The cold reflection in Hanba’s eyes expanded vastly. He stared at Red Pot and suddenly lowered his raging shouts. His voice was so hoarse it was nauseating, so low it was suffocating. Yet, there was no way the enmity that was entangled in between every word of his could be erased.


“You stole my demon figurines, and that is equal to stealing my life! You destroyed the demon figurines, and that is equal to destroying Hanba’s heaven!”


The final word of ‘heaven’, suddenly blasted into pieces. The demonic energy on the mountain ridge soared in the blink of an eye!”


Hanba’s skin was shriveling in a manner that was visible to the naked eye. His sparse hair turned white instantly and started growing in layers all the way until it covered his ankles. With the sound of the nauseating ghost’s song that came from the unseen world, countless ghost scripts from the nether world appeared out of thin air. The strong wind on the mountain peak was entangled in a sticky mist of sorrowful howls from the nether world. Hanba transformed into his corpse state. Within a ghastly howl, he dived headfirst into the large group of demon-bodied puppets.


He was a peerless master cultivator before his death. He was the vicious corpse king after he died, and then he was resurrected as a spirit for thousands of years. Hanba, who had already stopped displaying his emotions, was driven to madness by Red Pot.


Red Pot was mad from the beginning, and even more so now. It was sniggering while urging all the puppets to attack Hanba.


Two gushes of tremendous force collided with a loud bang. Hanba was akin to a resolute reef. He caused a surge of heinous bloody waves upon diving into the raging sea. All the puppets that were approaching him were crushed and shattered into thousands of pieces in the blink of an eye.


The demon figurines reserved by Hanba were all extremely incisive spirits and demons before death. The demons were corroded by the corpse energy for thousands of years, then their bodies were created once again. Not only did they lose their spiritual intelligence, but their actual power had also greatly deteriorated too. However, they were still not something that Hanba could deal with by himself. Perhaps, he would be able to sustain for a short while, but for a longer period, Hanba would certainly die.


Zhui Zi was complaining about the hardship in her heart. She did not expect that the first person to break the rule, ignore the group and charge forward, to be Chang Li.


Chang Li was even stomping her foot continuously in hatred. Red Pot and the puppets were trapped by countless demons. They were almost cut off from their way out. A fool would allow them to fight each other to death. Yet because of that wild rage, Hanba was still resenting. The demon cat suddenly laughed, judging the others. If Red Pot’s reign was currently made up of Tuo Xie’s dharma body puppets, she would fight desperately without a care for anything.


Even so, Hanba had declared earlier that he would not allow others to interrupt. The crowd too, could not just stand and watch helplessly as he killed those puppets. What was even more surprising to everyone, was that amongst the large group of people, the first ones who went dashing over were the two silly uncles…


Chang Li burst out laughing, “We are not even as good as the Wen family’s two silly lads!” As she spoke, her demon blades surged up and covered the sky. The demon blades changed its direction and surged towards the puppets’ formation. Zhui Zi too did not waste time talking nonsense. She joined the demon cat in urging their supernatural powers. They pounced towards the large group of puppets side by side.


The little supreme leader Liu Zheng was issuing orders continuously. The thousands of cultivation world’s picked cultivators behind his back were howling in rage continuously. Half of the troops were risking their lives to resist Shiwan Mountains’ monsters, while the other half was under the Taoist priest San Wei’s leadership. They killed the puppets on a grand scale…


The nameless steep peak on Shiwan Mountain, turned into purgatory, a slaughterhouse, and land of Shura’s Wrath in the blink of an eye! Countless monsters, cultivators, demon-bodies puppets, and a group of top master cultivators, fought noisily. Treasured weapons and fresh blood rose one after another. The sound of spell incantations, agonizing screams, raging roars and bitter cries interweaved into one!


Everyone killed wildly and madly until their eyes reddened. Some people were urging their treasured weapons as they wailed loudly, while some were laughing wildly as they killed the puppets. Others were squalling in a meaningless manner repetitively. The old demon rabbit’s expression was unwilling in the beginning. He launched the Buddhism Sect’s supernatural power while chanting the deceased’s prayer softly. While he was killing, he suddenly tore away his monk robe, howling strangely.


The head lama Rangjung frowned. He took great strides as he walked to the old demon rabbit’s side. He was chanting the Tibetan Buddhism sect’s mantra. He raised his eyes and he shouted as loud as thunder, “Great master, it is alright to disregard life and death in defending moral principles and expelling evil. However, do not ever infuriate the demon of the heart!”


The old demon rabbit burst out laughing, “I have been cultivating for a thousand years. To be able to be in such a great battle, the hardship that I have suffered is not in vain. The lonesome that I have experienced is not in vain!” With the wave of his hand and sound of a screech, he tore away Rangjung’s red robe, “Lama, damn the Amitābha. Kill them!”


Rangjung could not help but to answer, “Very well!” Soon after, he startled himself…


San Wei’s split body possessed one-third of the cultivation base of his god level body. San Wei’s cultivation power back in those days was no less inferior to Chang Li’s and Zhui Zi’s. This split body now was a martial art fanatic too. His ability was indeed astonishing. His flying sword was waved around, akin to a blood dragon that accompanied its master to kill its way through the monster and demon-bodied puppet. The Taoist priest was beyond joyous while fighting, it was unknown which muscle of his was wrongly placed. His face suddenly bloomed into a charming smile. He roared and laughed strangely towards the monsters that were dashing over to his side, “The three tastes of the human world. Happiness, happiness appears on one’s eyebrows!”


The monsters did not even acknowledge. At the sound of a bang, they came pouncing over. On the contrary, it was the little supreme leader Liu Zheng, who was next to San Wei, who suddenly sniggered, “Immortal senior, these monsters are not gifted with spiritual intelligence. How are they capable of smiling?”


The martial art fanatic San Wei was going through a series of bustles. Upon pulling himself out of the situation, he glared at Liu Zheng, “How would I know if I have never tried?”


Three sides of this mountain ridge were cliffs. There was only one side that was walkable. The steep peak’s surface area was considerably huge, yet when it was filled with countless cultivators and monsters, it became exceedingly crowded. From the side of the cliff, there were monsters that were continuously shot down. They tumbled downwards in disarray and fell into a mud…


It was an arduous battle that was almost meaningless. It lasted for a day and night. When it finally ended, over a thousand demon figurines were killed. The monsters that attacked towards the peak earlier were eliminated too.


Following the gradual dissipation of the sound of drum and gong, the monsters at the foothill stopped attacking temporarily. It was only less than a day. The monsters that were encircling at the bottom, were double the amount as compared to when Hanba first dashed up here. Even so, on higher ground, no one could not see the end.


The fatalities of cultivators too were not considered too little. The only advantage that came with this violent battle, was that it made everyone more adept at working together…


Amongst the group of top master cultivators, Hanba was most severely injured. With the group’s help, he managed to withstand it anyhow. He still possessed the strength to last another battle. He was shuttling back and forth within the crowd right now. He was glaring with a pair of reddened eyes, as he looked for Red Pot everywhere.


Chang Li was holding Red Pot, who was in a deep coma from being struck by some unknown person’s supernatural power. She waved the toad at Hanba. She laughed in a rather pleasant manner, “Do you want to pinch it to death? Or burn it to death with the true fire? Or do you still have some incisive, soul-refining, Art of Ghost?”


Zhui Zi hastily stopped the two old demons with maniacal smiles. She snatched the toad away from Chang Li’s hand, “I still have many things to clarify from him. Do not kill him first!”


In addition to the complete annihilation of the demon-bodied puppets, the violent battle and wild slaughter had made Hanba vent most of his rage. He inhaled a deep breath before he turned from corpse form to human form. He looked straight into Liu Zheng’s eyes.


Liu Zheng hastily returned Darling in his arms to Hanba. He spoke smilingly, “I have never let go of her. Do not damn us from the Kunlun Sect!”


Hanba seemed to have laughed, “Thank you!”


Perhaps Hanba had never spoken of these two words before. That was why his tone of speaking had an indescribable strangeness.


Zhui Zi ran to the side of the cliff. She looked to the vast and boundless monsters in the surroundings. She stuck out her tongue to them. The troop was marching through the huge mountain. Even though they did not walk fast, they had the mobility, and the opportunity to avoid the encirclement of a large group of monsters. Yet right now, anyone could understand that. let alone running out of this place, it was even a problem for them to guard it.


Their location on the ultimate mountain ridge was not bad in consideration. It was easy for them to defend, but difficult to attack. If they were to truly start fighting, then they may not necessarily be in an advantageous position. Many of the monsters are capable of flying, their topographical advantage was reduced vastly on the ultimate mountain ridge.


Hanba held Darling as he walked to her side, he muttered, “I am sorry for bringing everyone into trouble.”


Zhui Zi burst out laughing, her gaze was filled with mischief, “What did you just say? I did not hear you clearly!”


Chang Li too walked over smiling, “The monsters are crazily excessive. Even if we were down there, we would be surrounded sooner or later. It is only a matter of time!” As she was saying that she stretched out her hand and patted on Hanba’s shoulder. She shrieked and hastily wiped her hand that was tainted with blood on Zhui Zi.


Zhui Zi was both angered and amused. She did not acknowledge the demon cat. She turned around and looked towards the fat monk Shui Jing who was boasting about his bravery during the violent battle earlier, “The next one, where is the force that is closest to us?”


The fat monk Shui Jing hastily ran over. He distinguished the direction in all seriousness. Soon after, he pointed to the northwest direction, “It is about thirty-five kilometers away from here…” He was halfway through his speech when he suddenly gasped in surprise. His fingertip froze. He pointed to the far end in a flurry.


In the Shiwan Mountain, mountains ridges and hills overlapped and went on continuously. The majority of the places were not as high as the lone peak they were currently at. In the direction where the monk was pointing, at the edge of everyone’s sight, a mountain peak of about the same height, as desolate as the current one, was standing alone.


“It should be, on that mountain…” The fat monk Shui Jing’s voice was dry.


His vision was restricted when they were travelling in the mountain. The fat monk could only point out the direction. After they ascended this mountain, they were engaged in a battle that was horrifying to the utmost extent. Shui Jing had now only discovered in surprise, that the next destination was located at the far end. It echoed to where they were from a great distance.


The little supreme leader Liu Zheng frowned, “Coursing through the air, thirty-five kilometers is not a big deal. However, most of the monsters are capable of flying. This is a huge problem…” Before he could finish his sentence, Chang Li and Zhui Zi had already leaped up into the sky, plundering as swift as the wind!


Hanba too jumped over once again. He stuffed Little Five into Liu Zheng’s arms, “If you were to even dare to let go of Darling…”


Liu Zheng’s face was filled with helplessness. He completed Hanba’s sentence, “Then you shall exterminate the Kunlun Sect!”


Hanba sniggered in a ghastly manner. His body swayed, then he chased after the two companions in front. The three of them flew out of the nameless mountain ridge in succession. The entire Shiwan Mountain exploded with a buzzing sound. Countless monsters vibrated their wings and flew up suddenly. The sky was blotted out and the sun was covered in the blink of an eye. The monsters were surging after them in a densely-arranged pattern.


The three demon immortals shouted in unison. Each of them launched their supernatural power to kill their way through a bloody path. Remnant limbs and corpses dropped down like rain from midair!


Liu Zheng did not expect to be a nanny on Shiwan Mountain. He watched helplessly as countless monsters were flying around. He hastily roared loudly, “Kill!”


The mountain peak broke out in noise once again. They had only gained victory in a battle earlier. The high-spirited cultivators once again exhausted their voices as they shouted wildly. They tossed the treasured weapons in their hands midair…


The monsters that were attacked were suddenly infuriated. They shook and turned around, attacking towards the mountain peak. Almost at the same time, the sound of hissing and roaring once again echoed from the foothill. Those evil creatures that were incapable of flight, came from below. They shattered all the vital energy under the heaven with their footsteps, as they charged towards the mountain peak…


There was less than half an hour’s interval between two violent battles!


It did not take long for the three demon immortals to turn back with stern expressions on their faces. There was no end to killing the monsters. They did not even manage to surge past five kilometers.


Almost everyone cracked into a forced smile. The troop of cultivator armies that seemed valiant and strong, was just a boat in a raging sea.


Right now, the boat was trapped on top of the lone peak!
