Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 91 - 86 Taiyin Calamity Crossing Robe

"Reporting to the Great King, many puppets have come down the mountain!"

Just as the black-robed youth came out, a small demon with a bird's head ran over in a panic to report. This black-robed youth was the Black Vein King of White Rock Mountain. Having cultivated to the Spirit Void Stage, he had refined his demon body early on and could transform into a human.

"Puppets?"

"Ten Thousand Laws region has no sects proficient in the Puppet Technique; could it be a passing cultivator?"

The Black Vein King frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Follow me to have a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, before they had moved, sounds of tumult came from the mountain base. Shouts of killing, cries of anguish, and roars resonated thunderously.

"Great King, this is bad!"

"The mountain is filled with Foundation Establishment Puppets, and there are dozens of Spirit Void Puppets, we can't hold them off!"

Just as he walked to the cave entrance, a weasel demon stumbled and fell, urgently shouting.

The Black Vein King looked towards the mountain base, seeing blood surging towards the sky.

Shortly after, he saw a stout middle-aged man spiraling in the air, transforming into a three-zhang long fierce tiger with a heavenward roar, turning to run up the mountain.

Another elder in a green robe with a ferocious face jumped up high, transforming into a White-tailed grey hawk, also flying toward the summit of White Rock Mountain.

These tiger and hawk demons, called 'Pang Mountain Great Demon' and 'White-tailed Great Demon' respectively, were under the Black Vein King's command, both possessing Spirit Void Cultivation and second only in power to the Black Vein King. Yet now, they fled in panic, a clear sign that the situation below was dire.

"Great King."

"There are thousands of puppets down the mountain; this place is not safe to stay!"

The White-tailed grey hawk landed and quickly transformed into human form, urgently speaking.

Next to him, Pang Mountain Great Demon also landed, transforming back to human form but with a bloody wound on his arm.

"Damn!"

"So close!"

The Black Vein King's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said fiercely, "White Rock Mountain is crucial; Hun Mountain Demon King will not stand idly by. If we can hold out for the duration of one incense stick, we can await the arrival of the Demon King!"

"One incense stick?"

White-tailed Great Demon and Pang Mountain Great Demon exchanged a glance, their faces showing bitterness. White-tailed Great Demon advised, "Great King, the puppets are fierce, equivalent to dozens of Seventh-level Spirit Void Puppets. Not to mention one incense stick's time, even half an hour might be too much to withstand!"

"Great King, indecision will only bring chaos! We can retreat now, and if the Demon King truly comes within the time of one incense stick, we can then retake White Rock Mountain without delay!"

One incense stick lasted thirty minutes, a quarter of an hour. Relying on just the three of them, Spirit Void Demons, they couldn't hold out.

"Let's try first!"

"If we truly can't, we must at least try to delay!"

The Black Vein King was determined; with a wave of his hand, he leaped down toward the mountain base. Seeing this, White-tailed Great Demon and Pang Mountain Great Demon looked anxious, but had no choice but to follow. They were each following orders from Hun Mountain Demon King and Red Sand Demon King to serve under Black Vein King at White Rock Mountain.

Hanging back was not an option for them if the Black Vein King did not retreat.

They had to follow.

"Black Vein King?"

Lu Qingfeng, through his Tiger Demon Puppet, saw two transformed great demons escaping back up the mountain. He was not in a hurry and ordered the puppets to encircle White Rock Mountain, first slaying the lesser demons and then quickly pushing towards the peak. As he reached halfway up the mountain, he saw a black-robed figure rushing down. Strong and vigorous, with blood boiling more fiercely than the two previous great demons, clearly the master of White Rock Mountain—

The Black Vein King!

"A mere Spirit Void Great Demon dares to claim kingship!"

Lu Qingfeng thought dismissively, yet did not underestimate his opponent. Forty Tiger Demon Puppets and fifty Wanxiang Puppets moved into position, completely surrounding him. Long-range attack puppets such as Ten Thousand Laws, Divine Shooter, and Five Elements also formed an encirclement.

"Who goes there?! Do you know that White Rock Mountain is under the protection of Hun Mountain and Red Sand Demon Kings? Breaking into the mountain and slaughtering my warriors, are you not afraid of their retribution?!"

As the Black Vein King appeared, his booming voice shook White Rock Mountain.

"Advance!"

Lu Qingfeng wasted no words, directly commanding the puppets to launch their attack.

Firstly, it was the long-range attack Puppets led by the Wanxiang Puppet, with spells covering the space and arrows piercing through the air, heading straight for Black Vein King.

Thunder!

Flame!

Frost!

Heaven Covering!

"Merely Puppets, yet you wish to show off?!"

A hint of mockery appeared on Black Vein King's face.

He stood still, his black robe billowing out suddenly, as streaks of moonlight materialized in the bright daylight, making the black robe on Black Vein King appear even more mystical, as if a black cauldron shrouded his entire body.

Once the Magic Robe emerged, the Ten Thousand Laws descended, yet they came to nothing, causing not even the slightest ripple.

"Taiyin Calamity Crossing Robe!"

Lu Qingfeng's pupils slightly constricted.

The original form of Black Vein King was the Black Vein Golden Butterfly, which is somewhat renowned among the Demon Clan.

It is also known as the Emperor Butterfly or Monarch Butterfly, implying the monarch among butterflies! Its bloodline is noble; if the blood concentration is high, once its cultivation matures, it can awaken its racial innate Divine Skills, far surpassing common methods.

Taiyin Calamity Crossing Robe!

It is one of the two innate Divine Skills that Black Vein Golden Butterfly can awaken. Once activated, the Power of Taiyin transforms into a robe, able to ward off disasters and resist Ten Thousand Laws. Black Vein King is only at the Spirit Void level, yet he commands such Divine Skills, no wonder he can occupy the Spirit Land of White Rock Mountain without fearing any other Spirit Void Practitioner!

Ordinary Spirit Void Practitioners, where can they stand against Black Vein King who is accompanied by Divine Skills.

Even if a Jiedan True Man personally took action, relying on this Divine Skill, Black Vein King could presumably hold off for a while.

The might of Divine Skills, should not be underestimated.

"Continue!"

Lu Qingfeng, upon witnessing Divine Skills for the first time, was thrilled. He commanded the Puppets to attack while observing Black Vein King deploying the Divine Skills.

Indeed, the Taiyin Calamity Crossing Robe was extraordinary.

Various techniques from Wanxiang Puppets and Ten Thousand Laws Puppets landed on it, only creating a few ripples, the damage inflicted was limited. Instead, the hundred Divine Shooter Puppets posed a greater threat to Black Vein King.

"He's stalling for time!"

Lu Qingfeng's brow furrowed.

He noticed Black Vein King's figure flickering, constantly dodging, using the 'Taiyin Calamity Crossing Robe' to resist Ten Thousand Laws. Not engaging in combat nor retreating, obviously stalling for time.

"Tiger Demon Puppet!"

Lu Qingfeng immediately switched tactics, ordering the Wanxiang Puppets and others to harass from the side, commanding the Tiger Demon Puppet to engage in close combat. Forty Seventh-level Tiger Demon Puppets encircled him, each Tiger Demon Puppet as competent as the weakest Grain Avoidance Realm Cultivator.

As they swarmed in, Black Vein King's heart suddenly sank.

...

Lu Qingfeng, along with his Puppets, attacked White Rock Mountain.

Thousands of miles away in Zhouyun Mountain, two small demons were in a cave, watching an image. This large image reflected the scenes of White Rock, suddenly filled with Puppets breaking into the view, clearly showing the landscape of White Rock Mountain.

"What is this?"

"Somebody is making a move on White Rock Mountain."

"Let's watch for now."

The two small demons quickly exchanged words.

They were ordered to monitor White Rock Mountain using the Thousand-Mile Shadow Projection Technique; over the years, there have been attacks on the mountain, all of which Black Vein King resolved. Rashly reporting it, if they make a big deal out of nothing, they might even get punished.

But the next moment.

Puppets ravaging the mountain, two Spirit Void Demons on White Rock Mountain fled in disarray, the two small demons realized the urgency and raced out.

...
