Chapter 260: Chapter 232: Arrival of the Six Mountains Tao Fruit, Chen Yuan Advances to Tao Embryo (Requesting Monthly Ticket) “Incense Fire Projection?” Zhao Quanzhen looked up at the golden-armored giant in the sky, whose eyebrows held a vertical eye that shone in all directions, vividly revealing a Demon Battlefield. His nasal breath tightened slightly. He had cultivated in the Enlightenment Blessed Land for over twenty years, stepping into the Second Layer of the Tao Fruit, ranking among the top three with the “True” character class in the mountains. His teacher was the Human Clan’s Martial Treasure. He had descended from the mountain with swords, slain Demons, witnessed the savage disposition of the Demons that caused devastation everywhere, and had seen in the mountains’ Demon-locking Well, even if sealed, the massively fierce Martial Vault Demon whose Divine Skills were almost inconceivable. Yet upon seeing the Golden Light depicting the Demon Battlefield, even without sound, it imposed a heavy sense of oppression on him—Demons everywhere, life-and-death struggles, edging on the brink of survival, and a momentum of ‘either you die or I perish.’ He had never experienced such a scene. When he first arrived in the desolate lands of Shu, he had heard of the Ten Thousand Mountain Demon Clan breaking through the defenses, heard of the total collapse of the local garrison troops, only to perceive superficially from fragmented news, or rather, not able to empathize truly. To be honest, being born in a Blessed Land and witnessing many of his talented peers as well as numerous powerful predecessors in Martial Arts, upon hearing such news, his heart inevitably looked down somewhat on them—after all, how could the military that was supposed to defend an entire region collapse so easily? Now witnessing this scene, his spirit was distinctly shaken. The brutality faced by these Armored Soldiers wasn’t like his carefree days coming down the mountain with clear winds and bright moons, Flying Swords suspending Demon heads, delightfully quick as the wind, encountering one or two Demons, but rather thousands upon thousands of them. It’s not the same as their need to descend from the mountains after long periods of drinking the wind and feeding on frost and dew, to cut through the mortal world to slay Demons and purge Devils, tempering their spirit, but only for climbing another level. Meanwhile, these soldiers were fighting with their lives for a clear sky and bright sunlight. “Old man must have guessed correctly! That vertical eye between the brows of the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel must be an Eye Divine Skill, refining incense, profound and extraordinary, projecting what it sees to this place.” The old man in hemp clothes spoke with a deep gaze, then his tone became stern, “It looks like thousands of miles away, this Ninth Mountain’s Colonel, along with his Troops, is engaged in a great battle with the Demons of the Ten Thousand Mountains.” “Feiyi, Lu Shu, Green Sparrow, Night Fox...” The old man in hemp clothes recognized these Demons from the fleeting light and shadows, nearly extinct outside but common here, the more he looked, the more his brows furrowed, “These Demons are different from those that have undergone constant transformations through Cultivation outside; those could only be considered ‘Demon,’ while these have inherited bloodlines and are ‘Devil,’ each with bizarre Divine Skills. At the same realm, Human Clan Martial Warriors often fall behind. Roughly feeling it, there are no less than four Tao Fruits among them.” Hearing his teacher speak so, Zhao Quanzhen’s sharply contoured face pulsed with excitement, he said solemnly, “Teacher, can these people win?” He, Zhao Quanzhen, did not wish for these people to lose. His Dantian couldn’t help but rumble, his eyes radiantly bursting with Divine Light, staring unblinkingly at the scene above, with surging Qi. “That depends on the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel!” “I can feel it, this person’s projected momentum is continuously rising, far beyond your reach. It’s hard to speculate about such a warrior who constantly walks the line between life and death!” “He’s moved!” ......... At this moment, thousands of miles away, at Weiyuan Pass, a towering pass amidst a long road. Under the pitch-black night, flames soared high, battle raged, and the roars of Demons were relentless. On the western city wall, a beam of cold light shimmered from Green Armor, eyes flashing with murderous intent, bow drawn and aimed directly at a Feiyi Demon Soldier plummeting down, its wings beating powerfully as it dove forward. “Snap” The bowstring quivered fiercely, the iron arrow burst out with a blast of air, like thundering strings shaking, trailing a brilliant streak of firelight towards the white-eyed, ferocious Second Realm Feiyi, shooting explosively forward. “Boom” The arrow light struck the demon soldier, scattering its ominous red fur. Then, a burst of fire engulfed the ugly bird, wrapping it in flames. “Screech” The demon soldier let out a piercing screech, transforming into a blazing firebird, determined to smash into the city walls in a do-or-die attack. The next second, a white line of sword light flashed across the creature, cleaving it into two with a bang. At the same time, it was clear to see that along the entire city wall, rows of soldiers in black armor held their positions staunchly, while ferocious demon shadows densely swarmed toward the wall from the ground and the sky. On top of the city wall, streams of light shot out thickly, whooshing into the air. Small mountain-cutting banners broke through the void like a volley of arrows, constantly colliding with the approaching demon images, piercing through demon soldiers one after another, bursting them open. Then, between the banners, formations were arranged and combined, and outside the entire city wall, barrier after barrier rose in succession, creating three layers of defense to block the charge of the demon army. Following that, as the orderly officers dashed along the city walls, commands from the leaders echoed out. “Vanguard Camp, position from Bing to Ji, Kan and Li, unleash the fire!” “Left Flank Camp, position from Kui to Zi, Dui and Ze, release the frost!” “Right Flank Camp...........” Along with the shouts of orders, the Ninth Mountain’s troops lined up on top of the city wall. They placed their hands on their dantian and shouted in unison, then recited spells, channeled their True Qi, and transformed their fingers into sword fingers, pointing at their respective array flags to activate them. In an instant, the three banners’ defense line buzzed loudly. On the first banner array, fire whirled on each banner face. As the flags, about a meter in height, spun in the void, the flames rose with the wind, rolling into swirling balls of fire. Within a single breath, they suddenly condensed, and beams of fire as thick as bowls shot out from the flag poles, wildly targeting the sky and the ground. Those demon soldiers who were too close in the assault, unable to defend themselves, were hit by the fire, rapidly becoming engulfed by the flames. As for those behind, they roared continuously, either dodging left and right, or spewing various colored flowing lights and Demonic Qi to defend themselves. And that was not all. The next two banner arrays spun rapidly, emitting frigid white gusts of air that surged into the rainy night sky. Soon, with thunderous rumbles, the drizzle quickly turned into a torrential downpour, covering an area of three miles. This downpour, falling on the bodies of the demons or on the ground, instantaneously turned into frost mist. In the blink of an eye, it solidified into ice, spreading rapidly across miles, encasing them in frosty white, causing the charging demons’ movements to stagger. The crackling sound of ice breaking echoed quickly, as the demon soldiers struggled to free themselves, opening their foul-smelling maws, tongues exploding out, roaring in shock and fury. At that moment, the last flag array surged tumultuously. Earthy yellow auras rolled out, shooting up into the sky, before hurling forth. The rolling masses of dirt and yellow Qi transformed into boulders three yards in size as they shot forth, creating explosive bursts of air, thundering away. “Boom” “Boom” “Boom” Falling rocks thundered, shattering the ice sculptures in the sky and creating dense craters on the ground. The weaker demons were directly smashed into mincemeat. The three volleys were unleashed simultaneously, killing or wounding hundreds of demons. A wave was cleared in front, but soon, the dense demonic shadows behind filled up again during the respite of the array and crashed heavily onto the barrier. Soon, the first barrier was breached with holes where demons rushed in, aiming to break through the second one. Immediately, on the city walls, shrill whistles sounded, and rows of soldiers from back to front clashed with iron armor, each holding axes and sabers, slapping on a gold and a green Paper talisman. Instantly, a green light emerged on these Armored Soldiers, sinking into the ground beneath their feet, while a golden light surfaced on their bodies. One was the “Vajra Talisman,” the other was the “Godspeed Talisman”; these were basic talismans issued by their lord for boosted defense and speed. Then, these ax and saber wielders shouted and leaped from the walls, forming two columns based on the barrier and slashing towards the demons that had breached the flag array. With divine speed at their feet, they moved agilely, their Sword Qi rolling out, white vapor piercing the sky, interweaving into a meat grinder, spurting flesh and blood. Against tough-skinned demons that charged at the barrier fearlessly like tanks, Armored Soldiers with a golden light on their bodies crashed fiercely onto them. “Bang” “Bang” “Bang” Men and demons were sent flying, only to charge at each other again, resuming their fierce battle in an endless cycle. Suddenly, a piercing cry came from the sky, followed by a flurry of blue luminous feathers and crystal-clear Demon Blood Essence raining down. In the high night sky, a trail of brilliant silver streaked across, a massive blue peacock burst open, and its fragmented body, pouring out fresh blood, fell like a small mountain. Following that, the silver light returned in retreat, “Clang,” landing back into the hands of a golden-armored giant. “Huff, huff, huff” Chen Yuan twisted the Three-pointed Two-bladed Spear in his hand backward, its tip shimmering coldly, tilted downwards with crimson Blood Pearls dripping from it. Between his brows now was a scorching sensation where a thin golden slit had suddenly cracked open, revealing a glaring vertical golden eye. In his eyes, a series of numbers were rapidly jumping. [Dharma Eye] 33%....41%...52%....... Within the Nihility Color Realm, streams of incense were surging crazily into his brow. This sudden influx of incense made him aware that his transformation was definitely related to Mr. Gongsun, the Novelist. However, he had no time to delve into these matters right now. The grand golden vertical eye between his eyebrows seemed to be infused with an endless stream of energy, emitting intense golden light, brightening the pitch-dark night. In the void, five Tao Fruit Demons still loomed! Just moments ago, six Great Tao Fruits Demons from Six Mountains, along with Demon Soldiers, surged forward and attacked Weiyuan Pass. Apart from the Green Sparrow Clan demon he had just killed, five remained. Among the six Tao Fruits demons, there were three in the first layer, two in the second, and one that had astonishingly stepped into the third layer, nurturing a Demon Embryo. Chen Yuan’s eyes blazed with golden light, and not far in the void, a fierce figure with three heads and shadowy golden triangular eyes was staring intently at him. It then let out a mad howl, and its demon shadow rapidly expanded. Seeing this scene, the light in Chen Yuan’s eyes shifted. “Chen Yuan: Ninth Mountain’s Colonel Realm: Fourth Heavenly Barrier Tao Fruit Realm Third Layer Luck Points: 1243 Cultivation Techniques: Dragon Subduing Stance (Perfect), Devil Suppressing Fist (Perfect), Taoist Inner Scripture Map (Perfect), Earthly Fiendishness 72 Skills (7/72) Magic: Beast Breeding, Devil Suppressing Fist Divine Skills: Consume, Dharma Eye (can be cultivated), swordsmanship, Mountain Carrying, Demon Transformation (including Mountain Lord, Barbaric Bull, Feiyi, Zheng, Pit), Marriage Dream, Heavenly Cup, Array, Host Staff Taoist Soldier: Three-pointed Two-blade Spear (Limitless: a realm of Extreme Tao, Taoist Soldier Limit Break, combat strength amplified; with each realm advancement, combat effectiveness multiplies) Tao Fruit: Nine Marvels Thirty-six Mountains Demon Suppressing Tower (78%), Demon Suppressing and Demon Refining, Prohibition Body and Soul, capable of refining Three Thousand Skills, all assimilated into the Tower.
