Chapter 5

Seeing this situation, the little donkey became furious and howled, "You’re asking for it! You think you’re great just because your cultivation has increased? Watch my face-smashing punch!"

With a flash of a blue shadow, the little donkey instantly appeared in front of the old man, landing a hoof right on his face.

The old man couldn't dodge in time, and it looked like his face was about to be bruised. Suddenly, a layer of white, jade-like light surged from his body, forming a protective shield that enveloped him.

"Bang~" The white light shield wobbled and rippled, but it didn’t break.

"Damn, so hard!" The little donkey retreated, staring at the light and shouting, his hoof hurting.

"Innate Spirit Treasure!"

Ding Yue was startled and quickly took out the Mountain-Driving Whip, surrounding the old man.

"Woof~" The big black dog almost bit his tongue; how did this old man get another treasure?

The three of them surrounded the old man, staring with wide eyes, a bit stunned.

A white jade bowl rose from the old man's forehead, emitting a dense, white jade light. The pressure of the innate spirit treasure was released without reservation.

"A middle-grade innate spirit treasure!" Ding Yue judged.

The old man smiled, looking at the three who were surrounding him, and said, "Fellow Daoists, please go back. Let's not hurt our friendship."

"Turns out you got another innate spirit treasure, no wonder you’re so arrogant, woof~" The little donkey's face was bitter, his eyes hot as he spoke, grinding his teeth.

"What should we do?" The big black dog, worried about kicking an iron plate again, couldn't help but ask.

"I'll try!" Ding Yue, unwilling to give up, made the Mountain-Driving Whip emit a yellow light and lashed out.

The high-grade Mountain-Driving Whip had great power. Caught off guard, the old man was knocked off the cloud and fell to the ground. Although he was protected by the spirit treasure, he was still dizzy and disoriented.

"Innate Spirit Treasure!" The old man couldn't help but exclaim. A cloud of immortality appeared under his feet, and he hurriedly ran, trying to escape.

"Trying to run!" The little donkey, enraged, howled and quickly turned to the old man's front, stomping down with another hoof.

Although the old man was protected by the spirit treasure, he clearly lacked divine techniques and spells. The spirit treasure was good at defense but lacked offensive power. It seemed the old man had only recently obtained it and wasn't proficient in using it, otherwise, it wouldn't be so useless.

At the late-stage Earth Immortal level, he wasn't able to exert the full power of the spirit treasure, only able to sweep out streams of magical power to tangle with the little donkey.

"Woof~ I'll swallow!" The big black dog ran over and used his innate divine ability, darkening the sky and biting down with a huge mouth.

The jade bowl emitted a bright light, and the old man hurriedly activated it, channeling his magical power into it.

Ding Yue stepped forward, continuously lashing with the Mountain-Driving Whip, sending out waves of earth-yellow light with the power to move mountains and drive away immortals, making the old man's protective shield wobble and shake.

"Fellow Daoists, if you lend us the Heaven and Earth Spirit Source Tower, we will leave immediately," Ding Yue shouted while continuously lashing.

The old man, his hair standing on end with anger, didn't say a word, only activating the jade bowl to protect himself.

"This is a turtle shell, so hard. The old man's magical power isn't weak, and we can't take him down in a short time. What should we do?"

The big black dog, having used his divine ability several times, was a bit tired, and Ding Yue, using the Mountain-Driving Whip, had also consumed a lot of magical power.

Only the little donkey remained as energetic as ever, happily bouncing and stomping down with his hooves, making a loud noise.

"Let's trap him. We've already made an enemy, so we can't let him escape."

Ding Yue, speaking, suddenly exerted his strength and lashed the old man, catching him off guard and whipping him back into the cave on Little Lucky Mountain.

"Phew~" Ding Yue panted heavily, quickly sitting down to recover his magical power, and innate spiritual energy rushed into his body.

The little donkey and the big black dog immediately blocked the cave entrance to prevent the old man from breaking out.

"Ah! You're too much!" The old man roared, lashing out with his magical power, trying to break out with the jade bowl.

"I'll beat you, ah ah ah ah~" But the little donkey's hoof sent him back.

"Woof~ Old man, hand over the spirit treasure, or you won't escape today." The big black dog, feeling arrogant again, kept threatening, his big mouth constantly biting at the old man.

The little guy also rushed over, standing behind the big black dog, excitedly howling and sending out black-red magical power at the old man, though it wasn't very powerful, it was better than nothing.

This made the little guy, who was fighting for the first time, very excited.

"Beasts! No way!" The old man roared, but his magical power was also severely depleted, and he hurriedly channeled his magical power, absorbing spiritual energy to recover.

Ding Yue, having recovered some magical power, stood up and looked at the old man, saying, "Fellow Daoist, if you hand over the Heaven and Earth Spirit Source Tower, we will leave and won't harm your life. What do you say?"

"No way!"

Not getting an answer, Ding Yue lashed out again, knocking the old man over, making him look very disheveled.

The old man, feeling bitter, had not fully mastered the jade bowl, and today his life was in danger. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hesitate.

Seeing that they couldn't take down the old man in a short time, Ding Yue frowned. The old man's magical power was much deeper than theirs, and he recovered quickly. This could go on for ten or twenty years.

"I'll set up an array to trap him, then think of a way." Ding Yue said, quickly flying up.

Observing the terrain of Little Lucky Mountain, Ding Yue thought for a long time and then activated the Mountain-Driving Whip, which grew to hundreds of feet long in the wind.

"Boom~!" The Mountain-Driving Whip struck a small mountain, and with a flash of light, the small mountain emitted a loud rumble and moved forward hundreds of feet.

Driving mountains and moving immortals! This was the power of the Mountain-Driving Whip.

Using this whip, Ding Yue's face turned pale, and he quickly landed to recover his magical power, as this one strike had exhausted his magical power.

"My realm is still too low." Ding Yue sighed. At the peak of True Immortal, using a high-grade innate spirit treasure, he could only use it twice before running out of magical power.

After a long time, Ding Yue recovered his magical power and stood up again, driving mountains and moving immortals.

After several stops and starts, it took nine days for Ding Yue to finally complete his task, with nine small mountains surrounding Little Lucky Mountain, forming an array.

During these days, the little donkey and the big black dog continuously blocked the old man, preventing him from breaking out.

Ding Yue came to the cave entrance, and the little donkey and the big black dog finally breathed a sigh of relief. These few days of continuous magical power consumption had left them very tired, with several wounds from the old man, and they were all barely holding on.

The old man's eyes were bloodshot, and he had several dog claw marks on his body, with his forehead bruised and purple, clearly having been hit by the little donkey.

"Why do you insist on this, Fellow Daoist!" Seeing this, Ding Yue couldn't help but sigh, feeling a bit reluctant, but he couldn't let the old man go. The cause and effect had already been set, and he couldn't let it go. Moreover, in the chaotic world, enhancing one's strength was crucial.

And innate spirit treasures were the hard truth, and he couldn't let them go!

Thinking of the harsh environment of the chaotic world, Ding Yue had no choice but to seize the treasure.

"Nine Mountains Locking Spirit, activate!"

Standing in the air, Ding Yue held the Mountain-Driving Whip, made the hand seals, and sent out a stream of magical power.

Instantly, the nine small mountains flashed with light, and a vortex appeared on each mountain, emitting a powerful absorption force that quickly drained the spiritual energy within a few miles of Little Lucky Mountain.

"Condense!"

With a rumble, the nine small mountains spewed out a vast amount of spiritual energy, forming a layer of spiritual energy shield that enveloped Little Lucky Mountain.

The Nine Mountains Locking Spirit Array was a simple array that Ding Yue had comprehended from the Mountain-Driving Whip, with the effect of sealing spiritual energy and trapping people.

"Fellow Daoist, give up the resistance, and we will spare your life!"

Ding Yue stood in the air, shouting to the old man in the cave.

The little donkey and the big black dog, meanwhile, went to the nine small mountains to absorb spiritual energy and recover their magical power.

"Hmph!" The old man, unwilling to admit defeat, coldly snorted, "It's not decided yet, Fellow Daoist is too optimistic."

Saying this, the old man closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, only activating the jade bowl to protect himself.

The old man focused on defense, and Ding Yue had few options, only able to continuously deplete the old man's magical power, taking turns with the little donkey and the big black dog. The little guy occasionally joined in.

Thus, the jade bowl's light kept flickering, protecting the old man, whose face became increasingly pale as his magical power was almost depleted.

The innate spiritual energy of Little Lucky Mountain was now almost completely absorbed by the array, leaving very little, and his magical power could not be restored.

"Put in more effort, this old man is almost done." The big black dog excitedly roared, using his claws without his divine ability.

"Watch how I finish you off!" The little donkey howled, bouncing and staring at the jade bowl, his eyes gleaming.

An innate spirit treasure!

Just as the old man was about to run out of magical power, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a light flashed in his hand. A three-story, sky-blue tower appeared, emitting a radiant light.

Seeing the tower, Ding Yue knew it was the innate spirit treasure, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Source Tower, and his heart raced.

"Old man, you've lost. But now it's not just about one spirit treasure. Hand over both spirit treasures, and I'll spare your life."

The little donkey, looking happy, shouted, victory in sight!

"Hmph!" The old man coldly snorted, not responding. Suddenly, the tower in his hand trembled, and something fell into his hand.

A fragrant aroma instantly filled the cave, refreshing the mind and spirit.

Ding Yue focused and saw that the old man now held a fist-sized fruit.

The fruit was jade-colored, emitting a gentle white light, with intricate patterns, exuding a mysterious aura. Scenes appeared around the fruit, such as fairies scattering flowers, golden lotuses rising from the earth, purple qi coming from the east, and the chaos qi overflowing.

"What is this?" The little donkey exclaimed, clearly a spiritual object, or it wouldn't have such an aura.

The big black dog, eyes hot, felt refreshed by the fragrance and had recovered a lot of magical power, eager to snatch it.

The little guy also sniffed, eyes gleaming, almost drooling.

"An innate spirit root fruit!" Ding Yue suddenly exclaimed, ordinary spirit roots wouldn't have such an aura.

The old man, looking at the fruit, felt a surge of excitement, swallowed, and then without hesitation, swallowed the fruit.

"Move!" Ding Yue's eyes twitched, immediately reacting, channeling all his magical power into the Mountain-Driving Whip and lashing out.

"Bang~" A loud boom, the jade bowl's protection finally broke, and the bowl let out a mournful cry, falling to the ground.

The old man was immediately whipped against the cave wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and the Heaven and Earth Spirit Source Tower also fell to the ground.

Ding Yue was about to step forward when a strong aura suddenly surged from the old man, his essence overflowing.

"Heaven Immortal!" Ding Yue's face changed, looking grim, and he quickly lashed the whip to pick up the jade bowl and the Heaven and Earth Spirit Source Tower, pulling the little guy and calling the big black dog and the little donkey to retreat hastily.
