Chapter 29

In the sunny and bright Microcloud Valley, all the demons present felt a chill, which swept over "Fairy Nishang" Li Yuchen and then glanced at Ye Ku, who had a pained expression, instantly giving rise to the intention to retreat.

Luo Qingyin stepped on a green silk, her expression indifferent. She looked at the nearly ripe fire dragon fruit, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her lips slightly pouted. She wondered where Brother Lu had gone, as he had not appeared yet. There was only fifteen minutes left before the fire dragon fruit would be ripe. All the demons present focused their attention on the fire dragon fruit, for it was extremely precious. They learned from the Flame Wu Order that this spiritual fruit was worth two thousand merit points! This made all the demons extremely envious, which was also the reason why many demon clans gathered in Microcloud Valley.

Half an hour later, a scorching ray of light shot out from inside the fire dragon fruit. Someone in the crowd of demons suddenly shouted loudly, "Brothers, let's go! Everyone use their own abilities. I don't believe these two can stop us!"

The demons were incited and began to stir, seemingly convinced, but they still hesitated. At this moment, another fiery ray of light shot out from the fire dragon fruit, even more intense and violent than before. This made the demons even more agitated, and the atmosphere became extremely tense. Li Yuchen and Ye Ku's expressions changed, and they both moved swiftly, shooting towards the fire dragon fruit.

Someone in the crowd of demons shouted again, "No good, these two want to eat alone! Everyone, hurry up and go, or there will be no chance!" The demons could no longer hold back, and they all roared and rushed towards the two.

Ye Ku's expression hardened, but his hands did not stop. A cold light flashed as he swung his Mo Dao, and the demons who rushed forward immediately felt a terrifying chill. They were about to turn and escape, but the Mo Dao already came with a terrifying force.

"Swish—" Several heads were directly thrown out. Ye Ku's expression turned cold, and he inhaled, generating a terrifying suction. The demons' vital essence was completely drained, and Ye Ku, like a fierce tiger or a mighty dragon with a blood-red mouth, moved freely among the demons. Each time he devoured a demon, his complexion became more rosy, and the aura of suffering around him became stronger.

Li Yuchen, like a fairy in the cold moon palace, did not eat the smoke of the world. Her attacks were not as brutal, but they were still filled with killing intent. She wielded a long sword, and the demons, upon closer inspection, saw that it was an exquisite magical weapon. They felt a bit intimidated, as they had only managed to obtain a mid-grade magical weapon through hard fighting. Li Yuchen's eyes were filled with killing intent, and her sword moved, sending out cold light and icy cold air.

"Roar—" Li Yuchen lightly waved her magical sword, forming a sword seal. Cold air danced wildly, like a massive ice dragon surrounding her. The powerful energy swept through, causing a strong wind to blow in Microcloud Valley, and countless ice and snow swept through the valley like knives and swords.

"Mustang Zhou Tian, dispel illusions and return to the origin, countless primordial energies, return to my body!" Li Yuchen lightly commanded, and terrifying primordial energy was plundered, transforming into essence energy, like a surging river, pouring into her sword. The entire sword suddenly burst with a sharp edge, cutting towards the rushing demons.

"Boom—" The massive explosion echoed in the cold wind, causing the entire Microcloud Valley to reverberate.

Li Yuchen and Ye Ku stood side by side, both silent, as if they had reached some kind of agreement. They looked down at the fleeing demons with a cold expression, as if they had done something very ordinary.

"Hum—" Just as Li Yuchen and Ye Ku relaxed, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the void, and a black ghostly hand appeared, carrying a terrifying force, rushing towards the two.

Ye Ku's expression tightened, and he said, "Tenth level of Qi Cultivation!" The aura of suffering around him surged, and a young monk in rough cloth slowly appeared behind him. The monk was very young, with a kind and benevolent appearance, exuding an aura of saving all beings from suffering. A moon-white light, like a Dharma wheel, appeared behind Ye Ku. The ghostly hand paused slightly, seemingly surprised that Ye Ku was a disciple of the Buddhist sect, possibly a disciple of a powerful master.

"Treasure Light Bodhisattva!" Luo Qingyin did not participate in this battle but watched coldly from the side. She had only intended to watch the battle, but she was surprised by the sudden appearance of a disruptor, and even more surprised that Ye Ku was a disciple of an ancient great being! A disciple is a term similar to a disciple, but a disciple has a higher status because they are protected. For example, Ye Ku is a disciple, and Treasure Light Bodhisattva would use some small means to protect his disciple, such as secret techniques, pills, or a thread of divine consciousness. Ye Ku did not reveal his full aura until the black hand appeared.

Ninth level of Qi Cultivation, Great Perfection!

"Who would have thought you are a disciple of Treasure Light Bodhisattva!" A old man suddenly appeared in the void, wearing a wide black robe, his eyes glowing with ghostly fire. It was Old Wei, the ghost. "Ninth level of Qi Cultivation! Who would have thought, boy, just right, by devouring your vital essence, my strength will definitely rise to a new level! The cultivation method of Treasure Light Bodhisattva will be mine!"

Hearing Old Wei's words, Ye Ku could not help but coldly snort, but the Buddha light that transformed all beings around him became even stronger, pushing Old Wei's oppressive aura back by more than ten feet.

Just as everyone's attention was focused on the two, a cold light suddenly shot out from the other side of the space, like the first sign of danger in the darkness, rushing towards the nearly ripe fire dragon fruit.

The demons immediately cried out in alarm, and Li Yuchen's eyebrows furrowed, her face filled with killing intent. She swung her ice sword, and a sword light directly intercepted the cold light.

Just as the cold light was about to be intercepted by Li Yuchen, it suddenly paused and turned around, rushing towards Li Yuchen. Li Yuchen was about to fly with all her strength, but she did not have time to react to the flying sword turning back. At this moment, the flying sword suddenly exploded!

Boom— The intense explosion instantly filled Microcloud Valley, sweeping through the entire valley. Li Yuchen was forced to retreat, her face filled with killing intent, which turned to frost. Although this magical weapon was not of a high grade, its self-explosion was equivalent to a full-strength attack from a tenth-level Qi Cultivation expert! Realizing that she had been tricked, Li Yuchen was furious, and the icy aura around her suddenly increased by more than twice, reaching the Great Perfection of the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, even giving off a sense of being half a step away from the tenth level, just one step away!

Swish— The fire dragon fruit once again shot out rays of light, this time much stronger than before, with dense spiritual energy almost condensed into a liquid, making the demons extremely excited.

At this moment, a thin and dark figure suddenly darted out, the man who had thrown the flying sword and triggered the explosion. Li Yuchen's phoenix eyes swept over, and she shouted angrily, "Yingwen! — How dare you!" As she spoke, she shot towards Yingwen with a burst of speed.

Yingwen, seeing the fire dragon fruit right in front of him, was overjoyed and was about to reach out to it when a clear voice echoed in the ears of every demon, "This place is really lively—" Yingwen's heart instantly turned cold.

Luo Qingyin's face immediately brightened, and she called out, "Brother Lu—"
