Chapter 356: Corpse of An Immortal Daemon; Jade Tower, Immortal Item

“Full-fledged Mahayana!”

“His physique is also extremely vigorous. It is clear that the extent of his body’s cultivation alone has reached frightening heights!”

The Sixth Elder of the Green Hill Foxes was Mahayana-advanced. He had a.s.sumed the appearance of a middle-aged man, although both his nose and ears retained fox traits and there were several red whiskers over his mouth.

The Seventh Elder—the youthful looking vixen—was a complete textbook definition of ‘fox spirit’. The think silk dress she wore kept swaying as the wind moved, her stunning figure revealed from time to time... whatever could be shown was shown, and while what should not be was shown a little too.

It was especially the case for her woolly tail, which swayed left to right mischievously, prompting an impulse to tear it out.

The two Daemon Foxes communicated discreetly with acoustics and were all smiles despite their inward shock. Even so, they did not move too far away from the mountain-guarding array as Seventh Elder took a small step forward and smiled lightly. “Your reputation precedes you, Brother Jiang He, and it is obvious that you are indeed extraordinary.”

On the other hand, Jiang He’s face was filled with wariness.

He must not be careless!

He would lose more than what he gained if he were to be ensnared by the Green Hill Foxes.

Was there anyone who knows not of the cunningness of foxes?

He stopped twenty-five kilometers away from the Green Hill Foxes’ mountain-guarding array, and closely studied the two foxes before him to capture their aura. Still, he did not impatiently charge the Violet Sky Thunder Talismans at once, and instead asked, “May I ask what is the name of the one who had fled from my sword and then ran to my house to send a written invitation?”

“Are you referring to Elder Fabulous Fox?”

Seventh Elder smiled. “He is setting up a banquet in our Holy Grounds to receive you, Brother Jiang He. This way, please.”

Naturally, she could not tell Jiang He that Fabulous Fox had been mysteriously slain by heavenly thunderbolts.

Even so, Jiang He did a double take at her words.

He exclaimed in surprise, “So that unlucky fool is called Fabulous Fox?”

“Wait...”

“What do you mean, he’s not dead?”

Raising his hand to check the two Violet Sky Thunder Talismans he was holding, Jiang He appeared a little surprise and asked in surprise, “No way! The aura on the written invitation it gave has faded. How could he not be dead? Or did the Violet Sky Thunder Talismans I’d used did not actually kill him?”

The Green Hill Foxes’ Sixth Elder and Seventh Elder traded glances, and both could see the fear in the other’s eyes.

Sixth Elder then shrieked, “You were the one who had invoked that cloud of calamity?”

In the next instant, she had turned into a puff of smoke that darted straight into the Green Hill mountain-guarding array, while Sixth Elder yelled, “Hurry! Invoke the ancestral immortal’s body and the immortal item...”

Even so...

It was already too late.

Jiang He threw two Violet Sky Thunder Talismans into the air then, locking on to Sixth Elder and Seventh Elder’s aura as he charged them.

In the next split second, two thunderclouds extending up to twenty kilometers squared appeared out of nowhere above the skies of the Green Hill Foxes’ Holy Ground. Jiang He stared at both clouds of calamity and could not help scowling and complaining. “d.a.m.n it... I can’t even sense much power even though I’m this close... could these Violet Sky Thunder Talismans be duds?”

Nonetheless, just like the cloud of calamity that erupted before, one would not sense much power from it unless they were targeted—Jiang He certainly did not know that.

Even so, the Violet Sky Thunder Talisman was already released.

He should at least observe the specific effect, should he not?

That was what Jiang He thought...

If the Violet Sky Thunder Talismans were indeed duds, he would have to change his approach and charge inside by invoking the Sword Array of Ten Realms and Infinity.

That said...

Jiang He turned towards the mountain-guarding array standing over Green Hill.

Why could he hear cries of panic from within even from outside array?

And it seemed to be that coquettish vixen’s voice too... why was she so scared?

Meanwhile, the beautiful vixen was screaming with despair written all over her face.

Likewise, fear filled Sixth Elder’s face entirely.

They finally experienced the insignificant thunderclouds that targeted Fabulous Fox just now. Even though the thunderclouds appeared plain and weak to others, they were exerting unmatched pressure upon them.

They felt as if death loomed over them even before the heavenly thunderbolts struck down upon them.

Most importantly, the thundercloud locked on to their aura and there was no way to run. Even if Seventh Elder attempted to warp inside the Green Hill Foxes’ Holy Ground, the thundercloud up in the skies would follow her no matter the place she fled to.

“Elders!”

“Save us!”

“Quick, we’ll invoke the immortal item together to stop the thunderclouds...”

Both Sixth Elder and Seventh Elder were shrieking then.

With Fabulous Fox as a precedent, the Eminent Foxes of Green Hill did not even dare to slow down. At almost the same instant that the thunderclouds erupted, all of them charged the immortal items of the Green Hill Foxes at once.

The palace hovering up in the skies above Green Hill shook and emanated divine radiance.

It turned out that the nine palaces were all mystic treasures, with each emanating the presence of premium-grade sage items. As the Green Hill Foxes charged them, they instantly a.s.sumed the form of a nine-floored Jade Tower. Divine light shone brilliantly over the tower as it flew high above, and s.h.i.+eld the two Elder Foxes that were locked on by the thunderclouds.

Boom-crack!

The first thunderbolt of retribution descended. The mountain-guarding array, which was just raised again, actually rippled like a watery surface before crumbling with a loud crack.

The violet thunderbolt struck the nine-floored Jade Tower then and actually left it shuddering.

“Incredible!”

When the Jade Tower was split into the nine palaces, each were premium-grade sage items. However, they turn into a single immortal item when they were fused—and an inferior-grade immortal item at that, though it was insignificant compared to most mediocre-grade immortal items.

With the nine Mahayana Foxes all charging it, at least fifty percent of the the Jade Tower’s potential was released. Even so, the thunderbolt left it shaking even after it struck, so one could imagine...

Any Mahayana Fox unprotected by powerful treasures would be dead from two bolts.

“What the h.e.l.l!”

Twenty-five kilometers outside the Green Hill mountain-guarding array, Jiang He, who was standing up in the air, jumped from the surprise.

Both heavenly thunderbolts may seem weakened and not as powerful as imagined, but they blew up the Green Hill mountain-guarding array with a single strike... didn’t that mean that it was not actually dispelled by the foxes before, but crumbled under the power of the Violet Sky Thunder Talisman?

Jiang He turned his eyes towards the Jade Tower rising to the skies at that thought.

The building was hovering a thousand feet up in the skies and shone with divine light as it s.h.i.+elded the Sixth and Seventh Elder. When a second thunderbolt struck it, all it had managed was to shake the Jade Tower a little harder.

The third thunderbolt of retribution descended at that and the Jade Tower shook again.

Then the fourth, and the fifth...

Both Violet Sky Thunder Talismans were grade-four, and there were eight thunderbolts of retribution altogether.

And by the time the eighth bolt struck, the Jade Tower had actually dropped a hundred feet. The many Daemon Foxes who charged the Jade Tower all vomited blood at that, with looks of astonishment showing all over their faces.

They worked together to invoke the immortal item and repel the heavenly thunderbolts. Even so, they were coughing blood from the shock—how powerful could the heavenly thunderbolts be?

“Die!”

The Senior Elder of the Green Hill Foxes danced and cried out in rage then, and a strand of his Yuan Spirit flew out of his body. It slipped into thin air while he and the other eight Elder Foxes of Green Hill charged the Jade Tower and charged toward Jiang He, who was still outside.

Boom!

The world fell apart and the air rippled.

A gigantic Daemonic Fox appeared in the skies above Green Hill then.

Its body was white as snow and was three thousand feet long, just as it had six tails and was emanating thick immortal might. Its Dao swirled around itself, although it was a part of the Senior Elder’s Yuan Spirit infused into the immortal daemon fox corpse.

“Sword Array of Ten Realms and Infinity, rise!”

Jiang He charged the Sword Array of Ten Realms and Infinity, knocking away the Jade Tower with a single stroke. Even so, the colossal immortal daemon fox corpse had already reached him in the next instant!

Swis.h.!.+

A twilight radiance shot out from Jiang He’s body and took the brunt of the blow from the immortal daemon fox corpse. Even so, Jiang He was knocked a thousand feet away while blood seeped out from the corner of its mouth.

“What?”

One of the Fox Elders cried out in surprise then. “Another immortal item? Jiang He actually had two?”

“Hold on...”

“The Clear Sky Mirror?”

“Impossible! The Penglai Sect’s Clear Sky Mirror was merely a demi-saint item. It should not be this powerful even if it had fallen to Jiang He’s hands...”

Veins of divine minds intertwined, feeling a second wind reach him then.

The many Elder Foxes could hardly conceal their looks of greed.

Two immortal items...

The Green Hill Foxes would claim both if they had managed to kill Jiang He, and their power would definitely overwhelm all cultivators when it happens.

“So powerful!”

Jiang He, who was sent flying fifty kilometers away, wiped off the blood on the corner of his mouth.

He could fend off the Jade Tower that the Elder Foxes had invoked together and even strike it with his Sword Array of Ten Realms and Infinity with a chance of beating them.

On the other hand, the corpse of the immortal daemon was absolutely frightening.

The immortal aura and the Dao emanating from it was almost h.e.l.lish, and Jiang He’s attacks were nullified completely.

Immortal, mortal...

Those were the two tiers of existence.

And as he watched both the Jade Tower and the immortal daemon corpse charging toward him again, Jiang He knew very well...

On this day, even if he would overwork himself and eat peppers to increase his combat power, he would not win against the immortal daemon corpse...

He had to come up with something else.

Once again invoking the Sword Array of Ten Realms and Infinity and using the Clear Sky Mirror to take the brunt of the immortal daemon corpse’s attack, Jiang He ensnared the many veins of aura as he fought. The price of that was being struck a sword flash that the immortal daemon corpse conjured with its Dao, which left him bloodied.

Of course, his bones were not actually injured.

Right now, Jiang He was wearing a demi-immortal armor, while his physique was full-fledged Mahayana... his defense did not fall short by much compared to his attack.

With a flip of his hand, he took out a handful of Violet Sky Thunder Talismans then, cursing as he threw all of them out with a wave of his hand!

“I don’t believe in bad mojo... could you lot stop this stack of Violet Sky Thunder Talismans?”

Ka-boom!

Twelve thunderclouds formed up in the skies right then.
