I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 417: Chapter 376: Lying (February Monthly Ticket 500 Bonus)

Jiang Yuebai dodged the rampaging Black Mountain Tiger, rushing upward, with her eyes fixed on reaching the Yin Cloud platform where Yu Xiao had disappeared. Yet, from all sides, four black wind blades carrying an ominous aura attacked.

Without Shen Huaxi holding her back, Jiang Yuebai directly let go of the tree vine, allowing the wind to carry her away, deftly avoiding the wind blades.

Jiang Yuebai used the wind’s force to dash left and right, spreading demonic art pollen.

The Black Mountain Tiger shook its wings, scattering the pollen. It roared, and streams of black air mixed with lightning quickly condensed and compressed in its mouth, suddenly smashing towards Jiang Yuebai.

Jiang Yuebai threw out a White Vine, anchoring it to an upper tree vine, her Cloud-Mushroom-like ears vibrating, wildly stirring the surrounding Heaven and Earth Power, with White Vines shooting out from all over her body.

Single Vine Sea, waves roared.

Bang!

The black electric ball collided at the center of the White Vine, but before it exploded, it was swallowed swiftly by the White Vine.

A muffled explosion sound ensued, the explosion’s power was minimized, White Vines were severed and dissipated with the wind.

The Black Mountain Tiger hovered in mid-air with flapping wings, its fierce eyes brimming with some anger, carefully scrutinizing Jiang Yuebai.

A White Vine grew from Jiang Yuebai’s back, tightly entwined with the Divine Tree’s tree vine, freeing her hands.

Thunder rumbled, storm raged.

Jiang Yuebai, like a swift, darted gracefully in the storm, surrounded by a Green Armor Bee Swarm, with delicate Orchids blossoming from her white hair, birthing unmatched Sword Qi, shooting towards the Black Mountain Tiger.

Roar!

The Black Mountain Tiger crossed its wings forward, its metallic feathers blocking all the Sword Qi. As it was about to counterattack, several cold auras suddenly converged before its eyes, turning into chilling Ice Arrows.

Puchi!

Blood spurted, the Black Mountain Tiger’s eye was pierced by the Ice Arrow, wings flapping wildly, whimpering in pain.

The Ice Arrow Technique, which Jiang Yuebai and Shi Xiaowu had previously improved at the Heavenly Interence Sect, was launched without a sound and had demonic art Sword Qi as a smoke bomb, leaving the Black Mountain Tiger defenseless.

Five Thunders Righteous Method!

Jiang Yuebai recalled her recent realization of the Water Thunder, three Divine Thoughts channeling primarily the Water Thunder, and when it struck from above the Black Mountain Tiger’s head, the Golden Thunder and Earth Thunder followed closely, simultaneously striking into the Water Thunder.

Boom!

Black light surged from the Black Mountain Tiger’s body, fiercely clashing with the three thunderbolts, sparks flying.

The Water Thunder combination failed!

After all, the demon beast’s flesh and blood body was much more resilient than a plant body. With this demon body, coupled with the lack of a Magic Artifact, her overall strength significantly declined. Upon acquiring the Emperor’s Liquid, she needed to immediately return to her main body.

Roar!

With only one eye left, the Black Mountain Tiger furiously roared, its wings stirring a terrifying gale, its claws swinging deadly black marks, slashing through the air to attack Jiang Yuebai.

Jiang Yuebai drifted in the air, dodging, her White Vine shooting, with various Daoist Techniques aiding, she and the Black Mountain Tiger engaged in a vigorous battle.

Thunder continually descended from high above, Jiang Yuebai repeatedly attempted to combine the Water Thunder, all ending in failure.

She persevered, constantly adjusting the power of each thunder and the sequence timing of the combination.

The ordinary Five Thunders inflicted little damage on the Black Mountain Tiger, its body was so robust it made Jiang Yuebai envious.

The roars of the Blood Qilin and the cries of monkeys and eagles came from below, this place wasn’t suitable to linger, if that little white fox came up and saw her, it would definitely ally with the Black Mountain Tiger to kill her first.

The White Vine once again entangled the Black Mountain Tiger, Jiang Yuebai concentrated fully, the three Divine Thoughts simultaneously draw the thunder.

Water Thunder is primary, control the Gold Thunder and Earth Thunder!

Rumble!

The three thunders gathered mid-air, a streak of black water suddenly exploded, hammering down on the Black Mountain Tiger like rain striking a banana leaf.

The Water Thunder succeeded!

Howl!!

The Black Mountain Tiger whimpered, its body riddled with bloody holes by the Water Thunder, black feathers falling from its wings, its body swaying precariously.

Just as Jiang Yuebai was about to press her advantage, a burst of flame rose unexpectedly from behind, spewing Heaven Burning Flame at her.

Red Flame Eagle!

In the nick of time, the Green Armor Bee Swarm couldn’t form a shield in time, but a patch of green light appeared out of nowhere behind Jiang Yuebai, absorbing all the flames.

Jiang Yuebai glanced sideways, seeing behind the Red Flame Eagle, Shen Huaxi with a pale face, wielding blood-red wings, emerging from the darkness, gathering a rapidly spinning green Wind Blade in his hand, fiercely slashing at the Red Flame Eagle.

The Red Flame Eagle’s wing was severed at the root, shedding blood in the air, falling with a wail.

Jiang Yuebai reacted quickly, waving her hand to retrieve the Black Mountain Tiger’s feathers and half of the Red Flame Eagle’s wing using a White Vine, not even sparing the blood sprayed by the Red Flame Eagle, collecting it with a bud.

Shen Huaxi flew unsteadily, Jiang Yuebai saw the Three-Tailed Little White Fox appear below, raising her hand to cast lightning.

Boom boom boom!

Ah! The Water Thunder didn’t succeed, it seems it was just luck earlier.

”Let’s go!”

Jiang Yuebai and Shen Huaxi swiftly ascended to the Yin Cloud platform.

The cloud-like Yin Cloud surprisingly felt like solid ground underfoot.

”Do you have any extra storage bags and medicine bottles?” Jiang Yuebai asked Shen Huaxi.

Shen Huaxi, a bit unsteady, his face pale, fished out a storage bag from his sleeve, transferring its contents to his Storage Ring, then offered an empty medicine bottle to Jiang Yuebai.

”Pull yourself together, it’s just a bit high!”

Jiang Yuebai patted Shen Huaxi’s back, almost knocking him off the platform with her strength. Shen Huaxi looked down into the bottomless darkness below, dizziness struck again.

He had almost fallen earlier, but thinking of all the people in Iron Feather Country counting on him, and Maque waiting below for his triumphant return, he couldn’t bear to let them down, forcing himself to fly up with sheer determination.

”Let’s go inside.”

Jiang Yuebai gathered all the items, glanced at Shen Huaxi, thinking extraordinary people seeking to join the Demon Clan needed the Divine Tree’s approval, rather than serving the Divine Tree as a servant. The Demon Clan wouldn’t let an extraordinary person serve the Divine Tree.

So she and Shen Huaxi weren’t exactly competitors; the longer he held out, the more likely he was to gain the Divine Tree’s recognition.

But the Divine Tree, always asleep, who knew when it might notice these extraordinary people’s efforts.

Passing through the mist, they reached a plaza surrounded by clouds, with a cloud-ladder made of tree vines ahead, ten or so little demons of various clans gathered below, noisily arguing.

Above them hung two green demon clan characters —[Forbidden Battle].

The words exuded the aura of the Divine Tree, sacred and inviolable.

Chirp!

A cute fox voice came from behind, the lightning-struck fuzzed-up Little White Fox riding a Blood Qilin charged up to Jiang Yuebai menacingly.

Jiang Yuebai leaped back, pointing to the sign above, ”This is a forbidden battle area, just try and hit me.”

The Little White Fox glanced up at the words, shrank its neck, its fox eyes rolling, finally tossing its head disdainfully at Jiang Yuebai, walking away with the Blood Qilin.

Shen Huaxi commented, ”She is ’Yousu Xiaoxiao,’ born smaller than other foxes, yet her Divine Soul, demonic power, and Spiritual Wisdom far surpass others of her kind. She’s the most prominent Little Fox of the Yousu Clan this generation and the strongest contender for the Divine Tree Servant this time.”

While Shen Huaxi was speaking, Jiang Yuebai saw Yousu Xiaoxiao riding the Blood Qilin, stepping onto the tree vine cloud-ladder, entering the upper level.

The demon crowd ahead was abuzz, all praising Yousu Xiaoxiao’s cleverness.

”Let’s go take a look.”

Jiang Yuebai walked past the little demon crowd to the front, seeing the tree vine cloud-ladder blocked by three black, white, and gray rabbits, each holding a red fruit.

”My fruit isn’t poisonous, if you eat my fruit, you can pass.” The middle white rabbit said to Jiang Yuebai.

The black rabbit next to it immediately rebutted, ”The white rabbit is lying, my fruit isn’t poisonous, eat mine.”

The gray rabbit jumped in, ”Don’t believe them, they’re both lying, my fruit isn’t poisonous.”

The white rabbit, who first spoke, fiercely retorted to the gray rabbit, ”You’re the liar, you’re the most deceitful among us, have the guts to swear, if you lie, may lightning strike you dead!”

The gray rabbit fearlessly declared, ”Swear it is, if I’m lying, let lightning strike me, my fruit is indeed non-toxic!”

The black rabbit also stated, ”I can swear too, I’m not lying!”

Shen Huaxi frowned while listening, Jiang Yuebai squinted, ”Is this your test? So simple?”

The three rabbits wrestling together, hearing her, unanimously held their fruits up to Jiang Yuebai.

”Choose one, if you eat the poisonous one, you’ll die!”
