Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Bang!

As Guan Rufeng led the young talents toward the northeast, he suddenly heard a loud sound, followed by a figure flying out, spurting blood wildly in the air.

Seeing this, the faces of Guan Rufeng and Liu Hanyi turned extremely grim, because they recognized the figure spurting blood as one of the outer stewards of Lianyun Mountain.

Now the intruder, without saying a word, severely injured and made the steward of Lianyun Mountain spurt blood, with even his life uncertain. It was clear that the visitor was openly challenging the Meridian Refining Master Association.

”Who dares...”

Splash!

Just as Guan Rufeng was still a hundred feet away, another questioning voice rang out, carrying a faint familiarity.

However, just as the voice uttered a few words, they heard a strange sound of flowing water, and the elder who made the sound seemed to be heavily struck by a water column, abruptly silencing.

”It’s Elder Feng!”

Liu Hanyi, having keen eyesight and being from the Sky Poison Institute, recognized at a glance that the figure struck by the heavy hit was the institute’s number two, Feng Qiyun.

It is worth mentioning that, due to the Poison Meridian Skill cultivation method taught by Yun Xiao, which Dean Qingmu Wu of the Sky Poison Institute shared openly, almost everyone benefited.

People like Qingmu Wu himself, or his once most esteemed disciple, Ye Ku, or those elders of the Sky Poison Institute who have reached the Earth Bending Realm level.

Now, Feng Qiyun was indeed a true Floating Life Realm Early Stage expert, yet he couldn’t withstand even a single blow from that water column.

The scene of Feng Qiyun being gravely injured sent chills through Guan Rufeng’s heart, ebbing some of his confidence as he realized that even being surrounded by Floating Life Realm cultivators today might not be enough to resolve the crisis at Lianyun Mountain.

”That water column...”

On the side, Mo Qing, witnessing the water column that blasted Feng Qiyun away, looked troubled, as if recalling something, yet unable to be certain.

”Hurry and save them!”

In just a while, Lianyun Mountain had already suffered heavy casualties. The many elders from both institutions who rushed here first fell gravely injured under the sporadically erupting water columns.

Even the Floating Life Realm cultivators, Feng Qiyun and Qiu Xian, couldn’t withstand it. Guan Rufeng’s grave voice was merely to prevent Lianyun Mountain from suffering further losses.

”Yun Xiao, come out here!”

Yet, just as Guan Rufeng led several talents swiftly towards the direction of the attack, an earth-shattering voice suddenly reverberated across the entire Meridian Refining Master Association, filled with boundless dominance.

”This... this voice... is it that Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit You River?!”

Mo Qing, who had been suspicious, immediately identified the familiar yet dominating voice, finally realizing where his vague familiarity originated from.

”What?”

Upon hearing this, Guan Rufeng’s face changed drastically, as did the faces of Ling Wan and Liu Hanyi, who had once been to Impermanence Island, signaling they too recognized the voice’s owner.

Swish swish swish...

When the dominating voice subsided, a gigantic figure suddenly appeared above Lianyun Mountain, resembling shapeless flowing water, continuously shifting form in the sky, appearing extremely mysterious.

”It really is it, the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit You River!”

Liu Hanyi’s face turned so dark it seemed water might drip from it. Having seen the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit You River near the center lake on Impermanence Island, she immediately recognized it.

Back then, the You River, under Yun Xiao’s methods, might have been at its wits’ end but still showcased prowess far beyond the strengths of a Heavenly Realm expert.

If it weren’t for Vice Palace Master Fu Lingxue of Wuyan Palace and Vice President Lu Tianrun of Spirit Fighting Commerce being cowardly, the You River might have been forever trapped on Impermanence Island then.

Since the battle on Impermanence Island, despite numerous great powers sending people across the continent to search, not a trace of it was found. This had long been a thorn in the hearts of the top cultivators on the Tenglong Continent.

No one expected that the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit You River, which escaped from Xuanyin Cave and caused a huge ruckus on Impermanence Island, would show up at Lianyun Mountain today, catching everyone off guard.

”This is troublesome!”

Gazing at the massive strange spirit expert, like a black ghost yet also like shifting water, Guan Rufeng’s heart sank to the bottom. The overwhelming aura from the entity pressured him immensely.

Guan Rufeng could only imagine, since the You River dared to come, it must have absolute confidence, perhaps having recovered to its peak state, making even the President possibly no match for it.

Moreover, with the current Meridian Refining Master Association, the President Lu Yanji isn’t present, neither are the two Vice Presidents nor the Qingmu Wu of the Lingyun Realm. How can we possibly withstand that Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit?

”Damn creature, if the President and Yun Xiao were here, would you dare come to Lianyun Mountain?”

Just as Guan Rufeng’s heart was growing sombre, Liu Hanyi had already leapt forward several meters, her beautiful eyes fixed on the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Ghost River in the sky, speaking with absolutely no courtesy.

Liu Hanyi was shrewd, and in that instant, she grasped the intentions of the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit. This being surely knew that Lu Yanji of the Heavenly Realm Middle Stage was not at the Meridian Refining Master Headquarters, which is why it dared to come alone.

After all, the news of the battle at Demons Mountain had already been spread through Shenxiao Sect, causing an uproar across the entire Tenglong Continent. The Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Ghost River’s Spiritual Wisdom was no lesser than that of humans; it surely heard the news.

Its choice to attack Lianyun Mountain at this time clearly had its own plans, although Liu Hanyi spoke thus, she was faintly aware of the opponent’s intentions in her heart.

”Haha, since Yun Xiao isn’t at Lianyun Mountain, let him come to meet me on his own!”

Seeing that his intentions had been unveiled by that human woman, Ghost River did not seem remotely angered, instead, laughed heartily a few times, then suddenly a water stream tentacle rolled towards Liu Hanyi in fury.

Splash!

Amidst the splattering water, the water stream tentacle ultimately did not reach Liu Hanyi, for at present, Liu Hanyi was indeed a genuine Floating Life Realm Peak expert.

That Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Ghost River’s missed strike clearly took him by surprise; he was a Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, dealing with a human Floating Life Realm Peak young genius should have been easy.

Yet what the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Ghost River did not know was that Liu Hanyi was unlike other ordinary Floating Life Realm Peak experts, her abnormal physique with the Immortal Poison Body, her combat strength was far superior to cultivators of the same level.

Whoosh...

Just as Ghost River was momentarily stunned, a breaking wind sound suddenly echoed from beside him, and when he turned his unknowing gaze to see, he immediately saw a peculiar flesh ball, already mere inches away from him.

”What the heck is this thing?”

Despite being a Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit, having seen countless bizarre Strange Spirits, Ghost River couldn’t instantly recognize the flesh ball with special aura before him.

This peculiar flesh ball was naturally the Mixed Element One Qi Body transformed by Ling Wan. Seeing Liu Hanyi in danger, he didn’t hesitate in the slightest, immediately assuming his strongest form.

Regrettably, Ling Wan only possessed Floating Life Realm Peak cultivation, not surpassing Liu Hanyi in strength, and though becoming the Mixed Element One Qi Body enhanced his power, it ultimately couldn’t match the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit.

Smack!

As a water stream tentacle struck from midair, it hit the Mixed Element One Qi Body created by Ling Wan squarely, making a loud sound, then the flesh ball of Ling Wan was sent soaring back like a hit ball, flying dozens of meters away.

Bang!

Ghost River, having hit Ling Wan away, suddenly felt a blazing heat rise behind him. When he turned to look, he found a similarly young human maiden holding a flame, ready to strike at his main body.

Assailing this time, it was unexpectedly Mo Qing, possessing the Pure Yang Immortal Body, and the flame in her hand was undoubtedly the indomitable Pure Yang Immortal Fire.

The power of this Pure Yang Immortal Fire would not be much weaker even compared to Chi Yan’s Burning Flame, and like Ling Wan, Mo Qing used her strongest means in her first strike.

However, the disparity between them was simply too vast, plus the water-attributed Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit Ghost River naturally detested these fire-attributed essences, this strike was unexpectedly more forceful than against Ling Wan.

Clash!

A water column tentacle appeared out of thin air in the sky, accurately striking Mo Qing’s delicate body, viciously flinging the graceful maiden away, yet she ultimately managed to strike the Pure Yang Immortal Fire onto the water column tentacle.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

A continuous rise of steam, the Pure Yang Immortal Fire indeed stood out, no matter how Saintly the Spirit Ghost River’s tentacle was, it was also burned to considerable evaporation at this moment, leaving the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit fuming.

Although Ghost River quickly severed that water stream tentacle, to almost be harmed by a human Floating Life Realm Peak ant was rather damaging to his pride as a Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit.

In truth, if not for having its own schemes, a single move could have decimated all these human Floating Life Realm geniuses.

Now, with Liu Hanyi, Mo Qing, and Ling Wan each employing unique tactics, they merely incensed Ghost River slightly; truly wounding the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit was clearly impossible.

Splish! Splash! Splish...

When Liu Hanyi and the others’ attacks missed and they were almost severely injured, their faces all turned extremely grim, and at that moment, the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit made new moves.

It could be seen that stream tentacles extended rapidly from Ghost River’s main body, quickly stretching to the sides of Liu Hanyi and the others, binding them tightly all over.
