Chapter 367: Chapter 336 Blood River Formation_1
“Thank you, Elder Lu, for stepping in to help!”
Xu Mu walked up to Lu Jingkong, who had transformed into the Earth-splitting Whale, and bowed his thanks.
Not long ago, he had contacted Lu Jingkong, who had hurried over as soon as she heard that he was exchanging the Twelve Startle Cicada Skill.
If the Blood Demon Ancestor had conducted the exchange honestly, Xu Mu wouldn’t have called for Lu Jingkong’s assistance, but since the former insisted on playing tricks, he had no choice but to counter it.
However, it was quite normal. After all, the three of them were Nascent Souls who had been cultivating longer than him and possessed greater power. How would such an unequal exchange of power go smoothly?
“No need for thanks, I have grievances with these three guys anyway!”
The colossal form of Lu Jingkong gradually shrank, transforming back into her stunningly beautiful self.
A blue thunder glow flashed on her body, directly annihilating a green aura.
“Five Poison! After hundreds of years, you still like to play these little tricks, haven’t you made any progress?”
Lu Jingkong looked at the green dragon.
The green dragon had already disengaged from combat and returned to the Blood Demon Ancestor’s side, taking the form of a green-robed cultivator wearing a mask.
The green-robed cultivator didn’t react much to Lu Jingkong’s taunt.
“You madwoman have certainly improved, even learned to use ambush tactics!”
The Fire Demon Ancestor glared furiously, suppressing his injuries at the same time.
“Hahaha!” Lu Jingkong all laughed: “To deal with you scoundrels, I have to use scoundrel tactics, you better be careful in the future!”
“You —”
The Fire Demon Ancestor was so incensed that his whole body shook, but he did not dare to curse too severely.
If Lu Jingkong were to pester him day after day, he would be unable to bear it.
“Lu Jingkong, did you mastermind all of this?” The Blood Demon Ancestor asked coldly as he looked at Lu Jingkong.
“What if I did and what if I didn’t?” Lu Jingkong responded with a light laugh.
“Regardless, either return the person to me or surrender the Secret Skill jade slip!” The Blood Demon Ancestor said coldly.
“Hong He, you’re still daydreaming at this point!” Lu Jingkong laughed loudly.
Ignorning Lu Jingkong, the Blood Demon Ancestor turned his gaze towards Xu Mu.
Xu Mu shrugged, saying, “I’m very sorry, but you won’t get either one!”
“Then don’t blame me for being discourteous!”
The Blood Demon Ancestor’s eyes were filled with murderous intent. The entire Blood Shadow City began to shake violently, and an aura of terrifying bloody evil erupted, like a river bursting its banks.
“We need to leave first!”
Lu Jingkong looked serious, she spat out a blue gem that transformed into a blue thunder dragon, grabbing her and darting outside.
Xu Mu was taken aback for a moment, but quickly followed.
“Elder Lu, you are known as the number one Loose Cultivator in the Outer Sea. Together, we might not win, but surely we shouldn’t have to run, should we?”
Xu Mu asked in confusion.
“That was before! This bastard has made significant progress in the last few hundred years and is no longer the equal of the me of the past. Coupled with the aid of the Great Array, even at my peak I wouldn’t be a match for him, let alone now when my physical body hasn’t fully integrated,” Lu Jingkong grumbled unhappily.
“Oh!”
Xu Mu said no more, his body erupting in thunder light as he joined up with Lu Jingkong, fleeing towards the exit.
“No matter what, hold them off! As soon as I fully activate the Great Array, it will be their time of death!” ordered the Blood Demon Ancestor.
Without a word, the Fire Demon Ancestor and the Five Poison True Monarch turned into beams of light and pursued them.
“You hold them off first, I will deal with breaking the Formation!” commanded Lu Jingkong.
Xu Mu didn’t hesitate; he halted, released a white fox puppet to guard the formation, spread out his wings, and started using his thunder ability to block the two pursuing them.
Seeing the silver thunder light Xu Mu unleashed, Lu Jingkong’s eyes showed a hint of surprise. Naturally, she knew that Tian Gang Divine Thunder Jue was the skill she had traded to Xu Mu.
She herself had practiced it too. Although she had not succeeded, she gained experience and created her very own Water Thunder Divine Skill.
It was also this divine skill that made her the number one Loose Cultivator in the Outer Sea.
Now that Xu Mu had used it, she recognized it instantly, but she couldn’t quite believe it.
“I gave it to him less than twenty years ago, how could he have cultivated it to this level in such a short time?”
Despite her great shock, it was not the time for queries. Lu Jingkong temporarily reined in her thoughts and began to crack the Blood River Formation.
Since she had prepared before entering, it was not difficult for her to break the formation. The difficulty was not to be disturbed by others. However, she had faith in Xu Mu.
With a loud noise, a gap was torn open in the sea of blood that filled the sky.
“It’s done! Go!”
Lu Jingkong turned her head back. The situation of Xu Mu being suppressed, which she had imagined, didn’t happen. Instead, Xu Mu was actually pressuring the two adversaries.
“Is the Ancestral Nascent Soul really this powerful? Or does this guy have some trump card that I don’t know about?” Lu Jingkong wondered in shock.
Keep in mind the Fire Demon Ancestor and the Five Poison True Monarch weren’t ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators. The two of them had been famous for a long time and their cultivation had reached the third level of Nascent Soul. Even in a one-on-one fight, it wasn’t easy for her to defeat either of them.
Now Xu Mu was holding the upper hand against both of them combined.
This strength was catching up to her own, how could she not be shocked.
“Impossible!!!”
The Blood Demon Ancestor controlling the Great Array was equally shocked.
Not to mention when Xu Mu made his breakthrough, just the disparity in cultivation between the three of them. The fact that Xu Mu could stand two-against-one was already terrifying.
If he had just advanced, his talent was too terrifying!
If he can maintain this for a few hundred years, he would probably roll over them.
Since he had already offended such a figure, he must not be left alive!
The eyes of Blood Demon Ancestor revealed a ferocious look, and he spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood. The whole Great Array suddenly erupted, and the gap in the formation that Lu Jingkong had just opened began to heal rapidly.
“Damn! What the hell is wrong with Blood Demon?”
Lu Jingkong inwardly sensed trouble. She then turned into an escape light and shot towards the gap. In an instant, she crossed the gap that was about to disappear and disappeared without a trace.
“…”
Xu Mu, who witnessed all of this, was speechless. But nothing he said now would help.
Although Lu Jingkong was somewhat irritating, if he put himself in her shoes, he might do the same.
“I can’t delay any further!”
Xu Mu directly abandoned the two, called back his White Fox Puppet, and dashed towards the gap which was now barely a sliver.
“Stop him!”
Even though the gap was too small for any person to pass through, Blood Demon Ancestor still asked the two to block Xu Mu, just in case.
Both of them acted without hesitation and used their best techniques.
The Fire Demon Ancestor shot out several fiery scales, made from the protective heart scales of an ancient exotic creature, Fire Scale Beast. Not only were they effective at breaking through defensive skills, but they also carried a fiery poison. Once hit, the victim would be paralyzed by the fiery poison.
The Five Poison True Monarch shot out several white threads. These threads, which were made from the web of the White Jade Demon Spider, could not only trap people but also absorb spiritual power. Once entangled, one could hardly escape.
At that moment, Xu Mu emitted a purple thunder light and produced a large halberd in his hand. He sliced it towards the gap in the formation. Instantly, the gap widened, and his figure shot out.
The attacks of the Five Poison True Monarch and Fire Demon Ancestor all landed on the formation.
“Impossible!!!”
Upon seeing Xu Mu escape, the Blood Demon Ancestor was utterly dumbfounded.
How could his Blood River Formation be so easily broken into?
