Jiang Li who was drinking tea while the black and white Five-Tailed Fox Demons massaged his shoulders and legs immediately became energetic.
Xuanyuan Tomb?
‘Was it the Xuanyuan Tomb of Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan?
‘Wait a minute, perhaps that was really possible!
‘Wasn’t the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox Daji one of the three demons from the Xuanyuan Tomb?
In ancient times, during the battle between Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan and Chi You in Zhuolu, they formed groups and invited countless mountain spirits to help.
The Nine-Tailed Race, the Pheasant Race, and the Jade Pipa Spirit had made a huge contribution at that time. Later on, they were allowed to cultivate in the Xuanyuan Tomb.
The Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, Daji, and the Nine-headed Pheasant Hu Ximei, had also cultivated their ninth tail and ninth head in that kind of holy land.
Later on, they were summoned by Sage Niwa and participated in the Divine Investiture Battle. They became spies who did not get along well with both sides. This led to the decline of the Tu Mountain lineage.
However, at that time, other than Daji, there was actually a nest of fox descendants cultivating beside the Xuanyuan Tomb.
It was normal for them to be able to leave some news about the Xuanyuan Tomb in Tu Mountain.
“Black Jade, White Jade, leave first.”
“Miss Wu Ya, please tell me more about that mystic realm.”
The two Five-Tailed Foxes stopped massaging his shoulders and legs and quietly retreated to guard the door.
It was not that Jiang Li was enjoying life, but his fusion of the five cores had already reached the end. As the energy of his Golden Core rose, the accumulated strength in his body would rise by a level every day.
The rapid swelling of strength made his entire body feel bloated and uncomfortable. He could only find two people to help him resolve it.
Moreover, if it was someone with a lower cultivation level, they would not be able to massage his shoulders.
After temporarily getting Black Jade and White Jade to leave, he asked about the details of the Xuanyuan Tomb.
If it was anyone else, they might not know the benefits of the Xuanyuan Tomb, but Jiang Li had benefited greatly from the ruins of the Shang Dynasty’s Chaoge City.
Not to mention several powerful treasures, the Human Emperor’s Blood Qi that had solidified in his body not only made his physique more and more similar to the human experts of the ancient times who could match Immortals and Gods, but it also gave him the title of the Human Emperor’s successor.
Moreover, he was still missing a key to open the Fire Cloud Cave. Perhaps he could find it in the Xuanyuan Tomb.
In his deduction, since Bi Gan of the Shang Dynasty had actually dared to set fire to the Xuanyuan Tomb, obviously, King Zhou at that time was not a descendant of Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, but the bloodline of the Flame Emperor. Otherwise, even if he had ten guts, he would not dare to do such a
monstrous thing.
Therefore, the token in Jiang Li’s hand was most likely the token of the Flame Emperor’s lineage. Moreover, Nuiwa’s side had the token of the Fuxi lineage.
If he wanted to open the Fire Cloud Cave, what he lacked was the token of Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan.
If Jiang Li could obtain it in advance, then he would have the advantage during the trip to the Fire Cloud Cave.
As for why Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya suddenly wanted to tell him about this mystic realm, Jiang Li knew very well.
She said that she wanted to ask him for help because she wanted to use this news to curry favor with Jiang Li and exchange for what she wanted.
He did not intend to make things difficult for the other party.
“Miss Wu Ya, you’re too polite. I naturally won’t reject such a favor.”
“In addition, I have a small favor to ask.”
“Black Jade and White Jade still have some things to do beside me. I have to personally guide them in their cultivation. It’s not convenient for me to stay in Tu Mountain forever.”
“Tm afraid they won’t be able to take over this position.”
“When we return from the Xuanyuan Tomb, I’m afraid we’ll need Miss Wu Ya’s help.”
“Miss Wu Ya, is it convenient?”
The other party had given Jiang Li a good favor, so Jiang Li naturally had to return it to her. This sounded like they were helping each other and not a dirty deal.
“Of course it’s convenient. Thank you for your help, Young Master Jiang Li!”
After both sides reached a consensus, Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya took the initiative to stand behind Jiang Li.
She reached out and placed her hand on his shoulders, taking the position of Black Jade and White Jade.
However, when she came into contact with Jiang Li’s muscles that were even tougher than artifacts, she noticed that the strength in her hand was actually slightly unable to be pressed down.
Only then did she realize that the strength of this human cultivator far exceeded her expectations.
Suddenly, Wu Ya felt a little fortunate. Fortunately, she had lost a tail and her demonic strength had been greatly reduced. As a result, she gave up on the little thought that had arose previously.
Otherwise, if she really overestimated herself and attacked, she would probably suffer a very unlucky outcome.
Jiang Li smiled and slightly narrowed his eyes as he enjoyed the other party’s service.
In fact, he did not plan to let all his fox demons stay here.
This was especially true for the two Five-Tailed Fox Demons, Black Jade and White Jade. Their bloodlines were very pure and they were very talented in illusions.
Together with the female ghost, Qin Shuman, and Daji’s finger bone, they could provide him with considerable help.
He naturally would not leave these two capable assistants in the Ten Directions Region.
It was just a declining Tu Mountain. He could just take away what he could. Jiang Li could not wait for this group of fox demons to develop again.
In addition, he was very satisfied with the news about the Xuanyuan Tomb.
Therefore, he took advantage of the situation and agreed to return this Spiritual Maiden’s position to her.
Of course, if she could eat the upgraded version of the Nine Nether Earth Fruit later, that would be even better.
Boom!
However, right at this moment, the Tu Mountain Array outside suddenly trembled violently.
The few of them walked out of the hut. The group of fox demons outside were looking up high.
They also looked up and discovered that two large holes had been created in a mountain coating barrier in the sky.
Two huge horns with spiral patterns pierced through the barrier.
“What? How is this possible! They penetrated the barrier with just one strike!”
“It’s over. The Five Banishment Demons are attacking us!”
Tu Mountain, which had always been following the policy of seclusion and locking down the region, did not have any precious resources, so they were naturally quite poor.
Coupled with the fact that the location was relatively remote and there was no large-scale spirit vein underground to support the array formation, the array formation technique was quite ordinary.
This also caused the array formation barrier of Tu Mountain to be roughly at the level of a second-rate sect in the cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region.
It was fine to put on a show usually, but when it came to a crisis, there was no way to rely on it to block a powerful enemy.
The huge spiral bull horn pulled out of the barrier, then waited a moment before crashing again.
This time, a huge hole was created in the barrier.
The water buffalo demon that he had seen before rushed in from outside the barrier.
Then, there was a huge white pig, a huge donkey, and a goat with lightning wrapped around its horns.
“It’s true! It’s really them!”
“It’s over. Even with Lord Black Jade and Lord White Jade, Tu Mountain won’t be their match!”
The many fox demons in Tu Mountain trembled in panic.
Even Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya, who was beside Jiang Li, could not help but cry out in surprise.
Shouldn’t the Five Banishment Daoists think that she was already dead? Why did they still come to their door?
Although Tu Mountain was an ancient famous mountain, it had been moved here by a mighty figure using terrifying methods a long time ago.
This was one of the remote mountains in the Ten Directions Region. Typically, no demon would fancy it here.
Why did these guys come all the way here after killing her clone?
However, what they did not know was that a few days ago, Five Banishment City had encountered a sudden calamity.
The remaining tens of thousands of demons in the stronghold had their blood sucked dry almost overnight.
Those extremely small but bloodthirsty mosquitoes could suck the blood of a demon dry in a short period of time and were extremely difficult to kill.
Even the methods of the four demons did not have any obvious effect.
Most importantly, after absorbing the blood, these mosquitoes began to reproduce in large numbers.
If not for the fact that the insects produced by those mosquitoes were not so powerful, they would probably not have been able to escape the Five Banishment City.
If they wanted to deal with those black mosquitoes, they would probably have to find demons skilled in fire.
They had originally wanted to find help from the fire-attribute chickens, fire-attribute demons, and other demons with fire-attribute talent.
However, the disappearance of their companion, the big yellow dog, during the wedding made them have some doubts.
They seriously suspected that there were some demons in this region who joined forces to harm them.
Otherwise, who could silently make a Great Demon suddenly disappear?
Now that they had lost their territory and subordinates, they went to the others like stray dogs.
If they fell into the trap set up by other demons, wouldn’t they be in deep trouble?
Therefore, after discussing, the four of them unanimously decided to find a place to temporarily settle down and slowly contact the other fire attribute demons to help.
Now, if they wanted to seize a mountain to recuperate, wouldn’t the best target be Tu Mountain which had just lost their Spiritual Maiden and had become a pushover?
Therefore, they did not come for the Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya this time. They only wanted to snatch a mountain and temporarily stay there.
“Oh? Look, our bride is actually still alive!”
The four demons looked at Tu Mountain’s Wu Ya and immediately understood that they had been tricked by the other party previously.
However, this time, she had nowhere to run!
“Hahaha, perfect. The four of us brothers are just worrying about having nowhere to vent our anger. You’re our legitimate wife. Come and satisfy us!”
The four of them were not wearing any clothes. As they spoke, a certain place that could be used to soak in alcohol swelled up violently.
If they were defeated this time, the entire Tu Mountain would probably suffer a tragic outcome.
The water buffalo stepped on the air with its four hooves. The hos on both sides pressed down and rushed down. This was an attack that was enough to directly pierce through the Tu Mountain barrier.
Demon Ox Horn!
Boom!
Under the collision, the entire mountain shook.
However, the force that could usually break a mountaintop only created a pit less than ten feet deep this time.
‘As an ancient famous mountain, the toughness of Tu Mountain was naturally far from what ordinary mountains could compare to. It was completely more than enough to withstand the power of a Soul Formation realm battle.
The mountain was surprisingly sturdy, but what was even more surprising was that the horns did not directly touch the mountain.
Instead, it was stopped by a pair of seemingly weak hands.
“The few of you came uninvited. You’re not giving me face.”
“Tl inform you now. I’m the one presiding over Tu Mountain!”
Jiang Li raised his right leg and swept it towards the huge bull head.
As his right leg swept out, it suddenly turned into a dragon tail, instantly sending the other party flying.
The huge water buffalo rolled on the mountain, shattering large rocks before finally crashing into a stone wall.
“How dare you, Black Wyrm! Who gave you the guts to go against us, the Five Banishment Daoists!”
“Watch me pull out your tendons and eat them as noodles!”
The ox demon had yet to recover from the blow.
Above, the other three demons cursed angrily.
They naturally did not believe that a True Dragon would appear in this world, and they all felt that Jiang Li had appeared from nowhere.
A large amount of blue lightning immediately appeared on the long horns of the goat demon. In just a breath, it condensed into a bolt of lightning that struck towards Jiang Li below.
However, Jiang Li did not dodge. His feet suddenly stepped on the ground as he charged towards the lightning.
The violent lightning struck his body with cracking sounds. His clothes shattered, and his body was charred.
Jiang Li’s rapidly rising figure was not affected at all. Instead, a comfortable expression appeared on his face.
Lightning was indeed much more comfortable than ordinary massages.
After breaking through the lightning bolt, Jiang Li’s right fist was covered in a layer of black scales, and he smashed his fist towards the sheep demon that seemed to be the most fragile among the four demons.
This was especially true for the two electric horns on the goat demon’s head. After removing them, they could be used as artifacts. Occasionally, it would give him an electric massage. It was very suitable.
However, the moment before it hit, a flesh-colored wall appeared in front of him.
Jiang Li’s heavy fist landed on the wall of flesh. The place it touched fluctuated like a wave, spreading the force that was enough to split mountains in circles.
Not only that, but the thick fat caved in like a swamp, causing Jiang Li’s entire arm to be stuck inside, and he was actually unable to pull it out for a time.
It was the pig demon that collided with the goat demon and endured Jiang Li’s punch.
Moreover, not only did he endure Jiang Li’s fist, it also grabbed him with a body of fat.
‘There were many enemies to begin with. Once he was captured, the outcome was self-evident.
Sure enough, in the next moment, a black shadow enveloped Jiang Li’s head.
Looking up, he saw a donkey’s hooves the size of a water vat stepping towards him.
Boom!
Jiang Li was stepped back to the ground by the huge donkey’s hooves, creating another huge hole in the mountain.
As expected, it was still a little too difficult for him to face the four demons alone.
However, it was not enough to kill him instantly.
“Impressive! Impressive! It’s said that black donkey hooves can ward off evil, right? I wonder if the effects will be better with these four hooves of yours!”
Jiang Li walked out of the dust. A shocking wound on his head was quickly healing.
He completely ignored the injuries he had just suffered. As he moved his body, the bones in his entire body crackled, and the aura on his body rose steadily.
“If not for the fact that one of the five of you is missing, I really wouldn’t dare to fight you head-on.”
“But now, let’s see if I can kill you first or if you kill me before that!”
All the demons in Tu Mountain had already rushed to the inner Tu Mountain Earth Cave to take refuge the moment the array was broken.
This sturdy ancient mountain could become the best battlefield.
He would let these four fellows resolve the swelling energy of his Golden Core Fusion!
