Chapter 126: Seven Blood Fiend Tribulations
Lu Qingyang's finger traced the Ice Soul Sword's blade, and his blood drew a twisted Talismanic Incantation on the sword: "Fairy, this sword is quite cold. How about lending it to me to warm my hands?" As he spoke, he deliberately breathed on her earlobe, but secretly hid three wisps of Chaos Fire within the sword's patterns.
"Deng Tuzi!" Fairy Leng's frosty skirt moved without wind, and the sword's edge grazed his throat. However, just as it was about to cut off a strand of his hair, a crimson flame suddenly erupted. A blood-red pillar of light to the southeast exploded in response, and the three demonic creatures hidden within the pillar shrieked as they were burned, their six arms dancing a bizarre Nuo dance in the fire.
Su Meiniang leaned against a broken mast, giggling: "Young Master Lu's Move of 'borrowing flowers to offer to the Buddha' is even more exquisite than the Hehuan Sect's cultivation techniques."
The new fur on her severed tail suddenly grew rapidly, coiling around a demonic creature that was devouring a fisherman. The demonic creature's three blood mouths simultaneously bit at the fox tail, but only got a mouthful of poisonous Fox Fire.
"Su Jiejie, be careful!" Lu Qingyang cried out in alarm, stomping his foot. Fragments of the Green Bamboo Sword shot up in response, and he used this force to leap up. He soared like a bird, his agile figure rushing towards the fox demon, his palm "accidentally" pressing against the fox demon's waist and hips.
"This demonic creature looks exactly like the pimp from the Drunken Immortal Pavilion who peeped at young ladies bathing—" Lu Qingyang hadn't finished speaking when suddenly, seventy-two Sword Qi burst forth from his sleeve like lightning, piercing directly towards the star pattern three inches below the demonic creature's navel.
With a loud bang, the demonic creature exploded into a mist of blood under the attack of the Sword Qi. Amidst the swirling blood mist, a faint image of the Big Dipper Formation appeared.
In that instant, Lu Qingyang suddenly grabbed Su Meiniang, and the two of them rolled like gourds, quickly burrowing into a crevice in the reef. Almost simultaneously, a blood-red Lightning Tribulation descended from the sky, striking hard at the spot where they had just stood, creating a three-zhang deep pit.
Lu Qingyang and Su Meiniang pressed tightly together, his nose almost touching Su Meiniang's collarbone. He sniffed lightly, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Su Jiejie's datura fragrance is far more intoxicating than that blood fiend Qi."
Upon hearing this, Su Meiniang's face immediately flushed with a shy blush, as beautiful and moving as a sunset. She playfully chided: "You glib fellow!" As she spoke, she extended her slender fingers, like white jade, and made to poke Lu Qingyang's glabella.
However, just as Su Meiniang's fingertip was about to touch Lu Qingyang's glabella, her tail, like a nimble little snake, quietly coiled around the Storage Pouch at Lu Qingyang's waist. All of this happened so quickly that Lu Qingyang didn't notice at all.
Seeing her plan about to succeed, Su Meiniang couldn't help but secretly rejoice. She thought to herself, with just a little more force, this Storage Pouch would fall into her hands.
But just as Su Meiniang was filled with joy, something unexpected happened. The Storage Pouch suddenly trembled violently, and then the residual soul of a Little Dragon emerged from within. Although the Little Dragon's residual soul appeared somewhat weak, its movements were exceptionally agile. It opened its tiny mouth and bit firmly onto the golden bell at the tip of Su Meiniang's tail, refusing to let go no matter how much Su Meiniang struggled.
Lu Qingyang understood immediately upon seeing this scene. He seized the opportunity to grab the Storage Pouch and quickly pulled it back into his embrace. Then, he showed a triumphant smile and said to Su Meiniang: "Haha, Su Jiejie, what did the Little Dragon say? It said your bell looks exactly like the chamber pot it played with when it was young!"
A thousand-zhang high blood-red wave suddenly rose from the sea, as if a fierce beast was roaring. At the crest of the wave, seven mysterious star patterns intertwined, forming a blood-red throne. This throne emitted a terrifying aura, as if it had risen from Hell.
The Black Robed Man seated on the throne wore a Big Dipper mask, making his true face impossible to discern. In his hand, he held Ao Lie's broken Dragon horn! The Dragon horn gleamed with a cold light, as if Ao Lie's aura still lingered.
The Black Robed Man coldly looked at the three people in front of him, his voice like it came from the Nine Nether Hell: "Those who kill my Blood Fiend Demon Generals shall have their entire clan exterminated!" He fiercely waved the Dragon horn in his hand, and a powerful force immediately erupted.
The hundred-mile sea area was instantly stained crimson, and the seawater churned like boiling blood. Countless skeletal arms stretched out from the blood pool, grabbing at the three people like evil spirits.
Seeing this, Fairy Leng quickly changed her sword art, and ice lotuses bloomed around her. These ice lotuses acted like shields, blocking all the skeletal arms. However, the severed limbs did not stop attacking, but transformed into blood leeches, drilling towards her skirt like raindrops.
Seeing this, Lu Qingyang quickly threw out a Movement Talisman, accurately sticking it to Fairy Leng's lower back. The Talisman instantly exploded, a flash of light passed, and the two figures instantly disappeared from their original spot.
The next moment, they appeared behind the Black Robed Man. Lu Qingyang didn't hesitate, joining his two fingers together like a sharp sword, and stabbed towards the Black Robed Man's back.
However, when his fingertips touched the Black Robed Man's back, there was a clang of metal. The Black Robed Man seemed to have been prepared, and he backhanded to grab Lu Qingyang's wrist, letting out a sinister laugh: "This Lord was at the Peak of Body Refining two hundred years ago. Do you think your petty tricks can harm me?"
However, the Black Robed Man hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his palm. He looked down and saw that a fragment of the Bee Cloud Sword was secretly hidden in Lu Qingyang's wrist, and at this moment, it was drilling towards his heart orifice like a poisonous snake along his Meridians.
Su Meiniang's nine tails, like nimble snakes, quickly coiled around Greed Wolf's legs, binding him tightly. She smiled, and said softly: "Little Lord, your 'poisonous snake kissing the neck' Move truly complements the 'Intestine Severing Powder' that I have newly brewed!"
After saying that, the scales on Su Meiniang's fox tail flipped, and a dark green poisonous mist erupted from her tail. This poisonous mist quickly condensed into a giant datura flower in the air, then surged like a torrent directly into Greed Wolf's black robe.
With a series of crackling sounds, Greed Wolf's mask suddenly shattered, revealing half of a rotten Dragon face. His voice seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hell, filled with venom and hatred: "Guanghan Palace, Qingqiu Mountain... all shall die!"
Just then, the originally calm sea surface suddenly split open into a giant abyss, and six blood-red pillars of light shot up into the sky. A figure slowly walked out of each pillar of light, and these figures were all Star Lords!
The weapons held by these Star Lords were even more astonishing - they were all refined Righteous Path Magic Treasures! Among them, the Po Jun Star Lord wielded a Buddhist Demon Subduing Pestle, but on the pestle's head, there were eighteen heads of eminent monks strung together!
Po Jun Star Lord laughed wildly: "Hahahahaha, this Lord has used the 'Diamond Sutra' from the Heavenly Dragon Zen Temple to wipe his ass for three hundred years. Today, I shall use this Demon Subduing Pestle to send you Righteous Path individuals to the Western Paradise!"
Lu Qingyang "swished" and tore open his clothes, revealing the gleaming Heaven Severing Sword pattern on his chest, and said with a grin: "Do you all know why I only stab people in the back?" As he spoke, he used his toes to draw twisted Talismanic Incantations on the sea surface, "That's because you old monsters, with your chests pressed against your backs - none of you have an ass hole!" The Seven Fiends immediately became enraged, and their blood-colored Domain "swished" and enveloped the heavens and earth.
The Wenqu Star Lord quickly brought out the Confucian Spring and Autumn Brush, and the word "Death" he wrote actually attracted the Nine Heavens Lightning Tribulation; when the Wuqu Star Lord's twin hammers struck down, countless Yin Soldiers "whooshed" out of the space folds; the Lian Zhen Star Lord's poisonous miasma transformed into a beautiful woman, and her small hand "swished" and caressed Fairy Leng's neck... "Now!" Lu Qingyang suddenly "crunched" and crushed the Dragon blood crystal hidden in his teeth.
In the fishing village submerged by the blood waves, the three hundred and sixty Formation Flags he had set up earlier suddenly lit up. The formation patterns outlined a giant Taotie design, which "crashed" and tore a large opening in the Seven Fiends' Domain. Su Meiniang's severed tail "puffed" out Fox Fire, and from within the fire, fragments of the Burning Sky Cauldron, which she had secretly hidden earlier, flew out!
Fairy Leng seized the opportunity to insert the Ice Soul Sword into the formation's eye: "Guanghan listens to snow, sealing heaven and freezing earth!" The Chaos Fire hidden in the sword, encountering the cold Qi, condensed into an ice-fire vortex. Greed Wolf Star Lord's blood-red throne was shredded by the vortex, revealing seven Big Dipper nails on his spine: "When did you see through the formation's eye...?"
"When you used Ao Lie's Dragon horn as a back scratcher." Lu Qingyang appeared behind him like a ghost, the Bee Cloud Sword fragment already having drilled into his heart orifice, "Mr. Lu is best at scratching the backs of old coffins!" The moment the Sword Qi exploded, the seven Big Dipper nails simultaneously flew apart, and the other six fiends' bodies suddenly stiffened.
The Spring and Autumn Brush in the Wenqu Star Lord's hand, like a nimble poisonous snake, suddenly changed direction and, as fluid as flowing clouds, wrote the character "murder" (regicide) on Po Jun's forehead. The beautiful poisonous woman's movements were even faster than lightning, her backhand like iron pincers, firmly gripping Lian Zhen's throat. The Yin Soldiers, like a well-trained pack of wolves, turned their spears and stabbed at Wu Qu like a fierce storm.
Su Meiniang laughed so hard she swayed back and forth: "What a 'Big Dipper Devouring Master Formation'! Young Master Lu's method of using force against force is even three parts more insidious and vicious than fox clan illusions!" Fairy Leng seized the opportunity to freeze Greed Wolf's remnant body like frost, her sword tip, like a poisonous snake's tongue, pried open his crown: "The star pattern Legacy is actually hidden in this Mud-Pill Palace..." Her words hadn't finished when the half-Dragon face suddenly spat out a black mist like a volcanic eruption. A green Dragon claw, identical to the monster's claw, emerged from the mist, brandishing its fangs and claws, grabbing at her chest. Lu Qingyang swooped over like a bird, pressing her firmly to the ground. The Dragon claw grazed his back, tearing off large pieces of flesh like a ravenous wolf, revealing golden Dragon bones beneath, like armor cast from gold.
"Young Master Lu, you..." Fairy Leng looked at the man pressing down on her and saw him grinning: "Fairy, this Guanghan Silk Robe is so smooth. How about lending it to me as a quilt another day?" As he spoke, he suddenly flipped over, pressing the Heaven Severing Sword Intent hidden in his inner lapel into the black mist.
The moment the Sword Intent erupted, the Seven Fiends' remnant bodies suddenly fused into a hundred-zhang demonic Dragon. Seven vertical pupils opened on the demonic Dragon's inverse scale, each pupil reflecting a burning cultivation School. The Wenqu Star Lord's head shrieked from the Dragon horn: "Xuanji Old Ancestor granted us Rebirth, you ants..."
"So noisy!" Lu Qingyang stepped on the Dragon's head and leaped up, sticking the last Movement Talisman onto the Dragon's tooth, "I'll give you something new—" As the Talisman flickered, the demonic Dragon's giant mouth suddenly contained Su Meiniang's Fox Fire Pill and Fairy Leng's Ice Soul Origin. Extreme cold and extreme heat collided, and the Dragon's head instantly exploded into a bloody rain.
A phantom of a bronze giant door appeared in the bloody rain, and purple chains seeped from the crack in the door, coiling towards the three of them. Lu Qingyang suddenly tore open Fairy Leng's sash, and amidst her cry of surprise, wrapped Su Meiniang's waist with the Guanghan silk: "Two beauties, hold on tight!" As the silk tightened, the three of them shot towards the seabed vortex like arrows leaving a bowstring.
Where the chains missed, black holes were corroded into space. Yin Jiuyou's remnant body crawled out of the black hole, and the corpse beetles in his chest spelled out a smiling face: "Young man, this 'Fragrant Silk Binding' Move is excellent. Why don't you join my Nine Nether..." Before he could finish speaking, Lu Qingyang flicked a wisp of Sword Qi into him, shattering his crown: "Mr. Lu only loves to bind beauties; old coffins should be buried early!"
A star map suddenly lit up at the bottom of the sea, and the remnant blood of the Seven Fiends actually reformed within the map. Lu Qingyang wiped the blood foam from the corner of his mouth and pressed the Heaven Severing Sword Intent into his heart: "Fairy Leng, would you like to dance with Mr. Lu?" Without waiting for an answer, he already embraced her waist and began to walk the Seven Star Steps. With each step, fragments of the Bee Cloud Sword pierced into the star map's nodes.
Su Meiniang's fox tail ignited with her Natal Soul Fire, and within the blazing flames, a Qingqiu altar appeared faintly.
"My little rascal, if you agree to marry into my family, these nine tails are yours to play with~" Su Meiniang said coquettishly, her eyes like silk.
The altar's phantom slowly rose, suppressing the star map. Just then, Lu Qingyang suddenly made a Move, biting through Su Meiniang's earlobe.
"Good Su Jiejie, lend me three tails as a betrothal gift for now!" Lu Qingyang said with a grin.
Su Meiniang winced in pain but didn't get angry, instead giving him a playful glance.
That drop of fresh blood merged into the Soul Fire, instantly triggering a violent reaction. The Soul Fire seemed to ignite, blazing fiercely and burning a human-shaped gap in the star map.
From the gap, a hand covered in green scales suddenly reached out, identical to the monster's hand.
The hand flicked a finger, and a powerful force surged forth like an overwhelming tide. Su Meiniang, Lu Qingyang, and Fairy Leng were all severely injured at the same time, spitting blood and flying backward.
Lu Qingyang tumbled in mid-air, then suddenly reached out and firmly grabbed the monster's wrist guard.
"Senior, these scales on your hand, could they be scraped from Ao Lie's foot skin?" Lu Qingyang said with a teasing expression.
As he spoke, he had already smeared the entire bottle of Dragon Transformation Powder into the scale crevices.
The monster suddenly let out a painful roar, and the green scales seemed to be corroded, flaking off one by one, revealing the wriggling nebula within.
"Lower Realm ants... Ah!" The monster's roar stopped abruptly, and it suddenly retracted its hand. Another world's roar came from the gap.
Lu Qingyang seized the opportunity to throw out the Burning Sky Cauldron, shouting: "Fairy Leng, freeze its crown! Su Jiejie, poison its Yongquan point!"
When the Ice Soul cold Qi and the fox clan's potent poison simultaneously poured into the cauldron's mouth, the phantom of the bronze giant door exploded. The bloody rain falling on the sea surface suddenly turned golden, and the sound of chains breaking faintly came from the clouds. Where the sea met the sky, seven star palaces were slowly collapsing...
