Journey to the West: The Mountain Shaker

Chapter 76 The Ultimate Kill 8

It was the time of sunrise, with colorful clouds in the sky. On the flying sword, which was being blown by the sea breeze, Fang Yingyue was shrouded in a hazy halo from head to toe. Auspicious clouds and colorful ribbons fluttered around her, making her look like a radiant goddess in a painting, rushing down on her sword.

A third-tier amulet that glows all over!

Holy crap!

Baisunshu was quite knowledgeable and knew such a thing existed, but this was the first time he had ever seen one in his life.

"Spendthrift women!"

Bai Sunshu couldn't help but grit his teeth. The cultivators of Aolai couldn't stand fighting that involved throwing money around. Faced with this protective talisman worth at least tens of thousands of spirit stones, Bai Sunshu felt not only frustrated but also heartbroken—he also had to throw the talisman to escape.

Not far away, the Thousand-Faced Beast unleashed a barrage of hidden weapons, like a swarm of locusts, but they all fell to the ground upon hitting the light shield, having no effect whatsoever on Fang Yingyue.

"Stop using hidden weapons! Use whatever you have in your pocket! You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub!" Hundred-Burning Rat yelled at Thousand-Faced Beast, pulling out several second-tier talismans from his Qiankun bag and throwing them at Fang Yingyue, while simultaneously channeling all his spiritual power to slash upwards with his sword.

On the other side, the Thousand-Faced Beast also took out talismans and a spear.

Amidst the deafening roar of explosions, Fang Yingyue, enduring the fierce attacks of the two and the continuous bombardment of second-tier talismans, rushed to a point several dozen feet above the head of the Hundred-Damage Rat.

She threw out several more talismans, used the Earth Rejuvenation spell to revive the broken vines, and then cast Wood-Enhancing Spell, Vine-Dispelling Spell, and Wooden Prison Spell...

He used all the spells he was good at, and even cast a mid-level healing spell on the pale-faced Cai Fei from afar before drawing his flying sword to dodge the Thousand-Faced Beast's close-range attack.

Countless vines appeared out of thin air, instantly binding the short, stocky man and Cai Fei together, wrapping him up completely. At the same time, countless vines burst forth from below, coiling and covering him...

On the other side, guided by divine sense, several talismans were accurately affixed to the bodies of the short man and Cai Fei at such close range.

The short, clumsy fellow screamed in distress, his spiritual power erupting continuously, shattering and destroying the vines around him. However, the activation of several wood-element talismans and wood-element magic arrays made the surrounding wood spirit abundant.

As long as Fang Yingyue is nearby, the vines can regenerate infinitely under the guidance of her divine sense. Her hands are freed from her feet, but her feet are entangled again, layer upon layer, making it impossible for her to run.

High in the sky, the fierce battle between Longhen and the Thief Bird continued. Longhen had noticed the changes below, but at this moment he only had two Foundation Establishment cultivators assisting him from afar. It was already extremely difficult for him to stop the Thief Bird, and he had no time to deal with the situation below. He could only hope that the rescue cultivators would arrive quickly.

The Myriad Calamity Leopard was rapidly approaching from afar, but even further away, more Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators were rushing over at full speed. Among them, the old dean who flew from the mountaintop was extremely fast; within a dozen breaths, he could enter the attack range.

"Die, all of you!"

Without further hesitation, Baisunshu crushed a second-tier fire talisman and unleashed a burst of spiritual energy. With a loud 'boom,' a large crater appeared beneath him, his Taoist robe and vines were shattered, and his entire body was charred black. However, he used this to break free from his restraints, leaping ten zhang in one bound, and cackling wickedly.

Cai Fei was also blasted, his clothes torn and his face unrecognizable. However, Bai Sun Shu didn't really want to kill him. He threw a talisman to the right side of Cai Fei's body and used his body to block most of the attack.

Cai Fei looked charred, but it was mainly burns on the surface of his body caused by burning. It wasn't fatal, and the intermediate healing spell Fang Yingyue cast on him was already working. It just made him look worse.

Ignoring his naked state, Bai Sunshu lifted Cai Fei up with one hand and yelled at Fang Yingyue, "Come on, if you dare, I'll blow this kid to bits!"

Fang Yingyue turned her face away, gritted her teeth, and was about to charge again when Wan Jiebao, the leader of the Three Evils, arrived at a speeding speed and slashed at her from a distance.

Fang Yingyue twisted her flying sword to dodge, but lacking close combat experience, she was hit by several blows. In the midst of the shock, the flying sword sank instantly, and Fang Yingyue fell down. In a flurry of activity, she could barely control herself.

Having finally stabilized her flying sword, Fang Yingyue mustered her courage and launched several talismans at the masked man. As expected, they were shattered by the blade energy before they even reached him. At the same time, she was also slashed. Although the protective amulets on her body were powerful, they were gradually dimming due to the continuous high-intensity attacks. If she were to be hit at close range, she would inevitably be injured.

Seeing the fierce blade aura, Fang Yingyue could only dodge it from a distance with her sword. The Myriad Calamities Leopard Flying Sword suddenly sank, drawing an arc. As it descended, the flying sword's body swelled up, becoming the size of a small boat.

Below, Baisun Rat carried Cai Fei in a few leaps, then kicked off the cliff and jumped high into the air towards Wanjie Leopard's flying sword. Meanwhile, Qianmian Beast was already riding Ironwood Eagle close to the flying sword. Wanjie Leopard waved his hands and pulled the two of them onto the flying sword in mid-air.

On the Ironwood Eagle, Feng Xiangguo also looked pale and dejected. The Thousand-Faced Beast pulled him out, and the two of them almost simultaneously threw the prisoner in their hands into the center of the flying sword. A small binding array immediately bound and secured Cai Fei and Feng Xiangguo.

The Thousand-Faced Beast reminded the Hundred-Benefit Rat, "That woman just threw out a few talismans, and I saw that one of them was a pressure point talisman."

Bai Sunshu was taking out a Taoist robe from his Qiankun bag to put it on when he heard this. He was stunned for a moment, quickly put on the robe, walked over and bent down to touch the acupoints on Cai Fei's body that had been pressed. Sure enough, they had all been released.

"Slap!" Bai Sunshu slapped Cai Fei across the face, then casually pressed several pressure points on him. He stood up, pulled out his bow and arrows, and fired a volley at Fang Yingyue, who was following closely behind, cursing, "Damn it, you dare to play tricks on me? One day when I catch you, I'll show you how to rip out your pressure points!"

"They're closing in, get to the top quickly." Wan Jie Bao stood alone on the tip of his flying sword, steer the sword towards the main island of Aolai in the due north direction. While using his sword energy to block the arrows shot by Foundation Establishment cultivators behind him and shatter the talismans sent by Fang Yingyue, he kept an eye on all directions, observing the situation around him.

People came from all directions—above, below, left, right, front, and back—forming a large encirclement. There were seven or eight Foundation Establishment cultivators and a dozen or so Qi Refining cultivators. Fortunately, most of them were still some distance away, and the one following behind was just a scholar.

Fang Yingyue followed closely, continuously throwing first-tier talismans, most likely entanglement talismans. However, such a literary cultivator is nothing without an array. What good is a third-tier protective talisman? It's still useless.

As long as you fly far away before they encircle you, with the Thief Bird around, even the Wood Shuttle can't catch up.

The biggest, and most real, threat is just one thing—the old dean who is flying in at breakneck speed.

The old dean's flying sword was forged by the Nine Heavens Heavenly Craftsmanship Bureau, and its speed was extremely fast. It had already flown past the Thief Bird and was swooping down on them. If the Three Evils of Aolai wanted to reunite with the Thief Bird, they would have to get past the old dean no matter what.

However, the Three Evils have been rampant in Aolai for more than ten years, so they must have their trump cards. This flying sword is engraved with a specially made Three Talents Formation, which is used for acceleration under normal circumstances. In times of trouble, the three talents can work together to deliver a blow that is no weaker than the late Foundation Establishment stage. That's why they dared to take on the mission of kidnapping people from Huaguo Mountain.

"That's enough, boss!"

Soon, the Hundred-Burning Rat and the Thousand-Faced Beast each found their place at the tail of the sword, pressed their palms against the array plate, and injected spiritual power. A dazzling white light flashed and disappeared from the flying sword, and the Three Talents Array was activated, enveloping the entire flying sword in a layer of faint white light.

With a long roar, Wan Jiebao suddenly drew his flying sword, which shot into the sky like an arrow, instantly leaving Fang Yingyue a hundred feet behind.

Fang Yingyue gritted her teeth and urged her flying sword forward, but how could she catch up? She could only watch helplessly as they rapidly disappeared into the distance.
