Chapter 274 -272: Nascent Soul Demon Beast
“You actually killed him???”
The face of the Three-tailed Green Fox twisted with ferocity as her entire body trembled violently. Her form rapidly swelled, and in the blink of an eye, streams of green fur burst through her transformed human skin. Her body became hunched, quickly turning into a three-tailed green fox standing ten feet tall, surrounded by Demon Qi, with three tails swaying slowly behind her, exuding an oppressive evil aura.
“It’s a third-tier Demon Beast… it’s over, a third-tier Demon Beast!”
In the devastated city, many Foundation Establishment Cultivators showed a look of terror on their faces, fleeing in all directions in a panic.
Even worse, many Qi Refining Stage Practitioners fainted on the spot due to the terrifying Spiritual Pressure of the Three-tailed Green Fox. In contrast, the ordinary people, not oppressed by the Spiritual Pressure, were only panicked as they scattered and ran through the streets and alleys.
“Old Lu, go!”
Ning Daoran, holding a Big Green Dragon spear, had several Golden Silk Swords fluttering over his shoulder.
During the city battle, he had no intention of using the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation, which was a third-tier Array. The spectacle was far too grand. Unleashing it would reveal that Ning Daoran was in fact the Independent Practitioner Jianjia. And that would never do, as Practitioner Jianjia had accumulated far too much “merit” out in the world, which could potentially implicate his Sect far off within Qingzhou.
“Boom—”
A Divine Speed Talisman was activated in Ning Daoran’s hands. In the next moment, a surge of Evergreen Technique Power erupted, and the Wind Riding Leisurely Technique was instantly brought to its peak performance. Accompanied by a slicing wind noise, Ning Daoran had already charged in front of the Three-tailed Green Fox, sweeping the Big Green Dragon spear in a vicious arc!
“You…”
Although the Three-tailed Green Fox was unafraid of Ning Daoran, his Speed was simply too fast for her to handle comfortably. Her pupils contracted fiercely as she lifted her front paws to avoid his blow.
But who could have expected, as soon as the Three-tailed Green Fox looked up, she felt a whirl of air explode above her head. Then another Ning Daoran descended from the sky. The tip of his Azure Dragon Spear enshrouded a distinct silver Spear Radiance, as a Secret Skill struck down from the heavens!
The Ning Daoran in front had only been a decoy of Paperfolk!
“It’s over…”
The Three-tailed Green Fox’s eyelids twitched madly!
After all, Ning Daoran was strong enough to overpower a third-tier middle-level Demon Beast, and assuredly he could kill one, but every hunt he performed on a third-tier middle-level Demon Beast always involved an element of surprise. Only through surprise could he achieve the greatest results with minimum loss, a lesson he had clearly seen through during his Qi Refinement days.
“Boom~~~”
With a loud noise, Ning Daoran’s Big Green Dragon landed heavily on the Green Fox’s head. After shattering a layer of dense demonic aura, the impact buzzed through the Green Fox’s skull, leaving her briefly senseless.
“Arise!”
In the next moment, four blood-red threads rose up from the surroundings, shooting straight towards the Three-tailed Green Fox.
“Don’t even think about it!”
The Three-tailed Green Fox gritted her teeth, displaying her Divine Skills. Her body quivered and shrunk to a fraction of its size, turning into a little green fox that could be held in the arms, deftly avoiding the trajectory of the spirit-catching silk.
Just at that moment, a figure dashed up, none other than Big Stupid Deer charging head-down!
“Boom!”
Amidst the thunderous noise, the body of the Three-tailed Green Fox was sent flying high by a brutal hit from the antlers, and then it was smashed viciously onto the ground. Evil Qi flooded downwards, leaving the surfaces within the city to crack open like spider webs.
One Ning Daoran was already quite a handful, and now with a White Deer whose cultivation was not inferior joining the fight, the Three-tailed Green Fox couldn’t endure it.
However, at this time, the most lethal attack had just begun.
As the Three-tailed Green Fox woke from her near-fainting state and opened her eyes, she saw Ning Daoran’s silhouette backed by a massive Taiji Eight Diagrams Dharma Image, with streaks of pure sword intent rising up. As he lifted his hand, several Flying Swords transformed into piercing cold light, shooting towards her!
“This is bad!”
The Three-tailed Green Fox’s fur bristled at the approach of the real killing move!
She quickly flipped her body, sacrificing her life essence hairs to transform into myriad defensive techniques to block the incoming Golden Silk Swords. After dodging the first three swords, the fourth broke through her defenses, slashing across the Green Fox’s foreleg, and instantly staining the white fur a deep crimson.
Then the fifth sword pierced through her hind leg, the sixth sword ran through her stomach, the seventh slashed through her throat, and the eighth penetrated her heart. In the blink of an eye, twenty-four Flying Swords poured down like a torrential rain on the ground with a “plop plop plop” sound!
The body of the Three-tailed Green Fox was still in the air, but it had become riddled like a sieve. A myriad of holes crisscrossed her body, and beneath her, a shower of blood rained down, squandering the essence blood of a third-tier Demon Beast on the barren ground.
“Go!”
Ning Daoran raised his hand sharply, and the Qiushui Sword flew sharply through the air, “crack” embedding itself in the Green Fox’s forehead, dealing a deadly blow.
“You…”
The Three-tailed Green Fox trembled all over, staggering back several steps, looking into Ning Daoran’s eyes filled with incomprehension. “Li… Liangyi Sword Technique… How do you know the Liangyi Sword Technique? It is… it is…”
In her mind, she suddenly recalled the scene from years ago when she accidentally entered the Liangyi Sect.
It was a cold winter, with snow covering the sky. She was just a small fox cub crying out, naively entering the mountains, only to be sheltered by a Sword Cultivator with an immortal charm, an Immortal Charm. He held her fondly in his arms, caressing her fur, and took her back to his Cave Mansion.
Decades had flown by, and she transformed into a human woman, intimately spending time with the cultivator. But it was revealed by the sect leader, followed by his enraged reprimand, “Junior brother, how could you be so foolish? Humans and demons walk different paths, how could you harbor feelings for her? Send her away from the mountain before she gives birth to monstrous offspring!”
“Alas~~~”
The Three-tailed Green Fox sighed with a long, sorrowful breath. The past was gone; after so many years, he surely must have reached the Nascent Soul Stage by now, right?
Upon this thought, she looked up at Ning Daoran and suddenly found that the young man bore a striking resemblance to him from those years ago. Could it be that this was fate?
“Enough, this life was sufficient…”
As the Three-tailed Green Fox smiled just before her death, she took her last breath a second later.
“What’s wrong with her?”
Ning Daoran stepped forward, his foot pressing down on the head of the Three-eyed Green Fox. With one hand, he forcefully pulled out the Qiushui Sword and, with a shake of his mana, scattered all traces of blood from it. After sheathing the sword back into its scabbard, he frowned. The sly look in that fox’s eyes just now was truly obnoxious, and he wondered what was wrong with it.
He didn’t dwell on it too much; instead, he raised his hand and summoned his mana, storing the corpses of the Three-tailed Green Fox and the Two-Horned Python entirely into his Storage Bag. Those were valuable goods, both the Green Fox’s fur and the python skin could be used to make talisman paper. He was destined to become an unparalleled Talisman Master, so he kept them for future use, certain that they would come in handy.
Moreover, having more Third-tier Demon Pills was always beneficial!
“Old Lu, let’s go!”
He gave his body a gentle shake, and together with Big Stupid Deer, used the Earth Escape Skill to leave the battlefield. Then, he hid within the Immortal City, quietly observing the changing situation, feeling there was still one more opportunity to seize.
…
A few days later.
Strangely, after displaying astonishing cultivation and slaughtering Xu Yuan along with a host of swordsmen from the Xu Family, the Seven-Colored Peacock did not take advantage of the situation to devour the entire Immortal White Dragon City, but instead returned to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.
Following the death of the Two-Horned Python and the Three-tailed Green Fox, two Third-tier Middle-stage Demon Kings, the siege of beasts on the city actually weakened.
As a result, a few Golden Core Cultivators within the city quickly mustered the cultivators to counterattack, and incredibly, they regained control of the entire Immortal White Dragon City after just two days. Even though the city was in shambles and the City Protection Array was wholly damaged, in the end, the city had been returned to the hands of the Human Clan.
The calm barely lasted less than a day.
In the evening, the cultivators in the city were abuzz with discussion.
When Ning Daoran walked out of his Cave Mansion with Big Stupid Deer, he saw a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators whom he was somewhat familiar with, chatting on the roadside.
“Senior Ning!”
The several men turned around and respectfully saluted.
“Fellow Daoists, did you just say… that something happened to Ancestor Xu?”
“Indeed.”
A bald cultivator frowned and said, “Senior Ning might not know yet, but the news has just returned to the Immortal White Dragon City; it seems that a Martial Immortal from the Zhenxian Tower of the Court paid a visit to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range and witnessed the fall of Ancestor Xu. It’s unbelievable that such an overbearing Nascent Soul Ancestor could just perish deep within the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range…”
“Is this truly the case?” Ning Daoran asked, looking astonished.
“It’s true.”
A slender-waisted female cultivator earnestly said, “Senior Ning, there are also Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Wang Family in the Immortal City who have returned from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, saying they witnessed the phenomena of a Nascent Soul Cultivator’s Nascent Soul being destroyed. That Ancestor Xu was besieged by multiple Demon Kings, and not only did he lose his life and Dao, but it’s said that his Nascent Soul didn’t even make it out.”
“I didn’t expect the Xu Family, at the peak of their power, to fall so suddenly…”
A young Foundation Establishment Cultivator displayed a look of grief for another’s misfortune: “Moreover, with the fall of the Xu Family, I’m afraid that the Immortal White Dragon City won’t be able to hold on either. The Demon Kings of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range have been scheming for years; how could they possibly let go of this juicy morsel?”
“Those who can leave should leave quickly.”
Ning Daoran said, “Regardless of whether the news of Ancestor Xu’s demise is true or not, the Immortal White Dragon City is no longer safe. It would be better to hide somewhere outside for a while, and return when things have calmed down.”
“Senior Ning speaks sensibly!”
The female cultivator bowed, “I shall take my leave now.”
Everyone cupped their fists together and scattered each to his own way to escape for their lives.
…
This time, the news of Ancestor Xu’s fall should be true, and all luck-based thoughts had dissipated.
Ning Daoran felt somewhat regretful; Old Dog Xu actually wasn’t slain by his own hands, which was somewhat of a pity. This event was neither significant nor trivial and could very well affect the clarity of his thought process.

However, since Ancestor Xu was dead, a beast tide from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range might descend on the Immortal White Dragon City at any moment!
Ning Daoran furrowed his brow, and a thought crossed his mind—it was time to leave the Immortal White Dragon City. But… before departing, he decided to visit Nolan Canghai and his wife, and if possible, bring them along when leaving the Immortal White Dragon City, having someone to watch each other’s back.
“Old Lu, let’s go!”
He leaped into the air, transformed into a streak of golden light, and headed south.
The Cave Mansion of Nolan Canghai was located in South City, a distance away from the central street. Coincidentally, South City was the area most severely damaged during the beast tide. Although there were shadows of City Patrol Cultivators flying overhead, it didn’t offer much of a sense of security. In the presence of the Demon Kings of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, these City Patrol Cultivators were hardly worth mentioning.
“Fellow Daoist Nalan!”
After passing a few streets, Ning Daoran saw Nolan Canghai holding hands with his wife, leaving their Cave Mansion in a hurry, apparently also preparing to leave.
“Senior Ning!”
Nolan Canghai exclaimed joyfully, “You haven’t left yet?”
“I’m about to leave; I’ve come to help you both.”
“That’s great, then let’s leave together!”
Chen Qian said with a light smile, “It’s also safer to be with Senior Ning.”
“No, wait…”
But Ning Daoran suddenly felt a jolt in his heart. He looked up sharply and saw that above them, clouds spontaneously formed in the sky, followed by a crushing spiritual pressure descending upon them like a waterfall!
This was… Nascent Soul Spirit Pressure!
“Chirp chirp~~~”
As the clouds dispersed, a massive figure loomed above them, spreading its wings wide, and those golden eyes stared intently at Ning Daoran, Nolan Canghai, and the others!
