Chapter 481 386 "The Quintessence of the Six Dams and the Azure Clouds

Li Yuanjiao and Yuan Chengdun waited for a while, and a demonic wind came from the south, filling the valley with flying sand and rocks, and black demonic fog attacked from the horizon, with a muscular Great Han holding a white bone hammer at the very front.

Behind him stood several demon creatures, all of bizarre shapes and forms, a wolf and a deer, one on each side flanking the central Pig Demon as they landed on the ground. Taking advantage of the boost from the [Mysterious Pattern Bottle], Li Yuanjiao hid within the mysterious mist and began to form a spell.

"Boom!"

The demons joyfully landed, and suddenly the Foundation Establishment Great Formation was activated, with emerald light screens rising around, isolating the inside from the outside. The Foundation Establishment demons were still fine, but several Qi Cultivating little demons were scared out of their wits; those who fell, fell, and those who rode the wind, flew off, scattering in all directions.

However, since this Great Formation was of the Foundation Establishment level and was an item carried by Kong Tingyun, of the Xuan Yue direct lineage, the little demons immediately crashed into it in a daze. Yuan Chengdun took two short staffs off his back and flew out from within the mist without a word, raining down blows on them.

In his movements, a cyan-golden radiance flowed, clearly the [Fu Qingshan] being activated. He stomped down on the ground and with staffs in both hands, one staff strike crushed the wolf demon's body to a pulp, breaking it into several sections, while the other shattered the deer demon's head, leaving blood all over the ground.

'These are all Qi Cultivation sacrifices!' Li Yuanjiao thought anxiously as he saw Yuan Chengdun kill two in quick succession, and afraid that the killing spree would continue, he quickly approached through the mist, hand reaching out as the [Green Ruler Sword] leaped out of its sheath, its cyan-white sword light pressing forward aggressively.

Yuan Shoudun also rode the wind over, with golden light flowing on his two short staffs and fine golden lines appearing on his stern face, as he struck back and forth relentlessly.

The Pig Demon was shrouded in black fog, uttering words of shock and anger, trying to block with the bone hammer in hand, clashing with Li Yuanjiao's sword, creating a grating noise.

Yuan Chengdun paid the Pig Demon no mind, as his twin staffs struck impressively with an expert technique. Struggling against two opponents, the Pig Demon was in a sorry state. It opened its maw and spewed demonic fog in an attempt to block Yuan Chengdun's staffs.

"Such shallow sorcery, and you dare show it off to embarrass yourself!"

Yuan Chengdun laughed loudly, [Fu Qingshan] emitted golden light, easily dispersing the demonic fog, and his two strikes landed right on the Pig Demon's chest.

"Ah!"

Struck by the radiant golden blows, the Pig Demon vomited blood, unable to withstand the force, its body swelling rapidly, as it almost reverted to its true form. Li Yuanjiao was about to make a move, but he heard Yuan Chengdun shout:

"Taoist Fellow need not intervene! Chengdun has not seen such a bulky and stupid Pig Demon for a long time, it's rare to encounter a demon that doesn't flee on sight! Allow me to satisfy my urge to fight!"

Li Yuanjiao paused, then smiled and drifted back with the wind. Golden light flashed in the black fog, and the Pig Demon had already transformed into the size of a hall, its black fur like armor, and its two green eyes looking incredibly fearsome.

Yuan Chengdun was unconcerned, taking up his short staffs to strike. Although they seemed like mere golden toothpicks before the Pig Demon, he took no chances, resisting with all his might, shouting:

"It's the [Fu Qingshan]! What has this old pig done to offend your Yuan Family that you would travel a thousand miles to ambush me!"

The Pig Demon also noticed Li Yuanjiao but did not think of the Li Family at all; after all, if the Li Family intended to kill him, Li Tongya would have acted, and he would have already been divided into pieces on the ground—there would have been no need for such roundabout methods.

Yuan Chengdun simply smiled and said:

"How many man-eating demons has my short staff hammered to death? Why bother with offense or not!"

The Pig Demon, tough-skinned and resilient, could neither flee nor fight effectively, was being pursued and beaten by Yuan Chengdun, crying and howling miserably, vomiting blood ceaselessly.

'The [Fu Qingshan] is indeed just as its fame suggests.'

Yuan Chengdun's staff-wielding posture was quite odd, holding the butt ends as if he were wielding a pair of short hammers, making loud thuds. Li Yuanjiao watched his techniques closely, unable to help cautioning him:

"Taoist Fellow, hold back a little! Don't beat it to death!"

As he spoke, blue-grey spring water erupted from the ground at his feet, with black Serpent Jiaos coiling around and spreading out to capture the trembling Qi Cultivation demons within the formation.

'This staff technique is not simple…'

Li Yuanjiao observed carefully; Yuan Chengdun's staff technique must be an inheritance from the Yan Yang Temple Palace in the North, obtained by the Yuan Family—at least Fourth Grade, simple and imposing, making the Pig Demon call for mercy.

'The [Fu Qingshan] should be similar to the "Jade Court General," an Immortal Foundation that can enhance the body and is adept at spell battles…'

After watching for a while, the sound of running water could be heard, as the Jing Dragon King dragged back several Qi Cultivating demons.

"One at the Qi Cultivating Late Stage, two at Qi Cultivating Early Stage…"

The gap between Foundation Establishment and Qi Cultivation was as big as that between mortals and Immortal Cultivators. Li Yuanjiao glanced at them briefly and no longer paid attention. Instead, the Pig Demon bellowed incoherently:

"Behind me is the direct lineage of the Demon Cave, tasked with investigating here, do not make rash decisions… Ah!"

It took a few more blows and its eyes turned bloodshot, its aura surging. With its big mouth open, it spat out a bloody river mixed with dense bones, rushing towards Yuan Chengdun.

Yuan Chengdun was unfazed, flicked his fingers, and released a large, clear sheet of skin that, with a sweep and a pull, caused the blood river to crash to the ground—a dead snake flailing momentarily before falling silent.

Yuan Chengdun was thoroughly enjoying the fight, at one point employing several staff techniques, leaving the Pig Demon half-dead, slumped on the ground.

"It's been only the time of a stick of incense… Taoist Fellow's staff technique is indeed remarkable!"

Li Yuanjiao complimented, as Yuan Chengdun, with a slight sweat on his brow, appeared in great spirits and replied:

"My Immortal Foundation's spell is capable of dispersing demonic essence, preventing him from forming any spells. His physical body and magic artifact are far inferior to mine, and with the formation cutting off escape from the heavens and trapping within the earth, it's only natural for him to end up in such a plight."
