Young Noble Be Monster Slaying

Chapter 316: The Descent of the Heavenly God

"What is this?" Jiang Yuebai asked.

"That mysterious beast egg I stumbled upon some time ago—this little fellow hatched from it," Chu Liang replied with a smile. "Don't be deceived by its size; it's a master burrower."

As he spoke, he gently placed the tiny golden butterfly on the white porcelain wall beside him, rousing it from its slumber.

Though still a bit groggy, the butterfly began to nibble.

Crunch, crunch...

Faint gnawing sounds filled the air as the seemingly indestructible wall, impervious even to the Heavenly Sword Seal, was gradually worn down by the diligent little butterfly.

Its bites were small but incredibly fast. Before long, the butterfly had burrowed itself into the wall, entirely absorbed in its task.

Jiang Yuebai watched with a thoughtful expression as the little golden butterfly worked its magic.

Soon, it chewed through a hole. Through the palm-sized opening, they could see a similar space on the other side. Inside, a girl in a white dress lay softly on the ground, seemingly unconscious.

"There’s more than one hidden space here?" Chu Liang mused. He then instructed the butterfly, "Chew upwards."

The little golden butterfly obediently changed direction, gnawing upwards. Despite the enchanted wall being one of the hardest substances in the world, the butterfly navigated through it as if it were swimming in water.

After a while, a sliver of light suddenly pierced through from above.

"What are you doing?!"

A shocked and angry voice rang out, and the black-robed old man reappeared instantly, his face contorted with ferocity and rage.

He never expected these two young people to be able to break through the ten-thousand-year-old unbreakable bottle!

"Stop immediately! If you don't want to make a wish, I'll let you out!" he roared repeatedly. "If you don't stop, I'll make you suffer eternally!"

Chu Liang's eyes narrowed and his mouth twitched as he adopted the familiar expression of Di Nufeng.

The message was clear: If you dare, come at us.

At that moment, the black-robed old man's vulnerability was exposed. Despite his mystical powers making it difficult for him to be punished, he couldn't harm anyone who had yet to make a wish.

"Arggggg! Come and kill them for me!" the black-robed old man roared.

The light above the bottle's mouth intensified, as if a lid had been lifted, revealing bright daylight. Numerous vengeful spirits peered down from above.

These were all entities that had made wishes to him in the past.

"I will give you ten times your strength, kill the two of them for me!" the black-robed old man shouted loudly.

The vengeful spirits obeyed his command and charged down fiercely!

If the opponents were ghosts, Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai would never feel afraid. As they both wielded their swords, sword qi erupted forth with powerful intensity!

Swoosh—

The two ghosts at the forefront were obliterated instantly, leaving not even a trace of ash.

However, the sheer number of vengeful spirits was overwhelming, and in the blink of an eye, they surrounded the two of them.

Jiang Yuebai remained unfazed. With the execution of her hand seals, her entire body transformed into a pool of thunder! As she executed the exorcizing thunder technique, the vengeful spirits instantly evaporated!

"Five-Lightning Heart of the Sky!" she invoked.

Meanwhile, Chu Liang was not far behind. He summoned the Ghost-Slaying Sword of Divine Light and swung it rapidly, creating an impenetrable defense!

"Orb Lamp Sword Technique!" he called out.

The surrounding vengeful spirits were swiftly cleared away.

"If I hadn't lost the two drops of the shaman god's blood essence, you would have never had the chance to behave so rebelliously," the black-robed old man raged. "Fine! Even if I have to use the last bit of my blood essence's original power, I will make sure you die!"

With a roar, he waved his hand, and the white porcelain walls on both sides disappeared instantly.

It turned out that this bottle contained three hidden spaces. Besides the ones where Chu Liang and the girl in the white dress were, the third space was filled with black-gold blood!

When the wall disappeared, the pool of blood immediately flowed out, emanating a dangerous aura with divine smoke rising from it.

"Let's go!"

Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai moved in perfect harmony.

As the blood pool surged out, Jiang Yuebai quickly executed the art of ice and conjured several ice walls. Although they melted almost instantly, they managed to hold back the blood pool for a brief moment.

Taking advantage of the moment, Chu Liang used Dimension Compression to instantly appear beside the girl in the white dress, lifting her up in one swift motion.

Immediately, the two of them flew upwards together!

"Do you think you can escape?" the black-robed old man sneered as he merged into the blood pool, becoming one with it in an instant.

The blood pool roared and churned, coalescing into a giant human form. The vengeful spirit now had a corporeal body!

Whoosh—

Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai traversed the bottle's mouth, and with a flash of light, they suddenly appeared outside the collapsed wall.

The scene behind the wall quickly shifted, with light and shadows twisting into the image of a large white porcelain bottle.

Ling Ao and Chen Luo, who were waiting, were both taken aback. When Chen Luo saw the person Chu Liang was carrying, he immediately cried out, "Mu Xi!"

"She's fine, run quickly!" Chu Liang shouted as he fled without pausing. "If we don't hurry, we'll be in big trouble!"

Ling Ao reacted swiftly, immediately grabbing Chen Luo and following at high speed.

As Ling Ao and Chu Liang flew swiftly in coordinated movements, they created a stable space for Chen Luo and Mu Xi, allowing them to maintain equilibrium despite their motion.

While this was happening, Chen Luo just kept shouting, "Mu Xi, are you alright?"

Following closely behind Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai, the giant burst forth from the pool of blood, standing seven to eight meters tall and radiating an overwhelming murderous aura!

According to his statement, this power came from a single drop of the shaman god's blood essence.

Even after countless years, a drop of blood essence from a powerful ninth-realm expert, once capable of shaking the world, still retained its terrifying power!

The giant transformed into a cloud of blood, enveloping everyone, leaving them with no choice but to flee for their lives!

But the abandoned Shen Residence was within the vengeful spirit's domain, and it had boundaries. How could they keep running?

Seeing that they were nearing the courtyard wall with no way out, Jiang Yuebai turned around, shouted clearly, and unleashed the Heaven-Raising Sword!

An overwhelming wave of sword qi blasted out as the immortal art was executed, shaking the heavens with its power. However, when the sword struck the blood cloud, it was instantly swallowed, not even causing a single ripple!

"This drop of the shaman god's blood essence is unbeatable unless we eliminate the vengeful spirit!" Chu Liang's thoughts raced, and a bright idea flashed in his mind. He shouted loudly, "We have to break the porcelain bottle that holds him!"

As he spoke, he unleashed a Heavenly Sword Seal, blasting it towards the distant porcelain bottle!

But the blood cloud swallowed it midway!

Driven by anger and fear, the black-robed old man knew he had to kill these intruders because they had discovered his weakness!

After being bitten through by the little golden butterfly, the porcelain bottle's engraved enchantment was no longer intact. It was now breakable. Once the porcelain bottle was shattered, his soul would have nowhere to reside and would dissipate into the heavens and earth.

It's all this fellow's fault! The black-robed old man roared inwardly.

The black-robed old man roared, and the blood cloud surged like a waterfall, covering the sky and engulfing everyone!

"Die!"

The group was cornered, with no way out in sight.

But at that moment, the surging cloud of blood suddenly stopped moving!

Boom—

A dull thud echoed from behind the cloud of blood.

A towering figure emerged behind them, radiating divine might as if a god had descended!

Metallic Body of the fifth-realm!

Form of the Heavens and the Earth!

Three-Headed and Six-Armed Form!

Each of the six arms held a Heavenly Sword!

Instantly, the disciples from the Mount Shu Sect recognized the techniques. It was a combination of the Hundred Swords Seal and the Heavenly Sword Seal! First, the Hundred Swords Seal multiplied into six swords, and then each sword executed the Heavenly Sword Seal!

Executing these sword techniques in this combined manner was a hundred times more difficult than performing them individually.

As Chu Liang watched this scene, he realized that Senior Brother Xu's strength had elevated to another level since their last fight.

Indeed! The god-like figure that appeared out of nowhere was Xu Ziyang!

...

Previously, the woman in yellow had attempted to lure him into the porcelain bottle, but Xu Ziyang had already sensed that something was wrong...

"You said you gained more power because you were near the bottle containing the evil spirit," he said with a gaze as sharp as lightning. "But as we've continued along this path, the vengeful spirits have been getting stronger. This means we're heading straight towards the evil spirit, aren't we?

"If I'm not mistaken, this entrance doesn't lead outside but to the space where the evil spirit resides."

"..."

And so, Xu Ziyang had been watching from outside all along, waiting for this moment to step forward!

The black-robed old man, being in the form of this vast blood cloud, was about to devour Chu Liang and the others. It did not expect such a powerful force to emerge from behind.

Time seemed to come to a standstill.

Xu Ziyang was showcasing his full power, wielding six Heavenly Swords and combining their strength into a single strike!

Destroying the world!

Boom!

Although the crucial part was done when the little golden butterfly broke the enchanted pattern on the porcelain bottle, the remaining parts of the bottle were made of a material that others could not easily break.

However, Xu Ziyang's strike was so powerful that nothing could withstand it!

"Ahhhhhhh—" The black-robed old man let out a cry, unwilling to accept defeat.

He had existed for tens of thousands of years, facing countless Eminent Ones. And now, his existence was dissipated by a group of youngsters? Unbelievable!

How could he accept this without feeling any grudge?

Boom!

The giant shattered the porcelain bottle, causing the blood cloud in the air to fragment and fall as a cascade of blood. Everyone dodged, not daring to let even a single drop touch them.

The blood rained down on the ground, making a sizzling sound as if it were burning. Instead of disappearing, it re-coalesced into a fist-sized globule of blood essence.

The entire illusion cast over the abandoned Shen Family Residence collapsed as well.

Boom—

The violent sound caused the earth to shake and the mountains to tremble!

The old night watchman outside the abandoned garden stumbled in fright, nearly falling to the ground. He turned back in terror as he cursed, "Fuck! What the heck is going on?"
