Chapter 775
The Seven Sublime Truth Cultivators and the Holy Bird
Cultivator Le raised the ancient lantern into the air and opened her mouth, spitting out a wisp of white Nascent Flame to ignite the ancient lantern.
The woman formed an incantation gesture with her hands and slowly chanted an incantation. A white lotus blossomed beneath her like a fairy from the heavens.
The incantation was filled with an indescribably savage aura. The copper lantern suddenly trembled and illusions appeared one after another. Nine identical ancient lanterns appeared in a flash.
After circling for a while, they formed a triangular formation and slowly rotated in the air.
Cultivator Le flicked her finger, and nine incantation seals of different colors struck the ancient lantern. Brilliant azure light erupted, and nine lantern flames flew out from the lantern at the same time. They condensed at the center of the triangular formation and transformed into a head-sized ball of azure flames.
With a puff, the woman spat out a mouthful of blood essence onto the azure flame, causing it to expand to over a foot in size.
A short moment later, a clear cry sounded out as a foot-large azure bird emerged from the flames.
This bird had a light body and long azure feathers. Its pair of fiery red eyes were sparkling like gems. It was a gorgeous azure peacock.
It looked around with a haughty expression and saw the woman surnamed Le down below. It tilted its head slightly and spoke in a barbaric language from ancient times.
Cultivator Le respectfully saluted the bird three times and began to converse with it.
When the shriveled old man saw this, his face revealed a trace of seriousness.
Cultivator Le suddenly stopped speaking and flipped her hand over to produce a pink bead. It was unknown what it was.
When the azure peacock saw the bead, it revealed a joyful expression. It opened its beak and spat out a cloud of azure light, sucking the bead into its mouth.
With a crackle, a halo of light rose from the azure bird’s body, following which azure flames erupted from its body, transforming it into a massive fire bird.
With a sharp cry, the bird spread its wings and soared into the sky. The fire-attribute spiritual Qi within a five kilometer radius suddenly became unstable. All of the cultivators and spell warriors that were using fire-attribute attacks simultaneously discovered that the power of their skills had been reduced by half. They couldn’t help but be shocked!
Countless wisps of fire-attribute spiritual Qi flowed into the azure bird’s body, causing its body to swell and the azure flames on its body to become even more dazzling.
All of the cultivators within a five kilometer radius stopped in their tracks and looked at the azure fire bird with shock. Because of the sudden increase in temperature, even with the protection of various magic tools, it was as if they were placed next to a furnace, causing everyone to feel aghast.
However, when they saw the peacock in the azure fire, the spell warriors were ecstatic.
“It’s the holy bird! Sage Le has summoned the holy bird.”
“We will win this battle!”
A few spell warriors shouted loudly before launching frenzied attacks at their opponents, appearing to be exceptionally excited.
When the shriveled old man saw the bird’s divine might, a rare smile appeared on his face.
The black-robed woman from the Yin Sifting Sect looked at the green peacock in the flames with a strange expression and suddenly said, “To be able to control the Heaven and Earth Fire Spirit, this Holy Bird must be at least at the Deity Transformation Stage. It’s no wonder that you regard this as your last resort. However, although this Holy Bird’s cultivation is high, the spiritual power in its body was only at the early-Nascent Soul Stage when it first came out. Although it has absorbed so much fire spiritual Qi, it has only barely advanced to the late-Nascent Soul Stage. This should be a clone of the main body, right? Otherwise, how could you have lost so badly in the battle against the Soaring Tribes?”
The old man glanced at the black-robed woman and calmly said, “Lady Lu is truly extraordinary. You were able to see it with a single glance! The Holy Bird truly isn’t its true form, but even so, it is no small matter. Ordinary late-Nascent Soul cultivators are absolutely no match for it.”
The black-robed woman nodded and said with a trace of envy, “That’s right. Only Deity Transformation Stage cultivators can use the spiritual power of heaven and earth. With this alone, we’ll be in an invincible position.”
When the old man saw this, he chuckled and said nothing else.
As for the seven old men who flew out with ancient treasures, they had just used several ancient treasures to kill a few spell warriors when they saw the huge bird in the azure fire. Their faces revealed shock.
The grey-robed old man in the leading expression greatly changed and he said, “Not good. This demonic beast appears to be quite powerful. Ordinary cultivators are definitely no match for it. We must stop it.”
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s quickly use the Sublime Truth Seven Treasures to exterminate this demon. This demon bird clearly doesn’t belong to this world. We can’t allow it to injure us.” When the other old man heard this, he spoke with a fiery tone. Soon after, he turned into a streak of yellow light and shot towards the azure sun.
When the others saw this, they immediately followed after him. The grey-robed old man in the lead revealed a trace of hesitation before letting out a sigh and flying over as a streak of golden light.
When the seven of them arrived near the azure sun, the Moulan Holy Bird seemed to have finished absorbing the fire spirit Qi. It was already over 200 feet in length, and it lowered its head to discover the seven hostile cultivators.
A fierce light flashed from his eyes as he flapped his wings, sending fist-sized azure fireballs hurtling toward the seven cultivators.
Before the seven old men could attack, a gust of hot wind blew past them, and their bodies immediately became incomparably hot.
A long-browed old man slapped his storage pouch and raised his hand, summoning a translucent ice net to meet the oncoming fireballs.
The net was quite wondrous. Brilliant white light erupted and enveloped all of the fireballs.
When the long-browed old man saw this, a trace of a smile appeared on his face, but his face immediately paled.
The fireballs in the ice net exploded, and the ice net was melted away by the azure flames. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared, and the azure flames that had escaped turned into a pillar of fire that hurtled toward the group.
“Go!” The old man quickly took out his ancient treasure and summoned a white mirror.
After circling around in the air, white light swept out from the mirror and turned into a white barrier, blocking the azure flames and preventing them from descending.
When the others saw the long-browed old man’s treasure dissolve, they couldn’t help but gasp. They knew that this azure flame was truly extraordinary, and no one dared to use ordinary magic treasures.
“Quickly use the Devil Restraining Grand Formation to trap this demon bird!” The old man shouted.
When the other old men heard this, they hurriedly took out their ancient treasures.
Red ruler, yellow halberd, command medallion, small cauldron, jade fan, and scepter. The six treasures rose into the air and shot towards the giant bird’s body. Spiritual light let out a long cry before transforming into rainbow light along with the ancient mirror. Not only did it contain the azure flames, but it also formed a seven-colored barrier that surrounded the giant bird.
When the azure bird saw this, the fury in its eyes intensified. It opened its mouth and abruptly pecked downward.
A huge cone-shaped azure streak of light disappeared in a flash. As for the tall old man down below, he suddenly felt his command medallion tremble. With a loud bang, the command medallion was knocked back.
The old man was scared out of his wits and hastily struck the command medallion with several incantation seals in an attempt to restrain its momentum. However, the command medallion only paused for a moment before flying toward him. Just as the command medallion was about to smash into the old man, a figure suddenly flashed and two arms pressed onto the old man’s shoulders. At the same time, a huge amount of spiritual power flowed into his body.
“Quickly cast the spell. I’ll lend you a hand.” A cold voice sounded from the grey-robed old man.
When the tall old man heard this, he immediately became spirited and struck out four or five more incantation seals in a single breath. The command medallion finally stopped at a distance of forty to fifty feet and regained control.
The two of them couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.contemporary romance
After witnessing this scene, the other old men were inwardly alarmed and didn’t dare to be careless. They hastily unleashed the might of their ancient treasures to the limit. All types of light intertwined, joining together to block several of the azure light cones released by the huge bird.
When the woman surnamed Le saw this, she turned to look at the ancient lantern behind her and hesitated for a moment before deciding not to help.
Before the lantern oil ran out, she had to protect it and prevent it from being extinguished by a sneak attack. Otherwise, things would be very bad.
A trace of surprise appeared on the shriveled old man’s face when he saw that the huge bird was being held back by these old men. However, he soon recovered.
He wasn’t in a hurry because the holy bird that the Moulan Tribe had worshipped for tens of thousands of years clearly had the upper hand. Although the treasures controlled by these seven old men were exceptionally powerful, they were still no match for the holy bird.
It would definitely be able to kill these seven cultivators before the lantern oil ran out. These seven should be the final trump cards of the Heavenly South Region.
Thinking of this, this Divine Sage Zhu could not help but look at the cultivator camp opposite him.
Long Han was standing in front of over a thousand spell warriors with an extremely dark expression.
Long Han’s expression remained unchanged as he muttered to himself, “I didn’t expect the Moulans to be able to summon such a demon bird. We’re in big trouble now.”
Long Han’s voice suddenly became louder, and he coldly said, “Quickly, release those Spirit Sculpture Beasts as well. Let’s take advantage of the fact that the Sublime Truth Seven Cultivators are still entangled with that demon bird. Let them unleash some of their abilities.”
Following this command, several tens of shiny black beast sculptures were pushed to the front of the formation. Several cultivators then took out a talisman and slapped it on the statue.
Green light flashed and the talisman strangely disappeared into the statue. The cultivators immediately sat down cross-legged on the ground and remained motionless.
A short moment later, black light flashed from the beast sculptures’ eyes, following which a cold blue light shot forth. They raised their claws and legs, and all of them came to life.
Then, without any instructions, they flew out from their original spots and pounced on the spell warriors on the battlefield.
As for the cultivators who had installed the talismans, they were still sitting cross-legged with their heads lowered as if they were half asleep.
When the shriveled old man saw this from afar, a mocking expression appeared on his face.
He turned his head and politely said to the black-robed woman, “At this point, it’s time to give the other party a fatal blow. Lady Lu, release your sect’s Copper-armored Corpses. This time, it will be enough to determine victory.” After the old man said this, he wore a self-conceited expression.
The black-robed woman’s eyes flickered and she calmly said, “Brother Zhu, don’t be in such a hurry. Let’s wait a moment longer. The majority of our sect’s Copper-armored Corpses are only equivalent to Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators. Only when the Heavenly South cultivators’ magic power is nearly exhausted will we be able to strike.”
“Well… alright! So long as your sect doesn’t change your mind, it doesn’t matter if we wait a bit longer.” The shriveled old man frowned and hesitated for a moment before nodding his head in agreement.
The other party’s words were not without reason.
