Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

The remaining four cultivators at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment Stage, hidden within the forest, took the opportunity to unleash their own talisman treasures—a large seal, a small yellow-brown sword, a white silver spear, and a giant saber—all ruthlessly bombarding Chang Xuanzhen.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The four talisman treasures struck Chang Xuanzhen's body, directly shattering him, and also blasted a deep hole several meters deep into the ground where he stood.

The red-blooded demon-patterned fox suddenly appeared in front of one Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Cultivator and smashed his head with a claw.

A black-clothed Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Cultivator's expression suddenly changed drastically, and he retreated explosively, screaming in shock, "What's happening? Shouldn't his spirit beast be gravely injured since its master has died in battle? How is it unharmed?"

The red-blooded demon-patterned fox's figure flickered and in an instant appeared before the black-clothed cultivator, smashing his head with a claw.

The other two Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Cultivators each displayed an escape technique, flying towards the sky.

With a tap of its foot, the red-blooded demon-patterned fox made the ground tremble slightly and disappeared from its spot in an instant, smashing the head of a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Cultivator with a claw, and soon after also killing another.

"The master has died in battle and indeed the spirit beast should die, but I am not dead!"

A breeze blew, revealing Chang Xuanzhen's figure from among the countless leaves. He looked down indifferently at the bodies of the five Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Cultivators, taking a step forward.

Just then, the red-blooded demon-patterned fox suddenly looked up toward the northwest direction and let out a sharp cry.

Following the northwest direction, Chang Xuanzhen immediately spotted Zhao Yu's figure in the distance.

Chang Xuanzhen swept Zhao Yu with an indifferent glance and said, "Have you also come to ambush me? Forget it, no matter what you are here for, since you've come here, you are my enemy, go die!"

With a flash of fierce light in its eyes, the red-blooded demon-patterned fox tapped its foot and, like teleportation, pounced towards Zhao Yu.

"Truly, in this region, all the Foundation Establishment Cultivators are going mad for the chance to condense a Nascent Soul! After all, there's only one opportunity to condense a Nascent Soul! Those who gave up this chance are heading in the opposite direction!"

"This guy must be Chang Xuanzhen from Myriad Beasts Sect, commanding a terrifying monster that's a Third-Order demon beast!"

Zhao Yu inwardly shuddered and immediately used the Earth Escape Technique to burrow underground, disappearing from the sight of Chang Xuanzhen and another person.

The red-blooded demon-patterned fox instantly appeared at Zhao Yu's burrowing spot, slamming its claw down hard on the ground, creating a terrifyingly deep hole five meters deep.

After the strike failed to reach its target, the red-blooded demon-patterned fox's tail erected and vibrated, and its figure flickered. Leveraging its terrifying divine sense, it locked onto Zhao Yu, who had just emerged from underground a thousand meters away, and pounced directly toward him.

A cold glint flashed in Zhao Yu's eyes, and from the shadows behind him, dark energy surged as the White Ghost Emperor flew out from the darkness with a grin, clawing toward the red-blooded demon-patterned fox.

Bang!!

The White Ghost Emperor collided fiercely with the red-blooded demon-patterned fox, unleashing a terrifying shockwave, and the ground beneath them exploded into several large holes.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The White Ghost Emperor and the red-blooded demon-patterned fox fought furiously, with dark ghostly energy clashing against red monster qi, continuously erupting into terrifying shockwaves.

"A Third-Order spirit ghost! And it's a mid-grade one at that! The red-blooded demon-patterned fox can only delay it, not defeat it! I must kill that man!"

Chang Xuanzhen, as a True Disciple of the God Transformation Grand Sect of the Myriad Beasts Sect, was extremely knowledgeable and immediately recognized that the Red-Blooded Demonic Patterned Fox had begun to falter.

He swiftly slapped his Spirit Beast Bag, releasing a second-order superior Winged Crane with a wingspan of thirty feet, a second-order superior Demon Ape standing ten feet tall, a second-order superior Giant Tiger with a body length of thirty feet, and a second-order superior Winged Flying Serpent, all of which lunged at Zhao Yu.

These four second-order superior demon beasts were cultivated using Secret Techniques by Chang Xuanzhen, and each possessed a combat power slightly stronger than that of a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Cultivator.

A fierce light flashed in the eyes of the four second-order superior demon beasts, and they charged directly at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu likewise slapped his Spirit Beast Bag, and a flash of red light appeared, bringing the Red Emperor before him.

The Red Emperor, with a fierce countenance and flames underfoot, shook his body and instantly appeared in front of the Demon Ape. His claws shot out in an instant, sweeping across.

The head of the Giant Tiger, which was thirty feet long, soared into the sky, with a large spurt of fresh blood erupting from its neck and scattering on the ground.

The Red Emperor opened its gaping maw, and a red flame spear shot out, piercing the body of the Winged Flying Serpent in the sky within an instant; terrifying flames instantly devoured the serpent.

The Winged Flying Serpent turned into a huge fireball falling from the sky, struggling and twisting within the flames.

"A Third Order Red Flame Dragon Dog!! We must kill this creature!"

A chill rose in Chang Xuanzhen's heart as he frantically stimulated his mana and conjured a red Small Sword Talisman Treasure.

Zhao Yu used the Earth Escape Skill to dive into the ground, disappearing from in front of Chang Xuanzhen.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Earth Escape Skill!!"

A slight shock ran through Chang Xuanzhen's heart as he instantly used an escape technique to fly up into the sky. Though a True Disciple of a Great Sect unable to use the Wood Element Divine Ability to counter Zhao Yu's Earth Escape Skill, he nonetheless understood how to defend against it.

A pale golden figure burst from the earth and lunged directly at Chang Xuanzhen—it was Zhao Yu.

Chang Xuanzhen, one of the strongest Foundation Establishment Cultivators from Cangfeng Realm, possessed combat power at the Golden Core Level. If he were to join forces with Fang Linghai of the Corpsedemon Sect, even Zhao Yu would not be assured of victory.

"Fool! Go to your death!"

Chang Xuanzhen sneered, activating the red Small Sword Talisman Treasure in his hand. The red Small Sword Talisman Treasure immediately transformed into a thirty-foot-long red Spirit Sword, fiercely slashing at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu, at the same time, conjured a green Small Sword Talisman Treasure. It morphed into a thirty-foot long green Spirit Sword that soared into the sky, clashing with the red Spirit Sword.

Boom!!

When the two talisman treasures transformed into Spirit Swords collided, the green Spiritual Light only held for a moment before it began to shatter, and the thirty-foot-long green Spirit Sword also began to crumble and dissipate.

A green Small Sword Talisman also burned up completely, turning into ash.

Magical treasures, like talisman treasures, vary in quality. Chang Xuanzhen held a red Small Sword Talisman Treasure refined from a superior magical treasure, naturally far more powerful than the green Spirit Sword Talisman Treasure fashioned from a low-grade magical treasure.

However, after the red Spirit Sword shattered the green Spirit Sword, most of its power was also consumed, shrinking from thirty feet to just three feet in length as it thrust straight at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu stimulated the Seventh Level of the Golden Sha Beast God Body, his whole body enveloped in a pale golden light, and fiercely grasped at the red Spirit Sword with his claw.
