Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 46 – Oath to divide life and death

Li Muge landed on the ground, and behind him came a loud bang and the ringing of a bell. Su Yun and the Monkey Patriarch collided head-on, causing the wooden building beneath them to creak and groan.

Li Muge saw the white apes and flying dragons whizzing past him and couldn't help but wonder, "Is Su Yun also a powerful monster like this Monkey Patriarch, with a body as strong as a mountain? Is he a buffalo demon or a hippopotamus?"

He was puzzled, knowing that only creatures with innate divine power like buffaloes and hippos could contend with beasts like white apes.

Li Muge didn't have time to think about it anymore. He saw puppets dressed in tattered clothes flying towards him in the night sky.

Under the tattered clothes were skeletons that had become extremely grim under the control of their spirits.

The Land Candle Dragon was still moving forward, unaware of the danger. It was a giant creature that only had a mutually beneficial relationship with humans. It carried humans and they provided it with food.

The puppets posed no threat to it, and it was not responsible for the safety of the humans.

On its back were eighty small buildings, and the one Li Muge was in was the only one without the protection of light, becoming the breakthrough point for the puppets.

Li Muge ran swiftly on the platform of the small building, holding the sword that his spiritual power had transformed into. He displayed his learned swordsmanship, and with each sword thrust, a long sword shot out of his spiritual power and flew through the air. Each sword displayed the exquisite swordsmanship he had honed for years!

Swordsmanship was extremely difficult to cultivate. It required a sincere love for the sword, not only practicing with it every day, but also thinking about it constantly, and having the sword in hand when practicing, bathing, and even sleeping.

Day and night, with sincere thoughts, the spiritual power would turn the mark of the sword into a projection, reflected in the mind.

When this mark combined with one's own vitality, it would become a spiritual power with great power.

Li Muge was such a sword fanatic.

However, after he killed the puppets with his powerful swordsmanship and spiritual power, they quickly reassembled themselves and flew towards him again.

Although his swordsmanship was sharp, it was still somewhat difficult to deal with the puppets, which were strange creatures in the wilderness, unlike the lanterns.

Li Muge frowned. The sound of shattered glass and people screaming came from the carriage below, indicating that some puppets had broken the windows and entered the carriage!

At this moment, a shaking dragon roar came from the carriage, and the window suddenly exploded. A blood and energy dragon was entwined around a puppet and twisted it to pieces!

"It's that little guy with the dog-eared hat!" Li Muge felt a little relieved.

In the carriage, the young man transformed by Hua Hu was only as tall as an ordinary person's waist, but he moved like a dragon, appearing at the front and back of the carriage like the wind!

He moved up and down like a dragon, climbing onto the roof and walls of the carriage, moving like a flying dragon.

The energy and blood in his body erupted into thunderous roars. Whenever a puppet rushed in, before it could attack the terrified passengers, it was immediately killed by his dragon roar!

In another small wooden building, Hu Buping, Li Xiaofan, and Qing Qiuyue were even smaller in stature, but more agile. Their childish voices could be heard.

"Dragon Swimming in the Swamp!"

"Rolling Crocodile Dragon!"

"Dragon Battle in the Wilds!"

...Every time these three little guys made a move, they would shout with full energy, making the passengers in the carriage both worried about being captured by the Yan Shi puppets and finding it interesting.

The moves of the three little kids were full of wildness, and their strength was surprisingly great, smashing the invading Yan Shi puppets to pieces.

But after the Yan Shi puppets were shattered, they would reorganize themselves, and more and more of them would enter the carriage. Hu Buping and the others became increasingly overwhelmed. At this time, Li Muge's voice came from outside: "Hang on, once the Land Candle Dragon climbs over this mountain, we will leave the Old No-Man's Land and the Yan Shi puppets will automatically retreat! Hang on!"

The Land Candle Dragon was still climbing the mountain, and the mountain road was steep. The wooden building on its back also tilted.

Li Muge was extremely nervous. The Land Candle Dragon was about to reach the mountaintop, and the attacks of the Yan Shi puppets were becoming more and more fierce, leaving him no time to watch the battle between Su Yun and the Monkey Ancestor.

This period of time when the Land Candle Dragon was climbing up and down the mountain was extremely critical.

If the Monkey Ancestor killed Su Yun during this period of time, he could immediately rush over and kill Li Muge and the others, even slaughtering everyone on this Land Candle Dragon!

If Su Yun could survive under the Monkey Ancestor's attacks, and the Land Candle Dragon left the Old No-Man's Land, Li Muge could free up his hands to help Su Yun and surround and kill the Monkey Ancestor!

The victory or defeat, and even life and death, was decided during this time of climbing up and down the mountain!

Li Muge snorted, feeling that the vitality in his body was declining, and his consumption of spiritual power while fighting so many Yan Shi puppets was faster than he had expected.

Although he was a spiritual master in the Realm of Spirit Nurturing, with the techniques of the Realm of Spirit Nurturing, his vitality cultivation was not strong. Not only was he inferior to the Monkey Ancestor, but he was also inferior to Su Yun.

The Monkey Ancestor and Su Yun did not have the techniques of the Realm of Spirit Nurturing, but one of them was naturally gifted, with strong blood and energy like a monster, while the other had learned the unique spiritual power techniques from Mr. Wild Fox for six or seven years and had trained for three years to become unparalleled.

When Su Yun cultivated the "Hong Lu Transformation Qi Scripture" to the sixth level, his vitality cultivation surpassed that of most scholars in the same realm. He was not satisfied and went on to practice the "Immortal Ape Transformation Qi Scripture", making his body even stronger, with blood and energy as deep as a monster!

Su Yun was not as strong as the Monkey Ancestor in terms of strength, but that was only compared to the Monkey Ancestor.

If it were someone like Li Muge, a spiritual master, his strength would be almost negligible in front of the Monkey Ancestor, and he would not be able to compete with the Monkey Ancestor in terms of blood and energy.

Only monsters could deal with monsters.

Su Yun was such a monster!

On the tower, Su Yun kept retreating, his feet like sharp dragon claws, holding onto the roof of the wooden building and unloading the Monkey Ancestor's strength.

The Monkey Ancestor rotated his mixed iron rod, and there was a continuous sound of explosions. The big yellow bell above Su Yun's head kept shaking, emitting circles of light.

That was the halo emitted by the yellow bell when it unloaded the Monkey Ancestor's attack.

This yellow bell had a special function, which was to unload the strength of others' attacks on Su Yun and increase his endurance.

Su Yun himself did not know where this special function came from. He had just been able to use the power of spiritual power, without being systematically taught by official schools about the Realm of Spirit Nurturing and spiritual power techniques.

As the yellow bell rotated, dragons and white apes flew out one after another.

Controlling six white apes or six dragons at the same time was Su Yun's limit, but this time, Su Yun did not control six white apes or dragons all at once, but only controlled one dragon and one white ape.Because if the Jiaolong or Baiyuan formed by the blood and qi imprint were shattered by Yua Sanzushi, he would suffer a great loss of blood and qi, and his combat power would plummet. It was better to only control two of them, which could not only enhance his strength, but also improve his adaptability.

Each Baiyuan or Jiaolong represented different martial arts techniques. Different combinations of techniques would produce unexpected results.

Moreover, after each Baiyuan or Jiaolong technique was used, it would immediately be withdrawn into the Huangzhong and transformed into an imprint.

This was a technique that saved blood and qi.

After his battle with Yua Sanzushi, Su Yun's understanding of spiritual techniques also increased.

Bang!

Su Yun took another hit from Yua Sanzushi and was swept off the tower by the white-haired violent ape.

In mid-air, two puppet warriors suddenly flew towards him from the left and right, each with two white-boned arms protruding from under their tattered clothes!

The youth remained calm in the face of danger. The Huangzhong above his head spun, and a blood and qi Jiaolong flew out and fought in the air. It killed the two puppet warriors and returned to the clock, transforming into an imprint on the Huangzhong's dial.

Su Yun's feet sank, and he fell onto the body of the Zhulong crawling up the mountain at high speed.

The body of the land Zhulong was covered with dragon scales the size of a tabletop. As the Zhulong ran, the scales rubbed against each other, producing sparks.

From the touch beneath his feet, one could feel the terrifying power hidden in the muscles beneath these dragon scales!

Yua Sanzushi fell to the ground with a thud. Several puppet warriors rushed towards him, but were smashed to pieces by the white ape flying out of his mixed iron rod. The broken bones and torn clothes fell down the mountain, but gathered together in the wind.

Yua Sanzushi frowned and touched his chest. The wound left by the giant monster had reopened, and blood flowed out.

Su Yun shook his slightly numb arms and suddenly a Jiaolong swam out of the Huangzhong, coiled around the brass clock, and a white ape leaped up and crouched on the nose of the clock, staring at Yua Sanzushi.

"You're a formidable young man," Yua Sanzushi said, tensing his muscles and forcibly suppressing the wound. "You learn things very quickly, and I admire you. If you pass by Yuanjialing on ordinary days, I will invite you to come up the mountain and be the king of the roadblock with me."

Su Yun remained silent and activated the Honglu Shanchan Yangqi Technique. At this moment, he found that the Honglu Shanchan Yangqi Technique was still the fastest way to replenish his blood and qi. The Xianxuan Yangqi Technique was too fierce and lacked the same strong aftertaste as the Honglu Shanchan Yangqi Technique.

Yua Sanzushi was also working hard to activate the Xianxuan Yangqi Technique to restore his blood and qi. He said in a deep voice, "There are 37 households and 180 people in my Yuanjialing, of which 42 are young men. 14 of them died at your hands."

Su Yun squatted slightly with his legs, ready to exert force at any time, and said calmly, "They chased me and were killed by me. There is a rule in Tianshiyuan that no one is allowed to retaliate."

"You can retaliate and kill them," Yua Sanzushi said indifferently, "but as the head of a village, I must avenge my villagers. I cannot rest and must kill you tonight, because you are progressing too fast, and I am afraid that after my injury heals, I will no longer be your opponent!"

He analyzed his own thoughts and made it clear to Su Yun that he was determined to kill him in this battle!

Su Yun also made a judgment that he must kill Yua Sanzushi in this battle!

Because if he hesitated, he would die at Yua Sanzushi's hands!

"Meng Gu---"The long roar of the Candle Dragon on land echoed through the mountains as the giant dragon finally arrived at the mountaintop. Along with the shaking dragon roar, a long dragon roar also resounded in Su Yun's chest, resonating with the Candle Dragon!

He stumbled and for the first time, went on the offensive, attacking the Third Ancestor Ape!

Tonight, they vowed to live or die!
