Chapter 73: Crow Slaughter [Two in one, please subscribe and vote! ]
After Xiao Bai established his foundation, his breathing became stable, his waist injury healed quickly, and there was nothing wrong with his dantian.
Interestingly, his aura did not become stronger as he built his foundation.
Because he has learned the first-level resonance technique, his momentum is already at its maximum and he has a firm grasp on it.
Whether or not he builds the foundation affects his combat power, not his momentum.
With his upright figure draped in a dark green robe and his hands behind his back, he stood in the cave, as if blending in with the surrounding earth and rocks, the shadows on the cave wall, and the faint air current in the cave mixed with a faint body odor. His posture was natural, as if he had returned to nature after gaining insight into the truth.
This was the reason why he was not nervous at all when he heard that the crow that had attacked him was coming.
Du Ya was defeated by Mu Yun’s wife. He lost in terms of momentum alone. What is there to be afraid of?
Xiao Bai's natural aura was also one of the reasons why Mu Yun did not discover his foundation building at the first time.
After taking a weekend off with Xiao Bai, she also somewhat acquired this mentality of blending in with the world and not being surprised by fame or disgrace.
No matter what kind of danger she encountered, she was absolutely sure in her heart that Xiao Bai would take her away.
Just like the miracles created along the way, it was wild and unimaginable, but it was successful in the end.
Therefore, when she found that Du Ya was coming, she told him about her grudge with Du Ya without any hesitation.
"The Cambrian Foreign Affairs Chief. Two years ago, this position was supposed to be taken over by Du Ya. At that time, my strength increased dramatically, so I got this position as an exception."
"For the past two years, Du Ya has been disobeying me and has made many small moves in secret. It is said that he has been flirting with the Disha Sect. However, at the moment... I have not found any evidence, so I cannot report this to the Lord."
"So, he may not be so kind this time. It is possible that he will attack me to avenge his grudge."
Xiao Bai looked indifferent and said casually: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Telling you earlier might affect your judgment."
Mu Yun understood that when Xiao Bai said early, she meant right after escaping from Chaoge City. She said she was going to contact Du Ya to pick her up, but this was just a dangerous backup plan.
"If Du Ya really dared to attack me, I was prepared to deal with him alone. Now that you have established your foundation... If we work together, we may not be a match for him."
Xiao Bai touched her short hair which looked prickly, but it felt surprisingly soft.
"That's not necessary. Just take a good rest."
The flower demon lost his temper after being touched by Xiao Bai.
"I can't let you risk this alone."
Mu Yun sat cross-legged on a cattail mat, taking drugs silently, meditating, and trying his best to recover his magic power.
Xiao Bai smiled and said, "He may not turn against us. You just need to restrain your demonic energy throughout the process. I have my own plan."
Although Mu Yun believed in Xiao Bai, the current serious situation still made her feel uneasy.
"If a fight really breaks out, the scattered demonic energy will definitely cause a reaction from the nearby Dao Supervisory Army. Xuanyuan Ji will arrive soon, and the situation will no longer be under control."
Xiao Bai is not afraid of Xuanyuan Ji, but is afraid that Xuanyuan Ji will discover that Mu Yun is the demon he wants to capture.
There may be room for maneuver here.
As for Du Ya, Xiao Bai felt that he should be able to fight now.
The power of first-order resonance has a huge bonus to close-range physical skills.
This can be seen from the fact that he broke through Huang Biaobing's underground stone wall and the speed of flying the sword in the wind and snow.
You know, he was just refining his Qi at that time...
Now that he possesses the foundation-building spiritual pressure and the full-level Xiahou physical skills, with the bonus of the first-order resonance, he possesses close-range physical skills comparable to those of the Jindan realm.
What's more, he has learned the maximum level of the forbidden Red Lotus Technique, which is more powerful than the one Mu Yun used when he was injured, and is enough to kill an ordinary Jindan cultivator with one blow!
The only drawback is that casting Red Lotus requires a mixture of equal amounts of magic power and spiritual power, which makes the speed of using magic formulas and energy slower.
Especially Xiao Bai, who doesn't have a magic core, has to use the dark flower to simulate magic power, which makes it even slower.
Fortunately, Xiao Bai is strong enough, and as long as he is not killed instantly by the opponent, he has enough ways to kill his opponent in a war of attrition.
"Xuanyuan Ji in the middle stage of Yuanying is too strong for us, and too strong for Du Ya as well."
"But I know Xuanyuan Ji. He is worried that Yijianhu will cause trouble and he will not be able to stop it. So I will protect you. Xuanyuan Ji only dares to arrest people, but not kill them."
"If a real fight breaks out, Du Ya will definitely want to end the battle faster than I do. This is my chance."
After listening to Xiao Bai's analysis, Mu Yun felt relieved. He closed his eyes and concentrated on meditation.
…
After only a hundred breaths, the fox owner of the cave huddled in the corner, trembling.
Soon, dense swarms of black crows poured into the cave from various entrances in the mountain.
Gradually transformed into a man.
This is a very tall man wearing a black cloak, with blood-red eyes visible through the cloak.
Xiao Bai took a look and found that the man was a head taller than him.
The cloak on his head was about to touch the stone ceiling of the cave, filling the entire cave with dark demonic energy and spiritual pressure.
Xiao Bai thought, such an upright leader of the Demon Sect had his important position snatched away by a little girl like Mu Yun... Even if this happened to him, he would not be able to tolerate it and he strongly wanted to punish Mu Yun!
Mu Yun sat cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes, his face calm, showing no signs of nervousness or sadness or joy, and said, "I don't remember asking you for help."
The man in the black hood glanced around the cave, and then said slowly: "I underestimated you... You were surrounded and blocked by so many supervisory soldiers, and you didn't even ask me for help."
Mu Yun shook his head.
"You are not strong enough to save me. Right now, I have my own way to leave here. You can go now."
Du Ya glanced at Mu Yun lightly and saw at a glance her injuries, the traces of being struck by thunder, and the seeming absence of anything.
"The disciples in the sect are right. You are just a heartless child in a high position."
Xiao Bai's heart skipped a beat and he was extremely panicked.
You can say my wife is heartless, you can say she is childish... In any world, in any era, a woman is an adult at the age of nineteen!
Thinking of this, Xiao Bai stood there with confidence, not afraid of the divine beast at all.
Du Ya then turned around and was shocked by Xiao Bai's sudden rise in momentum...
Looking at his cultivation level, it’s only been one day since the last time we met, and this boy has already established his foundation!
Apart from practicing forbidden magic with Mu Yun, he couldn't think of any other possibility.
But dual cultivation did not help Mu Yun's injuries. Instead, it made her much weaker. She was so weak that he could crush her to death with one hand.
And Xiao Bai had only reached the foundation-building stage.
His dual talents are rare, but he is only at the foundation-building stage after all. Even a Jindan cultivator cannot be a match for him, a Jindan demon cultivator.
God-given opportunity!
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he only needed to make a final test, and after making sure it was safe, he could take action.
"Who are you……"
He asked Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai was calmer than Mu Yun, and he was very confident that he would not give Du Ya any face.
"Haven't we met before? The noisy crow that attacked the Dao Alliance's boat was you, right?"
Du Ya suddenly remembered that the last time he attacked this kid, he was only at the Qi Refining level, but he was calm and composed like a Nascent Soul expert.
Now it seems that Xiao Bai may have known that Mu Yun would come to save him, which is why he was able to remain calm.
This means that this pair of dogs had already been hooking up in Xueyan Sect.
He was even a little envious of Xiao Bai's strange ability to attract women to spend time with him anywhere and quickly level up through the two-day break.
But at the moment, Du Ya ignored Xiao Bai and turned around to continue talking to Mu Yun: "The Red Lotus you cast was so weak that I thought it was a new disciple of the Demon Sect practicing."
"Although the Heavenly Demon Sect has not issued an order to prohibit its demons from taking a break with humans, do you think the Lord will tolerate someone like you whose strength is greatly reduced after taking a break?"
"You look like a love-struck nympho."
Du Ya's words became more and more serious.
Mu Yun stood still like a mountain and said coldly:
"Don't worry about this minor injury. I will recover after returning to the Heavenly Demon Sect."
"After returning to the Demon Sect?"
Du Ya couldn't help laughing and sneered:
"Even if the Lord comes in person, it will take two hours to get here... Do you think you can return to the Heavenly Demon Sect without my help?"
Mu Yun seemed to see some room for maneuver, but it was more likely a test from the other party, so he compromised and said, "After saying so much, you still haven't rescued me. I guess you still have some conditions to save me?"
"nature."
Du Ya nodded.
"I can save you, but after you return to the sect, you must tell the master that your cultivation has plummeted and you are no longer suitable for foreign affairs. You should give me the position of the chief foreign affairs officer of the Cambrian Nation... As long as you agree to this condition, I will save you two."
Mu Yun glanced at Xiao Bai and readily agreed.
"Can."
Du Ya suddenly fell silent.
Two years ago, Mu Yun practiced hard for a long time to compete for the position of Chief Foreign Affairs of Cambrian Country, and was elected by exception after defeating all the candidates - at that time, he was still on a mission in Jinglei Country and missed the selection.
The reason why Mu Yun is obsessed with this position is that she wants to kill with her own hands the culprit who directly or indirectly caused her mother's tragic death.
As well as being able to continue her role as an insider in the Xueyan Sect, farming seemed to help her calm down.
She had worked so hard to get this important position, but now she just gave it up?
From this, he came to two conclusions:
First, Mu Yun has not contacted the Lord yet.
Second, her injuries were more serious than they looked, and taking a day off from humans was to cover up her evil spirit rather than to restore her fighting power. It was truly a helpless move.
In other words, Mu Yun now could not be his opponent! With this thought in mind, Du Ya showed his true colors and lifted his cloak, revealing an ugly face covered in crow hair.
"But, as long as you die, this position will be mine. Why should I take the risk of carrying two burdens with me?"
Mu Yun had expected this, and hinted to Xiao Bai to prepare for a sneak attack, and continued to ask: "Then what are you doing here?"
Du Ya raised his sharp claws and pointed them at Mu Yun.
The ugly face covered with black feathers grinned, and the smile reached the ears.
"I won't take you on the road, but I will send you on your way."
Sudden--
Bang! A gunshot hit his back!
Du Ya's body tilted violently, flew sideways over Mu Yun's head, and hit the wall of the cave.
Only then did Xiao Bai draw out the black sword.
The power of this shot was close to that of a golden elixir. Although it could not break the defense of the golden elixir cultivator, the impact force was so great that it blasted Du Ya into the wall, causing him to spit blood in embarrassment.
Xiao Bai likes to launch sneak attacks, but most of them are feints and signs of weakness.
After all, who among the truly powerful would launch a sneak attack?
Du Ya thought so too.
He wiped the blood and stood up, unharmed, and looked carefully at the ammunition that had exploded in all directions.
"Soul-destroying gunpowder, sword handle as a gun... the designer had good intentions. It's a pity that you shouldn't use it against a Jindan-level demon cultivator."
Before he finished speaking, a giant crow rushed out of the cave wall behind Xiao Bai——
A claw stabbed towards Xiao Bai's dantian!
When it comes to sneak attacks, he is even more despicable than Xiao Bai.
Even if he has the advantage, he still likes to launch sneak attacks.
Xiao Bai knew this when the giant crow attacked Zhang Yufeng.
Therefore, he was somewhat wary.
The giant crow's sharp claws only penetrated half an inch into Xiao Bai's waist before being bounced away by his instantly vibrating muscles.
The force of the sharp claws' stabbing passed through Xiao Bai's body like ripples, creating a violent shock wave in the air.
At the same time, the force was transmitted into Xiao Bai's feet, shattering the rocks of the entire cave.
The cave rumbled and shook, and mud fell like rain.
This is the power of resonance!
First-order resonance refers to resonance with inanimate objects.
To be precise, it is a kind of physical resonance, scientifically known as mechanical resonance, which also includes the physical part of the spirit.
Just because it cannot exert force on spirits, spiritual energy or Dantian from a distance does not mean that it cannot launch physical attacks.
The Crowman hadn't reacted yet, still wondering what kind of strange power this was...
Xiao Bai turned around in an instant and grabbed the giant crow's claw with one hand.
"shock!"
However, Xiao Bai was unable to destroy the Jindan realm beast core with the power of resonance alone.
Even physical damage with bare hands will be repelled by the spiritual pressure on the beast core.
But this shock was enough to destroy the giant crow's body except for the beast core.
Just like when he was in Huang Biaobing's underground stone house, he shattered all the stone walls except the seal with one palm.
This is a victory for physics!
The giant crow's eyes froze and its body shook violently.
All his internal organs and even his skeleton were shattered.
Suddenly, the long beak drooped down, and it instinctively let out a sharp scream, releasing the golden elixir spiritual pressure.
The crow's sharp cry was directly directed at Xiao Bai.
Fortunately, this was a wave of spiritual pressure attack, and Xiao Bai took drugs and used his dantian to resist it.
Ten soul-returning pills piled up on the outer wall of the Dantian, forming a thick spiritual pressure consumption layer to protect the outer wall of the Dantian from being shattered.
After the giant crow finished screaming, Xiao Bai's protective layer was also consumed.
With just one bite, ten soul-restoring pills were gone.
You know, Xiao Bai, Huang Biaobing and Hei Hu fought for so long, but only wasted three Soul-Restoring Pills.
——The power of the golden elixir is so terrifying! Fortunately, the giant crow has stopped here.
The already shattered bones and flesh were almost collapsed by such a whistling force.
The screaming could not continue.
Du Ya was also frightened and didn't dare to get close easily.
He quickly controlled dozens of black crows and delivered medicine to the giant crow to help it recover its body.
However, Xiao Bai's sword technique was extremely fast.
Swish, swish, swish, all the black crows that delivered medicine were killed.
Du Ya couldn't understand this scene and was deeply shocked.
He didn't understand why Xiao Bai's body could automatically replenish itself when attacked, and he could actually withstand the spiritual pressure of the Golden Core Realm! This man was not right no matter how he looked at him...
He suddenly sneered at Muyun.
"I was wondering how you could be so calm and composed at such a young age. It turns out that it's the man who gave you the confidence. Although you have many strange and clever tricks, they are only the foundation after all."
Having said that, he was really a little worried that Xiao Bai would suddenly come up with some bizarre trick.
Then, he lifted his cloak, and his body covered with black feathers turned into a sky full of crows, filling the entire cave.
Make a shrill scream.
At the moment, this is the safest tactic: do not actively approach Xiao Bai, and consume Xiao Bai's pills throughout the process.
At the same time, the huge number of black crows is enough to replenish the giant crow's medicine and restore its body.
The giant crow, which had regained its mortal form, suddenly moved away from Xiao Bai and turned to attack Mu Yun in the distance!
However, what Xiao Bai feared most was not consumption.
But was killed instantly...
The moment he had been waiting for finally arrived.
The giant crow left him and attacked Mu Yun, but the black crows in the sky were not enough to stop him from making a gesture!
Xiao Bai was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He clasped his palms together, absorbed the magic power of the Dark Flower, and mixed it with his own spiritual power.
Pinching out a lotus-like flame from the fingertips——
"red lotus."
The strange lotus-like spiritual pressure enveloped the entire cave, instantly solidifying Du Ya's body, and a blood mist exploded at his waist, blooming into a brilliant blood lotus.
Du Ya's red eyes froze and he covered his lower abdomen.
A crack appeared in his magic core...
"you--"
In astonishment, Du Ya suddenly realized that the weak red lotus that Mu Yun had just displayed was teaching Xiao Bai.
However, the red lotus cast by Xiao Bai was even more powerful than the one cast by Mu Yun, and even he could not resist it!
Without time to be shocked, Du Ya quickly swallowed medicine, trying to repair the cracks outside the magic core.
Unfortunately, it's too late...
Xiao Bai came quickly, bent over, stabbed his hand into his lower abdomen, and tightly grasped the magic core.
While Du Ya's magic core was unable to rebound the spiritual pressure due to cracks, Xiao Bai shook his palm.
Crush the nuclear wall with bare hands!
The frozen red eyes slowly extinguished...
The Jindan realm's magic core didn't even have time to self-destruct before it was shattered by the force of resonance.
The spreading magic power was like a whistling gale, blowing harshly on Xiao Bai's handsome face.
"My Flower Demon wife has already told me that your strength is not enough to save us..."
Xiao Bai sighed helplessly.
Immediately, before Du Ya died, he reminded him tactfully:
"But you can die."
