Accompanied by the clear cry of a phoenix, a fiery phoenix descended from the sky into the Taoist temple. The moment it landed, the fiery feathers on its body shot out like arrows towards Snake, Chicken, and Horse.
The three of them turned pale with fright. Each of them blocked the attack, but they were forced to retreat at the same time. When they looked up again, the flames split open and the figure of a young man appeared.
The young man was at most seventeen or eighteen years old. His clean face still had a hint of childishness, but his temperament was calm beyond his age. Even though his eyes were burning with anger, almost spitting fire, his figure was still like an abyss and a mountain. He said, "I've found you, let's see where you can run to now!"
"It's him! He's chasing us! "Chicken Crown said in panic. Needless to say, this young man was the one who had been chasing them.
"Coward!" Horse Face pulled Chicken Crown's head, indicating for him to remain calm. At the same time, he cupped his hands and said, "Little brother, it's better to squash enmity than keep it alive. I wonder what enmity we, the twelve astrological signs, have with you. Tell us clearly. If we brothers are wrong, we will apologize to you."
The young man said straightforwardly, "No enmity."
Horse Face said, "No enmity, yet you still force us to kill you!"
The young man shook his sleeves and said sternly, "Wu Village, the thirty-seven villagers had no enmity with you, yet you still ended the lives of the entire village!"
"They are just a few mortals. You want to offend the twelve astrological signs for them?"
"They are just a few evil people. I will eradicate the twelve astrological signs in one go!"
Horse Face wanted to say more, but Snake Man cut him off with his tongue, "Old Horse, don't waste your energy. This kind of greenhorn who specializes in fighting for justice, it's useless to talk to him. We can only beat him until he hurts so much that he doesn't dare to meddle in other people's business. Little brat, last time, it was because you set up the array in advance and took advantage of the right time and place. In addition, grandfathers saw that you were young and careless, so you were lucky enough to get the upper hand. Now, I will let you see grandfathers' true abilities."
"You were careless just now?" The youth sneered, and with a flip of his wrist, a folding fan appeared. "Me too. I didn't think that I would need to use the magic tool that Master gave me to deal with you. Otherwise, how would you have the chance to escape!"
As the young man spoke, he opened his folding fan. On the surface of the fan was a vast picture of mountains and rivers, green mountains and clear waters, extremely magnificent. However, before he could see it clearly, the picture on the fan changed into a picture of a crescent moon hanging in the sky with a few faint stars, followed by a picture of a white bird looking up at a phoenix, a picture of a carp leaping into the water … In a short period of time, the picture on the fan had changed countless times, as if everything in the world was contained within this folding fan.
"This is the Heaven and Earth Fan! You are … "the three of them exclaimed at the same time.
"You're the disciple of One Elephant Wan Sheng, that Ji Fengming?" As the three of them spoke, a fourth voice suddenly came from the side.
The three of them looked to the side and saw that at the entrance of the monastery, the young man with a sword on his back, who had been poisoned by the Snake Lord and had fallen to the ground. He should have been dead, but he had somehow gotten up and was speaking as if nothing had happened.
"You're still alive after being hit by my Snake-Tooth Needle? How is that possible? "Snake Lord was shocked.
"The premise is that I hit it." The young man waved his hand, and two poisonous needles with a faint green light shot out from between his fingers, sinking into the depths of the ground. At the same time, he looked at the three of them and clicked his tongue in wonder. "Are you the Twelve Astrological Forms? I've long heard that the Animal Path is divided into two sects, Beast Taming and Beast Transformation. Among them, the Beast Transformation Sect cultivates the Beast King Tactics and transforms the body, making oneself more demonic than a demon and more beastly than a beast. Today, I've seen that you really live up to your reputation! "
"Who are you? What are you going to do? "Chicken Crown asked warily.
"What am I going to do? I didn't provoke anyone. In the middle of the night, I finally found a Taoist temple under the name of my sect. I was about to enter and rest, but you set a trap at the entrance. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have lost my life. What do you think I'm going to do next? " As the young man spoke, he slowly pulled out a sword from behind his back. The moonlight reflected off the sword's brilliance, reflecting a cold chill. Before the sword was released, the temperature in the monastery had already dropped. "Over there, you're Ji Fengming, Fellow Daoist Ji, right? Let's make a deal. How about letting me deal with these three?"
"That's me." Although Ji Fengming agreed verbally, she was still wary of this sword-wielding youth. In the middle of nowhere, their origins were unknown. How could she know if this youth was in cahoots with the people from the Path of the Beast and was deliberately putting on a show? She said, "I have already sworn in front of my fellow Wu family members that I will personally kill these three evil followers, so forgive me for not being able to comply."
"Ha, if that's the case, then let's see who's faster!" With a clang, the young man pulled out his sword. In an instant, a deep blue light shot out like scattered moonlight, piercing towards Horse Face.
"So fast!" Horse Face had just thought of this, but the sword's light was already in front of his eyes. The coldness of the sword forced him to think, and he quickly retreated. But the sword's light still followed him like a shadow, locking on to three inches in front of his chest.
Horse Face let out a neigh and leaned back, using his hands to support himself. His legs kicked continuously, and the tight muscles on his legs tore apart his pants and boots, revealing horse legs and hooves. Every kick from his crescent-shaped soles was enough to shatter stones. When a person of the Animal Dao transformed into a beast, he obtained a power that was a hundred times more ferocious than a beast.
The horse's hooves were fast and heavy, but the young man's sword fought speed with speed and weight with weight. In just a short moment, they had exchanged countless blows. Horse Face felt his strength diminish, but the young man's sword was like a tidal wave, without end, as if there was endless room for improvement.
Horse-Face's heart trembled. They, the Twelve Constellations, were famous in the Beast Path, and to be able to have such a notorious reputation, they were naturally not weaklings. Back then, when he had followed Di Lingtian to battle, he had kicked many people from the righteous path to death. Now, it had been easily blocked by a young man.
'Motherf * cker, the little bastard chasing us is Wei Wushuang's disciple. No wonder he's so difficult to deal with. But where did this kid come from? Are all young people like this now?' Horse Face howled in his heart, but he had already made up his mind.
Using the Beast Vitality Formula to its fullest, he placed both his hands on the ground as the center of a circle and spun his body in a circle. Borrowing the force of the rotation, both his feet simultaneously launched his strongest attack. In a split second, his two hooves pressed down like a wall, and the surrounding air gave off an explosive sound from this attack.
"Good move!" The young man praised. He changed to holding his sword with both hands, and like Zhenwu Demon Vanquishing, he swung his sword in a domineering and fierce arc from top to bottom, fiercely smashing towards the two hooves that were coming at him.
There was a sound of metal clashing, and the air flow exploded from the point of contact. The young man's figure took half a step back. However, Horse Face used the rebound force of the sword to rush out of the door.
Horse Face was as confident as the Snake Lord. He knew that a little monster like Ji Fengming was already difficult for them to deal with. Now, there was another little monster with unfathomable sword skills at such a young age. How could they survive if they were entangled with these two little monsters? Therefore, he did not hesitate to use the divine power of Swift.
Among the demon race, there were a few lucky ones who automatically awakened their natural divine powers after they transformed. The Animal Dao was similar. Divine powers could also be awakened through the cultivation of the Beast Essence Technique. Furthermore, it did not depend on luck. As long as one's cultivation base reached a certain level, anyone could cultivate divine powers. Horse Face's divine power was the leg strength of a thousand-mile divine steed. With a stomp of his foot, his figure broke through the door and fled a hundred meters away. As for his two companions, they could only pray for their own good luck.
'Old Snake, Old Chicken, it's not that I don't care about our friendship. It's just that if I save you, none of you will be able to leave. I'll leave my life to inform the Dragon and Tiger Duo. They'll definitely avenge you …' Horse Face thought as he looked at his body and sprinted forward.
'Wait? Why can I see my body? Why doesn't my body have a head? '
As he thought of this, Horse Face's head fell from the sky and rolled a few times in the direction of the monastery. He saw the young man shaking off the remnant blood on his sword and slowly sheathing it.
'What a fast sword. What a little monster …' Horse Face's vision gradually turned black. The last scene he saw was forever fixed in his mind.
When the young man sheathed his sword and turned around, he saw that Ji Fengming's battle had also ended. The cockscomb man held two chicken claws in his hands. The claws were already in front of Ji Fengming's nose, but he could not go any further. This was because a layer of ice had formed on his entire body. He had become a huge ice sculpture that could not move.
Ji Fengming knocked on the ice sculpture with her folding fan. With a crisp sound, cracks spread across the ice sculpture like a spider web. Then, with a few crisp sounds, the ice sculpture broke into pieces. The cockscomb man was scattered on the ground just like that.
Ji Fengming no longer looked at the cockscomb man. She pointed at the Snake Lord with her folding fan and said, "You're the only one left!"
The Snake Lord felt a chill all over his body when he was pointed at him. He did not expect that his two companions would be defeated so quickly. He did not even have time to support them. He was the only one left. He could not stop himself from taking a step back. Suddenly, he pulled the girl he had captured and said fiercely, "Don't come over, or I'll kill her!"
The Snake Lord grabbed the girl's slender and fair neck. It gave people the feeling that a snake had wrapped itself around a white swan. The girl did not say a word. It was as if she was really crazy.
"Do you know her?" The young man holding the sword looked at Ji Fengming.
Ji Fengming shook her head slowly. "No, but she's innocent."
"Ha, fortunately, I'm not a good person. I say, the snake in front, who are you trying to threaten with a girl that we don't even know?" The young man holding the sword pressed his hand on the sword and walked forward unconcernedly. With every step he took, the sword will on his body grew stronger.
"Is that so? Then there's no need to keep her alive! "The Snake Lord's eyes sharpened. He pressed his scaly palm toward the girl's head.
However, they heard two shouts. "Stop!" The young man holding the sword stopped and shouted at the same time as Ji Fengming.
The Snake Lord's fierce palm was about to reach the girl's head, but he suddenly retracted it. He grinned and showed his snake teeth. He said proudly, "Sure enough, I said this girl is so beautiful. Who wouldn't love her? You young people, how can you not want to be a hero and save a beauty? I don't want to destroy a beauty. If you want to save her life, you will let me go. "
Ji Fengming and the young man holding the sword looked at each other and exchanged opinions. Ji Fengming snorted coldly and said, "Leave her and go!"
The Snake Lord looked happy. He was about to escape, but his snake-like pupils shrank and revealed a sinister look. He said, "Don't rush. I'm not stupid. What if you two catch up after I lose the amulet?"
"Then what do you want?" The young man holding the sword asked.
"You two hit each other with all your strength. You are not allowed to resist. After that, I will give this girl to whoever can stand firm."
"You want us to kill each other? Nice try!" Ji Fengming said coldly.
The Snake Lord hissed and laughed strangely. "Does this count as killing each other? Even if you hit each other, you won't lose your life. You're just giving me a guarantee. Otherwise, how can I let her go?"
"How do we know that you won't kill us all in one fell swoop while we're injured?" The young man holding the sword said.
"Hiss hiss, I just want to escape, I don't want to cause trouble. I don't want to know if you two injured people can deal with me together. Alright, don't think about delaying. Hit each other with your palms!"
However, the two youths did not move. The Snake Lord urged, "Hurry up. I will count to ten. If you don't make a move, this girl will die."
"One!"
"Two!"
"Three!"
…
The Snake Lord dragged out his words. He seemed to be urging them with every word. The two of them looked hesitant. They clenched and loosened their hands that were holding the sword and the fan, but neither of them made a move.
"Nine!" The Snake Lord gradually became impatient. He raised his hand again and was about to strike.
"Ten!" The Snake Lord mercilessly attacked the girl as soon as he finished speaking.
"Stop!" The two of them shouted at the same time. The Snake Lord's hand slowed down. The two young men moved at the same time, but they didn't attack each other. The young man holding the sword moved like the wind, but his body was faster than the wind. A gust of wind blew, and his sword stabbed toward the Snake Lord.
Ji Fengming pushed her palm forward. The runes on her palm shone, and a dazzling lightning shot out. It was the Daoist secret technique, Palm Thunder!
If they danced with others, they would only be manipulated by others. The two young men made a decision. They bet on one move.
"Let's fight!" The Snake Lord also became ruthless. Even if he died, he would drag one of them down with him. He pushed his palm to kill the girl.
Fast sword, fast lightning, fierce palm, and one person's life. It was a three-way fight to see who could be faster! But the final result was —
"Time's up!"
Accompanied by a crisp sound, a small white hand holding a fortune-telling stick suddenly pierced upwards!
The wooden stick was steady, straightforward, and neat. Like a dagger, it pierced through the Snake Lord's scale-covered jaw and mercilessly pierced into his brain. The Snake Lord lost all his strength, and his palm softly brushed past the girl's body.
At the same time, the sword and the lightning arrived. The lifeless Snake Lord suffered another heavy blow. Blood splashed everywhere, and his slender body was smashed into the side wall of the Taoist temple. Half of his body was smashed into the wall.
Blood splashed everywhere, and the silver moonlight flowed. The girl was bathed in blood and moonlight, showing two completely different auras of evil and holiness at the same time.
She looked up at the sky. There was no trace of infatuation in her bright black eyes. She looked through the hole in the roof to the moon in the middle of the sky. She put her hands together and patted the fortune-telling stick in her palm. Her pretty face was stained with blood, and she said happily, "It's just past midnight. A day has passed. Hee hee, today was a close call. Everything is going according to my calculations!"
