Inside the Four Spirits Formation, Yi Tian encountered the Yellow Fur Lion Huang Jing and fought fiercely. Both sides used all of their methods in close combat. Yi Tian used many defensive spells and movement techniques to barely block his opponent's lightning halberd.
However, the numbness in his hand didn't dissipate for a long time. In the end, he could only secretly circulate his cultivation to force the lightning out of his hand. After the lightning dissipated, Yi Tian revealed a playful expression. He turned around and saw that Huang Jing wasn't much better off than him.
Under the encirclement of sword silks, Huang Jing grabbed the talisman around his neck and poured his spirit force into it. A moment later, a faint layer of golden light enveloped him once again, and the sword threads that blotted out the sky and covered the earth immediately swarmed towards him.
After the sword silks struck, they once again entered the golden light barrier. However, this time, they lasted for about ten breaths of time before stopping. After the attack subsided, the talisman around Huang Jing's neck had become dim. It appeared that it couldn't be used again.
At this moment, Huang Jing revealed a trace of heartache and regret. This talisman was clearly his trump card. Of course, he was unwilling to let it be used up by a late-stage Deity Transformation cultivator.
Before he could do anything, an imperceptibly thin sword thread suddenly appeared in the void behind him. However, this sword silk was far more condensed than normal and contained traces of gentle golden light. It was clear that a lot of Buddhist power had been poured into it.
Before Huang Jing could react, his expression suddenly changed as if he had sensed danger behind him. His figure rapidly flashed as the imperceptible sword silk appeared before him.
A ripple appeared in the air not far away. It was Huang Jing who had used teleportation to arrive. However, just as he steadied himself, several bloody lines appeared on his body. Then, Yi Tian suddenly split into two halves, one high and one low. When he came back to his senses, he saw that his body had been powerlessly split into two.
Suddenly, a golden light flew out from the top of Huang Jing's head and attempted to quickly escape. However, a trace of light appeared from the Demon Nascent Soul's body from the center of its head to its tail. The Demon Nascent Soul's demonic elemental energy crazily flowed out from the light, and Huang Jing's Demon Nascent Soul's spirit body immediately collapsed and split in half like its body.
At this point, Yi Tian could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The Feiyu Kenshū Sect's swordsmanship was worthy of its reputation as a killing move. Under the support of his spiritual sword, it was exceptionally sharp and could even easily break through the defense of these FenShen Stage demons.
However, the talisman on Huang Jing's neck was indeed impressive. It was actually able to forcefully block two of his attacks. He flew forward and grabbed the talisman that had fallen to the ground. Then, he took off the remaining equipment from the Yellow Lion Spirit.
After a short while, Yi Tian found an open space on a barren mountain and sat down on the ground to count the spoils of war. Naturally, the talisman was of utmost importance. Taking a closer look, it was obvious that it was a tooth dropped from a Primogenitor level Demonic Beast.
As for the leather clothing with obvious talisman markings, it seemed to be some kind of spirit tool. The leather clothing should have been made from the fur of a high-grade Storm Demon Wolf or Devil Seal Leopard. However, the talisman markings on it were too crude. The talisman markings were drawn using beast blood, but they weren't refined.
If he refined it, perhaps he could make a higher grade defensive spirit tool.
Just as Yi Tian was feeling pleased with himself, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He felt as if he was being watched. Normally, when he felt something like this, it wasn't wrong.
After a few drops of cold sweat dripped down his forehead, he stood up. At the same time, he quickly put away the talisman and beast hide spirit tools. Then, he leaped into the air in an attempt to escape.
Just as he was about to use an escape technique, a blue light flashed before his eyes. He saw an old man in his fifties appear in front of him. The old man looked at him with a smile.
The old man had a head of yellow hair and wore a linen robe. His appearance was no different from a human's. There was no demonic power emanating from his body, so he was unable to ascertain his true strength. It was clear that he was a fully evolved demonic being.
At this moment, a sense of fear welled up in Yi Tian's heart. He had never felt such a sense of oppression before. It was as if he couldn't summon up any thoughts of resistance in the face of this old man.
It wasn't that he couldn't, but there was no need to. Yi Tian could tell that the disparity in their cultivation bases was too great.
There was no doubt that he was a Body Integration Stage cultivator, and he was none other than Patriarch Hou Tian of the Demon Clan mentioned by the Yellow Lion Spirit. However, Patriarch Roar Sky didn't seem to have any intention of attacking, so he naturally didn't dare to act rashly.
After a brief stalemate, Yi Tian couldn't help but ask, "May I ask if Senior is Patriarch Roar Sky?"
"How dare you kill my disciple?" Patriarch Roar Sky said in an indifferent voice.
These words rang out like a thunderclap in Yi Tian's ears. It was clear that Patriarch Roar Sky had secretly infused his voice with some pressure to produce such power.
However, he was also experienced in battles. He was in a daze for a moment, so he hurriedly recited the Bodhi Heart Coagulation Mantra to calm his mind.
After a while, he mustered up his courage and replied, "Huang Jing chased after me for no reason, so I naturally couldn't just stand there and let him kill me. Besides, Huang Jing was defeated by me because he wasn't skilled enough. "
"That's true," Patriarch Roar Sky said with a smile, "You're right. His cultivation base was stronger than yours, and he had my protective talisman. However, he died in your hands in the end."
Patriarch Roar Sky suddenly changed the topic. He stared at Yi Tian and shouted, "How dare you! They say that you have to look at the owner before beating a dog. Aren't you afraid of offending me after killing Huang Jing?"
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid," Yi Tian said with a lingering fear, "But I know that I may still be useful. Otherwise, Patriarch naturally wouldn't spend so much effort to talk nonsense with me."
A knowing smile appeared on Ancestor Roar Sky's face when he heard Yi Tian's words. His eyes were filled with admiration as he looked at Yi Tian. Then he said in a gentle tone, "I originally agreed with a few old friends to send a disciple to the fragment void to get something. Now that Huang Jing is dead, I'll have to trouble you to go on his behalf."
"Can I say no?" Yi Tian said with a wry smile, "I think the strength of the rest of them is basically at the early stage of the Spirit Severing stage. Will a Spirit Severing stage cultivator like me be taken advantage of after going in?"
"Don't worry, there is still some time before the deadline. You can take this opportunity to cultivate in my cave house for a while and try to improve your cultivation base to the Spirit Severing Peak stage. At the very least, you should reach the late stage of the Spirit Severing stage." Patriarch Roar Sky said without hesitation.
Knowing that he had no choice now, he immediately nodded helplessly and said, "In this case, Patriarch Roar Sky will not pursue this matter. Yi Tian will naturally do his best to complete the mission. It can be considered as leaving a way out for myself."
