Chapter 50 Ouyang Yue
"kill!"
A sword light flew out from the Demon-Slaying Gourd, flashing a fierce light and slashing hard at the head of a wolf demon.
The late-stage Tier 1 wolf demon roared and spat out countless ice spikes, which rained down upon us in a dense barrage.
"Bluestone - Amidst a Thousand Peaks!"
Xu Yuanlang did not dodge as before. His expression remained unchanged, and he silently uttered a word. The next moment, a huge rock appeared.
The boulder, over ten feet tall, resembles a real mountain peak, with numerous folds and even the valleys eroded by flowing water.
"Bang! Bang!"
The icicles shattered upon impact with the rocks, leaving only small dents the size of a finger. However, compared to the massive rocks, these dents were almost imperceptible and could be restored by nurturing them in the dantian for a few months.
"efficient!"
Seeing that his earth-elemental natal magic weapon was useful, he couldn't help but nod, his efforts had not been in vain.
"If it is infused with the Qi of Cuiwei in the future, the recovery speed of this magic weapon will be even faster."
It took him three months to successfully fuse the Falling Star Stone and the Yinji Qi, and only then could his earth-elemental natal magic weapon, Thousand Peaks, barely take shape.
Now that he's testing the waters, he's very satisfied with the results; its defensive power is no weaker than that of an ordinary first-tier high-grade defensive magic weapon.
Once the energy of the verdant peaks, the mountain ranges, and the mysterious valleys is incorporated into it in the future, the defensive power of this magical artifact will definitely be even stronger.
The wolf's head was severed off, and a green vine grew from its neck, with a blood-red fruit attached to it.
"A first-grade high-quality Qi and Blood Fruit, it can increase Qi and Blood by eating it, but it is not very valuable to cultivators."
Even after recognizing the spirit fruit, he still picked it. In the future, when he went to Nanping Market, he would need spirit stones everywhere. Although the effects of the Qi and Blood Fruit were limited, it could always fetch a good price.
"Old Xu, charge into the wolf pack ahead and drive them out of the caravan."
Guo Lin rode his Crimson Flame Horse and charged in from behind. His magical gourd spewed out red flames, instantly engulfing the nearby demon wolves. At the same time, he shouted a warning to Xu Yuanlang.
"good!"
"Thump!"
Just as the two were about to press on and charge forward, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the ground, and a huge sphere of light rose into the sky.
The guards who were fighting the wolf pack stopped and looked up, only to see the imposing Shen Xi at the center of the sphere of light.
A radiant light enveloped him, making him appear like a war god. Facing him was an ice wolf over three zhang long, a second-tier demonic beast with strength equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This ice wolf has sword-shaped ice spikes growing on its head, making it look like a crown, which is quite majestic.
Seeing the imposing Shen Xi, the Ice Wolf roared and exerted force with its limbs, leaving a trail of ice crystals wherever it landed.
It finally crouched down, its shoulder blades bulging high, its flesh stretched to its limit. The next moment, it exerted a sudden force, and the ground even exploded with its four footholds. Then, it stretched out its limbs and slammed its front paws down hard on Shen Xi.
"ha!"
Shen Xi suddenly moved, his eyes wide with anger. A large die suddenly appeared above his head. Looking at the attacking wolf king, he coldly pointed the die, which slammed into the wolf king's head.
The seemingly sturdy crown shattered inch by inch, and finally its skull caved in with a crack. Before the wolf king could even let out a scream, it turned into a pile of minced meat.
"Awoo!"
After the wolf king was killed, the wolf pack, which had been as disciplined as an army, instantly fell apart, and countless demon wolves fled in all directions.
"Chase down these demon wolves!"
Vice Captain Feng Mi stood on his Crimson Flame Horse, waving the flag in his hand vigorously. All the guards immediately understood the meaning and frantically chased after the demon wolf.
After losing their wolf king, these demon wolves were a disorganized mess and no longer posed a threat to them.
All the guards were harvesting the spirit creatures as quickly as possible.
"Miss Ouyang, we are about to pass through Baiyun Pass."
The caravan manager bowed respectfully to the spirited female monk.
"I understand. Tell the guards to come back quickly, and also tell everyone in the caravan to be on high alert."
"When we cross the pass, we might all have to fight to the death."
"yes!"
After galloping for a short while, the caravan recalled them. The next step was to rest and recuperate before quickly passing through the Baiyun Pass.
Many of the guards chose to drink and play drinking games, just like ordinary people having fun. He wasn't very interested, so he walked away alone for a while.
They were in a valley, which provided shelter from the wind and rain.
"Boom!"
Just then, he heard the sound of a waterfall splashing in the distance, and since he was bored, he went over to investigate.
At this moment, the moon was high in the sky above the willow branches, and the surroundings were very bright, like daytime. Unfortunately, a thin mist lingered all around, making it look like a dream.
The waterfall is about ten zhang high, rushing out from the mountain forest and falling into the crevices of the rocks, polishing the craggy rocks until they are smooth and round, while the water turns into bright white dots, like pearls falling into the pool below.
More water crashed against the rocks, shattering into a cool mist that permeated the surrounding area.
"Splash!"
Just then, the sound of splashing water came from the pool, which sounded like thunder to Xu Yuanlang. He stiffly lowered his head and saw a woman with a petite figure standing up with her back to him in the pool.
"Damn it!"
He cursed himself inwardly for not noticing anything, and after glancing at it a couple more times, he prepared to turn and leave.
"I've seen enough!"
A mocking voice rang out from behind, sending a chill down his spine.
"Miss Ou... Miss Ou..."
"Pfft!"
The woman behind him suddenly rang out with a silvery laugh, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. This was not just a caravan manager, but a genuine Foundation Establishment cultivator who had lived for an unknown amount of time.
"Tsk, who told you my surname is Ou!"
"The guards in the caravan told me!"
"Them!"
The woman's voice was languid and amused as she stretched.
"Turn back!"
Xu Yuanlang turned around and saw that the other person was already wearing a silver-white long dress, looking breathtakingly beautiful under the moonlight.
Seeing Xu Yuanlang's stunned expression, the other person burst out laughing.
"Senior, I didn't mean to spy, it's just..."
The other party did not respond to his confession, but continued talking to himself.
"My surname isn't Ou. My surname is Ouyang, and my given name is Yue. Also, I'm not some old lady. I'm just a little older than you. You can call me Miss Ouyang or Ouyang in private."
Cold sweat broke out on Xu Yuanlang's forehead again. How could she know what he was thinking?
