Section 84: Exhibiting Unique Abilities!

The Four Lords’ combined assault forces Marquis Wu Chang to retreat, spitting blood!
“Hmm?!” Sensing the four Jun level spiritual pressures, Greedy Wolf King and Wine King raised their eyebrows, both surprised.
“How is this possible?”
“They are also Jun level?!”
Black Mountain Barbarian Lord and the others were shocked. This was simply unbelievable. Geniuses like Chu Yun and Erlang Tian Jun only appeared one or two in a thousand years, if that. But now, two more had suddenly appeared?
They had initially thought the opposing lineup had only one King level and two Jun level experts. But now, they discovered that in addition to Wine King, Drunken Snow Fox Lord, and Erlang Tian Jun, there were two more Jun level individuals!
This was an unexpected turn of events!
“Damn you! You dare to injure me?!” After shaking off his shock, Marquis Wu Chang was consumed by rage, nearly igniting the Nine Heavens. He possessed profound strength and had initially believed he could suppress them single-handedly. However, he had unexpectedly suffered a setback and retreated while spitting blood.
This was a huge blow to his pride.
He, the esteemed City Lord of Nine Nether City, had been dominating Xingzhou before Chu Yun and the others were even born. He was a paramount overlord in the Wanderer world and the sect leader of a top-tier force. Yet, now he was force to retreat, spitting blood, by four juniors working together. If this news spread, where would Marquis Wu Chang’s reputation go?
“You are all dead, completely dead. Black and White Imper!” Marquis Wu Chang roared. He was utterly furious and unleashed his trump card.
Instantly, his Marquis level spiritual pressure surged outwards, engulfing all directions.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh… An eerie wind swept through, filled with ghostly wails.
One white shadow and one black shadow, flanking from left and right, descended with the immense demonic energy of Tribulation Demons.
Their speed was incredibly fast.
They traversed space as if they were wisps of smoke, encountering no resistance whatsoever.
Chu Yun and the other three were moved. In an instant, they felt as if they had been plunged into the Underworld and hell, enveloped by boundless darkness. It was as if the sun and moon had ceased to shine, the heavens and earth had collapsed, and the end of the world had arrived.
This was the feeling evoked by Marquis Wu Chang’s spiritual pressure, combined with the attacks of the Black and White Imper demonic beasts, delivering a tremendous psychological impact.
A mysterious, dangerous, and dark killing intent firmly locked onto Chu Yun and the other three. For a moment, they all had an inexplicable premonition that if they were struck by the Black and White Imper, their souls would be scattered, with no other outcome!
Marquis Wu Chang’s profound strength was evident at this moment.
“Jianmu!”
At this critical juncture, Chu Yun patted his Immortal Pouch, summoning the Jianmu, a Tribulation Demon from over a million years ago. It emitted a verdant green radiance, spreading across the sky to block the attack.
However, the black and white shadows pierced directly through the Jianmu, penetrating the defensive Divine Path Technique and rushing forward.
“Let me. Great Sun Radiant Armor!” Erlang Tian Jun, treading on the Starry Boots, stepped forward. His armor erupted with a radiance like the sun, blocking the front.
The black shadow’s charge was immediately thwarted. Under the brilliance of the Great Sun Radiant Armor, its true form was revealed.
It had a human-like form, clad in black robes, exuding a dense aura of Yin energy. Its face was ferocious, and it wore a tall hat that resembled a black club. Four large characters, “Peace Under Heaven,” were emblazoned on the hat.
It was none other than the Black Imper!
In contrast, the white shadow accelerated, moving as if in water, undeterred by light-based Divine Path Techniques, and continued its assault.
Ghost-type demonic creatures, along with poison and sound types, were known as the three unorthodox paths, vastly different from Xingzhou’s mainstream nine-elemental demonic beasts and not to be judged by common reasoning.
Marquis Wu Chang’s Black and White Imper demonic beasts complemented each other. The Black Imper, possessing both shadow and ghost attributes, excelled in night combat, while the White Imper, possessing light and ghost attributes, was more effective in daylight. Together, they fought like a pair of matched swords, making their opponents extremely troubled.
“Not good!” Erlang Tian Jun’s expression darkened. Seeing the White Imper about to pounce on him, his vision suddenly blurred.
When he looked closely, it was Chu Yun.
“Good timing,” Chu Yun sneered, holding the Innate Drunken Snow Saber and unleashing a beam of Dissolution Light.
The saber light danced like dragons and snakes. Wherever it passed, the saber light became dominant, and the magnificent light of the Great Sun Radiant Armor dissipated. The White Imper collided with the saber light, immediately letting out a piercing cry and retreating at lightning speed.
“Hmm? Dissolving Light Divine Path Technique!” Marquis Wu Chang was startled. He pointed at Chu Yun, and a Heart Ghost lunged out.
This ghost was formless and extremely fast, like a shooting star. It was a supreme assassination technique that, once it struck its target, would devour the soul, leaving behind a complete corpse.
Marquis Wu Chang’s dominance in Xingzhou was partly built on the power of the Heart Ghost.
The number of powerful individuals who had died by the Heart Ghost’s hand included both Jun level and even Marquis level cultivators.
He hated Chu Yun to the bone and understood that Chu Yun was the pillar of the four. If he were to kill Chu Yun, the remaining three would fall apart.
As the killing intent approached silently, Chu Yun could not detect the Heart Ghost’s presence, and all four were unaware.
“Marquis Wu Chang, you’ve come at just the right time. Be my whetstone!” Chu Yun’s eyes shot out sharp beams of light, locking onto Marquis Wu Chang. Just as he was about to attack, the spiritual light within him surged.
Within the spiritual light, near the center, a dreamscape emitted a brilliant glow. In the dreamscape, treasures were piled high, emitting a sky-piercing radiance. Celestial maidens danced, scattering a magnificent rain of flowers. This was none other than the Illusionary Immortal Dreamscape, a Divine Path Technique learned from Jin Bihan.
“Divine Power Alarma!”
Suddenly, this thought flashed through Chu Yun’s mind.
Without hesitation, he summoned the Golden Jade Immortal Butterfly. The immortal butterfly fluttered around him, emitting a golden jade radiance that enveloped his entire body.
The Heart Ghost collided with it, causing the butterfly wings to tremble violently, and the radiance immediately disintegrated. The Heart Ghost’s attack was narrowly blocked.
Chu Yun slash his saber again, but the Heart Ghost had already vanished.
This technique was definitely an unparalleled assassination art, incredibly troublesome.
Boom, boom, boom…
Furious explosions continued unabated, like rolling thunder. Over there, Wine King and Greedy Wolf King were engaged in a fierce duel, both exerting their full strength and pushing the battle to its climax.
King level spiritual pressure shook the heavens and suppressed the Nine Nether. Powerful Divine Path Technique attacks formed waves of multicolored light, surging forward like a tidal wave. They finally collided fiercely in the center, creating a sky full of scattered light and shards.
Wine King had originally held an advantage over Greedy Wolf King, but Greedy Wolf King seized the initiative. His primary trump card, the Mountain River Time Great Wine Vat, was swallowed by the Taotie. For a time, he was unable to assist Chu Yun and the others.
“Hahaha, you brats are struggling quite amusingly. Let me, Black Mountain Barbarian Lord, take your lives.” Black Mountain Barbarian Lord arrived with ill intentions, holding his Mountain-Shaking Drum and beating it rhythmically.
Waves of sound assaulted them, vibrating the air and emitting thunderous roars. Terrifying shockwaves instantly formed, sweeping towards Chu Yun and the other three in waves, ferociously!
Sound-based Divine Path Techniques were very obscure and difficult to block. Even worse, along with the rolling drumbeats, countless Black Wood Crows flew out from Black Mountain Barbarian Lord’s Immortal Pouch.
The black wood crows cawed incessantly, filling the sky. They had initially formed dense, layered masses. But as the drumbeats changed, their formation shifted dramatically, forming three arrow-like assault formations that heavily bombarded Chu Yun.
These Black Wood Crow swarms exuded overwhelming demonic energy. There were over five thousand of them, and their cultivation was exceptional, including numerous Great Demons, over a hundred Spirit Monsters, and three Tribulation Demons!
Black Mountain Barbarian Lord was a top expert of the super-tier force Beast Barbarian Association. With one foot already in the Marquis level, he was exceptionally skilled in group attack tactics. To hone his beast horde, he roamed the mountains year-round, leaving devastation in his wake and sweeping up all demonic creatures.
The Black Wood Crow horde he cultivated was so numerous that sometimes, upon landing on a mountain, it could turn Green Hill into Black Mountain in an instant. Hence, he was called Black Mountain Barbarian Lord.
This horde of Black Wood Crows had already spread out, vast and mighty, and this was merely his vanguard.
Jin Bihan’s heart tightened, knowing that once they were swept by the crow swarm and lost the initiative, they would be at a severe disadvantage and forced to defend passively.
She summoned her zither and sat cross-legged in the air, her fingers moving like blooming lotuses.
Her clear zither music sliced into the drumbeats, greatly disrupting Black Mountain Barbarian Lord’s command, causing the Black Wood Crow horde to stir uneasily.
Chu Yun frowned, intending to release the Azure Locusts, but hesitated. The crow swarm countered locusts, and the Golden Jade Immortal Butterfly swarm was not good at head-on combat, nor could the hope be placed on the butterfly swarm.
“I’ll do it.” Erlang Tian Jun spoke, unlocking his Immortal Pouch and summoning his Blood Bat swarm.
This blood bat swarm was originally meant to deal with Chu Yun. However, after their battle, the situation developed unexpectedly, and the blood bat swarm never made an appearance.
Now, upon deployment, the blood bat swarm immediately clashed with the Black Wood Crows. The two beast hordes entangled in the air, splattering blood and scattering bones. Demonic Crystals rained down like raindrops, and for a time, it was difficult to determine a victor.
“Hehehehe, this is getting more and more interesting.” Nine-tailed Demon Lord strolled leisurely into the arena, a charming black cat perched on his shoulder, seemingly unfazed by the battle, appearing lazy.
“Four benefactors, relinquish your butcher knives and ascend to the Western Heaven, and you shall attain Buddhahood.” Zen Lord, leaning on a golden khakkhara staff and riding a flying dragon, descended from the sky.
“Die.” Wolf Fang Lord spoke sparingly, his eyes like a falcon’s, fixed on the weakest Xiao Xiaoxian. He held the fearsome Black Demon Dagger and suddenly vanished from his spot.
Xiao Xiaoxian’s face changed drastically, and he quickly activated his Shuttle of Hidden Passage and Sky Crane, disappearing from his position.
“Interesting.” Wolf Fang Lord reappeared, but he had missed. He licked his lips and muttered in a hoarse voice, his eyes filled with surging killing intent as he looked at Xiao Xiaoxian, who had reappeared not far away.
He wielded the Space-Severing Cosmic Boat, a renowned spatial demonic weapon ranked third among the Seven Divine Boats, with a Tribulation Demon cultivation of seventy-seven million years. Coupled with the sixty-eight million-year-old Black Demon Dagger, they formed a deadly combination. The number of Jun level experts who had perished under this demonic item combination was countless.
“Moon Rabbit!”
Chu Yun summoned the Moon Rabbit and aimed it at Wolf Fang Lord, attempting to restrict his spatial demonic weapon with time-based Divine Path Techniques.
“Spirit Mountain Sound Dragon, Transcendent Zen Sound.” Zen Lord’s eyes lit up upon seeing the Moon Rabbit. He shouted, and the giant dragon beneath him opened its maw, spitting out rings of golden sound waves towards the Moon Rabbit.
The Moon Rabbit was enveloped by the sound waves, its body immediately becoming unstable, nearly falling from Chu Yun’s shoulder. Its eyes flickered, and its connection with Chu Yun’s spiritual light weakened.
