Ji Yaozi!

"Happy!"

"Happy!"

Lu Qingfeng exclaimed that it was so much fun.

In the midst of battle.

Lu Qingfeng then resorted to various methods.

The twelve Ironback Centipede combined within the Green Bamboo Staff, sometimes forming the Dutian Baleful Gods Formation and Demons, greatly amplifying their power and forcing the poisonous Poison Dragon to retreat repeatedly. At other times, they formed the Cosmic Star Array, shifting and turning, completely neutralizing the Poison Dragon's counterattacks and fierce attacks.

Occasionally, he would also have to use his Divine Ability.

During the stalemate, the Pure Heavenly Fire suddenly ignited from the Green Bamboo Staff, burning the Poison Dragon in a sorry state.

It's not a nose, and it's not an eye.

Or perhaps the Six Roots Purification Method was activated, causing the poisonous Poison Dragon to stagger and become dizzy.

"Wow!"

But the Poison Dragon is not someone to be trifled with.

He fought against the demon kings in Black Wind Mountain, displaying unparalleled combat skills. He wielded a large halberd with great force, his martial arts prowess evident in his ability to frequently dodge the parries of the Green Bamboo Staff, leaving Lu Qingfeng in a sorry state.

It was truly a meeting of equals, a clash of titans.

They fought for over a hundred rounds, with neither side gaining the upper hand.

"What a bamboo demon! It can actually fight the Poison Dragon to a standstill!"

The commotion from their battle had already alerted the surrounding area.

"Amazing!"

The mountain god and the earth god hid in the pit, secretly watching, their eyes wide with astonishment.

"Goodness."

"Having just transformed into human form, he can already fight Poison Dragon?"

There were also demon kings like the Three-Tailed Blackfish. They had initially underestimated the Bamboo Demon, who had just taken human form. But now, seeing that Lu Qingfeng was no less powerful than the Poison Dragon, their expressions changed.

"Again!"

Lu Qingfeng ignored the onlookers around him.

They fought with increasing ferocity.

Poison Dragon, on the other hand, said, "It's best not to get entangled, lest someone else takes advantage of the situation!"

Black Wind Mountain is home to many demon kings.

There was another city to the east, where a Daoist priest, revered by the Great Tang Kingdom, was stationed. He was extremely powerful, so the Poison Dragon dared not delay.

"Get out of my way!"

Seeing that he couldn't defeat Lu Qingfeng, he twirled his halberd in a fancy way.

Boom!

He deflected the Green Bamboo Staff and retreated rapidly back towards Black Wind Mountain, still shouting, "You bamboo demon, you can protect them for a while, but I'll see if you can protect them forever!"

The words fell.

The figure disappeared.

"Snort!"

"You're lucky you ran fast!"

Lu Qingfeng snorted coldly, unafraid of the Poison Dragon's threat.

He possesses the Heavenly Demon Blood-Transforming Divine Saber and other Great Divine Ability yet to be used.

Killing this Poison Dragon is just a matter of a single thought.

However, considering that Poison Dragon would eventually become a third-generation disciple of the Way of Heaven Sect and that he had some connection with him, it was not appropriate to go too far, so he let it go.

We then turned back into the mountains.

"My husband is mighty."

Ao Le stepped forward and was dazzled to see Lu Qingfeng display his divine power and drive away the Poison Dragon.

She was also proud of her husband.

Lu Qingfeng smiled and said, "This Poison Dragon is highly skilled. Even I have to be careful when dealing with it without using Divine Ability or Spirit Treasure. Next time we encounter those demon kings at the Earth Immortal level, Le'er also go and practice her skills and have a fight, so that everyone in Black Wind Mountain will know of Madam's reputation."

"OK."

"I think several of the demon kings there were just charlatans, not much better than me."

Ao Le Lu Qingfeng fighting so well, Ao Le was also eager to try it out.

The couple talked.

At this moment.

The two women who had been abducted by the Poison Dragon and rescued by Lu Qingfeng also woke up. These two women were about seventeen or eighteen years old, with fair skin and beautiful features. At this moment, they were so frightened that they were trembling all over and dared not make a sound.

Lu Qingfeng took two steps forward, which frightened the two young women so much that they retreated and huddled together.

"..."

Lu Qingfeng stopped abruptly, shook his head, and stood at a distance, saying loudly, "The monster that kidnapped you two has been driven away by this humble Daoist. Where do you two live? This humble Daoist will take you back now."

"They drove them away?"

The two women were taken aback by what they heard, and then boldly raised their heads.

Sure enough, the lewd monster dressed as a general was not in front of them; instead, a man and a woman appeared.

The man is handsome and has endless charm; he is like a gentleman, so handsome that one cannot bear to look away.

I immediately felt relieved.

The larger-looking woman rose from her slumped position and knelt before Lu Qingfeng, weeping as she pleaded, "Thank you so much for saving our lives, Immortal Master. But our parents and brothers have all been devoured by that monster, and my sister and I have nowhere to go. Please, Immortal Master, have mercy and take us in. We will serve you like cattle and horses to repay your great kindness!"

Poison Dragon has a good eye.

When this young lady started to cry, she was truly pitiful, her face streaked with tears.

If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely not be able to bear it and would take them in out of pity.

Lu Qingfeng, however, kept his eyes straight ahead and said calmly, "Since that's the case, my husband and I will send you and your sister to settle in the eastern part of the city. We'll also give you some money to start a business and make a living so you can live a good life."

As he spoke.

Lu Qingfeng waved his sleeve.

Before the two sisters could cry and beg again, a cloud lifted them up, frightening them so much that they shut their mouths and closed their eyes, too afraid to look or speak.

"It's a good opportunity to go into the city and meet that Daoist priest."

Lu Qingfeng said to Ao Le.

"Make sure to leave plenty of money later."

Ao Le, holding Lu Qingfeng's arm, spoke as they headed towards the eastern city with the two sisters.

Blackwind Black Wind City Black Wind Mountain.

This city could barely be considered a border city of the Great Tang Kingdom. It had a large population, so a Daoist priest was stationed there to guard against the evil spirits.

Throughout the Tang Dynasty, all the emperors were surnamed Li. They revered the Daoist patriarch Li Dan as their ancestor and established Daoism as the state religion. As long as a Daoist practitioner came to set up a Daoist Daoist Domain, they were granted land to build mansions and temples. The entire country respected Daoism.

The one stationed in Black Wind City is named 'Ji Yaozi'.

He had achieved great success in his cultivation on the sacred mountain, but eventually could not bear the loneliness of the mountain and came down to the Great Tang Kingdom.

Guarding Black Wind City.

This deterred the nineteen demon kings and tens of thousands of demon soldiers in the nine caves and ten streams of Black Wind Mountain from acting recklessly.

Lu Qingfeng's battle with the Poison Dragon was observed by Ji Yaozi from afar.

At that moment, Lu Qingfeng arrived.

The Daoist priest pretended not to know and came to the city gate. "Ji Yaozi Gathering Cloud Mountain Clear Creek Cave, Jiyun Mountain, greets you two fellow Daoists."

"So it was Ji Yaozi."

"This humble Guangyuan, and this is my wife, Ao Le. Greetings, fellow Daoist."

Lu Qingfeng led Ao Le to meet the Daoist priest and explained his purpose.

"Fellow Daoist Gaoyi!"

Ji Yaozi immediately became solemn and hurriedly led Lu Qingfeng and his wife into the city, and then had people settle the two sisters down.

The two sides immediately became friendly.

"Just now I saw you defeat the Poison Dragon, and your demeanor was truly impressive. May I ask where you two are from?"

Ji Yaozi invited Lu Qingfeng and the other person to the Daoist temple and asked them questions.

Lu Qingfeng laughed and said, "I was originally a Green Bamboo in Black Wind Mountain, growing by a pool. My wife Ao Le, was a carp in the pool. By chance, we were blessed by heaven and earth, and both of us cultivated into human form and attained Immortal Dao."

"I see."

"What a wonderful fortune!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yaozi breathed a sigh of relief.

He was not a disciple of a major immortal sect, nor was Ao Le from the South Sea Dragon Palace as he had originally guessed; he had only recently taken human form by fortuitous opportunity.

That makes them much easier to get along with.

The atmosphere is even more lively now.

He praised her repeatedly.

Then, Ji Yaozi sighed and said, "The Poison Dragon is troublesome. More than ten years ago, after passing through the Nine Great Heavenly Tribulations and transforming into a dragon, it gathered hundreds of small demons from the mountains and lived in the Poison Dragon Cave, causing quite a stir. This Poison Dragon is cruel and bloodthirsty, and it is also born with a lustful nature. Whenever it goes down the mountain, it either captures people to eat or captures beautiful women to bring up the mountain for its own pleasure."

As a result, the surrounding area, spanning hundreds of miles, was almost deserted, with only a few houses left. While I was in Black Wind City, the Poison Dragon was somewhat wary of me, but Black Wind Mountain was too dangerous for me to venture up rashly, so we remained in a stalemate. This time, the Poison Dragon seized the opportunity, ate several more people, and kidnapped the two sisters.

"If it weren't for your intervention, fellow Daoist, I would have been helpless."

Ji Yaozi possessed a rather compassionate and empathetic air.

He enjoyed the prosperity of the world and received offerings from the Tang Dynasty, and he was also dutiful in protecting Black Wind City. But after Zhou Quan, he was only one person, and facing the nineteen demon kings of Black Wind Mountain, he couldn't defend against too many of the villages, large and small, around the city.

"Fellow Daoist, do not underestimate yourselves."

"My wife and I Attainment of the Dao in Black Wind Mountain, but we cannot bear to see these demon kings wreaking havoc on the human world and committing needless killings. From now on, we will build a dwelling outside Black Wind Mountain to cultivate and restrain the demon kings."

"However, my wife and I are still inexperienced in cultivation, and we need your help."

Lu Qingfeng was determined to wait for the Way of Heaven Sect Master.

However, it is rumored that the cult leader is not a pure and innocent person.

Even before attaining enlightenment, he possessed ruthless and decisive methods. If he were operating in Black Wind Mountain as a demon king and were inexplicably killed, there would be no recourse.

It would be better to clear one's name.

When the Way of Heaven Sect Master, he was already the Gouchen Emperor. He certainly wouldn't kill this pure and kind demon immortal who was restraining the demon king from causing trouble.

As long as one can save their life and safely become a disciple, given the leader's protective nature, there is no need to worry about their life being in danger.

"That would be perfect!"

"That's exactly what we need to do—look out for each other and help each other!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yaozi was overjoyed.

He had witnessed Lu Qingfeng's strength and knew how formidable he was. With Guangyuanzi guarding the throat of Black Wind Mountain and restricting the Demon King's comings and goings, he could live a much more peaceful and secure life in Black Wind City.

After the joy.

Worried that this newly promoted demon immortal might be too reckless and become arrogant and complacent after fighting the Poison Dragon to a draw, thus losing his life in vain, he reminded him, "Although this Poison Dragon is strong, he has only been in dragon form for a little over ten years. Among the nineteen demon kings of Black Wind Mountain, he can only be ranked in the middle. There are five or six others who are comparable to him, and some who are even stronger than him."

Lu Qingfeng listened intently.

Ji Yaozi had been stationed in Black Wind City for many years and had dealt with many monsters from Black Wind Mountain. He knew the details of their affairs much better than Ji Yaozi did.

But Ji Yaozi said, "If you can fight the Poison Dragon to a draw, then the other demon kings will not be a threat as long as you deal with them carefully. The only one is the demon king in Returning Cloud Ravine, who is a three-tailed blackfish. He has obtained a celestial book and several Law Treasure. He has some Divine Ability and more than a thousand demon soldiers under his command. He is difficult to deal with."

When the topic of the Three-Tailed Blackfish came up, Ji Yaozi's expression turned serious.

The Three-Tailed Blackfish is the most powerful creature in Black Wind Mountain. It is a Primordial World species with immense strength, capable of splitting mountains and rocks. It is born with two extra tails that can transform into sharp claws and lives in the streams year-round.

Even before reaching adulthood, it used its two tails, which had transformed into sharp claws, to dig at the bottom of the ravine every day, trying to break through the Earth Lung and bring in underground river water so that it could obtain more food.

In Black Wind Mountain, it took a thousand years for it to develop sentience. One day, while tearing through the Earth Lung, it accidentally obtained a jade scroll of Daoist scriptures and several Law Treasure from the underground Yin River, and then began to cultivate diligently.

Although not as old as the Poison Dragon, with the correct cultivation methods and the assistance of Law Treasure, its cultivation level and strength are still above that of the Poison Dragon.

Especially its two extra tails, Divine Ability.

This blackfish has cultivated for thousands of years, and it is about to succeed in refining its two tails with its Primordial Spirit, turning them into clones. This is equivalent to having two more lives, which are even more exquisite and useful than the Second Primordial Spirit.

Ji Yaozi had fought with him several times, and the battles were usually evenly matched, so he was quite wary of him.
