With a soft whistle, Miqiluo's fingertips swept across the air like a dragon in motion, sending out golden Sword-Ray that instantly transformed into sharp sword beams.
Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! The Sword Qi darted through the air, smashing the giant fox's head before flying through the air like dragons, whistling and circling back and forth.
Upon seeing this technique of "transforming talismans into swords," He Ping immediately thought of the whereabouts of the other three volumes of the Cave Abyss Sect's < Supreme Cave Abyss Divine Incantation Scripture >, namely the three grades of killing ghosts, banning ghosts, and slaying ghosts.
Legend has it that these three Ghost-Slaying Techniques were acquired by a swordsman of exceptional talent and skill. This swordsman painstakingly spent decades combining the three scrolls of Ghost Killing Chapter, Ghost Prohibition Chapter, and Ghost Slashing Chapter Techniques with his own Hundred-Step Flying Sword technique, creating a unique technique that integrates both magic and swordsmanship: < Ghost Slashing Flying Qi>.
" Miqiluo is actually a successor of the < Ghost Slashing Flying Qi > technique. The Eastern Esoteric School is quite capable, even recruiting a master like him who has inherited the < Ghost Slashing Flying Qi > technique!"
He Ping was slightly surprised to see this.
" Ghost Slashing Flying Qi..."
A strange, eerie voice rang out.
"It must have been sixty years since I've seen this move? So this sword Swordsmanship hasn't been lost after all?"
He Ping was also taken aback when he heard this. He looked up and saw the beast head that had dispersed like smoke immediately gather back together, and the huge fox head reappeared in the air. The demon's eyes were blood-red, and it spoke human words from its mouth.
"You brat, what are you to Yuan Weiting of the Iron Enclosure City of Mount Haoli?"
The sound carried a subtle vibration, which, after a moment, reached the ears of everyone present, making them dizzy and causing their internal organs to Qi and Blood. They couldn't help but retreat in unison, their eyes filled with horror as they looked at the giant fox head.
"Demons! Demons!"
!"
"What kind of monster is this?"
A look of fear and unease flickered in everyone's eyes.
"Old monster, do you think I'll tell you just because you asked?"
Miqiluo's Qi and Blood surged wildly, and he roared. As he pointed his sword finger, the Sword Qi swirling in the air howled repeatedly, sweeping in like a storm, or spiraling together like an angry dragon, before finally crashing down on the fox beast.
"Hahahaha! Even if Yuan Weiting came, he might not be able to gain any advantage in front of me, the Heart Fox Patriarch. How could your Xuan Yin Dark Yin Ghost-Slaying Talisman, with its meager skill, possibly do anything to me, the Old Ancestor!"
!"
The fox opened its gaping maw, and a black hole-like vortex quickly formed within its opening. An immense suction force emanated from the center of the vortex, drawing in hundreds of Sword Qi. Suddenly, everyone present felt a tremor in their souls, as if they were about to be pulled out of their bodies and sucked into the vortex.
"Don't even try!"
Miqiluo roared, "With your cultivation level, Heart Fox Old Devil, if your true form were to come to this realm, I would have no choice but to retreat. But this is merely a thought or an avatar of yours. What am I afraid of?!"
He raised his sword in a gesture, pointed it into the air, and began chanting a spell rapidly.
"I'm humming, I'm humming, I'm humming!"
This is the sixteen-character secret incantation of the Daoist sect. When these sixteen characters are recited, the hundreds of Sword Qi that the fox sucked into its wide-open mouth explode violently, bursting open like gunpowder.
Boom!
A plume of orange-red cloud, the size of half an acre of land, rose violently from the poplar grove.
In the sky, the beast head of the Heart Fox Old Devil was instantly blasted apart, and with the sweeping wind, the entire forest was instantly filled with flying sand and stones.
Immediately after the explosion, a voice echoed in the void.
"You successor of Yuan Weiting, how dare you harm my clone! I will remember your soul!"
"Pah! So be it, you old monster, do you still have the ability to crawl out of the Abyssal Realm?"
Miqiluo muttered something under her breath, and breathed a sigh of relief.
'It seems the Scent of the Fragrance Sect has truly colluded with the Heaven-Maze Alliance of the Abyssal Realm. The Heart Fox Patriarch is one of the Seven Sky-Deluding Saints; these demons are truly lawless, even colluding with demons. No wonder the Prince sent me here!'
The Heart Fox Old Devil is quite capable, but unfortunately this is not the Abyssal Realm. Only a clone projection was implanted into this box. No matter how powerful this great demon's clone projection is, its strength is ultimately limited, which is why it was restrained by his Dark Yin Ghost-Slaying Talisman.
"Brother Moxiuluo."
Miqiluo let out a soft sigh.
"Regarding the items you seized from the Fragrance Sect, I only want the gold and silver, and only half of them. I know it's difficult for you to make this decision alone. How about this: you discuss it with Lord Indaluo and see if he agrees. I don't want to make things difficult for you, my brother."
"Good!"
Hearing this, He Ping didn't mind. He turned around and jumped into the carriage, using the Coiled Dragon Jade Pendant to contact his "boss," Indaluo, and explained that gold and silver treasures had been unearthed in Crimson Flow Fort, and that Miqiluo had come to demand them.
" The Fragrance Sect has colluded with that Heart Fox Patriarch? And that Miqiluo is asking you for gold and silver?"
Indaluo was also taken aback after hearing this.
"I see... It seems there have been some changes in the Mobei? I understand now. Miqiluo only wants gold and silver. How much does he want?"
He said he wanted 50%.
He Ping answered honestly.
"That means half of it. Okay, you give him 70%, and you keep the remaining 20% for yourself."
Indaluo said calmly.
"I knew the Northern Pass Circuit was short of money, but I didn't expect it to be this serious. Listen carefully, this man is quite powerful. Give him 70%, saying it was your idea. Knowing his character, he'll definitely remember it; consider it a favor he owes you. You should know that a favor from a master cultivator is extraordinary. If anything goes wrong later, you can use this favor as an excuse to ask him for help. He definitely won't refuse. This isn't a bad thing for you, understand?"
"Understood, sir."
He Ping's mind raced for a moment, then he smiled slightly and stepped down from the carriage.
"Brother Miqiluo, I've reached an agreement with Lord Indaluo. Lord Indaluo has instructed me to allocate eighty percent of this fortune to you. The goods are all here; you can take them as you see fit!"
Upon hearing this, Miqiluo rubbed his hands together, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Then I'm really troubling you, brother. I need to move my things; could you also give me these carriages?"
"That's easy."
He Ping chuckled, flicked his sleeves, and told his men to pack up their things.
"Brother, you're a really straightforward person. I owe you a favor this time."
Miqiluo cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
He was a highly skilled cultivator; He Ping's conversation with Indaluo while hiding in the carriage had not escaped his notice.
Indaluo said he would get 70%, but He Ping deliberately gave him an extra 10%. He remembered this detail and naturally felt grateful for He Ping's "kindness"!
However, He Ping also had his own considerations. First of all, these valuables were not something he urgently needed. He didn't actually contribute much to the siege of Crimson Flow Fort and the elimination of the Fragrance Sect's stronghold in Jinhe Prefecture. The real experts he encountered were all dealt with by the Five-Colored Wealth Gods. He was just following behind and picking up the scraps.
"It was merely Lord Indaluo's order."
He Ping smiled and shook his head, "By the way, what exactly is that metal box? Has Brother Miqiluo checked it?"
"Oh, I almost forgot about the important matter."
Miqiluo pointed a finger, and streaks of Sword Qi cleaved through the sky, striking the box like bolts of lightning. In an instant, the Sword Qi, capable of slicing through gold and jade, swept across the box, shattering it into pieces and revealing a dark, jade-like stone—obsidian—with a Buddha statue carved on it.
"It's this thing?!"
He Ping was somewhat taken aback; he had never expected that the Fragrance Sect would keep such a thing in their storeroom. He also possessed a piece of this obsidian Buddha statue, which he had obtained from the Mud Sect. However, why would the Fragrance Sect also possess this Black Stone Buddha Statue?
