The Desire for Victory, Peachwood Staff

Chapter 265 of Qing: The finest delicacies in the world come from Purple Jade. The three of them, Black-and-White Daoist Qiu Li, did not expect that after playing tricks on them, the old Daoist would actually show the demeanor of a senior and teach them magic and supernatural powers.

This Heaven and Earth in the Sleeve is a very useful spell!

Even Hong Yun's anger had dissipated, and she now found the old Daoist priest rather endearing! Although his temperament was somewhat wicked, his virtues outweighed his flaws!

So, after learning the old Universe in Sleeve, Qingqiu Li cooked a dish for him to accompany her wine, saying, "Actually, when it comes to culinary skills, Ziyu Purple Jade Mountain is the most authentic. There's Little Chef on Purple Jade Mountain whose skills are a thousand times better than mine. Compared to her, my skills are only superficial. It's no exaggeration to say that 'all the best food in the world comes from Purple Jade.'"

Upon hearing this, Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi glanced at Qingqiu Li, wanting to advise her to be careful and not lead the old man to Purple Jade Mountain, causing trouble for their A Chu. But then they obediently shut their mouths, lest they offend this Long-Brow Old Daoist with a somewhat wicked temper.

Upon hearing this, the Long-Brow Old Daoist raised his eyebrows and said with some disbelief, "All the delicacies in the world come from Purple Jade. Little Nüwa, don't try to fool this old Daoist. In this Primordial Land, this old Daoist has been to many places, but the name Purple Jade Mountain is completely unheard of."

"Senior, have you ever been to my Qingqiu?" Qingqiu Li smiled faintly.

Then the Long-Brow Old Daoist priest burst into laughter. Just when Qingqiu Li thought the Long-Brow Old Daoist would be speechless after what she said, the old Daoist priest said, "Speaking of which, before you took Transformation Form, I did visit Qingqiu. When I saw you before you took human Transformation Form, it really made me sigh with emotion! Hehe, haha..."

Perhaps he was thinking of something delightful, for the old Daoist priest began to laugh uncontrollably.

Although the old Daoist didn't express any sighs or lamentations, it made Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi somewhat suspicious of the origins of Qingqiu Li, the Qingqiu Fox Ancestor.

Speaking of which, this Fox Ancestress is even more ancient than them, having taken Transformation Form at the end of the Era of Ferocious Beasts, and it is unknown how many tens of thousands of years have passed since then.

It is said that many Fierce Beasts or divine beasts in the Era of Ferocious Beasts were reborn from the remnants of Primordial Chaos beings. Perhaps the previous life of this Fox Ancestress was a Primordial Chaos being.

So, what about this old Daoist priest?

Was he a remnant of Primordial Chaos being reborn, or was he himself Primordial Chaos being?

Back in Purple Jade Mountain, they had discussed this matter with Wu Chu and Nuwa. When asked about the original body of the avatar enshrined on Purple Jade Mountain, Wu Chu shook his head cryptically, saying it was unspeakable, suggesting that the predecessor might also be Primordial Chaos being. This also implies that there are still surviving Primordial Chaos beings in this era.

Enjoying the delicious barbecue that Qingqiu Li had grilled for him and the spiritual wine provided by Hong Yun, the Long-Brow Old Daoist stretched contentedly and finally asked, "Where is Purple Jade Mountain located?"

"It's right next to my Qingqiu..."

On the other side, the Divine Ability Tournament of the Houtu Tribe has ended. Kua Cheng successfully obtained the Supreme-Grade Witch Artifact, the Peachwood Staff, and the other High-Grade Witch Artifact have also found their respective owners.

The Hunting Tournament has reached its final moments in full swing.

On this day, as the Hunting Tournament was about to end, Wu Chu and several Ancestral Witch came to the scene to watch the competition and see what prey the warriors had brought back.

They sat atop the clouds, watching the Witch Clan Warrior in the mountains below...

Suddenly, Wu Chu's expression shifted, and he frowned slightly, saying, "Brothers, it seems an uninvited guest has arrived. I must go and see."

Houtu glanced at him and asked, "What happened? Has someone visited Purple Jade Mountain?"

The other Ancestral Witch also looked at Wu Chu.

Wu Chu shook his head and said, "It's not Purple Jade Mountain, it's Myriad Crows Mountain. Someone broke the formation I set up there, so they must be no ordinary person."

Ordinary people wouldn't easily venture into a place like Myriad Crows Mountain, where death pervades.

"I will go with you!" Houtu said.

Wu Chu nodded, and then the Ancestral Witch said, "Since it's Myriad Crows Mountain, it's not that far. Why don't we all go together!"

Houtu nodded and said, "Big Brother has the Spatial Transposition Technique. With Big Brother here, we can get there as quickly as possible."

So Wu Chu led the twelve members of the Witch Clan to Myriad Crows Mountain.

On the Myriad Crows Mountain, shrouded in boundless deathly aura, a strangely dressed Daoist priest appeared. His long hair was half white and half black, and his Daoist robe was also half white and half black, parted in the middle, with a clear distinction between black and white. Even his eyes were half white and half black.

Such a peculiar appearance in this Primordial Land... After witnessing the Twelve Ancestral Witches' flamboyant and outlandish style, seeing this kind of attire isn't really that strange.

It should be known that there are quite a few strange and peculiar creatures on this Primordial Land.

After the Daoist priest arrived, the black crows formed from death energy, quite tactlessly, formed Ten Thousand Crows Formation, trying to frighten him.

But the Daoist priest merely chuckled and pointed a finger at the giant raven's black beak. Instantly, the giant raven dissipated, and countless black crows fell from the sky, scattering into wisps of black mist.

Before long, he found the White Bone Cave in the mountains, went inside, and the array that Wu Chu had set up at the entrance was directly broken by his finger.

It was at this moment that Wu Chu began to sense something.

After searching around the cave, the Daoist broke through the array that Wu Chu had set up there and saw the Black Coffin and the Nine-Aperture Stone in the middle of the array.

"What is this?" The old Daoist priest looked at the Black Coffin and muttered to himself, "It's actually a Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure that autonomously absorbs death energy. Quite interesting..."

As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed the Black Coffin.

Just then, a figure emerged from the Black Coffin, bowed to the old Daoist priest, and said, "This junior Mountain Recluse Who Never Leaves, greets senior..."

"Heh, it's just a small clone..."

Before the words were finished, the Black Coffin moved, transforming into a streak of dark light and rushing out of the cave.

"Where are you going?!"

The old Daoist snorted coldly, reached out and grabbed at the dark light.

Outside Wanya Mountain, Wu Chu and ten Ancestral Witches suddenly appeared. This was because the Ancestral Witch Di Jiang used his spatial teleportation technique to quickly move them over; otherwise, they certainly wouldn't have made it in time.

It should be noted that when Wu Chu was still at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, it took him more than half a year to travel from Purple Jade Mountain to Myriad Crows Mountain, even though he made several stops along the way.

Even with his current Golden Immortal Realm cultivation level, if he didn't stop and used his fastest escape technique to get here, it would definitely be impossible in less than a few days.

This demonstrates the speed of Spatial Transposition Technique.

Just as they appeared, Wu Chu sensed that the old Daoist priest wanted to take the Black Coffin away, so he activated the Black Coffin's power.

Just as the old Daoist priest reached out with his claw towards the Black Coffin, the Black Coffin lid suddenly opened, and boundless death energy surged out of the Black Coffin, rushing towards the claw shadow like a tide.

But the claw shadow directly dispersed the tide of death energy and still headed towards the Black Coffin.

However, the death energy slightly slowed down the speed of the claw shadow. Two Merit Divine Chains extended from Wu Chu's body and rushed towards the White Bone Cave, shooting towards the claw shadow like lightning.

When...

The Merit Divine Chains barely managed to block the claw shadow from grabbing the Black Coffin.

White Bone Cave, the old Daoist priest swept his wide sleeves, causing the tide of deathly energy that was rushing towards him to roll back. He frowned slightly and looked out of the cave.
