Chapter 169: Medicine King Valley[Medicine King Valley]
It was a valley filled with the songs of birds and the fragrance of flowers. Even in the depths of winter, the heavy snow couldn't penetrate the protective formations of Medicine King Valley.
Spiritual energy swirled like mist, and the scent of medicinal herbs could be detected from miles away.
In this beautiful valley, a stark contrast to the snow-covered winter landscape outside, the grand formations were activated.
Because outside the gates... a group of strange people had appeared. They were calmly setting up an altar in front of Medicine King Valley, placing a bronze cauldron upon it. They were performing an ancestral sacrifice!
The alchemists and potion masters of Medicine King Valley gathered, their numerous retainers taking to the skies on their flying swords. This force, dedicated to aiding the world, was even more formidable than the Su family the Li family had faced before. Yet, even so, as they observed the surging demonic energy and the rising sword auras outside their gates, they remained on high alert.
Suddenly, the people of Medicine King Valley parted to create a path.
The Valley Master of Medicine King Valley was an exceptionally beautiful woman, dressed in a long flowing robe, like a flower fairy. She was known in the martial world as the Divine Healer. Behind her stood Elder Qiuye of the Skyveil Sect and Xiao Huang'er!
It was unclear what had happened to Xiao Huang'er, but half of her hair had turned white, although her appearance remained unchanged.
There was also something different about her, She was pregnant!
"The Li family!" Upon seeing the eight people outside Medicine King Valley, Elder Qiuye's expression changed drastically. He had clearly taken Xiao Huang'er into hiding, yet the Li family had still found them and blocked their exit!
"Qiuye, kill them! Go and kill them! Avenge my children!"
The moment she saw the Li family members, the pregnant Xiao Huang'er went into a frenzy. Pointing at the people outside the gate, her magical power surged, and her Phoenix Dharma Body materialized.
However, Elder Qiuye remained motionless, his gaze darting about, his eyes filled with fear.
For seven years, the Azure Cloud region had been relentlessly
[Acquired Trait: Symbiotic Beings]
[The seven individuals each inherited a portion of the Blood Frenzy Demon Lord's undying and indestructible ability. Divided amongst them, they only gained the power of rapid recovery. As long as their magical power remains, they can fight endlessly. The seven are one body; as long as one remains alive, all seven will exist.]
This was the current state of the Seven Ironclad, possessing the complete inheritance of the Blood Frenzy Demon Lord. This was also the reason why, two months ago, they were able to withstand the siege of three Golden Core cultivators until Li Yaozu arrived to rescue them!
Indeed, for those at the False Core Formation stage, Golden Soul cultivators were an insurmountable obstacle. But...
What if those False Core Formation cultivators were indestructible and wielded Earth-grade techniques and top-grade Spirit Weapons?
In fact, the Seven Ironclad had even greater potential than the Blood Frenzy Demon Lord. If the Demon Lord, alone, were sealed away, it would be the end of him. But the Seven Sons were scattered in seven different locations. By self-destructing, they could be reborn where their brothers were.
Even though the Seven Sons had become demon cultivators, a trace of clarity remained in their eyes. Perhaps this was the benefit of the seven of them sharing and diluting the demonic nature of the Blood Frenzy Demon Lord.
Having set up the altar, under the watchful eyes of everyone in Medicine King Valley, they knelt and bowed towards the ancestral tablets led by Li Yaozu.
Li Yaozu unfastened his sword case and placed it beside him, causing dust and smoke to billow from the ground.
Both he and the Seven Ironclad offered three incense sticks to their ancestors and one to Old Pig.
Unlike Li Dalong, Li Yaozu didn't offer any formal sacrificial speech.
"Ancestor, only your child and these seven demon-influenced nephews are present here. Please bestow your blessings upon us, grant the descendants of the Li family victory in this battle, and avenge Old Pig! Your child will surely bring back the enemy's head!"
Watching the eight members of the Li family, uncles and nephews, kowtow, the people of Medicine King Valley were once again filled with fear and also a sense of... shame and indignation!
"You Li family members are truly audacious!"
Yao Xian'er was furious. A celestial lotus floated in the air as she glared at the people who were performing their ancestral sacrifice, completely disregarding Medicine King Valley. "I was kind-hearted," she declared, "yet you show me no respect and persist in your delusion! Do you truly believe that my Medicine King Valley fears your Li family?"
Li Yaozu seemed not to have heard her.
He simply tapped his sword case, and in an instant, swords erupted from within like a fountain, shooting toward the sky. The sound of clanging swords nearly drowned out all other noises in Medicine King Valley as countless swords continued to soar through the air!
These swords, like a rainbow shimmering with the glint of steel, formed an arc between the altar and Medicine King Valley ahead!
Li Yaozu, along with the Seven Ironclad, slowly rose to their feet. He casually picked up the ancestral tablet, his eyes flashing with sword-like sharpness as he gazed at the dense crowd within Medicine King Valley.
He tucked the ancestral tablet into his inner robe, kicked off the ground with his right foot, and charged toward Medicine King Valley alongside the myriad of swords!
"May the ancestors protect this child and grant me the power to slaughter everyone in Medicine King Valley!"
