Serpent Ancestor

Chapter 150: Two sides in battle, Xu Hei launches a sneak attack

The number of these demon kings was not less than the human Core Formation cultivators on the other side, and they also had an old demon at the mid-Golden Core stage leading them.

In terms of Foundation Establishment, the demonic beasts had twenty more.

Yin Mingzi said coldly, "Don't blame me for not warning you. This is a place the Heavenly Puppet Sect has designated for clearing. If you don't leave, when Qin Xuanji arrives in person, you won't be able to leave even if you want to!"

With these words, the demonic beasts looked at each other in dismay.

The Heavenly Puppet Sect was a powerful sect that had wiped out the entire Chu Kingdom, and its Grand Elder had the cultivation of Great Perfection in the Core Formation Stage, capable of defeating ten thousand troops alone.

As long as he took action, no demonic beast in this area could withstand him.

At this moment, the old demon at the mid-Golden Core stage stepped forward and snorted coldly, "Don't think I don't know. There are certain restrictions here for the people of the Heavenly Puppet Sect, am I right?"

Yin Mingzi's eyes flashed upon hearing this, and he said, "Restrictions, are you sure?"

"Hmph, my Stone Ape lineage has lived and thrived here for over ten thousand years. How could we not know some secrets?"

This old demon was an old monkey, so old that its skin was almost bald, its body hunched, yet its eyes were full of vigor and wisdom.

In truth, his words had no basis and were purely a guess based on past experiences.

In the Wu Mountain Range, all kinds of people had come, except for the experts of the Heavenly Puppet Sect. Even if they did come, it was just some juniors passing by.

He didn't believe in such a coincidence.

Especially this time, Qin Xuanji didn't come in person but sent another sect, without even a single elder from his own, which deepened his suspicion.

"Secrets? I'd like to know, what secrets?" Yin Mingzi was half-believing, half-doubting.

"No comment," the old monkey demon sneered.

This left Yin Mingzi in hesitation. He was here on orders, and if he didn't achieve something, it would be difficult for the Snake Catchers Sect to establish a foothold in the Qin Kingdom.

He also had his doubts about why Qin Xuanji didn't come personally.

He initially thought it was a test for the Snake Catchers Sect, but now it seemed not so simple.

"No need to waste words with these humans, just charge and kill them."

The Purple Lightning Lion King shouted coldly.

"No matter what sect, driving us out for thousands of miles is intolerable!"

"Kill! Kill all the humans."

"The territory is inviolable!"

The demonic beasts were not like humans who wanted to think things through; most of them had fiery tempers and could start a fight at the slightest disagreement.

Seeing that the old monkey demon did not stop them, a horned eagle flapped its wings, sending countless wind blades forward. The other great demons roared in anger, charging forward with overwhelming momentum.

Yin Mingzi's face turned ashen. Fighting was not impossible, but they were missing a team. The Mountain Movers Sect had some unknown incident and not a single person showed up, with no response to their communication talisman.

With the Mountain Movers Sect, their defensive capabilities would be greatly enhanced.

Seeing the other side charging, Yin Mingzi took out a large flag, which grew longer in the wind.

With a wave of his hand, countless snake demons were released from the flag, pouncing towards the demonic beast horde.

"Kill!"

With an order, everyone charged towards the demonic beast army, and the two sides quickly became entangled in a chaotic battle.

…………

On the outskirts of Wu Mountain.

Xu Hei used the Ever-changing Fish and Dragon technique, moving swiftly and leaving behind afterimages.

He practiced his body technique while traveling, and unknowingly, the Ever-changing Fish and Dragon showed signs of advancing to the third level.

At the second level, his speed greatly increased, allowing him to create afterimages.

At the third level, the afterimages could multiply into thousands, making the true body hard to find.

Currently, Xu Hei couldn't create thousands of afterimages, but making a dozen or so was no problem.

His speed was nearly invincible within the Foundation Establishment Stage, approaching that of a False Core cultivator using true essence. This was the domineering aspect of the dragon clan's body technique.

Of course, he couldn't use this body technique for long while traveling, as it consumed too much true qi.

After absorbing a large amount of spiritual vein energy, Xu Hei's cultivation reached eighty percent of the initial stage, very close to the middle stage.

With three dragon bones, Xu Hei's strength had increased tremendously, capable of easily shattering a top-tier second-grade magical treasure.

Unknowingly, Xu Hei had touched upon a legendary realm—

The Extreme Realm!

The Extreme Realm does not refer to a cultivation realm but a realm of strength.

The gap between the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Core Formation Stage was too large to cross, as it was the difference between true qi and true essence, which couldn't be bridged by mere techniques.

However, within the Foundation Establishment Stage, one could continuously enhance their strength until they could defeat those at the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Stage, achieving invincibility within the Foundation Establishment Stage.

And then surpass invincibility!

At that point, although still unable to contend with the Core Formation Stage, one would be infinitely close, reaching an extreme value.

Extreme represents the limit, beyond which there is no further enhancement.

This is the meaning of the Extreme Realm!

Throughout history, those who could reach the limit of strength within the Foundation Establishment Stage were few and far between. In ancient times, only a few with perfect Foundation Establishment, through great fortune, might achieve it.

In the context of history, to touch the Extreme Realm at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment, Xu Hei was not unique but certainly among the top.

In this era of scarce spiritual qi, where even perfect Foundation Establishment was rare, he was enough to dominate an era.

Before long, Xu Hei arrived at his destination.

Before even reaching the location indicated on the map, Xu Hei sensed various battle fluctuations coming from all directions.

Fights were happening everywhere.

"Sure enough, they've started fighting."

Xu Hei stopped using the Ever-changing Fish and Dragon technique and instead applied the Invisibility Talisman, using the Earth Escape Technique to burrow underground and advance stealthily.

As Man Yin had said, the demonic beast clans had united to resist the humans, and the area was divided into several battle zones.

The Ape Tribe and Eagle Tribe were fighting the Snake Catchers Sect.

The Elephant Tribe was battling the Carefree Sect.

The Lion Tribe was confronting the Tai Xuan Sect.

The Snake Tribe was fighting some ancient cultivation families.

Besides these five main forces, there were also some other minor demon clans participating in the battle.

Xu Hei roughly observed that the demonic beast side seemed to have the upper hand, with two more Golden Core great demons and twenty more Foundation Establishment great demons.

However, the humans had numerous magical treasures, endless techniques, and pills, talismans, and formations, which the demonic beasts lacked.

Additionally, the humans coordinated more seamlessly, supporting each other to achieve a synergy greater than the sum of their parts, while the demonic beasts fought individually.

Moreover, the humans were not fighting desperately, holding back in their attacks.

For the time being, the situation was at a stalemate.

"The Five Great Sects of the Southern Region are all here, except for the Mountain Movers Sect."

Xu Hei speculated that the Mountain Movers Sect had been annihilated two days ago, and these people probably didn't know yet.

Judging by their complaints, they were indeed unaware of the annihilation.

Xu Hei's figure flickered as he moved towards the battlefield between the Elephant Tribe and the Carefree Sect.

The Elephant Tribe excelled in strength, nearly invincible in frontal combat, but the Carefree Sect members all had Swift Wind Talismans, using agile body techniques and long-range spells to maneuver.

The Carefree Sect was the one from whom he had stolen the Spirit-Tail Chicken.

That day, Elder Zhou, who had chased the old dog all the way, was also present and had broken through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, proving to be quite talented.

"Let's start with you!"

Xu Hei's eyes flashed as he burrowed to the rear of the crowd, targeting his objective, and with a thought.

"Mountain Embrace Seal!"

Through visualization, a grand mountain quickly formed above Elder Zhou, crashing down with immense force.

The current Mountain Embrace Seal was countless times stronger than when Xu Hei had first used it!

"Watch out!"

"We're under attack!"

The crowd shouted from behind, and Zhou Xu's expression changed as he rapidly retreated, only to see the mountain crashing down onto a giant light formation, causing it to shake and crack.

This was a defensive formation set up by the Tai Xuan Sect.

The Tai Xuan Sect excelled in formations, providing each team with one for protection, crucial for survival, showcasing the coordination among humans.
