Stealing the Heavens.

Chapter 86 The Purple Qi from the East Causes Trouble
"Lord Liu, how is things in Jinshi City now?!" Zi Dong was also very worried about the Demon Hunter Group in Jinshi City. He quickly asked after Liu Moqing finished making the call.

"Thankfully," Liu Moqing breathed a sigh of relief, still shaken. "The demon spirits didn't act rashly, and there were no losses in the city!"

"Lord Liu, it seems that the demon, monster, and witch races are still taking good care of you, preventing the demon spirits from wreaking havoc on Jinshi City!"

Zi Dong looked at Liu Moqing meaningfully. He had been probing to see what the relationship between Jinshi City and the three races of demons, monsters, and witches had reached.

"After all, Jinshi City is the largest buyer of refined gold in the Falling Gold Mountains. What benefit would it bring to the demon, monster, and witch races to cause chaos in Jinshi City?"

Liu Moqing nodded in agreement. He was simply doing business with the Luojin Mountains; there was nothing to hide.

"Liu Moqing, you finally admit to colluding with the demon, monster, and witch races!" Feng Qingwu immediately slapped a huge accusation on him.

“Young Miss, Jinshi City only has business dealings with Luojin Mountain Range. I am also making money for the Feng family!”

Although Liu Moqing was furious, he didn't dare show it, but he still dragged the Feng family into it.

"Hmph, when I get back this time, I'll make the Feng family withdraw from the business in the Falling Gold Mountains!" Feng Qingwu snorted coldly.

Liu Moqing actually accused the Feng family of colluding with the demons, and she absolutely couldn't let the Feng family get any deeper into trouble.

"The demon spirit is here!" Just as Liu Moqing was about to explain that if the Feng family withdrew, even Jinshi City might not be his anymore, Zhou Xinyu suddenly shouted.

Everyone quickly looked up, but because it was a protective shield set up by the elders, the members of the Demon Hunter Team did not dare to use their divine sense to investigate.

The crescent moon was completely obscured by dark clouds, making the Fallen Gold Mountains even darker, which made the elders' protective shield look like a large moon.

The protective shield, which had been as calm as a lake, suddenly began to ripple, revealing a series of dark shadows that then disappeared into the darkness in a disheveled state.

Sikong Bo observed for a while with a solemn expression, then quickly rushed out of the protective shield and angrily punched the dark void.

They directly slammed those vanished demon spirits back out, but they quickly disappeared into the darkness in an even more disheveled state.

Sikong Bo could only deplete the power of these demon spirits, but could not kill them directly, which was precisely what made them so troublesome.

Because demons and ghosts are similar and can merge into the world, even if one mobilizes the power of the soul, most of it will be neutralized by the demon.

[Consuming 100 points of Rank 9 Luck allows you to devour one demon spirit; consuming 10,000 points of Rank 9 Luck allows you to devour all demon spirits.]

The purple aura from the east had actually awakened and was trying to devour the demon spirit, but Zi Dong ignored it; he wanted to observe it further.

Ten thousand points of ninth-grade luck can devour all demon spirits, which means there are 100 demon spirits here. I don't know if they are all the demon spirits in the Falling Gold Mountain Range.

Soon, no more demon spirits were attacking the protective shield in the area where Sikong Bo was located; they all ran to the other side.

Sikong Bo relentlessly pursued, but he was no match for the demon spirit's speed, and in the end, he had to mobilize spatial power.

Because the demon spirit has lost its physical body, it has also lost its spatial dimension, but it is still familiar with the power of space.

Although he cannot compare to Sikong Bo, who possesses spatial abilities, he is still able to resolve conflicts by drawing upon the power of heaven and earth due to his familiarity with spatial power.

Sikong Bo chased after the demon spirits for a long time but failed to kill a single one. In the end, he had no choice but to return to the protective shield in frustration and sit down next to Zi Dong.

"Master Sikong, if demon spirits can be easily killed, then no one will be afraid of them!" Liu Moqing seized the opportunity to mock.

Sikong Bo doesn't get many chances to suffer a setback, so we must seize this opportunity to strike him down, otherwise we won't be able to vent our anger. "Hmph, demon spirits don't have physical bodies, so their recovery will be very slow. We'll wear them down sooner or later!"

Sikong Bo didn't care about Liu Moqing's sarcasm. Instead, he explained that what the guy said was true.

"Master, the demon, monster, and witch races have returned!" An elder on patrol flew back quickly and shouted from outside the protective barrier.

"It really was a conspiracy by the three races!" Sikong Bo leaped up and roared angrily at the demon spirits that were still attacking the protective shield.

"Master, the Qi Luck Spiritual Root has awakened and can devour these demonic spirits," Zi Dong quickly stood up and said.

"Then what are we waiting for?!" Sikong Bo glared angrily at Zi Dong. Did he really need to ask him for permission for such a great thing?

Zi Dong immediately channeled 10,000 points of ninth-grade luck into the main vein, allowing the purple energy from the east to quickly devour the demon spirits so that he could focus all his efforts on dealing with the demon, monster, and witch races.

The purple mist surged forth immediately, completely ignoring the protective shield set up by the elders, and the sky above the mountain was instantly filled with purple mist.

One by one, demonic spirits appeared in Zi Dong's consciousness, some in human form and some in beast form, struggling silently and fleeing in all directions.

Exactly one hundred, all of them were swallowed up by the purple mist in the blink of an eye, and then immediately returned to Zi Dong's body.

[The auspicious purple energy from the east needs to slumber again. Each awakening requires 10,000 points of luck from each of the first to ninth grades.]

"Damn it!" Zi Dong, who was excited about gaining more than 20,000 points of ninth-grade luck, cursed loudly, leaving the shocked crowd bewildered.

"What's wrong?!" Feng Qingwu quickly asked. Zi Dong had never sworn and had always been very cheerful.

"My Qi and spiritual root have fallen asleep again!" Zi Dong sighed and sat down on the ground. The purple Qi from the east had been playing tricks on him all along.

"Do we still need 10,000 points of luck from each of the first to ninth grades?!" Feng Qingwu had always believed that Zi Dong was cheating people out of luck.

"Next time, I'll make sure the Qi Luck Spiritual Root only devours one demon at a time!" Zi Dong shouted through gritted teeth.

“Then you’ll definitely get eaten by other demons!” Zhou Xinyu immediately retorted to Zi Dong.

If there is no crisis and no need for the Qi Luck and Spiritual Root to intervene, what should be done if one is devoured and the rest are left?
Zi Dong glanced at Zhou Xinyu with a wry smile. Of course he understood this principle, but if a spiritual root absorbs too much luck, it will fall into a deep sleep. When faced with another crisis, where would he get so much luck to awaken it?
"Everyone, immediately board the flying boats and head to Jinshi City!" Sikong Bo glanced at Zi Dong and immediately gave the order.

"Master, shouldn't we wipe out the demon, monster, and witch races?!" Feng Qingwu asked in surprise.

"It's unclear whether there are any demons or spirits remaining in the Fallen Gold Mountains. We'll rest in Golden Stone City and investigate before we come back to deal with the demon, monster, and witch races!"

Sikong Bo explained briefly, then immediately urged everyone to board the flying boat and head towards the Luojin Mountains at full speed.

He was worried that the demon spirit would reappear, and he didn't know if the dormant Qi Luck Spirit Root could still be devoured.

The demon, monster, and witch races rushed back from the east and west sides, while there were no cultivators from the three races in the north and south. A dozen or so flying boats rushed directly out of the Falling Gold Mountain Range.

When they arrived at Jinshi City, it was already dawn. The protective array was still activated, and the city walls were full of patrolling cultivators.

The demon, monster, and witch races did not pursue them. Sikong Bo directed the flying boat to land at the city gate and instructed Liu Moqing to contact the city immediately.

[Consuming 100 points of Ninth-Rank Luck allows you to devour demonic spirits above the city gates; consuming 1000 points of Ninth-Rank Luck allows you to devour demonic spirits flying towards the Falling Gold Mountains.]
