Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 126, Part 125: Reaching the Top of the Azure Cloud Ranking, the Broken Jade Suppresses Fortune
Yuwen Guangchao was dominating Hu Yifei and Xia Xing, displaying his prowess, but when he turned around, he saw that his two teammates had been eliminated in the blink of an eye.

Enraged, he ignored Hu Yifei, this troublesome third wheel, merged with the Shadow Moon Demon Wolf, and roared to the sky.

'Wolves howling in the moonlight'.

The sky instantly darkened, and then a phantom full moon appeared behind him, as if it were about to fall on everyone's heads. A powerful sonic attack swept in all directions, and Xia Xing was the first to succumb, covering his ears and retreating.

"Wolf Soul, come out!"

Yuwen Guang roared, and a colossal creature over five meters tall stepped out from the illusory full moon behind him. It also roared and bared its teeth to assist him in the attack.

It is the 'Demon Wolf Battle Spirit'.

The man and the wolf charged at Li Chunfeng together.

"Your opponent is me!"

Hu Yifei knew he couldn't win, but the more the enemy wanted to do something, the more desperately he should stop them. Relying on his innate sacred body and the powerful defensive enhancement of the small golden body dharma form he had cultivated through the "Present Tathagata Sutra," he stood firm and fiercely resisted Yuwen Guangchao.

Li Chunfeng chuckled, pointed his finger, and a silver battle intent entity appeared.

The sixteen-foot-tall avatar, like an external incarnation, wielded a third-tier fire-blade holy sword, walking on the moon, and slashed at the demonic wolf battle spirit with a single sword strike.

He then waved his hand, and countless blood-red tadpoles appeared out of thin air, quickly growing eyes and teeth. After flicking their tails a few times, they shot out and flew towards She Gongjie.

Then it disappeared again.

'Blood God's Soul Weapon!'

"What method is this?"

It looks extremely evil.

It's fortunate that She Gongjie is a man; if he were a woman, she might have been traumatized by such an evil attack.

Therefore, although She Gongjie was surprised, he still defended and dodged with great combat skills, raised his psychic shield, and blocked the impact of a large number of blood god soldiers tadpoles.

Then he took off on his sword, his movements becoming so tight and impenetrable that his entire body was covered in smoke.

If it were a normal method, parrying with a sword would be the correct procedure. However, he overlooked the strange nature of the Blood God Child's Soul Weapon. Even if these tadpoles were cut into several pieces, they would strangely merge with the other Blood God Child's remains in the next instant, forming a brand new blood-red tadpole that attached itself to his psychic shield, opened its fine, sharp teeth, and began to gnaw at it with a "crunching" sound.

In just a few moments, his psychic shield was shattered.

She Gongjie's expression changed, and just as he was about to switch his defensive tactics, Li Chunfeng's attacks continued relentlessly.

That patch of Blood God Child was merely a prelude to an attack, a slight test of their strength.

As for the effect... it's passable, but upon closer examination, it does damage his image as a righteous and noble master.

The moment he raised his axe again, the sky stirred with a sudden change of direction, and the wind and clouds shifted. A phantom image of an ancient and desolate broken platform, hundreds of feet tall, appeared out of thin air, as if it had violated the laws of heaven. She Gongjie was enveloped by the imposing power of this broken platform and felt fear in his heart.

His greatest value lay in the Soul-Dispelling Insects, but Li Chunfeng easily thwarted his scheme with a single, open move, rendering them ineffective. Furthermore, his other abilities were far inferior to Li Chunfeng's, and he knew he couldn't withstand the attack.

"team leader!"

"Little snake!"

At this moment, it's a two-way journey.

Despite taking a punch from Hu Yifei, Yuwen Guangchao used a technique that moved in an instant, transforming into a crescent moon and arriving in a flash.

With a howl to the sky, he activated 'Wolf Berserk'.

His body suddenly grew to more than three times its normal size, greatly increasing his strength and defense for a short period. This spell also caused his muscles to swell and his skin to harden like iron, significantly enhancing his attack power; it was a powerful skill for close-quarters combat.

However, the consumption was too great, and even with his abilities, he could only sustain it for sixty breaths.

This move was originally a trump card, reserved for the final battle. Because once used, it would cause him to fall into a state of weakness and backlash.

But now we have no choice but to use it.

Although She Gongjie is incompetent, he has a reason to survive.

Once She Gongjie is eliminated by Li Chunfeng, it means that the Lantern Ghost will be unsealed.

This is unacceptable.

Li Chunfeng's 'Chaotic Ancient Guillotine' had already fallen, and Yuwen Guangchao bravely swung his fist, forcefully clashing against the Heavenly Law's guillotine.

The fist clashed with the axe, producing a resounding clang of metal against metal.

The energy shockwave spread out like a blast of air.

The two sides clashed head-on, resulting in a stalemate.

Li Chunfeng was surprised. He had unleashed his ultimate move while having the upper hand, and with the added boost of 'Thousand-Jin Power' and his own immense physical strength, it was only a draw... No, his opponent had acted hastily, while Li Chunfeng had been accumulating power for a long time. In reality, Li Chunfeng's strength was slightly weaker.

This clearly demonstrates the strength of the opponent.

As expected, there's no doubt that they made it to the finals.

Li Chunfeng was not known for his strength and did not take minor setbacks seriously. He would not launch a reckless attack. Just as Yuwen Guangchao was about to muster his remaining strength to fight Li Chunfeng again, his figure disappeared once more.

Yuwen Guangchao was startled and turned around abruptly, shouting, "Xiao Wu, watch out!"

Li Chunfeng's tactic of feinting to the east while attacking in the west, appearing and disappearing unpredictably, is truly unforgettable.

"How dare you be distracted by other things?"

Li Chunfeng wanted to turn around and give him an axe, but Hu Yifei's opportunity was too good.

Xiao Wu, who was being attacked by Hu Yifei and his group, was suddenly struck by a demonic axe.

'Slaughtering all in all directions!'

In an instant, the sky was filled with the shadows of axes.

Xiao Wu was on high alert and fought with all his might.

Without paying attention to his own safety, a Soul-Refining Vine quietly bound him from below.

"Freeze a Thousand Miles!" Jiang Lele and Chen Lingsu's teamwork became increasingly seamless, and they unleashed their finishing spell without hesitation. While it wouldn't truly freeze a thousand miles, it could certainly freeze the arena.

Xia Xing's sword also fell at the same time.

Under such relentless attack, Xiao Wu's eyes were bloodshot with rage. Even though he wanted to turn the tide, he was powerless and ultimately could not escape being eliminated.

In the blink of an eye, the other side had dwindled to just two people.

Meanwhile, Li Chunfeng's team remained intact.

Li Chunfeng flew into the air, the six dark wings on his back only gently fluttering as if wiping away dust, yet allowing him to maintain extremely high mobility at all times.

Beneath the Shadow Horn Armor, a scarlet tongue licked his lips, and he could actually smell a sweet aroma emanating from Yuwen Guangchao.

A chill ran down my spine; I knew it was from the influence of the Mosquito Taoist.

Yuwen Guangchao and She Gongjie stood on either side, relying on each other. A huge moonlight shield surrounded Yuwen Guangchao, his gaze calm.

It was the insect that brought it success, and it was also the insect that brought it down.

Their overemphasis on the Soul-Slaying Insects actually hampered their actions. Li Chunfeng exploited their weaknesses, leading to the elimination of several teammates. Without the Soul-Slaying Insects, they would likely have been eliminated in a single encounter, let alone be able to put up a fierce fight against Li Chunfeng.

With another wolf howl, he could only watch helplessly as the Demon Wolf Battle Spirit was also slain by the Battle Will Entity.

Li Chunfeng didn't keep them waiting long. With a wave of his hand, more than fifty undead servants appeared, including black warriors, death knights, and evil yakshas.

Upon witnessing this scene, Yuwen Guangchao felt utterly dejected.

"Yes, after fighting for so long, everyone has almost forgotten that Li Chunfeng hasn't even used his full strength. He also has a technique to summon the undead, how are we supposed to deal with that?"

She Gongjie glanced at the captain with guilt, "It's my fault!"

This is the price Li Chunfeng paid for failing to banish magic; he had too many methods.

Yuwen Guangchao noticed his teammates' low morale and said in a deep voice, "Little Snake, cheer up. Even if we lose, we must show the spirit of Guixu."

"Yes, Captain!" She Gongjie responded loudly.

Li Chunfeng also intended to give the final stage to his teammates. The undead servants simply surrounded them without attacking. With a wave of his hand, Hu Yifei and the others rushed forward together.

The warrior's spirit body held the Fire Blade Holy Sword with its tip pointing downwards, gripping the hilt with both hands, moving in sync with him.

Hu Yifei's "Light Bulb Saint Body" shone even brighter, like an angry Vajra, as the Burning Heart Subduing Demon Blade slashed horizontally from the side.

Xia Xing's Ten Ultimate Sword Techniques unfolded continuously, the blade flashing.

The two young girls, Chen Lingsu and Jiang Lele, grew more and more confident as the fight progressed. One controlled a large area of ​​the battlefield, while the other cunningly summoned numerous vines to launch surprise attacks and harass the enemy.

Seeing this, Li Chunfeng felt even more relieved and released his demonic transformation, enjoying for the first time the feeling of being carried by his teammates.

The Mosquito Taoist buzzed and flapped its wings, revealing its true power for the first time with its 'Breathless Concealment + Shadow Instant Escape' technique. It darted into the void and, taking advantage of the chaos, managed to pass through Yuwen Guangchao's protective moon.

Finding an opening, it silently landed on Yuwen Guangchao's back.

With just a gentle bite, she broke through Yuwen Guangchao's thick muscle defenses and sucked on it with relish.

Yuwen Guangchao grew increasingly exhausted and weaker with each battle. The 'Wolf's Frenzy' technique, which he could previously sustain for sixty breaths, was now failing him after only thirty.

"Ow!"

With a wolf howl, his natal demonic pet, the Shadow Moon Demon Wolf, broke free from its combined state, becoming listless and drooping its eyelids.

"Buzz~"

The Mosquito Taoist, having drunk his fill, flew gracefully past him and headed straight for the Spirit-Dispelling Insect on She Gongjie's head.

Upon seeing the mosquito, Yuwen Guangchao knew perfectly well that he had been tricked without his knowledge.

Even if he didn't lose his fighting spirit, it was too late to turn the tide. The feeling of weakness after the berserk state was lifted instantly swept over his entire body.

Hu Yifei slashed down with his sword, smashing away Yuwen Guangchao's spear. Immediately afterward, Xia Xing's longsword fell, and Yuwen Guangchao was powerless to defend himself. In a flash of white light, he was protected by the array spirit.

He was immediately eliminated after his attack was deemed a guaranteed kill.

"Chirp~"

She Gongjie's venomous insect saw the mosquito that had silently fled and screamed in fear.

"I give up!" he shouted helplessly.

Li Chunfeng was slightly disappointed and stopped there, summoning back the Mosquito Taoist.

Hu Yifei and the others were stunned for a moment, then suddenly cheered in unison, "We won!"

"We are champions!"

Li Chunfeng was also infected by his companions' emotions, and a smile appeared on his face.

They were all immediately teleported back to the floating island.

In the off-site live broadcast room, the two famous commentators, "Hum and Ha," appeared. "Alright, viewers. Let's congratulate the Shanhai Academy team from Shanhaibuzhou for winning the championship of this Qingyun Ranking Team Competition! Congratulations to fellow Daoists Li Chunfeng, Hu Yifei, Xia Xing, Chen Lingsu, and Jiang Lele. We also thank the Tianhe Academy team from Guixubuzhou for presenting us with a wonderful battle, and congratulations to them for winning the runner-up honor in this Qingyun Ranking Team Competition."

"Throw flowers!"

Congratulations to the Shan Hai team.

"The new generation surpasses the old."

"Young people these days are amazing. Compared to them, I feel like a useless piece of trash."

"The Earthly Realm has a worthy successor!"

"Could you please provide Li Chunfeng's social media accounts?"

The live chat was filled with congratulations.

With a deafening roar, the Azure Cloud Ranking made its dazzling debut.

On the enormous, illusory ranking list, streaks of seven-colored golden threads appeared.

Like a master calligrapher, holding a golden brush, he wrote the final victor's name with vigorous strokes.

Tianhe Academy team, then Shanhai Academy team.

When Li Chunfeng's name was finally imprinted at the very top.

Li Chunfeng was filled with anticipation.

This time he was prepared, and his feelings were more direct.

The moment the name was written, the incomplete jade disc deep within his mind suddenly trembled. A seven-colored radiance, ten times more magnificent than when he ascended to the top of the Azure Cloud Ranking of the Mountain and Sea Continent, surged forth.

The broken jade disc trembled a few times, then immediately suppressed the ball of seven-colored light.

The [Derivation Method] function that he had been looking forward to for so long was successfully activated again.

Only at this moment did Li truly feel that his trip had been worthwhile.

Yuwen Guangchao walked over with a pale face and congratulated them, saying, "Congratulations, you deserve the championship."

Li Chunfeng said, "Congratulations to you as well, it's truly commendable to be the runner-up."

Yuwen Guangchao gave a wry smile. "Thank you. I'm feeling a bit itchy and numb right now. Do you have any suggestions for relieving this, fellow Daoist?"

Li Chunfeng chuckled, reached out and summoned Mosquito Taoist in his palm, which flew towards Yuwen Guangchao.

"Brother Dao, don't resist."

Then the mosquito-like Taoist transformed into a little girl and gently sucked on the wound. Yuwen Guangchao immediately felt a cool sensation. The tingling, burning pain that seemed to seep into his soul instantly dissipated, and his pale face finally calmed down. "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

With this, the Mountain and Sea World Qingyun Ranking Team Competition officially came to an end.

And their wonderful lives are just beginning.

Li Chunfeng gazed at the distant sea of ​​clouds, muttering to himself, "I have been eagerly awaiting to find out what the true wonders of the original text of the 'Black Lotus Sutra of the Turbid World' are."

I'd like to ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month!
