Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor.

Chapter 185: Fire Hawk Great Demon General! A Palm Descends from the Sky

Upon hearing that someone had infiltrated, the smiles on Qiu Qing and Liang Yin's faces vanished instantly.

"What a jinx."

The eldest brother, Qiu Qing, wished he could slap himself, and subconsciously looked at Qiu Zhen:

"Little brother, what do we do?"

"It's alright, I'll handle it. You guys just stay in the valley."

Qiu Zhen's expression was calm, and his heart didn't ripple in the slightest.

In recent days, Fairy Yun Rou had repeatedly warned him. Liu Anqing and Kang Zhuangyuan had also sent people to confess to him that the Demon Suppression Division knew about Qiu Qing and Liang Yin, so it was not surprising that the Demon Suppression Division secretly sent people to investigate Qiu Family Village.

In fact, the Demon Suppression Division sending people to secretly infiltrate and investigate was considered polite, out of fear of him and his master, An Jishi.

Otherwise, with the Demon Suppression Division's style, as soon as there was a clue, they would inevitably "invite people to tea" to cooperate with the investigation.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~"

As he spoke, a gust of wind mixed with lightning rushed from the depths of the valley.

"Young Master, we're here."

It was Bai Zhu and Xiao Zaozi.

Bai Zhu had just been preparing to refine the "Spiritual Essence" to cultivate when he suddenly received a summons. The quick-witted Bai Zhu immediately realized:

"Something's happening?"

"That's right, you guys protect Big Brother and Sister Yin'er later."

"Okay!"

The two little fellows nodded in unison.

With that said, Qiu Zhen leaped up, actually flying into the air, stepping on the wind and flying towards the sky above the valley.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

Qiu Qing and Liang Yin looked at each other, their faces expressionless, but their eyes were filled with unease, and their hearts were apprehensive.

"Cough cough ~"

Seeing Liang Yin absent-minded and worried, Qiu Qing immediately comforted her:

"Yin'er, you don't need to worry. Little brother is always prudent in his actions. If he says it's okay, it's definitely okay. From childhood to adulthood, big and small matters, he always does what he says."

After speaking, Qiu Qing seemed to have found his backbone, and became much calmer.

Speaking of which, although he was the elder brother, from childhood to adulthood, it was always his younger brother Qiu Zhen who made the decisions, and he was more like the younger brother.

In addition, his younger brother Qiu Zhen soared into the sky, reaching a height that Qiu Qing could hardly imagine, and he became even more convinced of his younger brother, and his heart was slightly relieved.

Liang Yin was different.

She nodded lightly, not saying a word, but inwardly nervous, she couldn't help but clench her teeth, her heart filled with worry.

— —

Valley Peak.

Qiu Zhen released his divine sense and looked into the distance, his brow glowing with a faint golden light.

Divine sense and Heavenly Eye divine power worked together.

In an instant, he discovered the sneaky figure infiltrating Seeking Truth Valley.

Immediately, an unexpected look appeared on his face.

In the valley, a Fire Hawk demon with a human head and a bird body, huge in size, was entrenched on a large tree, its eyes sharp, emitting a demonic red light, looking around the misty valley, secretly spying on something.

"It's actually a demon..."

Qiu Zhen was a little surprised.

He originally thought that the Demon Suppression Division had sent experts to secretly infiltrate Qiu Family Village to investigate, and by the way, discovered "Seeking Truth Valley".

He never expected that it would be a demon.

Fire Hawks were relatively common demon beasts in Jade Dragon Mountain, large in number, born with the ability to control fire, galloping across the sky, coming and going freely, and were one of the extremely difficult monsters in the eyes of martial masters.

Upon seeing a Fire Hawk, they would always keep their distance.

And the Fire Hawk demon with a human head and a bird body in front of him was even more extraordinary.

Although it restrained its aura, it was impossible to see its depth at first glance.

But what kind of person was Qiu Zhen? He awakened his primordial spirit, his divine sense was powerful, and at a glance, he could see that this Fire Hawk demon's cultivation strength was extremely terrifying.

If it weren't for the blessed land having a natural blindfold, I'm afraid the Fire Hawk demon would have already broken into the valley.

In fact, the blindfold illusion array of the blessed land wouldn't be able to stop the Fire Hawk demon for long.

Under the illumination of the demon's red eyes, the flowing clouds in the valley evaporated at a speed visible to the naked eye, disappearing into the world.

It wouldn't be long before the mist in the valley would dissipate, and it wouldn't be able to trap him for long.

"Did the other party accidentally discover the blessed land, and that's why he broke in by mistake? Or is he here for me, and the visitor is unkind?"

Qiu Zhen frowned slightly, pondering in his heart.

However, he didn't hesitate much.

This place was "Qiu Family Village", and outside the valley were all his clansmen. No matter what the other party's purpose was, he had to be fully prepared.

Immediately, Qiu Zhen didn't hesitate and stretched out his hand.

A treasure seal emitting a faint golden light appeared in his hand.

It was the magic weapon [Jade Dragon Treasure Seal].

Qiu Zhen formed a thunder seal with his left hand and pinched the "Mountain Sealing Incantation" with his right hand:

"Decree!"

A ray of spiritual light entered the [Jade Dragon Treasure Seal].

"Rumble!"

The next moment, Seeking Truth Valley shook for a while, as if a giant who had been sleeping for countless years suddenly woke up, and a powerful aura burst out from the earth veins.

The entire valley was filled with spiritual light.

In the blink of an eye, a barrier was formed, dividing the inside and outside of the valley into two worlds.

The sudden change startled the Fire Hawk demon who was secretly breaking the blindfold illusion array, and it suddenly rose into the air, its wings spread out, actually three meters long, its gorgeous feathers like dancing flames, and with its wings spread out, it was like burning clouds, standing in the air.

After flying into the air, the Fire Hawk demon saw the barrier with flowing spiritual light at a glance, and its expression changed slightly:

"Mountain Sealing Barrier."

The Mountain Sealing Barrier was a famous guardian formation in the world.

A deity, or an ancient great sect of immortals, would all connect the power of the earth veins to form a "Mountain Sealing Barrier".

It could defend against enemies outside the mountain gate.

It could also close the door and beat the dog, catching a turtle in a jar.

Seeing the battle in front of him, the Fire Hawk demon immediately understood that he had been exposed long ago, but he was not afraid in his heart. His fiery red eyes swept around, and he quickly discovered Qiu Zhen standing on the peak, with a playful look on his face, and he spoke in human language:

"Having the mountain god's destiny is different, with profound blessings. This place looks unremarkable, but I didn't expect it to be another world, actually a rare blessed land."

Qiu Zhen's heart moved when he heard this.

The other party didn't break into this place by mistake, but really came for him.

"Who are you from?"

"Humph."

The demon snorted coldly, raised his head, with a proud look, and did not answer, his expression arrogant:

"Hand over the Liang family and the [Dragon Lord's Book of Pills]."

As expected, he came for the Liang family.

Qiu Zhen raised his eyebrows:

"Who told you that I have the [Dragon Lord's Book of Pills]? If I had such an opportunity, experts would have gathered around the valley long ago, would you have a share in it?"

"Whether there is an opportunity or not, this general will know after capturing the Liang family."

After the Fire Hawk demon finished speaking, the feathers all over his body trembled, standing up like steel knives, and jumping flames rose on the gorgeous feathers, red and dazzling, orange and dazzling, and each fire feather exuded a scorching aura.

When the Fire Hawk demon spread its wings, the wind howled and the flames rolled, and scorching flames overflowed from its body, and the surrounding trees actually burned.

As the Fire Hawk demon lost his temper, Chi Yan quickly broke the mountain mist formation, and suddenly broke the blindfold in the mountain.

Qiu Qing, Liang Yin and others hiding in the cave in the valley, saw the clouds and saw the moon, and the sky above the valley was completely in sight.

When Liang Yin saw the fiery giant hawk demon in the sky above the valley, her pretty face suddenly turned pale.

Having grown up in the Merchant Guild, she had seen a lot. Especially in identifying demons, her eyesight was excellent. The moment she saw the Fire Eagle demon, she immediately saw something amiss and exclaimed:

"A High-Level Demon General, no, it's a Great Demon General!"

"What? A Great Demon General!"

Qiu Qing was also greatly shocked. He was no longer the ignorant country bumpkin of the past. After practicing martial arts, he also understood the martial arts realm and the ranks of demons.

A Demon General corresponds to a human martial artist in the Acquired Realm.

A "High-Level Demon General" corresponds to a "True Meridian Acquired Realm" expert.

A "Great Demon General" is comparable to an [Inner Vision Acquired Realm] martial artist. Anywhere, they would be considered a top expert.

"How could it be a Great Demon General? Yin'er, are you mistaken?"

Qiu Qing swallowed, his face filled with disbelief.

"Sister Yin'er is not mistaken, it is a Great Demon General."

Bai Shu said solemnly, murmuring:

"This Fire Eagle demon has refined the Fire Divine Power all over its body, turning its entire body into flames. This is a divine power only a Great Demon General possesses, there's no mistake."

"This..."

Qiu Qing was stunned, and immediately felt anxious:

"Then can my little brother beat it?"

Liang Yin, who was beside him, did not speak, but her heart was filled with despair.

Her future younger brother-in-law, Qiu Qing, had reached the "True Meridian Acquired Realm" at a young age, making him a genius among geniuses, which was amazing, but dealing with a "Great Demon General" was too much.

She had heard her father say that a True Meridian Acquired Realm martial artist could not be a match for a Great Demon General.

Not to mention, this was a flying demon.

"He can't win, he can't possibly win."

Liang Yin shook her head, her face pale. She took a deep breath, and turned to Qiu Qing and said:

"Qing-ge, the demon came to find me. Let me go with the demon, don't harm Erlang. He has unparalleled talent, it's not worth it to have an accident for my sake."

"This..."

Qiu Qing was stunned.

One was his own brother, and the other was the person he loved. They were both his closest loved ones, and he was stunned for a moment.

Liang Yin was understanding and did not say much to Qiu Qing. She was about to walk out of the house shielded by the formation.

"Sister Yin'er, don't panic."

The exquisite Bai Shu stretched out a hand, and a gust of wind blocked Liang Yin, trapping her and preventing her from moving.

Immediately, Bai Shu looked calm:

"Big Brother, Sister Yin'er, you underestimate Young Master too much. It's not a great demon from the mountains, just a mere Great Demon General. Even if Young Master can't kill it, he can still be invincible. You can rest assured and stay here."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Xiao Zaozi echoed, "Young Master is very powerful."

Qiu Qing and Liang Yin were stunned when they heard this.

Seeing that the two demon generals, Bai Shu and Xiao Zaozi, were so confident and assured, they were surprised and doubtful.

Could their younger brother Qiu Zhen really fight a Great Demon General?

And be invincible?

Bai Shu and Xiao Zaozi didn't say much because they knew the two didn't believe them.

Others didn't know, but they knew that their Young Master had connected to the earth vein power here and controlled the divine power of this area. To some extent, Young Master was the local Mountain God.

Within his own divine domain, he was basically invincible.

Unless, it was a Great Demon that came.

"The fight has begun."

Suddenly, Bai Shu spoke, looking at the sky, full of anticipation.

The next moment, Qiu Qing and Liang Qing looked up at the sky together.

They saw that the surrounding clouds had turned into fiery red clouds, and the heat was billowing. Flames were like hell, covering the valley.

A shocking cry resounded through the valley, loud and shocking, piercing through the clouds, causing all things to tremble.

The Fire Eagle demon flapped its wings and flew high, the gale whistling, turning into a tornado, and with the addition of rolling hot flames, the wind vortex actually turned into burning fire tornadoes, the flames soaring, emitting a scorching temperature.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"

Dozens of fire tornadoes roared from the Fire Eagle demon's starting point, sweeping in all directions.

Wherever they passed, everything was ignited.

The originally quiet valley was filled with thick smoke, and everywhere was wind and fire.

Fire borrowed the power of the wind, and the wind aided the power of the fire.

Once the Fire Eagle demon lost control, the entire valley seemed to be ignited.

The destructive power of a powerful demon was demonstrated to the fullest at this moment.

In fact, this was just an appetizer.

Liang Yin knew something about the Fire Eagle demon's demonic wind and divine powers. Before fighting, the Fire Eagle demon would ignite all flammable objects around it, and then, the Fire Eagle demon, which was born with powerful fire control divine powers, would control the fire and burn everything in all directions.

Once the valley turned into a sea of fire, the Fire Eagle demon would become incredibly terrifying.

It could fly and had the divine power to control flames.

Even a proper Inner Vision Acquired Realm martial artist would feel a headache when encountering such a powerful demon.

"How can we fight this..."

Liang Yin and Qiu Qing clenched their fists, feeling despair in their hearts, not knowing how Qiu Zhen would deal with it.

Even Bai Shu and Xiao Zaozi, who had always been confident in their Young Master, took a deep breath, looking nervous.

For a time, four pairs of eyes stared at the sky above the valley, looking at the figure standing on the peak.

Faced with the rolling fire tornadoes, Qiu Zhen's sleeves fluttered, his expression normal. After the Fire Eagle demon stirred up wind and fire, he also made a move.

He stretched out a hand, pointed one hand to the sky, and then closed his five fingers, turning it into a palm, from top to bottom.

This move was unremarkable, not even condensing True Qi or True Meridian, it seemed like an ordinary martial artist casually chopped out a palm, and there was no power at all.

Seeing this scene, the Fire Eagle demon was slightly stunned:

"What kind of broken martial art is this? Are you scared silly?"

Halfway through the words, the Fire Eagle demon seemed to have noticed something. Without saying anything, it immediately looked up at the sky, and then, its expression changed drastically.

However, I saw that at some point in the sky above the valley, the clouds and mists gathered, and in an instant, they turned into a giant palm covering the sky.

At first glance, there was nothing special about it, it seemed like a cloud formed by the gathering of clouds and mists.

However, the Fire Eagle felt an incomparably terrifying and thick aura in the giant palm.

The cloud giant palm seemed to be a giant mountain, giving people an unparalleled sense of oppression.

What shocked it even more was that the sky-covering giant palm descended from the sky with powerful potential energy, and struck towards it.

"What kind of divine power is this!"

Facing the sky-covering giant palm, the Fire Eagle demon had a whim and felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. It was terrified in its heart and didn't think much, and frantically flapped its wings and flew towards the valley boundary.

The Fire Eagle demon sped away, turning into a red light, its speed was amazing.

However, the sky-covering giant palm descending from the sky was also getting faster and faster.

"Boom!"

The red light transformed by the Fire Eagle demon failed to escape, and was hit by the sky-covering giant palm. Suddenly, rolling clouds and mists rippled open.

The clouds and mists were rolling, gently and softly, as if there was no power.

However, the Fire Eagle demon's body stiffened.

After a shrill eagle cry, it fell from the sky and fell into the valley.

In the valley house.

Qiu Qing, Liang Yin, Bai Shu, and Xiao Zaozi were dumbfounded and stunned.

"What happened?"
