Chapter 1248: The Six Yokai Kings Appear, Tushan Killing Formation, the Great Battle Has Begun
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Outside Tushan Mountain, a sudden burst of yokai qi spread across the land!
That eruption of yokai qi was so terrifying that it formed into the shape of a huge dark cloud, covering the sky for over a thousand kilometers, steadily approaching Tushan Mountain.
An overwhelming aura could be felt just by looking at the dark yokai qi cloud. As it approached, a fear loomed over every yokai fox’s heart. Some with weaker cultivation levels could not help but tremble as if an invisible hand was clutching onto their hearts to suffocate them.
“What a scary yokai qi. How many yokai cultivators are there?!”
“This is too horrifying.”
“Do we really have a chance of winning this?”
“Don’t panic.”
Boom!
At that time, an even terrifying surge of yokai qi erupted into the sky, and a black three-legged crow with golden flames surging all over its body appeared.
With a flap of its wings, a frightening burst of yokai qi swept out like a storm.
That yokai qi alone was enough to rumble and activate the restrictions outside Tushan.
“It’s the Golden Crow King!”
Some yokai fox’s expressions changed upon realizing who he was.
The Golden Crow King was an Arch Gilded Immortal elite.
However, the Golden Crow King did not attack. All he did was appear above Tushan Mountain and casually release a trace of his aura, which was already enough to make every yokai fox go on high alert and shudder.
Besides the Golden Crow King, an earth-shattering roar sounded from the other side. It was emanating an aura that seemed like it could devour the heavens and earth itself.
The surrounding spiritual qi suddenly surged and headed in a certain direction.
Within an instant, the spiritual qi in tens of thousands of kilometers was sucked dry by an avarice beast approaching from the sky.
Every breath it took contained immense spiritual energy, and in between breaths, Daoist patterns swirled while spiritual qi was released.
“It’s the Avarice King!”
In the meantime, swirls of black qi started appearing from the forests in the distance. Countless flowers, trees, and wildlife caught in the black qi immediately eroded and wilted away.
A gigantic centipede was crawling from the depths of the earth.
It was the Sky Centipede King.
“Look, the sky has turned dark.”
Darkness suddenly covered the sky and blocked away the sun. With the light devoured, the day was turned into night.
In the air, a Tengu approached.
It was the King of the Tengu Tribe, and the sky turning dark was a result of the Tengu Eclipse conjuration. However, that conjuration was only a trace of the Tengu King’s power.
Then, the forests and mountains started trembling the moment a giant nine-headed snake appeared. Each head was several kilometers tall as if they were nine mountain peaks.
Water-fire energy surged wherever it went.
Rivers dried up while deserts turned into wetlands as the two conflicting energies transformed the surrounding landscape.
It was the Nine-Headed Snakelet King!
“So the cultivators of Emerald Hill and Tushan Mountain have gathered here? How wonderful.” A soft voice sounded.
A Dark Fox whose body was flowing with yokai qi approached from the sky. Although it was in yokai form, there was an irresistible and tempting charm in its eyes.
That was the Dark Fox King.
Upon the six great Yokai Kings’ arrival at Tushan Mountain, their endless yokai qi wreaked havoc in the void, causing the nine heavens and the earth to rumble!
Behind them were millions of yokai army soldiers coming from afar. They were so large in numbers that they filled the surrounding terrain.
Besides the six Beast Ruler Tribes, the Great Yokai Tribes and Giant Yokai Tribes that served them had also appeared.
The scale of it all instantly terrified everyone inside Tushan Mountain!
The yokai cultivators watching the battle in secret were shocked.
“This army is just too horrifying.”
“That’s right. No matter how powerful the forces of Emerald Hill and Tushan are, they’ll surely lose against that power.”
“I’m afraid the Emerald Hill and Tushan Mountain will cease to exist after this battle today.”
None of the observing yokai cultivators believed that the Emerald Hill and Tushan Mountain could withstand an attack by such a huge yokai army.
Putting it in another way, no tribe in the Great Ten Thousand Mountains could fend off such a force.
Only the most ancient tribes like the Dragon Palace, Phoenix Nest, and Kylin Cave could handle such an attack. Although those three tribes were yokai tribes, they were not situated in the Great Ten Thousand Mountains.
At that moment, two powerful surges of aura suddenly erupted within the depths of Tushan Mountain!
The yokai foxes were immediately startled upon sensing that aura.
The Emerald Hill Fox King and the Tushan Queen appeared together from the depths of Tushan Mountain. Their auras spread everywhere, shocking the heavens, earth, and even colliding with the six Yokai Kings!
At the sight of their leaders, all the yokai foxes started to gain some confidence.
“Emerald Hill Fox King and the Tushan Queen, your end has arrived today!” said the Dark Fox King with joy.
As long as she could kill both of them, the Dark Fox Tribe would have no problem wiping out Emerald Hill and Tushan, taking their place as the true yokai fox orthodoxy.
“Dark Fox King, I can’t believe we’re of the same species, yet you’ve allied with these people to attack us.”
The Tushan Queen snorted coldly.
The Dark Fox King could not help but sneer. “Tushan Queen, don’t you think you’re a hypocrite? You people have never acknowledged the Dark Fox Tribe, and you regard us as lesser beings. If we don’t support ourselves, what else do you think we should do, huh? Should we wait for your aid and support instead?”
“For devouring the life essence of your very own kind, how should we acknowledge you,the Dark Fox Tribe, as our ally?”
“Weren’t you the ones who started hunting us in the first place?”
“If you people didn’t devour the life essence of even your own kind, do you think we would’ve hunted you down?”
“Well, who’s the one who rejected us, Dark Foxes? Do you think we’d devour your life essences if you accepted us for who we were?”
“Now listen… Forget it. There’s no point fighting over this after so many years. If it’s a fight you seek today, we, the Emerald Hill and Tushan, shall oblige! ”
The Tushan Queen could not be bothered to continue reasoning with the Dark Fox King.
The Dark Fox Tribe had been in a conflict with Emerald Hill and Tushan for so long that they did not know the reason behind it all.
In short, their feud was a very troublesome thing to deal with.
The accumulated hatred throughout the ages had made the relationship between both sides like oil and water. It was in an irreparable state.
“Hmph. The Emerald Hill and Tushan shall be wiped out of existence today!” The Avarice King snorted.
“Avarice King, I’ve never known you for someone who’d do something for free. What has the Golden Crow King promised you this time?” the Emerald Hill King asked.
“Well, it’s not much really. My Avarice Tribe has been promised thirty percent of all the spoils from today’s battle. That’s all.”
“Oh, I see. Among the six Beast Ruler Tribes, your Avarice Tribe will gain thirty percent of everything. It looks like you’re greedy as always, Avarice King.”
“Quit this nonsense. Attack!” the Golden Crow King said indifferently.
Under his command, the great allied army of the six Beast Ruler Tribes immediately charged toward Tushan Mountain.
Boom!
Countless yokai cultivators rushed into the restrictions of Tushan Mountain.
Suddenly, Daoist patterns started intertwining in the void, forming one terrifying killing formation after another!
That was Tushan’s defensive measures.
Those who rushed into the killing formations were all struck with rays of light and reduced to ashes!
“Do you think I’ll allow you to simply charge into Tushan Mountain?” the Tushan Queen said coldly.
“The Tushan Killing Formation is certainly excellent. However, no matter how powerful it is, do you think you can stop my great army just like that?!” The Golden Crow King remained confident.
Sure enough, although the killing formation’s attacks had killed many intruding yokai cultivators, the great yokai army was seemingly endless.
Under that non-stop barrage of attacks, the Tushan Killing Formation was soon overwhelmed, and many yokai cultivators managed to get past the formation and enter Tushan Mountain.
“Attack!”
Having mentally prepared for this, Tushan’s yokai foxes immediately charged toward the incoming yokai army!
The great battle had begun!
