Chapter 2545 Jiu You Spirit

Second update, seeking subscriptions and monthly votes~~~

...

Qin Fang didn't dare to harbor any bad intentions...

Even with a Passage Jade Token to escape, wanting to make a play for the Golden Core of Teng Jiao would definitely be courting disaster... Before he could even get close to Teng Jiao, he'd likely be torn to pieces.

Despite his formidable physical defense and the several layers of protection from the Heavenly Silkworm Silk Armor... even a Supreme Realm Powerhouse would need considerable effort to kill him.

However, in Teng Jiao's eyes, these cards are as good as having nothing!

Even if a puppet person were used as a shield, it would still meet the same fate of being easily destroyed...

The defense of a puppet person is at the level of Paramount Experts, but Teng Jiao's strength far surpasses the Supreme Realm, coupled with its unparalleled fierce beast power; even the North Sea Purple Copper of the puppet person would be smashed into "mincemeat".

Pang Sihai...

He was even more honest than Qin Fang.

Though he was also secretly eyeing Teng Jiao's Golden Core, it was clear he knew some inside information, moving like a tortoise, not daring to budge an inch...

With Teng Jiao's emergence, the entire Nine Serenities Forbidden Lands calmed down, and even the Nether Beasts, previously making some noise, stayed obediently anchored, not daring to move or make a sound, instantly transforming the place into a land of death.

Except... a subtle sound was stirred within the calming Netherworld Ghost Qi.

"Huh, what's that?"

Qin Fang paused slightly, muttering subconsciously.

At present, Teng Jiao surged from the lake, absorbing the Moonlight Power, and all around, the nether beasts, spiritual beasts, even Qin Fang and Pang Sihai, could only obediently, fearfully squat there without daring to move.

Yet there was an exception...

If this didn't surprise Qin Fang, then he wasn't sure what would count as an exception.

He had casually glanced over but unexpectedly discovered something... within the Netherworld Ghost Qi, something was indeed moving.

"It seems to be some kind of creature... a Nether Beast?"

Qin Fang was startled by such a scene; Teng Jiao's overwhelming aura suppressed the entire Nine Serenities Forbidden Lands, yet there was a creature daring to move, which was exceptionally strange. Slightly stunned, he immediately used the Scouting Skill on that creature.

"Could it really be a Jiu You Spirit?"

Upon seeing this thing, Qin Fang's mind instantly recalled a creature that only existed in legends.

Calling it a creature wasn't entirely accurate.

It's an entity born in the Nine Serenities Netherworld, nurtured by Netherworld Ghost Qi over countless years, evolving intelligence over time, becoming a spirit beast-like entity.

This is the Jiu You Spirit...

Born in the Nine Serenities Netherworld, capable of wielding significant power of the Nine Serenities Netherworld, becoming a Jiu You Spirit is not unwarranted.

Rumor has it that after its birth, it can merge into the Nine Serenities Netherworld or materialize outside, but remains absolutely connected with it, freely transitioning between reality and illusion... almost an immortal creature!

As long as the Nine Serenities Netherworld exists, the Jiu You Spirit doesn't die!

Even if there were ways to subdue the power of the Nine Serenities Netherworld, at most it would only suppress it, unable to completely annihilate or kill it!

Of course, its strength is equally fearsomely extreme...

You can see this just by observing the Nine Serenities Netherworld slowly infiltrating and transforming countless nether beasts into nether beasts or nether beast kings!

Teng Jiao is so terrifying, having already reached a very high level; spirit beasts, spirit beast kings aren't its match, suppressed by its aura not daring to move... but this little thing can ignore Teng Jiao's might, its foundation must be extraordinary.

What surprised Qin Fang even more was that although Teng Jiao had noticed its existence, it seemed somewhat apprehensive, not initiating an attack, instead absorbing some of the Moonlight Power from that Golden Core.

From its demeanor, Qin Fang had every reason to believe it was worried the little thing would seize its Golden Core...

"Jiu You Spirit..."

Qin Fang fell silent for a moment, somewhat guessing the identity of the Jiu You Spirit, he didn't dare to use the Scouting Skill on it but obediently squatted, at most vigilantly watching the Jiu You Spirit, guarding against its possible attack.

The Scouting Skill is quite mystical, but at the same time, it significantly provokes hostility... kind of akin to an indirect provocation.

Faced with spirit beasts weaker than Qin Fang, perhaps nothing might happen, Qin Fang himself wouldn't care, while such spirit beasts might be cautious in dealing with Qin Fang due to fear.

However, facing those powerful spiritual beasts whose strength far exceeded Qin Fang's, actively using the Scouting Skill would be provocation... The Teng Jiao had already glanced at Qin Fang just now, only to view him as nothing more than an ant in its eyes, while it was busy absorbing the Moonlight Power, so it didn't bother.

If it were the Jiu You Spirit, then everything might be different.

Qin Fang wasn't very clear about why the Jiu You Spirit suddenly emerged to act, but it definitely wouldn't ignore Qin Fang like the Teng Jiao did... Qin Fang is now hiding there, quite close to its domain, and who knows if it would go on a rampage.

Born from the Nine Serenities Netherworld, the Jiu You Spirit, along with the numerous Nether Beasts that the Netherworld nurtured, had Qin Fang snatch eighteen Nether Beasts from its clutches and destroy quite a bit of Netherworld Ghost Qi. The Nine Serenities Netherworld isn't a creature, so naturally it wouldn't get angry, but the Jiu You Spirit might.

Qin Fang noticed the Jiu You Spirit, and Pang Sihai seemed to sense it too, gradually turning his gaze in that direction...

"Hiss~~"

Whether Pang Sihai knew or didn't know about the Jiu You Spirit, upon seeing the spirit bouncing around in the Netherworld Ghost Qi, he couldn't help but be a bit surprised, his voice unnaturally a bit louder.

The Jiu You Spirit seemed to hear Pang Sihai's voice, and its previously joyful movements suddenly froze, immediately looking over towards Qin Fang and Pang Sihai.

Almost instantly, Qin Fang and Pang Sihai felt as if a ferocious beast was locking onto them, their entire bodies suddenly became cold...

They saw a pair of eyes, eyes that were cold, devoid of any emotion.

Just this alone made Qin Fang and Pang Sihai feel as if they had fallen into an icy cave... The Bone-Eroding Yin Wind was already quite frigid, but compared to such a gaze, it was nothing more than child's play!

"Damn it, you bastard..."

Feeling such an aura, Qin Fang really wanted to curse Pang Sihai thoroughly.

He had tried to be as low-key as possible, yet he was still dragged into trouble by this guy... directly attracting the attention of the Jiu You Spirit.

Though the Jiu You Spirit is a spiritual entity, not a Nether Beast...

However, if its strength erupts, even an existence as terrifying as the Teng Jiao, which surpasses the Spiritual Beast King, would have to pay attention... Plus, with the Nine Serenities Netherworld right beside it, its strength could be said to be inexhaustible.

Even if it clashes with the Teng Jiao, it's uncertain who would come out on top.

Especially for Qin Fang and Pang Sihai...

It's estimated that the Jiu You Spirit only needs to casually extend its hand to crush Qin Fang and Pang Sihai like crushing ants!

The Jiu You Spirit, having noticed Qin Fang and Pang Sihai, seemed quite interested and slowly began to move towards them...

"Damn it, run..."

Seeing this, whether it was Qin Fang or Pang Sihai, their faces turned green instantly... Qin Fang also reacted decisively, shouting out loud, then bursting into motion, rushing towards the small nearby lake.

He realized that the most powerful entities in the Nine Serenities Forbidden Lands should be the Teng Jiao, which was currently absorbing the Moonlight Power, and this robust Jiu You Spirit... But these two powerful beings seemed to have a mutual understanding, with one occupying the small lake and the other dominating the Nine Serenities Netherworld, maintaining peace without interfering with each other.

The Teng Jiao was busy, currently unable to deal with them, but the Jiu You Spirit's approach was not a good sign.

For safety's sake, Qin Fang immediately chose to rush towards the small lake.

"Damn it..."

At this moment, Pang Sihai wasn't foolish either, realizing he had made a stupid move but didn't want to continue with another, he immediately followed Qin Fang's steps, recklessly charging towards the small lake.

The small lake wasn't very large, and now the Teng Jiao had risen, its massive body occupying over half of the area...

The remaining areas were enough for Qin Fang and Pang Sihai to hide... For the Teng Jiao, their strength was insignificant, even if they rushed over, it might not attract the Teng Jiao's attention.

But the Jiu You Spirit was different, its strength was overwhelming and abnormal, even the Teng Jiao had to handle it cautiously.

If it also rushed towards the small lake with Qin Fang and Pang Sihai, it would undoubtedly be crossing the boundary, possibly causing dissatisfaction with the Teng Jiao, potentially triggering a fierce battle between the two mighty entities.

In this case, Qin Fang and Pang Sihai might have a slim chance of survival...

As for the terrifying destructive power from the battle between two formidable entities, Qin Fang couldn't afford to think about that much.

The Nine Serenities Netherworld isn't simple; it's very difficult to be completely destroyed.

This small lake, when Qin Fang entered the Nine Serenities Forbidden Lands, he had already paid attention to it, and even with Qin Fang's Great Grandmaster Level Scouting Skill, he couldn't see through it; to say this small lake didn't have any secrets, Qin Fang absolutely wouldn't believe it.

Qin Fang even felt there might be something fishy inside the small lake...

Breaking into this small lake could not only evade the pursuit of the Jiu You Spirit but also explore the secrets of the small lake, making it a win-win situation...

Perhaps the Teng Jiao will get angry because of this, but with part of its body still above the water, without claws or the like, dealing with them would require some effort... Moreover, compared to the Jiu You Spirit, the threat posed by the two human beings, Qin Fang and Pang Sihai, is much smaller. (To be continued.
