Chapter 247 Is the Immortal Job Mission Real or Illusory?
The Azure Dragon's thunder, the White Tiger's claws, the Vermilion Bird's flames, and the Black Tortoise's impact—four forces acted simultaneously on one of the nine-headed serpent monster's heads.
A piercing scream rang out, and the head was successfully severed. The nine-headed serpent monster, severely wounded, writhed wildly, causing the demonic energy in the cave to become even more chaotic.
However, just when everyone thought victory was imminent, the remaining eight heads of the nine-headed serpent monster suddenly merged together, forming a huge black sphere containing terrifying energy, which was about to be launched towards Yuan Bao and the four divine beasts...
Just as the black magic ball was about to be launched, suddenly, the tracking orb in her hand seemed to have a subtle influence on the evil power, vibrating continuously in her hand, and its light became brighter and brighter.
Without hesitation, Yuan Bao channeled his spiritual power into the pearl.
The pearl shone brightly, its dazzling blue light clashing violently with the eerie purple demonic energy emanating from the serpent.
At the same time, she communicated with the four divine beasts through her mental power, signaling them to cooperate in launching an attack.
The Azure Dragon circled the Demon Serpent at high speed, creating a huge vortex in the surrounding airflow and slowing down the launch of the Demon Ball.
The White Tiger pinpointed the weakness in the Serpent's body exposed by the previous attack and prepared to strike.
The Vermilion Bird continuously spewed flames, interfering with the Demon Serpent's movements;
Xuanwu used its powerful defensive capabilities to provide cover for everyone.
Yuan Bao was always ready to use the Medicine King's healing skill to replenish his companions' energy.
With everyone working closely together, Yuan Bao seized the opportunity and manipulated the pearl to rush directly towards the core of the demon serpent.
With a deafening roar, the pearl successfully pierced the demonic serpent's body, instantly triggering a powerful backlash.
The serpent let out its final roar, its body began to tremble violently, and the power supporting the magic orb gradually dissipated.
Immediately afterwards, the serpent's enormous body crashed to the ground, raising dust that filled the entire cave.
Once the dust settled, the black panther spirit and the other lesser demons were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, kneeling and begging for mercy.
Yuan Bao glanced around and decided to release the lesser demons who had been coerced by the serpent but had not committed any major crimes, while capturing only the culprits, such as the black panther demon.
Subsequently, Yuan Bao used his spiritual power to repair the loosened barrier of Black Wind Cave, preventing any more demons from escaping and harming the human world.
Yuan Baogang had just finished dealing with the Black Wind Cave matter, and her spiritual energy had not yet been fully contained, when suddenly, a snow-white shadow darted out from the shadows and stopped at her feet.
Yuan Bao looked down and saw that it was the little fox demon trapped in the demonic energy cage.
Under the moonlight, the little fox demon's fur was snow-white, like snowflakes falling in early winter, shimmering with a soft glow in the dim light.
Its two watery eyes, like two round black gems, looked pitifully at Yuan Bao. Its tail drooped limply, and it made a soft whimpering sound in its throat, as if it had a bellyful of grievances that it wanted to tell.
Just then, Yuan Bao's cultivation quest prompt quietly reappeared: Listen to the little fox demon's lament, and whether to believe it or not, please listen to your inner intuition.
Your choice will affect the results of the Celestial Class assessment.
Yuan Bao gazed into the little fox demon's clear eyes. Its adorable yet pitiful appearance touched the softest part of Yuan Bao's heart.
Yuan Bao hardly hesitated; her intuition led her to believe the little fox demon.
Yuan Bao slowly squatted down, a gentle smile on her face, and asked softly, "Little one, where do you live?"
The little fox demon paused for a moment, her ears twitching slightly, then said in a soft, tentative voice, "Really? You're actually willing to help me! There's always been a rumor in the demon realm that you cultivators like to bully demons, but it turns out that's not true. My home is in Qingqiu, sister, can you take me back?"
Yuan Bao gently picked up the little fox demon. The little creature curled up in her arms, occasionally rubbing its head against Yuan Bao's arm, indicating the direction they should go.
Yuan Bao led the little fox demon through the swirling clouds and soon arrived at a dreamlike place – Qingqiu.
What comes into view are rolling hills, with peach blossoms blooming freely all over the mountains. A gentle breeze blows, and pink petals flutter down, like a dreamy rain of flowers.
A clear stream meanders through the water, its surface shimmering, and fish swim freely in it.
Not far away, pavilions and towers are scattered in a well-organized manner, appearing and disappearing in the clouds and mist, like a beautiful painting.
The little fox spirit excitedly broke free from Yuan Bao's embrace and ran towards a magnificent palace.
Yuan Bao followed closely behind and entered the palace, where he saw a graceful nine-tailed fox sitting on a white jade chair.
Her nine tails swayed gently, each tail radiating a soft light, and her beautiful eyes seemed to see through everything in the world.
The little fox demon ran to the nine-tailed fox's side and chattered on about her experiences, from being captured by the black panther demon to being rescued by Yuan Bao.
After listening quietly, the nine-tailed fox turned her gaze to Yuan Bao, her eyes filled with gratitude: "Thank you, fellow immortal, for protecting my young fox. Qingqiu will remember this kindness. If there is any need in the future, Qingqiu will definitely not stand idly by."
As soon as the nine-tailed fox finished speaking, she suddenly moved lightly and approached Yuan Bao.
She parted her lips slightly and exhaled a breath that shimmered with iridescent light.
In an instant, Yuan Bao felt a strange force rush towards him, his head spun and his vision blurred.
She instinctively closed her eyes, trying to alleviate her discomfort.
When Yuan Bao slowly opened his eyes again, he found that the scenery around him had been completely transformed.
The once fragrant fairyland of Qingqiu has vanished, replaced by the solemn and majestic scene of the Heavenly Palace, and I am now standing in front of Jiang Taigong.
A sharp headache came over her like a tidal wave, as if it were tearing her skull apart.
Yuan Bao couldn't help but raise his hand to rub his temples, filled with doubt.
"What happened? How come I'm back in the Heavenly Palace the moment I close my eyes and open them again?"
Her gaze lingered among the carved beams and painted rafters of the Heavenly Palace, trying to find a clue.
"Could it be that all the experiences I had in Qingqiu were just a bizarre and absurd dream?"
But why does everything feel so real? So real that I can still feel the warmth of the little fox spirit rubbing against my arm...
Yuan Bao became increasingly confused, a look of bewilderment in his eyes, and stood there blankly.
Jiang Taigong stroked his long, snow-white beard, his gaze sharp as he stared at Yuan Bao, whose face was full of confusion, and said slowly, "People say that dreams are a reflection of the heart. Only in dreams can people let down their guard and reveal their truest selves."
This specially brewed celestial wine can help one enter a dream state. This arrangement was precisely to test your character. Your every action in the dream has been truthfully reported to the Heavenly Court.
Jiang Taigong paused slightly, a hint of expectation flashing in his eyes, and then said, "Now, there is only one last thing left!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Bao immediately composed himself, his expression turning solemn and serious. He stepped forward respectfully and said, "Please speak freely, Grandfather. I, Yuan Bao, will do my utmost!"
