Immortal Reincarnation Tribulation

Chapter 183 Fierce Battle Together

"There is still an hour until midnight. Fellow Daoist Du may wish to take some time to adjust your breathing and familiarize yourself with this magical artifact, so that you can be better prepared during the battle."

Qian Yu calculated the time with his fingers, and after a dozen or so breaths, he looked at Du Fan and spoke with a smile.

"Okay." Du Fan naturally had no objections. He turned around and walked in one direction. He stopped about thirty feet away from Qian Yu and the other person, and then leaped into the air onto a rather smooth boulder, where he sat cross-legged.

After carefully setting up a barrier of light, he released a wisp of divine sense to examine the ring in his hand.

Qian Yu and Liu Xianglian didn't say anything about Du Fan's cautious behavior. They thought it was normal. If Du Fan hadn't done this, they would have suspected he was stupid...

After exchanging a glance, Qianyu and the other person sat down cross-legged, closed their eyes, and began to regulate their breathing.

……

An hour later, Qian Yu, Liu Xianglian, and Du Fan stood before a group of rocks, looking at a cave within the rocks, their expressions solemn.

"Fellow Daoist Du, please step back a bit to avoid any entanglement later. Once Junior Sister Liu and I have entangled this beast, you can make your move." Qian Yu said in a low voice, his eyes flashing with a dark light.

Du Fan nodded without saying a word. He swayed a few times and quietly retreated ten feet away.

Qian Yu took a deep breath, and with a sudden flick of his sleeve, more than a dozen purple rays shot out, landing in various locations outside the cave and transforming into purple incense sticks about half a foot long, encircling the cave.

Purple smoke rose from the incense sticks, but it was unclear when the core disciple of the Netherworld Sect had lit them.

In no time, the area within a hundred feet was enveloped and covered by the smoke from the burning incense, turning into a purple sea of ​​mist a hundred feet in size. The cave of the level four magical beast was located at the very center of the sea of ​​mist.

"Let's do it!"

Qian Yu's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light, and with a flick of his arm, he struck out with a palm towards the cave.

The next moment, a black palm print suddenly appeared, about a foot in size. As soon as it solidified, it roared towards the cave with a sound that seemed to tear through the void.

At the same time, Liu Xianglian's beautiful eyes flashed with a sudden light, and as she flicked her sleeves, her slender fingers made hand seals like wheels, while she chanted incantations.

In an instant, wisps of black energy floated up from the ground in front of him and slowly condensed in mid-air.

At this moment, the black palm print that Qian Yu had unleashed had already slammed into the cave amidst a series of black afterimages.

"boom……"

A deafening roar echoed from the cave, shaking the earth and sending rocks and soil flying everywhere.

Accompanying this was a piercing scream filled with extreme anger, followed by a sudden flash of a black shadow that darted out of the cave and stood amidst the purple sea of ​​mist, its eyes fixed on the two people before it with bloodlust.

When Du Fan saw this level-four magical beast, his eyes widened instantly, a strange expression appeared on his face, and he was stunned for a moment.

The level-four magical beast that instilled such fear in the three present was none other than a rabbit with entirely black fur, long ears, and about half a foot in size…

If it weren't for the rabbit's ferocious, bloodthirsty eyes and formidable cultivation, its cuteness would rival that of Chen Ru's magical pet, Xueying.

However, at this moment, no one present would underestimate the rabbit because of its cuteness.

Qianyu seemed to have known about the rabbit's appearance beforehand, and there was no surprise on his face.

Upon seeing the beast appear, his pupils suddenly contracted, and as he formed hand seals, his arms swung violently, unleashing a powerful gust of wind from his body.

The gale didn't blow towards the black rabbit, but spread outwards, instantly dispersing and instantly swirling up all the purple smoke within a hundred feet, causing it to boil violently amidst a roar.

Amidst the billowing smoke, resembling a raging sea, it instantly became violent. Simultaneously, under the impetus of Qianyu's magic power, it transformed into rows of purple waves, rolling wave after wave towards the black rabbit in the center of the misty sea.

In the blink of an eye, the black rabbit's figure could no longer be seen under the layers of smoke. At this moment, the hundred-zhang sea of ​​mist had shrunk to three zhang, but its color had become even deeper purple, almost tangible, like a purple crystal.

Seeing this, Qian Yu did not relax. Instead, his expression became even more serious. With a flick of his wrist, he quickly took out a blue palm-leaf fan, held it in his hand, and stood ready for battle.

As Junior Sister Liu made a series of hand seals, the black mist in front of her transformed into a hideous ghost.

This ghost was ten feet tall, with two heads and five arms. Its appearance was unclear, but one could sense an astonishing yin energy emanating from it, as if it had crawled out from the deepest hell.

The moment the ghost took shape, it raised its head and let out a mournful howl that sent chills down the spines of anyone who heard it.

A series of rumbling sounds emanated from the purple smoke. In an instant, the smoke boiled, the light flashed wildly, and it expanded and contracted erratically, as if an extremely powerful energy was brewing and would explode at any moment.

Upon witnessing this scene, Du Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but quietly take a few steps back.

"boom……"

A deafening roar erupted, shaking the heavens and earth; the sea of ​​fog collapsed, and the purple light dissipated.

In the blink of an eye, the place where the purple smoke had gathered was no longer shrouded in mist. Only a small black rabbit stood there, its eyes bloodshot and filled with boundless rage. Its mouth slowly opened, revealing its menacing, gleaming fangs.

The demonic rabbit's eyes were still bloodthirsty and ferocious, but its aura was much weaker than when it first emerged from the cave. It seemed that the unknown incense that Qian Yu had released had a great suppressive effect on this beast.

After a sharp screech, the demonic rabbit's figure blurred, transforming into a streak of black light, hurtling straight towards Qian Yu with lightning speed, arriving in an instant.

Qian Yu's eyes twitched at the sight, and he instantly retreated. At the same time, he suddenly waved his palm-sized cyan whirlwind forward, which instantly burst forth and collided with the whistling demon rabbit in mid-air.

After the roar, the azure whirlwind collapsed instantly, turning into a wave of energy that scattered in all directions. The demonic rabbit, however, only paused for a moment before roaring again and attacking Qian Yu in an instant.

Just then, the void in front of the Demon Rabbit rippled, and a huge black shadow suddenly appeared, blocking the beast's path. It was none other than the ferocious ghost summoned by Liu Xianglian using her ghostly supernatural powers.

The blurry faces on the two heads of that ghostly creature suddenly wriggled and transformed into two eerie mouths, emitting two sharp sounds.

The sound was faint, like the buzzing of a mosquito, but when this extremely faint sound was transformed into a sound wave and entered the demon rabbit's brain, it caused its body to tremble violently, and its eyes to show a moment of blankness.

Upon seeing this, Qian Yu abruptly stopped in his retreat, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and with a flick of his arm, a cyan whirlwind reappeared as he waved his fan, hurtling towards the demon rabbit.

The blank look in the demon rabbit's eyes flashed by, then was replaced by ferocity and boundless rage.

One of the beast's limbs suddenly rose, drawing a graceful arc in the void, and unleashing a cold, black light, like a blade, directly slicing towards the howling azure whirlwind.

With a crisp "crack", the azure whirlwind shattered once again, and the black light, carrying its remaining power, flashed and shot to within inches of Qian Yu.

Upon witnessing this scene, Qian Yu couldn't help but gasp. His lips twitched, but he didn't intend to confront the black light head-on. Instead, he moved his body in a rather strange arc, barely dodging the attack in front of him.

Liu Xianglian, who was not far away, also saw this scene. A strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes, her hand seals suddenly changed, and at the same time, her body swayed and she shot backward in a gust of fragrant wind.

As if receiving some instruction, the ghostly creature raised its two heads and let out a chaotic howl. Then, it simultaneously retracted its five arms and struck out fiercely. Instantly, five streams of black yin wind surged out amidst the sound of air being torn apart, heading straight for the demonic rabbit with a thunderous roar.

The demon rabbit seemed to be very wary of this ghostly creature, and since its appearance, it had not shown any intention of making direct contact with it.

At this moment, seeing five gusts of black wind suddenly attack, the Demon Rabbit's eyes flashed with crimson light, and its figure suddenly flashed to the side.

At this moment, Qian Yu and Liu Xianglian seemed to be of one mind, glancing at each other simultaneously, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding.

Qian Yu stomped his foot hard on the ground and used the recoil to shoot forward in an instant, rushing straight towards the Demon Rabbit. Immediately afterwards, he waved his arm three times in succession, and three balls of blue light faintly appeared on the palm-leaf fan in his hand.

At the same time, Liu Xianglian's hand suddenly formed a magic seal, and the two faces of the ghost not far from the demon rabbit wriggled again. The moment its mouth appeared, two eerie sound waves surged out and swept directly into the demon rabbit's mind.

After letting out a scream of extreme shock and anger, the fierce light in the Demon Rabbit's eyes vanished abruptly, replaced by a look of bewilderment. It froze in place, motionless.

In the blink of an eye, Qian Yu had already closed in on the demonic beast at a distance of about ten feet. After letting out a low shout, his arm suddenly trembled, and three balls of azure light that had been faintly emanating from the palm-leaf fan suddenly shot out, turning into three azure whirlwinds that swept towards the demonic rabbit's body.

"Boom... Boom... Boom..."

Just as the Demon Rabbit regained its senses, three cyan whirlwinds struck it.

After the roar, the demon rabbit let out a shrill scream, and the next moment, its body was swept backward by the swirling whirlwind.

This was the first direct hit the beast had received since it emerged from the cave.
