Chapter 168 The Remnant Soul of the Golden Crow, a Glimmer of Hope

"Not good!"

Kuafu's stick woke up the ten golden crows.

Old Ten and Young Wen were relatively rational, knowing that they had caused a big disaster, and they knew that they were no match for the witch clan's great witch.

"We should not stay here for long, let's go!"

The other nine golden crows also regained some rationality under this stick, and immediately formed a formation and cast a spell, while controlling the sun's true fire to harass remotely, and rushed towards the East China Sea frantically.

Fortunately, they are birds, and they are born with good speed.

Although Kuafu's strength is good, he does not know how to fly, his speed is slightly inferior, and he is not good at long-range attacks, which gives them room to turn around.

Otherwise, if it were other great witches, they would probably be in danger.

"Damn flat-haired beast, you want to escape after killing your tribe?!"

Kuafu shouted angrily, holding a peach wood stick, and chased after them relentlessly.

He chased after the Golden Crow, crossed the mountains, drank the Yangtze River, passed through the dark valleys, and chased from the inland to the outer land.

Logically speaking, with his physique, he would not feel tired even if he ran around the prehistoric continent for thousands of years, let alone from the inland to the outer land.

But the strange thing is that just this section of the road made him feel exhausted physically and mentally.

Like boiling a frog in warm water, this feeling was not obvious at the beginning, and when he found it, it was too late.

"Brothers, this great witch is dying, let's send him off!"

The second brother Zhong Lang's eyes flashed, and he seized the gap, seized the control of the Golden Crow formation, and sent out a golden fireball, which hit Kuafu's chest heavily, giving him a hard blow.

The true fire of the sun is an extremely violent kind of flame. Even if it is just a perfect Golden Crow of Taiyi Jinxian, sending out a true fire of the sun can make ordinary Daluo Jinxian retreat.

After the ten Golden Crows formed the Golden Crow formation, the Sun Fire they emitted became even more powerful.

Kuafu was exhausted physically and mentally for some unknown reason. After being hit by this fireball, he vomited blood and fell heavily to the ground, crushing a mountain. For a while, he could not get up.

"Brothers, he is almost dead. This is the performance of a spent force."

"This big fool chased us all the way and was laughed at by the prehistoric creatures. We can't just let this grudge go!"

Hearing the words of the second brother Zhonglang, the other nine Golden Crows couldn't help but think of their experiences during this period, and their faces showed a hint of anger.

The calamity once again filled their spiritual platforms, making them lose their minds again and attack Kuafu crazily.

In the end, under the fierce attack of the Sun Fire, Kuafu was no longer moving.

As a breeze blew, Kuafu's body disappeared, and only a peach wood stick was left on the spot, turning into a peach forest.

The ten golden crows were overjoyed when they saw this. Not only did they get their revenge, but they also killed a great witch. They could speak in the wild and get praise from the elders of the demon clan.

But what they didn't notice was that tens of thousands of miles away from here, a figure suddenly turned around and looked at the peach forest transformed by the peach wood stick.

His sharp eyes suddenly turned red, and he was furious. He immediately drew his bow and aimed at the golden crows playing in the sky.

This great witch was Houyi!

After waking up from Pangu Temple, he and Kuafu were good brothers. Now that his brother died tragically, how could he sit idly by?

Houyi was one of the strongest witches in the witch clan, with super strength and unparalleled archery.

As he let go of the arrow, the arrow cut through the void, instantly crossed tens of thousands of miles of space, and pierced a golden crow's heart.

This arrow was the Xuanshui Arrow that Houyi asked Gonggong to make with his own hands, which contained the mysterious avenue of water.

The moment an arrow pierced the heart, the Great Dao of Water contained in the arrow gushed out, and the Sun's True Fire on the Golden Crow was instantly extinguished.

With its feathers all wet, it fell from the sky and hit the ground.

At the same time, in the Heavenly Palace.

Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi and Xihe, who were in seclusion refining the Tuwu Sword, suddenly felt a pain in their hearts.

Through the blood connection, they felt the fall of a Golden Crow. They were very anxious and immediately turned into three escape lights and rushed to the coast of the East China Sea.

Especially Xihe, mother and son are connected by heart, her face was pale, and she was no longer as calm as before.

No matter how domineering she is usually, she is also a mother in front of ten Golden Crows.

The coast of the East China Sea.

The sudden change scared the other Golden Crows. The calamity that permeated the spiritual platform not only did not dissipate, but became even tighter.

For a moment, they didn't know what to do, and they hovered in the air stupidly. .

Hou Yi's state was completely different from that of the Golden Crow. He was extremely calm at this moment, his eyes full of murderous intent, and he vowed to kill all ten Golden Crows and avenge Kuafu.

He continued to bend his bow and shoot arrows, and several black water arrows broke through the air one after another.

Each shot of a black water arrow meant the death of a Golden Crow.

After a while, there were only four Golden Crows left in the sky.

"Run! Run!"

After so many Golden Crows died, the old man finally came to his senses and immediately pushed the other Golden Crows to flee towards the East China Sea.

However, Hou Yi was not a great wizard like Kuafu who was not good at long-range attacks.

No matter how fast the Golden Crow was, it was not faster than the black water arrow in Hou Yi's hand.

In the battle between the witches and the demons, he had always been the nemesis of birds. As long as the speed of birds was not as fast as his arrows, there was only one final outcome!

Whoosh!

Accompanied by a shrill sound of breaking through the air, another Golden Crow fell.

At this time, only the eldest, the second and the thirteenth Golden Crows were left in the sky.

Whoosh!

Another life-threatening whistle sounded. The eldest knew that they had no resistance to the arrows and would die if they were hit.

The ten Golden Crows could not all perish here, and the Golden Crow bloodline must be left.

"Go!"

The eldest pushed the second and tenth Golden Crows hard, and was eventually pierced through the heart by the Xuanshui Arrow and fell from the sky.

Before he died, he burned his soul and exploded with a loud bang, pushing the second and tenth Golden Crows further away.

Whoosh!

Houyi bent his bow and arrow again, aiming at the tenth Golden Crow, who was slightly behind in speed, which made his feathers burst instantly, as if he fell into an ice cave.

But at this moment, the seventh Golden Crow's body paused slightly, and his face showed annoyance and misery.

"It's all my fault! It's all my fault!"

He resolutely turned around and came behind Lao Shi, and exploded with a 'boom'. The powerful explosion caused the Xuanshui Arrow to deviate from its original trajectory and shot past Lao Shi's neck, while also pushing Lao Shi over the East China Sea.

"It's quite brave!"

Hou Yi nodded, showing some admiration, but now the two sides are in a hostile relationship, and he must avenge Kuafu!

He drew his bow and arrow again, aiming at Lao Shi.

Swish——!

The tenth Xuanshui Arrow flew out and came behind Lao Shi.

Dang——!

At this critical moment, a bell sounded that resounded through the world, and the Donghuang Bell broke through the void and came to the East China Sea, protecting Lao Shi inside and shattering Hou Yi's Xuanshui Arrow.

Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi and Xihe appeared beside Lao Shi.

He had the highest cultivation and arrived first.

"Father, my brother and the others are all dead!"

Seeing Di Jun and the other two rushing over, Xiao Jinwu finally had an outlet for his negative emotions such as fear and grievance, and couldn't help crying.

Di Jun's expression was uglier than ever before. It was difficult for the innate sacred to reproduce offspring. In the next tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, he would have difficulty giving birth to offspring.

What's more, all ten of them were his bloodline, and now nine of them died tragically, how could he not be angry?

Donghuang Taiyi's expression was equally uglier, and Xihe had already taken action.

"Houyi, I want you to pay with your life!"

While speaking, Xihe's magic power surged, and a clock appeared behind her, and everything around her was paused.

Houyi was unable to move immediately, and could only watch a ray of moonlight falling towards him.

When his life was at stake, the light around Houyi suddenly dimmed, Dijiang arrived in time with the three ancestor witches, and Zhu Jiuyin took action to break the time stagnation.

"Hmph! Does Heaven want to go to war with my Wu clan?"

Di Jun's face was gloomy. He wanted to order a war now, but he was not only a father, but also the Emperor of Heaven and the Lord of the Demon Clan.

The Wu-killing Sword had not yet been refined. If the war started now, all the previous preparations would be in vain.

At the same time, he knew that the ten Golden Crows were implicated by them and affected by the calamity.

But there was one thing he couldn't figure out. Even if the ten Golden Crows were affected by the calamity and lost their minds, why did the great witch Kuafu die like that?

There must be a reason for this...

He looked up at the sky, and finally suppressed his heartache. Under the puzzled eyes of Xihe and Donghuang Taiyi, he left with the little Golden Crow.

...

Heaven.

"You mean, when you left the Fusang tree and came to Guixu, it suddenly rained heavily, and even the sun's true fire couldn't evaporate it?"

"Yes, father, I thought it was the Yellow Dragon Saint who drove us away, but now I think about it, I feel that the saint seems to have other deep meanings."

Di Jun frowned slightly. Could it be that there was the shadow of the Yellow Dragon behind this?

"Huh?"

Just then, Donghuang Taiyi on the side seemed to have discovered something. He stretched out his hand and a little light flew out from the soul of Lao Shi.

Donghuang Taiyi and the other three were all quasi-saints. After seeing this little light, they had guesses in their hearts.

There was indeed the shadow of the Yellow Dragon behind this matter, but he was not the one who caused the death of the nine golden crows, but...

"Let's go! Go visit the Yellow Dragon Saint!"

Di Jun showed a touch of joy on his face. He brought Di Jun, Xihe, Donghuang Taiyi and Lao Shi to the East China Sea and appeared above Guixu.

"Sage Huanglong, Emperor Jun of Heaven is here to visit, please show up and meet me."

Yunyin Taoist Temple.

Huanglong smiled slightly and put down the Nine Nether Soul-Calming Umbrella. He was not surprised by Emperor Jun's visit. After all, he left a glimmer of hope for the nine dead golden crows.

From the beginning to the end, Huanglong had no intention of being a spectator.

When Huanglong was still weak, he had received help from Donghuang Taiyi. When Baimi was traveling in the prehistoric world and encountered threats, Donghuang Taiyi also helped him. He must repay these two favors.

Moreover, the ten golden crows are the sons of Xihe, which means they are his nephews.

For both emotional and rational reasons, he can't just watch.

If the calamity energy could not be eliminated, the ten golden crows would have suffered this calamity. After they flew to Guixu, Huanglong could have stopped them.

But the result now is not much different.

Now that Emperor Jun took the initiative to ask for a meeting, Huanglong would naturally not refuse him. He took a step and appeared outside Guixu.

"The Lord of Heaven, Emperor Jun, greets the Yellow Dragon Saint!"

Looking at the young Taoist in front of him, Emperor Jun bowed and saluted with an unprecedentedly respectful attitude, and Donghuang Taiyi and Xihe did the same.

They did not feel reluctant at all in this salute, they were all willing.

"Come in with me."

Looking at Di Jun, Xihe and Donghuang Taiyi who were bending down for their children and relatives, Huang Long sighed suddenly.

Whether it was Di Jun, Xihe or Donghuang Taiyi, they were always high and mighty, with natural arrogance and self-esteem.

Even when facing saints, they only bowed and saluted. Under the heavens, only Hongjun Daozu had made them bow down.

Now, they performed such a great ceremony to her, which made Huang Long feel a little surprised.

…

"Thank you for your help, saint. I wonder about my son and the others?"

"Don't worry."

Huang Long smiled and waved his hand, and did not deny the rescue of the nine golden crows.

Then he picked up the Jiuyou Soul-Calming Umbrella and waved it gently, and nine residual souls appeared in the Yunyin Taoist Temple.

But these souls had confused eyes, and were entangled with karma and calamity, and they did not seem to have any spirituality.

Without waiting for Xihe to speak, Huanglong sighed and said:

"I think you can see that they are suffering for you. This is the trend of heaven and earth. Even I can't stop it. They must have such a disaster."

"We know about this, but what is the state of my son now?"

Xihe looked at the miserable appearance of her nine sons, and tears flowed from her eyes.

If there is no spiritual intelligence, even if a trace of residual soul can be saved, it is no different from death.

After she learned that Huanglong had helped, she just had a glimmer of hope in her heart, but she saw such a scene, which made her difficult to accept it for a while.

"Don't worry, since I have already taken action, there will naturally be no such mistakes."

Huanglong smiled and waved his hand. As a genuine saint, under his attention, even with Hongjun's intervention, it is difficult to take the soul from his hands.

The reason why he did not clear the karma and calamity power of the nine golden crows after taking away their souls was not because he could not do it, but because he did not do it for the time being.

He needed to use the souls of the nine golden crows and Kuafu to do some experiments.

After all, the death of the nine golden crows was just a fuse for the war between the witches and the lich, and more powerful people would die next.

He could not stop the war between the witches and the lich, and all he could do was to save as many people as possible.

At least Xihe and Donghuang Taiyi had to be saved. One of them was Chang Xi's sister, and the other had a favor to Huang Long. Both of them had to be saved. Only Di Jun...

That would be difficult. After all, he was the master of heaven and earth and the protagonist of this catastrophe.

"You don't have to worry about these nine little guys. I promise they will be fine."

Huang Long did not make his purpose clear. Di Jun and the other two looked at each other, and finally resisted their worries and curiosity and did not ask more questions.

In the end, Huang Long asked Di Jun for the top-grade innate spiritual root Fusang wood.

In response, Di Jun hesitated for only a moment before nodding his head in agreement.

Although he did not know the purpose of Huang Long's request for the Fusang wood, in his opinion, Huang Long did this for the remnant soul of the Golden Crow.

"Don't worry, Saint. I will definitely send the things as soon as possible after I return."

Di Jun bowed and did not stay here for long. He left with Donghuang Taiyi and others.

He knew the friendship between Huang Long and the Wu Clan. If he continued to stay here, it would only make Huang Long feel awkward.
