Big Bodhi

Chapter 6: Devouring

Qing Yan raised her head, looked at the tall and huge body of the demon wolf, and frowned slightly. She knew very well that even if she showed the true form of a mountain ghost at this time, it would not be a wise choice to confront the demon wolf head-on, but now that the demon wolf was furious and mad, she had no better option.

As the yin energy danced back, the mountain ghosts face gradually distorted, and her white dress was also ripped by the rapidly expanding body.

After a few breaths, the beautiful and enchanting woman had completely transformed into a ferocious and terrifying mountain ghost. Under the waving six feet, nine arms, and two heads, the dark yin energy and the light white halo contrasted each other, appearing to be extraordinary.

It was just that compared to the huge demon wolf with shocking momentum, the real body of the mountain ghost was not only a foot shorter, but its aura was even weaker, swaying between the line of illusory and realness, revealing the essence of its own emptiness.

In fact, mountain ghosts couldn't be counted as ghosts, but should be classified as spirits. However, most of the mountain ghosts born were full of grievances, and their spiritual powers were similar to ghosts. Therefore, such creatures were called mountain ghosts.

The huge figure of the demon wolf took a step forward, and the ground trembled in response, while smoke and dust filled the sky.

Although the mountain ghost never retreated, the aura of her dharma had weakened a little.

If she had kept using spells and spiritual techniques to suppress this demon wolf from afar, Qing Yan might not have the chance to escape from the battle. And that was why after she broke through in her cultivation, she never left Qingluan Mounatin, due to her limited knowledge in spells and spiritual techniques. Apart from the spells originated from the Qingluan Mountain, she wasn't familiar with most of the magic incantation and spells. It was very different from the rest of the ghosts and spirits, captured and imprisoned in Qingluan Mountain.

At this time, using the mountain ghost's body to fight the demon wolf's body was tantamount to attacking the other's strength with one's own weakness, allowing him to take full advantage of the situation.

The demon wolf's pace became faster and faster, and after a few breaths, it walked before the mountain ghost's dharma, and slapped its claws in the deafening roar!

(T/N:- Dharma here may refer to their true form. For example, a mountain ghost's true form has two heads while a demon wolf has the above traits.)

Qing Yan could not take the attack head on, and could only retreat!

The two huge heads of the mountain ghost trembled slightly at the same time. White light lingered between them, and her silhouette quickly retreated, narrowly avoiding his offensive attack.

There was a trace of disdain in the demon wolf's yellow-brown eyes, his movements were getting faster and faster. Raging up, his claws blazed with purple-black demonic light to attack and kill without mercy!

While the mountain ghost dodged left and right, several smaller peaks around crumbled and shattered under the wolf's claws, and the northwest corner of Qingluan Mountain was a mess.

Under the conscious or unconscious tacit understanding, Ji Yuenian still did not suffer any aftermath at this time, his tightly closed eyelids trembled slightly.

In the depths of his soul, a dark flame started to ignite.

The boy's eyes slowly opened, obscured by the darkness. He quietly watched the violent battle between two behemoths more than ten meters away.

'The mountain ghost Qing Yan, ate my left arm, while the demon wolf ate my right arm.'

With jet-black flame reflected in his pupils, he leaned on a rock, and sensed the huge influx of information carried within the wisp of Heart Fire.

Heart Fire was usually red, and it was the source of spiritual cultivation. However, his Heart Fire was pitch-black. In ancient records, this kind of Heart Fire was called Psychic Karma Fire.

There were countless living beings between heaven and earth, but there was only one in a billion who could awaken the Psychic Karma Fire.

As for the difference between the Psychic Karma Fire and the ordinary Heart Fire... Ji Yuenian raised his head slightly and looked at the huge body of the mountain ghost.

The mountain ghost Qing Yan was an illusory spirit body. At this time, under the pressure of the demon wolfs body, it was gradually getting suppressed, and there was no room for her to fight back.

"How dare you attack me? I thought you really had the ability." The demon wolf stopped, looked at the mountain ghost who was dodging in an awkward manner, and a sneer crept up on his mouth, "Today, I will capture you and take you to the Ancient Temple to exchange for my hundreds of years of life!"

After the words were finished, the demon wolf opened its bloody mouth full of sharp teeth and let out a heart rending roar!

Roar!

The sound waves condensed into a beam, shone with back-purple demonic light, and gushed out from his mouth, sweeping towards the mountain ghost.

The ferocious head of the mountain ghost also let out a roar of rage, and the purple-black demonic light was scattered away by half, but there was still a large half of the sound wave which remained unabated, it turned into dark purple chains, wrapped around the whole body of the mountain ghost, and bound her in place.

"Still don't want to bow down and surrender?"

The demon wolf laughed loudly, and his huge demon body rose into the air, casting a large shadow on the ground and pouncing towards the mountain ghost.

Qing Yans thoughts were still too simple. After all, she had never left Qingluan Mountain. Although she was naturally intelligent, she never expected that the demon wolf who used to reign a demon city and at the Late stage of the True Dao Realm would be so greedy for life and afraid of death, not even willing to fight for a slim chance of survival.

Even if she was lucky enough to break through the Heavenly Furnace Barrier, she would not necessarily turn back to lead the demon wolf, but if the situation allowed, she would not hesitate to help the demon wolf, but the thoughts of a creature could never be guessed, and this was her biggest miscalculation.

The huge shadow of the demon wolf obscured the blue dome of heaven, and Qing Yan's eyes dimmed. However, a very strange feeling suddenly surged in the depths of her mind, and out of the corner of her eyes, she subconsciously glanced at Ji Yuenian, who seemed to be still unconscious.

'Even if the demon wolf is repelled, this fellow would definitely report my creation of the barrier-breaking spell to the Ancient Temple. It is better to give up the dharma spiritual body and let it go!'

In just a short while, the mountain ghost had made up her mind! Abandon the dharma spiritual body, retain only the origin of the ghost's yin force, devour the soul of Ji Yuenian, and directly take the body away!

Even so, she would completely lose her nine-armed, six-legged, and two-headed mountain ghost dharma body, and her cultivation would inevitably plummet, but she would be able to break free from the shackles of her own mountain ghost body in a certain way. At the same time, she could also get rid of the illusionary form.

It was just... this method was too extreme and there were many consequences. If Qing Yan was as rational as the previous time, she would definitely not make such a decision.
