Chapter 940 - 349: Celestial Master Lei Vanquishes Demons (Thirteen-Thousand-Word Triple-Length - , Three-in-One)
The unknown environment and encounter caused a brief commotion among the crowd, making everyone even more fearful.
But under the shroud of light, there seemed to be a mysterious calming effect on the mind.
Soon, everyone calmed down, finding themselves in a thin mist of light, as if entering an immortal realm.
Outside the altar with three-colored light of violet, gold, and blue flowing, a great battle officially erupted on the Guyun Plains.
Lei Jun walked forward with his hands behind his back, calmly heading towards the giant void portal.
Beside him, Yue Xiling, Fang Zhu, and other Great Tang experts appeared one after another, launching attacks against the people of the Solitary Eagle Khanate beyond the gigantic illusory altar.
Duoda’s face was ashen as he sat on the Green Dragon Wind Beast, soaring into the sky.
Yue Xiling, the High Merit Elder of the Pure Yang Palace, leaped into the air as well.
Under the blazing burn of the white-golden Pure Yang True Fire, Yue Xiling seemed to grow wings, displaying the Vermilion Bird Form, showcasing a rare agility of the Taoist Dan Ding Sect’s cultivators.
However, Duoda and the Green Dragon Wind Beast beneath him moved like the wind, their movements agile and swift, turning in mid-air to avoid Yue Xiling who was also soaring into the sky.
Then, a short bow appeared in Duoda’s hand.
With a tremor of the bowstring, the Green Dragon Wind Beast opened its mouth, intertwining Spiritual Energy and Demon Qi, suddenly forming a tangible and solid green-black arrow in mid-air.
Then the rain of arrows shot towards Yue Xiling.
Having dealt with people of the Solitary Eagle Khanate before, Yue Xiling was not surprised at this moment, his form seeming to transform into a Vermilion Bird, flying in mid-air, dodging most of the arrow rain.
Some green-black arrows still hit him, their formidable attack power extinguishing much of the Pure Yang True Fire surrounding his body.
But the arrow’s power was thus weakened, and could not harm the Great Elixir of Yue Xiling, who had already reached the Nascent Soul Transformation realm.
Fang Zhu of the Jingxiang Fang Clan arrived wielding a sword, and from a great distance, slashed out several sword strikes.
The mighty Sword Qi surged forth, targeting Duoda, forming an encirclement.
In Duoda’s hand, besides the short bow, there was also a long knife.
He alternated between the weapons; while swinging the long knife, a layer of faint green-black appeared on the blade.
On the surface of the Green Dragon Wind Beast beneath him, green-black hues also emerged.
Both man and exotic beast charged forward together, light and fierce, swinging the knife to slash forward.
Solitary Eagle Khanate martial artists acted with wild, domineering aura, clearly trampling upon Wenhua without restraint.
Faced with them, the Great Tang Confucian practitioners were in a slightly better situation compared to the Neo-Confucian practitioners.
Moreover, after suffering significant losses in this respect, the Prestigious Families of the Great Tang Confucian heritage communicated and collaborated, jointly researching ways to counter, which have shown significant effectiveness currently.
However, Duoda’s actions were still extremely fierce, cleaving open the vast Sword Qi ahead.
The next moment, the enormous Green Dragon Wind Beast and Duoda on its back flashed in mid-air, disappearing from their original place, seemingly tearing through the void to teleport away.
However, when they reappeared in the distance, a large area of black suddenly surrounded them from all sides.
Soft Thunder Water, dark and silent.
Yet it forced Duoda and the Green Dragon Wind Beast to pause their movements involuntarily.
This pause allowed Yue Xiling to catch up once again.
Duoda, helpless, urged the Green Dragon Wind Beast to dodge while simultaneously shooting arrows in rapid succession, aiming at both Yue Xiling and Fang Zhu.
But out of the corner of his eye, he glanced towards the direction of the void portal.
At this glance, his heart sank directly to the bottom.
Over there, Lei Jun was eyeing Duoda up and down.
Beside him, Fang Jian said softly, "Is that the unique Martial Riding and Taming Lineage heritage of the Solitary Eagle Khanate?"
Lei Jun responded, "Yes, and he is a Martial Riding Cultivator who has already achieved the Eightfold Heaven Realm, and his tamed beast beneath is called the Green Dragon Wind Beast. It possesses Dragon Clan bloodline but is impure."
"The Solitary Eagle Khanate has secret methods for taming and cultivating them, so they have quite a few over there."
Hearing this, Fang Jian’s gaze swept around, indeed spotting other smaller Green Dragon Wind Beasts besides those under Duoda on the Guyun Plains.
This was another lineage of martial cultivators that first appeared in the Great Tang Realm during the initial invasion by the Solitary Eagle Khanate.
Riding and taming beasts are not unfamiliar in the Great Tang Realm.
But in the Great Song Realm or over at the Solitary Eagle Khanate, a whole new martial cultivation path has emerged and developed.
This cultivation path emphasizes the refinement and accumulation of physical strength and blood energy by the cultivators themselves, yet is vastly different from Martial Arts Body Refinement and even Martial Arts and Military Attack, as the martial artist’s cultivation is no longer fully invested in themselves.
Instead, while the cultivator tempers and accumulates their physical strength and blood energy, they also tame and ride Spirit Beasts.
In some ways, it can even be said to refine a Spirit Beast or even a Demon Beast for personal use, becoming a mount for themselves to ride and tame.
Just like refining a Magical Treasure.
From then on, both parties nourish each other’s blood energy, and the tamer can leverage the power of the Spirit Beast, cooperating to master various supernatural ability methods.
It is precisely because of this, in addition to the Confucian Divine Archer Lineage, another path of Archer Mastery emerges on the martial cultivation journey, although the two are entirely different in essence.
For example, Duoda, relying on the power of the Green Dragon Wind Beast, has gained short to medium distance divine archery ability, known as the Dragon Tooth Arrow.
Due to the Solitary Eagle Khanate’s mastery of a relatively large-scale secret technique for breeding Green Dragon Wind Beasts, they can cultivate Martial Riding Cultivators with Archer Mastery in large numbers.
Internally, they habitually refer to them as Roving Cavalry.
Lei Jun watched this scene with great interest.
With his current insight, comprehension, and cultivation far surpassing his peers, after observing a few more glances, he had a rough understanding in his heart.
Compared with the Confucian Divine Archery, the shooting speed and medium-range killing capability are roughly the same on average, but the long-distance range could be somewhat lacking.
However, riding the Green Dragon Wind Beast, the speed and agility of Duoda’s motion far exceed that of the Confucian Divine Archery.
