Chapter 446: Decisive Battle Against the Rabbit Yanluo

By the mouth of the abyss, the formation of black fog that encapsulated a large patch of land trapped countless cultivators of the alliance, preventing them from breaking free. The formation of black fog even isolated sound. No one could glean any information.

By the outskirts of the black fog, two figures remained standing.

One was Yin, the avatar whom the Tiger Yanluo had possessed. Beside him seemed to be an ordinary cultivator, but anyone who was qualified to stand beside Yin had to be of monstrous strength.

"Ox Yanluo, you really aren't picky, are you? You're even willing to possess the physical body of a Wingform-realm cultivator?" Yin smirked.

"If you don't like it, why don't you send me a live Heaven Immortal?" the Ox Yanluo joked.

Naturally, Yin had no interest in enriching his opponents. He smirked. "Aren't you worried that I'll finish off your avatar instead?"

"Who said that this was the only avatar I had? What's more, do you think you'll be able to withstand my power just because you can kill one of my avatars?" the Ox Yanluo replied disdainfully.

Yin snorted.

Clearly, it was easy and not particularly meaningful for one Yanluo Lord to kill another's avatar. The two Yanluo Lords were enemies, but they had already fought each other for a hundred thousand years. Attacking each other's weak avatars was beneath their station.

"What do you think about the formation before us?" the Ox Yanluo asked.

"It's clear that the Rabbit Yanluo and the crown prince of Dayin are in cahoots with each other. They're planning to trap Xiao Nanfeng here. The Rabbit Yanluo must truly be angry with him," Yin said.

"I think you're even angrier at Xiao Nanfeng, aren't you? Did he bully you aboveworld?" the Ox Yanluo smirked.

Yin scoffed. He refused to delve into the specifics.

"Do you think the Rabbit Yanluo's main body is here, too?" the Ox Yanluo asked.

"She must have guessed that we'd be keeping an eye on her, so I don't think she would expose her main body so easily—especially not with such a huge commotion," Yin replied, frowning.

"In that case, what are you doing here? Why don't you head back now?" the Ox Yanluo advised.

"Why don't you head back?" Yin retorted.

"So you're not certain, either. In terms of probability, it's unlikely that the Rabbit Yanluo would do so. Furthermore, if she planned on doing so, why bother to cooperate with Yin Tianci?" the Ox Yanluo joked.

Yin, however, narrowed his eyes. "I feel like something's amiss. Why would the Rabbit Yanluo decide to work together with Yin Tianci, and what's up with this formation? There must be some secret that we don't know about."

The Ox Yanluo seemed similarly suspicious, but they knew too little to deduce anything conclusive.

"Why don't we barge in and have a look?" the Ox Yanluo suggested.

"The formation seals that without from that within. It's too late to enter—but your main body could probably shatter it," Yin said.

The Ox Yanluo snorted. "You want my main body to waste time with this mess while yours continues to absorb the various Yanluo Lords' bodies uninterrupted, augmenting your strength? Ha! You can strike at the Rabbit Yanluo with your main body if you want."

"My avatar suffices for handling all matters out here, unlike yours. It's pitifully weak," Yin replied.

The Ox Yanluo sniffed in distaste.

He dropped the conversation and continued to stare at the formation of black fog not too far away, trying to identify what was going on within.

Within the formation of black fog, the Rabbit Yanluo was eyeing Xiao Nanfeng carefully. She exuded killing intent as she awaited her opponent.

Xiao Nanfeng took a deep breath. "Senior, the Rabbit Yanluo has guessed our intentions, and there's no need for you to hide any longer. I'll leave her to you, Senior, and take care of the riffraff on your behalf."

Xiao Nanfeng immediately donned his arhat armor.

The Rabbit Yanluo waited expectantly as Yin Tianci made an expression of surprise. He seemed to have guessed something.

Not too long later, the void before Xiao Nanfeng started to shimmer. A large blood peach tree appeared in everyone's sight.

"This blood peach tree again? Is that the monk you've been talking about all this time?" Yin Tianci asked.

The Rabbit Yanluo's eyes lit up with excitement. "It is you! How did you end up in such a state? You're a tree spirit now!"

The blood peach tree formed words with its scattered petals. "If you want to fight, Rabbit Yanluo, come at me."

The Rabbit Yanluo narrowed her eyes. "Oh? Can't you speak? Is your cursed spiritual avatar incomplete, or is it still being controlled or subdued by another? Ha, you damn monk, it doesn't look like you've had a good time aboveworld yourself!"

"My cursed spiritual avatar is none of your concern. The Tiger and Ox Yanluos must be waiting outside the formation. Aren't you going to make a move? Or do you intend to wait until their main bodies get here, too?"

The Rabbit Yanluo's eyes narrowed. "So be it!"

She was being particularly cautious. With a wave of her hand, roiling black fog formed behind her.

"What did you hide within?"

"You'll see in no time." The Rabbit Yanluo rushed toward the blood peach tree.

She was wreathed in black fog, and a frightening aura seemed to surge forth from it.

Xiao Nanfeng began to put on an act. He pretended to blanch as he leapt away and shouted, "Senior, be careful! Something dangerous awaits within the fog!"

At the same time, the blood peach tree sprayed out copious amounts of white fog into its vicinity. The tree and the mist headed straight for the Rabbit Yanluo.

The white and black fog sizzled where they met, but the majority of the fog quickly intermixed. The Rabbit Yanluo and the blood peach tree were immediately wrapped up within two clouds of fog, from which heated fighting could be heard.

"What? You have a Yanluo Court too? This is the Snake Yanluo's Yanluo Court—you must have killed her!" the Rabbit Yanluo thundered.

The fog roiled as a frightening aura exuded from it. The rabbit-headed humanoids shivered in fear.

"Are you alright, Senior?" Xiao Nanfeng called out into the fog.

The sound of violent fighting continued to ring out. No one responded to him.

"It's doing very well. Xiao Nanfeng, to think you would be hiding yet another Yanluo Court! If not for the fact that I activated my own as well,you might really have been able to take me down." An ice-cold voice could be heard from within the crowd of rabbit-headed humanoids.

Xiao Nanfeng turned to see one of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatar emerge. Her physical body was that of Lady Yaoguang's mother. Her face was cold, her tone enraged.

"My senior's making a move itself. Prepare to die," Xiao Nanfeng retorted coldly.

"Oh? Do you think I don't have a Yanluo Court of my own? The two Yanluo Courts' strength will counteract one another, and just who will win is yet undecided. It can't even speak—it's nothing more than a broken cursed spiritual avatar. Does it really think it can beat me? I'll kill it and seize its strength for myself!" the Rabbit Yanluo's avatar proclaimed.

"My senior is handling your main body. As for this avatar of yours, I suppose I'll take care of it."

Xiao Nanfeng shot toward the Rabbit Yanluo's avatar, still clad in his arhat armor. "Hegemon's Fist!"

"Insolence!" the Rabbit Yanluo's avatar exclaimed.

She met Xiao Nanfeng's golden arhat fist for fist in an overwhelming explosion. Unexpectedly, she was the one who was forced back from the impact.

"It looks like your physical body is rather weak, isn't it?" Xiao Nanfeng's eyes lit up.

"Attack him together!" the Rabbit Yanluo's avatar commanded.

"Understood!"

The rabbit-headed humanoids all rushed over instantly. There were ten Heaven Immortal rabbit-headed humanoids in their midst. They struck simultaneously in a devastating blow that forced Xiao Nanfeng back.

Xiao Nanfeng cried out, "You aren't guaranteed victory just because of numerical advantage. Without your main body here, you won't be able to hold me back for long. Again!"

He shot forward, fighting one against ten. The fight devolved into a melee, but he seemed to be fighting on par with the Rabbit Yanluo's subordinates.

Frowning, the Rabbit Yanluo's avatar herself shot forward. A huge tempest raged where they fought.

Yin Tianci watched on coldly from a distance.

Just then, Lan Jiguang strode forward—no, another of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars. She commanded, "Yin Tianci, the sooner we take down Xiao Nanfeng and claim his imperial seal, the sooner you can claim Yaoguang for yourself. Why aren't you making a move?"

Yin Tianci immediately replied, "I need to be watching over the mouth of the abyss to prevent any cultivators aboveworld from making it in. I don't have time to participate in the battle. Furthermore, with your skill, shouldn't it be easy for you to take down Xiao Nanfeng?"

"Enough of this nonsense. Are you afraid of fighting? Do you think I'd launch a sneak attack on you?" the Rabbit Yanluo demanded.

"Of course not! We're on the same side."

"Then are you afraid that Xiao Nanfeng has a trump card up his sleeve? You really are cautious, aren't you? Do you intend to do nothing but reap the spoils of battle?"

"Rabbit Yanluo, I'm, telling the truth. There's a group of strong cultivators from the Shangqing holy land amassing on the other side of the mouth of the abyss. I need to observe them."

"You had better not be lying to me, or I won't forgive you," the Rabbit Yanluo said coolly.

"I would never! My avatar is holding them back outside. Unfortunately, he's a bit weak, and he might struggle at any moment. That's why my body has to remain on guard here, ready to assist my avatar at any time."

"Keep watching, then. If you're unwilling to deal with Xiao Nanfeng yourself, then loan me your arhat armor and let me have a go at it."

Yin Tianci nodded, retrieving a suit of armor. "I wish you success, Rabbit Yanluo."

The Rabbit Yanluo's avatar snorted as she melded with the armor, then rushed into the battlefield. With a sneak attack, she forced Xiao Nanfeng back.

Yin Tianci smirked. He murmured inwardly, "Rabbit Yanluo, do you really think I don't understand your plans? You must be fighting for some incredible cultivation resource with that peach tree. My subordinates are waiting outside the mouth of the abyss. Once the two of you have been weakened, they'll fight their way down. I want Lady Yaoguang and whatever opportunity, whatever prize, the two of you are fighting over. Keep fighting. I'll take it all, haha!"
