Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 915: Luring the Attack

Seeing that the Daoist elder had chosen Victorious Buddha, an awkward smile appeared on Immortal White Tiger's face. "Ah, this...."

He said, "Could you choose someone else? We still have quite a few demon cultivators from the monkey race...."

The Daoist-robed elder furrowed his brow slightly. "No need, he will do."

Immortal White Tiger thought for a moment. He sighed and said, "Senior Lin, I won't hide it from you. This demon cultivator is here at the request of an old friend. I owe him a favor, so..."

Lu Changqing and the others immediately became tense. If they truly offended these Daoist cultivators, they would likely suffer the consequences today.

When the Daoist-robed elder had first appeared, he had suppressed thousands of demon cultivators on the mountain with a single move. Even Immortal White Tiger had been forced to lie flat on the ground, unable to resist in the slightest. The elder's cultivation and abilities were unfathomable!

"This is your personal debt; it has nothing to do with me." The Daoist-robed elder smiled lightly. "You're lucky. This time, all three major Dao sects from the Zixu Empire are here. The other two sects don't have the best temperaments. If they had come to visit, your demon cultivators would have been hurt far worse."

Immortal White Tiger couldn't help but curse inwardly. You old dog! Hurt far worse? Could they be hurt any worse!

Since their arrival, over twenty demon cultivators from Jade Void Mountain, ranging from Qi Refining to Foundation Building Realm, had been killed. They had cultivated for decades or even centuries and this was their outcome! It was truly pitiful!

Immortal White Tiger sighed inwardly and waved toward Victorious Buddha in the distance. Forget it....

"Victorious Buddha, come here."

He hoped to send these Daoist cultivators away quickly. He didn't want to continue entertaining them. It was truly detrimental to his mood.

Tiger Mountain Lord and Profound Green exchanged concerned glances when they saw Immortal White Tiger call for Victorious Buddha. Their hearts sank, filled with worry.

"You two need not worry. I will be careful," transmitted Victorious Buddha to them.

He then stepped out of the crowd with a calm expression.

"A Golden-Eyed Demon Ape." The Daoist-robed elder smiled and stroked his beard, addressing his disciples, "Who among you would like to practice the demon-suppressing technique?"

"Elder Lin, I'll do it."

A young Daoist stepped forward, his cold gaze landing on Victorious Buddha. He didn't waste any words, "You may strike first."

Victorious Buddha didn't hesitate. A flash of golden light appeared in his eyes, and massive qi and blood surged through him. In an instant, the stones beneath his feet cracked open, leaving deep footprints that stretched for several inches.

A demon cultivator's physique was far superior to that of a human cultivator. Victorious Buddha intended to exploit this aspect. If he could make contact with his opponent's physical body before they made their move, he believed he could win. He turned into a blur, appearing in front of the young Daoist.

The young Daoist looked at this scene, and a faint sneer flashed in his eyes. "Heavenly Movement, Shifting Shadows."

In an instant, the young Daoist transformed into a burst of spiritual qi, vanishing and reappearing several meters away. Victorious Buddha's punch missed, causing him to stagger back several steps.

The young Daoist shook his head slightly. "Demon cultivators are still just demon cultivators. They rely solely on brute force, without understanding the subtleties of the Dao Techniques."

Without a word, Victorious Buddha turned and charged again, only for the young Daoist to dodge using the same technique again.

The demon cultivators of Jade Void Mountain began to realize what was happening—they were being toyed with.

The contempt in the young Daoist's eyes grew, and he seemed to grow bored. He raised his voice once again. "By my command, the three elements in harmony, suppress the demon ape!"

A talisman made of condensed spiritual energy appeared out of nowhere and flew toward Victorious Buddha.

As soon as it appeared, all the demon cultivators present felt discomfort in their chests. This technique was clearly designed to suppress demon cultivators, exerting a force that targeted their demonic aura, restricting their qi and blood flow, making it difficult to utilize their physical advantage.

Victorious Buddha felt a mountain-like pressure sweeping toward him from all directions, as though he was carrying a massive weight on his back. His movements grew sluggish.

Seeing that, the Daoist-robed elder smiled at Immortal White Tiger and said, "This technique is specifically effective against monkey demons. Monkey demons are agile, but once this method is applied, their strengths are weakened, making them much easier to subdue."

Immortal White Tiger smiled along, but his heart grew heavy. He, too, was a demon cultivator with a nimble physique—this method would also greatly hinder him.

Boom!

The spiritual talisman struck Victorious Buddha. A flash of lightning and thunder erupted, and the protective spiritual barrier around Victorious Buddha shattered instantly. His fur was singed, and large patches of his skin began to rot.

The demon cultivators gasped in shock and anger. "A Lightning technique!?"

This wasn't just a sparring session—the Daoist cultivators were clearly treating them as genuine demon enemies, not mere practice targets.

Lightning techniques, especially those of the most extreme Yang nature, were highly destructive. They not only caused immense damage to ordinary cultivators but were even more devastating to demon cultivators!

Seeing that the talisman was still in effect, burning Victorious Buddha, both Tiger Mountain Lord and Profound Green glared at the young Daoist. Had their fellow demon cultivators not been in their way, they would have already rushed out.

"Don't be rash. If you act recklessly now, you may very well lose your life. Victorious Buddha is only suffering from superficial injuries. His life is not in danger."

The young Daoist furrowed his brow as he saw that Victorious Buddha hadn't uttered a word. After a few moments, he withdrew his technique.

Victorious Buddha exhaled in relief, his face etched exhaustion. He felt as though he had given all his strength. Just as he was about to leave, the young Daoist said to the Daoist-robed elder, "Elder Lin, I still wish to try a few more techniques."

The Daoist-robed elder smiled faintly. "Would you like to change the opponent?"

The young Daoist glanced at Victorious Buddha, smiling lightly. "No need. He's fine."

Immortal White Tiger's expression changed as he heard this.

The Daoist-robed elder's smile remained.

"Immortal White Tiger, you don't have any objections, do you? My disciple has come all the way here; it wouldn't be right to let him leave without trying a few more moves."

Immortal White Tiger considered his words carefully. "Senior Lin, this demon has already been injured. If the battle continues, his life might be in danger. How about this, I'll step in personally and let your disciple try his techniques against me."

Lu Changqing and the others subtly tensed. If Immortal White Tiger stepped in for a spar personally, the Jade Void Mountain's reputation would take a massive blow.

However, Victorious Buddha was special. Immortal White Tiger couldn't afford to let him die on Jade Void Mountain.

The Daoist-robed elder smiled even more widely, his tone growing cold. "Do you think you can dictate the affairs of my Spirit Void Dao Sect?"

Immortal White Tiger immediately fell silent, silently cursing the elder.

"Senior Brother Victorious Buddha!" Tiger Mountain Lord finally couldn't hold back and roared, "I'll take your place!"

Victorious Buddha looked at Tiger Mountain Lord with a stern expression. "Junior brother, go back."

Then, he turned his gaze to the young Daoist and asked softly, "Is it because I didn't cry out earlier that you wish to see me suffer?"

The young Daoist smiled lightly. "That's not the case at all. I just think you have a strong vitality and can withstand a few more of my moves."

Victorious Buddha nodded slightly. "Then, please, make your move."

The young Daoist was about to act when a dark cloud appeared in the sky, drawing the attention of everyone present.

They looked up in confusion. This wasn't a cloud at all. It was clearly a flying Immortal Boat.

Realizing the Jade Void Mountain's embarrassing blight was about to be exposed, Immortal White Tiger's face turned grim. "Who is coming? The timing couldn't be worse."
