Chapter 0444: Summoning the Sky Lion

Qin Yun and his group had just entered the Yunlong Mountains when they encountered the dragon.

"Ever since my breakthrough, I've been pretty good at hiding my aura. The dragon shouldn’t be able to sense my Sky Lion blood, right?" he thought, puzzled.

Shui Tianzi muttered a curse, "It’s those Bloodline families—their bloodline aura drew the dragon!"

Zi Qingcheng said, "I’ll check it out. Stay in the carriage."

Qin Yun realized the dragon wasn’t after him but the warriors from the Bloodline families.

"Those Bloodline family members don’t hide their aura, so they’ve attracted the dragon. Isn’t this just to make everyone team up and kill the dragon?" Shui Tianzi was very displeased.

She’d thought they’d have an easy trip to the Immortal Tomb Wilderness, but now, they had encountered a dragon.

To be safe, she sent Xiao Guoer and Xiao Dianxin to Old Lady Du’s carriage.

Old Lady Du’s group had warriors of the Xuan Martial realm. If any sudden situation arose, they could handle it.

The carriages all stopped. Many people rushed out of their carriages to watch after hearing the dragon’s roar.

The dragon’s roar came from far away, and even from the sky, it was invisible.

"Keep moving—don’t be scared. We’ve got plenty of Martial Kings; even two dragons are no match!" a Bloodline Martial King shouted.

Qin Yun doubted they could subdue the dragon, even with so many Martial Kings.

Zi Qingcheng got back in the carriage and kept it moving.

So, a grand procession of luxurious carriages moved through the Yunlong Mountains’ forests.

In a corner, Qin Yun closed his eyes and used his strong mental energy to sense what was happening outside.

He’d narrowly escaped death in the Yunlong Mountains before, so he knew the dangers.

Shui Tianzi and Zi Qingcheng stayed alert, their faces serious.

The Yunlong Mountains were full of hidden dangers. A single misstep could mean death.

Night faded, and morning sunlight slowly covered the land.

Despite the sunlight, the Yunlong Mountains remained eerie and terrifying.

Qin Yun preferred the night—he could vanish into the shadows.

After traveling all night, they reached the heart of the Yunlong Mountains.

But they were still far from the Immortal Tomb.

Another day passed, and dozens of carriages suddenly stopped because the ground was trembling slightly!

Then, a dragon's roar was heard!

This time, the dragon's roar was clearer, indicating that the dragon was nearby.

"I wonder if they can take down that dragon?" Zi Qingcheng said with some worry, knowing the dragon's strength was formidable.

The ground shook harder and harder.

Qin Yun, who had his eyes closed, suddenly sensed a familiar presence.

After opening his eyes, he uttered gravely, "The Netherworld Celestial Lion is nearby!"

"A dragon is approaching!" a panicked shout suddenly came from outside.

A clear dragon roar resounded in their ears—the dragon was right above them!

A deafening roar!

A powerful aura surged, sending carriages flying in all directions.

Outside, the ground continued to rumble as many Martial Kings flew out to battle the dragon.

There had been several tall mountains nearby, but in that instant, they were leveled by the dragon’s unleashed power.

When Qin Yun and the others emerged from the carriage, they saw a colossal, awe-inspiring dragon in the distant sky, surrounded by dozens of Martial Kings who seemed minuscule in comparison.

However, the Martial Kings’ attacks were formidable, causing the earth to tremble continuously. Shockwaves, like raging tempests, ravaged the surrounding forests.

Giant trees were uprooted and scattered like twigs.

"Cousin, stay alert!" Qin Yun said gravely. "A Netherworld Celestial Lion is close by!"

There were also many Xuan Martial and Spirit Martial realm warriors here. They had all come out of the carriages to shield the juniors while watching the battle in the distant sky.

At that moment, Qin Yun’s face darkened, and he hissed urgently, "Cousin, run with me!"

After saying this, he bolted in a specific direction.

Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi, unsure of the situation, quickly followed him.

Roar!

A shroud of black mist engulfed the forest.

The Netherworld Celestial Lion had appeared!

Although this Netherworld Celestial Lion was not particularly large in size, it was a match for the dragon.

Many Xuan Martial realm warriors, aware of the Netherworld Celestial Lion’s might, immediately fled with the younger generation.

"Is Grandma Du and the rest okay?" Qin Yun whispered. He had been the first to lead Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi away.

"Don’t worry!" Zi Qingcheng’s face was equally grim at this moment.

Shui Tianzi snorted lightly, "It’s all because of those idiots from the bloodline clans. They couldn’t keep a low profile and ended up attracting both a dragon and a Netherworld Celestial Lion!"

Their trek to the Immortal Tomb Wilderness was not as smooth as everyone had imagined. In less than two days, the group had already been scattered.

Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi both had communication jade talismans to contact Grandma Du, so they could still stay in touch even if separated.

Qin Yun sensed that the aura of the Netherworld Celestial Lion was not following them, which put him at ease.

Just as he was feeling relieved, he suddenly sensed several auras of the Spirit Martial realm.

"It’s those idiots from the bloodline clans!" Shui Tianzi said coldly. "Why are they chasing us?"

Zi Qingcheng was also angry, "It’s Xiong Zixuan and his group!"

Qin Yun and the others were running through a dense forest at breakneck speed, while the few bloodline warriors behind them were even faster.

Those bloodline warriors were all young Spirit Martial realm warriors. In the past, they had pursued Shui Tianzi and Zi Qingcheng.

Now, taking advantage of the chaos, they were chasing after them with malicious intent!

"They're coming, I'll hide first!" Qin Yun said, leaping onto the crown of a large tree, then using the transparent bead to make himself invisible.

At that moment, the bloodline warriors swiftly flew over, surrounding Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi.

Seeing this, Qin Yun carefully took out the Xuan King Cannon!

The Xuan King Cannon he had crafted had an internal storage space filled with many cannonballs.

Those cannonballs were specially refined by him, made by mixing crystal cores of spirit Demon Beasts with a large amount of beast oil.

He had condensed thousands of pounds of beast oil into fist-sized black oil blocks, then refined them into the crystal cores of spirit Demon Beasts, capable of producing an extremely powerful explosive force.

Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi were both dressed in tight outfits suitable for battle, while the bloodline warriors of the Spirit Martial realm were dressed in luxurious attire.

"Qingcheng, where is your cousin? That guy made us lose big time!" Xiong Zixuan asked with a cold smile.

"He's with Grandma Du!" Zi Qingcheng replied.

Xiong Zixuan laughed loudly, "I just saw him with you. I didn't expect that idiot to be almost as fast as you!"

Despite Shui Tianzi's usual flirtatious demeanor, she now had a fierce look, her face cold with anger as she shouted, "Don't block us, move aside!"

"You two bitches, you made fools of us back then. Now that we finally have a chance to make you pay, how could we let you go so easily?" A burly man sneered with a lecherous grin.

Zi Qingcheng sneered, "Back then, you just wanted us to be your cultivation vessels, didn't you? Don't think we didn't know your intentions!"

"Not just back then, even now, you are still the best vessels in my heart! I must say, the women from our bloodline families are too overbearing. You ordinary humans are much better, we can do as we please with you!" A burly man covered in black smoke laughed heartily.

There were four bloodline warriors; even if there were only two, Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi would stand no chance against them.

"You two wenches, I'm going to show you my power, hahaha..." Xiong Zixuan tore off his shirt, revealing his muscular body.

Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi were both angry and anxious.

Qin Yun closed his eyes and, through the black Thunderfire Sky Lion martial spirit, unleashed a wave of Great Dao's power!

Suddenly, dark mist filled the surroundings, the ground trembled slightly, and a black vortex appeared in the sky.

A lion's roar echoed as a black Sky Lion, over ten meters long, plummeted from the heavens!

The sudden appearance of a Netherworld Celestial Lion was terrifying, sending the bloodline warriors fleeing in terror.

Qin Yun leapt down swiftly from the tree, dispelling his invisibility, and pulled Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi onto the back of the Netherworld Celestial Lion.

The Netherworld Celestial Lion roared and bolted forward.

The two captivating women, who had just been frightened by the Netherworld Celestial Lion, now found themselves riding on its back with Qin Yun.

"Cousin... what’s the deal with this Netherworld Celestial Lion?" Zi Qingcheng asked in disbelief, touching the lion, confirming its real existence.

She knew Qin Yun had a Sky Lion totem, so she could piece it together.

Shui Tianzi, unaware of Qin Yun's identity, assumed the Netherworld Celestial Lion had been tamed by him.

"Don't ask too many questions!" Qin Yun smiled. "This Sky Lion isn't very powerful, but it's enough to scare those guys!"

Shui Tianzi, who had just been surrounded by several bloodline warriors, had been secretly despairing. Now that she was saved by Qin Yun, she felt much happier and mischievously hugged Qin Yun, her delicate hands wandering all over his body.

Zi Qingcheng watched with irritation and snorted lightly, "Water sprite, stop touching my cousin!"

Shui Tianzi was sitting behind Qin Yun, hugging him from behind, her fragrant body pressed tightly against his back, her delicate hands wandering all over his body.

Qin Yun didn't know what there was to feel, but the warm hands against his body made him feel quite comfortable.

"I like him, so I’ll touch him. What’s the problem?" Shui Tianzi giggled.

Qin Yun suddenly said in a deep voice, "Those guys are catching up! They realized this Sky Lion isn't very strong and are chasing us."

After saying that, he made the Sky Lion return to the Nether Realm, then quickly pulled the two women and used the Piercing Mystic Art to pierce through a large mountain ahead.

Inside, there was a cave. Qin Yun led them into the cave and quickly withdrew the power of the Piercing Mystic Art.

His face was a bit pale; using the divine ability with two people drained a lot of his energy.

"We'll deal with them tonight!" Qin Yun said, then sat down on the ground to rest.
