I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 485 - 349 Angry Eyes Golden Fool_2

Not long after, with an expression of delight, Li Mengnan grabbed the Vajra Pestle and hurled it fiercely forward.

Du Yu stretched out his hand, and as Bai Yujing lowered his flight a little, Du Yu caught the Vajra Pestle tightly in his grasp.

"Hurry, let’s tear apart the Demon Robe!" As he spoke, Du Yu gripped the Spirit-Slaying Pestle and pressed it to the left side of his chest.

Beneath the Spirit Ruins Acupoint—Shenfeng Acupoint.

A voice full of majesty thundered in Du Yu’s ears: "About time!"

"Hurry up and make the contract." Du Yu almost blurted out, "Stop wasting time."

What’s the point of all this ’about time’?

I wanted to lure you all out of the city, take the fight to the wilds and keep the people safe—shouldn’t I?

Ancient Spiritual Artifacts are so precious, shouldn’t our first thought be to subdue them?

How was I supposed to know the Heaven-covering Robe would suddenly come after me, shifting into its true form and shrinking enough to fit through the Mountain and Sea Bell’s Teleportation Gate?

How was I supposed to know there were people in that apartment? And if I hadn’t used the Bell, what would have happened to that couple?

This mission—the situation just kept changing, again and again.

Du Yu believed that at each juncture, he’d made pretty sound choices!

"Buzz!"

The Shenfeng Acupoint trembled violently, and the Spirit-Slaying Pestle instantly merged into Du Yu’s chest.

In the Spirit Ruins Acupoint above, the black mist woman stood at the entrance of the pagoda, head lowered as she gazed at the surging red clouds below.

Now, both upstairs and downstairs in the Shadow Gu Tower, someone had taken up residence...

But as for the arrival of a new Spiritual Artifact, the Shadow Gu Tower didn’t care much, because Du Yu had made it clear—he was just borrowing it for a while.

Downstairs would soon be empty.

But in the future, there would surely be new Spiritual Artifacts taking up residence.

After all, each person could contract two to three Spiritual Artifacts; whether it was two or three depended on the individual.

Any more than that, and it became completely impossible.

No one could withstand the energy drain from the Spiritual Artifacts—holders would become mentally exhausted, and their combat power would plummet.

The Shadow Gu Tower understood its master very well.

With Du Yu’s temperament, he’d definitely push things to the limit, ensuring he got as much as he could under the rules.

The black mist woman silently withdrew into the tower, raising her eyes to the battered Heaven Returning Wood, and slowly lifted her palm.

Time to refine some more Demon Breath.

In this coming great battle, the master would need it.

"Hiss!" Demon Soul·Heaven Returning Wood struggled in agony, its scream tearing at the soul, but it could not escape this prison, nor avoid the fate of being refined.

The moment the black mist woman withdrew inside the tower, she also sensed the tremor from the acupoint upstairs.

Clearly, the Mountain and Sea Bell had been summoned again.

The Shadow Gu Tower’s perception was spot-on—over the city, the figures of Du Yu and Bai Yujing flickered in and out of view.

"Descend, let’s eat the fruit first!" Du Yu said aloud, while communicating through the Spirit Contract in his mind, "Spirit-Slaying Pestle, how do I use you?"

Spirit-Slaying Pestle: "You must stab the tip of the pestle into the Artifact Spirit, and I will attach the Furious-eyed Vajra to your body."

Du Yu: "Artifact Spirit?"

Spirit-Slaying Pestle: "The corpse of the wandering soul—that is the Artifact Spirit of the Demon Robe."

"Ah!" Du Yu more or less understood, and grabbed a Jia Rong Grass Fruit from beside him.

While flying low to the ground, Bai Yujing also ate a string of fruits.

The old voice of Jia Rong Grass echoed in Du Yu’s mind, "Have your master chase after the white battle robe, heading east."

Du Yu: "East?"

Jia Rong Grass: "Go straight."

"Nai~" Bai Yujing seemed to sense something, stepped onto the void, and soared higher into the sky.

"Crack!" A bolt of lightning struck a hundred meters ahead!

The thick bolt of lightning twisted and writhed, utterly terrifying.

Bai Yujing jerked to the side, tracing a perfect arc through the air, and continued flying up.

Du Yu squinted slightly, his gaze sharp as a hawk’s.

After barely half a minute’s flight, Du Yu’s eyes suddenly narrowed!

On a precipitous mountain far away, the trees grew densely, the entire forest looking alive.

Each giant tree was like a giant dragon, displaying incomparable flexibility as they bent and weaved about wildly.

Cold Jade·Heaven Returning Tree Sea!

All along, Yang Qingqing had only summoned the Rose General Spirit to fight; the last time Du Yu had seen the Heaven Returning Wood was in the Bamboo Grove Realm, when Master Qing was bathing in the lake...

Clearly, the woman was getting serious this time.

"Rumble!"

There was thunder, but also explosions!

The mighty power displayed by the Heaven Returning Wood had enraged the heavens above.

Lightning crashed down, and at the same time, one of the towering giant trees transformed from wood into jade?

The Jade Tree soared, crystal clear and smooth.

Cold Jade·Jade Tree and Silver Flowers!

The jade giant tree, as exquisite as a work of art, bloomed with beautiful flowers and let out a dazzling light.

The tree and flowers exploded together!

"Hiss!!!" An angry roar shook the heavens—the white-robed wandering soul was enraged beyond reason!

In his phantom state, he could pass through all physical matter; this forest should have posed him no obstacle at all.

But this forest was no ordinary woodland. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

It was the Heaven Returning Wood’s Demon Skill·Heaven Returning Tree Sea!

Each of the giant trees was wrapped in dense Demon Breath; the white-robed wandering soul couldn’t pass through and had to go around.

And with the explosion of the jade flower trees, the white-robed wandering soul took damage as well!

Physical-type demon skills were ineffective against him.

But magical attacks clearly worked.

"Huh?" Yang Qingqing gave a soft, questioning sound.

The white-robed wandering soul, though blasted away and injured, seemed not to be badly hurt?

When the white-robed wandering soul was forced to take damage, the solidified battle robe he formed had truly astonishing defense!

In other words, the true body of the Heaven-covering Robe had terrifyingly strong defense!

Keep in mind, the demon skill Yang Qingqing’s Heaven Returning Wood used was far above ordinary Cold Jade Quality.
