Chapter 5335: Six Toads Devour the Yuanchen Furnace
refine the materials needed for cultivation. There were three things: Sanjian Shiyuan (a type of corpse ape), the giant skeleton that Lu Xia Tian had previously killed, Tongxin Twelve Ghosts, Luo Qian...After a flash of blades, several bloody paths were cleaved through the ranks of the immortal army. A swarm of demonic monkey-faced ghost bats seized the opportunity to pour in, their bat-headed daggers wreaking havoc wherever they went.
The ordinary celestial army was being slaughtered in retreat. Even Yue Gang and Lin Yunjiao, the two Heavenly Immortal generals, were like tiny boats tossed about on a raging sea. They fought valiantly but their hearts were filled with fear as they struggled to stay afloat.
Several Golden Immortals with higher cultivation levels than them have already fallen to the Ghost Bat Blade. For shrimp like them, it's almost instant death upon contact.
Faced with such a terrifying existence, they had almost no ability to resist. However, several Great Luo Jinxian, including Mu Yang Fairy, failed to arrive in time for reinforcements. Relying on them alone, there was no way they could withstand it.
These ordinary celestial armies were almost immediately crushed by the bat demon.
Muxi glanced this way. In the midst of chaos, casualties were unavoidable. Her cultivation wasn't weak, but she couldn't possibly attend to every situation.
The Eastern Yang Army was the only force she could directly command, and even when rescuing someone, she had to prioritize them.
Besides, the safety of Jiukuang Xian and Fang Xu was far more important than that of these ordinary immortal soldiers. Mu Xia needed the immortal army to open up a situation, but what she still needed for the Yinbing bat sand later on were two Great Luo Jinxian to accompany her.
If these two were to be killed or injured, with another unfamiliar Great Luo Immortal, she might not have had the opportunity to make a secret attack.
At this time, Mu Xia also encountered some resistance. There were too many monkey-faced ghost bats, and even with her cultivation level plus the Jade Mustache Immortal Mirror, she couldn't kill them all.

Several tentacles of jade light swept back and forth, leaving a trail of death and carnage in their wake.
But these casualties did not deter the enemy in the slightest, and the surrounding area remained pitch black.
Even if Mu Xia wanted to reinforce those ordinary immortal soldiers, it was met with heavy resistance. Furthermore, the Wine Mad Immortal had been injured by the Bat Queen's blade before, his Purple Gourd damaged, not to mention he had also sustained some minor injuries himself. Although he ultimately escaped danger with Mu Xia's help, supporting that blow had taken its toll. Facing two equally powerful Monkey-Faced Ghost Bats now, both sides fought fiercely, and for a time, the Wine Mad Immortal showed no signs of defeat.
...but also felt exhausted mentally.
Whoosh, the sharp claws attacked from both sides, Ghost Bat's speed was truly astonishing. Coupled with its fierce offensive, even Jiu Kuang Xian had some difficulty blocking it for a while.
The key is that his previous protective measures were broken by the Ghost Bat Blade, so he wouldn't dare to let the other party attack easily.
To hold onto something for too long will inevitably lead to loss. If you can't make any changes, you'll likely become passive in the future.
However, Fang Xu was facing three opponents alone. The cultivation levels of the others were obviously higher than his, but their combined strength still proved more powerful. Whoosh, several claw shadows flashed past, leaving behind several ice-like claw marks in the air. On the other side, a king-level ghost bat opened its mouth, causing a gust of wind and sand to surge. Inside, the sand crystals gathered into black-grey, curved blades, slashing towards Fang Xu like a storm.
On the other side, dozens of black chains writhed, each bearing a hooked tip. Once they latched on, you would be completely immobilized.
Surrounded on three sides, Xu looked to be in grave danger. However, Fang Xu stood firm upon a gossip stone disk. As the eight sections of the disk buzzed and spun like stones, they released a great deal of stone qi into the surrounding area.
Fang Xu's figure flickered within the formation, stepping on the Bagua pattern, appearing and disappearing like a ghost. Facing three opponents, he fought with ease and skill.
Fang Xu waved his Tiger-Phoenix fan, and suddenly several strange beasts with tiger heads and phoenix bodies took flight, their roars shaking the heavens as the green phoenixes spread their wings.
One after another, hurricanes raged outward, clashing with the means of several powerful enemies. In some places, both sides were deadlocked, while in others, they were pierced by each other's attacks.
At this time, Fang Xu relied on his gossip lock yuan disc to dodge the opponent's attacks one after another, and for a while, he couldn't do anything about it.
Ke Fangxu was both offensively and defensively capable, his speed wasn't slow. With the intention of showcasing his strength in front of Mu Xia, he tightly entangled with her, not letting either of them escape, increasing the pressure on both Jiu Kuang Xian and Mu Xia. At this time, Fu Er, relying on his Ghost Bat Knife, was causing those ordinary immortal soldiers to retreat step by step, resulting in numerous casualties. If no one stopped him, these ordinary immortal soldiers would certainly be defeated, and even if Dong Yang's army was elite, they would still be unable to fight alone... Now it depends on who can break the deadlock first. Mu Xia's eyes flickered. The Heavenly Court was determined to get their hands on Yin Bing Fu Sha. Even if they suffered setbacks now, there would be a continuous stream of troops arriving later.
If she doesn't get the Yinbing Bat Sand first, someone else will. Then the situation will naturally become completely out of control.
The ordinary celestial army's losses wouldn't affect the overall situation. She, along with Wine-Mad Immortal and Fang Xu, must do their best to kill or severely injure the king-level ghost bats to break the stalemate. Then, they would press forward, leaving behind the lower-ranking ghost bats to grab the treasures.
"She actually thought these low-level ghoul bats could hold her back" Mu Xia's mouth twitched slightly.
The Bat King has already completely infiltrated the ranks of the ordinary immortal army. Although his strength is formidable, if something unexpected happens here, it won't be easy for the other side to fully reinforce in a short time.
This is her chance. But first, she'll have to get rid of these low-level ghoul bats.
Mu Xia extended her palm, and a crimson stove spun and flew out from between her hands. The stove had three legs and six sides, with a three-legged green toad on each side. The toads gazed upwards with their mouths wide open, as if capable of devouring everything.
“Six Cauldrons Swallow the Yuan Furnace!” Fang Xu, who was dealing with three King-level Ghost Bats, was also keeping a close eye on Xia’s battle.
He had originally thought that Mu Xia's cultivation was slightly inferior to his, and if anything unexpected happened on Mu Xia's side, he could support her in time.
However, Mu Xia was indeed extraordinary. With the Jade Whisk Immortal Mirror, his combat power was superior, far surpassing that of him and Jiukuang Xian. This was the result of standing on the shoulders of giants.
Whether it was the Jade Mustache Immortal Mirror or the Six Toad Swallowing Yuan Furnace, for these three Great Luo Jinxian and several King-level Ghost Bats present, getting even one of them would already be an incredible feat. Yet, Mu Xia managed to possess both.
The Six Toad Swallowing Yuan Furnace doesn't work as flexibly as the Jade Whisk Fairy Realm. While it excels in defense against opponents of the same rank, its offense is somewhat lacking.
However, it can be used in advance to infuse the power of the law into it, and you can also put immortal crystals in it to drive this thing. For low-level enemies, its lethality is extremely terrifying, far exceeding that of ordinary half-step Xuan Tian level treasures. Dongli Immortal Monarch gave these two treasures to Mu Xia because he considered this aspect. On the battlefield of immortals and demons, besides being able to deal with opponents of the same rank, you also need the ability to handle large-scale battles. For example, now Mu Xia can only break the situation by relying on the Six Toad Swallowing Yuan Furnace.

Six toads croaked, their calls rising one after another. Then each toad spat out a white orb of light, which gathered inside the small furnace.

The Six Toad's Swallowing Yuan Furnace expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye. The white orb inside also grew larger and larger, rotating rapidly to form a huge vortex.
A terrifying pull emanated from the vortex. A large number of monkey-faced ghost bats around hadn't reacted yet before being sucked into the furnace, disappearing into the white light ball and dissolving directly, then vanishing without a trace.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of monkey-faced ghost bats disappeared into thin air. More ghost bats poured in from all sides, raining down like a storm. Only those monkey-faced ghost bats at the Golden Immortal level could barely maintain their shape.
Even those of celestial beauty could only delay for a moment before being dragged into the furnace and melted away with little resistance.

Mu Xia was originally under the intensive attack of a swarm of bats. At this time, he suddenly used this furnace, causing terrifying damage.
In the face of those celestial army monkey-faced ghost bats, even with heavy casualties, they remained fearless. After all, the flesh and blood of the celestial soldiers were of an unspeakable benefit to them, a primal yearning.
Cooperative action among groups can also minimize the fear of death.
Facing these six furnaces of swallowing yuan, they couldn't gain any benefit. These low-level ghosts had little resistance at all. Once they fell into them, their bodies and souls would be destroyed. They couldn't help but fear this outcome.
A giant hole was ripped through the dense swarm of ghost bats. The hole grew larger and larger, allowing Mu Xia to break free from the lower-tier bat horde's entanglement. She flashed and darted towards Jiu Kuang Xian with lightning speed.
During his journey, Mu Xia passed by several Golden Immortal-level ghost bats. Mu Xia struck out with several palms in succession, but the palm techniques were not lethal to the Golden Immortal-level monkey-faced ghost bats.
It was merely enough to force the opponent's hand to defend, and when they finally managed to block Xia Mu's attack, the astonishing suction power of the Liuchán Tóngyuán Lú proved irresistible.

They were slowly dragged into the cauldron, engulfed by flames. These several Golden Immortal-level ghost bats struggled desperately but still held on within the Six-Toad Swallowing Yuan Furnace for a while.
However, this was only a temporary respite. The persistence of the Golden Immortal-level ghost bats did not increase the confidence of the bat swarm by even a little, but instead exacerbated the spread of fear.
Even a fearsome monster who often boasts and executes lower-ranking creatures is now facing death, let alone these lowly thugs.

Múxià seized the opportunity to slip away, passing through the crowd of ghost bats and quickly appearing beside Jiǔkuángxiān's left-hand king-grade ghost.
This king-level ghost bat knew Mu Xia's abilities, or perhaps it was terrified of the Jade Whisk Immortal Mirror to its very core. Its first reaction was to evacuate this place and join forces with Bat Queen. Only Bat Queen could withstand the Jade Whisk Immortal Mirror.
No one expected that Mu Xia could get rid of the bat swarm's entanglement in such a short time, and Mu Xia's strength was obviously still above them. Breaking through the obstruction was precisely for this blow, how could he let the other party escape Before the slightly slender king-level ghost bat could retreat, Mu Xia pinched a magic formula, and the top jade fairy mirror shone brightly, a piece of jade light enveloped the king-level ghost bat. This jade light didn't have much lethality, but it could restrict the opponent's speed. As expected, the slightly slender king-level ghost bat screamed in terror, this jade light greatly reduced its speed, as if trapped in mud. The speed that was usually proud of itself couldn't be exerted in any direction at this time.
Then several tentacles from within the Jade Whisk Immortal Mirror extended outward, and several more reached toward the other enemy of the Wine-Crazed Immortal.
Pfft... The king-level Ghost Bat's claw shadows continuously obstructed the Jade Tendrils, but with little effect. It was inevitably entangled by them.
At this moment, even if the Bat's Sting couldn't return reinforcements in time, and even if they rushed back, the blade was already at their throat. No matter how quick their reflexes were, they wouldn't be able to save their comrade.
A bloodcurdling shriek echoed through the air as this king-grade Monkeyfaced Ghost Bat, bound tightly by Jade Whiskers, struggled with all its might. Every ounce of its strength was poured into escaping, yet all it accomplished was to tighten the grip of the Jade Whiskers even further.
Though seemingly gentle, the power of the legal system seeped into his body through Yushu, causing the King-level Ghost Bat's own powers to become disrupted.
Puppies, his body was broken into several sections by the jade whiskers. Just as these severed bodies wanted to scatter and flee, their speed couldn't increase at all within this jade light.
Several more jade whiskers flew over and struck the severed limbs. In an instant, these fragments exploded into dust in the jade light and vanished without a trace, along with their souls. Fang Xu in the distance gasped, even if he faced one opponent alone, he believed that defeating him wouldn't be a problem. Destroying his physical body might not be impossible either, but to completely obliterate him, both physically and spiritually, would be incredibly difficult...Yet, Mu Xia accomplished this with ease. With just a jade whisker immortal mirror, she directly reversed the tide of battle. This half-step Xuan Tian Immortal artifact was truly remarkable!
Fang Xu looked at him with envy. If he had such a treasure in his hands, his strength and status would be incomparable to what they are now.
"Still trying to escape!" Jiujianxian roared with laughter. Before, he had been suppressed by Fuchen, sustaining minor injuries and exhausting himself greatly. As a result, he was later pressed down by two king-level Ghost Bats.
Of the three, he was in the most dire straits, being driven to the brink of danger several times, almost being seriously injured on the spot. Mu Xia swiftly dealt with one in three moves, and also restrained another, so Jiukuangxian managed to escape his predicament. Naturally, wanting to teach those who had attacked him a lesson, he went after them. However, two against one was still too much for him to handle.
Jiukuang Xian's body swayed, like someone who had been drinking heavily. His movements seemed slow and unsteady, as if intoxicated. But within that drunken appearance, the purple fire cloud blazed with brilliance, like a collapsed sky pressing down on the Wang-level ghost bat whose forehead bore a wound.
This King-grade Ghost Bat, having witnessed the gruesome deaths of its kin just moments ago, was already terrified. It desperately tried to escape, but before it could fully break free from the Wine Immortal's grasp, several jade whiskers slithered towards it like venomous pythons.
“Elder Bat, save me!” The scar-faced king-level ghost bat cried out in terror. He couldn't even deal with the Drunk Immortal alone, let alone be surrounded by the more formidable Mu Xia.
At this time, the Bats were still wreaking havoc among the ordinary fairy armies. Even if they wanted to rescue their own kind, it was beyond their reach.
Although he lost two powerful kin, he managed to decimate a large number of immortal soldiers. Even the elite Dongyang army, without the cover of immortal troops on their flanks, could only retreat slowly.
To lose in the east and gain in the west, this deal can't be considered a loss. It's a win-win situation, I suppose. Amidst piercing screams, Yushu entangled with the scarred Wang-class Ghost Bat. On his side, Jiu Kuang Xian unleashed a palm strike that landed squarely on its forehead with a deafening boom. The scarred Wang-class Ghost Bat exploded, its soul scattering within the jade light.

The second, Great Luo Jinxian-level King Ghost Bat thus perished along with its physical and spiritual form.
"Let's go stop them, or else countless immortal soldiers down there will be killed here." Jiukuang Xian scanned the battlefield of the immortal army. By now, it had been ravaged by Fuqin, with blood flowing like a river and losses being significant.
