Did he think that the more ancient something was, the better it was?

Do you not understand that the era is progressing?

You’re reversing the progress of time!

Even though Lu Yuan disapproved of Fu Jiu’s inverted cultivation method, in the short term, his ancient corpse transformation could indeed bring him a significant increase in power.

At the very least, if Hook Snake didn’t show some real skills, not to mention defeating Fu Jiu, it was uncertain if he could even escape from Fu Jiu’s hands.

It wasn’t that Lu Yuan was looking down on Hook Snake, but Fu Jiu’s strength was truly extraordinary.

Compared to Fu Jiu, what a pathetic existence Chen Yan was before!

Lu Yuan made a rough estimate.

Either of these two people alone could never be his match.

But if these two were to team up, Lu Yuan’s clone should not be able to deal with them.

Therefore, Lu Yuan made up his mind to wait until one of them emerged victorious before he appeared to fight with the winner.

This wasn’t about picking up scraps, it was about settling things.

Moreover, as someone well-versed in the array, Lu Yuan felt that he could add a unique “fun” to the battle between the two of them.

Where was the fun in a one-sided fight?

Battles should have been filled with suspense!

With that in mind, Lu Yuan secretly took out his Mountain River Medallion and Mountain River Array Diagram.

Although these two were only imitations, the genuine articles were still with Lu Yuan’s main body.

However, even the replicated magic items proved to be more effective than the magic instrument Lu Yuan used to deceive others, a geometric compass.

Using the Mountain River Medallion and Mountain River Array Diagram, Lu Yuan began covertly altering the surrounding geomantic patterns.

Under normal circumstances, Hook Snake and Fu Jiu would have noticed Lu Yuan’s small movements.

However, at this moment, the two people were solely focused on defeating each other, leaving no time to spare for observing Lu Yuan’s actions.

Therefore, they did not notice the changes in their surroundings.

Just after Lu Yuan had finished setting up the array, Hook Snake, who had been suppressed by Fu Jiu, seemed to be ready to take action.

The giant black snake that had been in Hook Snake’s right hand suddenly left Hook Snake’s body.

After the black snake left his body, its body began to expand rapidly.

Within a short period, it grew to a length of several dozen meters.

Faced with the sudden change, Fu Jiu and the Green Hair Corpse immediately stepped back, creating some distance between themselves and Hook Snake.

Hook Snake stood atop the head of the black snake, looking down at Fu Jiu and Green Hair Corpse.

“You are strong, slightly weaker than the cultivator 1 knew before, named Lu Yuan,” Hook Snake said confidently.

“I initially didn’t want to resort to this method to defeat you. After all, employing such means comes at a considerable cost for me.”

“But your strength has surpassed my expectations. This is the second time 1 have been amazed by a cultivator from the Lower Realm.”

“It’s hard to believe that a small Lower Realm like yours can produce so many monsters.”

“However, this also indirectly demonstrates the extraordinary luck of this world, far beyond what ordinary people would expect. It makes me even more excited to see how much luck I can acquire after killing you.”

Hearing Hook Snake’s assured expression, Fu Jiu’s face turned grim, and said, “It’s hard to determine who will live and who will die.”

Looking at Fu Jiu’s unruly appearance, the smile on Hook Snake’s face widened.

He needed the other party’s untamed appearance when facing the heavenly pride.

Because when the danger of death descended, the more arrogant he was at the beginning, the more miserable he became later on.

The feeling made Hook Snake feel a sense of superiority as if he had control over the other’s life and death.

The happiness he felt was something that outsiders could not understand.

With these thoughts in mind, Hook Snake decided not to waste any more time.

The sooner he dealt with Fu Jiu, the sooner he could explore the surroundings.

Hook Snake was genuinely curious about the opportunities present in this place.

“Hiss!”

Under Hook Snake’s command, the enlarged black snake beneath him charged directly at Fu Jiu.

As the huge body was dragged on the ground, a deep ravine was created.

Additionally, a horrifying toxic fog emanated from the black snake.

This toxic fog was not like any ordinary snake venom found in the mortal world.

Instead, it was the corrosive venom unique to Hook Snake.

Even the spiritual energy barriers of the Core Formation Stage cultivator could not withstand this particular snake venom.

Once someone was infected with too much of this snake venom, unless Hook Snake spared him, the other party would be severely injured even if he did not die.

This special snake venom had the power to directly harm the opponent’s divine soul.

Although Fu Jiu had never encountered Hook Snake’s snake venom before, he could sense the imminent danger of it.

Therefore, when faced with the ferocious attack of the black snake, Fu Jiu immediately summoned a blood-colored white bone banner in his hand.

As Fu Jiu waved the blood-colored white bone banner, a large number of ghosts flew out of it.

The dense mass of ghosts charged straight at Hook Snake.

Fu Jiu didn’t stop his movement. He forcefully plunged the blood-colored white bone banner into the ground.

Then, in a very short period, the ground turned into a sea of blood.

Although the area of this sea of blood was not large, it just happened to completely envelop a few of them.

Then, Fu Jiu produced numerous talismans in his hands.

He looked at the huge black snake not far away and threw the talisman in his hand over.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

When the talisman touched the black snake’s body, it immediately exploded violently.

The talismans seemed to be in endless supply as Fu Jiu continuously threw them.

Observing the enormous black snake engulfed in the flames of the explosions, Lu Yuan, who had been covertly observing from the sidelines, was astonished.

With a body resembling that of a zombie, he attacked using talismans.

Wow, so you were walking the path of a Zombie Taoist priest!

After complaining, Lu Yuan began to play his little tricks.

Despite Fu Jiu seemingly suppressing Hook Snake at this moment, Lu Yuan could sense that Hook Snake had not suffered any substantial damage.

A few talismans were simply incapable of posing a significant threat to Hook Snake.

As for the blood-colored domain emanating from the blood-colored white bone banner, Lu Yuan instantly grasped the essence of this domain.

This blood-colored domain contained a substantial amount of death aura.

Engaging in battle within such an environment undoubtedly enhanced Fu Jiu and the Green Hair Corpse’s combat prowess.

However, this wasn’t enough for Fu Jiu to defeat Hook Snake.

This was because his attacks could not cause any effective damage to Hook Snake.

What was the effect of an attack that did not break through the defense?

In that case, let me help you!

During Fu Jiu’s next attack, Lu Yuan quietly activated his divine ability.

Divine ability, the Formless Squall!

As another batch of talismans exploded on the black snake’s body.

The black snake, who had previously been disdainful of the talismans, suddenly let out a miserable cry.

“What happened?”

Sensing the pain of his black snake, Hook Snake finally lost his initial calmness.

Several bloody wounds appeared on Hook Snake’s body.

These wounds were deep, and in some places, the black snake’s blood vessels were visible.

Hook Snake didn’t know what Fu Jiu had done, but he could see that Fu Jiu seemed to possess the ability to harm him.

Hook Snake decided to end the battle quickly.

Thinking of this, he fed his luck to the black snake below him.

With the blessing of this luck, the wounds on the black snake’s body began to recover quickly, and its speed of advancement instantly increased.

In an instant, he arrived in front of Fu Jiu.

Facing the black snake, whose strength had once again increased, Fu Jiu had no better options and could only charge forward.

Escaping was not an option. Only by defeating the opponent could he have a chance of survival.

The Green Hair Corpse by Fu Jiu’s side clearly understood this as well.

Therefore, the Green Hair Corpse and Fu Jiu charged at the snake with fierce expressions.

Before long, the two sides collided.

Fu Jiu and the Green Hair Corpse used their relatively small bodies to start a tug-of-war battle with the black snake.

They were like flies, evading attacks while launching counterattacks.

Normally, their attacks were unable to cause significant damage to the black snake.

However, they couldn’t ignore the snake secretly launching attacks!

Amid the chaos, Lu Yuan utilized his Formless Squall and helped Fu Jiu and Hook Snake fight on equal footing!

Looking at his perfect control over the situation, Lu Yuan felt a secret sense of satisfaction.

To be able to control the situation to this extent, he truly was a genius!
