554: The Immortal Ma Yuan has come knocking on our door!

The Eleven Zha opened their eyes one after another, each full of energy, their eyes clear and deep, their aura many times stronger than before!

What was even more rare was that their Foundation was incredibly solid, without any signs of instability due to the surge in power.

"I feel... like I can lift a mountain, and beat ten of my former self!" Fifth Zha clenched his fist, causing the air to crackle with explosive sounds.

"Me too!" The other children echoed in agreement.

Nezha felt the surging yet harmonious power within his body, as well as the seamless connection with his four Magic Treasures, and felt a hint of complex emotion toward the mysterious donor of the Medicinal Pill.

This Medicinal Pill was truly a timely gift.

"Master, Grandmaster, are you helping me?"

Just on the third day after the Eleven Zha had initially refined the Golden Core and become familiar with their newfound power, outside Chentang Pass, ominous winds howled, and the clouds were gloomy and bleak!

A monstrous Evil Qi rolled in from the direction of the East Sea. Standing on the clouds was a figure, tall and thin, with disheveled hair, wearing a ghastly white Daoist robe, with deep-set eye sockets and pupils that were an eerie, ghastly green.

In his hand, he held a bone lamp, its flame a sickly green, illuminating his face to make it look even more sinister.

It was none other than the Master of the Bone Cave on Skeleton Mountain, the Qi Immortal Ma Yuan!

He had received the final image transmitted by his Disciple using a secret technique before death, witnessing with his own eyes his beloved Disciple, Bone Immortal Master, and over ten other Disciples dying tragically at Qianyuan Mountain. The killer was actually a wet-behind-the-ears child, using the famous Magic Treasure of Immortal Master Taiyi!

A wave of rage surged into his heart, and he treated the order from the Sect Leader Tongtian, commanding them to guard their Immortal Cave and not descend the mountain, as nothing more than a breeze past his ears.

He immediately left his seclusion, charging straight toward Chentang Pass with surging Killing Intent!

"Li Jing! Hand over the killer Nezha and his accomplices! Otherwise, everyone in Chentang Pass today will be blood-food in my mouth! I will eat them all, leaving no one, young or old."

Ma Yuan's voice was like a cold wind from the Nine Netherworlds, sweeping over Chentang Pass, causing countless commoners to collapse to the ground in terror, trembling.

This old Devil Head ate human hearts to refine his Qi, and behind his head, he had refined a Sky-Supporting Hand condensed from his Qi. It could change size at will, gather and disperse at will, grasp mountains and seize the moon, clench tight to crush people, and was exceptionally formidable.

Li Jing and Lady Yin heard the news and climbed the city tower. Seeing Ma Yuan's terrifying momentum, their hearts sank.

This Ma Yuan had been famous for a long time; he was a well-known expert in the Jie Sect with extremely high cultivation.

"Fellow Daoist Ma Yuan, I can explain this matter, it's all a misunderstanding..." Li Jing tried to explain.

"A misunderstanding?" Ma Yuan laughed sharply. "My Disciple is dead, his bones are gone, he died at Qianyuan Mountain, died at the hands of your son, what else is there to explain? Li Jing, you indulged your son in committing murder, harming my Jie Sect Disciples; today I will definitely make this whole city pay with their lives!"

After speaking, he shook the bone lamp in his hand, and the sickly green flame surged, transforming into a giant green fire Dragon that bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it pounced toward Chentang Pass!

Before the flames arrived, a bone-chilling, soul-eroding aura had already enveloped the entire city!

"Not good!" Lady Yin was about to pull the heaven shaking bow.

"Mother, let us handle it!"

Ten figures, like ten cannonballs fired from a cannon, shot up into the sky from the General-in-Chief's mansion, fearlessly meeting the green fire Dragon!

The leader stepped on the wind fire wheels, held the fire-tipped spear, the universe ring fluttered, and the qiankun circle hummed; it was Nezha!

Behind him, the ten brothers and sisters each displayed their Divine Ability. Those with clairvoyance and clairaudience insight into opportunities, those with copper heads and iron arms faced it head-on, those capable of flying and escaping the earth flanked and supported, and those who could summon wind disrupted the opponent. The youngest, Twelve Zha, remained on the pass, ready to provide healing at any time.

"What a group of brats, it's just as well to send you all to the afterlife together to accompany my Disciple!"

Seeing this, Ma Yuan did not get angry but laughed instead. The green fire Dragon split into ten, each attacking one of the ten people.

The hand behind his head flew out, growing larger in mid-air, and directly grabbed toward them.

Nezha saw the huge hand blotting out the sky and sun as it grabbed down. Not only was he not afraid, but his blood surged, and he shouted sharply: "Just in time! Brothers, break it!"

"Understood!" The nine brothers replied in unison, instantly scattering.

Sixth Zha gave a roar, the metallic luster around his body surged, and he rushed straight toward the sickly green fire Dragon!

"Hey! This little flame is just scratching an itch for your Sixth Brother!"

With his Physical Body, he clashed against the green fire, knocking the fire Dragon until sparks flew everywhere, blocking the most violent first wave of impact for his brothers and sisters behind him.

At the same time, Fifth Zha's arm muscles bulged, he sank his waist and braced his stance, directly grabbing a small mountain and throwing it toward Ma Yuan.

A sharp light flashed in Nezha's eyes. The wind fire wheels under his feet spun rapidly, and his body turned into a streak of red and blue light, his speed soaring to the extreme. He instantly bypassed the frontal entanglement of the Dragon and the coverage of the sky-blotting hand, rushing straight toward Ma Yuan himself on the clouds behind!

"Old Daoist devil! Capture the bandits by capturing the king first!"

Ma Yuan was slightly startled, not expecting this little child to be so decisive and swift, but after all, he had cultivated for a long time and had rich combat experience.

His sickly green pupils contracted, and the huge "Sky-Supporting Hand" behind his head suddenly retracted. With fingers spread wide and carrying a howling cold wind, it grabbed directly down at Nezha!

Nezha didn't hesitate, slightly adjusting the wind fire wheels, grazing the edge of the huge fingers by a hair's breadth. The scorching flames collided with the cold Death Qi in the palm, making a "hissing" strange sound.

He shook the fire-tipped spear in his hand, the Three-Flame Spirit Fire gathered at the tip, and he backhandedly thrust the spear toward the wrist of the giant hand!

"Small tricks!" Ma Yuan sneered, the giant hand's wrist turning, surprisingly flexible as if boneless.

"The opportunity is here!" Eighth Zha had been hiding, waiting for an opportunity. Seeing it now, he took a deep breath, aimed his head at the back of the giant hand, and, like a cannonball, suddenly launched himself out!

"Watch my Iron Head Skill!"

"Dong—!" A dull, loud sound like striking a giant bell!

Eighth Zha's head collided fiercely with the giant hand condensed from Qi, actually exploding a circle of visible air ripples!

Although the giant hand was solid, it was slightly stunned by this powerful, Protective Aura-breaking collision.

"Good opportunity!" Ninth Zha's legs instantly elongated, like two huge copper pillars, sweeping toward Ma Yuan's lower stance. "Old Daoist devil, get down here!"

At the same time, Tenth Zha puffed out his cheeks, aimed at Ma Yuan's face, and blew hard!

A violent Protective Aura wind arose out of thin air, with the faint sound of wind and thunder within, whipping up smoke and dust that obscured vision and disrupted his spell-casting.

Seventh Brother flapped his wings, his speed the fastest. Taking advantage of the moment Ma Yuan's vision was blocked, his lower stance was disturbed, and the giant hand was slightly stunned, he swooped down like a golden lightning bolt, his sharp wingtips slicing directly at the arm Ma Yuan used to hold the bone lamp!

Ma Yuan finally changed his expression! He didn't expect this group of children to be so formidable, each with their own strengths, and their power was quite ferocious.

In his haste, he had to withdraw part of his focus to deal with the siege, and the power of the giant hand grabbing toward Nezha immediately weakened by thirty percent.

"universe ring, bind!" Nezha seized this fleeting opportunity. The universe ring on his arm turned into a red lightning bolt. Instead of binding the giant hand, it bypassed it like a spirit snake, heading straight for Ma Yuan's neck!

Ma Yuan let out a strange cry and had to raise the bone lamp to block.

The green lamp flame collided with the red ring, erupting with a piercing shriek as the evil fire and spirit light eroded each other.

"qiankun circle, strike!" This was the moment Nezha had been waiting for!

The qiankun circle that had been hanging by his side shone with great golden light, tracing a tricky arc. Bypassing the frontal confrontation, it smashed heavily toward the back of Ma Yuan's head with lightning speed!

Although Ma Yuan had the Origin of the Sky-Supporting Hand behind his head, his focus was scattered at the moment, and his protective Divine Ability was weakened. Feeling the malicious wind behind his head, he barely tilted his head. "Bang!" The qiankun circle smashed onto his shoulder blade!

"Crack!" A clear sound of bone cracking rang out!

"Ah!" Ma Yuan let out a painful roar, his figure staggering, and the light of the bone lamp in his hand dimmed as a result.

The phantom of the huge Sky-Supporting Hand also shook, its color dimming significantly.

Sensing its Master was injured, the green fire Dragon let out a silent roar, its attacks becoming even more frantic.

But Sixth Zha and Fifth Zha held firm, while Ninth Zha and Tenth Zha continuously harassed and restrained it, preventing it from returning to aid.

"Old Daoist devil, take my spear!" Nezha, pressing his advantage, shook the fire-tipped spear in his hand.

He then secretly brought out the golden brick, which grew in the wind, becoming the size of a door panel, shining with heavy golden light, and smashed it down toward the back of Ma Yuan's head!
