Chapter 1888 (1.1887) Golden Core Demon

“It’s not impossible,” Wu Chen said with a smile. “But nowadays, whoever possesses the Dugu Nine Swords is most likely to be our enemy.”

"They must be martial arts practitioners from the prison city, Master." The murmurs of Yuuko, the courtesan of Gobancho, were gently transmitted through the Ω screen.

"It definitely is." Wu Chen deliberately reminded everyone of the rules of martial arts battle royale games: "Just like everyone's question about whether a peerless weapon will be picked up by someone else, this is also the most classic and captivating 'adventure plot' in martial arts storylines. Even a useless person can dominate the world and become the supreme martial arts master if they have a lucky start. Similarly, even a genius can only suffer a crushing defeat and become a disgrace to the martial arts world if they have a disastrous start. 'Adventure' is the so-called 'golden finger'. It can influence the direction of the plot and even the fate of the characters in the story."

"Could it be that being put into a furnace and refined into a golden elixir is actually a 'fortuitous encounter'?" Shinano female ninja Sanada Yuhi couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe, by comparison." Wu Chen was rapidly deconstructing the spiritual memories of the "Dugu Sword Furnace" that he had just recorded in his mind, in order to find the key to cutting off the plot divergence.

"Master, what should we do?" Without delay, Captain Gobancho courtesan Yuko asked softly.

The energy circuit of the "Dugu Sword Furnace," which Wu Chen had just deconstructed in his mind, directly provided the answer: "Xi Zi, the Maoshan Sect's three treasures of Zixia—the 'Jade Cauldron,' the 'Seven Star Lamp,' and the 'Taiyi Divine Crossbow'—can break the 'Dugu Sword Furnace.' Just do this and that..."

"Yes, Master." Captain Gobancho courtesan Yuko made a quick decision: "Sisters, proceed according to plan."

"Received, Captain." Team 2 responded in unison.

"Does the Jade Cauldron contain the primordial spirit of Zhang Susu, the 16th generation successor of the Maoshan Sect?" Captain Gobancho courtesan Yuko asked the fox spirit carrying the magical artifact.

"Exactly," the fox spirit hurriedly replied. Ever since she was possessed by the thousand-year-old fox demon, this body's actions and behavior were no longer her own.

Seeing her reserved demeanor, Captain Gobancho courtesan Yuko asked again, "What is your name, sister?"

"We two originally had no names or surnames. Later, because our elder sister's original form was destroyed, her primordial spirit resided in a monument commemorating the eternal stability of the Chen family's mansion. Therefore, my sister and I took Chen as our surname and named ourselves 'Changzhi' and 'Xiaoqing'." With this question and answer, the cyber fox spirit gradually calmed down.

In other words, in the original storyline, the original form was shot and destroyed by the Taiyi Divine Crossbow, leaving only the primordial spirit (which had not yet been refined into a true form) to escape, becoming a wandering ghost, roaming the Three Realms. Six hundred years later, it hid in a monument in the Chen Family Building in Hong Kong. The thousand-year-old fox demon from "The Fierce Ghost Fox Spirit" was named "Chen Changzhi," while the fox spirit possessed by the thousand-year-old fox demon was named "Chen Xiaoqing," who robbed zombies in "Mr. Vampire." According to the Maoshan Sect's classification, those who have cultivated for less than 500 years are called "fox demons," with shallow cultivation, and even hunting dogs can smell their fox scent; those who have cultivated for more than 500 years can become spirits, with profound cultivation, and even hunting dogs can no longer smell their fox scent; those who have cultivated for a thousand years and then absorbed the essence of 108 strong men can achieve great demonic power and be ranked as great demons.

The two sisters are each other's alternate counterparts, and both happen to be fox spirits. Now, with the "Secret Realm Drink" achieving the separation of body and soul, the two fox spirits have simultaneously transformed into "two (one) sister bodies," similar to the trinity of the Arcee sisters, sharing a single spark core and a single consciousness. The transforming model is a two-headed turbine fox that can be freely combined and disassembled. This is the result of model adaptation optimization. Otherwise, it could only adapt to the female version of the Autobot twins' brakes and fenders. Obviously, this is not the best choice.

"Very good." Being able to choose one's own name is one of the signs of a significant enhancement in the individual branching storyline. Another fact that all players in the city know is that minor characters are all nameless "passersby."

"Call her out."

"Hmm." The cyber fox spirit Chen Changzhi muttered incantations, and the smooth jade cauldron spun and emitted smoke from its seven orifices. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Susu, the 16th generation successor of the Maoshan Sect, appeared gracefully.

"Heaven and earth share one lineage, the stars shift and yin and yang are governed; within the Purple Cloud Temple, one cultivates true nature, within the Jade Cauldron, one refines the primordial spirit." Sure enough, each person recited a poem to set the scene: "What brings you here... eh?" Clearly, the changes in the two fox spirits were immediately noticed by the Maoshan female disciple who had cultivated within the Jade Cauldron for 600 years: "You two have actually... separated your spirit and flesh, refining your true forms?"

“If it weren’t for Master’s other arrangements, my sister would also have joined my Cyber ​​sect.” The courtesan Yuko of Gobancho replied with a smile.

"Who is this 'master' you speak of, sister?" Zhang Susu didn't dislike the courtesan who had no trace of fox spirit aura.

"She is the mistress of my sisters." The courtesan of Gobancho, Yuko, looked around and answered softly, "She ordered us to come here to exorcise the demon and avert disaster."

"I believe you." Zhang Susu had cultivated within the treasure cauldron for 600 years, her primordial spirit just one step away from ascending to immortality. Her cultivation would naturally advance by leaps and bounds.

“Very well then.” The courtesan of Gobancho, Yuko, gave him instructions: “Just do this and that… and the evil calamity here will be averted.”

"Feasible." Upholding the righteous path and eliminating demons, the Maoshan disciples were duty-bound to step forward. Even without the cyber fox spirit Chen Changzhi using incantations to summon her, Zhang Susu, from the moment she entered the Guanyin Hall, had used the Jade Cauldron to sense the overwhelming malevolent energy within the alchemy furnace, indicating the presence of a powerful demon. However, being trapped inside the cauldron, she was powerless to act and, in her haste, didn't know where to begin. After being enlightened by the courtesan Yuko of the Fifth District, she immediately understood. As the saying goes, "A master's skill is immediately apparent." Being from a cultivation sect, they naturally possessed a deep understanding of how to set up formations, cast spells, and slay demons. She understood immediately.

"Sisters, form ranks!" At the command of Yuuko, the courtesan of Gobancho, the cyber fox spirit instantly transformed into her female warrior form. In her hands wielded a Cybertronian plasma energy sword and shield! The flying sword formed from her fox tail was also a versatile weapon composed of shapeshifting metaparticles powered by a dark matter engine!

Cybertronian energy weapons use high-frequency oscillating plasma to cut metal, equivalent to laser cutting technology in the real world—truly capable of slicing through hair and cleaving iron like butter. Also, as mentioned before, the Cyber ​​Banshees of Base 0326 are officially known as the Third Faction Cybertronian Banshees; please note this.

"Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Zhen, Lie, Qian, Xing!" With these nine words of mantra, Zhang Susu, a female disciple of Maoshan, activated the Taiyi Divine Crossbow in her hand!

A beam of golden light shone directly at the "Dugu Sword Furnace".

With a "ding," sparks flew.

The "Dugu Sword Furnace" folded like a fan, instantly unleashing the nine swords into one. Then, it straightened from its curved shape and rebounded upwards. The broad and slender sword blade hovered in mid-air, blocking the great demon that should have been refined into a golden core.

"This is..." Although they were somewhat prepared, everyone present was still shocked by the true appearance of the Golden Core Demon in the furnace.

A great demon, clad in Taoist robes and armor, sat cross-legged in mid-air, with a human head and a snake's body, and a total of five heads.

On the left and right are two beautiful women's heads, the head in the middle has been severed at the root, and in the hands is a bloodless head of a woman with long hair and an indistinct face.

"The Four Beautiful Snake Women are from the original storyline of 'Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio: Ghosts and Foxes,' the 'Four Consorts of the Chaotic Demon King: Xing Xiaolu, Qin Hong, Yuan Wen, and Xu Jingshan.'" Wu Chen, with his full-dimensional vision activated, bypassed the courtesan Yuko of the Fifth District and reminded the female warriors present: "The headless corpse is the Chaotic Demon King himself. And the beautiful head he held in his hands comes from... Xiahou Ying, the aunt of Prince Xiahou in the storyline of 'The Nine Swords of Dugu'!"
