The Stone Mother’s movent was already not quick, and with the Vermilion Bird Ring constraining it, its flexibility was extrely low, making it impossible to match the speed of the Flying Sword.
When the Flying Sword slashed, it had no way to dodge.
With a resounding clang, two deep cuts appeared on the Stone Mother’s body, almost penetrating halfway through.
Normally, since the Stone Mother was entirely composed of hard rock, it had strong defense and lacked real weaknesses. Even if its head was cut off, it could continue moving.
A Tier One Flying Sword could only leave a faint sword mark on it, unable to cause harm—it was like scratching an itch.
However, the Qingyin Flying Sword was a Tier Two Flying Sword. Enhanced by the power of the Taihe Cave Heaven Heart thod, coupled with the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword Technique, this one sword could easily obliterate an ordinary Tier One Spiritual Artifact.
Especially against such a stone body.
Struck by two swords, the stone body also felt pain, causing the Stone Mother to beco even more enraged.
It struggled to summon a stone wall, blocking the pursuit while also controlling a wide range of rubble from all around, crashing loudly toward the three led by Lu Yuanshan.
In the face of this wave of rubble, Lu Yuanshan remained unflustered.
He once again deployed the Water Elent Shield, forming a water shield defense wall to block all the rubble.
Then, with one hand, he swung the Vajra Ring, smashing the stone wall blocking the way into pieces, leading Lu Changfeng and Lu Zhiwei in pursuit of the Stone Mother.
The Stone Mother was born in the ore vein and was extrely familiar with the terrain here, having long transford the surroundings into a cave mansion, with channels dug through in all directions.
If the opponent escaped, finding it in these tunnels would inevitably take so ti, and there would also be risks of ambushes by the Stone Mother.
Now was the ti to seize the victory.
"Collect!"
Knowing that the Stone Mother must not be allowed to escape, Lu Zhiwei slightly opened her crimson lips and remotely controlled the Vermilion Bird Ring to pull the Stone Mother closer.
The Vermilion Bird Ring responded with enormous pulling force, dragging the Stone Mother toward Lu Zhiwei’s location.
This caused the Stone Mother to be lifted directly from the ground by the Vermilion Bird Ring.
Taking advantage of this, Lu Yuanshan once again wielded the Qingyin Flying Sword, slashing straight at the Stone Mother’s head, cutting it off in one strike.
After the head fell to the ground, the Stone Mother’s body still struggled in mid-air, wildly manipulating Earth Attribute Spiritual Qi to gather for another round of massive stone attacks.
At this ti, Lu Changfeng also acted, deploying the Blazing Sword Box to strike at the yet-to-form massive stone.
Six Paths of Fiery Sword Qi instantly shattered the massive stone before it could fully form.
Then, an azure-colored sword light appeared again, slicing off another arm of the Stone Mother in one stroke.
Compared to the Qingyin Flying Sword, the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword was sharper, enough to break the Stone Mother’s body and chop it into rubble.
But as a Qi Cultivator, such intense, high-output attacks were manageable for Lu Zhiwei only two or three tis; if used excessively, it would be overwhelming.
Magical Power would be greatly depleted.
On Lu Changfeng’s end, the Thunderfire Peak and Blazing Sword Box could only provide a certain level of containnt, restraining the attacks exerted by the Stone Mother.
They did not inflict significant damage to the Stone Mother itself, and he couldn’t confront the Stone Mother head-on.
The main attack was still dependent on Lu Yuanshan.
Stricken by the Vermilion Bird Ring, the Stone Mother exerted Foundation Establishnt Magical Power, struggling mightily, causing the Vermilion Bird Ring to constantly tremble, showing signs of potential shattering.
Ultimately, it was a Tier One Spiritual Artifact, adequate against Qi Cultivators, but against the Stone Mother, a Foundation Establishnt Spirit Monster, holding it this long was already quite remarkable.
"Brother, it’s up to you now!"
Seeing that the Vermilion Bird Ring might not hold much longer, Lu Zhiwei reluctantly recalled the Vermilion Bird Ring, exchanging a glance with Lu Yuanshan.
"Leave the rest to ."
The three collaborated and had already shattered the Stone Mother’s body. Lu Yuanshan’s current Magical Power consumption wasn’t significant, and he was confident in successfully slaying the opponent.
As the Vermilion Bird Ring disengaged from the Stone Mother, its body lost the pull of the Vermilion Bird Ring and imdiately started falling toward the ground.
During this period, the Stone Mother was unable to move in mid-air or fly.
Lu Yuanshan seized the opportunity, wielding the Vajra Ring aggressively toward the Stone Mother.
The Vajra Ring bore formidable pressure, landing squarely on the Stone Mother’s body.
The Stone Mother uttered a miserable scream. Despite its stony body’s strong defense, it couldn’t withstand such mighty attacks, and with a boom, its body shattered apart.
The body scattered on the ground, breaking into eight or nine pieces.
But that’s not all.
The Stone Mother’s life force was exceptionally strong, capable of controlling Earth Attribute Magic to counterattack, very resilient.
However, having been struck heavily, its body couldn’t reassemble quickly, impacting the casting of Magic.
Lu Yuanshan knew the Stone Mother’s formidable nature well and wouldn’t give it the chance.
He took the opportunity to end it.
Risking depleted Magical Power, Lu Yuanshan recalled the Vajra Ring, rcilessly smashing the remnants of the Stone Mother’s body, delivering the final blow.
anwhile, Lu Zhiwei also took action, disregarding Magical Power exhaustion, wielding the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword to crush the Stone Mother’s body.
With the cooperation of both, the Stone Mother had no ti to counterattack, and with a wail, it beca a pile of debris, no longer capable of reassembly, completely annihilated.
After slaying the Stone Mother, the trio took a long breath, slowly gazing at each other.
"In the cave where the Stone Mother resides, there’s still so Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk. Yuan, go retrieve it."
Only then did Lu Ping’s voice echo in the three siblings’ minds.
Lu Yuanshan listened, knowing the significance of the Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk, and a hint of delight swiftly appeared on his face. Following Lu Ping’s instructions, he went to retrieve the Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk.
Lu Changfeng and Lu Zhiwei, anwhile, began handling the Stone Mother’s shattered body as directed by Lu Ping.
Since it was born with the ore vein, the Stone Mother’s body could also serve as Artifact Refining materials and could even be refined to convert into Fire Source Stone.
There were plenty of Fire Source Stones in the ore vein, properly extracted later, so there was no need to refine the Stone Mother’s body into Fire Source Stones.
"If we take the Stone Mother’s body back and make good use of it, we can craft more than two Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts."
"For Foundation Establishnt-level Stone Mother’s body, the utility is quite excellent."
As she spoke, Lu Zhiwei’s gaze turned to Lu Changfeng, saying, "Second Brother, you possess the Golden Qian Mother and Child Blade, Blazing Sword Box, and others, all are Tier One High-Grade Spiritual Artifacts, quite a distance from Tier Two."
"This ti after we return, I will first help you reinforce your artifacts, try to upgrade them to Tier Two Lower Grade. In this way, your combat capabilities can increase by over thirty percent."
Witnessing Lu Changfeng’s efforts against the Stone Mother, although limited by the Blazing Sword Box and Thunderfire Peak’s capabilities, Lu Zhiwei decided to aid him in enhancing his artifacts.
The elder brother, however, carried two Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts.
"Then I will leave it to you, little sister."
Being able to acquire Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts made Lu Changfeng naturally delighted, and he readily agreed without hesitation.
After the two finished dealing with the Stone Mother’s body, Lu Yuanshan returned with the Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk.
"Brother, the ones in your hand are Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk..."
Seeing the Spirit dicine Box in Lu Yuanshan’s hand, Lu Zhiwei’s gaze grew sowhat fervent.
