Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 176 This is the Ending
Just when Fen Yuan was about to kill Miao Xin and Wu Zhan with a stick, he saw a red light breaking through the air from the right side of Fen Yuan, like thunder tearing through the sky, with such force that there was no time to dodge. If Fen Yuan did not stop at this moment, he would be hit. Without thinking, he turned his stick to meet the attack.

"Bang!" A red light exploded, a violent wind blew, and Fen Yuan was actually knocked back more than fifty feet, sitting on the ground. His right arm holding the staff was broken, and the staff flew a hundred feet away.

Everyone who saw it was stunned. They thought Wuzhan was definitely dead, but they didn't expect that at this critical moment, Fenyuan was knocked away in just a moment. Looking at the person who rescued him, he had white hair and a youthful face, an immortal look, wearing a Qing crown on his head, with two strands of silver hair hanging down to his chest at the temples, and wearing a white Taoist robe with a Tai Chi pattern embroidered on the back. He had long eyebrows, eyes like stars, a straight nose, and a smile on his face, just like a real god.

"National Master!" people who had seen him exclaimed. They didn't know when he appeared. Even the ministers who hated the Xiandao Academy were happy at this moment.

"The Imperial Master is finally back!" After seeing this, Daoxuan and others finally felt relieved. The Imperial Master really did not abandon them.

Xu Shi ignored the crowd's exclamations and walked steadily to Miao Xin's side, saying kindly, "Let me come and take a look at his injuries."

Miaoxin closed her eyes tightly, hugged Wuzhan, and waited for death to come, but she didn't expect that she escaped this disaster. In surprise, she opened her eyes and looked at the person who came forward to speak. She knew that he must have rescued her in the critical moment. She reluctantly said, "Thank you!", let go of his hand, and stepped aside.

Mayor Xu leaned forward to check Wuzhan's pulse. After concentrating for a moment, he frowned and thought in amazement, "How can there be such a pulse!" After carefully examining Wuzhan, he took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, poured out a red pill the size of a bean, and said to Miaoxin, "This is the Heart Protection Pill. Young lady, help him take it, it can temporarily protect his heart pulse. As for his weak and peculiar pulse, I don't know the reason, so I dare not make any assumptions."

Miaoxin took the pill and thought to herself, "It's good that my life can be saved temporarily. Once this matter is over, I need to return to my master's sect and report my observations on his condition. Maybe my master will be able to think of a solution." She put the pill into Wuzhan's mouth and helped him swallow it. Then she picked Wuzhan up, sat down next to Jinxingzi, and pushed Qi and blood for Wuzhan.

Fen Yuan stood up. His entire arm was broken, but no blood flowed out. He stared at Xu Shi and said in a deep voice, "It seems that Master Zhishui's trap formation failed to trap you. We still underestimated your cultivation."

Xu Shi stood with his hands behind his back, smiling slightly, "What he stole was just a piece of colored jade, so I naturally didn't try to learn the trap he set up."

"So you have been here all along. Haha, I really admire your calmness. So many people died in Xiandaoyuan, but you turned a blind eye and kept everyone in the dark."

"If I lose my temper, how can I catch all of you rebels and remnants?"

Everyone who heard it was shocked, and they all thought: So many soldiers died, but Xu Shi showed up only then, which shows how ruthless and indifferent he is. In his eyes, perhaps there are only His Majesty and the eternal country, and our lives are like grass.

Xu Shi continued, "The Eastern Zhou Dynasty has long been destroyed, and all the nations have been annexed by Qin. What good will it be for you to follow a lord whose nation has been destroyed? Life is short, and it passes away like morning dew. You have practiced Taoism for decades, so how can you not know why you practice Taoism? If you truly repent, I will not hold it against you. Joining the Immortal Dao Academy will help you attain the Tao and become a god."

Fen Yuan sneered and said, "You really think highly of me. You even lied to me by saying that you can become a god. If you could become a god, why would you stay here?"

Xu Shi smiled and said, "Then where do you think I will appear?"

"Does this mean that you have attained enlightenment and become an immortal?"

Xu Shi said: "The great way is infinite, and all laws are impermanent. Even if you spend your whole life, what you feel and understand is just a drop in the ocean. Moreover, you have different specialties. Even if you become a true immortal, how can you understand everything? You have been studying the art of controlling corpses in secret, but have you ever thought that it would be easily broken by a young man who has no experience in cultivation? At this point, don't you feel that fate is playing tricks on you?"

Fen Yuan said: "Although he broke my technique, it doesn't mean we will definitely lose today. It just takes more effort, and the outcome is still unknown."

"With your cultivation, if you are willing to serve His Majesty, your future will be limitless. It is a pity to waste such a precious gem!"

"You just took advantage of my unpreparedness and cut off one of my arms. It won't be easy to kill me with just this method!" As he spoke, black gas swirled rapidly around the broken arm, and another pale arm appeared. He opened his palm, and the scepter in the distance returned to his hand with a 'swish' sound.

"Since you said so, I will let you make three moves. After three moves, I will break your fake body. Make your move!"

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that Fen Yuan was just a fake body. No wonder he could fly away from a trap dozens of feet high. If a fake body alone had such strength, what about his real body?

Fen Yuan sneered and said, "Okay, take it!" As soon as the words fell, a ball of black mist suddenly rushed towards Xu Shi, as fast as lightning, and it was difficult to see his figure clearly. "Boom!" Xu Shi sent out a red Tai Chi symbol with one palm, and lightning flashed, holding up the huge skeleton gas mass that was still in the air. The black light plane exploded, raising a silent gust of wind, and the skeleton immediately dissipated.

Except for Ji Jie who was still in a stalemate with the three imperial guards, all the other people were watching the duel between the two from afar. Ying Zheng had been under the tight protection of the imperial guards. Only then did he see Xu Shi show up. He was delighted and said, "I knew that the imperial master would never lie to me. That's great, haha!" All his worries disappeared.

Fen Yuan used the force to leap high into the air, his black robe fluttering. He swung his scepter and shot out five hideous skull-like air masses in succession from high in the sky. Each mass of black air carried a cold and gloomy light, roaring and pouring down, covering Xu Shi.

"Five Elements Ghost Qi!" Daoxuan exclaimed. According to legend, to practice this kind of magic, one needs to absorb the souls of the dead, and refine and distribute them in the body of the practitioner according to the properties of the souls. The more souls absorbed, the heavier the ghost qi and the greater the skill. If one can practice to the point of condensing qi into a form, it is the "Five Elements Ghost Qi". If one is hit by it, both the body and soul will be destroyed immediately, and even the gods cannot save him. This kind of magic has long been lost. I don't know how Fenyuan practiced such an extremely evil magic. Xu Shi was motionless, his left hand pinched the seal, and his right palm slapped out five-color Tai Chi talismans in sequence. In just a moment, thunder roared, and colorful light radiated. The spectators did not dare to look directly at the light. Strong winds cut through the face, and the layers were blown away.

Just as he could see clearly, he saw Fen Yuan falling headfirst from the sky. His scepter transformed into a black giant python more than ten feet long. It rushed towards Xu Shi below at lightning speed, like a mountain pressing down on his head. While still in mid-air, the ground around Xu Shi began to crack and collapse.

Daoxuan and Jiang Yuan secretly rejoiced that if Fenyuan used these three moves to attack them, they would probably only be able to block the first move.

Mayor Xu waved his sleeves, which spun and fluttered towards the sky, suddenly forming a sheep-horn cyclone that covered the giant python. The giant python was instantly suspended in the air, unable to move down even half an inch. The black air around it was quickly peeled off by the swirling wind and spun into Mayor Xu's sleeves.

"The Universe in the Sleeve" the old monster Guantian exclaimed, only by practicing to the point of three flowers gathering at the top of the head and overcoming the calamity to become an immortal, can one practice such superior Taoism. This kind of magic only exists in myths and stories. He didn't expect Xu Shi's practice to be so powerful. Could it be that he really cultivated into an immortal body?

Fen Yuan was even more surprised, this move 'Black Python Swallowing the Sun' was his life-long unique skill, once the opponent fell under the black python, even a figure of the immortal level would be crushed into mud. He did not expect that Xu Shi could actually dissolve it with a wave of his sleeves and transform the huge force into a cyclone. If he did not use luck to resist it, he would be drawn into the vortex.

When the black python on Fenyuan's scepter disappeared, Xu Shi shouted: "Three moves have passed!" His figure disappeared immediately, and there was a loud bang, and a huge pit was opened on the ground where he was just now. Xu Shi was still in the same place, but he bent over and grabbed Fenyuan's neck with one hand, pressing Fenyuan to the ground. His whole body was like a piece of brown paper. Everyone was stunned, and no one could see clearly how Xu Shi did it.

Xu Shi smiled slightly and said, "It seems that you can't keep this fake body. I wonder if you have figured it out now?" He gathered his energy with his palm, and "whoosh!" a raging fire ignited, burning Fen Yuan's body into ashes, which flew away with the wind.

After being shocked, everyone in the audience couldn't help but cheer. Such a strange and profound Fen Yuan was eliminated by Xu Shi in just one move. Who else in the world could defeat him?

Xu Shi stood up and shouted to Daoxuan and others, "Kill them all, leave no one alive!"

The few remaining people in Xiandao Academy were greatly shocked. Once Fenyuan was eliminated, the others were nothing to be feared, and they all rushed towards Guantian, Xiao Jinghong and others.

Xu Shi walked steadily to the front of the imperial guards, bowed to Ying Zheng, and said loudly: "In order to get rid of these remnants of traitors, I had no choice but to show up at this time. I have disturbed Your Majesty. I cannot shirk my responsibility. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "This is just the right time. As long as the Imperial Master shows up, I will have a plan in mind!"

Xu Shi glanced at Ji Jie who was fighting fiercely on the other side, and said to Ying Zheng: "I will lead the Xiandao Academy to eliminate these remnants and then report to Your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng said: "Okay, then I'll have to trouble you, Imperial Master!"

Xu Shi said to the three imperial guards loudly: "Please ask the three imperial guards to protect His Majesty. I will leave him to me!"

The three imperial guards had already been unable to hold on any longer. Upon hearing the news, they immediately jumped out and returned to Ying Zheng's side.

Ji Jie was sweating profusely. During the fierce fight, he also heard Xu Shi appear. He knew that the trap set by his master had failed to trap Xu Shi to death. Seeing the three imperial guards retreat, he turned around and looked at Xu Shi, and asked contemptuously: "Are you Xu Shi?"

Xu Shi said: "It is me!"

"Okay, I'll learn a few tricks from you!"

Yu Sisi was killing the Qin soldiers from a distance, while shouting: "My lord, you can't beat him, retreat quickly!"

After hearing this, Ji Jie ignored it, stared coldly at Xu Shi, and started to show his skills with his sword.

"A lord of a fallen country follows a traitor who practices the opposite way. This is the fate of the dynasty. It is a thing of the past. It is often the unwillingness that will cost one's life and property."

Ji Jie said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense and look at my sword!" He swung his sword and rushed towards Xu Shi.
