From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

Chapter 167: Slay the Sword Embryo, Break the Demonic Aura, and Regain the Dragon Girl's Light!

In the Annan Royal City, almost all the common people noticed the huge noise coming from the palace.

The magnificent palace in the center of the royal city was built after King Jingyang condensed his golden body. He then mobilized the manpower and material resources of Annan and used countless spiritual materials to build it.

This palace, which symbolizes the supreme power of King Jingyang, is more than a head taller than all the other buildings in the city, allowing one to overlook all living beings and have a panoramic view of the entire city.

This is certainly a great spectacle, but the people in the city are accustomed to it.

This is because this palace has stood here for hundreds of years, standing firm despite wind and rain.

Hundreds of years are enough to smooth out all surprises.

But something very special happened today.

After this loud bang, the palace suddenly collapsed.

It was as if an invisible divine general wielded a sword and cut it in half with one blow. The upper half of the entire palace collapsed with a loud bang and fell away with such force that most of the majestic and luxurious palace was destroyed.

Some sharp-eyed people noticed that before the palace collapsed completely, two long rainbows appeared in the smoke and dust.

The rainbow lights flew away into the distance one after another. After a while, a violent roar resounded through the sky, completely shattering the thick white clouds.

They were Yu Qinglin, who was fleeing for his life, and Xu Xing, who was chasing him.

This was Xu Xing's first time to fight with a pure swordsman in this world. The experience could be said to be unique.

Without the constraints of the physical body, the soul is combined with the sword energy and sword embryo that he has refined throughout his life. Under the clear and unobstructed sword heart, he can come and go as he pleases, unpredictable, as powerful as a rainbow across the sky, more powerful than thunder and lightning.

Although Xu Xing was able to refine the true energy in his body to a pure level without any impurities through the two energies of yin and yang, after his spirit left his body, he was ultimately not as unique as the other party's orthodox sword technique that combined the essence, energy and spirit into one.

Therefore, during the first thirty miles of the pursuit, Yu Qinglin was even able to use his sword escape technique to continuously widen the distance between the two.

Xu Xing was not in a hurry to change his tactics. He just followed behind from a distance, wanting to see how skilled this pure swordsman, who obviously came from a good family, was with swordsmanship.

Although Li Xiuru was also a sword practitioner, his realm was low after all, and even the sword embryo could not be completely condensed, which was not enough for Xu Xing to get a glimpse of the secrets of sword practice.

Now this Yu Qinglin is just right.

Yu Qinglin had just seen Xu Xing's sword being so sharp, and also saw Li Xiuru holding the "Jiutu Hidden Sword Talisman", so he subconsciously thought that he was someone from the sect, so he ran away without looking back.

When he sensed the Xuanwu Dharma Image and the Master of Demon-Subduing that were transformed from Xu Xing's soul, he realized that the other party was not a pure swordsman as he had thought.

However, after flying thirty miles, the distance between them began to gradually shorten.

Because Yu Qinglin was controlling the sword with his soul, the speed of his sword flight was extremely fast, but the energy consumption was also enormous. Without the replenishment of his physical essence, it was even more difficult for him to stop and collect the energy of heaven and earth.

Yu Qinglin couldn't help but secretly groan in his heart.

——Damn, where on earth did this freak come from? His sword skills are superb, but how come his magic power is so strong too? !

Although a pure sword cultivator is slightly inferior in strength to a strong man of the same realm, the gap is not that big. This can only mean that the opponent's mana reserves are indeed extraordinary.

Besides this, he was worried about another thing.

All the Taoist disciples of Qingcheng Sword Sect recognize Li Xiuru, because as the direct descendant of Li family, this child is a natural talent in swordsmanship. As long as he practices step by step, the realm of true person will be within his reach, and the realm of great true person is not a luxury.

But Li Xiuru just didn't like the Qingcheng sword technique that was extremely sharp and could slay demons and exterminate evil. He only loved the way of Qihuang and was distracted by learning some medical acupuncture techniques. He even delayed his sword practice for this. He was even more eccentric than his master.

When Yu Qinglin thought of his master Li Xiuru, he was no longer just worried, but even his muscles and bones began to tremble.

He never thought that he would meet Li Xiuru in such a remote place as Annan, and that his true identity would be exposed.

If Annan's affairs are not handled well, how can I explain this to my master?
When Yu Qinglin thought of this, a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

It’s hard to say, after escaping this disaster, I can only join forces with these evil practitioners and make a big move.

Guan County outside Qingcheng Mountain is a place with undulating mountains and deep and dense forests. It has been a place where green forest bandits are rampant since ancient times.

There is an old saying in Jiannan Road, "If things get bad, then go to Guan County", which means that if there is really no way to go up to heaven or down to earth, the worst that can happen is that you will become a bandit in the woods of Guan County, which shows how tough the people here are.

Yu Qinglin was once one of the bandits, but because of his outstanding talent in swordsmanship, he was chosen by his master and accepted into the Qingcheng Mountain.

However, although he has been an immortal for many years, eating only clouds and drinking dew and not eating grains, he still has a domineering and bandit spirit in his bones.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to make friends with so many people from the evil sects, and be entrusted with important tasks by his master, giving him full responsibility for the affairs of King Jingyang.

Although things are not going well now and he has encountered an unexpected strong enemy, Yu Qinglin has not given up and is still thinking about strategies to save the situation.

But no matter what, let’s get rid of this guy who follows me like a shadow first!

With this thought in mind, Yu Qinglin no longer fled, but raised his sword and turned around to slash towards Xu Xing.

Although he knew that Xu Xing had extraordinary skills, Yu Qinglin was not alone here.

At the same time, the long-hidden golden body of the King of Jingyang also appeared from the water palace at the bottom of the river. Holding the seal of the water god who controlled the water transport of Annan, he drew the essence of the water veins and sealed it towards Xu Xing.

Although they are all mountain and water gods, King Jingyang is very different from Lord Dongting and Lord Qiantang Dragon.

He did not receive the heavenly talisman when he was alive, but as the ancestor of the Annan Yue people, he enjoyed sacrifices from his tribe after his death, which preserved his soul and enabled him to embark on the path of cultivation.

Therefore, King Jingyang does not have a physical body in the usual sense. Only this golden body formed by the power of incense and vows is his true foundation.

The middle-aged man who was able to use the magic fire just now was just an incarnation of King Jingyang condensed by his magic power and relying on the spiritual materials of heaven and earth.

Now that his incarnation had been killed by Xu Xing's sword, the golden body of the original body, who had been practicing the Youyou Yematian Dharma in seclusion, had to interrupt the process of practicing the Dharma, break out of the water palace, and fight against this uninvited guest.

As soon as King Jingyang's true form appeared, Xu Xing could feel an extremely heavy pressure coming from the seal of the water god in his hand.

This feeling is somewhat similar to Ao Zhengrong's "Seal of the Sea", but its power is several times greater.

After all, this river is the divine domain of King Jingyang. It can be said that every flower, tree, grass and leaf on both sides of the river have been nourished by the divine power of King Jingyang.

Now that he holds the Seal of the Water God and uses the essence of water veins as a basis, he communicates with and draws the vital energy of heaven and earth. Naturally, his efficiency is beyond the reach of Ao Zhengrong.

After all, although Ao Zhengrong is the eighth prince of the Dragon Palace, he is not an orthodox talisman practitioner, and he has never practiced the "Zhenhai Seal" with his life, so the power he can exert is only one-tenth or one-twelfth of it.

In fact, in Xu Xing's opinion, King Jingyang's actions were more like imperial decrees than communication and guidance.

This is definitely not an ability he possesses. The secret must be in that seal.

The vital energy of heaven and earth was like a group of self-aware soldiers who were determined to swear allegiance to King Jingyang until death. It swarmed around the water essence in the river and turned into a surging wave, ready to crush Xu Xing into powder.

Even a master at the Great Immortal Realm would find it difficult to withstand such an attack in a hurry. He must first avoid the attack and then prepare for a counterattack.

Even the last palm strike by the Black Mountain Old Demon, which was made by sacrificing his own ghost blood, was still inferior to the seal of King Jingyang.

While his mind was restrained, Yu Qinglin's sword light arrived in an instant. Before the sword energy arrived, the chilling coldness had already penetrated the sword power and sword momentum, locking onto Xu Xing's entire body, leaving him no room for maneuver.

If an ordinary cultivator, or even a Taoist priest who had condensed his own true talisman, were here, let alone actually taking the sword, just the sword intent would be enough to cause his true talisman to become unstable and damage his foundation of Taoism.

King Jingyang's incarnation was beheaded, and a valuable spiritual material was lost in vain. Yu Qinglin also lost his natural body, suffering heavy losses, and there is even the possibility that his life path will be cut off.

Therefore, they were all extremely angry and showed no mercy in their attack, determined to kill Xu Xing as soon as possible.

The emperor that Xu Xing transformed into just let out a long roar towards the sky, his black hair dancing wildly like a flag, the ink-washing Kunfeng in his hand twirling, and the Xuanwu magic sword under his feet immediately disintegrated, turning back into the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram of black and white energies intertwined.

Immediately afterwards, about 20% of the heaven and earth's vitality that should have been mobilized by the Seal of the Water God was first transformed by the Tai Chi diagram, and then restored to the purest yin and yang energies, and then was taken into the man's palm.

Although it was only 20%, for King Jingyang, this was an unprecedented phenomenon. He felt it was absurd, incredible, and even unbelievable.

A cultivator at the level of a True Person could actually fight against a legitimate Water God like me who holds the Great Seal of the Water God and has received the Divine Scripture? !
In fact, although Xu Xing's skill of swallowing qi, which originated from the "Zhenwu Yuanqi Fist", has been perfected and is only slightly inferior to the founder Zhang Sanfeng, in the territory of Jingyang King, the god of water, it is difficult to achieve full success even if he exhausts his divine power.

The reason why such a result was achieved was entirely because Xu Xing realized that King Jingyang's current foundation was obviously incompatible with the divine talisman carried by the Seal of the Water God.

For Xu Xing, who is proficient in the changes of yin and yang and good at transforming various kinds of vital energy, this slight disharmony has provided him with an excellent point of force, which is enough to pry open the essence of the water veins.

It was the unexpected changes that caused a huge deviation in the two people's originally seamless and impeccable cooperation.

Xu Xing also took this opportunity to control the sword with his soul again, using the Zhenwu Seven Sword Intentions and 20% of the water vein essence to slash at Yu Qinglin with one sword.

As the sword intent was just taking shape, the river water beneath Xu Xing, which had been surging violently and seemed to be boiling, immediately became as calm as a mirror, reflecting only a hint of sword light that looked like the cold moonlight.

Just as Yu Qinglin realized that he had made a miscalculation, he felt a pain in the deepest part of his soul as if it was being torn into pieces.

With a flash of sword light, Xu Xing had escaped from the attack range of King Jingyang's seal, and took the opportunity to completely cut off the sword embryo that Yu Qinglin had risked his life to cultivate.

When Xu Xing was escaping, he also used his true Qi to roll up Yu Qinglin's soul and stuffed him into the big locust tree, keeping him alive for the time being, waiting to interrogate him after the war.

The seal of King Jingyang missed the target. With a loud bang, the uneven ground along the coast, which was covered with dense forests and strange rocks, was flattened immediately. The area within a radius of twelve or thirteen miles was completely collapsed.

In addition, with this twelve or thirteen miles as the center, the ground is still constantly cracking and sinking. The affected area is so large that it is simply incalculable. The river water is surging and pouring into it, as if a huge lake has been created by one blow.

Fortunately, the three of them have now arrived at the middle section of the river, far away from the cities and settlements, and it is deserted and uninhabited. Otherwise, if King Jingyang's seal was pressed down, there would surely be a great loss of lives and blood.

However, King Jingyang did not care about the damage caused by his attack. He just stared at Xu Xing, concentrating his mind to the extreme.

Although he didn't know this man's origins, King Jingyang had just noticed Ao Zhengrong, the real dragon, and naturally understood that Xu Xing was the helper sent by the Sea Realm Dragon Palace.

In that case, what else is there to say?
When King Jingyang first started practicing the Youyou Yama Heaven method, it was only to save his life, but since he had embarked on this path, he was also prepared to be irreconcilable with Haijing.

Even though the attack missed, King Jingyang had no intention of letting Xu Xing go. He just roared angrily:
"You good thief, try my magic again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a towering giant who was dozens of feet tall, stepping on the surging river. He stretched his hands into the water and then lifted it up suddenly!

The river water exploded with a loud bang, and a three-legged jade tripod unexpectedly flew out of it. In the tripod was swirling a dark, thick, and extremely viscous liquid, which was extremely similar to the "Nine Netherworld Winds", and both carried a kind of eerie ghostly aura that was not of this world.

This is the magic weapon that King Jingyang has been refining for hundreds of years. It was made by collecting the elite thousand-year-old water jade from the depths of the South China Sea, combining it with thirty-six kinds of water-attributed treasures, and smelting the flesh, bones, essence and souls of hundreds of exotic beasts from the South China Sea.

After the catastrophe came, King Jingyang chose to practice the Youyou Yamatian method in order to protect his life and repair his golden body as soon as possible. Then, all the "heavy water" accumulated in the Water God Cauldron, which was enough to stimulate the Guishui Divine Thunder, turned into "Yinquan".

This "Yin Spring" is like the "Nine Netherworld Wind". It is not a thing of the human world, but comes from the infinitely distant Nine Netherworld.

However, the "Yinquan" is not like the "Nine Netherworld Wind". It can only be collected through the "Yinshi Youquan". It can also be refined from the real water essence through the method of "Yin Yunningpo".

The golden body of King Jingyang's deity had previously been used to offer sacrifices to the "Yin Quan" in an effort to combine the Yin Quan and the "Xuanyin Black Evil Demon Fire" into one, achieving the state of both water and fire.

As soon as the "Yinquan" appeared, it dyed the river under King Jingyang pitch black. It no longer looked like a river, but rather like a dark cave leading to the Nine Netherworld and the endless abyss.

Obviously, King Jingyang also realized what means Xu Xing had used just now to snatch 20% of his vitality from him.

So this time, he simply gave up the blessing of the Water God's Seal and fought the enemy purely with his own magic foundation.

The "Yinquan Water Cauldron" appeared in the world, the sky was covered with dark clouds, thunder rumbled, and the area within a radius of dozens of miles was filled with cumulonimbus clouds and water vapor, condensed like an iron curtain and a high city. The river water rose sharply and submerged both banks.

Amid the surging waves, a dense group of figures appeared. Although they were all ghosts, they were arranged in a strict formation, and the ghost aura was extremely strong, even blazing.

Xu Xing even felt an aura similar to the "Cang Hai Zhen Shui Array" in Dragon Palace.

Right in front of these ghosts, leading them were two white-skeletal gods and demons.

One of them was a python in life. Even though only its skeleton was left, it was still over ten feet long. It was surrounded by pitch-black magic fire, and its bones even had a silvery luster.

Although the other head looked like a python, its skull had two winding horns protruding from it, and it had four sharp claws under its belly. Its bones were surging with Yinquan water essence, and were pitch black with a hint of golden light.

King Jingyang holds a bone python in his left hand and a bone dragon in his right hand. There are thick dark clouds above his head and a surging river under his feet. He commands a group of demons and monsters, just like a snake-controlling god in ancient legends. Although his aura is not as powerful as before, it is even more ferocious and powerful.

This python and the dragon were both aquatic creatures under the command of the Dongting Dragon King when they were alive. They came to investigate the matter of the Dragon Girl, but King Jingyang managed to kill them and refine their essence and souls.

King Jingyang used the method of summoning demons and sacrificed a thousand people to subdue the two demons. He then entered the two skeletons and, with the help of elite gold and silver, spent ten years of hard work before he finally refined these two guardian gods and demons.

As for that group of ghost soldiers and navy, their methods were similar to those of the Black Mountain Old Demon. They were all raised evil spirits and ghosts, but each of them had the blood, essence and soul of nine oxen and two tigers integrated into it, and therefore were more powerful.

This is all the wealth in King Jingyang's hands. Feeling the powerful military force behind him, this water god, who had been suppressed by Xu Xing since he appeared, finally felt the long-lost peace of mind.

Even without the support of the water vein essence, King Jingyang at this moment was absolutely confident that he could defeat all real cultivators.

Even if a great immortal were to descend, without a suitable magic weapon, he might not be able to do anything to him.

But throughout the world, there are many top warriors who can achieve the status of Great Immortal. They are all in high positions and in charge of a region. Why would they come to this barren land of Annan and make things difficult for this tough guy?
As soon as the two guardian gods and demons, the golden-essence white-bone dragon demon and the silver-essence white-bone snake demon, appeared, they sensed an extremely disgusting aura from Xu Xing.

There was no need for King Jingyang to give any orders. The two gods and demons stretched out their bodies, broke through the air, and opened their huge mouths as big as ordinary houses, trying to swallow Xu Xing's soul.

At the same time, more than a thousand ghost soldiers also rode the rolling waves and rushed towards Xu Xing. The incomplete True Water Array was in operation, naturally generating infinite power, suppressing the operation of his divine thoughts.

The next moment, a brilliant golden sun rose slowly behind Xu Xing, and the golden light covered the sky and the earth, illuminating the evil spirits. The two gods and demons were each shocked and retreated, and more than a thousand ghost soldiers were also shaken, releasing a cloud of yin essence.

When the light faded, Xu Xing's spirit had returned to his body. He held up the ink-washing Kunfeng with his left hand and slowly retracted his fist with his right hand. King Jingyang saw clearly that at that moment, it was Xu Xing's body, which was not controlled by his spirit, that punched a hole in the True Water Formation, rushed in, and forced back the two great gods and demons with the remaining fist strength.

——But how is this possible?

Once the ritual of refining gods and demons is completed, their power can be said to be unparalleled. Ordinary magic weapons can be broken by bare hands, and even the Dharma body of a real cultivator cannot withstand a few tears.

But this person's body is so strong that it can fight against the gods and demons with bones? !
In fact, in the inheritance of the Five Directions Demon Sect, there is also a method of using the physical body as a magic tool for sacrifice.

However, before this body threw a punch, King Jingyang clearly felt a masculine and domineering, even overbearing will, as well as a vast and rich essence.

With such a will and such essence, he was just like an ancient cultivator who diligently practiced the ancient great way of gods and demons. Could it be that this person melted his second soul into his body? !
Before King Jingyang could come up with an answer, Ao Zhengrong and Li Xiuru arrived one after another after Xu Xing's body.

When the Eighth Prince saw the two white-skeletal gods and demons, his mind was shaken violently. He recognized that they were the envoys from the sea who had come to Annan earlier in search of the Dragon Girl.

But now, these two messengers have been made to look like neither a monster nor a demon!
Ao Zhengrong had never felt such anger in his life. His heart was filled with excitement and he roared to the sky. His long hair soared into the sky and his body turned into a silver-scaled white dragon. He rushed towards the army of King Jingyang with all his might.

The dragon demon and the snake demon naturally took the lead and stood in front of King Jingyang. A dragon, a dragon and a snake fought each other, and in a few breaths they reached the deepest part of the dark clouds. Amid the thunder and lightning, three long winding bodies could be vaguely seen, rising and falling.

Li Xiuru was also shocked. He had not expected that King Jingyang's attainments in magic and the strength of his army had reached such a level. He raised the sword talisman, and released a circle of fierce sword energy to kill the evil spirits.

However, even with the arrival of these two powerful reinforcements, 90% of King Jingyang's attention was still on Xu Xing.

However, his mood only fluctuated slightly, and Xu Xing's majestic aura, like the scorching sun, disappeared out of thin air in his perception, as if it had escaped into the boundless void, or into the small world.

Although King Jingyang had profound magical powers, he was a monk after all, so it was not easy for him to practice pure magic skills. He knew nothing about the most profound "Nine Netherworlds and Ten Hells Escape Technique" in the Youyou Yamatian inheritance.

Therefore, he could not feel any signs of the activation of the Void Divine Power, and naturally could not be prepared.

In fact, King Jingyang never thought that this was actually the magical power of the void. He just thought it was some kind of illusion to obscure perception and confuse thoughts.

The next moment, a domineering fist with brutal murderous intent blasted out from the ripples of the void, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, or like an evil star appearing in the world, causing endless wars and slamming heavily into the golden vest of King Jingyang.

This attack came extremely unexpectedly and there was no way to defend against it, but King Jingyang had been practicing here for hundreds of years, and his every breath was connected to the heaven and earth. Even without using the power of the water god, his perception was extremely strong.

At this moment, he finally confirmed that this was not any illusion, but the real magical power of the void!
The moment he was hit, a circle of crystal clear water curtain wall with a texture like glass agate appeared behind King Jingyang, just like a bright mirror, but only darkness was reflected in the mirror.

This is an extremely rare protective spell among the dragon clan's magical powers, called "Sky Dragon Water Mirror Cloud". It draws the essence of Gui water and condenses it into a round mirror, which is said to be immune to external evil and able to resist all kinds of magic.

The fist collided head-on with the water mirror. The entire middle section of the river, and even the river water that overflowed to both banks, stopped for a moment at this moment.

With a puff, a large cloud of water mist and steam rushed straight into the sky, making the water vapor accumulated in the dark clouds in the sky even thicker, turning into heavy rain, washing both banks.

"Sky Dragon Water Mirror Cloud" is certainly an excellent defensive magical power, but Xu Xing's "Shooting Sky Wolf" has been brewing for a long time.

Moreover, ever since Xu Xing had seen the "Chiyou Flag" and the "Jidu Hidden Sword Talisman" and felt the evil spirit contained in them, the murderous intent of this punch has increased even more than before. How could King Jingyang resist it when he cast a spell in a hurry?
Another crisp cracking sound was heard, and all the clothes and accessories worn on the golden body of King Jingyang crumbled into powder.

Immediately afterwards, a circle of fine cracks appeared on his golden body. The lines were centered on the fist mark left by Xu Xing, and spread outward like ripples on water, instantly affecting half of the golden body.

Below the golden body, in the wide river with surging water, a series of water columns suddenly exploded, flowing upstream with the force of splitting the sky and clearing the clouds, stretching for ten miles.

However, although this punch achieved such a result, Xu Xing was not satisfied, because he could feel that King Jingyang was not dead yet!

Although King Jingyang has been separated from his own divine realm due to his practice of magic, this is his home ground after all, and it is enough to share the remaining power of this punch.

This is a bit too hard to kill, isn't it?!
Xu Xing found it a little unbelievable, but he did not slow down at all - such a dying struggle would not change the outcome at all!

After using the "Shooting Sky Wolf" move to completely destroy the golden body of King Jingyang, he changed to the "Star-Picking Moon Hand" and "Heavenly Feather King Claw", and with both hands, he used all his strength to tear it apart.

With a swish sound, a towering golden body of a mountain and water god that was dozens of feet tall was forcibly pried apart by his hands as small as mustard seeds and torn completely into two halves.

After the golden body shattered, a soul covered with thick black smoke rushed out from it and fled towards the depths of the water.

This river goes straight to the South China Sea, with turbulent underwater undercurrents and winding waterways, which makes it interconnected in all directions. As long as you escape into it, there may be a glimmer of hope!
In fact, the reason why King Jingyang chose to practice the Youyou Yamatian Dharma during the catastrophe was simply to survive.

Although these mountain and water gods control a divine domain and enjoy unlimited glory, compared with orthodox monks, they are also shackled and bound by many restrictions, and even their lives are restricted by the wishes of mortals.

This is why we must be extremely cautious when enthroning gods and granting them divine certificates.

If one's character is not good enough and he stays in the position of god for a long time, I am afraid that not only will he not be able to help sort out the spiritual energy of mountains and rivers and benefit the people, but he will bring harm to the people and cause disasters.

But on the other hand, if one works sincerely and fulfills his duties, even if he becomes a mountain and river spirit, there will be opportunities for promotion. After all, the Prime Minister, the Great Spiritual Officer of Mountains and Rivers, is not a foolish person.

However, many times, even if we do the same thing, our original intentions are different and we are ultimately different.

It was because King Jingyang was very good at combing the essence of mountains and rivers and regulating the water veins that he was favored by the old Dragon King and married to the Dragon Girl.

But he did this not really for the benefit of the people of Annan, but only for his own longevity.

In fact, in the eyes of King Jingyang, the people of Annan are all his descendants and they should offer incense and pray to him. Allowing some floods to occur appropriately would be more conducive to his spiritual practice.

It was just that the management of Kanglong Palace was really strict, and King Jingyang was a man who was determined to practice cultivation, so he suppressed his unhappiness and continued to do his job conscientiously.

But when the Dragon Girl arrived, everything changed.

After receiving the true teachings of the Dragon Palace's water magic from the Dragon Girl, King Jingyang devoted more time to studying Taoism and paid less attention to the people under his rule. He also dealt with the annual evaluation of Kanglong Palace in a perfunctory manner.

However, if that were the case, nothing serious would happen. After all, Kanglong Palace was still there, and there was a dragon girl beside him. King Jingyang would not dare to go beyond the line no matter what.

However, a demonic calamity struck from the sky, almost completely destroying the golden body he had cultivated for hundreds of years.

At the last moment of his life, the anger that King Jingyang had suppressed for many years finally burst out:

——Why should the magical powers that I have worked hard for hundreds of years to cultivate be used by a group of mortals?
In the past, King Jingyang had thought about whether he could let go of his unhappiness and learn from the gods in Kanglong Palace to become a god who was conscientious and fully committed to his duties.

But he could never convince himself, and could only use the reasons of the great way and longevity to forcibly suppress the depression in his heart.

But now, what has he asked for?
What kind of eternal life is this? It is nothing but a mirage and an illusion!
In the deepest despair, all the immortals, Buddhas and saints were silent, only the devil responded to King Jingyang's roar, gave him the supreme devil secret method, and continued the path to immortality for him.

It was not until this time that King Jingyang deeply realized how important the four words "Tao Longevity" were to him.

The reason why there are heroes among mortals who are willing to sacrifice their own lives and are passionate and heroic is simply because their lives will eventually end, but it is only a few short decades!

But I'm different!
I am the water god who has the hope of immortality!
It was precisely because he understood his own heart that King Jingyang was able to accept the Demon Sect's inheritance so easily, turn to practicing the Youyou Yemotian Dharma, and make rapid progress in his cultivation.

For him, whether it is the way of the devil or the way of the gods, as long as it can lead to immortality, what difference does it make?
Now, facing Xu Xing, who was like an evil spirit descending from the earth, the desire to survive that had been hidden in King Jingyang's heart for a long time emerged again, and it became more and more surging and uncontrollable.

Youyou Yama Heaven is a method of wandering in the underworld and communicating between yin and yang. By practicing this method, King Jingyang is naturally no stranger to death.

But the more he came into contact with it and the more familiar he became with it, the more he feared death, and even hated death.

——When you die, there is nothing.

So, I want to escape, I don’t want to die!
A sound of Canglang.

All the intense emotional fluctuations, all the shouts and all the resistance disappeared. King Jingyang's soul was cut off by Xu Xing's sword, and he had nothing left.

——He is dead.

"Immortality?"

Xu Xing clasped his hands together and forcibly pieced the soul together, then stuffed it back into the big locust tree, together with Yu Qinglin and the evil spirit girl, with a strange look on his face and a cold sneer.

At the last moment of his life, King Jingyang no longer had the slightest energy left to concentrate his mind, so Xu Xing heard his "last words" very clearly, and felt that they were extremely absurd, and were filled with endless murderous intent.

Since everything you do is for the sake of immortality, then I, Xu, will cut off your path and make you unable to be reborn forever!

Although Xu Xing was angry, he did not forget to clean up the battlefield and seize the spoils.

The previous battle with the Black Mountain Old Demon had made him realize that as long as the cultivators in this world could cultivate to the realm of true person, they would definitely have considerable wealth.

This is the case for the Black Mountain Old Demon, a lone man. King Jingyang, who has ruled Annan for hundreds of years and controls a certain area of ​​water, will naturally become richer.

Thinking of this, Xu Xing swept his sleeves and rolled the Water God Seal that King Jingyang had just held in his hand and the scattered golden body fragments into the Zhenwu Haotian Mirror.

After doing these things, he separated his soul from his body again. His body soared into the sky and flew straight into the dark clouds. He grabbed the long bony tail of the dragon monster with one hand and, with all his might, pulled it down and threw it to the shore.

With the help of Xu Xing's physical body, Ao Zhengrong suddenly lost an opponent and became even more unstoppable. He moved his claws and once again used the "Flood Disaster" from the "Six Disasters Forbidden Technique".

Now that King Jingyang is dead, the water energy here is at the disposal of this real dragon. With just one strike, he, with his powerful flood water that could engulf both banks and cause untold destruction, broke the snake demon's long skeletal body into pieces.

However, although Ao Zhengrong attracted a lot of water vein essence, it was nothing compared to Xu Xing.

The spirit controlled the Ximo Kunfeng, splitting the surging river water. The sword energy reached the end of the sky, tearing apart the thick dark clouds. It was like a crystal river coming from the depths of the universe and the stars, vast and boundless, covering the sky and the earth.

Without King Jingyang managing the vitality of this place, Xu Xing was naturally like a fish in water. Ximo Kunfeng was originally a magic sword of the Xuanyin water attribute, and with the blessing of the Seal of the God of Water, its power was even more powerful.

Even Ao Zhengrong, a pure-blooded dragon, cannot compare to him.

Even though those ghosts and spirits had been refined by King Jingyang using the spirits of ferocious beasts, how could they withstand such an attack?

With just one sword, all the ghosts are destroyed and the sky becomes clear!

At the bottom of this big river, in a winding undercurrent waterway, there is an extremely deep cave.

In the cave, a heroic woman wearing silver-scale armor, a jade crown on her head, and holding a sword hilt at her waist, was looking up at the upper level of the cave, feeling the turmoil that was constantly transmitted to this place, with a worried look on her face.

The woman had an extremely beautiful appearance. Besides being heroic, she also had an air of grace and nobility. On her forehead was a pair of dragon horns that curved toward the sky and were as crystal clear as jade. She looked exactly like Ao Qingqi, the fourth princess who had married into the Annan territory many years ago.

Ao Qingqi hid here to avoid being discovered by King Jingyang. He didn't even dare to look up, let alone use his divine sense. He could only rely on his dragon body's natural keen sense of the water veins to judge what was happening on the river.

In fact, although her name is "Qingqi", her temperament is as hot-tempered and straightforward as Ao Zhengrong and even the Qiantang Dragon King.

If he had not taken the man behind him into consideration, even though he knew he could not defeat him, Ao Qingqi would have rushed to Annan Royal City with his sword. Even if he had to sacrifice his life, he would have dragged this villain to hell with him.

Thinking of this, Ao Qingqi turned around and looked at the tall man in a green cloth robe behind him. His eyes were complicated and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

The man was holding a compass, his temples were gray, but his face was handsome, his temperament was carefree and unrestrained, and he had a kind of unruly and uninhibited air.

Noticing Ao Qingqi's gaze, the man just raised a finger, shook his head at her, and smiled slightly, with a calmness in his smile.

Although Ao Qingqi knew that this man was much weaker than herself and was someone who needed her protection, she still couldn't help but feel at ease when she saw this look.

This person is Zuo Qingtian’s best friend, Liu Yi.

When Liu Yi came to Annan, he just wanted to take the road straight into the Shiwanda Mountains. With his Feng Shui skills, he could collect some rare medicinal herbs and give them to his good friend Xu Xian to make medicine.

However, when he arrived here, he realized something was wrong. How could a dragon vein appear out of nowhere?
Although the aura of this dragon vein is extremely thin, Liu Yi is, after all, a sorcerer who specializes in Feng Shui and is very good at finding dragon points and acupoints, so he would not make a mistake.

But he never imagined that it was not a dragon vein at all, but a real dragon that was imprisoned.

After learning about Ao Qingqi's experience, Liu Yi immediately realized that the entire Annan area might have fallen into the hands of the devil.

Although he was just a sorcerer, he would never sit idly by and watch the evil cult grow stronger, so he agreed to Ao Qingqi's request, contacted Zuo Qingtian and others, and passed the message to the sea realm. He stayed there to help Ao Qingqi escape.

In fact, Liu Yi was not as confident and calm as Ao Qingqi felt, but he also knew that at this moment, he could not show any weakness.

Although Liu Yi is only a fraction of Ao Qingqi's age now, he started out as a casual cultivator and has struggled through the demonic tide to get to where he is today. He can be said to be a genius among geniuses.

Ao Qingqi grew up in the Dragon Palace, where she was protected by the Lord of Dongting and the Lord of Qiantang, and was loved by the aquatic creatures in the Dragon Palace. As soon as she left the palace, she married King Jingyang. Although she was inexperienced, she was still as holy as ever.

Otherwise, with her background and cultivation, she would never be suppressed so easily by King Jingyang and sealed at the foot of the mountain.

So in Liu Yi's eyes, although the Fourth Princess had profound cultivation and was dozens of times older than him, at a time like this, she needed his care.

The reason why the two of them hid under the water was because Princess Ao Qingqi was carrying a rare treasure from the Dragon Palace that was enough to hide her body and conceal her aura in the water.

However, although King Jingyang did not know that Ao Qingqi had such a treasure, he also understood that the dragon clan's water magic was unfathomable, so he directly suppressed it at the foot of the mountain, trapped it with the energy of the earth veins, and assisted by the magic fire and Yinquan, so that the fourth princess could not escape.

After a while, the riverbed finally calmed down, but Liu Yi and Ao Qingqi's hearts gradually became tense.

Although they didn't know who the master was, they both knew very well that in the Annan territory, King Jingyang held the Seal of the Water God, and even ordinary great immortals could not do anything to him.

Even if a great immortal holding a precious treasure and extraordinary magical powers came here in person, it would still take some effort to break the divine domain of King Jingyang and kill him.

But now, the battle ended so quickly...

Ao Qingqi was worried. Although Liu Yi looked calm, he was a little anxious.

Suddenly, there was a violent shock above their heads, the water surged, and two giant hands with five colors flowing pushed away the heavy waves, exposing them directly to the sunlight.

But I heard someone sigh:

"Hey, she's really well hidden. Xiao Ao, come and take a look. Is this your sister?" (End of this chapter)
