Starting with a daily divination to build an immortal clan

Chapter 305 The End
After soaring through the void once, the black dragon coiled up directly above Cloudwater City.

On the black dragon, three figures stepped through the void and walked to the front of the many cultivators from outside the realm. Xu Xiu calmly cupped his hands slightly and said, "Thank you all for coming from afar to witness my actions in creating a great era."

"What you fellow Daoists obtained in Yangnao Land can be considered my gift of gratitude."

"I have accepted your gifts, and you should all leave now. I have some personal matters to attend to and do not wish to involve you fellow Daoists."

His voice was calm, but his tone carried an undeniable firmness.

He showed no fear in the face of the combined attack of more than twenty Nascent Soul True Monarchs present.

Upon hearing this, the many Nascent Soul True Monarchs present exchanged bewildered glances, and finally turned their gazes to Sikong Sword Immortal of the Azure Moon Dao Sect, as well as the leaders of the Great Secret Realm and Azure Sky Mountain.

Most of them didn't know Xu Xiu, but after hearing the story told by an old Nascent Soul True Monarch who had lived long enough, they realized that this seemingly kind old man had once been a ruthless figure who dominated the entire Cangmin Realm.

If the three from Qingyue Dao Sect, Dafeng Secret Realm, and Cangkong Mountain are unwilling to continue their efforts in the face of such figures, they will naturally have no choice but to give up.

Under the gaze of the crowd, the leaders of the three factions fell silent.

After a while——

"Are you truly the Great Lord of Great Harmony?"

Tian Qi, the person in charge of Cangkong Mountain, narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke first.

Xu Xiu turned to look at him and smiled slightly, saying, "What does it matter whether the past is true or not?"

"If you fear True Lord Daying, then I will; if you think True Lord Daying is nothing special, then I will use my current identity to learn a thing or two from you."

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Tian Qi's eyes, and he immediately sneered, "Playing hard to get!"

"I'm too lazy to argue with you about these things. I only have two requests. If you agree, whatever you do will be none of my business, Cang Kong Mountain."

Upon hearing this, Feng Jingyang, who was standing next to Xu Xiu, immediately changed his expression and was about to reprimand him.

Xu Xiu raised his hand slightly to stop him, and still looked at Tian Qi with a smile, saying, "Fellow Daoist, why don't you tell me?"

Tian Qi said coldly, "My son Tian Ji was murdered by villains in Yangnao Land. It must have been done by cultivators from Yangnao Land. I have sent people to trace the murderer to the place where Ji was killed. If any clues are found later, no matter who the murderer is, you cannot interfere with my revenge for Ji!"

Having previously noticed that his son Tian Ji's life tablet was broken, he immediately dispatched another Nascent Soul True Monarch from Cang Kong Mountain to the Seven Sages Mountain Secret Realm to use tracing techniques to search for clues. Now, they should have found some leads by now.

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiu frowned slightly.

When the collapse of the Dao began, all the cultivators in the Yangnao Land who had the ability and the backing had already left.

Now the entire Yangnao Land has almost completely collapsed. Apart from those cultivators from outside the realm, there are probably only a few members of the Shen family left.

Tian Qi insisted that the murderer of his son was a cultivator from Yangnao Land, which was tantamount to saying that the Shen family killed his son.

"If you wish to avenge the death of your son, I will certainly not stop you."

"But the Shen family in the city has a great karmic connection with me, so you should not try to take them away."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the many Nascent Soul True Monarchs around him all changed.

Having reached their level of cultivation, they naturally understand the meaning of cause and effect.

Cause and effect are like threads in the mortal world. Once you get entangled in them, you can only slowly resolve them. If you forcibly sever them, they will inevitably breed inner demons in your heart. Or cause and effect may turn into calamities, becoming the fuse that ignites countless tribulations, thus destroying a cultivator's cultivation and ending in death and the dissipation of their cultivation.

Xu Xiu has now made it clear that the Shen family members have a great karmic connection with him, which is a warning to everyone that he will protect the few people in the city below at all costs.

"Hehe... Since it is your karma, we will naturally not interfere." King Yueshan of the Dafeng Secret Realm pondered for a moment and then smiled, "As long as you ask them to hand over what they have, I will immediately lead the cultivators of my Dafeng Secret Realm away from Yangnao Land and will not interfere with your next steps."

As soon as King Yueshan finished speaking, Sikong Jinghong, the sword immortal of the Qingyue Dao Sect, calmly said, "The Qingyue Dao Sect is the same."

Xu Xiu stood with his hands behind his back in the void, quietly looking at the crowd before him, then sighed and smiled, "It seems that none of you intended to leave here..."

"Fine, fine, if that's how it is, then none of you should leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding light suddenly dimmed, and then a large number of mysterious and complex array patterns rapidly emerged from the void!
In the distance, Chu Xiangyu of the Ice God Palace saw the array runes spreading rapidly in the void above her head, and her thoughts stirred slightly!
The moment he waved his hand and moved the Ice God Ship away, his hand also grabbed Shen Chongzhen and Zhou Xuan beside him!

The instant its figure disappeared, an area spanning thousands of miles was completely enveloped by a massive dark golden light shield!
The moment the dark golden light shield was formed, an invisible pressure appeared out of nowhere from all directions, acting on everyone in the field!

Just as everyone was feeling apprehensive about this invisible pressure, an ancient stone boat, entirely gray and black, suddenly appeared in the void thousands of miles away!
After the stone boat was forced to reveal itself, more than a dozen terrifying figures flew out from it!

"People from the underworld!?"

When did these rats arrive?

"There are also members of the Calamity Fire Cult!"

"These cowardly fellows are hiding here, are they planning to reap the benefits without lifting a finger?"

Upon seeing the sudden appearance of the Yin Si and Jie Huo Sect cultivators, the expressions of the many Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the arena instantly turned solemn.

Among the seventy-two realms of Cangmin, the Underworld and the Calamity Fire Sect are infamous for their wickedness.

Ever since a strange person in the Cangmin Sea proposed that cultivators in the pseudo-divine realm could improve the power level of the Dao Source Secret Realm to perfect the Great Dao Laws within the secret realm, thereby allowing their realm to break through again, many controllers of the Dao Source Secret Realm have been trying this openly and secretly.

Among these, the method chosen by the Calamity Fire Sect in the ancient Central Continent was to devour the Dao Sources of other small worlds that had not yet formed Dao Source Secret Realms.

They cultivated their power by planting spies in small worlds that had not yet become Dao Source Realms, and then, through meticulous planning, they stole the Dao Source of a world without anyone knowing.

Rumors circulate that the Dao Source of four small worlds in the Seventy-Two Realms of Cangmin has been stolen by the Jiehuo Sect.

The method chosen by the underworld officials of Youdu is even more peculiar.

The Lord of the Underworld believes that when a cultivator breaks through to the Golden Core stage, the immortal golden essence bestowed by Heaven is the spiritual object that bestows upon them the most in accordance with the Great Dao.

If one can refine a large amount of immortal gold into the Dao Source Secret Realm, it will surely elevate the level of the Dao Source Secret Realm, thereby breaking through the limits and allowing one's own realm to break through the pseudo-divine transformation and reach a higher level.

The two forces, the Underworld and the Fire Calamity Sect, both sought the source of the Dao. Both were engaged in acts of plunder, yet there was no fundamental conflict of interest between them.

Therefore, over the years, many forces have often heard news of the two families colluding and joining forces to destroy other small worlds.

The two companies recently joined forces to target Yangnao Land from back then.

Unfortunately, the Great Lord of Great Harmony was a master strategist. Although his own plan ultimately failed, he successfully thwarted the conspiracy of several forces, including the Underworld, the Fire Calamity Sect, and the Heavenly Dragon Temple, to jointly annex the Yangnao Land.

It is said that all sides suffered extremely heavy losses in that battle.

Dozens of Nascent Soul True Monarchs died in battle!

These dozens of people almost all died completely, without even the chance of reincarnation.

As for Tianlong Temple, which was a secret realm of Dao origin, it was directly destroyed and disappeared without a trace.

"Great Lord Da Ying, we meet again."

After the ten Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Underworld and the Calamity Fire Sect stepped into the void and arrived, one of them, a young man dressed in a black robe with gold patterns and wearing a black jade crown, spoke with a smile.

Meeting his gaze, Xu Xiu smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Daoist Qingmian is quite lucky, having managed to possess such a superior body again."

"However, it is not as good as your previous Netherworld Body."

Upon hearing the mention of the "Netherworld Body," the blue-faced king from the underworld narrowed his eyes, a hint of killing intent flashing within them!
That physical body was a special physique that he had painstakingly found in a small world. Relying on that body, he successfully reached the pseudo-god-level realm in just over a hundred years, and his strength even surpassed that of his previous life.

However, that very body, which had the potential to greatly increase his strength, was destroyed by the Great Ying True Monarch himself back then.

"Fellow Daoist's words are as sharp as ever."

Beside the Green-Faced King, an old man wearing a crimson cloak from the Calamity Fire Sect chuckled and said, "Back then, you also used this very tongue to successfully persuade the Seven Sons of Yangnao to willingly risk their lives for you, didn't you?"

"I wonder what the Seven Sons of Yangnao would think if they knew that you had only been using them from beginning to end?"

As the old man spoke, he glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Feng Jingyang and Lu Benshui behind Xu Xiu.

"These two were also among the Seven Heroes of Yangnao back then, weren't they?"

The old man feigned surprise before speaking, then suddenly sighed and shook his head: "Back in the day, the Seven Heroes of Yangnao were quite well-known free-spirited heroes in the Cangmin Sea..."

"It's a pity that the name of the hero still lingers in our ears, but the swordsman of yesteryear is nowhere to be seen."

"Only two of the Seven Heroes of Yangnao remain..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Jingyang and Lu Benshui's expressions changed slightly.

"You old fool, stop trying to sow discord!"

"We followed you back then so that the entire Yangnao land would not be coveted and harmed by you scum. Now that your plan has succeeded, today we will settle the old scores with you!"

After shouting, Feng Jingyang immediately cupped his hands towards Xu Xiu and said, "My lord, let's begin!"

"Today, let these scum see the preparations we've made over the years."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiu, too lazy to engage in further verbal sparring with the others, immediately flicked his sleeve!
The next moment, a large amount of light flew out from his sleeves and disappeared into the surrounding void!

The void, which was already covered with all sorts of mysterious and complex patterns, instantly changed from crimson gold to dark purple after these streams of light merged into it!

At the same time, as the dark purple array patterns flickered, a dark purple mist suddenly appeared on the bodies of all the cultivators outside the realm within the array's coverage area!
When these dark purple mists appeared, all the cultivators around, whether they were Nascent Soul True Monarchs or Golden Core Purple Mansion Realm cultivators, could clearly feel their own spiritual power slowly weakening!

"This is... a forbidden array!?"

"How could it possibly be this kind of formation!?"

"True Lord Daying, this matter has nothing to do with us. Please open the formation immediately and let us leave!"

"Yes, yes, this is a feud between you and the Underworld and the Calamity Fire Sect. We did not interfere in the affairs of Yangnao Land back then!"

In the arena, the Qingyue Dao Sect, the Dafeng Secret Realm, and Cangkong Mountain, among other forces that had previously intended to coerce the Shen family into handing over the blood of Baxia, changed their expressions drastically upon feeling the power of the Forbidden Formation. They all clamored for Xu Xiu to open the Forbidden Formation and let them leave.

Seeing this, Xu Xiu shook his head and sighed, "Why are you all doing this?"

"I had already kindly advised you all to leave quickly."

"However, you were all greedy and insisted on staying to wade into this mess. Now that the formation is complete, you have changed your minds."

"How can there be so many good things in this world that all of you get your way?"

Having said that, Xu Xiu glanced at the thirty-odd Nascent Soul True Monarchs and numerous Golden Core and Purple Mansion Realm cultivators gathered in the arena and said indifferently, "With the cultivation of thirty-seven Nascent Soul True Monarchs from outside the realm and more than two hundred Golden Core and Purple Mansion Realm cultivators as a foundation, my Dao Source Secret Realm is better than other secret realms from the start."

“You Shen family lads are in luck.”

Turning around to look at Shen Wen'an and the others in the city behind him, Xu Xiu slowly wiped the smile off his face: "Black Dragon, you protect them."

"Ben Shui, Jing Yang, follow me and begin the harvest."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room changed their expressions.

At first, they didn't quite understand why Xu Xiu would choose to appear at this time when the source of Dao in this Yangnao Land hadn't been completely extracted.

Now that the forbidden array has appeared, they finally understand.

The old man used the remaining Dao Source power of Yangnao Land to set up a forbidden array specifically targeting cultivators from the outside world.

The forbidden array can block cultivators from using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the laws of magic.

Although the great formation set up by Xu Xiu could not completely restrict the Nascent Soul True Monarchs present, the longer they were in the formation, the more their strength would be suppressed.

With the decline of one side and the rise of the other, Xu Xiu and his two companions, along with the black dragon, will not be affected by the forbidden array as native cultivators of Yangnao Land. Meanwhile, they will be unable to use the power of Dao principles and techniques, and will only become lambs to the slaughter!

"Great Lord of Great Harmony!"

"If you don't let us leave, don't blame us for attacking the Shen family!"

King Yue of the Great Secret Realm clearly did not want to get involved in this matter anymore; he had already sensed an impending crisis.

"Oh?"

Xu Xiuzheng was about to step forward and kill the members of the Yin Si and Jie Huo Sect when he heard Yue Shan Wang's words. He paused slightly and a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Ben Shui, kill him first."

Behind him, Lu Benshui, dressed in a blue robe and with a face covered in fine scales, bowed slightly and said, "Yes, sir."

As soon as he finished speaking, his hand shot out and attacked Yue Shan Wang!
The moment Lu Benshui's palm reached out, the surrounding spiritual energy surged instantly, and a huge cyan dragon claw suddenly appeared in the void!

His physical body is that of a pure-blooded dragon, and his strength is terrifying!
The moment the cyan dragon claw appeared, it locked onto the entire space where King Yueshan was located!

Upon seeing this, King Yue Shan frowned slightly.

The opponent's claw was clearly intended to shatter him and the surrounding space!
"Don't underestimate me!"

As a cultivator on the Cangmin Heavenly Ranking, King Yueshan clearly possessed his own pride.

Even though their strength has been reduced by one-tenth by the forbidden array, they are unwilling to suffer such humiliation!

With his hands forming a hand seal, a powerful earth-attribute spiritual energy surged from his body, forming a gigantic Dharma image over a thousand feet tall behind him!

The moment the Dharma form was formed, it punched the blue dragon claw that was grabbing from the front!
Upon seeing this, Shiromoto Shui revealed a strange smile on his face, which was covered with fine scales!

next moment!
Fists and claws collided!

The expected violent explosion did not occur!
Lu Benshui's dragon claws were like grasping a piece of tofu, easily crushing Yue Shanwang's fist. It rampaged through the crowd, tearing the Dharma image's arms and body to shreds!

"This is... the innate divine ability of dragons, [Spell Breaker]!?"

Upon seeing this, Tian Qi, the master of Cangkong Mountain, instantly became solemn.

Most dragons share a prominent characteristic: they possess extremely strong physical bodies.

Therefore, many dragons do not like to cultivate complex spells and simply rely on instinct to fight their enemies.

The innate divine ability [Spell Breaking] on them is an existence that defies the heavens.

A cultivator of the immortal path faces a dragon that possesses the divine power of "breaking the law," which is more despairing than a physical cultivator of the same realm.

Just like King Yue Shan, even the most powerful Dharma form is as fragile as paper when facing the [Spell Breaking] divine power.

"Fellow Daoist Sikong, Fellow Daoist Tian!"

"And you lot, do you really intend to become nourishment for this secret realm?!"

Seeing that he was no match for the dragon, King Yueshan no longer cared about saving face. He channeled his spiritual power to break free from the blue dragon claw's lock while shouting to the people around him!

"Once that old man frees his hands, we will all perish here!"

Seeing that everyone was still hesitating, King Yueshan shouted again!
The people around them glanced at Xu Xiu and Feng Jingyang, who had already charged towards the Yin Si and the Jie Huo Sect members, and then at Lu Benshui, who was closing in step by step. A resolute look flashed in their eyes!
"Gentlemen, we can't wait any longer!"

"Let's do it together!"

"If we don't want to become nourishment for that old thing's Dao Source Secret Realm, we must escape as soon as possible!"

"Yes, kill those two dragons and break this sealing formation!"

The twenty-odd Nascent Soul True Monarchs quickly reached a consensus and all chose to make their move.

Upon seeing this, Lu Benshui's expression suddenly turned serious.

Although the strength of these Nascent Soul True Monarchs in front of us has been suppressed by the forbidden formation, they are still Nascent Soul True Monarchs after all.

He and Black Dragon must be careful.

Otherwise, if these people were to harm any members of the Shen family, it would cause Xu Xiu a lot of trouble.

"Fellow Daoist Sikong, Fellow Daoist Tian, ​​let us join forces to deal with this person in front of us, while the rest of you hold off the black dragon."

"If the rest of you are free, capture those members of the Shen family first, and force that old man to open the formation and release us!"

It must be said that King Yueshan possessed extremely strong organizational skills.

After some arrangements, the twenty-odd people immediately had their own goals.

They were all in the same boat now, and everyone put survival first, with no one daring to have any other thoughts.

On the other side, Shen Wen'an and his three companions, protected by the black dragon, felt their hearts sink as they saw more than twenty Nascent Soul True Monarchs charging forward!
Although Xu Xiu left two Nascent Soul True Monarch level dragon subordinates to protect them, there were quite a few Nascent Soul True Monarchs rushing up this time.

The two dragons might not be able to withstand it.

Roar!
Just as the four were filled with worry, Lu Benshui, who was simultaneously besieged by Sikong Jinghong, Yue Shanwang, and Tian Qi, became enraged.

He also knew that the Black Dragon could not possibly stop the remaining twenty-odd Nascent Soul True Monarchs!

A terrifying roar rang out, and Lu Benshui transformed into a blue dragon in an instant!
Judging from size alone, the Azure Dragon that Lu Benshui transformed into was larger than the Black Dragon that protected Shen Wen'an and the others, and its domineering aura was also stronger!
Lu Benshui, now in his true form, suddenly whipped his tail, stopping more than ten Nascent Soul True Monarchs who were rushing toward the Black Dragon!
The remaining eleven Nascent Soul True Monarchs can only be dealt with by the Black Dragon!
Fortunately, the dragons' thick scales provided them with extremely high defense and magic resistance. In addition, the forbidden magic array continuously weakened the power of these Nascent Soul True Monarchs, so the two dragons were barely able to hold on.

All they have to do now is stall!

The longer it drags on, the greater the impact of the forbidden magic array will be on everyone.

When these people can no longer even use the most basic spells and can only rely on their physical bodies to fight, Erlong can kill them as easily as crushing ants!
The Nascent Soul True Monarchs of various forces, including Qingyue Dao Sect and Cangkong Mountain, clearly knew that the longer the dragging on, the more disadvantageous it would be for their side.

"Gentlemen, find a way to lure this beast away while I capture these people!"

In the midst of the battle to besiege the Black Dragon, the old man from Ziyang Mountain suddenly shouted and charged towards Shen Wen'an and the other three, who were being protected by the Black Dragon!
Upon seeing this, the black dragon immediately spewed out a plume of black smoke and flames, sweeping towards the old man from Ziyang Mountain.

"You beast, stop your rampage!"

"Heavenly One Profound Water Shield!" The Black Dragon wanted to pull the elder from Ziyang Mountain back into the battle, but the other Nascent Soul True Monarchs naturally understood that as long as the elder from Ziyang Mountain could capture Shen Wen'an and the others, they would have the bargaining chips in their hands!
At that time, not only could they force Xu Xiu to open the forbidden formation and let them out, but they might even be able to take the precious blood with them.

The black smoke and flames spewed out by the black dragon were blocked by the Heavenly Profound Water Shield summoned by an old woman!
Despite being forced back by the power of the dragon flames, the Nascent Soul old woman managed to hold on, buying enough time for the elder of Ziyang Mountain!

Below, Shen Wen'an and his companions saw the old man from Ziyang Mountain swooping down like a roc spreading its wings!

Xu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly, a strong fighting spirit flashing within them!

"Senior, let's go and have a go at that old guy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden skull beside him suddenly transformed into a beam of golden light and soared into the sky!

Xu Zhan followed closely behind, his Ink Horn Poison Dragon Spear blazing with an aura that seemed to want to pierce the heavens as he charged toward the old man of Ziyang Mountain!
At the same time, Shen Li also moved.

She summoned the phantom wearing the crown of jade flowers once again, and began to dance a mysterious and ancient war dance!

The deep, powerful sound of drums came from the distant void!
Strange circles of light accompanied the movement of the phantom, flashing continuously around the group, as if shrouding them in a special protective shield!

Shen Wen'an, holding a long sword, was about to rush forward to help when Shen Wenxing grabbed his shoulder.

"Protect the fox and its father."

"This old man is to be handed over to me and Xu Zhan."

As soon as he finished speaking, he charged directly into the void battlefield with his white bone spear in hand!

With the golden skull entangled with the old man from Ziyang Mountain, he and Xu Zhan only needed to unleash their full power.

The golden skeleton possessed near-invincible defense; its skeleton, seemingly forged from gold, withstood the old man of Ziyang Mountain's magical attacks without leaving a single mark.

Moreover, not long after the two sides clashed, the power of the Forbidden Array seemed to have increased again.

The old man from Ziyang Mountain's aura weakened noticeably, and the power of his spells was greatly reduced!
"Damn it!"

"What on earth is this strange skeleton?!"

Unable to utilize the power of its own blood and qi, the golden skull's attacks lacked sufficient power to harm the old man of Ziyang Mountain.

But it was like a martial arts master, with fluid movements and super strong defense, it kept the old man tightly entangled, preventing him from launching an attack on Shen Wenxing and Xu Zhan!
Xu Zhan and Shen Wenxing, however, are different.

Both of them are now considered to be at the peak of the fifth realm of body cultivation. In particular, the spear in Shen Wenxing's hand was once a gift from his bloodline ancestor and contains a trace of murderous aura that has killed super strong people!

Every move he made secretly surprised the old man from Ziyang Mountain.

At this moment, the old man from Ziyang Mountain felt his frustration reach its limit.

A dignified late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator is now being entangled by a strange skeleton and two fifth-realm body cultivators, and is even gradually falling into a disadvantageous position!
If this gets out, he'll be utterly humiliated!
Battlefield overhead.

Heilong was worried that the old man from Ziyang Mountain who had escaped the battle would ruin the whole plan.

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of Shen Wenxing and his companion, along with a strange skeleton, actually suppressing a Nascent Soul True Monarch. Overjoyed, he immediately launched a fierce attack on the Nascent Soul True Monarchs in front of him!

The power of the forbidden array has increased, making these Nascent Soul True Monarchs from beyond the boundary even weaker!
In another battlefield by Lu Benshui, an unfortunate Outer Realm Nascent Soul True Monarch had been injured and fell screaming as he plummeted towards the lava-filled earth below.

Outside the forbidden formation, in the void, Shen Chongzhen looked down at Shen Wenxing and Xu Zhan, who were fighting the old man from Ziyang Mountain. His lips moved, and he wanted to ask Chu Xiangyu to help him kill the old man from Ziyang Mountain.

"I cannot break through this forbidden formation."

Chu Xiangyu seemed to sense Shen Chongzhen's thoughts, and after speaking in a deep voice, she added, "The Great Lord of Daying is meticulous in his thinking, and his many schemes are truly admirable."

"With him protecting you, your Shen family will be safe."

Looking at the endless seawater that had already spread around them, Chu Xiangyu sighed and said, "Let's go, the Yangnao Land no longer exists."

"We should head back now."

"Once this matter is settled and your Shen family has stabilized, we can discuss the matter of you and Xuan'er becoming Daoist partners."

Upon hearing this, Shen Chongzhen looked with some reluctance at Yunshui City, which had become ruins within the forbidden array.

Looking at her father, who stood proudly in the void with his sword on the ruins, she turned and walked towards the Ice God Ship, turning back every few steps.

After he and Zhou Xuan boarded the Ice God Ship, Chu Xiangyu glanced once more at the top of the forbidden array, where Xu Xiu and Feng Jingyang were fighting against the Yin Si and Jie Huo Sect, before gracefully landing at the bow of the Ice God Ship.

The Ice God Ship transformed into a streak of light and flew away into the distance!

……

"Blue-faced King, after all these years, your strength hasn't improved much compared to back then."

Xu Xiu lightly beckoned with his finger, using a transparent thread to dismember the body of the Yin Si monster that had transformed into its true form into countless fragments, and looked at the weakened Qingmian King with a sneer.

The Green-Faced King's effeminate face was filled with rage. He clenched his fists tightly and said, "Old bastard, I didn't expect that not only has your strength recovered to its peak, but you have also mastered the forbidden formation."

Xu Xiu smiled upon hearing this.

"It was the timing, the circumstances..."

"Killing you all this time is merely a small interest I'm collecting."

"In the future, whether it is the Ancient Central Continent or the Youdu Continent, I will personally pay a visit."

"You can go in peace, it won't be long..."

After saying this, a transcendent and ethereal aura suddenly appeared on Xu Xiu's body!

These energies rose into the void, slowly forming one transparent thread after another!

Numerous threads crisscrossed and spread throughout the void.

"This is the Thread-Pulling Immortal Technique. To die under such an immortal technique is an honor for you."

At this moment, Xu Xiu was like a high and mighty immortal, looking down with a compassionate expression at the many Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Underworld and the Calamity Fire Sect.

His left hand was behind his back, while his right hand gently moved the empty space in front of him.

Countless almost invisible threads crisscrossed, slowly reaping the lives of these Nascent Soul True Monarchs before them!
The power of the forbidden formation is growing stronger and stronger. These Nascent Soul True Monarchs from outside the realm have now been reduced to around the early Nascent Soul stage due to the restrictions of the formation.

With such strength, they had virtually no chance of resisting Xu Xiu, who possessed "immortal arts".

Xu Xiu, who had already taken control of the situation, developed a cat-and-mouse mentality. Although he could have killed them all in one fell swoop, he chose to end their lives one by one.

Seeing the anger, despair, and helplessness on their faces, Xu Xiu felt the resentment that had been building up in his heart for thousands of years finally released.

He still remembered how the major powers had humiliated him in the same way, forcing the Seven Sons of Yangnao to die one after another in front of him.

The old man from the Calamity Fire Sect is right.

He was using the Seven Sons of Yangnao, but using them is one thing, and friendship is another.

At least among the Seven Sons of Yangnao back then, there were a few whom he greatly admired.

Such as Luo Tianxing, the Dragon-Raising Immortal, and Qu Zigui, the Green Bamboo Sword Immortal...

puff!
While reminiscing about his deceased friends and jokingly killing the members of the Underworld and the Calamity Fire Sect in front of him, Xu Xiu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen!
He came to his senses and looked down blankly at his lower abdomen, where a blood-stained hand emerged, holding his nascent soul that radiated endless light!
Xu Xiu was stunned. He turned around with difficulty and saw a familiar face.

“Jingyang, you…”

puff!
Before he could finish speaking, Feng Jingyang abruptly withdrew his hand, grasped his nascent soul in his grasp, and said with a mocking expression, "Great Ying True Lord, you didn't expect this, did you?"

Feng Jingyang's voice changed, and so did his aura.

Even the flesh and bones on his face were twisted in a bizarre way, turning into a look that left Xu Xiu somewhat bewildered, followed by a look of utter astonishment.

"Loni the Bald Monk!?"

"How could it be you!?"

Xu Xiu still doesn't understand how Lou Ni, whom he imprisoned in Zhanlong Valley to seize the Dao Source of the entire Tianlong Temple Secret Realm, could have escaped in the form of Feng Jingyang.

What he found even more incomprehensible was that the other party had not only deceived his senses, but also failed to recognize this forbidden array!
After all, the Forbidden Array was set up using the remaining Dao Source Power of Yangnao Land. Venerable Louni was not a native cultivator of Yangnao Land, so it was impossible for him to be deceived by the array.

No matter how well he disguised himself, Xu Xiu would inevitably notice and take precautions if he were affected by the forbidden array.

"The True Lord doesn't understand?"

Holding Xu Xiu's struggling nascent soul in his hand, Venerable Louni smiled mockingly, then sighed, "Although True Lord treated this humble monk this way back then, it was because this humble monk was kind-hearted."

"Now let the True Lord be an enlightened ghost."

This Venerable Lou Ni seemed to know that the Great Lord of Great Ying was very arrogant and always had absolute confidence in his plans. This time, he wanted to humiliate him before he died.

This is a case of "killing someone by destroying their spirit"!
"Does the True Lord think that planting false memories within me back then, leaving me in a daze in Dragon Slaying Valley, and unknowingly helping you extract the Dao Source of Tianlong Temple, was a brilliant move?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiu was taken aback.

"You all know?"

Lou Ni sighed softly and turned to look at the two astonished figures from the Calamity Fire Sect and the Underworld not far away.

Just now, Xu Xiu killed eight of the ten Nascent Soul True Monarchs from both families.

If it weren't for Venerable Lou Ni's intervention, these two would have already perished.

"Does the True Lord not know what a 'Buddhist disciple' is?"

“Those who are disciples of the Buddha cannot be competent without great wisdom.”

"This great wisdom refers to the innate wisdom."

"The True Lord has shattered my spiritual bones, but he never expected that I also possess wisdom."

After a pause, Venerable Lou Ni flicked his finger, releasing a burst of spiritual energy that temporarily sealed the bloody hole in Xu Xiu's abdomen.

"Having seen through your scheme, this humble monk has been pretending to cooperate, reincarnating and reborn again and again in the Dragon Slaying Valley."

"This humble monk is waiting for an opportunity!"

A flash of violence appeared in Lou Ni's eyes. He suddenly swung his hand and flipped Xu Xiu's body to the ground. Then he looked down at him and laughed, "Does True Lord know that Feng Jingyang has always been very dissatisfied with you?"

"Did you know that his ambition had always been there?"

"This is my chance!"

“Every time he went to investigate the young monk, the young monk would give him a hint using the ‘Sutra of Seeking Affinity and Salvation’…”

"Finally, after the True Lord left for Dragon Slaying Valley last time, this humble monk has completely converted him."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiu's face showed a look of realization.

He struggled to sit up, and said with a sad smile, "I had planned everything, but I never expected that you would actually be able to convert that fool..."

"Truly, this is hopeless..."

"Did you hear that!? Did you hear that!?"

"Feng Jingyang, Feng Jingyang, I told you, that old man doesn't respect you at all!"

As soon as Xu Xiu finished speaking, Lou Ni started screaming like a madman!

With his shout, the flesh on his face twitched again, and his breathing changed.

Then it transformed into the appearance of Feng Jingyang.

At this moment, Feng Jingyang looked disappointed and quietly asked Xu Xiu, "In your heart, sir, is Jingyang really so worthless?"

Xu Xiu frowned slightly, clearly unaware of what kind of evil magic Lou Ni Venerable had used to transform his body back into Feng Jingyang.

He didn't answer.

Upon seeing this, Feng Jingyang said with a heavy heart, "Whether it was back then or now, whatever you ask me to do, I will do."

"Having guarded that desolate place of Dragon Slaying Valley for hundreds of years, has Jingyang ever uttered a single complaint to you, sir?"

Feng Jingyang raised his voice slightly, his tone full of accusation.

Xu Xiu sneered.

He knew it was too late to say anything now.

Since Venerable Louni dared to let Feng Jingyang regain control of his body, it meant that he was absolutely confident in controlling Feng Jingyang.

At that moment, Xu Xiu suddenly realized something!

This is my destiny, this is my fate.

All the previous methods and schemes ultimately failed to deceive fate; the inevitable calamity could not be avoided.

"talk!"

"Am I truly inferior to Luo Tianxing in your eyes?"

"Not even as good as Zhang Zeduan who betrayed you!?"

Seeing the sneer on Xu Xiu's face, Feng Jingyang suddenly became furious and then questioned him hysterically.

Xu Xiu looked at him, his expression indifferent, and said, "Compared to those two, you're just a fool..."

Upon hearing this, Feng Jingyang was stunned for a moment, and then a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes!
With a sudden burst of force, he crushed the struggling nascent soul in his hand on the spot!

puff!
The moment his nascent soul exploded, Xu Xiu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body aged rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Her full head of silver hair lost its luster and fell out strand by strand; her rosy skin also deflated like a punctured balloon, quickly becoming dry and shriveled!
In the blink of an eye, he turned into a lifeless, dried-up corpse and plummeted towards the lava-filled earth below!
As Xu Xiu's nascent soul was crushed, he died completely, and the forbidden array in the surrounding void that he controlled began to slowly dissipate.

In the void, the flesh on Feng Jingyang's face twitched.

"Wait a moment!"

"I still have unfulfilled wishes!"

"Didn't you say that the best way to achieve the formless Brahma body is to free me from all attachments?"

Feng Jingyang's voice rang out.

Then the voice of Venerable Louni came out of his mouth again: "What other wishes do you have?"

Feng Jingyang turned to look at the two Nascent Soul True Monarchs not far away, one from the Underworld and the other from the Calamity Fire Sect, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes!
"Although the old man looks down on me, I have to help him kill these two people."

"Even if it weren't for him, I still want to avenge my past self!"

Before he finished speaking, Feng Jingyang's body moved like a ghost, leaving a series of afterimages as he attacked the two of them!
Bang!
Bang!
When Feng Jingyang's body returned to its original position, the two Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the distant void mysteriously exploded, turning into a rain of blood that fell downwards.

As for their nascent souls, they dissipated along with their bodies.

"Is this all right now?"

When Venerable Louni's voice rang out, Feng Jingyang remained silent.

His gaze turned toward the southern border, but all he saw was the endless sea.

His facial muscles contorted, and he transformed back into the appearance of Venerable Lou Ni.

After the transformation ended, Venerable Louni looked at his body, touched his bald head, then tilted his head back, closed his eyes, and murmured with a look of enjoyment, "Don't worry, this humble monk will live well with your body..."

……

Below, Lu Benshui, who was fighting with many Nascent Soul Realm True Monarchs, and the black dragon in the Nascent Soul Realm both sensed that Xu Xiu's aura disappeared instantly the moment his Nascent Soul was crushed!
Erlong was shocked and confused as to what had happened!

Meanwhile, the Nascent Soul True Monarchs who were already on the verge of collapse suddenly discovered that the power of the forbidden array surrounding them was rapidly declining!

The dark purple runes in the void are also gradually fading!

"The forbidden array is about to dissipate!?"

"That old fellow, True Lord Daying, must have perished!"

"Everyone, quickly join me in breaking this forbidden array, and then we'll deal with these two reptiles!"

someone exclaimed.

The many Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the arena, looking miserable, immediately soared into the sky and launched terrifying attacks at the dim array patterns!

"Quickly follow me to the Five Elements Secret Realm!"

Above the ruins of Yunshui City, Shen Wenxing and Xu Zhan, having heard the shout from earlier and seeing the old man from Ziyang Mountain fleeing the battlefield in a disheveled state, were filled with worry when Shen Yuan's voice suddenly rang in their ears.

At the same time, Shen Li and Shen Wen'an below also heard Shen Yuan's telepathic message.

The four of them were taken aback for a moment, then immediately deepened their light and flew towards the back mountain!

"If Senior Black Dragon has nowhere to go, why not stay at my Shen family for the time being!"

On his way to the back mountain, Shen Wenxing caught a glimpse of the somewhat bewildered black dragon in the void above his head. He felt a surge of emotion and couldn't help but speak.

Upon hearing this, the black dragon hesitated for a moment, but when it turned around and saw that Lu Benshui had already escaped, it let out a roar of resentment and chased after Shen Wenxing and the others!
boom!
With the combined efforts of numerous Nascent Soul True Monarchs above, the forbidden formation, which had been left unattended, was finally shattered!
With the suppression of the forbidden formation gone, the many Nascent Soul True Monarchs who had recovered their strength noticed Shen Wenxing and the others fleeing towards the Five Elements Secret Realm. They immediately disregarded their injuries and chased after them one after another!
