From Five Animal Exercises to being hailed as a saint and ancestor

Xu Ziyi's breath was as faint as a candle flickering in the wind, almost imperceptible.

That eerie pink hue spread across her pale face, like the mark of death.

Yao Mengkang held her gradually cooling body, his heart breaking. He tried various medicines, but to no avail.

Despair overwhelmed him like a cold tide.

Just when he was on the verge of collapse, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind—Star Liquid!

He remembered clearly the three drops of star liquid left by the stone bead in the chaotic chakra when he deduced the Chaos Star God Technique at the Starfall Platform.

Try anything, no matter how desperate!

Without hesitation, Yao Mengkang conjured a drop of multicolored liquid in his palm, which slowly flowed, shimmering with light.

He carefully dripped the liquid onto Xu Ziyi's slightly parted lips, which were too weak to swallow.

A miracle happened!

The moment the drop of multicolored liquid touched Xu Ziyi's lips, it transformed into a ray of multicolored light and instantly merged into her body.

An indescribable, gentle yet incredibly powerful force of life, like sweet rain, poured over Xu Ziyi's parched and dying meridians and internal organs!

Her life force, which had been plummeting like a cliff, suddenly stopped.

It actually managed to stop the trend of dissipation!

Although it was still pitifully faint, flickering like a firefly, it no longer continued to dim!

The eerie pink hue on her face stopped spreading and even faded slightly.

efficient!

Yao Mengkang's extremely tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief, only to find that his back was completely soaked with cold sweat.

He held Xu Ziyi tightly, feeling her faint but real life force, and a trace of relief at surviving a disaster flashed in his bloodshot eyes.

This star liquid is incredibly powerful!

The fellow disciples were enraged, their killing intent soaring to the heavens.

The scene of Xu Ziyi being seriously injured and on the verge of death while saving Yao Mengkang deeply moved all the disciples of the academy present!

"younger sister!"

Xu Zijian's eyes widened in fury, and he let out a beast-like roar!

The lightning around him erupted with unprecedented intensity, and his whole body seemed to transform into a human-shaped lightning bolt!

The last black-clad guard who fought him was cleaved in two by his enraged strike, his charred body falling to the ground, emitting wisps of smoke.

Without even looking, he rushed to Yao Mengkang's side together with Shi Hao, who was also roaring and charging forward.

On the left and right, like two angry Vajras, they tightly protected Yao Mengkang, who was holding Xu Ziyi, in the middle.

They cautiously scanned their surroundings for any potential dangers.

On the other side, Mu Qingqing's usually calm and rational eyes were now filled with a cold killing intent!

She and Zhou Tiancan exchanged a glance; no words were needed, their understanding was unspoken.

"The myriad phenomena of the universe!"

Mu Qingqing shouted, forming a hand seal, and an invisible wave spread out from her center!

In an instant, the scene within a radius of several dozen feet centered on her and Zhou Tiancan changed drastically!

Countless exotic flowers and plants grew out of thin air, vines entwined, and towering trees reached for the sky, filling the air with a rich and strange fragrance—this was her trump card!

This field is both beautiful and deadly!

Those extremely beautiful flowers trembled slightly, spraying out colorless and odorless yet hallucinogenic pollen.

The seemingly harmless vines, like venomous snakes, silently coiled around the enemy's ankles.

The shadows cast by the towering trees twisted and writhed, interfering with perception...

The black-clad guards trapped inside the area suddenly became like headless flies, their movements slowed down and their eyes began to glaze over.

Zhou Tiancan roared and charged wildly through the domain like a wild elephant that had broken free of its reins!

With the assistance of Mu Qingqing's domain, he was no longer hindered by speed, and his giant hammer swung like a tiger among sheep!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Each hammer blow was inevitably accompanied by the sound of a guard's bones shattering and his dying screams!

He was a force to be reckoned with in his domain, like a grim reaper reaping lives!

While maintaining such a powerful domain, Mu Qingqing's face turned pale at a visible speed.

His breathing was rapid, clearly indicating that he had expended a great deal of energy.

Wang Le and Huo Ling'er exchanged a glance, both seeing determination and anger in each other's eyes.

The two held hands tightly, and the spiritual energies of wind and fire merged and resonated at an unprecedented speed!

"A wildfire spreads!"

The two shouted in unison!

Flames shot up from Huo Ling'er's body, but under Wang Le's precise wind control, they did not spread wildly. Instead, they condensed into a huge fire storm that resembled a phoenix spreading its wings.

With terrifyingly high temperatures that could incinerate everything, it instantly devoured the three black-clad guards who were attacking them!

The agonizing screams abruptly ceased, leaving only three charred remains on the spot!

After unleashing this true fusion technique, both of them turned pale and their auras dropped significantly, clearly indicating that they had consumed a great deal of energy.

In the shadows, Li Han's killings became even more efficient and ruthless.

He seemed to have completely transformed into the shadow of death, flashing out of nothingness each time.

The cold, short blade would surely slice precisely across a guard's throat or heart, spraying blood before disappearing back into the darkness.

His presence instilled fear in the remaining black-clad guards, causing their morale to completely collapse.

Even Xuan Yuanpo, who was usually aloof and never showed his emotions, had a flash of cold anger in his eyes at this moment.

His swordsmanship no longer pursues elegance and agility, but has become extremely simple and efficient!

The number of sword strikes decreased, but each strike was as if it had been meticulously calculated, aiming straight for the vital points!

With each flash of the sword, a black-clad guard would fall, either with a pierced throat or a ruptured heart, the precision chilling to the bone.

The dust has settled, and the battlefield is temporarily quiet.

As the crowd erupted in fury, the remaining black-clad guards fell swiftly like harvested wheat.

In a short while, apart from the disciples of Qinglu Academy, there was not a single enemy standing on the long street.

The air was thick with the stench of blood, and severed limbs were scattered everywhere, telling the story of the fierce battle that had just taken place.

All the disciples had expended a great deal of energy, and their breathing was somewhat unstable.

Because she was maintaining the Senluo Wanxiang Domain, Mu Qingqing's face was as pale as paper, and she was being carefully supported by Zhou Tiancan.

Wang Le and Huo Ling'er leaned on each other, swallowing pills to restore their spiritual power.

Li Han still did not appear, but everyone knew that he must be hiding in the shadows, like the most vigilant hunter, protecting everyone.

Yao Mengkang carefully handed Xu Ziyi, who was unconscious but whose vital signs were temporarily stable, over to Xu Zijian for care.

"Protect her!" His voice was hoarse, carrying an undeniable resolve.

He raised his head, his blood-red eyes fixed on the battlefield high in the sky.

There, Luo Wuyai's Sorrowful Soul Sword Intent had completely suppressed Zhao Xiaoman, and Zhao Xiaoman's illusion was broken.

He had several deep, bone-revealing sword wounds on his body, his aura was weak, and he was about to be defeated and beheaded.

But Yao Mengkang couldn't wait any longer!

The thought of Xu Ziyi's dying state ignited boundless rage within him!

Zhao Xiaoman must die!

He was no longer burdened by any thoughts; his eyes were filled with a chaotic mix of confusion and crimson killing intent.

Feeling his meridians nearly empty due to the previous fierce battle and intense emotional fluctuations, he unhesitatingly summoned another drop of star liquid and swallowed the second drop!

"boom--!"

The moment the colorful liquid entered my stomach, it was like a sun being thrown into a dry riverbed!

An unimaginable surge of immense energy exploded instantly, like a torrent bursting its banks, rushing wildly into his nearly depleted meridians.

It was so stretchy that my meridians started to ache slightly!

But he couldn't care less about that right now!

He quickly approached the battlefield between Luo Wuyai and Zhao Xiaoman, frantically pouring surging energy into the Cloud-Splitting Blade in his hand!

The blade emitted a humming sound as if it could not bear the weight, and the dazzling five-colored light mixed with the hazy aura of the Chaos Star God Technique condensed and compressed on the blade!

Yao Mengkang let out a roar like a wounded beast and stomped his feet on the ground.

His figure transformed into a streak of multicolored light, rushing upwards and heading straight for Zhao Xiaoman, who was about to be defeated high in the sky!

He gripped the knife with both hands, using all his strength and willpower.

Facing the panicked Zhao Xiaoman, he unleashed the strongest attack he could muster!

A terrifying blade of light, stretching across the sky and swirling with chaotic energy and multicolored rays, tore through the clouds, carrying Yao Mengkang's boundless rage and killing intent.

He vowed to kill the vixen who had hurt his beloved!

A raging inferno soared into the sky, a single strike across the border!

However, Yao Mengkang underestimated the power of the Purple Mansion experts, and even more so the power contained in the Star Liquid.

After the slash was unleashed, the pressure on Yao Mengkang's meridians did not improve much; in fact, they were constantly being stretched to the point of rupture and then repaired by the power of the Star Liquid.

The Chaos Star God Technique was operating wildly and autonomously at an unprecedented speed, frantically refining this sudden surge of vast energy!

This energy was far too vast and pure, far exceeding the limits that the Opening Meridian Realm could contain!

Yao Mengkang felt his dantian swell, and the thirteen layers of barriers that were originally so stable when he opened his meridians were broken.

Under the impact of this energy, it began to vibrate violently and developed tiny cracks!

The cultivation technique operated on its own, seemingly trying to draw upon this power.

Open up the spiritual sea!
