Chapter 531: Chaotic Battle

Shui Miao sucked in a cold breath in an instant and hurriedly turned around…

“Whoosh!”

Before Shui Miao could fully turn his body, a gust of wind roared past his ear, and the scene before him changed abruptly. He had already been pulled inside a magical treasure.

“One Strike of the Inevitable Death, what are you doing?!”

“One Strike of the Inevitable Death, quickly release our friend!”

Shui Miao had been captured, and both Bu Yi and Meng San Niang were shocked.

In the blink of an eye, One Strike of the Inevitable Death had already leapt to a tall tree over a hundred meters away.

“Brother Bu, this Shui Miao is a wanted criminal by the Immortal Realm. It’s my duty to capture him. If you insist he is your friend, I’m afraid the Yu Xu Sect will not spare you. So, just wait patiently for the Dragon Blood. If you make trouble, I, One Strike of the Inevitable Death, will show no mercy.”

After finishing his words, One Strike of the Inevitable Death began playing his flute again.

The flute’s sound was eerily lingering, making people feel extremely annoyed.

Bu Yi paced back and forth like an ant on a hot pan. He had never expected such a situation to arise and had his plans interrupted here. He cursed inwardly that Bu Xiang and Bu Fa had remained in the Forgotten Soul Valley, while he himself had grown old and weak, unable to confront One Strike of the Inevitable Death. As for Meng San Niang, her strength wasn’t in combat, so she couldn’t offer much help either.

“Don’t worry, Bu Yi. Shui Miao is a lucky person, and he will be fine. Moreover, he still has your Tian Dou Si Xiang Formation on him. Once that formation is activated, they will surely perish without a burial place.” Meng San Niang grabbed Bu Yi’s arm and quickly transmitted these thoughts into his mind.

In this situation, Bu Yi could do nothing but worry helplessly.

“You are Shui Miao?”

“Wow! You actually came right into our trap!”

“Hahaha! Get up, let me see how capable you really are…”

“That’s right, he is Shui Miao—the very Shui Miao. He’s extremely cunning, so don’t believe a word he says.”

Inside the magical treasure, thirty-six Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Yu Xu Sect were hiding.

Among them was Huo Houzi, the Golden Immortal who had escaped from the stone cave beneath the dry well.

Upon seeing Shui Miao, Huo Houzi immediately started shouting. He had an unforgettable impression of Shui Miao.

Surrounded by a large group of Great Luo Golden Immortals, this was a first for Shui Miao.

Shui Miao slowly stood up. With his spiritual senses, he discovered he could actually sense their power levels, and a wave of joy surged in his heart. Had his strength surpassed theirs? Indeed, Shui Miao had cultivated for over six thousand years inside the Tower of Time. After leaving the Forgotten Soul Valley, he had cultivated for several hundred more years. His power had already reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage.

Feeling that these enemies weren’t particularly strong, Shui Miao grew calm.

He didn’t rush to attack, after all, there were thirty-six of them, and even fists might struggle against so many hands.

While gradually activating his immortal energy, Shui Miao used the Soul Devouring Power to protect himself and fully activated the Jing Hun Pearl to shield his body. If necessary, he planned to activate the Tian Dou Si Xiang Formation at any moment.

“Huh? What exactly has this kid cultivated? Why can’t I sense his cultivation level?”

“Strange, I can’t sense it either!”

“Could it be… that this kid has a supreme immortal artifact on him?”

“He’s with that millennium corpse Bai Lian; his power isn’t particularly impressive. But he might actually have a supreme immortal treasure on him!”

“Search his body!”

Several Golden Immortals frowned and whispered among themselves, and Huo Houzi jumped up again, shouting loudly.

Indeed, Shui Miao carried too many treasures. To say nothing else, the Jing Hun Pearl itself was a supreme artifact.

At the mention of supreme artifacts, the thirty-six Great Luo Golden Immortals all became excited. Their eyes gleamed with golden light as they rushed forward to seize and search Shui Miao.

But at that moment, a sudden urgent voice echoed inside the magical treasure, “Quickly come out and form the formation to kill the enemy. I’ve already lured out the evil dragons.”

“The evil dragons are out!”

“What about this kid?”

“Leave him to me!”

A tall and imposing Golden Immortal wearing a jade robe, a feathered crown, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and an overbearing aura, holding a golden pagoda, suddenly captured Shui Miao inside the pagoda.

This Golden Immortal was Lu Yi, known as the Jade-Faced Virtuous Monarch, the leader of these Golden Immortals.

Then, the thirty-six Great Luo Golden Immortals immediately exited the magical treasure, forming the Earth-Slaughtering Demon Extermination Formation to battle the four evil dragons alongside One Strike of the Inevitable Death.

These four evil dragons were all supreme experts at the Xian Zun level.

One Strike of the Inevitable Death alone could not resist the four evil dragons.

With the Earth-Slaughtering Demon Extermination Formation formed by the thirty-six Great Luo Golden Immortals to restrain them, One Strike of the Inevitable Death could then freely unleash destruction.

“Dragon-Slaying Slash!”

One Strike of the Inevitable Death roared, his figure flashing rapidly. In an instant, he had severely wounded one of the evil dragons, and the dragon’s blood sprayed out like heavy rain.

Far away, Bu Yi shook his head repeatedly, “Impossible, absolutely impossible. A cultivator couldn’t possibly develop such terrifying speed. There must be something strange about One Strike of the Inevitable Death. Perhaps he is wearing an artifact that can control the speed of time.”

“An artifact that controls external time? Do such artifacts even exist?” Meng San Niang looked at Bu Yi with great confusion.

Bu Yi waved his hand, “Not controlling external time, but an artifact that changes a cultivator’s perception speed of external time. Such artifacts have appeared in legends before. There was once a martial cultivator who used one, but he was soon personally killed by the Immortal Emperor.”

“Let me check and find out!”

An artifact that controls rapid body movement—if obtained, it would greatly enhance their survival ability. Meng San Niang’s heart raced with excitement. She quickly focused her spiritual senses to detect more detailed information from One Strike of the Inevitable Death.

“Roar!”

The four Dragon Lords were enraged. Two of them, plus the already wounded one, launched fierce attacks against One Strike of the Inevitable Death.

The fourth Dragon Lord suddenly transformed into a giant dragon and swallowed the Earth-Slaughtering Demon Extermination Formation set by the thirty-six Golden Immortals, then began forcibly refining them.

Dragon Lords devouring opponents also judged their targets.

Someone like One Strike of the Inevitable Death was like a meat grinder; even they dared not swallow him.

But these Golden Immortals were of no concern to the dragon.

“Boom!”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

“Cursed! This evil dragon doesn’t know its place, daring to swallow us! Everyone, quickly release your immortal swords and pierce several huge holes in its body!” Yu Yan De Jun roared furiously, first summoning his top-grade divine weapon, the Rainbow-Flying Sword.

But just then, a blood-red mist suddenly descended from the sky, wrapping around all the swords.

A Dragon Lord wouldn’t dare swallow people recklessly without some skill.

“No good! This mist is poisonous—it’s a supreme evil thing, the nemesis of immortals. Everyone quickly gather together, use all your artifacts to strike downward, break through its dragon belly, and escape…”

“Splash! Splash! Splash!”

Suddenly, a large amount of Rakshasa seawater poured in, as the evil dragon aimed to disrupt the formation of the Golden Immortals and then destroy them one by one.

“Ahh! My hand!”

In the chaos, Yu Yan De Jun suddenly felt a sharp pain in his palm and couldn’t help but throw away the golden pagoda in his hand.

“Hehe, you actually tried to trap me with the golden pagoda?”

Inside the pagoda, Shui Miao sneered coldly. He had already used his Soul Devouring Power to destroy the pagoda’s spirit and modified some of its structure.
