“Oh, the young cannot be taught, and rotten wood cannot be carved! Then don’t blame this Master for being ruthless!”
“Save your preachy talk! If you want the Ghost Sutra and the Earth Treatise, just say so directly! Why go through such a detour? You call yourselves immortals, yet you’re insincere and boring! Take this—”
Qiao San’s fists had already launched before his words, and only when the fist’s magical illusion was half an inch from Yuanshi Tianwang did he shamelessly shout a greeting. This “courtesy” was indeed quite sophisticated.
As the lazy voice entered Yuanshi’s ears, it instantly exploded like a tidal wave crashing with mountain-shaking force.
Ordinary people would never guard against such a shameless underhanded trick. Fortunately, Yuanshi Tianwang was no ordinary being. His soul stirred, instantly sealing off his six senses.
As the leader of the scattered immortals shifted his immortal body, the ruffian’s punch missed its target. Yuanshi then gently shook his head, causing the rogue’s “sound wave” to be flung from his ears toward the ground with a thunderous roar, reducing an innocent mountain to dust.
“Young fellow, you have remarkable abilities. In such a short time, you’ve already entered the realm of Da Luo Golden Demon. Truly a once-in-a-generation genius. Sigh, what a pity, such a pity…”
The lingering sound of the two “pities” was clear and resonant, but it caused Qiao San’s pupils to contract. He hastily leapt backward to retreat.
The intent to kill was even more evident within the regret. Yuanshi Tianwang’s sigh was also full of subtlety. The drifting “sound wave” blasted the rogue into a dusty, flustered mess, clearly revealing the disparity in their powers.
At the same time, Yushan launched an attack against Taiyuan. The demoness was indeed a demoness. Although her daughter hadn’t even reached her “first month,” she was still brought to the battlefield. “Hongyun, spew fire to assist your mother!”
“Okay!” Naturally, the little devil girl stood on her parents’ side. She puffed her delicate, porcelain-like cheeks, then opened her rosy lips, spewing forth a large burst of true fire.
As soon as the true fire appeared, the white jade treasure fan immediately whipped up a violent gale. Fire rode the wind, and wind fueled the flames. This demoness mother and daughter surprisingly fought in perfect harmony.
Yushan’s magical power was originally superior to Taiyuan’s, and with the devil star’s assistance, she was like a tiger gaining wings. However, the holy Taiyuan showed no sign of tension. Her jade lips barely moved when the Divine Law Sutra automatically floated into the air. The first scripture spun like a windmill, rapidly stirring up a powerful spatial vortex that instantly sucked in the wind and fire.
The power of the Divine Law infuriated and envious Yushan. After her fan’s first move failed, she no longer delayed. Changing the direction of the wind, she aimed directly at Yuanshi Tianwang.
As the soul-piercing black wind blew over, Yuanshi did not use any magical treasures but instead used his magical barrier to forcefully resist the dark wind. Indeed, a Grand Luo Immortal Saint lived up to his reputation, as the white jade fan could not budge him.
Though her magical treasures repeatedly failed, Yushan showed no sign of frustration. The demoness had never truly hoped to defeat her opponent so easily. With a swift movement, she arrived beside Qiao San. Swinging her treasure fan, she wrapped the “family of three” inside it and then flew off into the distance with a swoosh.
The shrieking sound of space tearing still echoed. Above the floating void and clouds, the figures were already gone. Yuanshi and his wife had meticulously planned for a long time. How could they allow the Shi Yang Body and the demoness to escape so easily?
Two streaks of rainbow light successively cut across the sky above Zunlong City, their thunderous roars sharp and ear-piercing, causing the Empress Jade and the Queen, surrounded by a large group of rebels within the palace, to involuntarily show signs of joy.
Indeed, the red light fell into the palace, but it instantly vanished, turning the Empress Jade’s delight and the cultivators’ panic into nothingness.
The young puppet emperor was held in Beigong Ping’s arms. The rebels who had rapidly occupied the palace did not deliver the final blow to their enemies, for they all knew that the true outcome of this rebellion did not depend on them!
The entire palace trembled like an earthquake amidst the crashing sounds. Within the golden throne hall, the highest symbol of imperial power on earth, the Yushan family of three were already cornered with no way out. Yuanshi’s boundless magical power and Taiyuan’s invincible scriptures formed a heaven-spanning net that trapped Qiao San, Yushan, and their daughter.
“Yushan, didn’t you absorb Gouxin’s magic power? Why are you so weak?” Qiao San barely blocked Yuanshi Tianwang’s seemingly clumsy but skillful punch, feeling a surge of heat in his throat, and couldn’t help spitting out a stream of blood.
“How can the profound ‘Heartless and Formless Technique’ reach perfection in just a few days? Don’t talk nonsense!”
The white jade fan barely blocked another gust of fist wind. The demoness was actually in a good mood at this moment, still arguing with the rogue.
“Mama, Papa, there’s a hole here! Let’s escape quickly!” Little Hongyun accidentally noticed a hidden passage beneath the dragon throne. Without waiting for her arguing parents to respond, the little devil girl had already rushed inside.
Qiao San and Yushan were no strangers to that hole. Knowing it led to a dead end, they still had to follow their child inside.
Figures flickered continuously, the scene changed, and the Yuanshi couple had already driven the three demons to the center of the underground formation.
“Bold San, heaven cherishes life. If you return my scriptures and destroy your own powers, this Master will spare your life.”
“Damn it, still so hypocritical and despicable! The treasures of chaos belong only to heaven and earth. What right do you, a mere immortal, have to claim ownership?”
Qiao San stood straight, shielding his daughter, while Yushan held little Hongyun and retreated several steps. Her agile, long, beautiful eyes swept left and right, seemingly searching for an escape route.
“Sigh… Since you insist on persisting in error, then endure the suffering of the Six Realms of Reincarnation!”
At the moment of killing, Yuanshi appeared compassionate toward heaven and earth. With a sigh, he raised a single palm, and Taiyuan’s Divine Law flew into his hand. A Grand Luo Immortal Saint plus the sacred scriptures and treasures caused the entire underground space to shudder mysteriously, seemingly contracting into a single point in an instant.
“Ugh!”
Muffled groans echoed in their throats. Qiao San’s feet stepped backward one by one. With each step, his figure shrank further. After more than ten steps, he had shrunk to the size of a three-inch figurine, on the verge of soul destruction and eternal reincarnation.
Indeed, the power of the Heaven-Ending Formation was unimaginable. Although the scriptures were incomplete, being only a residual formation, it was still more than enough to imprison the Ten Suns Pearl.
“Ha, ha…”
As Qiao San faced extreme danger, Yushan let out a silvery laugh. Her delight overflowed, “Yuanshi, heaven has paved a road you refused to take, and hell had no door, yet you came yourself! Today, this Queen will make you taste the sensation of soul destruction and annihilation!”
The Queen of Myriad Demons raised her treasure fan, and a sudden burst of flame erupted within the Thunderfire Formation. Although the formation’s core had been destroyed that day, it had not entirely vanished.
The flames illuminated Yushan’s triumphant figure, also revealing Qiao San’s three-inch form in shock. How could mere thunderfire possibly destroy a Grand Luo Immortal Saint? Had Yushan gone mad from desperation?!
Though the immortal couple did not mock with words, the amusement in their eyes was evident. No one, except perhaps the Queen and Yushan, could imagine any reason for Yuanshi’s defeat.
