Chapter 476: Chapter 473 Changgeng Enlightenment, Stepping Out of the Game

At the same time.

In the heart of Liangzhou, Hidden Soldier Valley, where the Crow Army was stationed, had already turned into scorched land—a molten lava hell.

As the preset curse was triggered.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...

The Thunderclap Fire Talismans placed in various locations and the Mixed Element Thunderbolts made from Rashamon Bone instantly set off an earth-shattering series of explosions.

The valley walls on both sides hummed with the force of the blasts.

Soon after, blazing red lotuses blossomed one after another within the enclosed valley.

Fierce flames on the ground and the howling North Wind above created intense convection, giving rise to fiery tornadoes that connected earth to sky in an instant.

It was as if a dozen demons from the fiery pits of hell were fully unleashing their divine might.

All buildings lucky enough to have initially survived the blasts were ground into ash.

Even the Fire Crow Soldiers, who had awakened the Innate Divine Ability of Chua Fire Divine Wind, simply could not endure such devastation.

Especially since the Sky-Reaching General Yellow King, who was supposed to oversee everything, never appeared, thousands of Daoist Soldiers and numerous elite troops were quickly left dead or wounded amidst the chaos.

"General! Where is our General?"

The lower-ranking Dao Generals’ cries of despair were of no use.

The Tiger Talismans that controlled the Daoist Soldiers were always in Yellow King’s hands; without his permission, no one could execute the Ten Thousand Enemies Skill.

No matter how numerous, they were just a disorganized crowd.

What they didn’t know was that while their own fate was grim, Yellow King, the primary target of Shen Xiaoyu’s first round of strikes, was faring no better.

Upon hearing that terrifying secret, Wang Yuan, the third disciple already filled with dread, did not hurry back to report the news.

Instead, he took out the "Gun of Truth," which could inspire limitless courage and treat all sorts of fears.

Adhering to his master’s tactical philosophy that "there’s no problem that can’t be solved with one shot; if there is, then take another shot."

Taking advantage of the flaw when Yellow King, who embodied eighteen kinds of Innate Strange Phenomena, was immobile in his transformation towards the fifth realm "Martial Saint,"

he quietly retreated from the cave carved out of the mountain range, and went up to a ridge one mile away to set up the gun.

A cold snap suddenly struck.

All over Liangzhou, there was a foot of deep snow everywhere, which meant water was everywhere.

Even without the sisters Zisu and Hualing, who excelled in water magic to serve as the gun carriage, and without being near to the sea or a great lake,

the "Gun of Truth," a legacy from demon mantis shrimps, could still unleash its full might.

With an intense flash of light in the sky,

the earth shook and the mountain trembled.

A single shot capable of breaking down a fortress easily collapsed half a mountain wall and buried Yellow King deep beneath the ground.

Then without hesitation, he fired a second and third shot,

until he exhausted the daily limit of the Deceit Object, collapsing nearly half of the mountain valley.

Afterward, he mounted the Ghost Steed that could enter and exit the Yin Road at will, and pulled out a Hexagonal Iron Cannon, used by inner sect disciples of the Taiyin Xuanbing Dao.

Enhanced by Karmic Fire, it transformed into a blinding curtain of red, with even the fired bullets wrapped in Karmic Fire that could utterly burn sinners to ashes.

Continuing to fire, he turned those Fire Crow Soldiers who had narrowly survived and were trying to escape Hidden Soldier Valley into actual torches.

With pitiful screams, they carried thick smoke as they were hurled down from the sky.

Yet they utterly failed to detect the Assassin who had employed the Mountain Shifting and Scenery Changing Talisman.

In the process of sending them to the other shore, her "Red Spider Lily Blooming Skill" also made rapid progress; after all, blood blossoms, fire blossoms... all are blossoms.

It wasn’t until the highly resilient "Parasitic Shell," relying on the "Hundred Beasts Dharma Body" to turn into a mollusk, finally struggled out of a crevice.

That it finally had the fortune to see the true face of the attacker, three meters away.

Shen Xiaoyu’s complexion was frighteningly cold.

Before her "father," she slowly extended a clean and fair hand, drastically different from the one she had in the past.

"Give me back my father!"

The Parasitic Shell was slightly stunned, then recognized the girl’s identity from the brain of this body.

Was this the thin little fisher-girl who had dared to pull at its sleeve, trying to save her father back then?

After such a long time, she has found her way here, again asking for her father.

How similar is this moment to that moment in the past?

Only, the Parasitic Shell didn’t pay any regard to this girl who had changed so much and seemed to have grown beyond her former self.

The only aura on its body was that of the Red Seal.

What caused this devastating scene in Hidden Soldier Valley relied entirely on "Money Power" stolen from who knows where.

Given the way she spent money lavishly, it was already enough for those vassals to arrange their troops and fight a fierce battle.

But these mortal’s firearms, useful against Daoist Soldiers, were utterly ineffective against it.

Thus, the Parasitic Shell, using Shen Xiaoyu’s father’s face, showed the girl a despicable cold smile:

"Give you back?

Sure, piece by piece, okay?"

As it spoke, it gouged out one of the body’s eyes and casually tossed it at the girl’s feet.

Then a blood-drenched ear.

Shudder!

Quivering!

The strength that had sustained Shen Xiaoyu up till now, the resilience that had not failed her even when she was turned into a human pork by "Zi Buxu," collapsed thunderously at this very moment.

She placed her trembling right hand on the hilt of her sword at her waist and took a deep breath.

From that face in front of her, all too familiar yet all too strange, she finally accepted the reality that her father would never return.

Before the unheeding Parasitic Shell could react, she shouted:

"This entity is: ’Deceit Immortal·Parasitic Shell,’ its obsession is: surpassing all ’will to live,’ taboo: all flesh can be parasitized.

Buddha, open your eyes, please, sword, suppress the demon!"

Clang——!

The eyes of the Buddha cast in copper on the sword scabbard suddenly opened.

The treasured sword was unsheathed, and a flash of golden light streaked by in an instant.

The Parasitic Shell abruptly fell, rigidly crashing into the muddy ground.

Even the disdainful sarcasm remained on its face.

But it was unaware, ever since this "Heavenly Yi’s Noble" received the help of a noble person and the Qi Fortune burgeoned.

This moment was no longer the same as that moment in the past.

The "body," "Murder Taboo," and "Obsession" required for the Demon Suppression Sword, the first two were derived from the "Heart Communication Conch" that had faced the "Parasitic Shell."

"Obsession" originated from the Demon Master Daoist who was captured at the beginning.

There was no need for Shen Xiaoyu to risk using the "Red Spider Lily Blooming Skill" again, to sneak into the enemy’s mind to steal secrets.

Even more fortunately, the realm of "Dharma Body" was clearly not the limit of this sword.

Furthermore, the Demon Suppression Sword had directly slain the essence of this deceitful immortal, meaning that even if flesh and blood constructs still existed elsewhere, they could never be resurrected.

With a cold face, he silently placed his father, still fused with the "Parasitic Shell," into a coffin prepared in advance.

Naturally, he did not forget an eye, an ear.

Shen Xiaoyu was about to dispatch Yin Soldiers to see if the Yellow King buried in the mountain was indeed dead.

But suddenly, two streaks of Escape Light flew overhead.

"Edict from the Sect Master, the Yellow King is ordered to come forth and receive it!"

"Two Mages? Dragon Elephant Tao?"

Shen Xiaoyu’s expression changed, and she ignited a fierce fire all around her, thereby opening a "Fire Illuminating Path" to the beyond.

Taking her, she instantly vanished into the ground.

The next moment, she found herself in a majestic palace in the Underworld.

Upon seeing her master, surrounded by a faint aura of incense, nodding at her with a smile.

"Xiao Yu, welcome home."

The composure she had been feigning could no longer be maintained.

With a loud "waah," she fiercely threw herself into Wang Yuan’s arms, crying her heart out.

After slightly venting the injustices in her heart, she didn’t forget to convey all the intelligence she heard to her master.

Wang Yuan’s eyes twinkled with thoughts racing:

"Traitors within the Demon Master Dao and Dragon Elephant Tao are all forces under the control of the Underground Master, which is entirely within expectations.

To use a dozen Innate Strange Phenomena to forcibly create a Martial Saint? This idea is worth learning from.

Old Lei, the Hybrid Pioneer, must be very interested in this subject.

Most importantly, all the pieces of the puzzle have now been put together.

Zi Buxu: Strange Power and Chaotic Gods. ’Rebellion’ comes from Dragon Elephant Tao and the Crow Army; ’Ghost Gods’ refers to An Hongdou’s ’Spiritual Mountain Ten Witchcraft’;

’Courage’ is the first Martial Saint, the Sky-Reaching General Yellow King;

The core ’Abnormality’ represents two individuals, one is the Underground Master, and the other is the ’Heavenly Official·Yellow God’!"

Muttering the term "Yellow God" to himself.

"Now that even the Yellow God has personally entered the scene.

Inside Dragon Elephant Tao, the only forces capable of reaching this level are the Dragon and Tiger Temple and Manxiang Palace; the suspect list narrows even further.

But this also suggests that the enemy’s ambition is extremely grand.

Fears are that even the two Corpse Dissection Immortals, Taishang and Lady Xiang, are within their scheming."

The same sense of dread that initially overwhelmed Shen Xiaoyu slowly surfaced in Wang Yuan’s heart.

To such an extent that his hand trembled, immediately... he sent all the fully gathered intelligence to the Great Fate.

After all, the grunt work of Old Master Wang had been perfectly completed — he even staked his life on it, so what more could they want from him?

A heartless boss who demands overtime from a dead man, I’ve never heard of it in this lifetime.

Err...

Except for myself.

If the sky falls, there will be tall ones holding it up.

Looks like it’s up to you, Sister Ruan!

Moments later, led by Huang Wu, a troupe of vivacious ladies descended from the heavens.

"Xiao Yuan, we’ve collected all the pieces of your corpse!"

There, they piled a bunch of cursed, stone-cold, broken parts into the courtyard: black sticks, black spheres, black hearts... and many more.

Shen Xiaoyu’s almond eyes widened, her mouth agape in disbelief:

"My body? Master, you died too?"

Wang Yuan rose to his feet and patted her shoulder, his tone casual:

"It’s just a death, and your inexperienced reaction is making people doubt that our family runs the Yama Palace."

A trace of True Spirit detached from the incense-laden divine body and fell onto the pile of corpses.

A Hesperus and a Venus lit up respectively in the Underworld.

Having consumed the lotus seeds produced by Master Red Lotus and two others.

One of the basic powers, Changgeng Enlightenment, was greatly enhanced by aligning with the Time path of the No-Life Dao and Three Yang (Chapter 325).

——Changgeng Enlightenment, they are all Taibai!

The bright "Evening Star" that appears during twilight in the western sky is called the Hesperus.

The bright "Morning Star" that appears around dawn in the eastern sky is called Venus.

And they both share a common name — Gold Star Taibai!

They allow Wang Yuan to fix his state between dusk and dawn.

At critical moments, he can rewind his state to the last dusk or dawn.

This essentially serves as a personal save and time rewind function.

Severe injuries, incurable evil curses, depleted mana... or even being torn asunder, all can be effortlessly rectified with it.

Taboo:

[It can be used once a month.

Only from evening to dawn or from dawn to evening, not freely chosen from the intermediate time period.

At the same time, the material constituting oneself must not go missing during time rewind!]

The next moment.

As if time flowed backward.

In the blink of an eye, all the components reassembled.

An unharmed Wang Yuan stood before everyone once more.

Ever since his Enlightenment, he’s been furiously investing in life-saving skills, with "Ghost Replacement," "Fake Death," "Three Holes Dharma Body," "Changgeng Enlightenment," embodying the philosophy of ’survival of the fittest.’

Killing him for real was getting increasingly difficult, and would only become more so!

"Now we have completely stepped out of the game, no one believes I am still alive, nor do they know we have put together Zi Buxu’s puzzle.

Now, there’s just one question left — where will the rebellion start?

Let’s wait for now, Xin Ruoheng should soon tell us where the traitor’s fox tail is hidden."
