Stop it, Taoist, Your Fight almost Ruins the DAO!

"But is that whelp really investigating me because someone issued a task for my whereabouts, or is it just this whelp's doing? This whelp, he couldn't possibly think I'm a human demon, could he..."

Just at that moment, a crisp feminine voice broke Yi Chen's train of thought.

Shui Lingyue, hugging Yi Chen's neck, suddenly spoke, "Yi Taoist, the thing you wanted to tell me last night when you came in was that, if you're just a little careful, you can take me to escape, right?"

At this thought, Shui Lingyue's pretty face once again became vibrantly flushed.

Yi Chen didn't answer; he simply planted a mua on her cheek and said in a gentle voice, "The moonlight tonight is truly beautiful."

Fledglings at such times would foolishly try to explain, but a true master speaks through actions.

Explaining would lead to an endless vortex of inquiries, entangling one in an awkward atmosphere. To divert attention and aim at another target is simply the template answer.

Only those with world-shaking intelligence could truly grasp the subtleties involved.

A short time later, within a secluded and quiet nameless cave, Yi Chen put down Abbess Shuiyue, whose face was flushed.

"This place is secluded; Abbess, wait here for me, I'll be back shortly," Yi Chen said.

"Miao Zi, come out to your daddy, you'll be here to keep the Abbess company~"

Yi Chen was still somewhat worried, so with a pat on his spirit beast pouch, he let out his large-sized pet.

He couldn't help wanting to go back to have a look.

If his guess was correct and the Carefree King truly managed to swallow up many experts from Zhēnān Sì, then why did he painstakingly lure them to his long-claimed stronghold, Panlong Peak?

If he could unleash his tactics to suppress Fu Canglong and his people at Panlong Peak, why wouldn't he just reveal his final trump card, instead of trying to create a bloody battlefield there wave after wave?

Clearly, the Carefree King's hidden cards weren't big enough yet.

With this in mind, Yi Chen was itching all over to not go back and check the battle situation; after all, with the Abbess well-placed, he had no weakness by his side.

If he could pick up a bargain and blast this human demon, comparable to a True Monarch, into Gold Coins, how worth it would that be in Deep Red Points.

And Fu Canglong, who had been shouldering for him for so long, would owe him a big favor.

Low risk, high reward, at worst he could just take a peek and flee.

He must do it.

In an instant, Yi Chen's heart was set.

"My savior, be careful and play it safe, do not take risks," Abbess Shuiyue suddenly said with a smile, her bright smile lighting up the whole cave; she

stepped forward and hugged Yi Chen firmly with her lotus arms before letting go, not asking anything more.

A dumbfounded Miao Zi came out and saw this scene, her cat's eyes wide as copper bells, understanding all too well.

The keen-nosed Miao Zi picked up her father's scent on this beautiful cultivator and, with a roll of her eyes and a meow, she trotted over to Abbess Shuiyue's side and crouched down.

Yi Chen waved his hand, and with a flash, he disappeared from the cave.

...

...

Around Panlong Peak.

At that time, a massive blood-colored barrier encompassed all of Panlong Peak and several surrounding mountains.

The ground was littered with limbs and body parts, covered in a thick layer of coagulated blood, the stench of blood permeating the entire sky.

"Fu Canglong, you're truly a moron!"

"Why do you insist on fighting me to the death for a bunch of failures?"

"How can you achieve great things like this!"

"The Blood Sea Asura Absolute Heaven Formation bestowed upon me by my lord isn't pleasant, is it!"

"If you don't leave now you'll stay here forever!"

The entire body crystallized into amethyst, the Carefree King sent Fu Canglong flying with a purple light shadow. However, Fu Canglong dared not stop for even a moment; despite spilling blood across the sky, he rushed forward immediately once again.

For the sake of his still living thirty-two subordinates, he had no choice; he could flee himself, but if he did, all of his subordinates he had brought would be sacrificed by the Carefree King.

How could he have anticipated that the Carefree King hid his capabilities so deeply? After leading his men to slay all the white bone demons, giant serpents, the twin-headed serpent beneath the Carefree King, and the peopled of Wuyou Mansion at Panlong Peak, he thought victory was within his grasp.

But he hadn't realized all of it was within the Carefree King's calculations.

The skeletons scattered by the bone demon were components of the Blood Sea Asura Sky-Defying Formation, and the hundreds of vigorous gigantic snakes along with the double-headed demonic serpents were essential materials for activating the formation.

The souls and bodies of the many cultivators who died in this slaughterhouse only added to the power of the formation by several folds.

The Carefree King's sinister intentions and deep schemes were so shocking and infuriating.

Under his guidance, step by step, he had actually managed to successfully activate the bizarre blood-colored formation above.

This formation was easy to enter but difficult to leave, prohibiting heaven and earth, and possessed many profound mysteries, extremely terrifying.

"World-Shaking Dragon Fist·Soaring Azure Dragon!"

A roar erupted, and a golden dragon-shaped fist energy tens of meters long flew out from Fu Canglong's fist, lifelike, as if it were real.

"Using that move again, Fu Canglong, you've run out of tricks."

"Bone Evil Dragon! Emerge!"

The skeletons of the bone demons scattered on the ground converged into a terrifying evil dragon nearly a hundred meters long under the guidance of the Carefree King's mana, and it fiercely collided with Fu Canglong's golden dragon-shaped qi energy.

Two dazzling radiance met in the air, exploded, and dissipated.

"Fu Canglong, why be so obstinate!"

"If you don't leave now, you'll truly be unable to escape!"

After receiving this attack, the Carefree King couldn't help but continuously retreat, his body crystallized into amethyst suddenly showing a crack.

What he had not anticipated was that Fu Canglong's foundation was so profound; having just become a True Monarch, he possessed such strength. Therefore, once the formation was completed, he shifted his goal from keeping all personnel of the Peacekeeping Department to keeping everyone except Fu Canglong.

His plans changed with the situation, acting according to the circumstances. In his mind, within the Blood Sea Asura Sky-Defying Formation, Fu Canglong, knowing he was no match, would definitely retreat. By that time, after performing a blood sacrifice of all the remaining masters, he could still satisfy the demands of the Purple Command to advance.

However, he had misjudged Fu Canglong's will. To his surprise, the latter fought to the death without retreating, determined to protect his remaining subordinates.

"Carefree King, in a whore's eyes, everyone is for sale; it's just a matter of price."

"You simply don't understand me. Since this matter began because of me, how could I just cling to life ignobly."

"Take my final move!"

Fu Canglong spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his will even sharper. He gathered his last vestiges of mana with difficulty and spoke with effort: "Golden! Dragon! Calamity!"

In his sea of consciousness, illusory dao patterns flickered, at one point becoming so dim they were barely noticeable. A golden dragon-shaped phantom emerged from the top of his head, rushing at the Carefree King with ferocious roars.

The Carefree King's face changed drastically: "Blood Sea aid me, Purple Ultimate Demonic Heart Break!"

The blood-colored canopy overhead poured down like an inverted river of the heavens, converging on the Carefree King's hand. His crystallized amethyst claw suddenly expanded, meeting Fu Canglong's final move with a surge of blood light.

Two forces of overwhelming might met in the sky, creating rings of astonishing ripples in the air.

After a stalemate of a dozen seconds, it was the Carefree King, bolstered by the Blood Sea, who proved to be the stronger.

"Heaven's will!" Fu Canglong spat out another mouthful of life-threatening blood, wearily sitting down cross-legged. He was now at the end of his strength, no longer capable of continuing the fight, let alone breaking the formation and escaping.

"My lord!" Lie Jiuxiao led the remaining people, their eyes showing a look of despair. At this moment, they were all injured and their vitality was fading.

After receiving this attack, the Carefree King's crystallized amethyst armor suddenly cracked open with several more fissures, but he did not care in the slightest. Instead, he looked up to the sky and began laughing madly: "Fu Canglong, I may be a whore, but you, the fool, have just added another sacrifice of a True Dragon Monarch for my lord."

"Should I thank you for your foolishness?"

With purple cyclones swirling around him, the Carefree King spread his crystallized hands and laughed wildly to the heavens: "Praise my lord!"

"Glory to the Great Dark Supreme Emperor Asna of the Four Extremes and the heavens above!"

"Glory to…"

Just then, a resounding voice suddenly pierced through from outside the formation, drawing nearer in a frenzy, and reached the outside of the blood-colored formation before breaking through.

"Countless beings suffer in peril and insecurity!"

"Hidden Dragon wishes to spread its wings amidst the clouds!"

"A Daoist dares to stand against heaven!"

"Within the universe!"

"World-Shaking Pure Yang!"

The chanting stopped, and the figure halted, as a majestic man with a silver halberd suddenly appeared opposite the Carefree King.

"Are you, Yi Chengzi?" The Carefree King's face changed dramatically, as if he had seen a ghost.

"Wrong, I am."

"World-Shaking Pure Yang, Yi Chengzi!" Yi Chen beamed with a smile, his eyes twinkling with dangerous light, politely correcting the Carefree King's words.
