During this period, the Witchcraft Path on the Wilderness Continent has mined some minerals that Yunhua had not refined before.
After absorbing and refining these minerals, Yunhua's internal acupoints shimmered, and his vital energy increased significantly. "After absorbing half of the Panhuang Life-Giving Sword and the Shangmang Divine Spear, these ordinary minerals are becoming increasingly difficult for me to deal with."
"It worked!" Yunhua thought with some emotion.
“Next, we’ll need the other people’s magical artifacts!” Yunhua looked at the sky and said leisurely, “According to the original story, the six great masters, namely the Peacock King, the Heavenly Serpent King, the Xuantian Pavilion Master, the Tuyuan Saint, Bai Fengxian, and the Daluo Sect Master, should fight the Nine-Fire Flame Dragon here at the Bewitching Bend.”
The so-called Nine Fiery Dragons is a Taoist technique of the Supreme Dao. After Meng Shenji overcame the seven tribulations of lightning, he created nine fire dragon life forms in the manner of a creator. Each fire dragon is a brand new life, a life with flesh and blood and thoughts.
“However, the six top experts are chasing Meng Shenji…” Yunhua shook his head.
How could those six possibly hunt down Meng Shenji? After he survived the eighth tribulation of lightning, he immediately found a small world to hide in. He's just releasing nine fire dragons to distract others and draw fire for his true self.
With Meng Shenji's intelligence, how could he rashly attempt to undergo tribulation? He would definitely make sure he was fully prepared.
Maybe its true form is lying in some small world watching the show!
"Om!!"
Just then, the sky above the Enchanting Bend suddenly brightened, and several fiery clouds appeared. Among those fiery clouds, one could occasionally see a scale or claw of a giant dragon, all of them bright red, the color of lava.
Meng Shenji's Nine-Fire Dragon has finally appeared!
"You're here!" Yunhua stood up, a hint of excitement in her eyes.
This is a golden opportunity, a perfect chance to capture them all in one fell swoop. When in the world will such a golden opportunity come? A perfect opportunity for all the masters from the holy lands to gather together?
"It's so hot! What's going on? The sky seems brighter? Ah! What's that? A dragon! A fire dragon!!"
"My God, there is actually a real dragon in the world!"
"Dragon God! Dragon God!"
As the Nine-Fire Dragon appeared, countless people on the island showed expressions of shock. The legendary creature was right before their eyes, and these mortals were all awestruck.
"No, it's the Nine-Fire Flame Dragon! It's Meng Shenji's Nine-Fire Flame Dragon. Why is it here? Could there be an enemy of the Supreme Dao here?"
"Oh no, Meng Shenji's Nine Flame Dragons are here. They're definitely going to have a big battle here."
"It's dangerous. If we stay here, even the slightest aftershock could kill us. Rumor has it that after Meng Shenji was weakened during his tribulation, he was hunted down by the Peacock King and his forces all the way overseas. Is that true?"
The appearance of the Nine-Fire Dragon immediately filled countless cultivators in the vicinity with fear.
These nine fire dragons have dominated the world for countless years. It can be said that countless cultivators grew up hearing about the might of the Nine Fire Dragons. Now that they suddenly see them, how can they not be shocked?
"Nine long worms, where is Meng Shenji?" A sharp shout rang out, rolling continuously in the void.
"You nine long worms are quite loyal, even in this battle you still revealed the news about Meng Shenji!" Another voice came out, this time with a calm tone.
“Meng Shenji has already incurred the wrath of the masses, and he will surely die today.” A female voice rang out.
“Shameless words!!”
Just then, a fire dragon suddenly spoke. The voice was incredibly ancient, like an ancient relic that had lived for hundreds of millions of years, or like the celestial voice of the Great Dao that emanated before the creation of heaven and earth.
"My sect leader is too lazy to bother with you ants, so he left us nine brothers to play a game with you. Do you think you few pieces of trash are a match for our sect leader? If our sect leader were really here, would you dare to come?"
"Enough with the nonsense! Let's take down the Nine-Fire Dragon today. Once we eliminate these nine long worms, we'll have severed Meng Shenji's claws and teeth. Then Meng Shenji will be a toothless tiger!" Another voice rang out, arrogant and full of high spirits.
He felt extremely comfortable and triumphant to be "hunting down" Meng Shenji, the number one expert in the world, under the watchful eyes of everyone.
"We nine brothers were created from nothingness by the sect leader. Even if we are destroyed, we can be reborn with ease! I want to see if you guys are immortal!" The fire dragon laughed wildly in its aged voice.
"Haha, a bunch of idiots! If we really risked our lives, do you think you would still be alive to come overseas?" another fire dragon shouted.
"That's right, at worst we'll all perish together. We're immortal, but these guys might not be so lucky!" One of the fire dragons also showed an arrogant expression.
These fire dragons have followed Meng Shenji across the world for hundreds of years. They have seen everything in the world and fought against all kinds of experts, so naturally they are all extremely arrogant.
"Boom!!"
Just as the group of fire dragons roared, suddenly, a terrifying fist imprint descended from the sky.
The enormous fist imprint carried a terrifying fist intent that could freeze the world, instantly shocking everyone present and making them feel as if they had been transported to the far north, a land frozen solid.
A terrifying sense of annihilation and desolation arose in everyone's hearts, causing almost all of their thoughts to come to a standstill.
"Who goes there!?" One of the nine fire dragons suddenly looked up at the sky, then raised its blazing crimson dragon claw and attacked directly into the sky.
Chapter 391 Suppressing the Powerful
However, the moment the dragon claw collided with the icy fist imprint, the dragon claw exploded in mid-air, shattering into pieces of dragon scales, flesh, and even ruby-like bones and claws.
After shattering the dragon claw with a single blow, the icy fist imprint erupted once more, its power undiminished. The immense fist intent trembled slightly in the void—"Boom!"
From the fiery clouds in the void, a muffled thunderous roar, like a lightning explosion, resounded once more.
Then, a fierce dragon roar came from the fiery cloud in the sky, which could be heard clearly from dozens of miles away. It was the wail of the giant dragon!
However, the dragon's roar abruptly stopped, and a shower of icy rain began to fall from the sky, with icy blue ice blocks freezing the bright red dragon blood and scales as they fell.
After falling, all the ice, dragon blood, and dragon scales disappeared.
The Nine-Fire Dragon was originally formed by condensing flames using Taoist techniques. Its blood and scales were all formed from fire energy. After everything was frozen, this trace of fire energy was also extinguished by the freezing fist intent.
With just a single fist imprint, one of the Nine Fire Dragons, powerful enough to stop a child from crying, was completely destroyed, causing everyone in the world to tremble.
Even under the annihilating fist intent of this icy world, this fire dragon could not even be resurrected. If Meng Shenji wanted to restore the power of the Nine Fire Dragon, he could only forge one again.
"Who is it? They killed the Nine-Fire Dragon with a single punch!" The Peacock King was shocked and immediately looked up at the sky.
"So fierce, such terrifying fist intent! It actually killed a Nine-Fire Dragon with a single punch." The others also looked up at the sky in shock.
Yunhua was seen walking down from the sky step by step.
With each step he took, a force seemed to arise in the void, holding him back as if there were an invisible staircase.
Every monk who witnessed this scene felt their heart pound.
That energy, that fighting spirit...
A human immortal, without a doubt, this is a human immortal, an incredibly terrifying human immortal.
Most importantly, this person actually traversed the void using the power of his physical body—it's terrifying!!
Even the monk Yinyue, who was known as the "Buddha Fighter" at the Great Zen Temple back then, couldn't achieve such a level of cultivation, despite his status as a human immortal.
When facing a human immortal who can travel through the void in his physical body, even the most skilled Taoist practitioners lose their greatest reliance.
The reason why Taoist masters dare to provoke immortals is because they understand that immortals cannot fly. As long as they keep a certain distance, immortals are not a threat at all.
But the person before us has broken this pattern.
"A physical body roaming the heavens and earth, this kind of immortal, this kind of immortal... Could it be that this generation did not produce a Yang God, but instead produced a powerful being who shattered the vacuum?" The Peacock King looked at the scene before him in disbelief.
Shatter the vacuum!!
At that moment, everyone's faces turned even uglier, never expecting to encounter such an invincible being here.
Even the Nine-Fire Dragon showed a hint of fear, because this person was truly capable of annihilating them; that kind of fist intent was definitely their nemesis.
Once hit, they would truly die. Even if Meng Shenji intervened, he would only recreate a few more fire dragons, not the original ones.
These fire dragons have lived for hundreds of years and have no desire to die!
"I heard that you can be resurrected after you die, but I don't know if you can really survive after being hit by my fist intent!" Yun Hua's words terrified the remaining fire dragons even more.
"Not good, form a formation!!" the leading fire dragon suddenly roared.
In an instant, the remaining eight fire dragons linked head to tail, forming a massive fire dragon formation.
The fierce attack descended. This move was the Nine-Fire Dragon's trump card, and countless powerful figures in the world had perished under its power.
"A mere eight long worms, do you really think you can do anything to me? You might as well go with that long worm from before!" Yun Hua said leisurely, and at the same time, a fist intent that could freeze the world instantly froze the entire sea area and spacetime within a radius of hundreds of miles.
"That fist intent again!!" In an instant, everyone was filled with shock and anger, because this fist intent had frozen the world, leaving no way for anyone to escape.
While Meng Shenji's remaining eight fire dragons had nowhere to escape, the other cultivators who came to "hunt down" Meng Shenji were also doomed to perish.
"Damn it, is this immortal trying to wipe us all out as well?!" The Xuan Tian Pavilion Master's face was rather grim. Judging from the range of the opponent's fist intent, it didn't seem like he was dealing with the Nine Fire Dragons alone, but rather that he was including them in the attack.
"What's there to be afraid of? He's just a mere Immortal. After passing through another tribulation, we are no longer the same people who faced Yin Yue back then."
"If this immortal dares to attack us, we'll just wipe him out!" The Peacock King was shocked, but a hint of anger also surfaced in his heart.
“That’s right, just as it should be!” The voice of the Heavenly Serpent King also rang out. Although she was a woman, she had a heroic and imposing aura.
After passing through another tribulation of lightning, these people experienced the ascension of their souls and Taoist arts, and were naturally filled with boundless confidence, which is why they dared to "hunt down" Meng Shenji.
"Annihilation Fist Intent, Break!"
Yun Hua glanced around and threw a punch directly at the sky.
In an instant, the fist intent encompassed all directions, splitting into eight fist imprints in the void, which struck the eight fire dragons in the sky. At the same time, each of the eight fire dragons emitted a "fire pill," which collided with the fist imprints.
"Click!", "Click!", "Click!"...
However, the moment the fire pill and the fist imprint touched, the overwhelming divine power of the flames was frozen by the incomparably powerful annihilation fist intent, and even the central array eye of the eight fire dragons was frozen.
In an instant, as if heaven and earth had been destroyed, accompanied by a mournful dragon roar, all eight fire dragons were frozen in mid-air. Then the ice dissipated, and all the fire dragons vanished into thin air. The shattered ice fragments spun into a blanket of icy blue snow across the entire island.
The eight fire dragons, forming a battle array, were instantly shattered by Yunhua!
The fire dragon, which had dominated the world for hundreds of years, has become a thing of the past!
"Next it's your turn!" Yunhua turned to look at the group of people not far away.
These people were none other than Peacock King Xingxuan, Heavenly Serpent King Xingmou, Xuan Tian Pavilion Master Nalan Anhuang, Jingyuan Temple Grand Elder Tuyuan Saint, Zhen Gang Sect Master Bai Fengxian, and Daluo Sect Master Zhao Feier, who were "chasing" Meng Shenji.
Meanwhile, on the other side, just as the first fire dragon was annihilated...
In a certain small world, beside the Dragon Transformation Pool.
A figure sat quietly cross-legged beside the Dragon Transformation Pool. This person wore a tall crown and a large robe, his clothes fluttering and merging into the void, as if the entire void was his clothes.
The man's hair was slightly gray, giving him a sense of age and weariness. His expression was also very gentle, possessing a unique and inexplicable warmth, as if he were a close friend to everyone.
Chapter 392 Light and Darkness Create the World
Especially his eyes, which seemed to contain all the burning emotions in the world. They were not like the eyes of a Taoist practitioner, but the eyes of a person with intense emotions, as if they were the eyes of a fusion of all human emotions.
This person is none other than Meng Shenji, the sect leader of the Supreme Dao. His current eyes further demonstrate that he has reached an extremely terrifying realm of the Supreme Dao's techniques—the Dao is ruthless yet compassionate!
"kindness!?"
At that moment, a look of astonishment appeared in Meng Shenji's eyes. All the burning emotions vanished without a trace in an instant, and his whole person became extremely cold. His eyes were even colder, as if no emotion in the world could remain in his heart.
"Who is it? Who dares to kill my Nine-Fire Dragon?"
Meng Shenji's voice was cold and ruthless; the previous scene of intense emotion seemed entirely like an illusion. His terrifyingly cold voice echoed throughout the entire Lesser Thousand Worlds.
Although he was furious, Meng Shenji was also very clear that the Nine-Fire Dragon was created out of thin air by him at the level of a creator. Even if it was killed, it would return to the Dragon Transformation Pool and be resurrected.
The being capable of erasing the Nine-Fire Dragon's life mark must be at least as strong as him, and perhaps even stronger!
“There is absolutely no one in the Great Thousand World with power comparable to mine. Could it be that someone from the Outer Heavens has entered the Great Thousand World?” Meng Shenji also had some guesses and doubts in his heart.
"Crack!"
Just as Meng Shenji was speculating, the Dragon Transformation Pool before him suddenly cracked open, with numerous fissures spreading across its entire surface. Then, with a loud "bang," the entire Dragon Transformation Pool exploded, transforming into the most magnificent and boundless flames, which surged violently throughout the entire small world.
Meng Shenji's heart stirred slightly, and a mysterious light appeared on his body.
The moment this light appeared, it became eternal, directly blocking all the countless flames outside.
"All nine fire dragons have been killed!!" Meng Shenji's face grew even colder.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in a valley.
"We've captured everyone in one fell swoop! What a huge haul!" Yun Hua casually waved his hand, throwing countless magical treasures onto the ground.
Yun Hua single-handedly killed the Nine Flaming Dragons, so how could the others possibly escape?
After defeating the Nine Flame Dragons, Yun Hua also captured Peacock King Xingxuan, Heavenly Serpent King Xingmou, Xuan Tian Pavilion Master Nalan Anhuang, Jingyuan Temple Grand Elder Tu Yuan Saint, Zhen Gang Sect Master Bai Fengxian, and Daluo Sect Master Zhao Feier.
With a single punch, he suppressed everyone, freezing them completely, leaving them no way to escape.
With Yunhua's combat power derived from flesh and blood, he is comparable to a cultivator who has undergone nine tribulations of lightning. He can defeat those who have undergone three or four tribulations of lightning in one move, and they cannot even escape.
After suppressing them, the scriptures and magical treasures of the Five Elements Sect, Xuantian Pavilion, Jingyuan Temple, Zhen Gang Sect, and Daluo Sect all fell into Yunhua's hands.
"The Five Elements Path, the Essence Temple, the True Gang Sect, and the Great Luo Sect are all fine, but the Xuan Tian Pavilion's 'Xuan Tian Dark Record' truly lives up to its reputation as a Yang Shen Xuan method, its meaning being exactly the opposite of the 'Past Amitabha Sutra' of the Great Zen Temple," Yun Hua praised.
Yunhua didn't care much about the other sects' cultivation methods, because those were basically just the methods passed down by ordinary tribulation cultivators.
