Chapter 639: Chapter 636: Response (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_1

In the midst of the Nine Netherworld Underworld River Mysterious Sand Great Array.

This Array sealed off contact from inside and outside, preventing the Flood Dragon from risking any message transmission.

Hualala!

Amidst the endless sands of the Nine Nether Underworld River, Fang Xi stood on a piece of Mysterious Dark Divine Sand that had become immeasurably large, looking down at a pitiful black Flood Dragon below.

Countless grains of Mysterious Dark Crystal Sand and Mysterious Dark Divine Sand had just rained down, heavily striking the dark Flood Dragon’s body.

Each grain of Mysterious Dark Divine Sand, specially refined by Fang Xi, now exploded with great force, knocking off many of the Flood Dragon’s scales and even breaking a section off its horn.

Seizing this opportunity, numerous toxins of Mysterious Darkness attempted to infiltrate the Flood Dragon’s body, continuously suppressing its Magic Power...

If it weren’t for the robust physique of the fifth-order Flood Dragon, that move just now might have turned an ordinary Transcendent God Cultivator directly into a pile of Flesh and Blood.

"Qing Hezi... do you truly wish to make an enemy of Dragon Controlling Sect?"

The fifth-order black Flood Dragon roared, its dragon eyes filled with resentment and venom.

"I don’t wish to do this either, but you leave me no choice! What else can I do?"

Fang Xi coldly replied, the ’Mysterious Dark Banner’ in his hand swaying, triggering another change in the Array.

Within the Array Space, the sky compressed inch by inch, transforming into countless dark, thread-like filaments.

These filaments, like a thin veil of the heavens, fluttered down lightly.

But the black Flood Dragon dared not treat them lightly, exhaling a jet-black column of light.

Within the column of light, numerous tiny runes scuttled in an unpredictable pattern.

Boom!

The jet-black column of light collided with the dark veil and was actually shredded layer by layer, continuously dissipating.

Moments later, the column of light had vanished without a trace.

Seeing this scene, the black Flood Dragon’s heart sank; it then opened its dragon mouth, and a pitch-black halberd emerged, its blade of an ancient design, engraved with several peculiar runes.

"Spirit Communicating Treasures?"

Fang Xi exclaimed in surprise, then realized that Dragon Controlling Sect was truly done for!

Even a Transcendent God Cultivator might not possess Spirit Communicating Treasures, yet this fifth-order Flood Dragon actually had one—it was utterly preposterous.

But if it were the ’Dragon Imperial Sect,’ then it would quite simply be a matter of course.

The black halberd, held in the Flood Dragon’s claw, grew continuously larger until it was over a hundred zhang long, slashing ferociously across the firmament.

Dark crescent moon-like radiance emerged, densely packed, soaring into the sky.

Puchi!

The dark thread-like filaments crisscrossed with the dark crescents, only to both vanish into nothingness at the same time.

Jiūjiū!

A Five Prison Peacock burst out from the black waters, its five-colored tail feathers sweeping!

A five-colored Mysterious Light emerged, faintly emitting a suction force, entwining with the pitch-black halberd.

Hualala!

The Nine Nether Underworld River boiled, numerous Flood Dragons made of Mysterious Dark Heavy Water appeared, like slender chains, binding the black Flood Dragon!

Feeling the Magic Power in its body slowly fading, the black Flood Dragon’s ferocious head suddenly showed a hint of ruthlessness.

It opened its mouth, and a green Jade Talisman flew out.

Then, a large part of its body exploded directly, turning into a fierce blood light!

"Self-destroying its Monster Body?"

The entangled Five Prison Peacock shouted in alarm, its five-colored Mysterious Light forming a barrier around itself as it quickly retreated.

Wave after wave of Mysterious Dark Heavy Water appeared, transforming into a pitch-black light screen.

Straight after, the terrifying mixture of fifth-order Flood Dragon Flesh and Blood and flames swept over in an instant!

Above the Mysterious Dark Abyss.

A section of the Nine Nether Underworld River suddenly burst open, and a half of the pitch-black Flood Dragon emerged, with a black halberd trailing behind and a Jade Talisman clutched tightly in its claw.

Now, looking at its half-body that only had white bones remaining, it suddenly roared, spurting Essence Blood onto the verdant Jade Talisman.

The Jade Talisman instantly exploded, transforming into a green light that enveloped the entire body of the fifth-order Flood Dragon.

It let out a satisfying roar, the Flesh and Blood over its white bones rapidly regenerating as if it had awakened the innate ability of an ’Immortal Body.’

Usually, Monster Clans capable of awakening the Innate Ability of the Immortal Body are mostly defensive or tank-type, such as Black Taisui and Profound Turtle. Flood Dragons are not among them.

That Jade Talisman, known as the ’Life Origin Talisman,’ could grant its user a recovery capability comparable to the ’Immortal Body’ and was the black Flood Dragon’s life-saving treasure.

Trapped within the fifth-level Array, it knew that if it didn’t break out in time, death was almost certain, so it immediately exercised a secret technique, not hesitating to self-destruct a significant portion of its Monster Body because it could recover!

But, in that instant, Fang Xi’s hand flashed with a purple light, and a strange Talisman appeared, a purple stream of light striking the Flood Dragon.

Its exhaled fifth-order Demon Qi and the pitch-black halberd seemed utterly unable to defend against this stream of purple light because it had no substance and could not be blocked.

Among the purple light, there were several runes like swimming dragons and snakes!

— Recurrence Secret Talisman!

The black Flood Dragon felt intense pain in its body. Upon sweeping its Divine Consciousness over, it was horrified to find its half-body still skeletal.

And that ’Life Origin Talisman’ had already disappeared without a trace.

"How can this be?"

Its vitality plummeted rapidly, its dragon eyes filled with disbelief.

"This is your fated destiny!"

Fang Xi laughed loudly, the Mysterious Dark Banner transforming into a black flagpole that directly struck the black halberd.

He rubbed his hands together, and streams of sixfold demon flames descended from the sky, enveloping the severely wounded fifth-order black Flood Dragon within.

Pfft!

A moment later, the sixfold demon flames shuddered, and a pitch-black Inner Core frantically fled, streaking tens of miles away in a twinkling.

The next instant.

Wuwa!

The wailing of a baby-like sword cry emerged, countless red threads pierced through the void, binding the soul of a Flood Dragon within the pitch-black Inner Core, and with one slash, it was severed!

...

Fang Xi stood silently atop the Mysterious Dark Abyss, beginning to clean up the battlefield.

Whether the materials from the body of a fifth-order Flood Dragon, or the Inner Core, Essence Soul... all were good stuff indeed.

What’s more... there was also a fifth-order long halberd!

"Sigh... I really didn’t want to kill you, why must you always force my hand?"

After fondling the pitch-black fifth-order Inner Core for a while, Fang Xi sighed, safely stowed it away, and then notified Tai Yi to make the Mechanism Island retreat...

He had already envisaged such a scenario, with all kinds of retreat plans in place, and everyone had been notified, whether it was Mo Yinqiu, the few disciples sheltered by the Mo Sect, or his own subordinates, and even Li Ruoling...

’That youngster is still in seclusion, condensing his Nascent Soul. As for the fact that ’Fang Yuan’ is a disciple of Qing Hezi, he hasn’t told anyone... The leasing procedures for the Dongfu are complete, it can be left alone...’

’After all, having slain a fifth-order Flood Dragon, that old Returning to Emptiness dragon might possess some secret tracking method... Perhaps I should go to the Mortal Realm to lay low for a while.’

Fang Xi’s eyes were profound, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into oblivion.

Hoping that the enemy wouldn’t discover you is foolish.

Since you’ve done it, then be prepared to face the consequences. Considering the worst-case scenario, you won’t be caught off guard...

...

The Wang family.

Pi Yun Cave.

Fang Xi still maintained the appearance of a laid-back old man, lazily lying on a rocking chair.

In the pond beside him, the Little Mysterious Turtle was underneath a lotus leaf, with the fragrance of lotus flowers spreading all around.

Before long, two streaks of Escape Light came together and landed next to Fang Xi, none other than Wang Lingdao and Wang Lingying!

"Ancestor..."

After paying their respects, their faces lit up with joy, "For some unknown reason, Qing Hezi has run away... Now the Dragon Imperial Sect has issued a warrant for his arrest, proclaiming that he has killed Qin Longzi and a fifth-order Flood Dragon... Has he grown so audacious?"

Wang Lingdao looked slightly bewildered, he had dealings with Qing Hezi and felt that he shouldn’t be that kind of person.

But in the Cultivation World, all sorts of things could happen.

Thinking of the tyranny of the Dragon Imperial Sect, he fell silent.

On the other hand, Wang Lingying was brimming with excitement, "Now that the Kong Sang Market is empty, who else but our Wang family could immediately take over and maintain the operations of the market? Ancestor... we should quickly contact the Upper Sect and seize this fatty piece of meat!"

"Hmph!"

Fang Xi responded languidly with a snort, sipping his Spiritual Tea at a leisurely pace, "Previously, this old ancestor advocated for recuperation... and many below have been saying that I’ve grown old, afraid of death..."

Wang Lingying’s face immediately showed a tint of embarrassment.

The Wang Family Ancestor had indeed rarely taken action in recent years, leading to much discussion among the clan members.

The key issue was the loss of the Kong Sang Market and the lack of initiative to forge new sources of wealth for the family.

Even he himself harbored some resentment deep down.

But at this moment, he quickly shook his head, "The ancestor is farsighted, we dare not presume to speculate..."

"Hmph..."

Fang Xi snorted coldly, mimicking the ferocity of the Wang Family Ancestor, until two Nascent Soul perfected great cultivators were sweating beads on their foreheads, then he chuckled with a ’heh heh’, "Qing Hezi’s demon skills are ruthless... If I don’t confront him head-on, it’s to avoid his sharp edge. I’ve long seen that his nature is unruly, and he won’t be contained by the Dragon Imperial Sect... Now that he’s courting his own death, it has saved our family a lot of effort. Naturally, we should take the Kong Sang Market... there’s no need for this old ancestor to make a move, the authority to handle this is completely entrusted to the two of you."

"Yes!"

Wang Lingying and Wang Lingjun left with great joy.

Fang Xi watched their departing figures, shook his head, and with hands clasped behind his back, slowly strolled back to Pi Yun Cave.

Hum!

A layer of Prohibition immediately revealed a gap, allowing him to enter.

And on the mat inside the Dongfu, a person was seated in the lotus position, none other than Qing Hezi!

Who knows what Wang Lingying and Wang Lingdao would think if they saw this scene?

Fang Xi said nothing further, after re-assimilation, he waved his hand.

A flash of Silver Light passed by, and the Heterodox incarnation disappeared on the spot.

He approached the mat, continued to sit cross-legged, and suddenly, a flash of light in his hand revealed a piece of suet-white jade, its translucency surpassing that of any white jade, the top-quality Immortal Jade!

"The Treasures of All Heavens Mirror is also an Immortal Mansion Rare Treasure... perhaps it can be activated by the Immortal Jade?"

Fang Xi had thought of this before, which is why he chose this piece of Immortal Jade.

As for taking the thousand-year Spirit Medicine to trade with the Returning to Emptiness cultivator?

Not to mention the inconvenience, the risk was even greater. Just for one or two more pieces of Immortal Jade, it really wasn’t worth it.

He steadied his expression, and a piece of the Ancient Bronze Mirror appeared in his hand, mostly intact, emanating an inexplicable aura.

At this moment, Fang Xi finally felt that this timeless Bronze Mirror had reacted to that piece of Immortal Jade.

He kept his face expressionless, bringing the piece of Immortal Jade close to the Treasures of All Heavens Mirror.

With a flash of Silver Light, the piece of Immortal Jade disappeared.

The Treasures of All Heavens Mirror thundered, and swathes of information automatically emerged in Fang Xi’s Sea of Consciousness, causing his expression to shift slightly...
