Stop it, Taoist, Your Fight almost Ruins the DAO!
Chapter 931 - 509: Miao Zi's Karmic Retribution, The Flesh and Blood Maternal Tree, The Attacking Bo Xun, Tetrahedron, The Taoist Priest's Frenzy_2

That was the direction of a human settlement.

The creature, having fortuitously awakened its spiritual wisdom, was deeply aware of a truth: perhaps among these towering mountains and steep ridges, it might be the king of a hundred beasts, capable of tearing apart wandering souls and wild ghosts with ease, but it was those bipedal beings who were the true kings of all beasts!

Out of respect, it had always harbored awe, and even nobody knew that deep within Mount Weihu, such a transformed Mountain Lord was hiding.

Run! Run! Run!

Only after reaching the rear of the city could it survive!

Only the king of all beasts within the city could deal with such a terrifying monster, or at the very least, buy some time for its mother and child to escape.

Mi deer, wild deer, wild boars, venomous snakes... Rich in wildlife, Mount Weihu soon began to quake, and not long after the anomaly occurred, countless spirits of the mountains started to panic and bolt.

Unfortunately, they didn't have the strength of the white Mountain Lord and were quickly overtaken by the increasingly rapid carpet of blood and flesh, which then swallowed them whole.

As more and more blood and flesh of devoured creatures accumulated, the spread of the bloody carpet sped up bit by bit, and in the distance, a blood-flesh mother tree also grew taller and taller.

Melded into the trunk, stood a Black-Robed Monk, his expression serene.

Soon, on the bare branches of the blood-flesh mother tree, the first fold of tender, leaf-like flesh emerged.

One village and town after another was submerged by the giant carpet of blood, and the white Mountain Lord glanced back at the approaching tidal wave of blood and flesh, feeling its heart and liver split in terror.

Fortunately, it had been swift to react earlier, immediately putting distance between itself and the giant carpet of blood and flesh, and the absorption of the towns along the way also bought it some time, enabling its escape until now.

But as time went on, the distance it had fought for was not only failing to grow but was actually closing in.

Run! Run! Run!

Mothers grow fierce for their offspring, it glanced down at the bewildered cub it held in its jaws, half-black, half-white, remarkably unusual.

The white Mountain Lord couldn't help but recall a spirit beast it had once encountered in the mountains.

That was a large black cat with wings.

It had been beguiled by sweet words, only to find the creature vanished without a trace the next day.

Gazing at the clueless little tiger cub, a touch of warmth flickered through the white Mountain Lord's chilly eyes, as a cloud of blood mist seeped from the pores of its skin.

In an instant, the white Mountain Lord ran even faster.

Blood and flesh waves spread in all directions; it had to reach the great city!

...

...

"Your Majesty! Something strange has happened ahead! Many towns have been struck by disaster, and none have survived!"

"Great Marshal Wang, Six Peaks City, Qilian City, sent the last call for help a mere tea-time ago, after which... all contact was lost!"

"Great Marshal, we should retreat. This demon is beyond the strength of men; we can only report to His Majesty to deal with."

Upon a great city's battlements, the elderly General Wang Jian from Great Qin, armored and resolute-faced, stood upon the city wall.

Countless officials, strategists, and trusted aides were informing him of frontline secrets like snowflakes gathering.

At that moment, his eyes flashed, and a fierce slap was delivered to the face of an Iron Armor trusted aide who had followed him for over a century.

"What are you saying, Tie Xin! Are you asking me to abandon millions of people in Town Mountain City and flee for my life? In Qin, there are only generals who die in battle, none who flee!"

"Even if I had not achieved the Breakthrough Limit, I would still have to stand my ground and defend Town Mountain City today, to buy time for His Majesty in the rear and to figure out what this creature of blood and flesh really is!"

The old general stood abruptly, beginning to devise a strategy.

"Everyone, quit your prattling, or you'll face military law!"

"I'll command, and you'll note!"

"Activate the city's Great Formation, not considering wealth, only considering age, evacuate them to the rear. Before coming here, I had already made arrangements; there will be people at the other end of the formation to respond."

"First batch, children, and breastfeeding mothers."

"Second batch, the sole sons of their families."

...

"Elderly afterward, the soldiers last!"

"My fellows, the compassionate do not command armies—do not resent this old man for his harshness! If Town Mountain City falls today, I will be the vanguard for you all, leading the charge into swift battle!"

"Town Mountain Army, heed my order, while support is racing to us, our elite forces from Great Qin have all been dispatched to Corner Sea City. But all messages have been sent out, and what we must do now is to hold the line!"

"One dies only once, it may be as light as a feather or as heavy as a mountain; if so, can one die for one's country?"

Clad in a blood-red cape, the old general spoke with fervent passion from the battlements.

In an instant, countless armored warriors knelt down in surges, like waves, their hands overlapping and thumbs facing each other, pushing forward, and they chanted in unison:

"Brave old Qin, to face the nation's peril together!"

"Good! All of you are doing well! Someone, bring out the wine, and make it a large cup!"

"If the Town Mountain Army retreats today, I assure you," General Wang Jian raised his voice confidently, "that I, Wang Jian, will be the very last to retreat. With the city defense formation aiding us, the situation is not as bad as you think."

Thanks to Wang Jian's exceptional reputation within Great Qin, the order within the chaotic Town Mountain City was somewhat restored in an instant.

After downing a bowl of drink and watching the military generals and officials disperse with their commands, the elder general gazed into the distance, his tiger-like eyes flashing with intense worry.

"Damn it, how could it be such a coincidence, choosing the moment when Great Qin's elite forces are all deployed?"

"Your Majesty, State Preceptor, you must return before Town Mountain City falls!"

"Otherwise, the sacrifice of the entire Town Mountain City will have been in vain."

As General Wang Jian was deep in thought, a middle-aged military general approached the city wall with great strides; it was none other than Wang Zhong, the general highly praised by Great Qin's State Master.

"You... Zhong'er, wasn't your military assignment to defend Town Mountain City? What are you doing here?"

"My father is here, and I've swapped tasks with my colleagues to come over," the bearded general immediately responded with a smile, "We are all born and raised by our parents; what makes me and my comrades any different?"

"You... Alright then! Take your men, go set up the city defense formation, reinforce it multiple times, and resist in waves!"

"By all means, delay time!"

"Wang Zhong, good job!" General Wang Jian said gruffly.

...

...

At the horizon where the sea meets the sky.

The heavenly winds were fierce.

After restoring his injuries with Primordial Spirit Radiance, Yi Chen suddenly stretched out his hands to reveal a peculiar silver-white tetrahedron pattern forming in his palms, which then quickly vanished deep within his hands.

The location of that mark was precisely where Yi Chen had previously grasped the silver-white token hidden inside Asna's body.

Afterward, no matter how much Extreme Origin probed, he could not detect the slightest clue; everything appeared completely normal under his perceptive insight.

As if everything that had happened before was just his illusion.

For a Heavenly Position Realm master, who had stepped onto the higher echelon of the Martial Path and was nearing godhood, to suffer from illusions was simply an absurd notion.

If that was the case…

"Asna, damn your mother! You're screwing me over!"

Yi Chen's expression was as dark as water, his heart filled with reluctant acceptance. Although he did not know what this object was, he could guess with his toes that it was definitely nothing good.

Regrettably, even Yi Chengzi's astonishing wisdom was powerless in the face of such an information deficit.

"Could this be the special ability of someone at the peak of the Immortal Platform, or even a Dao Fruit Realm powerhouse?"

While Yi Chen was contemplating, a sudden change in expression came over Ying Si atop the divine blue mountain in the distance, as he swiftly approached in Yi Chen's direction.

"State Master, something terrible has happened, Great Qin is in turmoil, Town Mountain City is in danger!"

"An urgent report from General Wang Jian!"

Without sparing the time for pleasantries with Yi Chen, Ying Si immediately handed over a piece of intelligence.

"State Master, according to the report, this giant flesh tapestry bears a striking resemblance to the power of the extraterrestrial Evil Demon, Poxun. It is estimated..."

As Ying Si was explaining, the Taoist snatched the Golden Tome, his spiritual awareness swept across it, and he understood everything instantly.

"Damn your mother! What kind of son of a donkey dares to get involved with me?!"

"They clearly don't take me seriously!"

"Your Majesty, I'm going ahead!"

Ticks and debts, when one has many, one is no longer bothered. Yi Chen believed that as long as his True Technique advanced a step further, reaching a certain stage, he would undoubtedly be able to find and erase this strange tetrahedral mark.

But for now, he had to deal with the so-called Demon Buddha Poxun!

Swish!

In an instant, Yi Chen's figure disappeared into the sky.

Shadow Path lv1 (Within twelve hours, the space you travel through will leave a mysterious magnetic trail, increasing your speed by 40% when passing through the same area again)

With the existence of the Shadow Path special ability, Yi Chen's flee speed was further increased on the return trip.

In a moment, Ying Si's looked astounded as if seeing a ghost.

"State Master... Could it be that this is not the State Master's limit, and the State Master still has hidden power?"

Atop Mount Qingping, Yue Qingping's pupils shook violently, her expression filled with immense shock and fear.
