Chapter 318: Blood Battle of the Asuras

"Husband, I don't understand why that person's sect is targeting me."

"Lying in Ao Yifan's embrace, Luo Cha Nu fed an immortal fruit to his lips."

"He took a bite of the immortal fruit, feeling the warmth transmitted from his fingertips, and Luo Cha Nu's cheeks flushed with a hint of shyness."

"At this moment, Luo Cha Nu's heart was sweet."

"She never imagined that Ao Yifan would allow her to call him husband."

"This way, her child would also have a legitimate status."

"\"Luo Cha, our child possesses great fortune; I fear that the Taiqing Saint of that sect has set his sights on our Hong Er. \""

"Ao Yifan said."

"Indeed, Hong Hai Er possesses great fortune; one could say that, in the entire Journey to the West calamity, Hong Hai Er is also among the few who brought misfortune upon Sun Wukong."

"Moreover, Hong Hai Er later became a servant of Guanyin Bodhisattva."

"Without such great fortune, such treatment would be absolutely impossible."

"\"The Taiqing Saint has set his sights on our Hong Er? \""

"Hearing Ao Yifan's words, Luo Cha Nu said with a tense expression."

"She knew all too well what a saint signifies."

"After all, when Hou Tu Niangniang attained sainthood, she had once observed from afar."

"A saint's aura is far beyond what an ordinary cultivator can bear."

"And Hou Tu Niangniang had only just entered the saint realm; in terms of strength, she cannot compare to that Taiqing Saint."

"After all, as the foremost of the Three Pure Ones, the Taiqing Saint is rumored to be the strongest among the Six Saints."

"If the other party harbors any designs on Hong Er, even Hou Tu Niangniang would likely be unable to stop them."

"Seeing Luo Cha Nu's tension, Ao Yifan gently patted her hand and comforted her: \"Don't worry, with me everything will be fine; I won't let anything happen to you and your child. \""

"\"Yes, husband, I believe you! \""

"Luo Cha Nu nodded, then buried her head deeply into Ao Yifan's chest."

"With one arm around Luo Cha Nu, Ao Yifan lightly unfolded his right hand, and a Time City slowly emerged."

"Within the Time City, a drop of blood floated."

"\"How about it, Minghe Laozi—does my proposal meet your approval? \""

"Ao Yifan's voice transmitted into the Time City."

"Hearing Ao Yifan's voice, the drop of blood flickered slightly and soon transformed into a human face."

"If any member of the Asura Clan saw this face, they would instantly recognize it as their clan's venerated ancestor, Minghe Laozi!"

"It turns out that, facing the Asura Clan's sacrifices, Minghe Laozi had not responded—not because he had abandoned the Asura Clan, but because he simply could not respond."

"\"Kid, I never expected Hou Tu to join forces with someone, and moreover, you possess the power of temporal law; old ancestor I concede—your proposal, old ancestor I accept! \""

"Minghe Laozi said somewhat resignedly."

"\"A very wise choice! \""

"Ao Yifan looked at Minghe Laozi, smiling as he said: \"In fact, you should have long realized that the Asura Clan you created is flawed; that is why you have never been able to attain sainthood. My suggestion is, in fact, your only choice—if you win, you can in one fell swoop step into the Sacred Realm you have long dreamed of; if you lose, you merely fall in the pursuit of the Dao, which is no great loss, right? \""

"\"Hehe, kid, you see things clearly! \""

"Minghe Laozi said: \"I never expected that in this world there would appear someone like you; you are not wrong. Since so many regard me as nourishment for their advancement, why not stake everything in a desperate gamble? \""

"\"Good! \""

"Ao Yifan smiled, then clenched his right hand, and the Time City was retracted once more."

"This matter is clearly a scheme plotted under the eyes of several saints; he would naturally not reveal his final trump card until the last moment."

"……"

"\"Asura King, I do not wish to create more killing; as long as you hand over your clan's princess, this crisis can be resolved! \""

"The Xuan Du Grand Master's surroundings saw a purple-gold Eight Trigrams Furnace slowly turning, absorbing all attacking forces."

"Indeed, as he said, up to now he has never dealt a heavy blow."

"Otherwise, given the methods of the opposing side's Three Teachings Senior Brother, these Asura Clan warriors would have already suffered heavy losses."

"By contrast, the other side's Wen Dao Ren is not so polite."

"Only saw Wen Dao Ren's blood-red pouch atop his head open, as one Asura Clan warrior after another was swallowed by its terrifying suction, their life or death unknown."

"Thinking of Wen Dao Ren's infamous reputation as a great menace of the three realms, the Asura King's face looked grim; in his view, having his clan's warriors fall into Wen Dao Ren's hands would likely be more ominous than auspicious."

"\"Old ancestor, could it be that you have truly abandoned our clan? \""

"The Asura King said sorrowfully."

"And beside him, his wife, the Asura Clan's queen, who is also the clan's high priestess, was leading the clan's most beautiful priestesses in prayer to Minghe Laozi."

"After all, in the Asura Clan's consciousness, within the Netherworld Blood Sea, Minghe Laozi is an invincible existence."

"But the Asura Clan never imagined that the one truly scheming against him this time were those few saints!"

"\"Damn it! \""

"The Asura King roared, shouting loudly: \"Young men of the clan, the time has come for you to sacrifice your lives for our clan! \""

"\"King! \""

"Beside them, the beautiful Asura Queen, who was in the midst of sacrificing and praying, showed a flash of fear on her face."

"\"Queen, take good care of Luo Cha and our clan's holy son for me! \""

"Having thwarted the Asura Queen's persuasion, the Asura King's eyes were firm."

"\"Sacrifice! \""

"In the next instant, accompanied by a sound falling down, a shocking scene appeared before everyone."

"Only saw Asura Clan warriors one after another raising their battle blades and stabbing toward their own hearts."

"Still? Xiuluo Wang, why go to such lengths?"

At this moment, the ever-expressionless Grand Dharma Master of the Mysterious Capital finally changed countenance.

Only seeing his right index finger point, a Supreme Ultimate Diagram instantly appeared above Xiuluo Wang's head.

Feeling the terrifying pressure of the Supreme Ultimate Diagram above his head, Xiuluo Wang's face showed a hint of mad fighting spirit.

"My Demon clan's warriors have only ever died in battle, never surrendered; today I will use my clan's blood to tell all beings of the three realms that my Demon clan swears never to be slaves!"

Speaking, Xiuluo Wang raised both hands above his head.

At the same time, the fresh blood of countless Demon clan warriors converged upon him, and his body began to swell rapidly, soon transforming into a thousand zhang giant.

The Supreme Ultimate Diagram atop his head was propped up by Xiuluo Wang to the point of death; terrifying blood-colored runes, like ferocious long snakes, wandered all over his body, emitting waves of powerful aura.

"Get out of my way!"

Accompanied by a roar, Xiuluo Wang fiercely punched the Supreme Ultimate Diagram above his head.

On the other side, Grand Dharma Master of the Mysterious Capital slightly furrowed his brows, pointed a finger, and the Supreme Ultimate Diagram immediately flew back.

Without the suppression of the Supreme Ultimate Diagram, Xiuluo Wang appeared even more ferocious.

Only seeing between his hands, countless blood-colored runes condensed, forming a blood blade a hundred zhang long.

"Die!"
