Chapter 1476: Achieving Success and Retiring (Seeking Monthly Votes at the Month's Start)

The owl god unfurled its blood-red wings, golden light and shadow illuminating heaven and earth, melting the black mud.

The consciousness gathered by the Fourth Immortal just now became light and scattered again, the vital energy of the living beginning to dissipate once more.

It realized what it was doing.

Transform into a rainbow.

It wanted to transform into a rainbow.

Ten thousand years ago, the Lotus Great Master pointed out the connection of the position fruit, deducing the so-called lineage entry into rainbow transformation.

However, refining the position fruit in the world is too difficult, and they conflict with each other; a slight mistake leads to total annihilation. Thus, different incarnations were used to oversee different position fruits, supported by different "pillars" to sustain different position fruits, and then the blood river realm was opened through dreams as a path, allowing all beings to refine the fruit and return to one.

The blood river realm was too noisy, the dead, the fallen—

At first, only Entering Zhen Xiang and the Yao Long entered, peeling off "impurities" bit by bit. Gradually, the blood river realm expanded, its capacity growing stronger, allowing even hunting tigers and war smoke to enter. Now, all intelligent beings can enter.

The mass of "impurities" was too great to be peeled off in time.

All chaos, all piled up like mountains, chaotic memories, chaotic cultivation like an endless sea rising and falling, impossible to reject.

Gradually, this chaos and disorder began to mutate, becoming active, like unwilling-to-die living things, and merging with itself, nearly stripping it of its own self.

Deeply accumulated and hard to return, better to embrace.

Such a vast sea of "chaos," how could it not be a quality of oneself? Then use it to nurture, pile up to the extreme, extreme chaos is extreme purity.

Nurture it into a position fruit, transform it into authority, then one can oversee it, resolve the dilemma, and even manifest the Fourth True Immortal in one stroke.

The two merged ever deeper, long since indistinguishable; if given another two thousand years, it would surely be good, but now the Lotus Great Master peeled away the filth, and instead it became unclear and indistinct.

The bad deed was done, yet for some reason the filth returned. "Chaos" completely separated from itself, becoming several times more viscous, having been refined for others.

As long as refinement succeeds, success can be achieved in one stroke!

"Boom!"

The main consciousness was crushed once again.

In the Fourth Immortal's black pupils, the images of Liang Qu and Zhang Longxiang were firmly imprinted, hatred just born, then overwhelmed by more chaotic emotions.

Not only thoughts, but even emotions became a luxury.

The two faces became a single faint light, branded indelibly!

Golden light and blood light raged wildly, for the first time failing to seize the opportunity; after annihilation, the remaining instinct was utterly insufficient for the Fourth Immortal to mount an effective resistance.

Black light was crushed to nearly occupying only a corner of heaven and earth, the owl god's aura not only did not fall but actually rose, merely not matching its initial frenzied surge.

Opportunity arrived, yet the moment to grasp it was lost.

The Lotus Great Master advanced in fury, Liang Qu directly performed universe position exchange, dragging him into the battlefield.

Black mud surged and writhed; in an instant, the Lotus Great Master was contaminated by the black mud, his entire person's reaction becoming swift yet dull.

One plus one, not only not greater than two, but even equal to two, completely becoming less than two!

Wind rolled the broken clouds, shattered and fragmented, a wasteland!

Su Wang, Ge Zu, Shen Daxue, Shi Wang panted heavily, blood streaming down their bodies, yet they laughed loudly to the heavens.

Wu Lingxu, Fei Taiyu's faces turned completely deathly pale, they clenched their fists tightly, Fifth Immortal, Fourth Immortal—once again, once again!

Shu Yu Ge, Qi Ju Yan surged with excitement.

We won!

Sun and moon wheels turned.

Villagers closed their doors, sects sealed mountains, towns shut gates, fear and despair became the main theme.

Three days and three nights.

After a full three days and three nights of attack, heaven and earth were completely devoid of black light.

Within ten thousand li, it became a dead land, black mud viscous, surging on the ground like a plague spreading outward. The Lotus Great Master had long vanished without trace, transformed into a pure white, illusory, intangible lotus blooming in the black mud.

Long wind howled, muscles blood-red.

Liang Qu and Zhang Longxiang gasped heavily, both somewhat exhausted, saliva sticky like glue.

Constantly defeated, constantly slaughtered, Zhang Longxiang always maintained peak food-seizing.

Even so, the Fourth Immortal still did not die!

"Pfft!"

Black mud exploded a small bubble, annular spray, with countless worm-like thread-like objects wriggling inside, yet no matter how, they could not successfully coalesce, manifesting human form.

Limit approached.

Death of the undead!

"Success." Zhang Longxiang gritted his teeth.

Liang Qu saw the old toad had no response, nodded with difficulty.

The Fourth Immortal had not been completely annihilated, but was already no different from death, fallen into the same state as the Mirage Dragon and Old Dragon Lord!

The plan succeeded!

Zhang Longxiang grinned open his mouth, earth-laughing, blew two blood bubbles, he inhaled, surveyed all directions, lifted his hand holding the Suppress Prison Blade.

The Lotus Great Master had become a lotus, even the mighty Fourth Immortal could no longer flutter—

At the edge, Wu Lingxu and Fei Taiyu suddenly realized something, locking eyes with the owl god whose wings covered the sky, hearts stirred.

"Not good!"

In an instant, the owl god flapped its wings, turning into a sheet of flying red clouds.

"Stop!!!" the old toad shocked heaven with its croak.

Boom!

Wild wind howled.

Cheek meat fluttered fiercely, like ripples on a lake surface, Wu Lingxu and Fei Taiyu stared blankly at the blade edge halted before them, their Adam's apples rolling.

Liang Qu and Zhang Longxiang simultaneously felt uneasy.

This slash will cause trouble!

"How many times have I said it, how many times, listen to the commander, listen to the commander, listen to the commander! Military law punishment, beheading, the National Preceptor will cut off your head!"

The old toad angrily stomped on the fish head, cursing.

Zhang Longxiang quickly sheathed his blade and retreated.

"What's going on?" Zhang Longxiang's temples beaded with cold sweat.

"I don't know — " Liang Qu vigilantly scanned his surroundings.

The Lotus Arhat and the Fourth Immortal had become their current forms, certainly not dead, yet likewise devoid of any resistance; logically, they should pose no threat.

Suddenly.

Liang Qu noticed a gritting-teeth face emerging from the viscous black mud.

Anger, pain, fear, madness, hatred, ecstasy — shifting, writhing, nearly every emotion and expression humans can convey were mixed and displayed on this face, as if countless human faces were superimposed, bizarre to the extreme.

Is it the Fourth Immortal?

The omen brought by the Fourth Immortal?

Though He clearly can do nothing, only able to watch helplessly — no, Liang Qu's thoughts paused, he recalled something, something the Fifth Immortal had likewise done.

Desperate dogs leap over walls!

Jade and stone burn together!

Zhang Longxiang saw that face and likewise reacted.

"National Preceptor?" Liang Qu asked the old toad.

The old toad decisively said: "Withdraw!"

"Withdraw!"

Without hesitation, Liang Qu transformed into a shooting star, piercing the heavens.

The National Preceptor is never wrong; if mistaken, it must be due to foresight they haven't yet comprehended.

Prince Su, Xin Daxian, and the Lion King approached, black mud pollution staining them, converging at the edge.

Zhang Longxiang absorbed the injuries on their bodies, and the four immediately recovered.

"Prince Huai, how do we return?"

"Original route — "

"Wait, Prince Huai!"

A shooting star flew from the sky.

Ge Zu, Xin Daxue, and the Lion King instantly focused, a shared thought arising in their minds.

This woman, what an exaggerated figure!

"Elder Qi!" Liang Qu was startled by Qi Jiayan's sudden appearance, then seeing the bewildered Wu Lingxu and Fei Taiyu in the distance, he immediately understood.

"Take me with you!" Qi Jiayan urgently pleaded.

Ge Zu's gaze swept over Liang Qu and Qi Jiayan, and he suddenly understood.

Xin Daxue and the Lion King's eyes showed shock.

"Good!" Liang Qu agreed.

Arranging Huizhen and Qi Jiayan et al. was to seize the top-grade sect-protection position fruit; now the position fruit is entirely concentrated at the Heavenfire Sect, undercover useless, and if discovered, would instead lead to sudden overthrow.

Thinking this, Liang Qu led Prince Su et al. to rush through, descending upon the Great Enlightenment Temple.

No one obstructed.

The Demon King hung high, the monks of the Great Enlightenment Temple prostrated on the ground.

The abbot sweated profusely: "River God Sect Master, formerly the River God Sect battled Nine Yi Mountain, our Great Enlightenment Temple never had — "

Before the words finished, Huizhen stepped out into the void.

The abbot's soul nearly fled, wanting to reprimand but daring not, then in a blink saw Huizhen press her palms together in salute, join the seven-person team, and swiftly depart.

The abbot stared blankly.

Look back.

The Blood River surged, a thousand mountains dead silent, ten thousand miles without clouds.

"Whoosh!"

The Yellow River waters split open, six meditating physical bodies simultaneously opened their eyes.

In an instant.

Spirit and flesh fused, a fierce aura violently surged from the six individuals.

Especially Zhang Longxiang, his entire body blood energy coiling, he shot straight up!

The layered clouds dyed blood-red.

The Wolf Lord and Li Daxian widened their eyes.

The Purple Electric Ship transmitted messages layer by layer.

The Holy Emperor, tribal leaders, and Khan Kings successively arrived.

Liang Qu awoke first.

"Your Majesty, I have not failed my mission!"
