Chapter 596: General Nanyang Beheads the Dragon

~17 min read 3,203 words

Roar!

The tranquility between the water and land of Yu Nanhong was suddenly torn apart by a shrill dragon roar.

Like the sound of gold and stone, deafening.

A huge shadow swept across the sky, as if clouds were blotting out the sun, and scarlet torrential rain fell into the human world, staining the water surface and the earth.

The thick scent of blood drifted out, making countless living beings raise their heads in shock.

Whether it was cultivators or demons, or mortals and wild beasts, they all saw that massive thing that was as continuous as a mountain range and couldn't see the end at a glance.

A great demon that hid in the depths of Yu Nanhong and presided over the Dragon Palace was actually emitting bursts of wailing at this moment!

Anyone with eyes could see that this peerless fierce object was desperately trying to return to the water, but its struggling body was always dragged back to the sky by an invisible giant force.

What kind of terrifying existence could forcibly make such a great demon unable to break free?

Finally, a figure that leaped up abruptly attracted everyone's attention.

Only to see the young man holding a knife in one hand, living on the dragon body that was as massive as a mountain range, his left arm suddenly probing out, his long fingers tightly clenching a dragon whisker, and the next moment, he actually dragged this "mountain range" up fiercely!

Such a shocking scene made everyone stunned and frozen in place.

The next moment, their vision turned red.

*Poof! *

The Gold-Veined Profound Dao fiercely pierced into the Southern Dragon King's scales, breaking its flesh and skin, stirring up bursts of blood waves.

Under the terrifying body size of this old dragon, this long knife was not much different from a toothpick.

However, with the young man's arm swing, the originally insignificant wound on the dragon body expanded a hundred times over in an instant.

Dazzling profound gold light surged out, as if to tear this old dragon apart completely!

One knife after another!

Blood waves soaked the young man's clothes and hair, making his originally fair face blood-red, with only those gray eyes remaining calm.

"Roar!"

There was only one such terrifying dragon demon in the entire Yu Nanhong. It was just that the other party's miserable appearance made it very hard for people to believe...

That it would be the master of the entire Yu Nanhong, the supreme powerhouse of this land and water, that famous Dragon King!

So, what was this Dragon King afraid of?

As the Southern Dragon King rolled and fled in the sky of the entire Yu Nanhong land and water, someone finally recognized the young man's identity.

"Sect Master Shen?!"

The cultivators of the four vassal forces of the General Nanyang Sect all widened their eyes.

They knew that the Seven Sects of Yu Nanhong and the Dragon Palace had long been at odds.

But they didn't expect that it had already reached the level of a head-on battle with the Dragon King.

Such a major event that could affect the situation of the entire Yu Nanhong actually happened before everyone's eyes so abruptly and without any warning.

And what was even more unbelievable was that for such a serious matter, the Seven Sects of Yu Nanhong actually only had Sect Master Shen acting alone.

In a one-on-one situation, he could actually suppress the Southern Dragon King throughout!

"Hoo!"

In Zhang Xuan Yue City, under his father's protection, Yin Yin Yajun stared at the sky in a daze, her breathing growing increasingly quick.

Even though she felt that Sect Master Shen was omnipotent, after seeing this scene, she still fell into a daze as if struck by lightning.

The Dragon King, who could cause turmoil in Yu Nanhong with just one sentence, would also fall into such a miserable appearance in front of Sect Master Shen.

But why was there only one person?

"Father, how could it be like this?"

"..."

Facing his daughter's doubtful gaze, City Lord Yin gave a bitter laugh.

Although his realm was low, he still had an identity here, and he knew the Seven Sects quite well.

Even if the Seven Sects did have the intention to target Sect Master Shen before, after the Seven Sons Assembly, anyone with a brain knew how important Sect Master Shen was.

Not to mention such a major event as beheading the Southern Dragon King, how could it be child's play?

With such a big commotion, it was naturally impossible to escape the ears and eyes of the Seven Sons of Yu Nanhong.

Many disciples rushed out of the treasure land, listening to the shrill dragon roar, feeling somewhat like a dream.

Before the remaining three Sect Masters could react, Ji Ji Jingxi had already darted out, rushing toward the direction where the dragon roar sounded.

Her face was solemn as never before, and a hint of fear vaguely surged in her clear eyes.

Three people went out, but now only one was left.

And although the Southern Dragon King looked miserable, its vitality was actually still very vigorous!

Although she didn't know what accident had happened to make things turn out like this.

But Ji Ji Jingxi could almost guess what would happen next.

Her lips trembled:

"Shen Yi, don't be impulsive..."

"Can you kill this King? Can you?!"

The Southern Dragon King's mind was already somewhat blurred, but it still felt that the suppression force on its body was weakening.

The Divine Mountain Suppressing the Clear Sky was a well-deserved Immortal method.

But after all, it was just suppressing a place, and even heavenly spiritual energy had times when it was thin, not inexhaustible.

"Hoo."

Shen Yi stood with his head lowered on the forehead of this long dragon, his wet hair sticking to his side face. He carried the long knife obliquely, his straight body having long since turned into a bloody person.

He exhaled a turbid breath.

He didn't respond to the Southern Dragon King's mockery, just watching the other party fall into the water calmly.

This Dragon King, if nothing else, just in terms of demon body, was absolutely the most terrifying one

"Close your eyes, keep quiet, don't look at what you shouldn't, and don't ask what you shouldn't."

These auras broke into the water domain of Xihong's jurisdiction, and then used an absolutely non-negotiable tone to issue orders to the master of this place.

This kind of thing, placed on anyone, was impossible to endure.

However, the Western Dragon King only pondered for a moment, then really withdrew his gaze, then sat back on the throne, completely pretending not to see it.

Being able to dispatch these two forces together, whose imperial decree they were serving, could be figured out without using one's brain.

Even if it was curious, it didn't dare to ask a single word.

At the same time.

In another part of Xihong's horizon, amidst the rolling clouds and mist, a massive black long shadow rolled indefinitely, the sharp dragon claws occasionally revealed, as if possessing the power to tear this sky apart.

And beside this black shadow, three figures wearing luxurious embroidered robes stood with their hands behind their backs.

The two people in front were older. Although there was no majestic aura exposed, they were both filled with an indescribable nobility. It was one of them who had warned the Western Dragon Palace earlier.

And behind them to the side was a young man with a straight figure and a heroic face. Although he wore the same style of luxurious clothing, he had a few more sharp edges.

"Is this Sect Master Xue's first time leaving Northern Hong? How does it feel?"

Hearing this, the young man swept his gaze over the water and land below, saying indifferently: "Just for novelty, nothing interesting."

The two old men laughed silently. This child opened four cities, cultivated Immortal methods, and even took over a treasure land, becoming famous in the Four Hongs. It was quite in the style of their youth, and it was normal for him to be a bit arrogant, not to mention that what the other party said was the truth.

Except for the north, Eastern Hong was still worth looking at. As for the remaining two... they were truly places forgotten by the Immortals, making people unable to raise any interest.

"This time forget it, we have errands to run. After we take the Merit Immortal back to Northern Hong, we will definitely come over again to investigate the whereabouts of Sect Master Situ. At that time, Sect Master Xue can take a closer look; maybe you can find some fun."

There wasn't much worry in their words.

Sect Master Situ must have encountered some trouble, but it would never endanger his life. After all, even if he was one of the Sect Masters of the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect whose foundation wasn't deep, his strength of being invincible in the Earth Realm was real.

Even if he encountered a Heavenly Realm powerhouse, relying on the means of the Boundless Dao Emperor Palace, he would at least be safe.

Those who really had this strength didn't have the guts. The signboard of the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect was like a great mountain, enough to break the spines of these wild, barbaric cultivators.

Yu Nanhong, General Nanyang Treasure Land.

After returning to the sect, Shen Yi came to the main hall on the mountain peak.

Looking at the three silent hall master suppression stones before him.

Among them, Ke Ke Shisan was already so excited that his shoulders were trembling. He knew the reason for his master's departure this time, and the heavenly phenomenon that had previously affected the entire Yu Nanhong could also be perceived within the General Nanyang Treasure Land.

After Old Seven Ke, he finally had the chance to see his own clansmen.

And it was a heavyweight existence like the Crown Prince.

He simply couldn't imagine what level he would be able to touch after devouring the Crown Prince and Qi Qi Zhaoyi; perhaps he would have the chance to become a great demon comparable to his grandfather!

Shen Yi didn't keep him waiting long.

He directly took out two dragon corpses, turning them into a river of blood and pouring them into Ke Ke Shisan's body.

In this situation, every second counted. With every bit of improvement, the success rate of beheading the Southern Dragon King would be a bit higher.

It could be said that if something went wrong this time, all the things he had done since coming out of the General Nanyang Treasure Land would be in vain and meaningless.

"Strive for me."

Shen Yi re-experienced the tension he hadn't felt for a long time.

After all, the gap between the mid-Heavenly Realm and the late stage was too great, and since Qi Qi Zhaoyi was a Jade-Horned Silver Dragon, its bloodline would also be lost quite a bit. Even if the two were added together, it might not necessarily help Ke Ke Shisan cross this threshold.

Perhaps it was because these two dragon demons were both outstanding in the same realm and were both eldest sons, inheriting the purest bloodline.

The process was much smoother than Shen Yi had imagined.

Just as the river of blood poured in, Ke Ke Shisan's body trembled uncontrollably, the golden scales faded, revealing the essence of the stone body. As the stone skin peeled off, his appearance became less and less like a Yellow Fiend Poison Dragon, but closer to the Five-Clawed True Dragon in Shen Yi's understanding.

That rich bloodline power emitted an alluring fragrance.

Ke Ke Shisan's body size began to skyrocket. Even maintaining a human form, he was over ten zhang tall, his shoulders broad like a small mountain. This majestic figure even surpassed his grandfather.

"Hoo."

Shen Yi began to condense demon magic origin and feed it in, helping this Eastern Hall Master stabilize his demon soul, gradually control this brand-new body, and also let him better restrain his aura.

This was a trump card; it was best not to expose it if not necessary.

Finally, Ke Ke Shisan opened his eyes, terrifying brilliance surging in those eyes.

He maintained a cross-legged posture, and in the eyes of others, he vaguely had a bit of the Southern Dragon King's flavor.

Late Heavenly Realm!

Shen Yi didn't rush to be excited, but observed carefully.

After a while, he exhaled lightly.

Although it was the same realm, the Southern Dragon King's foundation was clearly much deeper, and even compared to Senior Ye, it was still inferior.

Still not stable enough.

After all, what Shen Yi wanted wasn't to surpass that old Dragon King, nor to suppress the other party, but to behead him, and he couldn't cause too much commotion to avoid news leaking out.

"Can only think of a way from myself."

Shen Yi signaled for Ke Ke Shisan to turn back into a suppression stone and sit back, then sat on the futon in the middle of the main hall.

His current strength was actually equivalent to the mid-Heavenly Realm, but whether it was the Divine Mountain Suppressing the Clear Sky or the Supreme Netherworld Mansion, they were far stronger than ordinary divine abilities, so he was considered one of the stronger ones in the mid-Heavenly Realm, and he was still a long way from these late-Heavenly Realm ones.

If he wanted to continue improving, it was nothing more than divine abilities or Immortal methods.

The former required a large number of Harmony Realm demon suppression stones to fill the Myriad Demon Palace. Currently, there was no suitable opportunity, and there was no time.

"Immortal method..."

Shen Yi summoned the panel, his gaze falling on the Myriad Tribulations Blood God Great Method.

This was an introductory fragment taken by Yue Yue Tianji from the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect. If he wanted to get the subsequent methods, he would definitely have to take a trip to Northern Hong.

"Where would I have that leisure time."

Shen Yi took a deep breath. Since becoming the General Nanyang Sect Master, he hadn't worried about cultivation methods for a long time.

Now that he suddenly had to start deducing demon magic methods again, he actually felt a bit unaccustomed to it for a moment.

That kind of torture etched into his bones, just recalling it slightly, made one shudder.

He reached out and condensed a demon magic treasure crystal.

Shen Yi hadn't touched this kind of thing that only required a thousand years of demon lifespan for a long time.

But the demon souls that could be awakened by this thing now were not comparable to those of the past.

He lowered his eyes to look at his palm.

The demon blood stained on these hands, even counting only those above the Harmony Realm, had to be calculated in double digits.

Plus several hall masters, all included in the panel.

【First year, you open the Myriad Tribulations Blood God Great Method fragment, casually swallow the demon magic treasure crystal, and the dormant demon remnants begin to awaken...】

With the massive influx of demon lifespan.

In an instant, thousands upon thousands of demon roars rang in Shen Yi's ears, and the gathered resentment was nearly about to break through the clouds!

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 593 =====

Seeing the dark red long robe roll up, Shen Yi had already stepped to within arm's reach, his aura surging to the extreme, once again turning into a towering Divine Mountain, causing the entire blue sky to move along with it.

That slender right arm slowly unfolded, and the palm occupied by blood talismans magnified rapidly in the Southern Dragon King's line of sight.

Puchi!

Under the full support of the Divine Mountain Suppressing the Blue Sky, Shen Yi's palm touched the gap of the blade wound he had deliberately left on the Southern Dragon King's neck earlier, and then thrust into it violently.

Amidst the scalding demon blood, he grabbed the Southern Dragon King's cervical spine bone fiercely.

At the same time, needle-shaped gray mists rippled from Shen Yi's fingertips, surging toward the Southern Dragon King's limbs and bones.

The gray mist condensed from the Ten Thousand Tribulations Ruthless Dao, which gathered endless resentment, had a ferocity that far exceeded the pure killing intent from before.

It crazily eroded the Southern Dragon King's muscles and bones.

"You... you!"

The Southern Dragon King's throat was pierced, its voice slurred, yet it was filled with the most real panic.

Behind it, tyrannical demon power surged into its body along Ke Ke Shisan's palms.

Scarlet demon power and gray mist ravaged simultaneously, and coupled with the already heavily injured demon body that had not yet had time to recover, the superposition of many factors finally made the Southern Dragon King feel a touch of the aura of death.

It struggled with all its might to break free.

Ke Ke Shisan, like pulling out a blade, tore out two palms covered in flesh and blood, then hugged the Southern Dragon King tightly in his arms, his two thick arms squeezing the Southern Dragon King's body to the point of deformation and distortion!

Gaji! Gaji!

"Where do you want to escape to..."

Ke Ke Shisan's whisper was no different from a death warrant in the Southern Dragon King's ears.

It could no longer turn back and was forced to stare at Shen Yi's calm pupils.

The remaining Sect Masters, including Ji Ji Jingxi, also stood silently in place. If even Ye Jiu couldn't catch Sect Master Shen's eye, then there was no need to mention them.

Perhaps for such a heaven-defying talent, the identity of General Nanyang Sect Master was just an insignificant experience in his cultivation journey.

As for the hopes they placed on the other party, it was unreasonable to begin with; whether it was the Immortal or Northern Hong, they had no grudges against him.

Sect Master Shen had no reason to do so much for a force he had only recently met.

Being able to help out was already a great favor.

It was just that they had no other way. Having finally seen a glimmer of hope, they could only frantically numb themselves, using this to comfort their hearts that wanted revenge but were also cowardly.

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 591 =====

No response was given.

Shen Yi just squeezed his five fingers earnestly until a dull sound rang out between his palms.

Kacha!

Almost simultaneously, the ravaging demon power instantly tore through the Southern Dragon King's body.

Those dense gaps that had just healed all burst open.

All the gray mist surged together, wrapping around its heart that was still beating, and instantly crushed it!

"..."

The Southern Dragon King's pair of pupils gradually turned gray and dim.

It stared blankly at Shen Yi.

Watching this young man slowly withdraw his palm from its throat.

The Southern Dragon King seemed to have lost all its strength; its head drooped, and it knelt down before that long robe with a thud.
