Li Changshou stood on the ruins of the Crystal Palace and looked at the deep pit in front of him. He could not help but feel puzzled …
Why are you running?
Why are you all running?
Originally, with Ox-head and Horse-face as "guest actors", Li Changshou felt that he could be safer this time and did not need to take action.
He had a high chance of delaying, breaking out of the encirclement, and escaping.
However, halfway through the first plan, the Great Daoist Master suddenly gave an order. As his junior brother, he could only passively do business and change his train of thought. He revealed the traditional skills of the disciple of Ren School, the civil official of the Celestial Court, and the Young Master Xuandu.
At that moment, the problem seemed to have become, "How should I deal with thousands of experts?"
In fact, the problem was …
I have a 98% chance of escaping at any time. When facing thousands of experts who lack great mystical abilities, how can I inadvertently let them know that they can't break my defense?
The reason why Li Changshou could "change the script" so decisively was mainly because he had already prepared that backup plan. He was confident before he attacked.
Secondly, there were no experts who were disciples of the Saints there.
There were also strong and weak Primordial Beasts. Wen Jing and Jin Chanzi were already considered ruthless characters. The group of ferocious beasts from the West Ocean Dragon Palace was clearly weaker.
Moreover, the minds of the dragons there had been controlled by the Western Sect with incantations.
Although the old dragons were powerful and had been accumulated by the West Ocean Dragon Palace for a long time, there was no true ancient expert like the West Ocean Dragon King. There was also no ancient battle dragon guarding the Sea Eye.
Otherwise, Li Changshou would not have dared to explode rashly!
Let's see how he did it …
First, he used the paper effigy in the shape of a calabash to counterattack. Then, he endured the attacks of dozens of elders of the Dragons and created the image of a "mighty figure".
Throughout the entire process, he had locked onto the other party's leader, Crown Prince Ao Shi. He had threatened him with words, protected himself with treasures, and successfully captured Ao Shi …
The most difficult part of that plan was not to use an escape technique to reach Ao Shi's side, but to successfully escape from the encirclement of dozens of Dragons.
Li Changshou's solution was actually very simple.
He just didn't go in.
The moment he turned into a stream of water and exploded, his true body had already dodged to the side with the escape technique.
He used dozens of streams of water to attract the other party's attention. Then, he secretly used the Cosmic Escape technique to send a Gold God realm paper effigy behind Ao Shi.
Li Changshou's attainments in the Cosmic Escape technique were far inferior to the other escape techniques that he had immersed himself in for many years. When his main body used it, there would be greater obstacles and many traces.
However, Li Changshou was already familiar with using the Cosmic Escape technique to send the paper effigy to the designated location.
When the paper effigy used the Da Yu Hydrology Diagram to cause trouble and trap Ao Shi, Li Changshou immediately used the teleportation technique to send the treasure map back to his main body. Then, his main body appeared and attracted the other party's attention. He used that to cover the activation of the Earth Emanations Spirit Explosion Array on the Golden Immortal realm paper effigy …
The implementation of the entire plan could be said to be as smooth as flowing water, interlocking with each other, without any major flaws.
Li Changshou, on the other hand, only needed to grasp the right rhythm to create a feeling of 'coming and going freely', dazzling and overwhelming the audience, thereby deepening the psychological trauma.
[The so-called 'thrilling' during this period is just a misconception of the enemy and the bystanders.]
But what puzzled Li Changshou was that after the spirit explosion, the enemy …
He retreated just like that.
The other party retreated very quickly. Before the lingering effects of the spirit explosion dissipated, the traitorous dragons had already turned around and retreated from the Crystal Palace.
When they left, many ferocious beasts and traitorous dragons were cursing and swearing, yelling at the civil officials of the Celestial Court. They even said that the generals of the Celestial Court were just a cover, and that the real ruthless people were all retiring in the civil officials.
It was obvious that they were slandering the amiable image of the immortals and gods of the Celestial Court!
However, the other party quickly retreated, making Li Changshou feel a little regretful. After all, he was already prepared to sacrifice more than three Gold God realm paper effigies today.
There was a limit to the number of Gold God realm paper effigies that could exist at the same time. However, they could be created again after they were destroyed.
Why did the other party retreat?
Weren't these traitorous dragons controlled by the Western Sect? What happened to being fearless of death?
The spiritual explosion just now did not cause much damage. It only tore apart more than half of the old dragons in the core area of the Cosmic Seal.
Half of them still had their corpses intact.
However, because of the densely packed positions of the traitorous dragons and the Cosmic Seal, the power of the spiritual explosion was reduced. Only 30% of the other thousands of experts were injured, and 70% were fine …
There were more casualties in the periphery of the rebel army, but most of them were Immortal Flood Dragon troops in the Perfected Immortal realm. They fully demonstrated the accurate definition of the word 'cannon fodder' in the Primordial World.
When the other party retreated, not only did the thousands of experts retreat, but the hundreds of thousands of troops in the periphery also quickly retreated to the Aparagodānīya Continent.
They completely ignored the formation and fled in an extremely sorry state.
Li Changshou did not have time to chase after them. He could only rely on the Water God Deity Position that had yet to be completely condensed to calm the roars of the West Ocean. He reduced the casualties of the living beings in the sea and prevented himself from increasing too much negative karma …
Then, he sorted out the subsequent operations of the plan and felt a little regretful.
He could not use it again.
No matter how he calculated, he still could not predict the Heart of Living Beings.
This time, he had miscalculated the enemy's psychological endurance …
At that moment, with Li Changshou as the dot, half of the Crystal Palace in the fan-shaped area behind him was safe and sound.
Clearly, during the spiritual explosion just now, the Pagoda Master had helped to protect the remaining fire seeds of the West Ocean Dragon Palace.
Ao Shi, who had returned to his human form, was lying behind Li Changshou. His entire body was covered in wounds, and he was barely breathing. He was already seriously injured.
Stabilizing himself, Li Changshou sent out a wisp of immortal power and added a few … ten layers of seals to Ao Shi's dragon soul.
In case he self-destructed.
Li Changshou then investigated his surroundings and activated a portion of the paper effigies to receive the experts of the Dragons who had rushed over from three different directions. He allowed them to avoid encountering the main force of the rebel army and increase the unnecessary casualties.
The light membrane of the Five-Element Array slowly retracted. The calabash spirit children put the small calabash back on their heads and turned into paper effigies. They flew towards the calabash vines and entered the cracked calabashes.
Li Changshou opened his left hand and the calabash vines returned to his sleeve.
He looked at the deep pit in front of him and sighed softly. He turned around and took two steps towards the West Ocean Dragon King.
The hundred-odd Immortal Flood Dragon troops subconsciously took half a step back. The experts of the Dragons surrounding the throne had complicated gazes.
Behind the throne, two hooded Battle Shamans squatted there with their hands in their sleeves. They were whispering to each other.
At that moment, they were muttering softly, "Is this what the Water God meant by stalling for time? Neigh … "
"Isn't that so?"
Ox-head chuckled. "Kill all the enemies and buy time for our reinforcements to rush over. That can be considered as stalling for time. Moo …"
"Are we still going to capture the soul?"
"How are we going to capture it? Where are the souls? The Water God is coming. Let's go!"
As they muttered, the two Magi jumped behind Li Changshou. They hugged their arms and dragged a pile of chains to the front of the West Ocean Dragon King.
With the support of the dignified and beautiful dragon mother beside him, the West Ocean Dragon King stood up shakily and bowed.
"Thank you for saving my life, Water God."
"Dragon King, you don't have to be so polite," Li Changshou hurriedly replied and took out two bottles of pills. "Are you poisoned, Dragon King?"
"That's right." The West Ocean Dragon King felt ashamed when he heard that. "The Water God had clearly reminded me previously, but I was still careless and fell into his trap. I did not expect that the Western Sect had completely emptied my Dragon Palace."
Li Changshou shook his left hand gently and placed Ao Shi, who only had a rough outline, in front of the Dragon King and Dragon Mother.
The Dragon King's eyes widened. He struck with his hand and wanted to kill Ao Shi with his palm.
Many of the Dragon Palace generals and elders at the side shouted softly, "Your Majesty …"
The Dragon Mother also reached out to stop him. However, she raised her hand and stopped after saying the word "Your Majesty".
Ao Shi could no longer live.
However, Li Changshou stood up and sighed softly. "Dragon King, you can't kill him now."
The West Ocean Dragon King's eyes were red. He said in a low voice, "Water God, why are you pleading for this unfilial son!?!"
"It's not that I'm pleading," Li Changshou said. "Ao Shi has committed a rebellion and wanted to kill his father. He has committed a heinous crime and should be beheaded.
However, the Dragon King and Ao Shi are both in the Celestial Court's Deity Position. Is it safer to bring Ao Shi to the Celestial Court and let the Jade Emperor deal with him?
When His Majesty gives the order, if he wants to execute Ao Shi, he will naturally push him to the Celestial Court's Dragon Slaying Platform. The Heavenly Dao Guillotine will fall and a dragon's head will fall to the ground. The Heavenly Dao will naturally remove the curse of his mental demons.
If Ao Shi sincerely repents at that time, perhaps His Majesty will show compassion and let him have a chance to reincarnate. "
Li Changshou paused. The West Ocean Dragon King, the Dragon Mother, and the surrounding elders looked at Li Changshou gratefully.
Even if Ao Shi's mind was controlled, he had to kill him for what he had done today. Otherwise, the Dragon King's prestige would be completely gone.
Li Changshou took the initiative to stop him. Firstly, it was to avoid the tragedy of a father killing his son. Secondly, it was to protect the dignity of the Celestial Court. Thirdly, he could take the opportunity to let the Celestial Court and the Netherworld have the first "official contact".
It was just a few words, but there were many considerations behind them. It could be considered a little wisdom of Li Changshou.
Li Changshou asked again, "Dragon King, why did Ao Shi and the others not attack previously?"
"They are interrogating the West Ocean's treasure vault," an elder of the Dragons sighed softly.
Li Changshou nodded slowly. It was not appropriate to ask about that topic.
He did not want to be hinted at again.
Suddenly, he heard dragon roars. Dozens of azure dragons rushed into the seawater from the south and north.
At that moment, thunder sounded from above the Dragon Palace. A ray of golden light shone, and rows of Heavenly Generals flew out …
It was the "rescue" and "cover" team that Li Changshou had arranged previously. They appeared on time.
The scene immediately became awkward …
Not long after, more than a hundred experts from the South Ocean and North Ocean Dragon Palaces, as well as the 100,000 Heavenly River Navy, surrounded the ruins of the Crystal Palace. They looked at the empty "battle" and fell into crazy self-doubt.
Is there a need for them?
…
An hour later …
The West Ocean Dragon King brought his remaining troops and the experts from the Three Seas Dragon Palaces to the West Ocean Sea Eye to assist in the defense.
Li Changshou also ordered the Heavenly River Navy to return to the Celestial Court and rush to the North Heavenly Gate to prepare for the second wave of "airborne".
Then, Li Changshou looked at the two jars of Dragon King's blood in front of him with a smile in his eyes.
Good stuff …
That was the Dragon King's blood that had gathered a large amount of poison in the Dragon King's body when he was treating the West Ocean Dragon King!
Poisonous pill raw material!
The Gold God's poison!
According to Li Changshou's preliminary judgment, the poison should have come from a Primordial Beast. It was a Connate poison. The poison was so powerful that even an old Zenith Heaven like the West Ocean Dragon King, the Gold God, almost could not withstand it.
Although he had exposed his trump card, the Calabash Spirit Child, his trump card vault would soon be expanded!
Li Changshou carefully took out three treasure pouches and put away the two jars of Dragon King's blood.
The conditions there were relatively simple. He could not touch that poison easily. He had to wait for the battle of the Dragons to stop and use the paper effigy to find a desolate mountain to deal with it slowly.
"Why are you doing this?"
The Pagoda Master asked lazily in his heart and lectured earnestly, "Explode, explode and everything will be over! What's so good about poison!?! It's not elegant at all!
You're a man who has mastered the mystic technique of Spirit Explosion!
How can Fairy Yun Xiao not fall in love with you if you explode a few more times? "
Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything. He was already used to the Pagoda Master's words.
"Lord Water God." Ox-head asked weakly, "Where are we going?
Both of us have memorized the lines you just said! Moo ~ "
Horse-face hurriedly added, "The Netherworld's servants will always be your companions, Lord Water God!"
Li Changshou nodded with a smile. "It's all thanks to your help just now, Fellow Daoists. Otherwise, the situation would have gotten out of hand."
"Lord, don't say that," Ox-head muttered. "If not for the fact that Horse-face and I insisted on following, not many of the Dragon Palace rebels would have escaped!"
"That's not the case …"
Li Changshou was about to explain the change in the situation just now when the familiar Taiji Painting appeared in the seawater beside him.
Li Changshou, Ox-head, and Horse-face immediately swam over and disappeared.
After they left, a few figures flew out from all directions and began to get busy in the deep pit at the bottom of the sea. They killed the corpses there one by one and used the Soul-Bewitching Pearl to collect the remnant souls.
Then, he gathered the corpses together and ignited the True Samadhi Flames.
He chanted the Expiation Sutra, the Disaster-Dispelling Blessing Incantation, and the Taiqing Soul-Calming Incantation.
A paper effigy opened a bubble in the seawater and gathered the ashes. It raised them again and blew the trumpet in the bubble. The ritual was instantly filled …
In the Sea God Temple.
The Great Daoist Master, Fairy Yun Xiao, Li Changshou, Ox-head, and Horse-face appeared one after another, as if they had never gone out before.
Li Changshou closed his eyes and focused. Through the paper effigy, he monitored the movements in the four seas.
To the Western Sect, although they could not find the "dragon treasure" in the West Ocean, they did not suffer many losses because they had retreated decisively. They would probably not give up today.
At that moment, the South Ocean and the East Ocean had already fallen into chaos. The Sea Clan rebels had launched a fierce attack, and the Dragons' front line was in a tight spot …
The Great Daoist Master saw Li Changshou frown and asked, "Changgeng, how is it?"
"There's chaos everywhere," Li Changshou said. "Brother, the paper effigy that I arranged for has already discovered the rebel army of the West Ocean Dragons. They are heading north and south at the edge of the Aparagodānīya Continent.
It seems that they are going to attack the North Ocean and the South Ocean.
The Western Sect's goal this time is clear. What they want is the accumulation of the Dragon Palace over the years as the foundation for the Western Sect to prosper. "
The Great Daoist Master frowned and said, "If the Western Sect prospers, where will the Dao Sect be? In that case!
Junior Sister Yun Xiao, protect Changgeng and go to the South Ocean. I'll go to the North Ocean to hold the fort. We must destroy the Western Sect's plan!
The Dao Sect's luck will be prosperous! "
After saying that, a Taiji Painting appeared behind the Great Daoist Master. He turned around and entered.
Fairy Yun Xiao, who was standing quietly at the side, could not help but blink.
She seemed to have been arranged.
Li Changshou hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, this matter!"
The Taiji Painting flashed and disappeared. The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du had already disappeared.
Yun Xiao could not help but chuckle and say gently,
"Senior Brother Xuandu's words make sense. The resistance against the Western Sect is not just about Ren School."
Li Changshou smiled helplessly and said, "I've embarrassed myself in the battle just now."
"Fellow Daoist, when you attack, it's fine if you don't move. Once you move, it's like a landslide." Yun Xiao smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you were born too late. If you had started cultivating in the ancient times, you would have long been a mighty figure."
Li Changshou shook his head and smiled. "It's good that you don't think that I'm unscrupulous."
Yun Xiao tilted her head slightly and pondered for a while. She asked softly, "Fellow Daoist, do you think that I only know how to cultivate and don't know the dangers of the Primordial World?"
Li Changshou smiled warmly and shook his head slowly. The two of them looked at each other and felt that they understood each other a little better.
In the corner …
Ox-head whispered, "Horse, we're quite awkward here. Moo."
Before Horse-face could mutter, a Taiji Painting appeared behind the two of them. Two huge hands extended out of thin air and pulled the two of them in.
The Great Daoist Master's voice sounded from the Taiji Painting.
"Changgeng! Catch! "
A ray of black light flew over and landed in front of Li Changshou. Li Changshou held it with both hands.
It was a Connate Merit numinous treasure, the Cosmic Ruler refined by the Saint of Taiqing!
The ruler was shaped like a blunt sword. It had once hit the East Emperor Bell and smashed the Kun Peng Soul. It was considered a rare offensive numinous treasure of Ren School!
Of course, just like the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, it was only borrowed and not given.
It would be a little rude to say that it was borrowed. This should be considered a special project of Ren School-Shared numinous treasures!
The Cosmic Ruler trembled slightly. A wisp of spirituality sounded in Li Changshou's heart, but it started to talk to the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.
"Let's go to the South Ocean Dragon Palace. Don't delay our business," Fairy Yun Xiao said.
"I dragged you into such karma …"
Li Changshou said apologetically.
"I'm not afraid." Yun Xiao's eyes were filled with starlight. She placed her hands behind her back and said, "Just spend more effort to make arrangements. Don't let me have a chance to attack."
