Seeing that Lin Peng had made up his mind, Laozi no longer hesitated. He immediately raised one finger and fiercely kindled a cluster of blue flames.
At a certain moment, the Thousand Trees Holy Venerable opened his eyes. It seemed as though endless images of light were reflected in his pupils, while countless living beings were born and perished without cease, repeating in an endless cycle and forming a perfect field of force.
Liu Fan nodded. Having Ma Teng as a father-in-law was truly fortunate. Not only had he given him the celestial beauty Ma Yunlu, but he could also help him solve his troubles whenever danger arose.
Lin Peng reached out, trying to touch the warm current enveloping him, but no matter how he tried, he could not grasp it. He could feel only a faint warmth against the surface of his skin.
Although Guluo had long since surpassed the realm of supreme-grade pills, he had never actually refined a pill bearing pill-veins. Calling it a ninth-grade pill was not wrong, but in truth, ninth-grade pills and pill-veined pills were entirely different concepts. Researching pill-veined elixirs was even more difficult than advancing from eighth grade to ninth grade. It could be said that they belonged to an entirely different level.
“The principles taught by the sages are ultimately not mistaken. It is merely that when the Great Dao fails, those who obtain power refuse to abide by such principles, throwing the moral order of the world into chaos.”
Silverwing understood what she meant. By all reason, the two of them should have fled the manor and gone far away, yet no one would have expected them to remain where they were, hiding right beneath everyone’s eyes. As she often said, the most dangerous place was also the safest.
“Haha, Old Huang, were you up all night?” Ouyang Jiayin asked with a grin as she blocked the doorway. In her hands, she held a large pineapple, whose fragrant aroma filled the air and made mouths water.
The Dragonhawk Beast King knew full well how important the Eagle King Token was, and thus unleashed all his abilities to seize it. After battling the Tianshan Snow Monkey for several hundred exchanges, however, he was careless for but a moment and was captured by Master Huaizhi inside the Violet-Gold Demon-Subduing Bottle, losing his final chance to escape.
“She is a soldier too. I heard about her long ago. I came here because of her. To be honest, I like her, but I do not even have a photograph of her,” Cao Meng’ang said, scratching his head.
The Yongle Pleasure House was, in the end, a place of the demimonde. Whether it used the name of a licensed pleasure quarter or dressed itself up as refined and aloof, nothing could change its essential nature.

After some time, the figure of Sky Profound appeared within Brentel City in Maya. At that moment, Victoria was warmly entertaining him.
Ye Qingli chuckled. Wu Youshi seemed to possess an innate, uncanny power that could put people at ease. Even when discussing his master’s attempt to break through, the matter sounded unusually simple when spoken by him.
“The first one.”
Yunxian coldly uttered those three words and relaxed her hand. The Invisible Sword vanished into thin air. Blood gushed from Lianyi’s chest, soaking through her clothes in the blink of an eye.
The sound of something tearing through the air came from behind. Ling Xiao gathered his thoughts, and the Xuanyuan Sword appeared in his palm. With a sudden motion, he raised it behind him to block the attack.
In principle, sound spreads outward. Under the art of sound attacks, the two extremes—very near and very far—were both safer than a distance that was neither near nor far.
The golden figure crushed a surge of red vines beneath one foot. Whether it was merely an illusion or something else, the golden figure now seemed taller and more massive than before.
In the past, he had slain many beasts at the Main God level. Their souls and spiritual power had all been absorbed by Heaven-Splitting, and when Heaven-Splitting refined them, it naturally acquired the memories of those beasts as well.
Supreme Venerable Byrne was furious. He desperately wanted Jiang Lin to continue fighting him, even if it meant being restrained and humiliated. So long as he could discover the reason behind it all, he felt it would be worthwhile. The power of Nothingness, upon which he had always prided himself, feared this thing so deeply and yet found it so exhilarating—he had to uncover the truth.
Thus, Nippel hurriedly assembled his forces. Leaving thirty thousand men behind to defend the area, he led a large army of eighty thousand toward the site of the avalanche at full speed. At the same time, he summoned all the snowmen from the surrounding regions to gather at his location.
The exchange hall was no longer like it had been several years earlier, with its enormous electronic screens and long rows of trading machines. Now, row upon row of computers filled the hall. Only the last few rows consisted of scattered seats, generally used for resting and chatting. That was where people played cards and chess.
An eighteenth-level mutated silver-grade boss, and a mage at that. There was still a fair chance of defeating it. Fortunately, this double-headed ogre mage chief had not completed its demonic transformation. Otherwise, facing a demonized boss would have been truly difficult; its strength would have risen by an astronomical degree.

After paying their respects, everyone departed. Since the consorts and concubines all loved to burn incense on their bodies, and each favored a different fragrance, the scents mingled together and smelled rather strange.
“It is fine. I will tear open an opening in a moment. Remember to have Yuli return quickly. That should be enough. Hahaha, this Blood Demon has already been angered by him into a state of utter fury.” Qi Shaoguang laughed loudly, seemingly not intimidated in the slightest by the Blood Demon’s crimson prison.
After hearing this, Qiuniang merely smiled. Aside from her usual training, she often took Awan to watch her former students dance.
Yang Ruhai had arrived early. He had ordered the food ahead of time and was waiting for Hu Xixi. For a glutton, the finest food was the greatest happiness and pleasure imaginable.
Su Lingfeng could not help curling her lip. He had really come here just to waste time arguing. What kind of creature was this bored, idle fool, anyway?
The streets were crowded with pedestrians, and many stallholders shouted their wares. Judging from the prosperity along the roads, the Kingdom of Zhending had not suffered the ravages of war in recent years and remained in a state of peaceful self-sufficiency.
“Huh? Where did the formula for the purple corydalis potion I was about to buy go?” After enthusiastically watching the contest over the advanced instant-recovery potion, a player in a pharmacist’s robe turned around, only to discover that not a single one of the items he wanted to purchase remained.
“Understood.” The girls acknowledged him and went about everything that needed to be done. Lanxin flushed a deep crimson, but there was nowhere for her to hide, so she had no choice but to continue serving here.
“Hey!”
Even a sleeping pig would have been jolted awake by that, let alone a human being. Pan Yunbao struggled to open his swollen, reddened eyes and instinctively raised a hand to shield them from the glaring light.
