Refining Puppets from Flood Dragons and Red Dragons with Dragon Bloodline—what a domineering and astonishing method!

Is this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect truly ordinary?!

"Two Yin God Flood Dragon Puppets!" Pang Feifeng's eyes narrowed slightly.

Moreover, they weren't ordinary Puppets; they were practically indistinguishable from real Flood Dragons. The Dragon Might, Flood Dragon talents, and everything else were present.

"The Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect has such profound achievements in the Puppet Technique!"

Many Sect cultivators were left trembling with fear.

These were Flood Dragons with Dragon Bloodline. Under normal circumstances, just these two Yin God Flood Dragons could completely wipe them out.

But now, these two terrifying Flood Dragons were merely the Puppets of that Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect!

What was even more chilling to think about was that beneath the feet of this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, there was a third dragon, a Red Dragon.

There were also twenty-four Puppets whose strength, while not comparable to the Flood Dragons or the Red Dragon, was still extremely extraordinary.

Moreover, they had formed a nearly perfect combined attack formation, appearing as one body...

"Now, the danger is probably no longer this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, but rather that Heavenly Pride from the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, Xiahou Mang!"

This thought arose almost simultaneously in the hearts of cultivators from various Sects.

Especially those Sect cultivators who were affiliated with the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, their hearts were filled with apprehension and unease.

The Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect acted domineeringly and arrogantly, and crucially, his strength was terrifyingly high. With just a slight move, he had already clearly made the Heavenly Pride of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, Xiahou Mang, feel pressure.

If he were to release the Red Dragon beneath his feet to join the battle, Xiahou Mang might very well be surrounded and killed by the numerous Puppets on the spot.

More importantly, no one knew how many more such Puppets this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect possessed.

When he released ten Puppets to kill the Yu Lei Green Lion earlier, everyone thought Lu Chen only had ten Puppets. However, in the blink of an eye, Lu Chen released twenty-four ordinary Puppets, and even two Flood Dragon Puppets with Dragon Bloodline.

Once that Heavenly Pride of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, Xiahou Mang, was killed on the spot, wouldn't the various Sects affiliated with the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven be thoroughly cleansed by this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect!

Furthermore, once the Heavenly Pride of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven was slain by the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, those Body Refinement brutes from the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven would likely go mad on the spot!

In contrast to the cultivators of the Sects affiliated with the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, the cultivators of the Sects affiliated with the Dongming Sect were greatly invigorated at this moment.

"So the Dongming Sect also has a Heavenly Pride?!"

Previously, before the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect arrived, the Heavenly Pride from the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, the Flying Immortal Sect, and the South Chu Royal Family arrived one after another, which scared them quite a bit.

They were both afraid that the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect wouldn't come, and also afraid that if he did come, he wouldn't be useful and would be completely suppressed by these Heavenly Pride.

So much so that they didn't even dare to speak loudly here.

But now, the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect was powerful and domineering. Regardless of whether you were a Heavenly Pride or a Genius, he would beat you without mercy. This truly made them feel honored, and even their blood seemed to be boiling.

This Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect was too strong and sufficiently domineering. He didn't say anything, didn't ask anything, and upon arrival, he directly killed the Yu Lei Green Lion of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven. When the Heavenly Pride of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, Xiahou Mang, stepped forward to question him, if their words didn't align, this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect even wanted to kill Xiahou Mang, this Heavenly Pride, along with him!

This was no longer just domineering; this was arrogant, lawless, and doing whatever he pleased!

So, following such an existence, could they still suffer a loss?

"Boom!"

The most astonishing collision erupted in the clouds. Xiahou Mang held his innate Spirit Treasure, the 'Mixed Gold Shattering Hammer', behind him, his blood energy surging like a fiery cloud, and the colossal Vajra ape it transformed into continuously emitted silent roars, as if it could come alive at any moment. Wildness accompanied ferocity, and its Aura was terrifying. It hammered in the Void, continuously colliding with the Twofold Tactics Formation formed by the two Jiaolong Divine Walking Dao Soldiers.

The Flood Dragons soared into the sky, stirring up clouds and mist, gathering the power of the Five Elements, heavenly wind, and clouds. The Twofold Tactics Formation seemed to transform the two Jiaolong Divine Walking Dao Soldiers into Yin and Yang fish, moving invisibly. When they combined, they arrived together, completely as one body, without any division.

Just the Twofold Tactics Formation formed by the two Jiaolong Divine Walking Dao Soldiers was enough to make Xiahou Mang drenched in sweat. The innate Spirit Treasure, 'Mixed Gold Shattering Hammer', was useless in his hands because the Jiaolong Divine Walking Dao Soldiers were too fast, especially within the clouds, which was originally the Flood Dragon's territory. Their ten layers of strength could be fully exerted to twelve layers. Moreover, the Divine Travel Dao Soldiers inherently controlled the power of wind.

More importantly, in addition to the two Jiaolong Divine Walking Dao Soldiers forming the Twofold Tactics Formation, there were also twenty-four Five Elements Dao Soldiers, each forming a Twelve Yuan Chen Formation. They were clearly positioned in different array spots, seemingly forming Shenhou, Taichong, Tiangang, Taiyi, Hekui, Dengming, Zhuming, and other Yuan Chen. However, once they attacked, they moved in an instant, appearing as one, with astonishing power.

"Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, you are going too far in bullying me!" With his blood energy boiling and his hair disheveled, Xiahou Mang, covered in blood from being beaten, was completely enraged. Subsequently, a blood energy deity walked out from behind him, which was none other than the colossal Vajra ape.

"Roar!" A silent roar spread out, and the colossal Vajra ape suddenly dispersed into formless blood energy, instantly appearing before one of the Five Elements Dao Soldiers. However, at the same moment, that Five Elements Dao Soldier suddenly opened its mouth and inhaled continuously, actually swallowing the blood energy deity in one gulp.

At this moment, let alone Xiahou Mang, even Lu Chen was stunned!

A blood energy deity, just like that?

He thought this guy was going to do something big, but it turned out he just took a big dump!

Of course, this was just a joke. The moment Xiahou Mang's blood energy deity appeared, his Dao Soldiers all sent extremely strong desires.

That was a stronger desire than when they saw myriad ghosts or Black-haired Zombies.

At that moment, Lu Chen had already anticipated that Xiahou Mang was about to suffer greatly, because his Dao Soldiers happened to counter his blood energy deity.

If Xiahou Mang hadn't performed this move of transforming solid into void, his blood energy deity could indeed be comparable to a Yin God. But unfortunately, Xiahou Mang's blood energy deity just happened to transform into void blood energy, so it was naturally swallowed by the Dao Soldier in one gulp.

At this moment, a drastic change also occurred in the Dao Soldier that had swallowed Xiahou Mang's blood energy.

"It's going to advance to a Divine Travel Dao Soldier!" Lu Chen was overjoyed. He waved his hand and recalled that Five Elements Dao Soldier, and also summoned another Five Elements Dao Soldier along the way.

At the same moment, Xiahou Mang, who had originally erupted with imposing power and was about to unleash his strongest combat strength, suddenly turned pale. His astonishing Aura plummeted again and again, finally becoming completely listless. Even the innate Spirit Treasure 'Mixed Gold Shattering Hammer' in his hand gradually became ethereal, about to fade away.

"Pfft!" He spat out a mouthful of blood, both shocked and angry: "Why is my blood energy deity..."

What is a blood energy deity? It is the foundation of a Body Refinement cultivator, equivalent to the Yin God of a Qi Refinement cultivator. However, it is not like a Yin God; once a Yin God is destroyed, the cultivator will instantly die.

A blood energy deity is more domineering, but once it is lost, what is lost is half of one's life and half of one's cultivation.

"Bang!"

Almost at the moment Xiahou Mang's blood energy deity was swallowed, and while Xiahou Mang was coughing up blood and listless, the Flood Dragon Divine Travel Dao Soldier forming the Twofold Tactics Formation appeared like a ghost and swallowed Xiahou Mang into its belly, not even leaving a corpse behind.

Even Xiahou Mang, whose strength had plummeted and was listless, didn't have time to react at all before he disappeared from the spot!

"The innate Spirit Treasure is mine!" Lu Chen was pleasantly surprised. He instantly beckoned and recalled the Flood Dragon Divine Travel Dao Soldier that had swallowed Xiahou Mang, putting it into the Nurturing Soldier Immortal Coffin.

He wanted to see if this innate Spirit Treasure could nurture a Dao Soldier.

Or, he also wanted to see what kind of reaction the Nurturing Soldier Immortal Coffin would have after receiving an innate Spirit Treasure!

"The Heavenly Pride of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, by the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect..."

"Destroyed?!"

At this moment, the entire area in front of Yunyong Mountain, all the Sect cultivators, fell into a strange, deathly silence.

Even Pang Feifeng of the Flying Immortal Sect instantly felt her hair stand on end and subtly distanced herself from Lu Chen.

"This Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect is terrifying, frightening, invincible, and not to be provoked!" Chu Xianyin of the South Chu Royal Family's heart pounded. Looking at the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, who stood on the head of the Red Dragon, with his hands clasped behind his back from beginning to end, as if even his indifferent expression had never shown any fluctuation, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.

What was swallowed by that Flood Dragon just now was not some ordinary high-level Yin God cultivator.

That was a Heavenly Pride just like her, just like Pang Feifeng!

It was an existence born with a Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure. Such existences are often favored by heaven and earth, possess supreme potential, and their strength and foundation are far higher than ordinary cultivators.

Even those so-called special Bloodlines and special Spiritual Veins are not worth mentioning in front of a Heavenly Pride born with a Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure.

But now, such a Heavenly Pride, in the hands of Lu Chen, the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, couldn't even last for a quarter of an hour before being surrounded and killed by those terrifying and powerful Puppets, not even leaving a corpse behind.

More importantly, Xiahou Mang was the treasure of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, the hope of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven in this generation. If nothing unexpected happened, the future Xiahou Mang would become the new Abode Master of Tianyuan Cave Abode and would likely achieve beyond the Yang God realm, stepping into the universe starry sky, competing with countless Heavenly Pride in the vast universe starry sky, and contending with those legendary powerful races.

However, none of this had happened yet. Xiahou Mang of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven fell into the hands of the current Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, was completely annihilated, and left no bones.

There is no need to think about it; the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven will definitely not let this go and will launch an unimaginable great war.

Xiahou Mang cannot die in vain. The Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect, a Hegemon Sect of South Chu, is powerful and domineering, but the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven is even more domineering, and has been domineering for many, many years!

"The Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect has destroyed the Heavenly Pride of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, this..."

Some Sect cultivators gasped, their legs trembling.

This Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect is too domineering and too powerful, even lawless. He even dared to kill the Traveling Envoy of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, who is also a Hegemon Sect. South Chu might be turned upside down by this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect!

"It's over. The Nanchu Grand Wash this time will probably completely change because of this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect!"

In the past, the Nanchu Grand Wash was determined by the Three Hegemon Sects. Even if there was a cleansing, it wouldn't reach the heads of the Three Hegemon Sects. They were high above, overlooking everything and deciding everything.

But now, the Nanchu Grand Wash has just begun, and the medium and small Sects have not been cleansed yet. The Traveling Envoy of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven, a Hegemon, was cleansed first by the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect. Who could have predicted this?

Everyone had countless conjectures about the Nanchu Grand Wash, but no one had ever thought that the Traveling Envoy of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven would be the first to be cleansed.

And the one who took action to cleanse everything was this mysterious Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect who arrived riding a Red Dragon.

"How about we run!" A Sect cultivator whispered tremblingly, transmitting his voice to his friend.

This place is too terrifying!

The Nanchu Grand Wash would have been a place where blood flowed like rivers, even a place where the Dao lineage of a Sect could be extinguished at any time. But now, a more domineering, powerful, and lawless ruthless person has appeared here, making the already dangerous Nanchu Grand Wash even more terrifying.

Who would dare to stay here!

If he were to cleanse the entire South Chu without saying a word, who would you go to for justice?

Don't say that this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect wouldn't do such a thing. He even beat the Heavenly Pride and Traveling Envoy of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven into a state of having no bones left without saying a word. Is there anything he wouldn't dare to do?

To be honest, having been in the cultivation world for so many years, they have seen many ruthless people, but this is the first time they have seen such a lawless person as this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect.

Moreover, he is ruthless and speaks little. Xiahou Mang, the Traveling Envoy of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven who was swallowed by the Flood Dragon, probably couldn't understand until his death why Lu Chen wanted to kill his Yu Lei Green Lion as soon as he arrived, and he would never understand that because of a Yu Lei Green Lion, he lost his life.

There is no reason to speak of!

Over a hundred miles away, in the clouds.

The three Aspect Masters of the Twelve Phase Sect, wearing various Chen Dragon masks, Yin Tiger masks, and Shen Monkey masks, suddenly fell into a strange silence.

After a long time, the cultivator wearing the Shen Monkey mask spoke hoarsely: "Should we continue the hunt targeting the Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect?"

The cultivator wearing the Yin Tiger mask hesitated and said: "How about... we forget it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two Aspect Masters looked at Chen Dragon, who had remained silent.

The Aspect Master wearing the Chen Dragon mask was silent for a long time, and finally sighed softly: "The time is not right, let's stop for now and find another opportunity!"

It wasn't that they didn't dare, nor were they scared by that mysterious Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect. It was simply that the timing was not good.

So, it was just that the timing was not good, it was really not because they were scared.

Would the Twelve Phase Sect, which has always been a mortal enemy of the Dongming Sect, be scared?

What a joke! They even dared to ambush and kill the Grand Elder and Third Elder of the Dongming Sect. Would they be afraid of a Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect?

Nonsense!

If the timing is not good, of course, they cannot make a move. This is called assessing the situation, this is called the matter is not feasible!

The three Aspect Masters looked at each other and, by tacit agreement, turned and left.

Damn, this Traveling Envoy of the Dongming Sect is a lunatic! They hadn't even had a chance to secretly assist Xiahou Mang, that Heavenly Pride of the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven!

He had already destroyed Xiahou Mang's body. How could they make a move now?

They would probably just be sending themselves to their deaths!

Just at this moment, two high-level cultivators from the Demonic Path, emanating sinister energy and shrouded in black ghostly Aura, came from higher clouds. Seeing the three Aspect Masters of the Twelve Phase Sect turn back, they immediately frowned and were surprised: "Three Aspect Masters, why are you retreating?"

The three Aspect Masters said in unison: "The time is not right, let's retreat first and find another opportunity."

With that, they left without looking back.

Only the two high-level Demonic Path cultivators were left, their brows furrowing tighter and tighter.

What do you mean the time is not right? Such a rare opportunity, an opportunity that the Tianyuan Grotto-heaven was willing to cooperate with, and these homeless dogs from the Twelve Phase Sect actually turned around and left!

"Useless, not worth planning with!" The two high-level Demonic Path cultivators looked at each other and finally headed in the opposite direction from the three Aspect Masters of the Twelve Phase Sect.

Since the Twelve Phase Sect didn't dare, their Demonic Path would just have to accept this great gift!
