The cultivators and monsters on the ship are the 'Sea Extermination Alliance' mentioned in the [Side Quest - Unyielding Might] quest.

Before us was a huge Bagua platform, with a group of people sitting in each of the eight directions, a total of eight groups.

Si led Li Changzhou and the others in from the 'Ze' position. The 'Ze' position was occupied by the Qingcheng Sword Sect, led by a man and a woman. To those with slightly higher cultivation levels, they appeared as two dazzling sword lights.

If an ordinary person without cultivation had enough wisdom to see through some of the true nature of things, their eyes would be blinded by the sword light. Such an ordinary person would also be terrified to death by the Chaos Yang Serpent and the Giant Kun when looking at Li Changzhou.

This situation is somewhat similar to Yang Qinglan's [Goddess of Gushe] 'low-level and cannot be looked at directly', except that she is a professional in this instinct 'cannot be looked at directly'. Anyone with low ability who sees [Goddess of Gushe] can be killed directly by her.

The position of 'Thunder' belongs to the Shenxiao Sect, led by Lin Lingsu, who once instigated Emperor Huizong of Song to persecute Buddhism;

The 'Wind' position belongs to the Qingwei Sect, whose leader is a female Taoist priest with a graceful appearance, but what she senses is a terrifying blue lightning plasma.

Judging from her aura alone, the Qingwei nun's skill in thunder magic is in no way inferior to that of the world-renowned Lin Lingsu. The reason she didn't get the 'thunder' position is probably because the Shenxiao Sect is more famous.

The 'water' position is Shangqing Palace.

Behind each person is a "Dan Well", also called "Spirit Spring Well" or "Magic Power Well". This well makes everyone in Shangqing Palace have two or three times more magical power than their peers.

The city that never sleeps is a 'fire' in the city.

They were all dressed as royalty and nobles, and each possessed a different kind of magical aura.

The mountain position is associated with demons.

Most of them are sea creatures, water gods, dragons and snakes, giant whales, and yin spirit water beasts;

The "Dragon and Tiger" faction is in a position of power.

Above his head, auspicious clouds surged forth, and dragons and tigers on the clouds constantly nourished the golden elixir or primordial spirit. The leader, Zhang Zhenren, had his primordial spirit almost filling the 'heaven' position, radiating infinite brilliance.

There is only one person in the 'Heaven' position: Princess Iron Fan.

A dignified earth immortal possesses the magical treasure, the Yin-Yang Banana Leaf Fan—another Yin-Yang Banana Leaf Fan is the treasure of Laozi, which shows how powerful the Banana Leaf Fan is.

With Si added in, this constituted the entire force used to besiege Mount Putuo.

They weren't exactly weak, though. The leaders of each sect were all second-class immortals, and each sect had two or three third-class immortals under their command. Princess Iron Fan was even an earth immortal.

Unfortunately, the opponent was no ordinary immortal; he was Guanyin, one of the four great Bodhisattvas of Buddhism.

Everyone looked at the five people who entered.

"Gentlemen," Si said, "this is—"

"A stray dog, no need for introductions," the male sword immortal of the Qingcheng Sword Sect sneered.

"Li Changzhou!" A middle-aged nobleman in the City That Never Sleeps put down his wine cup. "He spends all his time with women, even flirting with the princess of Zhao Song. Does he still care about the Tang Dynasty and the cause of restoring the country?"

"We agreed to meet at the South China Sea on the fifth day of the third lunar month, Qingming Festival. Where have you gone again?" another king from the City That Never Sleeps scolded.

Li Changzhou touched his nose.

Leading this group to attack Putuo Mountain from the front is as difficult as the Road Traffic Safety Law trying to prevent everyone from running red lights by using Article 38, "When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from passing."

Li Changzhou wasn't angry; the City Never Sleeps was angry at his lack of ambition.

Besides, a true man can bend and stretch. If Xiang Yu had been willing to cross the Yangtze River back then, the country might not have been his. If we're going to learn from someone, we should learn from Han Xin...

"A disobedient genius is worse than a pig or a dog. What use is he? Depose him from his position as city lord!"

"Those who have forgotten the great cause of restoring their nation and have forgotten their ancestors, hand over the Five Elements True Blade!"

“And the demoness from the Song Dynasty,” Lin Lingsu of the Shenxiao Sect looked at Yaochi, “hand over the Yingzhou Jade Carving, and I may spare your life.”

“Indeed, we should spare her life. She’s so beautiful; it would be a waste for her to die,” the water god leered.

Li Changzhou put down his hand that was touching his nose.

...Han Xin died a more tragic death than Xiang Yu.

“I’ve forgotten,” he said to himself, “Killing Guanyin wasn’t for any noble cause; everyone here came here for their own selfish desires.”

"Selfish desires?" The middle-aged king of the City That Never Sleeps sneered. "You beasts who have forgotten to restore their kingdoms, do you even have the right to speak to us!"

Li Changzhou looked at Si: "You are the master of this place. How do you plan to handle this situation?"

"Dare to ignore me? You think you're invincible just because you've mastered the Five Elements True Blade?"

Snap!

The middle-aged king raised his hand and slapped her hard, the fierce wind harder than iron and sharper than a knife.

Li Changzhou grabbed at the air with his large hand and crushed the gale force of the slap.

"Youngster, how dare you fight back!" Another prince pointed his hand.

Behind the king, seven stars appeared: Tian Shu, Tian Xuan, Tian Ji, Tian Quan, Yu Heng, Kai Yang, and Yao Guang, forming the Big Dipper. The combined power of the seven stars gave birth to a spark of Ziwei Heavenly Fire.

This finger, wreathed in purple flames, carried unparalleled kingly might as it hurtled toward Li Changzhou.

Li Changzhou raised his hand and pinched the Purple Star Heavenly Fire between his fingertips.

The king was incredulous; even the Big Dipper behind him trembled with panic.

How could my hard-earned trump card be so easily seized?

Don't underestimate the Purple Star Heavenly Fire just because it's only the size of a fingernail; its power far surpasses that of the Samadhi True Fire.

"You accuse me of forgetting my ancestors based on this?" Li Changzhou glanced at the Purple Flame in his hand and exploded with anger. "A three-and-a-half-pound duck—daring to pretend to be a goose? Are you playing house?!"

Before he finished speaking, he grabbed at the two kings with his left hand. The giant Kun and the Hungry Ghost Dao exerted their power at the same time, and the two were pulled towards him without any resistance.

At the same time, Li Changzhou released his right hand, and the oil cauldron of the Hell Path landed on the Bagua Platform with a loud bang.
