With a thought, Hu Le sent the Dragon-Tiger Ruyi Scissors flying out of the purple gourd, transforming into a golden light that pierced through the seawater and shot away, circling gently in a space several miles away.
"ah!"
A scream rang out, and a burst of bloody light exploded from the other side, revealing two severed bodies in the blood. It was none other than the Xuan Guang King who had just escaped.
At this moment, his condition was not good. His face was pale, his demonic aura had greatly diminished, and a squid tentacle broken in two floated beside him.
Fortunately, his origins are quite mysterious. He is a cuttlefish from the sea who has attained enlightenment and possesses supernatural powers. The number of his tentacles corresponds to the number of lives he can take.
Just now, in a life-or-death crisis, he hurriedly used his innate divine power, sacrificing one of his tentacles to be cut in two in his place.
However, although he narrowly escaped death, his vital essence was greatly depleted, and even his cultivation level was greatly reduced.
"Ha! I never expected you, you wretched creature, to possess such extraordinary abilities! Not bad!"
Hu Le smiled and praised him, then raised his hand and pointed again.
The Ruyi Scissors, which had been hanging above King Xuanguang's head, spun around and fell with the shadows of a dragon and a tiger, continuing to cut towards King Xuanguang.
"Again!"
King Xuanguang let out a strange cry, reached out and grabbed a jade talisman, which appeared in his palm. He slammed it down on his feet, and a white mist mixed with hundreds of golden flowers shot upwards, rushing against the Ruyi Scissors.
The Ruyi Scissors suddenly stopped, having shredded hundreds of golden flowers, and could no longer fall.
Hu Le glanced at the jade talisman. Five-colored light flowed across its surface, and purple Daoist inscriptions appeared on it, emanating a purple aura. It was clear that this was an innate spiritual treasure.
"You wicked beast, you are quite fortunate to have obtained such a spiritual treasure for protection."
Hu Le's figure flickered, and he suddenly appeared in front of King Xuan Guang. He grabbed the Xuanhuang Qi Diagram, shook it open, and wrapped it around the jade talisman.
The jade talisman immediately shot out streaks of white mist, mixed with golden flowers, which resisted the encirclement of the Xuanhuang Yiqi Diagram.
The two magical treasures clashed back and forth, immediately engaging in a fierce battle that caused the surrounding seawater to surge and create raging storms across the vast ocean.
The jade talisman was entangled by the Xuanhuang Qi Diagram and could no longer protect King Xuanguang. When it looked up and saw the Ruyi Scissors falling again, it hurriedly dodged to the left.
Unexpectedly, a bright green bamboo cane swept across at that moment, striking him on the back and causing him to stumble.
"Fellow Daoist, please reveal your true form!"
Hu Le flicked his bamboo staff, and King Xuanguang was sent tumbling several times involuntarily, his head spinning.
Before he could regain his senses, he suddenly felt a weight on his back, which pressed him down onto the muddy seabed. He managed to turn his head and saw that Hu Le had already placed his feet on his back.
King Xuanguang strained to straighten his back, trying to push Hu Le down.
Unexpectedly, Hu Le's body suddenly became as heavy as a mountain, almost crushing him.
Hu Le chuckled. This beast still dared to resist. Did it really think that his tens of thousands of years of physical cultivation had been for nothing?
He reached out and the Ruyi Scissors fell into his palm. He did not release them again, but instead activated the scissors' killing intent, subtly locking onto the space between Xuan Guang's eyebrows, piercing straight into the Purple Mansion Spirit Platform.
A chill was already lingering around the primordial spirit of the Great King Xuanguang.
"Fellow Daoist, please reveal your true form immediately!" Hu Le shouted again.
King Xuanguang was unable to move and was locked onto by a sharp killing intent. Knowing that things had come to this point and he could no longer resist, he sighed inwardly.
"Never mind..."
He had no choice but to reveal his true form, transforming into a giant squid.
Hu Le traced a talisman in the air with his finger, then slapped it into the squid's body, sealing its primordial spirit. He then completely suppressed it and went to join the Great King Yuan Guang...
In the distance, the innate jade talisman, without its master's blessing, could no longer contend with the Xuanhuang Qi Diagram. It was quickly entangled by wisps of Xuanhuang Qi and disappeared into the Xuanhuang Qi Diagram in the blink of an eye.
Only then did he truly defeat King Xuanguang.
Although it seemed like he had gone through a lot of trouble, in reality, only a little over a hundred breaths had passed from the start of their battle to the suppression of the Xuan Guang King...
I wonder how the fight between those people upstairs is going?
Hu Le took his bamboo cane and parted the sea, then walked out leisurely and looked up into the distance.
A hundred miles away, Duobao and his friends were tumbling and fighting fiercely.
The fighting between the two sides' subordinates was still ongoing, with both sides experiencing victories and defeats. The scene was quite brutal, and the vast sea was almost dyed red...
As expected of King Hanguang, who possessed the cultivation level of Taiyi, he had already gained the upper hand in a short period of time despite being surrounded and attacked by Duobao and the others.
A precious cauldron hangs above the auspicious clouds, from which a white column of energy shoots out, swirling back and forth against the pagoda of many treasures.
Holding a precious flag in his left hand, the flag unfurled in the wind, condensing clusters of Primordial Yin Divine Thunder, which he then poured out like water towards the group, exploding with a thunderous roar, turning the vast void into a sea of lightning.
Duobao and the others also used all their skills and supernatural abilities, each summoning their own magical treasures.
Since Zhao Gongming and the others had not yet condensed the Three Flowers on their heads and achieved the Golden Immortal realm, the Shangqing Daoist did not bestow upon them any innate spiritual treasures.
The magical treasures they wielded were either crafted by themselves or obtained through exchanges with fellow disciples. Ultimately, their power was limited, barely enough to protect themselves, and it was impossible for them to defeat King Hanguang with them.
Hu Le wrapped the Xuanhuang Qi Diagram around himself, picked up his bamboo staff, and stepped into the battlefield. He parted the sea of lightning, stopped opposite King Hanguang, and asked with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, now that you are the only one left, do you still intend to resist?"
The King of Hanguang waved his banner, forcing the crowd back. He stood still and did not pursue them, but stared at Hu Le and asked, "Where are my two brothers?"
Hu Le smiled slightly: "Those two have already been suppressed by me. What do you intend to do now?"
"Hmph! They're just not as skilled as me, so what? But you, the mighty Eastern Divine Lord, wouldn't want to use them to threaten me, would you?" King Hanguang's face was cold, revealing no trace of his true thoughts.
Hu Le laughed heartily: "Fellow Daoist, you underestimate me. How could I do such a thing? With my methods, can't I just rightfully subdue you?!"
"Good! You are indeed worthy of being His Majesty Taiyi's disciple. I want to see how much of His Majesty's skill you have learned, daring to make such a boast."
King Hanguang flew over with his sword and went straight for Hu Le.
Hu Le waved his hand at Duobao, "You've all worked hard just now, step back and rest for a while, let me deal with this scoundrel!"
"Then you'd better be careful, brother!"
Duobao wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, gave a word of advice, put away the Duobao Pagoda, and led Zhao Gongming away into the distance.
Seeing that the King of Hanguang was about to thrust his sword, Hu Le waved his bamboo staff to deflect it, and then flicked his wrist to strike the King of Hanguang in the face.
King Hanguang dodged aside, turned around, and appeared behind Hu Le. His sword trembled, and he thrust it straight at Hu Le's back.
Hu Le did not turn around. He blocked the attack with his bamboo cane, took the opportunity to turn around, and with a slight flick of his left sleeve, the Tai Su Golden Pearl shot out.
King Hanguang hurriedly held the precious flag in front of him, and with a slight sway, brushed the Tai Su Golden Pearl aside, while sneering, "How could such a petty trick harm me!"
