This scene shocked everyone, but they quickly understood her meaning: she was willing to live and die alongside Nazha and Xiaolongnu…
Faced with Yuwen Yingying's choice, the ascetic monk was deeply moved. This was an emotion he, as a monk, could not comprehend. Perhaps human emotions were the direction he should seek to understand, rather than resorting to crooked methods like using relics...
But it's too late to say anything now; he's already a dying man and has no chance to try this kind of cultivation...
"Anyone who stands in my way today will die..."
At this moment, the ascetic monk no longer resembled a monk; the murderous intent emanating from his eyes was terrifying...
His hand was already pressing down on the three of them. Since you've all chosen to die, then die...
This was the ascetic monk's true thought at that moment. He wanted to end the battle here as soon as possible because he could sense that the battle outside was nearing its end and could end at any time. No matter who won, they would appear by Li Zhu's side immediately. At that time, with his dying body, he would be no match for either side...
Just as his hand was about to strike the three men, a golden dragon suddenly burst forth from Li Zhu's body, repelling the ascetic monk's attack. A black dragon followed closely behind, heading straight for the ascetic monk's chest...
Faced with the sudden attack, the ascetic was terrified, knowing he had missed his best opportunity. But for some reason, he felt a sense of relief, realizing he had ultimately avoided committing murder…
Naza and the other two immediately realized what was happening, their eyes lighting up with surprise as they looked at Li Zhu, who was still lying there. They gazed expectantly at him, waiting for him to wake up…
"Now that you've woken up, why are you still lying there?"
The ascetic monk looked at Li Zhu on the bed with a puzzled expression and asked!
"What does this old monk know? I am the crown prince; when I wake up, I need my lover's kiss..."
After saying that, Li Zhu shamelessly pouted, leaving Nazha and the other two speechless. They couldn't understand his twisted logic. They even had a feeling that it would be better to let this scumbag pass out, so he wouldn't bully them as soon as he woke up...
The first to break down was Yuwen Yingying. She abandoned her reserved demeanor as a lady of high society and boldly kissed Li Zhu…
This immediately brought a smile to Li Zhu's face. Nazha and Xiaolongnu could only kiss him helplessly in the end, after all, the situation was critical and they needed him to wake up quickly to stabilize the situation...
However, this scene made the ascetic monk's mouth twitch. He had been practicing asceticism for a hundred years and this was the first time he had been so speechless. No matter what, he was a monk. Was it appropriate for them to show affection in front of him like this?
Li Zhu opened his eyes and slowly sat up. Above his head, two dragons danced, one golden and one black…
“I can sense your life force; you are not far from death. Why do something so damaging to your reputation? Wouldn’t it be better to quietly await death and become a virtuous monk?”
Li Zhu looked at the ascetic monk and questioned him!
"Greed, anger, and ignorance are weaknesses that no one can shake off, and I am no exception. I only regret that I realized this too late, otherwise I might not have lost to the Dragon King..."
The ascetic monk calmly said, his hands clasped together.
"If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening. You are too attached to appearances, senior..."
Li Zhu replied calmly.
The ascetic's eyes lit up. Li Zhu's words had awakened him; indeed, he had been too attached to appearances, otherwise he wouldn't have acted this way today...
This sudden realization brought the ascetic a sense of relief. He glanced gratefully at Li Zhu, then sat down cross-legged. Life and death are just a formality; why be so attached to them?
The enlightened ascetic slowly dissipated his life force, clasping his hands together with a satisfied expression. As he breathed his last, his body emitted a faint golden light, becoming an incorruptible golden body…
Li Zhu watched the ascetic monk pass away in meditation, feeling a pang of sadness. This was also a sign of the monk's trust in him. He knew that the ascetic monk chose to pass away in front of him for two reasons: first, he wanted to use his golden body to help Li Zhu improve his strength, hoping that Li Zhu could also have an epiphany, thus repaying the kindness of Li Zhu in enlightening him; second, he wanted Li Zhu to send the ascetic monk's golden body back to the Liao Kingdom...
"Don't worry, I promise you..."
Li Zhu sighed and made his promise. The ascetic monk's golden body suddenly flashed with golden light, as if in response to Li Zhu's words...
Only then did Li Zhu have time to look at the battle outside the tent. He sensed a familiar aura—the aura of a demon god…
Isn't the demon god in his spiritual world? How come there's another demon god outside?
Li Zhu suddenly realized that the demon god within him had been transported back in time, and that a demon god should have existed in this era all along…
The demon god before him was undoubtedly the demon god of this era. After the Miao people suffered losses at his hands, they turned around and awakened the demon god that already existed in this era. He just didn't understand how the other party had managed to do it...
But none of that matters anymore; what matters is that he must stop the demon god of this era…
There must have been some kind of special connection between the two demon gods, which is why the demon god within him suddenly broke free of its seal in an attempt to avoid this crisis…
The demon god of this era must have sensed the presence of the demon god within him, which is why this scene is unfolding before our eyes…
Having figured all this out, he understood why the demon within him had yielded; after all, being devoured by another demon meant he would cease to exist…
Li Zhu rushed towards Master Xuantian. The aura emanating from the other party made him tremble with fear. He hadn't expected that the master had been hiding his strength. If he had unleashed such power earlier, the three members of the Heavenly Dao Alliance would probably be in hell by now...
Upon arriving beside Daoist Xuantian, and seeing the other's ethereal and otherworldly demeanor, Li Zhu, for some inexplicable reason, blurted out in a rather childish and affected manner, "..."
"The flying dragon soars in the sky..."
The next moment, a golden dragon soared into the sky, passing directly through the cyan light barrier of Master Xuantian, and collided with the face formed by black clouds...
boom!
The dark clouds dispersed and began to churn, and the golden dragon, in its collision, transformed into a shower of golden rain...
"You all deserve to die..."
An angry voice echoed once more from the dark clouds, and the next moment, the black clouds within the Heavenly Dragon pressed down...
Seeing that his attacks seemed to have little effect, Li Zhu was somewhat dejected, but then he remembered that the Nine Cauldrons seemed to be able to suppress demons and gods, so he decided to summon the Nine Cauldrons...
Then, Li Zhu pointed a single finger to the sky, silently chanting the name of the Jizhou Cauldron. As the dark clouds churned, a massive cauldron appeared above them, forming a pincer movement with the azure light barrier…
Seeing that it was no match for the enemy, the dark cloud roared angrily, revealing its deep resentment, and then disappeared into the distance in the next moment...
