Chapter 37: I Beg the Seven Seniors to Act

On the city wall of Eight Dragons Cloud City, Primordial Dao Ancestor watched the battlefield, his heart burning with anxiety. He immediately spotted the area where Ji Ning and Xia Huang were trapped in a dire situation. After all, the variable 'Evergreen Sword Immortal' had launched a surprise attack there, causing a small-scale collapse on Primordial Dominion's side. Fortunately, Xia Huang and Ji Ning fought desperately to hold the line, stabilizing the situation, but the circumstances had become extremely perilous.

No choice. A large group of Celestial God puppets from the Outcast Door had appeared across the entire battlefield. Other areas also needed support. Primordial Dao Ancestor watched the battlefield; in the distance, the divine archer 'Dongzhe's arrows were like death warrants, each shot killing two or three White-Faced Flood Dragons, Zhuyan, and other demonic beasts.

He could only choose to abandon Xiamang's side.

Let Dongzhe suppress the other areas. Primordial Dao Ancestor knew he had to make a choice.

If the divine archer Dongzhe suppressed the entire battlefield, because the disadvantage at Ji Ning and Xia Huang's position was too obvious, even with some help they would likely remain at a disadvantage. In other areas, if Dongzhe's help was insufficient, they might only achieve a stalemate.

And now.

With Dongzhe going berserk, although Ji Ning's side suffered terribly, the other seventy percent of the area was gaining the upper hand in the short term! The main reason was Dongzhe's terrifying arrows. But both Primordial Dao Ancestor and Ink Bamboo Dao Ancestor knew that such terrifying arrows consumed Chaos Dao Fruits—one Chaos Dao Fruit could only release two arrows. Such狂暴 power could not last long. So they had to kill as much as possible in a short time!

Xiamang, over there, you can only rely on yourselves. Primordial Dao Ancestor hardened his heart. Having experienced the ancient war of destruction, he understood that sometimes sacrifices had to be made for the greater good.

Evergreen!!!

Primordial Dao Ancestor stared at the distant Evergreen Sword Immortal, his eyes flashing coldly, his face turning livid.

Disgrace!

He had been deceived too badly.

He had trusted Evergreen Sword Immortal too much before, never imagining Evergreen could be a spy. The main reason was that Evergreen Sword Immortal never gathered friends, was even quite reclusive, and single-mindedly pursued the Dao. Evergreen had lived in seclusion in a minor world, cultivating for endless ages... One could pretend for a while, but pretending for a lifetime was difficult.

And Evergreen Sword Immortal's forbearance was terrifying. Primordial Dao Ancestor had even admired Evergreen before, thinking that with his single-minded pursuit of the Dao, among many disciples, he was most likely to become a Dao Ancestor.

This Evergreen is single-minded in pursuing the Dao, without distraction. I absolutely did not misjudge him. Yet he killed Xuewu without any hesitation, not even a flicker of doubt in his eyes, and after killing her, he directly destroyed her corpse. His heart is truly ruthless. I did not misjudge—this person is indeed extremely threatening. Primordial Dao Ancestor knew that such a decisive and vicious person could achieve astonishing things in the future.

Achievement has nothing to do with good or evil.

The stronger the Dao heart, the easier it is to go further.

True villains, even when committing evil, do not consider it evil. Their Dao heart is utterly pure, which can be terrifying. Even the tribulation of the heart has no effect on them. Such 'born demons' are very rare. He, Primordial Dao Ancestor, had not seen through it before.

...

On the battlefield.

At Ji Ning and Xia Huang's side.

Evergreen. Ji Ning was furious.

The general attack order came. The three demon gods of Tunlong Mountain, who had been dealing with them, temporarily stopped attacking and began to form a formation.

Taking advantage of the three demon gods forming their formation, the furious Ji Ning charged directly toward Evergreen Sword Immortal.

Get out of the way.

Ji Ning swung his arms.

Boom boom boom—the Celestial God puppets that entangled him were thrown backward, flying away. The gap in strength was too great.

Tie him down!

Tie him down! A Bi Fang beast, commanded by a Celestial God True Immortal from the Outcast Door, pounced. The beast resembled a crane, entirely cyan, bathed in flames, its fiery wings flapping. It had only one claw, but that claw was enormous and black. As the Bi Fang flew over, its claw grabbed directly through the air.

Ji Ning suddenly reached out with both hands.

Whoosh.

He forcibly grabbed that claw. The Bi Fang beast abruptly produced a black wing, which slapped down directly at Ji Ning's head.

Die.

Ji Ning, holding the claw with both hands, smashed it toward a nearby White-Faced Flood Dragon. As for the slapping black wing, Ji Ning gritted his teeth and endured it. At this moment, his heartforce and soul techniques were fully unleashed. Now, his heartforce and soul techniques were nearly at minor accomplishment, and his strength had improved significantly.

This caused the vast world force of his Punishment Heaven body to be continuously mobilized, making his body tougher and stronger.

Boom boom boom—the black wing struck Ji Ning's body, leaving only some wounds.

How has his strength... the Bi Fang beast was shocked.

Boom!

The Bi Fang beast was smashed into a White-Faced Flood Dragon, which was knocked flying backward. Then Ji Ning grabbed the Bi Fang beast with one hand, while a sharp longsword appeared in his other hand. He grasped the sword and stabbed fiercely at the Bi Fang beast.

Pfft! Pfft!

Two lightning-fast thrusts pierced the Bi Fang beast's body, causing it to begin collapsing. Numerous Celestial Immortals and Loose Immortals fled, especially a Pure Yang True Immortal who escaped in panic.

Die. Ji Ning produced two huge shields with both hands, holding them and suddenly clapping them together toward the Pure Yang True Immortal ahead!

Boom!

The shield faces collided, crushing countless Celestial Immortals and Loose Immortals. The Pure Yang True Immortal, while using escape techniques, manipulated his magic treasures to resist desperately. But Ji Ning's power was now fully unleashed. With his heartforce and soul techniques, which he had hidden for so long, now nearly at minor accomplishment, the explosive power was terrifying.

How can... the Pure Yang True Immortal felt a force like a whirlwind knock away his magic treasure, and then boom, he was crushed into a meat patty by the two mountain-like shields, turning to ash.

Kill him.

Kill this Ji Ning.

In the distance, the three demon gods of Tunlong Mountain had transformed into the 'Three-Eyed Demon God'.

They were also enraged.

They hadn't expected that in the short time they stopped attacking to form the formation, Ji Ning had annihilated a Bi Fang immortal army, and even killed a Pure Yang True Immortal. They only blamed the dead Pure Yang True Immortal for being too careless, but didn't realize that Ji Ning, seeing Evergreen's betrayal and knowing the situation was dire, had fully erupted.

The power of Punishment Heaven Ji Ning had increased several times again.

If the Tunlong Great Sage 'Nine-Headed Lion' came to fight Ji Ning head-on again, he would probably lose even worse.

Kill. The Three-Eyed Demon God charged at Ji Ning.

Hold him off!

Tie him down!

The Celestial Immortals and Yinglongs all fought desperately.

Ji Ning knew he couldn't waste time slaughtering. He immediately turned and charged toward the Three-Eyed Demon God. On the way, Ji Ning kicked a Zhuyan. Boom, the Zhuyan flew backward and exploded directly.

Die.

Chains, black dragons, golden light, snowflakes, vines and branches, strange runes—various spells and magic treasures all landed on the Three-Eyed Demon God.

But the Three-Eyed Demon God's momentum remained overwhelming. He ignored these obstacles; his eyes were only on Ji Ning.

Kill Evergreen!

Kill the traitor!

Kill him!

The other Yinglongs and Punishment Heavens were also frenzied, risking their own lives without regard.

Evergreen Sword Immortal, taking advantage of the breach he had created earlier, led the Outcast Door army to kill one Yinglong, two Pangu Battle Formations, and six Punishment Heavens in succession. Then, seeing the situation turn unfavorable, he began to flee toward the Three-Eyed Demon God.

...

Although Ji Ning's side fought desperately, the Three-Eyed Demon God's advantage was still too great. After all, the Outcast Door had also sent Celestial God True Immortals and armies. After Evergreen Sword Immortal's sabotage, more Outcast Door forces could assist the Three-Eyed Demon God.

This battle, the Outcast Door will surely win.

Evergreen Sword Immortal, who had fled behind the Three-Eyed Demon God, directly said, I think you should surrender to our Outcast Door and save your lives.

Traitor, I swear I will kill you. Xia Huang's eyes were red.

Villain.

Wretch.

All the Celestial God True Immortals of Primordial Dominion were furious. Being stabbed in the back by a trusted comrade at a critical moment—who wouldn't be angry? And the beloved junior sister Xuewu had been killed—how could they not be enraged?

Boom—

The most ferocious Punishment Heaven Ji Ning finally clashed with the Three-Eyed Demon God.

Boom!

Ji Ning, who had been cautious and holding his shields, was sent flying backward.

The gap is too great. Ji Ning understood in an instant. The rumors are true—the Three-Eyed Demon God's power has reached the threshold of a Dao Ancestor.

The three demon gods themselves were each extraordinarily powerful.

The Three-Eyed Demon God formed by their union had a qualitative change in power, crossing into the threshold of a Dao Ancestor. Perhaps compared to Dongzhe's arrows powered by Chaos Dao Fruits, it was slightly inferior, but it was definitely Dao Ancestor-level power, far beyond what Ji Ning could contend with.

...

Quickly kill Ji Ning. Ink Bamboo Dao Ancestor on the distant Outcast City wall transmitted to the three demon gods of Tunlong Mountain. Ignore everything else for now; eliminate Ji Ning.

...

Eliminate Ji Ning. The God King's voice also echoed in the minds of the three demon gods.

...

Rest assured. The Three-Eyed Demon God's momentum was overwhelming. His three eyes were fixed entirely on the flying Punishment Heaven Ji Ning. He strode forward, and no spells or magic treasures could stop his advance. At this moment, the Three-Eyed Demon God had only one thought—kill Ji Ning!

...

The Water Mansion.

The calm Red Snow Celestial God, the child-like Yuan Guang Celestial God with fierce eyes, and Snow Scorpion Celestial God, Jiushe Celestial God, Jiuyu Celestial God, Lieyang Celestial God, Xuan Yue Celestial God all watched the battle scene. The yellow-furred bear used his own detection of the outside world to display the battle scene in midair.

They saw the Three-Eyed Demon God form.

They also saw Punishment Heaven Ji Ning clash with the Three-Eyed Demon God and be sent flying in an instant.

Those three little brats from Tunlong Mountain, who were once just a joke, have become this strong. Red Snow Celestial God's eyes blazed with battle intent.

We've been gone too long, so some powerful fellows have naturally appeared. But the Three Realms has almost forgotten the might of our Plucking Star Mansion. The bald old man Jiuyu Celestial God squinted, his eyes flashing coldly.

Meanwhile, Ji Ning's true body, dressed in animal skins, bowed respectfully and said, I beg the seven seniors to act.
