Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 642 - 456 Phoenix Princess!

"Yaoqin, how do you feel?"

Beneath the forest cabin, Qinglu Great Saint asked Shang Yaoqin with a gentle smile, his eyes squinted.

Shang Yaoqin reluctantly tore her gaze away from the light screen projected by the record stone.

Traces of shock still lingered on her face.

Just moments ago, Shang Yaoqin had finished observing the entire battle between Tang Tianlong and Hong Yuan.

And not just once, nor twice, nor even three times…

She realized that Hong Yuan's strength far exceeded her imagination.

At the very least, she would have to push her cultivation to the advanced stage of the fifth rank to have enough confidence to contend with Hong Yuan. Only by reaching the peak of the fifth rank could she confidently say she could firmly surpass him.

But she is a Great Dream Seed, and Hong Yuan is merely of common birth!

In that instant, Shang Yaoqin was profoundly shaken, her perspective broadened.

The Martial World is truly teeming with geniuses!

After a while, a radiant smile appeared on Shang Yaoqin's face.

After all, no matter how one put it, Hong Yuan was part of the Sect Alliance, a powerful ally in her struggle for the Human Race Destiny.

The stronger Hong Yuan became, the more it benefited her.

Not to mention, Hong Yuan had now captured Tang Tianlong for her, saving her an immense amount of painstaking effort!

"HEE HEE, when Hong Yuan takes action, it's naturally an effortless capture. If I were to deal with Tang Tianlong, I'd still fall short of him," Shang Yaoqin said in a sweet, soft voice. "Master Qinglu, you may not know this, but I've long understood that Hong Yuan is extraordinary. I just never imagined he would be this formidable. No wonder Zhu Yin holds him in such high regard!"

When Ye Zhuyin was mentioned, Shang Yaoqin showed a rare hint of girlish tenderness and affection.

Her relationship with Ye Zhuyin could be described as being as close as mother and daughter.

Hearing her words, Qinglu Great Saint nodded slightly and then mentioned the arrangements for 1:00 AM tonight.

Tonight at 1:00 AM, Hong Yuan would escort Tang Tianlong to their old meeting place.

Shang Yaoqin, too, was eagerly anticipating seizing the Dream Tao Mystery and the Human Tao fortune from Tang Tianlong.

By then, she would undergo earth-shaking changes. Catching up with Hua Menghuang, who had already taken a significant lead, would definitely not be a big problem!

「Luopo Valley.」

A Soul Tao Heaven Earth Secret Realm.

The Soul Killing Demon Emperor, who had achieved emperorship through the Soul Tao, had once highly praised it: "In this world, there are two Holy Lands for cultivators of the Soul Tao—Soul Cleansing Mountain to temper souls, and Luopo Valley to refine souls."

At this moment, Great Dream Seed Xiao Yuan stood bare-chested. He grew increasingly silent after viewing the battle footage between Hong Yuan and Tang Tianlong.

Under the watchful eyes of Saints from the Soul Killing lineage, such as Li Shenyu, Xiao Yuan didn't utter a word.

He walked with heavy steps, braving the soul-scouring cold wind, heading deep into Luopo Valley.

Legend had it that the Soul Killing Demon Emperor, in an attempt to counter the True Dragon of Great Moon's immense Life Span and achieve eternal life, tried to create the Killing Tao.

Although the Demon Emperor did not succeed in his ultimate goal, he did master three great Killing Tao Divine Powers: "Martial Soul Killing Body," "Double Killing Martial Spirit," and "Killing the Body and Become Benevolent."

There was an even more profound and unsettling rumor: the Demon Emperor had created a Killing Tao Divine Power so forbidden it was simply known as "Devouring Soul Kill"!

After slaying a target, using this "Devouring Soul Kill" allowed one to directly plunder the victim's entire Martial Arts Creation and Tao Marks. It was considered the most demonic of demonic arts, an affront to heavenly harmony and a perversion of human ethics.

However, the consequences of using this demonic art were extremely severe: the user would gradually lose their sense of self, eventually transforming into a Soul Beast that knew only slaughter...

The rumors about the three great Killing Tao Divine Powers were true, and so was the rumor of "Devouring Soul Kill."

They were all inscribed in the deepest part of Luopo Valley!

Now, Xiao Yuan was scheming to acquire these Killing Tao Divine Powers, especially "Devouring Soul Kill."

"Yuan'er increasingly embodies the spirit of our primogenitor."

"HMPH! The Destiny of Great Dreams can only belong to Yuan'er."

"That's right. The grudge between our Soul Killing lineage and the True Dragon of Great Moon lineage should be settled once and for all!"

...

The Saints of the Soul Killing lineage watched Xiao Yuan's retreating figure, their confidence soaring.

However, Li Shenyu, Xiao Yuan's master, who was at the forefront, was filled with worry. Thoughts of "Bo Qing" and Hua Menghuang flooded her mind.

Even if Shang Yaoqin seems to have taken an early lead, Li Shenyu still believed, among all the Great Dream Seeds, Hua Menghuang remains the greatest threat to Xiao Yuan!

「At this time.」

"Bo Qing" and Hua Menghuang, the very individuals Li Shenyu had just been pondering, were patiently analyzing the battle between Hong Yuan and Tang Tianlong.

Most intriguingly, Hua Menghuang seemed unconcerned with Tang Tianlong, who was also a Great Dream Seed. Instead, she showed great interest in Hong Yuan.

Gazing at the image of Hong Yuan in his white robes on the water screen, Hua Menghuang's eyes were filled with a potent battle intent.

Her attitude caused the nearby "Bo Qing"—who was, in fact, Hong Yuan—to feel an unusual sense of wonder.

How do I teach my disciple to defeat another version of myself?

What a perplexing conundrum.

"Worm Array Fusion!"

"Dream Tao Desolate Beast!"

"Phoenix Creek Treasure Skill!"

"Interesting, very interesting! The world is truly full of heroes!" Hua Menghuang exclaimed.

She gripped the cold sword in her hand tightly, her spine as straight as a spear. A torrent of sword radiance erupted from her body, instantly splitting the heavy dark clouds above, revealing the sun's face and showering sunlight back onto the earth.

Her dramatic posture made Hong Yuan (Bo Qing) inwardly cringe.

Like teacher, like student, I suppose, he thought.

My Original Body's approach is to lie low whenever possible, adhering to the strategy of 'bide your time, then shock the world with a single feat.'

But my Sword Body operates on the principle of 'no restraints, utterly decisive in slaughter'—a style Hua Menghuang has apparently mastered ninety-nine percent.
