Mutated Tao

The bamboo shoots had impaled Li Huowang, leaving him completely motionless. He could feel them continuously growing within his body.

Suddenly, Bai Lingmiao appeared beside him. The Second Deity cut the bamboo poles in half with her black fingernails.

Xuan Pin also intervened, quickly waving his tentacles. He drew a single red line across the middle of Li Huowang's face.

He used four of his arms and pulled Li Huowang apart, splitting him in two without waiting for him to say anything.

Xuan Pin quickly removed the bamboo shoots that were still growing inside Li Huowang. Once he did, he glued him back as if nothing had happened.

With just a single swing of his arm, the blood-red line that bisected Li Huowang was utterly gone.

Xuan Pin pulled Li Huowang away from the front lines to create as much distance as possible from Zuoqiu Yong, minimizing the influence of the Heavenly Dao of Growth.

Everything happened within a few breaths. In that brief span of time, Li Huowang freed himself from the bamboo shoots and recovered from his wounds.

Even though he was safe for now, Li Huowang was far from happy as he looked at the mountain-sized Zuoqiu Yong.

Their enemy was too strong this time. He felt pressured, finding it hard to breathe. He knew his chances of winning were slim.

Despite that, he refused to give up. Zuoqiu Yong wanted to kill Bai Lingmiao, and Li Sui was already gone. Now, Bai Lingmiao was all he had.

After quickly looking at the Siming of Growth in front of him, Li Huowang realized that he had to rely on the strength of the other Simings to win this.

“Xuan Pin! Xuan Pin! Tell me, is Suisui really dead?”

“Yes. How many times must I tell you that your daughter is dead?”

This time, Li Huowang chose to accept those words wholeheartedly. He tore open his body again and spread coarse salt into his body cavity as he raised both hands upwards to summon Ba-Hui.

When he accepted that Li Sui would never return, his facial features merged as he shouted in despair. He felt as if one million burning needles had pierced his heart.

He pushed both hands into his mouth and tore off his tongue with his bare hands, spraying blood everywhere.

He then slammed his tongue onto the glowing Profound Records.

The moment Li Huowang’s tongue touched the Profound Records, it came alive.

“A tongue to turn the wheel of reincarnation! An eyelash for the boundless universe! Words cannot describe the intricacies of the realm! The sinister Heavens reveal what was hidden! My Master, the highest authority! Who dares disturb it?!”

When the chant was completed, Li Huowang’s five senses superimposed on each other. The pain from his physical flesh and mental anguish turned into something else.

Li Huowang exuded an overwhelming air of despair, one that did not stem from the mortal realms.

Everything around Li Huowang creaked and bent as something spread out with him as the center. It was pain, extremely intense pain.

The Cang-Qiong Ascension allowed Li Huowang to temporarily wield the Heavenly Dao of Pain. The plants growing on Li Huowang’s body howled in pain and tried to distance themselves from him.

Any immobile living beings caught by the Cang-Qiong Ascension tried to kill themselves due to the overwhelming pain. Death seemed a better option than enduring their torment.

He looked at Zuoqiu Yong in the distance and raised his head in pain, meeting the gaze that was staring back at him from the heavens.

“Ba-Hui, come down… Come down and help! I was the one who saved Baiyu Capital last time! All of you owe me!”

Just as Li Huowang spoke, the gaze disappeared. Ba-Hui had only temporarily given him the Heavenly Dao of Pain. It did not want to help.

“Shit!”

Li Huowang did not want to give up. He felt the massive amount of False Qi in his body and tried to use it to summon Doulao.

To defeat Zuoqiu Yong, he had to call down a Siming no matter what.

Zuoqiu Yong moved before Li Huowang could finish his chant. As he did, many mini Zuoqiu Yongs sprouted from his body and burrowed into the ground.

The more Zuoqiu Yong's clones burrowed into the ground, the more control he held over the world. He was gradually turning the ground itself into his flesh.

The mountain-like foot stepped down. Li Huowang’s chanting voice and an entire mountain range disappeared.

Zuoqiu Yong thought he had won. However, he suddenly felt an intense pain coming from the base of his legs.

It was as if he had stepped on a needle rather than a person. The pain began to creep upward, affecting his calves.

Despite the bone-breaking pain, Zuoqiu Yong remained relaxed. “Hahaha, Li Huowang~ Are you that weak? You’re done now.”

Numerous bone spikes grew on Zuoqiu Yong, traveling downwards before stabbing Li Huowang, who was currently embedded inside his flesh.

However, Li Huowang was still performing the Cang-Qiong Ascension. He could not die. He did his best to push his physical pain into Zuoqiu Yong.

The Cang-Qiong Ascension, which had been extremely strong in the past, had become useless. Zuoqiu Yong’s body was too large, and Li Huowang had too little pain.

Li Huowang used his cultivation to turn everything within several Li into seawater.

Li Huowang quickly grew scales and fins to swim away from Zuoqiu Yong.

Li Huowang escaped and stood atop a mountain, but Zuoqiu Yong did not chase after him. Instead, he looked at him like a cat toying with a mouse.

“Little brat. You are slippery and hard to catch. Don’t worry, I will deal with you later. Just wait.

“I know you don’t fear death, and you will never yield even if I kill you. Unfortunately, I know what you care about the most. I shall show you the consequences of your transgressions!”

Zuoqiu Yong’s massive left palm slammed down and caught Bai Lingmiao. Bone spikes grew inside his fleshy arm, impaling Bai Lingmiao.

Bai Lingmiao and the Second Deity were impaled, their limbs, heads, and organs all pierced through.
