Chapter 1963: Gong Zhen

The Tree of Sky was rooted above the ruins of Shenfutuo City. When the heavenly fire passed, it also swept across the sky beyond Siling Mountain.

Even so, Yaozu, whose mind was solely focused on Yuegongli, seemed not to have noticed the subtle changes in the Sacred Palace on Siling Mountain.

A Sacred Palace formation, as thin as a water membrane, was hidden by smoke and mist, creating a safe zone from obstructed views, protecting all living beings on Siling Mountain.

Open attacks are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are hard to guard against. The existence of the mad dog tormented even the Ancestral God, making them want to go mad.

"Yuegongli, do you truly intend to go against me?!"

Yaozu was furious, still in a tug-of-war with Yuegongli over the power of life.

He snatched some back, but the Technique Seed, by its very nature, absorbed the remaining parts.

He forcibly plundered the power of life back to the Art of Sky, but Yuegongli was not stubborn, absorbing as much as he could.

Given Yaozu's ability and the weakness of the Technique Seed, plus the fact that the power of life inherently belonged to him,

Soon, Yaozu recovered most of the massive power of life that the Technique Seed had initially failed to devour.

After a back-and-forth struggle, in no time, the massive power stored in Shenfutuo City was divided by the two Ancestors, seven-three.

Yaozu received seven, and Yuegongli's Technique Seed absorbed three.

"Splendid! Splendid!"

Yuegongli laughed heartily, his face radiant and full of vigor.

Even though he only received three, his own state had sublimated to the extreme, and the Technique Seed was much fuller than before.

A single "technique dog" feast accidentally destroyed one of Yaozu's backup plans. Seeing how that guy wished he could flay him, Yuegongli almost clapped his hands in delight.

The only pity was that if this body were his own, Yuegongli would definitely strike again, forcing Yaozu to expose more.

No matter what, this "seven-three split" should have been reversed.

But this body belonged to Cuiyin!

No matter how much he gained, it would ultimately be for Cuiyin's benefit.

Thinking of this, Yuegongli couldn't help but feel a little disheartened. His time was running out, and if he wanted to do more for his sister, merely angering one Yaozu was far from enough.

"Weaken Yaozu, as much as possible."

"But we can't over-nourish Cuiyin because of this, lest Yaozu weaken and Cuiyin grow stronger, leaving the situation unchanged."

"And after Yao and Cui, there's another guy hiding, completely unmoving so far..."

Yuegongli appeared to be mad, but after deciding to stand with his sister, his thoughts had become extremely clear.

Although he had been stationed in Han Palace Emperor Realm before and didn't want to get involved, he knew that the current situation was a three-way split between Mo, Yao, and Cui.

There was also Mozu...

After a brief thought, a decision was made.

Within the Ghost Buddha Realm, Yuegongli looked frantic, laughing wildly, and using the enemy's own methods against them, he shouted:

"Shennong Baicao, do you dare to oppose me?"

Yaozu was outwardly fierce but inwardly timid, making a lot of noise but not daring to act recklessly.

As for this "mad dog" with not much time left, what was there to fear?

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuegongli tightened the Cuiyin seal in his hand again, a sinister smile growing on his lips:

"Let me see clearly, you hiding life rat, where exactly are you?"

"Forbidden - Outer Appearance Dharmic Eye!"

With a word, the law was obeyed. Yuegongli was truly reckless, striking as soon as he spoke, without even the most basic respect for an Ancestral God.

At that moment, a purple pupil split open between his eyebrows, and behind him, a massive purple eye appeared.

Cuiyin's Eye!

That hundreds-of-zhang-large purple eyeball was unusually terrifying.

As soon as it appeared, it was full of spiritual energy, its eyeball rolling left and right, shooting out illusory purple light that swept across the Five Domains.

Every cultivator swept by the purple light felt as if their underwear had been seen through, and their pores bristled.

In their ears, they could still hear Yuegongli's mad laughter and low murmurs:

"Come, come!"

"Demons and ghosts, quickly reveal yourselves!"

"Damn it."

Yaozu truly didn't want to waste energy on this mad dog.

But he also truly couldn't allow him to find his next life pool and then steal or destroy it.

With the "Thousand Bodies Chaotic Life Art" activated, the power of life was evenly spread, subtly veiled by the Heavenly Dao to interfere with scrying.

No matter how strong Cuiyin's Outer Appearance Dharmic Eye was, it couldn't find his true body and backup plans in a short time.

At this point, Yaozu realized that his chess moves were in disarray.

"I shouldn't have coveted the Dao of Thought..."

Kuilaihan's "Dao of Thought" that penetrated the gods was, of course, very powerful, and his combat strength was unparalleled. Who wouldn't covet it?

The key was that this guy also cultivated the Sacred Dao of Spirit Refinement, making it difficult to escape Mozu's control; at some point, he was bound to stumble.

If he truly took Kuilaihan, he could, of course, influence Mozu and even counter him later.

This was beneficial for the overall plan!

But precisely because he was delayed by Kuilaihan, Cuiyin underwent a change, throwing out the mad dog Yuegongli.

Not only did he forcefully suppress Nianzu, but he also wanted to continue causing trouble.

This Technique Seed, which should have become the World Tree of the new Heavenly Realm, could no longer be allowed to act so recklessly.

"Cuiyin, you cannot escape my grasp..."

In Beiming Emperor Realm, the Great Age Huai swayed rustlingly, and the human face on its canopy hardened:

"Do you really think the power of life can be plundered at will?"

"However much you ate, you must spit it back out to me!"

Above the ruins of Shenfutuo City, the Tree of Sky, which had provisionally plundered seven-tenths of the power from the pool, chose to reveal its hand.

The massive tree rooted in the void summoned the heavenly fire from the Ghost Buddha Realm, sacrificing all the life power in the pool.

Immediately afterward, even the Tree of Sky itself began to self-immolate, as if going for a mutual destruction.

"Life Seed Sacrifices the Dao!"

"Quick, quick, come out, reveal yourself!"

The Outer Appearance Dharmic Eye searched everywhere, not only the Five Domains but also the Five Great Sacred Emperor Secret Realms, Void Island, Divine Ruins, and so on.

However, when tracing the Dao of Life with the Dao of Technique, every living being and every location seen showed the power of life spread extremely evenly.

Each seemed like Yaozu's backup, yet also felt like it wasn't.

Of course, in reality, the Outer Appearance Dharmic Eye was looking for more than just Yaozu.

The Eastern Domain was normal; the Buried Sword Tomb and the Ancestral Tree Agave were all normal, with only the faint influence left by the reincarnated Sword Ancestor.

The Southern Domain was normal; the Southern Domain was originally Cuiyin's main base, the place where the Technique Ancestor rose.

Even though Cuiyin had revived in the Divine Ruins for so many years, when Mozu and Yaozu planned, they would subconsciously focus on the other four domains, avoiding the Southern Domain.

At least, they wouldn't be foolish enough to place a life pool under the enemy's nose.

In the Northern Domain War God Heaven, the time rift had been destroyed, but what was this chain? Rooted in the Northern Domain's land, it connected to...

Jianlou?

Good, good, that's interesting!

The Western Domain's great desert, what's going on here?

This "Slaughter Sword" appears to be an object of the Sword Ancestor, but why is it full of residual Mozu influence?

Good, good, that's also interesting!

Heting Mountain was normal, and Siling Mountain was also normal. However, the stone hall in Han Palace Emperor Realm, father...

As expected, has he been possessed?

At the crossroads, the Inverted Buddha Pagoda...

Shenyi, is he trapped?

Wait, this woman, is she using the Dao of Spirit Formation or the Art of Heavenly Secrets?

"Can't find it! Can't find it!"

The more Yuegongli searched, the more anxious he became, his voice growing louder, and his expression becoming more possessed.

The cultivators of the Five Domains watched from afar, seeing signs of impending madness.

"How can it not be found!"

Suddenly, Ancestor Li reached out and summoned something, roaring hysterically:

"Then I'll just shoot randomly!"

With a buzzing sound, space cracked open, and the power of evil sin surged out.

With this grab, the mighty power of the Dao of Technique forcefully struck into the Apricot Realm, landing in front of the four great ancestral trees, seemingly to pull something.

The next moment, the Evil Sin Bow, which had once radiated brilliant light in the hands of Emperor Cangsheng and then disappeared half a year ago, fell directly into Yuegongli's hand.

"Evil Sin Bow?"

Exclamations arose throughout the Five Domains. This thing...

That's right, didn't the Evil Sin Bow fall into the hands of Grandfather Shou?

Yuegongli took it like this, and Grandfather Shou just released the Evil Sin Bow, without any obstruction?

Or was it that Grandfather Shou also didn't want to provoke the mad Ancestor Li?

And also, how could Yuegongli wield the Evil Sin Bow, and how could the Evil Sin Bow obey his summons?

"It's Cuiyin!"

With a flash of thought, everyone suddenly remembered.

Before the Evil Sin Bow became the hallmark of Emperor Cangsheng, it seemed to have been the weapon of the Technique Ancestor, Cuiyin, and matched with it were the Blood World Pearl, Blood Tree, and so on!

The bow was in hand, the string drawn to a full moon.

Yuegongli's aura suddenly changed, becoming incredibly sharp, as if his fierce malevolence finally found an outlet.

Forbidden - Technique Seed Transformation!

The Technique Seed leaped, appearing above Yuegongli's head like an Ancestral God's fate.

Cuiyin's evil qi gathered on the Evil Sin Bow, condensing into a black evil god arrow with nine layers of phantoms.

"Forbidden - Nine Li Arrow!"

Yuegongli curled his lips, loosened his hand, and the ancient, heart-stopping sound of the bowstring vibrated once more throughout the Five Domains.

Boom!!!

Fluid and without delay.

Yuegongli truly demonstrated what it meant to be reckless!

And this long-absent sound of the Evil Sin Bow not only exploded in their ears but also stirred many people's memories.

"It's so similar..."

This scene, how similar was it to Emperor Cangsheng drawing his bow and arrow in the past?

However, the "Love for All Beings" of that time, even when pseudo-ancestralized in the Second World, could not shoot the final brilliance.

Yuegongli, however, using Cuiyin's power and in the posture of an Ancestral God, continued the previous string. This arrow seemed to be aimed at the Heavenly Ladder above?

"Swish, swish, swish..."

The first arrow flew, followed by the rest.

One turned into nine, chasing stars and pursuing the moon.

Those nine black arrows instantly pierced the ethereal heavens, broke through the fragmented flow of time, and with an extremely sharp offensive, struck the Beiming Emperor Realm.

"Shash..."

In Beiming Emperor Realm, sand drifted.

As the arrow's tip reached the boundary, the Great Age Huai rose up. Its canopy flourished, and its branches protected the entire vast Beiming Emperor Realm under its shade.

However, how could the ultimate offensive of the Technique Seed Transformation be withstood by a mere Ancestral Tree?

"Boom, boom, boom..."

In the blink of an eye, the first three Nine Li Arrows shattered the protective layer of the Great Age Huai.

The next three arrows pierced through the canopy, causing the Great Age Huai's aura to wither, leaving its canopy riddled with holes.

The final three arrows struck simultaneously and exploded in the void, mountains, and rivers of Beiming Emperor Realm.

"Boom!"

Beiming Emperor Realm was almost completely razed.

The vast numbers of small Bei Huai trees scattered across the mountains and plains couldn't even let out a scream in their final moments, being directly obliterated.

The Sacred Emperor Secret Realm, with all its Dao Laws, almost completely collapsed.

Fortunately, the power of life surged out in time, and the Great Age Huai straightened itself, thus protecting Beiming Emperor Realm from being exploded by the nine arrows.

"Swish!"

The Huai branches converged, completely enveloping Beiming Emperor Realm, leaving no gaps.

Yaozu, having been struck by this arrow, didn't throw another tantrum. On the contrary, he seemed to have hidden himself?

"Hahahaha!"

"Refreshing! Refreshing! A toast is in order!"

Yuegongli enjoyed the shooting. This arrow, shot from the Holy God Continent to the Beiming Emperor Realm, directly hit Yaozu in the face.

Attack maximized!

Speed maximized!

Taunt maximized!

A surging feeling of exhilaration made Yuegongli suddenly realize how happy Ai Cangsheng must have been back then.

Turns out...

It's this satisfying?!

What a pity, without the Eye of the Great Dao to assist him.

Otherwise, Yaozu would have nowhere to hide. Whether above or below, wherever his gaze fell, all clones, all backup plans, would be shot to pieces!

"Again!"

"Haha, again!"

The Evil Sin Bow in his hand flipped, forming a full moon once more.

As soon as the previous arrow was released, a huge black hole had been blasted out in the sky above the Ghost Buddha Realm due to the powerful recoil.

The Dao Chains of the Ancient War God Stage manifested, showing faint signs of collapse, but Yuegongli couldn't care less.

Just reckless!

Just satisfying!

"Forbidden - Eight Directions Falling..."

This time, before the Cuiyin power within him could be fully drawn, Yuegongli suddenly shuddered.

"Pfft!"

Opening his mouth, he spewed blood.

He saw that within the Technique Seed, the power of life suddenly surged.

This was not the power of life previously plundered and digested from the "pool" causing trouble, but rather the Technique Seed itself, showing life patterns.

"A-oh!"

How intelligent was Yuegongli?

After reacting, he felt good and began to gloat.

Turns out, not only was he himself trapped in this situation and helpless, but Cuiyin's Technique Seed itself truly had Yaozu's influence!

However, a moment later.

"Ugh, ugh, ugh..."

Yuegongli suddenly began to convulse violently.

On the Technique Seed, roots and sprouts emerged. Sharp, thorn-like roots brutally pierced and embedded themselves into his skull.

"A-a-a-ah—"

Blood flowed all over his head. Yuegongli's eyeballs protruded in pain, bloodshot, and his face was covered in bulging veins.

The terrifying suction force from the Technique Seed, or rather, the Life Seed, treated him and Cuiyin's lifelong power as soil and nutrients, attempting to make the Technique Seed break out of its shell and grow robustly into a tree, a World Tree.

When did this happen?

"A-Li..."

Outside Nanli Realm, Yuegongnu cried out in tears.

The mad Yuegongli was breaking her heart.

A-Li was such an intelligent person, how could he act so recklessly, so madly?

Only when truly in an irreversible, desperate situation would he erupt with such disregard for consequences!

And being rooted in the skull by the Technique Seed, constantly having life force drawn, was even more unbearable to watch.

Only those closest to them knew each other's most private and ridiculous weaknesses.

Yuegongnu knew that her brother disliked external conflicts and only sought stability. Besides his temperament, there was a very important point.

"He, he's afraid of pain..."

Yuegongnu clenched Yu Zhiwen's fair wrist tightly, unaware, gazing at the desolate scene in the distant sky, tears streaming down like hail, "He's very afraid of pain, he's very afraid of pain. No, he can't be like this..."

"Hahahaha!"

But in the distant sky, where was there any sign of "fear"?

After a brief convulsion, Yuegongli, with a grotesque face due to the roots piercing his flesh, laughed wildly, still trying to lift the Evil Sin Bow.

His vision was dim, blurred by blood.

In a trance, Yuegongli barely managed to turn his head and finally saw the source of the power.

He saw that at the ruins of Shenfutuo City, the Tree of Sky had somehow ignited. In the brilliant flames, the inverted canopy outlined a human face full of resentment and mockery.

"Yuegongli, your ridiculous drama ends here."
