Chapter 4074: Taoism Demonstrates Its Power

"Good fortune smiles upon us today; we shall feast well," said the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast, as its long, thick dragon tail lashed out towards Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

With its powerful physical body, it had no fear of mid-grade immortal artifacts. Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and the Azure Underworld Boat immediately glowed with a brilliant azure light, vanishing from its spot and evading the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's attack. Wang Ruyan took out a jade flute, its blue light constantly shifting, and placed it to her lips. A joyful flute melody then resounded.

Waves of blue sound swept out, heading straight for the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast. At the same time, Wang Changsheng formed another hand seal, and a vast quantity of blue water droplets emerged in the void, transforming into giant blue fists that streaked across the sky like meteors, striking towards the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast. A white halo emanated from Wang Changsheng's body; wherever it passed, the sea and the void froze—the Law of Ice. The ice spread rapidly, and the sea surface within a hundred thousand *li* quickly froze, with the ice continuing to expand.

The blue sound waves passed through the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's body, leaving it unharmed. The dense blue fist shadows struck its body one after another, but to no avail. "Law of Soul! What a pity it's only at the mid-Golden Immortal stage," the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast exclaimed in surprise, its body trembling slightly. It then shook its head and tail, pouncing towards Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

Wang Changsheng's right fist erupted with dazzling blue light, and he threw a punch. The void twisted, warped, and tore open, as a giant blue fist flew out, carrying a destructive force, meeting the attack head-on.

The Seven-Colored Chaos Beast waved its massive dragon claws and swatted at the giant blue fist. With a thunderous roar, it shattered the giant blue fist, and its long, thick tail lashed out at Wang Changsheng once more. Wang Changsheng frowned. Even the Fusion Aperture Technique strike couldn't gravely injure the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast; its physical body was truly that powerful.

He formed a hand seal, causing the seawater to churn and surge, raising a colossal wave hundreds of thousands of feet high that crashed towards the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast. The Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's body glowed with dazzling seven-colored spiritual light, and it met the wave with both claws.

With a thunderous roar, the colossal wave shattered into countless blue seawater droplets. A wisp of blue mist emerged above the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's head, taking on Wang Changsheng's appearance. His fists glowed with six different spiritual lights, emanating six distinct law fluctuations, as he struck the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's head.

With a dull thud, Wang Changsheng felt his fists strike a wall of bronze and iron. The Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's body merely trembled slightly, and its long, thick dragon tail shot out, slamming into Wang Changsheng. Wang Changsheng was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, his face flushed crimson as he spat out a mouthful of vital blood. His eyes were filled with dread; it truly was a Seven-Colored Chaos Beast, far stronger than a Six-Colored Chaos Beast.

The minor completion of the Law of Soul wasn't enough to easily inflict heavy damage on the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast. If it had been a Six-Colored Chaos Beast, it would have been severely injured long ago. This Seven-Colored Chaos Beast was clearly not a mutated Chaos Beast; it had not mastered any laws and possessed no weapons.

Six different colored spiritual lights erupted from Wang Ruyan's right hand, emitting six surges of law fluctuations. She clapped towards the void, and a giant blue palm, covered in arcane musical notes, flew out and struck the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast.

Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and the Azure Underworld Boat once again flared with a dazzling azure light, avoiding the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's attack. The giant blue palm struck the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's body with a dull thud. The Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's tone was filled with surprise: "You also wield the Law of Soul! Today marks your demise." "It's not certain whose demise it will be!"

A chillingly cold male voice rang out. The clear sky instantly darkened, and the sound of turbulent waves erupted.

A cracking sound of bones emanated from Wang Changsheng's body as his figure rapidly expanded to a hundred *zhang* tall. With every movement, he exuded a powerful aura that looked down upon the heavens and earth. He raised his right hand, and three Sea-Calming Orbs flew out, quickly expanding into three gigantic, blue-glowing orbs that slammed towards the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast like three towering peaks.

Given the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's formidable physical body, even mid-grade immortal artifacts specializing in soul attacks couldn't severely injure it. However, it had no intention of taking the blow head-on. The Seven-Colored Chaos Beast shook its head and tail, preparing to evade.

A colossal hand, its blue light constantly shifting, appeared out of thin air. Like "fishing for the moon at the bottom of the sea," it swiftly seized the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's body.

The Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's massive body twisted incessantly, while dazzling seven-colored spiritual light burst forth from its surface. The colossal hand instantly disintegrated. At that moment, the three giant blue orbs also arrived before the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast, striking its body one after another.

The Seven-Colored Chaos Beast let out a shriek, flying backward and crashing heavily onto the ice, which shattered into numerous cracks. Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and the three giant blue orbs flew up. A massive pit appeared on the ice, and a significant portion of the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's body had been reduced to a bloody pulp; it was dead.

Wang Ruyan conjured a blue-glowing jade bottle and collected the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast's soul. Wang Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. If he hadn't mastered a Dao art, this encounter would truly have been perilous.

His body quickly shrank, and the three giant blue orbs returned to their original size, flying back into his sleeve. They landed in front of the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast and found the bodies of Huoyaozi and the other person in its abdomen, along with two storage bracelets.

They picked up the storage bracelets and gently flicked their wrists. After a flash of radiant light, many items appeared on the ground. There were four mid-grade immortal artifacts, over a hundred thousand Immortal Essence Stones, and more than a thousand Chaos Beast crystal nuclei. Most were from True Immortal stage Chaos Beasts, with only two being Five-Colored Chaos Beast crystal nuclei from the Golden Immortal stage. That was all.

In addition, there were some artifact refining materials, alchemy materials, and jade slips. The most precious item was a map, which Wang Changsheng carefully examined and confirmed to be a map to the Nine-Star Immortal Realm. He had no idea where Huoyaozi had obtained it.

They meticulously checked the contents of all the jade slips but found nothing significant. Huoyaozi and the other person were merely rogue cultivators whose cultivation techniques only allowed them to reach the grand completion of the Golden Immortal stage. Even for late-Golden Immortal cultivators, crossing the sea to the Nine-Star Immortal Realm was extremely risky; Huoyaozi served as a cautionary tale.

They wondered if they would encounter a Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage Chaos Beast; even with his mastery of Dao arts, Wang Changsheng would be no match.

Wang Tungtian and the others returned. Seeing the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast on the ice, their faces were filled with shock. "There's actually a Seven-Colored Chaos Beast!" Wang Tungtian exclaimed in surprise.

"Continue your exploration!" Wang Changsheng instructed, putting away the items on the ground.

Wang Tungtian and the others acknowledged, returning to the island to continue their investigation. After most of the day, they returned to the Azure Underworld Boat. There were no ancient cultivator dwelling, grotto-heavens, or secret realms on the island, but they did find and collect some immortal herbs that were hundreds of thousands of years old.

"Wife, you can pilot the Azure Underworld Boat! I'll try to refine some mid-grade Immortal Exterminating Arrows," Wang Changsheng said, and walked towards the azure pavilion.
