Chapter 4196: Murong Yilong Stokes the Fire

"The power of the Law of Destruction is so strong!" Cao Yufeng exclaimed in surprise, her gaze fixed on Murong Yilong. Murong Yilong looked dispirited and showed signs of pain.

"Our Taibai Sword Sect has only a handful of Golden Immortals who have mastered the Law of Destruction. It's a close branch of the Law of Yin-Yang, so its immense destructive power is perfectly normal." The young woman in the yellow dress said with a proud look, her eyes then resting on Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan, a puzzled expression on her face. Both were peak True Spirits, yet Murong Yilong, a Grand Completion Golden Immortal, was injured, while the Green Lotus Immortal Couple seemed unharmed.

"I am Xu Hong, and this is my wife, Song Yun," the young man in red announced. He then took out three seven-colored crystal cores and distributed them to Wang Changsheng and the other two.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan had easily withstood Xu Hong's attack, which surprised him. That was why he introduced himself; had all three of them been injured, they wouldn't have warranted an introduction. In the cultivation world, strength is paramount; the strong are respected everywhere.

Song Yun took out three golden jade boxes and handed them to Wang Changsheng and the two others. She said, "These are Golden Lemon Pills. They will help with your injuries; the destructive power of the Law of Destruction is very strong."

In her opinion, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan had used some secret technique to dispel most of the Law of Destruction's power, merely enduring it. It might be fine for a short while, but it would be hard to say about the long term. They had encountered such people before, those who suffered for the sake of appearances.

Wang Changsheng and the two others thanked them and accepted the Golden Lemon Pills.

"Fairy Cao, Fellow Daoist Wang, Madam Wang, Fellow Daoist Murong, we have other matters to attend to, so we'll take our leave now. We hope to meet again someday." After Xu Hong finished speaking, he conjured a red-glowing flying boat and stepped onto it, with Song Yun following close behind.

Xu Hong performed a hand seal. The red flying boat emitted a dazzling red light, soared into the sky, and quickly vanished from sight.

The four of them, including Wang Changsheng, exchanged glances. It seemed that Xu Hong and Song Yun had specifically sought them out for a spar.

"They already sought out Ning Ting of the Five Immortal Sect. Ning Ting also sustained injuries after taking three moves from Madam Xu," Cao Yufeng explained.

Xu Hong and Song Yun traveled around, seeking Golden Immortal experts for sparring. Only Golden Immortal cultivators who had cultivated to become peak True Spirits could pique their interest. Even Golden Immortal cultivators who had cultivated a Law to Grand Completion couldn't catch their eye, as the Law of Destruction was too powerful, and non-peak True Spirits could easily be killed by it.

"I never expected Fellow Daoist Wang to comprehend the Law of Yin-Yang and cultivate it to Grand Completion. With your cultivation speed, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call you a prodigy," Murong Yilong said meaningfully.

"We obtained a few Grade 2 Dao Pills in the Qiankun Ruins, and after consuming them, I was fortunate enough to cultivate my Law to Grand Completion," Wang Changsheng explained. This explanation was quite reasonable.

"Alright, let's go back!" Cao Yufeng said.

Upon returning to Yunlang City, they all went their separate ways.

After Murong Yilong returned to Chiyan City, he immediately entered a secret chamber. He took out a golden Immortal Transmission Mirror and activated a magic seal.

A moment later, the mirror surface brightened considerably, revealing Xu Qian's face.

"Any significant discoveries?" Xu Qian asked.

"Core disciples from the Taibai Sword Sect, Xu Hong and Song Yun, who are both Grand Completion Golden Immortals, have been active in the jurisdiction of Tianfeng City." Murong Yilong reported the day's events to Xu Qian.

"Taibai Sword Sect! Law of Destruction! Law of Yin-Yang! It seems True Master Taihao obtained many good things in the Qiankun Ruins."

"Hmph, they must have stolen them from me!" Murong Yilong snorted coldly, seething with anger. He suspected that the items Wang Yingjie had seized included Grade 2 Dao Pills, which were opportunities that rightfully belonged to the Murong family.

"The information you reported is very important. Come to the Hulan Mountain Range! I'll reward you with some cultivation resources. In the future, if you make any significant discoveries, report them immediately."

"Go to the Hulan Mountain Range?" Murong Yilong showed a hesitant expression. If he were discovered, the consequences would be dire.

"What? Are you afraid your identity will be exposed? Just go secretly to the Hulan Mountain Range. Even if you're discovered, you can say you were searching for cultivation resources. Be careful, and there shouldn't be any major issues."

"What kind of reward? Grade 2 Dao Pills?" Murong Yilong asked.

"The information you reported isn't that crucial; how could I give you Grade 2 Dao Pills? I can give you resources to open the seventh aperture." Murong Yilong had already opened his seventh aperture, but other Golden Immortals in the Murong family might not have.

Murong Yilong felt a little disappointed. After a brief hesitation, he said, "I'll go a bit later! I'm injured, and it wouldn't be good if other Golden Immortal cultivators discovered me going to the Hulan Mountain Range right now."

"Alright! Let me know when you're about to set off, so I can make preparations in advance." Xu Qian agreed.

"Fairy Xu, True Master Taihao and the Wang family pose a significant threat to you. If you allow them to grow, they will definitely become a big problem. If a chaotic beast tide erupts, send over a dozen mutated seven-colored chaotic beasts to attack Green Lotus City, eliminate the Green Lotus Immortal Couple, and nip the threat in the bud." Murong Yilong suggested, wanting to use others to achieve his goal.

"Do you think it's that easy to advance to Grand Unity Golden Immortal? Even if they did, a Grand Completion Law wouldn't be enough to handle Grand Unity Golden Immortal chaotic beasts." Xu Qian dismissed his idea.

"What if they mastered the Law of Soul?" Murong Yilong's expression turned solemn.

Chaotic beasts didn't pay much attention to immortals who mastered ordinary or special Laws. However, they greatly feared immortals who mastered Supreme Laws, especially the Law of Soul. Despite their power, their souls were their greatest weakness.

Soul-type immortal artifacts, talismans specializing in soul damage, and immortal medicines for soul injuries were all powerful tools for immortals to combat chaotic beasts. To strengthen their souls, chaotic beasts could only consume soul-enhancing immortal pills and medicines. However, these types of immortal pills and medicines were relatively precious and could not be widely propagated.

"What? The Law of Soul? Do you have proof?" Xu Qian said with a frown.

"No, but Li Canghai mastered the Soul Extinguishing Finger, which is a unique divine ability from the *Heavenly Soul Tome*. Before Li Canghai disappeared, he was very close to the Wang family, so it's not impossible that the Wang family obtained the *Heavenly Soul Tome*. There's a high probability they have comprehended the Law of Soul," Murong Yilong analyzed. He indeed had no concrete evidence, but he preferred to be safe rather than sorry. What if True Master Taihao really did master the Law of Soul?

Xu Qian's brows furrowed deeply as she asked, "Where is Li Canghai now? These are all just your conjectures."

"Li Canghai has already disappeared. I suspect the Wang family silenced him. Indeed, these are my conjectures, and I do wish to borrow your strength to eliminate the Wang family. As I said, the Green Lotus Immortal Couple might have mastered the Law of Soul. As for whether you believe it or not, that's up to you," Murong Yilong said.

"Don't mention this matter to anyone else. I will report it, and if it turns out to be true, you will have performed a great service," Xu Qian instructed.

"Understood." Murong Yilong agreed and put away the Immortal Transmission Mirror.

"If the chaotic beasts make a move, let's see how you'll deal with it." Murong Yilong's face showed a ruthless expression.
