Chapter 618: I'm Waiting for My Lifespan, What Are You Waiting For?

"Let me out!"

"I am the Sect Leader of the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect, I am Xue Yan! You damned White Dragons, I will exterminate your entire clan!"

In the empty space between the Jade Mountains, a piercing roar of fury echoed.

A disheveled young man pounded on the cell door with all his might. His handsome features were twisted into a hideous grimace, and his bright yellow robe was in complete disarray, a far cry from his usual dignified and domineering demeanor.

The young and proud leader of the North Flood's Boundless Dao Emperor Sect's branch, who was admired by countless people, had suffered a humiliating disgrace in the West Flood!

Once he got out, he would definitely report to the Sect Leader, no, he would report to the Immortal!

He would tell the Immortal that the East Dragon Palace had colluded with demons, and their sins were beyond redemption. Not only would he suppress these Purple Beard White Dragons, but he would also make sure that the young man in the ink-colored robe would have no place to be buried, only then could he vent the hatred in his heart!

At that moment, the Ten Thousand Li River and Mountain Map, both large and small, drifted towards them from above the waters like an unfurling scroll.

A majestic aura instantly enveloped the Jade Mountain waters.

"Xue Yan's aura is right here."

Accompanied by a group of disciples, four Sect Leaders descended.

They came in search of the missing Sect Leaders, following Lu Xiao's decree, only to find the destroyed West Dragon Palace.

Fortunately, with the guidance of a treasure, they had managed to track them down to Jade Mountain.

"I had a feeling something was amiss, but I never imagined it would be like this."

One of the Sect Leaders of the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect furrowed his brows. According to their understanding of the West and South Flood Dragon Palaces, even if they had a hundred times the courage, they would never dare to use the Dragon Seal to help the old man Zi Xuan accuse the Immortal.

However, they also never expected that after all these years of occupying the West Flood, the West Dragon Palace would be silently annihilated without a single word escaping.

What exactly happened in the West Flood was a mystery, but fortunately, Xue Yan was still alive, and he must know many things.

"Form the Ten Thousand Li Grand Array."

The four Sect Leaders stepped out of the Dao Palace, not daring to approach Jade Mountain casually. Instead, they had nearly a hundred disciples and elders form an array to control the nearby waters.

The intricate Ten Thousand Li River and Mountain Map slowly connected, and the tall mountains and long rivers emerged from the scroll, forming an impenetrable towering barrier around them.

"Save the people."

The four Sect Leaders exchanged glances, and the one with the highest cultivation in the Heaven Realm took the lead, summoning their Dao techniques together. A sea of golden light surged towards Jade Mountain.

"I'm here!"

Xue Yan sensed the familiar aura and instantly fell into a frenzy of joy.

He stood up in a near-crazed state and kicked the cell door again, producing a dull banging sound.

The golden light instantly shattered the cell door, enveloping the youngest Branch Sect Leader and carrying him outside Jade Mountain, landing beside the other Sect Leaders.

Before he could steady himself, he started cursing, "That despicable Zi Xian, colluding with demon cultivators, stole our sect's Greedy Wolf Star Chart and killed all of Yue Gonggui and the others. As the Crown Prince of the East Dragon Palace, Zi Yang sheltered his sister and the demon cultivators, trapping me here!"

"Quickly, follow me back to the North Flood and report to Sect Leader Lu!"

"..."

The Sect Leaders exchanged glances and reached out to support him. "The East Dragon Palace no longer exists in Hongze. Don't worry, take your time, and tell us, what demon cultivator was it?"

"Gone?"

Xue Yan was stunned for a moment, then he laughed hoarsely, "Good riddance! Good riddance! And that demon cultivator, don't let him escape. Quickly send word to the other Sect Leaders. I want to crush his bones and scatter his ashes with my own hands!"

The contemptuous attitude he had experienced still echoed in his mind.

Such disdain could only be repaid with one's life.

A mere rat, daring to hide in the shadows and cause trouble, would they dare to face the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect and speak?

Hearing this, the Sect Leaders' expressions turned cold, not because they were offended by Xue Yan's attitude, but because it was clear he had suffered humiliation, and with his youth and impetuous nature, it was understandable that he struggled to contain his emotions at this moment.

But in this place of Hongze, someone dared to lay a hand on the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect's possessions.

To put it bluntly, even if the Greedy Wolf Star Chart had been lost by the roadside, before anyone could pick it up, they would have to consider if their entire clan's lives were strong enough, let alone dare to snatch it.

"Calm down, first follow us back, and we'll get to the bottom of this. As long as that person is still in Hongze, their life is in the hands of our Boundless Dao Emperor Sect."

The eldest of the Sect Leaders spoke softly, then prepared to order the disciples and elders to disperse the array.

At that moment, he seemed to sense something and looked at Jade Mountain in confusion.

In an instant, everyone heard a faint sound of a door opening.

Creak.

On the peak of Jade Mountain, the vermillion doors of the secluded grand hall quietly opened.

A tall young man stood with his hands hanging by his sides, his robe sleeves fluttering, and his expression calm and unperturbed.

He took a gentle step, crossing the threshold.

Such a simple action caused the solid barrier formed by the mountains and rivers surrounding Jade Mountain to tremble violently. Rocks shattered, rivers dried up, and boulders rained down like a torrential downpour, crashing into the waters and creating terrifying waves.

[A scene of destruction unfolds as the barrier shatters and crumbles, leaving behind nothing but dust. Over a hundred cultivators from the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect, including renowned figures from the Dao Soldier Records, are shocked as they witness the sudden appearance of a familiar figure. Their faces turn red, blood spurts from their mouths, and even their Dao Infant's five viscera seem to be shaken apart.

"It's him! It's him!"

Xue Yan stumbles backward, having just shouted for the annihilation of the enemy, but upon seeing this familiar figure, his heart begins to race, and his voice trembles.

Several sect leaders look on gravely, grabbing Xue Yan and preparing to fly back to the Dao Palace.

It's no wonder this young Celestial Arrogance is enraged to such a mindless state.

In the small Western Flood, a powerful figure is hidden.

Their thoughts vary, but their actions are synchronized as they transform into golden flowing light.

"..."

Shen Yi walks calmly downhill, and as his boots touch the steps, several streams of light seem to be suppressed by the mountains, falling from the sky.

At the tip of his shoes, an invisible heart flame ripples, spreading like water waves.

Born from emotions, this flame scorches the soul, a specialty of the Azure Crane Xuanwei Clan.

But at this moment, the formless fire takes shape.

It roars into the sky, transforming into rolling white waves that engulf everything in sight.

Countless Ten Thousand Li River and Mountain Maps fill the sky, but before the white flames, the golden light shatters quickly, turning into real paper. It withers in the flame waves, leaving only scattered sparks falling like rain.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With each step, the Ink-Robed Youth causes the sect leaders to spit blood. The lowest in cultivation, Xue Yan, watches as Shen Yi descends the mountain, struggling to speak but feeling like drowning, gasping for breath.

His eyes bulge out of their sockets, blood flowing from his seven apertures, and soon his entire body is drenched in crimson.

As Shen Yi reaches the foot of the Jade Mountain:

The Ten Thousand Li River and Mountain Maps are completely incinerated, and no living beings remain in the surroundings. Only the cultivators' robes and blood-soaked mud cover the ground.

Shen Yi closes his eyes, and in the Ten Thousand Demon Southern Palace, over a dozen black mist-covered figures emerge from his brow, the lowest in cultivation being at the Earth Realm Perfection.

They stand like lifeless objects, silent even in their breathing.

On the muddy flesh and blood ground, surrounded by these terrifying creatures, the swaying figure of the Ink-Robed Youth takes on a sinister appearance.

"Huff."

Initially, gathering a palace's worth of suppressing stones seemed challenging, but after the Northern Flood emptied, Shen Yi finds the task much simpler.

The Boundless Dao Emperor Sect and the Northern Dragon Palace have many tasks, aiming to conquer the remaining three floods in this vast and boundless land and water.

However, Shen Yi has a different objective.

His focus is solely on finding the next batch of Demon Lifespan bodies.

Then, using these lifeless creatures, he will retrieve what he desires.

The suppressing stones are distributed across the three floods, like ever-vigilant eyes that illuminate the boundless land and water in Shen Yi's mind.

The Southern Palace is filled, and the third divine ability is nurtured—the heart flame that had taken shape earlier.

Late-stage Heaven Realm is achieved!

After a moment of quiet waiting, two streams of light approach from both sides of the sky.

Yue Tianji reveals himself, throwing seven or eight massive Black Dragons onto the ground! On the other side is Ke Shisan, whose terrifying Dragon Claw slightly opens, spilling out corpses from the storage bag. They form a small mountain of Disaster Horns on the ground, containing the entire Yue family.

The two exchange their spoils with perfect understanding, remaining silent as they glance at their master.

The three floods are now completely illuminated in Shen Yi's mind, and with the invisible suppressing stones and Ke Shisan's Half-step Dao Realm strength, choosing what to consume is as easy as ordering from a menu.

Shen Yi even has a better understanding of their military distribution than these Northern Flood beings.

As Shen Yi raises his palm, the corpses on both sides turn into rivers of blood, flowing into each other's bodies.

"Roar—"

Ke Shisan and Yue Tianji simultaneously grunt.

The former approaches the threshold, while the latter's aura rapidly surges!

"..."

In the Ten Thousand Demon Northern Palace, the sound of swallowing saliva echoes.

Ke Shisan slowly opens his eyes, feeling the impact of demon power on his bottleneck. At the same time, his master seems to pour Demon Lifespan origins into him without restraint, filling the void in his soul.

Pain and pleasure simultaneously assault his mind, twisting his expression, but a sinister smile appears on his lips: "Rest assured, we're all from the Southern Flood. How could I forget you?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Jun was taken aback and stopped swallowing his saliva.

Immediately, he heard Ke Shisan's whisper.

"There's an old tortoise beside the North Dragon Palace's commander... a Perfect Heaven Realm cultivation... After I finish my current task, I'll go and get it for you."

Before he could finish speaking, Wu Jun was already excitedly jumping up from his throne.

Currently, the master had nearly fifty Fusion Dao Realm demons guarding the Guardian Boulders. Who would dare to think that a Branch Palace Lord, sitting high in the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, would still be at the White Jade Capital cultivation level? It was embarrassing to even mention it!

It must be Xuanjian, who has always been concerned about me!

"Don't be moved. What dragon king doesn't have an old tortoise by their side? You're neither too tall nor too short, just right."

Ke Shisan teased, clearly satisfied with his realm advancement.

However, after absorbing the power of his entire clan and stepping into the Half-step Dao Realm, Yue Tianji couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Go."

Shen Yi gently waved his sleeves and then left alone towards the east.

Compared to the advancement of the Guardian Boulders...

In fact, from beginning to end, he only cared about one thing.

【Remaining Demon Lifespan: 13,720,000 years】

After countless days and nights of slaughter by the Guardian Boulders, it was finally...

Enough.

...

Western Flood, a certain marketplace.

Ji Jingxi looked exhausted, her eyes dim as she gazed at the ruins below. If she had arrived a step later, she would have seen nothing but crimson.

The Southern Seven Sects, located at the very edge of Hongze, were temporarily safe. Their sect leaders had already done their best to support the other Floods.

But individual strength eventually had its limits.

Facing the slaughter of the entire Northern Flood, no matter how brilliant her moonlight was, how could she possibly cover all three Floods?

Moreover, her Heaven Realm Intermediate cultivation was not considered top-notch in front of the Northern Flood's creatures. If she was unlucky and encountered a famous and powerful elder, she might not even be able to protect her own life.

In this situation, she couldn't help but start missing someone.

Ever since the Eastern Dragon Palace went crazy, no matter what happened to the Seven Sects, as long as that young man was there, there would never be any accidents.

However, Shen Yi said he was leaving, and he really left.

After several days, there was no news at all, as if he had suddenly disappeared from the land and waters of Hongze.

The only place Ji Jingxi could now hope for was that although Hongze was already in a state of chaos, the Northern Flood's advancement speed clearly did not match the grand display they had shown earlier.

Those two Dao Realm experts had not appeared until now.

She was well aware that it would be difficult for Shen Yi to accomplish these things, but for some reason, she really hoped that it was related to him.

After all, that would prove that this young man was still in Hongze, or at least, still alive.

Ji Jingxi calmed her mind and slowly clenched her five fingers.

A moonlight glow appeared out of thin air and began to gather, pointing directly at the demon soldiers below who were beginning to retreat in an orderly manner.

Even if she had arrived a step late, she still had to do something.

Just then, she suddenly lowered her gaze.

Accompanied by a deafening tiger's roar, a ferocious tiger's ethereal shadow suddenly covered the entire marketplace.

In the instant before the numerous demon soldiers could react, they all turned into dry bones.

There was not a hint of a powerful aura, only the most brutal, cruel, and straightforward method. This style of conduct made Ji Jingxi suddenly think of a long-silent power.

She stared blankly and indeed saw the petite figure she had met once before.

Still wearing a large dark golden robe.

But without the hood, a clean and tender little face was revealed.

"Heh."

Ji Jingxi couldn't imagine that beneath such a fierce and terrifying name, there was such a face that evoked tenderness.

The stark contrast made her subconsciously exclaim, "Who exactly are you, Ten Thousand Demon Hall?"

What kind of power was this that could turn such an innocent girl into such a terrifying figure?

The petite girl originally didn't want to respond.

She knew her master was in a hurry, and she also knew this was a life-or-death battle.

But after glancing at Ji Jingxi, due to this person's identity, she reached out and collected all the demon corpses, turned into a black flowing light, and flew towards the sky, leaving behind a simple sentence.

"Western Palace Lord, An Yi."

"..."

Ji Jingxi stood blankly in her original spot. So, all these strange things had nothing to do with Shen Yi.

Among the remaining three Floods, there was truly a power that could rival the Northern Flood.

And it was not borrowing external forces, but independently stopping that terrifying display for the time being!

Ten Thousand Demon Hall!

Why would they do these things? Could it really be because of that initial statement?

They wanted the Western Flood.

So even when facing an immortal, their attitude would not change in the slightest?!

There was such a domineering power in Hongze... Thinking of this, Ji Jingxi suddenly felt a bit suffocated.

Could they really do it?
