Chapter 149: Leave It to Me_3
The heart raced during this extreme dodge.
"This Innate Divine Demon wants to exhaust me to death unless I leave first..."
Once the distance is extended, he has a way to deal with this yellow-red Qi.
But...
While dodging, Wang Ba's peripheral vision caught sight of the World Eaters beginning to fly in all directions afar, and his mood sank to the bottom.
Once he retreats here, it will be like a river bursting its banks, irreparable.
In his eyes, a hint of resolution flashed.
In life until now, he has retreated too many times and endured too often.
But this time, he no longer wants to retreat or endure.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt something:
"Hm? It gave up?"
The yellow-red Qi pursuing him stopped for some unknown reason, then bizarrely flashed upward toward the Sky Dome.
In the next instant, he suddenly sensed something.
Instinctively, he raised his head.
In the distance in the sky.
A green whirlwind, somewhat familiar, like a blooming green lotus, collided straight with the yellow-red Qi!
The yellow-red Qi, capable of decapitating Class V World Eaters as smokes and hairs, suddenly hesitated.
"Ride the Wind Six Methods?!"
Wang Ba nearly blurted out.
But the next moment, his heart was struck with astonishment.
Ride the Wind Six Methods is the secret skill of Shenxiu Peak, the essence attainable by personal disciples within the peak.
However, the green wind before him encompasses cold, heat, slow, rapid, wet, and evil Six Methods, perfectly melded, seemingly ordinary yet innovatively different, surpassing all Shenxiu Peak disciples he knows.
Even he feels a sense of refreshing realization upon observing it!
This is the wisdom of life, utterly different from the insights and understanding from Heaven and Earth.
Such mastery, even the former Tianyuan Hall Master, Lv Zhuangmei...
Wait!
Could it be...
Wang Ba's heart was shocked.
The dragon-headed and human-bodied Innate Divine Demon suddenly flew into a rage, emitting an angry roar of unclear meaning.
Nearly half of them, the World Eaters who hadn't spread out, suddenly turned direction, like a flow of World Eaters, rushing toward where the green wind came.
From the distance came a burst of wild laughter.
In the next instant, a purple lightning fast to an unimaginable degree swept from the horizon!
Then the purple lightning flashed rapidly into hundreds and thousands of brilliant purple points among the World Eater stream!
Like a burst of purple fireworks!
Bright, splendid, nearly dream-like!
In Wang Ba's shocked gaze, the once mighty flow of World Eaters was fragmented and dispersed in a short time.
At the same time, the distant green wind passed directly through the yellow-red Qi and swept over a large number of World Eaters enveloped by the purple lightning.
Whoosh—
A gust of wind swept by.
Among them, most Class IV and Class V World Eaters vanished like ash blown away.
Wang Ba's expression carried a trace of envy.
The combination of Wind and Thunder, unexpectedly terrifying.
With his Skyfall Blade infused with Cold Nether Stone, combined with Yellow Dao Domain, a simplified version of the Dragon Elephant Dao Soldier may barely reach such level, but solely on the Path of Wind and Thunder, he fell short before them.
"The Ride the Wind Six Methods from Shenxiu Peak have appeared, and the Dragon-Tiger Yuankan Method from Tianji Peak also appeared..."
Gazing up at the Sky Dome, Wang Ba felt both amazed and delighted, already faintly guessing, eyes revealing expectation.
As the sweep of Wind and Thunder passed.
This more than half of the World Eaters vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving only a few hundred heads of Class V, Class VI World Eaters confused.
The dragon-headed and human-bodied Innate Divine Demon finally realized its oversight.
"Kill!"
It bypassed the World Eaters in front, and the dragon claw reached for the purple lightning!
But just as it bypassed the World Eaters, a distant figure finally spotted its flaw!
Clang!
A rapidly condensed, sharply fast arrow shot straight towards its brow!
Even among Void Refining or Class VI, it was a terrifying force.
The dragon-headed Demon instantly stood its hairs on end!
The scales on its body flipped over.
It was about to dodge with all its might.
But in the next moment, a vast and boundless pure white hand, so immense that even the patterns on its palm were clear, suddenly dropped from the sky, pressing down on the dragon-headed demon!
Even though the dragon-headed demon's Dao Domain surged, shaking the hand almost to the point of losing its grip, for a time it still couldn't overturn!
Struggling amidst!
Twelve or more Class II and Class III Dao Domains successively overlapped and descended!
In an instant, it was as if a mountain was pressing down.
Thunk!
An arrow shot through, piercing through the dragon-headed demon's forehead in response!
In an instant, all struggling vanished completely.
In the eyes of this dragon-headed demon, there was nothing but a bewildered look.
The large hand released, and the massive form of the dragon-headed demon fell straight down.
The tragic death of this dragon-headed demon surprisingly elicited mournful wailing from all the surrounding World Eaters, who flocked down in swarms, crowding around its corpse.
At the same time.
Swish, swish, swish!
Twelve or more figures, amidst Wang Ba's shocked, joyful, complex, and suddenly enlightened gaze, were supported by a wisp of green cyclone, and floated down instantaneously from afar.
Revealing the figures among them.
Leading them was a middle-aged man clad in a purple Daoist robe with Eight Diagrams, his long beard flowing, and his face vigorous.
He looked at Wang Ba, lightly stroked his beard, and chuckled softly.
With a hint of the affection, admiration, and equal respect an elder feels for a junior, his voice was gentle and tranquil, carrying a touch of kindness and sympathy, as he slowly spoke:
"Child, it's been hard on you these years."
Hearing these words, Wang Ba suddenly stood still.
Behind the middle-aged man.
The great elder Yan Wenzheng, carrying a quiver, the third elder Ren Xiao with purple electric light swirling, Tianyuan Hall Master Lv Zhuangmei, Fei Hua, Xi Kui...
These familiar or unfamiliar figures, at this moment, were all smiling at him.
Without any disguise.
It was the heartfelt relief and joy of elders watching juniors finally mature, a genuine delight in knowing there's a worthy successor, fulfilling expectations.
Wang Ba gazed at the figures before him in a daze.
For some reason, the painstaking effort and careful planning of hundreds of years seemed not so gloomy at this moment...
No one knew what kind of pressure he was carrying in his heart while persistently building a Taoist Field and then confronting the Great Calamity after the sky changed.
He never wanted to be a solitary immortal, nor did he want to walk the long road of immortality alone.
But the occurrence of the sky's change shattered all his fantasies directly.
It made him realize that even a powerful sect couldn't protect him or those he cherished under external pressure and heavenly disaster.
Ever since seeing Master Yao Wudi ascend in the Ice Daoist's memory, he had never understood more clearly how important strength truly is.
So he tried every means to become strong, never wanting such things to happen again.
He was close to failing, but it didn't matter.
Because his teachers... have finally returned.
Wang Ba opened his mouth, countless words rose to his heart, a mix of joy and sorrow, yet he ultimately didn't know how to express it, feeling a blend of emotions, he just deeply bowed to the people before him:
"Disciple, welcomes Sect Master Shao back."
"Disciple, welcomes Grandmaster Yan, Grandmaster Ren, Grandmaster Lv..."
Yet his voice suddenly stopped.
His gaze swept over these twelve or more individuals, but one person he most wanted to see was missing.
"Sect Master Shao, my Master, he..."
Before the words could be finished.
Bam!
The massive black copper staff that fell into the sea burst out from the deep sea, sending up countless waves!
Suddenly, the dragon-headed demon's corpse falling into the seawater below opened its eyes wide!
Its neck rapidly grew, the original human form quickly elongated.
With a flip, it suddenly transformed into an enormous, elongated four-clawed evil dragon, swimming in the sky, causing clouds and rain!
Its eyes glowed with intense rage, surveying everyone:
"You all... seek death!"
Wang Ba's face darkened, ready to wield the Skyfall Blade in his hand.
But Shao Yangzi gently stopped him.
Wang Ba paused in surprise, looking at Shao Yangzi.
He heard him speak with a gentle and calming expression:
"Rest now, leave all of this to us."
