[Large Chapter] Subjugation

Above the outer reaches of the illusion.

Liu Hanzhen and Tantai You were trapped in the thin cloud space.

Thin clouds surrounded them, making it impossible to distinguish east from west, left from right, heaven from earth, or even locate the other six teams.

Liu Hanzhen's white eyebrows furrowed slightly as he said:

"Strange, the spatial arrays and illusions here are even more bizarre than what the Dao Alliance investigated before... It seems the enemy is intentionally cutting us off from contact with the other teams."

Tantai You stood respectfully behind him.

"Because you are the strongest."

Liu Hanzhen was slightly taken aback and turned to look at the powerful young man.

He was only a few hundred years old when he was able to kill more than a hundred experts from the Four Great Families. Given time, he will definitely become stronger than him.

If he follows the right path, he will soon replace him Slayer of the Wraith King.

"So you're someone who likes flattery?"

Tantai You smiled and said, "Senior doesn't understand me."

Liu Hanzhen stopped caring about the younger generation and instead used his strength to activate the communication ring on his right hand.

"Junior Brother Wen, I can't locate the other teams here. Could you take a look for me?"

Wen Yushu thought Liu Hanzhen had some special plan, but he didn't expect that he had just gotten lost.

"Senior Brother Liu, you are still on the outermost edge."

"What about the rest?"

"Lingzhou Yue disciples were the first to enter the Inner Sea."

"The Inner Sea is dangerous. How did you navigate? Our general cannot be lost in the Inner Sea!"

"They were under an illusion and fell into a vortex."

"What about the rest?"

"The rest of them planned to bypass the Inner Sea and take shortcuts from various directions to go directly to the underground cave."

As he said this, Wen Yushu added:

"By the way, the Xuan Yuan Family's team has gone missing and lost contact with them."

Without thinking, Liu Hanzhen blurted out:

"It seems that following them is the fastest way to find the dragon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tantai You looked up and pointed to an unremarkable spot on the top of his head.

"Senior, look here, isn't there a loophole in the formation?"

"Um?"

Liu Hanzhen was slightly surprised. He had clearly checked this place just now and found nothing unusual.

Why did a strange, half-open crevice suddenly appear?...

Inner Sea.

An island a dozen miles east of the Sword Ship.

Above the beach, Xiao Ran brandished his sword to fight a dragon! This was no dragon, it was practically a white streak in the waves, stirring up wind and rain.

The dragon's body, covered in golden light, was as thick as a human, with fine, white scales like jade, and was covered in a transparent, iridescent slime.

It has no dragon claws, no dragon tail, and apart from a pair of jade dragon horns on its head, it is impossible to tell that it is a dragon.

It looks more like a jade python...

You only realize how little you know when you need it! Xiao Ran then realized that he hadn't learned a single sword move in all the time he had been on Sword-Wielding Mountain. In such an important battle, he could only resort to dry slashing.

With agile movements, he wielded his sword like rain, unleashing a series of devastating blows that relentlessly pounded the dragon's body.

As a result, the white dragon's tail was connected, twisting and coiling inside and outside the space wall, creating a mixture of reality and illusion, leaving no trace.

Each of Xiao Ran's crucial strikes cleaved through the spatial barrier, causing a series of ear-piercing vibrations.

This kind of bizarre spatial magic is far superior to that of the likes of Gentleman and the Ranger.

Xiao Ran fought with his sword for a long time, but suddenly felt like he was stuck in a quagmire and being toyed with by a snake.

Having swallowed the Great Wraith Wraith Core, the Spirit Severing Realm Cultivation Level he had painstakingly achieved was utterly useless against a powerful enemy.

Look closely, the white dragon is at the Body Integration Realm!

It is at the same level as the giant blue python that devoured the Great Netherworld of Flamefree City, but it is far more agile.

Suddenly, it raised a pair of jade-colored dragon horns, emitting a strange ambergris fragrance, as if in a show of defiance.

"If you continue to play the role of a pretty face without showing your true abilities, your Master will be driven mad by illusions."

Ha, how could a fool be crazy? Xiao Ran didn't care at all and continued to charge forward with his sword.

Bai Long gazed wistfully in the direction of Lingzhou Yue.

"Now it seems that she is not the carefree person she appears to be; she has a deep-seated obsession."

Hmm? Master's obsession runs deep? Does he want to do nothing until the end of the world?

Xiao Ran didn't have time to think about such things.

If we can grab the dragon's horns and draw upon our Master's power to unleash a barrage of attacks on the dragon's body, we might be able to turn the tables and kill it!

With the Yan Armor not by his side, he had no other choice.

"Big bird, help me!"

He immediately released the Single-Winged Bird.

After Xiao Ran ate the Single-Winged Bird's right wing, an even larger wing grew on the spot, bigger than its entire body, and it looked very imposing.

This made Xiao Ran wonder how he lost his left wing and why it couldn't grow back. As soon as the Single-Winged Bird appeared, it spread its single wing, and a Big Bird Spin Spin Spin, burning with a fierce Dharma Body, and rushed towards the white dragon.

Result.

With a flick of its tail, the dragon created a distorted space, swallowing the entire bird into its pouch.

Clearly, Black Zither had been prepared.

Xiao Ran was also prepared to make a sacrifice.

In that fleeting moment of brilliance, he moved swiftly, leaping onto the dragon's back and grabbing its horns with both hands!

As if a sensitive spot had been touched, Bai Long shuddered and wrapped his arms around Xiao Ran's body.

The dragon's head strangled Xiao Ran's neck, its tail bound his legs, and its body tightened around his waist, forcibly Xiao Ran his power.

Xiao Ran felt like he was suffocating. The comical slime covered him up, yet it was like a black fire burning his Dantian, as if trying to drain his Qi Sea.

Li Wuxie, your defeat is understandable! Xiao Ran's sneak attack failed, and he was instead entangled by this sudden death, which drained all the Spiritual Power in his body except for the Qi Sea, and he almost lost his will.

They were even powerless to Resonance with the Bone of the Blood Moon or connect with their Master.

No way.

The only option is to use the Great Netherworld Power to unleash a black hole-like suction force to drain the white dragon's body.

With the Great Wraith Wraith Core, Xiao Ran is also a master of spirit extraction.

The dragon's body suddenly trembled, and there was a sudden tendency for its Spiritual Power to leak out.

Black Zither suddenly realized!

"I never imagined you had fused with Netherworld power!"

"The Nether Force also contains a trace of Dragon Bone Power!"

"So, you're not that dragon after all..."

Xiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, now you can let me go."

Unexpectedly, the woman's soft voice became even more resolute!

"Whether you possess the body of a true dragon or not is no longer important. Your ability to forcibly merge with the Wraith means you are destined to be one of my kind!"

"What kind of fellow traveler is this?"

Xiao Ran felt the constriction tighten even more, as if his body was about to break into three pieces.

As expected, the Great Nether Force of the Divine Realm of the Spirit Severing Realm could not withstand the divine beast White Python of the Body Integration Realm! Helpless, Xiao Ran could only channel his power into his muscles and forcefully Resonance with the dragon's body.

The white dragon shuddered, desperately coiling around the dragon and releasing a vast Spiritual Pressure.

"Lingzhou Yue really knows how to pick men. He's better than a real dragon. You're simply the man of men."

As he spoke, a sharp dragon roar echoed through the heavens and earth, its lingering sound never ceasing.

"Dragon and Elephant, Black Zither."

This melodious sound was not an illusion, but a high-level Dharma-like golden sound!

This is a sound-based spell applied to both the body and soul, intended to weaken Xiao Ran's fighting spirit.

Xiao Ran felt a chill run down his spine.

But he wasn't intimidated and gritted his teeth to activate the second-tier Resonance.

The soul leaves the body and merges with heaven and earth! Not only does the physical body Resonance with the dragon's body, but the soul also Resonance with the true form of the Black Zither.

Entering the mind-body Resonance mode, although Xiao Ran's Spiritual Pressure was at a disadvantage, he was actually drawing on the pure Spiritual Power of the white dragon by relying on the black hole-like suction of the Wraith.

"Um?"

A cave shrouded in black mist.

The cave was very empty, covered by an ancient jungle that had been dead for a long time.

The bare, dead tree trunks, straight as pillars, pierce the dome, giving off an eerie feeling in the black mist.

Deep in the jungle, there is a gray-white circular altar. The surface of the wooden altar is engraved with complex and difficult-to-decipher eerie characters.

The text exudes the breath of life, as if there is a twisted, entangled, and jarring murmur, sometimes near, sometimes far, lingering in the withered forest deep in the black mist.

In the center of the altar.

The woman in black robes sat on the ground, playing the zither, her rapid strumming producing a silent melody.

Her face grew paler and her breathing more erratic. Suddenly, the music stopped! A strange vibration entered her Palace Body.

Blood, a mixture of crimson and black, flowed from his lower body, the crimson and dark hues soaking into the entire altar, engulfing heaven and earth.

Black Zither's face was pale, her forehead was covered in sweat, her delicate body was tense, and her eyebrows twitched slightly.

She couldn't tell whether this trembling sensation came from vibration or from Resonance.

She couldn't help but recall how her Azure Serpent form had almost been broken in Flamefree City.

Unexpectedly, even sending her most treasured jade python, which was the one with the strongest yang energy, to probe this man's body yielded the same result.

"It's even more interesting than the body of a real dragon."

There was no trace of frustration in Black Zither's beautiful eyes; instead, a glint of excitement flashed in them.

"Now that you have also merged with the Great Underworld, let's see whose Underworld power is stronger!"

Xiao Ran sensed a trace of vast Netherworld power and looked up.

A strange gale swept in from an unknown place, stirring up towering waves.

In the blink of an eye, dark clouds gathered, and torrential rain poured down, as if the sky had been pierced, causing the Milky Way to hang upside down and cascade down.

Suddenly, from the center of the raging storm, a vast and ancient dragon's roar resounded! The roar echoed through the shattered sky, drowning out the sound of the rain, carrying with it an ancient grandeur and immensity.

It opened its gaping maw, like a black hole, and disappeared into the rainy night and dark fog, falling down in an instant.

Xiao Ran was soaked, his ears went numb, his whole body shuddered, and goosebumps rose on his skin.

Is this the beginning of a two-dragon-flying trend?

Just as Xiao Ran was feeling immense pressure and wanted to summon his Master for help—

The giant dragon in the sky suddenly stopped.

It wasn't an abrupt stop like braking; the entire space was frozen by magic.

In the rain, a pair of dark hands tore open the spatial barrier, bringing the two people behind them to the sky above the island.

The one who tore open the space was a dark-skinned woman.

The other two were tall, one old and one young, and were none other than Xuan Yuan Longcheng and Xuan Yuan Guang.

As soon as Xuan Yuan Longcheng appeared, he clasped his hands together and formed a hand seal.

"Dragon Binding Inscription".

A network of azure light patterns overlapped on the dragon's body.

Upon seeing this, the dark-skinned woman immediately tore off her clothes and skin, transforming into the shape of a man.

Good heavens, is this a popular trick now? Xiao Ran took a closer look and saw that the man was not tall, with sharp features and a cunning, roguish air. He was wearing a straw cloak, and a long sword made of straw was leaning against the chair. His messy, spiky black hair was like a blazing black flame.

—The Ranger! The Wanderer, representing the elite of the Dao Alliance, Ranger!

"Ugh... this suit is disgusting."

The Ranger had long been allied with the Xuan Yuan Family. His spatial magic, combined with the Xuan Yuan Family's Dragon Riding Art, was a perfect match for dragon hunting.

At the same time, it can also avoid the eyes and ears of the Dao Alliance, openly repairing one path while secretly advancing another, and after capturing the giant dragon, directly using spatial magic to transport it away.

Having confirmed that the dragon was bound, Xuan Yuan Guang looked down towards the beach.

"I never expected that Junior Brother Xiao would sacrifice himself to Ancient Jade Python bare body. He is truly admirable."

Xuan Yuan Longcheng continued to gather his strength and form hand seals, constantly reinforcing the Spirit Runes binding the dragon, and said with a solemn expression:

"What sacrifice? He gained the upper hand; otherwise, the three of us alone could not have bound the dragon."

Ranger stretched lazily and quietly looked at the giant dragon in front of him.

This isn't a dragon at all; it's a black, towering wall that blocks out all vision.

A single scale is larger than the island below! "Is this really a dragon? With the density of a dragon's Spiritual Power, to grow this big, it must be even more terrifying than the Wraith."

Xuan Yuan Guang played his flute and laughed, "Does it matter whether it's a dragon or not? What matters is that the Xuan Yuan Family has captured the dragon. In this way, the resources we obtain in the future will far exceed those of the dragon itself."

What shocked the Ranger even more was that the Xuan Yuan Family's Dragon Binding Technique—an old man casually forming a few net seals—had actually trapped such a giant dragon!

His spatial restraints could not last more than ten breaths!

In the rain.

Xuan Yuan Longcheng reached out and pressed his hand on the dragon scales, opened his Space Ring, and attempted to put the giant dragon into the Space Ring.

Unfortunately, the dragon was too large... and could not be stored in the highest-level Space Ring.

"Looks like we'll have to slice it up and take it with us."

As he said this, the Ranger gathered his sword energy, drew his longsword made of bundled grass, and slashed at the dragon's body.

The result was that only a shallow cut was made, which quickly healed and could not break through the defense at all.

Seeing this, Xuan Yuan Longcheng immediately channeled sword energy into the Ranger unleashed his second sword strike...

It left a deep cut, but it healed quickly.

Just as the three were wondering, a cold and rigid voice came from behind them.

"This dragon-python has already merged with the body of the Great Netherworld. I'm afraid the Xuan Yuan Family alone cannot defeat it."

The Ranger turned his head and saw Liu Hanzhen, the least likely place to be here.

He suddenly frowned, looking slightly nervous, and asked, "The Inner Sea is sealed off, and there's no entrance in the air at all. How did you get here?"

In fact, Liu Hanzhen was also puzzled, and then turned his head to look at Tantai You behind him.

Tantai You, however, walked down towards the beach...

The group looked at each other in bewilderment.

Liu Hanzhen simply said, "As expected of Senior Xuanyuan, only you in the world today can form such a Dragon Binding Seal."

These words sound like a rebuke of the Xuan Yuan Family for acting alone.

Xuan Yuan Guang hurriedly explained awkwardly, "Our ancestor is still alive. We have come here to find him."

"But didn't Ancestor Xuan Yuan become an immortal?"

Liu Hanzhen smiled with a straight face. Seeing that the others were even more embarrassed, he did not press the matter further and drew his Zhanming Sword.

"Extinguishing Dao Dharma Form, Wraith Slaying Sword Array."

A silver-white golden Dharma Body covered the black Netherworld-Slaying Sword, slashing towards the giant dragon—

He actually followed the line of the dragon-binding Spirit Runes and cleaved the giant dragon into a thousand pieces with a single sword strike!

The three of them were dumbfounded.

Liu Hanzhen said:

"Everyone has contributed, and the Dao Alliance won't take all the credit. I can't carry this much by myself, so everyone should take some."

"Oh, okay."

The three were stunned for a moment before they reacted and opened their Space Ring.

However, at that moment—

The thousand pieces of dragon flesh began to turn black and decay, eventually transforming into a thousand Nether Wraith Dragon.

The pitch-black darkness blotted out the sun, churning clouds and rain, stirring up Spiritual Pressure, and emitting an ancient dragon roar that sounded like a howl from the underworld.

Night fell.

Tantai You walked toward the beach, he looked up at the colossal dragon clone that blotted out the sky, a shadow of mist flashing in his blood-red eyes.

She had a striking appearance, but her attire was unremarkable, and her bloodshot eyes held only weariness and desolation.

Although he was somewhat shocked by the countless dragons that had sprung from the Black Zither Fusion, he ignored them.

In his view, the Ancient Azure Python that had merged with the body of the Great Netherworld was not as rare as the Ancient Jade Python that had fought with Xiao Ran.

This seven-colored jade python is likely the purest and closest to the dragon bloodline in the Dharma Ending Era, apart from that black dragon.

With a flash, he arrived at the scene where Xiao Ran and the jade python were trembling.

"Junior Brother Xiao, I'm here to lend you a hand."

Who are you? Do we know each other well?

Xiao Ran didn't pay any attention.

However, the white dragon beneath him suddenly sharpened its eyes! That instantaneous soul-shaking tremor sent a chill down Xiao Ran's spine, who Resonance with it.

He could clearly sense the astonishment and surprise that Black Zither felt at the person before him; it was as if...

I know this person! Tantai You, the man who single-handedly slaughtered a hundred strongmen from the Four Great Families, a man whom the Mad Hunt admired even more than Xiao Ran himself, and who had even hinted at Xiao Ran's ring when the team separated earlier.

Although this person was strange, Xiao Ran was currently engaged in a delicate balance with the white dragon beneath him, their juices flowing freely and neither side gaining the upper hand. He simply didn't have the time to pay attention to him.

In the instant that Bai Long saw Tantai You and was stunned, Xiao Ran seized a moment to take advantage of the situation.

He immediately used the power of the Wraith Core to activate the Bone of the Blood Moon, Resonance with his Master's Bone of the Blood Moon Qi Sea remotely, and forcibly drawing back his Master's power.

The powerful sword energy was drawn back into his body, gathering in his palms. He gripped the dragon horns and used his Master's power to suppress the white dragon in an instant. Without hesitation, he dragged it directly into the System Space.

Non-human Spirit Body!

Spirit Body contact!

Spiritual Pressure suppression!

Once these three conditions are met, the other party can be added to the System Space.

Space distorted without a trace, like ripples that were instantly smoothed out by two hands.

Bai Long was still in shock and hadn't reacted when his body was already gone.

Before Xiao Ran, Tantai You was taken aback. His blood-red eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a multi-eyed geometric pattern resembling the compound eyes of an insect, as if he were probing Xiao Ran's spatial magic.

"This jade python is extremely skilled in spatial magic. Your Space Ring can't contain her. Leave it to me, and the credit will go to you."

Having subdued the demoness's clone, Xiao Ran was powerless and suspended in mid-air, like a leaf falling onto the beach, his hands braced against his knees to avoid falling.

He was completely exhausted, panting heavily, but his tone was very firm.

What if I say no?

"Speaking is useless."

Tantai You's eyes widened, transforming into sharp, multi-faceted shapes. He gathered Spiritual Power in the five fingers of his right hand and reached into the void in front of Xiao Ran.

They searched every inch of space but couldn't find the outer wall of Xiao Ran's Space Ring...

Impossible! Tantai You's bloodshot eyes froze as he stared at Xiao Ran, completely unable to understand the man before him.

Who are you?!

Before Xiao Ran speak, a swift red figure appeared behind Tantai You and patted him on the shoulder.

His voice carried the smell of alcohol, slightly tipsy and languid.

"And who are you?"

Chapter 221 The King of Lewd Talk:

I can't stand this name being repeated all the time.

Paralysis above the neck
