Breaking the Deadlock

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

Flames erupted within the hall, shooting skyward in an instant. The disciples in the distance, unaware of the situation, instinctively shouted, "Enemy attack!"

Chaos reigned within the Profound Yin Sect.

At this moment, Meng Qingying was also unable to escape.

The several Cloud-Soaring cultivators who were protecting Qi Wen at close range inside the hall were first stunned, then enraged. Before Meng Qingying could disappear, several different Technique Method had already struck her.

But this also failed. Meng Qingying, like a ghost, once again swapped places with the Shadow Puppet she had set up, and all the Technique Method missed their mark again.

The Profound Yin Sect cultivators were dumbfounded. They never expected that a female cultivator from the Teng Yun sect, who was being chased by Hui Yang cultivators, would take advantage of such a moment of distraction, and with the protection of several of their fellow cultivators, instantly take the enemy's head, and then disappear under such close-range attacks...

Is this even human?

"Stay here!" Xuan Hao Zhenren's furious voice came from outside the door. His Divine Sense accurately found Meng Qingying flying in the shadows. An extremely cold and chilling aura came over her. Due to the overwhelming difference in their levels, Meng Qingying finally could not withstand the extreme cold and chilling aura, and her legs stiffened.

As the speed of flight was limited, another piercing ice crystal exploded before their eyes.

Meng Qingying's Shadow Puppet was exhausted, but she was not panicked. She directly exchanged places with Star Dragon.

But suddenly the switching stopped.

Her refining with the Star Dragon was never perfect, and in this Land of Chaos, some Technique Method often failed. It was already lucky that all her Technique Method had succeeded before, but who could have predicted that they would suddenly fail when she was about to suffer fatal damage?

"The path of demonic cultivation is indeed fraught with unpredictable fortune." Meng Qingying could no longer dodge Bing Lin. She only had time to use all her strength to unleash the Shadow Shuttle and barely managed to block it. Her shoulder was pierced through, and she was pinned to the courtyard wall before sliding to the ground.

"Cough cough..." Meng Qingying coughed up a mouthful of blood, and Xuan Hao Zhenren was already standing in front of her.

Meng Qingying laughed, "You wouldn't dare kill me, would you?"

Xuan Hao Zhenren's expression was very unpleasant.

He dared not kill Meng Qingying, fearing her master would foresee her demise. But if he didn't, her return would bring him endless trouble, and he would die sooner or later anyway.

He slowly spoke, "I can cripple you and imprison you here. As Qi Wen said, your master has no divine sense left on you, he can only rely on calculation. In this Land of Chaos, and without direct cause and effect of death, he may not be able to calculate it."

Meng Qingying smiled and said, "You can take a bet."

Xuan Hao Zhenren slowly said, "I have no choice but to take this gamble... In any case, I'll put the restriction on first."

Xuan Hao Zhenren flicked his hand, and Meng Qingying felt her Dantian locked, rendering her unable to use any more Technique Method. She sighed, recalling when Qin Yi had restricted her... Back then, although she couldn't muster any strength, she felt as safe as a mountain, but now...

Her life wasn't in serious danger; Xuan Hao Zhenren wouldn't dare kill her. But what kind of sect was this? This was a sect that practiced dual cultivation! The reason Xuan Hao Zhenren only restricted her instead of crippling her was probably so he could use her as Cauldron ...

With her Law Power sealed, the Transformations on her body also disappeared, and Meng Qingying reverted to her original charming little Witch form. The onlookers exclaimed in surprise, "I thought she'd be a decent Cauldron, but she's so ugly!"

Xuan Hao Zhenren hesitated for a moment, then said, "Ugly as it may be, its cultivation is still very refined, making it worthy of dual cultivation."

Meng Qingying sneered and remained silent.

She was seizing the opportunity to break through the restrictions. Outsiders didn't know much about the Myriad Images of the Universe; in reality, even though she was restricted, she wasn't completely powerless to resist, because a large part of her combat power lay in her puppets. The Star Dragon wasn't lost; it had simply dispersed into the void along with her being restricted. As long as she could barely spare a wisp of divine thought, she could summon it directly beneath her and take her away when no one was paying attention.

Death Zone is her instinct; she won't let any opportunity slip by. Only restricting her without crippling her was Xuan Hao Zhenren's biggest mistake.

"Make way! Make way!" A man squeezed through the crowd. "Let me see!"

"Martial Grand-Uncle!" People bowed in greeting, even Xuan Hao Zhenren bowed, "Uncle-Master."

The visitor was none other than Qin Yi.

The chaos on both sides erupted almost simultaneously. He didn't cause much trouble, forcibly breaking the lotus pond's restrictions to retrieve the lotus flower, and fled before the cultivators from nearby peaks could arrive. He headed towards the Earth Fire and saw Meng Qingying being defeated from afar.

His eyes darted around, and he transformed into the appearance of Pu Xiang Zhenren, swaggering over.

"This female cultivator is quite something." Qin Yi adopted the tone of Pu Xiang Zhenren. "She reminds me of the female cultivators from tens of thousands of years ago. Tsk tsk, quite interesting."

Someone nearby remarked, "Martial Grand-Uncle, your taste..."

"You little brat wouldn't understand! Experiencing all the wonders of the world, that's the true essence!" Qin Yi strolled up to Meng Qingying, intentionally or unintentionally standing between her and Xuan Hao Zhenren, looking her up and down. "I want this Cauldron."

Xuan Hao Zhenren hesitated for a moment. "Uncle-Master, this..."

"Don't be so stingy!" Qin Yi retorted angrily, "I just want the Red Pill, it's not like I want to keep it all to myself!"

Xuan Hao Zhenren somewhat helpless. This senior uncle was all talk and no action, but he was still one of the few outstanding talents in the sect, and he had passed on many ancient techniques, so he was highly respected by everyone. Although he had squeezed out this senior uncle and made him lose his voice, he still had to give him enough face in public.

He sighed helplessly, "Uncle-Master, this woman has a special identity. If anything goes wrong, the entire sect will die."

"You're from Huiyang, and so am I. I know more tricks than you! I know the same restrictions you know, and I know the same defenses you know. Do you think I'm a little kid?" Qin Yi glared and puffed out his cheeks, then simply pushed him aside and bent down to hug Meng Qingying.

A strange light flashed in Meng Qingying's eyes. She was just a hair's breadth away from summoning the Star Dragon!

Just then, she saw the "Pu Xiang Zhenren" in front of her wink at her, and a strange power emanated from the ring. A special Technique Method that she couldn't understand descended upon her, instantly breaking the restriction on her and even slowing down her injuries.

At the same time, someone in the distance shouted, "That Martial Grand-Uncle is a fake..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Yi suddenly swung his body, and the Wolf Tooth Club whistled as it smashed towards Xuan Hao Zhenren's head.

Caught off guard, Xuan Hao Zhenren instinctively raised his right hand to block, and an Ice Shield automatically formed on his arm to protect him. The Wolf Tooth Club then slammed into the Ice Shield.

The Ice Shield creaked, Xuan Hao Zhenren was jolted back two steps. Qin Yi himself felt his hands go numb and almost lost his grip on the staff. He fell backward and crashed into Meng Qingying.

The Daoist robe turned into a blue gown, and the appearance of "Pu Xiang Zhenren" had become Qin Yi's handsome face.

"Roar!"

A colossal Star Dragon emerged from the void beneath Meng Qingying's feet.

Meng Qingying reached out and pulled Qin Yi onto the dragon's back. The dragon swung its body wildly, sweeping away the surrounding cultivators, and the entire hall behind it collapsed.

Smoke and dust filled the sky, and the Star Dragon soared into the air, creating chaos on the scene.

Xuan Hao Zhenren was so enraged that he vomited blood, and roared, "Die!"

The dragon-shaped ice and fire spiral shot straight ahead. This was no longer a simple Technique Method used for show. The terrifying power of the radiant sun made Qin Yi and Meng Qingying tense up even from a great distance.

Xuan Hao Zhenren himself also flew rapidly after the ice and fire dragon.

Meng Qingying tried to cast a spell, but a sweet taste rose in her throat, and a mouthful of blood gushed out, rendering her powerless. She looked up and saw the figure in green leap from the dragon's body, slashing into the ice-fire dragon along with his staff.

"No!" Meng Qingying was terrified. "You'll die!"

That's the Radiant Sun Technique Method! Qin Yi crashed right into it; how could he possibly escape unscathed?

Qin Yi knew that he couldn't stop it otherwise. Meng Qingying was in such a state that she couldn't even withstand a close brush with the dragon. He had to completely absorb the entire Technique Method and prevent it from getting close to the Star Dragon in order to give Meng Qingying a chance to escape.

The Star Dragon was still flying swiftly. Meng Qingying stared blankly at the figure rushing towards the intertwined ice and fire. The scene was frozen in time, like a dream.
