Looking at the three remaining jade boxes, Shi Yu pondered which Martial Uncle he should give the remaining jade boxes to...

Afterward, a middle-aged Taoist with a pained expression and another with a face full of worry appeared in his mind...

"No, no~"

"If I go to the West, won't that be like a crane falling into a tiger's mouth...?"

After much hesitation, Shi Yu decided to give it away after all. After all, he was still a Martial Uncle, and it was always good to build a good relationship!

Thus, he silently chanted the name of Mount Sumeru and flew west according to the guidance. He didn't know how long he flew before entering the western territory of the Primordial World.

"Holy crap!"

"Is this still the West?"

"Damn it, are you sure this isn't Mars?"

The Tai Xu Shui Yun He circled in the western sky. The spiritual energy here was chaotic and thin.

After the Dragon-Han Tribulation, the western earth veins exploded, leaving behind a scene of desolation and ruin...

The sky was obscured by a mixture of thick tribulation clouds and dust, blocking out the sun.

On the ground, dried-up riverbeds were everywhere. The sand and stones in the riverbeds had been melted by high temperatures and then solidified, forming strange shapes.

"Hiss~"

"The Dragon-Han Tribulation seems to have caused great damage to the West. No wonder the Dao Ancestor was willing to give away two Saint positions..."

The Tai Xu Shui Yun He flew rapidly through the clouds, passing through thick layers of clouds. After a long while, Shi Yu, tired from flying, landed on a mountain peak to rest.

"Whoosh~~"

A huge rock flew up from below, attacking Shi Yu, who was resting.

"Which cultivator dares to come out and face me!"

There was no response. A moment later, a blood-red arrow broke through the air, heading straight for Shi Yu, its shaft entwined with boundless killing intent.

Shi Yu turned around, and the sharp arrowhead grazed his chest. After a loud "boom," the mountain peak not far away exploded.

"You attacked first!"

"Fan, come!"

Shi Yu flicked his wrist, and the Cloud Void Water Fan appeared in his hand. With a sweep of the fan, several water dragons rose from the ground and swept outwards, forcing several figures out of thin air.

"A cultivator from the East?"

"Truly wealthy, an ultimate Innate Spiritual Treasure!"

"What a pity, it belongs to me now!"

A hunched old man looked greedily at the Cloud Void Water Fan in Shi Yu's hand.

"You guys don't attack yet, let this old man go first. This spiritual treasure is destined for me~"

A blood-red Immortal Sword appeared in the old man's hand, and behind him, a demonic wolf filled with fierce energy materialized.

"Sigh, do all you cultivators from the West like to form destinies with other people's spiritual treasures?" Shi Yu fanned his Cloud Void Water Fan.

"Kid, you're at the late stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and I'm at the same level. However, unlike you Eastern cultivators, I live in the barren lands of the West, where we survive by licking blood from the tip of a knife!"

"How can you compare to us Eastern cultivators who live comfortable lives every day!"

As he spoke with passion, the old man actually threw off his armor, revealing his body covered in scars. This scar was left from a fight with Zhu Yan...

Before the old man could finish introducing himself, a fan glowing with a bluish hue flew over, hitting him directly in the face, and then he fell down powerlessly.

"If you want to fight, fight, why take off your clothes?"

"Are you philosophizing?"

An instant later, a sky-high demonic aura surged from below. Such fierce energy would damage the primordial spirit of cultivators with low cultivation.

"Let's attack together, kill him, and split the magic treasures!"

The old man with a large red mark on his forehead glared fiercely at Shi Yu, and the group surrounded Shi Yu.

Each of them released the phantom image of their true form behind them, baring their fangs and claws, the blood-fiend aura soaring into the sky.

"Attack together?"

"Not only does it save trouble, but I can also earn some merit. It's a win-win situation!" Shi Yu surveyed his surroundings, then tucked the Cloud Void Water Fan behind his neck.

"Hahahaha, why did you put away your spiritual treasure? Are you scared of us?" one of them sneered.

"No, I'm afraid I won't be able to kill you all at once!"

"Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi! Appear!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a crystal-clear jade ruler appeared in Shi Yu's hand, filled with immense merit.

"Not good! It's a Houtian Merit Supreme Treasure!"

"Run! This is a tough one!"

The leading old man frowned, then turned and ran. This brat could actually produce a Houtian Merit Supreme Treasure. Legend has it that this item only belonged to Taiqing of Kunlun Mountain. Could he be the legendary eldest disciple of Taiqing...

"You come and go as you please?"

"What a joke!"

Shi Yu, holding the Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi, gave chase. He threw the Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi, formed a sword finger with his hand, and swung it down fiercely. With a rise and fall of the ruler, one person was killed.

These fiends were all surrounded by a malevolent aura. Treasures formed from merit were their natural bane.

Facing the approaching Shi Yu, shouts of shock and anger rang out: "Stop! We are from the Demon Clan!"

"That's right, we belong to Shangyang Demon Saint!"

"Don't be rash! You won't get away with killing us!"

Shi Yu sneered, "So what if she's Shangyang Demon Saint? You attacked me without cause and even tried to snatch my Spiritual Treasures. If I weren't strong enough, I would have already been a dead soul under your blades. Today, even if she came herself, I would still seek justice."

With that, the Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi glowed even brighter, ready to finish them off. There was no other way; the Primordial World was a place where the strong preyed on the weak! It was either you die or I die!

The remaining people showed despair. Just then, a clear cry echoed from the horizon.

Joy immediately lit up everyone's faces as they shouted, "The Demon Saint is here! Demon Saint, save us!"

Shi Yu looked up and saw a giant Shangyang bird with wings spread wide, flying towards them, exuding a powerful aura.

Shangyang Demon Saint landed nearby and transformed into a woman. She glanced at the Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi in Shi Yu's hand, her eyes shifting slightly. "Fellow Daoist, please show mercy. I apologize for their offense!"

"Do you think a flimsy apology is enough?"

"Fellow Daoist, don't push your luck!"

Shangyang Demon Saint frowned slightly. She wore a moon-white brocade dress, its hem swaying like clouds, and a light blue ribbon tied at her waist, which moved without wind.

"Young friend, don't blame me for crushing you with my cultivation!"

"I truly don't wish to fight you. My dignified Quasi-Saint cultivation, bullying a Grand Unity Golden Immortal like you, would look bad if word got out!"

"Wind Cloud Banner, come!"

Shangyang Demon Saint waved the Wind Cloud Banner in her hand, summoning a storm of wind and rain.

"Thank you, Shangyang Demon Saint, for clearing the field!"

"Then I shall warm up for Senior Shangyang! Get my circulation going!"

Behind Shi Yu, the phantom of the Tai Xu Shui Yun He materialized. Under the rain, his aura surged continuously. He took down the Cloud Void Water Fan that was tucked behind his neck.

In his left hand, the Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi; in his right, the Cloud Void Water Fan.

"Then I'll see just how capable you are!" Shangyang Demon Saint's brow furrowed as she raised the Wind Cloud Banner.

"My cultivation is too far behind. I can only rely on surprise. I hope it doesn't backfire!"

First move, first advantage! Shi Yu launched his attack first. With a wave of the Cloud Void Water Fan, several streams of water shot towards Shangyang Demon Saint like spiritual snakes.

"Uninteresting!"

Shangyang Demon Saint snorted coldly. The Wind Cloud Banner danced even faster, the strong winds whipping up the rainwater to form a shield, easily blocking the spiritual snake-like water streams.

"Senior Shangyang, there's more!"

Shi Yu then threw the Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi. The ruler, carrying immense power of merit, charged towards Shangyang Demon Saint.

"Houtian Merit Supreme Treasure! What's your connection to Taiqing!"

Shangyang Demon Saint felt the pressure. Wind swept beneath her feet, and she flashed away, dodging the attack.

"My Master is Taiqing!"

However, Shi Yu had anticipated her evasion. He waved the Cloud Void Water Fan again, this time unleashing a biting cold wind towards Shangyang Demon Saint, who had just stabilized herself.

Shangyang Demon Saint hadn't expected Shi Yu's relentless assault and was momentarily flustered. Although her cultivation was far superior, her opponent's Spiritual Treasures were too good...

But she was a Quasi-Saint after all. She quickly regained her composure and shot several bolts of lightning from the Wind Cloud Banner towards Shi Yu.

The Tai Xu Shui Yun He phantom behind Shi Yu flapped its wings and soared, carrying Shi Yu as he weaved through the lightning.

"Great River Water, Descending from Heaven!"

Seeing that he couldn't defeat Shangyang Demon Saint, Shi Yu was already preparing to flee. He only needed a few seconds to escape, and he was confident he could do it. Don't ask why, just assume he was confident.

The Azure Water Spirit Pearl flew out, and the Cloud Void Water Fan emitted a brilliant azure glow. Instantly, a vast azure rift opened in the sky above the battlefield.

Billions of gallons of seawater poured down from the heavens, flowing freely and ceaselessly, forming a massive water curtain that separated Shi Yu and Shangyang Demon Saint.

"What?"

Shangyang Demon Saint was slightly stunned. The next moment, she could no longer see Shi Yu through the water curtain.

"You, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, can still escape from my Quasi-Saint grasp? This is the height of absurdity!"

Shangyang Demon Saint closed her eyes slightly. The next moment, she locked onto Shi Yu's location, raised the Wind Cloud Banner, and gently tossed it.

The Wind Cloud Banner tore through the water curtain, transforming into a stream of light that shot towards the distance. As if breaking through space, it directly struck Shi Yu, who was tens of thousands of miles away.

"You think you can escape my grasp? Don't make me laugh!"

Shangyang Demon Saint flew towards the direction of the Wind Cloud Banner. Upon finding it, She discovered that her Spiritual Treasure was being held by a haggard-looking middle-aged Daoist, while Shi Yu stood behind him, gasping for breath.

"This item has a karmic connection with my West!"

As he spoke, the middle-aged Daoist slightly raised his hand, transforming his palm into a blade and slashing at the Wind Cloud Banner. The karmic connection between Shangyang Demon Saint and her Spiritual Treasure was thus severed...

"Martial Uncle Jieyin, what a skillful move!"

"Eldest Martial Nephew, you flatter me. I cultivate the Great Dao of Karmic Connection. I merely ended her karmic connection with this treasure!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu hurriedly put away all of his Spiritual Treasures...

"Give me back my Spiritual Treasure!"

Shangyang Demon Saint was burning with rage. Her Spiritual Treasure had been snatched away just like that. How outrageous! Today, this old lady will fight you to the death!

"Fellow Daoist, I see you also have a karmic connection with my West!"

As soon as Jieyin finished speaking, Shangyang Demon Saint tore through space and fled...

If you can't find the book by its title, you can try searching for the author. Perhaps the title was just changed!
