Spirit Transmutation Dao Blood! Arrogant and Overbearing Chen Baimao! Down-to-Earth and Low-Key Old Chen Deng

The annihilation and decapitation operation was over, but the Battlefield left behind looked as if the entire capital of Nightmare Country had been razed to the ground.

The city was in complete disarray, with wreckage and ruins everywhere. The once bustling Marketplace was now filled with destroyed buildings and collapsed floating islands blocking the way.

With the fall of the Nightmare Country Lord and the Northern Yin Holy Mother, the Nightmare Country and the Northern Spirit Sect have become defunct in name only.

Although many demons and cultivators managed to escape in the chaos, they were no longer a threat.

These remnants will be gradually eliminated during the further encirclement and suppression by the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance.

After Chen Dengming and the others reunited, they attacked together, destroying the Nightmare Country's Treasure Vault and Library Hall, and taking away the entire wealth of the Demon Kingdom.

As for the wealth of the Northern Spirit Sect, after a fruitless search, Mo Jiazheng and the others tacitly refrained from mentioning it.

They speculated that the wealth of the Northern Spirit Sect might have been carried by the Northern Yin Holy Mother.

Since the Northern Yin Holy Mother has been killed by Chen Dengming, the wealth naturally belongs to Chen Dengming. After all, he killed her single-handedly, so it's best for everyone to tacitly agree not to ask about such spoils.

As for the wealth of Nightmare Country, the group will discuss and divide the spoils upon their return.

Unnecessary items will be handed over to the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance in exchange for Merit Points, which can then be used to exchange for the necessary supplies, thus maximizing resource benefits.

After all this busy work, it had been about an incense stick's time to burn.

To prevent any Nascent Spirit Transformation from arriving, the group did not linger and quickly retreated in a Fourth-tier Spirit Boat.

Along the way, one could see large areas of ground and mountains collapsed, burying many demons, Demon Beast, and Devil Cultivator in the ruins.

This chaotic and miserable situation stretched for hundreds of miles before it began to improve slightly.

However, even hundreds of miles away, the cracks that stretched for more than ten kilometers, created by the massive earthquake, could still be seen.

A large river even breached its dikes, causing floods that inundated some ordinary villages and towns.

The clouds and mist churned in the sky, and dozens of miles away, columns of wind, like tornadoes, howled and raged.

A hundred miles away, another torrential downpour began, with thunder rumbling and flashing in the clouds, creating a harsh and peculiar environment.

These are all chain reactions caused by the battle between several Nascent Soul experts.

When powerful beings clash, they drain the Spiritual Qi of a thousand miles away, causing the Spiritual Qi within that thousand miles to become thinner.

The chaotic collision of energies caused mountains and rivers to collapse and change course, resulting in severe changes in celestial phenomena.

Chen Dengming's initially pleasant mood after defeating the Northern Yin Holy Mother turned sour again.

Having witnessed the struggles of low-level cultivators and mortals in disaster-stricken areas, he couldn't help but recall the days when he fought alongside Jiang Qiang and survived the beast tides on the Ten Thousand Mile Frontier.

He also thought of the captive monks he had previously witnessed in the mountains being controlled by demons.

"Old Chen, what's wrong?"

Qiao Zhaoxian, who was standing to the side, keenly noticed the expression on his former comrade-in-arms, now a senior, and asked.

Chen Dengming shook his head, his white hair fluttering in the wind. Instead of answering, he asked, "When will the cultivators from the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance who are coming to take over arrive?"

I recalled seeing some captured cultivators in the mountains before; perhaps some of them were from our Southeast Two Regions or the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance, and they might need our help and rescue."

Qiao Zhaoxian taken aback, and the others around him also changed their expressions upon hearing this, showing some surprise.

This is a question that neither he nor anyone else has likely considered.

Because their mission was simply to encircle and kill them.

Subconsciously, they believed that the successful encirclement and decapitation mission would not only be a good thing for the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance, but also a great liberation for many enslaved cultivators.

As for the subsequent clearing, cleanup, and takeover, it's not their responsibility, nor do they need to concern themselves with it, so naturally no one will think about it.

However, no one considered that even if the encirclement and decapitation were successful, the resulting chaos might lead to even greater bloodshed and chaos due to the temporary collapse of the Nightmare Country's order and rules.

Those captured cultivators who failed to escape before are likely in even greater danger now.

Now that Chen Dengming brought it up, everyone remembered that they had indeed seen many enslaved and suffering cultivators in the mountains and forests within the Nightmare Country.

Mo Jiazheng turned slightly solemn as he said, "Sect Leader Chen's reminder is correct. I will immediately send a telepathic message to urge Elder Zuo to send a support team of cultivators to assist us."

Chen Dengming pondered for a moment, then nodded, then shook his head and said, "It may take them quite a while to get here and take over. I'll send two clones to search for and assist them first."

How many captured cultivators can be rescued depends on Heaven's Will. Sending an avatar to do the rescue is fine, even if something dangerous happens."

Considering the threat posed by the Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord, the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance will continue to send small teams of cultivators to encircle and suppress the remaining enemies, which will certainly take time.

Chen Dengming still planned to send two clones to rescue some cultivators first; how many could be rescued was beyond his control.

For him, it was just a simple matter of lending a hand.

But for many suffering monks trapped in dire straits, it was a precious opportunity to extend their lives.

Chen Dengming cultivates his mind and emphasizes having a clear conscience.

This fierce battle of encirclement and decapitation, though initially beneficial to all regions, was ultimately a victory for all.

But the result is that some people who were already suffering are now plunged into an even deeper disaster.

He is willing to lend a helping hand to save some people, and he chooses to ignore them. These are two different states of State of Mind and cultivation, and he chooses the former.

Chen Dengming made a hand seal and condensed two clones that exuded the spiritual power of golden cores.

"That's one good thing about Old Chen."

Qiao Zhaoxian secretly admired him and felt honored to have such a close friend.

This is why, even as Chen Dengming grew stronger and left him behind, he felt no resentment, dissatisfaction, or jealousy. It was simply because he had always admired Chen Dengming's humble and unassuming character.

Mo Jiazheng and other Nascent Soul True Lord couldn't help but feel a deep respect for Chen Dengming, not only because of his formidable strength, but also because of his sense of responsibility and dedication.

This is precisely what many indifferent comrades lack.

No one will laugh at this.

Because if you ask yourself honestly, if you or your loved ones were in dire straits, it would be someone like Chen Dengming who would lend a helping hand, rather than someone who would rather die than see a fellow believer die.

"Sect Leader Chen is kind and benevolent, which I admire. No wonder Six-brow Junior Brother has mentioned Sect Leader Chen to me many times."

Wu Xiangui bowed and smiled admiringly. After a moment of contemplation, he tentatively asked, "Did Sect Leader Chen damage any magical Law Treasure during his battle with the Northern Yin Holy Mother? I am willing to repair them for Sect Leader Chen free of charge; you only need to prepare the materials."

Chen Dengming's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood that Wu Xiangui was recalling what he had mentioned last time, and was now naturally using this as an excuse to test him, hoping to do him a favor.

This is certainly a great thing.

Everyone here is shrewd and quick to understand, Chen Dengming said with a sincere smile and a polite bow.

"I never expected Brother Six Eyebrows to speak so highly of me in public. It makes me feel ashamed."

To be honest, some of my robes were indeed damaged this time, but how could I let Brother Wu Dao make them for free? Perhaps I should offer some compensation."

"Why!?"

Wu Xiangui feigned displeasure, "Sect Leader Chen, you're being too polite with me. I respect your Sect Leader Chen and wish to be your friend, not for these rewards."

"Haha, that's good. Since Fellow Daoist Wu is being so generous, how about you help me repair some of my Law Treasure free of charge?"

"Alas! I, Mo, also happened to have my Law Treasure damaged in this battle."

"Oh? What a coincidence? Uncle Nephew Disciple, my Primordial Qi Bracelet is also slightly damaged. Junior Sister Bai, have you also had Law Treasure damaged?"

"Get out of here! If you want any repairs, you can only get a friendly price, not free."

"Fellow Daoist Wu, that's not very kind of you."

"You old scoundrel, you still haven't paid me back the materials you owed me last time. We're old friends, there's no such thing as a free lunch, except for Sect Leader Chen, who's a new acquaintance, so it's free for him."

After a burst of laughter...

Chen Dengming left only the Giant Deer Mage Robe upper garment, which needed repair, for Seven-eyed True Lord to fix; the other Law Treasure were unnecessary and undesirable.

The best steel should be used where it's most needed.

If Artifact Refining Grandmaster like Seven-eyed True Lord is willing to do someone a favor, then we should accept it properly.

One shouldn't be too greedy and just throw a bunch of Law Treasure at someone to repair, otherwise, not only will they be looked down upon, but it will also easily diminish the goodwill between them.

Having cultivated immortality for many years, Chen Dengming naturally understood the importance of maintaining and treasuring such human relationships.

If someone treats me with respect, I will repay them tenfold; that's how we maintain mutual respect.

He returned to the cabin of the spirit boat and took pills to continue recovering from his injuries and depletion.

Although condensing two Heavenly Immortal Clone was a simple task, it still caused him to lose more Mental Strength and Immortal Celestial Dao Power, requiring him to recover quickly.

Not long after this group left the Western Regions.

Several extremely powerful Spirit Transmutation Spiritual Might suddenly erupted from the Spirit Thunder Layer above the Western Regions.

Chen Dengming and the others sensed a terrifying aura from a great distance inside the spirit boat.

The atmosphere suddenly became incredibly oppressive.

The group immediately went to the deck of the spirit boat. When they turned around, they saw lightning flashing in the sky over the western region, and most of the sky looked like it was on fire.

A chilling, bone-chilling wind swept down from the Spiritual Qi Wind Layer, stirring up billowing clouds and causing the trees in the mountains below to rustle loudly.

"The other side really did have Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord making a move, but it seems they ran into one of our experts on their way here," said Seven-eyed True Lord Wu Xiangui solemnly.

Mo Jiazheng stroked his beard and said quietly, "Those who have reached the Nascent Spirit Transformation stage will be watched by other Nascent Spirit Transformation. Whether it is the Three Saints Dao Lord, the Mochao Kingdom Lord, or the Heavenly Demon, whoever makes a move will be attacked by our Senior Mingguang and the others."

I initially thought they probably wouldn't make a move under these circumstances, but now it seems they have their own agenda.

Zhuang Chengxian frowned and said, "They are all caged beasts now. If they don't change, they will die."

These old guys have lived for so many years, their methods are endless, their conspiracies are intricately linked, they probably have some new ideas."

"I'll let my clone take a look."

Chen Dengming looked towards the distant Sky Dome the celestial phenomena had changed.

In the blink of an eye.

A clone located in the Western Inner Domain flew out from a ruin, its eyes gleaming with blue light, observing the terrifying battle within the Spirit Thunder Layer at close range.

As a result, only a few terrifyingly powerful figures could be vaguely seen, fiercely battling within the Spirit Thunder Layer.

Each collision unleashed boundless spiritual light, and the spiritual thunder roared, transforming into countless root-like lightning bolts that spread out, tearing a huge gap in the Spirit Thunder Layer and the Spiritual Qi Wind Layer below. As the light dimmed, it resembled a series of black holes in the sky.

This situation continued for several breaths, and then more than a dozen light bands collapsed, turning into terrifying black holes, as if Spirit Transformation was letting out a painful roar within the Spirit Thunder Layer.

"Mingguang, Shenjian, don't push your luck too far."

We promise to completely withdraw from the war and enter the Shattered Immortal Realm a hundred years from now. Any grudges can be settled then. If you continue to press us, the consequences will be severe."

"To settle old scores in the Shattered Immortal Realm a hundred years from now?" Chen Dengming's heart skipped a beat.

Gara-la-la.

Suddenly, a purplish-green beam of light, like a startled snake, streaked past.

It was an incredibly fast flying sword, its Sword Qi energy crisscrossing in all directions, sharp and unparalleled, exuding a vast and awe-inspiring righteous aura.

Boom!

It was as if a thunderclap resounded above the clone's head, as if lightning had torn the sky apart.

A fierce gust of Spiritual Qi energy swept down from the sky, like a category 10 typhoon, forcing Chen Dengming's clone to land on the ground amidst the hurricane.

At this moment, several blurry figures swept past Chen Dengming's clone's Heavenly Eye, and a chilling snort faintly echoed through the air.

Tick-tock--

Drops of Golden-Red Liquid, exuding an extremely strong Spiritual Qi, suddenly fell from the sky, tearing through the gale, piercing through the trees on the ground, and crashing into the ground, creating shallow craters.

"What good stuff?"

Chen Dengming immediately ordered his clone to observe remotely using his Heavenly Eye.

Within the shallow pit, drops of golden-red blood, perfectly round and lustrous, shimmered with a radiant glow, possessing a powerful allure.

It seems that as long as one consumes this drop of blood, one can be instantly transformed, possess a Daoist body, and defy fate.

"The Dao blood of Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord?"

Chen Dengming frowned, and after a moment of contemplation, ordered his clone not to get too close.

Nascent Soul cultivator can Body Seizing another's body, while a Deity Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord can be reborn by shedding blood.

These drops of blood might not be from a Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord was injured, but rather from Dao blood deliberately left behind.

If a truly fatal danger were to occur, the entire Primordial Spirit and will of Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord might surge into these blood vessels, causing them to flee swiftly. Therefore, they should not be approached rashly.

At this moment, Seven-eyed True Lord, who seemed to have also observed the Battlefield in the sky, flashed seven-colored light in his eyes and said solemnly, "It seems that the battle between the Spirit Transformation seniors will soon have a result."

Mo Jiazheng nodded and said, "If Spirit Transformation is truly focused on escaping and hiding, it is very difficult for them to be killed."

On the contrary, if a Spirit Transformation is pushed too far, the consequences will be terrible, and no sect can withstand such consequences."

Chen Dengming's heart sank, realizing what Mo Jiazheng meant.

If a Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord is truly pushed to the limit, he may very well seek revenge, taking many people down with him before he dies.

Putting aside everything else, just launching suicidal attacks on the top sects and even the City of All Immortals would be enough to slaughter a whole host of Nascent Soul Nascent Soul and wipe out any top sect that doesn't have Spirit Transformation cultivator in charge.

Barefoot people aren't afraid of those wearing shoes.

The loss of a sect being destroyed is something that no Nascent Spirit Transformation with a foundation can afford.

"Perhaps the encirclement and suppression operation will gradually come to a control and come to an end."

As for the threats from these traitors and extraterrestrial Spirit Transformation, they may not be resolved until the Shattered Immortal Realm.

However, can Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord also enter the Shattered Immortal Realm?

Chen Dengming had many questions in his mind.

These questions, it seems, cannot be answered even by our own Nascent Spirit Transformation.

However, the opposing Spirit Transformation cultivator seemed to know quite a bit of the inside story.

If we could catch someone to interrogate, things would probably be much better.

However, capturing a Spirit Transformation is much more difficult than killing one.

These are not issues he needs to worry about deeply for the time being; without sufficient strength, thinking too much is futile.

After observing for a while and confirming that no Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord were approaching,

The oppressive atmosphere gradually dissipated.

Everyone relaxed and returned to the spirit boat to do their own thing.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.

Chen Dengming did not return to his sect, but stayed in the City of All Immortals, which was located in the Four Domains by the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance.

The two clones he had previously created rescued many former captured cultivators and mortals buried in the ruins of the Nightmare Country in the Western Regions.

Just as he expected.

The few drops of Spirit Transmutation Dao Blood that he had been wary of that day transformed into human form within a few days, radiating astonishing spiritual power, and flew away.

If any cultivator were to approach rashly, or even consume the Dao Blood, their fate would likely be dire.

For a period of time afterward, Chen Dengming spent his time either cultivating relationships with some Nascent Soul cultivators or completing the reporting of the encirclement and decapitation plan and the handover of merits.

After completing these procedures, he left behind a list of the exchanged items, politely declined Zuo Qiu Ling's invitation to a victory banquet, and prepared to return to his sect.

Showing off is not something he wants.

He also didn't want to be known by the arrogant title of "Battle Longevity Lord Chen Baimao" and be fawned over by everyone at the victory banquet.

Although he hadn't cultivated immortality as long as these ancient monsters who had been State of Mind for thousands of years, his composure was no less than theirs. He had long since become indifferent to fame and pursued practicality.

On the Battlefield, one must strike with overwhelming force, displaying awe-inspiring power and leaving the enemy little chance to retaliate.

Once you return to your sect and cultivate immortality peacefully, you should be kind and friendly to others, remain low-key and composed like Old Deng, and avoid being aggressive or combative.

After retrieving the repaired upper garment of the Giant Deer Mage Robe from the Seven-eyed True Lord.

There will inevitably be some polite exchanges and a small token of appreciation.

The seven-eyed man's taste was similar to that of his Junior Brother, the six-eyebrowed man; they both loved the girl's bathwater.

However, the fairy bathwater was so fragrant that Chen Dengming himself couldn't bear to take it out; he only took out normal Water of the Underworld River.

Fortunately, there was enough Water of the Underworld River. Even though some of it was given away in exchange for Merit Points to help Dongfang Huayuan heal his soul injury, a considerable amount was still left over.

He presented two large buckets to the Seven-eyed True Lord as a token of his sincerity and gratitude.

Soon, they returned to the Longevity Sect.

Chen Dengming couldn't wait to summon his Incense Clone, and at the same time took out the repaired Giant Deer Mage Robe and many spoils of war obtained from the Northern Yin Holy Mother, and began to sell them...
