Extra: Kill the Chicken to Warn the Monkeys!

The Flame Dragon Domain.

Scarlet Snow Holy City, one of the eight Holy City of the Dao Alliance.

"So beautiful." The two Dao Lord flew side by side and saw the huge city built on the clouds in the distance.

The Scarlet Snow Holy City is incredibly beautiful, with countless palaces and caves stretching across the entire city. And above the Holy City, countless pale red snowflakes perpetually drift, making it even more breathtaking.

"Brother Tie Xuan, didn't you say that ' Scarlet Snow Holy City,' one of the eight Holy City of the Dao Alliance, is ruled by the infamous ' Scarlet Snow Devil Palace '? The disciples of the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace are all extremely evil and full of demonic nature; they are all wicked people... Is such a beautiful Holy City really ruled by these demons?" The young Dao Lord in purple robes asked through telepathy.

"Haha, the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace is indeed an extremely evil sect, but this is their lair, and also one of the eight Holy City of the entire Dao Alliance. Of course, they have to manage it well!" The burly ' Daoist Tie Xuan ' in armor laughed and transmitted his voice, "Look, aren't those drifting snowflakes beautiful? But among cultivators, there's a saying that the 'snowflakes' of Scarlet Snow Holy City are the blood of countless dead souls..."

"Then why did you bring me here, Brother Tie Xuan?" The purple-clad youth's expression changed slightly when he thought of the pale red snowflakes drifting in the sky, which he saw as countless drops of blood.

"Don't judge a book by its cover!" Daoist Tie Xuan explained with a smile as he flew. "Zi Yan, you've just become Dao Lord and need to acquire some useful magic weapons and secret techniques. Although the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace is evil, those great demons fight and plunder outside, so they have many good things in their possession. Many rare items from other Holy City, or treasures that the Dao Alliance has banned from sale, are also available in Scarlet Snow Holy City."

"If we flaunt our wealth, the demons of the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace..." Daoist Ziyan still hesitated.

"Don't worry." Daoist Tie Xuan patted Daoist Ziyan on the shoulder. "You are the second Dao Lord of our sect. How could I harm you? This Scarlet Snow Holy City is one of the eight Holy City of the Dao Alliance. Within the area covered by the restrictions of the Holy City's palace buildings, fighting is absolutely forbidden. No matter how strong you are, you cannot fight. Once you fight, it will be a provocation against the dignity of the Dao Alliance and also a provocation against the dignity of the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace!"

"Moreover, as the ruler of the Holy City, the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace must uphold this rule as long as they want to maintain their position in the Dao Alliance and the Flame Dragon Domain. Therefore, the Holy City is still quite safe. Even if some cultivators occasionally flaunt their wealth, they can be careful and it won't cause any problems. Unless it's a rare and precious item that would drive even the Eternal Emperor crazy with desire."

"I am merely a Dao Lord of the First Step, how could I possess such a rare and precious item that would drive even Eternal Emperor mad with desire?" Daoist Ziyan laughed.

Even if we don't talk about myself, even Brother Tie Xuan is only Third Step Dao Lord, far from being a great Eternal Emperor.

"Brother Tie Xuan, have any powerful figures ever made a move in the Holy City before? Anyone who dared to break the rules of the Dao Alliance?" Daoist Ziyan had only cultivated for a little over six hundred Chaos Eras, and this was his first time visiting one of the eight Holy City under the Dao Alliance. He was very curious about everything.

"The Three Great Sovereigns of our Flame Dragon Domain certainly dare to do it," said Daoist Tie Xuan. "Furthermore, if there are internal conflicts within the Dao Alliance, even Emperor of the Lord of the Holy City's level would dare to take action within the Holy City. The eight Holy City have a long history, having been established since the Dao Alliance, and Holy City rulers change frequently."

"Before Scarlet Snow City Lord achieved Dao Integration, this Holy City was ruled by another force, and it wasn't even called Scarlet Snow Holy City back then. It was only later that Scarlet Snow City Lord rose to power, and many sinful and evil beings followed him, forming a huge force. Once the force was strong enough, it naturally defeated the previous Holy City forces and occupied a Holy City."

"Oh, just like those Eternal Realms." Daoist Ziyan suddenly realized. "Like the recently risen ' Changsheng Dao Academy,' which defeated ' Zhou Guang City ' and occupied the Zhouguang Eternal World. I heard that the Damo Eternal World is also a force under the ' Changsheng Dao Academy,' and even Daoist Damo's Damo Academy was the predecessor of the ' Changsheng Dao Academy.' It's just that Daoist Damo and Changsheng Dao Lord have a very close relationship, so they didn't rename the Damo Eternal World."

The Changsheng Dao Lord and the Changsheng Dao Academy he mentioned are the most renowned figures and forces in the Flame Dragon Domain over the past few million years, and Daoist Tie Xuan is naturally no stranger to them.

Upon hearing what Daoist Ziyan said, Daoist Tie Xuan nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes. Changsheng Dao Lord was an extraordinary figure. He was the founder of the Zhou Guang City, the Zhou Guang Emperor. Although he was not as powerful as the Lord of the Holy City, he was still a top figure among the Eternal Emperor. It is said that he was killed by Changsheng Dao Lord with his bare hands. It's truly unbelievable."

Daoist Ziyan recalled the intelligence he had purchased, in which the Changsheng Dao Lord ' Zhou Hao ' always appeared gentle and indifferent, yet he was able to kill a top-tier Eternal Emperor with his bare hands despite being Dao Lord.

That imposing presence, that captivating charm, truly makes one yearn for it...

Daoist Ziyan was pondering this, he saw a dark spatial rift suddenly open in the distant sky, and then a man in white robes walked out.

"This man..." Daoist Ziyan couldn't help but rub his eyes and exclaimed, "Brother Tiexuan, quickly look at that man in white, see if it's Changsheng Dao Lord ' Zhou Hao '?"

"What are you thinking? How could it be such a coincidence?" Daoist Tie Xuan also turned his head to look with a smile.

The white-robed man glanced around and his gaze fell upon Daoist Tie Xuan.

"Hmm?" Daoist Tie Xuan felt a jolt in his soul, and his immortal power froze instantly. He almost fell from the sky, but fortunately, he was supported by Daoist Ziyan beside him.

"Heavens, just one glance at me and..." Daoist Tie Xuan's expression changed drastically. The white-robed man's aura was clearly not strong, yet he felt a deep-seated fear upon seeing him.

That sense of fear was even stronger than when he had seen the Eternal Emperor before.

Just as a lower life form encountering a higher life form will naturally feel pressure from the difference in their life levels.

"Boom~~~~"

A terrifying, overwhelming pressure erupted from the white-robed man, instantly enveloping the entire Scarlet Snow Holy City below.

The pale red snowflakes, which were said to never stop falling, all stopped falling in the air under this oppressive force.

"Who!"

Who suppressed the Holy City?

"Who dares to provoke my Scarlet Snow Devil Palace!"

In the center of the Scarlet Snow Holy City, powerful auras surged into the sky from the towering Demon Palace.

call.

One after another, figures flew up, the leader being none other than the Dharma Body of the Scarlet Snow City Lord!

He was followed by other Eternal Emperor Eternal Emperor, some of whom were Dharma Body, and others were their true forms.

The combined aura of the more than twenty Eternal Emperor clashed with the terrifying pressure of the white-robed man. Daoist Tie Xuan and Daoist Ziyan felt their legs tremble, as if their bodies no longer belonged to them.

"Whoosh~~~"

A flash of azure light enveloped Daoist Tie Xuan, Daoist Ziyan, and the other Dao Lord who were around the Scarlet Snow Holy City.

Then, the Dao Lord were suddenly transported to a place hundreds of millions of miles away from the Scarlet Snow Holy City.

"What's wrong?"

"What's going on?"

"Who is that man in white? How dare he provoke the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace?"

"More than twenty Eternal Emperor! This is the first time I've ever seen so many Emperor."

The Dao Lord discussed in astonishment, all staring in shock and curiosity at the scene unfolding in the distance.

Not only them, but many Dao Lord and even World Realm cultivators who had been cultivating in seclusion within the Scarlet Snow Holy City also emerged from their rented cave dwellings and palaces.

A powerful individual challenging the forces of an Holy City is a scene rarely seen even in tens of thousands or millions of Chaos Eras. It's a spectacle that these little guys, whose lifespan is only tens of thousands of Chaos Eras, will never encounter in their entire lives.

"Zhou Hao, you're courting death! You think you can provoke my Scarlet Snow Devil Palace just because you killed Zhouguang?" The voice of the Scarlet Snow City Lord, leading a group of Eternal Emperor, echoed through the heavens and earth.

The countless puzzled cultivators in the entire Scarlet Snow Holy City instantly understood that the white-robed man was none other than the most renowned ' Changsheng Dao Lord Zhou Hao ' in the last few million years.

"Is he Zhou Hao Changsheng Dao Lord?"

"It's him, no doubt about it. He looks exactly like the person in the intelligence I bought."

"No wonder he dared to so arrogantly provoke the entire Scarlet Snow Devil Palace. It is said that the Changsheng Dao Lord is currently recognized as one of the top three Heavenly Dao Lord in the Endless Territories."

"Even the number one ranked ' Wine Saint,' possessing a cosmic treasure, is at most comparable to the Lord of the Holy City. How dare the Changsheng Dao Lord come to the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace's lair and directly provoke more than twenty Eternal Emperor?"

The confirmation of the white-robed man's identity immediately drew gasps of amazement from countless cultivators, especially the Dao Lord.

They were all Dao Lord, each step a matter of life and death. If they failed to achieve Dao integration, no matter how strong they became, they could only live for 108,000 Chaos Eras. Naturally, they were looked down upon by those Emperor who achieved eternity.

Therefore, upon learning that the one confronting the twenty-odd Eternal Emperor Scarlet Snow City Lord was also a Dao Lord, they naturally sided with Zhou Hao Zhou Hao were worried about his bold actions.

Of course, many Dao Lord also showed excitement in their eyes, their faces turning red with excitement.

"Even if the Changsheng Dao Lord is defeated, I still admire him for daring to challenge the power of an entire Holy City alone."

"Right."

"If it were me, I'd die happy!"

These Dao Lord had very simple thoughts; they would be lucky if they could become Four-Step Dao Lord in their entire lives.

Therefore, seeing a Dao Lord dare to provoke the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace made them feel proud and exhilarated!

Regardless of the discussions among the countless cultivators watching the battle, the Scarlet Snow City Lord was still very excited to see Zhou Hao come alone to his lair.

The Zhou Guang Emperor, who died at Zhou Hao's hands, was also a top-tier Emperor under Zhou Hao's Scarlet Snow Devil Palace, and his strength was quite considerable.

Originally, Zhou Guang Emperor was dead and that was that; it wasn't worth asking Scarlet Snow City Lord to avenge him.

Although Zhou Guang Emperor was stationed in the Zhouguang Eternal World during his lifetime, he left behind a Dharma Body in the Scarlet Snow Holy City.

Before his death, the Dharma Body of Zhou Guang Emperor transmitted the scene of his battle with Zhou Hao to the Scarlet Snow City Lord, as well as the two leaders of the Dao Alliance and several other Lord of the Holy City.

After seeing the battle scene, the Scarlet Snow City Lord and other top figures of the Dao Alliance made a surprising discovery.

The energy Zhou Hao used in battle was different from the existing Divine Demon Path, Qi Refining Path, and Mental Power Path, and even different from the magical Three Powers Combined. Instead, it was extremely similar to the mist energy used by the ' Sith Clan '.

Who are the Sith Clan?

Ordinary cultivators are unaware of this, but the top figures of the Dao Alliance do know some of these secrets.

They were a powerful alien race that had fought and battled against their entire Cultivator Universe; legend has it that they were cultivators from another cosmic civilization.

Zhou Hao's soul aura and ability to borrow the primordial power of the Chaos Universe are undoubtedly manifestations of beings from this universe.

The fact that Zhou Hao could control the energy of the cyan mist meant that his cultivation method was different. This was an easy conclusion to draw, and it immediately caused a great stir among the higher-ups of the Dao Alliance.

As far as Scarlet Snow City Lord knew, several Lord of the Holy City and even Dao Alliance leaders had secretly dispatched powerful figures to Zhou Guang City.

However, those few individuals have better reputations, and they are worried that if they use forceful methods to coerce them, they will not only fail to obtain the method but also cause trouble for themselves, so they have not yet taken any real action.

But who is Scarlet Snow City Lord? He is the greatest demon in the Flame Dragon Domain, a notoriously mad and brutal figure among the Eternal Emperor.

He always gets what he wants in a straightforward and direct way.

So what if he's just a mere Dao Lord? Even if he's Heavenly Dao Lord capable of slaying a top-tier Emperor?

I'll kill you if you don't give it to me.

Aren't you afraid of dying? You must have family, friends, and subordinates.

"Zhou Hao, you're really courting death. I was planning to wait for my true self to return from the Yu Star Sea before going to Zhou Guang City to find you, but you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep," Scarlet Snow City Lord laughed.

"Feixue! Didn't you want my cultivation method? You even forced one of my brothers to enter the ' Yaohuo Realm ' for it. Now that I've come in person, what can you do? Come at me." Zhou Hao spoke coldly, but not a single word escaped his lips; it was all transmitted directly into the mind of Scarlet Snow City Lord.

"Sound transmission?"

The Scarlet Snow City Lord understood and immediately transmitted his voice:

"If you know what's good for you, let me search your soul. If I can obtain the method I desire, I'll spare your life. If you don't... your brother Ji Ning is trapped in the ' Yaohuo Realm,' and should be dead by now, right? If you don't know what's good for you, many more people connected to you will die."

"According to the Dao Alliance's intelligence records, you first appeared in the Black Lotus Chaos Kingdom of the Damo Domain. Given your monstrous talent, if you had been to other places, there would be a record of it. Your hometown is probably in the chaos surrounding the Black Lotus Chaos Kingdom."

"With my strength, with the strength of the entire Scarlet Snow Devil Palace, sweeping through the entire Damo Domain would not be difficult." The Scarlet Snow City Lord's smile widened, but his voice was extremely cold.

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm not the only one who wants your cultivation method. It's not something a mere Dao Lord like you can protect."

"You've allowed me to search your soul; from now on, you'll have the protection of my Scarlet Snow Devil Palace."

"If you don't let me search your soul, you, your relatives and friends, and your hometown will all face extinction!"

"I believe you are a smart person and will make the right choice."

A murderous aura permeated the entire sky above the Scarlet Snow Holy City. The Scarlet Snow City Lord and more than twenty other Eternal Emperor stared coldly at the white-robed man in the distance.

"Sigh..." Zhou Hao shook his head and sighed, "I thought that killing you would be enough, but it seems you're just a scapegoat."

Just as the Scarlet Snow City Lord was using threats and inducements, he had already sensed several hidden auras appearing in the surrounding void. Moreover, upon hearing that the Scarlet Snow City Lord was not the only one eyeing his cultivation method, he understood perfectly well what was going on.

"What did you say? I'm the one who sticks out?" Scarlet Snow City Lord laughed contemptuously, about to say something more, but Zhou Hao had already made up his mind to "kill the chicken to scare the monkey", so he wouldn't waste another word on him.

Wow.

With a single step, Zhou Hao's figure flashed, and he arrived in front of the Scarlet Snow City Lord.

The speed was so fast that even the Eternal Emperor, who was second only to the Lord of the Holy City Dominator, the City Scarlet Snow City Lord, had no time to react. With a contemptuous smile on his face, he watched helplessly as Zhou Hao pinched the crane's beak and gently pecked him on the forehead.

"Puff."

It was an ordinary peck, but even some Dao Lord World Realm the distance could see it clearly. That seemingly slow peck easily pierced through the head of the Scarlet Snow City Lord.

"You, you..." Scarlet Snow City Lord's eyes widened, still unable to react to what had happened.

However, the cyan mist energy had already impacted the chaotic space within his body.

His soul and spirit were punctured like a bubble.

At the same time, an invisible force, following the cause and effect, instantly annihilated his true body, which was not present.

thump.

The Dharma Body of the Scarlet Snow City Lord fell from the sky and crashed heavily onto the wide street of the Scarlet Snow Holy City. The aura on the Dharma Body was completely extinguished, and it was beyond dead.

"City Lord..." More than twenty Eternal Emperor of the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace stared at everything in disbelief.

They don't understand.

Even if his city lord's head, which was as sturdy as Eternal Divine Weapon Dharma Body, was pierced, he shouldn't die!

They quickly understood.

Puff puff puff puff puff...

It was just a simple, light peck from the crane's beak, twenty-three times in a row, each peck seemingly slow and deliberate, yet none of the twenty-three Eternal Emperor had time to react.

thump.

thump.

thump.

In the air.

Only Zhou Hao remained.

On the street.

The corpses of twenty-four Eternal Emperor lay scattered on the ground.

Zhou Hao glanced at the Scarlet Snow City Lord, who lay sprawled on the ground with her eyes still wide open, and said softly, "If it were a million years ago, I wouldn't have dared to easily reveal the secret of the Origin Force, otherwise I wouldn't have waited until now to kill Zhouguang. But now..."

"Anyone who wants to reach out should think about whether they can bear the consequences of having their hand chopped off." Zhou Hao's gaze pierced through the void, looking at the figures that seemed to be in another dimension.

Everything is Yunqing.

I really don't want to type...

After finishing writing yesterday, I felt a bit discouraged.

I really want to rest for a few days.

We'll continue tomorrow.
