Xu Long's expression changed drastically, and a chilling aura emanated from the top of his head.
Our own curtain wall has been controlled by the Tuolong; it seems we can't wait any longer.
The thought had barely formed in my mind when I heard a muffled "bang," and the cracked curtain wall suddenly burst open.
The muffled sound seemed to explode in Xu Long's heart. Before the energy fluctuations from the shattered curtain wall had dissipated, the giant teeth on the outside began to crush him inch by inch.
The light before his eyes instantly narrowed to a sliver, and Xu Long could now feel a strong, rotten stench surrounding him.
The putrid stench was so foul that it nearly made Xu Long faint when it reached his nostrils.
At this moment, countless clumps of mud and sand were churning around Xu Long. When the Tuolong had swallowed up this entire area of water, its funnel-shaped maw had already closed.
The saw teeth closed around Xu Long's side, and he kept turning his body over in the mud and sand, while the putrid smell suddenly began to erode his mind.
However, at this moment, Xu Long's Magic Power was in extreme chaos, Xu Long, who was struggling, finally had a moment to catch his breath.
His face was still pale amidst the mud and sand, but a long-lost smile had appeared on his lips.
The waterspout overhead began to tremble slightly, as if some enormous creature was about to appear.
The Tuolong sensed something unusual in its subconscious.
The funnel-shaped maw began to close rapidly, and its long body leaped up from the seabed.
Beneath its body is a long trench, and a huge funnel shape is reflected in the mud and sand of the seabed.
The Tuolong's body soared high into the sea, its pale belly suddenly expanding as if to retract its funnel-shaped maw in an instant.
But Xu Long, who was at the bottom of the mud and sand, suddenly sprang up, and a roar that had been suppressed for a long time burst forth:
"Rise!"
The roar, accompanied by rolling sound waves, was finally released in an instant after being suppressed for a long time.
A peculiar energy suddenly emerged from within the enormous funnel.
The Tuolong's body, which was tumbling on the seabed, suddenly froze, and a huge arm appeared in the water.
The demonic face was reflected in the Tuolong's eyes, making it appear as if a giant had descended upon the turbulent sea.
Its majestic form rivals that of a waterspout, while the giant funnel of the Tuolong was suddenly lifted open by the giant's arm as it closed.
The outstretched arms, like two clamping iron pincers, opened a gap between the funnels.
Xu Long, still smiling as he tumbled through the mud and sand, leaped into the crevice.
The light before my eyes reappeared, and the corrosive aura that had been eroding my mind finally dissipated a little from my chest.
Xu Long's Magic Power was already in extreme disarray. As the Magic Power circulated through his meridians, it showed signs of becoming uncontrollable.
After escaping the giant jaws of the Tuolong, Xu Long instantly re-entered the seabed and began to descend again.
The Dharma Body clung tightly to Xu Long's body, protecting the tiny figure below it to its side.
roar!
A roar of shock and rage erupted from the seabed.
After watching that figure leap out of its giant mouth, the Tuolong, which had been restrained by the Dharma Body at the bottom of the sea, finally roared in anger.
A billowing stench of putrid odor burst forth from the deep, dark abdomen in an instant; this stench seemed remarkably solid.
As it burst forth from the abdomen, the Dharma Body before the gigantic maw was corroded.
The towering figure appeared somewhat ethereal before the enormous head of the Tuolong.
Just then, as the Tuolong stared blankly at the Dharma Body, its retracted maw suddenly opened wide.
A reaction force spread between the Dharma Body's two arms, instantly freeing the giant maw that had been held in place from the Dharma Body's control.
After the Tuolong broke free from the control of the Dharma Body, its long body suddenly rose from the seabed.
Xu Long below had anticipated this, and as the Tuolong's body leaped up, he immediately activated his will.
The body that controlled the Dharma Body suddenly bent down on the seabed.
Wow!
A whooshing sound suddenly rang out from underwater.
A black whip-like shadow, accompanied by a strong wind, flashed across the area where the Dharma Body was located.
The whip's movement was extremely fast; as it flipped, some afterimages even appeared.
The seawater in that area looked as if it had been instantly sliced open.
After the whip flashed, a conspicuous mark remained in the water.
As expected, as the Dharma Body bent its body, the Tuolong's long tail swept across Si'an.
Fortunately, Xu Long had anticipated the Tuolong's tail attack from above and bent his body accordingly.
After dodging a sweeping whip, the majestic body of the Dharma Body suddenly stood upright.
It was as if a colossal creature had been thrust into the sea, causing ripples to spread across the surface.
It sensed the unusual movement of the Dharma Body among the Tuolong above, but it remained calm even then.
Instead, he used his own body to suspend the Dharma Body, a sudden glint of cunning flashing in his eyes.
It already knew that Xu Long seemed to be trapped and could only rely on external objects to protect himself.
No matter how powerful this evil spirit is, it's only a matter of time before it collapses beneath its own body.
Once Xu Long is dealt with, even the most valiant Dharma Body in the deep sea will be useless.
Just as the Dharma Body was about to strike, a waterspout roared in from behind.
The Tuolong looked at Xu Long, who was coiled in the funnel at the bottom of the sea. At this moment, the Dharma Body was still on the wrong path, controlling the Tuolong's body.
Without the protection of the Dharma Body, Xu Long in the seabed would inevitably be swept away when the tornado roared in.
Just as both Tuolong were waiting to devour Xu Long once more, a thunderous roar resounded in their ears.
Even as the waterspout swept in, Xu Long remained completely still, his coiled body not budging an inch.
But a relieved smile flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, his aura had become relatively stable, and when he used his will to introspect again, the Magic Power in his meridians had been suppressed.
The chaotic signs from before had disappeared, and Xu Long, who was now entrenched on the seabed, showed no sign of being affected by the waterspout unleashed by the Tuolong.
After surviving a perilous and critical moment, the Magic Power within his body was tamed and stored in his dantian.
The two opposing energies, which had been closing in, have begun to stop closing in under Xu Long's intervention.
He has now stabilized his own realm.
Late Earth Immortal!
As Xu Long gazed at the oncoming tornado of water, a beam of golden light suddenly shot out from his eyes.
The straight golden light, like a bolt of lightning, instantly shot into the roaring waterspout.
The Tuolong's tail, hidden within the waterspout, was instantly locked in place, and a still-rising magic seal appeared on Xu Long's chest.
The magic seal was unleashed and instantly headed towards the waterspout, causing the Tuolong above to panic.
The cunning glint in his eyes just moments before vanished completely at this moment.
It seems it underestimated Xu Long.
It faintly sensed a violent aura from the magic seal that was unleashed.
That aura was extremely peculiar; it was a type of energy capable of harming the mucus on one's own body.
As the magic seal reappeared, Xu Long's body began to retreat.
The Tuolong was trying to change the trajectory of its tail swing, but at that moment, the radiation from behind was already catching up.
Just now, the Tuolong was hanging on the Dharma Body, but now it is the Dharma Body that is chasing the Tuolong.
Upon seeing the cold-blooded creature behind him raise its thick, taut arm, the Tuolong in front of him couldn't help but feel annoyed.
Its long body tumbled and rolled underwater, creating a rippled current that quickly circled around the Dharma Body body behind it.
However, the tail inside the tornado could not be pulled out in time.
A solid magic seal, carrying surging energy, suddenly rose up within the waterspout.
The hand seals within the waterspout were completely unaffected by the churning water.
When the hand seal came into contact with the swirling water, it gently plunged in, but its target was the Tuolong's tail behind it.
When that whip flashed across the water, both Xu Long and his Dharma Body had to dodge it.
Once Xu Long's cultivation level stabilizes, the one he should avoid is the Tuolong.
As he watched the magic seal gradually shrink beneath his eyes, Xu Long retreated rapidly, a smile playing on his lips.
Imperial Edict!
After the word was uttered, the solid magic seal suddenly shattered within the tornado.
With a loud "boom," the seabed suddenly trembled.
The surging seawater was overturned to the side by a tremendous force.
Countless rays of starlight shot out from the shattered magic seal, catching a whip-like shadow within the tornado off guard.
Xu Long's magic seal was specifically locked onto it, and after the explosion, a huge shockwave was released from within the tornado.
The waterspout that had just swept over Xu Long was now imprisoning the Tuolong's own tail.
The long tail was enveloped by the shockwave inside the tornado.
Under the impact of one starlight after another, the long whip tail instantly appeared.
The waterspout beneath the whip's tail was swept up by the shockwave.
When the explosive energy surged forth, it completely overturned the entire valley.
roar!
The Tuolong roared in agony from above.
Then, as the Dharma Body pursued it, it suddenly pulled up its long body.
A thick tail was instantly swung out within the tornado's shockwave.
Under the strike of the magic seal, the tail, which had been so agile and nimble just moments before, now had some broken scales.
When the Dharma Seal exploded in the cramped confines of the Lajun, the shockwave energy released adhered entirely to the tail of the Tuolong.
Seeing his whip shadow become blurred and indistinct under the magic seal, a fierce light surged in the Tuolong's eyes.
This is how cultivators deal with ferocious beasts; it's truly full of scheming.
At this moment, the mucus on its tail was cut open, and turbid seawater rushed into the inside of its scales.
The faint starlight still clung to it, never extinguished, and the pain, like being pricked by needles and twisted by swords, constantly irritated the Tuolong.
After it turned around, it went to check on Xu Long's whereabouts and found that Xu Long was no longer there.
Even the enormous Dharma Body that had been chasing after it began to appear illusory.
The Tuolong angrily swung its head, and its massive head pierced through the Dharma Body's chest.
When it opened its enormous funnel-shaped opening again, the once majestic Dharma Body had now disintegrated into countless fragments.
Within the enormous funnel opening, a peculiar energy lingered, not yet completely dissipated.
roar!
The roar of the Tuolong erupted amidst the rolling, turbid waves, its fury condensing into sonic waves.
As they dispersed across the field, they caused countless drops of seawater to appear to boil.
After his outburst of rage, the Tuolong realized that Xu Long had been toying with him all along, and that his goal was the remaining energy in the valley.
After Xu Long withdrew, Tuolong, somewhat unwilling, rushed into the main vein to investigate.
The long-bodied cultivator, like a spear, instantly rushed into the shattered main vein.
It still didn't believe that outside cultivators could drain a place where spiritual veins converge in a short time.
However, after carefully exploring the area below the main vein, the Tuolong discovered that this precious land had indeed been completely destroyed.
At this point, the remaining energy was insufficient even for some low-level ferocious beasts to cultivate, let alone Half-Step Golden Immortal like the Tuolong.
In fact, these places where Xu Long's spiritual veins converged can slowly recover, but it will take a long time.
But this is absolutely something the Tuolong could never accept.
After thoroughly examining the main vein, the Tuolong finally began to go berserk.
The enormous head suddenly rose up amidst the ruins, and as the turbid waves surged forth, it instantly transformed into a muddy waterspout.
The Tuolong's body transformed into a black shadow within the flowing water. It coiled above the valley, while below, turbulent tornadoes of turbid waves swirled continuously.
The howling sound was mixed with the roar of the Tuolong, as if it were shouting, "Damn foreign cultivators, how dare you destroy this Great Sage's precious land!"
This was a precious place that I, the Great Sage, used to advance my cultivation, and you just ruined it like that!
The Tuolong grew increasingly enraged amidst the churning, turbid waves, its roars carrying far and wide across the seabed.
The Tuolong no longer cared about the slime that had been torn apart by the shockwave of the magic sign.
Its inner rage has been ignited, and its unstoppable momentum has completely destroyed its reason.
This Great Sage will surely tear you to pieces!
The Tuolong's roar was filled with boundless resentment.
Xu Long's Tuolong of severing the path to advancement had already imprinted the cultivator's aura firmly in the alligator's mind.
Exhaling a foul odor from its abdomen, the Tuolong suddenly swung its head.
A peculiar aura suddenly appeared within that thick, putrid stench.
The Tuolong's eyes flashed, and its cold gaze beneath the mucus stared at a certain spot on the seabed, where the rolling, turbid waves beneath it began to rise.
Hearing the endless roar of the Tuolong, Xu Long had already fled out of the Tuolong's territory.
The gains from this trip to the Tuolong's territory were truly extraordinary. The residual energy within just one main vein was enough for Xu Long to successfully advance to the Late Earth Immortal.
At this moment, the Magic Power within his body had reached its peak; all he needed was to obtain the Inner Core of a high-level ferocious beast.
Then Xu Long will be able to find someone to refine his own special Heavenly Origin Barrier-Breaking Pill, and from then on, he will completely step into the Heavenly Immortal Realm realm.
They will further increase their strength in the Vast Sea.
Previously, when dealing with the Tuolong, Xu Long was unable to keep up due to his insufficient strength and the fact that he was at a critical moment in his breakthrough. As a result, he was forced to retreat repeatedly under the Tuolong's offensive.
Finally, at the last moment, he stabilized his magical Magic Power, allowing his Dharma Body to be summoned. After breaking through the tornado, he immediately escaped.
