The Elixir Forms

On the command platform.

Qiu Xuanlong looked up at the approaching fire phoenix, his expression grave. "That person has taken action personally!"

Clang!

A sharp sound, like a dragon's roar, rang out. A point of mysterious light flew out from between his brows, transforming into a small sword that flew towards the fire phoenix. The sword grew larger as it faced the wind, transforming into a celestial sword that pierced through the air. Then, the wind rose and the clouds swirled, and the Sword Qi transformed into a dragon, riding the wind straight up to meet the fire phoenix head-on.

The dragon and phoenix met, flames roared, black water spread, and endless water vapor emerged, turning into clouds and mist, which in just a moment filled the entire world, enveloping a hundred miles of land.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers were plunged into a thick fog of war, where the sounds of fighting and shouting rose and fell, and flashes of fire, water, and gold occasionally appeared in the fog.

Meanwhile, in the sky, winds and clouds surged, fire and wind clashed, and black dragons fought each other, making the entire world seem as if the sky were collapsing.

'This chosen one is indeed not easy to kill!'

Fang Yu was not surprised at all. If Qiu Xuanlong were really so easy to kill, he would have been dead long ago. However, since Feng Yi was unable to continue protecting him in order to seize his fortuitous opportunity, he had the chance to kill him.

"Roar..."

Just then, a tiger's roar shook the heavens and the earth. The invisible sound waves dispersed the clouds and mist, and a red light pierced through the air. Then, a burly figure wearing armor and wielding the Eight Desolations Halberd descended from the sky, slashing fiercely at Qiu Xuanlong with the halberd.

' Embroidered Tiger certainly knows how to seize opportunities!'

In the blink of an eye, Fang Yu saw Qiu Xuanlong's face change drastically, and he shouted, "Protect the Emperor!"

Not far behind him, Tie Feng drew his sword and roared, "Embroidered Tiger, take this!"

In an instant, Tie Feng's sword pierced through the gap in Qiu Xuanlong's armor, and endless golden light burst forth from Qiu Xuanlong's body.

"You..."

Qiu Xuanlong turned in disbelief to his good brother who had been with him since before he raised his army, "Why are you doing this to me?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Embroidered Tiger arrived, his halberd slamming into Qiu Xuanlong's forehead, causing the helmet to cave in so deeply that it almost fused with the skull inside.

Above the sky, the black dragon let out a mournful cry, abandoned the fire phoenix, turned back, and transformed into a flying sword that shot towards the Embroidered Tiger, blocking its subsequent attacks.

Tie Feng had already distanced himself, muttering incantations as he tried to retrieve the flying sword that had pierced Qiu Xuanlong's body, but the sword seemed stuck, trembling incessantly and unable to fly away.

Just then, the fire phoenix swooped down and passed through Qiu Xuanlong's body, then pounced on Tie Feng, passing through his chest before he could react.

Tie Feng's body stiffened abruptly. He slowly lowered his head, only to see his body cracking like a spiderweb, like a red-hot porcelain vase. The next moment, his body shattered, turning into ashes. In his the Unseen, he remembered the words of the Moon-Embracing Sword Immortal before he descended the mountain. "The Great Dao is fifty, the Tianyan is forty-nine. This journey is nine out of ten times dangerous, one in ten chances. Are you prepared to die..."

"Ahhh..."

With a furious roar, Embroidered Tiger clashed with the flying sword that had spontaneously protected its master. In just a few breaths, he had dimmed the sword's spiritual light and reduced its sharpness...

Fang Yu flipped his palm, and the fire phoenix transformed into a bird, landing in his palm and merging into his body. It transformed into endless heart fire, surging into his heart meridian, which was completely separate from the Law Power the Golden Core.

As the inner fire entered his body, Fang Yu clearly sensed that his ' Phoenix Sets the Plains Ablaze ' Dao Attainment was constantly improving. Within just a few breaths, he had already understood.

'My Dao Attainment is paved with practice; I only need to find the fortuitous opportunity in the Purple Mansion of the West to elevate Phoenix Sets the Plains Ablaze's Dao Foundation, allowing it to ascend to the Purple Mansion, transform into Divine Ability, and advance to the Purple Mansion True Person.'

"Bold..."

Just then, an extremely angry voice came from afar, and a figure surrounded by lightning rode the clouds from a distance. Who else could it be but Feng Yi?

What enraged Feng Yi so much was that Embroidered Tiger's halberd smashed into Qiu Xuanlong's head, forcing the skull into his chest cavity.

The mysteries of heaven and earth were born, and Qiu Xuanlong's body became transparent like flowing water. At the same time, a strong wind suddenly rose within a radius of more than ten miles, accompanied by wind and rain, and a torrential downpour.

Is this the Tao?

Fang Yu watched Qiu Xuanlong's corpse grow increasingly transparent, seemingly turning into flowing water, and then looked at the torrential rain that was pouring down, a passage he had read in a book surfaced in his mind:

When Dao Attainment highly accomplished cultivator dies, he will "return the Dao to Heaven," or transform into spiritual soil and spiritual objects, or into barren mountains and treacherous waters, or into evil spirits and demons. Qiu Xuanlong's cultivation should be related to the Dao Foundation of "Winnowing Basket Water," which is also the Taiyi Profound Gate. After his death, this place should form a spiritual land stretching for more than ten miles.

As he pondered, Feng Yi had already arrived, his immense anger, coupled with the lightning surrounding him, further highlighting his power.

Just then, Embroidered Tiger tossed out a formation plate, which was the 'one-time use' formation plate that Fang Yu had given him.

The grand formation unfolded, encompassing True Person Fengyi, and countless mosquitoes flew out, enveloping her within it.

Fang Yu looked at Feng Yi, lost in thought.

This True Person Fengyi did not travel through the void, but came riding on clouds. It should not be that he did not want to, but that after being struck by that heavenly lightning, he could not escape into the Great Void, and his Divine Ability also seemed to have been affected.

"#*&#...*#&()@... As the law commands..."

Just then, Fang Yu heard a faint sound. He looked at Embroidered Tiger and saw him chanting incantations. A fierce wind and rain swept towards him and then surrounded him. A mysterious aura emerged from his body and continued to rise.

Fang Yu thought to himself, "Embroidered Tiger is about to advance to the Purple Mansion!"

He glanced at Feng Yi, who was trapped in the great formation, then at Embroidered Tiger, and at Qiu Xuanlong's vanished corpse on the ground. He had a feeling that something was amiss.

Qiu Xuanlong's death seems too easy. True Person Fengyi's performance was rather weak. Even after being struck by heavenly lightning, he was unharmed. How could a mere Purple Mansion True Person be so easily defeated?

"Boom..."

Just then, a sound like muffled thunder rumbled, or like surging waves...

The surging water broke through the great formation, forming a celestial river between heaven and earth. The river water surged and meandered, turning into a water dragon that surrounded the Embroidered Tiger. Standing atop that water dragon was Feng Yi.

"True Person Fengyi is the true dragon among the Dragon-Tiger Great Elixir!"

Fang Yu was startled and looked at Embroidered Tiger, only to see that his aura had been elevated to the Purple Mansion; he had advanced to the Purple Mansion.

"My Divine Ability are complete!"

Feng Yi said, gently beckoning to the Embroidered Tiger, "Come... come... come..."

Then, the newly formed Purple Mansion Embroidered Tiger involuntarily flew towards True Person Fengyi. Two forms, a dragon Dragon-Tiger Great Elixir, growing smaller and smaller...
