Tao Qian used a jade pillow to knock Fish Basket Guanyin down in the wilderness, he still standing while Guanyin lay down.

The beautiful woman's jade body lay before him, panting softly, ebbing and flowing like the tides.

If it were some lascivious lecher, what should and shouldn't happen likely would have already occurred, especially with the shameless effects of the Ten Thousand Desires Yin Yang Pillow causing ephemeral dreams. Even the most chaste maiden, upon being ensnared, would immediately lose her purity if the owner of the pillow harbored ill intent.

Yet at this moment and place, there was not a trace of any romantic atmosphere.

While continuing to receive various secrets related to the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva from the Divination Worm, Tao Qian took out the Evil-slaying Sword, intending to go for the kill, while inwardly cursing:

"This woman is truly too fierce."

"She regards all living beings like fish and meat. If the Immortal Fish Daoist Li Wanshou had encountered her earlier, he might have been skinned and made into fish stew."

"If I were to forcefully enjoy pleasure with her, I would surely be chased to the ends of the earth, even my true body would be implicated."

"I might as well take advantage of the situation and kill now."

A demon child truly is a demon child.

Once decided, there was no hesitation; the Evil-slaying Sword had emerged from its treasure bag, its fine sword tooth brimming with killing intent.

But just at that moment, forewarning came from the Divination Worm.

Tao Qian glanced at it, his expression changing immediately, he exclaimed: "Not good, the Bodhisattva is about to reveal her true form. I'll take my leave first."

Even as he spoke, his figure swayed, and next he had already moved a hundred miles away, completely departing from Langya County's territory. One more breath, and he could escape thousands of miles away.

But for just this one breath, Fish Basket Guanyin would not allow it.

This avatar of the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva, upon falling into an ephemeral dream, had already been enraged, initially intending to cast a spell to escape. However, the Ten Thousand Desires Yin Yang Pillow is not to be underestimated, being the accompanying spiritual treasure of the God Demon Yin Yang Elder. Even if the true body of the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva were struck by it, it would not feel good, much less just an avatar.

Ordinary techniques could not break through it, so Fish Basket Guanyin had to reveal her true form.

Yet doing so would come at a cost. If entangled for too long, the divine energy would be completely locked onto by the Search God Realm's Heavenly Dao, and this avatar could no longer leave the Search God Realm.

She originally came to plunder resources and benefits, getting trapped within would mean a loss.

However, at this time, she could not be concerned with these things.

The authentic Fish Basket Guanyin refined by the Great Master appears sacred and pure in its true form as well.

However, this Fish Basket is a counterfeit by the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva, naturally quite different.

One could see the vast purple and black evil light erupting, as a female God Demon, a thousand feet tall, awakened from the ephemeral dream. This God Demon's body is indeed elegant, with little clothing to conceal it, but anyone who sees it would likely have no lustful thoughts.

This is because this God Demon, apart from having purple and black skin, is adorned with skulls, human skin, dried flesh, ashes... and other evil objects.

Seeing Tao Qian escape, Fish Basket Guanyin laughed in disdain:

"You despicable demon brat!"

"If I let you escape, my many years of cultivation would be in vain."

"Today, even if I risk a loss, I must skin you alive."

This Guanyin Demon was obviously furious beyond words, disregarding everything else, as she threw the Fish Basket, evil light surged like a sea, filling thousands of miles of territory in an instant.

Tao Qian had no time to react, his body was already within the Fish Basket.

At the same time, the Divination Worm conveyed the secrets it had observed: "This treasure is called the Ci'en Basket, a remarkable artifact, woven from the 'Child Bamboo' of the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, an innate treasure taken from the All Heavens Buddhist Sacred Land by the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva before her rebellion. Its power is unparalleled, able to expand or contract at will. When large, it can contain the waters of the Four Seas, even those cultivated with the Heart Light Escape Technique may not escape it."

In the blink of an eye, upon seeing this, Tao Qian raised his head, and could see Fish Basket Guanyin lowering her head to look at him.

Under her ribs, lumps of flesh swelled, bursting open to reveal pairs of purple-black arms. Each arm took out weapons like knives, hammers, chisels, and needles from the Fish Basket, it appeared she intended to fulfill her promise, to skin and draw the sinews of Tao Qian, this Secret Demon Child who dared to desecrate her.

"Truly a fierce woman."

"But Bodhisattva, no need to boast first, whether you can detain me still depends on your means."

With these words, Tao Qian chuckled as he flicked his sleeve.

Accompanying the flashing demon light, strange rustling sounds came continuously, and slender, eerie hunting dogs emerged.

In an instant, they gnawed through the walls inside the Fish Basket.

Tao Qian also slipped out like a sly fish through the gap, in the blink of an eye heading to his county.

This scene happened too fast, even Fish Basket Guanyin did not react in time.

But with her sharp eye, she recognized what those thin dogs were.

Precisely because of this, Guanyin was even more startled and said:

"Source Sea Demon Dog?"

"This demon brat, can he actually drive Source Sea Demon Dogs to serve him?"

"No, this is definitely not possible, there's some trickery involved?"

It must be said, Fish Basket Guanyin's insight was stronger than some Secret Demon Childs.

Earlier in the Secret Demon Main Path, many demon children saw Tao Qian use demon dogs to fight enemies and truly believed he had completely tamed the demon dogs.

Though seeing something amiss, Fish Basket Guanyin still couldn't detain Tao Qian.

This lad was indeed slippery.

And at this juncture, this Guanyin faced a choice:

Firstly, to give up retrieving the field, and immediately leave the Search God Realm to cut losses while there was still time.

Secondly, to continue the pursuit, at the cost of the avatar's true form being revealed, the divine energy completely exposed. With ten more breaths, she would be marked by the Search God Realm's Heavenly Dao, detained within the realm, and unable to escape, truly a case of losing the woman and forfeiting the soldiers, an enormous loss for Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva.

The All Heavens Gods and Demons enter the Search God Realm to plunder, not for charity.

Fish Basket Guanyin didn't expect that even personally chasing wouldn't yield results, delaying the "Enlightenment of Eight Million People" task as well.

According to reason, Mind should return, and He should leave.

Yet, at this very moment, a cheeky voice came from afar:

"Tsk tsk, though Bodhisattva is fierce, in dreams She is gentle as a maiden."

"Such a beautiful image should be replicated by the Image Retention Stone a few thousand times, once I leave this realm, they should sell for a good price."

...

At this instant, Fish Basket Guanyin, who was about to escape the Search God Realm, halted.

The substantial killing intent poured down like a crimson heavenly waterfall.

Good heavens!

Tao Buddha's son effortlessly became the first cultivator in the Great Abyss Origin Sea to threaten the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva with images of an Ephemeral Dream.

Even for Secret Demon Child, this method is truly wild.

Naturally, Fish Basket Guanyin stayed.

She said nothing, not even willing to retract Her "true form," Her mind echoed with a divine edict from the main body:

Kill him!

At all costs, grind this little demon to dust.

Poor Great Master Tao had not really faced the [Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva] yet, but their avatars had already become mortal enemies.

If someday the relationship between the main body and the avatar is exposed, this evil bodhisattva, who dares to steal even the Buddha's Tooth, might be the first to rush towards the Longevity Realm, blocking Penglai Sea, demanding Tao Qian to take responsibility.

This scene had not yet occurred, but the Fish Basket Guanyin, revealing her female divine-demon form, had already begun madly hunting Tao Buddha's son within the Liang Country territory of the Search God Realm.

Ten breaths!

In just ten breaths, Fish Basket Guanyin had cast countless divine power skills, pulling out numerous divine weapons from that fish basket, Source Sea Treasures.

However, still unable to achieve success.

Tao Buddha's son had also regained cultivation, with Perfect Ultimate Happiness adding to the secret demon means cultivated by Great Master Tao over three years, not to mention the Source Sea Demon Dog and other external tricks, he hadn't even used [Evil-slaying Sword], easily managing this ten breaths of time.

When the hour arrived, a special celestial phenomenon appeared.

Tao Qian turned back to look, witnessing that purple-black-skinned female divine-demon chasing him, seemingly suddenly suppressed, originally high above, the seemingly intangible divinity abruptly pulled down, becoming highly solidified, fully integrated with the Search God Realm.

Seeing this, Tao Buddha's son seemed afraid Fish Basket Guanyin wouldn't hate him enough, pointing at the giantess-like Guanyin, laughing heartily in mockery:

"Good Bodhisattva!"

"The junior did not know the charm of oneself is so great, causing the Bodhisattva to remember so fondly."

"Willing to sacrifice an avatar, yet eager to spend a beautiful night with the junior."

As Tao Buddha's son continued to provoke the hatred of Fish Basket Guanyin, he also used the Divination Worm to directly demand benefits from the Search God Realm Heavenly Dao, attempting to pull it down again.

All sorts of demon thoughts poured towards the honest Heavenly Dao Origin.

"My good elder, never made such profitable deals, I presume."

"Though [Fish Basket Guanyin] has yet to be fully captured, She is thoroughly locked inside the realm, already considered wasted in the pot, sooner or later ready to consume."

"Quickly offer me benefits in return, sign contracts, fools like this are an endless supply."

All this effort Tao Buddha's son spent, arduously trying to corrupt the Search God Realm Heavenly Dao, naturally aims for a great gain.

The Search God Realm must die!

This fact is known to everyone.

The many gods and demons entering the realm, alongside numerous Daoist lineage seeds like "Secret Demon Child," are here to seize the inheritance.

Some with open schemes, others with conspiracies, each having their own methods.

But what Tao Qian pursues is the filthiest.

He intends to fully gain the trust of the Search God Realm Heavenly Dao!

Once successful, on the day of the world collapse, the Heavenly Dao will surely hand over all "inheritance" to him, the sole guardian.

The other Daoist lineages and gods will end up empty-handed.

To take, one must first give.

This is why Tao Buddha's son chose to play the sole "honest man" before the Search God Realm Heavenly Dao, instead of being a notorious little demon.

Alas, corrupting an honest and upright Heavenly Dao, how could it be easy?

Dirty demon thoughts surged, but no response was received.

Seeing this, Tao Qian did not feel discouraged.

First glanced again at the approaching [Fish Basket Guanyin], chuckling, then suddenly turned to look at the Liang Country territory, where two other major forces were battling fiercely.

Red Rope Army!

Heavenly Talisman Army!

Those polluted clans, now uncaringly regarded by Tao Buddha's son.

What truly attracted him were the two powerful gods and demons standing behind them.

"Emperor Heavenly Talisman, along with a Red Rope God, if able to lure each of their divine avatars to enter the realm... Even if still unable to corrupt the Search God Realm Heavenly Dao, it can leverage power against power, divert disasters, seize some good things, refine some divine skills, gain some treasures."

"Originally, such a dance on the knife edge act of courting death is unsuitable for I, but with Divination Worm assistance this time, not walking some shortcuts is truly wasteful."
