Lan Xiaobu just arrived here and hasn't figured out the specifics of the situation yet.

He thought Wen Shi was that guy whom he and Mo Wuji spared, thinking he'd definitely not dare to make a move if he saw him.

Unexpectedly, the pale-faced guy with Wen Shi directly used a hand seal to grab him, clearly intending to capture him alive.

As that pale-faced guy extended his hand seal and used the Taoist Rhythm to lock the space where Lan Xiaobu was located.

Only then did Lan Xiaobu realize this guy was actually a cultivator of the Open Heaven Tao Technique.

From this Tao Rhyme Space that locked him, it was evident that although this guy was much stronger than Wen Shi, he was definitely much weaker than that guy from the World of Gods.

Back then, he and Mo Wuji had been chased by that world of Gods' fellow into the Fog Realm. This grudge hasn't been settled, and now he's got someone to practice on, Lan Xiaobu couldn't be happier.

A weak chicken is still a chicken.

At the same time, as the hand seal locked the space he was in, Lan Xiaobu punched out.

Since it's a practice match, naturally the other side wouldn't use a Magical Treasure, so he was too lazy to use one too.

This was the first time Lan Xiaobu encountered an opponent of some calibre after perfecting his Great Dao.

"Boom!"

The Dao Rhyme collided in the Void, and the Space Law was instantly torn open; shattered Law Fragments exploded, and the Space Rules became extremely unstable.

The surrounding cultivators who were observing quickly backed away.

In this unstable space, once involved, one's body could be torn apart if not careful.

The violent Daoist Rhythm swept over, and Fang Luo felt as if his internal organs were being stirred by an iron rod.

An uncontrollable ripping sensation exploded in his chest, he forcibly swallowed a mouthful of blood, unable to resist this violent Daoist Rhythm, and was sent flying.

Still in the void, he still looked at Lan Xiaobu in disbelief.

It's just that his face was already pale, making it hard for others to notice.

Lan Xiaobu also felt a powerful force rebounding back, causing his Daoist Rhythm to waver slightly.

He was quite disappointed in his heart; this guy should have been someone from the same era as that top expert from the World of Gods, but still, he couldn't reach the purpose of being a proper match to practice on.

Lan Xiaobu stepped into the void, and his domain rolled out.

Realizing that Lan Xiaobu was stronger than himself, Fang Luo's regret felt as vast as oceans and rivers; could someone capable of taking away the Creation Dao Principle be weak?

He turned to escape, but the next moment, he found himself locked by Lan Xiaobu's Tao Domain.

Couldn't get away?

Fang Luo simply grabbed the Double Soul Bell.

The Double Soul Bell was offered.

Ding ding!

The Dao Rhyme bell sound exploded in the void, with infinite Killing Dao Rhythm rushing towards Lan Xiaobu.

Although the bell sound was aimed at Lan Xiaobu.

Once it was emitted, like a Soul Talisman hastening someone's doom, even the slightly weaker cultivators among the spectators vomited blood and hurriedly retreated wildly.

Wen Shi, looking at the embarrassed Fang Luo, was indescribably astonished.

Lan Xiaobu was very strong; he knew that long ago.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been possible to escape from the Endless Void.

Without Fang Luo's assistance, escaping that Endless Void would be too difficult.

No matter how strong Lan Xiaobu was, back then, he was at most on par with him.

How could he have become so strong in just tens of thousands of years? Even with the arrival of ancient experts like Fang Luo, he was still being suppressed?

Fang Luo's strength was something he had seen with his own eyes, and Fang Luo crushed him without needing to go all out.

Moreover, he also knew Fang Luo's origins, a strongman from the era of the universe's creation, and yet he seemed so weak before Lan Xiaobu?

Doesn't that mean he wouldn't even have the chance to make a move in front of Lan Xiaobu?

Lan Xiaobu still didn't bring out a Magical Treasure, but once again punched out.

Crack!

In the void, the Double Soul Bell's sound was abruptly cut off by Lan Xiaobu's fist force.

To Lan Xiaobu, the bell sound Dao Rhyme was like causing a mere ripple.

The numerous cultivators suppressed by the bell sound immediately felt the space loosen, and the feelings of anxiety and restlessness vanished instantly.

Lan Xiaobu's violent fist imprint tore through Fang Luo's Divine Power Domain and Protective Domain, imprinting on Fang Luo's chest.

"Puff!" Fang Luo opened his mouth and spewed out a bunch of visceral debris and dark blood, flying backwards once more.

When he crashed to the ground, he found Lan Xiaobu slowly stepping from the void to stand before him.

"You, you..." Fang Luo looked at Lan Xiaobu in terror.

Who on earth is this person, and how can he be so powerful?

Wen Shi, watching from afar, was completely dumbfounded. What kind of Tao Technique and opportunities could make Lan Xiaobu so powerful in just a short tens of thousands of years?

"Did I ever offend you?" Lan Xiaobu asked faintly.

"No." Every word Fang Luo uttered was accompanied by a gush of visceral pieces.

His Taoist Rhythm was also frantically collapsing.

He hadn't fully recovered initially, and now, after being severely struck by Lan Xiaobu, his slowly restoring Great Dao scattered once more.

"Oh, since that's the case, why did you attack me like a mad dog as soon as you saw me?"

Fang Luo opened his mouth but didn't dare to say it was because he'd listened to Wen Shi's words, sensing a big secret on him and Mo Wuji, and thus attempted to force it out when he saw him.

Of course, more importantly, to force out if Lan Xiaobu had taken away the Creation Dao Principle.

"Since you're not answering..."

Before Lan Xiaobu finished speaking, Fang Luo quickly responded, "It was because I wanted to ask about that red-haired fellow, and then I saw you talking to their people, so I thought you were with them..."

"You guessed right, we are indeed a group." Lan Xiaobu's tone was calm and unhurried.

"That was my mistake, and I am willing to pay for it. Whatever I have, Lan Daoyou, feel free to ask..."

Fang Luo's tone was urgent, each word was accompanied by some splinters being spat out.

Even his pale face turned slightly ruddy after spitting out a bunch of organ fragments.

Lan Xiaobu's voice remained unchanged: "I guess you wanted Wen Shi to perform a Soul Search on that red-haired Daoyou, right?"

"..." Fang Luo didn't dare to answer, as that was exactly his intention.

He couldn't say it aloud; he feared that Lan Xiaobu might perform a Soul Search on him too.

Although he was sure that even if Lan Xiaobu searched his soul, he wouldn't find much, the pain of a Soul Search was something he didn't want to endure.

"I am willing to compensate. It's better to resolve enmity than to hold grudges. I hope Brother Lan will show mercy considering we're both beings created by the heavens."

Fang Luo's words were cleverly phrased.

The implication was that as a being created by the heavens, killing me will come with heavy karmic consequences.

Should the people backing me come after you, it would be more than you can handle.

He used his status as a celestial being to subtly threaten Lan Xiaobu.

He intentionally categorized Lan Xiaobu as a celestial being too, even though he knew Lan Xiaobu couldn't possibly be one.

Lan Xiaobu chuckled, "Is being a being created by the heavens really so impressive? I kill celestial beings. As for compensation, there's no need.

I don't like compensating myself with my own things..."

After saying this, Lan Xiaobu raised his hand and struck Fang Luo's brow.

A Daoist Rhythm so intense it made the Heart Soul tremble swept over, and Fang Luo's eyes were filled with terror.

His worst fear had come true; Lan Xiaobu was going to perform a Soul Search on him.

Not only that, his Tao Domain was easily torn open by Lan Xiaobu.

"I am Fang Luo, Lan Xiaobu, I come from..."

But how could Lan Xiaobu hear Fang Luo's words? He was astonished by the Chaos Dao Vein in Fang Luo's world.

This guy's world had nearly a thousand Chaos Dao Veins.

Chaos Dao Veins, something Lan Xiaobu had always wanted but never obtained.

Even when he perfected his Great Dao, he only used a Top-grade Dao Vein.

Today, he saw almost a thousand Chaos Dao Veins.

These were exactly what he was currently in desperate need of.

Without hesitation, Lan Xiaobu swept everything from Fang Luo's world, then remembered something and asked, "What were you saying just now?"

Fang Luo was so angry he could vomit blood, and at the same time, he was utterly shocked.

He was a celestial being, cultivating with a top-tier Tao Technique that accompanied the birth of the universe.

Lan Xiaobu was just a latecomer; how could he open his Tao Domain?

Seeing Fang Luo not speaking, a Dao Thought from Lan Xiaobu directly rushed into Fang Luo's Divine Soul.

Fang Luo let out a miserable scream; his Divine Soul was torn to shreds by Lan Xiaobu's Dao Will.

An incense stick's time later, Lan Xiaobu withdrew his finger, a flame incinerating Fang Luo to ashes, then collected the Double Soul Bell that had been blasted aside by him.

He already knew Fang Luo's background.

Indeed, it was somewhat significant.

Back in the day, he and Mo Wuji passed through the Endless Void and seized two works of Creation Dao from a place without rules.

Naturally, they knew to seize the works of Creation Dao, they had to pass through a rule-less canyon.

And within that rule-less canyon, there was a top-tier figure.

If that guy wasn't in seclusion, he was in a slumber of the Divine Soul.

The Creation Dao works they took were surely related to that top figure.

He now knew the name of the great figure deep within the Void Canyon, Zuo Budu.

This Fang Luo was actually one of Zuo Budu's dogs, specifically tasked with guarding those ten works of Creation Dao.

Yet despite having a Top Treasure protecting his body, Fang Luo was still trapped in a rule-less space.

He could sense the Creation Dao works being taken, yet he had no means to stop it.

Until the last four works of Creation Dao were taken away again, he finally broke free from his restraints.

Fang Luo knew better than anyone, if he didn't find those Creation Dao works, he was doomed.

Zuo Budu would not spare him.

It didn't matter if those Creation Dao works were taken, because Zuo Budu left those works to be taken.

But they couldn't be taken while Zuo Budu was perfecting his Great Dao.

So he saved Wen Shi and took him out of the Endless Void.

His only mission was to find out for Zuo Budu who had taken those Creation Dao works.

Both Lan Xiaobu and Mo Wuji, having entered the rule-less space, were people Fang Luo needed to find.

Lan Xiaobu chuckled coldly in his heart, Zuo Budu.

He came to the Fog Realm this time, originally wanting to revisit the Endless Void.

Weren't there a few more works of Creation Dao there? He intended to take them too.

The Creation Dao works were no big deal; he could now refine works of Creation Dao belonging to his own Tao Domain.

He just didn't enjoy being manipulated with Creation Dao works.

Zuo Budu had meticulously lured people into the Endless Void to acquire Creation Dao works, clearly hiding something.

Since Zuo Budu loved to have the Creation Dao works taken, he might as well take them all.

(Goodnight, Fellow Daoist!)
