CHAPTER 775: CHAPTER 650: THE RED GRANDSON AND THE GREEN GRANDSON

Shang Heyang said to Elder Cang Xu: "You, Elder, have attained the Dao for a thousand years, possessing immense divine skills and boundless mana, and you can’t have just me as your grandson; there are many grandsons."

Elder Cang Xu asked: "I have more grandsons? Where are they now?"

Shang Heyang pointed westward with his hand: "In that direction, a group of bandits has invaded the house and are wantonly massacring your other grandsons. Grandfather, please go to their rescue quickly; if you delay, it will be too late, and your grandsons will all be slain by the bandits."

Upon hearing that his grandsons were being slaughtered, Elder Cang Xu became furious. His anger flared, and his body enlarged until Shang Heyang, compared to him, was like a doll held in his palm.

He instructed Shang Heyang to navigate and flew swiftly back to West Pole Mountain.

At West Pole Mountain, the group of immortals was crushing the West Pole Sect.

Since the West Pole Sect was a "One God Sect," with all members worshipping only one True God, Elder Cang Xu, there were no other gods to call upon.

Aside from the twelve sect hierarchs, thousands of priests, dharma kings, and the hierarchs’ disciples and followers surged out, risking their lives to protect the sect.

Shi Feiyang’s side had brought too many experts, with several at the Heavenly Immortal level, including figures like Shaoyang God Monarch, Trap Void Ancestor, and Shock Mountain God Monarch. Although only Earth Immortals, their mana rivaled that of Heavenly Immortals. Except for the twelve sect hierarchs, taking down others was like slicing melons or vegetables—releasing their great weapons would instantly annihilate large areas, causing mountains to crumble and rivers and lakes to dry up.

The Kunlun Sect had trapped those five elders within the Heavenly Heart Five Thunders Formation. Besides Mr. Zhong and the five elders, Kunlun disciples like Yu Xiao, Huo Renyu, and others entered the formation, serving as Thunder Leaders, patching vulnerabilities, and unleashing more and stronger lightning, blasting the five elders into disarray and turning their disciples into ash one by one.

When Elder Cang Xu arrived and witnessed the scene, a torrent of memories flooded his mind, rapidly filling his entire brain:

Some were of him being killed, some of him being tortured by soul refining, some of people praying to him, and some of priests offering sacrifices...

Emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, fear, anxiety, and confusion filled his mind, leaving him unsure if he should be angry or happy.

Seeing him dazed, Shang Heyang urged: "Quickly, that’s your grandson over there, go save him!"

He pointed to Poison Dragon Venerable, the one he had the closest relationship with among the West Pole Sect people, and the main reason for convincing Elder Cang Xu to return was to save Poison Dragon Venerable.

At that moment, Poison Dragon Venerable revealed his lifebound divine demon, appearing as a five-headed Great Poison Dragon King.

The current cultivation level of Poison Dragon Venerable was not inferior to that of One Light Master back in the day. He had once been lost about his future and had discussed it carefully with Shang Heyang.

He wanted to seek out and fuse with the ancient Poison Dragon like the Red-haired Ancestor, but Shang Heyang stopped him.

Shang Heyang was strongly opposed to primordial spirit fusion because it drastically changes one’s divine soul, memory, and mind, essentially turning oneself into another being.

After much contemplation, Poison Dragon Venerable chose a more arduous path, developing his lifebound divine demon himself. His body remained human with five dragon heads.

Though called dragon heads, they resembled cobra heads, akin to the Naga Kings of ancient India. Translated into China as "dragons," in Buddhist scriptures, dragons, dragon kings, and poison dragons generally referred to this creature—a long-bodied, scaly, legless semi-divine being, one of the Eight Tribes, the leader of snakes. This "Great Poison Dragon" is the most authentic.

Poison Dragon Venerable’s five cobra-like heads all spread open, umbrella-like, baring fangs at Tianqian Mountain’s Xiaonan and Shock Mountain God Monarch, furiously spewing streams of demon light.

Within the demon light, torrents of blood rain, hail, demon fire, poison needles, flying knives, poison sand, poison dust, and poison wind gathered, dividing into twenty-five streams like a blood-red river, filled with various poisons, swirling and shooting through the sky chaotically.

With a heart full of anticipation, Shang Heyang hoped Elder Cang Xu would take Poison Dragon Venerable away, but instead, Elder Cang Xu caught sight of Old Ancestor Green Robe nearby.

Seeing that Old Ancestor Green Robe was short, with green hair and green robe, emitting madly green poison fire and mysterious green light, he seemed to complement Shang Heyang, the red child, perfectly.

Though Old Ancestor Green Robe was ugly, Elder Cang Xu did not consider him unattractive according to his aesthetic standards.

Already having a red grandson, having a green one would be seamless, but that multi-headed poison dragon didn’t quite fit.

Thus, he did not go along with Shang Heyang to save Poison Dragon Venerable but instead extended a sky-covering demon claw from the void, reaching down toward Old Ancestor Green Robe.

Old Ancestor Green Robe was besieged by Jiang Shu, Deng Bagu, Jin Xunu, and others, with his accumulated magical treasures over the years being destroyed one after another.

After arriving here, he chose three mountain peaks and marked them as his territory, where he planted various poisonous grasses and flowers, raised various poisonous snakes and poison insects, and cast spells within the mountains, turning it into a large "Gu Plate" to breed various poisonous Gu within the three mountains.

His Hundred Poison Golden Worm Gu had already surpassed ten million, far exceeding a million. When unleashed, they covered the sky and spread across hundreds of miles, accompanied by a buzzing sound, more terrifying than a locust plague!

Deng Bagu used the Snow Soul Pearl to unleash the Ice Soul Cold Wave.

She was originally supposed to be among the four great female disciples of the Emei Sect, alongside Qi Lingyun and others, and according to the original timeline, she should have ascended by now.

But due to a destined Fire Tribulation, she was burned by Shang Heyang’s Demon Fire, her limbs nearly reduced to ashes. After being accepted as a disciple by Shi Feiyang, her destiny changed, and she managed to avoid this calamity.

Originally missing this trial made it harder to cultivate the Yang God, but later she took on Shi Feiyang’s tasks, transporting water from the South Sea to fill the Tarim Basin, accumulating countless merits, and finally achieving perfection in cultivating the Yang God.

She could have ascended long ago, but out of her deep gratitude for Shi Feiyang’s teachings, she did not want to ascend before Shi Feiyang. She willingly set aside the thought of ascension to help Shi Feiyang face the upcoming Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation, and to ascend together with him in the future.

In fact, among Shi Feiyang’s disciples, Jin Xunu, Deng Bagu, Lin Han, and Shi Sheng have all cultivated the Yang God and are capable of ascending, but none of them have ascended.

Shi Feiyang told them that he himself does not wish to ascend, and the future may not necessarily be the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm, telling them to go if they should, without waiting for him.

Jin Xunu and Deng Bagu, among others, all unanimously decided that wherever Shi Feiyang goes in the future, they will accompany him, whether it ends up being the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm or not, they do not mind.

Only Shi Sheng is preoccupied with his mother Lu Rongbo, feeling quite torn, unwilling to part with Shi Feiyang but also wanting to seek out his mother in the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm.

Deng Bagu originally had hundreds of years of Dao Level, but she was stuck in fringe paths, only accumulating Mana without enhancing her Dao Level. After meeting Shi Feiyang, she turned to the orthodox Mysterious Sect, accumulating hidden potential and making breakthroughs.

During the water transportation and sea creation process, she not only accumulated merit, but in Daoism, Dual Cultivation of Life and Nature means that Life Skills and Nature Skills influence and advance each other spirally. Similarly, Inner Strength and Outer Skills are also like this, refining the inner aids the outer action, and refining the outer aids the inner cultivation, and they too spiral upward.

She used the Snow Soul Pearl to extract fresh water from the sea to the inland, while also using the essence of sea water to enrich the Snow Soul Pearl, refining twelve Ice River Cold Waves.

When the cold waves were released, each was a wave of freezing air spanning hundreds of miles, freezing the landscapes it passed, creating a world sealed in ice!

At this time, she released all twelve cold waves that intertwined in the sky, forming a confinement that trapped all the poisonous insects and evil Gu released by the Green Robe Ancestor, preventing any escape.

She intended to join forces with others to eliminate all these evil Gu!

Other Gu Worms were manageable, but the Hundred Poison Golden Worm Gu were incredibly formidable, able to endure within the cold wave for a while, continuing to fly wildly. Only after some time were they frozen stiff, but even then they wouldn’t die; once out of the cold wave’s range, they could revive shortly.

Deng Bagu then evolved billions of Ice Soul Divine Needles within the cold wave to pierce these poison insects one by one, though this reduced efficiency significantly.

The Green Robe Ancestor was shrouded in a mass of green clouds, radiating green fire wildly, crashing everywhere with the support of a Flying Sword Magical Treasure, and unleashing Hundred Poison Divine Thunder in an attempt to blast open the cold waves.

Jiang Shu used a pair of Broken Jade Hooks to entangle the Green Robe Ancestor’s Hundred Poison Immortal Slaying Sword, then used the Heavenly Escape Mirror to break his green fire and Corpse Transformation Demon Light. Jin Xunu used the Taiyin Qingning Fan to break his Hundred Poison Cold Light Barrier, Hundred Poison Shura Banner, Hundred Poison Sky Demon Great Method, while others simultaneously acted to forcibly trap the Green Robe Ancestor and his evil Gu within the cold wave’s forbidden circle, ready to work together to eliminate him.

Suddenly, demon light gathered atop the firmament, turning a vast expanse of sky red, followed by a giant demon claw extending from thin air, about to tear open the cold wave’s barricade.

Jiang Shu, upon seeing this, shouted aloud: "Everyone, be careful!"

He first directed the Heavenly Escape Mirror’s light towards it, a multicolored beam shot onto the demon claw, which melted swiftly like a wax figure under intense heat, disappearing in an instant.

Cang Xu let out a thunderous angry shout at being seen, once again unleashing his Heavenly Demon Star River, cascading countless red demon lights, filled with billions of demon thought star fires, interspersed with numerous demons, pouring down like a waterfall.

The light from the Heavenly Escape Mirror couldn’t hold off this time, piercing a hole in the waterfall, but considering the waterfall spanned dozens of miles, it was just an insignificant small hole.

Jiang Shu extended a finger, and the Broken Jade Hooks transformed into two hundred-foot-long dazzling rainbows, flying towards and twining at the source of the waterfall, where Cang Xu resided.

At this moment, Jin Xunu waved the Taiyin Qingning Fan, stirring up vast swathes of pale red light, like a stampeding herd of horses, directly impacting the waterfall. Instantly, the agonizing cries of countless demons echoed; the waterfall recoiled, star fires spewed, wantonly flowing.

The Taiyin Qingning Fan, ranked second among the four treasures of Lianshan, is especially adept at Demon Refinement, theoretically easily countering various Demon Path Magical Treasures. However, Cang Xu’s Mana is exceedingly high, and the Heavenly Demon Star River’s energy is overwhelmingly immense. Despite fanning multiple times, he merely caused the "waterfall" to scatter, but it continued to pour from above, returning to its unruly state in an instant!
