King Baiqiu wasn’t foolish.

Activating his true form’s real reason wasn’t to better take a beating, but because defense and power would massively increase.

Beast transformation into human form was just for convenience. Only after manifesting the true form could one truly unleash full strength.

Sure enough, enduring Jun Changxiao’s and Xiao Longlong and Little Demon Fairy’s sneak attacks, King Baiqiu’s surface showed faint injury marks, but his internal body had no major issues.

“Whoosh whoosh!”

Both fists held together fiercely bombarded the spatial barrier.

What King Baiqiu needed to do now wasn’t fight, but break the formation as quickly as possible and escape this disadvantageous situation!

Five Absolutes Evil Saint’s strength was comparable to his.

There was also Jun Changxiao’s shells and Xiao Longlong and Little Demon Fairy constantly serving him.

Let alone King Baiqiu—even if it were King Qianqiu, over time he’d also meet tragedy.

“BOOM!”

After manifesting his true form, his power increased significantly. One punch bombarding the barrier brought stronger tremors than before!

“Sect Master!”

Zhen Dejun transmitted: “Can’t hold much longer!”

The Dragon-Imprisoning Grand Formation’s function lay in imprisoning. If the opponent continuously used powerful force to bombard it, it would definitely shake the foundation.

“Swoosh!”

Ding Xingwang charged over, about to unleash palm strikes!

“Whoosh whoosh—”

A large hand carrying violent wind swung over.

“Swoosh!”

Ding Xingwang urgently dodged, his brow slightly furrowed as he thought: “This guy’s power is stronger than before!”

“Die!”

King Baiqiu’s other large hand spread open, bombarding toward Xiao Longlong and Little Demon Fairy in the distance.

With his massive body and in an enraged state, this palm’s speed was extremely fast!

Little Demon Fairy was about to spread her wings to protect herself.

“Scram!”

Xiao Longlong kicked her face, sending her flying away.

The entire process happened in a flash. At this moment, the large hand was already pressing down with infinite force.

“BOOM!”

“BOOM—”

The flying Little Demon Fairy barely stabilized, covering her face in fury: “You dare kick me…”

The voice stopped abruptly.

Because Xiao Longlong was now sunken several zhang underground.

That young face was twisted to the extreme, clearly having suffered injuries from enduring King Baiqiu’s palm!

He kicked me to save me?

Xiao Longlong said quite annoyedly: “I told you… you’re… a burden…”

“Whoosh whoosh!”

Just then, King Baiqiu’s foot viciously stomped down.

Ding Xingwang could rescue in time, but just as he was about to charge over, he stopped, because…

“Stomp.”

The Purple Scale Demon King stopped before Xiao Longlong, looking up with a cold smile: “Baiqiu brat, this king will meet you!”

“Defeated subordinate, die!”

King Baiqiu’s footprint contained even stronger force!

“BOOM!”

Just then, the Purple Scale Demon King’s clothing and pants exploded, revealing his robust body. Both palms fiercely raised up, an extremely dense momentum erupting!

Basic operation, no need for six.

“BOOM—”

The heavy, violent footprint was directly caught by the Purple Scale Demon King, who then roared and flew upward while holding the force.

“Thump thump thump!”

King Baiqiu retreated several steps on one foot, surprise appearing in his eyeball.

This defeated subordinate’s aura was far inferior to last time—how could he withstand his own foot and even lift it!

If forced to give an explanation, it was that the Purple Scale Demon King was now a member of the Ancient Myriad Sect—he had recharged his account!

“Swoosh!”

Just then, Five Absolutes Evil Saint came around from behind: “Five Absolutes Palm!”

“Whoosh whoosh!”

Evil aura frantically erupted, gathering into a palm strike containing five types of force that pressed down like Mount Tai!

“BOOM!”

King Baiqiu’s massive body couldn’t dodge at all and immediately endured the palm strike bombardment. Five types of evil energy force penetrated his body, beginning deep-level destruction!

Old Ding’s Five Absolutes Palm’s formidable aspect lay in being able to penetrate internally, thereby producing powerful destruction. Even thick-skinned spirit beasts were no exception.

“Hiss!”

Five types of evil energy were like surging floods sweeping through his body. Though King Baiqiu could still resist, his face had already twisted.

The Purple Scale Demon King leaped up, his eyes cold: “Before this king, you don’t deserve to be called king!”

“BOOM!”

One fist fiercely bombarded King Baiqiu’s large head, directly blasting him into continuous retreat, nearly sitting down on his rear.

Though this was more due to Five Absolutes evil energy disrupting the opponent, having been tempered thousands of times in the Ancient Myriad Sect, the Purple Scale Demon King’s power had become more explosive!

Without a doubt.

As long as he recovered to his pre-sealed state, his strength would only be stronger.

This was the real, tangible benefit of joining the Ancient Myriad Sect.

Don’t think the Purple Scale Demon King did it for that meal, for mid-grade Beast Pills—he was actually always enduring, always using Jun Changxiao to strengthen himself… Can’t keep making this up.

“Five Absolutes Palm!”

Ding Xingwang once again condensed a palm strike and bombarded!

“BOOM!”

This palm pressed down, and King Baiqiu finally couldn’t hold on and directly sat on the ground. The five types of toxins in his body instantly broke through layer after layer of defenses, beginning to disrupt his five viscera and six bowels, even charging straight toward his sea of consciousness area!

“Everyone get out of the way!”

Xiao Longlong shakily stood up from the deep crater, roaring: “I’m going to burn it to death!”

Old Ding and the Purple Scale Demon King urgently dodged away.

Xiao Longlong raised his hand. Scorching flames spread out, instantly gathering around King Baiqiu, forming a violent wind vortex.

“Dragon Flame Storm!”

“Whoosh whoosh!”

Violent flames immediately erupted frantically, forming a sky-piercing fire pillar. The temperature within the formation rapidly increased, causing Li Qingyang and others to condense spiritual armor to protect their bodies.

“Crack crack crack—”

The scorching flames produced intense collision with the formation barrier, beginning to gradually distort.

Zhen Dejun’s expression turned ugly. He could only withdraw it.

“Swoosh!”

The instant the barrier disappeared, the Dragon Flame Storm lost its obstruction and directly rushed skyward, looking ready to charge straight to the clouds!

Qian Buduo and others all widened their eyes.

Can someone tell us what’s actually happening in there!

“BOOM!”

Suddenly, an explosive sound came.

The sky-piercing fire pillar suddenly exploded, scorching air waves sweeping over, blowing everyone’s cheeks burning hot.

…

Deep in the mountain range.

Scorching air waves gradually dispersed, revealing a scorched area approximately several hundred zhang in radius.

Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji and others successively withdrew their spiritual armor, looking at everything around them, their mouths all twitching.

Xiao Longlong’s Dragon Flame Storm move was truly too fierce!

“Swoosh!”

Jun Changxiao dispersed the energy wall before him, exclaiming in surprise: “Dragon Flame Technique is really strong.”

“Thump!”

Xiao Longlong sat down on his rear.

Fully erupting the technique he’d learned not long ago consumed all the energy in his body. Now not only was he injured, he’d entered a serious weakening period.

“Hey.”

Little Demon Fairy landed before him, saying coolly: “Are you alright?”

“Burden in the way…” Xiao Longlong’s words stopped mid-sentence as his eyelids rolled back and he fell unconscious, his body also reverting to lizard form.

Little Demon Fairy picked him up, pouting: “If you weren’t unconscious, I definitely wouldn’t let you off!”

“Swoosh!”

Landing before her master, she tossed him down.

Jun Changxiao confirmed Xiao Longlong was merely unconscious with no serious issues, then stood and flew up, landing in the Dragon Flame Storm explosion area.

King Baiqiu had already entered human form, lying scorched black in a deep crater.

This guy had not only been severely blasted by the Dragon Flame Storm once, his five viscera and six bowels had also been seriously eroded by Five Absolutes evil energy. At this moment he was already in a severely injured state.

Being trapped in the formation and gang-beaten by the Ancient Myriad Sect without dying directly was really quite good.

“Can he be captured?”

Jun Changxiao took out the high-grade Master Ball.

Years ago he’d used it to try subduing the Purple Scale Demon King, but unfortunately hadn’t succeeded.

“Go ahead!”

Jun Changxiao flung his hand: “Master Ball!”

“Ding!”

It directly struck King Baiqiu’s head. As the Master Ball hit the ground, the Taiji pattern immediately emitted light, then enveloped and captured him inside.

Jun Changxiao was completely bewildered: “It succeeded just like that? He’s subdued just like that?”
