Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog

Immediately, her vision spotted the youth standing in the void, hands clasped together, continuously controlling the eight chains devouring Yuan Wutian's life force and mana.

"Release my Brother Yuan!"

Tao Zhi shrieked sharply, taking advantage of the moment when Chen Ku seemed to be 'performing a forbidden technique,' unable to spare attention, she conjured an immortal sword and stabbed at the back of Chen Ku's head.

The killing intent from this sword was dismal, erupting with a resolve to kill, as if the power emanated from the immortal sword, possessing an extraordinary lethality.

"Tao Zhi..." Seeing the pink-clad girl arriving to rescue him, Yuan Wutian, who was trapped, felt both hopeful and surprised.

But he immediately saw...

Facing away from the sword attack, Chen Ku, as if he had eyes on his back, suddenly had a six-colored flame fly out from behind him, directly swallowing that sword.

"Six True Flames! That's the Six-taste True Fire of Fire De Sect's Xiao Li!" Yuan Wutian's expression changed dramatically.

Yet he saw that Tao Zhi's sword had already stabbed into the six-colored divine fire, and an awful scene unfolded as the keen sword melted into molten iron under the flames.

Furthermore, the flames climbed along the sword, burning towards her arm.

At the moment it touched her skin.

"Ah!" The pink-clad girl let out a horrifying scream as she watched her jade hand and arm instantaneously vaporize in midair by the flames.

And the fire kept burning relentlessly towards her body.

Seeing the pink-clad girl about to be burned to death mid-air by the Six-taste True Fire released by Chen Ku.

Suddenly, a strange fragrance descended from the heavenly dome behind Chen Ku.

In the next moment, a pink lotus mark suddenly appeared on the girl's forehead, leaping out and immediately transforming into a lotus flower, wrapping her body and flying towards the heavenly dome.

Chen Ku instantly raised his eyes, his eyelids twitching slightly:

"Fourteen Realms... The Master of Lotus Temple, still has the strength to rescue?"

Then he saw that drifting lotus flower floating along, finally reaching the ten-thousand-foot high sky, landing in the hands of a young Taoist wearing a lotus crown and robed in Taoist robes.

Looking at the girl encased in the lotus flower, he sighed softly:

"I told you not to come to the battlefield, yet you insisted on following, now you lost an arm, but fortunately I acted in time, once we return to the Cave Heaven, I'll mold you a new arm with lotus root."

"Master Uncle, please save Brother Yuan!" And inside the lotus, the girl anxiously knelt and pleaded.

Before the young lotus-crowned Taoist could respond.

From a piece of the void continuously beaten by the golden ocean came a voice:

"Still able to divide your mind to rescue your sect members and juniors, Master of Lotus Temple, indeed impressive."

The speaker was clad in armor that covered his face, the armor flowing with divine runes, exuding an aura of ancient sanctity as if the person was an resurrected ancient holy being in the present world.

He was Li Shentong, responsible for defending the north and commanding the army, holding the position of Governor of Two Provinces in the Daji Dynasty.

Yet he saw the boundless golden ocean brimming with unbelievable heaven and earth laws, however, this Governor stood like a pillar between heaven and earth, steadying the boundless ocean-like golden laws, causing the Master of Lotus Temple's laws to be unable to step past the city gate.

After speaking, Li Shentong's eyes beneath the helmet fell upon the armored youth who had captured Yuan Wutian, revealing a look of approval.

"As expected, the young general whom I hold in high regard has achieved such remarkable feats soon after graduating and arriving at the border."

The Three Star Cave's Yuan Wutian was known as a famed vanguard general amongst the Qi Cultivators Alliance Army, and now, falling into Chen Ku's hands at the very first meeting, it was undoubtedly a major victory. Whether this news reaches the rear of Ji Country or penetrates the core of Beiyuan after this battle, it would certainly uplift our morale and suppress the enemy's momentum.

"Even though General Li has blocked me outside the city, after all, you are just a Martial Practitioner of the Thirteen Realms, not enough to demand my full attention elsewhere."

The Master of Lotus Temple said lightly:

"I must admit, your Daji's Divine Martial Mountain Academy has truly not wasted its efforts in vain but indeed cultivated one or two heroes. Still, instead of worrying about me, General Li should rather concern yourself with your Great Fortune of Daji."

"Arrogant words, even with you, the master of Lotus Cave Heaven personally coming to attack, yet unable to surpass me, now with Prince Yong's return, driving you out of the Two Realms Mountain is just a matter of time." Li Shentong sternly responded.

"Hehe..."

The Master of Lotus Temple let out a soft laugh:

"Yang Han... as one of the three brothers of the Yang Family back then, all having received great fortune in the Martial Temple, bearing the Martial Arts Destiny, is indeed the number one below the Fifteenth Realm in your Daji. But do you really think relying on just one Yang Han can change everything? The Great Fortune has already made a move, I reckon you know, once the master of the Yun Dynasty acts, it's not about targeting a city or a pond, soon enough, I'm afraid your Emperor Ji, will crumble!"

"Presumptuous!"

Li Shentong roared, his blood qi surged sky-high:

"My emperor, Divine Literature and Holy Martial, is as eternal as heaven, capable of suppressing everything!"

Boom!

Between the heavenly dome, the clash of two world-surpassing powerhouses wielding power of laws and cave heaven's force, as if continents were colliding, causing the heaven and earth to shake, the sun and moon pale in comparison.

Below.

Sensing the earth-shattering radiance and qi mechanism cascading down from the battlefield of these true great powers, Chen Ku inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

The Master of Lotus Temple's move earlier had indeed startled him.

Unexpectedly, engaging the Mountain Master while still being able to spare attention, induced a huge shock in his heart, fearing that the opponent might extend a wisp of power to directly take action against him.

If a Qi Cultivator of the Fourteen Realms were to directly spare attention to attack him, not even the Blowing Fur to Soldiers technique could defend against it, even hiding within the Hero King Realm, the opponent still had the ability to tear open the Cave Heaven world, which was why he was so afraid.

Fortunately, the blood qi continued surging from behind the Mountain Master, putting pressure on, letting him slightly relax, understanding that earlier when the Master of Lotus Temple rescued the pink-clad girl, it was likely using a power already left on her.

Now, with no further interference.

With his hands clasped together, looking at Yuan Wutian about to be fully petrified, the Six-taste True Fire behind him howled directly towards the opponent, ready to engulf.

As for why not directly use the power of the left eye, once the power of the left eye of the Thirteen Realms erupts, it can instantly annihilate the opponent, and even after Chen Ku had acquired a portion of the Eternal Stone Man's physique, he did not fear the recoil of primordial qi entering his body, allowing him to quickly assimilate and enhance his physique.

The reason was simple, the concern earlier regarding the Master of Lotus Temple was the reason.

The power of the left eye pertains to ancient secrets and the origins of heavenly beings, directly exposing it in front of tens of thousands of allies and foes at the forefront of the two armies would not benefit him at all.

Therefore, it's best to keep the left-eyed power as a trump card, after all, the Six-taste True Fire and the left-eyed power share the same source, similarly allowing him to burn and devour the opponent's primordial qi, as long as he later uses the left eye to refine the primordial qi within the Six-taste True Fire.

Crackle~~

Once engulfed by the Six-taste True Fire, Yuan Wutian's whole body ignited, his primordial spirit consumed, the excruciating pain ripping through his divine soul and body making him roar.

Knowing he was destined to die.

Before dying, he gazed at Chen Ku, the last glimmer of starry light flickering in his eyes, he left his final words:

"I never thought that my entire life of cultivation would end on the battlefield, dying at the hands of such a strange and peculiar opponent as you."

Chen Ku's methods were too numerous and bizarre, entirely unlike those of a pure Martial Practitioner.

Yuan Wutian's eyes dimmed, but he was resigned, finally speaking calmly:

"I am one of the three Saint Heirs of the Three Star Cave. After my death, someone will surely come to avenge me, those two, my senior brother and my junior brother, are both true masters of the Three Star Cave, they will kill you, I'll see you again in the Yellow Springs..."

Accompanied by the end of his words.

Bang!

He actually willingly dispersed his primordial spirit, choosing to dismantle his body rather than endure the pain and humiliation of being burned alive by Chen Ku.

Woosh!

Above the heavenly dome, the Six-taste True Fire soared fiercely, and within the flames, Yuan Wutian's body completely vanished between heaven and earth, leaving behind a bracelet that fell.

Simultaneously, the Tao artifact horsetail whisk and the tablet-sized talisman in the sky also lost control, gently descending.

With a thought, Chen Ku seized these three treasures.

However, his gaze flickered.

The Three Star Cave...

Three Saint Heirs.

If he remembers correctly, when his elder brother went with the whole family to the Three Star Cave, he mentioned that his goal was to strive for the position of Saint Heir at the Three Star Cave.

"I wonder what level of cultivation realm my elder brother has reached now? How is the family doing?"
