My filial piety will never change

Gui Yuzhen's barrier was pierced, and the spiritual power on his body lost its effect. A black line passed through his chest. His vitality was rapidly fading.

Her face turned pale, but her eyes revealed an unyielding will. After spitting out another mouthful of blood, she began to mobilize all the strength in her body, preparing for a final counterattack.

Zhao Yuchen's will was stronger than hers. His attacks surged like a tide, and each one hit Gui Yuzhen's vital points accurately. Gui Yuzhen's body kept tumbling in the air. Her defense had been reduced to the extreme, and each attack caused her to suffer heavy damage.

However, just when Zhao Yuchen thought he had victory, Gui Yuzhen's body suddenly stopped rolling, and her eyes became unusually calm, as if all the pain had left her.

Her hands drew mysterious tracks in the air, and streams of dark power surged out of her body, forming a huge black vortex.

"Zhao Yuchen, this is my last counterattack, you have to be careful." Gui Yuzhen's voice sounded in the vortex with a hint of determination.

Zhao Yuchen was also surprisingly calm, watching the vortex slowly grow larger and gradually swallow up his body.

'Returning the Body' was activated again, and the vortex surrounded Gui Yuzhen in turn. She no longer had any physical strength to resist. She could only wait for death to come.

Her figure loomed in the darkness, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she whispered: "Seeing you so strong, I feel relieved. If there is another next life, I hope to meet you again. I ask you to help me relieve my budding spring feelings..."

The scene of his passionate lovemaking with Gui Yuzhen was still vivid in Zhao Yuchen's mind. He took a deep breath and said, "I don't need to wait until the next life. I still have a chance in this life."

The Jade Maiden swung her sword, breaking the vortex.

Zhao Yuchen stepped forward and hugged her, injecting yin and yang energy into her, erasing the curse hidden in her body.

"Pooh!"

Gui Yuzhen suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood, "How... did you know that I was cursed..."

Zhao Yuchen said seriously, "Because I know everything about you. As soon as you twist your butt, I know what happened to you!"

I wish my brothers a happy National Day~~~

Chapter 191 Now is not the time for teasing

Gui Yuzhen pursed her red lips, unable to hide the blush on her face, "Now is not the time to tease me!"

"Yes, let's put the Spring Night Battle behind." Zhao Yuchen said meaningfully.

As the battle between Zhao Yuchen and Gui Yuzhen concluded, the situation on the battlefield changed dramatically. Those once ferocious divine puppets suddenly seemed to lose power, falling from the sky like dead flies, unable to rise again.

Seeing this, the Yuxuan Continent cultivators' morale was greatly boosted. They quickly swept away the remaining outsider cultivators. Without the support of top-tier combat power, the outsider forces' will to resist quickly collapsed. Some fled, some were defeated, and the scene was once in chaos.

"Stop the pursuit! Clear the battlefield immediately!" Zhao Yuchen's voice echoed over the battlefield. His figure was like a stream of light, shuttling through the battlefield and subduing those surviving foreign cultivators one by one.

Although the cultivators of Yuxuan Continent were unwilling, no one dared to disobey Zhao Yuchen's orders. They quickly changed their tactics and began to clean up the battlefield in an orderly manner, rescuing the wounded, and at the same time gathered those foreign cultivators who had lost their ability to resist, waiting for subsequent processing.

Zhao Yuchen's gaze swept across the battlefield. He knew the mastermind behind this war, the one manipulating everything, had yet to reveal himself. He had to find this mastermind to truly end this conflict.

With Gui Yuzhen's confirmation, Zhao Yuchen has learned the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes - Shanpi.

This mysterious existence from Shangxuantian has been secretly controlling the forces outside the domain.

It is precisely because of his help that the extraterritorial forces have many means such as top-level teleportation arrays and divine puppets.

Even the reason why Gui Yuzhen was chosen and the curse was cast on him was secretly arranged by him. It can be said that everything related to the extraterritorial forces is inseparable from him.

Mingjing Tianzun said that Shanpi was a master of the great way of space, and could travel between countless worlds without hindrance. However, he never participated in the disputes of any world.

The Demon Emperor Yindang revealed that the person who helped her, Shapi, was just an incarnation.

There may be some tricks involved.

Zhao Yuchen handed Gui Yuzhen and Yin Cang over to his harem and said, "I'm going to meet with Zhan Pi for a while. After you clean up the battlefield, go back to Yin Yang Valley."

Gongsun Ningyu said, "I'll go with you."

Zhao Yuchen shook his head slightly: "I can go alone. Master, you wait for me in Yin Yang Valley."

Gongsun Ningyu's eyes sparkled with affection as she said softly, "Be careful."

Zhao Yuchen nodded and his body disappeared into the air.

...

The scene changed, and he appeared in the Demon Emperor's palace outside the domain.

The reason why I could come here so easily is because I have the Demon Emperor Jade Plate with a silver bell in my hand. I have been guided along the way and my journey is smooth and unimpeded.

Zhao Yuchen's spiritual consciousness was like a big net, covering the entire Demon Palace. His eyes of insight penetrated layers of obstacles, searching for the trace of Zanpi.

"Zhao Yuchen." A voice sounded in Zhao Yuchen's ears. The voice was erratic and seemed to come from all directions.

Zhao Yuchen's eyes focused, he had locked onto the source of the sound, which was the corridor on the left side of the palace.

"Come on," the voice called.

Zhao Yuchen was fearless. He walked through the corridor and came to the deepest part of the Demon Palace. There was a huge magic circle here. A black sphere was floating above the magic circle, and a strange light was flashing on the sphere.

"Shanpi, why do you want to provoke disputes in Xiaxuantian?" Zhao Yuchen's voice echoed in the fortress.

"Because this is Xia Xuantian's destiny." The voice sounded again, with a sense of matter-of-factness.

Zhao Yuchen's eyes narrowed slightly: "What fate?"

"Conflict, destruction, resurrection, and reincarnation."

"You mean to say that you were behind the Ancient War and countless previous extinctions and continuations?"

"It's not me who's in charge," said Shanpi. "This involves the essence and cruelty of the Dao. Shangxuantian is like the core of the trunk, and the fruits on the branches are the myriad worlds. These fruits absorb the nutrients transmitted by the trunk and thrive. But this growth is not eternal. Once fully mature, they will wither and die, and then another round of growth will begin. This is the Dao. The only thing that cannot fall is the trunk. Only when the trunk survives can the fruits continue to reincarnate. And Shangxuantian is this trunk."

Zhao Yuchen took a deep breath and said, "I don't quite understand."

"You understand very well, but you just don't want to admit it." Shapi continued, "The Daoist order is constantly evolving, and it's evolving towards chaos. If the excess chaos isn't cut off, all worlds will perish. Lower Xuantian is the place where the reduced chaos is stored. You can think of it as a garbage dump. The same is true for the other worlds. However, the other worlds don't need to bear the garbage discarded by Upper Xuantian; they only need to trim themselves. So all of this is for the stability of Daoism and the various worlds."

Zhao Yuchen asked, "So when you travel to various worlds, you leave behind clones to help those worlds eliminate chaos?"

“Just follow the Tao.”

"Your so-called reason for not intervening in disputes is that you are the creator of the disputes yourself." Zhao Yuchen stared at the black sphere. "Tell me, are you a member of the Shangxuantian Town Dao League?"

Drum Pi said calmly, "Rather than saying I'm a member, it's better to say I'm the founder of the Dao-Suppressing Alliance. The three Dao Ancestors chose to protect themselves, but I chose to uphold the Dao. Only then do I have the right to be called a Dao Ancestor!"

Zhao Yuchen ignored his boasting and pointed at the black sphere and asked, "What is this?"

Shanpi smiled and said, "This thing is the dark core I brought from the chaos. It is with its help that the cultivators of the Demon Emperor's side have become so powerful."

Zhao Yuchen looked at the black ball and said, "There's one thing I'm still confused about. Since you're going to clean it up every 30 million years, why bother stirring up trouble again?"

“This is the Tao.”

"No, this isn't the Tao. This is you being afraid. Before the Ancient War began, the alliance between the gods and the local creatures, and the rise of the Yin-Yang Valley in modern times, are unifying the entire Lower Xuantian, and this trend scares you. Since the rules of the 30 million years of cleansing cannot be changed, you can only create disputes to stop this trend."

The sculptor was silent at first, then said, "Zhao Yuchen, you are the most promising person to appear in Lower Xuantian in countless years. If you wish, I can allow you to enter Upper Xuantian and join the Zhendao League. There you can pursue the supreme Dao rhyme. Of course, your little lovers can also come with you."

Zhao Yuchen said: "If I agree, I will lose this game."

Zanpi didn't know what this had to do with the game, but the rejection in Zhao Yuchen's tone was undeniable. He said, "You are rejecting the best future."

Zhao Yuchen said: "I only know that once I agree, my Dao heart will be torn apart."

"You will regret this."

Chapter 192 Let’s wait and see

Zhao Yuchen stopped arguing with Zanpi. Their philosophies were different, and any words were just a waste of time. What he wanted was actual action.

He mobilized his strength, and the Jade Maiden Sword flew out in a brilliant streak of light, striking the black sphere. Wherever the sword energy passed, tiny cracks appeared in space, as if even this world couldn't withstand this force.

"boom!"

A loud bang shook the entire Demon Palace. The black sphere shook violently under the impact of the Jade Maiden's sword energy, but it did not shatter. Although Zhao Yuchen's attack was powerful, it was obviously not enough to destroy the dark core.

The figure of a man named Shapi slowly emerged from the other side of the magic circle. He looked like an ordinary young man, pale and frail, as if a gust of wind could blow him away. But this seemingly frail young man held the fate of countless lives in his hands.

"Zhao Yuchen, you're too reckless." Shapi's tone remained calm, as if the attack had no effect on him at all. "I'm just an incarnation. Even if you kill me, you can't harm my true self in the slightest."

Zhao Yuchen said leisurely: "Sometimes, you only need an object to vent your anger, and you don't need to care about the nature of the object."

As soon as he finished speaking, several more sword energies were swung out.

Dish Pi hid and dodged, appearing behind Zhao Yuchen. He shook his head and said, "Do you know that what you are doing is only accelerating Xuantian's demise? You think you are saving the world, but in fact you are ending it. Without the cycle, no one can escape."

"Then let's wait and see." Zhao Yuchen turned around and pointed his sword at Shanpi. "I will prove that Shangxuantian is not the trunk of the tree, and the myriad worlds are not the fruit."

Shanpi smiled calmly and said, "Zhao Yuchen, we will meet again. Time is running out for Xia Xuantian."

After saying this, his figure began to fade slowly, like a wisp of smoke, disappearing with the wind.

Zhao Yuchen was unable to stop the clone from leaving, and his eyes fell on the black sphere again.

Dangpi actually kept this thing.

The dark aura emitted by this thing makes people feel palpitating, and it seems to contain endless energy.

If it is destroyed, who knows what will happen.

After much deliberation, Zhao Yuchen made a bold decision. He used the power of Yin and Yang to wrap the object, slowly compressing it, and finally brought it back to Yin and Yang Valley...

...

Half a month passed in a flash, and the sky above Yuxuan Continent returned to its former tranquility.

The invasion of foreign forces was like a sudden storm, bringing immense destruction but ultimately being repelled. The cessation of this conflict allowed the inhabitants of the continent to once again see hope for peace.

In this battle, the demon tribe led by Ao Bibi played a crucial role. Numerous and individually powerful, they forged a solid defense along the border and within the continent, repelling the numerous incursions of cultivators from outside the realm. Ao Bibi herself led the charge, displaying astonishing strength in battle. Whether it was a divine puppet or a high-ranking cultivator from outside the realm, she struggled to gain an advantage.

The beauties of Yinyang Valley also showcased their talents, using powerful spells and clever tactical strategies to neutralize the enemy's top fighters and divine puppets. Their efforts minimized the damage from the outside forces. Gongsun Ningyu, Shengying, Gu Lingling, Shen Suxin, Qingmeng, Ye Ye...

Each of them is like a Valkyrie on the battlefield, heroic and majestic.

Sophie and Huang Li also played an important role in logistical support and became a solid backing.

Particularly noteworthy was the addition of Fairy Lan Hong, whose presence had a crucial impact on the outcome of the battle. Under her guidance, the cultivators of Yuxuan Continent quickly gained the upper hand on the battlefield, neutralizing the offensives of the foreign forces one by one.

The cultivators of the Yuxuan Alliance also demonstrated unprecedented unity and collaboration. During this battle, they utilized the teleportation array deployed by Yinyang Valley to randomly point to protect the peace of the continent. Whether they were the elites of the four great immortal clans, the powerful gods, or even the lesser-known independent cultivators, they all fought for a common goal: to defend the continent. Their concerted efforts were crucial to victory in this battle.

……

As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot. Yin Yang Valley once again mobilized all its combat power to go outside the domain and take over the entire outside domain.

With the cooperation of Demon Emperor Yindang and Gui Yuzhen, most of the cultivators from outside the domain were forced to surrender. A small number of hard-core cultivators took some of their men and horses and left, lying in wait somewhere outside the domain, intending to make a comeback in the future.

The cultivators from the outer realm who were forced to submit were initially stubborn and recalcitrant, but Zhao Yuchen processed the dark core and handed it to the Demon Emperor Yin Yang, allowing him to use it to further strengthen the outer realm. Yin Cang continued to govern the outer realm, while a small number of Yuxuan Continent personnel remained outside the realm for communication purposes.

This move immediately delighted the monks from outside the region, and their hostility was greatly reduced.

Zhao Yuchen also asked some of the Yuxuan Continent's skilled communicators to work with Yindang to jointly research ancient history and counter the Shangxuantian purge. At the same time, he opened a special channel as agreed, allowing some approved foreign cultivators to be stationed in the Yuxuan Continent.

If this continues, within a few years, the Yuxuan Continent and the cultivators from outside the domain will be able to live together on the same land again.

Zhao Yuchen’s next plan is to go to Shangxuantian.

Some preparations still need to be made before then.

He first came to the South China Sea and sealed the spring of Shaxue Tianzun.

He threw a black bead to Shaxue, "Old man, this is the evil energy I collected during this conflict using the Shatian Jue. Although it's not enough to restore you to your peak state, it can at least give you a chance to break free from this seal."

Shaxue burst into tears of gratitude, "Good boy, I thought you had forgotten me. From now on, if you have any needs, just tell me, and I will do my best to help you!!"

The evil blood will refine the evil spirit in an instant.

The huge skull chuckled and began to move. After trying for a while, Shaxue said disappointedly, "It's still a little short. If only I could get a little more Sha Qi."

Zhao Yuchen said: "I have a large number of strong men above the Divine Realm, and there are also several in the Taiyi Realm. If we gather them together, it will not be difficult to release you."

Shaxue said excitedly: "Then let them come and help me!"

Zhao Yuchen took out a talisman and said, "Of course I can, but I need a ray of your divine nature as a guarantee."

Shaxue said bitterly: "I can't thank you enough, I won't betray you."

Zhao Yuchen said, "If that's the case, then you should give me a portion of your godhood. That way, we can all be happy."

Chapter 194 You annoying villain

(Due to an update error, Chapter 193 was missed. It will be added in the next chapter. Sorry.)

Zhao Yuchen could no longer clearly remember the feeling of holding Gui Yuzhen in his arms.

When her warm fragrance hit their noses, they seemed to have returned to the time when they first had an affair.
