Chapter 987: Four Methods Perfected

Above the firmament.

The magnificent auspicious phenomena of transformation suddenly collapsed, the endless sea dispersed in an instant, and the shadow of the Dragon Door shattered.

“No!”

A piercing, desperate scream resounded through the sky.

The giant body of the white Flood Dragon suddenly trembled, and scorching deep red Lifebound Essence Blood spurted from its huge mouth, spilling into the void.

The Flood Dragon’s body convulsed and twisted madly, and from the gaps between its originally translucent white scales suddenly emerged large patches of coarse yellow-brown hair, which quickly spread and covered the entire body.

The clear and dignified golden dragon eyes swiftly lost their luster, entirely transforming into bloodthirsty crimson, its intellect immediately consumed by boundless murderous aura.

The joints of the dragon claws continually mutated and reshaped into simian claws, muscles, bones, and bloodline completely altered by an evil power.

After waves of painful transformation, the once majestic white Flood Dragon completely vanished.

Only a colossal water ape, rising with an overwhelming evil aura, towering between heaven and earth, with its terrifying presence sweeping across all directions.

…

The cheers across heaven and earth abruptly ceased.

The members of the Dragon Race turned pale, eyes full of panic, several direct descendants with reddened eyes knelt, urgently praying with choked voices:

“Uncle Black Ebony! We beg you to intervene and stop the mutation, save father!”

Black Ebony slightly shook his head, his gaze carrying a hint of coldness:

“Powerless to turn back the heavens!”

He understood clearly in his heart that the white Flood Dragon brought this upon itself.

Having secretly hoarded the Ancient True Monarch’s secret treasures and inadvertently altered the transformation ritual set by the old master.

Attempting to wield True Monarch-level supreme power with mere Dao Foundation Cultivation, backlash was an inevitable outcome.

Cloud spectators were deeply shocked, their discussions mixed with fear:

“Failed breakthrough?”

“A proper dragon transformation reduced to a sinister embodiment!”

“What happened?”

“Seemingly the Divine Techniques have been nurtured, why did it backlash?”

“It seems there was a flaw in the ritual.”

“Better withdraw first, such Dao-transformed evil is extremely perilous!”

“Quickly retreat! Don’t be implicated by this overwhelming disaster, becoming collateral damage!”

As everyone retreated in fear.

Buzz buzz~~

The entire world’s time and space suddenly became stagnant!

The thoughts of thousands of cultivators and all beings were forcibly frozen, rendered motionless and unable to take a single step.

Only the gigantically mutated water ape remained free, its body endlessly expanding, layers of evil aura surging, its pressure continuously rising, already surpassing ordinary Purple Mansion True Masters.

At the peak of the void.

A cold, indifferent figure appeared silently walking in the air.

Chen Sheng looked down on the wrecked world below and the frenzied monster, nodding lightly:

“Shen Shui’s monkey form appears, capable of resisting my Divine Techniques, indeed polluted by True Monarch’s power!”

…

“Awoo——!!”

A wild howl tore through the sky!

The gigantic water ape was in a frenzy, its blood-red eyes locked onto Chen Sheng at the pinnacle of the void, charging ferociously enveloped in endless malice.

Boom boom boom!

Thundering roar shook the universe, vast power trembled the foundations of the earth, void layers shattered open.

This level of destruction, enough to easily crush entire worlds!

“What a beast!”

“Ordinary Great True Masters might slay this beast, but might not be able to suppress it!”

Chen Sheng maintained a calm demeanor, his eyes showing not a hint of emotion, speaking coolly:

“It’s just unfortunate that you ran into me.”

As his words fell, he uttered a single light character:

“Subdue!”

With a light wave of his broad sleeve, the power of his Divine Techniques unfolded.

The position of the universe was reversed, the trajectory of time flowed backward, the entire battlefield’s void violently rotated and deformed.

The ferocious assault of the giant water ape instantly fell into emptiness, its mighty brute force completely dissipated in the twisted space.

“Capture!”

Amidst the spinning heavens and earth, the savage ape’s body was instantly stripped from this world, sealed into a dark isolated realm.

In this realm, pitch black and profound, no trace of daylight could be seen.

Suddenly, a magnificent Divine Sun rose high, pure and radiant golden light spreading across the land, vast righteous Dao aura sweeping through the entire realm.

“Swallow!!”

“Devour you!!”

Seeing the great sun, the water ape’s ferocity remained undiminished, its body expanding thousands of miles, covering the sky and sun, its gigantic mouth wide open, fiercely swallowing the blazing sun.

In an instant, the dazzling sun was swallowed into its abdomen, plunging the world again into boundless darkness.

Chen Sheng’s brow conveyed a cold sneer:

“Daring to swallow anything, not afraid of bursting your belly!”

The next moment.

“Roar roar!!”

Instantly, the huge body of the water ape convulsed violently, its abdomen filled with crippling pain.

A bizarre embryo slowly gestating within it, crazily plundering its cultivation, bloodline, and the origin of evil aura.

As the embryo grew fuller and stronger, the water ape’s physical form rapidly withered and declined, its mighty physique visibly shrinking and collapsing.

Bang!!

With an explosive sound, the large body could no longer bear the internal changes, its chest and belly bursting open.

A brand new radiant Divine Sun burst out from the remnants, rising brilliantly into the sky!

Deep within the sun’s core.

An ancient Dharma Seal quietly sank, within it vaguely visible a small and exquisite spirit ape, steadily confined and subdued.

The next moment.

The world suddenly coalesced, surrounding void quickly folded inward, compressing the entire space into an immaculate jade palm.

The previous world was vividly Chen Sheng’s palm world!

Chen Sheng lowered his gaze at the object in his palm, secretly thought:

“This is the True Monarch Shen Shui’s seal.”

“Though without a gold attribute, it’s still a rare treasure, no wonder the white Flood Dragon kept it hidden…”

“However, first Black Ebony, then the white Flood Dragon, heh heh…”

Chen Sheng sneered coldly in his heart.

He scanned the still frozen surroundings, waved his sleeve.

The Guiding Treasure Banner suddenly emerged.

Within it the radiance of four Divine Techniques echoed, forcibly reversing the flow of time in the area.

Erasing all causality!

In no time.

The binding vanished, time and space returned to normal flow.

All watching observers’ memories were quietly altered, the recent ritual backlash and body mutation’s perilous images entirely wiped away.

With Chen Sheng’s Dao practice, dealing with a group of Tao Foundation Cultivators, none could perceive anything amiss!

In their remaining impressions, only the white Flood Dragon’s inadequate foundations, failing to ascend to the Purple Mansion Realm, ultimately failing the transformation.

“A pity!”

“A pity!”

“Purple Mansion Realm is hard to achieve!”

“Pity the White Dragon Monarch!”

Everyone sighed with emotion.

Several descendants of the Dragon Race were also immensely saddened.

Black Ebony spoke to the Flood Dragon heir:

“Your father is gone, but your uncle remains. If anyone bullies the Dragon Palace in the future, come to Sandalwood Mountain to seek me out!”

These words were spoken loudly, also serving to intimidate everyone, telling them not to go too far.

The Flood Dragon heir expressed immense gratitude: “Thank you, Uncle!!”

Black Ebony nodded, he silently reminded himself at this moment:

“It seems I’ve been somewhat complacent over the years, Purple Mansion Realm is difficult to achieve, I must continue to accumulate!”

…

Meanwhile.

In the vast Great Void, a Water Mansion hidden amidst misty waters quietly suspended.

A Cultivator in Green Robes sat quietly in the hall, holding an ancient Golden Volume, with all the recent turmoil over White River clearly reflected upon its pages.

The Daoist watched as the images settled, a faint smile curled at his lips, deepening his gaze:

“All four methods complete, what a Wuchen Arhat!”
