Chapter 466 - 341: Pursuit (2)

A surge of Evil Qi suddenly erupted from Han Yuan, enveloping him, Zhang Cang, and Yan Qingyu.

In an instant, Yan Qingyu felt the chilling, terrifying coldness around her vanish.

Han Yuan was using his own Evil Qi to block the surrounding sinister chill.

The three of them leaped from building to building, rapidly closing in on the terrifying figure.

A dozen breaths later, they passed through thick layers of gray mist and landed atop a high tower, finally getting a clear view of the figure.

It was a grayish-white, humanoid monster over ten meters long, its body covered in dull fish scales. Its head resembled a flood dragon’s, only far more savage and terrifying. A massive, fleshy tumor bulged from its back, blooming like a flower bud to release a dozen enormous, slimy tentacles.

RUMBLE!!!

The dozen tentacles were now flailing wildly, smashing one house after another to pieces.

At the same time, violent flashes of fire appeared in the dense mist, coalescing into a Flame Divine Sword that pulsed with scorching light, as if it could incinerate anything.

SWOOSH!

The Flame Divine Sword descended from the heavens, plunging viciously toward the grayish-white monster’s head.

SQUELCH!

Before Han Yuan’s eyes, the Flame Divine Sword instantly pierced through the grayish-white monster’s head.

A fierce, searing ball of fire exploded.

The grayish-white dragon head was instantly blown to smithereens.

But a second later...

Flesh and blood writhed at its neck, and two new dragon heads sprouted in its place, letting out cold roars.

"The Recovery Power of this Source Seed’s spiritual pollution is just as strong as ever..."

Han Yuan couldn’t help but remark upon seeing this.

Zhang Cang asked softly, "Then how are we supposed to deal with this thing?"

"We have to unleash our strongest attacks and destroy it in an instant," Han Yuan said grimly.

This was the conclusion he’d reached after fighting many sources of Source Seed pollution.

Just then, a figure with the bearing of a celestial master appeared on a rooftop.

It was Ling Yunzi.

He held a crimson Spirit Sword in his right hand and a Spirit Talisman in his left.

"Daoist Master, we’re here to help!"

Han Yuan let out a great cry.

He instantly transformed into his Black Dragon form. His body, long and elegant, pulsed with a savage and terrifying aura as he shot toward the grayish-white monster like a streak of black light!

Meanwhile, Zhang Cang took out a Peach Wood Sword and a Blue Seal, muttering an incantation.

"Lei Gong, aid me!"

RUMBLE!!!

A bolt of Divine Thunder, thick with an aura of destruction, crashed down and struck the grayish-white monster on the head.

Seeing this, Ling Yunzi immediately crushed the Spirit Talisman in his hand.

"Nanming Lihuo, Vermilion Bird’s divine might!"

SCREECH!!!

With a piercing cry, vast stretches of Fire Clouds suddenly appeared in the sky that had been roiling with black mist.

A divine bird, wreathed in sacred flames, appeared high in the sky.

It was none other than the legendary Vermilion Bird Divine Bird!

The Vermilion Bird flapped its wings, unleashing ball after ball of scorching flames that rained down on the grayish-white monster like a meteor shower.

For a moment, thunder and fire raged together.

Flames surged and lightning snaked everywhere!

It was like the apocalypse, raining down relentlessly upon the grayish-white monster.

At the same time, Han Yuan brandished his sharp Dragon Claw. He appeared before one of the grayish-white monster’s heads and abruptly gouged out an eye!

BANG BANG BANG!!

The grayish-white monster howled in agony after taking such heavy, successive blows.

"It can’t take much more!"

Ling Yunzi shouted.

This source of Source Seed pollution wasn’t as formidable as he had imagined.

Of course, if he were alone, he probably wouldn’t have been able to defeat the grayish-white monster.

But now that Zhang Cang and Han Yuan had joined the fight, their combined strength was overwhelming.

Yan Qingyu didn’t make a move.

’I know my power is limited in the Spiritual World. All I have to do is stay safe and not cause trouble.’

"Five Thunders Bombardment!"

Hearing this, Zhang Cang didn’t hesitate for a second, immediately burning his own Divine Soul.

RUMBLE!!!

Boundless lightning roiled across the sky.

A hazy, illusory figure with a bird’s head, a human body, and wings on its back seemed to appear.

It held a hammer and chisel, striking them together with vicious force.

It struck them together five times!

Five thick, violent beams of lightning descended!

They crashed down violently onto the grayish-white Ghost.

Seeing this, Ling Yunzi also formed a series of hand seals.

"Vermilion Bird Burning Heaven!"

The Vermilion Bird soaring through the sky flapped its wings, its entire body erupting in extreme flames. It became like a giant meteor, plummeting toward the grayish-white monster.

"Black Dragon Fluctuation Fist!"

Han Yuan suddenly appeared in mid-air, let out a thunderous shout, and threw a devastating punch!

ROAR!!!

The ferocious Evil Qi in his body instantly transformed into a massive, savage Black Dragon. Like an apocalyptic beast, it stretched out its Dragon Claw and struck.

RUMBLE!!!

Unable to withstand the series of terrifying impacts, the grayish-white monster suddenly shattered into pieces, dissolving into countless wisps of dense, grayish-white mist.

With the death of the grayish-white monster, the Spiritual World instantly began to collapse.

Han Yuan’s vision blurred.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back in his room.

’We finally dealt with that source of pollution.’

’Luckily, Zhang Cang was here. If it had just been me and Daoist Master Ling Yunzi, it would have been a real hassle.’

Han Yuan muttered to himself.

His true strength lay in his physique. As for his Divine Soul, despite having the Eight Desolates Dragon God Observation Method, he still lacked a solid foundation.

’I really need to figure out how this Source Seed Shredded Meat can pull my Divine Soul directly into the Spiritual World... It makes no sense.’

’I have to find a way to protect my Divine Soul...’

Although the night had been perilous, Han Yuan felt he had also gained a great deal.

After all, he wouldn’t be caught off guard so easily next time.

Han Yuan calmed himself and left his room.

Aboard the giant ship, everyone was still sound asleep, completely unaware of what had just transpired.

Just then, Ling Yunzi and Yan Qingyu arrived.

"Let’s head to the deck," Han Yuan said softly. "My friend should be here by now."

The three of them quickly left the ship’s cabin and went up to the deck.

A figure landed lightly on the deck just as they arrived.

It was Zhang Cang.

"Daoist Master, is the Source Seed Shredded Meat dead?"

Han Yuan asked gravely.

After all, they had only dealt with the source of the pollution within the Spiritual World.

He had no idea what had happened to the actual, pollution-emitting Source Seed Shredded Meat in the real world.

"The spirit of the Source Seed Shredded Meat should be completely destroyed."

"But don’t forget... this is Source Seed Shredded Meat. Even if only the husk remains, there’s still a chance its Divine Soul could regenerate."

"We must seize this opportunity to seal the husk of the Source Seed Shredded Meat."

Ling Yunzi said grimly.

"But how do we track the Source Seed Shredded Meat?"

Zhang Cang asked gravely.

As long as they could track the Source Seed Shredded Meat, the rest would be simple.

"I can... I became alert earlier because I sensed the Source Seed Shredded Meat approaching."

"It should be on the seabed not far from here..."

"Without any power to drive it, the Source Seed Shredded Meat should stay put."

Ling Yunzi said.

"Then there’s no time to waste. Let’s go now."

Zhang Cang’s personality had never changed; he was always enthusiastic when it came to slaying demons.

"Miss Yan, you stay here and be our support."

"If we’re not back in a while, please notify Li Baozhou."

Ling Yunzi said softly to Yan Qingyu.

"Alright!" Yan Qingyu nodded earnestly.

"Then let’s go," Han Yuan said grimly.

He leaped and dove directly into the ocean.

He circulated the Five Emperors Great Demon Divine Skill, converting all his energy into Water Evil Power that filled his entire body.

This was the special ability of the Five Emperors Great Demon Divine Skill—the power to adapt quickly to any extreme environment.

Zhang Cang and Ling Yunzi also used their own methods to breathe freely underwater.

But naturally, their speed couldn’t compare to Han Yuan’s.

"Over there!"

Ling Yunzi pointed toward a section of the deep sea.

"Got it."

"I’ll go ahead and check the situation."

Han Yuan said.

With a flash, his figure vanished into the water.

Down here, his movements were no different from being on land; in fact, he was even slightly faster.

Ling Yunzi and Zhang Cang hurriedly followed in the direction Han Yuan had disappeared.
