Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 759 - 385, Returning to the Purple Yin Realm, beheading Ruan Bai Mei with a sword.

Unfortunately, opening the spatial channel takes time, and the Dragon Resentment on the Broken Dragon Platform became aware of the two trespassers and began to attack.

Among Elder Jiu Ling and Lady Hua, Elder Jiu Ling, with the Mirror Turn Divine Skill, could switch places with the Nine-Headed Lion Spirit Beast.

As a result, Elder Jiu Ling bravely volunteered to take on the Dragon Resentment's attacks alone.

Unfortunately, Lady Hua did not appreciate Elder Jiu Ling's sacrifice. After opening the spatial channel's seal, obtaining its reverse scale, and thus gaining control of the Dragon Resentment, she deliberately took a few slower steps, leading to Elder Jiu Ling's death.

Lady Hua then left Louhai Secret Realm, returned to her sect to consolidate resources, and spread the news of Elder Jiu Ling's death due to his accidental intrusion into the Broken Dragon Platform.

By the time Xu Xing made his breakthrough to Primordial Spirit and returned to Nanyan Continent, Lady Hua had already departed from Phantom Valley several decades prior and left the Purple Yin Realm through the spatial channel of the Broken Dragon Platform.

"How heartless you are! After discovering the spatial channel, you and Elder Jiu Ling could have arrived in the Chiming World together," Xu Xing said sarcastically, withdrawing his fingers from Lady Hua's forehead and giving her a look of disgust. "But you sacrificed him just to monopolize this opportunity."

If Lady Hua had schemed to kill Elder Jiu Ling while fighting over treasure, he could understand it. After all, people die for wealth, and birds die for food. With a precious treasure right before their eyes, even the closest kin might turn against each other, not to mention temporary "friends." However, the spatial channel to the Chiming World was not a one-time-use-only thing. Lady Hua's actions clearly showed immense cruelty.

"Daoist Chang, if you were in my position, you would have done the same... That dragon scale is the reverse scale of a dragon, and it's a treasure..."

"Besides, if Fellow Daoist Jiu Ling and I had returned from the Broken Dragon Platform together, given his character, the secret of the spatial channel would have been impossible to keep!"

After being soul-searched, Lady Hua collapsed to the ground. Clutching her Qiufu, she wailed a few times before looking up at Xu Xing to once again justify her actions.

After she finished her justification, she seemed to have thought of something and changed her tone, starting to beg for mercy.

"Yes, I am despicable, I have the heart of a snake and a scorpion, but... I can still be useful. I've learned secret techniques in Yunu Pavilion, and I'm willing to be your furnace ding."

"I only ask that you spare my life, Daoist Chang."

Lady Hua moved a few steps forward, clung to Xu Xing's thigh, and removed most of her clothing, pleading pitifully.

She did not believe Xu Xing sought her out solely for revenge for Elder Jiu Ling; otherwise, he would have come to Phantom Valley's gates during their time on Demon Island. Xu Xing and Elder Jiu Ling had a bond, but it was very limited. As long as she was willing to serve, she could keep her life.

"Taking you as a slave? I'm still not very confident, Xu Xing, because you're too cunning," Xu Xing said, shaking his head. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

The prohibitions he controlled could, at most, control a cultivator's life and death, not their thoughts. For ordinary cultivators, taking them as slaves was feasible. But Lady Hua was too dangerous to keep by his side; she could betray him at any moment, which was too great a risk.

"Now, please, Lady Hua, go to your death. Consider it an offering to Fellow Daoist Jiu Ling's departed soul."

Xu Xing formed an incantation seal, activating the prohibition he had previously left in Lady Hua's body.

With her magic power sealed, Lady Hua could only watch helplessly as the prohibition inside her body destroyed her Nascent Soul and Divine Soul inch by inch.

"I can't accept this! I finally made it to the Upper Realm, yet I still die..."

A half-moment later, Lady Hua collapsed in a pool of blood, her body stiffening, her eyes gradually growing dull.

Standing to the side, Xu Xing used a spell to take the storage bag and some spiritual treasures Lady Hua had been carrying. Then, he incinerated Lady Hua's physical body with the Sun True Fire.

"So, this is Third Prince Xiaohai's reverse scale?" Xu Xing took out the painting scroll and released Ao Yuniang's residual soul.

"It has my cousin's aura." Ao Yuniang nodded, her eyes revealing a hint of nostalgia.

"I just don't know where your cousin is hiding at this moment, or whether he's alive or dead..." Xu Xing said casually, caressing the Dragon Scale.

Although Third Prince Xiaohai was powerful, Xu Xing didn't think he would be "safe and sound" in the Chiming World, considering the strength of the Chiming Imperial Dynasty. He had inquired within the Fire Spirit Sect, and it seemed there were no dragon clans within the Chiming World. Moreover, given Third Prince Xiaohai's strength, it was unlikely he wouldn't have returned to Louhai Secret Realm at least once in all these years.

"The Chiming World is vast, far beyond our imagination... It's hard to believe that this was once the Zhongtu Dao State in the Purple Yin Realm..." Ao Yuniang said with a bitter smile, clearly agreeing with Xu Xing's deduction: Third Prince Xiaohai had likely been killed by the Longevity Immortal Dynasty or the Chiming Imperial Dynasty.

To glimpse but a spot and know the leopard, to see but a leaf and know autumn's approach. The Chiming World was so vast that even a small area like the Day Sky Ocean Region was filled with numerous powerful cultivators and Refining Void Immortals. Then, just how powerful must the cultivators of the Chiming Imperial Dynasty be to rule over this expansive world territory? The difference between a continent and an entire world was simply too great.

"Don't worry, I will definitely fulfill my promise to you," Xu Xing said after a few moments of silence.

Although the Chiming Imperial Dynasty was powerful, Xu Xing did not believe that these "pseudo-immortals" could be stronger than the true immortals of the Evergreen Immortal World. With the Evergreen Immortal World in his hands, sooner or later, he would overthrow the Chiming Imperial Dynasty. But this was a secret Xu Xing couldn't reveal to Ao Yuniang.

"Thank you, Daoist Xu." Ao Yuniang smiled courteously and bowed to Xu Xing in respect. Her residual soul then returned to the painting scroll.
