Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 485 The Most Vicious Revenge

Inside the Demon-Sealing Cave.

Countless fierce and evil spirits surged upwards like a tide, but one figure went against the current.

He went against the flow of evil, blocking the way out. When two strong men meet on a narrow path, the strong will prevail. Naturally, this process would involve many battles.

The key point is that the strength of the demons here varies, with the weaker ones only reaching the Void Returning stage and the stronger ones encountering several Celestial Immortals.

boom!
As he burst out of the passage connecting the two worlds and appeared above the Sealed Demon World, he couldn't help but let out a long breath. Looking around, the Sealed Demon Cave World was filled with the aura of ancient wilderness.

Suddenly, his vision went black, he felt exhausted, and almost fell headfirst from the sky.

"How could a mere passageway... Wait, I'm poisoned!"

Ah Jiao shook his head, then suddenly his expression changed drastically as he remembered encountering a woman in black when he came down.

They only exchanged a few blows briefly to test each other, but now, recalling the woman's meaningful smile as she left, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Looking closer, his palms, mouth, and face had begun to turn black, and the blackening was spreading throughout his body and his primordial spirit.

"What a powerful poison!"

Ah Jiao was shocked. At this moment, there was no time to find a safe place to heal. He immediately sat cross-legged in the void and circulated the Xuan Yuan True Water. Instantly, the magic power in his body roared, like a surging river.

A magical barrier enveloped him, protecting him when he was at his most vulnerable.

As he began to expel the poison, the blackness on his lips, face, and body dissipated, turning into black mist that was expelled from his pores, making the barrier around him resemble a black sphere.

After a long while, the black sphere suddenly shattered, and the poisonous gas formed a cloud of poison. Ah Jiao closed his eyes and fell headfirst to the ground.

Some of the demons that rushed outwards were accidentally contaminated by the poisonous cloud, and immediately screamed as their physical bodies and primordial spirits began to disintegrate.

"Damn it, that poisonous woman Tian Si's poison can destroy the physical body and corrode the primordial spirit. Stay far away from her!"

A voice came from the horde of demons, and those who heard it immediately fled as if avoiding a snake or scorpion; those who couldn't escape were left to their luck.

Ah Jiao didn't know how much time had passed, but in his daze, he suddenly felt a hand touching his face, then moving along his cheek to his shoulder, and down his arm.

"Lady Tiansi?"

This gave him an instant chill, and as his consciousness returned, he opened his eyes and raised his palm to strike.

However, he ultimately did not unleash this palm strike, as he was still somewhat weak and could not muster much magical power.

And then... he saw the person in front of him clearly.

It was not the black-clad enchantress he had seen before, but a woman dressed in a dark red dress.

Her pupils were dark red, her lips were dark red, a bright red flower adorned her brow, and even a strand of her hair had a dark red tinge.

His pupils contracted, his eyes filled with shock, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"To survive being poisoned by Lady Tianyin is quite an achievement, but she's too busy to deal with you now."

The woman glanced at Ah Jiao, touched his arm and laughed, "It's perfect that I get to use all your skills. Such firm and muscular flesh, you look delicious!"

After saying that, he licked his lips and looked at Ah Jiao.

Ah Jiao still stared at her in shock...

The image of the woman who had brutally beaten him in his memory gradually overlapped with the image of the woman in front of him. He never expected that after so many years, they would meet again in such a scene.

He scrutinized the woman before him; she had changed quite a bit since then.

It's clear she hasn't had a good life these past few years; she has two crisscrossing cross scars on her right cheek, and she seems somewhat mentally unstable at the moment.

Gradually, the shock in Ah Jiao's eyes disappeared, and the magical power gathered in his body also dissipated.

His body trembled uncontrollably, but he wasn't actually afraid; it was just an instinctive reaction ingrained in his body.
How deep was his hatred for this woman?

Perhaps the stone walls of Sanxing Cave on Fangcun Mountain have the most to say about this; they represent the hatred that he could not let go of even after two hundred years of carving.

When he first came down the mountain, he was still a little lost, not knowing where to go or what to do.

But he quickly came up with three things he wanted to do.

Revenge! Revenge! And more revenge!

Whether it was the irresponsible Dragon King of the West Sea or the woman who left him with an indelible shadow, he was determined to take revenge.

Having already taken his revenge on Xihai, he now thought of a way to get revenge on this woman.

Snapped!
The woman slapped him across the face and shouted angrily, "What kind of look is that? Why aren't you afraid... no, you are afraid!"

She saw Ah Jiao's trembling body and smiled with satisfaction: "Did you think that if you pretended not to be afraid, I would let you go?"

Ah Jiao's eyes held a provocative glint: "I feel some sympathy for you, pity for you, but I am not afraid of you."

"Why not? Do you think I'm trying to scare you?"

Her expression turned somewhat crazed: "No, I will devour you, I will absorb your power, I will avenge my child."

Ah Jiao laughed upon hearing this, looking up at the top of the cave and laughing until tears streamed down his face. His laughter was somewhat maniacal, and his gaze was also somewhat crazed.

Enraged by what she saw, the woman tore open Ah Jiao's clothes and used her hands, which glowed like the sharpest blades, to tear at Ah Jiao's flesh. But with each grab, she only left a few scratches and not even a trace of blood.

Enraged, the woman bit down hard on Ah Jiao's neck, blood splattering as she tore off a piece of flesh and proudly showed it to him.

But Ah Jiao remained unfazed and continued to laugh.

The woman was even more enraged, tearing at Ah Jiao's chest again with both hands, but this time blood and flesh splattered, along with several shimmering scales.

Large patches of black dragon scales appeared on Ah Jiao's chest and neck.

Only the scales on the neck are larger than those elsewhere, but there is only half a scale.

The woman looked at Long Lin, at his trembling body, and at Ah Jiao laughing wildly... Suddenly, the madness in her eyes subsided.

“You…” She stared blankly at Ah Jiao.

Ah Jiao laughed loudly, "Eat! Why aren't you eating?"

The woman looked at Ah Jiao, and the flesh she had bitten off involuntarily fell to the ground. Tears instantly streamed down her face.

Overjoyed, she crawled over, cupped Ah Jiao's face in her hands, and asked, "Kan'er, you are Kan'er, aren't you? You're still alive? That's wonderful!"

Your eyes look exactly the same as when he looked at me after he grew up; his Achilles' heel is the one I accidentally shattered when he was a child…

Ah Jiao looked at her, a malicious smile on his face: "Does my flesh and blood taste good?"

She suddenly saw that Ah Jiao still had that smug smile on his face, and she was instantly struck dumb, her face drained of color. She staggered back a few steps, her expression pained, and said, "Is this how you punish me?"

She understood that Ah Jiao was using his body to punish and retaliate against her, his mother.

For a mother who loves her child, this is the most vicious revenge in the world.

Although she didn't eat her son's flesh because she recognized him, her mental defenses completely collapsed at this moment. She knelt on the ground, crying and laughing at the same time: "I almost ate my son, I almost ate my son..."

Ah Jiao suddenly stood up, ignoring his bleeding wounds, and walked expressionlessly out of the cave.

“I have already retaliated against her in the most vicious way in the world, but…”

Ah Jiao looked up, somewhat lost and confused, and said, "Why don't I feel the same sense of relief as after destroying the West Sea Dragon Palace? Instead, I feel a tightness in my chest."

The sky in this world is orange.

He stood there, motionless, like a statue, with the woman's desperate, collapsing cries behind him.

In an instant, his thoughts surged like a turbulent tide, making him irritable and angry. He couldn't help but roar, "Why? Was I wrong?"

A violent force surged forth and exploded in all directions.

But he quickly calmed down.

Because he thought of Fangcun Mountain, the place where he had lived the longest.

The sound of carving that he used to hate now brought him an unprecedented peace.

"You're right!" Suddenly, a voice echoed in his mind.

Ah Jiao was overjoyed and asked, "Master?"

He closed his eyes, but upon seeing the shadowy figure of an old Taoist priest sitting cross-legged within his sea of ​​knowledge, he exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing here?"

Bodhi smiled meaningfully and said, "When I passed on the Dao to you last time, I left a trace of my divine thought so that I could guide you if you were lost."

Ah Jiao's lips twitched: "No wonder you said that if I revealed your name, you would know to skin me alive and tear me apart."

Bodhi waved his hand and coughed, saying, "That's not important. The most important thing is to clear up your confusion."

Ah Jiao asked, "So, Master, tell me, did I do something wrong?"

“That’s right. This matter not only resolves your inner conflict but also proves something,” Bodhi said.

Ah Jiao was taken aback: "What is it?"

Bodhi pondered and said, "There is a prerequisite for achieving the most vicious revenge in this world: the mother must love her child. If the mother does not love her child, your method will not be able to hurt her at all."

Ah Jiao froze, stunned. "How could she love me? She used to hate me so much she wanted to kill me. She even shattered my Achilles' heel, leaving an irreparable flaw in my true form..."

Bodhi Daoist gave him a deep look: "When you have completely severed all the knots in your heart, you will be reborn."

He disappeared after saying that.

Outside, Ah Jiao came to his senses, pondered for a moment, and suddenly paused, raising his hand to touch the half of the reverse scale on his throat, which had grown completely at some point.

"No, this thing can grow back?" Ah Jiao asked in astonishment.

The two most important scales on a dragon's body are...

One piece protects the throat, called "Reverse Scale"; one piece protects the heart, called "Heart Protector".

Other scales grow out like human teeth, but these two scales never change after birth.

He didn't know what his master meant by "rebirth," but at this moment, he did feel an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

He turned his head to look at the cave behind him, where the cries of the living beings were enough to make them grieve.

Ah Jiao sighed, walked into the cave, and suddenly froze. He saw the woman in red taking a stone and slashing her scarred arm until it bled profusely.

"You...what are you doing?"

Ah Jiao rushed forward, snatched the stone, and threw it away. Looking at the pitiful woman, he helped her up and said fiercely, "Come on, I'll take you out of here. Let's go find that heartless man and settle the score."

He originally thought he had taken enough revenge on Ao Run.

Now... that's not enough!

Far from enough!

……

West Sea, Demon-Sealing Cave.

Fei Peng laughed and said, "I understand, I understand!"

Seeing that he didn't believe him, Ao Bing tried to explain, "I really did it out of loyalty. Fourth Senior Brother, you don't know, back then my father was punished and imprisoned in the Demon Sealing Cave in the East Sea because of me. Brother Nezha helped me rescue my father. How could I not help him when his family was in trouble?"

"So that's it."

After hearing the explanation, Fei Peng nodded slightly and said, "It's alright, why we went is not important."

After catching up, Ao Bing remembered the important matter and hurriedly asked, "Fourth Senior Brother, why did you help that Sea-Overturning Flood Dragon deal with the West Sea? What is being suppressed beneath the Four Seas Demon-Sealing Cave?"

Fei Peng's eyes flashed as he said, "I know, but do you know that the Overturning Sea Dragon is the illegitimate son of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea?"

"Ah, Uncle's illegitimate son? No way... but I've heard that Uncle does have a lot of affairs outside."

Upon hearing this, Ao Bing was initially shocked and was about to say it was fake, but he quickly stroked his chin and pondered, saying, "Even the Dragon Queen has been replaced nine times, and he still says that he married the later ones because they were too similar to my first third aunt, and that he has countless lovers outside, ptooey!"

As he spoke, a hint of disdain appeared on his face.

Fei Peng added, "Not only that, I also heard that when Fu Hai Jiao's mother came to our door, she was thrown into the Demon Sealing Cave by the West Sea Dragon Clan. Guess what Fu Hai Jiao did there?"

"To save his mother? Isn't that almost what I did?"

Ao Bing exclaimed in surprise, "If the child has already been born, why was the person thrown into the Demon Sealing Cave? What... what kind of dragon is this?"

“I had never met Fu Haijiao before, but because of his courage to make a ruckus in the West Sea Dragon Palace all by himself, I consider him a hero.”

Fei Peng looked intently at Ao Bing as he spoke: "So, junior brother, tell me, whose fault is this? He didn't intend to release what was under the Sealed Demon Cave; he just asked me to guard the entrance before he came out and prevent it from closing. Tell me, should I help him?"

Ao Bing sighed: "In that case, it really is my damned third uncle's fault. I should help him with this!"

Fei Peng smiled approvingly and said, "Good, people from my Yuquan Mountain lineage can indeed distinguish right from wrong, good from evil, black from white."

Ao Bing scratched his head sheepishly and smiled, "Senior brother, you flatter me. I'm just trying to be reasonable, not biased. I'll help you guard the gate of the Demon Suppression Hall."

"it is good!"

Fei Peng laughed loudly, "Junior Brother, I knew I hadn't misjudged you."

The shockwaves generated by the two's battle swept in all directions. Even the four Ao brothers were thrown dozens of miles away before they regained their footing. Then they looked at the blazing, unfathomable ball of light with astonishment and uncertainty.

Why is there no sound?

Just as Ao Guang was getting extremely nervous, he suddenly saw a figure clutching his chest fly out of the sphere of light and scream as he rushed towards Ao Guang and the others.

"Catch me!"

The four brothers quickly caught the flying person, who was none other than Ao Bing.

He looked horrified and said to the others, "Father, this demon is incredibly powerful; I can't defeat him."

It's normal that you can't beat them; it would be a miracle if you could... The three brothers, Ao Shun, Ao Qin, and Ao Run, thought to themselves upon hearing this.

Ao Guang comforted him, "It's alright. If you can reach the same level as him, you'll be able to defeat him."

Before the sound faded, the light spheres vanished completely, and Feipeng stood tall with a faint golden light around him. As he looked at the demons that had rushed out again, the golden light around him suddenly intensified, as if flames were burning.

He pointed at the evil energy, and instantly, countless golden feathers, like divine swords, cleaved the seawater and shattered all the demons. In an instant, the souls of thousands of demons were annihilated.

Fei Peng looked over at Ao Guang and the others. Ao Guang promptly shut his mouth and exchanged a glance with Ao Bing.

My son, I'm afraid it's going to be tough!
"Brother, when will the help you hired arrive?" Ao Run asked, somewhat agitated.

Ao Qin and Ao Shun looked anxiously at Ao Guang.

Ao Guang coughed lightly: "That person is a bit far from your Western Sea, it might take a while to get there. No, didn't you also ask for help? When will the Western Sect immortals you invited arrive? They can't be far from the Western Sea, can they?"

Ao Qin and Ao Shun looked at Ao Run with a deep gaze.

Ao Run: "I..."

That's absolutely true; the Western religion is indeed much closer than this place.

They should have arrived long ago, given the time constraints...

"See? I told you the Western religion is unreliable, Third Brother!" Ao Guang said meaningfully.

"Excellent, Fellow Daoist Ao Guang, this statement is somewhat biased!"

Before Ao Guang could finish speaking, a voice rang out from the sky, and two Taoist priests in strange robes appeared amidst the blazing golden light.

It was the smiling Maitreya and the handsome Jin Chanzi!
Ao Qin and Ao Shun looked at Ao Guang, who had just finished "chirping" in the west.

Damn it... Ao Guang was so angry he wanted to curse, but he also felt a little guilty. Why did he have to come out only after being scolded?
"Not at all, not at all. I think Fellow Daoist Ao Guang's words are not biased at all!"

At this moment, another voice followed, and two more figures arrived. They were Yu Ding and Taibai Jinxing, who had been delayed by Taibai.

"Master?" Ao Bing was overjoyed.

"Immortal Jade Cauldron, you've finally arrived..." Upon hearing this voice, Ao Guang was so excited that he wanted to rush up and hug Jade Cauldron's leg. He also felt his back straighten immediately.
