Chapter 796 Immortality
The yellowish-green digestive juices flowed and surged like a great river.

Among them were countless drowned corpses, their bodies swollen like rotten sofa cushions, constantly spewing corrosive liquid from their bellies into the air.

Faced with these anti-aircraft water cannons, everyone responded in different ways.

Yan Yu and Li Minghu are both skilled practitioners, relying entirely on their swords to move around freely and effortlessly, appearing relaxed and unhurried.

Su Yunjin formed hand seals and unleashed the Southern Dipper Star River Secret Technique, continuously forming shield-like shapes in the air to block all the corrosive liquid projectiles.

Chen Lingyun waved the prison banner, releasing a large number of ghostly shadows that rushed down to block the high-pressure water cannons with their souls, demonstrating that she did not treat ghosts' lives as her own... Considering that the laws of the Lu Kingdom do not protect the rights of ghosts, it seems that there is no problem.

Only Liu Longtao reacted rather awkwardly. He changed his hand gestures, drawing out a crimson dragon made of flames, which circled halfway in the air before suddenly swooping down!

The crimson dragon plunged into the river, bursting forth with dazzling light. Countless drowned corpses were instantly melted by the intense heat, their corrosive liquids exploding one after another. The shockwaves whipped them into the air, sending everyone into a frantic frenzy.

Fortunately, Yan Yu reacted first and threw out the Taiqing Yanlan magic weapon to protect everyone. Then Su Yunjin also made a Dao incantation to manipulate the water of the Milky Way into a large curtain wall, finally blocking all the poison.

"Old Liu, stop causing trouble!" Yan Yu shouted.

"If you can't beat us, you can hide behind us," Chen Lingyun said sarcastically. "No one will laugh at you."

"It's my fault, it's my fault." Liu Longtao, covered in dust and dirt, stammered as he admitted his mistake.

He used to be in the Dragon Squad, where Ye Yun would help him reinforce his defensive shield, so he hardly ever practiced defensive techniques. Offense is the best defense, right? If you melt all the enemies away, what's there to defend against?
Now that things have backfired and caused trouble for everyone, given Master Jing's pride, he certainly can't deny it.

Looking down, although his Crimson Dragon Sky Patrol had cleared out a wave of drowned corpses, a large amount of digestive fluids continued to flow, and soon more drowned corpses rushed in from upstream, continuing to spew venom at everyone.

Liu Longtao refused to believe it and changed his hand seals again, summoning an extremely yin and cold frost dragon.

This time, learning from his previous experience, he did not let the black dragon violently rush into the river and explode, so as to avoid splashing up a large amount of water again. Instead, he quickly swept along the river surface, freezing all the drowned corpses floating on the surface in place.

Haha, the unparalleled wisdom of the old men of Heijing means they won't make the same mistake twice!

Liu Longtao was feeling smug when, unexpectedly, the river froze and stopped flowing. Digestive fluids from upstream rushed onto the ice, causing the water level to rise rapidly and get closer to the people in the air, making it much more difficult for everyone to defend and dodge.

"Hey, think it through before you act!" Even the usually good-tempered Su Yunjin couldn't help but complain.

"Don't use magic recklessly anymore," Li Minghu said, frowning.

"Alright, alright, it's still my fault." Liu Longtao helplessly dispelled the black dragon spell. He then saw that Chen Lingyun, though silent, had a cold, mocking smile on her face. He became even angrier, thinking to himself, "How could I not be good at defense? It's just that I didn't use the right method."

Do you understand the saying "powerful bricks fly"?

Suddenly, an idea came to him. He forcefully formed a hand seal, drawing out a colossal earth dragon of a dark yellow color in the air. The dragon coiled and spun around, baring its claws and teeth, before crashing into the upstream passage. Instantly, it transformed into an extremely heavy mountain boulder, blocking the flowing digestive fluids and the drowned corpses floating within them.

The riverbed has dried up, the drowned bodies are nowhere to be found, and the problem is solved once and for all!
"Hahahaha!" Liu Longtao burst into laughter. "I knew it! What problem can't be solved by Taoist magic?"

He was feeling quite smug when he noticed the other four people exchange glances for a moment, then simultaneously show expressions of terror and quickly shout:
"run!"

"Wait a minute..." Liu Longtao hadn't reacted yet when he saw them rushing forward on their swords at full speed, so he had no choice but to hurry up and follow.

The group rushed forward for a moment, and then they saw the surrounding muscle walls convulsing violently, and a sound like the earth collapsing came from behind.

Liu Longtao's expression changed drastically as he finally understood what had happened. He immediately poured his true essence into the flying sword at full speed.

His cultivation aptitude was already the highest in the group, and his true essence was the most abundant. He immediately took the lead and rushed to the front of the group. Yan Yu shouted:

"Old Liu, you caused this mess yourself, and now you're the one running away the fastest!"

"I didn't do it on purpose!" Liu Longtao shouted.

"Never mind whether it was intentional or not!" Li Minghu shouted, "Build a few more walls to block them!"

Liu Longtao thought that made sense, so he quickly slowed down and landed at the back, summoning the Earth Dragon again to block the passage behind him.

The group continued their full-speed sprint. Not long after, they heard the sound of collapsing earth and rocks coming from behind, along with the increasingly close sound of rushing water.

Liu Longtao's face turned pale. He realized that the "rushing torrent" and the "torrent that was washed away by the dam" were not even in the same league. Ancient water attack strategies often used the method of storing water and releasing floods. How could I, coming from a family of military generals, have forgotten this?

"I'll stay behind to cover our retreat!" He suddenly stopped his sword flash and shouted resolutely, "Don't worry about me, go quickly..."

Before he could finish speaking, four sword lights shot out from his companions simultaneously, with no one stopping to wait for him.

Liu Longtao: ………………

Master Jing created an earthen and rock barrier at the back, while the rest of the group continued forward. Su Yunjin, being the most compassionate, felt a pang of pity and secretly transmitted her voice to Yan Yu, asking:
"Is it alright to leave Liu Longtao alone in the back?"

“No problem,” Yan Yu replied. “He won’t die.” “It’s not a question of whether he will die or not,” Su Yunjin said, both amused and exasperated. She wanted to ask Ling Yun again, but then she remembered Ling Yun’s attitude towards Liu Longtao and decided against it.

The four finally traversed the long passageway and entered an inner chamber. The space inside was astonishingly large, and the surrounding walls and the floor beneath their feet were made of flesh and blood, constantly pulsating, contracting, and convulsing, a sight that sent chills down their spines.

“Fly upwards from here,” Chen Lingyun said calmly. “Straight up, without looking back, and you can leave the world inside your belly.”

"If we continue forward, there's a large gate over there that would probably require a lot of external force to break down, and the digestive fluids behind us could arrive at any time, making the risks unpredictable."

"Should we leave immediately, or risk continuing the exploration, Yan Yu? What do you think?"

Yan Yu glanced at Li Minghu and said:

Let's explore it first.

Leaving the world within her womb now would allow her to escape, but it wouldn't solve the problem of the giant flesh-and-blood serpent itself. Furthermore, Chen Lingyun's specific request for Li Minghu clearly wasn't meant to have her merely accompany her throughout the entire ordeal.

There must be a deeper meaning behind this!

"Alright." Chen Lingyun was not surprised by his answer, and directly released the Nine Heavens Yin Demon Secret Thunder, leading the charge towards the gate.

Everyone unleashed their supernatural powers, bombarding the gate relentlessly. The gate was composed entirely of massive, closed muscles. Whether it was blasted through by the Nine Heavens Yin Demon Secret Thunder, cut by the star sand from the Southern Dipper Star River Secret Technique, or cleaved open by the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Sword Formation, it only continued to spray out foul blood, revealing layer upon layer of muscles inside, seemingly endless and bottomless.

"I'm here!" Liu Longtao finally caught up from behind, shouting, "What are you all doing here?"

He asked the question, but without hesitation, he unleashed several incredibly powerful Crimson Dragon Sky-Piercing Strike shots, instantly blasting through layers of muscle. Yan Yu watched in awe.

Taoist methods may indeed have problems they can't solve, but sometimes they can also brutally destroy the problem itself. What kind of "Master Jing" is he? In the end, he's just a male version of Xie Ruoxi.

The large amount of digestive fluid finally arrived and began to accumulate in the cavity. The group dared not linger for long and rushed through the damaged door, then followed the winding pipes up layer by layer, finally arriving at a spacious, semi-circular room.

Inside the room, a half-naked male was hanging upside down from the skeletal shell at the top, bound by numerous tendons, blood vessels, and muscles.

Shen Yuan died.

Although the other person was disheveled, his appearance was recognizable as that brat, Kambara Shime, whom I had seen countless times in my past life.

Yan Yu decisively scanned the area with his divine sense and discovered that the other party was merely a flesh and blood clone, which made him secretly sigh with regret.

"Coo coo coo coo." The man made a strange cry, and then his body began to descend. His lower body, which connected to the top of the cave, transformed into a thick snake tail, which swung and twisted flexibly in the air, seemingly ready to launch an attack at any moment.

Everyone looked at Yan Yu, as if asking, "Should we make a move?"

Yan Yu pondered for a moment, then slightly made a sword incantation in his hand. The Yin-Yang Dust Sword Qi shot out rapidly, weaving and forming an inescapable sword array around the man.

He clenched his fist tightly, and the sword formation immediately contracted and cut inward, instantly tearing the man to pieces!
The next second, the falling flesh and blood floated up and coalesced, eventually solidifying into the young appearance of Kambara, dressed in a kimono, with his chest half exposed, long hair flowing, red light flashing in his eyes, and an extremely sinister aura.

He simply raised his right hand, and everyone present immediately felt as if their blood was about to run out of control, with faint signs of it leaving their bodies.

Li Minghu, whose cultivation was insufficient, could not withstand it and coughed up a mouthful of foul blood.

Her blood gushed out, scattering into countless droplets in the air. After falling in a parabolic trajectory for a moment, it suddenly rose and floated up, then transformed into countless tiny needles that shot towards the crowd!

Su Yunjin clasped his hands together and activated the Southern Dipper Star River Secret Technique at full power, enveloping the hair-like blood needles within them. He then used star sand to grind and cut them, destroying them completely in an instant.

Liu Longtao made a hand seal and, without testing the waters, directly summoned five-colored dragons, all in red, blue, yellow, white, and black. After swirling in the air for a moment, they all rushed towards the long-haired demon lord, creating a spectacular explosion of light and color. The violent shockwave tore through the ground, and even though everyone was already far away, they could hardly stand.

Amidst the explosive and chaotic energy of the Five Elements, a pale hand suddenly reached out and forcefully squeezed Liu Longtao.

While Master Jing was still channeling his true energy, his blood and qi suddenly surged backward, causing his meridians to go astray. He almost suffered a qi deviation on the spot and had to forcibly stop his cultivation and do his best to suppress the reversed blood and qi in his body.

Taking advantage of the chaos of the Five Elements, the long-haired demon lord broke free and revealed his true form to everyone. His lower body was completely destroyed, with granulation tissue still oozing from the wound, attempting to regenerate. Half of his left arm was gone, and his chest was half scorched by fire, half frozen, and the other half brutally torn open. Inside, there were no internal organs, only a large number of fleshy tentacles, wildly flailing about.

Yan Yu unleashed attacks with both hands. With his left hand, he activated the Taiqing Misty Clouds, protecting everyone within it, while with his right hand, he manipulated the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Sword Formation, trapping the long-haired demon lord once again.

With a snap of his fingers, the sword formation began to operate like a millstone, slicing the long-haired demon lord, who was trapped in the center with nowhere to escape, into 1,024 pieces of minced meat.

Chen Lingyun quickly followed up with a few Nine Heavens Yin Demon Secret Lightning bolts, intending to completely destroy the pieces of flesh. Unfortunately, her reaction was a beat too slow. The pieces of flesh fell from the sword formation, reformed into human form in mid-air, and then pushed their hands forward, only to be shattered by the incoming Nine Heavens Yin Demon Secret Lightning bolts. The next second, they returned to their original shape.

The group exchanged glances; no words were needed, and they already knew the answer.

This demon lord is immortal.

The so-called immortality means that he cannot be killed by conventional means. No matter how many times you cut off his head, he can grow back from the severed neck. What use is swordsmanship against him?
As for unconventional attack methods... even without any communication, everyone was surprisingly unanimous in turning their gaze to Chen Lingyun.
