Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 548 Internal Strife in Front of Enemy Lines, One Sword Breaks the Formation

"Zi Yao, don't resist anymore. Let me devour you, and I promise you will ascend to the Four Realms with me inside my body." The greed in the Yin Serpent Dao Master's expression was no longer restrained.

He had devoured everyone in the entire Yin Serpent Academy, leaving only this newly promoted true disciple in front of him.

Whether they were disciples or ordinary servants, they were all swallowed by him in a single day and night.

With this blood-nourishing diet, his injuries have recovered by 70%.

If he eats Ziyao again, he will surely recover another 10%.

Of course, the real focus is not the injury, but the great fortune that comes from the Emperor's Dew.

Given this good fortune, escaping will not be difficult for him.

Zi Yao, however, showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, she spoke with an air of complete confidence: "You old scoundrel, you're nothing but a stray dog, yet you dare to bark and howl in front of your great-aunt."

"It's uncertain who will devour whom today."

As soon as she finished speaking, purple feathers appeared on Zi Yao's body, changing their appearance in an instant.

"This is impossible! How could you have obtained the Purple Feather Thunder Eagle Demon Body Divine Power when you were in the Foundation Establishment stage?!" The voice of the Yin Serpent Dao Master was sharp.

Since he knew that Zi Yao possessed the Emperor's Elixir, he naturally took precautions.

Therefore, it was impossible for the opponent to cultivate the Purple Feather Thunder Eagle Demon Body, a divine power specifically designed to counter him, during the Foundation Establishment stage.

Moreover, where did she get it from?

However, he quickly put aside these thoughts, because the giant eagle demon spread its claws and grabbed at him with lightning.

At this moment, he was in the state of the Supreme Yin Serpent Demon, and naturally wanted to avoid it.

But he was a step too late. The sharp claws landed firmly on his vital spot, and the lightning struck, numbing him and rendering him unable to resist.

The injury, which had already begun to heal, worsened further.

"Suppressing the third realm with the second realm," the Yin Serpent Dao Master endured the excruciating pain and coiled around the snake, saying, "Truly a chosen one of heaven."

"But now that there are extraterrestrial demons eyeing us covetously, even if you kill me, you will not escape death."

"How about we cooperate, then go our separate ways after we've made our way out?"

They were talking, but neither side showed any intention of stopping their fight.

"Old thief, all that sweet talk." As Zi Yao spoke, her eagle beak swooped down towards the snake's head.

He immediately pecked out one of the Yin Serpent Dao Master's eyes, opened his mouth, and swallowed it.

As the snake's eye entered its belly, the purple lightning aura emanating from the Eagle Demon immediately intensified.

The Yin Serpent Dao Master knew that he was ultimately no match for the great fortune of the Emperor's Dew.

But he was unwilling to accept it. Rather than die at the hands of this mere disciple, he would rather break the protective formation and let the extraterrestrial demons come in and kill Zi Yao as well.

It's better to have someone die with him than to die alone.

He acted on his idea, but to his despair, he discovered that the protective array had slipped out of his control.

"Heh, thinking of inviting a wolf into the house and then dying together with me?" Zi Yao realized the Yin Serpent Dao Master's plan, and pecked off another of his eyes and swallowed it.

"I was already on guard against this move. It's just a mere protective formation. Since you knew you wanted to harm me, how could I just sit and wait to die?" Zi Yao's words were full of mockery.

Hearing this, the Yin Serpent Dao Master was filled with grief and indignation.

"Hmph, even if I die, I won't let you, a whore, get away with it!" As he spoke, the Yin Serpent Dao Master self-destructed on the spot.

Zi Yao was prepared and immediately escaped with a flap of her wings.

"You old fool, I'm just driving you to suicide." A human-like contempt appeared on Zi Yao's eagle demon face.

The reason she didn't kill the Yin Serpent Dao Master on the spot, and instead repeatedly humiliated him, was to self-destruct.

Otherwise, given that she had already suppressed the other party, she could have easily devoured him whole.

But she kept arguing with him and wouldn't eat.

Such an illogical act must have ulterior motives.

Her Purple Feather Thunder Eagle Demon Body is specifically designed to counter the supernatural powers of Yin Snake Demons.

If the Yin Serpent Dao Master self-destructs, his qi, blood, and magic power will disperse, and she can directly absorb them, with the effect being more than ten times greater.

Unfortunately, only the supernatural powers of the Yin Serpent Demon class have this effect; other supernatural powers cannot be used.

They can only obediently swallow.

As her vital energy and magical power were continuously absorbed by the lightning on her feathers, Zi Yao broke through to the third realm in an instant.

She was already at the peak of the second realm, and the third realm was just a thin veil away.

Otherwise, if she had only just entered the second realm, even if the Purple Feather Thunder Eagle Demon Body could restrain the Supreme Yin Serpent Demon Body of the Yin Serpent Dao Lord, she would still be no match for a veteran third realm cultivator.

Fortunately, the opponent was seriously injured, and I had made prior arrangements.

With a confluence of favorable circumstances, he was able to defeat a third-realm opponent from the second realm.

This event is not entirely undocumented, but very few people succeeded in it, and even fewer stories have been told about it.

"Something's not right. How can his qi and blood be so abundant?" Zi Yao sensed something was amiss.

According to her estimation, the Yin Serpent Dao Master was only at the peak of the third realm, and since he was seriously injured, he naturally could not have fully absorbed it.

Therefore, at most, he can only reach the middle stage of the third realm, or even the early stage of the third realm.

But now he's already in the late stage of the third realm, and he's about to break through to the peak of the third realm.

This was completely unexpected for her.

Being in a Dao Academy, having become a true disciple and even assassinated the Dao Lord, Zi Yao naturally knew that there were no free lunches in the world. If she reached the early stage of the Third Realm, there would be no hidden dangers.

However, caution is needed in the medium term.

But before she could even finish thinking, she had already reached the peak of the third realm.

Her current strength is equivalent to that of the Yin Serpent Dao Master at his peak, yet she still hasn't stopped.

An ominous thought popped into my mind.

Before she could even ponder why, she had already broken through to the fourth realm.

At this moment, Zi Yao felt no joy, but rather as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

"No, what's going on?" Zi Yao couldn't help but swallow, her mind constantly reviewing the various 'opportunities' she had encountered since entering the Dao.

These 'opportunities' were all the result of her painstaking scheming, plotting, and killing her fellow disciples and enemies.

It can be said that he took each step carefully, personally killing and devouring each enemy.

"So, the problem lies with the Yin Serpent Dao Master." Zi Yao's expression was gloomy: "He was tricked, and then I ate him, and that trickery was transferred to me."

At that moment, her heart sank to the bottom.

These past two days have been far too strange.

First, golden light appeared in the sky, and then the Yin Serpent Dao Master led the high-ranking officials of the Three Supervisors, Six Capitals, and Twelve Halls out, leaving only him severely injured as he escaped back.

"Is it an extraterrestrial demon???" At this moment, Zi Yao suddenly remembered what the Yin Serpent Dao Master had said earlier.

She was not the head of the Dao Academy, so she naturally could not receive any decrees and therefore did not know what the so-called extraterrestrial demons were.

Literally, it means a demon from beyond the heavens.

Demons are nothing compared to the demons; everyone who reaches the Foundation Establishment stage is still building a demonic body. What's truly terrifying is the one from beyond the realm.

Before this, she was just a second-realm cultivator, and at most she could only travel a few hundred miles away from the Yin Serpent Academy, so she had no access to these things at all.

"Escape, we can't fight them head-on." Zi Yao immediately came up with a plan.

It should be noted that the first thing the Yin Serpent Dao Master did after escaping back to the Dao Academy with serious injuries was to activate the protective array.

Although he had already reached the fourth realm, the spells and supernatural powers he used were only at the second realm.

Even a seasoned third-realm assassin would have a 70% success rate against her, let alone the so-called extraterrestrial demon, who is highly likely to be a fourth-realm assassin.

Now, she's nothing but a pretty face.

"I wonder how long this protective formation can hold out." A greedy glint flashed in Zi Yao's eyes.

Everyone in the Yin Snake Dao Academy except her was dead, which meant that everything in the academy belonged to her.

Since we're going to escape, we can't just leave all alone; we have to take all the resources with us.

And not only do they have to leave, they also have to destroy everything they can.

If I can't have something, I'd rather destroy it than leave it to someone else.

This is the way of cultivation! Only by fighting by any means necessary can one forge a path to heaven.

Now that you've made up your mind, you should naturally take action.

But she had only taken two steps when she suddenly heard a loud bang.

She looked up in astonishment, only to see the protective array shatter into countless fragments in an instant under her gaze, subjected to an irresistible attack.

"Oh no!" Zi Yao exclaimed in alarm. Forget about resources and destruction, she fled without hesitation.

The extraterrestrial demons have invaded. Preserving our lives is the most important thing; everything else can be sacrificed.
-
"It's really Tier 4 now. Qian Yuan was right after all." After shattering the protective array, Guo Ming's gaze quickly locked onto the purple shadow that flapped its wings and took flight.

He then flew after them on his sword.

As for Chu Danqing and his group, they quickly moved into the Yin Serpent Academy and began to take over.

The three major adventure groups also had their uses, quickly taking out various group and area-of-effect items and equipment, and began to deploy defenses against the entire Yin Serpent Academy.

Chu Danqing has people, while the adventurer group has resources.

With the cooperation of both parties, it only took about ten minutes to quickly and simply protect the entire Yin Snake Taoist Academy.

"The occupation progress is only 10%, this is a bit difficult to handle," said Bixie.

Their mission was different from Chu Danqing's.

Chu Danqing's mission was a welfare-oriented one, while theirs was a formal war mission.

They are about the same in terms of difficulty and have some overlapping tasks, but their ultimate goals are different.

For example, Chu Danqing doesn't have a system for determining the progress of an occupation.

Obviously, taking over the amusement park wouldn't be too difficult for Chu Danqing, so there was no need for this progress bar to appear.

But it's different for the three adventure teams, because they don't have the ability to do that and need semi-datafication as an aid.

"How long will it take to get it done?" Chu Danqing asked.

"It will take another hour to build the safe zone," said Bixie. "The blueprint for the safe zone provided by the park is a bit too difficult."

He also noticed that Chu Danqing lacked a safe zone blueprint and progress bar, among other things.

That makes sense, since they relied entirely on Chu Danqing's men to fight their way through.

That means their mission is not to fight, but to provide support.

As for logistics? Once the safe zone is built, the living apostles will come over.
