Thanks for the invitation, I just entered the chat group after traveling through Under One Person.

Chapter 187 Self-destruction
"Demons and monsters, leave quickly, demons and monsters, leave quickly..." The old man chanted the incantation, and the pufferfish in his hand glowed green. Streams of magic power flew out from the pufferfish and struck the Ultimate Gray Warrior.

Magic against magic is exceptionally effective. Chen Long and Tru put in a lot of effort, but only managed to make these warriors suffer some losses. However, with just one move from his father, he directly dispersed them into black mist.

But being scattered into black mist didn't mean they were completely defeated. They quickly reformed and resumed the battle. After that one attack, the old man didn't touch the shadow warriors again.

"Found you!" The old man nimbly dodged the explosive magic of the dragon talisman and looked in one direction. The pufferfish in his hand glowed with a mysterious green light, locking onto that spot.

The old man's main target wasn't the Shadow Warrior, but Blade Dragon. Breaking the spell's magic wasn't easy, at least not in the short term. Therefore, the old man took a different approach: since he couldn't expose Blade Dragon, he at least needed to pinpoint his location first.

So he made his move and dispersed one of the Shadow Warriors. The Shadow Warrior's dark energy was contained within Dao Long's dark energy staff. For the Shadow Warrior to reform, Dao Long would need to cast a spell using the staff. Then, Old Man could track the fluctuations of the spell cast and lock onto the dark energy staff.

Daolong didn't have many choices: either let his father pinpoint his location, or not reassemble the Shadow Warriors. If he chose not to reassemble the Shadow Warriors, his father would then disperse the remaining three. If Daolong didn't want to flee in panic, he certainly couldn't remain hidden indefinitely.

The old man isn't currently targeting Daolong's location, but rather the location of the black staff in Daolong's hand. If Daolong abandons the black staff, it's equivalent to abandoning four Shadow Warriors. As long as the old man destroys the black staff, they will revert to their original forms.

Daolong would never abandon the Black Qi Staff; otherwise, there would be no need to reassemble the Shadow Warrior. Moreover, for a Qi mage, being without a magical artifact is no different from a soldier going into battle without a gun. Even archmages need magical artifacts as a medium to cast spells.

"Daolong, you've been exposed. Surrender to your father now, you're no match for him," the father said, looking in the empty direction.

Daolong appeared, dressed in a black robe, with a sinister face and eyes that revealed evil and cunning. In his hand he held a black staff that shimmered with an eerie light, the staff covered with strange runes, exuding an aura that sent chills down the spines of ordinary people.

"Is the loss of control of the Shadow Legion by the Holy Lord related to you?" Dao Long's expression was not good. The Holy Lord had just lost control of the Shadow Legion, and then Old Man's group came knocking on their door. It was hard not to connect it to them.

"Further words are useless. Demons and monsters, leave quickly... Demons and monsters, leave quickly..." The old man replied calmly and began chanting a spell.

With a deep incantation, Daolong launched his attack. He waved his wand, and beams of black magic shot towards his father like snakes.

The old man remained calm and composed, muttering incantations as the pufferfish artifact in his hand emitted a soft light. His magical power coalesced into beams of light, which flew out and collided with the black magical beams of the sword dragon.

Daolong chanted the incantation again, summoning a horde of dark creatures that lunged at his father with bared fangs and claws. His father frowned, then began chanting again, unleashing a burst of air magic.

Streams of white energy surged from the pufferfish in his hand, transforming into agile orbs of light that clashed fiercely with the dark creatures.

Daolong noticed that his father was using magic to entangle him while constantly approaching him. He didn't know what his father's intentions were in getting closer, but he certainly wasn't going to let his father achieve his goal so easily. Holding a black magic staff in one hand, he cast spells, while gripping a dragon talisman in the other, constantly forcing his father back as he tried to get closer.

In terms of pure magic combat, it would take Old Man Dad a little longer to suppress Dao Long. Old Man Dad thought of his nickname in the chat group, but he was a dual cultivator of magic and martial arts. If he were still in his old, frail body with declining blood and energy, Old Man Dad wouldn't be able to use force to fight his enemies.

But now, having embarked on the path of cultivation in the world of cultivation chat, with the enhancement of righteous energy, his blood and qi are gradually becoming more abundant. Although he hasn't mastered as many cultivation spells as Song Shuhang, in terms of hand-to-hand combat alone, his father can already unleash the strength of his max-level martial artist account.

This strength should not be wasted. It doesn't matter if he can't win in terms of magic for a while, as he, Chen, also knows a little about hand-to-hand combat.

Unfortunately, Dao Long still had the Snake Talisman and the Dragon Talisman, preventing him from getting close. The main reason for this stalemate was that the Rat Talisman and Tiger Talisman on him were ineffective in combat.

But a turning point soon appeared when Valmont showed up. "You bastard, turn my minions back!" Valmont said, and while the dragon was entangled with his father, he charged towards him.

"Fool!" Daolong cursed disdainfully, raising the Dragon Talisman in his hand towards Valon who was charging at him. He unleashed his raging fire power, which glowed red in Daolong's hand.

boom!
The flames exploded, not flying towards Valmont, but exploding directly in Blade Dragon's hand. Blade Dragon was instantly blasted away, and the two talismans landed in Valmont's hands.

"You're not Valmont!? You're Shendu!" Daolong instantly realized that only Shendu could tamper with the talismans.

"So who's the fool now?" Valon's eyes were now bloodshot, and his body was being controlled by Shendu. Shendu had long known that cooperating with Daolong was like playing with fire; he was a statue, unable to move, and in a vulnerable position.

If there's anything Daolong is after, it's undoubtedly talismans. Knowing this, the Holy Lord naturally set up methods on the talismans long ago. Normally, the talismans can be used normally, but if the Holy Lord has any ulterior motives, offensive talismans will become the user's death warrant.

"Oh dear~ what a good dog-eat-dog show for Dad." Dad also complained when he saw this, his pufferfish artifact warily facing Valon in his possession by Shendu.

Faced with his father's magical artifact threat, Shendu did not hesitate for a moment. He raised his hand and aimed the Dragon Talisman at a wall, causing flames to explode and reveal a secret chamber. A statue of Shendu could be seen inside this chamber.

Daolong wondered why the Holy Lord had suddenly exposed his hiding place. Did he foresee that he was about to betray him?
Unable to control the Shadow Legion, the Holy Lord is essentially an immovable statue. Therefore, his presence in this secret chamber was naturally placed there by Daolong's men.

Daolong easily guessed that Valmont was possessed by Shendu by using the power of the Sheep Talisman. Since Shendu had already betrayed him, Daolong saw no need to help him hide his location and was even planning to immediately reveal the location of the Shendu statue. Unexpectedly, Shendu himself exposed it.

For a moment, Dao Long had no idea what the Holy Lord was planning. They had been on the same side before, he hadn't betrayed him, and the enemies were still around. There was no reason for the Holy Lord to turn against him.

The Holy Lord's actions left everyone present bewildered. Then, in the next instant, the power of the Dragon Talisman slammed into the sculpture of the Holy Lord himself, shattering it into pieces.

The sheep talismans flew up, and just as the Holy Lord was about to put them away, a blur flashed, and the sheep talismans disappeared from sight. Suddenly, he felt his hand being pulled, and the snake talisman he was holding in his other hand also vanished.

Xiaoyu appeared beside her father, showing off the sheep and snake talismans she had snatched from the Holy Lord: "Hahaha...Dad, Uncle Long, look how amazing I am!"

"Xiaoyu, don't do such dangerous things... Ouch!" Chen Long was distracted and gave Xiaoyu a lecture before being smashed away by Cui's long hammer.

Just as Wen was about to deliver the final blow, the black aura surrounding the shadow warriors began to dissipate, and they gradually returned to their normal human forms. Old Man, perhaps having been corrupted by the chat group, used magic to destroy Daolong's black aura staff while everyone's attention was drawn to the Holy Lord's act of destroying his own body.

Zhou, Afen, and Lasu looked at their hands, which had returned to normal, and cheered with joy: "Great! We're finally back to normal. We don't have to be that monster anymore!"

Only Afu cried out in despair, unable to accept it: "No! My power!"

Ignoring these guys, the old man looked at the fragments of the Shendu statue and said, "The power of the Sheep Talisman can allow Shendu's soul to return to his body. But now that he has destroyed his own body, he will remain attached to Valon."
