Who is spreading rumors that my filial piety towards them has changed?

"Try something?"

“When I saved my master, the blood on my body was dominated by extreme Yin power. The last time this happened, extreme Yin and extreme Yang were in balance. There is a possibility that extreme Yang power is now in control!”

Chu Mingkong turned his head to look at the demonic and ferocious King Jin, his gaze then falling on the weak point of the array connected to his life essence.

"I've just confirmed it. Prince Jin's outfit is made up of the strengths of various ferocious beasts from the abyss, combining the best of all beasts. It can be said that he has no weaknesses. I even secretly slashed at his private parts a few times, and he didn't feel any pain."

"..." Empress Pei felt this was a very serious moment, but she was somewhat speechless.

"But no matter how perfect a ferocious beast of the abyss is, it is still formed from the power of extreme yin. Since it is the power of extreme yin, the power of extreme yang is an obstacle that it can never overcome."

Now, I need to eliminate him in one strike. First, I need to break this barrier. I might only have one chance, so I must seize the opportunity to launch a sneak attack after the Annihilation Domain shatters!

Chu Mingkong focused his attention on the well, trying to tell himself that he only wanted to break the barrier, not to kill, in order to delay the shattering of the Annihilation Domain.

Empress Pei's beautiful face showed a hint of indignation as she pondered and rebuked:

"You don't intend to spend this little bit of time fighting me in this desolate realm...."

Chu Mingkong quickly explained the misunderstanding, waving his hands repeatedly to avoid her explanation:

"Don't spread rumors. I can let you spread rumors about me all you want, but how can the short time it took for the Annihilation Domain to shatter be enough for me to complete a cultivation session with you? Do you think I'm an emperor? Gone after a few 'ah ah ah's'?"

Sometimes, Chu Mingkong was quite envious of the emperor. Watching him satisfy his needs with his concubine was incredibly cost-effective. He experienced the most pleasure in the same amount of time. While others could have one time, the emperor could have seven or eight!

"Weren't you angry just now because I played with your tongue? Stick it out and let me see if you hurt yourself. I'll blow on it for you, and you can give me some more extreme yang energy." The dark blood on Chu Mingkong's body dissipated and returned to his heart.

In his confrontation with the Emperor and the Prince of Jin, he deliberately released most of his extreme Yin power, just to see if he could let the extreme Yang power take over.

Empress Pei glanced around at the precarious and crumbling Desolate Realm, bit her red lips, closed her eyes helplessly, stood on tiptoe, and opened her bright lips.

Their lips remained closed and still, yet their inner entanglement was intense, like glue burning in their hearts, scorching the beautiful woman's inner garden with glistening drops.

"Kiss if you want, but who gave you permission to touch me? Ugh!" Empress Pei was silenced before she could finish her rebuke.

As the power of extreme yang gradually filled up, a golden and noble phoenix transformed into an extremely beautiful phenomenon, soaring and dancing around the two of them.

Chu Mingkong wondered if his heart would explode again this time, turning him into a giant golden blood monster. Black blood monsters were at least ugly in a stylish way, but golden blood monsters looked like they were channeling some kind of invincible power—ugly and tacky...

For some unknown reason, although the power of extreme yin did dominate, it failed to provide him with the same physical assistance as the power of extreme yin; this power seemed to have reached a stalemate.

What exactly went wrong...?

"Forget it, let's not dwell on it anymore. It's enough to just get this extreme yang energy out of there."

P.S.: Also 5 words, I can finish this part today. Chapters 108 and 111 of this volume were censored; the editor will release them on Monday when he's back at work. I didn't expect that the classical Chinese phrase "water can... also can..." would be censored.

Chapter 141 The Fated Death of the Abyss Beast (9.8/18)

The power of extreme Yang condensed into the Asura Heavy Sword. The black, viscous flames receded from the blade, which was engraved with unfamiliar Sanskrit characters. Cracks appeared on the blade, which were voids corroded by the extreme Yin flames. These cracks were now replaced by dazzling golden flames, from which tongues of fire emerged like bird feathers, as if a fire phoenix was dancing within.

As the power of extreme yang gathered on the heavy sword, Chu Mingkong's body also underwent a change. Golden cracks spread across his angular and robust body, revealing the Vajra body hidden beneath what appeared to be ordinary flesh and muscle.

Fortunately, there was no impact, and no pain remained. Compared to the initial pounding of his heart, the changes brought about by the extreme yang energy were almost non-existent.

"What is that halo behind you?" Empress Pei asked, pointing to the area behind Chu Mingkong.

Chu Mingkong turned around, but saw nothing: "No, why are you making jokes like this? Look behind you, there's an airplane... no, I should say someone flew by on a sword!"

"It's not a joke, it's true!" Empress Pei smiled gently, her beautiful face illuminating the black and white of the Annihilation Domain with radiant brightness.

She wasn't lying; a halo really did appear behind Chu Mingkong, though it was rather dim and solid. At first glance, it looked like a broken iron ring hanging behind him, emitting a faint golden glow. If the halo were a little stronger, it would have resembled flames.

The halo was positioned behind Chu Mingkong. As soon as he turned around, the halo followed him, which is why Chu Mingkong didn't notice it.

Seeing this handsome young man, who had committed numerous evils in the palace, acting foolishly in such a place, Empress Pei found it amusing and endearing, like dangling a carrot in front of a donkey to trick it into moving forward.

Chu Mingkong turned his head and actually saw the halo. He wondered to himself, "Could it be that I'm going to have a high-ranking monk hanging behind my head from now on?"

However, he wasn't someone who cared much about his image. Running around naked in his underwear back then had already shattered any semblance of modesty he had deep down. Making a foolish mistake once in a while, but winning a smile from a beauty, wasn't a bad deal.

The primordial spiritual energy given by his master's wife is about to run out, and the Annihilation Domain that Chu Mingkong forcibly maintained is inevitably heading towards collapse, and it may not be able to be used again for a while.

The fragmented sound rang in his ears. Chu Mingkong picked up Empress Pei again and ran wildly toward the giant Prince Jin, his steps light as the wind.

The dormant fighting spirit and killing intent were only temporarily hidden, but they were never truly let go.

As his fighting spirit grew, the embers of the dying embers reignited into a raging inferno. As if infected by his will and state of mind, the Asura Heavy Sword let out a loud phoenix cry and burst forth with several zhang of phoenix flames, as if the sword itself was a continuation of its own power!

With nearly forty meters between them and the Prince of Jin, Chu Mingkong's killing intent reached its peak.

bang-

The Realm of Annihilation shattered and disappeared completely, and the black and white world returned to its normal color scheme. When the Prince of Jin came to his senses, he met Chu Mingkong's eyes burning with golden flames, as well as an extremely long heavy sword forged from extreme yang flames.

A flood of questions rushed through the Prince of Jin's mind. What had just happened?

Why did I lose focus for a while, and why did my body unconsciously struggle?

Wasn't this wild boy from Xiling just now protected by Yin blood? Why has he now been blessed with extreme Yang?

What exactly happened?

Despite his furious glare, Chu Mingkong's tone remained calm: "I'm going to cut off your [illegible]!"

The Prince of Jin glanced at the heavy sword protected by extremely yang flames. Extreme yin blood and a bit of flesh and blood tissue were burning on the flaming blade.

He glanced down, then looked up again, and corrected him in a calm tone:

"You've already shaved it! It hurts a bit; I haven't felt this kind of real pain in a long time..."

"It hurts my balls, and the pain is really real."

At the very last moment when the Realm of Annihilation shattered, and at the same instant when the Prince of Jin regained consciousness, Chu Mingkong had already used his sword to cut the abyss-transformed Prince of Jin in two from bottom to top, striking him from the head to the tip.

The King of Jin's tall body split into two halves and collapsed with a crash. The body, pieced together from countless ferocious beasts from the abyss, began to mutate. Those body parts seemed to be intertwined with millions of consciousnesses, each fighting and devouring the others. In the blink of an eye, none of them remained.

The group of cultivators gathered high in the sky had grown much larger, but after witnessing the sudden silence over there, the sudden disappearance of those people, and then the destruction of that monstrous monster by a single sword strike using extreme yang power, the silence and stillness spread to the group of cultivators.

No one spoke; they were all pondering what had happened.

What happened to the black-blooded man? Who suddenly appeared wielding extreme Yang power? Could it be that blood-blooded man with extreme Yin power?

Is it reasonable to simultaneously control both extreme yin and extreme yang forces?

The shocking scene deeply moved them, and even Feng Ying and Yun Nongyu remained silent for a long time.

Feng Ying never expected that Chu Mingkong would come up with some new tricks in such a short time.

"Master Yun, it will be your turn to make a move later. Help Mingkong conceal his aura, otherwise there will definitely be quite a few people following him, and everyone wants to extract some secrets from him."

"Don't worry, Miss Feng." Several talismans appeared between Yun Nongyu's slender fingers.

The barrier connecting the King of Jin to the source of life disappeared, and the great sword that had been positioned above the well lost its obstruction, destroying the well opening immediately!

The dragon's head in the sky had not yet dissipated, and it roared madly in pain. Thousands of thunderbolts and thousands of dragon energies poured down like a torrential rain, turning the imperial palace into a hellish apocalypse. In the instant the emperor regained his senses, he saw Chu Mingkong cut the Prince of Jin in two with a single sword.

The intense and concentrated power of extreme yang became the greatest nemesis of the Jin King after he transformed into the Abyss. The ferocious beasts of the Abyss either died in their own battles or under the even more dazzling power of extreme yang.

His master's wife hadn't lied to him after all; the key circled on that map was the one that allowed him to leave the palace's barrier.

Chu Mingkong felt the presence of the outside world for the first time in a long time. His longing for the outside world clashed with his desire to kill the emperor, but the cultivators gathered outside calmed him down.

We have to run!

We've exposed a lot today. The cultivators aren't exactly friendly guys. In this dog-eat-dog world, most friendly faces probably hide hypocritical scheming.

Before he had firmly established the other party's loyalty, Chu Mingkong would not easily trust anyone.

Moreover, Chu Mingkong himself might not be able to kill the emperor. Prince Jin is pure Yin, and even the purest Yin will restrain the purest Yang. But the emperor's power is somewhat mixed. He has the power of extreme Yin, the power of extreme Yang, the dragon vein, the Shattered Dream Technique, and the secret of the Golden Palace that has been mentioned all along, but none of them have been revealed.

Empress Pei is still by our side; let's make sure she's safe first!

Chu Mingkong decisively rushed out of the palace. A familiar feeling gently surged up, similar to the long-lost aura of the Dustless Talisman. His figure and Empress Pei's figure were both concealed.

I heard Fengying's voice transmission in my ear; she was nearby!

"You must leave quickly. Master Yun has temporarily hidden you. Hurry up and leave. The city is about to be closed."

Chapter 142 When can I get some private guidance? (10/18)

Watching the capital city gradually recede into the distance, Chu Mingkong felt a mix of emotions, but when he tried to analyze it in detail, he couldn't figure it out. He could only chuckle from afar, thinking that he had managed to take everyone who was supposed to be taken with him.

I feel calmer than I expected.

He fell silent halfway through and immediately took out the note to let the girls know he was safe. He didn't expect that his master, Zuo Qiuchi, had already forgotten about him. This really hurt Chu Mingkong.

She said that she learned from Shen Xuejun that his Nirvana Domain had advanced to an unimaginable level, which could easily delay time. Then Zuo Qiuchi went to the capital and found that the palace barrier was so strong that he couldn't break it. He immediately returned and ran away, choosing to believe in Chu Mingkong's ability to protect himself!

However, she couldn't say that she hadn't done anything. On her way back, she was stopped by Eunuch Cao. The commotion caused by Zuo Qiuchi smashing the palace's barrier had been discovered. The emperor was afraid that it was a ploy to lure him out of the palace, so he sent Eunuch Cao to block the road again.

After a fierce battle, Zuo Qiuchi killed Eunuch Cao and returned to Xiaoxiang Qin Academy. She thought that after the Autumn Festival in a few days, the palace would definitely not be able to hide in its shell anymore. Unfortunately, she overslept and forgot that today was the Autumn Festival.

At that moment, Chu Mingkong was sitting cross-legged on Daoist Yun Nongyu's flying sword, his eyes fixed on a pair of fair and delicate bare feet in front of him. The delicate, white feet with a hint of pink were stepping on the cold, sharp blade, which was quite arousing.

"It's so slow, can't it be faster?" he said boredly.

Yun Nongyu stood gracefully and elegantly, looking ahead as she controlled her flying sword, explaining:

"No, there are many people searching for your whereabouts now. This talisman can greatly shield you from the secrets of heaven and any clues, preventing people from following your trail and bringing trouble to Xiaoxiang Qin Academy."

"Heavenly secrets? My Abyss Wounds can protect me from divination and such, right?"

"That's true, but it can't completely prevent it. For those who want to know the direction of their fortune, it's difficult to divine Your Highness's whereabouts. They can only see a blur and chaos. But if they just want to search for clues about your actions, it has nothing to do with fortune or celestial signs. If someone with ulterior motives comes, even a bird that happens to fly by will expose Your Highness's whereabouts."

Therefore, we must fly slowly to ensure the Concealing Talisman effectively hides our presence.

Chu Mingkong didn't want to compete with others in their professional fields. He didn't understand the differences between things like fortune and destiny. He would just do whatever Yun Nongyu said.

Anyway, Ms. Yun has a plump and tender bottom, so whatever she says makes sense!

It was clear that Yun Nongyu was puzzled by Chu Mingkong's changes, but she didn't ask, perhaps because she didn't know where to begin.

Chu Mingkong turned around and said to Feng Ying behind him:

"Fengying, although I am very grateful that you came to meet me, shouldn't you be escorting Yongzhen? Why did you come with Daoist Yun?"

Fengying explained the whole story; her situation wasn't complicated and could be explained in just a few words:
