Then let them offer their loyalty!

After being trapped inside, he was not only directly deprived of his ability to speak, but his original strength at the late stage of the eighth rank was also forcibly weakened by one-third.

If the "black pot" hadn't withstood his full-force attack and been shattered in half, given its sturdiness, it's uncertain whether he would have been able to escape this time.

Thinking this, his gaze toward Qinglan darkened considerably.

Because he knew better than anyone that the seemingly weak and tearful Qinglan was actually a highly talented expert who was not so easy to deal with.

Fortunately... Qinglan's helpers were too weak, one at the sixth rank and one at the seventh rank. On the other hand, they had three eighth-rank members, far superior to her.

This is equivalent to the other side having two more burdens, while you have three helpers, giving you the advantage.

Thinking this, Guangchan touched her head, which was flashing with blue light, glared fiercely at the three women in front of her, then waved to Xinduo and Meila beside her and whispered instructions.

"Mera, you deal with those two women. Xinduo, you two come with me to finish off Qinglan quickly."

"That woman clearly betrayed the Hidden Mist Society. Even if we kill her, the Hidden Mist Society won't bother us."

Upon hearing Guangchan's words, Xinduo and Meila both nodded solemnly, then darted forward.

Although Guang Chan wasn't particularly bright, he still understood the basic principles of "it's better to cut off one finger than to injure ten" and "when a lion hunts a rabbit, it should use all its strength" to become the leader of a force.

After noticing that something was wrong with Qinglan, he decisively called for help, preparing to use all his strength to kill Qinglan first.

To allay his confidants' concerns, he even pointed out Qinglan's true identity...

—Qinglan was not on the list of participants in the "Trial of the Gods" from the Misty Hidden Society this time. It is obvious that Qinglan joined Qiu Tu's side and participated in this trial.

Meanwhile, Zhiyan, who had arrived in the "Mulberry and Hemp Area," also heard Guangchan's words.

She couldn't help but look at the white-clad figure hidden beside her.

The man in white stood with his hands behind his back in the air, his expression gentle, calm, and even slightly smiling, as if he hadn't heard Guang Chan's words.

Perhaps sensing Zhiyan's gaze, Bai Yi glanced at Zhiyan, then narrowed his eyes into slits and said gently, "If the Heavenly King wants to take action, he doesn't need to worry about me."

"I've already stated my thoughts. I'll only take the benefits, without lifting a finger. So don't count on me."

As he uttered these shameless words, the man in white had an incredibly frank look in his eyes, as if he truly believed it.

Seeing this, Zhiyan looked down at the battle situation:

Two against one, Zhu Wu and Princess Xi, even though Zhu Wu is a "reincarnation of a god" and has extraordinary strength, could only barely hold on.

Qinglan was clearly struggling to withstand the attacks from Guangchan and the twins Xinduo.

If Qinglan is defeated, Zhuwu and Princess Xi will be killed almost instantly. The entire battle will be beyond saving.

So, after hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth, stomped her foot, deactivated her invisibility, and rushed over!

As one of the three great masters of humanity, Heavenly King Zhiyan's strength is quite good, having reached the mid-stage of the eighth rank.

Her arrival immediately relieved Qinglan's pressure.

Qinglan was initially wary of Zhiyan's arrival. However, she gradually relaxed after realizing that Zhiyan had genuinely come to help her.

While waving her dry, salted fish with tears streaming down her face and slapping Xin Duo's big mouth, she sized up Zhi Yan.

After a moment, she said pitifully, "Was King Zhiyan also invited by Qiu Tu to help?"

Compared to Qinglan, who could cry while beating her enemies, Zhiyan's strength was clearly inferior. Although both were at the mid-stage of the eighth rank, she was almost powerless against Guangchan.

So, even though she came to help, she was quickly defeated as soon as she clashed with Guangchan and could only hastily reply with an "Mm".

Meanwhile, as the battle dragged on, Guang Chan's expression grew increasingly grave. He knew he couldn't afford to delay any longer; he had to end the fight quickly. So, his heart sank, and his eyes flashed with ferocity. The runes on his head and face all glowed with a clear, yellow light.

Then he stretched both hands out to his sides, and with a sudden tremor, in an instant, it transformed into a flying cicada with wildly vibrating wings, shimmering with golden light.

After transforming, his mobility and agility increased significantly.

Just moments ago, Qinglan and Zhiyan were evenly matched with him. But now, with a flap of his semi-transparent wings, he appeared behind them in the next second! At the same time, several spurts of blood shot out from their arms and bodies!

Zhiyan had seen her share of big scenes, and when faced with such an injury, her face immediately turned cold. She then casually tore off a piece of clothing, wrapped it around the wound, and instantly transformed into a fire person more than two meters tall!

The fire-man had a seductive figure, with a curvaceous body. Moreover, since it had no physical form, it was completely immune to the physical damage from the light cicada.

Then she shook her arms, and the next second, surging flames burst forth from her body, raging wildly in all directions from her center, turning the surrounding area into a scorching sea of ​​fire in an instant!

Immediately afterwards, the raging flames in the sea of ​​fire, like ferocious fire beasts, roared from the cracked ground all the way to the leaden sky, piling up and surging, weaving a dense fire net that ruthlessly blocked the path of the light cicada.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky, blotting out the sun. In this apocalyptic scene, Zhiyan seemed to be the master of the flames, capable of turning everything in the world to ashes!

In contrast, Qinglan's moves were not as domineering.

Feeling the pain all over her body, she burst into tears and then slapped the two Xin Duos hard across the face!

Then, pointing at the two Sindors, she shouted through her tears, "Transform!"

The next second, right before everyone's eyes, the eighth-order Great Evil God Xin Duo's figure slowly shrank!

There were two of them. One grew cowhide and horns, the other grew mane and hooves. In just a moment, the two Sindors transformed into one cow and the other into a horse.

Perhaps because their forms were different, the two oxen and horses looked at each other, were startled, and then each took two steps back, one mooing and the other neighing.

That bizarre and terrifying scene left everyone present completely dumbfounded.

Whether it was the countless light cicadas that transformed into countless others in the sea of ​​fire, or the female pirate Mela who was hanging up to the Queen Xi and being attacked by the Candle Dance, they all couldn't help but pause.

They looked at Qinglan as if she were a ghost.

At this moment, Qinglan was frantically slapping the face of that ox or horse with a salted fish!

While whipping the ox or horse that Xin Duo had transformed into, Qing Lan was also crying "woof woof".

"Don't hit me! Don't hit me! I'm very fierce!"

The oxen and horses that Xinduo had transformed into were bruised and swollen from Qinglan's whipping. They were completely powerless to fight back and howled as they were beaten. They tried to escape, but they couldn't get away at all!

Light Cicada, Mela:....

Zhu Wu, Zhi Yan, and Princess Xi: ...

To be honest, Qinglan is quite famous in the "Boundless Heart Sea - Core Area".

After all, there are countless eighth-order evil gods, but she is the only one who has been slacking off for years.

Those who become eighth-tier evil gods all earned it through hard work, but only she... she reached the eighth tier by eating and drinking.

Therefore, many people speculate that Qinglan's talent is likely extremely amazing. It's just that she doesn't work hard enough.

But... talent is only talent when it is realized; talent that cannot be realized is just trash.

Given Qinglan's attitude of eating, drinking, having fun, fishing, and drinking tea every day, everyone felt that she was 99% unlikely to realize her full potential.

So, at first the "Hidden Mist Society" tried to train her, but later they found they couldn't and gave up.

This has resulted in Qinglan almost never making a move over the years. It's said that no one knows her catastrophic abilities or true combat strength.

And then... her first performance today was truly astonishing.

This strength... well, it's not so much strong, it's just incredibly strange!

What are all these things—black pots, salted fish, cattle and horses?! Can this really be considered a cataclysmic ability?

However, just as Qiu Tu judged when he first came into contact with the power system of this world after transmigrating:

The extraordinary power system is powerful, but it is not actually scary.

What's frightening is... the supernatural power system is bizarre.

After all, "strength" is always relative. As long as you find a way to close the gap and then give it your all, there's always a chance of victory.

But "mysterious" is different. No one knows what methods the other party has, nor how to deal with it.

Like this cataclysmic ability to turn people into sheep or cows. Who knows how to prevent it, and who knows how to counteract it!

While this ability cannot directly kill people, it is extremely demoralizing.

Especially considering the increasingly intense activities of Qiu Tu's Light Cocoon advancement, it seems as if he's about to hatch...

Therefore, Guangchan made a decisive move and shouted, "Retreat! We're done fighting!"

After shouting, his body trembled, and the next second, the thousands of golden cicadas suddenly began to intertwine on the battlefield! They transformed into a sky full of golden threads!

With the full power of an eighth-tier late-stage cultivator, the entire battlefield was completely severed in an instant!

Everything was shattered into pieces, whether it was stones, trees, or even space itself, everything was broken into pieces!

That scene was absolutely devastating! So, Qinglan immediately took the blame upon herself and cowered inside!

Zhiyan was horrified as her body exploded into flames!

Zhu Wu's eyes widened in fury, and he transformed into a giant dragon, with golden scales standing on end!

The golden rays cut into the scales, producing a clanging sound like metal striking metal.

With that sound, golden scales broke off one by one, and golden divine blood began to seep out from the dragon's body!

Regardless, Candle Dance managed to withstand that terrifying attack.

Therefore... among the four women, only Princess Xi has absolutely no means of resisting!

The moment she came into contact with the golden light, her body was covered in bloody marks. The next second, she turned into pieces of flesh and blood and fell to the ground!

The only fortunate thing was that her exquisite head seemed to have escaped unscathed, ending up on her own corpse.

Perhaps she had long anticipated her death today, for Princess Xi showed no surprise on her face, nor any fear or sadness in her azure eyes, only a calm indifference...

In her dying moments, she stared blankly at the sky, her eyes devoid of reluctance or sadness, filled only with exhaustion and a sense of relief...

From birth to death, she lived her entire life consumed by hatred. For her, there was truly little in this world she could cherish...

'I've spent my whole life seeking revenge. If there's a next life, I hope I'll be surrounded by love...'

With these thoughts in mind, she slowly closed her eyes, and her consciousness began to drift away...

Upon witnessing this scene, Zhu Wu, who had just escaped death thanks to her "True God Body," was filled with rage. Her vertical snake eyes were etched with hesitation and inner turmoil!

However, after a moment, she suddenly cursed, "Damn it! If you're going to die, die somewhere else! What kind of bad luck is it to die in front of me!"

After cursing, she suddenly opened her huge mouth and sprayed a mouthful of green mist onto the corpse of Princess Xi!

As that breath of green mist was exhaled, Candle Dance's "Heavenly God True God" seemed to weaken considerably.

The already tattered scales became even more dull and lifeless.

Clearly, this wisp of green mist is extremely precious to Candle Dance.

As the green mist slowly seeped into Princess Xi's corpse, it seemed, whether it was an illusion or not, that her once lifeless body had come back to life...

Moreover, perhaps something was triggered, the corpse of Princess Xi slowly burst into black flames amidst the green mist...

Meanwhile, after forcing the four women back with a single move, Fei Chan landed and transformed back into the bald, burly man.

He grabbed the ox or horse that Sindo had transformed into, then roared furiously, his face contorted with rage, "Go!"

It instantly transformed into a golden light and disappeared into the distance!

Hearing his call, the pink-haired female pirate Mela glared fiercely at the four women, said, "We won't let you get away with this!", and then transformed into a streak of pink light, chasing after the light cicada!

Upon hearing her threat, the Candle Dance Serpent's eyes turned icy cold, and it roared to the sky, while the flames that filled the sky transformed back into Heavenly King Zhiyan.

She also stared blankly in the direction the "Heavenly Punishment Alliance" had fled.

She wanted to give chase, but she also knew that the reason the other party ran away was simply because they couldn't figure out Qinglan's abilities and were worried that Qiu Tu might complete his breakthrough at any time.

If a real fight breaks out, our side is no match for the other side at all.

Especially Qinglan, the main combat force on their side... Although she has all sorts of amazing abilities, she is not good at offense.

Thinking this, she couldn't help but glance at Qinglan...

At this moment, Qinglan was still hiding inside the iron pot and wouldn't come out at all.

She shook her head slightly. Although she felt regretful and thought it was like releasing a tiger back into the mountains, there was really no other way, so Zhiyan could only accept it...

'This could easily become a major threat...'

.....

Meanwhile, just as Heavenly King Zhiyan was worried...

At the edge of the Sangma area, Guangchan and Meila, who had escaped the battlefield, had just landed, each carrying a cow or a horse.

Seeing that Qinglan and the others hadn't chased after them, they breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Guangchan said irritably, "What kind of bullshit ability is this! It's so weird!"

At this point, he looked up at the horse perched on his shoulder and said, "Eighth-tier deities, in terms of both strength and rank, are already infinitely close to celestial beings. They are inherently 'immune' to many types of abilities."
