2471: It's Not Me, Stop Making Baseless Claims!
2471 It's Not Me, Stop Making Baseless Claims!
When King Kun heard Song Shuhang mention Blacklist 2, he immediately became alert.
This was because he was currently in what was referred to as Blacklist 2.
What was even more concerning was that a supreme divine being, who had previously been in Blacklist 2 alongside him, was now deceased.
What did Tyrannical Song have in mind?
Why did he suddenly bring up Blacklist 2 upon entering the scholarly faction's territory?
Could it be that he had already detected King Kun's presence deep within Yuan Zi's consciousness?
Did he lure King Kun into the scholarly faction just to deal with him?
Was all of this part of Tyrannical Song's grand scheme?
In an instant, a million possibilities swirled in King Kun's mind.
No, he couldn't afford to remain passive.
He needed to take the initiative!
King Kun silently made up his mind.
Just as King Kun's mind was swamped with countless thoughts… suddenly, his main body received a private message from Profound Sage Tyrannical Song.
"Hi ~ Senior King Kun, good evening!" The greeting was surprisingly warm.
King Kun was certain that Tyrannical Song's friendly tone concealed ulterior motives!
"If it weren't for my consciousness trailing behind you already knowing that you were planning to deceive me, I might have fallen for your friendly facade." King Kun thought to himself.
So, should he respond to Tyrannical Song?
He knew Tyrannical Song was attempting to deceive him, but he couldn't fathom how.
This sensation was excruciating. It was akin to being blindfolded and suspended as a target in a 'knife-throwing game.' He knew the next knife would strike, but he had no idea from which direction it would come or which part of his body it would hit.
Just as King Kun hesitated about replying to Song Shuhang, Song Shuhang's friendly message arrived once more. "Senior King Kun, you don't need to rush to reply. I'm just greeting you, nothing more. Goodbye ~"
As long as the private chat was established, the blame would be deflected. Whether Senior King Kun chose to respond or not was no longer significant.
King Kun was confused.
Meanwhile, inside the barrier of the White Cloud Academy.
Song Shuhang nodded slightly. "Done. I couldn't catch any sheep…"
Deep within Yuan Zi's consciousness, King Kun was only growing more confused
Done? It was over?
Song Shuhang just greeted him and terminated the conversation without waiting for his reply?
What was going on?
King Kun couldn't comprehend Tyrannical Song's motives.
Could it be that he was bored and simply teasing him from a distance?
"Impossible, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song isn't that dull." King Kun immediately dismissed his theory. Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was a man who calculated each step meticulously.
From the fifth divinity show, it was evident that every move he made was deliberate, including stepping onto the node where the Heavenly Axiom had collapsed to prove his immortality and making contact with the Supreme Law of Speech.
This formidable man wouldn't engage in meaningless endeavors.
He must have covertly manipulated something in his main body during their private chat.
When King Kun thought about the now-deceased other occupant of Blacklist 2, he became exceptionally vigilant. Simultaneously, his main body rapidly deployed numerous defensive measures around himself.
Undoubtedly, this was a wise decision!
Just as King Kun established his defenses, a destructive will locked onto the deep sea where he was concealed.
This will was akin to the descent of Heavenly Dao, but unlike the Wielder of the Will, this will exuded an eerie and deathly aura, symbolizing death and annihilation.
This menacing will had King Kun in its sights within the deep sea. Subsequently, a terrifying spiritual impact traversed countless dimensions and descended upon King Kun.
"I've found you, Tyrannical Song," a mechanical voice devoid of emotion or warmth echoed within the mental assault.
King Kun was speechless.
Tyrannical Song? Me?
No, that's not right! You've got the wrong person!
In addition, he immediately deduced the reason behind Tyrannical Song's abrupt private message—it was undoubtedly due to that unexpected private message that had diverted the attention of the terrifying will!
Originally, this will should have locked onto Tyrannical Song, but because of Tyrannical Song's private message, it had switched its target to him.
Tyrannical Song had tricked him!
However, King Kun didn't have the luxury of time to vent his frustration on Tyrannical Song at this moment.
The hundreds of defensive measures surrounding his body were rapidly crumbling under the spiritual assault.
Ultimately, the spiritual attack, weakened to the brink by the layers of defense, struck King Kun's consciousness and caused his mental faculties to swell and burn.
King Kun was rendered speechless.
This cross-dimensional mental assault could swiftly dismantle a hundred layers of his defenses and eventually induce swelling in his mental faculties.
What kind of monstrous entity was this?
After a brief moment of contemplation, King Kun swiftly opened a spatial portal and exited Earth before returning to his main base, the Cloud World.
"Tyrannical Song," King Kun clenched his teeth.
Should he respond and reprimand him?
However, what if he was once again besieged by that monstrosity after replying to the message?
"I want to delete Tyrannical Song from my friends list!" King Kun attempted to send a request to the cultivation chat function.
"Ding! The handy squirrel from artificial intelligence customer service is at your service.
"Ding ~ Removing Tyrannical Song failed. The 'delete friend function' is not yet online. Please look forward to the next upgraded version."
"Damn it!"
How could it be that you couldn't delete someone from your friends list? Where was the rating system? It definitely needed to receive a few negative reviews.
"Then block Tyrannical Song's messages and refuse to receive his private messages!" A moment later, King Kun sent his request once more.
"Ding! The 'Block Friends' Private Chat' function is still in beta testing. You are not a closed beta user, so you have not activated this function. Please look forward to the next upgraded version. Is there anything else I can help you with?"
King Kun was speechless.
A while later.
"Should I top up?" King Kun inquired nonchalantly.
"Ding! The top-up system has not yet been developed. Your suggestion has been acknowledged, and we will attempt to add a top-up system in the next version. Please look forward to it."
"Damn it."
Shameless!
"Leave a negative review for Tyrannical Song." King Kun voiced his frustration while beginning to scrutinize this 'cultivation chat' system.
This 'cultivation chat' system was a potential liability. If he continued to let it linger on him, it would be equivalent to taking the blame for Tyrannical Song.
Therefore, King Kun aimed to reverse-engineer the principles of this 'cultivation chat' spell and remove it from his body!
Alternatively, he could thoroughly analyze it and use it to counter Tyrannical Song!
"Ding, successful negative review." No. Tyrannical Song's negative review count +1.
"Authority, what level of authority do I currently possess?" King Kun inquired.
Once he confirmed his own authority, he would use it to methodically test the foundation of this 'cultivation chat' function and ultimately exploit its weaknesses!
The day he exposed a vulnerability would be the day he could counter Tyrannical Song!
2472: Small Technique to Increase Prestige
2472 Small Technique to Increase Prestige
Just as King Kun was about to open the Cultivation Chat Group to remove it from its body or to find a loophole to counter Tyrannical Song, a shadow quietly approached it unnoticed.
The pot that Song Shuhang threw at it wasn't a non-stick pot, and it wasn't that easy to throw either!
Even though King Kun had used Dimension Transfer to move from the main world to the Cloud World, it still couldn't escape the lock of the pot.
The shadow approached King Kun quietly.
King Kun did not sense the other person at all!
King Kun was a genuine immortal, and Song Shuhang addressed it as "Senior King Kun."
Even if it wasn't good at fighting, every being who stepped on the path to immortality was a talent from heaven and was definitely not weak.
When the shadow got close, it suddenly exploded. Its body turned into a water curtain that covered the sky and enveloped the huge figure of King Kun!
Within the water curtain, space was sealed, and spiritual energy was separated.
It was only when the water curtain descended that King Kun reacted!
It hadn't expected that someone had gotten this close to it without notice.
"Heavenly Peng's Flying Technique!"
At a critical moment, King Kun quickly transformed and used an escape technique to narrowly avoid the sneak attack.
Boom!
Behind it, the water curtain enveloped the place where King Kun had been just moments ago. There was a deep pit in the ground.
This was the first time King Kun had encountered a monster with a better appetite than himself.
"Tyrannical Song, I found you!" The water curtain monster made a strange sound.
"Are you blind? Do I look like Tyrannical Song to you?" King Kun asked angrily.
"Don't think that I can't recognize you just because you've become a bit fat, Tyrannical Song!" the water curtain monster said coldly.
King Kun was speechless.
'Fat?!'
"Don't even think that you can scare me." King Kun stopped running away and turned around.
There were strong and weak immortals among them.
Unless one was as strong as the Scholarly Sage, who was half a level higher than ordinary immortal, there was no need to fear anyone.
A battle between peak immortals began.
After the collapse of the Heavenly Dao, all Tribulation Transcenders and immortals were no longer afraid. They wouldn't be able to attack with all their might anyway.
This was also the beginning of the world falling into chaos.
…
On the other side, at the White Cloud Academy's scholarly faction, Song Shuhang and the others were led to the world of the golden lotus under the leadership of a refined Tribulation Transcender.
"By the way, I still don't know your daoist names," Song Shuhang suddenly said.
After the four Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction were revived, they left with Song Shuhang's eyeballs. Song Shuhang had never asked for their names before this.
Up until now, the thirteen Tribulation Transcenders all recognized each other by their faces.
One was gentle and refined, one was in high spirits, one looked like a nerd, and another one was handsome.
There was also a radiant scholar who had borrowed Song Shuhang's ghost spirit a long time ago. He stood at the back, and his name was Yuan Zi.
Other than that, there was another scholar who looked ruffled and disheveled.
Song Shuhang had already met half of the thirteen Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction.
"Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, you two are still peers. We don't dare to call you by name," said the handsome Tribulation Transcender as he waved his hand.
Song Shuhang was confused.
Behind him, King Kun, who was in the depths of Yuan Zi's consciousness, heard this, and its heart stirred.
The strange reaction of the Tribulation Transcender of the scholarly faction towards Tyrannical Song only further confirmed his guess.
Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was very likely the reincarnation of a Sage. Otherwise, why would the Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction treat him so respectfully?
After entering the world of the golden lotus, the connection between King Kun's consciousness and his main body had been severed. Now that it had been detached, it could only rely on itself. It didn't even know that its main body was trapped by a water curtain monster.
"Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, you can call us by our daoist names," said the refined Tribulation Transcender as he pointed at himself. "I'm…"
"Twice the fool!" Fairy Creation called out.
The refined Tribulation Transcender was speechless.
"So, it's Fellow Daoist Wen Zi." Song Shuhang said with a nod. Just like his name suggested, Senior Brother Wen Zi was gentle and polite. That was the impression Song Shuhang had had of him.
At that moment, the handsome Tribulation Transcender beside him coughed softly. "I'm…"
"Thrice the fool!" Fairy Creation said again.
The handsome Tribulation Transcender was at a loss.
"So, it's Fellow Daoist Yan Zi," Song Shuhang said. He remembered this handsome Tribulation Transcender. When they first met, it was this handsome Tribulation Transcender who, after hearing Pavilion Master Chu's words, and cried out, " The hair becomes a spirit!"
The Pavilion Master Chu's hair had tied him up.
He didn't think this person was foolish. As expected, those who led these three were not ordinary people!
"I am the seventh fool," said the nerdy-looking Tribulation Transcender desolately.
He stood there calmly and waited for Song Shuhang to say his name out loud too.
Song Shuhang was dumbfounded.
The nerdy Tribulation Transcender looked at Song Shuhang with anticipation. That handsome face seemed to be saying, "Come on! Just say my name!"
Fairy Creation turned to look at Song Shuhang and said, "Yes. He is also foolish."
"Oh! It's Fellow Daoist Chi Zi!" Song Shuhang said with a bright smile.
The Tribulation Transcender, Chi Zi, was silent for a moment. "I said the same thing as her. You can understand her but not me? How is that possible?"
Song Shuhang was speechless.
"I don't know either. Anyway, as soon as Fairy Creation opens her mouth, I just get the answer. Maybe it's because you, Senior Brother Chi Zi, and I don't have enough understanding of each other?" Song Shuhang said.
The nerdy Tribulation Transcender thought for a moment and said, "Then, should we think of a way to understand each other better?"
"That's alright. There's no need for that," said Sho Shuhang and declined politely.
He and Senior Brother Chi Zi were not very close.
"I'm the last one," said the Tribulation Transcender who seemed to be in very high spirits. He waited for his junior sister to introduce him.
"You are fool number eleven," said Fairy Creation.
"Fellow Daoist Yu Zi," Song Shuhang said with a nod.
Wen Zi, Yan Zi, Chi Zi, Yu Zi, and Yuan Zi.
The daoist names of all the Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction seemed to be similar.
[The usage of the ancient language is slightly different from the present. Actually, you can recite the daoist names of the Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction in reverse. However, the meaning is similar.]
At that time, Pavilion Master Chu secretly informed him.
'In reverse? Zi Wen, Zi Yan, Zi Chi, Zi Yu, and Zi Yuan…' Song Shuhang sighed. 'Their status increased all of a sudden.'
The name was the same, but sometimes, when the order was reversed, it gave way to interesting things.
Then, if he reversed the order of his Sage Names…
Would Song Tyrant also sound good?
'Uh, forget it.' Song Shuhang shook his head.
…
While he was talking with the scholarly Tribulation Transcenders, Song Shuhang was multitasking.
Part of his consciousness was connected to Lady Dragon Network. "Lady Dragon Network, can you deduce the information about the guy who divined me from afar?"
"Tyrannical Song, please call me Miss Fat Ball," said Lady Dragon Network. "I can confirm the information now. According to the historical records, the data of the long-range attacker is Heavenly Path Molt Sphere."
"Heavenly Path Molt Sphere? Didn't I and Senior White Two already seal it?" Song Shuhang was stunned.
He had used the sealing pillar to seal most of the Heaven's Will Liquid Metal Ball. It was still in Senior White Two's nest.
Could it be that the Heaven's Will Liquid Metal Ball had escaped?
2473: Excellent T-Postures
2473 Excellent T-Postures
If the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball escaped the seal, it would be serious.
Not only would Song Shuhang's body be smashed into pieces, but the world would also be destroyed and cast into the abyss if he wasn't careful.
'I have to confirm this with Senior White Two and see if the Heaven's Will Liquid Metal Ball has really escaped from the seal.' Song Shuhang thought to himself.
"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so nervous?" At that moment, the stone stele at his waist sent a puzzled voice transmission.
Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet, Pavilion Master Chu, Lady Onion, Su Clan's Sixteen, Soft Feather, Little White Dragon, and the Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction were all looking at him.
Even if Song Shuhang was wearing a mask to cover his small face, his body language gave his emotions away.
He was like a barrage of comments unable to hide any secrets.
"Did you run into a problem, Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song? Do you need our help?" The gentle and polite Tribulation Transcender, Zi Wen, asked softly.
"If there is anything that we and the scholarly faction can do to help, we will do our best." Zi Yan patted his chest.
"I'm not sure if it's a big deal yet," Song Shuhang said.
He briefly explained to them that someone had divined him from a distance and suspected that the divination target was the Heaven's Will Liquid Metal Ball.
Zi Chi looked at Song Shuhang in surprise. "Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, have you actually seen such a thing?"
"I only encountered it a few times and escaped from its clutches. Later, with the help of Senior White Two, we managed to fight back."
When Song Shuhang thought of the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball, he still felt a lingering sense of fear.
He had used the Play-To-Win Strike on the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball. When he thought of it, his heart ached so much that he couldn't even speak.
'He actually fought back against the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball?!'
The Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction felt that Song Shuhang was not as simple as he seemed. Anything related to the Wielder of the Will wasn't simple.
Tyrannical Song could be said to be the cream of the cultivation world. There was no one in the universe that he was afraid to provoke.
At that moment, the four Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction began to suspect that Tyrannical Song was the reincarnation of their teacher.
The entire scholarly faction was spreading that rumor, and most of the scholarly disciples firmly believed it.
"F*ck Heavenly Dao Molting Ball!"
At that moment, King Kun in the depths of Yuan Zi's consciousness felt so wronged that it wanted to curse out loud.
Tyrannical Song was shameless. He lured the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball to his main body!
Luckily, its main body reacted quickly enough and returned to the Cloud World from the main world.
In the future, he had to be on guard against Tyrannical Song and absolutely couldn't give him any chance to take advantage of him!
Moreover, he had to find a way to send the information about the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball to his main body as soon as possible so that his main body could avoid suffering more damage.
…
"Right, Fellow Daoist Shuhang. If the divination's target this time is really the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball, then we must tell Senior White immediately… Please, ask if the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball has really escaped!"
Ever since Senior White Two made it into Song Shuhang's tombstone, he had been firmly remembering the words on it. He didn't want to be as reckless as Tyrannical Song.
After all, people only had one life.
"Too late!" At this time, Senior White Two's cold voice sounded from Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet's body.
In the next moment, the stone tablet's body began to spiral toward the top of the world of the golden lotus.
The world of the golden lotus was an independent space. Under normal circumstances, even the power of the ruler of the Netherworld would be blocked.
However, Senior White Two's main body was in the world of the black lotus, which existed in parallel to the world of the golden lotus.
In addition, Song Shuhang was also in the world of the golden lotus, and with his Inner World acting as a medium, Senior White Two could use his Inner World to influence the stone monument in the world of the golden lotus.
"Lord White, please spare my life!" Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet was terrified. In fact, spiraling up into the sky was nothing to him. However, White Two was the ruler of the Netherworld, and it was disastrous to anger him. At that moment, admitting defeat was the safest choice.
"Senior White, please wait… I'm just an innocent passerby too!" Song Shuhang said sadly.
It was clearly Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet's fault. But Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet was tied to his waist, so he was sent into the sky in a spiral.
The innocent bystanders suffered the most.
Since it was Senior White Two who had made the move, Song Shuhang and Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet's went spiraling as fast as a gust of wind.
Besides, their posture was different from the normal coiling flight technique.
The man and the stele formed a T-shaped bamboo dragonfly.
Song Shuhang was horizontal.
Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet, who was at Song Shuhang's waist, had turned into its original size, and was spinning madly against Song Shuhang's waist.
Everything in the world was dependent on cause and effect. Whatever one did to others would come back to bite them.
Su Clan's Sixteen, Soft Feather, Little White Dragon, and the Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction all raised their heads and watched Song Shuhang ascend to the sky.
"I want to fly higher… I want to fly higher… I want to dance like a wild wind… I want to break free," sang Fairy Creation and added to Song Shuhang's plight.
The song, along with the spinning Song Shuhang and Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet in the sky, certainly made an interesting sight to see.
"As expected, this stone tablet is extraordinary! Although it is only at the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm, the power hidden within it is terrifying." King Kun's consciousness confirmed its guess.
"Ka…ka…ka…"
A strange sound rang out in the void. It sounded a little like the shutter of a camera. He wondered what Senior White Two was doing.
…
After Fairy Creation finished singing, Senior White Two finally let go of the stone tablet and allowed Song Shuhang and Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet to descend from the sky.
After landing safely on the ground, Song Shuhang's legs felt wobbly. "Senior White, if you want to make a move on Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet next time, can you please warn me first so that I can sacrifice him—"
Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet quickly interrupted him. "You and I are connected. If you die, I will become a lifeless stone. No matter what happens, I will never leave you."
Song Shuhang was speechless.
"The Heavenly Dao Molting Ball in my nest hasn't changed and is still sealed. There's nothing unusual about the seal." Senior White Two's voice rang out in Song Shuhang's mind.
'There was nothing unusual about the seal?'
Song Shuhang frowned. Suddenly, he thought of something. 'Could it be that the thing that attacked me was another Heavenly Dao Molting Ball?'
The Fat Ball was already the Eighth Stage Realm. There were so many Wielders of Heaven's Will before it, so there must be something else left behind!
2474: The Essence of History is a Replay Machine
2474 The Essence of History is a Replay Machine
"Perhaps there will be something like 'Heavenly Dao Molting White,' 'Heavenly Dao Molting Eye,' or 'Heavenly Dao Molting Dragon' among them?" Song Shuhang pondered while rubbing his chin.
Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet was speechless.
In the next moment, Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet, who had moments ago declared, 'We will never part in life and death. If you die, I will be the tablet,' swiftly untied the rope connecting him and Song Shuhang. He leaped gracefully into the hands of Fairy Creation while transforming into a bystander tablet to avoid being entangled in Song Shuhang's tribulation.
Song Shuhang looked puzzled.
However, Senior White Two showed no reaction to the term 'Heavenly Dao Molting White.' It seemed that he could accept the term 'Heavenly Dao Molting White'—maybe because it didn't describe him, so he didn't mind it?
Seeing that Song Shuhang wasn't sent soaring into the sky, Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet felt somewhat regretful.
"The thoughts of the ruler of the Nine Worlds are too complex and unpredictable. It's impossible to fathom."
At this moment, Senior White Two's voice echoed in Song Shuhang's mind again, "Don't overthink it… The one who attacked you is still the 'Heavenly Dao Molting Ball.'"
Song Shuhang was taken aback.
Wasn't the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball still sealed?
"The fat ball is in a unique state. Its remnants were born before the Heavenly Dao collapsed and were sealed by us. And after the complete collapse of the Heavenly Dao Ball, a new 'Heavenly Dao Molting Ball' was born in the world again to wander around. You can think of it this way: the previous Molting Ball wasn't entirely deceased, only half of it perished. This time, it's the other half of the molt left behind after its demise," Senior White Two explained.
The Heavenly Dao governed countless realms, so a complete molt wouldn't be so diminutive. In fact, in the obscure corners of every plane, new Heavenly Dao remnants could emerge at any moment. The quantity might not even be singular.
Unless he waited for the new Heavenly Dao to vindicate the Dao, he could sweep across countless realms and conceal the Heavenly Dao Molting again.
"Not dead? Half dead, half alive?" Song Shuhang gazed at the sky. As expected of the Wielder of the Will, he possessed numerous tricks up his sleeve.
"Half dead, half alive, are you referring to Shuhang?" The voice of the Heart Demon Sword emanated from the cocoon of virtue. Even encased in the cocoon, it refused to relinquish its role as a heart demon.
"I'm not half dead. I'm as dead as it gets, down to just one head," Song Shuhang retorted.
"Ah! He's dead! He's dead!" While they conversed, Lady Onion's voice suddenly resonated.
Song Shuhang was perplexed.
When did Lady Onion become so immersed in character?
Did the trinkets on his person evolve toward actors?
"It's crushed to death. No! It's crushed to death!" Lady Onion exclaimed dramatically. She had been watching Song Shuhang's Profound Sage Speech and had been fine until now. Suddenly, the scene shifted, and she found herself in Song Shuhang's visual experience while getting crushed by the fat ball from another perspective. This pain was a hundred thousand times worse than when the green onion was unsheathed, and the green onion shoot fell.
What made Lady Onion feel even more despair was that she had experienced this before! Back then, she was in Song Shuhang's arms, being sliced into pieces and resurrected repeatedly.
But this time, she entered Song Shuhang's viewpoint and underwent the agony of being run over by the fat ball. Looking at the same event from a different angle was a novel experience!
Because she had lived through the original incident, Lady Onion knew well that this ordeal of being crushed to death wasn't just a one-time occurrence but an unending loop!
How cruel was the life of a green onion!
"I'm joining in!" Soft Feather chimed in excitedly. "Ah! My whole body is being crushed! How miserable!"
Song Shuhang stared at Soft Feather in bewilderment. He didn't detect any signs of 'pain' on Soft Feather's person.
Come to think of it, could the owner's pain be transferred to the ghost spirit? Had Soft Feather shifted her agony to the Heavenly Emperor?
On the other hand, Su Clan's Sixteen's cute visage was contorted, evidently enduring the pain.
"That's why I told you not to watch the live broadcast," Song Shuhang sighed. He extended his hand, procuring the same type of sheet as the Almighty Merchant, wrapping Lady Onion, Su Clan's Sixteen, and Soft Feather, allowing them to recline.
"Ah, he's resurrected! Who's the one who revived him?" Lady Onion clutched the green onion shoot, screaming at the top of her lungs.
In the adjacent room, Senior Eternal Fire, who had just rushed over with enthusiasm and was about to meet his young friend Song Shuhang, stiffened slightly.
"Hold on, the pain will pass," Song Shuhang consoled, helpless that his 'pain immunity' couldn't produce a vaccine to alleviate the pain for Su Clan's Sixteen and the others.
Seeing Sixteen endure the suffering and hearing Lady Onion's cries, he felt powerless.
"Take them to the Inner World," Pavilion Master Chu suggested, her mind in a haze. "The Living Spring can alleviate their mental anguish."
Song Shuhang's eyes brightened at this suggestion. "The Living Spring can alleviate mental pain to some extent!"
"Senior Song, I don't need it," Soft Feather waved it off. "I don't feel pain at all."
"Don't be complacent… The longer the painful experience, the more excruciating it becomes," Song Shuhang cautioned. He reached out, gently placing Su Clan's Sixteen, Soft Feather, and Lady Onion into his Inner World and situated them alongside Pavilion Master Chu's main body, who was busy blowing bubbles.
The White Dragon opted to stay behind, transitioning from Su Clan's Sixteen's neck to Song Shuhang's. For the moment, she preferred facing Pavilion Master Chu's foolishness rather than entering the Inner World.
She would rather endure Pavilion Master Chu's ineptitude.
"In the Confucianism world, which is clearly isolated, Tyrannical Song can still develop his own small world? Is his small world that formidable?" King Kun, residing within Yuan Zi's consciousness, pondered and made a note of this information.
It was a 'what if' statement. If they ever needed to target Tyrannical Song in the future, they'd have to find a way to imprison this unique small world. Otherwise, Tyrannical Song could employ this small world for offense, defense, and escape. Therefore, they needed a strategy to limit it!
After sealing his Inner Small World, Song Shuhang exhaled deeply. "The new Heavenly Dao Molting Ball is a headache."
"A new Heavenly Dao Molting Ball? Molting Ball Two?" Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet inquired.
The White Dragon inquired, "Do you have a plan?"
"No, but I have experience. Perhaps I can use the same trick again," Song Shuhang mused while extending his hand to touch the sealing pillar that enclosed the Confucian Classic, which restrained the fat ball boss.
There appeared to be some kind of fate between the sealing pillar and the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball.
History was, at its core, a recorder.
Perhaps Heavenly Dao Molting Ball Two was destined to be sealed within the fat ball boss's pillar?
"However, to seal the Heavenly Dao Molting Ball, I'll need cooperation from someone," Song Shuhang contemplated.
Boom!
Just as he pondered, a violent tremor shook the world outside the golden lotus.
"I implore you to open your eyes and cease being so oblivious! The Tyrannical Song you seek is right here, within the scholarly faction! So, cease chasing me!" A thunderous voice echoed from beyond the White Cloud Academy and reverberated into the world of the golden lotus.
2475: Broken Formation!
2475 Broken Formation!
"Damn it, stop chasing me. I already said, Tyrannical Song is down there. What does it have to do with me if you want to find Tyrannical Song?" The thunderous voice roared angrily.
'This voice? Hold on, my main body is coming!' The divine sense within Yuan Zi's body, belonging to King Kun, heard this voice and became distressed.
'Main body, please don't come!'
Tyrannical Song was clad in divine gear while accompanied by more than five Immortals. It was a lethal team, and anyone approaching would meet their doom!
"Huh? Is that Senior King Kun?" Song Shuhang listened closely and identified the owner of the voice.
Senior King Kun's voice was quite distinctive and highly recognizable.
However, why was King Kun here?
It seemed like he was being pursued.
Furthermore… just now, King Kun had shouted, 'Tyrannical Song is in the scholarly faction.'
'Did the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball locate Senior King Kun through remote divination and chase him all the way here?' Song Shuhang did some mental calculations and formed a hypothesis.
"Senior King Kun? I remember! This senior once challenged his teacher… Our teacher battled with him for a full day and night and used it as a teaching tool by projecting the fight to the scholarly faction. It demonstrated the combat methods among Immortals. Additionally, our teacher experimented with several new spells on him.
"Right, Senior King Kun's exploits are still documented in our scholarly textbooks," Seventh Senior Brother Chi Zi pondered.
'I don't care about my reputation!' King Kun's consciousness within Yuan Zi's body roared in frustration.
Originally, it had battled the Scholarly Sage for a whole day and night while earning recognition from the myriad worlds. After all, not many could engage the Scholarly Sage in combat for an entire day and night during the ancient Undying battle.
It hadn't expected that the Scholarly Sage would use it as teaching material to instruct his disciples while battling. Moreover, it was recorded in textbooks.
Darn it, it had to find a way to erase its presence from the Confucian textbooks!
…
…
"Somebody is chasing after King Kun… King Kun is a veteran Immortal, incredibly powerful. Who could possibly be pursuing him all over the world?" Second Senior Brother Wen Zi frowned. Moreover, judging by King Kun's recent shout, the formidable entity chasing him seemed to be targeting 'Tyrannical Song'?
"Instruct all members of the scholarly faction to retreat to the Golden Lotus World!" Third Senior Brother Yan Zi calmly ordered.
The opponent was after Tyrannical Song, so there might be a fierce battle ahead. In this situation, the Golden Lotus World's protective effect would come into play. With the Golden Lotus World shielding them, the scholarly faction would be invincible no matter what peril they faced!
"If my deduction is correct, it's probably the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball," Song Shuhang calmly analyzed.
At the same time, he reached into his Inner World and retrieved the 'sealing pillar' containing the Confucian Classics.
In full view of everyone, Song Shuhang's hands began to rub the sealing pillar. His long hair transformed into twenty hands, all rubbing vigorously against the pillar.
With each stroke of the twenty-two palms, a seven-colored light emanated.
The sealing pillar containing the Confucian Classics trembled continuously.
Did Song Shuhang's palm strokes somehow enhance it?
'Has my main body been overtaken by the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball?' King Kun's wisp of consciousness was infuriated.
'Moreover, is Tyrannical Song trying to unseal it? Wait, that's not right; it's clearly strengthening the seal!' It couldn't fathom Tyrannical Song's intentions.
"No, time is too pressing." Song Shuhang let go of the sealing pillar.
To establish a rapport with the sealing pillar, he would need to practice the Blade Nurturing Technique for at least a full day and night. If the time was too short, it would be ineffective.
He had no choice but to temporarily abandon the idea of using the sealing pillar to bind the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball.
In that case, he would have to resort to the Artificial World Unknown White 1-33 Sealing method. Originally intended for sealing the clone of the fat ball boss, it now appeared necessary for another ball.
Although the situation was dire, Song Shuhang remained unfazed.
His Inner World was still resolute, and Senior White Two's consciousness was right beside him to provide a deep sense of security.
"What's happening outside?" the White Dragon raised her head and inquired.
"That's right." Senior Eternal Fire stepped forward from behind and responded, "The entity suspected to be the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball is still pursuing Senior King Kun. It's as if it has identified King Kun as Shuhang. This gives our scholarly faction enough time to retreat."
Having said that, True Monarch Eternal Fire extended his hand and projected the outside world's situation into the Golden Lotus World.
Outside the scholarly faction's defensive barrier, a pitch-black liquid sphere was relentlessly chasing King Kun.
The liquid metal sphere employed a straightforward and brutal attack method: it transformed into a terrifying water curtain that continually enveloped King Kun, intent on engulfing him entirely.
King Kun evaded constantly while launching Dao techniques from his body that bombarded the liquid metal sphere. However, his attacks were all absorbed by the water curtain of the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball. In fact, this Heavenly Dao Molt Ball could even regurgitate a portion of the absorbed Dao techniques.
During this time, King Kun attempted to break through the scholarly faction's sect protective formation.
However, the strength of the scholarly faction's sect protective formation exceeded King Kun's expectations. This formation had been reinforced by someone and possessed the power of an Immortal. Moreover, those who covertly reinforced the sect protective formation were orthodox Confucian cultivators.
At some point, another Immortal had appeared in the scholarly faction?
Additionally, after four of the 13 Tribulation Transcenders had been resurrected, they had also been repairing the sect's protective array.
Under the dual reinforcement, King Kun was unable to break through the scholarly faction's formation for the time being and couldn't lure the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball to the scholarly faction.
King Kun was furious and wished he could swallow Tyrannical Song, digest him, and then extract him to fertilize the flowers!
"We should document this scene. By doing so, before the four of us dissipate, we can weaken the influence of the laws here and replenish our scholarly teaching materials database," Second Senior Brother Wen Zi said gently.
The scholarly faction had undergone several calamities, and their library of teaching materials was significantly depleted. During this period, the four of them had been frantically replenishing their database. Before they vanished, they wanted to leave behind even more precious knowledge and wealth for the scholarly faction.
"I've been recording since the beginning," Senior Eternal Fire nodded slightly.
"That's right, why didn't I think of that!" Song Shuhang thought to himself.
He was someone with disciples, and he would undoubtedly need to impart various knowledge to them in the future.
In the past, he hadn't thought to secretly record battle scenes while facing formidable adversaries. How much knowledge and teaching material had he squandered?
Knowledge was also wealth.
Boom!
At that moment, the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball suddenly exerted a hidden force and increased its speed several times over before crashing into King Kun's body.
King Kun's massive form collided with the scholarly faction's protective formation and spat out… a plethora of treasures!
These treasures scattered on the ground, gleaming brightly.
These were all the precious collections of King Kun, stored within his belly's spatial domain. However, they had been forcefully ejected by the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball.
Crack!
At the same time, the scholarly faction's sect protective formation could no longer hold and shattered.
King Kun and the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball crashed into the scholarly faction!
