"Those who exhaust their bodies to the point of disturbing their essence cannot be cured..."
Under the watchful gaze of heaven and earth, Refining energy gathered and infused into Jing Yuanziâs body, beginning the reconstruction of his severely injured Dao Body. As if dead wood met spring, and sprouts emerged after the rain, the old skin and flesh cracked apart, transforming into nourishment, while new flesh thrived robustly, reborn from a cocoon, scattering and reorganizing, seeking a path to life, evolving, evolving, evolving.
Gao Cheng was suddenly interested and snapped his fingers.
"Hey! Youâve actually attained Enlightenment? First, deal with this maggot!"
The female demon instantly appeared, her hand chopping swiftly, cleanly dismembering Jing Yuanzi into eight pieces, cutting him into fragments that fell to the ground.
Jing Yuanziâs head rolled on the ground, gazing at the sky he slowly said,
"Iâm not a maggot, my name is Little Pig."
Gao Cheng raised an eyebrow,
"Huh?"
Jing Yuanzi quietly said,
"Iâm Pig Boy, the master brought me back and just threw me in the pigsty, raised along with the pigs.
I grew up living in the pen, specifically cutting grass for the pigs to eat."
"Tsk, have you gone mad? Alright, let me know when the Demon is sealed."
Gao Cheng rolled his eyes, with a snap of his fingers dissipated the light and shadow, and went offline directly.
Thus, the South Heavenly Gate slowly descended, flying above Jing Yuanziâs head, projecting a curtain of light that enveloped him, instantly isolating the infusion of Refining energy, forcibly interrupting the evolution of the entity.
Jing Yuanzi also returned from the moment of Enlightenment and began to ramble,
"Actually, I donât hate pigs, little pigs are pink, soft, smart, and cute, and pigs treat me better than people, keeping me warm when itâs cold.
But the master liked to eat roast suckling pig, and I couldnât endure the beatings, so every time I had to cry while taking the piglets from the pen, and then feed the leftovers back to the sow.
So one day, that sow was so mad, it couldnât bear it anymore and ate half of my intestines, but I donât blame it.
Later, the master threw me into the mountains, where the master found me."
The female demon looked at him with a black, emotionless face, without compassion, swiftly wrapping Jing Yuanziâs hand and foot corpse parts with a black silk scarf, throwing them into the South Heavenly Gate.
"Three thousand six hundred years... I thought I had forgotten these things..."
Jing Yuanzi also turned to look at her,
"Hey! Iâve seen my whole life flash before my eyes, if you donât take action, Iâll really die here!"
And so, a hand seized the female demonâs throat sharply.
Yes, the hand took action.
It was Jing Yuanziâs severed arm that acted. However, it was seized.
At this moment, the entirely blood-red arm transformed into the carrier of the mighty Divine Sect! Ten Extremes Venerable! Law Enforcement Venerableâs entire Residual Soul! The final grudge of the Blood God Body!
"Divine Slaughter Blood Punishment! Blood God Great Method!!"
"Whooshââ!!"
Red light burst forth, piercing through the sky and earth, dyeing the sky completely red! That Divine Light seemed to set the skies ablaze!
Then the red light dispersed.
The female demon, with one hand, pulled the dried, exhausted of Essence Blood severed arm from her throat, wrapped it in a headscarf, and tossed it into the light curtain, collecting it.
Even the Blood Godâs sonâs great method canât take it...
Finally, the female demon picked up Jing Yuanziâs head.
Jing Yuanzi furrowed his brow for a moment.
But somethingâs not right, the gap is just too wide...
Even during the Lifespan Tribulation, it wouldnât be such a complete defeat with not a chance to counterattack, right? And what did that Gao just say earlier?
Was the South Heavenly Gate here to seal demons too?
No, if you think about it, during this tribulation,
Werenât the three of them actually on the same side?
"Ughââ!"
"Crackle and pop!"
Suddenly, accompanied by a vomiting sound, the veil suddenly seemed to dissolve, a large mass of sticky black oil-like asphalt dripped onto Jing Yuanziâs face, covering his head.
Then Jing Yuanzi felt his head fall to the ground, rolling in circles, his vision temporarily obscured by the black oil, glancing as he rolled, seeing the female demon suddenly lose strength, kneeling on the ground, tearing the veil like ripping human skin, revealing a head like a salted egg, the face turned inside out, exposing a pink, sac-like bloody mouth, amidst the harrowing screams and shrieks of "Awoo, aoooââ!", a storm roared from within the mouth, spewing like a violent jet, vomiting torrents of mud-like black water.
Then Jing Yuanziâs head was also pushed by the surging waves of black tide, rolling towards the seemingly bottomless, dark chasm of Nine Nether nearby.
Now reduced to only a head, for a moment Jing Yuanzi couldnât turn his face, so he desperately puckered his lips, bracing against the edge of the chasm, to prevent his head from falling in.
For a while, Jing Yuanzi was left with a crooked nose, pursed lips, staring at the abyss.
Then the abyss opened a pair of bright yellow eyes, with horizontal pupils glaring back, coldly saying,
"Are you shining a high beam at me?"
