the host, would dare to do such a thing!You need to know, there are at least twenty sects that have entered the Falling Immortal Valley! It can be said that almost all the sects in Huaibei have sent...Luckily, he had just taken several pills of Gathering Spirit Dan, which began to take effect and restored a bit of his true qi during the fall. This allowed him to barely stabilize himself in mid-air at around 100 meters.

At this moment, the Shan Hai Jing has separated from his right hand and is floating in mid-air, trembling.

"". " /> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A roar, as if from the distant horizon.

At the same time, the radiance emanating from Classic of Mountains and Seas gradually transformed into the dusky reddish hue of twilight!

The powerful aura that accompanied the light, like a drumbeat striking the heart, was terrifying!

"Boom!"

Another boom echoed.

The light slowly faded away.

A monstrous creature with the head of a man and the body of a serpent, appeared in mid-air.

Its face is that of a human, with all the complete features.

The strange thing was its eyes, very long and thin, with just a tiny point of pupil showing, giving off a chilling glint.

Its nose lacked a prominent bridge, just two nostrils. The mouth, the most normal-looking part of its face, was a thin lipped maw that hadn't yet opened.

From the neck down, it was a serpent's body covered in crimson scales, coiled tightly together.

Judging from its size, the snake's body is about a hundred meters long.

From the moment it appeared, a pair of eyes fixed straight on Fang Yu, their gaze sharp and venomous.

Even Fang Yu, upon looking into its eyes, would inexplicably feel goosebumps rise.

This is not fear, but a subconscious warning!

This creature, resembling the Candle Dragon, gives off an extremely dangerous feeling.

"Could this really be the legendary Zhú Jiǔyīn!" Fang Yu looked at the monstrous creature with a human face and snake body before him, his eyes wide with shock.

From its appearance to the aura of danger it exuded, the humanoid serpent spirit before them bore a striking resemblance to the legendary ancient demon, Zhu Jiu Yin.

Unlike the mythical creatures, the dragon and phoenix.

The existence of Zhú Jiǔyīn symbolizes coldness and darkness.

Among all the myths and legends Fang Yu had ever seen, Zhú Jiǔ Yīn was considered the most dangerous evil spirit, having wreaked havoc on countless living beings.

"Don't even think about it, how could it possibly be the real Zhú Jiǔyīn" At that moment, Lǐ Huǒyù's voice suddenly rang out in Fāng Yǔ's mind.

"It looks like it," Fang Yu said.

“It’s just like that,” Li Huoyù said. “If the real Zhú Jiǔyīn appears, let alone facing it… this area wouldn't be a place where any living creature could exist… To be precise, everything within a radius of one thousand kilometers would vanish.”

"Hearing you say that...have you ever seen the true Candle Nine Yin" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.

"No... I just have memories about Zhu Jiuyin, but I can't remember which master brought it up. It might have been the first one, or maybe... I just can't recall." Li Huo Yu said.

"What about the Classic of Mountains and Seas Do you remember it" Fang Yu asked again.

"This... there might be, but I can't remember it right now." Li Huoyu suddenly became stammered, saying.

"You seem to be hiding something," Fang Yu said, "I'm your current master. Logically, you should have nothing to withhold from me."

"It's mostly about artifacts from other factions, so I can't comment much..." Li Huo Yu said helplessly, "Actually, I don't have any recollection of this Classic of Mountains and Seas."

"Alright, I'll trust you on this," Fang Yu said. "Whether it's the real Zhū Jiǔ Yīn or not, let's just call it Zhū Jiǔ Yīn for now."

During the interaction with Lihuoyu, this ominous spirit resembling Zhú Jiuyīn remained fixated on Fang Yu, utterly motionless.

"What does it want to do" Fang Yu wondered.

But at that moment, he felt a strange sensation under his feet.

He lowered his head and saw, to his surprise, that at some point, the lower part of his legs had become encased in layers of gray stones.

"Petrochemicals!"

Fang Yu's eyebrows shot up, and he pulled hard on the ground with his foot.

The petrified parts were incredibly hard, and this time, it didn't even tear them apart!

At the same time, these stones grew rapidly upward, as if they had the ability to sprout.

Fang Yu was about to use force to break free from these petrified parts.

But at this moment, Zhu JiuYin suddenly opened her mouth.

"Well..."

From its mouth, came an extremely bizarre sound.

A black aura surged towards Fang Yu's location.

In an instant, Fang Yu was engulfed by the black qi.

After two or three seconds, Zhu Jiu Yin opened his mouth again and exhaled.

The black qi that permeated the area around Fang Yu was dispersed in one breath.

In the air, there remained only one stone carving.

In terms of physique, it's Fang Yu!

Seeing this, Wang Canghe's face lit up.

Zhu Jiuyin...turned Fang Yu into a stone sculpture!

Wang Canghe mustered his last ounce of strength and flew towards Fang Yu's location.

But at this moment, Zhu Jiu Yin suddenly moved.

It leaned forward with its upper body, flying straight toward Fang Yu.

Wang Canghe immediately stopped.

He was equally afraid of this ominous spirit.

Zhu Jiuyin quickly approached Fang Yu's position, and on that eerie face, a chilling smile appeared.

It opened its mouth wide, as if it wanted to swallow Fang Yu whole.

"Bang!"

But just at that moment, the stone statue before them suddenly shattered!

"Hungry Then take my fist!" A golden fist shot out from the rubble!

"Keke..."

Zhu Jiuyin let out a piercing, sharp cry that abruptly ceased with a deafening bang.

"Boom!"

A fist smashed into Zhú Jiǔyīn's face, the entire skull exploding and extending along its incredibly long serpent body to the rear.

Layers upon layers of explosion! Shards of rock flying everywhere!

Fifteen seconds later, the malevolent spirit, which had caused considerable discomfort, vanished.

In the air, a gentle breeze rustled by, bringing an atmosphere of stillness.

That copy of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, its glow vanished, transformed back into an ordinary book and plummeted downwards.

Wang Canghe's face changed, and he immediately moved to catch it.

"Whoosh!"

But at this moment, a fleeting shadow passed.

Shan Hai Jing, firmly landed in Fang Yu's hands.

“With your ability, you are obviously incapable of wielding this artifact,” Fang Yu looked down at Wang Canghe and smiled faintly, “And a good artifact shouldn't be buried like this. So, I might as well take it.”

Fang Yu, in front of Wang Canghe, put this heirloom of the Wang family into the storage space of the Kongling ring.

Wang Canghe's face was ashen, his lips moving but not a word came out.

He knew... it was all over.

He lost, and the Wang family lost as well. They were defeated utterly, with no possibility of a comeback.

……

Fang Yu single-handedly grabbed Wang Canghe and returned to the top of the martial arts stage, appearing before everyone.

Seeing the last shred of hope gone, even Elder Three was captured by Fang Yu, unable to resist... The Wang family all trembled with fear.

"No..."

Wang Ming let out a wail, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fainted to the ground.

Wang Shuangfan in the distance widened his eyes, watching Fang Yu in the air and Wang Canghe he was carrying in his hand, his teeth chattering.

The other heads of household, their faces pale, constantly shook their heads, unwilling to believe the reality before them.

Wang Xiaodan had cried until there were no more tears left, she could not speak anymore.

Wang Xiaofeng, sitting in his wheelchair, looked at Fang Yu. The original resentment and anger suddenly vanished.

In its place was a profound fear.

As for the other prodigies of the Wang family, they didn't even have the courage to look at Fang Yu.

The audience in the stands were also staring blankly at Fang Yu, their mouths agape.

This is the Third Elder of the Wang family!

A Nascent Soul stage cultivator guarding the Wang family!

...Even he was not Fang Yu's opponent... Then the entire Wang family would be finished!

Before arriving today, they thought they would witness a thrilling showdown between two powerful figures.

The outcome... This confrontation escalated from a personal feud to a clash between individuals and their entire families.

...and the process… was not as dramatic and full of twists and turns as I imagined, but rather a one-sided crushing.

Fang Yu single-handedly... completely crushed the Wang family, known as the first aristocratic family in Beidu!f profound energy, his eyes flickering. 。"Brother Yu, what's this" Su Lengyun asked softly beside him. 。This is called Xuan Ran Qi 。Fang Yu replied. 。"What... does it do" Su Lengyun looked curiously a...
