Countless blood vessels interwoven above the Dragon Palace, forming a giant web, gradually constructing the four deformed Dragon Maidens of the Green Soft River Dragon King.

The Dragon Maidens all have the strength of an initial entry into the Void Refining Stage, but their intelligence is low.

The Merfolk were disassembled into flesh and bones, suspended in mid-air, with blood water dripping like raindrops, the unpleasant smell of blood piercing the nose.

The Green Soft River Dragon King repeatedly repeats the selection process.

The aura of the Void Refining Stage is relatively subdued, so those chosen are all at the Divine Separation Stage, and each faction does not mind a few more casualties.

They are completely using lives to fill pits, thus delaying time.

Bi Hengguang watched coldly from the sidelines.

Due to Zhang Qiyang's relationship, the factions did not dare to openly confront him, so he simply took it easy, taking one step at a time.

"Huh?"

Bi Hengguang's pupils contracted slightly, the Lifebound Flying Sword in his arms showed some reaction.

"Luoyang came to the depth of ten thousand miles? Much earlier than expected, if he is discovered by the Deceit Beast, big trouble might occur."

......

Li Mo and the five appeared inside the Dragon Palace, but in a corner of a side hall.

"Finally reached the depth of ten thousand miles, well, Elder Bi Hengguang is also here, seems we've caught up with fellow Daoists of each sect."

Li Mo had a relaxed and carefree look, flicking off the minced meat from his palm.

Clank.

The Illusion Fish Sword returned to its scabbard.

The four from Luoyang were silent, complex expressions staring at Li Mo.

The lower cultivation Jiang Xi among the three appeared numb, covered in filth, with blood water flowing down their pant legs, and intestines hanging from their shoulders.

Luoyang's situation was a bit better, although his magic robe had blood water, the exposed skin was clean, wiped away with just a swipe.

Yet, the shock in his eyes could not be shaken off.

Li Mo looked up at the Dragon Girls; Ye Zhuo Daoist, seeing this, reacted urgently and said, "Senior Brother Taiyi, don't rush to act, better to understand the situation first."

Jiang Xi spat out bone shards from his mouth, his fingertips showing a slight tremor.

The aftermath of the previous battle almost damaged his Tao Heart.

Usually, deceitful objects are more troublesome than cultivators of the same realm, but not for Li Mo; the means he showed seemed as if he was the deceitful object.

Daoist Bai Shuo feared Li Mo might start another killing spree without a word, hurriedly reminded him.

"Since we have caught up, Senior Brother, you may rest for a while."

"Rest assured."

Li Mo stamped his right foot, and the Ghost Tiger cleared away everyone's filth completely.

"Earlier, it was out of necessity; after all, if we hadn't taken the initiative, time would have run out."

Li Mo showed satisfaction.

Through the first nine thousand miles, the Symbiotic Dharma Body barely pieced together a Sword Cultivation Method of the Void Refining Stage using the Immortal Marrow aura of the Great Sun Sword Tomb.

[Disciple Sword Qi Fortune Method], but the content was extremely shallow, not beneficial at all for perfecting the Ancestor Beast Sword Scripture.

What Li Mo didn't expect was that just after reaching ten thousand miles, the Symbiotic Dharma Body already began to show signs of understanding Void Refining Techniques.

Several times more profound than the Disciple Sword Qi Fortune Method.

According to Li Mo's guess, Zhang Qiyang had already halted the descent of the Great Sun Sword Tomb; the distance at ten thousand miles was very close to the Sword Tomb.

It would be best to obtain the Immortal Marrow, but simply staying for a few days was also acceptable.

"No rush, at least need to confirm the strength of the deceitful object."

Li Mo didn't release his Lifebound Flying Sword; as early as six thousand miles, the deceitful object was able to detect a hidden flying sword, almost messing things up.

Later, he simply summoned the Buddha Demon Body, killing his way to ten thousand miles.

The internal space of the Artifact Pill Body had already piled up hundreds of deceitful object corpses, also a harvest from this trip, providing resources continuously through decomposition.

"Elder Luoyang, did that Lutou Mountain Dragon King not harm you?"

Luoyang came back to his senses.

"Hiss..."

"No." Luoyang smiled bitterly, he realized why Li Mo was an Innate Immortal Seed, with strength far exceeding his imagination.

Previously, upon inquiring Ye Zhuo Daoist, he learned that when Li Mo achieved the chief position, he had not even reached perfection in the Divine Separation Stage.

Initially, he thought suppressing the Sword Tomb was a bit crafty, but it was entirely his own underestimation; Li Mo had already shown mercy by not slaughtering the Great Sun Sword Tomb.

Luoyang recalled, due to the deceitful object riot, he prepared to summon his Externalized Dharma Body, but the newly expanded Fake Void Realm was full of holes.

He had never seen a Fake Void Realm attain Li Mo's level.

Just the faint aura revealed by the Externalized Dharma Body burst his Fake Void Realm; what kind of foundation would have such a Dharma Body?

Luoyang forcibly suppressed other thoughts.

Perhaps this is why the Three Pure Heavens could do nothing to Li Mo, and similarly, there are twelve Innate Immortal Seeds, all being senior brother and sisters.

The five people tried to avoid the Merfolk, not touching the extended blood vessel network, and the deceitful object did not realize there were living people in the Dragon Palace.

Li Mo determined the deceitful object's main body was underground in the backyard, with strength equivalent to the perfection of the Void Refining Stage.

He also noticed one thing.

The Southern Sea Dragon Palace had a strange rule similar to Night Patrol Deity's taboo, likely related to the Great Sun Sword Tomb, which was spiraling out of control.

Li Mo even suspected that the Great Sun Sword Tomb might be stuck on a certain level of the Southern Sea Dragon Pond.

Bang bang bang.

Li Mo was pondering over the deceitful object's main body's reality, suddenly feeling slight tremors on the ground, with obvious signs of combat in the direction of the reception hall.

A loud noise came, a Dragon Girl rolling continuously, with cultivators in her abdomen struggling madly, bit by bit losing strength under the erosion of flesh and blood.

After their death, blood vessels would draw out the cultivators' corpses, sending them to the backyard.

"I see."

Li Mo glanced at the backyard, seeing four or five bodies of cultivators at the Divine Separation Stage hanging high, their organs being gradually dismembered.

"Over time, the deceitful object will become increasingly difficult to deal with."

The main body of the deceitful object was selecting appropriate organs to integrate into itself, making the aura emitting increasingly intense, clearly showing a trend of transcending the Void Refining Stage.

"If killed now, it shouldn't take too long."

Li Mo's eyes flashed with killing intent.

"No, can't let the fellow Daoists of each faction take advantage without getting hurt, all afraid of getting injured themselves, pushing disciples out to take shots."

Li Mo chuckled sinisterly, then the Ghost Tiger swallowed his body, the Tattooed Beast heading towards the reception hall,

"Taiyi, currently, the deceitful object's aggressiveness is not strong, we can find a side hall to watch the situation change, if it worsens then..."

"Hm? Where's Taiyi?"

Luoyang couldn't help but twitch his lips, in the time it took to turn his head, Li Mo had disappeared without a trace.

"Uncle Luoyang, next..."

"Stop talking nonsense, of course, stay away from the reception hall and backyard."

The three of Jiang Xi looked at each other, thinking Li Mo would likely cause an earth-shaking disturbance, quickly following Luoyang and taking advantage of the chaos to escape.

Luoyang's foresight was correct, Li Mo didn't speak often but stunned everyone when he did.

Clang clang clang.

The Lifebound Flying Sword transformed into a Flood Dragon attacking the backyard, Water Attribute Sword Intent overflowing.

The Flood Dragon, albeit at the Divine Separation Stage, couldn't harm the deceitful object's main body, as blood vessels swept it into pieces, yet this made the latter even more agitated.

Roar.

A roar came from underground.

All the Merfolk began searching for Li Mo, countless blood vessels extending along the crevices of the floor tiles.

Meanwhile, the reception hall was silent.

The cultivators at the Void Refining Stage had already figured out the Green Soft River Dragon King's pattern, the gap for selection was around ten days, plus the struggles of Divine Separation Stage cultivators before death, delaying for half a year wasn't a big problem.

The practice of drawing lots also gave the Divine Separation Stage cultivators a sense of luck, as "better them than me" occasionally cost one or two lives, but it wasn't significant.

As long as they reached eleven thousand miles, the Immortal Marrow was within reach.

Zhang Qiyang was busy with the Great Sun Sword Tomb, too occupied to mind their small calculations, with a high probability of obtaining the rumored Immortal Marrow.

Thinking of this, Fu Wen couldn't suppress his greedy expression.

"The Hundred Faces Sect's Taoist inheritance proves highly useful in the Dragon Palace, no one notices our losses are minimal, hehehe."

Fu Wen licked his lips, realizing that betting everything on the South Sea was indeed the right move.

"So what if it's the Heavenly Sword Sect, they're still being played around."

The Hundred Faces Sect could disguise as others, the Divine Separation Stage Sword Cultivators at the Great Sun Sword Tomb were Fu Wen's handiwork, mainly to isolate Bi Hengguang.

Fu Wen sat confidently as if fishing with complete assurance.

But soon, he found the situation didn't develop as planned.

The Dragon Palace suddenly plunged into chaos, and the Green Soft River Dragon King became unstable.

Lanterns hanging from the eaves with human heads opened their eyes, examining every corner of the Dragon Palace.

"No clouds in the sky, no rain falls; no matchmaker underground, no marriage."

The Green Soft River Dragon King muttered madly.

Fu Wen realized that Luoyang, who had remained at the shallow level earlier, might have reached the Dragon Palace, causing the current upheaval.

The factions remained silent but inevitably had thoughts of surrounding and killing the deceitful object.

"Damn it, such poor timing."

"Once the factions unite, there's no way the Immortal Marrow would fall into my hands."

Fu Wen looked around; apart from the four Offshore Realm cultivators, all were panicked, Bi Hengguang even appeared restless.

"Must kill Bi Hengguang."

"Wait, who is this person..."

Fu Wen froze, noticing someone outside the window near the corner.

The Daoist had Yin Yang Taiji-like eyes rotating on his forehead, with extremely subdued spiritual power, holding a miniature planet rotating in the palm of his hand.

"Hehehe."

Li Mo could easily read the machinations inside, Divine Sense locking onto the Hundred Faces Sect.

"One Existence Stage Demon Cultivator, two initial Void Refining Stage Demon Cultivators, and twenty-six Divine Separation Stage, not bad."

The Artifact Pill Body rotated, the Cosmic Furnace acting on the Hundred Faces Sect Demon Cultivators.

Li Mo acted under the noses of ten or so Void Refining Stage cultivators, utilizing Ghost Shadow in conjunction with Spirit Root Worms, using "under-the-light stealth" tactics.

Fu Wen, disoriented, found himself in the endless Cosmic Furnace, with several dozen planets releasing extremely dense magnetic forces.

He opened his mouth wide, the massive ten-thousand-meter Artifact Pill Body's impact indescribable.

Fu Wen was filled with unwillingness, summoning his Dharma Body [Ancient Demon with Human Face], with the accompanying Void Refining Stage Elders fighting desperately.

However, unfortunately, the Cosmic Furnace's sturdiness far exceeded the usual, not collapsing under the Demon Cultivators' Fake Void Realms.

Twenty-six Divine Separation Stage were instantly reduced to corpses, drawn into the Artifact Pill Body's interior.

Burned, they transformed into nutrients, reinforcing Li Mo.

"Hehehe."

After confirming the Hundred Faces Sect posed no threat, Li Mo withdrew the Artifact Pill Body.

"Hah!"

Zhang Mu raged, initially intending to use the Hundred Faces Sect against the Great Sun Sword Tomb, but the result turned out to be incomprehensibly lethal.

"A rusty smell, what a cheeky Artifact Cultivator, are you courting death?!!"

Li Mo clasped his fist with a smile: "I am Taiyi Daoist, the chief of the Great Sun Sword Tomb."

"Due to urgent matters, I won't beat around the bush; if any fellow Daoists have opinions, I'll bury you along with them."
