The Dao Law God Chain whipped through the Void with a SWISH, SWISH, preventing the Lei Luan from coming any closer.

"Tai'a Divine Bottle, so it's you!" a hollow and profound voice suddenly echoed through the Void.

Master Ping gave a cold snort. "Jin Peng had a hand in the encirclement and slaughter of the Ancient God back in the day, too. And now, all that's left of you is a mere Residual Soul, yet you still dream of stirring up trouble?"

"Today is the day I, Master Ping, will end you!"

Suddenly, a faint yet sacred aura emanated from Master Ping.

Luo Xiu, who was standing to the side, was startled. Damn, Master Ping, you've really got some tricks up your sleeve!

"Kid, lend me a drop of your Emperor's Blood and watch me obliterate him!"

Without a second thought, Luo Xiu channeled his Qi to refine a drop of Essence Blood and flicked it toward Master Ping with two fingers.

Now that he had the Blood Fiend Jade Amulet, expending a drop or two of Essence Blood within a day was trivial for Luo Xiu.

After absorbing Luo Xiu's drop of Essence Blood, Master Ping's radiance intensified dramatically and his aura surged!

In just a brief moment, a figure began to manifest amidst the dazzling light!

Luo Xiu looked intently and was shocked to find that it was himself!

"Master Ping, what Taoist Art is this?"

Master Ping answered proudly, "This is a Manifestation Dao Body created using your Essence Blood via the Essence Blood Manifestation Art. It possesses the full strength of your prime but can only be maintained for a short time."

"Kid, get back and watch the show!"

Without hesitation, Luo Xiu flew to a distant mountain peak to observe the battle.

As the Manifestation Dao Body, identical to Luo Xiu, made its move, all manner of Daoist phenomena filled the heavens as green lotuses bloomed in the Void.

"Hahahaha... Truly worthy of being the Azure Emperor. So much stronger than you, kid!" Master Ping suddenly burst into laughter, seemingly very pleased with this power.

Luo Xiu, watching from afar, found these words quite grating.

Indeed, the Manifestation Dao Body seemed far stronger than he was in every way. Of course, this was because he himself did not know how to perfectly wield such immense power. To be precise, his current body couldn't handle that much power. But the Manifestation Dao Body was different. It had no need to worry about its physical condition and could unleash its full might without restraint!

With a thunderous boom, the world trembled!

The Lei Luan, under the control of Jin Peng's Residual Soul, released bolts of golden lightning. This destructive golden lightning also carried a vast and boundless Sword Intent.

"Golden Roc Sky-concealing Sword!"

Watching the battle, Luo Xiu's gaze darkened slightly as he retreated even further.

Such a powerful sword strike.

I wonder how the Manifestation Dao Body will respond.

Above the Golden Roc Nest, the immense Sword Intent blotted out the sky, spanning thousands of miles like a chasm in the heavens. Amidst it all, the Azure Emperor's Manifestation Dao Body stood quietly in the Void, appearing minuscule and ordinary by comparison.

Just as Luo Xiu was wondering how the Manifestation Dao Body would react, its eyes flashed with a green light. In an instant, it had perfectly replicated the "Golden Roc Sky-concealing Sword."

In a mere moment, a second chasm appeared in the sky above the Golden Roc Nest!

Seeing this, Luo Xiu's eyes narrowed. Is this Holy Blasphemy? It instantly copied the opponent's Taoist Art... It's even stronger than what Ying'er used before.

As the two identical Sword Intents in the sky were about to collide, Luo Xiu prepared to hide in the Land of Lawlessness. A clash of this magnitude would likely level thousands of miles in every direction. If he chose to stay and watch, he would undoubtedly be caught in the blast.

But just as he was about to enter the Land of Lawlessness, Luo Xiu suddenly noticed a Thunder Ball floating within the Golden Roc Nest, which was surrounded by several mountain peaks. The Thunder Ball was quite large, resembling a giant egg.

Luo Xiu had excellent vision. Upon closer inspection, he was shocked to find many figures trapped within the Thunder Ball, Luo Qingxian among them.

"Master Ping, keep the noise down over there! I have to go rescue someone!"

Luo Xiu immediately took off at full speed, flying toward the Golden Roc Nest.

The lives of others naturally didn't concern him, but Luo Qingxian was different. After all, she also bore the surname Luo and came from the Lingtian Plateau. Luo Xiu felt that this woman was, to some extent, related to him, so he couldn't just stand by and watch her die.

"Go rescue her! Master Ping has your back!"

In the instant the two terrifying Sword Intents collided, the Manifestation Dao Body waved a hand, and a Green Lotus bloomed in the Void.

"Creation Returning to Unity!"

A gentle green light quietly spread out. The terrifying power generated by the clash was extinguished by the green light in an instant. Not even the slightest sound was emitted; it was an utterly eerie sight.

Master Ping couldn't help but praise, "The Azure Emperor has a whole repertoire of unique skills, but you, kid, have no idea how to use them!"

Then, Luo Xiu saw the Manifestation Dao Body stride through the air toward the Lei Luan. With each step, the phantom of a Green Lotus appeared beneath its feet, causing the space around it to shatter.

Step by Step Lotuses Bloom.

Witnessing the Manifestation Dao Body approaching, the Lei Luan sensed the danger and immediately spread its wings, attempting to flee into the distance.

It believed that if it were struck by that footstep, its body would shatter in an instant!

Seeing the Lei Luan fly away, the Manifestation Dao Body remained calm and composed. With a casual wave of its hand, another Green Lotus Life emerged in the Void.

"One Flower One Realm."

BOOM!

A massive explosion suddenly erupted from the distant Void. The Lei Luan came to an abrupt halt, as if it had slammed into an invisible wall. It panicked and instantly changed direction, but no matter which way it turned, it could not break through the invisible wall in the Void.

The Azure Emperor's "One Flower One Realm" was a powerful formation that could create a self-contained world, trapping all enemies within it.

Just then, the Manifestation Dao Body took a step and instantly appeared above the Lei Luan's head. With a simple stomp of its foot, the Lei Luan's massive body plummeted to the ground like an arrow, creating a crater hundreds of meters in diameter upon impact.

Master Ping's godlike voice suddenly echoed through the Void, "A mere Jin Peng... to think you could soar to the heavens from beneath my feet?"

The Lei Luan shrieked in agony and swore furiously.

The Manifestation Dao Body stood proudly in the Void, looking down upon the Lei Luan in the massive crater. "Seeing your eagerness to die, you can try my most powerful technique," it said indifferently. "You should have no regrets dying to this technique."

The Manifestation Dao Body slowly raised its right hand. A Green Lotus bloomed in its palm, brewing with a terrifying aura.

"After my flower blooms... the hundred flowers perish!"

...

「At this moment, inside the Golden Roc Nest.」

Luo Xiu was momentarily speechless as he watched the Manifestation Dao Body perform a series of flashy moves from a distance.

He was this powerful, and he didn't even know it himself. Holy Blasphemy, Creation Returning to Unity, Step by Step Lotuses Bloom, One Flower One Realm, After My Flower Blooms, the Hundred Flowers Perish... Every single Taoist Art used by the Manifestation Dao Body was a pinnacle technique, unrivaled in this world! For a moment, Luo Xiu found himself feeling a bit of admiration for... himself.

SWOOSH!

While Luo Xiu was lost in thought, Master Ping suddenly flew to his side.

"It's over, it's over! The Manifestation Dao Body's time is up!"

Luo Xiu: "..."

Master Ping lamented, "What a pity! You didn't even get to use that ultimate move of yours, lad!"

Luo Xiu: "So?"

"What do you mean, 'so'?! We need to rescue those people and run for it! That thing will be on our tail any second!"

In a panic, Master Ping quickly pulled Luo Xiu and the giant Thunder Ball into the World Inside the Vase and beat a hasty retreat.

"Can't provoke him, can't provoke him."

"Things are getting dicey. Time to bail!"
