Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog

Suddenly, Xue Bailiu disappeared from where he stood, transforming into a gentle breeze.

Xiao Li, flying toward the distant sky, was suddenly surrounded by floating willow catkins. He felt an unfathomable force of rules begin spreading toward his two Pure Yang Treasures in front of him.

"What?"

Almost at the same time as Xiao Li’s slight change in expression,

he suddenly saw the fan and the short sword in his hand turn into fragile willow branches, which were then forcefully snapped by two hands...

Crack!!

These two terrifying Magical Treasures of the Fire Virtue Sect, which had nearly seriously injured Xue Bailiu, were unexpectedly snapped like two willow twigs.

And at the moment the two treasures were broken, the fireball below, the burning flames, suddenly extinguished as if they were water without a source, like wood without roots.

"Soldier Breaking Order!"

Below, Xu Fanfeng, who was tending to Xiao Tianzuo, who was barely breathing, turned pale:

"That is Senior Brother Xue’s family legacy, the ’Soldier Breaking Order’!"

Xue Bailiu came from a hidden family in Dragon Abyss, known for their ancestral philosophy of ’Breaking Arms to Stop War,’ passing down a famous forbidden technique through generations.

This forbidden technique involves transforming oneself into a breeze, burning everything, to break the opponent’s weapons.

However, once this forbidden technique is used, there is more than a fifty percent chance that one would vanish completely.

Thus, Xu Fanfeng turned pale.

But then, the crowd saw that gentle breeze, which passed by Xiao Li, suddenly having restriction barriers appear on the catkins.

"That is... the Life Rebirth Forbidden!"

The Life Rebirth Forbidden is one of the four courses taught by the Destruction Hall.

Its function is to transform Spiritual Cultivation and Life Skill interchangeably. As one who comprehended it second only to Chen Ku in a year, Xue Bailiu naturally mastered it to the point of perfection.

Moreover, he added his own understanding.

Just then, under the influence of that black restriction, Xue Bailiu’s body reappeared in the world, yet his face was extremely pale, devoid of color.

"Senior Brother Xue stored a part of his life force in the barrier beforehand..." someone exclaimed.

Obviously, Xue Bailiu discovered during cultivation that using the Life Rebirth Forbidden in conjunction with the family legacy ’Soldier Breaking Order’ could greatly avoid the repercussions after using the Soldier Breaking Order.

But the premise is to store a part of one’s life force in the restriction in advance.

"How dare you destroy my Magical Treasure!!"

Xiao Li, whose two powerful treasures had been destroyed, now had his black hair flying wildly, and the anger in the corners of his eyes burned as substance, floating around him.

Xue Bailiu had used several layers of forbidden technique, nearly reaching his limit.

Seeing Xiao Li seemed to have more tricks up his sleeve, he suddenly felt a bit disheartened.

At this moment!

Boom!

He turned and saw that the senior and junior disciples he sent to the main hall to rescue the Hall Masters and Instructor Tang Hemu were all vomiting blood and flying across.

He saw four elderly Qi Cultivators with white beards, white eyebrows, and white hair floating in the sky before the hall, all radiating the aura of death.

Each was holding a Pill Furnace in their arms.

Every time they waved their hand, a Fire Dragon no weaker than the Eleventh Realm flew out from the Pill Furnace!

Roar~~~

Under the roars of those Fire Dragons, only Tang Hemu and a few strong disciples remained uninjured, yet they were surrounded by the Fire Dragons, unable to escape.

"Children!!" Inside the hall, Zu Dengfeng and Ying Yunqian looked outside at the young disciples trying to break the formation from the four elderly Qi Cultivators, all gravely injured or killed, their eyes red.

"You four old fossils, once I get out, I’ll rip you to pieces!" Zu Dengfeng roared.

"Save your breath, Instructor Zu. We four won’t wait for you to come out. This formation will end in fifteen minutes, and our lives will follow,"

laughed an old Qi Cultivator whose beard almost drooped to his knees:

"We are nearly at our two-thousand-year limit. To trade our remaining few years for the fall of at least a hundred astounding geniuses in Ji Country is a bargain!"

As he spoke, they continued to attack, intending to refine Tang Hemu, Chu Fengwu, and other outstanding heroes to death.

Meanwhile.

In mid-air, Xiao Li, furious beyond measure, pulled out a third Magical Treasure after the previous two treasures were destroyed.

This was a scarlet red large bow with phoenix tail feathers on it.

When this bow was pulled out, even the void was collapsing.

The instant Xue Bailiu saw this bow, he knew the arrow shot from it would be earth-shattering!

"No, Senior Brother Xue is already exhausted and can’t withstand that arrow!"

"Senior Brother Xue is a hero of Dragon Abyss! He must not fall here!"

"I’ll do it!"

In an instant, several Martial Practitioner disciples of the Seventh to Eighth Realm flew up from the ground.

When assigned to batches, they were placed in the lower academy.

Yet now, they all flew into the sky without hesitation.

To shield Xue Bailiu.

The reason is simple. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

They all knew why they came to Divine Martial Mountain, ready to defend the nation and sacrifice on the battlefield from the first day.

If Ji Country falls, none will survive.

Not wanting to be enslaved, wanting to reclaim lost lands, half of the Divine Martial Mountain’s disciples came with a heart to serve the nation.

Once on Divine Martial Mountain, they were members of the army, all comrades-in-arms.

Courage to shield each other was never lacking.

Especially as Xue Bailiu was the top student in Divine Martial Mountain, an idol to everyone.

"Everyone, don’t!"

Xue Bailiu saw the students rushing to him like moths to a flame, his expression changed dramatically.

However, Xiao Li had already drawn the large bow.

This bow had no arrows.

But as his body surged with Divine Fire power, at the moment the bowstring was pulled, a golden arrow appeared on the bow.

Aimed at Xue Bailiu and everyone in front of him.

Xiao Li spoke indifferently:

"Vermilion Bird Profound Sky Bow, under one arrow, the void shatters. Do you think you can block it? Since you want to be strung together, I’ll oblige!"

Words fell.

Release, shoot!

Boom!!

Earth-shattering void waves surged out from in front of him.

"No!"

Xue Bailiu’s eyes lost focus, but at that instant, he saw the arrow piercing through the void arriving in front of them.

Below, all the students also saw the speed of that void-shattering arrow!

They all understood.

"No..." Xu Fanfeng and the six Sons of Yan Capital looked on hopelessly, knowing it was impossible to block that arrow even if more stood before Xue Bailiu.

This Xiao Li, just like Hua Yuexian before, could crush everyone at Divine Martial Mountain single-handedly.

Boom!!!

Blinding light exploded in the sky.

"Senior Brother Xue!!" "Junior Brothers!!"

Many students from the main hall cried out.

"Wait!"

Yet someone suddenly shouted:

"What is that? They’re not dead!"

In the sky.

Xiao Li’s expression slightly changed:

"Is this?"

After the massive flash, Xue Bailiu and the others looked ahead, only to find that the void-shattering arrow stopped before all of them!

In front of everyone was a silhouette.

A black-clad youth, with a hint of yellow sand beneath, seemingly carrying the scent of travel.

He extended his right index finger forward.

Space between finger and arrowhead measured three inches.

No matter how the void surged behind the arrow or how wild the Mana became, it couldn’t breakthrough before the youth’s finger.

"Who are you?"

Xiao Li asked.

Almost concurrently with his question.

A cry of joy erupted below.

"Junior Brother Chen!"

"It’s him!"
