Plucking a small orange, he peeled it with one hand and stuffed it into his mouth. Then Zhang Ze, chewing, placed the branch onto his bracelet.

The Holy Tree bracelet was drawn by the power of the Twin Tree Sara, and gradually, under Zhang Ze's casting, the two merged into a mass of Chaos Qi.

Zhang Ze changed his finger technique again, and moments later, a giant golden-green wooden stick appeared in his hand.

Zhang Ze gently raised his hand, the stick floated up, and as his thoughts shifted, this stick suddenly dispersed, transforming into a large bunch of golden toothpicks.

Zhang Ze sighed in relief; luckily, he had learned some real skills from his master, and hadn't lost the ability to transform a flying sword into thousands.

After patting the Hundred Treasures Bag, confirming that another Magical Treasure was in the first place, Zhang Ze untied the Golden Lotus, which was hammered thin as a cicada's wings.

As usual, Horror Saint opened his mouth to fire a tirade at Zhang Ze, but his healed mouth stopped halfway when Zhang Ze raised his hand and rushed forward.

Though its intelligence disappeared, its instincts didn't allow it to forget the oooh oooh oooh.

Horror Saint closed its mouth.

However, this time, it couldn't be tolerated.

The mouth must open.

As Zhang Ze approached, the battle pattern around him emerged, and under the enhancement of the Western Barbarians' Secret Technique, he forcibly pried open the Horror Saint's mouth despite its fist.

"Go!"

The wooden stick behind Zhang Ze, thicker than an elephant's waist, instantly thrust into Horror Saint's mouth.

Oooh oooh oooh!

When the whole stick was thrust in, Zhang Ze slapped a Golden Talisman on Horror Saint's nose, then pinched his sword technique, and the stick transformed into toothpicks.

Closing his eyes, Zhang Ze connected his Divine Sense to the eighteen hundred toothpicks.

He was going to perform surgery.

He felt surgery and swordsmanship weren't much different; after all, both involved cutting flesh.

Under Zhang Ze's precise control, the eighteen hundred toothpicks turned into the sharpest surgical knives, starting to remove the flesh parasitized by the Nine Huis.

With Horror Saint's self-healing ability, the Xiaoxue branches, and the Holy Tree's power, the wounds healed one by one, while the removed Nine Huis were expelled from Horror Saint's body.

All of this happened almost in an instant; when the Golden Talisman was fully stained, Zhang Ze had completed the surgery, sealing the Nine Huis into a new Taisui.

Xiao Yaozi, who had been watching all along, was initially pleased, but immediately became worried.

Though the outer space tentacled evil was removed, what about the remaining diseases on Horror Saint?

Mad Dragon Syndrome, Devouring Worm, Fiery Blood, Heart Poison...

Each is something that demands a dragon's life, and with Horror Saint's body's balance disrupted, it wouldn't be long before it turned into a puddle of filthy blood.

Fortunately, Zhang Ze was well prepared.

As Horror Saint's whole body organs rebelled and the virus rushed to the brain, Zhang Ze took out that treasure from the Hundred Treasures Bag.

[Ultimate Invincible On-the-Spot Resurrection Immortal Great Returning Pill]

This pill was obtained by his Junior Sister, who felt sorry for her brother, from Medicine King Valley after returning from Chang State.

It was said to have unbeatable healing effects; as long as there is one breath, it extends to two, two extends to four...

In addition, it can automatically cure all kinds of strange poisons in the world.

Simply an essential item for home travel.

Except for the pill being somewhat large, causing choking, and must be swallowed whole, it has no other flaws.

A black pill with a diameter of one meter and eight appeared in Zhang Ze's hand.

Throwing out this top-grade large pill, Zhang Ze kicked it into Horror Saint's mouth.

The instructions didn't say drink water to swallow, so eating it directly should be okay.

Oooh oooh oooh!

...

No one knew how much time had passed before Horror Saint slowly woke up, hearing voices that were chaotic and cluttered, similar to the whispers it heard when possessed by that evil being.

It wanted to get up, but felt immense pain all over its body.

Muscle tearing and injury were common to it, but this time, the pain was almost unbearable, as if it had just been dissected by thousands of blades.

Moreover, for some reason, its mouth and throat hurt too, like it had swallowed something overly large.

Slowly opening its eyes, it couldn't see clearly, but first smelled a mix of incense and roast meat.

Incense entered its nostrils, revitalizing Horror Saint, its vision refocused, and its eyes gradually brightened.

Despite its efforts, it felt a layer of blur blocking its view, preventing it from seeing clearly.

That blur was blue, like semi-transparent water, like...

Horror Saint angrily growled, voice hoarse.

"Xiao Yaozi! Move your rear from my sight!"

Xiao Yaozi, in Primordial Spirit form, stopped his fart-like casting motion, the incense disappeared, he flapped his wings to evade Horror Saint's biting maw, cursing under his breath.

"Hmph, ungrateful."

Hearing the commotion, Zhang Ze quickly put down the cards and chess pieces, joined Brother Feng and the Giant to check on Horror Saint's condition.

After subduing Horror Saint, Zhang Ze took it, following Xiao Yaozi to the true location of the Ancestral Temple.

A valley protected by an Illusion Array, filled with mysterious symbols of unknown origin.

Zhang Ze watched over Horror Saint, while Xiao Yaozi went to fetch Lin Feng and the Giant.

However, upon gathering, the group found themselves with nothing to do.

Because to open the Horror Temple, three twenty-sided dice had to be thrown into the stone bowl at the valley's center, all landing on six simultaneously.

But no one knew where Horror Saint had hidden its die.

So, until Horror Saint woke up, Zhang Ze and the others could only wait.

And to avoid boredom, Zhang Ze suggested using the dice to play some board games.
