　　However, after roaring this sentence, the only sound it could make was the continuous screams.
　　Zhang Tianze looked at the Octopus Demon with a cold gaze, and then looked at the sea surface below and said：
　　“You killed so many Red Armored Cavalry and common people in my Tianhai Town, and you still want to return to the abyss？ Dream on！”
　　While saying this, a ball of white light suddenly appeared on Zhang Tianze’s palm, and then he slapped the sea surface with one palm.
　　“Boom！”
　　Amid the loud noise, a huge palm shadow that almost covered the entire sea surface directly dispersed the surging sea water below.
　　In the depths of the surging waves towards the west, Xu Taiping, with a look of astonishment on his face, only saw two mermaid women looking up at him and Zhang Tianze angrily.
　　These two mermaid monsters are the legendary Shark Queens.
　　“Shua！”
　　With the sudden sound of breaking through the air, two spear shadows directly nailed the two Shark Queens to death on the seabed.
　　However, just as the burning sea flames on the long spears were about to burn those two mermaid queens to ashes, one of the mermaid queens suddenly swallowed the other one in one gulp.
　　Immediately afterwards, the abdomen of that mermaid queen bulged and burst open with a loud bang.
　　With a “boom”, a ball of golden light flew out from the abdomen of that mermaid queen. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a huge dragon with two wings and soared into the sky.
　　”Dragon？”
　　Xu Taiping looked at the dragon with black scales above his head in astonishment.
　　Although the dragon is far inferior to the real dragon, it is still one of the most powerful monsters in the world. After this kind of monster turns into a demon, its killing power is far greater than that of ordinary monsters.
　　”Daoist Taiping is in for a treat today.”
　　And after seeing this dragon, Zhang Tianze still had that indifferent expression on his face.
　　”A treat？”
　　Xu Taiping didn’t know what the treat in Zhang Tianze’s mouth referred to.
　　”The last time I killed a dragon was a hundred years ago.”
　　Zhang Tianze first smiled faintly at Xu Taiping, and then said：
　　”Daoist, you just wait a moment. I’ll go and come back.”
　　After saying this, Zhang Tianze’s figure flashed and he first appeared in front of that dragon.
　　”Roar！…”
　　The dragon first let out a roar, and then opened its mouth and spat out a surging black flame towards Zhang Tianze.
　　Facing this mouthful of dragon’s breath flame, Zhang Tianze, who was holding a long spear, dodged very calmly, and then thrust out with the spear.
　　“Boom！”
　　The moment the long spear was thrust out, a huge spear shadow followed and penetrated through the huge body of the dragon.
Seeing this scene, looking at Zhang Tianze’s “tiny” figure, actually killing a dragon without any power to fight back, Xu Taiping was inexplicably encouraged.
　　Especially when he thought that this General Zhang Tianze, like him, also had an ordinary bone, his heart couldn’t help but throb.
　　“Perhaps, as Sister Lingyue said, as long as you are willing to fight, even an ordinary bone body can be comparable to the gods.”
　　He secretly said in his heart.
　　“Boom！”
　　Not long after, in a shrill scream, the dragon with a body like a small mountain directly fell from the air and landed at the gate of Tianhai Pass.
The figures of Zhang Tianze and Xu Taiping fell accordingly.
　　Xu Taiping very dutifully opened the gourd containing the Burning Heart Oil and prepared to pour it on the dragon’s corpse.
However, when he saw the wings and dragon scales of the dragon that were shining the light of a magic weapon, Xu Taiping suddenly put away the gourd and then turned to look at Zhang Tianze and said:
　　“General, I have an unseemly request.”
　　“Daoist,　please　speak.”
　　“Can I take away the dragon bones, dragon tendons, and dragon skin of this flood dragon？”
　　Xu Taiping asked a little embarrassedly.
　　“What do you want them for？”
　　Zhang Tianze was a little Confused .
　　“To exchange for money.”
　　Xu Taiping answered very honestly.
Although it was a magic dragon, the flesh and bones on its body were actually not much different from those of an ordinary flood dragon, and even better, so the price was not cheap.
Zhang Tianze was stunned, and then nodded and said:
　　“Yes, but when I ask you to drink in the future, you will pay the bill.”
　　“No problem！”
　　Xu Taiping readily agreed.
　　“Taiping Daoist, you said you are a cultivator of Zhenwu Heaven. Are you also here to participate in the Golden Scale Association？”
　　While Xu Taiping was peeling the dragon skin, Zhang Tianze asked curiously on the side.
　　“Yes.”
　　Xu　Taiping　nodded.
　　There was no need to hide this kind of thing.
　　“If I have time at that time, I will definitely go and cheer you on for the Daoist.”
　　Zhang Tianze thought seriously for a while and said.
　　“Okay, I will treat you to a drink at that time, General.”
　　Xu Taiping smiled and agreed.
　　In his opinion, this was just the general’s polite words. A person of his high position and weight, how could he have time to cheer him on.
　　“Boom！… ”
　　Just then, on the western battlefield of Tianhai Pass, a pure white pillar of light suddenly rose up.
　　At the same time, a Buddhist chant sounded between heaven and earth.
　　Xu Taiping and Zhang Tianze turned their heads to look over at the same time, and then below the pillar of light, they saw a withered bone sitting cross-legged.
　　”That’s…　Master　Xuanzhi？！”
　　Xu Taiping had a look of astonishment on his face.
　　And Zhang Tianze also had a look of surprise on his face.
　　Immediately afterwards, Zhang Tianze and Xu Taiping saw that the flesh and blood of the withered bone was reborn little by little, and finally turned into a naked figure.
　　Looking closely, who else could it be but Monk Xuanzhi？
　　”Daoist Taiping, is this your friend？”
　　Zhang Tianze turned his head and asked Xu Taiping.
　　”Yes… but… he had already…”
　　”Is your friend a practicing monk？”
　　Before Xu Taiping could finish speaking, Zhang Tianze spoke up and asked again.
　　”Yes.”
　　Xu　Taiping　nodded.
　　”Then it’s not surprising.”
　　Zhang Tianze nodded, and then explained to Xu Taiping：
“The line of practicing monks lives towards death. Your friend has a deep affinity with Buddhism. He has turned a difficult situation into a fortunate one and now has obtained the loquat position in Buddhism.
　　Hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart suddenly filled with joy.
Leaving aside the Luo Han Guo position, the fact that Master Xuanzhi was alive was a good thing.

　　Three　months　later.
　　The capital city of Southern Chu, Shiyi Studio.
　　“A seven-year absence, and finally back.”
　　Xu Taiping looked at the plaque of Shiyi Studio and let out a long sigh of relief.
　　“Tut-tut-tut…”
　　Just after saying this, he suddenly pressed his hand over his eye, gritting his teeth in pain.
　　“Don’t worry, I’ll go in and get the Gold Essence Coins for you right away！”
　　Xu Taiping muttered in a low voice while covering his eye.
　　His Gold Essence Coins had long been used up, and he hadn’t had anything to feed the Lotus Eye for a long time. It had been hurting every day for the past few days.
　　Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to Shiyi Studio as soon as he entered the city instead of going to register under the Golden Scale List.
　　“Where did this beggar come from？ Get lost, get lost！ Don’t block our business！”
　　Just as Xu Taiping managed to calm the pain in his Lotus Eye, he was suddenly pushed hard.
　　Looking up, he saw that it was a shop assistant from Shiyi Studio.
　　“Beggar？”
　　Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his clothes and immediately understood.
　　After leaving Tianhai Pass, he went to the Blood Rain Forest for training. Every day, apart from cultivating, he was looking for demonic beasts to practice on and didn’t pay much attention to his attire. So he entered the city like this.
