    Chapter 662: Imprisoned for Three Hundred Years

    Li Hui prepared three Dao talismans.

    Although they were called talismans, they barely touched upon the Dao; they contained only strands of Dao Rhythm connecting the might of heaven and earth, harnessing a fierce aura to annihilate enemies.

    These talismans didn’t need nurturing; they would dissipate after a single use. Hence, without concern for cost, he stacked as much talisman power as possible, planning to unleash a dazzling explosion against his foe.

    The Nether River Death Talisman left no trace; as the Nether River approached, it extinguished all life.

    Such a talisman grasped at life and time, turning victory and defeat into nothingness. It felt as if one lived an entire lifetime within an instant, crossing vast ages to step into death, half of one’s body buried in the earth.

    “Ah…” Xiang Long Wang found his throat painfully constricted; he could barely speak. With his gray hair hanging limply, he had never felt so exhausted, so defeated, so powerless.

    At that moment, despite utilizing countless techniques, Xiang Long Wang could not reverse the trend of his demise. His body quickly contracted, transforming into a thin, withered form, his vitality depleted, dying for good.

    This was the power of the talismans; from the Dao they originated, regardless of one’s extraordinary abilities, as long as one hadn’t escaped the Dao, they would be oppressed and their lifespan diminished.

    Ouyang Xiao Yi and Li Hui stood hand in hand in the air, looking at Xiang Long Wang, their pupils contracting to the fullest. With a serious tone, she said, “He is trying to find a way to resurrect in the second life, aided by a treasure incredibly close to a fragment of the Dao, expanding his foundation; the second life will be even more difficult.”

    “It’s not a second life,” Li Hui shook his head, his gaze shifting to a white figure slowly rising from his eye, searching the skies and the earth. He ultimately locked onto the black dragon beneath Xiang Long Wang: “The enemy is cunning; he hides his true self within the Reverse Scale of this black dragon. Once the Nether River Death Talisman emerges, demanding his life against heaven, no matter how many substitutes he prepares, his true self will be annihilated once. He used the treasure to protect his heart’s pulse, saving a drop of his essence blood to escape annihilation, then accelerated time to regenerate life. He has completed this; the substitute atop the black dragon is merely for show.”

    “Boom, boom…” The vessel atop the black dragon exploded, vanishing completely. Simultaneously, the black dragon shattered, and a long figure floated forth.

    Xiang Long Wang’s true form appeared in his twenties or thirties, bare-chested with pale skin, looking very weak. However, a surge of dragon power radiated from him, and an ominous vitality surged.

    His left arm was covered in corpse spots, while his right arm was adorned with many Demonic Patterns. A pair of black dragon horns emerged from his forehead, unlike Li Hui’s Wisdom Dragon Horn, entwined with motives of death and demonic intent.

    Ouyang Xiao Yi was stunned, “How is this possible? Where did he acquire the Reversed Demon techniques? He actually cultivates them alongside the future Stellar Corpse Buddha Scripture, drawing upon death and demonic intent to combat, utilizing two terrifying techniques in battle.”

    “Hahaha…” Xiang Long Wang laughed loudly, “I must thank you both for allowing me to die once; finally, I’ve pushed the future Stellar Corpse Buddha Scripture to its peak. My left arm is the hand of the Corpse Buddha, and my right arm has become the claw of the Reversed Demon. I never anticipated that in this vast universe, a Reversed Demon could develop feelings and form a partnership with a lower realm cultivator. Those earth-level old fellows would exterminate you both across all timelines if they uncovered this matter.”

    Li Hui quickly reacted, narrowing his eyes and saying, “I see now, the Law Hwa Sect is a sect cultivated in the Heavenly Realm. However, you cultivate the future Stellar Corpse Buddha Scripture to combat the Reversed Demon techniques. Those earth-level old fellows wouldn’t fare well if they uncovered this, would they?”

    “Hmph, what do my few taboos amount to compared to yours?” Xiang Long Wang retorted, but suddenly moved closer, a glimmer of light flashing at his heart as he activated his innate treasure.

    “Swish…” The figures of Li Hui and Ouyang Xiao Yi faded, and an enormous talisman that resembled a flag appeared in their place, radiating five-colored poisonous light that swirled wildly, scaring Xiang Long Wang into retreat.

    Li Hui’s voice echoed from afar, “I told you I would kill you three times. The Nether River Death Talisman is the first, and this Poisonous Illusion is the second.”

    “Poison? Damn it.” Xiang Long Wang cursed, “You arrogant little brat; are you even a righteous cultivator? Using underhanded methods, whether it’s the Nether River Death Talisman or Poisonous Illusion.”

    “I have no choice; I never picky when making talismans. Anything usable goes into the mix, so you’d better truly reincarnate once, or you’ll dissipate with the winds,” Li Hui said, exasperatedly. He was swiftly moving Ouyang Xiao Yi, for as Xiang Long Wang had stated, if those old fellows among the Reversed Demons discovered the partnership between him and the Reversed Demon, they would surely act to eliminate them both. Therefore, he had to quickly figure out how to conceal this matter without revealing the opportunity.

    “Husband, what are you planning to do?” Ouyang Xiao Yi trembled; she felt like a moth to the flame, racing towards Li Hui. Only after succeeding did she realize the situation was more complicated; if she wanted to be with her husband, there were heavy obstacles in the way.

    “Naturally, I will hide from heaven and earth for the next three hundred years. As long as the Demonic Essence World invades and catastrophe strikes, those big-shot Reversed Demons will surely have little time to concern themselves with us,” Li Hui replied casually. In truth, this would not be easy; any small misstep would lead to complete failure.

    “I…” Ouyang Xiao Yi’s eyes filled with tears, not wanting to become a burden to her husband.

    “Foolish girl, what are you thinking? It’s just three hundred years; it’ll pass in a blink! Plus, it will help you restore your divine soul,” Li Hui calculated with the Heart Talisman Dao Fruit, though he was nowhere near as skilled as Du Miaochan in innate techniques. However, he held the advantage of foresight, three hundred years ahead. As long as he pretended to have an intense struggle with Ouyang Xiao Yi, those old fellows would likely watch without interference.

    Li Hui raised his hand, releasing the green lotus reward from the Extreme Huan Continent, sending one flower after another into Ouyang Xiao Yi’s forehead, saying, “These green lotuses can protect you from the ravages of the past. If any earth-level Reversed Demon attempts to manipulate time, they cannot erase the past you.”

    Ouyang Xiao Yi quickly replied, “These green lotuses are extraordinarily precious, each one significant; you need them for protection too, husband.”

    “There’s no time! Though you reincarnated, you did not escape the realm of Reversed Demons. After becoming Bai Xiaolu, you still practiced the Reversed Demon techniques until now. If so, you should cultivate the love demon’s Six Paths until completion, follow the original historical trajectory, and then reincarnate again into the lives of Mu Qianyun, Ji Mengxue, and Yang Jiuzhen.”

    “Is that what you mean, husband?” Ouyang Xiao Yi’s eyes brightened as she praised, “Alright, I should take this path; you want me to cultivate the Six Paths Legal Form.”

    Li Hui nodded, “Exactly. It’s the Six Paths Legal Form, allowing Bai Xiaolu to walk the path of raw love, Ji Mengxue to tread the Extreme Love Path and the Heartless Path, Mu Qianyun the path of friendship, and finally absorb the intent of the Reversed Demons to achieve the love demon path. Ultimately, perfecting Yang Jiuzhen’s true love path, we can be together. Perhaps this is the original historical trajectory, which I merely concealed the truth of!”

    Ouyang Xiao Yi leaped into Li Hui’s embrace, proclaiming, “I trust you, even death doesn’t matter.”

    “Boom…” Li Hui sped up and crashed into a deep well, which appeared insignificant from the outside but was indeed the Yuan Transformation Well of the Extreme Huan Continent.

    Forces surged from all directions, wanting to eliminate Li Hui at the first opportunity.

    Li Hui shouted, “I vow an oath, to imprison myself in the Extreme Huan Continent for three hundred years until the heaven and earth are overturned. During this time, I will delve into the well to suppress the Departed Immortals, only seeking protection for my partner to help her restore her divine soul and reincarnate once more.”

    “Boom, boom, boom…” The thoughts within the well fluttered back and forth, as though engaged in a heated discussion.
