The Taichi snake has Dragon bloodline, and the concentration of the bloodline is not low. This is also the reason why Deng Chanyu believes that among the "Four Sacred Beasts of Heaven", the Dragon occupies a half of the seats and has a much higher status than the Phoenix and Unicorn.
What about the divine turtle? According to the information Deng Chanyu has learned from numerous ancient celebrities such as Nuwa and Zhenyuanzi, most of the time, it is the divine turtle that takes the lead in controlling this body of the Vermilion Bird. The heavens have specifically arranged the "Four Sacred Beasts of Heaven" to guard the four directions. The Vermilion Bird of the North, as an attendant to Shengshenjun, relies heavily on water elements. In the North, water corresponds to fire in the South. The North is weighty, while the South is passionate. A snake is anything but heavy and weighty; as the leading force, it must be the divine turtle.
However, the relationship between the divine turtle, Yunchao, and Deng Chanyu is not good.
There is no connection between the two sides, and on the contrary, they have some grudges with the tortoise clan.
It seems that whether it's the snake swallowing the turtle or the turtle swallowing the snake, neither has anything to do with them. In reality, it really can't be counted that way.
If the divine turtle is the one controlling the body of the Vermilion Bird, then the characteristics of the divine turtle have always been to be weighty. The Vermilion Bird would continue to follow its previous principle, which is to sit still and remain motionless in the North, like a mountain. If the dragon replaces the turtle as the dominant force, everything would change, becoming more aggressive, and even threatening the current situation of the vast emptiness.
Phoenix' domain in heaven is the North, and in the future, after planning to become the Lord of Ziwēi Star Chamber in the middle of heaven, she will still control the northern region. This is also an important reason why she conflicts with Niulai Xianweng, who manages the southern region. The way of heaven lets you confront each other, you have to do it.
The tribes of monsters protected by Nuwa also reside in the North Sea. Once there is a significant change in the northern situation, Deng Chanyu will undoubtedly be drawn into it.
To speak more formally, the appearance of the sacred position is unknown when the time comes. In this crucial moment, stability always takes precedence over everything for those with ambitions for a sacred position.
It's best to prevent the dragon snake from devouring the divine turtle and altering the current situation in the North.
Yun Xiao would occasionally chop two blades at the dragon snake, and later went to great lengths to try and awaken the sleeping divine turtle.
Why should you sleep when others want to eat you?
Physarum is cunning. As a water leech with shallow roots, it has become a famous demon insect in the vast emptiness. It also possesses sufficient combat wisdom.
Its flight path is elusive, shifting from east to west, sometimes coordinating with the dragon snake to launch fierce attacks. Yun Xiao is overwhelmed, struggling to cope with the attacks while also defending against the toxic mist, looking extremely disheveled.
Fortunately, Physarum and the dragon snake are not on the same side. Physarum originally gained great evolution by swallowing the blood of the dragon snake, and this time entering the small world of the Ku Peng was also to swallow those descendants of the dragon snake. It was defeated by Yun Xiao and surrendered under pressure, but it would like to eat Yun Xiao and the dragon snake together if given an opportunity.
Yun Xiao slashed out a sword, and the dragon snake roared in anguish as large chunks of flesh were cut off by the sword light of Taixia, its scales, exceptionally strong, appeared to be nonexistent in front of the sword light.
The dragon snake, without legs but capable of flight, is also a powerful being who can control the clouds and mists. His figure hides in the mist, waiting for the right moment before darting out, striking Yun Xiao's forehead with his tail. Meanwhile, Physarum also emerges from the shadows and approaches silently, opening his blood-red mouth to bite at Yun Xiao's nape from behind.
"Finally, you're caught!" Yun Xiao summons a magical mirror with both yin and yang colors. The mirror hovers above the attack path of the dragon snake's tail. With one strike, the mirror shatters into pieces, and Yun Xiao's body is pushed backward by a powerful force, flying over a hundred meters.
Yun Xiao spins in the air, her sword tip swiftly outlining, and the inner great sun of Taixia Star Chamber turns into twelve brilliant suns. A myriad of light beams cascade down, and she flips her wrist, setting up a sword array with twelve light columns with just a flick of her wrist and a movement.
Seeing the situation turn dire, Physarum immediately resorts to sacrificing its tail for survival. It spits out Yun Zhongzi's Water Spark Basket, which is used for collecting medicine on the surface but actually contains a separate world within. At this moment, Physarum lifts the basket, and a large number of venomous insects and miasma spread out within the sword array.
Yun Xiao controls the sword array to kill enemies, and within three breaths, billions of venomous insects are wiped out. The miasma is also shattered by the sword light. She harbors a deep hatred for Yun Zhongzi, and the Taixia Star Chamber emits brilliant red light from above. In one stroke, it splits the Water Spark Basket completely, destroying this piece of high-quality Preheaven treasure beyond repair.
The red sword light is still unyielding, and the golden flame contains a fierce wind, which in turn encapsulates lightning. At the deepest point of the thunderstorm, there is Yun Xiao's own sword path intent.
Physarum, a demon insect, possesses an astonishing spiritual sensitivity. Even if it fails to discern the profound mystery of Yun Xiao's sword strike, it can still feel the overwhelming killing intent within. Its long snake tongue flicks rapidly in and out, quickly calculating that all its evasion directions are blocked by this sword stroke. Physarum raises its head, revealing its pallid underbelly, and emits a sorrowful cry. Its abdomen opens one pair of eyes after another, as if to summon forth even more power.
There are ten pairs of brown vertical pupils, filled with resentment. The countless spirits that were drained to death by Physarum and turned to stone have all been resurrected in these vertical pupils. Relying on the resentment gathered from billions of sentient beings, it blocked Yun Xiao's sword light for an instant.
The resentment of the living beings is a double-edged sword. While blocking the sword light, Physarum's body suddenly appears countless bloodstains, as if there were tens of thousands of people tearing apart its body from the inside out. Its five-colored feathers and black scales are scattered everywhere.
Physarum is injured but manages to break free from Yun Xiao's sword array thanks to the brief block it created.
Seeing Yun Xiao's formidable strength, it stops not to pause and flies panic-stricken towards the entrance of the cave, preparing to escape from this battlefield.
The girl Yun Xiao, who had been pretending to be dead on the ground, finally finds an opportunity. As Physarum flew overhead, she stood up and raised the Nanming Lihuo Jian, pointing its tip at the head of Physarum.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The many eyes in Physarum's abdomen were already closed, and the two eyes on its head tried to find a way out of the toxic fog. It completely didn't expect that Yun Xiao, the girl, still had mobility. It felt the danger and, instinctively, flapped its three wings with all its might. At the critical moment, it raised its head and upper body.
Deng Chanyu did not participate in this battle. Yun Xiao and her good shade worked together perfectly, with no need for her interference at all.
At this time, within Yun Xiao's good shade, Deng Chanyu could see everything clearly.
The girl Yun Xiao cleverly held up the Nanming Lihuo Jian, ignoring the pink mist and smoke rising from Physarum's flight. Her eyes filled with determination, she thrust her sword into Physarum's abdomen and, using the force of its own forward flight, completely ripped open the demon insect.
Before the venom and poisonous blood from Physarum could spread, Yun Xiao shot out her sword light and chased after it. She slashed down with one sword, severing Physarum's head. Worried that this alone wouldn't kill it, she disregarded the consumption of her power and the toxins on her body. She slashed with over a dozen strokes in quick succession, completely reducing Physarum to minced meat. Her head was hacked into numerous pieces.
With a tremendous roar, most of the bones and muscles were lost, leaving only a thin layer of skin and a little flesh. The remains of Physarum, like a creature with its sinews stripped away, landed on the ground, brown and emitting a pungent smell. This is when the toxic blood from the abdomen of the carcass slowly spread out.
