The "Eastern Grand Duke" fumed in anger: "Eloquent and insincere, I will teach you a lesson and show you what it means to know respect!"
He waved his dragon-shaped staff straight down towards Deng ChanYu's forehead.
And then a scene that left the skygod Horace gaping in amazement occurred. Deng ChanYu seemed to have no idea of the important significance of the dragon-shaped staff, and she showed no respect at all. She grabbed the staff with her hand, her palm gripping the area below the staff head for three inches, and pulled it back forcefully in a very rough manner.
The reaction of the "Eastern Grand Duke" was also puzzling, as Deng ChanYu's speed was not fast at all, but he failed to avoid her, and the strength was surprisingly weak. After only struggling twice, the dragon-shaped staff changed hands.
Deng ChanYu, with a kick that was neither particularly fast in terms of force nor speed, knocked over the "Eastern Grand Duke." After that, she held the staff with both hands and struck him fiercely on his back.
This time, she even used the divine scripture of "Power" from the "God of Pu Nu," extracting the surrounding spiritual energy in an instant and converting it into the purest and most fundamental force. A golden dragon-shaped shadow appeared at the top of the dragon-shaped staff. It was slightly dissatisfied with this attack, as its origin was also taken away. But at this time, it knew that it couldn't falter, so it immediately cooperated with Deng ChanYu and increased the power of the attack to twelve times its original level.
A strike that shatters stones and amazes the heavens!
No frills, no colorful lights, only power.
In these three years, Deng ChanYu has picked up the QianJiuXuanGong she was practicing before and started to cultivate it again. She used the Tao Fruit at the late DaLuo level to refine her body, making great progress. She feels that her strength has increased by more than a hundred percent compared to three years ago, but this is still not enough.
The "Power" divine script seems to hold a true meaning that she has yet to uncover. As before, the moment the script appeared, it drained all of her power.
A simple, unadorned strike locked down all of "Eastern Grand Duke"'s evasion directions.
A muffled "thud" sound echoed as "Eastern Grand Duke" was knocked sideways, smashing a hole through the wall between the main and side halls of JinZhang Hall. Numerous luxurious decorations were shattered by the shock, and the magnificent palace instantly turned into a ruin.
Deng ChanYu extracted strength from her physical body once again. The three years of refining her physique had indeed paid off, and in just three breaths, she recovered a portion of her physical strength.
She slightly furrowed her brow, though this strike had landed, the effect was not good. It felt like she was using a sledgehammer to hit a tire, and the certain resilience of the impact gave her a very uncomfortable sensation.
"Trying to escape? Today is your day to die!"
Her posture of holding the dragon-shaped staff upside down was far from what an elderly person should look like; it was more like she was carrying a great axe.
She seemed to also feel that this was very awkward, for this weapon was not meant to be used this way! It's no wonder that the Primeval Supreme God disapproved. The dragon-shaped staff is indeed not suitable for the youth and middle-aged people, so she threw it casually, making it hover in the semi-air of the main hall. She then took out XuanTao Jian and ferociously rushed towards the side hall.
Horace remained expressionless, gazing at the dragon-shaped staff without a word.
Deng ChanYu was too brave, and if he were in her place, he would never dare to do something like that.
This "Eastern Grand Duke" may have made a mistake due to poor eyesight or other reasons.
However, he saw the dragon-shaped staff incredibly clearly, as it was an object of HongJun's, and there was no way he could be wrong.
Deng ChanYu took the dragon-shaped staff without any hesitation, just as she said. What is your reliance on? NuWa?
He began to recall the conversation between Deng ChanYu and the "Eastern Grand Duke" before, which seemed to mention Pu Nu. Were you present when Pu Nu opened the heavens? Are you also a chaotic demon who has been reborn?
He died once during the battle to open the heavens, and his true spirit was taken by the Feng Tribe. He fought and died again in the Feng Tribe. This time, he was reborn into the human race, having lived three lives in total?
This explanation makes much more sense now, which explains why she has such deep roots!
Horace had previously thought that Deng ChanYu's rate of cultivation was incredibly fast, so fast as to be unimaginable. Her treatment of many sages, including Hongjun, was not overly constrained. That was far beyond what could be explained by her identity as a sage's disciple. Now, he believes he has finally found the answer.
Deng ChanYu is completely unaware of his random thoughts and doesn't care.
Since she absorbed the Hu Hong Zi Qi, she knew that her position in HongJun's heart had improved significantly.
With her status elevated, Hongjun's tolerance towards her also increased. Matters of little importance are not something he would take notice of.
Even if it's taking the dragon-shaped staff from a chaotic demon, which is clearly a display of merits, even if it's slightly excessive, it can still be tolerated.
Her speed was faster than the "Eastern Grand Duke" who was flying backwards. The XuanTao Jian emitted a thick atmosphere of spiritual energy related to water, and before the long spear was slashed, the oppressive feeling akin to a sea tide had already left all the little maidens at the side hall who were preparing to dance at the main hall gaped in amazement.
Realizing that his attempt to conceal his identity was futile, the "Eastern Grand Duke"'s body twisted and deformed rapidly. The one soul and two spirits of the true Eastern Grand Duke struggled for a moment upon regaining their freedom, but for a remnant soul, the gap was just too great against a chaotic demon who was on par with a sage.
Even the slightest delay couldn't be achieved, and the residual soul was suppressed almost instantly. A large amount of misty gray fog began to pour out from the "Eastern Grand Duke"'s body. The JinZhang Hall soon became enveloped in a thick fog, and within it, one could occasionally hear the sound of claws tearing through skin and some sharp fangs gnashing at flesh.
The initial screams and cries of the little maidens could no longer be heard.
Deng ChanYu snorted in disdain. "After so many years, there's been no innovation at all, it's a shame of the chaotic demons."
The chaotic demons are not familiar with the Tao laws of the Hundred Realms, so among the chaos demons in the Three Thousand Dao, only one can become familiar with one Dao. Those with higher cultivation can explore two or three, which is their limit. Suddenly bringing them to a "big city," seeing a "colorful" world, they would be immediately dazzled and not know what to do or how to do it.
Many times, they can only use some instincts as their means of attack.
The current mist is one of their means, many chaotic demons who faced Pu Gu have used this method before. While watching Pu Gu's various ways of cutting people, Deng ChanYu also mastered several ways to break through the chaotic mist.
"I said, let there be light!"
She used the special skill of speaking and the law following, then quickly traced her fingers to write out a character of the divine script for "fire." She had known how to write this character before, and now, following Pu Gu's method, slightly altering the divine script, it transformed into the character for "light."
This is her enhanced version of speaking and the law following.
First, the moonlight of the TaiYin Star fell down, followed by the Sun Star, Mercury, and Venus. In a chain reaction, all the stars in the sky shone according to her command and fell onto TianJing. The last star was ZiWei Star.
The primeval world has three hundred and sixty-five main stars and fourteen thousand eight hundred subordinate stars. At this moment, each star emitted a ray of light, with more than ten thousand beams of light converging together and striking the center area of the mist.
"You idiot," Deng ChanYu brandished the XuanTao Jian and drove it out, splitting the mist completely. The true appearance of the "Eastern Grand Duke" was revealed.
