Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

A woman of stunning beauty, dressed in cyan, tall with a fair complexion as white as jade, a melon-seed face, willow eyebrows, almond eyes, peach cheeks, and cherry lips, sat on a throne. Her brows slightly furrowed as she asked, "What if Zhao Yu attacks?"

The Red Ridge Jiao King confidently smiled and said, "Beautiful Jiao King, rest assured! This is the deep sea. If human cultivators enter the sea, they can't exert even half of their capabilities. How could he dare to be reckless in the Jiao Divine Palace?

Although our palace's grand formation isn't comparable to the human's mountain defense formation, it is still a Fourth Order Low Grade Myriad Waves Oceanic Grand Formation. If Zhao Yu dares to come, we will ensure he has no grave to be buried in!"

Suddenly, vast swathes of black Ghost Fog surged throughout the great hall, sweeping toward the three great Jiao Kings.

"This is Ghost Fog! What's happening? Evil Ghosts? How can there be Evil Ghosts here?"

The Yellow Jiao King's face drastically changed as he immediately conjured a magical treasure made from a White Jade Evil-Subduing Rhinoceros Horn, sending streaks of Evil-Dispelling Light toward the Ghost Fog, purifying the dark mist.

"Fellow Daoists of the Jiao Divine Palace! I am Zhao Yu. Are you planning to surrender or die here?"

Zhao Yu stepped boldly into the palace, followed by the White Ghost Emperor, Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor, White Jiao King, and Golden Spirit True Lord, four powerful beings.

The Beautiful Jiao King's pretty face changed color as she asked, "How did you get in?"

The White Jiao King advised, "Beautiful Jiao King, Yellow Jiao King, Red Ridge Jiao King, you three should surrender! As long as you three submit to our lord together with me, the Jiao Divine Palace can still be managed by the four of us."

The Red Ridge Jiao King sneered, "White Jiao King, you traitor, still have the face to come back? As a noble member of the Jiao Dragon race, you actually serve as a dog for the humans. You disgrace our Jiao Dragon race!"

The White Jiao King indifferently said, "A wise man submits to circumstances! Our lord is brilliant and valiant, outstandingly gifted, and will surely advance to Divinity Transformation, perhaps even ascend to the Spirit Realm. It's my honor to follow our lord!"

"Retreat!"

The Yellow Jiao King shouted fiercely, directly using the Jiao Dragon Water Escape Technique, transforming into a swift current, fleeing toward the distance.

Although the Jiao Dragon race is far stronger in the sea than on land, the arrival of Zhao Yu and his party of five, including the traitorous White Jiao King, gave the three great Jiao Kings an ominous premonition.

"Thinking of escaping? Everyone stay right here!"

Zhao Yu directly invoked a prohibitive jade token of the Jiao Divine Palace, and within the palace, numerous nodes of Spiritual Power shone brightly, countless Spiritual Lights glittered, forming a massive Barrier enveloping the Jiao Divine Palace.

A huge Defense Barrier also appeared inside the Wanxi Hall. The Yellow Jiao King, bumping into the blue Defense Barrier, was knocked back, revealing himself.

The Yellow Jiao King, in disbelief, exclaimed, "How can you control our Jiao Divine Palace's protective grand formation?"

A gust of dark ghost wind blew, and like a specter, the White Ghost Emperor suddenly appeared behind the Yellow Jiao King and struck his head with a punch, piercing it with Ghost Horn and shattering it in one strike.

The headless body of the Yellow Jiao King heavily fell to the ground, reverted to its true form, and twitched continuously.

Both the Beautiful Jiao King and the Red Ridge Jiao King crashed into the Barrier and were bounced back, catching a chilling sight of the Yellow Jiao King's headless corpse.

The Golden Spirit True Lord directly controlled the Sword Array, sweeping razor-sharp Sword Threads toward the Beautiful Jiao King.

The White Jiao King also attacked the Beautiful Jiao King.

The Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor's figure flickered, his body emitting a terrifying corpse aura, as he punched toward the Red Ridge Jiao King.

Zhao Yu activated the Mountain Divine Light protection and then conjured the Mountain Seal, sending streaks of Earth Magnetism Mystical Light toward the Beautiful Jiao King and Red Ridge Jiao King.

King Li Jiao and King Chi Ridge suddenly felt their bodies sink.

King Li Jiao immediately brought out a Spiritual Shield, and wielded a long spear to fend off the attacks of True Lord Jin Ling and King Bai Jiao.

"Die, monster!"

However, King Chi Ridge was ferociously unmatched, and he violently hammered his claw towards the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor. Beastly creatures are known for their strong physicality, and King Chi Ridge, being a Jiao dragon, had a physique far surpassing that of other beastly creatures of the same order.

Boom!!

With a terrifying blast, King Chi Ridge was struck by the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor and violently slammed into a nearby Barrier. His right claw twisted, and the dreadful corpse Qi invaded it, rendering it immobile.

King Chi Ridge, with a face of shock, exclaimed, "What kind of monster is this? How can there be such a terrifying corpse demon?"

A dark Ghost Wind blew past, and the White Ghost Emperor appeared like a phantom behind King Chi Ridge, striking his head with a punch. A pitch-black column of light instantly shattered King Chi Ridge's skull.

King Chi Ridge's headless body fell to the ground, struggling incessantly.

King Bai Jiao persuaded, "King Li Jiao, surrender! If you continue to resist, you only have death ahead!"

"Traitor! Go die!!"

A cold light flashed in King Li Jiao's eyes. Mysterious Curse Seals emerged on his massive dragon body. Opening his mouth, he spat out a jet-black blood arrow, which shot straight at King Bai Jiao like a meteor.

King Bai Jiao, well-prepared, promptly wielded a white Spiritual Shield in front of him.

The jet-black blood arrow, containing an attack from King Li Jiao, burning the essence of his life, had immense power. Even a late Nascent Soul stage grand cultivator would be severely injured if they lacked the corresponding Divine Skills.

The white Spiritual Shield was instantly shattered by the blood arrow, which then continued its course towards King Bai Jiao.

A blood-colored shield reappeared, blocking the blood arrow.

The blood arrow pierced the blood-colored shield and then another Xuan Turtle Spiritual Shield appeared in front of it.

The blood arrow smashed the Xuan Turtle Spiritual Shield upon impact and then dissipated.

King Li Jiao glared hatefully at King Bai Jiao, plummeted to the ground, and became a corpse, devoid of all life.

King Bai Jiao stood before King Li Jiao's body and solemnly sighed, "Spirit-Destroying Blood Arrow! I didn't expect you to have mastered this Divine Skill, but it truly suits your character!"

With the death of the three major Jiao Kings, the entire Jiao Divine Palace fell under the control of Zhao Yu.

Although there were many other Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation directly descended within the Jiao Divine Palace, they suffered heavy casualties under the assault of King Bai Jiao and Zhao Yu and other Fourth-Order powerhouses, and were all slaughtered by King Bai Jiao's forces.

Since the Myriad Waves Oceanic Grand Formation was controlled by Zhao Yu, the entire Jiao Divine Palace was effectively sealed, leaving no escape for the underlings of other transforming Great Demons.

In a hidden cavern at the very depths of the Jiao Divine Palace headquarters, there lay a pool resembling blood jade, emitting a unique fragrance from a thin layer of Spirit Blood within it.

Zhao Yu arrived at this cavern and, looking at the blood pool, a smile flickered across his eyes: "This blood pool is the greatest treasure of the Jiao Divine Palace."
