After being tormented by Xiao Long for the time it takes to burn a stick of inse, Liao Huoyun finally reached his breaking point...

  "Ugh!"

  He spat out a blood arrow that stretched dozens of meters and finally colpsed to the ground, his energy severely depleted.

  At this moment, Liao Huoyun's hair was disheveled, and his clothes were tattered, no longer resembling the master of a sect.

  "Already done? Sigh! How unsatisfying!"

  Xiao Long shook his head helplessly. It took 128 soul needle piergs before dissipating. The owner of this soul imprint had det endurance, probably an Innate Expert, likely the Fire Cloud Sect Master.

  I wonder what he's thinking now, would he be driven mad with rage?

  Liao Huoyun indeed looked like a madman now, surrounded by a group of people who were too scared to speak first.

  Looking around the Fire Cloud Hall, it was already in ruins.

  "Sect Master, what just happened?" Xue Wuqing dared to ask.

  Liao Huoyu out a bitter ugh and said dejectedly, "The soul imprint seed is gone."

  Everyone gasped, immediately uanding why the Sect Master went mad earlier. It turned out he was being tormehrough the soul imprint seed!

  Finding the soul imprint seed itself was incredible, indig the oppo's soul power was at least at the Innate level. To torment Liao Huoyun through the soul imprint seed, only special soul teiques could achieve that.

  This meant they had provoked a formidable rogue cultivator, the most troublesome kind. Their open strength might not be impressive, but their underharicks were endless, especially adept at soul teiques.

  The pain on the soul level is the hardest to endure, no wohe Sect Master ended up like that.

  Liao Huoyun waved his hand: "Pass the order, in a month, lead everyoo the outskirts of Qingyang Town, and start clearing the nd!"

  "What!"

  "Clearing the nd?"

  A fierce look fshed in Liao Huoyun's eyes: "Who dares to disobey! Death!"

  Everyone uood that their Sect Master was truly enraged!

  Clearing the a massive human atta the forests where demos resided, exterminating all the demos along the way, akin to a massacre.

  The downside was that it could easily trigger a beast tide!

  A small beast tide was manageable for an ordinary sect, but a rge one could be a catastrophic disaster for the eianfeng Kingdom.

  The Fire Cloud Sect Master's decision clearly showed he was furious to the extreme, nearly losing his mind. No one dared to voiy objes, fearing bad luck.

  "This person must be a powerful beast tamer with strong soul power, usually hiding in the demo mountains to trais. Once we find his ir, I will kill him!"

  "Send a message to Qin Feng, the Beast Tami Master. I will personally visit in a while. Their help in clearing the nd will make things much easier," Liao Huoyun said solemnly.

  "Yes!"

  The Beast Tami, one of the four major sects in Tianfeng Kingdom, was a leader among oar sects. Sect Master Qin Feng was not only an Innate Expert but also a powerful beast tamer. His mount was a genuine Demon King, the Blood Wolf King.

  With the Blood Wolf King holding the lihe demos' momentum would be suppressed, makiermination much easier. Most importantly, the Blood Wolf King would remember the st left by the demos, ensuring the capture of that Bck Spine Snake and its master!

  Xiao Long was unaware that his as would lead to such sequences. Even if he knew, he would just ugh and curse him as an idiot.

  "That ant will surely e for revenge, but with his soul injured, it will take at least a month to recover. Wheime es, I'll be ready to py along."

  In his past life, as the Burning Heaven Dragon Emperor, Xiao Long had destroyed tless sects. The mere Fire Cloud Sect was nothing to him.

  With the system, who knows what level Xiao Long will rea a month? Right now, his strength is too weak, and he 't unleash his full potential. Once he reaches the Demon General level, he won't fear even the Prenatal Realm.

  At this moment, Da Hei sent a thought: "Boss! The herbs you wanted are almost all collected, except for one, guarded by a monkey. We 't beat it."

  A monkey?

  "Stay there, I'll be right over."

  Xiao Long crawled toward Da Hei's location. After about half an hour, he arrived in a valley where Da Hei and Er Hei were coiled on a rock, with the herbs they collected underh.

  In front of them was a massive three-meter-tall ape, holding a tree, staring at the two snakes.

  "Vajra Ape?"

  Xiao L as ah-rank demo. Da Hei and Er Hei were third-rank demos, but having practiced the Subdue Dragon Art, their bodies emitted a faint dragon aura, making the ape hesitant to approach.

  Ah-rank demo was no challenge for Xiao Long, who had cultivated the Azure Dragon Tome to the sed level. Moreover, with his profound-level movement teique, Fish-Dragon Shifting, it was uain if the ape could even touch him.

  Seeing Xiao Long approach, the two snakes showed excitement in their eyes.

  "Boss, this monkey's cave has many treasures!" Da Hei said eagerly.

  "I went in ond saool of glowing green water. I feel that water help me break through!" Er Hei added.

  Glowing green water?

  Xiao Long thought for a moment, could it be a spiritual spring?

  If it truly iritual spring, that would be a huge gain! For demos, a spiritual spring riceless treasure. Soaking in it could strehe body, se the meridians, and breaking through realms would be as easy as eating and drinking.

  "Roar!" The Vajra Ape saw Xiao Long and roared at him from a distance, pounding its chest in a threatening manner.

  "A beast is just a beast!"

  Xiao Long's figure flickered, turning into a bck arc of lightning, his tail striking the Vajra Ape's waist.

  "Smack!"

  The Vajra Ape howled in pain, reag for Xiao Long, but he was as slippery as an eel, dodging to the ape's feet and striking its kh his tail.

  Xiao Long's strength was on par with ah-rank demo. After the strike, the Vajra Ape staggered ao its knees, swinging the tree in its hand wildly.

  "Boom boom boom boom..."

  In an instant, dust flew, and rocks scattered. Xiao Long, with Fish-Dragon Shifting fully activated, darted around, not even a scale touched.

  "Smack!"

  Aail strike nded on the Vajra Ape's face. Finally enraged, it roared to the sky, its skin turning a faint red, its body seemingly growing a meter taller, its aura surging from ah-rank to a tenth-rank demo level.

  "Berserk mode? This ape actually has the bloodline of the a giant ape tribe," Xiao Long showed a look of i.

  In aimes, the giant ape tribe was one of the four divi races, standing alongside the dragon race. Over the years, they had deed into history.

  Finding a demo with the giant ape tribe's bloodline piqued Xiao Long's i. Such a demo had great potential, very intelligent, and might be of use to him.

  Boom!

  The ape swung its club again, causing the ground to colpse, the entire valley seemed to tremble. Xiao Long quickly darted away.

  In berserk mode, the Vajra Ape's strength surged to a tenth-rank demo. Ape-type demos were naturally strong, its power likely reached the human Qi densing Realm level.

  However, this low-level bloodline berserk mode had a ter. Xiao Long just o seal its seven major acupoints, causing its blood to reverse, and it would colpse on its own.

  "Roar!" The ape charged, and Xiao Long's snake body bent, f a drawn b, then shot out suddenly.

  At the same time, the dragon inner qi from the Azure Dragon Tome was fully unleashed, creating a supreme pressure that enveloped the ape.
