Chapter 741: A Fox Exploits a Tiger's Might

A giant dragon slowly raised its head.

This head was the size of a mountain, and its slight shift caused the world to quake.

The azure dragon whiskers swayed in the wind like giant banners.

Its eyes opened, and they exuded a grandiose pressure that silently spread over the entire area.

Everyone stopped.

Even Aurora and Tang Jie stopped fighting.

In front of a majestic existence like the Azure Dragon, all existences were like ants, all fights like child's play.

Only the Azure Dragon's soul within Lin Xin continued to howl, "My body! That's my body!!!"

But no matter how he howled, there was no getting back what he had lost.

Aurora and Iron Blood trembled as they looked at the Azure Dragon. f reenovelkiss.com

Failed!

In the end, they had failed!

They had failed to get the Azure Dragon's soul back into his body, and that woman had taken it instead. Aurora was well aware of the consequences for this.

From the moment the Azure Dragon appeared, this battle was going to end in one side getting wiped out.

There was no point in trying to escape.

In front of a Supreme True Immortal, any attempts to escape or resist were futile.

Aurora and Iron Blood turned pale with sorrow and despair.

Sure enough, the dragon opened its mouth, and Lin Xin spoke in a vigorous voice that resounded through the world.

"This this is my new body. Heavens, I'm a dragon"

And then she began to cry.

For such a majestic voice to speak in such a scared and uneasy tone was truly bizarre.

This was particularly so for that sobbing at the end. It left everyone feeling dumbfounded.

How could one even describe what was going on here?

When everyone was fighting over this dragon body, the only beneficiary seemed to be unhappy.

But Tang Jie understood Lin Xin.

It wasn't that the Azure Dragon's body was bad. It was just that this shift was too huge, too difficult to adapt to.

In the end, it was like giving someone a choice between being a human and being a monstrously powerful fiend.

Many people might choose to become a fiend, but there would definitely be many who chose to be human.

No matter what sort of lifeform it was, because they had grown up in that sort of form, it was one they were most used to, most accustomed to, and perhaps even most fond of and unwilling to leave.

Thus, in every circumstance, abandoning the human form was an immense price to pay.

Lin Xin was weeping over this price.

Understanding this, Tang Jie coughed blood and soothed, "I'm sorry that I did this without your agreement. You were fatally wounded by Reverend Seer, and this was the only way to save you."

Fresh from that intense battle, his original body was bleeding all over the place and seemed to be in a terrible state. As for the avatar, it had fainted from consuming too much of its Divine Soul and was currently being watched by Yiyi.

With nothing to sustain it, the Infinite Palace fell apart.

Even so, he still focused on consoling Lin Xin.

"I know," Lin Xin replied from within the Azure Dragon's body. "Although I wasn't able to speak, I saw everything that happened. Thank you, Tang Jie. Without you, I would already be dead."

Such tender words spoken with such a deep and majestic voice gave everyone goosebumps.

The new Azure Dragon might become one of the most simultaneously powerful, timid, and incomprehensible existences of the Great Stellar Chiliocosm.

Tang Jie replied, "Actually, there's no need to be too sad. Supreme True Immortals possess immense powers. If you want, you can transform yourself into a human."

"Mm," Lin Xin simply replied, and then she fell silent, quietly lying there.

The world fell quiet.

Only the old Azure Dragon was still howling. "If you don't want this body, then give it back to me!"

As he roared, the birthmark began to fade. But this wasn't because his Divine Soul was about to break free. It was because his soul was merging with Lin Xin's body.

From now on, Lin Xin would be the Azure Dragon, and the Azure Dragon would be Lin Xin.

Lin Xin looked at her former body with a hint of reluctance in those dragon eyes. "Although I have left my old body, I am unwilling to abandon it. Azure Dragon, since you've gained my old body, take good care of it."

She raised a dragon claw and flicked a drop of blood at her old body. 𝙛𝙧𝒆𝒆𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝒆𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝓶

While it was only a drop, it was as large as a wash basin. It fell onto that hole in her body and began to repair this fatal wound. Her old body was currently in a state like Hong Yuan's had been, the body having perished but the soul still lingering. With the Divine Soul maintaining the body, it could come back to life so long as the injuries were healed. As the former body had never cultivated before, it was very difficult to heal, but the dragon blood of a Supreme True Immortal could heal even the most serious of injuries.

The old Azure Dragon bellowed, "My blood! You would dare use my precious blood to save this mortal body!"

"It's now my blood and your body," Lin Xin coldly said. From her tone, one could tell that she was rapidly adapting to the new body, and new power came with this new status. "If you're sure that you don't need it, I can destroy it!"

"With just you, you think"

"Raaa!" A roar drowned out the old dragon's voice.

After roaring, Lin Xin said, "Tang Jie, help me take good care of this body."

"As the Sacred Azure Dragon commands," Tang Jie replied, and he summoned Lin Xin's former body to his side. This action was very taxing for him, causing all of his wounds to open, but thankfully, nobody tried to stop him.

The old dragon continued to shout as he struggled. "Release me! That bitch will never"

Before he could finish, Tang Jie had Yiyi stuff a clod of dirt into the dragon's mouth so that he could no longer speak.

Lin Xin cast her gaze at the assembled fiends and humans.

All that her gaze fell upon shivered.

This invisible pressure was so powerful and heavy that they couldn't even raise their heads.

Lin Xin said, "These fiends were helping the old dragon against you, almost stopping me from being reborn"

The fiends felt their hearts turn cold.

Lin Xin went on, "Tang Jie, how do you want to deal with them?"

Tang Jie looked at Lin Xin and considered her question. "Aurora tried to stop you from succeeding, so he deserves ten thousand deaths, but the other fiends were being coerced by Aurora, so they can be forgiven. If Aurora is willing to commit suicide, I recommend that you consider letting the other fiends off."

What?

Everyone was stunned by these words.

Liu Zongchang shouted, "Tang Jie, what are you thinking? This is the best opportunity to eliminate the fiends, so why are you letting them go?"

Tang Jie indifferently said, "I've been ruling in fiend territory for many years, so I've established much affection toward the fiends. And if there are no more fiends, humans will find it hard to prosper. Giving the fiends a way out is also giving the humans a way out. A country without an enemy is destined to perish. Without pressure from the fiends, it will be difficult to keep human cultivators energized. In short, I will not let the fiends perish here."

Lin Xin nodded. "If that is your will, then so be it."

These words made all the fiends sigh in relief and look toward Aurora. Even the Iron Blood Fiend Emperor looked over to him.

"Father!" Lan Ling paled.

Aurora waved his hand, ordering his daughter to be silent. Looking at Tang Jie, he said, "Are you being sincere?"

Tang Jie casually replied, "In front of the Sacred Azure Dragon, do I need to deceive you?"

"Mm! Mm!" The old dragon struggled as she tried to speak, so Tang Jie struck her in the back of the head and knocked her out.

Looking up at the divine body of the Azure Dragon, Aurora sighed, "If that's the case, then this old man doesn't need you to swear a Heavenly Dao Oath. Just as you say, you have no need to trick me. Tang Jie, please give the fiends a path to survive!"

"FATHER!!!" Lan Ling dropped to her knees and wailed.

Aurora wanly smiled. "Since we failed, we have to accept the fate of the defeated. To have only me die is already the best ending."

The two Auroras merged together and transformed into a rainbow peacock that crowed at the sky.

The peacock began to exude a brilliant divine light while fiercely trembling.

Seeing this, all the fiends dropped to their knees and shouted, "Your Majesty!"

Lan Ling was on the verge of fainting from her weeping.

"Tang Jie, I've put all of my life force into my pellet. I know that this is what you want. Now, everything I have is yours. I hope that you won't go back on your words!"

The peacock exploded in one last blinding burst, a shockwave sweeping through the world.

As the winds died down, the rainbow peacock's corpse slowly floated down, falling into Tang Jie's hand.

As Aurora had committed suicide, not only had he not used the energy of his fiend pellet, he had also put all of his energy into it. As a result, this was the perfectly intact body of a Fiend Emperor, the fiend pellet, flesh, and Divine Soul all preserved in their ideal state.

This was for fear that Tang Jie might go back on his word.

Now, Tang Jie had collected four of the Five Fiend Emperors' corpses. All he was missing was the Iron Blood Fiend Emperor.

All the fiends nervously looked at the Iron Blood Fiend Emperor.

All of their lives depended on a single word from Tang Jie.

Tang Jie said, "I want to take a look at your saber."

The Iron Blood Fiend Emperor grunted and reluctantly threw over his Ironblood Saber.

As Tang Jie grabbed it, he immediately felt an immense, almost suffocating, will coming from it.

Taking in a deep breath, Tang Jie exclaimed, "A good saber!"

Iron Blood paled, but Tang Jie added, "Don't worry. I don't want your saber. I just want to borrow it for a hundred days to temper my Origin Heart."

Iron Blood exhaled in relief. "Okay! When you don't need it anymore, just throw the saber away. The saber will fly back to me on its own."

"If that's the case, what are you all still standing around for? Hurry and go already!"

The fiends immediately fled as if they had been issued a general amnesty.

Lin Xin gave them no trouble, simply floating in the air and watching them leave.

Now that the fiends were gone, everyone else had no desire to linger much longer. Feng Wuxiang and Liu Zongchang came over to congratulate Lin Xin and Tang Jie.

Although they regretted the fact that Tang Jie had let the fiends go, they didn't dare to complain too much in this situation.

After exchanging pleasantries, they asked if Tang Jie planned to leave as well. When they learned that Tang Jie was planning to cultivate here, they all bid their farewells and left.

To be honest, under the Azure Dragon's pressure, nobody dared to stay for too long. They didn't even touch the fiend corpses, leaving them all for Tang Jie.

Shentu Yuan's group of four was the last to leave.

As Tang Jie's best friend in the Verdant Cloud Domain, Shentu Yuan bluntly asked, "What were you thinking, letting all those fiends go? After all, they were still valuable materials."

Tang Jie smiled. "I wanted to keep them, but the problem is that I can't."

"'You can't'? The Sacred Azure Dragon could easily kill them all, no?" Ye Xiao said.

Tang Jie sighed. "If she really could use her power, then she naturally would. But what if she couldn't?"

What?

All four of them were stunned.

They looked at the Azure Dragon in the distance and saw fatigue and exhaustion appearing on her visage.

Now that everyone was gone, Lin Xin stopped hiding her fatigue.

Ice Phoenix said in trembling realization, "You mean, she she can't control"

Tang Jie replied in a breezy tone.

"How could the soul of an ordinary person control a Supreme True Immortal? Being able to speak and move a claw was already an ordeal for her."
