Chapter Fifty-Five: A Drop of Water Burns the Flower
d.But at this moment, the divine soul split itself apart and scattered like a snake, abandoning its attack on the Black-Eyed Star Python. And this manifested flesh of the divine soul fell right into...“To achieve such a level of concealment...Zhongli Yan Wu Ling Neither seem likely. Dou Zhao acts alone, and it's even more improbable. Then could it be the lost Nine Chapters Jade Bi”
Qu Shunhua obviously attached great importance to Yue Chan Master's opinion. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Let's follow them."
Yuezhen stretched out her hand, her wide sleeves falling gently. Her skin had a faint bronze glow.
With a single hand pressed down, a jewel suddenly appeared, suspended in mid-air.
Streams of light dance and swirl, ever expanding outward.
In the sound of clicking and whirring gears, a majestic bird appeared.
His whole body shone with golden radiance, his eyes radiating majesty.

Its feathers were sharp as knives, and when its wings spread out, they spanned over ten feet.
The jewel was set atop her head, its brilliance subdued within, like a fleshy tumor.
This bird let out a low cry, its sound full of sorrow and pain, almost bringing tears to one's eyes.
Although it was lively and realistic, as tangible as a mythical creature come to life. But when the Moon Master stepped onto its back, the soles of his boots made a crisp knocking sound —
It is quite obvious that this is a puppet creation.
The mechanism of the Gāloro at Xi Yue An!
Qū Shùn huā leaped down beside Yuè Zhān shī and said nothing. This Garuda, with a flap of its wings, broke through the sky and chased after it.
Now that they truly had to track down the Qilin ox, and there were unknown people near it, they naturally needed to conserve their strength to deal with a possible battle at any time. They couldn't waste their energy on the journey.
It is very necessary for the appearance of the mechanical Garuda.
The Na Kui Ox drives the thunder and lightning, traveling through the mountains and seas realm. It tramples on ten thousand feet of electric light, thunder roars for thousands of miles, shocking not only one or two people

However, just like Jiang Wang left quickly and hid his whereabouts, waiting for Kui Niu to fly past.
Like Zhong Li Yan Fan without any skill, he confidently chose to approach and "see the commotion".
Then the Qilin was struck by several bolts of lightning from Kui Niu, leaving it covered in soot and dust.
>
Zhongli Yan regained his composure and pursued angrily.
Qu Shunhua and Yue Chan Master, it was only after confirming the whereabouts of the lost Nine Chapters Jade Disc that they decided to investigate further.
Different people have different personalities and make different choices. But this time, coincidentally, they all began to chase the tail of the qilin ox.
Often, people's choices are determined by their personalities.
This is a floating mountain covered in gems.
>
On the mountain path, a man stood with his hands behind his back.
He had a pair of very deep eyes, pale lips. Altogether, his features were rather detached from the world, but strangely there was a kind of approachable aura about him.
Now, hold up a finger to your ear: “Listen. The roar of the Qilin ox is booming, rumbling, echoing so far. It must have attracted many people, who are now bumping into each other. So why am I here Why are you here”
His lips curved into an innocent smile: "Because we are a kind of people, we all have our own firm pursuits."
The person below the mountain path had a full forehead, broad facial features, bright eyes, and wore a red garment with gold trim. The martial robe rustled in the wind.
>
The whole person is beaming with joy.
“Don't block my way, or you'll die.” He said.
And she walked upward, slowly, with no intention of stopping for anyone or anything.
Obviously, he wasn't someone who was used to bringing warmth to others, even though his aura was so dazzling and brilliant.

“I am not your enemy, Dou Zhao. You can pass this path any time, I won't stop you.” The man on the mountain road said: “I am here just to tell you a better choice—we join hands, we can get more in the Shan Hai Realm.”
Dou Zhao smiled softly: "Have you always been this confident, or did you only start feeling confident today"
The man on the mountain path didn't become angry because of this contempt, and still smiled: "You probably think I'm a bit arrogant. But... how should I say it... I respect your strength, and I acknowledge that among those who entered the Shan Hai Realm this time, you are probably the strongest. But do you remember Jiang Wang After the Yellow River meeting, he fought and killed four powerful demons. Could you have done that when you were in the Inner Palace realm Now he has also established his outer tower. Don't you think he isn't a bit of a trouble What about Yue Tiannu The high disciple of the Washing Moon Monastery, always hovering around the outer tower, only because she—"
His words came to an abrupt halt.
Because there was a flash of blade.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Dou Zhao held the blood-soaked head in his left hand and glanced at it: "You still haven't figured out who you are."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
He tossed it behind him carelessly and continued walking up the mountain.
The skull rolled down the mountain path, and after a while, the headless body began to spurt blood madly before collapsing heavily.
There are mountains under the sea.
Like a dragon coiled on the ground.
Of course, some places are dominated and dangerous, while others are desolate but safe.
In a dimly lit mountain cave, Chu Yu stood with his arms crossed.
He was never particularly outstanding. When he was with other prodigies, he didn't stand out much.
His personality is not distinctive, his behavior is not out of the ordinary, and his temperament is not special.
But at this moment, when nobody was around.
He stood there, as if he were one with the underwater mountains.
There is a heavy sense of power.
Soon, the stone statue standing beside him moved slightly. After exploding with cracks, a face with cold features appeared. Then light and color began to appear, and the details of the face gradually came alive.
...but it was the man who had been killed by Dou Zhao's sword on that mountain path!
At this moment, standing beside Chu Yu was none other than Xiao Shu, the proud son of Dan Guo, whom Chu Yu had invited to lend his aid.
He once performed on stage at the confluence of the Yellow River, but Dou Zhao unfortunately doesn't remember it.
"How is it" Chu Yu asked without any hope.
Xiao Shu just had his head chopped off, but he's actually smiling right now.
>
"He smiled and shook his head, saying, “Dou Zhao is Dou Zhao after all, he's not easily fooled. He didn't even let me finish my sentence. You see, if everyone in the world were like this, would there even be a way for merchants to survive”
He was making lighthearted jokes, but Chu Yu's tone was heavy: "You wasted a puppet body for nothing."
"It's not a waste, after all, I understand him a little better now," Xiao Shu looked at Chu Yu and smiled. "There are so many groups in the Shanhai Realm, ours is definitely the weakest. It's important to understand the mindset of the strong, isn't it"
Among the top talents of Chu State, others who sought help from powerful figures were mostly located on the outer floors.
Even when Zuo Guangshu asked Jiang Wang for help, Jiang Wang had not yet established the Star Tower. But he was still the foremost Yellow River expert in the Inner Court, unlike any other.
Of all the preparations, only Chu Yu invited Xiao Shu.
In terms of cultivation and background, he is inferior to others.
>
What this reflects is not that Xiao Shu is inferior to others, but that his network of contacts, like Chu Yu's, is far less extensive than others.
>
If someone else were faced with this topic, they would probably be discouraged.
But Chu Yu laughed instead: "I've already seen our first advantage—at least others won't be the first to think of targeting us."
Xiao Shu seemed to understand Chu Yu's personality well. With a single sentence, he shifted his mood and now laughed, "Very good! Then let's strike while the iron is hot and find our second advantage. Accumulating small advantages bit by bit will lead to victory."
Chu Yu followed him out of the cave without hesitation: "Can you find it"
“Who knows But it can’t get any worse anyway.”
"Haha, sorry Xiao brother! It's really not easy to get you involved in such a game of chess!"
"It seems Brother Chu has an eye for talent. I excel at turning unfavorable situations to my advantage. If Lord Dou asked me to play, I wouldn't know where to begin!"
Though they spoke of themselves as inferior, their steps were firm and resolute. They conversed with ease, unfazed by any hardship.
But after all, the sound only stays underwater and doesn't travel too far.
Just like they, the moment they entered the Sea-Mountain Realm, their first priority wasn't exploration, but finding a place to hide.
Subdued, tranquil.
Following the trail of grass, Jiang flew down the road at full speed. He only pursued the tracks and not the person, thus maximizing his chances of avoiding detection.
Of course, if we are discovered, then it will simply be a battle.
Facing the worst possible outcome with no hesitation, Jiang Wang resolutely chased after him.
Zhongli Yan and Fan Wujue had no gain, so they simply left. Once there was any gain, they would immediately snatch it away.
“Later, if you have to make a move, don’t hesitate, and don’t act too lightly. I'll make my move first, then you can follow. I'll find Zhongli Yan, and you find Fan Wujue. Ideally, we should be able to take out one of them with a surprise attack.”
"Why don't we join forces and ambush one Like Fan Wujue. Wouldn't that be more secure"
In an environment like the Shan Hai Realm, it's actually very difficult for sneak attacks to succeed; they wouldn't possibly be able to relax their guard.
What was the point of the sneak attack
“To make them subconsciously feel that we are still choosing one-on-one, I think Zhōnglí Yán won’t be afraid to face me, and Fàn Wúshù won’t be afraid to face you. I will look for opportunities in my fight with Zhōnglí Yán, and when I turn to Fàn Wúshù, you must also unleash your strongest means. We will both pour our maximum killing power onto Fàn Wúshù, eliminating him. Zhōnglí Yán will be easy to handle... By the way, what kind of appropriate restraint methods do you have It’s best if it can block Zhōnglí Yán for a while. I have a super-grade Daoist technique Dragon and Tiger here, and a legal school's binding chain. I estimate that these effects won’t be good against a martial artist like Zhōnglí Yán.”
“If it’s a sneak attack, I can use the Mirage to intercept Zhongli Yan first. Even if his physical body is strong, he won't be able to do anything if he can't find his bearings. The key point is Fan Wujue. I only learned today that he is skilled in ice magic. In this case, his short-term burst of defense might be very impressive…”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Before my killing nail, there is no defense that is remarkable."
"So...as long as his ice intensity doesn't exceed ten times that of our previous fight, I can melt a hole in the shortest amount of time. That gives your killing nail an opportunity to work."
"That's best! But be prepared for failure, after all, we're not facing weaklings."
“Of course. I think our second plan still prioritizes Fan Wujue as the primary target for elimination. If Zhongli Yan isn't restrained, the first thing to do is...”
In the midst of their flight, the Smoke and Armor duo actively exchanged ideas, discussing how to assassinate their opponents when they eventually seized the treasure.
This should not be a problem! Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated.
Zuo Guangshu was discussing excitedly, a mixture of nervousness and excitement making him forget his usual principle of "valuing peace". He only thought about how to fight alongside Jiang Gege, viewing Fan Wujue's head as an easy conquest.
> Seeing his younger brother's growth, Elder Brother Jiang was also very pleased.
He has no intention of keeping anything secret and generously shares the valuable experience he's gained over the years fighting in the wild. He teaches everything from how to ambush, how to design traps, to how to set up ambushes...
The young prince of Chu, who rarely left his home, had his eyes shining with admiration and awe.
But as the saying goes, "When joy reaches its peak, sorrow follows." Perhaps it is fate's jealousy of extraordinary talent.
The two brothers were huddled together, discussing something heatedly, when suddenly their vision was filled with blinding white.
Jiang Wang felt like his ears were almost deaf!
I can't hear anything at all.
This change came too suddenly.
It happened in a flash, so quickly that even Jiang Wang's sharp reflexes couldn't react.
He instinctively pressed out a fire barrier, protecting himself and Zuo Guangshu within it.
After a pause of two breaths, there was finally a sound in my ears—
Boom!
Boom!
Thunder rolled across the heavens.
Only then did a vibrant and lively Fire Realm appear within my vision, bringing forth fire blossoms and firebirds. Only then, outside the world of fire, did I see lightning!
It was a twisted, serpentine bolt of electricity, yet it was too massive, too powerful, containing power that was too terrifying.

Reaching for the heavens, it connects to the azure sea below.
is expanding and growing at an astonishing rate.
Surrounding everything!
It was like a gigantic lightning column, as if it held up the sky and the sea.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
And it's still expanding, as if it were going to cover the whole world.
Such terrifying might must have been the ultimate weapon for that Qilin Ox.

What happened to the qilin ox Who is it fighting with
>
These questions appeared in my mind, but there was no time to think about them.
>
Because the most important thing now is to protect ourselves within this unreasonable wave of influence.
In Zuo Jia's Shan Hai Lianyu, there was Lei Zhi Lianyu, where Jiang Wang and Zuo Guangshu had practiced many times. But that so-called extreme environment, before this terrifying thunderbolt, was nothing at all.
A massive bolt of lightning expanded, with a light curtain formed by electricity on the outer edge.
Of course, calling it a "veil" implies a certain thinness, but only in comparison to the vast expanse of this world.
>

So-called thin curtains, for cultivators, are simply a roaring wall of thunder and lightning!
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
On the wildly expanding wall of lightning, countless bolts of thunder writhed with power. Their fangs bared and claws outstretched, they sought to annihilate everything in their path.
>
All that is heard, seen, and known shall be shattered by this lightning.
While Jiang Wang's defensive Dao arts were never among the top-tier.
He is skilled at offense and defense, and he made this decision decisively.
>
After just a glance at Zuo Guangshu, he urged Yuan madly, pouring more power into the Fire Realm.
This will make this side of the Fire Realm more vivid and nurture a more magnificent energy.
In the Shahai Purgatory, cultivation isn't just about adapting to extreme environments; it's also about the tacit understanding they develop with each other.
This is a placeholder for text.
Even before Jiang Wang could react, Zuo Guangshu had already reached out and pressed down.
A drop of water fell from his thin hand.
Here's the translated text, keeping the HTML tags:

This drop of water is crystal clear, transparent, and beautiful like a jewel.
With a splash, the water made a sound.
The mighty water dragon pulled the Water God's chariot, suddenly leaping out. In an instant, a drop of water swelled into a world.
In the midst of clear waters, large fish swim.
Aquatic plants sway, and crab shells share a dwelling.
The Water Realm is born!
Similar to the Fire Realm, but also with a completely different creation.
Here's the translation:

Exclusive to ZuGuangShu's creation.
...and also boiled with the vitality of Zuo Guangshu.

At this very moment.
The Water Realm is right below the Fire Realm.
The fiery world and the azure world are reflected in each other.

The world created by the two divine Dao techniques shines brightly amidst the murky daylight and countless thunderbolts in the vast expanse of mountains and seas.
From afar, it looks like a firework burning on a water droplet.g Wang was also the target that Bai Xiangwang used to please Xue Wang, an important pawn in his decision on whether to continue this war.>Fu Yanqing fled, which wouldn't affect Bai Xiangwang's determi...
