Miaoyin Master called out her title.

Her figure flickered and appeared above the great river.

It was clear she had already made a decision.

Temporarily abandoning the male protagonist's side, she focused all her efforts on dealing with the Black Flood Dragon before her.

Zhao Yi watched from afar.

He felt something was off about the Black Flood Dragon's condition.

According to Miaoyin Master's account, this Black Flood Dragon was cunning and cowardly, fleeing at the first sign of injury, lacking the domineering aura and courage typical of its species.

The people of Xuanzhen Temple had hunted this Black Flood Dragon several times, scaring it so much it hadn't dared to show itself for years.

Miaoyin Master had even thought it had escaped to the sea.

Unexpectedly, it had suddenly reappeared, brazenly attacking the Xuanzhen Temple camp.

As the saying goes: "A country can be changed, but one's nature is hard to change."

This sudden defiance of its nature was highly suspicious!

Miaoyin Master apparently realized this as well.

She arrived above the Black Flood Dragon, standing in the void, scrutinizing the creature as it continued to spray water towards the camp.

The Black Flood Dragon's head was as large as a millstone, its long snake-like face covered in dense black scales, and its apricot-yellow vertical pupils were filled with bloodshot lines.

It had two antler-like horns on its head, and at seven inches, there was a fist-sized white scale resembling a fish scale.

Its snake belly had four symmetrical protrusions, each fist-sized, suggesting impressive claws hidden within, though the bulges looked exceedingly ugly before they emerged.

The Black Flood Dragon acted as if it hadn't seen Miaoyin Master, its gaping maw still furiously spitting water.

Miaoyin Master watched for a while without discernment, lightly exclaiming:

"Wicked beast! Cease your malicious act!"

Upon hearing Miaoyin Master's voice, the Black Flood Dragon shuddered instinctively.

It blinked, the bloodshots in its vertical pupils fading, its apricot-yellow eyes regaining a hint of clarity.

The Black Flood Dragon lowered its head, gazing at the devastated camp and the Daoists glaring from afar, unexpectedly shivering.

A trace of confusion flashed in its enormous eyes.

It had been sleeping peacefully in the river, inexplicably ending up attacking humans, especially those formidable Daoists!

Seeing the indignant Daoists, the fear embedded in its memory resurfaced.

"This is a misunderstanding!"

The Black Flood Dragon howled, immediately turning to burrow back into the great river without a second thought.

"Boundless Celestial Venerable!"

Miaoyin Master's voice sounded from behind the Black Flood Dragon.

Her left hand forming a seal, her right holding the duster.

Facing the enormous Black Flood Dragon, her face showed no hint of panic.

Hearing Miaoyin Master's voice, the Black Flood Dragon's body stiffened.

It mechanically turned back, gazing at the fearsome figure etched in its bones, its massive serpent body shuddering.

The Black Flood Dragon screamed: "Why are you, this freak, here?"

Miaoyin Master, hearing the Black Flood Dragon's insult, remained unmoved, instead curious about its sudden speech ability.

Her gaze swept over the four protrusions on the Black Flood Dragon's snake belly, nodding slightly: "No wonder you can speak human language now, you must be near reaching Tier Nine Saint King Realm. Do you think nearing a breakthrough, you can do as you please?!"

As Miaoyin Master spoke, she lifted her duster, filled with killing intent: "There's no time like the present! Since we've met today, I'll send you to reincarnation!"

The Black Flood Dragon hastily explained: "It's a misunderstanding! I didn't mean to attack you, I..."

Before it could finish, a clear bell sound suddenly rang out from the distant mountain.

Dong!

The bell chimed resonantly, carrying far and wide.

Miaoyin Master's brow furrowed slightly.

For some reason.

Hearing this bell, she felt a throbbing unease, her eyes tinged with blood.

Not good!

Miaoyin Master, endowed with extraordinary talent.

The strange sensation made her immediately realize something was amiss.

"Boundless Celestial Venerable!"

Miaoyin Master recited her title, instantly suppressing the intrusive thoughts.

She was about to alert the others.

At this moment.

A gigantic black tail sliced through the night sky, approaching with a piercing whistle.

Miaoyin Master steeled her expression, her duster transforming into three thousand entangled strands, sweeping towards the tail.

The Black Flood Dragon seemed to have lost its senses, its apricot-yellow pupils bloodshot.

Knowing there's danger ahead, yet its tail didn't shirk or swerve, crashing straight ahead.

Buzz!

The duster immediately drew taut.

Miaoyin Master staggered, nearly brought down by the Black Flood Dragon's terrifying strength.

She quickly formed seals, barely steadying herself.

However, she was now held up by the Black Flood Dragon.

Supporting others now was beyond reach.

Meanwhile.

Zuo Xiaoluo also faced a troublesome adversary.

Recognizing the appearance of "Heaven-Suspending Order," Zuo Xiaoluo immediately sensed something was wrong.

The remnants of the Heaven-Facing Sect had spotted their tracks and preemptively reacted.

Seizing the moment before the Imperial Guard could form a foothold, they launched an attack first, seemingly aiming to catch the Guard off guard!

Zuo Xiaoluo was about to protect Zhao Yi when a message reached her ears.

"By the Crown Prince's command, the General is to lead the troops against the enemy, and not fail!"

Upon hearing this, Zuo Xiaoluo turned towards Zhao Yi's direction.

Beside Zhao Yi was still only the little venomous creature.

As Zuo Xiaoluo's perception extended over, the space around Zhao Yi began to warp.

Clearly, many Tier Eight Ascension Realm experts were guarding him nearby.

Only then did Zuo Xiaoluo feel assured, focusing on deploying troops and preparing the camp.

The enemy did not grant much preparation time.

Zhao Yi stood atop the carriage, watching the battle from afar.

Just as Zuo Xiaoluo ordered the clearing of the camp, Zhao Yi saw countless black shadows jumping off the distant mountain like dumplings.
