As long as I have enough time...

But that guy seems to have noticed something wrong.

His Secret Agents started probing me relentlessly.

I had no choice but to make 'me' appear again, diverting their attention.

Moreover...

This time, I gained an unexpected achievement."

At this point, Cui Long, the 'Great Dragon Head', who had just calmed down his killing intent, felt it surge violently once more.

He spoke almost word by word—

"I discovered that my long-time 'ally' was deceiving me.

By the time I realized, I had already stepped into the Emperor's trap since I began challenging him.

A link leading to another.

Step by step.

Everything was part of his calculation.

Therefore, I moved my plan ahead.

I came to the 'Northern Capital'.

I will resolve everything my way."

After speaking, Cui Long, the 'Great Dragon Head', turned to look at the entrance of the manor.

A figure had already appeared there.

A black cloak and a bronze mask covering his face.

Facing the 'Great Dragon Head' Cui Long's gaze, he stepped in leisurely.

Casual, and indifferent.

Just like the tone of his voice.

"How did you find out? I thought I hid it well."

The Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult' asked with a hint of curiosity.

"Your disguise was indeed flawless, but man can never outwit the heavens. You have been pretending to be gravely injured, and out of guilt, I wanted to find a Secret Medicine to heal you.

The 'Creation Pill' was a formula I acquired with great difficulty. Under the guise of dueling myself, I used the accumulations of 'Si Hai Bang' from the past ten years and began crafting this Secret Medicine.

To cover it up, I even deliberately had the Dragon Maiden and Red Sleeve craft a counterfeit version of the 'Creation Pill'.

This was originally my method to guard against prying eyes.

But unexpectedly, it attracted unforeseen enemies."

Cui Long, the 'Great Dragon Head', glared at the Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult'.

The latter pondered for a moment and sighed softly.

"To ease your mind for alchemy, I cooperatively mobilized the 'Transmigration Cult' forces to seize cities in the 'Frontier Province', hoping to attract your attention and put you at ease.

Initially, it went smoothly. Your first feigned death cleared the 'Si Hai Bang' from within, readying you for alchemy.

But when I foolishly sent the 'Heavenly Monster's heir' near 'Si Hai Bang', you sensed something was off.

I rushed to remedy it.

But it was too late.

Because I never thought that the alchemist wasn't Dragon Maiden or Red Sleeve, but you! Who could have guessed that the illustrious 'Great Dragon Head' Cui Long was the real Alchemist within 'Si Hai Bang'!

Of course,

There's also you!"

The Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult' turned to look at Jason, his gaze filled with palpable hatred.

"If it weren't for you, this fool wouldn't have discovered any of it!

If it weren't for you, he would still be following my plan obediently!

Everything!

It's all because of you!"

With a roar, the Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult' threw a punch.

As always, with immense power.

And as always, carrying a sense of reincarnation.

The multitudes, seemed about to fall into oblivion in this moment.

The masses, seemingly all about to transmigrate in this moment.

But facing this punch, Jason did not move from where he stood.

Because Cui Long, the 'Great Dragon Head', moved first.

Blocking in front of him with a palm strike.

The sound of crashing waves suddenly arose.

As if, in the next moment, giant waves would fall from the sky.

But it was all thunder without rain.

Only noise.

No giant waves.

And the 'obstructed' Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult' leaped over Cui Long, the 'Great Dragon Head', delivering a punch straight at Jason.

This punch from the Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult' had no restraint.

He used all his power.

He had waited long for this moment.

This person who wrecked his plan.

This possible hidden pawn of that guy.

Now!

None of it mattered!

As long as the opponent died!

Everything could resume!

Moreover, killing him, that guy would surely feel pain, wouldn't he?

With this thought, an indescribable pleasure appeared in the eyes of the Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult'.

This punch became even more formidable.

Buzz!

After a faint tremor in the air.

A seven-colored halo emerged behind the Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult'.

The rich scent of sandalwood instantly filled the entire manor.

As if there were layers of people bowing down.

These people looked at the Sect Hierarch of the 'Transmigration Cult', their eyes filled with fervor.

Then, they looked at Jason.

Eyes full of confusion.

Then came the rebuke.

Kneel!

Kneel!

Kneel!

A voice followed by another, angrily shouting, seeming to almost tear Jason's heart apart.

Yet, Jason remained completely unaffected.

He heard the shouts.

But it was like a gentle breeze brushing his face.

After countless trials within their replicas, his mental fortitude had already become as strong as steel.

Such influence was practically negligible.

Moreover, compared to the hunger he constantly endured, what did this amount to?

Grrr!

Jason's stomach churned.

The hunger stemming from the depths of his soul made Jason's breath catch slightly.

Then—

Roar!

The roar of hunger echoed within his soul.

A dark behemoth with crimson eyes and a blood-curdling mouth appeared behind Jason.

Confronted by the rich aroma of sandalwood, it first took a deep breath in.

Immediately, the sandalwood fragrance permeating the entire estate vanished.

Then its scarlet eyes gazed upon those kneeling figures.

Before it could act.

Those figures burst like soap bubbles under sunlight, one after another.

Remaining were only the fist of the Sect Hierarch of the Transmigration Cult.

A fist that had just been filled with immense power.

At this moment, it became sluggish.

Being stared at by the dark behemoth, the heart of the Sect Hierarch of the Transmigration Cult quivered, turned cold.

It was fear born out of biological instinct.

It was the authority of a being at the apex of the life chain over those below.

Even the Sect Hierarch was not an exception.

He too was affected.

Even though, immediately after, the Sect Hierarch reacted.

But on the battlefield, a split second is sufficient.

Roar!

A Water Dragon soared upwards.

The colossal dragon head, as large as a locomotive, crashed heavily onto the Sect Hierarch's back.

Boom!

The body of the Sect Hierarch shattered into pieces.

The remaining head bore eyes filled with deep disbelief.

As if not believing that the Heavenly Monster had attacked him.

The rainbow-hued circle floating in the air flickered repeatedly.

Next moment, the shattered Sect Hierarch appeared once more.

The bronze mask, by now, had long since broken.

The true face was revealed.

Thick eyebrows and large eyes, slightly plump features, exuding a hint of grace, yet there was more dignity between the brows.

To an ordinary person, he would seem unusual at first glance.

But at this time, he appeared somewhat dazed.

"Why did you attack me?

Are you betraying us?

And where did you learn the Jing Tao Palm?

Is that fool Cui Long Wang still alive?"

The Sect Hierarch, no, the Carefree King, questioned repeatedly.

And in response came another strike of Jing Tao Palm from Cui Long Wang.

But this mighty palm was merely a facade.

The true killing move was the knife.

Clang!

A gleam of the knife flew in from outside the manor, landing in Cui Long Wang's hand.

At this moment, Cui Long Wang's aura changed instantly. <subtex>.</subtex>

Dominant.

Steadfast.

Like a gentleman, yet fiercely domineering.

Two different auras appeared simultaneously.

Contradictory, complex.

And yet, this contradictory, complex aura inexplicably harmonized into one.

That was,

Sharpness!

The unstoppable, all-cleaving sharpness!

The Carefree King should have realized something was wrong early on, but in the 'resurrection' state, he was evidently abnormal and didn't notice it at all.

Only to see a flash of knife light.

The Knife Monarch had already appeared behind the Carefree King.

It was—

Water Dragon roars, astonishes Transmigration.

Hidden blade, slays Carefree.

The Carefree King was once again split into two.

And this time, did not resurrect smoothly as before.

Flames roared fiercely.

They burst forth.

The corpse of the Carefree King instantly turned to ash.

The rainbow circle still flickered, but no matter how it flickered, it couldn't keep up with the speed of those scorching flames.

Based on some mechanism.

The Carefree King hidden within the rainbow circle triggered a backup move.

That was...

The smell of medicine!
