Wandering Gods of Day and Night

Since he couldn't retract it, Zhou Xuan began sweeping his Perception across the Yellow Dragon.

With this sweep,

Zhou Xuan perceived that inside the dragon's body, there was a mass of fog—a fog that was indistinct and unclear.

"Star Covering?"

Upon seeing the fog, Zhou Xuan instinctively thought of the mist deployed by Star Covering during Mingjiang's calamity—a mist that blocked the Divine Power.

"Sister, I'm in danger."

Zhou Xuan immediately said internally with a quiet thought.

At the same time, he turned around quickly and pulled out the "Peng Hou" mask from his waist, putting it on his face. In his hands, he also grasped the "Divine Armor" and activated his spiritual characteristic—Face Reading.

With a glance,

the Dragon Dance Team members were suddenly illuminated with flames flaring on their bodies.

Without waiting for Zhou Lingyi's response, Zhou Xuan knew he could not delay any longer.

This group of two or three dozen people was surrounded by incense. If they closed in for a kill, could he still escape?

The situation was urgent, and he didn't even have time for a Divine Soul Day Trip.

"Attack as defense."

At once, Zhou Xuan activated the Divine Armor while urging his tattoo bone teeth.

One moment he was among a crowd of onlookers, and the next, he appeared by the captain of the Dragon's Head. The bone teeth quickly moved around his body in a rapid motion.

In just a single encounter, the muscular and robust captain suddenly had dozens of holes pierced into his body.

A thick mist of blood rose fiercely into the air.

A tourist who had just been explaining the Dragon Dance rules to Zhou Xuan earlier caught sight of the blood mist and turned to Zhou Xuan beside him, saying, "Boss Zhou, it seems like some powerful figure is dissatisfied with the craftsmanship of the Dragon Lantern Team and is here to upend their stall… Boss Zhou..."

He turned his head, only to realize Zhou Xuan had disappeared. And when the blood mist settled, he saw Zhou Xuan was the one who attacked the Dragon Dance captain.

"Huh? Boss Zhou turns out to be a master of the martial world."

Zhou Xuan's strike was too swift and precise. He made his move without any intention of holding back and then again activated the Divine Armor to target the Dragon Lantern Team members near the captain's spine.

A second blood mist arose,

At that moment, the bystanders watching the spectacle saw the team captain lying in a pool of blood. Only then did they realize what had happened.

"Murder! Murder!"

Screamed an observant onlooker, and the remaining crowd dispersed and fled in chaos.

But Zhou Xuan's killing spree continued.

Within the Yellow Dragon, that fog suddenly spoke, "This one is Zhou Xuan. He's using the Ninth Incense of the Tattoo to empower himself… Divine Weapon Protection."

In the realm of the Tattoo Hall, skills were honed through tools,

tattoos were their methods, and bone needles were among their arsenals.

Zhou Xuan had completed the tattoo ritual of the hall and mastered control over bone teeth, reaching the "Divine Weapon Protection" level.

Zhou Xuan urged the bone teeth, which moved around him at lightning speed, making him appear from afar as if he was enveloped by a radiant white light.

Anyone who touched that light—provided their incense did not exceed Zhou Xuan's level by a significant margin—would be subject to its corrosive devastation.

"I've obviously blocked his Perception with fog; how could he sense something off about us?"

The person within the Yellow Dragon muttered in frustration.

She had no idea that Zhou Xuan, for the sake of refining the Dragon Seeking Incense all day, had maintained his Perception in a constantly active state.

"Activate the Magic Device."

The Dragon Lantern Team members, upon witnessing the scene, crushed the dragon handles in their hands one after another. From the shattered dragon handles emerged fiery long whips of blazing flame.

The body of the Yellow Dragon, losing its support from the handles, slowly descended to the ground.

"Fog, rise."

A soft command echoed from within the dragon's body, and the dragon's surface began to crack, unleashing dense white mist that rapidly enveloped the figures of the Dragon Lantern Team members.

Their fiery whips, hidden in the mist, shot toward Zhou Xuan unpredictably.

"This seems a bit like an array."

Zhou Xuan dodged the fiery whips using the Divine Armor while his thoughts rapidly processed the situation.

Two or three dozen blazing fire whips completely blocked the space within ten meters, forming a confinement ring that was quickly shrinking. Occasionally, a few probing whips struck forward, aiming to restrict Zhou Xuan's movement.

He attempted to use the Divine Armor to break out of the encirclement but was rebounded back as if hitting a stone wall.

The encirclement had now shrunk to a diameter of five or six meters. Within this space, Zhou Xuan could still rely on the agility of the Divine Armor to maneuver, but if the circle became even smaller, he would lose room to act flexibly.

"Two or three dozen disciples, all at the fifth or sixth incense level, forming a Xianhuo Divine Whip Array—plus my seven-incense level power—you have no reinforcements, so let's see where you'll run."

The woman inside the Yellow Dragon continued to spread her fog and intended to wait until it became dense enough to deliver a fatal strike against Zhou Xuan.

Faced with a desperate situation, Zhou Xuan remained undeterred.

He was well aware of his weakness—his incense level was not high enough to break through the array.

If his incense was too low, then he would have to raise it further.

"Heavenly Gods Divination."

With the bone teeth slashing through his palm, Zhou Xuan absorbed his blood and inscribed the "Sukuna Hand" in midair.

The Sukuna Hand shimmered with a faint blue glow, and Zhou Xuan absorbed all the blue, misty energy into his body,

causing his incense battle strength to soar rapidly.

Originally, with his mastery of Dragon Seeking Incense and Dunjia Incense, Zhou Xuan's incense level had reached four. After activating Heavenly Gods Divination, his battle strength surged, breaking through two additional levels.

Zhou Xuan now possessed the force of six incense levels.

"With my six-incense level battle strength, I'll unleash my Mountain and River Map to see if I can shatter your array."

Once again, Zhou Xuan activated the Divine Armor to maneuver and simultaneously opened his Kongming Mirror.

Before him, a mirror appeared reflecting an image of his Mountain and River Map—crafted from twenty-four God-level breaths.

"Mountain and River Map, emerge."

Zhou Xuan reached out his hand toward the Mountain and River Map, while his bone teeth frantically spiraled, carving out the tattoo of the Mountain and River Map into the real world…
