Chapter 71: Long Sigh
ry's territory. By a stroke of luck, he survived and has already repaid the kindness of his upbringing."From now on, he will consider you... his enemy!Let me know if you have any other text you'd like...With the soul-trapping ambush set up in Tongtian Palace, Tai Yin finally witnessed Jiang Wang's fourth divine ability beyond the Three Calamity True Fire, the Unprecedented Wind, and the Sword Immortal.
I understand now what the undying crimson light represents.
But he also simultaneously felt Jiang Wang's resolute killing intent.
Just as he initially saw Jiang Wang as a rival who had to be eliminated, Jiang Wang undoubtedly saw him as an enemy.

Even Jiang Wang was more ruthless, desiring even more.
What Jiang Wang wanted wasn't simply victory over him in the Sea-Mountain Realm. Three percent of a soul's essence wasn't enough to warrant such effort from Jiang Wang. There were readily available Disaster King Beasts who could be summoned, so why drag his wounded body into battle personally
What that person desired was to completely erase his Ta Yin from this world.
Let Xia Guo lose a day of pride!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Even this idea wasn't born after the fourth divine ability was revealed, it already existed.
The fact that they chose to have the Doom Beast kill Xiang Bei instead of someone more threatening demonstrates the intent to kill.
Even if Jiang Wang truly found a way to circumvent the rules of Shan Hai Jing, he still wouldn't be able to completely erase Xiang Bei.
Otherwise, the moment one leaves the Shan Hai Realm, it will be the time they are buried with Xiang Bei.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
And he, from the Xia Kingdom and of the Tai clan, even if he truly disappeared in the Shanhai Realm, no one would be able to speak up for him.
The Tai clan's reach could not extend to Chu, let alone Qi.
Even the Summer Emperor would have no face before the prince of Qi.
He died, he really died.
Just like a wildflower wilts, like a tree's leaves fall.
That's it.
Nothing will happen...
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The exposure of the fourth supernatural power only made Jiang Wang's determination to eliminate him more resolute.
Tai Yin was acutely aware of this.
In that instant, his mind raced, countless ways to respond flashing before him.
This is a response to your request.
But in the end, he only turned his head abruptly.
With that turn, he twisted his neck three full circles, and in doing so, snapped his own head clean off!
Without struggle, without trying, without further effort.
Tai Yin chose suicide directly.
Once, Jiang Wang had killed a gifted disciple of the Inner Palace in front of a living immortal, preventing him from being resurrected. That living immortal had personally set up an altar to try and save him, but to no avail.
Although Diaohailou tried its best to conceal the matter, Xia Guo's side still learned about it.
Also, he left a very deep impression in his heart.
He didn't know if in the Shan Hai realm, Jiang Wang could truly do what he said and completely eliminate him by jumping over the rules.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!
But he didn't want to try.
I don't want to give Jiang Wang a chance.
...especially don't want to risk my own life!
Tai Yin's head spun in the air for several circles before his eyes dimmed, but he still grinned, as if saying——
You will never truly be able to erase me.
Jiang Wang had confirmed to himself that since the start of the war, he had never revealed his intention to circumvent the rules of the Shan Hai realm and completely eliminate Tai Yin.
But Tai Yin seemed to have seen through it.
Not only that, but the trap he set at the Heavenly Palace also gave him a chill.
If it weren't for the fact that his Red Heart Divine Ability happened to restrain the Diagram of Ten Thousand Demons, he truly might not have been able to gain the upper hand in that instant.

This was too much for him, giving him too many "surprises."
Any existence that can be called a prodigy of the country, it is indeed impossible to underestimate.
One can imagine that if Xiang Bei hadn't been directly killed by the three forks, he would have definitely revealed more hidden cards.
Today's battle was entirely decided by force.
>
There really isn't anything worth boasting about.
Looking at Tai Yin's body disappearing before his eyes, the killing intent toward this person settled deeper in his heart, becoming more resolute.
He strangled himself.
What a painful thing this is, how resolute a will it takes to carry it out.
Jiang Wang has already seen it.
One who possesses talent, ability, and will, and regards oneself as an enemy, is truly unsettling.
But even if there's still something to be done, it will all be after leaving the Shan Hai Realm.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Xiangbei and Taiyin are already out, the only thing they probably took away is information about his Red Heart Divine Ability.
Jiang Wang silently pondered for a moment, feeling that it wasn't a huge loss.
This divine power of sincerity cannot be left unused.
Even in the future, we will continue to use it more, explore it more, and develop it more.
It's impossible to completely hide something from others.
Exposure is only a matter of time.
Just now, he actually had the thought of using a detour to stop Ta Yin from committing suicide, but he really wasn't sure if he could bypass the rules of the Shan Hai realm and truly kill Ta Yin... so he just had to give up.
If the wrong path is exposed, then it's not worth it.
He kept replaying the battle in his mind, trying to tend to his wounds, and unconsciously glanced towards the trident.
Three-pronged leaned his head, as if pondering what trick his chef had used to make the opponent commit suicide in such a cruel way.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang originally intended to express gratitude to this calamity king, taking advantage of this opportunity to team up against the enemy to get closer. Who knows, maybe after this, he could even bring Sancha to fight Dou Zhao...
But the moment he saw the fork, he changed his mind.
With a hand covering the abdominal wound, he suddenly relaxed and let it drop.
The whole person was like a bird with broken wings, falling headlong.
He said nothing, but he had already said everything.
Help me!
>
I need to be rescued!
More Fire Lilies! Or any other celestial treasures would do!
>
Three-pronged stared blankly as the cook, headfirst, tumbled into the magma pool with a plop. Molten rock splashed everywhere... for a moment, he was speechless.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!
How did the chef get hurt so badly just now
Then how come the bipedal creature over there had to kill it himself
I'm still inexplicably confused, but my claws have already reached out and pulled the chef who fell into the magma back out—under such severe injuries, if left buried any longer, he would probably suffocate.
Take a few steps forward and get closer to have a look.
Looking at the receding lava, the chef's tightly shut eyes and pallid face.
Then look at the huge wound on his abdomen...
The unabated crimson blood painted the nearby magma red.
This scene is truly heart-wrenching.
As a king of its age, the Trident naturally wouldn't have any sympathy for bipeds.
Wang's heart, cold as ice, hard as steel!
But the cook is dead, after all, meaning the disappearance of the Satori True Fire feast...
Sānchǎ thought about it for a while, feeling that "the king's heart" might need to be more long-sighted sometimes.
At last, a claw landed on the cook's abdominal wound. Channeling divine power, it swiftly repaired the injury.
This was Jiang Wang's first time feeling the "treatment" of a calamity beast while awake.
The last time I was beaten unconscious, I have no idea how my body recovered.
This time, he could clearly feel how the three-pronged power of calamity stimulated the wound, igniting vitality. And how it gently transformed into pure energy, replenishing this severely wounded body.
Within that gentle yet overwhelming divine power, that ominous force was carefully contained...
Jiang Wang actually really wanted to analyze and even simulate that ominous power, but he also knew that he couldn't bear it now, let alone successfully simulate it.
At most, he could only learn a little. This Calamity King's control over power —
Very old-fashioned, but a very direct way of use. Not at all refined, but it has a sense of returning to simplicity.
He was quite an inspiration to him.
Feeling the wound on his abdomen healing, Jiang Wang really wanted to ask Sanya to stop.
>
This kind of injury can be healed by eating some heavenly and earthly treasures, why bother the esteemed King of Calamity to do it himself
But that can't be said directly after all...
He said three times but still couldn't understand.
Understanding things gets worse.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He wanted to test the wound himself, but he was afraid that Sancha would find out—that vicious dog was very cunning and wouldn't be easily fooled.
After much deliberation, I still ended up lying down honestly...
Building trust is not easy, but being slapped to death is very easy.
Better not to take the risk.
The wound grew new flesh and healed quickly, after which the calamity stopped channeling divine power.
>
At this moment, it had returned to its normal size and was squatting beside Jiang Wang. At first glance, it seemed...quite obedient
The surface of the lava lake was still bubbling slowly, the sound of the constant rising and occasional bursting bubbles sounding quite peaceful.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Sānchǎ tilted its head and poked at Jiāng Wàng's abdomen with its claws, as if to see if the newly grown flesh was firm. In order to care for the wounded, it hid its claw tips in its paw pads, and the feeling of the paw pads touching the abdominal muscles was very strange.
At this moment, the softness felt so real that Jiang Wang couldn't help but raise her hand, wanting to rub "Dog Head" - as Sancha suddenly raised his eyes in alarm, her hand awkwardly drew an arc in the air and rubbed her own head.
With a broad smile: "We! Good friends! Haha!"
The triceratops let out a mighty roar, lifted its head, and strode away arrogantly.
“Be careful walking, you cheapskate, or you’ll break your neck!” Jiang Wang enthusiastically bid farewell with a loud voice, waving his hand vigorously.
The surrounding hellhounds of the magma lake also let out a chorus of yelps, it was unclear what they were howling about, perhaps celebrating the friendship between this one man and the calamity beast.
Shortly afterward, the headman of house number one came flying over with a fire lily in his mouth.
>
Lord Jiang took it with a hint of displeasure and casually flicked a flame, sending the small leader whose number was on his chest away.
Then lay back down, leaning against the basalt pillow, carefully reviewing the battle with Xiangbei Taiyin while languidly eating fire lotus.
Though Triforce is a bit stingy, it's better to have something than nothing.
Of course, this time soaking in the tub, I didn't forget to set up some warning measures.
The magma bath, the treasure of fire walking.
The sea breeze is free, and the sky is bright.
>Another brilliant day!
Xiangbei opened his eyes and saw the layout of the Xiang family's mansion.
After a moment of stunned silence, he finally accepted the reality that he was out.
He lightly touched his forehead, confirming that his skull was still intact. The King of Calamities' slap truly... left a lasting impression.
The soul remained vibrant and spirited, without the imagined pain.
However, this feeling of obvious weakness was better than all the pains in the world.
Three out of ten of his soul essence has already been cut away...
This means something, Xiangbei knows very well.
What's worse... he wasn't the only one who knew.
Knock knock!
Following the sound of knocking, came the voice of Madam Xiang's chief household elder—
Here is the text translated into English:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Is it over"
“It’s over.” Xiangbei heard his own voice say, so dry and powerless. It surprised even him.
Then the door was pushed open.
A broad-faced old man walked in.
He was tall and strong, and in his youth he must have been a fearsome warrior.
Looking at Xiangbei, he didn't say much, just took out a jade bottle and placed it on the small square table beside Xiangbei.
"This YUAN PO Dan can repair your damaged soul."
>
Then he turned and walked out.
There is not a single place without disappointment, nor a single word that doesn't express it.
"Hey everyone!" Xiang Bei called out.
Now the current head of the Xiang family, Chief Elder Xiang Yuanji, stopped and waited for his subordinate to continue.
"One more is needed," Xiang Bei said.
When the demon king beast obeyed Jiang Wang's summons and took action, the outcome of their surprise attack on Volcano Island was already sealed.
It's only a matter of time before Tai Yin leaves.

Elixirs related to the soul have always been extremely expensive and rare. In emergencies, it often takes more than double the price to secure one.
For Tai Yin's three-tenths of his soul origin to be replenished, the price...the current Tai clan might not even be willing to pay it.
So even though he knew the Xiang family was not doing well now, Xiang Bei still gritted his teeth and spoke.
As proud as he is, it's not easy to get him to open his mouth.

“The Xiang family is not the Xiang family it used to be.” Xiang Yuanji sighed and then said, “There’s only one left.”
He left the room without another word.
Xiangbei remained silent.
The world-renowned Halberd rested across his knees as he sat alone on the meditation cushion.
No one knows what he was thinking at that time.
Here is your translated text:
Let me know if you have any other content you'd like me to translate!
A solitary lamp, a silent room, an unspoken loneliness.
After a long time, with no movement or change in energy, Tai Yin appeared on the nearby cushion, his face pale as death.
He kept the posture he had when entering the Shan Hai Realm.
It seems like nothing happened.
Thus, the two's journey through the Shan Hai Realm has come to an end. The Washi Jade Bi will only appear here after the Shan Hai Realm closes.
Tai Yin, with three tenths of his divine soul essence depleted, was weak and frail, yet he smiled and said, "Long time no see!"
Item Bei curled his lips: "I didn't wait that long, really."

“Jiang Wang’s fourth supernatural ability should be related to willpower, at least having the ability to resist mental intrusions, perfectly countering your myriad demon diagram. He stepped into the trap, but broke it.”
His fifth divine ability should be related to foreseeing danger. My Hundred Soldiers Killing Formation had clearly eliminated all traces of movement, yet he still managed to escape at the last moment of its activation...
However, his supernatural powers were not as powerful as the legendary spontaneous bursts of inspiration.
If he truly has mystical powers, he should have sensed our plans as we were plotting in the mountains. He wouldn't have fallen for your attack.
At this level of warning, if we had known in advance, with just a little preparation, we could have prevented him from reacting at all.
I think his secret fifth supernatural power, besides warning of danger, should have other abilities.
Tai Yin chuckled and shook his head. "Analyzing this now feels like hindsight bias. Though I don't want to admit it, I really underestimated him... You're right, maybe we shouldn't have bothered him."
“The path we chose is one we walked together. That means the right choices, and the wrong ones, were made together. If I was truly so certain of my own rightness, why would I risk it all with you”
Having said that, Xiang Bei gestured towards the small table beside him with his chin. "There is a Yuanpo Dan here. It can make up for your missing soul origin,"
Tai Yin hesitated for a moment before reluctantly saying, "I said it before I came, I take the risk myself. Besides, this time is mainly because of my misjudgment..."
Item Bei waved his hand, stopping him: "Big Brother, you don't have to say more. This is my responsibility to bear."
Tai Yin wanted to be brave in front of his friends, but the three tenths of his divine soul origin that had been erased lingered like a shadow over his heart.
He tried to stay calm, but how could he not think about it
As for a treasure of Yuanpo Dan's level, Tai Shi might still be able to afford the price. But even he wasn't sure if Tai Shi would pay such a price for someone who had failed repeatedly like him.
The Xiang family, the Xiang family is ultimately different after all.
If Xiangbei is willing to speak up, the Yuàn pò dān (Soul Returning Pill) won't be a problem...
Thinking this way, the words that came out were: "Then I'll have to accept it."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Tai Yin seemed to hear a sigh...
But he wasn't sure, sighing that person, whether it was himself.f anyone is heard playing it, they'll get into trouble.”She glanced at the courtesan embracing a pipa behind the screen and chided, "Who allowed you to sing at this time You'll be killed!"The singer c...
