“The Buddha’s teachings are boundless; those who do not follow my guiding light will only face death.”
"Bullshit! Dragon roars across the nine heavens, ten thousand swords return to their origin!"
Yan Chixia shouted, and then the sword box behind him rose into the air, with countless Xuanyuan swords flying out of it.
Then, under Yan Chixia's control, all the Xuanyuan Swords formed a circle of sword light.
At this moment, Pudu Cihang put his two golden palms together, and a red light shot towards Yan Chixia.
"The righteous spirit shines brightly, as radiant as the sun and moon!" The sword light circle directly reflected the red light back.
It struck the forehead of the golden statue of Pudu Cihang Buddha directly, and Pudu Cihang immediately disappeared.
"Swords return to the boundless." Seeing that it had been driven back, Yan Chixia hurriedly controlled the Xuanyuan Sword to form a sword formation that surrounded Zhu Zhanji and Yan Chixia.
"Your Majesty, I have destroyed his avatar. He may attack later, so please be careful." Yan Chixia remained vigilant about his surroundings.
Before Zhu Zhanji could respond, a disturbance came from underground. The ground began to crack, and large amounts of gravel flew out from underground.
They marched towards the sword formation, and "Bang!" the sword formation was instantly shattered.
The creature from underground continued to approach Yan Chixia: "Damn it, the monster is underground! My sword formation has been broken! Your Majesty, come with me!"
With that, Yan Chixia slung the sword case that had already flown back to the Xuanyuan Sword over his back, grabbed the emperor, and flew out of the palace.
"Boom!" A huge roar was heard, and the entire palace collapsed.
Then a huge centipede head emerged from the ground, followed by the entire centipede body.
"What a huge monster! Brave warrior, you must slay this demon! Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty will be in grave danger!" Zhu Zhanji was terrified.
The centipede, which was over two hundred meters long, rammed headfirst into the palace where Yan Chixia had landed.
Seeing this, Yan Chixia had no choice but to continue flying outwards with His Majesty. Along the way, the centipede demon rampaged through the land, relentlessly pursuing them at undiminished speed. 7

Such a commotion had already been noticed by the imperial guards, who immediately began to gather around.
Although the imperial guards were terrified of the centipede demon, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and go after His Majesty, who was desperately trying to escape.
However, they dared not confront the centipede demon head-on, so they could only take out their bow and arrows and shoot at it, but to no avail.
"All of you, step back! This monster is not something you can handle!" Yan Chixia shouted, unable to bear seeing his guards die there.
"Yes, yes, all of you step back and let the brave warriors deal with this monster," Zhu Zhanji hurriedly ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The guards immediately retreated.
Yan Chixia looked around and saw that they had arrived at the square of the Forbidden City, where guards were retreating everywhere.
He used his magic to send Zhu Zhanji into the crowd of guards, then turned and stopped.
"Prajnaparamita".
The sword box opened, and countless Xuanyuan swords flew out. Yan Chixia jumped onto one of them and flew into the air.
"Divine Sword Subdues Demons, Go!" Yan Chixia thrust his two fingers forward repeatedly.
Then countless Xuanyuan swords shot directly towards the centipede demon's head.
However, after all the swords had been fired, the centipede demon was still completely unharmed.
"Heaven and earth are boundless, and the universe borrows their laws."
"Bang bang bang bang!" However, even after dozens of palm strikes, the centipede demon was still unharmed.
Ignoring everything else, the centipede demon focused its attack on Yan Chixia, who was in mid-air.
"No, this thousand-year-old demon is too powerful, I can't defeat it." Yan Chixia hurriedly flew away on his sword to avoid it.
"Ah, brave warrior, you can't defeat this monster either? What should we do then?" Zhu Zhanji's expression changed drastically.
"It's over, it's over, my Ming Dynasty is going to be destroyed by this centipede demon."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to rush. A friend of mine can easily kill this centipede demon."
"Then hurry up and send your friends over to slay the demons and monsters."
"Dragon King, I can't hold on any longer, I'm leaving it to you." Yan Chixia shouted and flew to Zhu Zhanji's side.
"Your Majesty, take a good look. My friend is no ordinary person." Yan Chixia stroked his long beard.
"They're here, they're here. If you can't even beat this, you need to work harder on your training." Lin Qing's voice rang out in the square.
Then, Lin Qing's figure slowly appeared in the sky.
"Dealing with this centipede demon is a piece of cake."
The centipede demon stopped the moment Lin Qing appeared and looked up at him.
The centipede demon found itself feeling uneasy, as a powerful pressure emanated from its golden body.
However, upon discovering that it was only a 2-meter-long dragon, they were immediately relieved.
Then he immediately felt excited. That was a dragon! If he ate it and then swallowed the emperor, he could transform into a dragon himself.
His plan was to slowly steal the fate of the Ming Dynasty and eventually transform into a dragon. The plan was almost complete.
He has devoured almost all the civil and military officials in the court, and stolen their fortune as well.
In another six months, once he has consumed all the officials of the fifth rank and above in the capital, he will finally add some spice to the emperor's life.
Let the emperor transform into a demon, then devour him. At that time, he can steal the entire fate of the Ming Dynasty, and that will be the time for him to transform into a dragon.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty will slowly perish, but what does that have to do with Pudu Cihang?
Now, if we swallow this dragon directly, and then swallow the emperor, we can transform into a dragon ourselves.
He couldn't wait any longer. Although he could transform into a dragon in half a year, the opportunity was right in front of him and he didn't want to wait even a day longer.
"Haha, who do you think I am? I'm just a little worm."
"You'd better obediently enter my belly and become nourishment for my dragon transformation!" Cihang Pudu laughed heartily.
"Hmm? You little reptile, are you talking about yourself?" Lin Qing sneered.
Then it transformed directly into its largest size, more than three times larger than Cihang Pudu.
"Hmph! What's so great about being a little bigger? Being a little bigger is fine too, there's more meat, and you can eat your fill." Cihang Pudu was a little discouraged.
After saying that, Cihang Pudu opened its big mouth and crashed into Lin Qing in the sky, and then it flew up itself.
"You're quite arrogant, so let's see who goes into my stomach or who goes into yours."
Lightning crackled from Lin Qing's horns, and instantly a bolt of lightning struck Cihang Pudu's gaping maw.
Instantly, Cihang Pudu was slammed to the ground, his mouth filled with charred black flesh.
"I prefer barbecue. It must be so crunchy for you. It's just a bit of a shame that it doesn't have cumin and sesame oil."
A burst of dragon breath was directly spewed onto Cihang Pudu's body, and then a raging fire engulfed Cihang Pudu, roasting him mercilessly.
"Ah, it hurts so much! Damn it, what kind of flame is this?!" Cihang Pudu rolled around, trying to relieve the pain.
Gradually, the flesh inside Cihang Pudu's body cooked, and a fragrant aroma wafted out. Cihang Pudu then lost all life.
Then, seeing that the time was right, Lin Qing inhaled directly into Cihang Pudu's mouth, and the flames and centipede flew directly into Lin Qing's mouth.
Lin Qing took a bite instinctively: "Crunch!"
"Ding! You have gained 20,000 evolution points by consuming the centipede demon."
At the same time, everyone except Yan Chixia stared in disbelief at the majestic Lin Qing in the sky.
"This, this, this is a dragon! My God, the centipede demon was actually eaten by it!" The emperor was shocked.
"Good, excellent! I never expected that I would receive help from the divine beast dragon, as well as this brave warrior Yan."
"Your Majesty flatters me. It is only right. As an emperor of the human world, you should not be harmed by demons." Lin Qing shrunk down and came to Yan Chixia's side.
He then gave Yan Chixia a wink, and Yan Chixia immediately understood, saying, "Your Majesty, this isn't the place to talk. Shall we..."
"Yes, yes, it was my oversight. Um, you all clean up the collapsed palace, let's go to the Imperial Study!" With that, Zhu Zhanji led the way.
Before long, they all arrived at the study, and then he summoned all the eunuchs and guards out.
"Your Majesty, we have come here today to discuss an important matter with you, and we hope you will agree." Yan Chixia got to the point.
"Oh, Mr. Yan, please speak frankly. I will certainly not refuse to do what I can."
"Your Majesty, even within the imperial palace, there exist powerful demons like Pudu Cihang; needless to say, the rest of the world is even more vulnerable."
"Treacherous officials are in power at court, the people are suffering, and demons are running rampant. The Ming Dynasty is in grave danger!"
"Yes, Yan Zhuangshi is right, but what should we do?" Zhu Zhanji was still afraid.
"We hope that His Majesty will appoint me as the Imperial Advisor, and then issue an imperial edict to summon talented individuals from all over the land to slay demons and monsters." It was Lin Qing who suggested that I become the Imperial Advisor.

"Of course, of course, it is my honor." Zhu Zhanji was immediately delighted upon hearing this.
He had previously been thinking about how to keep Yan Chixia and the dragon to serve him.
Unexpectedly, Yan Chixia actually brought it up himself, so how could he not be happy?
He thought about how he had been cuddling a centipede for years, and how they had done all sorts of things to each other. He felt nauseous and wanted to vomit. He believed that as long as the two of them stayed, there would be no more monsters in the palace.
"I will draft the decree now." The emperor hurriedly went to his desk.
"No rush, Your Majesty. The decree can be drafted at any time. It's just that if your health isn't addressed soon, you might not live for another six months," Lin Qing said slowly.
"Ah! Is what the Dragon King said true?" Zhu Zhanji was immediately startled.
"Of course, you don't even think about how many elixirs of immortality you've taken. They're all added to by Pudu Cihang."
"If you wait another six months, your luck will be unable to suppress the demonic energy, and that will be the time for you to transform into a demon."
"Then the centipede demon will devour you directly, not only consuming the demonic energy nurtured by your dragon body, but also the fate of the nation."
