The Xuanyuan Dharma King's four major disciples each had the strength of a Sect Hierarch, and among them, the Five Lascivious Venerable was the strongest person Shi Feiyang had encountered after Elder Kuzhu and One Light Master.

Back when he fought Elder Kuzhu, he was only facing his reincarnated body, whose Daoist power was far from comparable to that of his original self. Moreover, Shi Feiyang had preemptively calculated and exploited the flaws in his cultivation, causing his original self to become fossilized in meditation. Only by inducing him to fall into Demonized Cultivation did Shi Feiyang manage to secure victory.

Later, when he fought One Light Master, it was also because the latter was nearing his Heavenly Punishment, his mind in chaos. He had first caused the myriad demons employed in the Master's formation to turn and devour their owner, also driving him into Demonized Cultivation and partial paralysis before striking.

But now, facing the Five Lascivious Venerable, it was a real and tough battle. Both Jiang Xuejun and Zhu Youmu were of a Daoist power equivalent to that of the three immortals, two seniors, and one junior—a total of seven true individuals. Even so, despite hating the Five Lascivious Venerable to death, they did not seek revenge themselves. Instead, they had to plead with their master, Yan Yingmu, to lead and assist them from the side. It was almost as if they were guiding the hand of the Five Lascivious Venerable himself before they could strike him down, a testament to his formidable strength.

As the eldest disciplinary brother, the Five Lascivious Venerable had over eight hundred years of effort under his belt. When casting the same spell, he was far stronger than his junior brothers. Similarly, the Magical Treasures he had cultivated for over eight hundred years could not be mentioned in the same breath as his junior brothers'. His Seven Shaos Xuan Yin Heavenly Curtain could envelop an area of a hundred miles, while Poison Hand Mo Shen, his fourth junior brother, could only cover a few miles. Compared to the Five Lascivious Venerable, others' treasures were like children's toys.

If Elder Kuzhu was considered a side gate and One Light Master belonged to a Demon Cult, then the Five Lascivious Venerable was from an Evil Cult.

Shi Feiyang had taken out all his Magical Treasures but could not overcome him, for Immortal Techniques need Mana as a foundation. Despite having the cultivation of a Dragon Body for three thousand years, Shi Feiyang's alien nature meant his primary cultivation involved absorbing Sun Essence and Moonlight, not like humans who refine mercury. His Nascent Soul was not yet at Great Success, and he was not even an Earth Immortal yet, so his Mana was far from comparable to the Eight Hundred Years of cultivation of the Five Lascivious Venerable. In the end, he had to resort to Demon Path methods.

The Demon Cult teaches that it is fine to harm others for one's own gain. Normally they kill and refine demons, and though the demons obtained do not have their former strength, the advantage is that they do not exhaust one's own Mana.

Shi Feiyang unleashed twelve Divine Demons, surrounding the Five Lascivious Venerable in the center of a melee. Above them, three thousand Demon Beasts spewed fire and thunder, bombing wildly.

Even the Daoist power of the Five Lascivious Venerable could not withstand such an onslaught. His protective Magical Treasure was the first to shatter, dissipating into dense black smoke in the sky, with massive amounts of uncontrollable Golden Light Thunder scattering in all directions.

The Five Lascivious Venerable still tried to use the cover to cast Mysterious Skills and attempt to escape, but was quickly enveloped by the Myriad Cold Centipede's intense green toxic Dan Qi.

He rapidly collided upwards, downwards, and side to side within the Dan Qi, but failed to break out. Five demons, including the one passed on by the One Light Master, roared in unison as they attacked him. He released his flying arrows, which went off in a series of loud explosions, scattering the demons into clusters of Demon Light. He then tried to break out with his five Demon Blades.

Shi Feiyang countered with the Three Yangs One Qi Sword to block the blades and used the Nine Golden Flowers to surround and limit his movement.

Originally, the Five Lascivious Venerable was extremely fast, nearly teleporting within a dozen miles. Most of the attacks by the three thousand Demon Beasts fell on empty space.

This time, Shi Feiyang forced him into an area the size of a couple of acres. In the sky, the Elephant Dragon and its followers directed all their attacks down upon him, as wind, fire, thunder, and lightning fell ceaselessly upon him like a waterfall.

The Five Lascivious Venerable roared in fury, forming seals with both hands and casting with all his might. He retracted the Seven Shaos Xuan Yin Heavenly Curtain that filled the sky, condensing all of the black Sha of a hundred miles into an area of a couple of acres, protecting himself within it.

For a moment, the sky brightened, and Shi Feiyang could see the blue sky and white clouds once again. Looking to the other side, Ni Fangxian was also trapped by the Demon God ancestor and Green Robe Ancestor, with five Fierce Ghost Cities looming in and out of the clouds. A fierce wind howled, and ghosts wailed and deities mourned as a large mass of green clouds danced up and down, continuously attacking. Ni Fangxian was in full defense mode, resisting the enemy's Mana attacks while guarding against the capture of her Primordial Spirit.

Shi Feiyang realized that he had to quickly defeat the Five Lascivious Venerable!

The Five Lascivious Venerable had previously used the Xuan Yin Divine Curtain to attack his enemies, covering the sky. Now, he had condensed it into a tight sphere for defense, hiding within it and seeking a way to break through the encirclement.

Inside the Seven Shaos Xuan Yin Heavenly Curtain were all the accumulation and refinement of eight hundred years of his evil spirit essence. The violent assaults of the ancient Fierce Beasts only caused the darkness to churn and the golden light to flash erratically, but they could not dissipate it.

Shi Feiyang estimated that at this rate, if he could continue the attack for ten to eight days, he might be able to completely shatter the Divine Curtain. However, that would mean dragging the night into elongated dreams.

He pondered over strategies; within the Heavenly Secret Demon God Lamp, there was still the old demon One Light. However, that entity had fused with the Lamp World and could not easily be summoned. Otherwise, the world inside the lamp might risk collapsing, as it was still only at the conceptual level, not physically materialized in a true space-time.

After a short consideration, he instructed the Myriad Cold Centipede to transform into nine green streams, each taking position within the Nine Palaces, exhaling Dan Qi and transforming into nine palaces, splendid with gold and jade.

The Seven Shaos Xuan Yin Heavenly Curtain had the mystery of Inverting Five Elements and confounding Yin Yang. Outsiders could not accurately locate the Five Lascivious Venerable within. At times he would be in the east, sometimes in the north. From the outside, the space looked the size of a couple of acres, but inside, it seemed boundless and unending. Not even the Myriad Cold Centipede could find where the Five Lascivious Venerable was, so it settled in the Nine Palaces, waiting for the chance to strike.

The Five Lascivious Venerable, relying on his Mana, thought that Shi Feiyang couldn't handle him. Once expanded, his Xuan Yin Heavenly Curtain was as solid as a fortress, and he also had various spells at his disposal.

It was hateful that his strongest Colorful World Demon Banner had been destroyed at the start; otherwise, capturing these two enemies today would have been easy!

At present, the most urgent task was to find a way to break through the surrounding Nine Golden Flowers. He recognized that they were the Pure Yang Golden Flowers of an ancient True Immortal, which precisely countered his own methods.

Yet, he still had a final move. If finesse couldn't break through, he'd resort to brute force, condensing the Seven Shaos Xuan Yin Heavenly Curtain to its smallest point and then detonating it open.

After the treasure exploded, it could still be cast and recovered, then sacrificially refined anew.

Even then, doing so would be more formidable than any Heavenly Thunder of both righteous and evil paths, at the very least turning everything within a hundred miles into a ghost realm—and although it detonated in the sky, it would also cause the mountains below to collapse.

Groups of evil spirits falling to the human world would also result in the death of living creatures. My master once warned me not to use such means unless absolutely necessary, to avoid invoking Heavenly Punishment and making future Heavenly Tribulations even more difficult to overcome.

Shi Feiyang used the Nine Golden Flowers along with the Hongmeng Purple Qi to form an array, forcibly confining it to a mere acre in size. He thought that destroying it would not be easy, but finding a way out should not be difficult.

As the Five Lascivious Venerable was darting left and right, jumping up and down, he suddenly saw a resplendent palace appear in the darkness. At the entrance of the palace lay a beautiful young woman sprawled across the staircase, her body barely covered by light blue gauze, which revealed and concealed with each movement.

This fellow was naturally lecherous, and once his lust arose, he would stop at nothing. The Xuanyuan Dharma King knew that Yan Yingmu was not to be trifunded with, and knew that Li Jingxu was not to be trifled with either. He'd been cautioned numerous times, but still wouldn't hold back when his urges took over. Now caught in a tight encirclement, he believed Shi Feiyang could not harm him, and the Myriad Cold Centipede's beauty was simply too irresistible!

In fact, the Myriad Cold Centipede was more than just beautiful. Firstly, she was born from the essence of the world's profound Yin energy, specialized in absorbing all sorts of Yang substances, and secondly, after becoming a demon creature and through various means of supplementing and nurturing, she became increasingly alluring. All males, upon seeing her, were naturally attracted to her, driven by the mutual resonance of vital energies.

The Five Lascivious Venerable, unable to control his own body or restrain his desires, found this beauty utterly delectable. He was instantly captivated, body and soul, only wishing to embrace her immediately to shower her with affection.

That's what he thought, and he acted accordingly, flying towards her to embrace the fragrant, soft figure. He felt utterly content, as if nothing else in the world could be more delightful!

Holding the Cold Centipede tenderly, he said, "My beauty, it's a pity that someone has captured you and refined you into a Demon God. With such loveliness, you have had to suffer so much. From now on, follow me. I will rescue you from that lad, break his magic, take you back to my Five Lustful Colorful World Heaven Palace, recreate your body, and forge a new core. How about that?"

The Myriad Cold Centipede wrapped her arms around his neck, blowing a sweet, cloying fragrance in his face, and said to the Five Lascivious Venerable, "Good brother, if you really can do what you say, rescue me, and free me from this pit of fire, I will truly be eternally grateful."

She kissed him on the face and leaned into his chest, "It's just that my Dan Qi is poisonous; I'm afraid my brother might find it repugnant."

The Five Lascivious Venerable's face was full of lecherous smiles: "Not at all, not at all; I have the Heavenly Five Lascivious Fats on me, which ward off all evil. As long as you are willing, nothing under the heavens can stop us from being together!"

The Myriad Cold Centipede joyfully said: "I have nine incarnations; is it good if they all come and serve my brother together?"

The Five Lascivious Venerable laughed heartily: "That would be splendid! Quickly summon your incarnations over here!"

With a light giggle, eight more gauze-clad beauties flew over from around.

The Five Lascivious Venerable looked and frowned slightly: "While they are beautiful, having nine women who all look exactly the same is just too monotonous and dull."

"Do you want them different, brother? That's easy!"

After saying those words, the Myriad Cold Centipede had the gauze that wrapped her nine incarnations change colors. Originally, they were all green, but now they became red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple, all different colors.

Next, their outfits transformed: there were broad-sleeved robes, long pleated skirts, red Mandarin duck stomachers, blue Joyful Union gauze skirts.

The hairstyles on their heads also varied: there were Noble Princess Consort buns, Flying Immortal buns, peony heads, lily buns, Double Blade buns, and Ingot buns.

Then their facial shapes and features began to change too, with oval faces, melon-seed faces, almond eyes, peach blossom eyes, willow leaf brows, tail-hooked brows, cherry mouths, and stoic mouths.

...

The Cold Centipede's appearance was whatever she desired. Whatever look she wanted, she could have.

Not just appearance; she could change her gender at will too.

The Five Lascivious Venerable, far from feeling any fear, thought he had stumbled upon a treasure. Such a shape-shifting creature, if he could bring her home, how blissful his days would be!

He had discerned that the Cold Centipede was a many-millennia-old demon and knew she had been refined into a Demon God, but he did not care. He was not afraid of powerful demons, only of boring ones.

The fellow, surrounded by beauties and arms full, grinned until his mouth could hardly close.
