Moreover, the Heavenly Punishment wouldn’t rest until its target was dead. The three enhanced Lightning Palms entered ‘Heavenly Punishment Mode’, and their murderous energy boomed towards the Demon Immortal.

This series of events was quite unexpected.

The dragon-eyed Lady Kunna said, “It worked.”

The aura of the ‘Ancient Nether Chaos Will’ served as the catalyst, transforming the Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation into Heavenly Punishment.

And under the power of the Heavenly Punishment, that black-hole-like ‘Dragon Network Node’ constructed by the Demon Immortal would be completely uprooted and destroyed.

Song Shuhang asked, “Is it over?”

“Yes, it’s over,” the dragon-eyed Lady Kunna said. “This is the first time I did something like this. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to do it, so I was a bit nervous. Fortunately, it worked out.”

“Rumble~”

The Heavenly Punishment Lightning Palm crashed into the black hole, exploding into the most dazzling fireworks display.

Under the constant attacks of the Heavenly Punishment, the area of the ‘Dragon Network Node’ constructed by the Demon Immortal constantly shrunk.

In addition, the dragon-eyed Lady Kunna was on the sidelines to stop any of the Dragon Network’s energy from being supplied to the Demon Immortal.

The Demon Immortal fought alone, steadily losing ground, with his territory continuously getting smaller and smaller.

The outcome was already clear.

The dragon-eyed Lady Kunna slowly said, “For the Dragon Network, that person is like a malignant tumor. I can’t remove him by myself, so I could only resort to making use of external forces. Fortunately, I am now able to remove him without too many problems.”

Scarlet Heaven Sword turned around, and said, “So you had this plan in mind from the very beginning?”

From making contact with Song Shuhang, to becoming friends with him, borrowing the power of Song Shuhang’s Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation, and turning it into Heavenly Punishment. If all of this were her designs since the very beginning, then this ‘Will of the Dragon Network’ was truly scheming.

Scarlet Heaven Sword felt that it wasn’t particularly proficient at dealing with people who had such deep schemes. It felt like if it were to stay together with such people, it might unknowingly end up getting sold by the other party, and yet still continue thinking of them as friends.

It preferred people like Song Shuhang, honest and straightforward.

“Mr. Scarlet Heaven Saber, you’ve misunderstood.” The dragon-eyed Lady Kunna shook her head. “I don’t have such a powerful scheming ability. In fact, most of the things that happened were simply coincidences.”

She had only made contact with Song Shuhang because they were invading human beings from outside the Black Dragon World. Therefore, as the Will of the Dragon Network, it was natural for her to pay attention to them.

But later on, as she continued to stay with Song Shuhang, he simply brought her too many surprises.

The Heavenly Punishment brought about by the ‘dango’s will’, the seed with the Ancient Nether Chaos Will’s aura that he gave her, and his unimaginably fast cultivation speed.

All in all, her plan to draw the energy of the heavenly tribulation and transform it into ‘Heavenly Punishment’ only came after the surprises that Song Shuhang brought her.

In the beginning, she hadn’t even contemplated the possibility of being able to draw the Ninth Stage heavenly tribulation thanks to Song Shuhang.

“Mr. Shuhang truly is a man who brings many surprises,” the dragon-eyed Lady Kunna said. “In return, I shall assist you as much as I can during your Sixth Stage heavenly tribulation”

Song Shuhang remarked, “Isn’t my Sixth Stage heavenly tribulation gone already?”

He had been transcending his heavenly tribulation, but then his heavenly tribulation had ended up becoming a Heavenly Punishment, which then went on to blow up the Demon Immortal, leaving him, the man transcending his tribulation, not knowing what to do.

The dragon-eyed Lady Kunna explained, “No, after the Heavenly Punishment ends, your heavenly tribulation will recondense so that you can transcend it again.”

[Beep~ Fat Ball has granted you the highest authority to the Dragon Network. You now possess 90% of authority over the Dragon Network, second only to Fat Ball’s administrative authority. This authority will last for 20 days. Congratulations on becoming the highest authorized agent of the Dragon Network.]

“???” Song Shuhang.

“This is my compensation to Mr. Shuhang. When you go on to transcend your Sixth Stage heavenly tribulation, you will be able to utilize the energy of the Dragon Network to assist you. As long as you remain in the Black Dragon World, you won’t have to worry about any problems with regard to your heavenly tribulation,” the dragon-eyed Lady Kunna said. “However, I can only grant you this authority for 20 days. If I were to grant you the authority for any longer, your body would be assimilated into the ‘Dragon Network’. At that time, you wouldn’t be able to leave the Dragon Network. Although I really want Mr. Shuhang to stay with the Dragon Network, restricting your freedom wouldn’t be a good thing.”

Song Shuhang said, “So that’s the case, then thank you.”

“You’re welcome. And truly, I should be the one saying thank you.” The dragon-eyed Lady Kunna curtsied at Song Shuhang. “Mr. Shuhang, you should first study how to use the ‘Dragon Network’. By doing so, when the time comes for you to transcend your tribulation, you will be able to proficiently utilize the Dragon Network to your advantage.”

Song Shuhang nodded.

At this moment, Fairy Creation suddenly called out, “Song~ Careful~”

“?” Song Shuhang.

The virtuous lamia instantly appeared, and protected Song Shuhang.

The large golden brush in Fairy Creation’s hand moved at the same time, and a string of scholarly runes formed a mirror in front of Song Shuhang.

And in the same instant, Scarlet Heaven Sword flashed into Song Shuhang’s hands.

The Combined Magical Treasure, which was no longer able to maintain its ‘All-Destroying Giant’ form, split apart into two sets, and then moved to protect Li Yinzhu and the demonic hamster.

“Clang!”

A stick-sized ‘demonic god pillar’ appeared out of thin air, crashing towards Song Shuhang’s face, but it was blocked by the scholarly mirror.

The demonic god pillar ricocheted to the ground, and plunged into it.

The mirror constructed from scholarly runes shattered and dissipated.

Song Shuhang asked, “Was it the Demon Immortal?”

Had the other party finally flown into a rage from humiliation, and chosen to personally come out and take back some face?

But then why did the Demon Immortal target him the moment he came out? Wasn’t the other party’s real enemy the ‘Will of the Dragon Network’ next to him?

“Hehehe, you were actually able to block my blow. Despite being a mere bug, you made my fingers itch a bit when I tried to crush you.” The deep voice of the Demon Immortal boomed.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword replied, “Hehehe… Your fingers might not only itch, but they might also start to bleed.”

Song Shuhang said, “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, by replying like that, aren’t you accepting his claim of me being a mere bug?”

“Song~ Bug~” Fairy Creation sang.

The virtuous lamia immediately said, “Despite being a mere bug, you made my fingers itch a bit when I tried to crush you!”

“…” Song Shuhang.

“Don’t be afraid, Mr. Shuhang. I will deal with him.” The dragon-eyed Kunna patted her chest, and said, “Although I am not good at fighting, this is my territory.”

“The other party is at the Immortal Realm. How troublesome,” Senior White’s clone said weakly. He then struggled to rouse himself up. “Shuhang, give me a sword.”

Meteor Sword had gone with his main body into the Ninth Stage Heavenly Tribulation Realm, and as the enemy was an existence at the Immortal Realm, disposable flying swords would hardly be able to do much.

Song Shuhang thought for a while, and then stretched out his hand towards Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword. “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, do you want to try cooperating with Senior White?”

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword wanted to refuse. After all, although it was a sword, it excelled in saber intent.

But… In the face of the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯, it agreed to Song Shuhang’s proposal.
