Chapter 402: Fated Result
Guan Yunchang tried to peel the annoying toys out of his body, but it was too late. Sixty thousand incendiary bombs shone and burst out a million liters of dragon fire essence.
"THIS POWER!"
BOOM BOOM BOOM
BOOM BOOM BOOM
The explosions turned everything in the radius of a kilometer to the sea of flame. Even Miaomiao and nearby spectators were caught on fire.
WHOOM
As if Wei Yuan had predicted it, she activated her new power, which she had recently obtained after she had digested Hundun's Blood.
Assimilation Wall!
This was one of Hundun's power. The fiend of chaos was gifted in assimilating, destroying, gathering, evolving, devolving, twisting, altering, and manipulating multiple untamable berserking energies that contradicted each other.
For example, glaciers that could produce lava fire, ice cubes that could dissolve gold with its extreme temperature, a flame that could freeze the sea, or an invisible iceberg that turned everything around it into the sea of fire but itself, such heaven-defying properties were possible whenever Hundun's techniques were involved.
Wei Yuan had seen how Kishin Douji and Lu Fengxian utilized this ability in her vision. And now, she had the supreme bloodline of the fiend of chaos.
Instead of turning everything chaotic or disarrayed, they applied the chaos element to distort reality and laws of nature. Sometimes, they even turned chaos into the power of creation, temporarily form a new law on top of their realms and domains.
It broadened Wei Yuan's horizons. She had so many inspirations after watching how the top immortal and the supreme god of oni fought while they altered the laws of the universe as they wished.
Now, with the bloodline, Wei Yuan applied what she had learned to reality.
The dark wall in front of her devoured the heat of dragon flame and the explosion. Then, it produced chilling wind to the other side of the wall, soothing Siren City's people instead of harming them.
Just like that, Wei Yuan distorted reality and negated stray bullets from Miaomiao's power with ease.
However, distorting the law of the universe came with a price. Her energy was depleted at a rapid rate, and her blood vessels ruptured.
Yet, Wei Yuan grinned. She gathered the cold wind to herself and inhaled all of them, absorbing the chaotic element Qi, fire dragon essence, and Life Essence from Siren City to her dantian.
Then, another law-twisting power was at work. Her injuries were instantly healed, and she regained her Life Essence back!
Wei Yuan chuckled as she glanced at her current status menu.

While Miaomiao was the embodiment of an energy tank, Wei Yuan also became a terrifying monster with the help of Lu Fengxian and the Hundun's Bloodline.
As Lu Fengxian had said, Hundun's Bloodline was so compatible with her Oni Bloodline to the point that she could easily crystalize all basic elements and three other advanced elements after she had digested everything.
One thing that Wei Yuan could do better than Miaomiao was her Life Essence regeneration rate - Her Life Essence automatically restored itself to the max within 24 hours! If she wanted to, she could refill her energy tank within minutes!
Furthermore...

'Ha! Easy!'
For every Chaos Element Crystal Level increased, her dantian capacity would expand by 10 Trillion Liters!
Even without cultivation resources, Wei Yuan's chaos element continued to alter the nature of her physique and dantian, strengthening her even though she didn't train as hard as Miaomiao!
Wei Yuan couldn't stop smiling. She was proud of her new power, and she didn't feel like she was left behind anymore.
From now on, she could stand by Miaomiao's side as equal. No one could deny her position as his main wife!
'Sorry, Kang Yan. You may have defeated me in a duel yesterday, but I'll be the final victor in the end. I won't lose to anyone anymore.'
...
Meanwhile, Yuan Shaoqing's side hurried and fell back further from the arena. Some daredevils, who were too close to the arena platform, were caught on fire and were left with only white bones.
Wen Chou and Yan Liang dragged their lord further back as they felt the danger of Dragon Fire Element Essence. Even if they had the natural defensive properties of the soul physique, they weren't confident that they could come out unharmed had they gotten devoured by the extreme heat.
None of them noticed the power of chaos from Wei Yuan. They were too busy saving their skin.
As for Liu Xuande and Zhang Yide, while they were retreating from the blast radius, their wide eyes were almost ejected from the sockets because of the shock.
Zhang Yide screamed in disbelief, "This is impossible! That brat is supposed to be a weakling! How!?"
Liu Xuande's breathing became short and rough, but he calmed down after a few seconds. He glared at Miaomiao, who was the source of this mess.
"We should have expected this. That immortal wants Mao Miaomiao dead, yet he resorted to using Yunchang in this fight. It's so obvious that he knew how strong Mao Miaomiao is, and we're the one paying the price for his whatever grudge."
"We shouldn't have had agreed to Yuan Shaoqing's offer! A divine-grade cultivation manual and three divine pills aren't worth it if brother Yunchang dies! We don't even know if Yuan Hua will concoct the pills for us!"
Liu Xuande took a deep breath as he unsheathed his twin swords, "It's my blunder. I should have known when Yuan Shaoqing refused to let his men join this fight. Well, it doesn't matter anymore. Yide, be ready to jump in to help. When I give you the signal, rush in together!"
"O-Okay!"
...
After taking the point-blank explosions, Guan Yunchang's body was tattered. Several gaping holes, half-severed arms, charred face, and burnt armor showed everyone how injured the 8th-stage cultivator was.
Guan Yunchang finally fell on his knees. Yet, he slowly mustered his remaining soul Qi to heal his semi-immortal body.
While Guan Yunchang was recovering from the internal wounds, he swung his Guandao, sending a surprise attack at Miaomiao.
CLANK
The annoying black amethyst tower shield appeared between Guan Yunchang and Miaomiao. Again, it blocked the invisible attack before Guan Yunchang's domain strike reached the target.
Upon the impact, the shield released Qi-Sense Jamming Wave toward Guan Yunchang, but the latter ignored it.
He had nothing else to lose at this point!
Guan Yunchang roared and swung his Guandao 100 times within a breath.
CLANK CLANK
The tower shield blocked 99 of the strikes and countered Guan Yunchang with more jamming waves.
However, one had slipped through!
TING
In a relaxed manner, Miaomiao swung the moon crescent halberd and deflected the attack. He slowly approached the injured man and grabbed the floating shield before him.
WHOOSH
Again, Guan Yunchang sent another barrage of domain strikes. He also glared at Miaomiao's abdomen, trying to detonate Miaomiao's earth element Qi within his dantian.
The Qi detonation trick didn't work. In Miaomiao's dantian, gold element Qi protected him from the remote attack.
Moreover, Guan Yunchang suddenly lost control of his Qi sense. His soul Qi became sluggish as the jamming waves began to take effect.
"Muda Muda! It's futile, Guan Yu! You are no match for me. I'm carrying Lu Bu's fate."
In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yu and Lu Bu fought in front of Hulao Gate, aka Tiger Cage Pass, during the Anti-Dong Zhuo Coalition War.
Guan Yu was no match against Lu Bu and almost fell victim to the God of War. However, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei rode out to save him, turning the honorable duel into a three-on-one fight.
Lu Bu then withdrew from the battle as he couldn't fight the three of them at once. Still, it didn't change the fact that Lu Bu was stronger than Guan Yu.
The fate seemed to be at work as Miaomiao, who had taken the role of Lu Fengxian, crushed Guan Yu with his strength in a duel.
CLANK
CLANK
As Miaomiao had been approaching Guan Yunchang, the latter didn't give up swinging his Guandao.
Miaomiao simply raised the tower shield and tanked the impacts. He received over 1,000 blows within five seconds, but nothing seemed to scratch his skin or his tower shield.
On the other hand, Guan Yunchang's strikes became weaker every time he landed a blow on Miaomiao's shield. The Qi-Jamming stones on the shield were about to seal the remaining Qi in Guan Yunchang's soul dantian.
Guan Yunchang roared again. He gathered the last bit of his soul Qi the Dragon Wind Element Qi from his weapon and swung down.
But Miaomiao disappeared from Guan Yunchang's sight.
The next thing Guan Yunchang felt was the cold scales on Miaomiao's palm from the back of his head.
"I won't be making the same mistake as the original Lu Bu. Goodbye, War God Candidate."
A million liters of Dragon Fire Element Essence entered Guan Yunchang's head. Without releasing his hand, Miaomiao's other hand pressed the switch and detonate the implanted bomb from point-blank!
"STOP!!"
Liu Xuande and Zhang Yide rushed to the platform as they sensed the danger. Both men activated their domain and attempted to interrupt Miaomiao's skill.
BOOM
They were too late. Guan Yunchang's head blew like an exploded watermelon.
Yet, the hands and legs were still struggling to move. Guan Yunchang hadn't died yet.
"Hah? The fuck?"
Miaomiao frowned as he dragged the headless body of Guan Yunchang with him, keeping the distance from Liu Xuande and Zhang Yide.
A few seconds later, Guan Yunchang's head regenerated!
At the same time, Zhang Yide's soul domain expanded and covered the entire platform arena. He thrust the serpent spear in his hands and consecutively stabbed Miaomiao's chest, back, arms, legs, neck, and head a thousand times from 300 meters away!
However, the immortal-grade spear couldn't penetrate the dragon scales and the helmet. It only grazed and left several scratch marks on him.
Zhang Yide didn't give up. Like what Miaomiao had done, the former could also multiply his weapons from one into 1,000!
Liu Xuande caught up later. He threw his swords and bellowed, "Let go of my brother, scoundrel!"
The twin swords suddenly transformed into two giant claymores. One of the swords smashed Miaomiao's tower shield while another one swung down from above.
Miaomiao clicked his tongue and spent his remaining energy to unleash a combo to counter the giant sword.
Death Fortress Sword, Melee Domain
Atomic Slash
Killing Domain, Red Lines of Death
A thousand red lines flashed as Miaomiao destroyed the two giant claymores and Zhang Yide's one thousand spears. However, both of them still pursued him.
Miaomiao glanced to the sky, where Fang Yanxu was, asking for his help with his eyes.
But the immortal was simply looking at them with his arms crossed!
The referee should have stopped the match when Liu Xuande and Zhang Yide interfered with the fight. Yet, he didn't do anything!
"Cliché bastard. So, this is what it feels like when I'm being targeted by multiple villains as a protagonist, eh?"
Miaomiao sighed as he jumped out of the ring and flew back closer to Siren City. He dropped Guan Yunchang on the platform and retreated alone.
Liu Xuande seized Guan Yunchang's body. Meanwhile, Zhang Yide yelled at Miaomiao, "Pussy coward! Come back here and fight like a man!"
Instead of being provoked, Miaomiao rolled his eyes and taunted back, "Speaking for yourself. You gang up on me and you are calling yourself a man? You should have worn some makeup to make it believable since all I'm seeing is a tranny who pretends to be a man."
"YOU!!"
Zhang Yide screamed in anger as he suddenly transformed into a muscular giant. He opened his mouth to bellow, and 100,000 similar polearms appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Miaomiao from all directions.
Then, the spear formation closed in, stabbing Miaomiao from all sides!
This time, some of the spear tips penetrated Miaomiao's scales by three centimeters. Even the Dragon Metal scales weren't enough to defend against Zhang Yide's soul domain attacks.
While Miaomiao was turned into a porcupine, several fighters from Siren City had enough.
The spider monster screeched and charged directly at Zhang Yide, who didn't give up trying to kill Miaomiao.
Kang Yan, Wei Yuan, and Zhao Bao immediately flew toward Liu Xuande and Guan Yunchang with their weapons!
But at the same time, Huang Hansheng also drew his longbow and aimed at Dian Wei. All remaining fighters from Yuan Shaoqing's side jumped on the stage.
Seeing the reaction from the opposite side, the remaining yin slaves and Ma Moxi also rushed in.
