Dual Cultivation With My Yandere Disciples

Yin-Yang Annihilation—an art formed from the fusion of thousands of Yin-Yang spells. Its power was as overwhelming as its name would imply.

Its speed was no less terrifying, however.

The distance between Chen Xuan and the Void Tide Leviathan seemed to turn into nothing.

The instant the attack left his hands, it appeared before the colossal sea beast.

Yet the leviathan still managed to react in time.

Before the black-and-white wheel could fully engulf it, its massive tail lashed through the water.

At the same time, its jaws opened wide like a bottomless abyss, attempting to swallow the attack whole and tear it apart from within.

Unfortunately, it quickly discovered that things were not so simple.

As the wheel descended upon its mouth, its innate spatial abilities failed to put an end to its downward trajectory.

A series of cracking sounds echoed across the sea.

Its razor-sharp teeth shattered one after another, followed by the darkness hidden deep within its mouth.

Blood splattered.

The flesh and bones, which could withstand attacks from peak Nascent Soul cultivators, were shattered instantly.

A deafening roar escaped the sea beast as its enormous body crashed into the ocean, flying hundreds of feet across the water before finally coming to a halt.

Pain surged through its mind.

Blood and fragments of shattered flesh spilled from its ruined mouth.

Its eyes turned crimson as its beastly instincts nearly drove it into madness.

However, reason ultimately prevailed.

It understood its situation better than anyone.

The enemy before it stood at the same level as itself.

Combined with the injuries it had already sustained, the outcome of a prolonged battle was already obvious.

Even so, the Void Tide Leviathan didn’t panic.

Although famous for its combat prowess, its biggest strength had never been that.

The reason it had survived countless dangers and reached its current realm was its unparalleled ability to escape.

The moment that thought surfaced, its body exploded apart.

Countless smaller leviathans emerged, scattering in every direction and running away.

This process sounded complicated.

Yet in reality, less than a split second had passed from the moment it received the attack to the moment it chose to flee.

Chen Xuan had no opportunity to stop it.

However, this was within his expectations.

He reacted quickly.

The sword and saber shot from his hands, transforming into streaks of light that descended upon the fleeing clones.

At the same time, a black banner appeared in his hand.

The Myriad Souls Banner fluttered. Thousands of ferocious ghosts poured out.

Their eyes burned with scarlet light, overflowing with hunger for the vitality of living beings.

Under Chen Xuan’s command, they surged toward the escaping leviathans with eerie madness.

Each clone possessed only a fraction of the original sea beast’s strength.

As a result, neither the ghosts nor the magic treasures encountered much resistance.

They were able to tear them apart with relative ease.

The true difficulty lay in their overwhelming number.

Fortunately, with thousands of ghosts working at the same time, the task became far simpler.

Within moments, more than ninety percent of the clones had been destroyed.

A few breaths later, the rest followed.

Following the fate of its other bodies, their flesh was torn apart while their consciousness was devoured by the ghosts.

The turbulent sea finally returned to calm.

Though blood still stained the water and a metallic scent lingered in the air, the battle had seemingly come to an end.

Yet Chen Xuan did not lower his guard.

Activating the Heavenly Insight Eye, he swept his gaze across the surrounding ocean.

He found nothing at first.

But a few moments later, his eyes lit up.

His figure vanished. When he reappeared, he stood before an apparently empty patch of sea.

Without hesitation, he raised a finger.

Several azure droplets condensed at his fingertips and shot forward like arrows.

They appeared ready to sink harmlessly into the water.

However, just before the expected impact was about to arrive...

ROAR!

A furious roar shook the heavens.

The space ahead rippled violently.

It was as though an invisible curtain had been torn open, revealing the scene hidden beneath.

It was the Void Tide Leviathan. Or rather, its strongest remaining clone.

The Primordial Ocean Water had already wrapped around its body, pinning it in place and sealing every avenue of escape.

Even Chen Xuan was slightly surprised by its appearance, having never expected this sea beast to be so cunning.

While the countless clones had drawn away his attention, the strongest among them had concealed itself within spatial distortions, waiting for an opportunity to escape.

If Chen Xuan had not been cautious and possessed the Heavenly Insight Eye, he might have never discovered it.

As he watched the Void Tide Leviathan struggle but be unable to escape the Primordial Ocean Water’s grasp, he couldn’t help but shake his head.

’What a cunning creature. Its reputation is well deserved.’

Although the battle had appeared easy on the surface, Chen Xuan knew that many different factors had aligned in his favor.

The initial sneak attack. The Holy Weapon and Artifact.

Even the Primordial Ocean Water and the Heavenly Insight Eye.

Without any one of them, capturing the Void Tide Leviathan would have been far more difficult.

The creature was both cautious and exceptionally capable.

Any ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator would have struggled to injure it, much less capture it like him.

Thinking this, Chen Xuan relaxed slightly.

The earlier battle had shown that the Void Tide Leviathan indeed possessed spatial powers.

Judging by its strength, it should be more than sufficient to activate the Cross-Domain Teleportation Array.

With a wave of his hand, he drew the sealed leviathan toward himself and stored it away.

Then, he collected the blood around the sea and prepared to leave.

He had no intention of seeking the rumored inheritance.

At least not for now. He had to return to the Tianxuan Domain and resolve everything first.

Unfortunately, Chi Yao’s suspected "Misfortune-Bringing Body" seemed to have affected him.

The moment that thought crossed his mind, the sea below erupted.

A massive whirlpool formed where the Void Tide Leviathan had just stood.

An incredibly powerful devouring force descended from within.

Before Chen Xuan could react, he was swallowed whole.

"Master!" two anxious voices rang out at the same time.

Yet by the time Chi Yao and Huo Ling’er reached his previous location, the whirlpool had already disappeared.

Only the calm waters remained, while even the traces of the battle had faded away.

The two women stood frozen in place, staring at the empty sea and being uncertain of what to do next.
