Chapter 657
I leapt at the Demon God as it screamed and used the Fourth Law of Cultivation: Domain.I tapped into the world, into my domain, using everything present to bolster the Tree of Life for just a split second, just long enough for it to be able to use its roots to bind the Demon God in another quasi-cage. There was no time to build a cage from nothing. I took what was already there: the roots, the broken stone columns half buried in soil, the metal plates our engineers had laid, the very weight of the air under the Tree’s crown.I told them to act together for a single purpose. The roots responded first, shooting out in thick coils that wrapped the Demon God at waist, chest, and throat. Smaller roots braided themselves into bands around wrists and ankles. The broken columns rose at my push and wedged into the gaps to give the roots something rigid to brace against. The plates slid under the Demon God’s feet and then up along the calves to keep it from finding ground to push against. The

The Demon God roared.I leapt forward, meeting him halfway because distance favored his throws. At close quarters, the First Law helped me as much against his strikes as it did against his ranged assaults.He swung, and I slipped inside the elbow and pressed the flow of his Qi apart, so the strike arrived without force.I answered with a palm to the ribs that drove him half a step sideways. He stepped in again without giving ground and smashed his forehead into mine. Lights flashed across my vision, and I tasted blood. I dropped my weight and caught his knee with mine. The shock ran up my thigh painfully, but it bent his stance.We traded like that, fast and ugly, beating each other bloody and blue as we crashed across the battlefield.Every time we hit, the ground sank and burst, sending clods and grit and broken bone outward. I flared the First Law to spare those I could reach by splitting off heat and shock, but I could not catch everything.Two soldiers died under our feet when a

I hurled more bombs; the soldiers, inspired, did the same. I took two from my belt, snapped the seals with my thumb, and let them roll off my fingers with a small push of Chi to send them in a shallow arc under the Demon God’s ribs, where the roots had already chewed gaps in the hardened flesh.Detonations thudded like hammers against wet clay. The nearest squads tracked my throw and shifted their aim.The air filled with alchemical smoke, the kind that carried purification agents in a dense mist. Soldiers coughed but kept their timing. A line of formation flags snapped, and three arrays lit in sequence, their beams cutting vertical channels through the smog to keep visibility around the forward medics.The Demon God screamed in pain, but it finally managed to cut through the roots and fell to the ground.The sound of its body hitting the earth was not just impact. It was the crack of several roots giving at once, the groan of others tearing partway through their own fibers as they he

The dragon rolled and tried to slip out of Zhang’s grip by spearing straight up. He matched the rise, shifted the gravitational vector sideways, and swung its head down like a weight at the end of a rope. It hit the air it had just heated and hissed as the heat licked its own muzzle. I rode the swing, landed on the back of the skull, and drove my fist into the ridge where the jaw muscles anchored.The impact sent a shock through my elbow. The dragon’s mouth opened full in reflex. I dumped three more pills into the throat and followed them with a short burst tuned to pop the miasma pockets just ahead of them.Each pocket burst left a dark smoke that tried to reverse flow back into the tissue. I slapped seals above the openings to force the flow out through the mouth and nostrils.Zhang gripped its neck, using his gravity Chi to wrangle it, and I hammered it until it calmed. The Azure Dragon’s eyes had been glassy and focused on orders a moment before; now they blinked unevenly as the p

The first handful were the standard white purification pills that triggered on high miasma concentration. I flattened them with Qi, slid them between his teeth during a cough, and guided them past the tongue. They dissolved faster in the mucus there and released threads that climbed toward the sinuses and down along the esophagus.The Black Tortoise tried to clamp his jaw. I set a wedge of pressure at the hinge and kept the gap open a finger width more than he wanted. My Chi traveled with the pills, mapping blockages and pools.The miasma volumes in Xuanwu felt like static regions with no proper exchange, the way he’d become under the Demon God’s control. I pushed into those regions and opened narrow paths toward the mouth and nose where my seals could catch the discharge.As it resisted, I snatched a few more bombs already lit and stuffed them into the beast’s mouth, making it roar in pain as explosions tore its neck and opened space for more pills. I didn’t toss them deep; I set the
