Chapter 208: The Arrival and the Netherworld's Arrival (Part 1)
Chapter 208: The Arrival and the Netherworld's Arrival (Part 1)
The bitter winter gradually faded, and the spring breeze gently arrived.
The warm spring wind dispersed the deep cold, and the snowstorms ceased as the sky occasionally cleared up.
Along the official road, the ancient tree branches that had been covered by winter snow for an entire Dongtian began to sprout new buds, emerald green and delicate, greedily absorbing the air between heaven and earth.
On the branches, the finest spring rain that had not yet fallen washed and accumulated hanging droplets.
Whoosh!
The carriage wheels rolled over, splashing the muddy water on the ground and scattering it in all directions.
As the first carriage passed by, a steady stream of horses and carriages followed, leaving two neat tracks on the soft ground where the snow had not yet completely melted.
Li Che sat cross-legged in the carriage, approaching Dao City, and the carriage no longer jolted.
"We've reached the Lingnan Dao City area..."
The reins were pulled, and the dragon horse neighed.
The caravan's head escort shouted to the rear, informing everyone of their location.
After nearly a month and a half of rushing at full speed, the group had gone from initial excitement to numbness.
Along the official road, they had seen nothing but snow-covered landscapes, which had become extremely boring.
As the head escort finished speaking, the curtain on the carriage where the children were gathered was suddenly lifted.
Several small radish-like heads popped out.
"Wow!!!"
Gong Yuanliang and Gong Yangxiu were surprised.
"What's so exciting? We've just reached the Dao City area, and we're still far from the city itself. It's at least five hundred li away," Tie Shancai scoffed.
Xixi also poked her head out, looking into the distance.
On both sides were endless fields. With the melting winter snow and the arrival of early spring, the warm breeze brought moisture, and many farmers were plowing the fields with their oxen, turning over the frozen muddy ground.
Xixi jumped out of the carriage and landed on top of it.
With her martial arts cultivation reaching the ninth transformation of blood exchange and attaining the perfect level, her movements were extremely agile and nimble.
Standing on the carriage roof, the spring breeze blew, fluttering the red corners of her small red diaper and the red ribbon tied around her hair.
Xixi stood with her hands on her hips, a bright smile on her face, revealing her white teeth, and her mood was delightful.
Finally, they were about to reach Dao City!
She had heard that Elder Grandpa wanted her to prepare well for the selection of the last personal disciple of the Sect Master and Great God.
Xixi was delighted, as it meant there would likely be another fight.
She could set off fireworks again!
Although during this time, Tie Shancai had always accompanied her in setting off fireworks.
However, after a few times, Xixi felt it was not as fun when she couldn't use her full strength.
She got bored.
It wasn't fun anymore.
It was only interesting when someone provoked Xixi, allowing her to let loose and unleash her full power!
Hiss, hiss, hiss—
Tie Shancai, Yun E, and the little fat boy, Zhou Peng, also appeared on top of the carriage.
The little rascals stood there, basking in the gentle breeze as the carriage slowly moved forward.
"We're finally back in Dao City. In Jin Guang Fu... it always felt dangerous and unsafe... it was so scary that it killed my appetite," Zhou Peng said, holding a white steamed bun and taking a bite, finishing half of it in two bites.
Jin Guang Fu City gave Zhou Peng and Yun E an indescribable sense of danger.
Inside the carriage.
Li Che sat quietly, his body filled with powerful qi and blood, focused on rushing forward during this time.
He had immersed his entire being in cultivation.
Now, he had reached five Divine Auras.
These five Divine Auras were extraordinary, as they were refined from his heart using the Ten Thousand Transformations Dragon Elephant technique and from his golden lungs using the Ten Thousand Dragons Subduing Gods technique.
Li Che twisted these two Divine Auras together, like a thick hemp rope.
They were incredibly thick, and their mysterious fusion resulted in a power far beyond that of ordinary Divine Auras.
Li Che had secretly allowed the White King of Hell, Xue Dufu, to release his Divine Aura for a confrontation.
Xue Dufu, whom Li Che had fed and nurtured to reach thirty Divine Auras, had his Divine Aura clash with Li Che's. However, after just three collisions, it was blasted apart.
Li Che did not retain much of the Soul Binding from the two Corpse God Envoys of the Corpse God Sect. Instead, he fed them to Xue Dufu.
As for the three assassins from the Hunter Pavilion, they were assigned to the Black King of Hell to control.
However, there was a limit to the number of souls that could be bound.
Currently, Li Che could probably bind seven Divine Essence True Men at the level of Great Masters or Soul Core Transformation.
Any more, and they would likely lose control. Once they lost control, they could be given to the White King of Hell to devour, allowing him to grow stronger.
Over the past month and a half, Li Che's cultivation had not increased too quickly.
The main reason was the lack of intense battles, preventing him from utilizing the maturity of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit to enhance his cultivation.
Li Che also found it strange that his cannon was ready...
He was fully prepared to hunt dragons.
However, no dragons appeared.
Not a single one. The dragon girl's mother from the Ji Hai Association seemed indifferent to his death, not even having the slightest thought of revenge.
Li Che shook his head slightly, not feeling too disappointed.
After all, it was best to avoid any disturbances during the journey, and peace and safety had always been what Li Che desired.
However, Li Che did not relax, as they were about to reach Dao City, and at this critical moment, the other party might easily find an opportunity.
Perhaps, they were looking for this opportunity?
Li Che had a very fulfilling month and a half in the carriage.
The entire carriage was packed, with all his divine nature clones except for the shocking sacred one, diligently cultivating.
And Li Cheng himself was also working hard to recruit the Temple Deity from the Heaven-Touching Face into the Pure Heart Divinity.
The Law of Heaven Earth Spirit Brilliance True Ape Method had already been cultivated by Li Cheng to the Divine Foundation Realm.
It was mainly through the transformation of the Pure Heart Divine Foundation.
However, the Temple Deity's will within the Heaven-Touching Face was extremely powerful, far beyond the capabilities of the Fire Eye Xuan Jing Ling Yuan Temple Deity.
After all, this was the will of the Four Divine Temple Deities, and after half a month of this.
Li Cheng felt that he had only made it halfway through.
Additionally, Li Cheng was also practicing carving inside the carriage and studying the Tang Clan's Organ Beast Annals given by Tang Sanjia.
He was drawing the Sixth Rank Superior Organ Beast, the Blood Yang Nine Divine Vajra Ape, and making improvements to it.
"To create a Sixth Rank Superior Organ Beast, the materials are the most difficult to find. A large quantity of Sixth Rank Superior Blood Yang Wood is required... along with various rare divine minerals."
Li Cheng exhaled.
The materials were hard to come by.
However, he was at least a second-class guest minister in the Heaven Observation Bureau, and with Shangguan Qinghong also being recommended to the Dao City Heaven Observation Bureau to work alongside Lu Yao, once she had settled in, he could ask her about it.
As for the Martial Saint's ultimate techniques.
Regarding the Primordial Heaven Heaven-Crushing Staff, Li Cheng felt that with some more time, he would be able to master it to the grandmaster level and grasp the ultimate killing move of the Heaven-Crushing Staff.
The Thousand Mountains Lone Blade and Lingxu Eight Auspicious Steps, these two ultimate Martial Saint techniques, Li Cheng had also successively mastered to the great achievement level.
Especially the Lingxu Eight Auspicious Steps, now Li Cheng could take three Auspicious Steps, and he was getting closer to the grandmaster level of four Auspicious Steps.
"My martial talent... is indeed formidable."
Li Cheng couldn't help but praise himself.
He stretched lazily, his whole body's tendons and bones chiming, emitting crackling sounds.
Li Cheng took a piece of spiritual wood and began carving.
Suddenly.
Li Cheng's hand that held the carving knife suddenly tightened.
The Heavenly Chessboard trembled.
Suddenly, he sensed an extremely powerful and terrifying aura!
From dozens of li away, it burst through the air at an incredible speed, rapidly shooting towards him.
The wind and lightning intertwined.
As if resonating with heaven and earth, the person's aura was so strong that it seemed to merge with the heavens and earth.
Li Cheng narrowed the range of the Heavenly Chessboard to within fifty li.
Therefore, when this person entered the fifty li range, he immediately sensed it.
"Expert!"
"Great Expert!"
Li Cheng's eyes shone brightly, his blood and energy surging, the two types of divine aura twisted into one, like a dragon shaking.
"A Heaven and Man as One Realm's Supreme Grandmaster!"
Li Cheng sensed for a moment and came to a conclusion.
He slowly exhaled.
His eyes opened and closed, revealing a solemn expression.
Very strong...
This was the first time Li Cheng had seen a true Heaven and Man as One Realm Supreme Grandmaster.
Previously, the Six Ministries Corpse God Will summoned by Yuan Vajra was also at this level, but it had not descended before being smashed away by Li Cheng.
So, this was the first real encounter.
"Very strong... I feel the pressure..."
"The Heaven and Man as One Realm's Supreme Grandmaster, with thirty-six Divine Auras and three hundred and sixty Heavenly Orifices..."
"The human body's meridians and orifices are interconnected, linking heaven and earth, drawing heavenly energy to refine the body's great pill, gathering innate energy..."
Li Cheng's eyes flashed, every muscle in his body slightly trembling, filled with intense battle intent, surging from his chest.
A moment later, he returned to calmness.
The convoy continued on its journey, tearing through the slightly chilly spring rain, speeding along the gradually widening official road.
After traveling continuously for more than a month, the Jiao Horses were still full of energy, needing to release their energy through running; a journey of this distance was nothing to them.
The convoy hadn't traveled far.
Suddenly, the Jiao Horses anxiously stopped, not daring to step on the ground.
The spring rain seemed to freeze.
The gentle breeze blew, and the carriage curtain was suddenly lifted.
Jiao Shaqiu leaned forward, slowly stepping out of the carriage, his divine nature stimulating the airflow, howling and swirling, causing Jiao Shaqiu's ancient robe to flutter.
The carriage driver, Nie Yang, sitting on the carriage shaft, also extended his hand to grasp the bronze sword hilt wrapped in torn cloth, his eyes sharp, sword intent bursting forth, battle intent overflowing.
"He's here."
Sitting next to Nie Yang, Li Chengzhou was shocked by the airflow emanating from the two men, his face turning red, and he quickly extended his hand to press down on his bamboo hat.
The next moment.
Li Chengzhou seemed to stare blankly at the distant sky.
There, the spring rain seemed to part like a stage curtain, slowly pulling to the sides.
A figure, surrounded by divine aura and blood essence, countless blood essences exploding, like a blood-colored electric dragon, covering the figure, flying through the air.
The extremely powerful martial will seemed to darken the sky, making it difficult to see any light.
In just an instant, Li Chengzhou felt his vision go dark, almost fainting from the impact of the martial will.
However, a hand landed on his shoulder, and he saw his taciturn carriage driver, with his hair and beard flying, pat him, and Li Chengzhou felt all the pressure disappear.
"This is the Heaven and Man as One Realm's Supreme Grandmaster's martial will..."
Nie Yang briefly introduced.
"Don't look directly, you're still too weak."
Li Chengzhou obediently lowered his head.
The next moment, a thunderous sound of breaking through the air rang out, and the figure, surrounded by blood essence transformed into an electric dragon, howled as it arrived.
Within the carriage.
Three powerful figures, Wang Kuyi, Lu Yao, and Zhu Chaoyang, emerged and stood atop the carriage's roof.
Li Cheng also lifted the curtain and stepped out, taking a seat on the carriage's shaft.
Whoosh!
The gusting winds caused a great commotion on the official road, creating a fierce gale!
High above, a figure with vital aura swirling like a whip descended rapidly, moving at an incredible speed. There seemed to be an invisible connection between him and the heavens, forming a unique resonance.
As the figure landed, an invisible flow of energy spread out and gradually dissipated.
Elder Jiao Shaqiu stood with his hands behind his back, his withered face like old wood, bearing a solemn expression.
"The eighth on the Inner Gate's true transmission top ten list, Wei He..."
Elder Jiao's gaze fell upon the robust figure at the forefront.
The newcomer was tall and sturdy, clad in a dark blue robe, his well-built muscles exposed.
"Elder Jiao."
Elder Jiao nodded slightly, his gaze shifting to Wei He: "You seem to be a true disciple of Elder Ji, right?"
Wei He clasped his fists and smiled, "Indeed. I am a true disciple under the Fourth Elder, and I've been ordered to welcome the young lady into Dao City."
The people in the surrounding carriages also poked their heads out, curious to see what was happening.
However, as the words fell...
A sharp intensity suddenly flashed in Elder Jiao's eyes.
E
"Young lady? Who gave you the right to call her that?!"
A powerful aura erupted from behind Elder Jiao, and dazzling golden light blossomed, blinding and dazzling.
There seemed to be a hint of a return to the golden body transformation, and a mighty divine pressure descended.
Nie Yang also landed beside Elder Jiao, his hand on his sword, ready to draw it.
Countless dazzling sword lights blossomed behind him.
The atmosphere instantly turned tense and murderous.
W
In the carriage beside them.
Li Cheng's gaze also fell upon Wei He, his expression calm and unperturbed.
"Young lady?"
This seemed to be an attempt to recruit Xixi into their sect prematurely.
But...
Xixi had come to Dao City not to become a disciple of an elder.
