Chapter 216: All Cards on the Table! Su Changqing's Terrifying Power!
Chapter 216: All Cards on the Table! Su Changqing's Terrifying Power!
The terrifying aura of the Nearly Emperor's peak swept across the entire arena, causing everyone's expressions to change in an instant.
"Does my junior disciple have such a formidable teacher?"
Seeing the thousand-foot-tall figure, Bo Gu's face turned pale with shock.
The Nearly Emperor's peak, a figure even more terrifying than Li Qingchen's cultivation.
He never expected that his junior disciple's background was so formidable, and there was such a powerful divine consciousness protecting him.
"What a pity, it's only a strand of divine consciousness. If the true self were here, victory would be certain."
"But now..."
Bo Gu sighed inwardly, his brows still tightly furrowed.
Li Qingchen, standing beside him, was startled by Wu Jiuling's divine consciousness.
"Has his cultivation recovered?"
He knew about Wu Jiuling accepting Changqing as his disciple, but he never imagined that Wu Jiuling's cultivation had recovered to its peak.
After a brief moment of distraction, Li Qingchen shouted,
"Daoist Brother Jiuling, don't fight the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness! Without your true self here, you're no match for him!"
"Take Changqing away from here! Without your protection, he won't be able to leave this forbidden zone!"
Wu Jiuling was just a strand of divine consciousness, and even if he was powerful, how long could he persist?
In this short time, he couldn't pose a threat to the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness. It was better to safely take Su Changqing away.
"Scholar Immortal, Forbidden Zone!"
Hearing Li Qingchen's shout, Wu Jiuling surveyed the situation and instantly understood the current state of affairs.
His body was filled with surging energy, isolating the endless darkness outside. He lowered his head to look at Su Changqing,
"Changqing, the Scholar Immortal is right. Let's leave here first and wait for my true self to arrive!"
As he spoke, Wu Jiuling waved his hand and was about to take Su Changqing away first.
But suddenly, Su Changqing anxiously shouted, "We can't wait any longer! The Scholar Teacher will die!"
"I have a way to deal with the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness. Just send me to his side!"
Hearing this, Wu Jiuling's outstretched hand froze, his expression filled with hesitation.
"Daoist Brother, let's go!"
Li Qingchen roared, and the boundless darkness above the Heavenly Spirit seemed to lessen slightly.
"Teacher, help me tear through that chessboard!"
Su Changqing's eyes turned crimson, and he rushed headlong into the boundless darkness, "If I leave today, my Dao heart will never find peace!"
"Trust me, Teacher, take action!"
Seeing Su Changqing about to step into the darkness, the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness grinned viciously, "You're asking for death!"
A torrent of dark power rushed towards him, like a ferocious beast, ready to swallow Su Changqing whole in the next moment.
But suddenly,
Boom!
A pair of gigantic hands descended from above, tearing through the boundless darkness.
The darkness was ripped open, revealing patches of clarity.
"I trust you, be bold and go!"
"Leave the rest to me!"
The hesitation on Wu Jiuling's face lasted only an instant before turning into boundless sharpness.
Su Changqing sprinted forward, while Wu Jiuling protected him like a divine spirit, shattering everything in his path.
"Daoist Brother, you're..."
Seeing Wu Jiuling's boldness, similar to Su Changqing's, Li Qingchen was slightly irritated.
"Haha!"
Wu Jiuling burst into a hearty laugh, gazing at the youth who had charged into the darkness,
"You taught Changqing for three years, so you should know his temperament."
"If I abandon his life and forcefully take him away, this boy will probably never forgive me in this lifetime."
"Furthermore..."
Looking at the determined and fearless youth, Wu Jiuling smiled and said, "Compared to you, I trust him more."
"It's just a mere forbidden zone, today, we'll overturn it!"
Boom!
As his words fell, Wu Jiuling extended his gigantic hand, holding a colossal weapon.
"Slash!"
With a thunderous roar, a dazzling light tore through layer upon layer of darkness, clearing the way for Su Changqing.
In just a brief moment, Su Changqing had already covered more than half the distance.
"You're courting death!"
The Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness's expression turned cold as he looked at Wu Jiuling's divine consciousness, "If your true self were here, I would still respect you."
"Now, a mere strand of divine consciousness dares to challenge me?"
"Suppress!"
The Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness roared, and the surging darkness transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-tall demonic blade, slashing down towards Wu Jiuling.
"Rise!"
As the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness's power leaked out, Li Qingchen's forehead veins bulged, and his boundless righteous energy rose again, pushing back the darkness.
Seeing this, the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness's expression turned cold. As he suppressed Li Qingchen with one hand, he blocked Wu Jiuling's approach with the other.
The terrifying aftermath of the battle shook the surroundings, and Bo Gu and the dark creatures quickly moved away to create a new battlefield.
Only Su Changqing!
The weakest figure followed the path Wu Jiuling had opened, rushing forward.
"This distance isn't enough, we need to get closer to him..."
Su Changqing's eyes flashed with determination, and his speed increased as he gritted his teeth.
However,
In the end, Wu Jiuling was just a strand of divine consciousness.
Facing the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness's fierce offense, his body began to waver in an instant.
But even so, he still caused considerable trouble for the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness.
The most obvious effect was that Li Qingchen, who was about to be completely suppressed, managed to recover.
The light of righteous energy once again occupied a corner of the boundless darkness.
"Scum."
As he was about to dissipate, Wu Jiuling's cold gaze fell upon the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness,
"If my disciple comes to any harm, no matter where you hide, I will find you!"
Without saying anything too harsh, Wu Jiuling's eyes remained fixed on the Lord of the Ten Thousand Mile Wilderness until he dissipated.
"How ridiculous."
The master of the wilderness suppressed the fluttering in his heart, his icy gaze fixed on Su Changqing.
"Brat, let's see who can save you now!"
As he spoke, the torn darkness once again approached, heading straight for Su Changqing.
Li Qingchen, standing by his side, gritted his teeth and shouted, his fingertips forming a seal.
Boom!
In an instant, a gigantic figure appeared behind Su Changqing again.
The figure, dressed in a blue robe, exuded a scholarly aura, and it was none other than the divine imprint left behind by Li Qingchen.
Things had come to this point, and there was no turning back. It was better to trust in Su Changqing!
"Changqing, don't look back, run!"
Li Qingchen's divine imprint roared. He clenched his right hand in the void, and a majestic brush fell into his grasp. Using the void as paper and vast righteousness as ink, he painted the image of ten thousand dragons soaring into the sky!
"Roar!"
One after another, the earth-shattering dragon roars appeared, with fish and dragons dancing together, protecting Su Changqing as he raced forward.
"I want to see how many tricks you have left!"
The master of the wilderness snorted angrily, waving his wide sleeves. Endless darkness filled the sky, and countless dark blades fell like a sudden downpour.
Su Changqing's forehead was covered in sweat as he stared intently at the rapidly approaching master of the wilderness. "Almost there, just a little more!"
He only had one chance to strike. Success meant life, failure meant death; he couldn't afford the slightest carelessness!
Boom, boom, boom!
Terrifying vibrations that could kill Su Changqing a hundred times over resonated from above his heavenly spirit.
The dazzling fish and dragons protecting his body became visibly fewer.
"There's still a thousand zhang distance to go, hold on!"
Su Changqing roared inwardly, his body moving so fast that afterimages appeared.
However, just as Li Qingchen's divine imprint shattered, he was still a short distance away from his final destination.
"The divine imprints of my Scholar and Martial Teachers have dispersed, how can I make it through this last stretch?"
Su Changqing's face turned pale instantly, and his eyes became piercing. "I can only give it my all!"
As he spoke, he turned his palm, and from his Life Palace, he took out a dimly glowing orb.
This orb emitted no aura, but the moment it appeared, the master of the wilderness's expression changed drastically.
A bone-chilling sense of intense crisis surged from his heart like a terrifying wave.
"Damn it, what is that thing?"
Cold sweat appeared on the master of the wilderness's forehead. He looked at Su Changqing, who was only three hundred zhang away, and spoke coldly,
"No matter what it is, you won't have the chance to reach me!"
"Die!"
Boom!
This time, the master of the wilderness used his full strength. The profound darkness emanated endless killing intent and instantly reached Su Changqing.
"Junior Brother!"
From afar, Bo Gu saw this and was furious, roaring out loud.
Both divine imprints of Su Changqing's teachers had dissipated. How could he withstand the master of the wilderness's attack now?
That terrifying vibration, even if only a fraction of it landed on Su Changqing, would undoubtedly be fatal.
At this moment, the master of the wilderness smirked, and the other dark beings laughed out loud.
No one believed that Su Changqing could block this strike.
However, no one saw that Li Qingchen's face showed no panic; instead, he seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief.
"With this distance, he's there, and Changqing will make it."
...
In the blink of an eye, the bone-chilling darkness descended, and Su Changqing let out a sigh of relief, about to completely unlock the seal on the object in his hand.
But suddenly, a deafening roar reverberated in everyone's ears.
Everyone present was stunned and looked towards Su Changqing's direction.
They saw a majestic spear standing in front of Su Changqing, capable of piercing through the heavens.
The spear acted as a barrier, firmly keeping the endless darkness at bay.
The correct version is available on 69shu! 6=9+shu_ba, the first to release this novel.
The person holding the spear stood behind Su Changqing, like a towering giant silently standing guard.
A terrifying aura that shook the heavens and earth emanated from the giant, whose face was obscured.
The atmosphere in the hall became silent for a moment, and then gasps of astonishment filled the air.
"Nearly Emperor's Peak! Another Nearly Emperor's Peak, what the hell is this!"
"Is Nearly Emperor's Peak just a cabbage? One after another, who exactly is this kid?"
"Damn, I feel like we've messed with someone we can't afford to offend."
The beings in the Dark Forbidden Zone gasped in disbelief, their eyes filled with incredulity.
A mere Divine Spirit Realm junior cultivator had the divine imprints of three Nearly Emperor-level powerhouses on him.
Two Nearly Emperors at their peak, and one just a hair's breadth away from the summit, yet they almost overturned the Dark Forbidden Zone with their combined might.
The protection of three supreme figures left everyone breathless.
"Junior Brother... I'm confused too."
Bo Gu was stunned.
What kind of divine junior brother had his teacher taken in, where each one was stronger than the last?
Not long ago, he was worried that Su Changqing would encounter danger in the King Realm. Now it seemed...
It wasn't just a Great Accomplished King, even a Great Sage would have to kneel and bow their heads!
"Who is this?"
At this moment, not to mention the others, even Su Changqing looked at the figure behind him with a puzzled expression.
In his memory, he seemed to have only encountered strong cultivators like Wu Jiuling and Li Qingchen.
Who was this person? And why did he plant a divine imprint within Su Changqing's body for protection?
Su Changqing pondered in confusion, and as Su Nan's divine imprint was activated, it scanned the hall and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
"The Dark Forbidden Zone? Where the hell did this come from?"
No matter how he thought about it, Changqing was just a Divine Spirit Realm junior cultivator. How could he have reached the heart of the Dark Forbidden Zone?
This place was also not a place that a Divine Spirit Realm cultivator could reach.
"Mr. Li, at least give me a heads-up before you take action."
Su Nan's gaze fell on Li Qingchen, and his words, transmitted through sound, carried a hint of helplessness.
He was aware of Li Qingchen's past and had been waiting for him to speak up.
But who would have thought that Li Qingchen would come alone, and Changqing would coincidentally be dragged into this?
"I didn't want to trouble others, but who knew..."
Li Qingchen also felt helpless.
He had come with the determination to die and never thought of returning alive.
But who could have imagined that things would turn out to be so coincidental, and at the critical moment, Changqing and Bo Gu appeared.
"Now we're in trouble."
Su Nan glanced at the lord of the wilderness mountain and frowned, saying, "I'm just a wisp of divine consciousness, and I can't exert much strength."
"Even if I can delay him for a moment, giving you a brief advantage, in the end, I still can't do anything to him."
"Within this dark forbidden zone, the lord of the forbidden zone is almost immortal, and ordinary means can't do anything to him."
Su Nan, who had already joined the darkness, was well aware of how troublesome the lord of the forbidden zone was.
Compared to the dark forbidden zone he had joined, the wilderness forbidden zone was far less in scale.
But even so, the dark immortal characteristic remained, especially for the lord of the forbidden zone.
As the master of the forbidden zone, if it were that easy to kill, Su Nan would have taken action long ago.
"I also know what you're saying, but..."
Li Qingchen sighed, "You should help Changqing first; he should have a way."
"Changqing?"
Su Nan looked at the weakly breathing Su Changqing at his feet, his mouth twitching as he said, "You, a Nearly Emperor, believe the words of a Divine Spirit Realm cultivator?"
Li Qingchen's mouth also twitched, and he helplessly said, "It was Daoyou Wu Jiuling who believed first."
"Damn, has this old man been drinking fake wine?"
Upon hearing this, Su Nan became furious and cursed a couple of times.
Li Qingchen and Su Nan discussed their plan to break the stalemate, and time seemed to pass slowly, but in reality, only a moment had passed.
The lord of the wilderness mountain was initially startled, but he quickly regained his composure.
Dark light flowed in his eyes as he looked at Su Changqing, and he coldly laughed, "It seems your background is very strong. Good, in my forbidden zone, I lack talents like you!"
"Join the darkness!"
The lord of the wilderness mountain didn't even consider Su Nan.
No matter how strong the opponent was, they were just a wisp of divine consciousness and would dissipate completely in a moment.
The current situation was still under his control.
Endless darkness erupted like a flood, rushing towards Su Changqing.
"Brat!"
Su Nan's voice boomed, and a terrifying aura rose,
"I don't know if you can do it, but I'll help you suppress the lord of the wilderness mountain for a moment. You only have one chance to strike!"
"If it succeeds, Mr. Li will be saved. If it fails, I'll use my remaining strength to take you away!"
"Now, make your move!"
Boom! Su Nan's body erupted with terrifying light, and in an instant, his body became infinitely large, as if about to tear apart this world.
"Suppress!"
A divine-like roar echoed, and Su Nan burned his divine consciousness, stomping his foot hard on the end of the long spear.
Boom! The long spear roared like a black dragon, tearing through the endless dark void and instantly arriving before the lord of the wilderness mountain.
"Suppress me? How arrogant!"
The lord of the wilderness mountain laughed in anger, and endless darkness gathered into a pair of gigantic hands, trying to block the black dragon's attack.
But the moment he touched the black dragon, his face changed instantly.
A terrifying force swept through his body, and the gigantic hands shattered with a boom. The black dragon, like a rope, tightly wrapped around him.
"How can a wisp of divine consciousness be so strong?"
The lord of the wilderness mountain was incredulous as he looked at the illusory divine consciousness.
If the divine consciousness was so powerful, how much more so the original body? "Make your move!" Su Nan shouted sternly.
Su Changqing, without hesitation, instantly appeared before the lord of the wilderness mountain,
"Seal, open!"
His fingertips flashed, and the dim light in his palm, like a cicada shedding its shell, gently dropped a layer.
Boom! In an instant, an evil aura that made everyone's hair stand on end rose.
A supreme crimson light forcefully tore through the dark world, illuminating the sky!
Su Changqing's hair stood on end as he looked at the light that was about to shed its shell, and he threw it at the lord of the wilderness mountain, then turned and ran.
"Run!"
Su Changqing shouted anxiously, and Su Nan, with his remaining strength, brought him to Li Qingchen.
The next moment...
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
An indescribably shrill and miserable scream came from the self-proclaimed immortal lord of the wilderness mountain.
The scream was so pitiful that it made everyone's hearts tremble.
The lord of the wilderness mountain, who was initially enveloped in dark light, now had a bright crimson line appearing within his body.
The crimson line, like a terrifying beast, opened its fangs and devoured everything within the lord of the wilderness mountain's body.
"Ahhhh! Get out!"
The lord of the wilderness mountain screamed miserably, and the endless dark power erupted, trying to expel the red light.
But no matter what means he used, even the unyielding demonic aura, were all devoured by the terrifying red light.
This chilling scene made Li Qingchen, Bo Gu, Su Nan, and everyone present shudder.
Li Qingchen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a trembling voice, "Changqing..."
"What is that thing?"
Su Nan and Bo Gu, who were standing nearby, also looked over.
To make a Quasi-Emperor at his peak, and even an immortal lord of the forbidden zone, scream so miserably and lose his fighting power in an instant, what kind of means was this?
Su Changqing looked at the crimson light, his throat moving up and down, and said with a hoarse voice,
"That is a... Heavenly Disaster!"
