Chapter 244: The Divine Seed and the Supreme Automaton, a Double Overclocking Transformation

Boom!!!

A terrifying punch seemed to shake the heavens and the earth.

Scorching hot energy burst forth in an instant, and tens of thousands of mechanical seals flashed into brilliance simultaneously, emitting an extremely dazzling light.

The terrifying high-temperature energy, akin to melting gold and jade, poured out from the towering five-meter-tall beast, resembling an angry ocean and an erupting volcano.

It surged out from the intricate and terrifying shell assembled from countless parts.

Like nine blood-red suns hanging high in the sky, scorching the atmosphere.

The ground collapsed with a loud boom, and the entire area of the main camp, covered in frozen soil, seemed to boil like a raging river, churning endlessly.

The terrifying heat spread in ripples, accompanied by howling hurricanes, and the earth cracked and mountains crumbled.

The accumulated snow and ice on the ground instantly melted, then evaporated, forming clouds that churned like coiling dragons.

Blood God Nine Sun Golden Ape!

The moment this colossal creature appeared, it unleashed a fierce punch, slamming down with such force that it seemed to flip the entire camp upside down.

In the distance, Long Tai stood frozen, his body trembling uncontrollably. The raging winds howled and swept over him, and the waves of mud and stones battered his body, causing him to stagger.

"Automaton!"

"It's an automaton!"

"A Tang Clan automaton!"

A deep and hoarse voice erupted from Long Tai's throat.

His mouth was dry, and his blood seemed to freeze within him.

His back prickled, and his hair stood on end.

Six blood-red seals rotated continuously within the core of the automaton...

The oppressive and suffocating pressure of the terrifying rank made it difficult for Long Tai to even breathe. Like a bursting river, he couldn't even muster the strength to move a finger.

This Netherworld...

This Bull Demon!

A six-seal automaton, equivalent to the rank of the Five Elders, a terrifying weapon of war!

Just one step away from the Supreme Automaton, it possessed the formidable power of the first realm of the Divine Warrior.

The Netherworld...

They actually brought out such a terrifying existence to kill the General!

Long Tai's eyes turned crimson...

An absolute killing move!

How could anyone survive this?

The Netherworld's Bull Demon was too cautious, too despicable, and too cunning!

If the Bull Demon had unleashed this Five Elders' automaton from the start, You Liqing would have never dared to fight back and would have only thought of escaping.

Even the severely injured You Liqing, with his Divine Seed, could have withstood one attack before escaping.

But now, with the injuries inflicted by the Sect Master's Consort Xuan Qisha's Locking Spirit Talisman and the attack from the six-seal automaton...

That's right!

It was an ambush!

The Bull Demon used a six-seal Five Elders' automaton to launch a sneak attack!

How could there be such despicable beings in this world!

Long Tai's eyes turned bloodshot, and his entire body was swept by a raging hurricane. His Primordial True Energy surged, and he gripped his Crocodile-Head Axe, his body suddenly straightening, his beard flying in the wind, as he looked at You Liqing, who had been punched into the ground by the automaton.

With a loud roar, the Crocodile-Head Axe slashed through the air currents, and his body trembled, with countless vital energy erupting as the Primordial True Energy coiled like an angry dragon.

Long Tai did not retreat; instead, he surged forward, dragging the axe, and stomped heavily, causing the ground to tremble like a whip. He rose against the raging winds.

The raging vital energy seemed to burst forth like the sun.

This Primordial Great Grandmaster, who had reached the realm of Heaven-Man Unity, pushed his power to the extreme in this moment.

"Kill!!!"

A long, piercing roar echoed as the Crocodile-Head Axe suddenly lashed out, striking the automaton.

However, the automaton's eyes glowed red, and within its core, six large rotating seals. Its hair flew wildly, and behind it, one after another, Five Elders' Divine Crystal was crazily devoured, absorbing its divine essence.

Amid the clanging and clacking sounds...

The automaton, under Li Cheng's mental control, suddenly pushed out with a flat, horizontal strike.

It was like swatting a fly.

Long Tai, the Primordial Great Grandmaster, was instantly shattered into countless energy currents by the flat push, exploding in all directions.

Pfft!!!

Every pore on his body spewed fresh blood.

There was no resistance; it was impossible to block it.

This was a Five Elders' rank automaton, reaching the combat power of the Divine Warrior.

It couldn't be blocked; it was simply impossible!

"General!!!"

Bang!

Long Tai felt his bones shatter, his muscles tear, and his veins rupture. His skin split open, revealing the flesh beneath.

His face contorted strangely, as if crushed by an unstoppable mountain.

His entire body underwent a transformation, and behind him, the powerful force poured out, creating ripples and waves that spread for over ten zhang.

After a moment of stillness, the powerful recoil erupted.

In an instant!

Long Tai's Crocodile-Head Axe flew out of his hand, and his entire body was smashed and flung into the air, creating ripples and waves of white foam in the air.

With a loud thud, he flew dozens of zhang, crashing into the barrier created by the Heaven and Earth Chessboard.

Thick fog swirled, and Long Tai spat blood, falling to his knees on the ground.

His bloodshot eyes stared at the Bull Demon, fixated on the enormous, towering figure emitting a bright light.

Hot blood spilled from his mouth and nose, dripping onto the ground.

"General..."

Long Tai's heart filled with sorrow, knowing that today... the situation was likely beyond hope.

The Netherworld's calculations were endless, one after another, almost sealing off all of You Liqing's escape routes.

Even a six-seal automaton had been brought out!

It was known that even during the Tang Clan's heyday, a six-seal automaton was an extremely precious object.

Not to mention the difficulty of manufacturing it, but just the amount of Divine Crystal required to activate a six-seal automaton was enormous.

Without the backing of a powerful force, it was impossible to deploy an automaton.

Long Tai, at this moment, felt a deep fear of the Netherworld.

But...

Long Tai staggered to his feet, his eyes filled with blood.

"General!"

Long Tai, without his Crocodile-Head Axe, clenched his fists, his beard bristling, and roared.

Even covered in blood, he continued to roar and charge forward.

He could face Su Huaili's death with calmness.

But You Liqing... this General he had followed for so many years, he couldn't bear to see him die.

The Netherworld...

Perhaps, when You Liqing had targeted the Netherworld, he had already caught their attention.

Ji Hai Hui died, Su Huan Li died...

Now, You Liqing is going to die too!

Long Tai, driven by madness, charged towards You Liqing, his body erupting with blood.

...

...

Qingniao's heart had long sunk into the depths of despair.

When that terrifying automaton appeared, she had already lost all hope.

As You Liqing was punched into the ground, Qingniao's heart died completely.

"Netherworld..."

Qingniao's eyes were like a stagnant pool, devoid of any emotion.

She gripped her longbow, her slender and straight legs moving swiftly through the dense fog.

Her long fingers, calloused from years of practice, were poised to draw the bow.

The bowstring creaked, and the moonlight shone on the fully drawn bow.

Countless green streams of light flowed out from the bow.

Whoosh! Qingniao screeched, spreading her wings and flying towards the incoming streams of light, colliding with them at high speed!

"Horse Face!"

Tears streamed down Qingniao's lifeless eyes.

In her mind, she recalled scene after scene, each one showing You Liqing pulling her out of a pile of corpses in a small town in Jeju.

At that time, she was dazed, and all she could see were dead bodies.

You Liqing, clad in golden armor, had pulled her back from the brink of death. To her, he was like a ray of sunshine dispelling all the darkness in her life.

He gave her hope and belief.

Later, she followed You Liqing in her martial arts training and cultivation.

She displayed her innate talent as a divine archer and received special training she needed. Gradually, she became his trusted aide...

Even though Qingniao admired You Liqing, even though she knew that his heart already belonged to someone else, and that person was someone she could never hope to reach.

But she didn't care, and she didn't have the heart to compete.

What right did she have, someone who had crawled out of a pile of corpses, to love someone who was like her sun? She didn't have the right.

She could only live in darkness forever.

But now...

The person she liked seemed to be dying!

So she...

Wouldn't live either!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Countless arrows flew out like a dragon, forming a barrage that blocked all the paths of the Bodhi Dragon Fang Dart, finally exploding in mid-air!

Flames roared, and the blast of energy surged! Qingniao felt an unprecedentedly massive pressure.

The other's divine archery...

No, it should be called divine mechanical archery, and it made even her, a Primordial Great Grandmaster-level divine archer, feel the pressure! She even felt a sense of hopelessness.

It made her doubt the value of the divine archery she had painstakingly cultivated for so many years.

What was the point...

Of it all!

Bang! But at this moment, Qingniao's heart had already gone numb, and she gave up trying to outshoot Horse Face.

Because she knew she couldn't kill Horse Face.

Horse Face was nearly a hundred meters away, shrouded in thick fog. Although she could determine Horse Face's location based on the direction of the Bodhi Dragon Fang Dart, killing him was too difficult!

Now, Qingniao had a clearer goal!

Bang! Primordial True Energy raged behind her, as if the green phoenix had spread its wings.

Her slender legs kept tapping in the mist, quickly retracing her steps!

"General!"

Qingniao bit her lip.

She clenched her five fingers, gripping a bloodstained arrow, and swiftly nocked it on her divine bow. All her essence, energy, and spirit surged into that arrow.

She broke through the fog, rushing against the cascading hurricane towards the direction where You Liqing had been smashed into the ground!

...

...

Li Cheng wore the Bull Demon mask, and his elastic ink shirt was torn, revealing his incredibly muscular physique.

His bulging muscles rippled like angry dragons.

The Thunder Magnetic Body technique activated, and his entire body floated in mid-air silently, without stirring any vital energy or divine essence.

The five-meter-tall Blood God Nine Sun Golden Ape, like a colossal beast, exuded a fierce and terrifying aura.

Li Cheng was very satisfied with the terrifying power of this Six Seal Automaton.

It was even stronger than he had imagined.

With just one punch, You Liqing was slammed into the ground, and that punch... directly sealed his fate.

Although the automaton's consumption was much greater than he had expected.

Activating this Six Seal Automaton required five Divine Crystals of the Five Elders rank. Once the divine essence within the crystals was exhausted,

the automaton would stop functioning and could not be reactivated unless the Five Elders' Divine Crystals were swiftly replaced.

However, the power unleashed was undoubtedly on par with a Divine Warrior, even if it was only the first realm.

You Liqing was currently at the Three Flowers Realm, and he had also been severely injured by Xixi's teacher, the Divine Carving Ridge Grandmaster of the Heavenly Origin Sect.

This was Li Cheng's best opportunity!

Li Cheng floated in the air, his eyes glowing with faint lightning beneath the Bull Demon mask.

Dragon Elephant Heavenly Energy surrounded his body, and although he only had one strand of Dragon Elephant Heavenly Energy, it gave him strength comparable to a Three Flowers Realm Great Grandmaster.

The Three Flowers Returning to the Origin True Energy was incredibly powerful.

But the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Energy could withstand it.

This gave Li Cheng a pleasant surprise.

Most importantly, the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Energy... could become even more formidable as Li Cheng grew stronger!

His gaze swept over.

He looked at Long Tai, whose body was covered in blood and was slowly advancing against the hurricane, and at Qingniao, who was channeling all her essence, energy, and spirit into a single arrow.

"Truly loyal."

Li Cheng spoke softly.

The next moment, his gaze fell on the ground, which had caved in with a loud boom, creating a deep pit filled with mud.

The Golden Ape had smashed the ground to pieces, and the earth continued to rumble!

Suddenly, Li Cheng's eyes narrowed.

He saw a horrifying amount of vital energy surging out like a bursting dam, raging and rolling like a torrent!

Bang, bang, bang, bang! The ground exploded!

It was as if a blazing golden sun had risen, radiating a dazzling aura of vital energy!

Amidst the shattered ground, a boiling blood energy rose like a raging inferno!

A beam of blood-red light burst forth, quickly shooting out from the ground.

You Liqing! Half of his body was smashed to pieces, and at this moment, his entire person seemed to be burning, with two blood-colored vortices appearing on his back, containing two divine seeds that resembled ceramic pottery covered in cracks, ready to explode at any moment!

Li Cheng stood in midair with his Thunder Magnetic Body, his gaze intense.

"The Divine Seeds in the Eight Mystic Gates..."

"But at this moment, You Liqing has completely Overclocked, igniting the Divine Seed within one of the Eight Mystic Gates..."

Now that Li Cheng had started to learn about Divine Seed Martial Arts, he naturally had some understanding.

You Liqing...

He had cultivated two Divine Seed Martial Arts and even opened two of the Eight Mystic Gates in his body, planting two Divine Seeds within them.

The last time, when facing Xuan Qisha's Locking Spirit Talisman, You Liqing had only Overclocked one seed.

But this time...

You Liqing seemed to have accepted his inevitable death, so he held nothing back.

He directly detonated two Mystic Gates Divine Seeds!

Gaining a power beyond the limits of the human body, he completely squeezed out his physical essence. The essence within his Dantian, where a large Dan was violently pulsating, was almost entirely drained by You Liqing!

The crimson blood flame light continued to surge into the sky.

You Liqing's entire body was unrecognizable, his eyes turning white as they twisted under the raging Vital Energy.

In the distance.

Long Tai, covered in blood, and Qing Niao, who had exhausted all her Vital Energy and infused it into a single arrow, were both stunned.

Finally, their eyes were filled with sorrow.

Both of them were Primordial True Energy Grandmasters and had cultivated Divine Seed Martial Arts, so they naturally understood...

What You Liqing's current state meant.

Although he had gained immense power, it was... exchanged for his life force.

"Niu Mo..."

You Liqing's body burned with endless blood light.

He floated up, and countless shattered stones were swept into the air by his powerful Vital Energy, only to disintegrate into powder.

His white-tinged eyes stared at Li Cheng, who wore the Niu Mo mask.

Even Li Cheng felt a strong sense of threat at this moment.

At this moment, You Liqing seemed to have touched the threshold of the Divine Warrior realm.

"Great... General..."

Qing Niao's face was pale, and her lips trembled uncontrollably.

You Liqing turned his head, and a complex expression flashed in his white-tinged eyes, "Run."

"No!"

Qing Niao bit her lip and shook her head vigorously.

"I know what you're thinking..."

"You're grateful that I saved you from a pile of corpses back then, but you're a foolish girl..."

"Have you ever thought about why you were in that pile of corpses?"

You Liqing spoke calmly.

Qing Niao's body trembled violently.

"That city, the one that was massacred, the killer, the one who exterminated your entire family... was me. I only took you in because I saw potential in your roots."

"I raised you to become a true killing weapon."

You Liqing's tone was indifferent. After detonating the two Divine Seeds, every moment was incredibly precious to him.

But he still explained to Qing Niao.

"So, I'm not worth you risking your life for."

"Get lost."

You Liqing turned around, facing Li Cheng, who was silently floating in the air.

Qing Niao was struck by lightning, impossible!

She suddenly looked at Long Tai, who was covered in blood and panting heavily.

At this moment, under Qing Niao's intense gaze, Long Tai turned his head away, feeling a bit guilty.

"It's the King..."

"Enough."

You Liqing spoke coldly, interrupting Long Tai.

"Both of you, get lost. You're both useless."

You Liqing finished speaking.

His gaze fixed on Li Cheng, "Netherworld Niu Mo... I underestimated you."

"No, I underestimated your despicable and venomous nature."

Using the overwhelming Ten Thousand Dragons Subjugation to attract his attention, stirring up his competitive spirit, Niu Mo engaged in a fistfight with him.

Within the fist technique, there was the powder of the Five Elders' Divine Crystals, and as the powder flew, it prevented him from mobilizing his Divine Nature power that had just entered the fetal breathing state...

Finally, there was the Overkill of the Six Seal Automaton, which was at the lower rank of the Five Elders and possessed the first realm of the Divine Warrior's combat strength!

It was truly despicable and venomous...

But this was Niu Mo.

According to Su Huan Li's intelligence, Niu Mo... had always been like this.

It was You Liqing who had taken it for granted.

Since that was the case, he would have to pay the price with his life.

"Unfortunately, your strength is too weak. If you could reach the Apex Triflower Realm or even open the Mystic Gates Divine Seed, perhaps our Ten Thousand Dragons Subjugation could have a satisfying fistfight."

"What a pity, what a pity..."

"Not satisfying enough."

You Liqing's body began to fall apart, piece by piece.

On Li Cheng's face, behind the Niu Mo mask, his eyes were calm and unperturbed.

"Killing you is satisfying enough."

Niu Mo's voice was low and hoarse.

What was the point of seeking satisfaction?

He, Niu Mo, had come to kill.

If he didn't kill You Liqing, he would eventually be killed by You Liqing. Between killing and being killed, Li Cheng chose to kill.

The former You Liqing was like a divine warrior descending from the heavens, unleashing a shocking killing intent outside of Heavenly Origin Dao City.

Li Cheng would never forget.

To have a satisfying fistfight...

After killing you...

Capturing your spirit will do.

"Netherworld Niu Mo... shameless."

You Liqing was stunned, then laughed.

His Divine Crystal Golden Dan exploded, and his immense Divine Nature merged into his body.

Maintaining the Overclocked state and an extremely strong martial will.

He felt the countdown of his life force.

He clearly felt his life slipping away.

"This is the realm of the Divine Warrior..."

You Liqing raised his hand, feeling the power of this moment.

There was an unprecedented sense of ease...

The next moment, his body twisted—

It directly transformed into a blood-colored streak, moving at an extreme speed. The air exploded, forming expanding circles that were difficult to follow!

His five fingers clenched into a fist, as if capturing and hiding countless rays of light!

Countless surging Vital Energy transformed into powerful Vital Energy Divine Dragons, wreaking havoc!

This punch! Even Li Cheng's eyes narrowed involuntarily!

Ten Thousand Dragons Subjugation!

Roar! ! !

Countless dragon roars resounded continuously!

It was terrifying, extremely terrifying! Li Cheng raised his hand, touching his brow, and the Star Snatching Eye burst forth with dazzling brilliance.

In an instant, he controlled the Six Seal Automaton, which was at the lower rank of the Five Elders, and vigorously struck a punch!

You Liqing locked his target on Niu Mo. He wanted to kill Niu Mo!

He wanted to drag Niu Mo to hell with him!

But!

This Six Seal Automaton, which was at the Five Elders' rank, was completely under Niu Mo's control!

Bang! ! !

You Liqing's punch, which had reached the pinnacle of perfection, collided with the terrifyingly large fist of the Golden Ape!

In the vast sky, the substantial shockwave spread out in concentric circles!

Countless airwaves rippled in all directions!

Countless mists were torn apart!

At the same time...

(End of Chapter)In the Western Camp, many grandmasters in the Heaven-Man Unity Realm finally sensed something amiss, feeling the scorching Vital Energy and terrifying martial will between heaven and earth!

They realized that a major event had occurred at the main general's camp!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

The sound of breaking through the air reverberated, and strands of Vital Energy rose like billowing smoke.

The entire Divine Guard Army's Western Camp instantly erupted in fervor!

...

...

Qingniao felt as if she might fall from the sky, her soul shattered.

The one who slaughtered the city was You Liqing, and the killer was also You Liqing...

The one who massacred her entire family was also You Liqing...

That man who had stirred her heart... Qingniao felt as if countless sharp blades were piercing her already wounded heart. Tears of blood flowed down her cheeks.

Why...

Why was it like this?!

Qingniao opened her mouth, but the greatest sorrow was beyond tears, and she couldn't even scream.

She looked at the man who had ignited his Divine Seed, burning his life.

She gazed at the man who had haunted her dreams, at You Liqing, who was madly charging towards the terrifyingly powerful Automaton.

After an internal struggle, she closed her eyes and abruptly released the longbow in her hand.

In her spine.

A blood-colored Divine Seed, like a heart wrapped in blue veins, throbbed violently.

It exploded!

Divine Seed, Blood-Crying Divine Phoenix Death Arrow!

In an instant, a blood-colored arrow, like a flaming phoenix, burst forth from death, flapping its wings and carrying endless terror as it shot towards the Niu Mo, killing him!

The Niu Mo of the Netherworld!

The killer of her man...

Die!

Qingniao's arrow flew swiftly, piercing her forehead. Blood Flame Divine Pattern Bodhi Dragon Fang Dart, a silent and deadly sniper attack, came from Ma Mian.

It pierced her forehead, tearing apart the Divine Crystal in her Niwan Palace.

Shattering her vitality!

Blood light exploded behind her head.

Qingniao opened her eyes, but all she saw was a blurred blood-red haze.

Thud—

Qingniao fell to the ground, her longbow sliding away.

Blood blurred her eyes, just like that year when the city was slaughtered.

Blood was everywhere.

...

...

Boom—!!!

Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape and You Liqing's terrifying fists clashed!

Bang, bang, bang—

Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape's arm, engraved with countless Ten Thousand Phenomena Seals, exploded, and the wooden fragments seemed to burn up in an instant!

It was as if countless thunderbolts had detonated, causing the entire earth to heave like a dragon!

The ground beneath Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape's feet caved in again and again!

Sand and mud erupted, forming a curtain that soared dozens of zhang high!

After throwing that punch, You Liqing saw Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape's shattered arm and smiled.

Then, his vitality was completely extinguished...

Hurricane, shattered!

All his Vital Energy was extinguished!

His lean and tough body suddenly collapsed, every bone shattered...

Exploding into a cloud of blood mist.

Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape's fierce punch pierced You Liqing's body, and a massive flow of air and mist erupted from his back!

You Liqing's lifeless body, like a cannonball, shot towards the ground.

Long Tai's beard danced wildly as he roared.

"Ah—!!!"

He sprinted several steps, trying to catch You Liqing's corpse.

Even though he knew that at this moment, You Liqing's corpse was beyond his ability to catch.

Because it still contained the terrifying power of a Martial Saint.

But Long Tai still rushed forward without hesitation.

Bang—!!!

Long Tai knelt on the ground.

His knees shattered, and the ground cracked with countless spiderweb-like fissures.

Long Tai, with You Liqing's corpse on his back, stood amidst the smoke and dust-filled, devastated ground.

He smiled, his mouth agape.

"I told you earlier... don't protect that Dragon Empress Consort. You just wouldn't listen..."

"As for the slaughter of the city, it was the prince's order..."

"You saved so many people... and yet the prince punished you. Why didn't you mention that?"

"Chasing after girls isn't something you're good at... idiot."

"Qingniao is so great, beautiful, and tall, just a bit small-chested... but... she's no worse than that Dragon Empress Consort..."

"We'll die together..."

"That's good too..."

"Liberation."

Long Tai slowly lowered his head.

He took his last breath.

...

You Liqing's mangled corpse was propped up by Long Tai, who knelt on the ground, amidst the smoke and dust-filled, devastated ground.

Buzz—

A blood-colored light shot out.

The injured Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape transformed into the 'Ten Thousand Phenomena' Seal and was collected by Li Che.

Li Che floated over and landed in front of You Liqing's corpse.

Beneath the Niu Mo mask, his eyes were calm and unperturbed.

He sensed the constant stream of figures rushing towards the Western Camp.

Powerful Vital Energy and the overwhelming Vital Energy of the army formation distorted the void.

If You Liqing had truly led the army, even with the Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape, Li Che wouldn't have been confident in defeating him.

However, it must be said that You Liqing...

Was a real man.

Even in his final moments, he detonated two Divine Seeds, achieving the ultimate sublimation of vitality, and with a punch, he shattered one of the Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape's arms!

What a formidable opponent...

He was the strongest enemy Li Che had faced so far.

Only after exhausting all his schemes did he finally win.

It was a hard-fought victory.

Moreover, You Liqing's body... seemed to hold countless stories.

Li Che put away You Liqing's Heaven Earth Jade, covered in cracks.

Then, Li Che quietly gazed at You Liqing.

So outstanding.

The Demons of the Netherworld will surely have a place for you.

He spread his five fingers and placed them on You Liqing's head.

"Capture Spirit."
