Chapter 245: Summoning a Heavenly Thunder Body and the Truth of the Netherworld Revealed (Part 1)
Crack! Crack!
Boom!
The leaden clouds piled up heavily, and a startling thunderbolt tore through the night, wandering amidst the black clouds.
The sudden burst of scorching heat seemed to melt the wind and snow, and the winter thunder had brewed for an entire night, finally unable to contain its power.
Like a floodgate opening, it turned into raindrops, pelting down from the sky with a loud clatter.
The heavy rain poured down, like a torrent unleashed!
Electric lights intertwined, and serpents of lightning danced!
In the western camp, the Divine Guardian Army's vast encampment.
At the location of the main general's tent, it had long been reduced to ruins, and a deep pit with a diameter of several dozen zhang resembled a blooming flower of death, adorning the earth.
The main general's tent had long disappeared without a trace, and the hardened soil frozen by the harsh winter had been flipped over again and again.
The scorching and steaming mist slowly rose from the ruins.
Li Che, wearing the cute bull demon mask, had a sturdy and robust physique, with muscles piled upon each other like boulders. Just the simple act of raising his hand gave the impression that his muscles were about to explode.
His body, tempered to the extreme, exuded a terrifying aura of power with every movement.
With his five fingers spread wide, Li Che's eyes behind the mask were calm and serene like a deep well, gazing at You Li Qing's body, which had completely lost its life force.
A top-tier powerhouse at the Embryo Transformation Realm with three flowers blooming, even in Heavenly Origin Dao City, he would be considered a top-notch expert.
If not for the Five Elders' Automaton, the Blood God Nine Suns Golden Ape, which had been bestowed with six Ten Thousand Phenomena Spirit Seals, Li Che's personal strength alone, no matter how clever his schemes, would have struggled to kill You Li Qing.
The power of the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Energy was indeed formidable, but because Li Che's cultivation had just barely reached the Primordial Great Grandmaster level, he could only barely match the Origin Convergence Spirit Energy of You Li Qing, who had three flowers blooming.
However, You Li Qing's Origin Convergence Spirit Energy was extremely vast, and in a prolonged confrontation, Li Che would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.
If You Li Qing hadn't been severely injured...
Li Che would have had no chance at all.
"But, in this world... there are no ifs."
Li Che murmured softly.
Li Che believed that if the news of the Bull Demon's severe injury were to leak out, coupled with his exposed location, You Li Qing would undoubtedly rush to kill him and take his bull life!
Moreover, with You Li Qing's formidable strength, Li Che truly couldn't rest easy.
Therefore, it was impossible for Li Che not to kill You Li Qing.
If Li Che's identity as the Bull Demon were to be exposed, he believed that even if You Li Qing had to risk offending the Heavenly Origin Sect, he would still come to kill his entire family!
If Li Che wanted to live a peaceful life in this world, he had to strive to eliminate all potential risks.
Like You Li Qing, like the Dragon Queen Consort...
Especially the Dragon Queen Consort!
Li Che's eyes filled with murderous intent, this woman who wanted her daughter to marry the deceased Ji Hai Hui in a ghost marriage was simply... unforgivable!
Madwoman!
I'll kill you sooner or later!
This time... you're lucky!
If, this time, You Li Qing hadn't blocked the Divine Talisman for the Dragon Queen Consort, even with her semi-Divine Warrior-level strength, she would have suffered a severe injury!
And Li Che...
Loved to see others suffer heavy injuries.
Then, like a shark smelling blood, he would immediately follow, and when the opportunity arose, he would kill without hesitation!
Li Che never acknowledged being a good person.
In Flying Thunder City, he had no qualms about using sinister weapons, poison, lime, and other vile substances. Why would he care about a despicable reputation?
He wasn't some heroic bull demon!
Buzz...
The sound of breaking through the air reverberated continuously, but Li Che remained unhurried.
Little by little, black mist seemed to spread from You Li Qing's corpse, constantly seeping out from his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears.
It was incredibly thick, like a dense cloud of ink.
Slowly, it condensed and outlined You Li Qing's figure!
It was as if from the depths of hell, the dead were being forcibly pulled back to life!
You Li Qing's captured spirit slowly took shape...
His eyes closed, like a dark spirit floating in front of Li Che, slowly descending to the ground.
Then, You Li Qing's closed eyes suddenly snapped open, like two dazzling golden lamps bursting with dazzling brilliance!
Boom!
It was as if a group of thunders had descended and intertwined, the rumbling sound echoing both inside and outside the city walls!
Even though it was just a captured spirit, one could still feel a scorching and vibrant life force, blazing like molten gold!
It was like an angry ocean wave, roaring with fury!
You Li Qing, who had emerged from the captured spirit... was in his prime!
Uninjured by the Divine Talisman, his essence, energy, and spirit had all reached their most perfect state!
In that instant, You Li Qing's injuries vanished, and the armor enveloped in a layer of hazy golden light clanged.
The torrential rain falling from the sky had not yet struck his body when it evaporated, turning into cloud-like mist.
Li Che, wearing the bull demon mask, calmly observed You Li Qing, who had returned from the brink of death.
His black hair whipped wildly, and his eyes blazed with intensity.
You Li Qing stared at Li Che, fixated on him, and it seemed... he still retained his memories from before. After the confusion, his memories, like ink, stained his mind, allowing him to understand what had happened.
A vast aura surged through the ruins, stirring up a violent whirlwind.
"I died."
"And I'm alive again?"
You Li Qing murmured.
He saw his own corpse and the body of Long Tai, who had been supporting him from behind, now completely lifeless. Long Tai's face twitched, and a hint of pain appeared on his expression.
"I..."
You Li Qing opened his mouth.
He turned to look at Li Che, and surprisingly, he didn't struggle or resist as Li Che had imagined.
Li Che raised his eyebrows slightly. White Impermanence, Xue Dufu, was already stirring, after all, this was a top-tier Great Grandmaster with three flowers blooming. If he could devour him...
Even if he couldn't consume him entirely, he would still become incredibly powerful!
Becoming the lord's most formidable treasure!
"My lord."
You Li Qing's armor clanged as his black hair whipped wildly, and he bowed to Li Che.
He lowered his head, something he had never done in his previous life.
Li Che, wearing the bull demon mask, looked at You Li Qing in surprise: "You won't resist? You won't struggle? You willingly submit to me?"
You Li Qing's cultivation was higher than his, and according to the normal rhythm, he would struggle and resist like Su He Lian, the Great Master at the Embryo Transformation Realm.
Although this struggle and resistance were futile against Li Che.
However, the fact that he would struggle and resist indicated disloyalty, and Li Che's captured spirit slots were limited. Naturally, he wouldn't keep him, instead using him as food for Xue Dufu, Yingwei Zhenren, and Niu Shisan.
You Liqing clasped his fists.
"Because... I beseech the General to revive Long Tai and... Qingniao."
As soon as he regained consciousness, he saw his own corpse, Long Tai's corpse, and in the distance, Qingniao with her long green hair spread out on the ground, pierced through her forehead.
You Liqing understood what he had to do.
Since he could live...
Long Tai and Qingniao should also have a chance to live.
At the same time, he was shocked by the terrifying power of the Netherworld, but he also understood...
This was a new opportunity, a brand new chance!
An...
Opportunity for rebirth.
So, how could You Liqing resist?
His sharp intuition made him realize that the Bull Demon General before him was sinister, vicious, and ruthless, acting decisively without hesitation. If he sensed any threat, he would surely eliminate it at the first moment.
If he had any thoughts of resistance...
At this moment... he would probably have been fed to the dogs.
Indeed, a worthy general, he is... perceptive.
Much more sensible than Su He Lian.
Li Che liked this perceptive obedience, especially since You Liqing's strength was extremely powerful. With such strength...
Combined with the Blood God Nine Sun Golden Ape, Li Che felt that the chances of killing the crazy old princess were much greater!
Li Che nodded with satisfaction.
"Not bad."
"Since you have chosen to submit to me, you can no longer resist me..."
Li Che said with a smile.
This was obedience.
Only during the initial moments of resurrection would there be resistance and hesitation. If they resisted then, Li Che would eliminate them.
But if they chose loyalty, obedience would be imprinted, and they would completely submit to Li Che.
"I dare not resist, General," You Liqing clasped his fists.
"Very good."
"Since that's the case, I'll grant your wish."
Li Che nodded.
He spread his five fingers and aimed at Long Tai and Qingniao.
Black mist rose from their corpses, slowly condensing into their obedient forms.
Maintaining their formidable strength, the two Primordial Great Grandmasters...
You Liqing's obedient gaze wavered, as if his emotions were stirred. He immediately appeared beside them, comforting them and ensuring they didn't harbor any thoughts of resistance.
You Liqing was also worried that his vicious and cruel General, upon sensing their rebellious thoughts, would eliminate them without hesitation.
Just like a devil.
"Greetings, General!"
The moment Long Tai and Qingniao's obedient forms appeared, they respectfully clasped their fists in greeting to Li Che.
They didn't resist and naturally chose to submit.
Not only because of You Liqing, but also because they understood the situation and knew how rare it was to have a chance to return from the dead.
Li Che nodded in satisfaction.
He snapped his fingers, and the three obedient forms instantly turned into three black obedience chess pieces, shooting into the heavenly chessboard and landing on the board.
The next moment, he clenched his five fingers.
Crack!
Amidst the heavy rain, winter thunder rumbled and exploded once more! But Li Che's figure had already disappeared.
Within the thick fog.
Horse Face sheathed his spear and stood, pressing his hand against his mask. His entire body exploded into ink mist, merging with the fog that was gradually dissipating under the heavy rain.
The heavenly chessboard also twisted and disappeared.
Boom, boom, boom!!!
In the camp, powerful vital energy surged, and raindrops burst open. White silhouettes rushed over at high speed.
They leaped and landed on the edge of a deep pit dozens of zhang deep.
Everyone's bodies trembled violently.
The deputy general, a Primordial Great Grandmaster, stood at the edge, dazed, and took a step forward.
The broken stones, wet with rain, rolled down the sloping edge of the pit, accompanied by the flowing water...
Steam rose with a hissing sound.
In the deep pit.
The Western Camp Divine Guard Army's General, Princess Mo Li's fourth disciple, You Liqing...
was dead.
Long Tai and Qingniao... also perished there.
Everyone felt a buzzing in their heads, as if their brains were about to explode.
Something happened! A major incident!
...
...
Heavenly Origin Dao City.
The Dao Master's Mansion.
The city lord of the Dao City was often referred to as the Dao Master.
As the ruler of the entire Lingnan Dao and its subordinate states and counties, the scope of jurisdiction was vast, hence the title of Dao Master.
In the Great Jing Dynasty, there was one Dao and one Divine Sect.
The Divine Sect had a profound foundation, and those who could govern a Dao were usually sects with a thousand years of heritage and a divine embryo great deity as their foundation.
Therefore, the Great Jing Dynasty established the Dao Master to ensure that each Dao Master was a top-tier expert. In addition to commanding the Divine Guard Army, they also served as a counterbalance to the Divine Sect.
The Temple Guardian Bureau and the Imperial Astronomical Bureau were also part of the Great Jing Dynasty's power structure. The Great Jing believed that these three powers could effectively balance the Divine Sects.
Among them, the Dao Master commanded the Divine Guard Army, providing military deterrence, while the Temple Guardian Bureau dealt with the strange temples, and the Imperial Astronomical Bureau managed the divine carvings, divine weapons, divine talismans, martial pills, divine essence crystals, and other wonders within the Dao City.
In fact, in most Dao Cities, the combined power of these three forces did effectively deter the Divine Sects.
The Dao Master's mansion covered a vast area and was extremely luxurious.
Flowing wine and winding waters, pavilions, and terraces.
Although the winter rain washed over the snow-covered grounds, it still stirred up a mist, creating an ethereal atmosphere like a fairyland.
Dragon Queen Consort Ao Yu Xin sat in a leisurely pavilion, with the clever little dragon girl, Ao Qingqing, standing by her side.
Ao Yu Xin liked Ao Qingqing very much. Although she wasn't her biological daughter, as the daughter of her brother, Ao Yu Xin saw her own past self in Ao Qingqing.
At that time, she was carefree, devoted to cultivation, and was a pure little dragon girl.
She once transformed into a human form and traveled in the mortal world, adventuring with humans, drinking and feasting with them, experiencing the life of mortals.
However, as a dragon girl, her identity destined her to have no say in her own dragon life.
She was used by the Dragon God clan as a marriage partner and married off to that man.
Known as one of the top five great vassal kings of the Great Jing Dynasty, Ji Mo Li became the link between the Great Jing and the Dragon God clan.
She became...
a sacrifice.
The Dragon Queen Consort's body was plump, and her dragon horns emitted a faint glow.
