Chapter 295: Supporting Hell (8K Unity) (Part 2)
Transcend to Immortality!
Fifty percent!
Without hesitation, Li Hao activated his trump card.
Boom!
A vast wave of energy erupted from his feet, and a breath of Immortal Qi emerged, drawing in the Power of Heaven and Earth!
His eyes became radiant, entering the Divine Power State, and his body emitted a divine might like molten gold.
At the same time, the Heaven-Earth Meridian extended, gathering the previously condensed Power of Heaven and Earth and channeling it into his body, converting it into a surging Qi Power, which flowed into the fifteen layers of his Dao Domain.
The Dao Domain that had been infiltrated suddenly trembled with Rule, becoming as dense as Divine Iron. It expelled all the Mourning River Power that had seeped in, transforming into an unbreakable wall!
"Quick, go!"
Li Hao's golden hair flew as he roared at the Wang Family members.
His Dao Domain extended, blocking the Mourning River, making the exit Rule in front of them much more stable. The Golden Light converged on the Wooden Plaque Token, accelerating rapidly.
Wang Zhendong was stunned, looking at the young man who radiated the might of a deity. He was also in the Great Peace Dao Realm and could deeply sense the young man's terrifying power. If they were to clash, he might even be instantly killed!
At this moment, the exit on the Wooden Plaque soon opened, leading to the outside of the Mourning River.
"The exit is open!"
Someone exclaimed in surprise, calling out urgently.
The exits for the others also began to open one after another.
Seeing the passage finally appear, Wang Yongzhi and the others all breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately looked at Li Hao.
"Huatian Divine General..."
"Go!"
Li Hao shouted.
The joy in Wang Yongzhi's and the others' eyes turned complex as they looked at the young man who was holding back the Hell-grade Mourning River Power with his own strength, feeling a sense of sorrow.
However, two of the younger members were full of excitement, hurriedly crawling toward the exit and being the first to be teleported out.
Wang Zhendong now realized that the Hell-grade Mourning River Power was entirely being blocked by Li Hao. If Li Hao left, it would instantly flood over them. The longer they stayed, the more difficult it would become for Li Hao.
"Quick, don't delay!"
He shouted angrily.
Seeing him speak, Wang Yongzhi and the others knew this was not the time for emotional outbursts. They gritted their teeth and quickly stepped into the exit, teleporting out.
"Huatian Divine General, you must come back alive!"
Wang Yongzhi called out loudly, stepping into the teleportation portal.
Wang Zhendong didn't delay either. Staying here wouldn't help Li Hao at all, just like the other Wang Family members.
Standing on the teleportation exit, he gazed deeply at the young man, clenching his fists.
After experiencing so many Mourning Rivers, he felt more helpless than ever. He never thought he would become a burden, needing help from others.
Soon, the scenery changed, light and shadow alternating, and his body seemed to traverse a long river of void. When he reappeared, he was already in the mountain temple outside Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha.
"Hmm, so it's done so quickly?"
The statue of Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha squinted, seeming to smile. Beside the statue, Wang Zhenfeng and Wang Zhenping, two of the older generation, were waiting, not having followed inside.
The younger ones loved to join in the excitement, but these old folks were more steady.
As they saw the Golden Light above Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha suddenly flare up, with people continuously teleporting out, those who stayed outside were somewhat surprised and taken aback.
Although "Chong Er" could pass through the Yudu-Class Mourning River, the Rules of each Mourning River were different. Even if he could pass, it shouldn't be this fast, right?
Could it be that he has some ultimate trick that works everywhere?
Soon, they saw Wang Zhendong step out, but the Golden Light above Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha had already contracted and disappeared.
"Hmm? Where's Huatian Divine General?"
Wang Zhenfeng was stunned, his heart skipping a beat as a bad premonition arose.
Wang Zhendong's expression was grave, his eyes fixed on Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha after he came out.
Wang Yongzhi and the others were similarly tense and anxious.
But one moment, two moments... Time slowly passed, and a full incense stick later, there was still no movement above Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha, no new passage opening.
Wang Zhendong's heart sank, his expression becoming increasingly grim, suddenly recalling the young man's words earlier.
Even in that situation, he wouldn't still be trying to pass through, would he?
"What's going on? Why isn't anyone speaking? Did something happen to Huatian Divine General?!"
Seeing Li Hao not return, the Wang Family members outside immediately changed color, realizing something was seriously wrong.
Especially Wang Zhendong and the others, their faces were as dark as the bottom of a pot.
"Child, tell Grandpa what happened?"
Wang Zhenping looked at his grandchildren.
These two young ones were Li Jiangying and Li Rumei. After Li Hao reshaped his Physical Body, they didn't recognize him.
But when they heard others addressing Li Hao, they immediately knew that the young man was the one they had been chasing after in their hearts.
In the Li Family's Divine General Manor, their Talent was not enough to compete with him in the True Dragon trials, but they were not willing to accept it. They believed their mother was right; the road of life was long.
There were countless examples of monsters who had faltered halfway, which gave them great comfort.
The one who laughed last was the true genius.
"He hasn't come out yet, he must be dead", Li Rumei said with a slight pout.
Wang Zhenping was taken aback. Dead?
The girl's clear voice also sent a shock through the hearts of Wang Zhendong and the others who were still waiting with hope.
Li Hao's delay in returning clearly indicated that he was either trapped by the Hell-grade Mourning River, unable to find the exit, or attempting to clear the trial, both scenarios being extremely dangerous.
Wang Zhendong clenched his fists. The young man with the Saint-Asking Posture had a future so bright it made people look up in awe and fear. Yet, he had stayed behind to cover their retreat, giving them a chance to live while putting himself in extreme danger.
They had never been particularly close before.
Wang Yongzhi and the others exchanged glances, all seeing the complex and painful expressions in each other's eyes.
A wave of anger seemed to be building up in their chests, unable to be released.
They had gone there in high spirits, only to become a hindrance, putting the young Divine General in danger. If the Emperor knew, he would likely be so furious that he would spit blood. They couldn't even imagine the extent of his wrath.
They felt guilty and blamed themselves, wishing they could punch themselves. How could they have been so foolish at their age!
"How could he be dead?"
Wang Zhenping came to his senses and couldn't help but ask his grandchildren.
Although he had no particular fondness for the young man, he certainly didn't wish for his death. After all, Li Hao was a formidable warrior of the Human Race.
"He insisted on showing off when he could have left with us. Humph, he just likes to be the center of attention", Li Jiangying said with a hint of jealousy in his eyes.
In the Divine General Manor, after the young man revealed his cultivation, he became the center of attention. No one even mentioned them anymore.
His brilliance overshadowed all his peers, even Li Qianfeng, who had become a disciple of a Buddhist Master, was reduced to a mere supporting role and lost his luster after being defeated.
Although Li Jiangying's voice was low, the mountain was so quiet that the Wang Family members, with their considerable strength, could hear every word as if it were spoken right in their ears.
Wang Zhendong suddenly turned around, his eyes like those of a fierce and ruthless hawk, and stared at Li Jiangying.
"What did you say? Say it again!"
Li Jiangying was taken aback, not expecting such a reaction from his second uncle.
Before he could say anything, Wang Zhendong took a step forward and, with a sharp slap, struck Li Jiangying across the face.
The old, withered hand delivered a harsh blow, breaking two of Li Jiangying's teeth, and he fell to the ground.
"Brother!"
Li Rumei cried out in shock and hurried to help him up.
Wang Zhenping was also stunned and quickly stepped forward to block, angrily saying:
"Second Brother, what are you doing!"
"Fourth Brother, didn't you hear what the child said?!"
Wang Zhendong roared, his voice echoing through the mountain. He looked like a lion that had been provoked, his eyes glaring fiercely at his fourth brother.
Wang Zhenping was taken aback and said, "His words were a bit harsh, but he's just a child, and it was just talk..."
"Fourth Brother!!"
Wang Zhendong's hair stood on end in anger. "Are you really old, or are you just stupid!"
Wang Zhenping's face changed, not expecting his second brother to be so angry.
"Just talk? That's a Divine General, on par with our Ancestor. What is he, to mock such a hero?!"
"If it weren't for Huatian Divine General, we would all be dead, even those two. They just escaped danger and are already speaking of their savior like this?!"
Wang Zhendong's face turned red with anger, his eyes sharp and piercing.
Wang Zhenping's expression was grim, and he had no words to argue. He had always felt a hidden fear towards his second brother.
"Too undisciplined, too disrespectful!"
Wang Zhendong glared at Li Rumei, who was sobbing on the ground. His face was cold, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.
"Earlier, you asked me to take care of them, to let them follow me to Mourning River to broaden their horizons, and I agreed. We used the resources of the two Divine General Manors on them, only to see what kind of people they truly are?!"
"Since your daughter is now part of the Li Family, their children should never show their faces in the Wang Family again!"
His words were a decree, and Wang Zhenping's expression changed instantly. He hadn't expected his Second Brother to be so decisive.
Li Rumei, who was crying on the ground, turned pale with fear at his words. She stopped crying and looked up at her grandfather with tear-filled eyes.
Li Jiangying, who had risen to his feet, covered his face. His eyes were filled with fear as he looked up and saw the many once-friendly Wang Family elders now coldly watching him. His heart clenched, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
"Take them out!"
Wang Zhendong waved his hand.
Wang Yongzhi nodded slightly and gestured to someone.
Soon, a couple of people dragged the siblings out of the mountain hall.
"Grandfather..."
Their voices grew faint as they were taken away.
Wang Zhenping's face was grim, but he remained silent.
Wang Zhendong glanced at him coldly, showing no better expression toward his fourth brother. He knew his brother's nature well and didn't bother to look at him further, turning to Wang Yongzhi and saying:
"Dispatch two teams of death soldiers to investigate the situation inside."
"Understood."
Wang Yongzhi nodded and immediately gave the orders.
"Zhengdong, what exactly happened inside?"
Beside him, Wang Zhenfeng asked curiously. It was rare to see his Second Brother so furious.
Wang Zhendong glanced at the Fifth Elder, his expression softening slightly. He spoke in a low, solemn voice:
"A Hell-grade Mourning River was attracted to Mourning River, intending to merge with the Netherworld-level Mourning River. They had already secretly fused the Token. If it weren't for the Huatian Divine General, we wouldn't have made it back."
He briefly summarized the events.
The mention of a Hell-grade Mourning River sent shockwaves through the crowd, and some gasped in horror. For the Wang Family, it was like a taboo, more jarring than hearing the Emperor's name.
Wang Zhenping was also stunned, his face changing. He finally understood why his Second Brother was so angry and suddenly realized that the two children indeed had issues. They had been rescued but had turned around to mock their saviors, a clear sign of ingratitude.
He fell silent, not uttering a word.
Wang Zhendong ignored him, waiting for the death soldiers to arrive and then instructed Wang Yongzhi to arrange the mission.
However, along with the death soldiers, a scout brought a Military Report.
Wang Yongzhi took the report, frowning slightly. What kind of Military Report could be so urgent? Could it be that the Hell-grade Mourning River had revealed itself, causing numerous casualties?
When he opened the report, his frown deepened.
"What is it?"
"It's a military situation..."
Wang Yongzhi looked up, his face filled with shock. "The Demons are attacking the city. All the top Demon forces from beyond the borders have gathered outside the Imperial City and are besieging the Imperial Capital!"
"What?"
Wang Zhendong and the others were taken aback.
The Demons attacking the Imperial Capital?!
The Wang Family had long been in charge of Mourning River, and though their control over military intelligence had weakened, they knew that Demons generally dared not approach the Imperial City. That place was guarded by Dayu's strongest, the presence in Qian Dao Palace casting a shadow over the Nineteen Provinces. Even the Border Demon Plague feared the True Person's sword, let alone an attack on the Imperial Capital.
Those who grew up in the Imperial Capital, if they never left the city, might not even know what Demons looked like.
"This is an Emergency Military Report from the Imperial City."
Wang Yongzhi couldn't help but look at Wang Zhendong.
