Chapter 316: Hell King's Strike in the Netherworld, Shattering Southern Heaven with a Staff (Part 1)
Boom!
The shattered Buddha light, the exploding blood mist, and the flying flesh and blood...
It was like a blood-stained golden lotus, swaying in the raging wind, as if permeated with the aura of death, symbolizing the withering and fading of life!
Huang Tuo, the half-saint Divine Eagle from Little Ling Yin Temple...
His head was smashed by a staff!
The terrifying blast echoed, and the raging wind rose, carrying countless terrifying blood Qi, which burst forth from the blow of the Divine Monkey's staff.
With a bounce of the staff, the power erupted instantly, containing a terrifying force of annihilation.
Even the space seemed to be smashed, as if countless fine cracks were spreading out.
A deep dent appeared.
Huang Tuo's head was shattered...
But this was just the beginning!
Under the broken Divine Monkey mask, Li Che's eyes became filled with recklessness and madness, and his disdainful gaze looked down upon Huang Tuo.
After smashing Huang Tuo's head, the Willful Iron Divine Pole danced through the air again, swiftly striking Huang Tuo's headless corpse, which was floating near the heart of the Six-Armed Buddha's golden body.
He wanted to smash Huang Tuo's corpse into minced meat!
Huang Tuo's head was crushed by the staff, and his cinnabar field was shattered.
The divine embryo had no support, but...
Li Che did not see Huang Tuo's divine embryo escape, which meant it was hiding in his corpse.
This was very strange.
Normally, to contain the divine essence golden core, divine embryo, and other divine condensates, one must rely on the cinnabar field as the vessel.
However, this staff blow not only shattered Huang Tuo's head but also destroyed his inner space.
Yet, his divine embryo did not separate from his body!
"Divine essence backlash?"
"Or perhaps... divine essence secret technique?"
A hint of ridicule flashed in the Divine Monkey's eyes.
The Divine Rod was wrapped in powerful blood Qi, and the carved dragon pattern on it seemed to come alive, awakening the Five Old Divine Weapons at this moment.
Under the broken mask, Li Che's eyes seemed to flow with condensed golden smoke.
Golden thunder rumbled incessantly, and the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dharmic Fruit in his chest roared wildly.
His brow split open, and a golden eye emerged in an instant.
Star-Plucking Eye!
Ten Thousand Analysis Endless, Peer into the Void and Grasp the True!
With a glance, he saw that Huang Tuo's headless corpse contained a divine embryo, which was like an inflated balloon, constantly growing and filling Huang Tuo's headless body.
It seemed to come alive, wanting to turn the tables and control Huang Tuo's body.
Brilliant Buddha light burst forth from Huang Tuo's divine embryo, and an extremely evil Buddha nature raged out.
Om!
The originally stagnant Six-Armed Buddha's golden body suddenly accelerated its retraction, covering Huang Tuo's body like golden armor.
Ding!
The Willful Iron Divine Pole struck Huang Tuo's headless golden body with great force.
It was like an ancient bell, hanging high on a clock tower atop a ten-thousand-foot snow mountain, had been struck, and the shattering bell waves rippled and spread, causing violent tremors.
Huang Tuo's headless corpse was struck by the terrifying force unleashed by Li Che's staff, nearly causing it into a shapeless mass.
However, after the transformation, it withstood the explosive force, preventing it from being shattered.
It transformed into a golden projectile and slammed into the blue stone ground of Ink City.
Boom!
The earth trembled, shattered stones flew horizontally, and blue brick fragments scattered in all directions.
The muddy soil and broken bricks, wet from the ink-colored rain, were lifted high by the powerful force, like a towering curtain reaching ten zhang tall, and then fell like a waterfall.
The spreading shockwave caused the ground to continuously erupt with circles of scattered waves.
"So hard..."
Under the Divine Monkey mask, Li Che narrowed his eyes.
The divine embryo... had developed self-awareness?
Li Che was certain that it was not Huang Tuo's consciousness but rather his soul, which had been eroded, granting the divine embryo sentience.
After Huang Tuo's consciousness was extinguished, his soul began to invade his remaining body.
What a strange power...
Without the cinnabar field, it could still exist...
"Is it because of the pervasive Buddha light and Buddha nature?"
Li Che thought of the Buddha Seal he had suppressed on the Heaven and Earth Chessboard, and his eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
These Buddhist divine natures... were indeed somewhat strange.
The ability to cultivate such a divine nature meant that there must be temple deities with this nature, who could provide corresponding divine cultivation methods.
"Six-Armed Buddha... Evil Buddha?"
Li Che's eyes turned cold.
A massive earthquake shook the land, and the spreading cracks formed a web-like pattern. The fissures continued to expand, reaching ten zhang, several dozen zhang, a hundred zhang, and even several hundred zhang.
Countless Ink City houses collapsed under the impact of the tremors, and ink-colored dust filled the air.
Huang Tuo, headless, stood in the ruins of the city, his legs buried in the ground, and his entire body seemed to be cast in golden hues.
His muscles twitched, and his spine arched, revealing four blood-drenched arms growing from his back, in addition to his original two arms, making a total of six.
The Buddha light shone, and the golden radiance was like a small sun.
However, there was no scorching heat, only a bone-chilling coldness.
"Evil Buddha..."
Under the mask, Li Che's lips curved upwards slightly.
"Let's see how evil you are!"
Countless streaks of thunder rumbled around Li Che, swirling wildly like whipping lashes, and even the air seemed to emit a scorched smell.
Primordial Spell·Celestial Thunder!
Celestial Thunder True Technique, urgent as the law, the righteous thunder falls upon the body, untainted by tribulations!
Celestial Thunder Evil Extermination!
The countless rays of thunder gathered around Li Che, forming an exquisitely detailed thunder armor. Every inch of Li Che's body was empowered by Celestial Thunder, even his hair strands were imbued with it.
The blood Qi condensed into a crimson cape on the back of the thunder armor.
Boom!
Li Che stepped on the ground, and the air seemed to be intensely compressed.
A dazzling sword cry erupted!
It was the Sea of Qi Saint Su Leibao, who had been waiting for the right moment, striking from the sky as Li Che activated the Celestial Thunder Armor.
Holding the Golden Dragon Slasher, he silently emerged from a hidden spot, unleashing a dazzling display of swordplay.
The Divine Seed exploded, and the sword's radiance reached its pinnacle!
It was as if the sword intent, dormant for a year, suddenly erupted in that instant!
The corpse of Huang Tuo, whose head was blown off and whose body was occupied by the recently awakened Divine Embryo's will, seemed to have not anticipated the ambush from the Sea of Qi Saint.
In an instant, he was struck by a perfectly executed slash—a slash that was timed, powered, and aimed to perfection by Su Leibao.
The Six-Armed Buddha, with his arms crossed in defense, tried to block the downward-slicing slash!
Dong!
The sword's aura raged like an endless dragon's gale, wreaking havoc in all directions.
The Six-Armed Evil Buddha was instantly sent flying by the force of the slash.
In a flash, the Monkey God, clad in Celestial Thunder Armor, descended.
The intertwining of positive and negative thunderbolts created a grand and majestic scene, like the birth of true thunder, transforming the Monkey God into a Demon-Exterminating Buddha!
A staff strike sent shockwaves through the air, resembling a peacock's display of its feathers behind the Monkey God!
Chaos Heaven-Crossing!
A staff strike soared towards the heavens!
The aura of blood and Qi enveloped his body like a fiery cape, rippling for a thousand miles. His eyes shone with golden brilliance, and the true thunder infused his body, exuding a majestic righteousness as he stood between life and death.
A staff strike to exterminate evil!
At this moment, the martial arts will reached its zenith, driven to the extreme.
In an instant, the entire Ink City was swept clean of wind and thunder, as if the dark and gloomy atmosphere had been cleared away by a single staff strike.
The heavens and earth lost their color, and the sky fell silent!
Bang!
A piercing infant's scream filled the air, chilling to the bone.
It sent shivers down one's spine, stirring up feelings of intense bitterness, anger, and madness.
Within the exploded corpse of Huang Tuo, a twisted and mutated Divine Embryo, resembling a heart, pulsated violently.
Veins, tendons, and intricate networks of blood vessels covered the Divine Embryo, forming a fleshy mass that seemed to possess a life of its own.
Intense yet chilling Buddha light radiated from within.
It was as if an enraged Buddha was screaming within the gestating Divine Embryo.
Then, the twisted Buddha nature and the evil within Huang Tuo were completely annihilated.
Ink City...
Fell into complete silence.
The ink-colored rain pattered down on the ground, creating ripples in the pool of dragon blood.
The evil Buddha's bitter and hideous nature dissipated entirely.
Li Che, wearing the Monkey God mask, hovered in the air above Ink City.
With one hand, he gripped the Willful Iron Divine Pole, resting it on his shoulder.
The current Li Che, facing ordinary Sea of Qi Saints and even those with two Divine Embryo transformations, remained calm and composed, capable of overwhelming them.
Just like Huang Tuo, under the relentless onslaught of the Netherworld's combined killing techniques, was no match for Li Che.
Almost without resistance, Li Che annihilated him.
Sniping, teleportation, stealth, supernatural powers, divine tool enhancements... This series of attacks overwhelmed even ordinary Sea of Qi Saints.
After all, the combined might of Li Che and Su Leibao was formidable.
Moreover, the latest sniping mechanical beast, the Divine Craft Celestial Electromagnetic Cannon, with its terrifying penetration power, even pierced through the Six-Armed Buddha's golden body, renowned for its invincibility against peers.
This demonstrated the might of Li Che's new mechanical beast, crafted with the Immortal Art Fruit.
Hanging in mid-air, he allowed the ink-colored rain to wash over his body.
The Celestial Thunder Armor crackled and dissipated, revealing his outstretched hand.
The Heaven-Earth Jade, covered in cracks, that once belonged to Huang Tuo, appeared in Li Che's palm.
Sensing that the Heaven-Earth Jade was still functional, Li Che heaved a sigh of relief.
It was a relief that it wasn't broken, as the precious Spirit Woods within would have been devoured by the chaotic space of a shattered Heaven-Earth Jade.
Li Che would have been devastated.
Those resources were invaluable to him.
He put away the Heaven-Earth Jade.
Li Che wasn't in a hurry to take inventory. He had killed Ao Lie and Huang Tuo within Ink City, but the matters outside were not yet concluded.
The ink-colored rain fell on the ground, creating a pitter-patter sound.
The air was thick with the pungent smell of blood.
Scanning the area, he spotted the dragon corpse that had been destroyed by You Li Qing and the Dragon Maiden. He nodded slightly.
Although Ao Lie was from the Dragon Deity lineage and one of the nine Dragon Sons, his strength was merely at the initial stage of the Sea of Qi Saint realm. Despite the Dragon Deity lineage's formidable defense, that was the extent of his power.
You Li Qing's Bound Deity had reached the pinnacle of the initial stage of the Sea of Qi Saint realm under Li Che's constant nurturing, just a step away from the Sea of Qi realm.
The advantage of Bound Deity cultivation over normal martial arts practice was its ease and potential for rapid growth. Bound Deities only needed to devour other Bound Deities to absorb and assimilate their power, thereby enhancing their own strength.
In other words, Bound Deities theoretically had no bottlenecks in their cultivation, and they could rapidly ascend to great heights as long as they devoured enough Bound Deities.
However, Li Che believed it wouldn't be that simple in the later stages...
The demand for Bound Deities to devour would also increase accordingly.
"My Lord."
You Li Qing bowed respectfully.
The Dragon Maiden also transformed into a voluptuous human form, bowed, and then presented Ao Lie's Heaven-Earth Jade to Li Che as if offering a treasure.
Li Che, wearing the Monkey God mask and carrying the treasure staff, calmly glanced at it.
Without showing any emotion, he accepted the Heaven-Earth Jade offered by the Dragon Maiden.
Then, he said indifferently, "How do you feel? Killing your own blood-related brother with your own hands, does it... make you feel uncomfortable?"
After he finished speaking, You Li Qing's Bound Deity eyes narrowed, maintaining his respectful posture.
The voluptuous body of the Dragon Queen trembled slightly, and her deep blue pupils contracted. A chill ran through her body, and she quickly shook her head, saying, "No!"
"Ao Lie intended to harm you, our Lord. Killing him was... the right thing to do! We feel nothing but satisfaction!"
Li Che smiled.
He didn't doubt the loyalty of the Bound Deities, but he asked casually.
The power of Bound Deities seemed to be related to the Dao Fruit and possibly the Dao Essence.
With the strength of the Dragon Maiden and You Li Qing, they had no choice but to obey.
His five fingers, like divine spears, pierced through the air, aiming at Ao Lie's corpse from afar.
His eyes couldn't help but burn with intensity.
This was different from his previous encounter with the Dragon Queen.
That time, the Queen burned the power of two divine seeds to the extreme, forcefully breaking through to the Martial Saint level. In the end, her flesh and blood collapsed, and she returned to dust, her essence returning to the earth.
And now, Ao Lie is a genuine Martial Saint, and a Martial Saint of the Dragon Deity lineage, a Dragon Corpse... Truly a treasure trove!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—
It sounded like paper being burned and carbonized, then curling and emitting a faint, rustling sound, as if countless tiny insects were gnawing away.
"Bound Deity—"
A deep voice resounded from Li Che's throat.
Like the hoarse chanting of an ancient tribal priest, pushing open the doors of death, summoning the souls of the deceased from the netherworld and hell.
Within Ink City, countless raindrops slanted and twisted.
Then, black silk threads emerged, slowly appearing from Ao Lie and the shattered corpse of Huang Tuo in the distance, intertwining and entangling with each other.
They formed two figures swaying left and right, slightly blurry.
"Roar—"
In the moment of clarity, Ao Lie's Bound Deity, his eyes instantly turning crimson, anger, betrayal, pain... all kinds of emotions surged in his heart!
"Ao Yu Xin!"
"I'll kill you!"
"You damned brat!"
Ao Lie let out a long howl, then his gaze fell on the Monkey God, trembling slightly. But at this moment, his heart was covered with anger, and he roared at the Monkey God.
Then, he was slapped by the Monkey God and shot out like a cannonball.
"I'll let you have them."
A faint voice resounded.
Li Che's gaze fell on the two palms pressed together, with Buddhist light radiating, as if resisting the corrosion of the Bound Deity.
A hint of regret flashed in his eyes.
"These two today are a bit too uninteresting."
A faint, hoarse voice echoed from Li Che's throat.
The next moment, he snapped his fingers.
"Children, come out for a feast."
Buzz, buzz, buzz—
Then, black chess pieces appeared around Li Che, swirling like a storm.
Su Thunderbolt, Su Dao Ling, Huang Jian Jiu, Xue Du Fu, Long Tai, Qingniao, Yingwei Zhenren, and other Bound Deity figures emerged rapidly, excited and expectant.
Each of their appearances and postures resembled flies rubbing their hands in anticipation of a feast.
