Chapter 316: Lu Ming's Full Power! Battle Against the Loose Immortal! The Goddess Liu Appears! (Part 1)
2024-06-04
Hidden in the distance, Ji Hao Yue's eyelids twitched.
"He's found me?"
"This kid... He's definitely suspicious. Not only is his cultivation technique chaotic, but his perception ability is also extraordinary. I'm at the Ninth Stage, yet I can't even hide from him?"
"But you brought this upon yourself... No, you want me to intervene in the affairs of the Moon Holding Sect? Dream on!"
"I wish you all were dead and gone!"
"Hmph!"
Ji Hao Yue didn't respond, and he had no intention of taking action.
At this moment, he had already guessed what was going on.
It was most likely that the Moon Holding Sect had sent Lu Ming to rescue someone! In his opinion, setting aside Lu Ming's messy cultivation techniques... Lu Ming was truly foolish!
Everyone knew that Hongwu was a Loose Immortal.
Even though they didn't know how many tribulations he had faced, his strength was absolutely unquestionable.
To come and rescue someone right under his nose, and you dare to accept this task? Haven't you seen that not a single person from the main lineage of the Moon Holding Sect has shown up? What else could this be if not stupidity?
So foolish...
"You deserve to die!"
"You deserve to die even if you're already dead."
"Moreover, I wish the Moon Holding Sect would perish, so that my Moon Embrace Sect might have a chance to recover..."
At this moment, Ji Hao Yue even had a glimmer of expectation.
...
"As expected, you're not willing?"
Seeing that the other party didn't respond, Lu Ming remained unhurried.
Everything was under his control.
It would be strange if Ji Hao Yue took action; however...
If he didn't take action, could they really let bygones be bygones? In the eyes of the one above, we...
Are considered 'one of their own'.
When the time comes, you might not even have a choice but to intervene.
...
In the void, Hongwu stared coldly.
Whether it was the overwhelmingly powerful tribulation lightning or the hidden Ji Hao Yue below, he said, "A mere newcomer to the Ninth Stage."
"I doubt you'd dare to take action, or else... you'll face certain death!"
"However, let's deal with the trouble at hand first."
At this moment...
Hongwu was no longer flustered, especially as he looked at himself, now completely imbued with divine energy. The sharp fox mouth slightly opened, and the corners of his lips curled with a hint of mocking color.
"Hahaha."
At this moment, he underwent a tremendous transformation, shedding his demonic form and transforming into a human shape...
No!
It wasn't a transformation into a human form, but in this instant, he had cultivated a human body!
With this, he appeared even more divine! It was as if a human deity was floating in the void, surrounded by an astonishing divine aura.
"The power of the people's votive power is indeed useful."
"The higher the cultivation, the greater the votive power."
"The methods I learned from those bald donkeys were unexpectedly effective, but it's a pity that those bald donkeys are too cowardly and too 'merciful'."
"Why not be as decisive as I am?"
"If I had as many followers as the Buddhist sect, even if I faced the twelfth tribulation, I'd dare to challenge it!"
As he silently muttered to himself, he placed his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky.
Gazing at the fourth tribulation lightning about to strike, he spoke calmly, "I am a human deity."
"Why target me?"
"..."
Those who heard these words felt their scalp go numb.
How dare you say such words? But surprisingly, it seemed like Heavenly Dao was left speechless, and after a moment of 'lag', the tribulation lightning actually began to 'decline' rapidly, though it only lasted an instant before regaining its previous intensity.
It continued to decline.
Until... it became less than a tenth of its original strength, and then it stopped declining.
...
"What?!"
Chen Bixuan, who was still fleeing, felt her whole body tingle: "Even this is possible?!"
"Heavenly Dao, you're too, too, too..."
She stuttered several times but couldn't bring herself to utter that word.
A junior cultivator, cursing Heavenly Dao?
That's courting disaster!
Are you asking for death?!
Only a fool would dare to do such a ridiculous thing.
However, she couldn't understand why Heavenly Dao would be so foolish.
He didn't understand, and neither did the others.
But...
Lu Ming secretly thought, "As expected, my understanding of Heavenly Dao is not in vain. I've read many novels, and in those novels, Heavenly Dao is often described as... following rules without emotion, and sometimes, it can be a bit foolish."
"In other words... it's a bit stupid."
"It seems that in the Immortal Martial Continent, a 'human deity' receiving the power of the people's votive power is indeed given 'special treatment', and Heavenly Dao should provide them with 'convenience'."
"Just like this moment."
"This fox demon understood this point long ago."
"Moreover..."
"He started planning at least thousands of years ago. What a grand scheme!"
"..."
Lu Ming's gaze turned colder.
"Seeking deification, and doing so in front of the masses, then receiving the people's sacrifices, votive power, shedding his demonic form, and completely cultivating a human body."
"This move is quite impressive."
Just at this moment...
Hongwu smiled faintly, "Disperse."
He didn't make any movements.
The tribulation lightning...
Disappeared.
Spoke, and it was done?
Ji Hao Yue's scalp went numb.
But soon, he realized it wasn't the case.
"Was it because the tribulation lightning was too weak, and Heavenly Dao gave him convenience?"
"Human deity..."
"Even a Loose Immortal Tribulation can be passed like this?"
"Doesn't this count as cheating?"
"And if today's events were to spread..."
"The entire Immortal Martial Continent would likely descend into chaos!"
As an old and powerful cultivator, now at the Ninth Stage, Ji Hao Yue's thoughts went deeper. He couldn't help but think that if today's events were to spread...
It would be quite amusing.
He feared that even those 'mad' Loose Immortals would follow suit.
How many people would die then? And if they were allowed to cause chaos, wouldn't the entire Immortal Martial Continent fall into disorder?
Even if the Holy Land intervenes, there will never be peace.
Perhaps... there might be ambitious individuals who specifically undergo Body Dissolution to cultivate as Loose Immortals!
That would truly be the 'Dark Age's Arrival'.
...
The fifth, sixth, seventh...
All the way to the ninth Tribulation Thunder, Hongwu finally took an interest and personally intervened, dispersing it.
But...
That was all he did.
The nine tribulations of the Loose Immortal Tribulation fell, and Hongwu successfully passed through them. Now, he is a genuine Four Tribulation Loose Immortal!
The tribulation clouds scattered at an incredible speed, and the world returned to clarity. Immortal radiance descended and empowered him, further enhancing Hongwu's strength.
The already formidable Hongwu became even more astonishing at this moment.
"Then..."
"Little mouse."
"Have you decided how you want to die?"
He looked at Lu Ming, his expression cold and detached, "You almost ruined my plans!"
"I'll make sure to 'repay' you."
"You will die, but the Moon Holding Sect and that so-called Moonlight Lineage, hahaha..."
"When I pass through the ninth and tenth tribulations..."
"They will all have great use."
This caused Lu Ming's eyebrows to furrow deeply.
Ji Haoyue also felt a deep sense of malice.
What the hell does this have to do with our Moonlight Sect? If someone almost ruined your plans, why are you taking it out on us?
"You ran away pretty fast."
Hongwu glanced in the direction of the Moon Holding Sect, then slowly descended and turned to Lu Ming, "Have you decided how you want to die?"
"..."
Lu Ming took a deep breath and slowly spoke, "Today, it's not certain who will die."
He formed hand seals...
"Don't waste time. I'll make you disappear in an instant. It'll be over in a flash, and it won't hurt at all."
"How do you know it won't hurt if you've never died before?" Lu Ming retorted.
His words left Hongwu slightly dazed.
After a moment of silence, Hongwu laughed, patting his shoulder, "But you're still going to die."
"Have you chosen?"
"I'll give you three breaths."
"You..."
"Why are your ears always so bad?"
Lu Ming sighed, "Didn't I just say that today, it's not certain who will die?"
"Two..."
Hongwu ignored Lu Ming and continued the countdown.
You, a mere ant, dare to act tough and talk big in front of me?
If you're looking for death, this isn't the way to do it!
Seeing this, Lu Ming remained silent and slowly rose into the air, continuously forming hand seals.
His aura began to rise!
"Roar!"
A thunderous roar filled the sky, shaking the heavens and earth.
In the depths of the void, a Qilin Divine Technique appeared, accompanied by rolling thunder and a mighty sound.
"Qilin Technique?"
Hongwu watched the Qilin illusion and Lu Ming's rapidly growing aura, then chuckled.
"Is this your reliance?"
Lu Ming remained silent.
The Immortal Fire Transformation directly reached the eighth stage!
His combat power instantly surged to an extremely terrifying level.
At the same time, a divine bow appeared, making him seem like the only true deity in the world.
His aura continued to grow!
"One..."
As Hongwu finished the countdown, he raised his hand and unleashed his immortal power, instantly shaking the void and surrounding Lu Ming.
"Don't waste time."
Lu Ming lifted his hand and unleashed a powerful attack, further increasing his combat power.
"Sole Dominance Sacred Technique!"
Boom!!!
A thick 'war smoke' appeared above Lu Ming's head.
But this was not war smoke; it was a heavenly phenomenon caused by his overpowered combat power.
Hongwu: "..."
Ji Haoyue: "What the hell?!"
He suddenly realized... Lu Ming's aura was no longer much weaker than his own!
How could someone simultaneously use so many burst-type secret arts? And they were all so powerful?!
Were they all Invincible Techniques or something?
They were all shaken by the display.
But...
It wasn't over yet!
Lu Ming...
was still buffing himself!
Each of his disciples, with their unique templates, had one or two burst-type secret arts. Even if they weren't Invincible Techniques, they were still incredibly powerful.
Lu Ming went all out, stacking buff after buff!
In the end, he even used the Blood Moon's power!
At this moment, Lu Ming truly reached his peak combat power, causing Ji Haoyue's scalp to tingle and Hongwu's face to reveal surprise: "Interesting."
"Indeed, it is interesting."
"Even I, the original, have been greatly enlightened."
"But what does that matter?"
"The gap in absolute strength cannot be bridged by a few burst-type secret arts."
"You've delayed long enough."
"Die."
"No more talking. As I said, you're the one who will die today!"
Lu Ming took the initiative, "Take my move!"
Boom!
He pushed the Douzi Secret to its limit and simultaneously unleashed the Flying Immortal Art!
In the 'original work', the Flying Immortal Art was a supreme divine art created by the Ruthless Emperor, specifically targeting the Douzi Secret among the Nine Secrets. It unleashed an offensive power beyond human limits, capable of breaking through all defenses and destroying everything in its path.
But at this moment...
The two supposedly incompatible 'divine arts' were forcibly 'fused' under Lu Ming's control, like the union of yin and yang, black and white.
They...
mutually enhanced each other, unleashing an even more terrifying power!
Even Hongwu was secretly astonished.
In his normal state, Lu Ming would never have been able to achieve this, even with all his power unleashed.
But don't forget Lu Ming's harvest from the 'Godly Tomb'—control!
Forcible control!
Forced 'Fusion'!
This strike was like a collection of contradictions, yet highly unstable, forcing Hongwu to respond with caution.
"Break!"
He unleashed his secret technique, blocking the attack, and the void shattered repeatedly, but his expression changed once more.
"Interesting."
"It's truly intriguing. You haven't reached the Ninth Stage, yet within your offensive power, there's a trace of Immortal Qi."
"Unprecedented in the past, and perhaps none will surpass you in the future."
"This method is indeed intriguing."
"Hand it over, and I'll leave your body intact!"
Lu Ming remained silent, his face taut).
He was pondering...
Do all these antagonists talk so much?
However, with so many buffs on himself, the cost of being a hooligan was high, and time was pressing. When was there time for idle chatter? It was time to act!
The X-Character Secret unleashed, and in an instant, Lu Ming's body became ghostly, his speed surpassing even Hongwu's. It was as if he had 'teleported' behind Hongwu, and then unleashed a series of 'Sun-Character Fists'.
The 'Girl's Fist' seemed to lack power.
But in reality, each strike carried the might of the Artificial Sun Fist.
Moreover, it was the Artificial Sun Fist infused with a hint of Immortal Qi!
Furthermore, Lu Ming forcefully controlled it, preventing the power from leaking out. Instead, he unleashed it within a 'pinpoint' range, maximizing the attack's force.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! ...
Amidst the continuous booming sounds, Hongwu was repeatedly blasted away, but Lu Ming's attacks were like a shadow, and the frequency of his strikes increased.
However...
Hongwu remained unharmed!
After punching him away again, Lu Ming stopped, his brows slightly furrowed as he focused his gaze.
"You're not bad."
Hongwu patted his lower back, "This massage is better than a chiropractor's."
Lu Ming: "..."
"It's a pity you lack a bit of Immortal Qi. If you had more, I might have been injured. But now, I'm even more interested in you."
Surprisingly, Hongwu didn't rush to kill him. Instead, he smiled, "Do you have other tricks?"
"I should have, right?"
"Otherwise, it would be too boring."
"Come on!"
He beckoned to Lu Ming, "Let me see."
"..."
So much chatter.
Lu Ming was already preparing his ultimate move!
The Three Thousand Thunder Phantom Body reappeared.
Simultaneously, in Lu Ming's hands, the Eight-Colored Fire Lotus in his right hand and the Great Sun Burning Heaven in his left hand!
The Super Phased Array Nuke!
This strike was awe-inspiring!
The entire void was devoured by the terrifying strange fire.
At that moment, Ji Haoyue was jumping with frustration.
"This..."
"According to the intelligence, this is the method Xiao Ling'er used when she was in the Guiyuan Sect!"
"How does he know it too?!"
"And..."
"Where did the strange fire come from?!"
Ji Haoyue was stunned.
At the same time...
He felt something was off about Lu Ming.
How could he possibly master all the secret techniques and invincible techniques of the Moon Holding Sect, including those passed down by the sect's direct disciples?
This was illogical!
But...
An even more illogical event occurred.
He saw behind Lu Ming, a pale moon slowly rising into the sky.
That was...
The Moon Holding Sect's supreme technique, the Moon in the Sky!
Ji Haoyue: "..."
Holy shit?!
"Ahhhh!"
A piercing scream came from the center of the explosion.
Lu Ming rolled his eyes, "Stop pretending."
"Your acting is terrible. Your screams are pathetic."
"Haha, it's rare to meet such an interesting person. I've entertained you, and you're still not satisfied?" Hongwu appeared, unharmed.
The power gap was immense.
So vast that it brought despair.
Lu Ming's brows furrowed.
Fortunately, he didn't rely solely on himself to kill Hongwu. As long as he could stall for some time, until Goddess Liu arrived, everything would be fine.
But for now...
"Your offensive skills are impressive."
"I wonder about your defensive abilities. How about you take one of my moves?"
Hongwu finally took action, using one of his surgical techniques, a Blood Moon, which tore through the void, spreading negative emotions wherever it passed, enough to drive most people insane in an instant.
It also possessed terrifying destructive power.
"..."
Lu Ming stared intently at the Blood Moon, "Ten Thousand Transformations Mystic Art!"
"X-Character Secret, empower me!"
The X-Character Secret empowered the Ten Thousand Transformations Mystic Art.
This art could supposedly nullify all techniques in the world!
But...
The technique Hongwu displayed was no ordinary skill; it was an Immortal Art!
The Ten Thousand Transformations Mystic Art was indeed impressive, but it was still just a 'Mystic Art'. If he could comprehend the Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal Art, dispelling this Blood Moon would be effortless. But for now, it wasn't enough!
However, Lu Ming didn't panic.
The divine ring behind him spun rapidly.
His entire body had thousands of 'Mystic Gates' supporting the divine ring!
Buzz!
The Blood Moon, already weakened by the Ten Thousand Transformations Mystic Art, was instantly devoured by the divine ring and then vanished.
But...
The divine ring dimmed significantly.
"Oh?!"
"Not bad!"
Hongwu exclaimed, "Such strength is unprecedented in the ages. Below the Ninth Stage, you're undoubtedly the strongest."
"Even above the Ninth Stage, those with insufficient cultivation and strength would be slain by you!"
"I acknowledge you!"
"Below the Ninth Stage, you're the strongest!"
"..."
Lu Ming was speechless, "Unfortunately, I don't need your acknowledgment.
