Chapter 392: Your Names Are All Written in the Book of Life and Death, No More Pretense as All Evils
Chapter 392: Your Names Are All Written in the Book of Life and Death, No More Pretense as All Evils Gather at the Netherworld Capital (Part 1)
Boom—!!!
The terrifying explosion was so loud it even drowned out the thunder that split the sky above.
Ji Molin’s armor clanked, his pitch-black armor emitting an incredibly brilliant light. Clutching the Umbrella Gun in his hand, a force of utmost purity suddenly erupted!
The air seemed to groan under the unbearable pressure.
It was as if the Heavenly River had been severed, pouring down with overwhelming might, stirring up a fierce gale, surging and raging like a hurricane that sought to shatter everything around it! With a single step, Ji Molin instantly joined the battlefield, moving at an extreme speed.
The Umbrella Gun in his hand struck forcefully, like an incredibly brilliant light!
Lu Taibai’s silver hair flew, the Taibai Sword in his hand shimmering with a loud hum. With a fierce sweep, a cascade of sword light descended, slicing towards the ascending Ji Molin.
The resounding sword light, imbued with the power of the Dao Essence Cataclysm Sword, was extremely terrifying. It collided with Ji Molin’s spear strike, both forces annihilating each other, but also suppressing Ji Molin’s domineering aura as he rose into the air.
Seeing the Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird of the Mystic Guards descending from the sky, and the mighty Ji Molin gripping the Umbrella Gun, a colossal pressure suddenly slammed down upon him.
Lu Taibai’s silver hair flew, his sleeves filled with sword energy, and he couldn’t help but sneer, “Good, what a grand Peach Feast!”
“Are you trying to deceive us, the divine sect masters, to the Divine Capital to kill us? The Peach Feast, which has been held for dozens of generations, will surely be ruined by you!”
“Next time, see if any divine sect master will dare to enter the Divine Capital!”
Lu Taibai’s sword energy resonated, unrestrained, intertwining around his body.
Li Che held Xi Xi, standing quietly behind Lu Taibai, supported by the sword energy.
Lu Taibai turned his head to look at Li Che, “Ache, since Xi Xi doesn’t want to be the Crown Prince Consort, we, as her teacher and father, must fulfill her wish.”
Li Che’s black hair, strong like black lightning, intertwined and struck, his third eye vibrating, his divinity beginning to pulse wildly.
“Of course.”
As he spoke, the air around Li Che seemed to solidify, like an inflated balloon that suddenly expanded, enveloping Xi Xi and protecting her perfectly.
It seemed that a great battle was inevitable.
Li Che didn’t know why the emperor had issued such an order, whether it was due to the influence of the National Master, or to force Lu Taibai to show his true colors, fearing the appearance of two Divine Tribulations in the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect, so he kept him in the Divine Capital.
Or perhaps the emperor had his eye on something about Xi Xi.
Ever since the emperor mentioned taking Xi Xi as his daughter, Li Che had felt something was off, a sense of unease rising.
However, at that time, Li Che didn’t pay too much attention, as it was understandable if the emperor simply liked Xi Xi’s talent and wanted to adopt her as his daughter.
After Xi Xi refused, the emperor didn’t say much, but Li Che didn’t expect him to have another plan in mind.
M
Becoming the Empress of the Great Jing Dynasty, the most honored woman in the land!
This condition, if offered to any daughter of another divine sect, would be impossible to resist.
After all, it represented not only status but also a close connection with the Queen Mother of the West Enigma Temple, one of the Three Pure Ones' Enigmatic Temples, and the potential for future greatness!
For the divine sect, having a daughter as the Crown Prince Consort, and potentially the Empress, would ease the tensions between the divine sect and the Great Jing Imperial Court.
Although the Great Jing is not as prosperous as before, due to the Enigma Tower rebellions in various regions, the court has adopted a policy of entrusting the Enigma Temples to the divine sects for self-governance.
However, the pressure from the Great Jing on the divine sects still exists.
So, in the emperor’s view, the reward he offered presented two paths for the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect.
One was to accept, which would ease the tensions between the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect and the Great Jing, giving the sect time to develop and truly achieve the grand feat of two Divine Tribulations in one sect.
The second path was to refuse, which would lead to a confrontation.
The emperor initially thought that Xi Xi or Li Che would not refuse.
However, Li Che refused, and refused decisively.
Li Che’s gaze was cold and fierce, staring at the emperor on the high platform.
Combining the emperor’s previous intention to adopt Xi Xi as his daughter, Li Che sensed his ill intentions.
Indeed, a father’s intuition was correct.
Writing the emperor’s name in the Book of Life and Death was indeed the right choice!
This old man... harbors ill intentions!
Although Xi Xi’s talent is excellent, the reason she won the Dragonlet Feast was not just due to the machinery but also... the power of the daughter of the Divine Abyss Lotus.
Li Che’s gaze sharpened, piercing through the sword energy, directly meeting the emperor, who stood on the high platform, his yellow robe fluttering in the wind.
The emperor had his eyes on... the power of the Divine Abyss Lotus hidden within Xi Xi’s body?!
Boom, boom, boom—
Among the four Mystic Guards, a large man in crimson armor plummeted down, landing before the emperor on the high platform. His arms spread wide, and an enormous Black Tortoise aura expanded, blocking the clash between Lu Taibai and JiMolin, protecting the emperor and empress on the high platform.
On the other side, the divine essence cultivators of the Divine Capital’s Mystic Guards also activated their divineEssence, causing the divine runes on the walls of the Second City of the Divine Capital to flicker and glow.
“Divine TalismArray.”
LuTaibai’s third eye split open, the Dao Essence Cataclysm Sword power inside pulsing continuously.
His eyes grew more serious, and his aura steadily escalated.
The Nine Cities of the Divine Capital of Great Jing were said to have been built by the founding emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty. Beneath each city was inscribed a divine talisman array that the founding emperor had obtained from the depths of the Deceptive Pavilion. If all nine arrays were activated simultaneously, even a half-step divine tribulation could be suppressed and left behind.
However, no one had ever seen all nine arrays of the Divine Capital of Great Jing activated at once.
Even just one city's divine talisman array made Lu Taibai feel an immense pressure, causing his expression to change slightly.
He needed to break through and leave; there couldn't be any further entanglements.
After all, this was not the main territory of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect.
Lu Taibai looked at Li Che, who, along with Xi Xi, was enveloped within the Law of Heaven and Earth, immediately understanding Lu Taibai's concerns.
"Head of the Sect, let's break through."
"Let's return to the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect first."
Li Che said.
Lu Taibai nodded. Facing the overwhelming pressure from the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and the towering, imposing Ji Mo Li, Lu Taibai was no fool.
In such a situation, stubbornly fighting to the death would be unreasonable.
Not to mention, while the Great Jing Dynasty might not be at its peak, it was still a vast empire that had ruled for over a thousand years! It naturally had a deep foundation. Just the four top-tier peak-level Mystic Guard commanders alone made Lu Taibai feel pressured.
Not to mention the unparalleled martial expert Ye Pengju, the top-ranked at Heaven's Gate Pass, from the Temple Guard.
Therefore, it was unwise to linger; breaking through was the priority!
Dao Essence Cataclysm Sword...
Lu Taibai's eyes were instantly enveloped in a blinding white light, and the power of Dao Essence surged out madly!
To break through such an array...
Lu Taibai needed to pay a significant price!
However, the Mystic Guard commander Azure Dragon seemed to have also discerned Lu Taibai's intentions. His body trembled, and the sound of his armor clanging echoed as a terrifying Blood Qi burst forth from his back, transforming into a coiling azure divine dragon, as if its head were emerging from behind the clouds, with its whiskers curling!
As the sixth-ranked strength at Heaven's Gate Pass, the Azure Dragon had reached the pinnacle of the martial way, having obtained a legacy from the Great Jing Imperial Court, which was derived from the Deceptive Pavilion.
The dragon's claws wreaked havoc, causing the air to shatter with each strike.
With the Black Tortoise providing defense and the expansion of the Divine Capital array, the Azure Dragon only needed to block Lu Taibai's next attempt to break through, and he could essentially leave Lu Taibai and Li Che behind.
As a Mystic Guard commander, the Azure Dragon obeyed the emperor's commands, regardless of right or wrong!
When the emperor ordered him to act, he would act!
On the other side, the White Tiger and Vermilion Bird also joined in, their martial wills shaking, as if they were the mythical White Tiger and Vermilion Bird, ancient beasts awakening with fierce roars.
With three top-tier peak-level experts acting, the void itself seemed to freeze.
Adding to that, the domineering and oppressive presence of Ji Mo Li.
The situation was quite severe.
Breaking through would not be an easy task, even with Lu Taibai's Dao Essence Cataclysm Sword, which had reached the half-step divine tribulation realm, he still felt a heavy pressure.
This was even without considering the presence of Ye Pengju, Wang Kui, and other Temple Guard experts.
Boom—
Li Che's spirit stirred, and the Law of Heaven and Earth leaped into the air.
Then it landed in the main banquet area of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect, expanding to envelop the second elder Zhao Fangzhou and the numerous child prodigies.
Of course, Li Che's primary goal was to protect his wife, Zhang Ya. He couldn't leave her behind.
If they were to leave, they would leave together.
Within the Law of Heaven and Earth, Zhang Ya was held by Li Che, who gently patted her, soothing her with his warm voice, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Li Che was not overly concerned.
Because, with the Flying Thunder Chess Piece in his possession, he was essentially invincible.
If it were before, when the Chess Sage Dao Fruit had not yet evolved and was still at the lv5 rank, there might have been some danger. At the lv5 rank, the Chess Sage Dao Fruit's teleportation with the Flying Thunder Chess Piece still had a slight delay.
However, at lv6, the Divine Capital array could no longer restrict him.
If the situation really deteriorated to the extreme, Li Che could send his wife, Xi Xi, and the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect children to Ink City.
Then he could use the Flying Thunder Chess Piece to escape.
Around them, various experts watched, and the heads of the major divine sects did not choose to act.
After all, this was the imperial court acting against the divine sects. As Lu Taibai had said, this time it was the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect, but next time it could be the Heavenly Pill Divine Sect, the Divine Talisman Divine Sect...
Above the White Jade Square, Lu Taibai held the Taibai Sword, with a concentrated and intense aura forming a brilliant beam, as if all the killing intent had been condensed into a single point. When he slashed, it seemed to tear the sky apart!
The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird, three Mystic Guard commanders, joined forces, with their Blood Qi forming terrifying divine beasts that clashed with Lu Taibai's full-force sword beam.
A deafening explosion echoed, and the Black Tortoise fully extended its shell to protect the White Jade Square. The Divine Capital array was also activated, preventing the terrifying aftershocks from spreading below.
As the top-tier peak-level battle unfolded above the White Jade Square, a transparent ripple continuously expanded from the center of the collision, spreading across the sky of the Second City of the Divine Capital.
Wherever the ripple spread, the air, spring rain, Blood Qi, divine essence, and everything else turned to dust!
Ji Mo Li did not join that battle. He gripped his umbrella gun, his feet touching the ground, and charged toward the main banquet area of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect at lightning speed.
He aimed a powerful strike at Li Che's Law of Heaven and Earth.
However.
A vast, pale golden Blood Qi, like a breach in the Heavenly River, surged down. Then a large halberd broke through the air, clanging and vibrating!
Clad in black armor, the robust and imposing head of the True Martial Sect, Shi Jian, held a massive halberd, blocking in front of Li Che's Law of Heaven and Earth.
The pure and fierce True Martial Qi swirled, scorching and fiery, distorting the air as if a thousand troops and ten thousand horses were about to burst forth in an instant, like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
The long halberd trembled, colliding with the umbrella gun held by Ji Mo Li.
It was just one strike, the clanging and booming sound momentarily drowning out the thunderous roar of the spring rain in the sky above. Two top-tier martial experts, clashing with sheer force, caused ripples of nothingness to continuously spread.
After the initial collision, there were dozens more clashes, sparks flying, and the impact of the Qi and blood was like two massive waves crashing into each other!
The True Martial Divine Sect's leader, Shi Jian, took action! Many were surprised, but not overly shocked.
Shi Jian often visited the Quanyuan Divine Sect, drinking and chatting happily with Lu Taibai. Everyone saw this, so when Shi Jian stepped forward, it wasn't entirely unexpected.
However, standing up under such pressure was like taking a stand against the Great Jing. But when the crowd considered the special status of the True Martial Divine Sect, they didn't mind anymore.
If the Great Jing was to be most tolerant of the eleven major divine sects, it was undoubtedly the True Martial Divine Sect. Unless the True Martial Divine Sect's leader, Shi Jian, rebelled, the Great Jing wouldn't take action against them.
