Chapter 407: Killing Fear, the Court Retreats Eight Hundred Li, the Netherworld Gains Fame through A
Chapter 407: Killing Fear, the Court Retreats Eight Hundred Li, the Netherworld Gains Fame through Assassination, Immortal in the Painting's Fourth Metamorphosis (Part 2)
On the other side.
Lu Qiankun also took a deep breath, but he was neither hurried nor slow. At his own doorstep, what was there to fear?
He turned his head towards the tall figure sitting atop a mechanical beast, suspended high in the sky.
"A very spirited young fellow..."
Lu Qiankun stroked his beard, his eyes filled with admiration.
In the distance, Lu Taibai rushed over, his face covered in blood: "Master!"
Lu Taibai was very excited.
However, Lu Qiankun was somewhat dismissive: "Quickly stabilize your Dao position and spend more time in the Deceptive Pavilion. Hurry up and improve your cultivation."
"If not for the help of the Netherworld forces this time, my legacy would have been destroyed!"
Lu Taibai immediately became embarrassed.
"A storm is approaching. The Deceptive Pavilion is undergoing major changes, and the mortal world will also experience great transformations..."
"The gods are about to return, and peace in the mortal realm will not last long... Just like the destruction of the Qitian Temple, the Divine Sects will soon face a reshuffle. The future of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect is uncertain, and as the Sect Master, you must give it some thought."
Lu Qiankun shook his head.
Then, he looked up at the terrifying tribulation approaching him in the sky.
It was an extremely terrifying Wind-Thunder Divine Tiger, leaping down from the Nine Heavens, with countless raging winds and waves weaving through the void.
The shattering void made Lu Taibai feel suffocated.
Lu Qiankun took a deep breath, transforming into a streak of light and crashing into the Heavenly Origin Plaque.
In an instant, the plaque's radiance dimmed, not a trace of it leaking out.
Lu Taibai quickly lifted the plaque, slowly exhaling.
The terrifying Wind-Thunder Divine Tiger charged towards the plaque, causing Lu Taibai's silver hair and robe to fly backwards.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind and thunder struck their faces.
The Wind-Thunder Divine Tiger, having lost its target, roared and disappeared.
Lu Taibai opened his eyes, unaware that his back was already soaked in sweat.
The tribulation disaster...
It was too terrifying.
With this thought, Lu Taibai couldn't help but look at Li Che with some concern.
What was Li Che doing?
He had entered the game, causing the tribulation to retreat...
But could Saint Tribulation Li Che withstand it?!"
"Kill!"
"Kill them!"
Suddenly, a voice rang in Lu Taibai's ear.
It was Li Che's sound transmission.
After the tribulation retreated and the powerful tribulation cultivators left, the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect naturally gained the upper hand compared to the imperial court.
Lu Taibai held the Heavenly Origin Plaque, his eyes shining.
The White Sword in his sleeve trembled, and the Divine Annihilation Wind Sword trembled and buzzed.
"Kill!"
A long howl echoed.
Silver hair flew, and murderous intent raged.
Lu Taibai instantly locked onto his targets: Ning Caishen, Gu Cheng, and Zhao Chunqiu, who had been blown up by self-explosion, screamed.
The situation became chaotic again!
"Retreat!"
Xie Yunshen landed on the Mystic Iron Spirit Wood Warship, his face turning pale.
He had no choice but to shout the order to retreat.
Ji Molihai, with the will of his resurrected body, had already given the order to turn the warship around and begin retreating.
They intended to withdraw eight hundred li away.
Xie Yunshen did not insist on continuing.
He looked up at the completed Saint Tribulation Divine Carving, summoning the lightning tribulation for Li Che...
"What a brave move! A Saint Tribulation Divine Carving has broken the threat brought by the two divine tribulations!"
Xie Yunshen praised in his heart.
Boom!
"No!"
"Master, save me!"
A shrill roar.
Zhao Chunqiu couldn't escape in time and was found by Lu Taibai. After only a few moves, the already heavily injured Zhao Chunqiu was blasted into the air and exploded.
Blood splattered, and a mist of blood enveloped the area.
On the other side, Ning Caishen, the Sect Master of the Seven Treasures Sect, and Gu Cheng, the Sect Master of the Bashu Sword Pavilion, quickly retreated.
They used their secret techniques and divine weapons, transforming into streaks of light and taking advantage of the moment to escape.
On the other side, the Dragon God Prince and the three half-step Dragon God descendants of the Dragon God Clan also chose Ning Caishen and Gu Cheng, they chose to retreat.
One by one, the warships turned and fled, appearing slightly panicked.
The powerful Dragon God Clan cultivators dove into the Grand Canal, transforming into dragon shadows and swiftly escaping.
Boom!
Thundering sky, the rolling thunder never ceased.
Lu Taibai held the Heavenly Origin Plaque, looking at the retreating imperial army, and gripped the White Sword.
He laughed towards the sky.
"In this battle, I've slain three top-tier cultivators!"
"Hail!"
"Great Hail!"
...
In the sky, a huge black dog appeared, exuding a terrifying oppressive force that seemed to crush the void.
The heavens and earth collapsed, and cracks appeared.
The void seemed like veins, and the flowing substance was molten blood.
The terrifying black dog phantom emerged from the void, and after a long howl, the terrifying Saint Tribulation Divine Carving ended.
Li Che held the black dog divine carving and sat cross-legged on the back of the half-step divine dragon king.
Countless bolts of lightning surged and intertwined in the void.
Sizzle!
Lightning arcs moved around Li Che's body.
After the black clouds had suppressed for a while, the heavenly pressure dissipated, but the tribulation of the two divine tribulation cultivators had not yet disappeared.
To escape the tribulation, one must establish a small cave heaven or enter the Deceptive Pavilion.
Yet, simply crashing into the void...
Does not allow one to escape the tribulation.
Because the void also belongs to this heaven and earth!
Li Che slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze fell upon the black dog divine falcon. His eyes widened in surprise as he almost mistook the lifelike black dog for a real one.
However, it was ultimately just a divine carving.
But even capturing a trace of the dog's divine intent, this divine carving transformed into a Divine Carving Sage.
Vaguely, Li Che seemed to see from this divine carving the terrifying demonic dog that roared and shook the heavens and earth, stars and constellations.
"This trace of divine intent will indeed have a wondrous effect."
"Keep it for Xi Xi. She's about to go on a journey, and it'll be a good trump card for her."
Li Che smiled and kept the Divine Carving Sage.
Buzz—
Li Che descended gracefully, and the Netherworld King and the others had long since disappeared. The imperial court's expedition to Heavenly Origin Divine Sect and the retreating army of the Great Emperor's Sect also left.
As Li Che landed on the city tower of Heavenly Origin Divine Sect, a thunderous cheer erupted, like a great wave crashing against the Grand Canal, reaching tens of zhang high.
Having just broken through to the Divine Carving Sage, Li Che could be said to have turned the tide.
After all, the terrifying pressure from the two divine tribulations made even Half-step Divine Tribulation and Half-Sage Realm cultivators feel greatly suppressed, let alone the numerous cultivators within Heavenly Origin Divine Sect.
Even strong cultivators like Feng Zhiqi and Hong Shiffo felt their strength constrained under the divine tribulation's pressure.
Fang Hanshu and Lu Taibai arrived side by side, their faces filled with smiles.
"Congratulations, Li Sage! Our Heavenly Origin Divine Sect finally has another Divine Carving Sage. It's truly a joyous occasion!"
Even the usually composed Fang Hanshu couldn't help but smile at this moment.
Li Che smiled and clasped his fists, but he was surprised that Fang Hanshu had concealed his Vast Righteous River, reaching a level comparable to a Half-step Divine Tribulation, almost a Sage Scholar.
Regarding Fang Hanshu, this elder scholar, Li Che still couldn't see through him even now.
Perhaps, reaching the Sage Scholar realm might not be his limit? Scholars often like to keep a trick up their sleeve, similar to how Li Che also likes to keep a trick up his sleeve.
The bright-eyed Xi Xi, who had just turned seven, was already daydreaming about her upcoming adventure and training.
Li Che rubbed Xi Xi's head and turned to Lu Tai Bai and Fang Han Shu, "Sect Leader, we can't let our guard down. General Xie Yunshen's army hasn't retreated yet; they've set up camp outside the Grand Canal, about 800 li away..."
"Moreover, those two Divine Tribulation cultivators probably won't face any issues, but now... with our trump card exposed, General Xie Yunshen can mobilize more powerful cultivators to target our Primordial Origin Divine Sect."
Li Che's voice deepened as he spoke.
Based on the perception from the Heaven and Earth Chessboard and the flying thunder chess piece on Huang Mei's body, they had sensed the intention of the Imperial Army to set up camp.
Lu Tai Bai narrowed his eyes.
"General Xie Yunshen of the Imperial Army won't give up easily! Moreover, his target is you, Ah Che."
Li Che wasn't surprised by this.
Emperor Jing should have also guessed that he had obtained the Gathering Immortal Yellow Banner at the Peach Blossom Victory Assembly, which was why General Xie Yunshen of the Imperial Army had such a strong determination to attack the Primordial Origin Divine Sect.
"In a short time, General Xie Yunshen will likely confront our Primordial Origin Divine Sect, resulting in a stalemate... They probably won't dare to send out their troops so easily again."
"However, they have two Divine Tribulation cultivators stationed there, which we can't underestimate. Now that Ah Che has successfully transcended the tribulation, it's unlikely that he can force them back with the Sage Tribulation technique."
Lu Tai Bai took a deep breath.
"I will choose to seclude myself. My Martial Dao should also attempt to break through to the Demi-Sage Warrior realm, trying to step into the Heavenly Gate."
"If my Martial Dao reaches the Demi-Sage Warrior realm... it should match the combat strength of Ji Moling. Even if Ji Moling returns from the Blood Pool in Jizhou, I alone can stop him."
Lu Tai Bai's eyes flashed with a profound light.
Lu Tai Bai and Fang Han Shu no longer treated Li Che as a junior. As a Divine Carving Sage, his status within the sect was on par with theirs.
After chatting for a while, Lu Tai Bai and Fang Han Shu bid farewell and departed.
General Xie Yunshen's army camped outside the Primordial Vortex City, like a sword hanging over everyone's heads.
The courtyard suddenly fell silent.
Li Che sat under the eaves, deep in thought.
He raised his hand and touched his brow.
In an instant, the Heaven and Earth Chessboard soared into the sky, expanding rapidly to encompass the entire world.
As it continued to expand, it covered a vast area, following the surging Grand Canal.
Soon, Li Che saw the army of General Xie Yunshen camped outside the Primordial Vortex City.
In the icy and snowy territory, a dull camp was set up.
Mystic Iron Spirit Wood warships docked one after another, and the soldiers on the warships had low morale. However, they had no choice but to disembark, set up camp, and even start building wooden fortifications, planning for a prolonged stalemate.
"Setting up camp..."
"Then it's simple."
Li Che exhaled, feeling much more relaxed.
The fear was that General Xie Yunshen, with the help of the two Divine Tribulation cultivators, would regroup and launch another attack on the Primordial Origin Divine Sect.
But since they were setting up camp, it meant that General Xie Yunshen intended to summon more powerful cultivators for assistance. However, summoning powerful cultivators would take time.
Not only did this time provide Li Che with a significant opportunity to grow stronger, but even the act of setting up camp gave Li Che a substantial space for strategic maneuvers.
Under the eaves, Li Che's eyes suddenly opened wide, and golden flames danced, distorting the air.
A faint smile appeared on his lips.
Everyone might have forgotten...
The Netherworld was famous for its assassination attempts.
In the courtyard, Jin Mao Hu, Jin Tai Sui, and others suddenly felt a chill run down their spines.
The sky turned slightly white, and within the leaden clouds, goose feather-sized snowflakes drifted and fell.
Li Che patted Xi Xi, who wanted to speak but hesitated.
"Dad knows you want to go out and train. Rest assured, Dad promises that after your seventh birthday, you can go and train. I won't go back on my word."
Xi Xi's eyes sparkled brightly, and she nodded repeatedly.
Afterwards, Li Che spent some time with his wife, Zhang Ya, who was worried about the evening.
He then turned and entered the study.
The Immortal in the Painting's clone was summoned.
Li Che's entire body vanished in an instant, appearing in Ink City.
Ink City, Fengdu!
The ink-colored rain poured down.
Scorching hot blood energy surged, as if a blazing sun had risen within Fengdu, slowly ascending.
Li Che stood on the spacious streets of Ink City.
His gaze swept coldly.
Piles of shattered flesh and blood were scattered on the streets.
The bodies of the three top-tier, absolute apex, and great divine cultivators—Tian Dan God Sect's leader Gu Chang Qing, Vast Scholarly's Bai Buyi, and Dragon Tiger Sect's Zhao Chunqiu—were piled up.
In the moment of their deaths, Li Che didn't forget to collect their flesh and blood.
The rain poured down, ink-colored.
Piles of rotten flesh were scattered on the ground, soaked by the cold ink-colored rain.
Li Che's body, adorned in a black-inked robe with golden lotus patterns, fluttered in the wind.
His jet-black, robust hair stood like black lightning.
He slowly extended his arms, turning his back to the rotten flesh on the ground.
His five fingers spread wide.
Like a soul from the depths of the netherworld, a mournful wail echoed, as if a soul was crying and seeking a chance for rebirth.
"Soul, return..."
"Bound Deity!"
As the words fell, a howling wind blew between heaven and earth, as if the sound of clanging ice-cold chains filled the air.
One after another, black shadows entangled in chains emerged, like inflated balloons, rising from the piles of rotten flesh behind Li Che.
A twisted figure stood up.
The fallen enemy cultivators would become our new allies! Teammates, the more we fight, the more we gain, right?
Li Che's eyes opened and closed, and a flash of ink-colored light passed through his gaze.
---
Ink-colored liquid flowed, as if someone was painting with a brush, accompanied by the sound of scratching, lightly inking on white paper.
Painting mountains, painting water, painting heaven and earth!
