Chapter 496: The Celestial Imperial Pool, the Land of Resurrection!
Chapter 496: The Celestial Imperial Pool, the Land of Resurrection!
2024-12-11
The majestic Heavenly Sound reverberated and spread far and wide.
At this moment, two boundless and majestic Energy Auras rose up like a mighty force, causing the Chaos Void to tremble incessantly, and the intensity only increased, resembling boiling water churning.
It was as if the collapse and destruction of the Universe were unfolding within the hearts of every living being in the Thirty-Three Heavens. Yet, this was merely the confrontation of two Energy Auras, and they hadn't even engaged in battle yet!
The sheer power of the Dao Realm was evident.
Severely injured and lying on the ground, Li Jing's seven apertures bled, and his expression was filled with terror. Gone was the fearless and reckless demeanor he had displayed earlier.
A
However, if two Dao Realm Powerhouses clashed, a moment of carelessness could mean his true demise, with no chance of resurrection.
Death would be final!
Even if the Celestial Court produced another Ultimate HuanYuan Tower-Holding Li Heavenly King in the future, it wouldn't be him!
Countless thoughts flooded his mind, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
I
Battles in the Dao Realm couldn't be engaged in lightly; at this moment, they were still in a stalemate. However, the fight on Qin Zheng's side was at its most intense.
Just then—
Boom!
Boom!
Two deafening explosions reverberated.
In the distance, two of the three towering figures staggered uncontrollably, and then, like collapsing Heaven Pillars, they fell towards the ground.
Simultaneously, two Great Ways manifested above the battlefield, only to shatter and dissipate before their very eyes.
Two more Ultimate HuanYuans had fallen!
Only one of the Four Great Heavenly Kings remained!
"Evil Demon!!"
A frenzied roar echoed through the four directions.
"Kill!!!"
The Heavenly Soldiers and Generals' cries followed closely.
A
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Great Ways manifested and then shattered into pieces before their eyes, disappearing completely. In just that one sweep of the Radiant Light, over a dozen Heavenly Soldiers and Generals perished.
He turned around and looked at the Celestial Dog, still sealed nearby. Reaching out, he brought it before him and waved his hand lightly, causing the dog's head, which had been severely damaged and difficult to heal, to grow back quickly.
"Good doggie."
The Celestial Dog was slightly dazed but quickly wagged its tail, behaving like an ordinary household pet, opening its mouth to show its eagerness to please.
But in the next moment, the hand that had been caressing its head turned into an unyielding iron palm, and with one strike, it smashed the dog's head, instantly obliterating it. The power of Ultimate HuanYuan penetrated to the minutest level, leaving not even a trace of blood mist, as the dog completely turned to ashes and vanished.
L
"Even you..."
Before he could finish his sentence—
Buzz!
A crisp Sword Hum suddenly rang out, followed by a terrifying Sword Intent that reverberated through the four directions. Then, like fireworks and firecrackers, a series of explosions echoed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Great Ways swiftly manifested and disintegrated.
Li Jing's heart sank, realizing that the Celestial Court's encirclement and suppression campaign had utterly failed. Now, it was time for the Dao Realm Powerhouses to take the stage!
A
If the Dao Realm Powerhouses were to engage in battle, and in his current state, he were to be affected, it would undoubtedly lead to his complete demise, with no chance of resurrection.
If a non-Dao Realm existence were to strike him down before the Dao Realm confrontation, he could take the opportunity to escape and ascend back to the Celestial Court. Although he would regress in cultivation after resurrecting, being in the Celestial Court, a sacred place for cultivation, with his accumulated foundation, he would quickly return to his peak.
T
Could he ask this powerhouse to strike him down, allowing him to revive from the Celestial Imperial Pool?
Li Jing's mind swirled with countless thoughts.
The next instant—
Swish!
A gust of wind tore through the void.
Boom!!
A broken spear shaft, its tip embedded in the ground, emitted a faint heat, like a fire extinguished by water.
Then, another impact.
Bang!
A headless body, its limbs severed, crashed in front of him.
Nezha!
Li Jing's pupils constricted slightly, but his joy soon overwhelmed him.
Nezha defeated, the Four Great Heavenly Kings, and Thundergod and Thundermother had fallen, but the two 'Heavenly' Dao Realm experts remained unharmed.
There was still a glimmer of hope!
If the evil demon from Yuan Pass was enraged and tried to eliminate him, he could avoid the battle and return to the Heavenly Court!
As he was thinking this, ripples appeared in the void, and a figure in a golden-patterned black robe stepped out.
Qin Zheng, seeing the figure not far away, clasped his hands and bowed, saying, "Junior thanks the Celestial Venerable for the assistance!"
Although he was fighting in the distance, he had also divided his attention to keep an eye on this side. If the Celestial Venerable hadn't intervened, Li Jing would have truly threatened him with the lives of the beings in Yuan Pass.
In such a situation, even if he could eventually win, he would have suffered some losses and wouldn't be as secure as he was now.
Moreover, the aura from 'Heaven' was currently confronting the Dao Realm experts in the Nine Heavens. If the powerful being hadn't intervened, the Heavenly Court would have already taken action against him for killing their soldiers and generals.
The Celestial Venerable smiled slightly, his gaze towards Qin Zheng filled with satisfaction. He nodded and said, "I thought you would need at least a few hundred years to return, despite your formidable talent."
When they parted ways, he had advised Qin Zheng that he must either cultivate to the Ultimate Primordial state or collect the complete Azure Heaven Mirror before returning to the Thirty-Three Heavens.
Although Qin Zheng had made significant progress, he had not yet reached the Ultimate Primordial state but had only attained the Advanced Primordial state, which meant he had successfully collected the complete Azure Heaven Mirror!
And all this had happened in just over a decade!
What Qin Zheng had failed to accomplish in millions of years, he had now achieved in such a short time.
Indeed, he was the one destined by fate!
The Celestial Venerable sighed with admiration in his heart, but his smile remained as he said, "You've done very well."
Qin Zheng smiled.
At this moment, the auras of the two 'Heavenly' Dao Realm experts continued to clash in the sky, and it was still far from a time for greetings.
T
Despite such severe injuries, his vitality remained as vigorous as a blazing fire, and he was far from the brink of death. Yet, a force within him was constantly eroding his vitality.
Qin Zheng's gaze intensified as he spoke, "His will is strong. I can't kill him with a single strike, so I can only suppress and slowly erode him."
With his mastery of sealing techniques and the support of the Transcendent Armament, Nezha was no match for him.
However, if Qin Zheng wanted to quickly eliminate Nezha, it was beyond his current abilities. He could only slowly erode him like water grinding away at stone.
Unless he used the Azure Heaven Mirror!
But with the appearance of the Dao Realm experts from the Heavenly Court, he dared not expose this divine artifact for the time being.
The Celestial Venerable nodded slightly, showing no intention to intervene. Instead, he turned his gaze to Li Jing and said, "How do you plan to deal with this evil demon?"
Li Jing's heart stirred at these words. He maintained a calm demeanor and spoke in a cold tone, "This evil demon is only at the Advanced Primordial state, relying on a few divine artifacts to achieve his current state."
"I, the Divine Being, am severely injured at this moment. I dare not discard my divine artifacts to fight you. Let me see how much you truly weigh!"
"Life or death depends on strength!"
He still felt uneasy, for although the opponent was only at the Advanced Primordial state, the Treasures of the Three Pure Ones were Transcendent-level divine armaments, capable of thoroughly slaying even him!
Qin Zheng's gaze shifted upwards, his eyes turning icy as he looked at Li Jing.
This guy was extremely cunning, using the lives of the beings in Yuan Pass as a threat from the start, and now he truly intended to carry out his threat.
If the circumstances allowed, Qin Zheng would have considered killing Li Jing outright.
However, Li Jing's power was not far behind Nezha's, and Qin Zheng couldn't easily eliminate him like he did the Four Great Heavenly Kings and Thundergod and Thundermother.
Without hesitation, Qin Zheng spoke, "First, seal and bind him. We'll deal with him after this matter is resolved!"
The Celestial Venerable nodded lightly.
Qin Zheng understood the intention behind the Azure Heaven Mirror's ability to eradicate the pollution within these Celestial Beings, ensuring their permanent demise without any chance of resurrection.
However, with the attention of the Heavenly Court focused on this place, Qin Zheng had no intention of revealing this divine artifact just yet.
This aligned with his own thoughts.
DaoXIng Celestial Zun waved his flywhisk, and thousands of silver threads seemed to sweep across Li Jing and Nezha, instantly sealing these two powerful Primordial Chaos Beings.
Li Jing's heart was suddenly filled with inexplicable fear, as if thick dark clouds were gathering overhead. He shouted without regard for his dignity, "Evil demon! Coward! You dare not face me!"
As DaoXIng Celestial Zun waved his sleeves again, the arrogant shouting turned into terrified cries, "Heavenly Emperor, save me!!!"
Before the words faded, the sleeves swept over the two Celestial Court Beings, and they instantly vanished from their original spots.
At this moment, the Celestial Court's forces, sent to suppress Qin Zheng, were completely subdued. Every Primordial Chaos Being, whether Heavenly Soldiers and Generals or other Celestial Beings, was either slain or suppressed.
As for the lower-ranked Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, they had been knocked away by the initial shockwaves at the start of the battle and were nowhere to be seen.
Qin Zheng looked up at the 'sky' and saw two Grand Suns, their true forms obscured, emitting vast and boundless energy auras that continuously clashed.
But with the help of the Azure Heaven Mirror, he could see that as the auras collided, they were also fiercely eroding each other!
His eyes narrowed in realization. The two Dao Realm Powerhouses weren't just confronting each other; they had been engaging in a different form of combat from the very beginning! No wonder the Celestial Court's forces had been defeated, and the Dao Realm hadn't reacted until now.
Qin Zheng's heart stirred, and he wanted to use the Azure Heaven Mirror within his Inner World to observe the battle between the two Dao Realms more clearly.
But in the next moment—
Crack!
Boom!
The Chaos Void cracked, and the two Dao Realm auras unleashed a thunderous roar, like a flood pouring through the crack in the Chaos Void, disappearing into the unknown.
The commotion didn't last long; the Chaos Void healed, and the auras from the two Grand Suns gradually calmed.
"You're heavily injured, and I spared your life not long ago. With only four-fifths of your original strength remaining, you dare to meddle in affairs?"
A majestic Heavenly Sound echoed from the infinite heights.
Qin Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly at the words, and then he heard a disdainful cold laugh, seemingly mocking, "Don't act so high and mighty. It's not me who's afraid of death!"
A pause, followed by a cold voice filled with defiance, "I'll ask you this: either hand over the Yuan Pass Origin Void, or join me in the Chaotic War!"
The voice from the Nine Heavens fell silent for a moment before speaking again, "The Yuan Pass Origin Void, yes, but not the rebel who killed the Heavenly Court's deities."
Qin Zheng's expression froze slightly. Although he hadn't revealed the Azure Heaven Mirror, the appearance of the complete Treasures of the Three Pure Ones had caught the attention of the Dao Realm of the Heavenly Court.
He immediately communicated with the Azure Heaven Mirror's spatial abilities and the Virtue Scroll's 'Walking Across Heavens'.
If their Dao Realm Powerhouse couldn't withstand the pressure and agreed to the Heavenly Court's demands, he would have to rely on his own power to escape.
But his worries seemed unnecessary. DaoXIng Celestial Zun stepped forward and patted his shoulder gently. When Qin Zheng turned to look, DaoXIng Celestial Zun shook his head slightly, indicating there was no need for concern.
Indeed, in the next moment—
"Scram! This child has my gratitude, and if you want to take him away, you might as well declare war on me!"
A thunderous shout echoed through the heavens.
The Grand Sun in the 'sky' began to strengthen, and its aura rapidly rose again, causing the Thirty-Three Heavens to tremble once more.
"If words won't do, then fight!"
"Whoever wins takes him!"
A voice filled with killing intent resounded, and the Chaos Void between the heavens twisted into a massive vortex, seemingly encompassing even the Thirty-Three Heavens.
"Last chance, fight or not!"
This was an outright provocation! But the Grand Sun in the Nine Heavens remained silent.
At this moment, Qin Zheng felt an incredibly high-quality, profound power descend from the infinite heights and land directly on his head.
Was this an arbitrary, direct attack?!
Qin Zheng's heart thundered, and he instantly activated the Azure Heaven Mirror and 'Walking Across Heavens'!
