Chapter 523: Gods Follow, Immortals Defy - Wǔ Xiān Unextinguished, the Great Dao’s Boat Breaks and Rebuilds [Monthly Votes] (Part 1)
Crack! Crack!
The sky was dark and overcast, with dense leaden clouds. A fierce storm raged above, with raindrops pelting down like bullets, splashing and exploding on the river, creating endless ripples.
Mysterious Fog churned, like a colossal curtain, obscuring any view beyond it, making it impossible to see what lay on the other side.
The raindrops, falling from the sky, struck the Mysterious Fog, causing misty ripples to burst forth.
The sound was like that of large and small pearls falling onto a jade plate, piercing through the Mysterious Fog, producing a mournful wail, akin to a roar of anger.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ——
On the banks of the Nine Dragons River, at the Anger Cliff Rocks.
The river roared, churning up white foam like a thousand piles of snow, rolling and surging, rising and falling.
The howling wind roared and raged, intertwining and becoming the true culprit behind the river’s turbulent waves.
On the jagged cliff rocks, figures stood, their bodies swaying in the wind, trembling uncontrollably.
Feng Zhi Qi, cold and motionless, stood on the cliff rock, staring blankly at the surging Nine Dragons River, his gaze fixed on the undulating Mysterious Fog.
Zhao Fangzhou, Nan Li Huo, Tang Xie Jia, Tang San Jia, and other strong figures from the Qianyuan Divine Sect were also plunged into a deep silence, the atmosphere heavy and oppressive.
The battle that had taken place within the Ghost Deficiency had been shocking. According to the fleeing cultivators, a terrifying Divine War had erupted inside the Ghost Deficiency of Jin Guang City!
Many of the gods in the Ghost Deficiency had awakened and taken action, attempting to force the death of the Third Prince’s temple god. Additionally, these gods had planned to capture Xī Xī, intending to use Yulian’s Daughter to threaten the Third Prince.
Nan Li Huo and the others felt a chill run down their spines, imagining just how dire the situation inside must have been.
And Li Che, the Wǔ Xiān of the Human World, had, within the Ghost Deficiency, taken a desperate path to protect his daughter Xī Xī. He had abandoned the Wǔ Xiān path, transforming into the Deity Path, becoming a god of the Ghost Deficiency, and fought against the gods, buying a chance for survival.
As for the final outcome, they were still in the dark.
The Mysterious Fog swirled and intertwined, seemingly becoming incredibly calm.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
A sound of something breaking through the air echoed, and a figure rapidly approached, stepping on the void, the air seemingly solidifying, with raindrops freezing in mid-air.
A powerful Divine Tribulation aura expanded like a tidal wave.
The figure was none other than Lü Qiankun, the founding master of the Qianyuan Divine Sect.
Lü Qiankun wore a simple robe, his expression heavy.
"Greetings, Ancestor."
Feng Zhi Qi and the other elders of the Qianyuan Divine Sect all paid their respects.
Lü Qiankun nodded, standing on the Anger Cliff Rock, his gaze fixed on the Ghost Deficiency shrouded in Mysterious Fog. As a Divine Tribulation expert, he could sense the terrifying pressure beyond the Mysterious Fog.
It was a kind of pressure that made his soul tremble with fear, indicating the presence of an extremely terrifying being beyond the Mysterious Fog.
Even the residual shockwaves of the battle left him feeling a chill of despair.
This was enough to show just how terrifying the battle within the Ghost Deficiency had been!
Lü Qiankun had also heard about the battle in the Ghost Deficiency of Jin Guang City, which had even involved the will of an Immortal Divine Being!
As the sect master of the Qianyuan Divine Sect, Lü Qiankun knew the significance of an Immortal Divine Being. They were the elite among gods, the supreme existence, unable to descend into the mortal world, whether in the human realm or the Ghost Deficiency, due to their overwhelming power, which the heavens could not tolerate.
And this battle had involved such an existence.
"Ancestor... is Elder Li really not coming back?"
Feng Zhi Qi took a deep breath, his voice tinged with melancholy.
He was a peerless Wǔ Xiān, a shining sun in the world of martial arts, a guiding light for countless martial artists. Now, he had withered and faded within the Ghost Deficiency, a profound regret.
"Elder Li transformed his Wǔ Xiān body into the Deity Path, becoming a god and gaining immense power to battle the gods. He received corresponding strength and thus had to pay the corresponding price. The heavens are fair and just..."
"It’s not just Wǔ Xiān; if Li Che were to return to the mortal world in his god form, he would inevitably face the wrath and annihilation of the Will of Heaven and Earth..."
"Elder Li’s transformation from Wǔ Xiān to a god has made him incredibly powerful. If it were just a Divine Tribulation, he might be able to withstand the forces of the Will of Heaven and Earth. But for Elder Li to have become a god... it’s impossible; the heavens and earth would not allow him to descend into the mortal world."
Lü Qiukun sighed deeply, his voice tinged with regret.
The surrounding crowd’s expressions darkened, their hearts heavy with sorrow.
How could things have come to this?
With Li Che’s unparalleled cultivation and combat prowess as a Wǔ Xiān, he was virtually unstoppable in the mortal world, with no one able to stand against him.
The Qianyuan Divine Sect might have risen to become one of the top divine sects, perhaps even rivaling the former glory of Qitian Temple. As long as Li Wǔ Xiān remained alive, the future of the Qianyuan Divine Sect could surpass the peak prosperity of Qitian Temple!
Alas, there are no ifs in life, and the world is unpredictable. Who could have foreseen that a battle targeting the Third Prince Temple’s divine spirit would have such a wide-ranging impact, with the gods’ attention turning to Xī Xī?
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
Suddenly.
Lü Qiukun’s heart trembled, his hair danced wildly, and his eyes narrowed in disbelief as he stared at the Nine Dragons River.
On the river’s surface, a dense fog had begun to roll in, thick and oppressive, as if gathered from all directions to form a thick curtain.
At this moment, the curtain was trembling, shaking violently!
Everyone felt their hair stand on end.
Lü Qiukun’s divine power surged, intertwining with the forces of calamity to form a protective field around Feng Zhi Qi and the others. He was ready to immediately lead the young ones to safety if the situation turned dire.
Boom!
A sound like the collapse of heaven and earth echoed.
Then, the Mysterious Fog was torn apart from within, as if ripped in two by an overwhelming force. Even a Divine Tribulation cultivator would find it difficult to tear through such dense Mysterious Fog.
The fog parted like a stage curtain, splitting to the sides.
A blurry, indistinct figure stepped out, one step at a time, radiating a powerful aura that burst forth like a flood breaking through a dam.
Lü Qiukun and the others were buffeted by a fierce wind, the oppressive pressure rolling over them. Even Lü Qiukun, a Divine Tribulation cultivator, felt as if an invisible hand had clutched his heart tightly.
How terrifying...
A God!
This was undoubtedly the aura of a god who had ignited the Godfire!
Lü Qiukun stumbled backward on the rocky cliff, the entire cliff trembling, and the river water was pressed down hundreds of feet, as if solidified by the pressure.
Feng Zhi Qi and the others felt their blood circulation becoming extremely sluggish and difficult.
"This is..."
"A god?!"
They gasped for breath, their hearts racing.
The figure emerging from the Mysterious Fog was powerful and terrifying, instilling an instinctive fear in their hearts!
Lü Qiukun released a one-disaster Divine Tribulation aura, struggling to resist the overwhelming force.
"A god... how dare he step into the mortal world? This will invite the wrath and annihilation of the Will of Heaven and Earth! The heavens and earth will be enraged, raining down world-ending calamities. A god walking among mortals will only bring destruction!"
Lü Qiukun’s face was grim.
They all stared at the blurry figure in the Mysterious Fog.
The world seemed to be filled with the crisp sound of footsteps.
Step by step, they echoed from the depths.
Jet-black, robust hair danced wildly, like streaks of black lightning, intertwined with divine power that swirled like a mist, coalescing into Dà Dào Shén Wén that entwined around the figure.
Thump, thump, thump—
Ripples spread through the void, as if the sound of a heartbeat.
Countless divine patterns intertwined, like chains of the great order dancing wildly.
Suddenly, Lü Qiukun’s body shook!
His eyes widened in disbelief!
"This is..."
"Elder Li?!"
Tears almost welled up in Lü Qiukun’s eyes, stung by the fierce gusts of air.
Despite this, he finally recognized the figure stepping out of the Mysterious Fog!
Li Che!
Li Che, the Wǔ Xiān who had become a god!
Feng Zhi Qi, Nan Li Huo, Zhao Fangzhou, and the others also recognized Li Che, their voices filled with shock and amazement.
Of course, their faces also showed a hint of joy, glad that Li Che was still alive.
Boom—!!!
Li Che emerged from Guǐquē.
Tearing through the Mysterious Fog, his divine power spread uncontrollably, as if stimulated by an invisible force from the heavens and earth, releasing every thread of divinity.
The oppressive aura emanating from his body could not be contained, spreading out, powerful and terrifying.
Gods on earth would be eradicated by the Will of Heaven and Earth!
Was Li Che actually planning to forcefully breach the Ghost Defile and step into the human world, returning to the mortal realm?!
When Lu Qiankun, Feng Zhi Qi, and the others saw Li Che tear through the Mysterious Fog and step out, their hearts were stirred with shock and awe.
Li Che also noticed them, his gaze falling upon them. He had long sensed the presence of his acquaintances by the Nine Dragons River.
Now, as he emerged from the Mysterious Fog and met them, a peculiar emotion welled up in his heart.
A rare smile flickered across Li Che's face, and he nodded to his old friends.
However.
Li Che soon lifted his head, his brows furrowing sharply.
The Heaven and Earth Chessboard floated above his head, its intersecting lines forming a chessboard that encompassed the sky, obscuring the entire dome of the heavens.
It was as if countless stars adorned its surface, attempting to isolate the Will of Heaven and Earth.
But at this moment, dark clouds gathered in the sky, with flickering currents of lightning rolling within, and surging Dao Divine Scripts intertwining like waves. Order chains danced wildly, coalescing into the terrifying Heaven's Vengeful Blade!
The Heaven's Vengeful Blade was a manifestation of the Will of Heaven and Earth's wrath, possessing an extremely formidable destructive power!
Li Che focused his gaze and could see ancient runes gathering and pulsating with energy on the Heaven's Vengeful Blade.
The void distorted, and the space before the blade seemed to shatter, annihilated by an invisible force.
However, compared to the nine-rune blade that had once executed Lao Ban's Bronze Pot, this blade now bore only four runes!
One of those ancient runes was one Li Che had himself comprehended and condensed, and it felt particularly familiar to him.
A four-rune Heaven's Vengeful Blade, more powerful than the one faced by the Young Dragon Emperor when he reignited his Godfire, restored his divine power, and nearly broke through the barrier to reach the Dao Fusion stage!
Its might would be even more terrifying!
"Can't shield it, huh?"
Li Che sighed softly.
The shielding ability of the Chess Sage Dao Fruit beneath the Five Transcendences was indeed still lacking.
While it might be able to shield the senses of cultivators, the Will of Heaven and Earth in its enraged state was not so easily deceived.
Could he withstand the four-rune Heaven's Vengeful Blade?
Li Che shook his head. Even if he could, there was no point in trying to block it. Not only would it be meaningless, but it would also be a provocation to the Will of Heaven and Earth, a suicidal act.
As someone who treaded carefully in this world, Li Che had no intention of courting death.
He simply wanted to cultivate in peace, grow stronger, and quietly watch his daughter live an immortal life.
So, he would never do anything suicidal.
He hadn't ascended to the Nine Heavens to reunite with his daughter; he wouldn't court death and be eradicated by the Will of Heaven and Earth.
Looking up at the surging Will of Heaven and Earth, Li Che's mind stirred, and he pushed the Heaven and Earth Chessboard to its limit, the intersecting lines of the chessboard glowing with increasingly bright starlight.
The ancient runes on the Heaven's Vengeful Blade flickered and slowed for a moment.
But the next moment, they continued to charge up...
Li Che sighed. It seemed even this wouldn't work.
However, when Li Che sensed the maturity of the Chess Sage Dao Fruit, he found that under the threat of the Will of Heaven and Earth, the Dao Fruit's maturity was rapidly increasing.
Indeed, pressure was the driving force...
Even for a Dao Overlord, the same principle applied. With a blade hanging over his head, his motivation would be as strong as a donkey in the landlord's house!
Snapping his fingers, Li Che's mind stirred once more.
Mo Cheng Fengdu.
Li Che's Sovereign Avatar, who was on the Sovereign Tower, suddenly opened his eyes. Ink-black raindrops the size of beans exploded in the air, distorting the atmosphere. Then, a black chess piece suddenly expanded and twisted, transforming into the form of Xie Yunshen.
Fanning his feather fan, his white robes pristine, Xie Yunshen floated in the empty space of the Sovereign Tower, bowing to Li Che.
"Lord."
Xie Yunshen said with utmost respect.
"Lord, I am leading the imperial army on the way to Xiaoling Temple in Xiling Dao. I have already gathered information on the whereabouts of Master Lv Tai Bai and will soon meet up with him as per your instructions."
Li Che's Sovereign Avatar, with its jet-black hair hanging down and fluttering like black flames, nodded.
"Loan me your luck power."
Li Che said.
Xie Yunshen was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, realizing that something must have gone wrong on Li Che's side.
Li Che didn't hold back. Using luck power to conceal one's divine aura was a suggestion from Su Da. Given Xie Yunshen's expertise in luck power, he should understand this.
However, to ensure stability, Li Che snapped his fingers.
instantly, Su Da, the goddess, was summoned by Li Che through soul summoning.
Buzz—
As soon as Su Da appeared, her nine tails danced wildly in the sky, her powerful divine aura spreading out like a force that could destroy the heavens and earth.
"Empress Su?!"
National Advisor Xie Yunshen naturally recognized Su Da. His eyes narrowed in surprise, but he was even more astonished by the divine aura emanating from her.
Xie Yunshen drew a sharp breath, and Su Da was also somewhat taken aback, her stunning face trembling.
She never would have thought...
The most favored and trusted confidant of the Great Jing Emperor had already become Li Che's soul summoning!
Thinking about how she herself had become Li Che's soul summoning, Su Da couldn't help but think that the Great Jing Emperor was the biggest ox-headed man in the world!
"Using luck power to conceal divine aura? To walk among mortals?"
After hearing Su Da's explanation, Xie Yunshen immediately understood.
"Luck power indeed has this effect", Xie Yunshen nodded. "However, once you wear the Golden Aura Robe, you cannot easily use divine powers or take action... If you do, the divine aura will leak, and the Will of Heaven and Earth will detect you."
Li Che nodded.
Xie Yunshen immediately got to work and quickly condensed two golden lotuses of luck!
These were the luck lotuses of the Mystical Fog Divine Sect and the Celestial Pillar Divine Sect, which he had conquered.
Under Xie Yunshen's finger movements, the petals of the two golden lotuses spread out and transformed into a lotus cloak, draping over Li Che's Sovereign Avatar.
Feeling the shimmering golden glow of the Golden Aura Robe, Li Che's mind instantly became calm.
"Excellent."
Li Che praised.
Then, his Sovereign Avatar exploded, transforming into a swirling black ink mist.
...
On the Nine Dragons River.
The river water roared.
Li Che tore through the Mysterious Fog, drawing the attention of the Will of Heaven and Earth's guillotine. However, after the Sovereign Avatar exploded, the golden lotus cloak that had been draped over it now covered Li Che.
The Will of Heaven and Earth's lock seemed to be blocked by an invisible force.
Li Che felt as if he had transformed into the mountains and rivers of the world. The furious will of Heaven and Earth dissipated like a gentle breeze.
The Heaven's Vengeful Blade, which had been charged to the third ancient rune, gradually became transparent and faded away.
