Chapter 816: Chapter 426: Survive
In the Xing Chan Pseudo-God's plan.
If Li Yuan had a Pseudo-God Puppet by his side, or a Pseudo-God bodyguard for protection, then, he would view the guard force and give up the assassination, or directly self-destruct to gamble with his life.
If Li Yuan was alone, the plan was to first try to directly kill Li Yuan with two Secret Treasures, and if the Secret Treasure assault failed, then attempt to kill him with his own strength.
However!
Xing Chan Pseudo-God overlooked two things, first, Li Yuan's personal strength was far greater than he had imagined.
Second, in addition to bestowing Li Yuan with a Pseudo-God Puppet, Jiang Yuan True God had also arranged for another extremely powerful Pseudo-God ‘Shadow Demon Pseudo-God' to secretly protect Li Yuan, as a double layer of protection.
And the Shadow Demon Pseudo-God had been hiding in the dark all along, even unbeknownst to Xing Chan Pseudo-God.
“Flying Heaven Level, yet capable of unleashing such terrifying power, what an astonishing, peerless genius. No wonder such a formidable Pseudo-God would secretly protect him.”
“No matter what, I've done my best.”
“I hope, this death-defying strike, can kill Xu Yuan.”
“I hope, Black Blade True God will do his best to take care of my family.” In the instant of self-destruction, the powerful soul of a Pseudo-God Level allowed Xing Chan Pseudo-God's thoughts to momentarily pause, shining with many thoughts in the last moment of his life.
It's just a pity, that he was doomed not to see the outcome.
…”Boom!” That terrifying soul fluctuation instantly invaded Li Yuan's Spiritual World.
This soul fluctuation, like a sharp spike, brutally collided with Li Yuan's soul core.
Xing Chan Pseudo-God knew that Li Yuan had overcome the Nine Sounds Realm, his Spiritual Will much stronger than the vast majority of Semi-Divines.
However, he judged based on Li Yuan merely being at Flying Heaven Level, and the exceedingly long time it took to traverse through the Nine Sounds Realm… that Li Yuan's Spiritual Will should be equivalent to the threshold of a Pseudo-God.
Normally speaking, Xing Chan Pseudo-God's judgment wasn't wrong.
But in the past two months, Li Yuan had been cultivating the “Heart Illusion Six Realms”, and although he had not yet reached Perfection in the First Realm, his will had improved and reached level 55.
In terms of the strength of will, Li Yuan was already close to many Peak of Pseudo-God powerhouses.
Coupled with an almost Pseudo-God soul, Li Yuan's Spiritual Will was on par with a regular Pseudo-God.
Moreover.
Li Yuan also possessed the ‘Thousand Heart Lotus Platform' guarding his soul, a supreme Pseudo-God Artifact, prepared specifically for Li Yuan's Flying Heaven Semi-Divine stage by Ancient Flame True God.
“Soul Attack?”
“A soul attack from a Peak of Pseudo-God, trying to shake me? What a joke.” Li Yuan instantly sensed it.
It could be said that facing Pseudo-God powerhouses, what Li Yuan feared least was the other party launching a Soul Attack.
“Whoosh~”
Inside Li Yuan's Spiritual World, the Thousand Heart Lotus Platform rotated, its layers of lotus leaves spinning, easily weakening the strength of this soul attack by more than seventy percent.
The remaining small portion of might that struck against Li Yuan's Spiritual Will did cause his soul to tremble, but still, it was resisted.
It could be said, most Peak of Pseudo-God soul attacks, let alone annihilating Li Yuan, would find it very difficult to even affect him.
But for Li Yuan, the biggest impact was not from the soul attack, but instead—the self-destruction!
A self-destruction of a divine being unleashed might unrelated to Law Comprehension but related to the remaining Origin Power within the body, effectively letting one's lifetime of cultivated Origin Power explode completely in an instant.
The might was boundless!
Speaking slowly, in the instant Li Yuan blocked the soul attack, that overwhelming energy flood had already impacted in all directions.
The first to bear the brunt was the Shadow Demon Pseudo-God.
“Self-destruction?”
“Not good! I can withstand it, but Xu Yuan is already severely injured, even just the aftermath could likely be unbearable for him.” A thought flashed through the mind of Shadow Demon Pseudo-God, whose mission was to protect Xu Yuan.
His hand turned the divine sword fiercely toward the fiery energy flood, unleashing a terrifying collision instantly, obliterating a great deal of the impact's might.
“Boom~”
Following that, the body of Shadow Demon Pseudo-God rapidly grew larger, becoming like a giant, with large amounts of black mist crazily spreading in all directions, instantly engulfing a vast area, including Li Yuan.
Attempting to protect Li Yuan.
The self-destructive impact was simply too fast. In a rush, the first approach was to use the weapon to consume as much might as possible, followed by unfolding a large Domain, which was the method Shadow Demon Pseudo-God could think of to protect Li Yuan.
“Boom~”
But the impact of a Peak of Pseudo-God self-destruction was so terrifying, and although Shadow Demon Pseudo-God was only impacted in one of the directions and he was trying his utmost to block it,
The layers of black mist were still instantly starting to dissipate and dissolve in the face of the terrifying fiery flood.
That surging fiery flood finally swept in all directions, also impacting towards Li Yuan.
“Pseudo-God Puppet.”
“Block it for me.”
Li Yuan gritted his teeth, knowing all too well that just before, he had continuously been enduring the assault of Law Treasures, unable to channel them into the Ancient Divine Palace, and now this impact had come extremely quickly.
Fortunately! Just as Xing Chan Pseudo-God's attack tried to forcefully push outward, Li Yuan was also desperately trying to move his Pseudo-God Puppet outside… in the instant Xing Chan Pseudo-God self-destructed.
The Pseudo-God Puppet finally appeared.
“Roar~”
Like a giant spider, the huge Pseudo-God Puppet instantly spread its eight limbs, two limbs firmly on the ground, like a mountain standing in front of Li Yuan.
The other six limbs, however, swung dazzling blades of light in an instant, trying their best to resist the fiery impact.
“Boom!”
That terrifying shockwave finally arrived, firstly hitting the Pseudo-God Puppet's blades of light which weakened it layer by layer, and then again striking the colossal body of the Pseudo-God Puppet.
The self-destructive might of Xing Chan Pseudo-God was almost at the Pseudo-God Limit, and even after being weakened multiple times, it remained close to the level of might of a Peak of Pseudo-God.
“Boom~”
Despite its best efforts to resist, the Pseudo-God Puppet still struggled to keep its stance, its massive body toppling backwards in disarray, striking fiercely against Li Yuan's figure.
“Boom!”
Li Yuan's body was jarred by the impact from the Pseudo-God Puppet, his body shivering violently, the parts that had just recovered were once again deeply cracked.
Blood cascaded, bones snapped, and an abundance of fresh blood oozed from the ears, nose, mouth, and other organs, a truly horrifying sight.
Fortunately.
The self-destructive impact of the Pseudo-God Puppet had already weakened most of its might, leaving only a small part of it.
Li Yuan, with difficulty, blocked the last of the impact's aftermath.
He and the Pseudo-God Puppet finally both steadied themselves.
“Terrifying.”
“Did I survive?” A tinge of excitement surged in Li Yuan's heart as he had survived such a dreadful assassination attempt.
Had his strength been slightly weaker.
Had the Pseudo-God Puppet emerged from the Storage Magical Treasure a bit later.
Had that mysterious Pseudo-God not arrived in time… in any case, had any aspect been just a bit off, he likely would have fallen today.
“Boom~”
Flames from other directions continued to spread in all directions, causing the earth to tremble wildly, enormous pavilions collapsing.
Even the ground's incredibly tough rocks were shattered, countless pebbles scattering.
A scene of utter devastation.
Normally.
The self-destruction of a Peak of Pseudo-God could envelope a range of over a thousand kilometers.
However, this place was Yuan Country Capital, Origin Power Arrays spanned every area, and every building had formations and restrictions to greatly reduce the aftershock of the energy impact.
At the same time.
The Capital Array in the void was fully activated, strands of fiery red light descending, gushing from all around, striving to diminish the impact of the shockwaves.
Eventually, the self-destruction merely affected an area of barely more than ten kilometers and gradually returned to tranquility.
Whoosh!
With a single thought from Li Yuan, he retracted the huge Pseudo-God Puppet in front of him back into the Storage Magical Treasure.
The Pseudo-God Puppet was not easy to refine and its value was incredibly astonishing. Many civilizations and clans relied on it to endure for millions of years, such an item was indispensable.
To flaunt it so carelessly?
Such a treasured relic was far too eye-catching, likely to attract the covetous glances of some Pseudo-God Powerhouses.
Moreover, such trump card measures.
If constantly revealed, would lose their effectiveness as a trump card.
An enemy would easily be able to take countermeasures the moment they decide to take action.
The unknown is the most terrifying.
“Thank you, senior, for saving me.” Li Yuan bowed in gratitude, as without that Pseudo-God Powerhouse's rescue, he would have definitely died.
Li Yuan also felt full of gratitude in his heart.
“It wasn't me who saved you.”
“It was you who saved yourself.” The voice of the Demon Shadow Pseudo-God was harsh and hoarse: “To think a Flying Heaven Level… could unleash Semi-Divine Limit strength, this is truly unheard of.”
In regards to the strength Li Yuan revealed.
The Demon Shadow Pseudo-God was quite astonished in his heart.
“Moreover, if you truly wish to give thanks, then thank the King.” The Demon Shadow Pseudo-God spoke in a low voice: “I am here to protect you by the King's command. Not wishing to reveal the truth to you prematurely, to prevent complacency, I haven't shown myself until now…
“Therefore, I was far from you, and when I came to save you, I couldn't arrive instantly.” The Demon Shadow Pseudo-God explained patiently.
Li Yuan nodded slightly, understanding that no protective measure was absolutely foolproof.
Most were reactive in approach.
“I will report to the King and swiftly clarify who is behind the assassination attempt. Presumably, there will be an explanation for you, and possibly compensation, given that the assassination is likely related to your identity.” The Demon Shadow Pseudo-God spoke: “Now, I shall leave first.”
Whoosh~
The form of the Demon Shadow Pseudo-God became increasingly indistinct, disappearing swiftly like flowing water from Li Yuan's senses.
“Has he gone into hiding again?”
“He even kept it from Sister Gu You?” Li Yuan inwardly sighed, his gaze sweeping in all directions.
Then, Li Yuan turned into a streak of light, rapidly flying towards the Nine Sound Building.
After a while.
Bystanders from all around in the streets started to whisper about the great battle—such a scene was rare for many Flying Heaven and even Pseudo-Gods.
Some passersby even perished from the blast,
“So strong?”
“The end must have been a fierce battle between two Divines, but how could Xu Yuan, a mere Flying Heaven Level, survive such a terrifying aftermath of the explosion?”
“Can a Flying Heaven Level be this strong? To withstand a Law Treasure without perishing?” These onlookers, for the most part, had their own measure.
Quickly.
The news of Li Yuan being targeted for assassination by a Divine, along with the terrifying power he unleashed, spread at a startling speed throughout the Yuan Country Capital.
