Chapter 515: Clash of Divine Wills
by xennovelThe void splits inch by inch—a fractured tear, stacking up like cubes.
In that instant, the Daoist marks of heaven and earth erupted in a boiling frenzy, clanging and swaying, resounding ceaselessly.
All eyes converged on that shattered space, where a robed figure emerged riding a Xuan Turtle. His features were obscured by warped immortal aura, his eyes as deep and endless as a starry night.
The earthly Grand Inspector!
Everyone who saw him felt an intense shock in their hearts!
Who hasn’t heard of the mighty Imperial Watch of Jingguang City?
Dubbed as the earthly mouthpiece of the heavens and earth’s will, his true strength and cultivation had always been an enigma.
It was said he honed his skills deep within Bizarre Temple, but no one knew exactly where.
Even the renowned Lie Shen Pavilion, with its expert assassins, could not pinpoint his location within the sanctuary.
And today—
When the Martial Immortal on earth dared to defy the living gods of the Bizarre Temple Pantheon, the mysterious Grand Inspector emerged from the shattered space!
He had stepped forth as if born of rupture itself!
Li Che’s head of purple-gold hair whipped wildly as his burly frame shuddered. His towering figure spanned the skies above Jingguang City like a majestic mountain, radiating overwhelming momentum!
Clutching the Thunder Demon Three-Pronged Twin-Edged Blade with five fingers, his back roared like a great dragon. Seven Qimen Immortal Seeds whirled at high speed, while thick, dragon-like sinews spread from beneath his body, twitching and pulsing with terrifying roars!
The Martial Immortal’s aura reached its zenith—commanding the world with an invisible, surging force.
Even when facing a god who ignited divine flames, Li Che did not flinch an inch!
How could Li Che tolerate it when his daughter was being targeted for capture?
A murderous intent emanated from him like a tidal surge ready to blast the clouds apart.
Yet now, Li Che’s eyes gleamed with a mix of surprise and delight.
“Grand Inspector?”
Sure enough, it was the Grand Inspector!
That Xuan Turtle was all too familiar to Li Che.
Li Che was indeed taken aback—he never expected the Grand Inspector to hide his true strength so deeply!
At a time when he was face-to-face with divine flames and gods, the Grand Inspector had intervened to shield XiXi from the terrible divine tactics!
The earthly embodiment of the heavens’ will?
Li Che’s heart trembled as that notion surfaced—the credibility of that claim only deepened now!
The Grand Inspector struck!
The entire Jingguang City, indeed the whole mortal realm, was about to be shaken to its core as the winds of fate stirred in all directions!
His emergence seemed to captivate many hearts. Countless cultivators of the mortal realm stirred with excitement—who said that only Martial Immortals existed on earth? Was there no one to rival the gods?
The Grand Inspector unleashed his power, shattering and tearing apart the oppressive aura of the gods over Jingguang City!
Seated cross-legged on the back of the Xuan Turtle, his white robe billowed in the wind, surrounded by an intertwining, radiant glow.
In that dreamlike moment, his transcendent grace and immortal mien eclipsed even the divine aura, compelling onlookers to fall to their knees in reverence.
Ding, dong, ding—the sound of ancient bells resounded across the mortal realm and heaven alike!
It was as if a battle bell for war had tolled, or a funeral bell for the fallen was sounding!
Ha Shen, clad in silver armor, emanated dazzling divine light as countless Daoist marks cascaded around him, and his eyes blazed with resplendent godly brilliance.
“Grand Inspector of Gongshu Ghost Valley?”
In a tone devoid of emotion, Ha Shen’s voice broke the silence.
“Has the earthly will of heaven and earth truly blessed your form?”
“How intriguing—but you must know what it means to target a god today!”
Ha Shen said in a low, menacing tone.
Elsewhere, the Four Seas Dragon Clan’s Dragon King joined forces with the transformative Golden Toad and the Tuo Ta Arhat to besiege the recently revived Third Prince. Black flames erupted like a lotus of incendiary fire, terrifying in their intensity!
They clashed in shattered space, locked in a brutal, ferocious melee!
Yet when the Grand Inspector intervened, all eyes couldn’t help but turn towards him!
The one who bore the will of heaven and earth on earth was truly formidable.
After all, everyone knew how vital the heavenly will was to the gods!
Seated on the Xuan Turtle, the Grand Inspector’s gaze was profound and his eyes shone like the rosy morning sky.
“I wager my entire mortal realm by coming for the Daughter of Yulian…”
“This divine tide—standing with the Daughter of Yulian on earth?!”
Ha Shen spoke coolly, raising his silver spear slowly.
The Grand Inspector, still perched on the turtle, replied softly with an ethereal tone, “Talking of sides is futile—this lifetime’s Daughter of Yulian is not guilty; she has neither slaughtered the world nor spilled endless blood.”
“She’s only an eight-year-old girl. What crime could she possibly bear?”
“Every divine tide is different, each era its own. This Daughter of Yulian is not like before; perhaps her fate has finally reached its end.”
Behind Ha Shen, divine flame raged like a blazing sun, snatching away all brilliance from the heavens.
“Once you act, there’s no turning back—your move reflects the mortal realm’s stance. When the divine tide reaches its peak and Bizarre Temple merges completely with earth, the immortal will descends from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and the entire mortal realm will be purged!”
“That is the price of standing on the wrong side!”
Ha Shen roared as his silver spear quivered, and divine flame exploded into brilliant halos. A torrent of divine essence swirled behind him, manifesting as twelve magnificent pairs of divine wings!
The onslaught stirred and reverberated with interweaving divine light.
His silver spear stretched out as if slicing through the air; backlit by heavenly radiance, it tore through the void with a ferocious strike!
Dense, intertwining Daoist marks and chains of divine order rang out in resounding clamor!
That ferocious blow seemed to decide the outcome in a single strike!
Ha Shen and Ha God knew all too well that time was critical; they couldn’t afford to delay against Li Che and the Grand Inspector any longer.
They had to end it quickly—capture the Daughter of Yulian at once, using her to blackmail the Third Prince into reigniting the divine flame, reducing everything to ashes!
The Grand Inspector’s immortal aura rippled as his vague features flickered with determination. Facing Ha Shen’s devastating blow,
he raised both hands and traced through space as if time itself had solidified.
His hands, guided by the path of the Dao, tore open space as a bottomless abyss that swallowed away Ha Shen’s fierce strike!
It was as though he had shifted the attack to another dimension.
“What?!”
Ha Shen’s eyes narrowed in shock—his all-out attack had been effortlessly deflected.
It felt like landing a punch on a cushion.
“I no longer believe in fate!” Ha Shen shouted, gripping his silver spear tightly as his armor rang with divine light.
His silver spear pointed forward as he strode resolutely, determined to crush the Grand Inspector as if shattering the void itself!
With his overpowering divine strength, he sought to subdue the Grand Inspector with a sweeping blow!
Boom!
Daoist marks intertwined like chains of order, forming a miniature divine world around Ha Shen!
The spear’s tip seemed to press down upon that microcosm!
The Grand Inspector’s wide sleeves fluttered as his long hair danced behind him. With both hands forming seals, he summoned a massive stamp from the void as countless divine essences and the breath of heaven and earth surged forth!
Then—
It was as if a gigantic copper gong was struck, its sound shattering the silence!
Ha Shen’s silver spear was driven against the colossal divine seal formed in the concentrated space, as murderous intent rapidly mounted!
“Turtle Shell!”
“Let’s see—how long can you hold out?”
“This city has long been assimilated by Bizarre Temple. It is no longer the mortal realm! With the heavenly will shrouded in mysterious mists, how much of the power of heaven and earth can you possibly muster?”
Boom!
Ha Shen roared, his silver spear striking again. As the miniature divine world whirled, it seemed to mutate—its aura and pressure growing ever more terrifying as it crashed down relentlessly!
The Grand Inspector’s eyes remained calm, yet the space around him churned like a finely tuned mechanism, conspiring with clatters to stave off Ha Shen’s assault!
Then, an earth-shaking clash erupted without a hint of suspense, with overwhelming shockwaves rolling skyward!
Within Jingguang City, numerous cultivators trembled in awe. Even though the pervasive divine might left them weak, witnessing such a divine battle filled their hearts with satisfaction.
Li Che withdrew his gaze, his heart pounding as he observed the Grand Inspector’s unfathomable mastery over space—a skill even the gods seldom possessed.
Was that the power of heaven and earth?
Without overthinking, Li Che’s eyes swept over to the armored figure of Ha God.
A murderous intent surged from Ha God!
Ha God too withdrew his gaze; his golden spear trembled as it shattered the space, launching a brazen, disdainful strike at Li Che. “I won’t waste any more time with you, mortal Martial Immortal! You may be proud on earth, but in this city—assimilated by Bizarre Temple—we gods reign supreme!”
Boom!
A dazzling sweep from the golden divine spear unleashed a killing intent like no other!
Yet Li Che did not dodge. With five fingers gripping the Thunder Demon Three-Pronged Twin-Edged Blade, he retaliated with a strike imbued with terrifying golden energy and radiant Daoist marks!
Whoosh!
Ha God’s spear pierced out, ruthlessly striking Li Che’s flesh—but to his astonishment, not a drop of blood fell!
The flesh pierced by the divine spear seemed to spring to life, writhing and splitting apart to evade the attack!
The force of the spear was neutralized by the rippling, golden streams of blood that resembled threads of a nurturing mother’s hand, deftly countering his thrust!
Li Che’s wounded flesh, interlaced with countless golden blood threads, mended itself in an instant!
What kind of mortal body was this?
What unfathomable cultivation could produce such resilience?!
Ha God was stunned, feeling the overwhelming grip of Li Che’s power as his purple-gold hair whipped wildly and lightning danced in his eyes, locking with Ha God’s gaze.
He clutched the golden divine spear tightly, preventing Ha God’s escape!
Using his body as bait, he forced Ha God to pierce him, drawing the divine flesh closer!
Boom!
Li Che roared and ignited all seven Qimen Immortal Seeds simultaneously!
The terrifying force climbed rapidly. With a fierce stomp, Li Che shattered the void with a single kick. Then, as golden blood surged like a raging dragon, he yanked with all his might, attempting to wrench the golden divine spear from Ha God’s grasp.
But Ha God’s divine flame roared behind him, and his brilliant divine light could not be subdued!
Even when faced with Li Che’s unparalleled Martial Immortal strength at close quarters, Ha God remained unabated. Instead, a sneer curled on his lips—a defiant laugh.
“Looking for death?”
Ha God maintained his grip on the golden divine spear as a torrent of divine energy surged into it, causing intricate divine marks to appear on its surface, unleashing an overwhelming divine aura!
In that moment, the revived golden divine spear unleashed a power it had never shown before!
But that was not Ha God’s main attack.
He suddenly pressed his lips shut as his cheeks puffed out, releasing a dazzling burst of golden light as if ancient Daoist marks were twisting like dragons in his mouth!
It was as if he was weaving a pattern of divine order!
Two serpentine streams accompanied his breath, winding from his cheeks along his nasal bridge.
They finally coalesced into a single resounding “Heng!”
Heng!
Heng!!!
Boom! Thunderous roars ensued!
Like a sudden clap of divine thunder erupting from the void, the serpentine Daoist marks blasted forth from Ha God’s nostrils,
as if summoning a storm that silenced all noise!
It was a unique secret technique—one that merged the Dao with sound, endowing his ‘Heng’ with the terrifying power to annihilate!
The void began to ripple, like cloth being shaken, parts swelling as they pushed everything aside.
And in that displaced space, everything shattered, crumbled, and collapsed!
The Great Dao Secret Technique!
Li Che’s heart skipped a beat. The Young Dragon Emperor once told him of this technique—a secret art mastered by every god who had attained the Divine Flame realm, weaving their own unique Great Dao Secret Technique, a manifestation of the Dao’s power!
Boom!
The sonic wave expanded too swiftly, crashing into Li Che’s ears. In that instant, his head felt like it exploded, plunging him into momentary deafness, unable to grasp the sounds of heaven and earth, as the terrifying impact of that “Heng” twisted his flesh!
Bang!
Li Che was flung violently, spinning like a top in midair, hurtling for what seemed like 500 zhang before his Thunder Demon Blade sliced through the void, leaving deep gashes in its wake.
Staggering, Li Che stood dazed, his body barely holding together.
The Primordial Immortal Pattern on his body, combined with his original immortal aura and golden blood, began to crack and shed away little by little.
“What?!”
Ha God’s eyes betrayed his shock.
Even after deploying his Great Dao Secret Technique—a single ‘Heng’ that could shatter any god’s mortal flesh—this mortal Martial Immortal had stubbornly withstood it!
“How can his flesh be so resilient?!”
Ha God’s gaze darkened, a grim, furious intensity settling in.
Li Che’s dark hair whipped wildly, his eyes crackling with lightning and murderous intent.
His Martial Immortal Golden Body, resplendent even compared to divine weapons, had absorbed Ha God’s dreadful Great Dao Secret Technique.
In truth, Ha God’s strike was immensely powerful—the divine marks and immortal aura forged into his armor were nearly impenetrable!
But as his armor crumbled, transforming into a tangle of immortal energy that wound around his arms like a coiled serpentine dragon,
Ha God muttered, “Well, well—truly a Martial Immortal of the Dao. Your spill of blood must be as precious as the finest divine medicine—a rare treasure indeed!”
Clad in golden armor and wielding the golden divine spear, Ha God strode forward with a wild flourish as Li Che’s aura surged—a cascade of immortal energy elevating his martial arts to a new level.
The Thunder Demon Blade cleaved through the air with resounding clangs, its blade light interwoven with the chains of divine order and marked by radiant Daoist symbols that heralded an unprecedented original fire calamity, scorching and distorting the void with unstoppable power!
Filled with murderous intent, Li Che planned to break the stalemate. At that moment, the Young Dragon Emperor crept forward unseen, preparing to strike.
Ha God’s attention was drawn to a figure in a black robe nearby—the Young Dragon Emperor. But the full activation of the Cosmic Chessboard obscured his true identity, leaving no hint of threat.
“Two of you are as good as one—without divine flame, you won’t become gods. You are nothing but mere ants!”
Ha God’s golden divine spear lunged forward, aimed directly at Li Che. From his nostrils, twin streams of golden light began rotating once more, accompanied by a rumbling thunderous “Heng”!
A resounding divine sound, with Daoist marks falling like bolts of lightning, surged forth in tidal waves!
It sought to obliterate everything—to annihilate!
Li Che roared, as the Thunder Magnetic Conduit whirled and dark golden lightning surged. His immortal aura swirled around his blade; the Thunder Demon Blade twirled and the Myriad Transformations of Dragon Elephant Furnace formed amid the clashing blade energy—a dazzling, brilliant Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame collided with the Great Dao Secret Technique’s divine sound!
Boom!
This was Li Che’s all-out effort—a power so immense that it managed to block Ha God’s resonant divine sound.
For Ha God, this only deepened his grim resolve. Behind him, divine flames flickered and divine wheels spun!
Suddenly, as a black-robed figure surged forward, Ha God’s murderous intent shifted entirely towards that figure.
“Who dares to kill me?”
“Looking for death!”
With his golden divine spear thrown aside, the black-robed figure advanced, his aim fixed on piercing through space and nailing his enemy in the void!
But in the next moment, an overwhelming danger struck Ha God’s heart!
Clashing Daoist marks poured down in torrents, as a blazing burst of divine flame leapt from behind the black robe—like a radiant sun rising over the sea!
“No good!”
Ha God gasped in alarm!
At the moment he saw the divine flame of a god, he instantly knew that danger had arrived!
This black-robed one was not ordinary—he was a god!
Li Che even concealed a divine ally by his side!
Only now did he resort to using his divine powers!
His Daoist divine sound had just been unleashed, leaving him with no strength to face this sudden intervention!
It was precisely at his most vulnerable moment!
Moreover, behind the Young Dragon Emperor, streams of Daoist marks interwove densely like falling blossoms!
Then, metallic vibrations erupted as a hand emerged from beneath the black robe—a hand that transformed into a golden dragon claw, its overlapping scales exuding torrents of burning divine energy!
A flurry of divine techniques rained down in all directions, as brilliant divine light surged like a tidal flood!
From within that black robe, powerful strikes bludgeoned relentlessly towards Ha God!
The crushing divine pressure froze the air, as if it were entirely sealed, and the overwhelming weight of divine tyranny battered Ha God!
Ha God’s hair whipped wildly, his divine visage now twisted with fury, as divine flames behind him quivered unsteadily!
“Who’s there?!”
Boom, boom, boom!
The terrifying pressure drove Ha God to madness. Cold dread surged in him, as countless Daoist marks interwove over his crumbling armor. He clutched his golden divine spear and lashed out at the golden dragon claw!
Bang!
The golden divine spear was flung wildly!
The Young Dragon Emperor was enveloped by hundreds of streaming Daoist marks. Though his power, manifested as Spiritual Confinement, had not fully returned to its peak, it was far from trivial—and his combat prowess even surpassed Ha God’s!
Despite his greater strength, he resorted to a surprise attack!
Ha God’s heart sank into despair.
Thwack!
The dragon claw pounded fiercely on Ha God’s golden armor, causing him to spew blood and be flung helplessly in midair, his golden armor shattering piece by piece!
“You are…”
“Young Dragon Emperor!”
Ha God recognized that familiar divine might!
A pressure far more terrifying than even his own divine aura—a dreadful oppression whispered of the primordial immortal bloodline of the First Immortal!
The Young Dragon Emperor—
Wasn’t he supposed to have perished under the Heavenly Dao Sword?
Reduced to ashes?
A fake?
A fake! Everything was a charade!
“Ahhh! Despicable!”
Ha God coughed up bead-like blood, his eyes burning red as divine marks interwove across his body!
Beneath his black robe, the Young Dragon Emperor’s cold features were hidden beneath his hood, yet his murderous intent was unmistakable!
“Kill!”
Li Che’s Thunder Demon Three-Pronged Twin-Edged Blade shuddered as it slashed through the tearing divine sound.
With a tip-toe step, the void fragmented beneath him; his fingers clenched tightly and a Feilei Chess Piece was launched. At last, the Cosmic Chessboard gathered its forces and its move was made.
In an instant, Li Che teleported to Ha God’s side!
His hand clenched into a fist, enveloped by a solitary immortal aura, as he delivered a crushing punch using the supreme Martial Immortal technique he had mastered—and simultaneously, his dual blades whipped out in a savage arc.
Techniques passed down from the ancestral Dragon Kill Arts he had learned from the Young Dragon Emperor unfolded in dazzling, clashing rays of blade energy,
forming a colossal dragon that slammed into Ha God!
The Young Dragon Emperor strode forward wielding the Golden Great Dragon Spear. With one sweeping strike, he too unleashed his ancestral Dragon Kill Arts!
The golden great dragon and Li Che’s silver great dragon intertwined in a dazzling, ferocious collision!
They slammed into Ha God’s body with monstrous force!
Boom!
A boundless murderous aura exploded like an endless sea—blade energy raged, spear light soared, and mountains of power ascended, forming two colossal dragons that carried an overwhelming, ancient killing intent!
Ha God’s body was shattered in an instant, blown to pieces into countless blood-soaked fragments!
Everything happened too fast!
A divine flame god was obliterated in a mere flash of lightning!
Divine flames flickered as if to vanish from the mortal realm. Blood cascaded and drenched all of Jingguang City, a relentless rain of gore!
From within a golden, ancient temple, divine power swirled like a storm. Amidst the shattered blood and flesh of Ha God, a temple was forged!
A Bizarre Temple!
A god had fallen—and in his place, a Bizarre Temple was born!
Ha God felt that he might perish today. Thus he forged this Bizarre Temple in a desperate bid for rebirth in the next divine tide!
The ancient temple trembled as a terrifying power surged—a delicate current of the Dao flowed, though Li Che, having once sailed the martial Dao, recognized it as merely a trickle.
It was nothing more than a tiny stream of the Dao.
Li Che’s eyes gleamed as within his chest the Pure Heart Dao Fruit vibrated violently, and his Seven Aperture Luminous Heart pounded.
Gazing at Ha God’s disintegrating divine flesh forming the Bizarre Temple, a spark lit in his eyes!
It was time for the Temple Spirit to act.
He had a special technique!
Unsullied Heart—Summon the Divine!
Li Che suddenly unfurled the Cosmic Chessboard. Its labyrinthine lines sliced the heavens and earth into neat, little squares.
Above it, celestial stars shimmered as though a giant hand reached down from the board.
It was as if the hand of heaven and earth itself had descended!
Then the entire Bizarre Temple was shrouded in its light!
Clack, clack, clack—
Within the Bizarre Temple, a Divine Eagle Sculpture was revealed—it was Ha God’s own Divine Eagle, now glaring with fury and despair!
Its roar trembled with hints of terror and hopelessness!
“Something’s not right…”
“This isn’t right!”
Boom!
The entire Bizarre Temple, like sprouting bamboo shoots in spring, was wrenched from the void. Converging streams of the Dao coalesced into a colossal star enveloping the temple, suspended above the Cosmic Chessboard.
It was so immense it threatened to collapse the entire board—its intricate lines sinking and warping to form a vast hollow!
The Young Dragon Emperor’s eyes sparkled as fear gripped him. Our master truly is our master—such terrifying, divine prowess!
Blood rained down between heaven and earth, as dying divine thoughts, full of anger and despair, surged within. All cultivators stood spellbound, shocked and numb.
Many hadn’t even realized what had transpired before everything turned on its head in mere moments!
At the very moment the black-robed one intervened, he executed the Heavenly Dao God Ha God with lethal precision!
And far off,
Ha Shen, whose attack on the Grand Inspector had been halted, shivered as coldness spread through him. His silver armor froze, his murderous intent against the Grand Inspector momentarily halted.
His face turned grim as he realized: Ha God—the god—was dead!
Like him, other gods in the same realm saw their divine flames ignite, illuminating the void. Ascending to the ranks of the Dark Heavenly Court, Ha God’s fall filled them with icy dread, their teeth clenched in disbelief at the unthinkable killing intent that now retreated!
“Young Dragon Emperor!”
He glared at the black-robed one—Ha God had been undone by the Young Dragon Emperor’s trap!
Who would have thought that out of nowhere, a Young Dragon Emperor would emerge! Mind you, the Young Dragon Emperor’s divine flame, once rekindled, is tremendously strong. Within him flows the blood of an ancestral dragon—the immortal bloodline of the First Immortal!
He is truly the pride of the heavens—a descendant of the top-tier martial elite!
In such a fate, few can stand against him!
While other gods merely needed a single Heavenly Dao Sword to be slain, the Young Dragon Emperor required three heavenly blades!
Blood flew like falling blossoms.
Li Che’s purple-gold hair streamed; a wisp of immortal aura coiled around his robust Martial Immortal form, while his intertwining purple Primordial Immortal Pattern shone with otherworldly brilliance.
“Kill!”
“Today—let any invading god perish!”
Li Che said coldly.
With a flick, he gathered all the shredded remnants of Ha God’s divine flesh into a blood-red Dao platform, etched with lingering Daoist marks interlaced with blood-like lightning.
At that moment, Li Che appeared as a terrifying demonic immortal!
Boom!
The Grand Inspector, seated atop the Xuan Turtle, looked serene, his face shrouded in immortal aura. The celestial breath mingled around him as his white robe fluttered, his inky hair whipped about, and his eyes sparkled with mysterious radiance, with light rain drifting dimly around him.
The Xuan Turtle widened its eyes like bronze bells.
What?! He killed a god?! How could Li Che, of all people, slay a god—the one who ignited divine flame?!
How unbelievably formidable is he!
The Xuan Turtle trembled with disbelief. When it first encountered this guy, he was cautious even when dealing with turtles—and now he could slay gods!
What a ferocious fellow!
“Grand Inspector… old Turtle thinks you might have bet correctly again.”
The Xuan Turtle grumbled with its vast mouth.
Such a monster, wagering the entire mortal realm in one bout—it might just be worth the risk!
The Grand Inspector smiled subtly, as the Xuan Turtle could sense.
Elsewhere…
A terrifying Buddhist radiance shattered. Cracks spread across the seven-tiered golden pagoda as it was ferociously struck by a treasure circle, intricately engraved with Daoist marks, surrounded by swirling darkness and black flames—it nearly exploded!
The Tuo Ta Arhat wiped sweat from his brow, and the ancient Buddha image behind him seemed on the verge of collapse.
Although the true Qiankun Ring, Fire-Tipped Spear, and Hun Tian Ling adorned the Daughter of Yulian XiXi,
the Third Prince’s Temple Spirit—formed from the condensation of Yulian Fire into a divine weapon—could only compare slightly, albeit similarly wrapped in great Daoist marks with terrifying potency!
His murderous intent overflowed, an unstoppable flood of chaos threatening to obliterate everything!
Fortunately, the Four Seas Dragon King, in alliance with the transformative Golden Toad of the Xie Yao Cave, managed to restrain the Third Prince!
The Third Prince, shrouded in black flames with arms outstretched towards the heavens, roared low, his voice booming like crashing waves!
A massive ethereal Golden Toad, looming like a mountain, pinned down the Third Prince.
Meanwhile, the Four Seas Dragon King exhaled a dragon orb, invoking Daoist marks to form four vast torrents that subdued the Third Prince!
“Break it open for me!”
Suddenly…
Blood began to drench the heavens and earth.
The Third Prince, straining in mid-blow, paused—feeling an unwilling divine thought within the blood rain. Then he burst into cold laughter.
Turning his head to gaze into the distance, he caught sight of the demonic Li Che, wielding the Thunder Demon Three-Pronged Twin-Edged Blade, his body draped in immortal aura, as he raised a mass of twisted, interlaced divine flesh and lingering Daoist marks.
“Hehehe——
“No wonder he is the father of the Daughter of Yulian in this divine tide. Truly, a man who has survived even the curse of the Doomed Star!”
The Third Prince grinned broadly, his eyes gleaming with ferocity.
For he saw Li Che striding toward the black fire lotus region—each step sending ripples through the void!
Boom!
Li Che suddenly halted!
Lunging forward, he hurled the mass of interwoven Ha God’s divine flesh like an ironed football!
The surrounding air twisted into a vortex, as chaotic currents raged around the divine flesh ball speeding toward the Third Prince!
The target was unmistakable!
When Qi Tian revived, it was to slay the Supreme and consume flesh to restore the Third Prince’s energy—
Swallow divine flesh to hasten his recovery!
Boom!
The great Buddha shone in dazzling golden brilliance as the Tuo Ta Arhat supported the seven-tiered golden pagoda, its surface trembling, evoking the wails of lost souls!
They struggled desperately to impede the Third Prince’s restoration. If even one godly fragment were consumed by him, how could they ever win?!
“Damn it!”
“Stop him!”
The Tuo Ta Arhat roared, stepping forward. The great golden Buddha visage resounded as chains of divine order cascaded like divine thunder around him.
He slammed his arms down, determined to block and contain Ha God’s disassembled flesh!
Yet the space around the flesh ball twisted, as if lashed by purple-gold lightning in an unceasing whirlwind.
Suddenly, Li Che appeared—the very one who had hurled the flesh ball—and with a swift Feilei Shift, he grabbed it. Without hesitation, he charged headlong at the golden Buddha, colliding with it!
It was like an ancient god colliding forcefully with the backbone of the heavens!
Immortal aura whirled as the Myriad Transformations of Dragon Elephant Furnace soared; intertwined with myriad Daoist calamity powers!
Bang!
In an instant, the great Buddha was blasted to smithereens, its body pierced as if by a black hole. Li Che strode forward, moving like a god or demon!
Turning, he slapped down with a palm, and the Myriad Transformations of Dragon Elephant Furnace soared in a crushing arc—re-suppressing the great Buddha!
Then Li Che continued onward, carrying the flesh ball as if cradling an iron football!
The Tuo Ta Arhat’s hair stood on end!
How could this mortal Martial Immortal be so ferocious!
What was this unique power truly?
Meanwhile, the Four Seas Dragon King—the divine dragon with four heads—radiated brilliant divine light and raging divine flame as he hovered. Sensing something amiss,
the South Sea Dragon King broke free, his claw extended in a manic flurry, attempting to stop Li Che!
“Young Dragon Emperor!”
Li Che spoke coolly.
In the very next moment, the Young Dragon Emperor appeared beside Li Che, suddenly lifting his head as the black robe billowed open!
Two sharp dragon horns thrust into the sky, his azure hair flared wildly as if a golden divine dragon roamed his back. Divine flame ignited and countless chains of heavenly order banged in the air behind him!
“Impudent!”
The Young Dragon Emperor fixed a cold, commanding gaze on the claw of the South Sea Dragon King. The aura of ancestral dragons surged from his body!
With a booming command that cracked like thunder,
the South Sea Dragon King’s divine flame wavered, his eyes filling with panic.
“Young Dragon Emperor?!”
A look of disbelief flitted across his features—had the Young Dragon Emperor not died? How could he now help free the Third Prince?
Had all old grudges been forgotten? Had the long-sealed anger of the Third Prince melted away?
Why would the Young Dragon Emperor aid the Third Prince?
Boom!
With a crushing punch, the Young Dragon Emperor’s golden dragon claw smashed out, propelled by an overwhelming aura, flinging the South Sea Dragon King like a cannonball onto the ground of Jingguang City, carving a deep crater in the accursed ground as dark mists surged in all directions!
Without the South Sea Dragon King to block him, Li Che hurled Ha God’s dismembered flesh once more, turning it into a projectile
and launching it directly toward the Third Prince.
There was no stopping it.
Smack!
Amidst the divine oppression of the Four Seas Dragon, the Third Prince extended his hand covered in interlaced divine marks to grasp Ha God’s flesh, his fingers sinking in like straws as he ravenously absorbed the power contained within!
Slurp, slurp—
The Third Prince’s aura soared as countless Daoist marks amassed, swirling like a mad, thunderous tempest in the chaos!
From behind, arm after arm sprouted—
sensing the return of power.
The Third Prince bellowed to the skies.
Black flames surged, a black lotus spiraled and expanded.
In an instant, with fingers clutching the flesh ball and twin black Yulian Fenghuo Jingguang Wheels rotating beneath him, he propelled his body in a terrifying burst of speed right before the Tuo Ta Arhat’s eyes.
“Little brat—damn that blasted pagoda!”
The Third Prince roared with anger.
The Tuo Ta Arhat looked up at him with a complex expression.
The Third Prince said coldly, “What are you staring at? Gather round—I’m here!”
With a fierce downward palm strike!
In an instant, a black Fire-Tipped Spear, as if a divine spear piercing the chaotic heavens, slashed down!
Divine blood splattered, Buddhist light exploded!
It pierced right through the Tuo Ta Arhat’s crown, nailing him in the void!
