Cloud Platform Peak

Cloud Platform Peak.

Xuan Ning, Xuan Cheng, and the other three, along with Sunil, watched intently. The appearance of the Five-Colored Divine Light, sweeping away the shield and weapon from Neham's hands, surprised them even more.

"This is the Five-Colored Divine Light, which can cleanse everything within and outside the Five Elements of heaven and earth!"

Lu Qingfeng spoke up.

Regardless of whether his six disciples could understand, Lu Qingfeng, determined to show them the power of various Immortal Dao techniques, continued his attack even after sending Neham.

"Duh!"

The Purple-Gold Alms Bowl was tossed into the air.

It changes in mid-air, suddenly becoming enormous.

Two golden-blue beams of light, like dragons drawing water, flew out from the mouth of the vessel and hung high in the air. The two beams of light were extremely powerful; they separated and merged at will, intertwining and intersecting, and firmly sucked Neham, who had just stabilized his position in the air.

You can't hold me back!

Neham roared and struggled frantically, actually managing to break free.

Seeing this, Lu Qingfeng remained calm and took a Golden Ring off his wrist.

Upon seeing it, Horace exclaimed first, "It's the Demon-Subduing Golden Ring!"

When Horace first met Lu Qingfeng used this Golden Ring to subdue the Purple-Eyed Bone Dragon, which left a deep impression on Horace.

"Good."

"This treasure is called the 'Demon-Subduing Golden Ring,' which has the power to subdue demons and monsters. The heavenly alms bowl is called the 'Purple-Gold Alms Bowl,' which can hold back flying swords, Law Artifact, thunder and fire. No matter if a human, demon, monster, or ghost falls into it, they will be sucked in and unable to move."

"When the two treasures are used together, they have the power to suppress all evil spirits."

In the distance, the Demon-Subduing Golden Ring transformed into Golden Light and fell.

Just as Neham was about to break free of the Purple-Gold Alms Bowl, another Demon-Subduing Golden Ring appeared, binding him tightly. He felt that he could not unleash his full power. His power was boundless, but he was trapped by the two dragons and locked in by Golden Light.

Bang bang bang!

It struggled frantically, the Demon-Subduing Golden Ring making a series of thuds, its Golden Light sometimes coalescing and sometimes scattering, as if it were about to shatter.

"What a magnificent Eclipse Grand Duke!"

Lu Qingfeng secretly praised him.

As expected of the Abyssal Grand Duke, whose power is comparable to that of Golden Core, even the Demon-Subduing Golden Ring and the Purple-Gold Alms Bowl, when used together, were almost unable to subdue him.

However.

Even though it was only Fifth-Rank Dharma Artifact, it seemed extremely dangerous to deal with Neham, who had no Law Artifact to rely on. In reality, no matter how Neham struggled, he had no hope of escaping.

"It's all for nothing."

Before the thought could even form, Neham's eyes were filled with bloodlust, his mind seemingly consumed by carnage. A violent aura surged from the depths of his soul.

A sense of foreboding welled up in Lu Qingfeng's heart.

I dared not hesitate.

With a wave of his hand, an eight-story palace transformed in mid-air, rising a hundred feet high and landing in the sky. It captured Neham, along with the Purple-Gold Alms Bowl and the Demon-Subduing Golden Ring, and brought them all into the Eight-Scenery Tower.

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed from within the Eight-Scenery Tower. Lu Qingfeng's expression darkened slightly as he glanced at the Golden Radiance Realm on the First Layer of the Eight-Scenery Tower. There, he saw the Demon-Subduing Golden Ring shatter into three pieces, scattering in all directions. The Purple-Gold Alms Bowl, suspended in mid-air, had its two golden-green beams of light instantly broken free.

"Die! Die! Die!"

Neham went berserk, roaring wildly in the Golden Radiance Realm, unleashing his power and causing the hundred-foot-tall Eight-Scenery Tower to tremble continuously.

The myriad swords, arranged in a grand array, struck Neham, but only produced clanging sounds. This Eclipse Grand Duke's body was like cast iron; the Sword Qi energy could not cause him any harm, only a tickling sensation.

"His physical body is indeed formidable!"

Lu Qingfeng had a sudden thought.

He threw Neham into the Third Layer of the Four Seas Realm, without activating the Heaven-One Profound Ice Formation, and simply let Neham go berserk in the Four Seas Realm.

The ocean embraces all rivers.

The overwhelming power of Neham, capable of destroying mountains and severing rivers, can only be annihilated and rendered invisible throughout the Four Seas.

Lu Qingfeng opened his palm, and the Hundred-Foot Eight-Scenery Tower in the air transformed into a three-foot-high structure that landed in his palm.

His gaze shifted slightly, looking towards the dark depths of the rift valley.

In the darkness, a glimmer of light seemed to flash and disappear in an instant. Lu Qingfeng looked over, but it vanished without a trace.

"They don't run very fast."

Lu Qingfeng shook his head, supporting the Eight-Scenery Tower.

He took a step and arrived at Cloud Platform Peak, standing in front of Sunil and the others.

The meeting of the two "Grand Duke Guangyuan" caused Xuan Ning, Xuan Cheng and six other disciples to stare wide-eyed, while Sunil and the other two were also secretly amazed.

Lu Qingfeng thought to himself and withdrew his divine soul.

Cloud Platform Stone Lotus.

Lu Qingfeng sat cross-legged, eyes closed, concentrating on his cultivation. Before him, the three-foot-tall Eight-Scenery Tower rose and fell, its interior emitting constant rumbling sounds. Lu Qingfeng paid no heed, continuing his cultivation.

After the arrival, the surrounding changes prevented the full use of the 30 million experience points.

This time, the slaying of Augustine and the capture of Neham have finally intimidated the Abyss, allowing me a moment of respite. I can use this time to convert all thirty million experience points into cultivation points.

With the help of experience points, Lu Qingfeng's cultivation level rose steadily.

Time passed.

Early Void Core Stage.

Middle Void Core Stage.

Late Void Core Stage.

He had long since mastered the Cultivation Method and practiced it many times. This time, practicing it again was effortless and smooth, giving Lu Qingfeng a long-lost sense of comfort.

In my spare time from spiritual practice.

Visualize the Soul Slaughter Golden Blade and Visualization slaying demons.

The Third Layer of the Eight-Scenery Tower overlooks the Four Seas Realm.

"Guangyuan!"

"Let me out!"

Waves surged, Neham roared incessantly. His berserk state had long since subsided, and his voice sounded somewhat weak.

Suddenly.

From the Four Seas above, a Golden Light appeared and arrived in an instant.

They gave Neham no time to respond.

It crashed down!

"You think you can kill me with a mere Golden Blade?!"

Neham laughed wildly.

His physical body was incredibly strong; in his berserk state, even Augustine couldn't restrain him. Although he was captured by Lu Qingfeng using the Eight-Scenery Tower this time, he was confident he could escape sooner or later. All attacks were utterly ineffective against his iron-clad body.

However, the next moment—

"Ah!"

The Golden Blade fell, not severing flesh, but seemingly illusory, slicing directly across Neham's body. The Golden Blade Soul Slaughter Neham's soul, inflicting excruciating pain akin to being slowly sliced to death, causing him to roar in agony from the depths of his being.

"Soul attack!"

Neham's eyes widened in horror. He stretched out his large hand, and the fragments of armor fell into his palm. He was heartbroken and shocked. "Even the Heaven-Bestowed Divine Armor couldn't withstand it!"

This is a soul defense magic device.

Worn on the soul, it grants immunity to all Curse and soul attacks. However, the Golden Blade struck, shattering the 'Heaven-Bestowed Divine Armor' instantly.

Neham looked up.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief that no second Golden Blade came, the surrounding scenery changed abruptly, and he suddenly appeared in the boundless fire domain from the Four Seas full of water.

From the Third Layer to the Fourth Layer.

Planting lotus flowers in the True Fire Realm!

The raging fire scorched the terrified Neham, subjecting him to relentless torment.

"Ahhh!"

Even with his strong physique, Neham was burning with pain and screamed incessantly.

Lu Qingfeng unleashed a strike of the 'Golden Blade Soul-Slaughter Method', placing Neham into the True Fire Realm.

One aspect is spiritual practice.

He would occasionally visualize Golden Blade, which would then suddenly slash down.

Forged in true fire, the Golden Blade Soul Slaughter.

Neham was in dire straits.

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Normally.

Two years is nothing compared to the eternally vast Heaven's Punishment Abyss of divine retribution.

However, the situation has changed dramatically in the last two years.

The Grand Duke Guangyuan rose to prominence unexpectedly, first beheading the Thorn Grand Duke, Augustine, and then occupying the Thorn Grand Rift, establishing Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, and proclaiming his authority to all.

Countless people, countless abyssal races, and countless abyssal creatures are curious.

They all rushed towards Abyss-Suppressing Mountain.

Not just cultivators, not just powerful creatures.

Within a radius of ten thousand miles, ordinary people also heard the Xuanyin and rushed towards the Abyss-Suppressing Mountain in their hearts. Step by step, they walked on the abyss land.

Countless ordinary people die from exhaustion on the road.

Countless lives have been lost to various Devil Creature.

However, there were still some people who were unwilling to give up this once-in-a-lifetime fortuitous opportunity and set off for Abyss-Suppressing Mountain.

The cultivator moves quickly.

However, within this vast territory, speed varies. Even a fully-fledged Foundation Establishment mage or warrior would find it quite challenging to traverse this entire distance.

Only by reaching the level of Archmage can one have some confidence.

The fifth-tier Archmage Earth, Sky, Stars, Silver Moon, and Blazing Sun Realm possess power no weaker than that of Spirit Void Cultivator. While they may not be able to burn mountains or boil seas, they can still ignore attacks from ordinary abyssal Devil Creature.

But.

Even after traversing ten thousand miles, danger still lingers.

Only by reaching the Lord Rank can one be considered truly secure. A Lord Rank powerhouse might only emerge within a radius of thousands of miles. As long as one doesn't linger in battle, even the lowest-ranking baron is difficult to kill.

Especially when one is solely focused on escaping.

Or perhaps out of curiosity.

Or perhaps they intend to seek refuge with him.

One by one, Lord Rank lords gathered towards Abyss-Suppressing Mountain.

The vast land was thrown into turmoil. Centered around Baili Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, dozens or even hundreds of human cultivators and ordinary people of other races gathered there every day.

He had the sixth-order Dutian Dark Nether Strategies in hand.

By refining Augustine and his vast army of abysses, the Dutian Qi became so rich that the strength of the Ghost General Yin Soldier was elevated to its peak.

The seventy- Dutian Ghost Generals are all comparable to Golden Core True Person.

All three thousand six hundred Dark Nether Yin Soldiers were no weaker than those at the Spirit Void Peak.

Suppressing all sides.

These were the seventy-two dukes, or even the seventy-two grand dukes, whose overwhelming aura prevented even Lord Rank experts from daring to cross the line. Before the two-year period was up, Grand Duke Guangyuan had not granted permission for them to enter the hundred-mile territory of Abyss-Suppressing Mountain.

Three thousand six hundred Dark Nether Yin Soldiers, at the Spirit Void Peak realm, are comparable to the Blazing Sun Archmage of the Barbarian God Realm.

In Lu Qingfeng's eyes.

Lord Rank are nothing compared to Archmage, who are nothing but ants.

However, even within the First Layer the Heaven's Punishment Abyss, the Archmage is a powerful figure. They can establish independent mage towers. Their territory, spanning tens or even hundreds of miles, is among the most powerful.

The lord governs a thousand miles.

The Archmage should be known as the Venerable Baili.

Even if the Blazing Sun Archmage cannot compare to a lord, he is no less formidable than an ordinary abyss cultivator.

"With so many powerful figures under his command, just who is this Grand Duke Guangyuan?!"

"With these powerful figures following them, it's no wonder they were able to kill Augustine and seize the Thorn Grand Rift."

"The Grand Duke Guangyuan is much more lenient than Augustine. If I could become his subordinate and receive his guidance, I might even be able to advance to the Lord Rank!"

Outside Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, countless members of the Abyss Clan, some who had been waiting for a long time and others who had just arrived, were filled with shock, doubt, and anticipation upon seeing the more than three thousand powerful figures who had stood in the sky for two years.

"Seventy-two dukes!"

A White Jade Skeleton, its eye sockets flickering with ghostly flames, clearly belonged to the undead race. Its arrival immediately attracted many gazes from all directions. However, with the Grand Duke Guangyuan intimidating them Ghost General Yin Soldier suppressing them, no one dared to make a move.

For the past two years.

Anyone who made a move within a thousand miles of Abyss-Suppressing Mountain was punished by Ghost General Yin Soldier. In serious cases, they were even killed on the spot.

Within a thousand miles, the atmosphere instantly became peaceful.

The White Jade Skeleton looked up at the seventy-two Dutian Ghost Generals and three thousand six hundred Dark Nether Yin Soldiers in the sky, and felt a familiar yet unfamiliar aura.

"Undead?"

"It doesn't look like it."

The White Jade Skeleton flickered slightly, as if it were pondering something.

Suddenly.

The celestial Ghost General and Yin Soldier moved in unison. Thirty-six Dutian Ghost Generals led 1,800 Dark Nether Yin Soldiers down and arranged themselves in front of Abyss-Suppressing Mountain. Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, which had been shrouded in clouds and mist, now had thirty-six incredibly wide white cloud avenues opened up from all directions by the layers of clouds and mist.

Like a ladder to heaven, it unfolds.

It descends directly from the clouds and mist to the outer edge of Abyss-Suppressing Mountain.

The clouds and mist surged.

Ladders to heaven are laid out.

Its imposing momentum caused a stir outside Abyss-Suppressing Mountain.

Immediately afterwards.

From the depths of Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, a melodious and resonant voice, like the Xuanyin, came from a Daoist priest singing loudly—

"Wearing a blue gauze headscarf, with two ribbons fluttering behind her head."

Press the three points on the forehead to reveal the three lights, and the two circles at the back of the head to represent the sun and moon.

The Daoist robe is made of jade, symbolizing yin and yang, and the waist is adorned with two ribbons tied in Queen Mother's knot.

Wearing a pair of cloud-stepping shoes, I idly Star Dipper in the night.

No need to ride horses or sail boats, one can roam freely across the Four Seas.

The vast world is but a fleeting moment; the decay of rocks and the withering of pines are but a single autumn.

The tiger, climbing the mountain, lay prostrate amidst the dust; the dragon, descending into the sea, knelt in reverence.

With one heart, I absolve the great worries of the world; with two hands, I mend the flaws of heaven and earth.

The melodious sound entered my ears.

Deep in Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, after the clouds and mist cleared.

A Daoist priest, clad in a robe embodying the principles of Yin and Yang, sat cross-legged atop a cloud Cloud Platform atop the mountain, his figure appearing and disappearing in the mist. Waves of Daoist energy emanated from his mouth, which moved like a dragon's breath, and his Daoist voice resounded like the grandest of bells, echoing powerfully.

"When the two-year term is up, Abyss-Suppressing Mountain will open."

"Those who are destined to join me may do so!"

The formation that had enveloped the mountain was removed, and the world fell silent.
