Just as Li Yi thought he could return to Penglai Island this way, he suddenly felt three auras locking onto him.
Li Yi frowned, knowing he had finally been discovered. Those major powers truly couldn't be underestimated.
As he suspected, three figures appeared, each occupying a position to form a triangle, surrounding Li Yi. It was clear they were preventing his escape.
Li Yi saw that his attackers were all acquaintances: Venerable Blazing Fire, Venerable Green Mountain, and Venerable Great Mountain Sword.
"Sigh, I just stole one Innate Spiritual Treasure from you, and you have to deal with me like this," Li Yi sighed with a sense of helplessness. "First, you put out a bounty to hunt me, and now three Grand Unity Golden Immortals are personally taking action against a mere Golden Immortal like me. Is it really necessary?"
Venerable Blazing Fire and the others' faces twitched. This brat treated Innate Spiritual Treasures like cabbage, saying it so casually. What was most infuriating was that he didn't even mention the matter that caused them to lose face publicly.
"Hmph, brat, stop trying to argue. Nothing you say now will matter. This time next year will be your death anniversary," Venerable Blazing Fire said, his eyes flashing with cold light as he recalled being publicly humiliated.
"Hmph, to have three Grand Unity Golden Immortals personally make a move against you, you should be proud even in death," Venerable Green Mountain said, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Venerable Great Mountain Sword remained silent, but his gloomy expression, as dark as dripping water, revealed the intensity of his murderous intent. Ever since he became a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, he had been respected everywhere. He never expected to be so thoroughly humiliated by Li Yi. He now wished he could tear Li Yi apart immediately to quell his hatred.
Li Yi knew today's situation couldn't be resolved peacefully. These three would never let him go. "I'll risk it," he thought. The prospect of fighting Grand Unity Golden Immortals made a gleam flash in Li Yi's eyes, his heart filled with fighting spirit.
"Nine-Colored Pagoda!" Li Yi pointed to the sky, and the hundreds-of-feet-tall pagoda reappeared in the world.
Venerable Blazing Fire and the others gazed at the colorful pagoda, which continuously emanated soul pressure. They couldn't help but marvel at the power of Li Yi's Spiritual Power, wondering how he possessed such potent soul abilities.
Even they, if caught off guard, could fall victim to this Spiritual Power. But now, at most, it would only cause a little trouble.
Li Yi knew that Grand Unity Golden Immortals were generally arrogant. They wouldn't team up to deal with a mere Golden Immortal. If it weren't to prevent his escape, they probably wouldn't have appeared together.
Both Venerable Green Mountain and Venerable Great Mountain Sword had strong single-target attack power. The Slaughter Sword Dao he had comprehended was unleashed through the Lotus Incarnation, forming his unique Black Lotus world. If he faced either of them, the Black Lotus world likely wouldn't last long before being broken.
After comparing them, he found that Venerable Blazing Fire excelled in Dao arts and was relatively easier to deal with.
"Go!" Li Yi pointed at Venerable Blazing Fire. The Nine-Colored Pagoda erupted with brilliant light, spun rapidly a few times, and flew towards Venerable Blazing Fire.
Venerable Blazing Fire's face turned pale. He never expected Li Yi to attack him. He had assumed Li Yi would choose Venerable Green Mountain or Venerable Great Mountain Sword and let him watch from the sidelines. After all, he was slightly stronger than the other two. Now, Li Yi was clearly implying he was the weakest of the three.
"Ah, Sword Maniac, I'll make sure you die without a whole corpse, your soul and body utterly destroyed!" Venerable Blazing Fire's rage surged.
Gazing at the attacking Nine-Colored Pagoda, he tightly guarded his mind. With a wave of his right hand, a thousand-foot-long fire dragon coiled out of thin air.
"As expected, with my current realm, using the 'Nine-Colored Pagoda' can't do anything to a Grand Unity Golden Immortal," Li Yi observed as Venerable Blazing Fire merely swayed slightly before recovering, his eyes remaining clear.
"Bang!" Li Yi manifested two pairs of black wings. "Whoosh!" His figure flickered, appearing near Venerable Blazing Fire. A cold light flashed in his eyes. "Slaughter Sword Dao: Lotus Incarnation!" The Power of Slaughter within Li Yi surged madly.
The surrounding Power of Slaughter converged, and a black lotus tens of thousands of feet wide appeared in the sky, rapidly engulfing Venerable Blazing Fire.
Venerable Great Mountain Sword looked at the colossal black lotus and couldn't help but admire the boy's profound attainment in the sword dao. It was a pity that this arrogant young man, who caused trouble everywhere, was about to perish here today. Otherwise, his future would have been limitless.
Venerable Green Mountain, however, had no such thoughts. Anyone who provoked him deserved to die. As a dignified elder of the Eastern Alliance, he had lost immense face because of a mere Golden Immortal like Li Yi, his authority completely undermined. The more of a genius Li Yi was, the more he had to be killed. Not flaying him alive was already showing mercy.
"Bang, bang, bang..." Violent impact sounds continuously echoed from within the Black Lotus world. The entire Black Lotus world swayed precariously.
"Crash!" The Black Lotus world shattered completely, revealing two figures.
Venerable Blazing Fire's hair was disheveled, his Daoist robe tattered, and he had several minor sword wounds on his body. He looked quite pathetic.
"Good, good," Venerable Blazing Fire's killing intent was more intense than ever, his enraged eyes fixed on Li Yi.
"Sigh, as expected, a Golden Immortal cannot compare to a Grand Unity Golden Immortal," Li Yi thought, recalling how this move had trapped thousands of Golden Immortals last time, yet now it had barely injured Venerable Blazing Fire. He sighed.
"I'll have to call my main body for help," Li Yi said, gazing at the murderous Venerable Blazing Fire, and gradually closed his eyes.
Buzhou Mountain, a mysterious cave mansion. The main body, which had been closing its eyes for over a thousand years, suddenly opened them. Golden rule threads flickered within its silver irises. A world-shattering storm of will erupted from the cave entrance. All living beings around Buzhou Mountain trembled under the pressure of this will, daring not to move.
The storm of will swept towards Li Yi's direction at near light speed. Wherever it passed, the clouds in the sky automatically parted, forming a cloud sea rift tens of millions of meters long. All cultivators, including Grand Unity Golden Immortals, were suppressed and dared not move...
Ancient Gold Sacred Dynasty, in the main hall, Ancestor Tun Tian's body trembled slightly. "It's him, it's definitely him, he has appeared."
On Kunlun Mountain, Hongjun, one of the three surviving Chaos Demon Gods after the creation of heaven and earth, also looked in the direction of Buzhou Mountain. "It's him," a trace of solemnity flashed across his face.
On an ordinary desolate mountain in the Hong Huang, an old man with a willow branch stuck in his hair suddenly had a sharp glint in his hazy eyes. "It's him."
At this moment, many powerful beings in the Hong Huang sensed a terrifying will appearing. In the face of this will, even Grand Unity Golden Immortals felt like ants.
The Hong Huang was in an uproar. No one had expected such a supreme being to exist within the Hong Huang.
Not long after Li Yi closed his eyes, the terrifying will of his main body appeared directly above his head. All the clouds swirled, forming a giant funnel. A pillar of light extended from the bottom of the funnel to Li Yi's head.
When the main body's will arrived, Venerable Blazing Fire and the others were instantly pinned down, unable to move, filled with dread. They watched helplessly as this terrifying will poured into Li Yi's body.
The pillar of light gradually disappeared. Li Yi's tightly closed eyes opened again. His eyes, snow-white, deeply cold, and ruthless, made Venerable Blazing Fire's scalp tingle. At this moment, this body was already controlled by his main body.
The main body pointed at Venerable Blazing Fire and the others. Without any warning, a large amount of profound ice energy surged from the void, freezing everything within thousands of miles. An immense, hexagonal ice sphere appeared on the land of the Hong Huang.
This was also Li Yi's request not to kill them, only to freeze them for a hundred thousand years, intending to defeat them personally once his strength was sufficient.
After everything was done, the main body left. Knowing that such a huge commotion would attract a lot of attention, Li Yi transformed into a stream of light and quickly flew towards Penglai Island to avoid trouble.
