Demons Have Descended, Catastrophe Approaches

Sensing Hua Yunxiao's thoughts, Su Li knew he could no longer delay or escape.

Otherwise, in the next moment, he would be taken to the forbidden ancestral land of the Hua Clan under the guise of 'protection.'

Once he reached the Hua Clan, he would never have another chance to rise.

For an existence in Hua Lingshang's state, the only thing to consider was how to kill him, seize his body, and then fully revive the Infant Soul.

Therefore, Su Li staged a play, making his non-existent 'master' appear.

After speaking, Su Li immediately raised his left hand to his brow, bringing the Five Emperors Ancient Coin on his wrist to rest against his forehead.

Then, he sat down cross-legged, facing east, his expression calm.

Previously, he had many reservations about divination—ever since being locked onto by Yaolan's blood-red eyes, he wouldn't easily divine particularly powerful individuals!

For example, the 'Gongcheng Tiansheng' he locked onto from Yun Qingxuan, who laughed until the end.

For example, 'Hua Lingshang,' who was also locked onto from Yun Qingxuan and was communicating with Hua Yunxiao.

And then there was Zhuge Wuwei!

But this time, what did he still need to fear?

Something unusual was happening to him. No matter where this anomaly came from, it was definitely not simple, was it?

After sitting down cross-legged, before closing his eyes, Su Li had already locked onto 'Yun Qingxuan' and opened her Life Archive.

Then, from her past experiences, he retrieved Gongcheng Tiansheng's Life Archive.

This indirect locking provided less information, and querying his future Life Archive would consume a significantly larger amount of Heavenly Secrets Value.

However, Su Li had no other choice at this moment.

If one Gongcheng Tiansheng wasn't enough, he would calculate 'Zhuge Wuwei' as well and lock onto the 'strongest person' he had encountered to investigate.

Among these people, their past records would always contain a 'super formidable' existence.

And Su Li could retrieve this existence through the 'Life Archive' search.

Then, through indirect locking, he could view some information.

Most of these extremely powerful beings had one characteristic—when their Life Archive was being viewed, they would have a certain sense, or even 'hunt down the soul'!

This had already been confirmed once by Yaolan behind Fang Yueheng.

Now, whether this was the case or not depended on his fortune this time.

"Master, this disciple dares not forget."

Su Li suddenly spoke.

Zhuge Wuwei and Hua Yunxiao exchanged glances, then looked around again, finding nothing.

However, they did not act immediately.

Zhuge Qingchen, Hua Ziyan, and Fang Yueheng were filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Deep within Mu Yuxi's pupils, a hint of worry was hidden.

Yun Qingxuan gazed silently, her expression still indifferent.

"Master, where the Dao exists, destiny shall follow."

After a moment, Su Li revealed a thoughtful expression and replied.

"So that's how it is. The Dao that can be spoken of is not the eternal Dao. The name that can be named is not the eternal name. The unnamable is the beginning of heaven and earth; the namable is the mother of all things. Therefore, always without desire, one observes its mystery; always with desire, one observes its manifestations. These two emerge from the same source but differ in name; they are both called the profound. Profound and more profound, the gate to all wonders."

Su Li showed a look of sudden realization and continued, "The Dao Gate opens, and the Demonic Soul returns? Master, the gate of the profound yin is still in turmoil, why..."

"This disciple will never forget Master's guidance. Not to be disturbed in heart, not to be trapped by emotions, not to fear the future, not to dwell on the past. To live, be as brilliant as summer flowers; to die, be as beautiful as autumn leaves. This is this disciple's Destiny Tribulation. This disciple's inner demons are all gone, and I face it with equanimity."

As Su Li spoke, he immediately locked onto Gongcheng Tiansheng.

"Qian Lan, lock onto 'Gongcheng Tiansheng' and view his Life Archive."

[This viewing requires the consumption of 20,000 Heavenly Secrets Value. Confirm?]

"Confirm."

Su Li chose Gongcheng Tiansheng first!

Because he was, by far, the person who could see this scheme through to the end!

Yaolan, wielding the Saint Artifact Short Sword, successfully revived her Demonic Soul, but was then suppressed on the spot by Yun Qingxuan using the heaven-defying Saint Artifacts, the Soul Perishing Tea Can and the Soul Locking Tower!

However, after Yun Qingxuan transformed and grew even stronger, she couldn't kill Gongcheng Tiansheng even with a sneak attack, which showed how formidable Gongcheng Tiansheng was!

Even though Yun Qingxuan was only at the late stage of the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm, close to the Nascent Soul Realm, this cultivation level seemed low.

But in reality, pushed to the brink and having suppressed Yaolan, Yun Qingxuan's cultivation and strength had increased exponentially, making her incredibly terrifying!

Not to mention, the Soul Locking Tower and Soul Perishing Tea Can in her hands were top-tier Saint Artifacts, and she could unleash most of their power through secret techniques!

The power of a sneak attack could be imagined!

Yet, although Gongcheng Tiansheng was injured from being hit, it was only a minor injury. In turn, he severely wounded Yun Qingxuan with one strike, then suppressed her with two moves, and seized the Nine Desolations Tower and the Soul Perishing Tea Can.

At this moment, the instant Su Li 'confirmed'.

Before his eyes, the system's light screen, which had originally displayed a stream of jumping text information, was twisting at extreme speed.

In an instant, it transformed into a raging sea, into roaring, tumbling waves of blood, surging violently towards him.

At that moment, Su Li felt as if he would be completely submerged and devoured by the colossal waves of blood.

But, as the wave of blood crushed down upon him, an intensely hot aura suddenly emerged from the center of his brow.

Then, his entire body trembled. From the depths of his bloodline, from the depths of his soul, it was as if ancient souls were letting out low roars and bellows.

It was as if his bloodline and soul had formed some kind of temporal and spatial resonance with the phantom images of the five emperors residing within the Five Emperors Ancient Coin.

That bone-chillingly hot aura pierced sharply into the depths of his brow.

Su Li's body trembled. The 'metaphysical' knowledge from the system instantly flooded his entire being, as if he were being doused by a spring of knowledge. Every part of his body became incredibly clear and transparent.

Su Li felt that at this very moment, something must have changed within him.

However, he didn't know exactly what had changed.

And what were the consequences of forcibly accessing the 'Life Archive' of an ultimate expert?

He no longer considered it.

At this moment, his entire body's blood felt as if it had been completely ignited by that scorching energy, causing his three souls and seven spirits to form an invisible synergy.

Then, the Five Emperors Ancient Coin seemed to transform into five phantom totems bearing the will of emperors, gradually merging together and entering his soul.

The next moment, Su Li's eyes stung sharply. Then, in his vision, the blood waves that had been churning like a raging sea were crushed and swept away by an overwhelming will.

Following this, an endless stream of information poured in.

This information was the detailed archive of 'Gongcheng Tiansheng'.

[Gongcheng Tiansheng: Male, 3731 years old.
Realm: Infant Transformation Realm Ninth Layer (Infant Soul Splitting) (Dao Injury Unhealed) (Dual Infant Souls).
Talent: Five Elements Divine Thunder (Saint Grade 3 Stars), Mysterious Qi Movement (Spirit Grade 6 Stars) (Continuously Rising).
Nascent Soul: Saint Infant (Seven Stars).
Physique: Five Thunder Saint Body (Saint Grade 5 Stars).
Destiny: Heavenly Fiend Nether Transformation, Demonic Soul Revival.
Current Mindset: Hmph, that brat from Old Man Zhuge's family dares to spy on me? Perfect, my Infant Soul is in urgent need of transformation, so I'll refine and kill you directly. That will surely make that old bastard Zhuge Chunqiu's heart ache for a while!]
...

While Su Li was secretly using the system, Zhuge Wuwei and Hua Yunxiao were also observing very carefully.

However, the two of them detected no energy fluctuations whatsoever—all they could hear was Su Li muttering to himself.

Su Li's words were indeed incredibly shocking.

But, these could still be faked—as long as one accidentally obtained an ancient inheritance, everything could be explained.

However, soon, Zhuge Wuwei and Hua Yunxiao no longer thought that way.

Because Su Li, who had been motionless moments ago, suddenly had a golden-red light illuminate the center of his brow.

This light was not Dao rhyme or Dao marks, yet it was more complex, more ancient, more heaven-defying, and more soul-stirring than Dao rhyme or Dao marks!

As this light rapidly enveloped Su Li, an exceptionally powerful, profound, ancient, and invincible supreme phantom suddenly appeared behind him.

Even though it was merely a phantom, it seemed to be clad in myriad rays of divine light and carried a majestic aura that suppressed all ages!

This aura was not merely emanating outwards; it was as if it were engraved into his bones, into the depths of his soul.

It was as if this innate noble destiny had far surpassed the level of all beings in this era!

It was like the supreme emperors of the world, looking down upon all under heaven, controlling the firmament!

This aura had indeed stunned Zhuge Wuwei and Hua Yunxiao.

Even more terrifying was that this phantom seemed to be changing!

Furthermore, with each new transformation, it was as if a new emperor had descended, making it utterly breathtaking!

Zhuge Wuwei was almost suppressed to his knees by this terrifying might that could quell everything in heaven and earth!

Even though his heart was filled with disbelief, he had, for the moment, set aside his intention to suppress Su Li.

Just as Zhuge Wuwei was about to carefully observe Su Li's situation, to see if this was his master's intervention or caused by those five golden circular copper pieces, the sky was suddenly shrouded in a sea of blood.

As the sea of blood surged, giant waves tumbled like a raging sea, sweeping directly towards the entire Wanli Holy Land.

Within the giant waves, two blood-red eyes, hundreds of meters in size, appeared extraordinarily fierce and terrifying.

However, these blood-red eyes had now pierced through the void, directly locking onto Su Li.

Coincidentally, Zhuge Wuwei was directly behind Su Li.

Sensing this fierce blood fiend and murderous aura, Zhuge Wuwei immediately unleashed his boundless Nascent Soul power and all his Heavenly Secrets techniques.

But if he didn't move, it was fine. Once he did, he further enraged Gongcheng Tiansheng.

The area Gongcheng Tiansheng had originally locked onto was the area where Su Li was located.

At this moment, that locked gaze fell directly upon Zhuge Wuwei.

Then, the sea of blood roared like madness, churning up colossal waves that blotted out the sky, carrying world-destroying killing intent as it pressed down!

"Boom--"

The scene was as if the heavens and earth were cracking apart.

Before Zhuge Wuwei could even make a move, he was stunned by this aura, unable to unleash even a shred of his power!

His face turned ashen with terror.

Meanwhile, Hua Yunxiao's Heavenly Secrets Sacred Jade emitted an incredibly brilliant white light, but it only managed to briefly resist the crushing pressure of the blood sea.

Seeing that this sea of blood was about to engulf everything.

Yun Qingxuan also silently retreated a distance at this moment, preparing to evacuate at any time.

Mu Yuxi endured the terrifying pressure, trying her best to get closer to Su Li, wanting to help him share the burden.

Hua Ziyan was shaken by this aura, as if it had triggered her unstable Nascent Soul, causing some sort of backlash, and she coughed up large mouthfuls of blood.

Despite this, she still rushed to Su Li's side, wanting to protect him.

Yun Wanchu trembled, his face deathly pale--was Wanli Holy Land about to be annihilated just like this?

It came too quickly!

Right, Master Su!

Master Su's master!

"Master Su, Master Su, please, I beg you, please make your master make a move, quickly..."

Yun Wanchu snapped back to his senses, immediately filled with shock and terror, and pleaded repeatedly.

This suddenly descending, terrifying killing intent... this was far beyond anything he could contend with.

"Cough, cough, cough--"

Zhuge Wuwei was the first to bear the brunt. After being targeted, he couldn't move at all, and blood began to spurt from his seven orifices.

But, just at this moment, the phantom behind Su Li solidified, transforming into a blurry phantom similar to himself.

The blurry phantom stood quietly in the void, and a divine radiance suddenly condensed in its eyes.

"Pfft--"

The divine radiance shot out, and in the sky, the blood sea, like an enraged, surging tide, immediately shattered, exploded, and turned into blood mist and dust.

The next moment, the sky was clear and vast, with not a cloud in sight.

Everything that had been incredibly tragic seemed like an illusion, suddenly vanishing.

At this time, Yun Wanchu was the first to regain his senses. He immediately knelt and kowtowed, saying with immense gratitude, "Thank you, senior, thank you for making a move to save us, thank you, Master Su..."

Yun Wanchu's voice jolted everyone else, who were still in shock, terror, and disbelief, back to reality.

Zhuge Wuwei also recovered his senses at this time.

His expression was solemn, and he glanced thoughtfully at the five round copper pieces on Su Li's left wrist, which had returned to their normal color. A thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

As all the information about Gongcheng Tiansheng flooded into Su Li's mind, Su Li himself also woke up completely.

At this very moment, he realized that the people around him seemed to have changed somewhat.

He immediately focused on Mu Yuxi and opened her Life Archive, observing the situation from earlier.

In an instant, he understood.

The next moment, he opened the Life Archives of Zhuge Qingchen, Fang Yueheng, and even Yun Wanchu, reviewing their recent experiences.

Afterward, he finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

However, he also realized a very important issue--the anomaly of the Five Emperors Ancient Coin had fallen into Zhuge Wuwei's eyes!

When Su Li made this decision, he had already realized that he would inevitably have to deal with this potential crisis.

Therefore, he had actually been prepared for it.

He silently stood up, no longer glancing at Yun Qingxuan, who had been preparing to flee just now.

This woman was too rational, too realistic.

"Senior Zhuge, my master has left. Before, he merely gave a casual warning to that attacker.

For a short time, that person should be stunned by my master and dare not act rashly.

However, my master has given me some reminders, and I have already grasped a core piece of information!

Therefore, there is a very serious problem that needs to be resolved immediately.

Otherwise, facing the doomsday catastrophe this time, we will surely be defeated!"

Su Li's tone was extremely serious!

He was preparing to take the initiative!

You want to mess with me? I'll mess with you first!

"What information?"

Zhuge Wuwei pondered slightly, his expression solemn.

As he responded, his gaze unintentionally swept over the Five Emperors Ancient Coin worn on Su Li's left wrist.

"Senior Hua."

Su Li glanced at Hua Yunxiao, then at Hua Ziyan and the others beside him.

Hua Yunxiao pondered briefly, raised his hand, and waved out a vacuum-sealed area, shielding the hearing and vision of the others.

It only enveloped Su Li, Zhuge Wuwei, and himself.

"Now, Master Su can speak."

Hua Yunxiao's mood at this moment was very complicated.

"Senior Hua, do you still remember what I told you earlier about 'ancestors causing trouble' and 'washing ancestral bones'?"

Su Li suddenly and abruptly spoke.

Upon hearing this, Hua Yunxiao's heart trembled.

Zhuge Wuwei's face also changed drastically, a look of horror flashing in his eyes.

It wasn't that he couldn't maintain his composure; rather, the series of shocks he had experienced before, coupled with Su Li's current words, had delivered too great a blow!

Su Li seemed to not notice their changing expressions. He sighed and said, "It's too late. The Hua Clan's ancestral land and ancestral bones have already been demonized. The Demonic Soul has descended. Even digging up ancestral graves to wash ancestral bones now is too late!

Now, an ancestor of the Hua Clan must have completely revived their Demonic Soul!

Senior Zhuge, Senior Hua, the demons have descended, and catastrophe is imminent! You should make your choice as soon as possible!"
