The Art of Moving Mountains Shocks the Heavenly Court
The Five Mountains Emperor stroked his beard and praised, "Red Sky Master's cultivation has made further progress."
The Yamato nodded and said, "To have reached this point with a mortal body is truly not easy."
Red Sky Master looked at Li Hao and said, "Fellow Daoist, what do you think of my Zhai Xing- Plucking and Moon-Grabbing Technique?"
Li Hao smiled and said, "It's acceptable."
Red Sky Master frowned and coldly snorted, "Then I'll have to observe your supernatural abilities closely, fellow Daoist."
Li Hao looked up at the sky, which had returned to its Weilan, and then asked Red Sky Master, "There are countless Fan Xing in this sky, which one do you wish to see, fellow Daoist?"
Red Sky Master blinked, somewhat taken aback.
Which one do you want?
What does this mean?
Could it be him!?
Red Sky Master frowned and said, "Are you joking, fellow Daoist?"
Li Hao laughed and said, "Although I like to joke with my friends, we are no longer friends. Very well, perhaps you can't see clearly from here. I'll let you see clearly before we talk."
Before Red Sky Master could react, Li Hao finished speaking, and the surrounding scenery changed.
No, to be more precise, the location of the courtyard has changed.
At this moment, outside the courtyard was a deep, dim starry sky, with countless stars twinkling overhead.
The stars in Xu Xian's world are different from those in the universe. They are not fixed stars capable of melting everything, but rather special planets that adorn the dim starry sky. More accurately, they are similar to Grotto-Heaven.
Ordinary people who see this scene will not know what is going on, let alone how it differs from Red Sky Master's previous spellcasting.
However, Red Sky Master and the others possessed extraordinary cultivation and were fully aware of the current situation.
They stared at Li Hao in horror, their lips trembling as they couldn't utter a word.
They can go to the heavens and dive into the earth.
Taking people up to the sky and down to the earth is not difficult for them either.
But if we're talking about someone like Li Hao, leading so many people through the skies and into the depths, that's something no ordinary person could do. The most important question is, they still don't know what methods Li Hao used or how he brought everyone to the starry sky!
They couldn't even imagine what terrible things would happen if Li Hao attacked them with such supernatural power.
Li Hao smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, which star do you like? I'll pluck it for you, how about that?"
Red Sky Master concedes defeat."
As he spoke, he lowered his head, bowed to Li Hao, and said with shame, "Senior's cultivation is unfathomable. I, Red Sky Master, have spoken arrogantly before. Please forgive me."
Li Hao was somewhat disappointed.
He didn't even use his ultimate move, and the other side had already conceded defeat.
It's like having a stunningly beautiful woman right in front of you, completely naked, and you're about to go all the way to her and have a deep emotional exchange, when she suddenly says she's on her period—it's incredibly disappointing.
Although Li Hao was disappointed, he couldn't press the issue too hard.
He said, "Very well."
Before anyone could react to Li Hao's words, the surrounding scenery had already changed once again.
The sky was a clear, deep blue, and the ancient trees outside the courtyard were lush and full of life.
The group exchanged bewildered glances, filled with confusion.
They had no idea what had just happened, or why Red Sky Master had immediately admitted defeat.
Although they didn't understand, everyone had already witnessed Red Sky Master's actions and knew that for such a powerful figure to admit defeat, Li Hao must have used extraordinary methods.
As for not understanding it themselves, they don't care at all.
Are the methods of immortals and gods beyond the comprehension of mortals?
It's normal if you don't understand it!
The crowd looked at Li Hao with awe, and some couldn't help but cheer.
Li Hao ignored the others and turned to the solemn-looking Five Mountains Emperor and the Yamato, smiling slightly as he asked, "Gentlemen, who would like to go first?"
The Five Mountains Emperor and the Yamato exchanged a glance. The Five Mountains Emperor said, "I am the elder, so I shall go first."
Soon, the guests pulled out the competition items from the wooden box.
"The subject of this magical duel will be the Mountain Moving Technique."
Amidst the guests' loud shouts, everyone became excited.
We just had the Zhai Xing and seizing the moon, and now we have the art of moving mountains!
That's something only a god could do!
Li Hao said, "You go first."
The Five Mountains Emperor had already witnessed Li Hao's methods, so they didn't mince words.
He stroked his beard and said, "In that case, this old man will take his leave first."
As the Five Mountains Emperor spoke, he took a shaky step forward.
But his body, like a phantom, went from solid to ethereal, and finally vanished without a trace. Everyone was stunned and bewildered. Wasn't he supposed to be using the Mountain Moving Technique? How could he suddenly be gone?
Red Sky Master and the Yamato remained quite calm.
The art of moving mountains isn't something you can just do whenever you want.
Many famous mountains and rivers in the world are connected to the main veins of the earth. Let alone moving mountains, even the slightest movement would cause the sky to collapse and the earth to crack.
Although the Five Mountains Emperor is the head of all the earthly deities, he cannot violate the Heavenly Laws, nor can he cause chaos for a single competition. Therefore, if he wants to win this contest without violating the Heavenly Laws, he must carefully search for his target.
Such a massive project cannot be completed in a short period of time.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, just as everyone was getting impatient and even doubting whether the Five Mountains Emperor would still come, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky.
A black shadow appeared in the Weilan sky, heading towards the Qiantang River from afar.
The dark shape first resembled a soybean, but in the blink of an eye, it transformed into the appearance of Falcon.
After a short while, the shadowy figure became clearer.
It is a majestic mountain peak that is over two thousand meters high!
The mountain peaks stand tall and majestic, like divine weapons piercing the sky, floating in mid-air.
The mountain peaks did not set, but their enormous shadows blocked out the sunlight from nearly half of Qiantang River Town.
As everyone looked up at the sky and saw the mountain peaks floating in mid-air, their legs went weak, their hearts raced, and they felt utterly terrified.
While Zhai Xing and grasping the moon may seem fantastical, nothing beats the thrill of having an endless mountain peak floating overhead.
The figures of the Five Mountains Emperor reappeared.
His eyes narrowed to slits, and a kind smile graced his chubby face as he said, "Is my mountain-moving technique worthy of your attention, fellow Daoist?"
Li Hao nodded slightly. "It's not bad."
The Five Mountains Emperor laughed and said, "This technique is just a game; it's enough that it's somewhat entertaining."
He spoke with ease and confidence.
Meanwhile, Li Gongfu and the others nearby were already pale with fright.
Damn it, a mountain like Feilai Peak, which could destroy Qiantang River Town if it fell, is just a game to you?
I!
Li Gongfu's lips were dry, and his heart was pounding wildly.
He had never experienced anything so absurd or unbelievable in his entire life.
Before this, Li Gongfu even doubted whether immortals truly existed. After all, he had never seen an immortal, nor had he ever seen anyone come into contact with one.
But now, Li Gongfu believes it, he truly believes it.
He looked nervously at Li Hao and the Five Mountains Emperor, silently praying that these plague gods would leave soon.
Li Hao and the Five Mountains Emperor exchanged silent glances, neither of them uttering a word.
The Five Mountains Emperor ' expressions were very calm, extremely calm, even excessively so.
Chat Group.
Tushan Yaya: "Anyone with squinty eyes is a monster. This fat old man is definitely up to something."
Yan Lingji nodded seriously. "I also feel that there's something wrong with this old man."
Li Xunhuan: "He's too calm. This calmness is abnormal. Although he didn't show it too obviously when he left, he was definitely quite nervous. Now that he's come back from his stroll, his sudden calmness is definitely not right."
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader: "He is from the Heavenly Court."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader.
The Moon-Worshipping Cult Leader frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "I have studied the Heavenly Court of Xu Xian's world. Although it is somewhat different from the Heavenly Court of my world, it is not much different in general. The Heavenly Court controls the origin of heaven and earth and has the function of controlling yin and yang and managing the sun and moon."
The Heavenly Court is divided into Heavenly Gods and Earthly Deities. Heavenly Gods reside in the celestial realm, while Earthly Deities live in the human world and control the mountains and rivers of the world.
If this person is from the Heavenly Court, he most likely informed the Heavenly Court while he was away. This means the group leader is no longer facing a battle between two people, but a challenge to the entire Heavenly Court Court's control over the mountains and rivers.
Xu Xian: "That shouldn't be that bad, right?"
Gu Santong: "Tch, that's hard to say. I know many immortals and gods in the world of Journey to the West, and their power is almost the same as what the leader said."
I Dao Yi about the Earth Deities. Without their approval, moving mountains would be incredibly difficult. No wonder this old man was so calm all of a sudden; he was secretly plotting something."
Ming Yanwei: "Hmph, good luck, group leader! You must take down this wicked old man!"
Biyou: "Jia Yi, if he really gets someone to help him, that would be utterly shameless."
Looking at the Five Mountains Emperor' calm expression, Li Hao said with a half-smile, "Fellow Daoist seems to have victory in his grasp?"
The Five Mountains Emperor laughed and said, "I wouldn't say I'm certain of victory, but I do have some understanding of the Mountain Moving Technique. No matter how profound your cultivation is, without the permission of the Heavenly Laws, it will be difficult to shake the mountains."
Li Hao smiled without saying a word.
The other party had already made their point so clear; how could he not understand what they meant?
No mountain god would allow him to move a mountain without the permission of the Heavenly Court.
At the same time, Li Hao suspected that the Heavenly Court might be paying attention to this matter and to this place.
And indeed, things turned out exactly as Li Hao had guessed.
The Heavenly Court, the Hall of High Heaven.
A host of immortals and gods, led by the Jade Emperor, gathered in the center of the Hall of High Heaven, creating an image that resembled a holographic projection.
The scene depicted in the image is exactly what Li Gongfu's courtyard looks like.
The Jade Emperor, with a calm expression, looked around and asked, "What do you, my beloved ministers, think?"
"This person is incredibly audacious; heavenly soldiers and generals should be dispatched immediately to capture him."
"Absurd! This person is currently engaged in a magical duel with the Five Mountains Emperor. If we were to mobilize heavenly soldiers and generals, wouldn't we be laughed at for not daring to even engage in a minor magical duel? In my Heavenly Court, the most urgent task at present is to order all the earth deities under heaven to refrain from allowing anyone to move mountains and unload ridges. As for the matter of apprehending this person, we can discuss it further later."
"I second that opinion."
"I second that opinion."
