The battle has come to a complete end.
Above the ruins, the billowing smoke and raging energy slowly subsided.
Only the lingering pure Daoist essence and the vital energy of Nirvana power after the Five-Colored Divine Light faded rippled slightly in the air.
Li Qingshan stood alone in the arena, the surging divine power and vast strange phenomena around him gradually subsiding and finally returning to calm.
The "injuries to the Dao" he suffered had already been healed by the power of Nirvana.
His aura was perfectly harmonious and flawless, his spirit complete and his energy abundant, profound and unfathomable, just like the breathtaking, life-or-death series of deadly attacks he had just witnessed.
It was merely a rehearsal to test one's proficiency in Daoist techniques and supernatural abilities.
He calmly waved his hand, scattering the fallen fragment of the black iron seal, a relic of King artifact.
He also put away a few other valuable spoils of war, including the completely lifeless black dagger.
His gaze swept indifferently over the area, which had become like the beginning of chaos due to the successive battles.
A desolate mountain range, as if everything Return to the Ruins.
Just then, a streak of dark light shot out from behind a seemingly ordinary pile of rocks in the distance.
It landed precisely beside him; it was the Black Emperor.
The Big Black Dog no longer showed any of the tension it had shown before; instead, it wore a smug expression of "everything is under control."
"Woof woof! How about it, kid?"
I warned you long ago!
Is it exactly the same?
The Black Emperor stood upright, patting its chest triumphantly with one paw.
The dog's other paw pointed to where it had just been hiding, where the faint, mysterious array of light was slowly fading away.
"Hmph! Those four cowardly bugs think they're the best at hiding."
Little did they know that just as they emerged from the crack in the Void, attempting to get closer...
The " God-Peering Array " I set up has already detected their presence!
Although they concealed their presence extremely well, almost blending into the shattered background of the Void.
But how could it possibly escape the notice of this Emperor, whose eyes have glimpsed the supreme Dao and whose array patterns are so mysterious and unfathomable?
Its dog face was full of "praise me!" expressions. It took a few steps closer and lowered its voice, saying, "I immediately used a secret technique to transmit my voice to you:"
Be careful, there are four venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, already close by. Half-Step Great Power, possibly Assassin Divine Dynasty.
How about it?
Was this early warning timely?
This prepared you so that you could turn the tables and stage such a Nirvana play of rebirth and luring your prey into a trap!
Otherwise, even if you have a backup plan, taking four beams of God-Eating Dark Light head-on in a rush will be enough to get you into trouble, won't it?"
Looking at the eager-to-claim-credit Black Emperor, Li Qingshan's indifferent expression softened into a barely perceptible curve.
He received a warning from the Black Emperor that was extremely subtle yet resonated directly within his Immortal Platform consciousness.
It was this early warning that allowed him to act in that split second.
To be able to adjust strategies so calmly and choose the most advantageous way to deal with this decisive blow.
Rather than relying solely on on-the-spot reactions.
This damn dog may be unreliable most of the time, but it's reliable in crucial moments.
It is indeed unique, especially in terms of formations and survival.
"Hmm, the formation and early warning were timely enough," he said with a nonchalant affirmation.
Upon hearing this, Black Emperor's tail practically flew to the sky, and he immediately seized the opportunity. "Woof! More than just timely!"
It was a miraculous turn of events!
This emperor possesses keen insight, profound knowledge of array formations, and the ability to make decisive telepathic communication.
Did you perform a great service?
Shouldn't we reward them properly?
For example, give me a few drops of Divine Phoenix Precious Liquid, or a few pieces of Dragon-Patterned Black Gold to grind my teeth,"
Li Qingshan shook his head slightly, interrupting its incessant chatter. "Record the merits."
The reward will depend on your future performance.
Upon hearing this, Black Emperor's eyes lit up, even though he didn't immediately get his hands on the actual item.
But getting this kid to personally acknowledge and record the credit is already a major breakthrough.
It immediately followed Li Qingshan's footsteps, wagging its tail and muttering, "Woof! That's more like it!"
"Let's go, let's go. I know of a hidden spiritual cave nearby, which might even hold some treasures left behind by our ancestors."
Before he finished speaking, Li Qingshan's figure had already transformed into a form that was not dazzling.
Yet it seemed to have completely merged into the very fabric of heaven and earth.
The profound Dao traces, which had merged with the Dao, instantly tore through the Void and disappeared at the edge of the horizon.
"Hey! Wait for me!"
Crossing the river and then dismantling the bridge—no, it's like using someone and then discarding them.
That's not right either! In short, you're not being fair!
Black Emperor roared, his feet flashing with dark light as he used a secret technique, cursing but chasing after them with unparalleled precision.
The figures of a man and a dog quickly disappeared into the vast world, with no trace or breath left.
Soon after, this was confirmed by multiple secretive yet authoritative sources.
The increasingly detailed and shocking news was like several ancient demonic stars colliding with the Big Dipper Ancient Star in succession.
The resulting cataclysmic tsunamis surged one after another, originating from the Holy City.
It swept through and shook the vast eastern Eastern Wasteland at an unprecedented speed.
It even spread to the Central Continent, the Western Desert, the Southern Ridge, and the Northern Plains.
This triggered a massive uproar and an uproar that swept across the entire Big Dipper cultivation community!
"Have you heard? Something terrible has happened in the Holy City of the Northern Region!"
Li Qingshan, the Jade Pool Holy Son, defied the heavens and killed a Mighty Figure at the Immortal Two of the Immortal Realm!
In a bustling ancient city restaurant in the Central Region the Eastern Wasteland.
One of the monks was talking animatedly to his tablemates, his face full of excitement and disbelief.
It was as if I had witnessed that earth-shattering battle firsthand.
"It's more than just slaughtering them!"
It was a crushing defeat! It was a defiant act!
I heard that Mighty Figure also wields a King weapon!
And the result?
"Li Shengzi stepped into the Divine Forbidden Domain, a realm that only Ancient Great Emperor could possibly reach in their youth."
They managed to turn the tables and kill them!
My God, this Divine Forbidden!
That's a realm from mythology!
Ancient texts record that those who can reach this realm, barring unforeseen circumstances, will at least achieve the status of Quasi-Emperor in the future!
Another person added, their voice trembling with excitement, their hand nearly crushing the wine glass in their hand.
"That's not all! Even more terrifying and outrageous things are yet to come!"
An elderly monk, well-informed and seemingly connected to an intelligence organization, lowered his voice, his face showing extreme awe and lingering fear.
It is said that the " Assassin Divine Dynasty in the Human World " also secretly made a move, sending out four top assassins at the Half-Step Great Power.
Codename: Shadows of the Void!
Taking advantage of the moment when Li Shengzi was at his most relaxed after the battle, they set up a foolproof trap that would surely lead to his death!
Four deadly beams of light, each containing the Dao-Eroding Poison.
He was struck almost simultaneously in four vital areas: his brow, heart, dantian (lower abdomen), and spine!
The restaurant fell into a deathly silence; you could hear a pin drop. Everyone held their breath, their hearts clenching as if gripped by an invisible hand.
"And then? Li Shengzi, he..."
Someone asked in a trembling, hoarse voice.
"Then?"
The old cultivator took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with a fanatical light as if he were witnessing the birth of a myth. "Then, an unprecedented seven-colored divine light erupted from Li Shengzi's body!"
That fatal Dao injury, enough to instantly kill any cultivator at the Immortal Platform and be beyond the saving of even True Immortal, was healed in the blink of an eye!
His aura instantly returned to its peak, or even stronger!
Immediately afterwards, the Five-Colored Divine Light swept across the universe, as if Heavenly God were waving a whisk to sweep away dust.
They turned the tables and killed all four of those top assassins who were feared by all!
Not a single one will be spared; their bodies and souls will be annihilated!
"Hiss!!!" The news from the Passerby Great Emperor was terrifying.
A chorus of gasps filled the entire restaurant, and the temperature in Big Dipper seemed to drop several degrees.
Reversing life and death? Instantly killing four top-tier assassins who Half-Step Great Power?
This is no longer as simple as challenging someone of a higher level.
This is simply defying common sense and overturning all perceptions.
It redefined the upper limit of their understanding of terms like "prodigy" and "monster"!
" Innate Dao Embryo, Five-Colored Divine Light, Divine Forbidden Domain, Nirvana Rebirth."
Could this Li Qingshan really be the reincarnation of some ancient emperor?
Immortal One to defeat the Immortal Two, wielding King's weapon—how many figures throughout history have achieved such a feat?
He can be called the Eastern King of Jade Pool.
Some people muttered to themselves, their Daoist hearts swaying, feeling the Dao they had cultivated for hundreds of years.
Compared to such a glorious record, our achievements seem so pale and powerless.
Similar scenes unfolded repeatedly in the Eastern Wasteland, Central Continent, and Southern Ridge, in various ancient cities, sects, markets, and taverns.
The name Li Qingshan, with unprecedented intensity and brilliance, was deeply imprinted in the hearts and minds of every cultivator.
It even carried a hint of awe and worship.
His image has been completely transformed from that of the "lucky one" who possessed divine abilities in Source Arts and extracted celestial treasures.
He transformed into a being with unparalleled combat power, extraordinary abilities, and unfathomable depths of knowledge.
A young and powerful figure who would make even a Saint Lord-level figure wary!
The reactions of the Supreme Holy Land and the Desolate Ancient Family were even more profound and solemn:
Deep within the Yaoguang Holy Land, in an ancient hall shrouded in holy light, an aged yet majestic voice echoed, " Divine Forbidden, he has actually stepped into that realm. It seems the struggle for Yaoguang's 'Holy Son' needs to be expedited."
This person is undoubtedly one of the greatest adversaries of the Emperor's Path.
In the shadows, a figure enveloped in endless holy light, with an aura as deep and boundless as the ocean, slowly opened his eyes.
A terrifying vision flashed in his eyes: the destruction of stars and the birth of the universe.
Inside the Void Temple of the Ji Family, several elders of the living fossil level had solemn expressions.
"The traces of the Void Scripture are uncertain, but we must be wary of them."
Orders were issued to secretly investigate all branches connected to the outer realms, especially those with recent unusual resource movements.
Furthermore, maintain the highest level of vigilance towards Jade Pool, but refrain from any hostile actions for the time being.
A phantom image of the patriarch, shrouded in Void mist, issued a command, his voice carrying a barely perceptible hint of gloom.
In the God King of the Jiang Family, an old man with an aura as scorching as the sun stroked his beard and sighed, "This person's aura has been fully formed, like the rising sun, unstoppable."
"Give the order: If any of my Jiang Family encounter the Jade Pool Holy Son outside, they should treat him with courtesy, discuss the Dao, and not create enmity."
The old man thought to himself:
It is said that the return of the God King Ancestor is also related to the Jade Pool Holy Son.
Unfortunately, after the patriarch returned, he entered Nirvana of profound stillness and rebirth.
I don't know more information, but it's still a good thing.
Beside him, a peerless Divine King Body's eyes gleamed, his fighting spirit restrained, but his clenched fists revealed his inner turmoil.
If the Desolate Antiquity Ji Family and Jiang Family were in such a state, the other major sects and divine dynasties were even more shaken.
"Check!
I will stop at nothing, using all my undercover agents, to find out everything about Li Qingshan's past.
Every technique he practiced, all the secrets of his physique!
Even his possible connection with the Queen Mother of the West!
Inside the deep palace of an immortal dynasty, the emperor's voice carried an unquestionable majesty, even containing a hint of urgency.
"Pass down the order: all disciples of my clan must not clashed with disciples of Jade Pool while outside!"
Especially, absolutely, absolutely do not provoke Li Qingshan!
Those who disobey will be expelled from their family!
The head of a powerful ancient family, with an unprecedentedly solemn expression, issued a death order to the elders.
" The Immortal One defied the Immortal Two, the Divine Forbidden, the Five-Colored Divine Light —this person possesses too many Fortune and secrets."
The message has been sent out: it's time for my "divine child" to go out and meet this Jade Pool Holy Son.
In another ancient cult located on the outskirts of Life Forbidden Zone, ancient beings whisper.
Meanwhile, in the distant Northern Plains, on an ancient divine land covered in ice and snow, yet brimming with astonishing dragon energy and vitality.
Inside a magnificent palace, towering like a divine mountain and forged from millennia-old ice and an unknown divine iron, the atmosphere was solemn.
This is the Wang Family home of the Wang family, one of the overlords of the Northern Plains.
In the center of the main hall, a middle-aged man dressed in Purple Gold dragon-patterned battle robe, with a majestic and godlike face, sat in the main seat.
He was the current head of the Wang Family, and his aura was unfathomable, with laws faintly surrounding his body.
He held a jade slip that shimmered with starlight in his hand, which contained detailed information about Li Qingshan's battle achievements.
" Immortal One Slaying Immortal Two, Divine Forbidden Domain, Five-Colored Divine Light, Nirvana Technique,"
The Wang Family patriarch spoke slowly, his voice like the clang of metal echoing through the hall, " The Eastern Wasteland has produced a remarkable figure; it seems Teng'er's greatest enemy has appeared."
He raised his head from the light, as if piercing through layers of palace walls, and looked towards a sacred mountain shrouded in chaotic energy deep within the clan.
"Go and deliver this intelligence, intact, to Teng'er's place in seclusion."
He instructed an elder below, whose aura was powerful, his tone carrying an indescribable mix of expectation and pride, "Tell him that the real opponent has appeared."
Blindly practicing asceticism is not the way to success; the path to becoming an emperor requires traversing blood and fire, allowing him to make his own decision.
The " Teng'er " he mentioned was none other than Wang Teng, a rare genius in the Wang Family, known as the " Northern Emperor "!
It is said that he inherited the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Great Emperor in his childhood and has a golden ancient war chariot with him.
His talent is unparalleled throughout history, and his cultivation has already reached the Immortal Platform Secret Realm. He is regarded as one of the most powerful contenders for the throne in this Lifetime.
Li Qingshan's sudden emergence undoubtedly gave this proud and arrogant Northern Emperor a reason to leave the pass.
