Cult Master Tongtian Incites Havoc in the Heavenly Palace
"What a powerful physique!" The White Tiger stood up despite the pain, its eyes filled with shock.
Tieguai Li sneered, "This is my own power!" After saying that, he ignored the White Tiger and walked directly into the depths of the Heavenly Court.
Watching Tieguai Li's retreating figure, the White Tiger gritted its teeth. "That Tieguai Li is too arrogant!"
"That's normal. Who told him to be so powerful? Brother White Tiger, let's leave him alone. Let's leave this to the King. The King has his own way of dealing with him," Barefoot Great Immortal advised.
"That's true!" White Tiger nodded, then turned and left.
"Brother, I think we've shot ourselves in the foot this time."
"Hmph, who told that Tieguai Li to be so disrespectful to us? How can we swallow this insult?"
"So what do we do now? Should we continue to entangle with that Tieguai Li, or wait for the King to take Tieguai Li down?"
"I think we should do this: let's go and ask the king to capture him."
"Good."
The two then immediately flew towards the depths of the Heavenly Court.
Tieguai Li, however, calmly walked deeper into the Heavenly Palace. He knew this was just a charade, and he had no intention of escaping.
Deep within the Heavenly Palace, there stands a colossal altar, surrounded by numerous White Tiger, each radiating Sha Qi. Clearly, this Sha Qi is not caused by ordinary things, but by the many wronged souls within.
Inside a large hall on the altar, a young man dressed in purple robes was resting with his eyes closed, seemingly asleep.
"I bow to Your Majesty!"
Suddenly, a sound of kowtows resounded throughout the entire hall, and the White Tiger also knelt down.
The young man opened his eyes, his gaze filled with displeasure.
The young man was none other than the Jade Emperor. Looking at everything before him, the Jade Emperor frowned. "You two, weren't you supposed to be guarding Tieguai Li at the gate? How did you let him in? Don't you know who he is?"
A guard stepped forward, bowing his head, and said, "Your Majesty, this man calls himself Tieguai Li, a Rogue Cultivator, but he possesses a unique skill called the Iron Crutch Staff, which can break countless restrictions."
"Oh, so it's Tieguai Li." Upon hearing the guard's report, the Jade Emperor's anger subsided by half. "Tieguai Li, Iron Crutch Monkey, how dare you trespass into my Heavenly Court and cause trouble! You're courting death!"
"Your Majesty, this Tieguai Li is highly skilled, and he seems to have already broken through to the Primordial Spirit Realm. Therefore, I must be cautious. I request Your Majesty to grant me a set of High Antiquity weapons. I will surely slay this villain and rid Your Majesty of this scourge!" the guard pleaded.
"Alright, then go and get it," said the Jade Emperor.
"Yes."
The guard then turned and walked deeper into the hall, quickly returning with a golden spear. One end of the spear was a black iron rod, and the other end was a gleaming golden spear.
When Tieguai Li saw the golden spear, he was overjoyed, for this spear was a High Antiquity Divine Artifact with boundless power, a treasure he had always wanted to obtain, but had never had the fortuitous opportunity.
"Kid, just wait and see what happens!" The guard thought smugly as he watched Tieguai Li's eyes light up as he looked at his treasure.
Tieguai Li naturally noticed the mockery in the guard's eyes, but he pretended not to see it, stretched out his right hand, grabbed the spear, and charged towards the guard.
With a "bang".
With a flick of his spear, he sent Tieguai Li flying.
However, Tieguai Li was not injured.
Tieguai Li charged at the guard again.
"You think I'm afraid of you?" The guard charged forward defiantly.
The two soon found themselves fighting.
Both of them were already Nascent Soul Realm stage experts, and their battle was extremely terrifying. They fought fiercely, and for a time neither could gain the upper hand.
Just as they were locked in fierce combat, suddenly, a dragon's roar resounded throughout the land.
Immediately afterward, an Azure Dragon appeared above them, circling in the sky, its dragon eyes staring down at the two men below.
The two immediately stopped fighting and knelt down before the azure Azure Dragon: "Greetings, Azure Dragon King."
The Azure Dragon coldly stared at Tieguai Li and True Person Yuxu.
He said calmly, "Gentlemen, your unauthorized departure is a serious offense!"
"Lord Azure Dragon, he trespassed into my territory on his own. We don't know what happened!" True Person Yuxu quickly explained.
"Hmph! Are you trying to make excuses?" Azure Dragon sneered. "I think you're all tired of living." With that, Azure Dragon opened its mouth and spewed out a cloud of black mist.
The black mist instantly enveloped the two of them.
"Ahhh!!!" A scream rang out, and Jade Void True Person Yuxu's legs went weak with fear. Tieguai Li, however, was fearless and struck at the Azure Dragon: "I don't know what is righteous and what is evil!"
Having said that, Tieguai Li swung his Iron Crutch Staff and attacked the Azure Dragon fiercely.
The moment Azure Dragon saw Tieguai Li, his expression changed, and he quickly dodged away.
"This Iron Crutch Staff is a High Antiquity spiritual treasure. If you confront it head-on, you will undoubtedly be defeated," the azure Azure Dragon warned.
"I know."
Tieguai Li knew this too. He really didn't intend to fight head-on. However, since the Azure Dragon didn't take the initiative, Tieguai Li had no choice but to test its strength first.
"Rumble~~~~~~~~~"
He slammed his fist into the stone pillar beneath the Azure Dragon, instantly shattering it into dust, the stone fragments flying everywhere.
This scene made everyone's hearts pound. This was a stone pillar weighing hundreds of kilograms, yet Tieguai Li smashed it with such a simple punch. How much power must that be? How strong and heavy must his fist be!
Fear was evident in everyone's eyes as they looked at Tieguai Li.
"Snort!"
The Azure Dragon snorted coldly, then pointed at Tieguai Li. Instantly, countless green vines shot out from the vines and swept towards Tieguai Li.
Tieguai Li watched as the green vines swept towards him, but he remained completely calm. Golden light flashed around Tieguai Li body as he pushed his Vajra Indestructible Divine Art to its limit. He then raised his spear and thrust it at the vines with all his might.
The sounds of "plop plop plop" echoed throughout every corner of the Heavenly Court. The vines were pierced by the spears, but no bright red liquid flowed out.
Tieguai Li was extremely surprised. He knew that his Vajra Indestructible Divine Art Skill was very powerful, but he did not expect that this Azure Dragon was so powerful that he could ignore his Vajra Indestructible Divine Art.
