Chapter 792: Beyond the Way of Heaven
ane taking off!In a short while, the entire city came into view under Hao Ren's gaze. All the high-rise buildings were no bigger than specks of dust!After passing through another thick layer of clouds...Chapter 792: Beyond the Way of Heaven
Hum! Hum!
Seeing this, Zhen Fei and Qin Lang joined forces to urgently cast Skyland Seal on the entire city, enclosing everyone within.
If these demonic energies were to hit the city, at least tens of thousands of people would die!
Hao Ren looked at him and knew that he had lost his mind.
"What I want is Xie Yujia! Give her to me or else I'll kill all the mortals in this world!" Xu Ke raised his neck and roared again.
He cultivated within the demon's eye, sealed by demonic energy, as if he had spent millennia. Throughout this process, he never ceased thinking about revenge!
To imprison a person in a closed space for tens of thousands of years would drive anyone insane, even if they weren't already! The short days on land were like tens of thousands of years in the world within the demon's eye.
When Xu Ke mentioned Xie Yujia, he immediately hit Hao Ren's sore spot.
Lu Lingling and Lu Lili glanced at Hao Ren from the side and sensed that he was instantly enraged. If Xie Yujia were captured by the dragon, how could it be beneficial!
Shushushu... Hao Ren's Splitting Light Sword Technique surged out in an instant.
"You can't defeat me! Absolute power is me!" Xu Ke roared, sending another black demonic energy from his palm.
He had already gathered the intent of the Heaven Demon. With a little more time, he would reach the level of the Nine Petals Lotus like the world-creating dragon!
The world-creating dragon's descent to heaven and its fusion with Zhao Haoran's dragon spirit was also in line with the will of the world-creating dragon.
The arrival of both the world-ending Heaven Demon and the world-creating dragon signified that the world-creating dragon, representing the Way of Heaven, sensed a crisis and sought to eliminate the budding Heaven Demon.
But if two nine-petal lotuses representing Heaven and Hell were to fight here, the ultimate result would be the destruction of this world!
In other words, if Hao Ren couldn't defeat Xu Ke's seven-petal lotus, it would inevitably lead to Xu Ke's soul fusing completely with the will of the Heaven Demon. This would then result in a vicious battle between the nine-petal lotus Heaven Demon and the nine-petal lotus divine dragon... turning all life in this world into cannon fodder!
Clang... The demonic energy Xu Ke sent out easily dispersed Hao Ren's sword light.
The heavy demonic energy that rushed toward him made Hao Ren feel an unprecedented pressure! Even when his cultivation level was lower, he didn't find the pressure from a Vast Transformation period old woman as unbearable.
"Young Master, drink the Immortal Spring Water!" Lu Lingling and Lu Lili urged.
Hao Ren used sword light to block off the demonic energy and swallowed the precious drop of Immortal Spring Water.
In an instant, a cool and clear sensation surged through Hao Ren's forehead, thoroughly purifying his Five Elements Spiritual Energy and Chaos Lightning Power!
Light from all five colors radiated from Hao Ren's body as if he were a divine being descending to the mortal world.
"Young Master, we will help you!"
Lu Lingling and Lu Lili flew beside Hao Ren on either side, taking out Yin-Yang Rings and attacking the demonized Xu Ke.
If calculated strictly according to the Way of Heaven, it should be Zhao Kuo with the most extensive Five Elements Techniques—Splitting Light Sword Technique, the best Five Elements Mystic Crystals Seven Heart Five-colored Lotus, and the finest Heavenly Earth Divine Treasure Tram Sea Needle, inheriting the will of the world-creating dragon—who would battle the dragon.
Ya Zì was injured, Zhao Kuo didn't have the Magic Pin of Stabilizing the Sea, and only Hao Ren's Five Lotus stage could counteract the魔龍 (mythical dragon), which put them at a huge disadvantage!
This is why Zhuang Yuanzi felt he had caused a great calamity, making the situation more complicated!
"Get lost!" Xu Ke emitted a circle of black sound waves that instantly pushed Hao Ren and the Lu sisters back hundreds of meters.
Several thousand meters away, Kui and Zhen Fei, encircling the魔龍 (mythical dragon), exchanged glances, feeling something was amiss...Hao Ren wasn't a match for it at all!
If given another hundred or two hundred years, Hao Ren might have修煉到七瓣蓮 (cultivated to the Seven Lotus stage). But now, Heaven's Way had fallen out of alignment!
Xiwangmu at the Seven Lotus stage needed to oversee Heavenly Realm; Zhuang Yuanzi at the same level needed to manage Earthly Realm. These two couldn't easily intervene. As for the Eight Lotus stage祖龍 (Ancestral Dragons), they were meant to uphold Heaven and Earth, so they certainly shouldn't move on this day when the魔龍 (mythical dragon) appeared; but it was Yan Zì who should be overseeing Heavenly and Earthly realms that got injured!
Lu L琳琳 and Lu莉莉 (the sisters), who were assisting Xi Wangmu in handling affairs of Heavenly Realm, were only at the Seven Lotus stage themselves. They could barely fend for themselves and weren't complete fighters—they couldn't injure the魔龍 (mythical dragon) even a little bit!
The Magic Pin of Stabilizing the Sea that should suppress the魔龍 (mythical dragon) was unable to unleash its true power due to Hao Ren's Five Lotus stage.
"Seal!"
Zhen Fei, Kui, Qin Lang, and Su Rui exchanged glances and finally formed a "Four Directions Great Array"!
This formation was taught by Xi Wangmu to Zhen Fei when she was on Mount Kunlun. With her talent for inheriting the array of Qiu Niu (a type of dragon), she quickly mastered it, but had never used it.
Now, under her control, they were finally going to use it!
The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird!
In four directions, the corresponding totems appeared!
Zhen Fei naturally stood in the position of the Vermilion Bird; Qin Lang displayed the pattern of the Azure Dragon; Kui and Su Rui represented the White Tiger and Black Tortoise respectively.
Due to their different cultivation stages and affiliations, this hastily arranged formation wasn't very stable. But it was a formation made up by four Five Lotus stage cultivators, complementing each other's spiritual energy, and it actually summoned complete totems that entwined around Xu Ke!
"Attack!" Hao Ren seized the opportunity; the Magic Pin of Stabilizing the Sea condensed into streams of light, fiercely striking Xu Ke.
The Lu sisters didn't hesitate either. Their black and white rings transformed into two dazzling beams representing Heaven and Earth’s yin-yang forces, heavily slashing towards Xu Ke.
Wooh! Wooh!
The Lu sisters' black and white rings directly severed the魔龍 (mythical dragon)'s hands.
Hao Ren's sword river transformed by the Magic Pin of Stabilizing the Sea pierced through Xu Ke's chest, which was covered in blackness.
This "Four Directions Great Array" only lasted for a short while. The魔龍 (mythical dragon)凝聚魔氣而成 (was formed from condensed demonic aura), merely gathering Xu Ke’s consciousness, was powerful but also exceptionally fragile.
But if it were to escape, by absorbing countless ordinary people's essence blood, it could form a complete body; then killing it wouldn't be that easy!
Xu Ke's image gradually dissipated into pieces of black gas, which Hao Ren’s chaotic thunder force sword beams cut down entirely.
The Lu sisters looked at each other and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhen Fei also exhaled deeply; the makeshift Four Directions Formation could actually lock in the魔龍 (mythical dragon), which was beyond her expectations.
Xu Ke was merely a fragmentary soul remnant of Taixi Cave's master, who originally had chances to survive but lost his heart pursuing uncontrollable power. Hao Ren expended all his spiritual energy and shook his head slightly, somewhat moved.
Huff huff huff… Just as Hao Ren was about to check the city's situation, he suddenly heard roaring winds in the high sky.
He turned his head and saw a black light formed by dark air currents rushing towards his back!
Lulina and Lili hurriedly reached out to strike the black light, but they knew that their strength was insufficient! Who could have thought that this dragon wouldn’t die after all and still had the power of resurrection despite being beaten into a pulp by the Divine Needle
Ring… A colored ray suddenly flew up.
Duan Yao, dressed in a short jacket skirt, suddenly appeared before Hao Ren.
The protective barrier that Empress Zhen had given her shattered. Her Seven-Colored Treasure Robe was instantly penetrated by the black light.
As Duan Yao floated up, she looked like a piece of colored cloth being hit towards Hao Ren.
"Yao'er!" Empress Zhen exclaimed in shock.
Seriously, how could she have expected that Duan Yao would suddenly rush out and protect Hao Ren from the dragon’s counterattack
Empress Zhen transformed into a streak of light and instantly rushed to Hao Ren's side, catching Duan Yao in her arms.
She was Duan Yao’s master. She herself had crafted Duan Yao’s treasures and clothes; she knew that these items couldn’t possibly defend against the dragon’s retaliation!
But she just didn't understand how could a Duan Yao who had sworn to kill Hao Ren…Hao Ren stared blankly at Duan Yao's instantly pale face.
He had invited her for spicy chicken wings, and their tense relationship was just starting to ease up. When he rushed out of the fast food restaurant, she seemed like she wanted to say something...
"Master… I just don’t want him to die at someone else’s hands…" Duan Yao said through gritted teeth, her big eyes glaring as she lay across Empress Zhen's arms.
"Fool... you silly fool..." Empress Zhen's voice was trembling.
She liked Duan Yao. It was because of Duan Yao’s stubborn personality that was almost exactly like hers; she had planned to raise her as if she were her daughter and pass on everything she knew to her, so that Duan Yao could become the most alluring Great Demoness in the world…
"I Duan Yao... have no regrets…" Duan Yao forced a smile. Her thin lips curved into an arc.
Hao Ren was panting heavily, staring at Duan Yao with his heart thudding uncontrollably.
Whoosh… Black demonic aura rushed out of Duan Yao’s body and gradually condensed into Xu Ke’s smiling face before striking Hao Ren!
"Dare to harm my third brother!"
A thunderous voice suddenly rang through the sky, making Hao Ren feel like his soul was being pulled out. The Divine Needle that had already been fused with him instantly flew out from above his head!
Wearing a yellow robe, Sun Wukong grabbed the Divine Needle and smashed it down onto Xu Ke who was gradually becoming clear.
The sky turned dark!
The fine tip of the stick instantly became as thick as a mountain!
The seven-petal lotus dragon that had been about to release its infinite demonic aura was directly smashed into a flat pile!
Hao Ren’s anger flared up. The Divine Needle suddenly returned to his body and emitted golden light covering the sky, striking the fragmented dragon again.
Hit hit hit!
Hao Ren controlled the Divine Needle as if he were crazy, hitting the dragon's remains.
The streaks of stick shadows flew across the sky. Hao Ren’s Spirit Crystals nearly ran out of power, blasting this dragon into non-existence!
He kept on striking until the surrounding islands were flattened and the sea was turned into a crater hundreds of meters deep!
Zhenyuanzi flew over from afar and, upon seeing the evil dragon destroyed, left quietly.
Sun Wukong is the only exceptional figure free from the Heavenly Dao's control in millions of years; whether or not he will intervene is even beyond the prediction of the Heavenly Dao. Yet who would have thought that he would help Hao Ren
Now it seems that Hao Ren too might become someone outside of the Heavenly Dao.
To have two individuals capable of detaching themselves from the Heavenly Dao as sworn brothers is truly impressive... Zhenyuanzi proudly floated away on a cloud.
"Hmph!" Sun Wukong used his Ruyi Jingu Bang to strike and kill the evil dragon before disappearing into thin air with a flash of light.
Hao Ren called him "Second Brother," so he accepted Hao Ren as his "Third Brother."
After fighting until drenched in sweat, Hao Ren turned around sharply to see Duan Yao leaning on Zhen Fei's arms. Clearly, she was already faint.
Duan Yao rushed forward and defended him, a move even beyond Zhen Fei’s expectations. He himself had never thought of it either. It was such a moment that he couldn’t find the words to describe his shock.
"Yao'er! Yao'er!"
Zhen Fei saw Duan Yao's life slipping away and worriedly infused her with her own vital energy.
Duan Yao’s body contained pieces of the Kunlun Divine Lamp, which should be able to lock her soul. Zhen Fei would use both her phoenix blood and her husband’s qilin blood to revive her.
She liked Duan Yao more than she did Zhen Cangming, but she hadn’t shown it.
"Master... I wish for death... there's no need to save me..." said Duan Yao weakly.
Alone and destitute with nowhere to go, life had lost its meaning. Even her last hopes were gone; clearly, she would have to leave the land. Zhen Fei looked up and saw Hao Ren flying over, giving a start: "Do you like this boy!"
Without waiting for an answer from Duan Yao, she continued, “If you do, I’ll forcibly keep him by your side!”
Hearing Zhen Fei’s words, Duan Yao gave a bitter smile but did not respond, lacking the strength.
Zhen Fei noticed Duan Yao's life force rapidly dissipating and decisively pressed his palm to her forehead. A divine lamp-shaped treasure gradually pieced itself together around her head.
"Celestial body! Five Elements bloodline!" Zhen Fei suddenly reached out for Hao Ren.
Kui and Su Rui tried to stop her, but she pushed them away.
Hao Ren felt a chill in his wrist as he bled profusely.
Zhen Fei pulled the partially repaired Kunlun Divine Lamp from Duan Yao's forehead and immediately chanted complex incantations, collecting Hao Ren’s blood inside it.
"This is all Master can do! You save who you want to!" Zhen Fei clenched her teeth, transforming the Kunlun Divine Lamp into a microcosmic world. Using an inconceivable technique, she sealed Duan Yao within.
Zhen Fei used reverse heavenly array methods to urgently utilize the Kunlun Divine Lamp within Duan Yao’s body while there was still a sliver of life force left and placed her in the microcosmic world.
This Kunlun Divine Lamp, activated by Hao Ren's blood, formed an inevitable connection with him—only he could open this microcosmic world!
Although Duan Yao did not answer, Zhen Fei knew what she thought!
Among these people, only Hao Ren seemed to have a chance of reaching the eight-petaled lotus realm.heavier and heavier; it should be due to his own growing power, according to what Lu Linying and Lu Liying said. As long as the body’s five elements reached equilibrium, they would smoothly reach the...
