"Defeat? Hahahaha... Then let the entire Luoshen City be buried with you!"
"Stubborn fool! Since you want to die, then I'll send you on your way!"
Jiang Liu raised his fist again, drops of golden blood falling and hitting the ground, heavier than metal. Those two punches just now were not easy even for a human immortal, and he was injured.
With Jiang Liu's physical body having reached the realm of "flesh and blood regeneration," ordinary injuries could be healed with a flick of the wrist. However, the Frost Elder's icy power was also extremely formidable, actually freezing the wound and blocking the healing process. Sensing the seriousness of the situation, Jiang Liu let out a cold shout, and terrifying killing intent transformed into unparalleled sharpness that surged forth, piercing the sky.
"This day next year will be the anniversary of your death, a day to send you on your way!"
A long golden rope coiled around the Old Man of Winter, and at the same time, a small bronze cauldron appeared in the void.
As soon as the small cauldron appeared, its mouth, like a black hole, swallowed the "Ten Thousand Mountains Spirit Stele" that was about to self-destruct. Immediately afterward, a thunderous roar erupted from within, like the first thunderclaps, its power terrifying.
The ultimate sacred object, the "Ten Thousand Mountains Spirit Tablet," did not self-destruct. It was suppressed by the bronze cauldron, which stopped it in time, and not much energy was leaked out.
A crisis was quietly averted, and Jiang Liu secretly exhaled, but his killing intent was as real as if it were emanating from his body, covering the Old Man of Winter. He clenched his fist, and the restrained divine light burst out from the wound on his fist, releasing a terrifying aura.
"I am the Grand Elder of the Western Heaven Battle Hall, how dare you kill me!" The old man of the cold winter was naturally unable to break free from the binding force of the Immortal Binding Rope. Seeing that even the "Ten Thousand Mountains Spirit Tablet" could not be destroyed, he immediately announced the names of the "Western Heaven Battle Hall" and "Western Heaven Battle Emperor" again.
As a Celestial Supreme Being of Immortal Rank, few dare to offend him easily.
But Jiang Liu was one of those few!
"I said I'd send you on your way today, and I won't put it off until tomorrow..."
Jiang Liu threw a third punch. The old man of Winter had already witnessed the power of the punch and knew that his physical body could hardly withstand it. However, he was bound by the Immortal Binding Rope. Although his strength was not completely suppressed, it was weakened by more than five-tenths.
The fist became clearer and clearer before his eyes. He tried to activate his battle spirit power and battle runes, but found that he couldn't block it at all.
"I surrender...I..."
"boom!"
The violent power completely destroyed his life force, turning him into a cloud of blood mist that drifted away with the biting cold wind.
The hearts of everyone in Luoshen City sank to the bottom with that punch, feeling as if the sky had completely collapsed. Even Luo Qing slumped to the ground, feeling that the Luoshen Clan was not far from destruction.
Jiang Liu then took a step, breaking through the void, and chased after the four people who had escaped.
The gap in strength is too large; catching up is not difficult.
Soon after, Ling Zhanzi discovered a figure in the sky, like a god or demon, with the surrounding space emitting bursts of wind and thunder, and a blazing divine rainbow blocking the way.
Chapter 434 The Ancient War Emperor's Dharma Body
"Why have you blocked our path?"
Ling Zhanzi faced Jiang Liu and it took him a long time to calm down. He didn't mention the battle he had just witnessed outside Luoshen City, nor did he mention that he and his three companions were the personal disciples of the Western Heaven War Emperor.
He knew that even if he revealed his identity, the person in front of him might not let him go.
As for Ling Jianzi, Ling Longzi, and Ling Feizi, their temperaments are all considerably inferior to Ling Zhanzi's.
Ling Jianzi pressed his hand against the sharp sword, the veins on his hand bulging. Although he knew that his strength was no match for the person in front of him, it seemed that only by holding the sharp sword could he calm his heart, which was about to be ripped out of his throat.
As for drawing the sword!
He's still planning it!
Moreover, he knew in his heart that if he didn't even have the courage to draw his sword today, then his achievements in this life would be over.
The heart of the sword lies in moving forward without hesitation. His sword is very strong, otherwise he would not have become the disciple of the Western Heaven War Emperor, and he would not have broken through to the Supreme level and become the Earth Supreme.
But today, he was in agony as he drew his sword, because the overwhelming pressure was so overwhelming that it completely suppressed him, both his body and soul.
Linglongzi clenched his fists, and the dragon-scale-like scales on his skin bristled, just like the trembling of a normal human's hair.
Ling Feizi was originally a beautiful and charming woman, but she was also the weakest in strength. Now she was in the most vulnerable state, and the expression on her face was stiff.
"Now that you're here, why go back so soon? I've been wanting to study the Western Heaven War Emperor's divine abilities, and I think you can satisfy my needs!"
Now that he had killed the Old Man of Winter and thoroughly offended the Western Heaven War Emperor, Jiang Liu no longer cared about capturing these four people and obtaining the Western Heaven War Emperor's ancient war emperor avatar.
To truly condense the supreme Dharma body, one must integrate the teachings of all schools. Jiang Liu currently possesses the majestic Dharma body of his original self, imbued with heavenly power, and the true Dharma body of Amitabha Buddha from the past. Although both possess supreme power, it is still insufficient…
The world of the Great Ruler contains many primordial Dharma bodies. If all ninety-nine supreme Dharma bodies could be obtained and examined, they could definitely be fused together, and supernatural powers would naturally emerge.
Jiang Liu was naturally extremely interested in this ancient war emperor's avatar, which ranked twenty-fourth.
Ling Zhanzi narrowed his eyes, his gaze burning with intense fighting spirit, and said in a deep voice, "Since you know we are disciples of the War Emperor, are you still going to make things difficult for us?"
"Hehe, the Luoshen Clan's Luoshen Technique is now in my possession. The Luoshen Clan was wise to have foresight, otherwise I would have slaughtered their entire clan. Since you have walked right into my trap, why would I refuse to take you in!"
Jiang Liu spoke in this way for the sake of the Luo Shen Clan. After all, he had offended the Western Heaven Battle Palace badly. He could simply pack up and leave, and the Western Heaven Battle Emperor could only watch helplessly. But the Luo Shen Clan could not leave.
For the time being, Jiang Liu had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.
"If you truly wish to become an enemy of my Western Heaven Battle Palace, can you withstand the wrath of the Heavenly Supreme?"
"Haha, distant water can't quench a nearby fire, you'd better just surrender obediently!" Jiang Liu sneered and reached out to grab them.
The world is in flux, and one person can control everything!
Jiang Liu naturally possessed this unparalleled divine power, and was extremely proficient in it. However, it was not the million-level battle runes of the Old Man of Winter, but rather a fusion of the cultivation methods of the Human Immortal Martial Arts and the worlds of "Covering the Sky" and "Journey to the West," making it incomparably powerful.
Faced with Jiang Liu's palm strike, Ling Zhanzi was terrified, but his fighting spirit remained undiminished. The three people behind him were directly suppressed and unable to make a move.
"Draw your sword...draw your sword..." Ling Jianzi's hand, which was pressed against the three-foot-long green peak, trembled, as did his sword.
"Ah... I, Ling Zhanzi, will surrender without a fight!"
boom!
The moment his voice fell, endless light burst forth from behind Ling Zhanzi, and faintly, it seemed as if the sounds of a massive battle echoed between heaven and earth.
A giant shadow slowly formed behind Ling Zhanzi, and at the same time, an inexplicably powerful sense of oppression gradually gathered between heaven and earth.
The oppressive atmosphere countered the pressure released by Jiang Liu, and at this moment, Ling Zhanzi's deep voice echoed throughout the world.
"Show yourself... the ancient war emperor's avatar!"
Boom!
As Ling Zhanzi's deep voice echoed between heaven and earth, a surging spiritual power gathered behind him, and countless roars and howls seemed to rise in the distance. At the same time, a huge figure slowly took shape.
In just a few breaths, the enormous figure became completely clear and appeared in Jiang Liu's sight.
Killing these four people would be incredibly easy, but Jiang Liu's goal wasn't to kill them, but to comprehend the ancient War Emperor's Dharma Body.
Therefore, applying pressure to the critical point will suffice.
The figure behind Ling Zhanzi was a hundred feet tall. Behind the giant shadow's head, three orbs of light floated, constantly rotating, causing the entire space to distort.
The appearance of this supreme Dharma image startled Jiang Liu. The million-level battle runes of the Old Man of Winter aroused Jiang Liu's great interest, but that was in a battle of almost equal level, and he could not be distracted to comprehend them.
Killing the Old Man of Winter resulted in the complete annihilation of his soul and spirit, turning everything into nothingness, leaving him with nothing to gain.
Now, facing this Ling Zhanzi, Jiang Liu began to analyze and comprehend him without any hesitation.
The ancient war emperor's Dharma body ranks twenty-fourth on the list of ninety-nine supreme Dharma bodies.
Records in the library of the Luo Shen Clan state that, according to legend, in ancient times, there was a peak powerhouse known as the War Emperor. He created a unique War Spirit Power that fused battle intent with spiritual power, resulting in astonishing combat strength. With this power, even in the ancient era when powerful figures were numerous, the strength of this ancient War Emperor was among the top tier in the Great Thousand World, and he was hailed as one of the Nine Ancient Emperors.
Later, the ancient War Emperor perished, and his legacy was lost. However, it was accidentally obtained by the current Western War Emperor. He grew rapidly with the help of the legacy and eventually reached the realm of Heavenly Sovereign.
This ancient war emperor's avatar was left behind by that ancient war emperor, but its cultivation conditions are quite harsh. Among the four holy sons of the Western Heaven War Palace, only Ling Zhanzi successfully cultivated it.
Its power can only be described as terrifying; it can fight opponents of higher levels.
As for the Luoshen Clan's Luoshen Dharma Body, it ranks even higher, at eleventh place. However, since Luoshen, no one has learned it, which has led to the Luoshen Clan becoming weaker with each generation.
"The War Emperor's Dharma Body, ranked twenty-fourth, possesses such power... It's a pity that the Luo Shen Dharma Body is a Dharma Body cultivated by a woman!"
Jiang Liu had achieved mastery of the innate Dao body and was proficient in the supreme secret techniques of several worlds. His comprehension and knowledge far surpassed those of ordinary celestial immortals. He immediately understood the secrets of this ancient war emperor's avatar, but he still needed to ponder the details slowly.
Faced with an enemy that was almost invincible, Ling Zhanzi had no choice but to fight desperately. He took a deep breath, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes, and then stomped his foot heavily, his hand seals changing rapidly.
As his hand seals changed, the three enormous orbs of light floating behind the War Emperor's Dharma Image suddenly burst forth with dazzling light. In the dim light, Jiang Liu seemed to see countless figures filled with fighting spirit within those orbs.
Jiang Liu's pupils suddenly contracted.
Hidden within that sphere of light were elite armies with astonishing fighting spirit!
"Is this the secret of battle spirit power? To concentrate the fighting spirit of an elite army to attack is indeed far more powerful than the path to godhood through incense offerings..."
Buzz!
Just as Jiang Liu was lost in thought, analyzing the mysteries of the Dharma Body, the War Emperor's Dharma Body suddenly burst forth with billions of rays of light. These rays of light condensed directly in the sky, and among the countless streams of light were countless spears that looked like real battle spears. These spears were engraved with battle patterns and exuded a boundless battle intent.
Jiang Liu's eyes gleamed as he grasped a trace of the battle formation, and he became even more delighted.
Letting Ling Zhanzi do as he pleased, Jiang Liu slowly pondered and gradually grasped the meaning. Then, with a single palm strike, he seized Ling Zhanzi and threw him into his inner world, preparing to thoroughly interrogate him.
But the instant Jiang Liu threw the spirit warrior into his inner world, he immediately felt a gaze from the heavens above fall upon him.
Caught off guard, Jiang Liu was taken aback, and then frowned.
Chapter 435: The Evil Outside the Universe
"The world's will has sensed me! Sure enough, causing trouble always leads to disaster!"
Jiang Liu fled, escaping for tens of thousands of miles, but he found that the pair of eyes above his head showed no sign of disappearing, but instead became even more concentrated.
The sky was clear and empty, not even a single cloud could be seen. But Jiang Liu keenly sensed something different. In that place beyond the reach of the vast universe, an inviolable will shot down.
With Jiang Liu's current cultivation level, he naturally could not perceive that mysterious and vast will, but the "one that has escaped" within his body clearly manifested this will as if it were a tangible thing.
It was as if a towering mountain was pressing down, the waters of the nine provinces were pouring down, and an abyss of no end suddenly appeared.
"How exactly did you find out? What else can you do besides just stare at me like that?"
This feeling is truly terrifying. You have eyes watching you all the time. What else could it be besides surveillance?
Jiang Liu was unaware, and "the one who escaped" offered no warning.
But it's making me increasingly uneasy.
"Judging from Elder Winter's strength, I can handle a Great Perfection Earthly Sovereign, though I'll suffer some minor injuries. But if it were a Heavenly Sovereign... I wouldn't be able to handle it so easily. Those Celestial or Saintly Heavenly Sovereigns are beyond my current ability to defeat. If the Western Heavenly War Emperor were to make a move, I would have no chance of winning. However, it would be a real pity to leave like this. I want to see how the World Will will act!"
Jiang Liu once again rode the clouds away, and after a brief search, he discovered a large city. Before he could even enter, two streaks of light flashed towards him, and a few breaths later, they transformed into two figures, standing in the void in front of him.
