The fact that Long Tianji had beco a Heavenly King had already shocked the world! For a War God to suddenly appear now… what did that even an?
"Long Tianji is definitely dood now!" The Grand Commander's face lit up with delight. She had complete confidence in the War God and didn't think Long Tianji stood a chance.
When Lin Tang's Divine Sense swept over this War God, his intangible spiritual consciousness was instantly scorched. The pain was so intense that his body faltered. At the sa ti, he sensed the aura of the Blissful Holy Master radiating from the man…
That's right! This person is the Blissful Holy Master himself!
The Holy Master of the Paradisiacal Realm usually stayed behind the bronze doors, making it inconvenient for him to erge. It seed sothing confined him. But the Blissful Holy Master had forcefully broken those constraints, appearing in the mortal world. All for the sake of revenge! All to vent his anger!
re insects… How dare you destroy my precious puppet incarnation? I want you dead!
BOOM!
With a single punch, the Blissful Holy Master shook the heavens and the earth. The ground, already turned to ash and forming a crater a kiloter in radius, sank even further under the aftershocks of his strike. The surrounding earth and rock collapsed, triggering landslides. Groundwater gushed out, forming a vast water mist that was instantly evaporated by the intense heat, turning into a plu of steam that soared into the sky. So powerful! Truly, unbelievably powerful!
Lin Tang's True Qi also surged as he gripped his flying sword and counterattacked. Though the sword was sharp, it was clamped tight by the opponent's overwhelmingly powerful energy, unable to even touch his fist. In the end, both the flying sword and Lin Tang were sent flying backward together.
PTUI—
Lin Tang spat out a mouthful of blood as it began to ooze from every pore on his body. Countless bones in his body shattered. He had nearly exploded!
How can a Martial Arts Battle God be this strong?
Lin Tang was shocked. Although he was severely injured, there was an unexpected benefit: the murderous, demonic thoughts that clung to him like a maggot on rotting flesh suddenly diminished, allowing his consciousness to clear and his reason to return.
Seeing his opponent pressing the advantage, rcilessly closing in with another punch, Lin Tang decisively shot toward the sky, planning to evade the brunt of the attack.
"You think I can't touch you just because cultivators can fly? Get down here!"
The Blissful Holy Master, with his long hair and cape fluttering in the wind, looked incredibly imposing. He roared at the sky, his voice booming like thunder from the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool. Above his head, the phantom of a giant nearly a hundred ters tall appeared—it was his martial spirit! It roared in unison, its voice ten tis louder than his own. A barrage of sonic booms interwove and spread through the air.
PTUI! PTUI! PTUI!
Like a startled bird, Lin Tang coughed up blood again and again as he plumted straight down!
…The power of a single roar is this terrifying! He managed to heavily injure Long Tianji with just his voice! The Grand Commander gasped, sucking in a cold breath. If the Blissful Holy Master's sonic attack hadn't been focused solely on Lin Tang, she, the Minor Commander, and Battle Elder would have been killed instantly by the roar. Even so, she couldn't help but spit up blood herself. The Minor Commander and Battle Elder nearly stopped breathing.
The Blissful Holy Master watched impassively as Lin Tang fell to a suitable distance, then launched another punch from afar. A wave of white light ford from his energy, creating a spectacle that strongly resembled the Kahaha from the ani series *Dragon Ball*. Its lethality was just as shocking, and it flew with the sole purpose of completely obliterating Lin Tang.
At the crucial mont, Lin Tang accelerated his fall, crashing toward the ground as if committing suicide. He barely dodged the wave of light, but his back was still horribly scorched black. For the first ti in his life, an enemy had beaten him so badly he couldn't even fight back. A War God… was truly terrifying!
"Escape!"
The instant he touched the ground, Lin Tang decisively used the Earth Tunneling Technique.
WHOOSH!
He vanished.
"HMPH!" The Blissful Holy Master looked irritated, like an ordinary person trying to step on a crawling insect, only to miss several tis. He found the situation ntally unacceptable.
I refuse to believe it…
He no longer held back his energy, throwing dozens, even hundreds of punches in a single breath. Wave after wave of light blasted the ground, creating a deep tunnel in hot pursuit of Lin Tang. As Lin Tang continued to burrow deeper, the waves of light chased relentlessly behind. He had to simultaneously use the Spring Breeze and Rain Spell to heal his injuries while continuously casting the Earth Tunneling Technique. The consumption of True Qi was simply enormous. Fortunately, the Star Core Spirit Embryo he had assimilated into his body was rich in spiritual energy, replenishing whatever he consud. Otherwise, he would have been in real danger.
Seeing him burrowing deeper and deeper, the Blissful Holy Master had no choice but to leap into the tunnel, continuing his assault while closing the distance. His own energy was also being consud at a massive rate. The two were locked in a grim contest.
Once they were gone, the Grand Commander pushed her battered body to its limits, grabbed the Minor Commander and Battle Elder, and fled in the opposite direction…
「Monts later. Deep underground.」
Magma churned. The Blissful Holy Master stood on a protruding rock above it, furiously smashing the surrounding stone walls. As for Lin Tang, he had fallen into the lava and was nowhere to be found.
Damn cultivator! In terms of pure strength, you're no match for ! But these endlessly varied spells are a real nuisance! he fud, feeling helpless. The way of martial arts… its destructive power is imnse, but its thods are too one-dinsional. It's nothing like Lin Tang, who can fly into the sky and burrow into the earth. Even when heavily injured, he can heal rapidly. Who the hell could I complain to about this?
With his bottomless well of spells, he might not even die from falling into magma. But I have to return to the holy land imdiately, or else…
Although he was deeply unwilling, after a mont's hesitation, the Blissful Holy Master had no choice but to leave. He hurriedly made his way back to the Blissful Holy Land. As for the Grand Commander and her companions, he had no interest. Nor did he wish to offend the Mysterious Lady of the Yaochi Heavenly Palace. Thus, he simply ignored them.
After an arduous journey, the Grand Commander managed to bring the Minor Commander and Battle Elder back to the Yaochi Heavenly Palace.
"Please, Your Majesty, save them! Their injuries are too severe!" she pleaded, kneeling before the statue of the Mysterious Lady, praying incessantly.
After a long while, the statue's eyes slowly opened. It gazed upon the prone forms of the Minor Commander and Battle Elder. Don't be mistaken by the fact that the Mysterious Lady had been defeated by Lin Tang twice—that was only because those battles were fought in the mortal world. Here in the Yaochi Heavenly Palace, her divine might was sothing that not even the Blissful Holy Master could hope to match.
She rely opened her mouth and blew a single breath. The Minor Commander and Battle Elder imdiately scrambled to their feet, brimming with life and overflowing with vitality. Where was there even a hint of an injury?
"I… Am I back?"
"My old bones are finally safe!"
Having survived the ordeal, they both bowed low in gratitude to the Mysterious Lady. The Grand Commander also took the opportunity to report that Long Tianji had been hunted down by a War God and was surely dead.
"What? He's dead?" the Minor Commander was stunned. After a long mont, she began to laugh and cry at the sa ti. "Good riddance, good riddance! That scum, that beast, he was worse than a pig or a dog…"
Only then did the Grand Commander learn that the Minor Commander's innocence had been stolen by Long Tianji. She grew so furious her chest heaved violently. Although the Mysterious Lady could restore her physically, making the Minor Commander a virgin once more, it would be nothing more than deluding themselves.
The Mysterious Lady, however, was not concerned with such "trivial matters." With Long Tianji dead, she lacked a suitable body to descend into, which she found sowhat regrettable.
But then the Grand Commander suddenly spoke up. "Reporting to Your Majesty, this disciple encountered a woman nad Ning Yuexi during my trip to the mortal world. If I am not mistaken, she should possess the Luli Pure Body..."
Upon hearing this, a smile slowly ford on the Mysterious Lady's face. Her voice was as slow as ever. "Bring… her… back…"
"Yes!" the Grand Commander replied upon receiving her orders. "However, she is very weak. Her martial skill is poor, and she has never practiced any Demon Technique. If she were to be used as your vessel, I fear she would not be able to withstand it."
"It matters not," the Mysterious Lady replied. "I have my ways."
After speaking, she gifted the Grand Commander a carpet and infused it with enough True Qi to make it float. Yes, it was another Flying Artifact, just like the carriage made from the great Jianmu tree. The thought that the carriage had been stolen by Long Tianji made a flash of resentnt cross the Grand Commander's face once again. She respectfully accepted the carpet and sat upon it.
WHOOSH!
The carpet soared into the sky, heading toward the mortal world. In terms of both prestige and comfort, the carpet was no match for the carriage. Its speed was also significantly slower, but it was still far faster than walking.
「A few hours later. At the Heavenly Person Academy.」
The Grand Commander, having recomposed herself and regained her dignified bearing, hovered in the air above and called out in a resonant voice, "The Grand Commander of the Yaochi Heavenly Palace requests an audience with the Grand Master of the Heavenly Person Academy!"
Within the academy, the atmosphere was tense, and everyone was on edge, fearing that Long Tianji might suddenly appear seeking revenge. The voice made them all jump in shock.
"Is that Long Tianji?"
"Yuexi, quickly, go stop him!"
"Wait, that's not right. The voice sounds like a woman's…"
"It's soone from the Yaochi Heavenly Palace!"
The initial panic of the crowd gave way to awe. Ji Yongyan imdiately led the senior mbers out to greet the visitor. Seeing the Grand Commander floating in the sky left them even more astounded.
As expected of the legendary cradle of civilization! The Yaochi Heavenly Palace's power is truly profound!
Their academy possessed no such flying treasure. Ji Yongyan and the others bowed in greeting. The Grand Commander gave a faint nod in return, only then guiding the carpet to the ground. She walked straight to Ning Yuexi and took her hand warmly. "Yuexi, the Mysterious Lady of our Heavenly Palace wishes to et you."
"The Mysterious Lady?"
"My heavens…"
"Is it… is it really her? She's still alive?!"
Ji Yongyan and the others were dumbfounded. The Mysterious Lady! She was a mythological figure from thousands of years ago. Under normal circumstances, how could she possibly still exist? Could it be that gods and immortals were truly eternal? Seeing that the Mysterious Lady wanted to et Ning Yuexi, countless people were overco with envy, completely unaware that she intended to take Ning Yuexi as a vessel.
Ning Yuexi herself was stunned and incredibly flattered. Just as they were about to leave, Ji Yongyan quickly pleaded, "Grand Commander, please wait a mont!"
He explained that Long Tianji could attack the Heavenly Person Academy at any ti, hoping that the profoundly powerful Yaochi Heavenly Palace could save them.
The Grand Commander let out a light laugh. "Grand Master Ji, you need not worry. Long Tianji was hunted down and killed by a mysterious War God. He won't be causing any more trouble in the mortal world, and he certainly won't be coming to harm you."
"A mysterious… War God? Are you certain it was a War God?" Ji Yongyan and the others were once again thunderstruck.
Ning Yuexi stood dazed, her mind buzzing. "Long Tianji… he's dead?" For a mont, she felt an unexpected pang of sadness.
Why am I sad? I should be happy, shouldn't I? Hahaha, I must be going insane!
Ning Yuexi blinked rapidly to keep tears from falling. She forced a radiant smile and laughed. "It's wonderful that the scourge is finally dead!"
Ji Yongyan and the others all agreed, clapping and cheering.
"Is that so? So you really hated that much…"
A voice suddenly echoed through the crowd. Everyone froze, a chill running down their spines.
Ning Yuexi was rendered speechless. She whirled around. The person who t her gaze was none other than Long Tianji.
The Grand Commander's eyes widened in disbelief. What kind of joke is this?! He was being hunted by a War God, how could he not be dead?!
