The Great Road of Shading the Sky

Chapter 294 Ultimate Showdown, Yao Yao Gets into Big Trouble!

"Looks like that little guy who's good at saving his life has some rivals after all?"

Seeing this, Shaohua smiled and simply sat down on the ground, picking up her sweet and soft little mother and placing her on her lap, mainly to watch the show.

The Western Emperor skillfully snuggled against her, shifting to a more comfortable position.

If others saw the two of them frolicking around in the all-consuming immortal fire, they would probably be astonished, but now no one is paying attention to this place.

"Ow!"

A dragon's roar resounded, shaking the heavens and intimidating the netherworld. A blood-red dragon hovered in the air, its head raised and roaring, its massive size filling the heavens and earth.

In an instant, the dragon's might blazed fiercely, covering the sky and the earth, like a super ferocious beast unleashed from its cage!

This crimson dragon stretched for countless billions of miles from beginning to end, its size barely enough to support the entire far north.

"Roar!"

With another roar, a massive black dragon of the same size appeared out of nowhere, as if it had been resurrected from the deepest abyss. Its aura was icy cold and chilling, stirring up a storm of darkness and death.

Then, a dragon's roar resounded again, shaking the past, present, and future. Time itself was shattered and danced wildly in the chaotic universe, as if the past and present were about to be turned upside down.

It was a golden dragon, domineering and boundless, exuding the might of an emperor, reigning supreme over the world!
Three great dragons emerged, heads held high, walking side by side, appearing at this moment in the far north!

"It's him. It really is that person!"

The second disciple of the Martial Madman's voice trembled, his soul was shaking, his eyes were fixed on the three majestic dragons that covered the sky, his legs were trembling, and he almost fell over.

He recognized everything; he knew who was returning!

His master's former nemesis, the Black Hand Li Sanlong, has returned!

The three dragons are embroidered on a huge, boundless, and nearly rotten flag that looks like a plane has collapsed. Even the tattered parts are like black holes.

That is the legendary Three Dragons Battle Flag.

The second disciple of the Martial Arts Maniac felt his scalp was about to explode. Could it really be that Li has returned?
He would never forget that his master, the Martial Emperor, who was once invincible and full of vigor, returned one day with a bloodied head and in a very sorry state.

It is said that this was the only defeat in Empress Wu's life, when she was ambushed and attacked by Li, resulting in her being injured and bleeding profusely from her forehead.

"Li?!"

"It's me, I'm back!" A majestic voice came from the high heavens.

The second disciple of the Martial Madman felt a lump in his throat and asked tremblingly, "Was it you who shattered the far north and destroyed my master's dojo before?"

"That's right, I did it too." The voice from high above answered without hesitation.

"."

Shao Hua, who was watching the show, raised an eyebrow. This young man was quite interesting; he liked to take the blame for himself.

But for some reason, she felt a sense of familiarity wash over her.

"These kinds of people are usually very ruthless," the Western Emperor said incisively.

“I also met a little guy with a similar personality in the human world. They should have a lot in common.” Shao Hua smiled. She was actually thinking of a certain Heavenly Emperor surnamed Ye.

She stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, instantly causing flames to erupt all around.

Fourteen-colored immortal flames burned the sky, startling the three dragon battle flags, which shrank rapidly and then fell continuously. Eventually, a gaunt figure appeared, leaning on the battle flag, with a head full of gray hair, a slightly hunched body, swaying precariously, standing on the ground in surprise and uncertainty.

The second disciple of the madman was equally surprised and uncertain. Anyone could see that Li's condition was very wrong. He looked like he was about to die at any moment. Where was his former domineering demeanor?

Could this body, with its life force depleted and on the verge of decay, possibly harm its own master?

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was trying to scam someone!
At this moment, many reclusive old monsters from the outside world were also alarmed. Some people saw the three dragon battle flags and thought of Li's unparalleled power in the past, and their minds were all in turmoil.

Some speculate that his arduous and defying-fate return may be for the purpose of a major purge.

"Is he truly finished, and is he still capable of one last battle?"

"Perhaps there will be an immeasurable calamity, and the mortal realm will likely be thrown into chaos!"

"The martial arts fanatic is probably not dead. The most intense battle in recent history is about to break out!"

Many people believe that Li's appearance confirms that he was the one who chased the madman before, but some people still have doubts and believe that the murderer is someone else.

"No, how could you kill my master like this? What happened that day was definitely not your doing!" The second disciple of the Martial Madman mustered his courage and shouted sharply.

"So what? Where's the madman? Is he truly dead or not? If not, come out and fight me!" Li roared, his gaze sweeping across every inch of the void. "Li, you're already dead, so don't come out and cause trouble again!"

At that moment, a sound like the booming of a golden bell swept across the world. In several unknown dark lands, creatures opened their terrifying eyes and made a powerful move.

Several beams of light, like the primordial light of the creation of the world, illuminated the past and present, becoming eternal between heaven and earth, and almost simultaneously struck the far north.

Li Da waved his battle flag, and three large dragons appeared in the sky, blocking several blinding beams of light.

It was at this moment that, outside the chaos, a pair of blood-red pupils suddenly opened, then transformed into a blazing gold. It was the Martial Maniac, reviving from a state of dormancy and recuperation.

"I have mastered the Seven Deaths Body to its ultimate level. Regardless of whether you were the one who caused this that day, Li, you will die today!" the Martial Madman roared.

The Seven Deaths Body is a unique skill he created. It requires experiencing seven death realms to unleash the ultimate mystery, dying seven times and being resurrected seven times, until finally becoming an invincible true self, with no one in the world able to match him!
As the originator, the Martial Madman has thoroughly studied it, not only achieving resurrection from the dead in one field, but also constantly transforming in seven major levels, possessing forty-nine dead bodies.

He even reached the pinnacle, achieving the ninth realm of transformation, which meant he had a total of sixty-three dead bodies. This is why he survived the follow-up attack left by Shao Hua.

With a thunderous roar, an arm that covered the sky suddenly emerged from the void and pressed down on Li Dagai. The Martial Emperor and Martial Madman in the eyes of the world had made his move. Blood energy filled the sky and engulfed the northern land. The strange phenomenon was extremely astonishing and shocked the mortal world.

"Heh, Mad Dog, how come you've learned to use sneak attacks too?" Li Da sneered.

He suddenly looked up at the sky, one arm trembled slightly, and the banner in his hand fluttered. As the banner unfurled, endless order intertwined, as if it were about to change the world and reshape the heavens and earth.

"Boom!"

Celestial light soared into the sky, and the Dao Ancestor's matter boiled, instantly tearing apart the mortal realm and piercing through the thirty-three heavens.

The world fell silent. All the evolved beings were stunned, frozen in place, their pupils wide open, staring at the earth-shattering showdown that was unfolding!

In a daze, people seemed to see that the Great Underworld Cycle had truly appeared, reflected by the energy of the duel between the two, and that all races of beings could observe the blurry ancient path.

At the same time, the heavens seemed to be faintly reflected in the sky.

This was terrifying, beyond the imagination of the world. It caused the pride of all races to lose their arrogance, feeling that they would never be able to look up to the end of such a battle in their lifetime, the gap was just too great.

This is a distance that time cannot bridge. Even if they never aged and continued to cultivate, they would never evolve to this level, leaving them bewildered, frustrated, and filled with despair.

The myriad paths roared, rules burned, order crumbled, and the vast world seemed to have become part of the furnace of heaven and earth. Even after the light faded and subsided, many powerful figures were still unable to recover for a long time.

It was astonishing and unbelievable. Such a terrifying clash, with the power to swallow mountains and rivers, could easily dry up the vast ocean, without any problem at all. Yet now the earth remained calm and undisturbed, with nothing damaged and not even a single blade of grass withered.

In the far north, the giant hand retreated, and the great banner came to a standstill.

However, the next moment, something even more terrifying happened. The Martial Madman appeared in person, and Li Da also soared into the sky. The Great Dao roared and trembled as the two of them charged towards the outer realm together!

At this moment, near the northern lands, a dog and a rotting corpse ran over. They were amazed to see the battle break out. They had only been in the mortal realm for a short time and were now witnessing a battle between immortal kings. It was truly exciting.

"What's that saying again? Let me think... Fellow Daoists, please show mercy. Peace is the most important thing!" A big black dog howled to the sky.

"Stupid dog, these two are obviously mortal enemies. We can just stand by and witness it. Seeing such a life-or-death duel makes our long journey worthwhile. Go for it! I'll find a good burial place for you later!"

The rotting corpse spoke gleefully, as if it couldn't wait for the two of them to perish together.

Their words resonated across the sky, clearly perceived by many. In an instant, the world fell silent, and people stared in disbelief.

Even the martial arts fanatic and Li Da, who had just rushed out of the domain, paused in their steps. An ordinary person would have stumbled and fallen down.

"Haha, this is so interesting! The art style has suddenly changed!"

Not far away, a beautiful and ethereal young girl clapped her hands and smiled brightly.

"Um?!"

The black dog and the rotting corpse noticed the girl's presence and sensed the strangely familiar bloodline aura within her. They exchanged a glance, and immediately stopped bending over and their eyesight cleared. They could run ten thousand miles in one breath and rushed to the girl's side.

The black dog, in particular, pounced on the girl, almost opening its bloody maw to bite her.

"What the hell are you doing, you damn dog?" The rotting corpse grabbed a shovel and swatted him away.

"I couldn't help it, I couldn't help it," the black dog said, getting up and smirking.

The girl was also startled, not expecting to be discovered by Shui Lingling so easily.

However, she sensed that these two strange-looking guys meant her no harm, so she quickly regained her composure and greeted them with a smile, showing no shyness whatsoever.

"My name is Yao Yao. What do you need me for?"

"Of course something's wrong. I'm telling you, little girl, you're in big trouble!"

(The mortal realm is much larger than the original text, so I upgraded the Martial Maniac and Li Sanlong a bit, no big deal!)
(Didn't expect there to be two updates, did you? Actually, I didn't expect to finish writing it either. I just got into the mood and decided to post it all at once. However, I might not be able to update tomorrow. I have to leave early in the morning to attend the funeral of that elder. Please be aware.)
