The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 832 First Meeting with Luo Tianxian

Her body emanated astonishing Dao fluctuations, exuding an aura that transcended the long river of time, unbound by the causal forces of time and fate, and transcended everything. It was quite obvious that she was a peerless Immortal Emperor at the end of the road.

At this moment, however, her face turned slightly pale, not a translucent white, but a deathly pallor as if she had not recovered from a serious illness.

Her brows were furrowed, and her expression was serious, as if she had encountered some kind of predicament.

And that is indeed the case!

Previously, in order to save the Desolate Emperor, she joined forces with Meng Hai to cover their retreat, burning her physical body, primordial spirit, and the origin of the Great Dao, and exerting all her strength to briefly hold off one Dao Ancestor and ten strange Dark Immortal Emperors.

Fortunately, the Desolate Emperor broke through to a higher realm in time and arrived at the battlefield to save them; otherwise, they would have died in battle very soon.

Even so, they were exhausted, on the verge of death, and barely alive.

Of course, for an Immortal Emperor, let alone being on the verge of death or half-dead, even if he has died in battle, as long as there is still a trace of him, he will be resurrected one day. If he has made arrangements for resurrection in advance, and these arrangements are not discovered or destroyed, then resurrection will be even easier and faster.

Although their injuries were severe and would take a long time to fully recover, after taking the pre-refined imperial pills and undergoing thousands of years of recuperation, their condition had stabilized, their injuries no longer worsened, and they had even recovered considerably.

However, in order to recover from her injuries and regain her peak condition as quickly as possible to prepare for any possible future changes, she has been in seclusion deep within Los Angeles.

Suddenly, she sensed an extremely unfamiliar, powerful, and vast Dao fluctuation appearing outside Luo City.

What kind of place is Los Angeles?
The most central area in the western part of the Yuancang Continent is located inside the Immortal Emperor's magic array. It is protected by endless Immortal Emperor's Great Dao array patterns, making it like the Immortal Emperor's domain, forming an independent space-time.

Even if it were the Desolate Heavenly Emperor before breaking through to the Sacrifice Dao Realm, it would be difficult for him to approach Luo City silently without her consent.

But now, a strange and terrifying fluctuation of the Great Dao suddenly flashed past outside Luo City. How could this not shock her? How could this not make her cautious?

In that fleeting fluctuation of the Great Dao, she did not sense any eerie, dark aura.

Otherwise, she couldn't help but wonder if some strange progenitor had descended. If so, she would not only be shocked and cautious, but would be on high alert and immediately summon her allies, including Meng Hai.

At this moment, Luo Tianxian stood in the depths of time and space, transcending the world, as if independent of the outside world, forming her own whole.

She remained expressionless as her vast and terrifying divine sense poured out, meticulously examining every inch of space and time near Luo City. She even mobilized the power of the Immortal Emperor's array to investigate with its help.

The more she investigated, the more solemn Luo Tianyi's expression became.

She hadn't noticed anything at all; it seemed that the surge of the Great Dao she had sensed earlier was just an illusion.

But how could someone who has cultivated to her level possibly experience hallucinations?
After searching carefully for a while, they still found nothing. Luo Tianxian was getting impatient and wanted to use magic to contact Meng Hai and the others.

However, before she could make up her mind to use magic to contact Meng Hai and the others, a figure appeared silently in front of her and into her senses.

"My name is Li Daoming, and my Daoist name is Wuji. I greet Fellow Daoist Luo!" Li Daoming, no longer aligned with any particular space-time, concealed himself and revealed his form, bowing respectfully to Luo Tianxian. "Wuji?" Sensing Li Daoming's sudden appearance, and that he was not far from her, and that she had not sensed him beforehand, Luo Tianxian's mysterious and deep pupils suddenly contracted.

His body instinctively tensed slightly, and his vast magical power and the power of the supreme Dao instantly condensed, as if he were about to launch a full-force attack at any moment.

However, after carefully observing Li Daoming for a while, Luo Tianxian regained her composure, and the hidden fluctuations of the Great Dao quickly subsided.

It wasn't that she saw anything in Li Daoming; she simply couldn't see through his true nature and only found him mysterious and unpredictable.

Moreover, her intuition told her that the person in front of her was extremely terrifying. Not to mention that she was currently severely injured and could not exert even half of her peak strength without fighting desperately, even if she were in her prime, she would definitely not be his match.

But she didn't sense any eerie, dark aura or malice from him, and that was enough.

As long as he is not from the dark and mysterious side, he could become their ally, or even a comrade-in-arms!
“That’s right, my Daoist name is Wuji!” Li Daoming replied calmly and affirmatively.

"Was that fleeting surge of Dao energy something you deliberately released to lure me out?" Luo Tianxian asked expressionlessly.

“Not bad!” Li Daoming nodded slightly, without denying it.

"Hmm!" Luo Tianxian nodded slightly, but didn't press for details, nor did she inquire about Li Daoming's background or why he had lured her out. Instead, she directly asked what she most wanted to know:

"Are you connected to the eerie dark race? Are you willing to join us in fighting against them?"

"How can you be so direct?" Li Daoming was surprised to hear Luo Tianxian's question. He had thought that Luo Tianxian would try to find out his background, whether openly or secretly!
Although he was surprised, Li Daoming did not show it or try to hide it. Instead, he said frankly, "I have nothing to do with the strange dark race. As for fighting against the strange dark race, I am naturally more than willing to do so."

In fact, if possible, he would be reluctant to wage war against the strange and dark race and fight them to the death.

Although the powerful members of the strange dark race are somewhat weaker in combat strength at the same level, their numbers are too great, with more than six hundred quasi-immortal emperors, ten dark immortal emperors, and ten strange progenitors.

What's even more ridiculous is that they have an ancestral land called the Mysterious Plateau, where the imprint of the Great Dao is entrusted. The powerful members of the Mysterious Dark Clan can be resurrected in a short time after dying in battle.

Faced with so many powerful individuals, especially those with resurrection abilities, he really wouldn't want to be their enemy if possible.

Whether or not to become enemies is not something he can decide whether he wants to or not.

Even if he doesn't want to be their enemy, they won't let him go.

Once the Desolate Emperor is defeated or killed in battle, he will no longer have the strength to cover up and protect the myriad worlds. Once the strange and dark races discover the myriad worlds, they will surely include them in the scope of their harvest and sacrifice.

He did not want his people, his subordinates, his relatives and friends to be harvested and sacrificed by the powerful members of the strange dark race. Therefore, he had no choice but to become their enemy, to strike first, and to defeat or even eliminate the strange dark race.

"Very well! In that case, on behalf of Heaven, I welcome you, fellow Daoist!" Upon hearing Li Daoming's reply, Luo Tianxian's beautiful face, which had been devoid of smiles, finally relaxed somewhat, becoming less cold, and a heartfelt joy welled up within her.
