Ming Dynasty: pacifying the rebellion and defending the border, dominating the world

Chapter 398 Desperate Situation, Breaking Through the Realm

Zuichunlou.

Not to mention the external disturbances.

Not to mention, Wang Xianzhi, Li Chungang and others, just by emitting their aura, attracted the generals of Tian Ce and Cang Yun who had returned, who were eager to see them rebel and wanted to give them a chance to stretch their muscles and bones.

At this moment, inside the Drunken Spring Pavilion.

Li Chungang gazed at Li Wuyi, his eyes blazing with brilliant sword intent. "Transcending the celestial realm, can this be called the Dao?"

That dormant heart beat so violently for the first time in sixty years.

I have a bright pearl, but it has long been locked away by worldly troubles.

Now the dust has settled and light shines forth, illuminating countless green mountains.

Li Wuyi turned to look at Li Chungang and nodded with a smile:
"Transcending the realms of gods and men, forming its own world."

"If one insists that it is the Way, it is not necessarily wrong."

One of the most obvious signs of transcending the realm of gods and men is the ability to transform one's own state of mind into a space that resembles a domain. The stronger one's understanding of the state of mind, the stronger the domain becomes.

When dealing with beings below the level of Celestial Being on Earth, they are like gods, utterly unstoppable.

Huang Longshi is known as the number one demon of the Li Yang Spring and Autumn Period. His cultivation as a terrestrial immortal is unfathomable.
Li Wuyi easily suppressed him.

"Please enlighten me!" Li Chungang's sword intent erupted, spreading throughout the entire Drunken Spring Pavilion and the surrounding capital city, causing ten thousand swords to tremble and resonate. The sky was filled with countless strange phenomena and sword shadows, as if celebrating the return of the strongest sword immortal of Liyang in the past.

Wang Xianzhi remained silent, but the process of her getting up was like a volcano that had been dormant for many years about to erupt.

He is a celestial being on land, and the power of heaven and earth accompanies every move he makes.

If they fight recklessly and without restraint, one person might even be able to destroy a city.

The weather and atmosphere of the world changed once again because of Wang Xianzhi.

High above, dark clouds began to descend, as if the sky were collapsing.

"You also wish to receive instruction?"

Li Wuyi's gaze toward Wang Xianzhi was mocking, and the latter silently nodded.

“You guys, you’re still…” Li Wuyi smiled, a smile without sarcasm, but with a disdain that made Wang Xianzhi and Li Chungang uncomfortable.

"Om~!"

There were no earth-shattering phenomena, no overwhelming aura of the vast universe.

Li Wuyi simply flipped his outstretched palm over and covered it, without even targeting Wang Xianzhi and Li Chungang, and a domain as vast as heaven and earth crashed down.

At that moment, Wang Xianzhi and Li Chungang seemed to have encountered the most terrifying thing in their lives.

One man, with veins bulging and arms outstretched as if supporting the heavens, fiercely attacked the vast sky with swirling primordial energy. Another man, attempting to open the gates of heaven with his sword, found his hand trembling uncontrollably, as if imprisoned by heaven and earth, unable to extend his sword even half an inch further.

"Ok?"

"What happened to them?"

Xu Fengnian scratched his head frantically, looking around, completely baffled as to what was wrong with Wang Xianzhi and Li Chungang, and why they were acting as if they had encountered an unprecedentedly terrifying emperor.

One suddenly attacked the empty sky.

One tried to draw his sword, but only managed to pull it out half an inch before freezing in place.

Wang Xianzhi and Li Chungang, who were caught in the middle of it all, were like two mayflies in the world, suddenly witnessing the terrifying collapse of heaven and earth and the shattering of stars.

They refused to accept their fate; they wanted to fight back, to resist. Even if it meant shedding blood, they would fight their way out.

They had completely forgotten everything except the oppressive heaven and earth that loomed over them.

Opponent, time, martial arts, swordsmanship—none of it mattered; they forgot it all. In their eyes, there was only the invisible world that seemed to be pressing down from the vast heavens and earth.

Completely lost in the moment!

A proud figure stood high in the sky, looking down at everything inside the Drunken Spring Pavilion, and couldn't help but frown:
"A state of communion between humanity and nature, where one forgets both self and external things."

"A swordsmanship reaches a new peak, a state of no sword, no self."

"What is Li Wuyi doing?"

"He brought a group of secret guards out on a mission, right? How come he ended up helping these two potential enemies level up?"

The cultivation levels of Wang Xianzhi and Li Chungang were no secret to Song Senxue, the top expert of Tian Ce. He could even see through their terrifying understanding of life and death when they faced desperate situations.

However, this only made Song Senxue more confused.

Wang Xianzhi, needless to say, is the Martial Emperor, one of the Seven Gods of the Heaven's Scar, specially marked by the Secret Guard.

Li Chungang, the Li Yang Sword Immortal who suddenly brought Wang Xianzhi to the Ming Dynasty, is probably an enemy rather than a friend.

Based on his understanding of Li Wuyi's style of doing things, Li Wuyi should have suppressed these two people immediately, rather than giving them room to grow.

"Hahaha, Old Song, do you think it's possible that Wu Yi didn't do it on purpose, but rather... that their brilliant performance after being forced into a corner earned His Highness's approval?"

A loud laugh rang out, and Song Senxue knew without turning around that it was the red-robed Buddha, Wang Bukong.

Song Senxue responded coldly: "Of course I know!"

Li Wuyi is the son of Li Chengen, the Grand Commander of Tian Ce. Since being selected into the Xuanjia Secret Guard, his style of doing things has become extremely cold and ruthless. He is by no means the kind of person who is soft-hearted.

Without His Highness's order, let alone the near-death enlightenment of a terrestrial celestial being and a peak terrestrial immortal sword immortal, even two terrestrial celestial beings, or even two immortals breaking through to the realm on the verge of death, Li Wuyi would not give them a moment to breathe.

It will inevitably be a swift and decisive crushing.

Shen Tu Yuan crossed his arms and chuckled mockingly, "That kid Li Wuyi has been corrupted by Feng Yebei and Yan Yimei! Look at his cautious and ruthless nature."

"Where is the dignified and upright appearance of his father, Li Chengen?"

Upon hearing this, the group looked closely and burst into laughter.

Isn't it?
It's one thing for Li Wuyi, a being above the Celestial Realm, to personally block the door of a Celestial Realm cultivator and two Celestial Immortals, accompanied by three equally powerful Celestial Realm-level Xuanjia Secret Guards.

The other three secret guards, who surpassed the celestial beings of the land, were all special secret guards who had mastered the battle formations taught by Zhu Jinzhen.

It goes without saying that Wang Xianzhi and Li Chungang had some enlightenment.

Even if the Confucian sage Zhang Fuyao and the banished immortal Li Changsheng from Beili came together, they would still gain some insights and strive for further progress. But facing the lineup brought by Li Wuyi, they would only face certain death.

Above the capital, several other figures seemed to have overheard the discussions among the Cangyun generals, and each of them twitched their lips into a faint smile.

"I have gained some insight, so I ascended to heaven to inquire about the Dao."

"Can this move be called the Way?"

Wang Xianzhi suddenly roared, which caused thunder to rumble in the heavens. The clouds in the sky grew even more turbulent, and the boundless clouds rolled in. With a palm strike, he displayed a majestic and awe-inspiring power, as if a mortal were fighting against the heavens.

Li Chungang's eyes widened in fury, his sword intent soaring. He had reached a state of selflessness, where he was no longer attached to his sword, and instinctively sensed that his sword was being restricted. Without hesitation, he opened his mouth and shouted:
"Sword... come!"

He wanted to borrow swords, to borrow all the swords in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, to fight against "Heaven"!
