Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 402 The Killing Intent of Heaven and Earth

Li Wushou was naturally familiar with this feeling of earth-shaking change.

At this moment, Li Wushou and the people from the Yanyang Mountains should have already entered a ruined sacred domain.

Standing in the void, Li Wushou surveyed the surroundings.

The sky was clear and the air was fresh, the earth was lush and verdant, and everything was no different from the normal world.

This was different from the divine realm and the remnants of the holy realm that Li Wushou had entered before, and Li Wushou did not notice any rules that were different from those of the normal world.

Could it have been moved to another place, and not some dilapidated sacred realm?

Li Wushou's mind was in turmoil. This region was extremely vast, and the group that had entered the Yanyang Mountains were scattered in all directions.

To Li Wushou's surprise, he spotted the girl in the black dress in the wasteland not far away, while the Qinglian Envoy and the Fire Worship Cult Leader, who were originally closer to her, were scattered a hundred miles away.

The girl in the black dress remained calm, and Li Wushou did not detect a trace of panic on her face.

They didn't even bother to collect the lotus seeds of fire floating in front of them. Instead, they, like Li Wushou, were taking in the world around them with great interest.

This left Li Wushou speechless. He flashed to the other party's side and whispered:

"Put away the Heavenly Flame Seed first, and follow behind me later."

Although he knew the other party might have some reliance, Li Wushou didn't want anything unexpected to happen since it concerned Wu Qinghe's Dao Fruit.

If he hadn't been afraid of causing any misunderstanding, he would have put the fire away himself long ago.

The girl in the black dress remained calm upon hearing Li Wushou's voice.

He didn't heed Li Wushou's advice to immediately put away the fire, but instead quietly turned to look at Li Wushou, a curious look in his eyes, and asked:
"You're the one secretly spying on the Zoroastrian sect at Golden Flame Mountain, aren't you? Who are you?"

Without waiting for Li Wushou's reply, a flash of white light suddenly appeared in his eyes, his expression abruptly turning to surprise. He then murmured to himself:

"A strange creature attaining enlightenment? No, this body is fake. What a brilliant disguise."

Hearing the words of the girl in the black dress, it was now Li Wushou's turn to be surprised. Under the cover of his primordial spirit and the Three Immortals Pavilion, even the Blood Buddha could not see his origins.

This Nascent Soul Realm True Monarch saw through the clues.
Because of the white light I saw just now?
Just as Li Wushou was about to answer, he saw the girl in the black dress suddenly move and disappear from the spot.

At this moment, the opponent's speed was extremely fast, but without any trace of human intervention; in a flash, the person was already several miles away.

Li Wushou frowned and glanced at the Heavenly Flame Seed left behind. He sensed something was wrong!
The girl in the black dress seemed to be in no hurry to collect the flame from beginning to end.

Could it be?

With a sudden thought, Li Wushou subconsciously took a few steps back.

In the next instant, the heavens and earth shook!

The sky suddenly turned blood red, and then the sun, moon, and stars appeared all at once, a chaotic constellation stretching across the sky.

At the same time, the earth cracked, the rocks shattered, a fierce wind swept through the mountains and fields, and the lush life on the land was extinguished.

The whole world seemed like the end of the world!
But Li Wushou did not sense the destruction of heaven and earth; instead, he felt a terrifying killing intent permeating the world.

When the heavens unleash their killing intent, the stars shift their positions; when the earth unleashes its killing intent, dragons and snakes rise from the land.

This place is indeed problematic; it's not some other place that has been moved.

The other party's unusualness lies not in the rules, but in the universe.

"Buzz."

The killing intent surrounding the Heavenly Flame Seed had materialized, forming chains that imprisoned it in mid-air.

The fluctuations of the flame collided with the killing intent, causing the void to vibrate and hum. The terrifying killing intent tore through the void, enough to shred the physical body of a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

No wonder the girl in the black dress had never taken the Heavenly Flame Seed; she must have sensed something amiss with the world.
With a swift movement, Li Wushou intended to chase directly to the side of the girl in the black dress.

The other party was standing on a huge rock that had cracked open not far from the Heavenly Flame Seed.

But the instant Li Wushou harnessed his spiritual power, he felt an endless killing intent gathering from heaven and earth, just as it had been directed at the Heavenly Flame Seed earlier. The killing intent of heaven and earth seemed intent on imprisoning him in the void.

He subconsciously tried to forcefully break through the killing intent by fluctuating his boundary power, but the killing intent that enveloped his mind also increased simultaneously.

Just then, a voice transmission from the girl in the black dress suddenly sounded in his ear:
"Contain your spiritual power, do not struggle, and the killing intent will dissipate on its own!"

Li Wushou's mind stirred, and he withdrew his spiritual power, standing still.

The next moment, the terrifying killing intent dissipated. It seemed that the killing intent of heaven and earth was locking onto the boundary power and the power of the primordial spirit.

Calming his mind, Li Wushou descended into the void.

With his feet planted firmly on the ground, his physical strength erupted, and with a powerful stomp, the earth shattered. He leaped high into the air and landed not far from the girl in the black dress.

"Crack. Boom."

Cracking sounds filled the air, and the already cracked earth widened its fissures before collapsing.

The hungry ghost's dozen or so arms reached into the crack, firmly fixing its body in place.

As expected, physical strength alone was no longer enough for Li Wushou to sense the killing intent locking onto him.

Looking up at the girl in the black dress, Li Wushou solemnly asked via telepathy:
"You knew about the strangeness of this world all along? Is this Heavenly Flame Seed the Dao Seed that Qinghe needs?"

With the world undergoing a sudden change, and the Fengling Dao, which Li Wushou feared, still not showing up, Li Wushou no longer had time to play any more riddles with the girl in front of him who seemed to come from the Immortal Lotus lineage.

He needed to determine the Dao Seed that Wu Qinghe required as soon as possible!

The girl in the black dress was initially surprised by the commotion caused by Li Wushou's physical body, but after hearing Li Wushou's words, her usual composure vanished, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

Clearly, what Li Wushou revealed aroused a murderous intent in the girl in the black dress.

His eyes gleamed with white light as he scrutinized Li Wushou.

Upon seeing this, Li Wushou neither dodged nor avoided the gaze, but met it directly.

A moment later, the girl in the black dress's expression shifted, the killing intent in her eyes dissipated, and she asked with some surprise:
"Li Wushou?"

The moment she finished speaking, the girl in the black dress looked at Li Wushou again, as if trying to see right through him, and murmured as she looked at him:

"You've surprised me a bit."

When Li Wushou heard the girl in the black dress reveal his name, he was first taken aback, then he understood.

If the Azure Lotus lineage came knocking on my door to kill me, it's not surprising that the Immortal Lotus lineage knows about me.

He just didn't expect that the girl in the black dress would actually be able to see through his disguise and see his true face.

However, Li Wushou never intended to hide it; it would be better if he knew his identity.

Let's just be frank and talk it out:
"Since you know me, you should know that Qinghe and I are friends. Regarding the Dao Seed, it was Scholar Wu... cough... the Great Venerable Zhenhai who told me. This place is strange; if you need assistance..."

Before Li Wushou could finish speaking, the girl in the black dress suddenly nodded and replied:
"This Heavenly Flame Seed is not yet mature and needs to be refined together by the Heavenly Heart and the Earthly Core."

If you succeed in the training, you will be given a chance in the future; if you fail, that is your own fate.

Do you need any further assistance?
