All the injuries combined fell on Duan Yue, who was behind Li Dao.
Bang!
His body exploded with a bang, without even a moment to react. His body, which was originally capable of regenerating flesh and blood, showed no reaction whatsoever.
The Great Dao was obliterated, and the primordial spirit was shattered.
A peak-level expert of the Transcendent Realm has fallen, and in a way that is difficult for most people to comprehend.
"This is a crushing defeat at the level of the Great Dao. He is just a cultivator who has cut down my cultivation level, and he has already reached this level?" The archer's eyes were deep. As a half-step supreme being, he was all too familiar with this kind of aura.
The so-called supreme being is one who can suppress all others, crushing enemies with a mere wave of their hand, using a more fundamental method to obliterate them.
Looking at the boy sitting cross-legged in mid-air with a back as sharp as a blade, a look of bewilderment flashed in his eyes.
A brief silence fell over the entire room, with only the sounds of their rapid breathing and the collision of Shi Hao and Wu Feng's bodies echoing.
Li Dao slowly stood up, and his movement immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone wanted to see what this young man, who had single-handedly killed a leader of a foreign realm, was going to do.
His bleeding hand was slightly bent, holding the zither firmly to his side. His lips were pale, but his eyes were unusually resolute. He moved his lips slightly and uttered a few words: "Foreign techniques are nothing more than that."
He immediately shifted his gaze to Wu Feng.
That single glance seemed to contain immense power, and Wu Feng, who was fighting Shi Hao, felt his hair stand on end: "Huang, I will come back to take your head next time."
After saying this, Wu Feng and Shi Hao exchanged blows, with Wu Feng using the force to escape from the battlefield.
Shi Hao slowly withdrew his fist, looking at Wu Feng who had disappeared in the blink of an eye, and scratched his head in confusion.
"They really run fast."
Waaah...
Just then, a bugle call sounded from the enemy's position, signaling their withdrawal.
"Withdraw!" The old man who held the Qiankun bag gave Li Dao a deep look.
Many cultivators from the foreign lands felt extremely unwilling. This was originally a battle with no suspense, but now a commander had fallen here, and he had even perished at the hands of a cultivator who had killed them.
How could they possibly accept this?
The younger generation, in particular, felt a heavy weight in their hearts as if a mountain was pressing down on them, looking at Li Dao standing in mid-air with an air of superiority.
"It is feared that our realm will find it difficult to suppress this person's rise. Only by inviting the prodigy of the imperial clan can we possibly contend with him."
This statement lacks confidence; even the most outstanding talents of the imperial clans might not be able to defeat Li Dao.
The conch shell horn resounded across the battlefield, and the foreign army retreated like a tide, gradually disappearing into the horizon of the desert.
Only then did the many cultivators of the Nine Heavens finally burst into cheers, for this battle was a rare victory.
Although many unexpected events occurred during this period, and even the figure of the Immortal King appeared, they ultimately managed to repel the alien realm.
Many people's eyes fell on Li Dao, who was in mid-air, their gazes filled with fervor.
Shi Hao also showed a look of joy, but he also noticed Li Dao's abnormality, so he frowned and came to Li Dao's side.
"What's wrong? You're not happy even though you won the battle?" Shi Hao patted Li Dao's shoulder, but quickly noticed something was wrong.
Li Dao's sleeves hanging at his sides were empty, and his face was frighteningly pale.
"you……"
Shi Hao's heart sank, and he was about to say something when Li Dao stopped him.
"It's just a minor side effect, nothing to worry about."
Li Dao's smile was somewhat forced. He took out the Blood Pill and swallowed it, and his complexion improved considerably.
In order to kill Duan Yue in a short time, he forcibly used the Great Dao of Reincarnation.
Although he gained a profound understanding of the Dao of Reincarnation by comprehending that wisp of the Dao of Reincarnation, this was the first time he had fully unleashed it, and he almost transformed into the Dao of Reincarnation.
If it weren't for his strong physique and the aid of the Celestial Venerable's Dharma Image, using the Reincarnation Finger as a guide, he would have paid a price far more than just an arm.
Shi Hao was worried, but it was not appropriate to say anything more in the current situation.
As the two were talking, Sui An also arrived. He quickly learned about Li Dao's general situation and with a flick of his sleeve, he took Li Dao and disappeared from the battlefield.
After the initial cheers, the crowd on the battlefield quickly fell silent, looking around at the utterly tragic scene.
Even though they repelled the alien forces, Jiutian still suffered heavy losses.
Corpses littered the fields, and the scene was one of utter devastation.
The crowd silently began to deal with the battlefield, carrying one corpse after another into coffins, or carrying the bloodied bodies on their backs.
Most of the corpses were mangled; they were either unknown soldiers or famous warriors, but now they all shared the same fate.
Looking back at the coffins and the incomplete corpses, some people couldn't help but sigh, tears streaming down their faces.
"All of this is for training the troops. If Tianyuan disappears one day, they won't be completely powerless to resist." A commander muttered to himself, as if trying to convince himself. But looking at the tragic scene, how could he really bear to let them die in vain in the borderlands?
The battlefield was silent except for the rustling of corpses being moved and the low sobs of cultivators.
Meanwhile, Li Dao returned to the Imperial Pass.
He was taken by Sui An to a large star, a vibrant ancient star, where a well was located, spewing forth celestial mist. Just smelling it made his injuries heal faster.
"This is the Fallen Immortal Well. A true immortal was once nailed to this great star, his flesh and blood merging with the star, leaving behind this ancient well. Rest and recuperate here," Sui An instructed before leaving.
Li Dao stepped onto this ancient star of life. The cries of monkeys echoed through the mountains and forests. He came to the ancient well, where clear spring water gushed forth.
"Such a rich essence of life."
Li Dao took a deep breath, a blush spreading across his face, and sat cross-legged beside the ancient well, beginning to draw the spring water to cleanse his body.
hum!
His body trembled slightly, and the spring water caressed him like a gentle hand. His wounds healed rapidly, and dead skin fell off in a soft rustling.
A sacred light also emanated from the arm that had been transformed by the Dao, and the power of law that enveloped the severed arm was slowly dissolving, allowing the limb to regenerate.
Time seemed to slow down. Li Dao, his body radiating an uncertain light, sat cross-legged beside the ancient well. As the spring water continuously cleansed his body, his aura gradually increased.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Dao slowly opened his eyes, the divine light within them seemingly capable of piercing through all things.
His aura reached its peak, and he was enveloped in a strange field. His severed arm grew back, and his aura reached the limit of the "Severing Myself" realm. He was only one step away from entering the "Escape One" realm.
“Battle is indeed the best nourishment for cultivation.” Li Dao shook his head, got up and left the ancient well.
His injuries have healed, and there's no point in him staying here any longer. It would be better to give up the place and let other injured cultivators have it.
He left the ancient star and headed straight for his own training ground.
The temple grounds remain as beautiful as ever, only less crowded.
As soon as his presence was felt, Tie Kui and Mu Wanqing came out to greet him.
"My lord, you're back!" Mu Wanqing said excitedly, having worried them for a long time upon hearing that Li Dao was injured.
"Yes, everything is fine," Li Dao nodded slightly.
Upon returning to his cave, he inquired about the two men's recent situation.
"We are both in seclusion within the dojo and are not very aware of what is happening outside. However, the Witch came to visit us during the Lord's seclusion," Mu Wanqing said somewhat embarrassedly.
Li Dao nodded. The borderlands are not like the Boundless Heaven. Without eyes and ears here, it is very difficult to find out what is happening in the outside world.
Chapter 482 Reunion with Li Baiyi, A Reincarnation!
However, the thought of the witch's arrival softened his heart.
Just as he was about to go find the witch, a gentle Taoist voice rang out from outside the dojo: "Has that piece of wood returned?"
Li Dao's ears twitched slightly, and in a flash, he appeared at the entrance of the dojo.
With a glance, he saw a witch dressed in a moon-white robe, her black hair cascading down her back like a waterfall.
She emanated a serene white light, like a fairy descended from the heavens. Every smile and frown was captivating. However, her brows were slightly furrowed, clearly worried about Li Dao.
The void rippled, and Li Dao said softly:
"I am back."
Upon hearing this, the witch looked up abruptly. Their eyes met, and the worry in the witch's eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a hint of resentment.
"You naughty blockhead, you scared me to death!" the witch said, her throat dry.
"I'm sorry," Li Daoxiang said in a low voice as he pulled her into his arms.
The two leaned against each other, while Mu Wanqing, watching from a distance, flashed a hint of envy in her eyes.
The two returned to the temple and sat side by side on the mountaintop, talking for a long time.
Li Dao's tense nerves relaxed considerably.
However, just as Li Dao and the witch were embracing each other, an unprecedented tribulation was brewing on another vast lake.
Rumble!
The terrifying roar echoed across the surrounding area, attracting many cultivators to the scene.
"That's Huang! He's undergoing tribulation!"
"The power of this tribulation lightning is terrifying, as if it will destroy the heavens and the Dao, making people feel uneasy."
Inside the temple, Li Dao and the witch walked out of their cave and looked at the heavenly tribulation brewing in the sky.
The witch, her face still flushed, looked at Li Dao with tender affection and asked, "What happened?"
“Someone is undergoing a tribulation of lightning.” Li Dao’s gaze pierced through layers of heaven and earth, and he saw Shi Hao standing under the heavenly tribulation.
"Is that Shi Hao? This heavenly tribulation is terrifying; I've never heard of it before," the witch said with curiosity in her eyes.
“It’s him. If nothing unexpected happens, this is the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Tribulation.” Li Dao was all too familiar with this aura.
The witch nodded slightly, said nothing more, and nestled beside Li Dao as she watched the heavenly tribulation descend.
The power of the heavenly tribulation was vast and boundless; its strike seemed poised to shatter the entire lake.
However, Shi Hao displayed unprecedented resilience, asking questions amidst the heavenly tribulation and constantly forging his own path.
They marched directly from the Three Thousand Provinces to the Ninth Heaven, their imposing presence drawing everyone's attention.
Only then did everyone realize that Shi Hao was also an extraordinary genius not to be underestimated, but his brilliance had been overshadowed by Li Dao. Now, his sudden burst of light brought many people back to their senses.
