"Look, who is that?"
After the Lei Fa bombardment in Gui Fo Jie, not a blade of grass remained.
Lingering life energy tried to revive amidst the desolation, but this seemed to be an automatic recovery of life. Yao Zu still hadn't shown up.
Instead, an uninvited guest appeared out of thin air.
"Zoom in!"
"Quick, zoom in!"
"Could it be Uncle Mu?"
Jin Xing's ability to capture images and figures was quite good.
Initially, not many people noticed this person's appearance. It was just after Kui Lei Han unleashed his Lei Fa and frowned, glancing in the direction of Gong Yang Shan in Qi Lin Jie.
The scene then shifted, and indeed, there was an extra person.
He was tall and upright, free and uninhibited, draped in a brocade robe. The fabric of his clothes was excellent, glistening even from afar, though the hem was slightly damaged, as if he had just escaped from a perilous place.
His chest was open, and the jade-white muscle lines on his exposed chest and abdomen were extremely prominent. Unlike Kui Lei Han's robust, bronzed physique, his was very well-proportioned, possessing a just-right muscular aesthetic.
As the camera moved upwards, one could see the man's slightly curly, disheveled long hair draped over his shoulders. His fair face carried a hint of effeminacy, which, combined with his narrow, foxy eyes, interpreted effeminate beauty to its extreme, making him exceedingly handsome and dashing.
No, with such a flawless face and a superb physique, you appear in Gui Fo Jie to await death?
Isn't that a waste? Come out quickly!
When they clearly saw the man's face, many female cultivators in the Five Domains momentarily lost their composure.
In fact, it wasn't just female cultivators; some male cultivators also felt a flutter in their hearts, though they didn't say it.
Soon, despite a vastly different temperament, someone recognized that highly distinctive face:
"He, he, he, isn't he Yue Gong Li?"
"What Li?"
"That one, the red-robed Dao Master!"
"Isn't there only one red-robed Master, only my Rao Xian Zi?"
As if responding to the crowd's calls, the extremely tall figure vanished in an instant.
The cultivators of the Five Domains felt an inexplicable pang in their chests, not because their beloved had disappeared, but due to a subtle sense of familiarity...
"Zu Shen?"
Kui Lei Han's pupils contracted, his expression somewhat startled.
What was he seeing? When did that playboy become one?
Outside Nan Li Jie, there were many cultivators.
When Kui Lei Han threw people out, many, along with Yu, Liu, and Yue, were thrown onto a barren mountain.
"Hoo!"
With a gust of wind, the air pressure above and below the barren mountain suddenly solidified.
The figure in the sky had just disappeared when Yue Gong Li appeared before the three women like a ghost, moving so fast that few saw what technique he used.
"A-Li..."
Yue Gong Nu took a step forward.
Even after decades of separation, the bond of blood was still strong.
Her eyes immediately filled with surprise and tenderness. Finally, her brow furrowed, adding a hint of reprimand and inquiry:
"Why are you here?"
How dare you come!
It's enough that I'm here. What are you doing here?
You scream in pain after just one whip, and run around holding your shoulder. Be careful, you might lose your life here!
But as she took that step, all subsequent questions caught in her throat. Yue Gong Nu clearly sensed something was wrong.
A-Li was still A-Li, yet he seemed a little different...
Was it because they hadn't met for so many years? How had he grown so much that even she couldn't discern his realm...
Moreover!
A-Li was acting so unfamiliar.
The first thing he looked at after landing wasn't her, but Yu Zhi Wen... on her head, the Wuji?
"I don't know who to trust anymore."
Yue Gong Li's hair was still disheveled from air-drying. His voice carried a hint of helplessness and an indifferent sense of relief.
After speaking with his head down, he looked up, swept the messy strands of hair from his forehead back, and a purple eye pattern opened between his brows.
"A-Li..."
Yue Gong Nu's pupils dilated, her face suddenly losing all color.
The Wuji's crossed eyes stared intently at him, at this newly ascended Zu Shen.
Compared to when he first heard about it, and compared to the confident Yue Gong Li who played with hearts and schemes in the Divine Ruins.
At this moment, even though he was crowned Li Zu, he seemed to have severed the ties of Han Gong Di Jing behind him, breaking all the shackles that bound him.
Was this a good thing?
It seemed to be, and yet it seemed not.
Like a naive little boy who spent an entire afternoon meticulously building a huge castle on the beach.
The evening waves gently rolled in, crushing all that beauty into smithereens.
The little boy was bewildered.
Caught between crying hysterically and having an emotional breakdown.
Perhaps a casual remark from a passerby could also cause the scales to completely tip.
"Cackle!"
The Wuji stretched its neck and crowed twice.
Yu Zhi Wen clutched her skirt and simultaneously translated, "You can trust me." This time, she was so nervous she didn't dare change half a word.
Yue Gong Li's lips curved, his eyes deep and charmingly handsome: "Can I trust you?"
Yu Zhi Wen felt as if she had waited for a century.
"Cackle!"
She spoke promptly: "At least Ba Zun An trusts me."
After speaking, the Wuji looked to one side, and Yu Zhi Wen also glanced in the direction of Nu Jie.
Yue Gong Li paused for a full second, as if doing some mental preparation, and finally followed suit, shifting his gaze.
He grinned, laughing softly:
"Jiejie..."
Yue Gong Nu's soft heartstrings suddenly trembled.
A wave of bitterness, seemingly from nowhere, emptied her heart and surged uncontrollably to her nose.
Even seeing Xiao Ba after thirty years, she hadn't experienced such intense emotional fluctuations. With A-Li's single word "Jiejie," Yue Gong Nu's eyes blurred with tears, which uncontrollably streamed down her face.
In a trance, she saw the little boy clutching her skirt, collapsing on the ground like a small puppy wiping away fake tears, as if trying to hold her back:
"Jiejie, don't go."
"Jiejie, please play with A-Li a little longer."
"Jiejie, why, after you became the Sheng Di's successor, did you ignore A-Li and even hit A-Li? This will make A-Li sad, very, very sad!"
"...Then, A-Li won't ignore you either."
With a rumble, her mind exploded like thunder.
Past warmth, like a shattered bronze mirror, scattered in all directions, irreparable.
Finally, appearing in the teary mist, was only the rustling pages of the ancient book "Shu Zu," frozen on the "Chong Yin" chapter, on the image of that monstrous, purple "Chong Yin Zhi Yan."
The vertical eye pattern suddenly opened.
The enormous pupil filled the entire face of the faceless figure in the drawing, devouring all the cute, 'tea-like' speaking little A-Li.
"A-Li!"
Yue Gong Nu reached out to grasp.
But Yue Gong Li was like a stranger, stepping back in time. She caught nothing.
"Yue Gong Li!"
Yue Gong Nu called out hoarsely, but this time she couldn't manage to be stern no matter what.
She clearly saw that A-Li had something to say, his lips quivering, accumulating many words.
He didn't even need to open his mouth...
He only needed to curve the corner of his eye, and it meant he was about to complain;
As long as he first jutted out his lower jaw, he was going to speak sarcastically;
If he came stumbling with a pouting chin and teary eyes, he must have been bullied by the Dao family siblings. He wouldn't dare say anything outside, only daring to act tough at home, coming over to first hit his own Jiejie's hand. She would have to force him to tell her everything before she would step in to help him beat someone up.
Speak up.
Quickly, speak up.
Who bullied you this time? Tell Jiejie, and Jiejie will stand up for you...
"Uh-oh."
Yue Gong Nu was sobbing uncontrollably, her steps faltering as she tried to grasp A-Li's hand tightly, unwilling to let him retreat.
She saw A-Li open his mouth.
"Hmm, hmm..."
She saw A-Li's lower lip tremble, even his teeth chattering, as if he were mute and couldn't utter a single word.
"A-Li!"
Yue Gong Nu lunged forward.
But Yue Gong Li had already closed his mouth, his eyelids drooped, his expression returning to indifference, and he turned around with unwavering resolve.
He vanished with a whoosh.
In the end, this coward didn't dare to speak everything in front of outsiders.
All he left her with were two words transmitted, without any emotion, as if after decades, siblings had become strangers.
"Take care."
Zizi!
Gui Fo Jie was barren, the land scarred, with purple lightning occasionally streaking across it.
Yao Zu didn't emerge.
Kui Lei Han, in confusion, turned around, looking at the fellow standing in the void.
"Ah hahaha!"
"Ah hahahahaha!"
He had been laughing for about ten seconds, like a mad dog, clutching his head, eyes wide, as if venting something. His hair was disheveled, and tears and snot streamed down his face from laughter.
But he only laughed, did not move, did nothing. It seemed that only he himself was breaking down, and it had nothing to do with this world.
Kui Lei Han frowned, unable to help but ask: "Li Da Gong Zi, has he cultivated 'Feng Dao'?"
With a swish, Yue Gong Li stopped his madness.
He straightened up, his slender, long hands moving, first elegantly adjusting his attire.
Then, crudely, in mid-air and in front of the world, he blew his nose. His narrow, foxy eyes narrowed, and he then looked up with a condescending gaze:
"Kui Lei Han, do you know that I, Ben Gong Zi, have been displeased with you for a very, very long time?"
Kui Lei Han froze at the sound.
He couldn't recall any past grievances between them.
It seems that calling us nodding acquaintances would be a bit of an exaggeration, wouldn't it?
The corner of Yue Gong Li's eye contorted, the purple pupil between his brows split open, and his voice became more ruthless:
"Shi Zun Zuo are merely dogs selected by Sheng Di Shi Jia. I, Ben Gong Zi, ask you, when Han Gong Di Jing summoned you to guard the gate, why did you refuse?"
Kui Lei Han's eye twitched.
Are you sick?
You said "dogs," you said "guard the gate," why would I go up there?
"Why is it that among the ten dogs, you have the best talent, and after a single moment of enlightenment, yo ho, you can even comprehend some bullshit Che Shen Nian?"
"Fa Shen Xing Jie? Wow, what a vivid name, resounding, Cao Yi Han, you're really something, your naming is truly excellent!"
"Fa Shen!"
Yue Gong Li roared, Chong Yin evil energy erupting around him, "Do you also want to attack me, Ben Zu?!"
That dense Zu Shen pressure covered the Five Domains, finally allowing all the bewildered people to clearly see.
Li Zu!
Yue Gong Li, truly sealed as a Zu Shen?
When, where, how was it sealed, why was Sheng Shen Da Lu completely unaware?
The word "Ren" from Xu Xiao Shou came to his ears. Kui Lei Han took a deep breath, not bothering to argue with this hedonistic madman.
"Answer me, Cao Yi Han!"
But Yue Gong Li wanted to argue. Seeing Kui Lei Han turn to leave, he seemed to perceive it as an insult.
Without another word, he charged forward with a raised fist.
How dare you?!
Kui Lei Han turned around, delivering a punch in mid-air, meeting the incoming blow.
This punch did not use Fa Shen Xing Jie; it was merely lightning flowing, intending only to teach Yue Gong Li a lesson.
Yet, he saw Yue Gong Li raise his fist, holding it left and right at his chest, his index finger sliding down his middle finger, forming the Chong Yin Jue Yin:
"Forbidden: Po Fa Zhi Ting."
With a roar, the entire Gui Fo Jie fell silent.
Even the wind was sucked dry. The lightning elements in the void, including those within Kui Lei Han's body, were all utterly suppressed.
The violent lightning fist that struck his opponent retained only physical strength, while Yue Gong Li's punch was fully enveloped in Chong Yin evil energy.
One punch landed directly on Kui Lei Han's face, staggering him and snapping his head back.
The spectators in the Five Domains stirred.
What was going on? Li Zu was confronting Nian Zu, but this Li Zu seemed to be using Chong Yin's techniques.
"Yue Gong Li, have you been possessed by Chong Yin?"
No sooner had Kui Lei Han spoken than Li Da Gong Zi, gaining an advantage, refused to relent. He pulled out two daggers from his waist and thrust them into Kui Lei Han's chest with a 'bang'.
This time, however, they merely pierced the skin before being repelled by purple lightning.
"Wow, what powerful Fa Shen Xing Jie!"
"Kui Lei Han, you're truly strong! You actually cultivated a generation of Che Shen Nian; you are the patriarch of Nian Dao!"
Yue Gong Li shrieked in surprise, making it impossible to tell if he was playing around or serious.
Suddenly, he raised both fists, and the aura of Che Shen Nian also surged from within him.
It was an effeminate, icy power, carrying extremely strong emotions, like viscous liquid, flowing throughout his body and converging on his knuckles.
"What about my second-generation Che Shen Nian?"
"Yin Shen Zhi Li! Didn't expect it, did you? I'm also a genius; I actually secretly cultivated Che Shen Nian!"
"Has my sudden emergence also left you, the patriarch of Nian Dao, in awe?"
Yue Gong Li smirked, his fists smashing forward.
Kui Lei Han truly didn't know what kind of madness this boy was suffering from. With Fa Shen Xing Jie attached to him, he charged forward without hesitation.
A huge black hole exploded in the void.
Yue Gong Li was sent flying several li back, blood spurting from his seven orifices, yet he laughed maniacally along the way, howling while vomiting blood:
"Is that all? Is that all? Is that all?"
"As strong as Kui Lei Han, as strong as Nian Zu, as strong as Fa Shen Xing Jie, is that all you've got?"
Kui Lei Han's eyebrows twitched.
Honestly, he really didn't want to engage.
Furthermore, with Xu Xiao Shou's advice to conceal his strength, he didn't want to waste his power on this mad dog Li; it was meaningless.
But Yue Gong Li suddenly started forming the Chong Yin hand seal again!
A chilling sensation, like being targeted by a venomous snake, made his back prickle. The Shen Xiao Kui Shou, who had just receded, surged upwards again.
Yue Gong Li lunged forward, his eyes bloodshot, completely without protection:
"Kill me, Cao Yi Han!"
Kui Lei Han froze for a moment, truly insane?
In that instant, he thought, "Not good," and his gaze swept downwards.
The land of Gui Fo Jie had fallen into a dark abyss. Below, a gaping maw, spanning several realms, with fangs as wide as pillars, was closing in.
"Ohh!"
"You lost, Cao Yi Han."
Yue Gong Li's pouncing figure disintegrated.
He was still in his original spot, the Chong Yin hand gesture held horizontally in front of his face, looking very dashing:
"Forbidden: Shu Gou Da Can!"
With a thunderous boom, the Five Domains of Sheng Shen Da Lu trembled, and cultivators looked on in horror.
Even though Kui Lei Han quickly ascended, Shen Xiao Kui Shou was instantly bitten at the waist by the Shu Gou that lunged from the ground.
With a violent tear!
It shattered instantly.
The Shu Gou's momentum was undiminished, its sharp fangs savagely biting into Kui Lei Han's chest and abdomen, as if to tear him in half.
"Old man!"
Cao Er Zhu exclaimed from afar, wondering why Li Zu was attacking his old man.
"A-Li..."
Yue Gong Nu's eyes were filled with heartache. What she saw was not her once adorable little brother, but merely a walking corpse, a vessel possessed by Chong Yin, driven mad.
"Yue Gong Li!"
Kui Lei Han roared, his eyes flashing fiercely.
But one step slow, every step slow. The destructive power of Chong Yin Forbidden Technique was truly no joke.
The power of Fa Shen Xing Jie within him was being absorbed by the Shu Gou bite by bite, even as he was about to move.
Yue Gong Li lowered his left hand from in front of his face, raised his right hand high, still performing the Chong Yin Jue Yin:
"Forbidden: San Shi Feng Zhan!"
Suddenly, a divine throne condensed behind him, with the three-headed, six-armed Chong Yin Xie Shen, Xiao Qi, perched upon it.
Chong Yin also gently formed a hand seal. Above the nine heavens, three ethereal, hazy purple mist Chong Gui manifested, lined up, each shouldering a three-pronged Fa Chang Dao.
The San Shi Dao slashed down from outside the heavens, its purple light slicing apart Kui Lei Han's body.
"Tch!"
Blood splattered everywhere. Kui Lei Han was split into four, his head severed from his body, and his limbs cut apart.
He finally realized that Yue Gong Li was serious.
Gong Zi Li might not be capable, but behind him stood a Chong Yin.
No longer a bodiless, fragmented Chong Yin, but a Chong Yin that had cultivated a new, albeit imperfect yet sufficient, Shu seed using Yue Gong Li's Zu Shen body as a sacrifice.
That was the patriarch of Shu Dao!
A Chong Yin that had recovered its Zu Shen combat power, even if not in perfect condition, could unleash its full might.
The destructive power of Chong Yin Forbidden Technique might even be able to contend with Ba Zun An's Qing Ju.
"Damn it..."
But at the same time, just as he was about to unleash his full power against Chong Yin.
His ears twitched, and Kui Lei Han realized that Yue Gong Li didn't seem to be serious after all?
He was just one step too slow...
"It seems Nian Zu is nothing more than this."
"Bully Shen Nong Bai Cao, perhaps. In front of me, Ben Gong Zi, you still have to kneel."
Yue Gong Li formed another hand seal, scoffing with a nonchalant smile:
"Forbidden: Dao Bei Song Zhong!"
With a loud rumble, the Shu Gou was compressed by an invisible giant force, transforming into a black, hundred-zhang tomb amidst its screams.
Tian Dao was confined by a black beam of light, thrusting down from the sky, striking Kui Lei Han's brow, locking his body in place, and sealing him within the Shu Tomb.
The power of Fa Shen Xing Jie in Gui Fo Jie completely vanished.
Even the purple lightning that had been flashing everywhere before disappeared without a trace.
"Shhh."
Yue Gong Li narrowed his foxy eyes and chuckled softly, placing a finger to his lips, his expression smug, with a boasting tone:
"Quiet, applaud me."
The entire world fell silent.
Everyone was shocked by the sudden burst of Yue Gong Li, or rather, the Chong Yin Forbidden Technique.
A smooth combo, clearing the field directly.
What was this for? Did Yue Gong Li also want to destroy Sheng Shen Da Lu?
How did he seem even crazier than Nian Zu, and his destructive power even more potent?
"Whoosh."
From beneath Gui Fo Jie, life force secretly dispersed, escaping from the north and south directions.
Yue Gong Li took a deep breath, the smugness in his eyes vanishing, his expression becoming utterly cold.
Suddenly, he twisted his face into a grotesque, ferocious snarl, like a dog whose tail had been stepped on, and shrieked:
"Shen Nong Bai Cao, Ben Zu said 'quiet'! What are you making noise about?!"
