Book 6: Chapter 121: All Life Striving Their Hardest
When the azure dragon charged over, the heavenly deity body bit down on it. No matter how the azure dragon squirmed, it could not struggle free from the maw’s grip.
An attack from the ancestor dragon? That was simply a joke before the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s heavenly deity body.
The faces of Long Shenying and Long Shenwu sank at the sudden change.
“You still have strength to spare?” the Western Sea Dragon King cried out from within the azure dragon.
“Strength to spare? Did you think that the insignificant Guan Qi could block me? Ancestor dragon? Hah! Not to mention the one ancestor dragon’s strike you have, even if the ancestor dragon were alive, I could consume him too,” the heavenly deity body said coldly.
As the heavenly deity body spoke, the suction from his mouth intensified.
“Ah! No! No! Senior Wu, save me!” the Western Sea Dragon King roared in despair.
At this moment, the Western Sea Dragon King could not resist at all. Just one bite could deal with him. He could not even resist. The mouth seemed to seal off Spiritual Energy, preventing the three from escaping.
My future death resulted from trying to deal with the Six Paths Veritable Lord?
As the Western Sea Dragon King cried out in horror, Long Shenying and Long Shenwu approached.
“The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s hands are driving the Go Dao ritual array, maintaining a stalemate with Old Mister Guan Qi. His mouth is biting the azure dragon. He cannot do anything else. This is a heaven-sent opportunity. Long Shenwu, you attack the Six Paths Veritable Lord and knock him into the chaotic spacetime. I’ll retrieve the Immortal Origin!” Long Shenying cried out.
Indeed, such a heaven-sent opportunity was hard to come by.
However, Long Shenwu glared. “Why should you be the one to retrieve the Immortal Origin?”
“What is there to fight over at this moment?” Long Shenying demanded furiously as he glared back.
“Hahaha! What a joke! If I don’t fight now, when should I?” Long Shenwu glared.
“Very well. Then, you retrieve the Immortal Origin, and I’ll deal with the Six Paths Veritable Lord. Remember this: if you become the immortal, remember to revive Eminent Father in the future!” Long Shenying shouted coldly.
“Alright!” Long Shenwu answered.
Boom!
The two charged forward. Long Shenying showed a ferocious expression as he punched. A colossal fist manifested out of nowhere, trying to knock the Six Paths Veritable Lord into the chaotic spacetime. However, Long Shenwu showed an expression of greed as he manifested a large palm to grab the small red ball, the Immortal Origin.
“Hah! He overestimates himself, but you are simply reckless. Do you really think I cannot do anything?” the heavenly deity body snorted coldly.
The heavenly deity body’s clothes tore at the back. Then, another arm came out of the hole.
The appearance of a third arm made the expressions of Long Shenying and Long Shenwu change.
Boom!
The third hand instantly shattered Long Shenying’s manifested fist. At the same time, the rebound knocked Long Shenying back.
Long Shenying had only suffered from the shock waves. Long Shenwu, who targeted the Immortal Origin, bore the brunt of the attack.
The third hand shot up and shattered Long Shenwu’s manifested palm. Then, it appeared before him.
“What?” Long Shenwu’s expression changed.
Boom!
The third hand grabbed Long Shenwu.
Grabbed?
The two second-generation jiangchen zombies were not even worth a strike before the heavenly deity body. They were like little children flailing their fists.
“No! That’s impossible! Let me go!” Long Shenwu exclaimed.
“Let go of him!” Long Shenying approached instantly and punched.
Boom!
The third hand holding Long Shenwu punched. Long Shenying’s manifested fist exploded again. The powerful impact sent Long Shenying flying into the depths of outer space like a meteor.
“How reckless! Even if Jiangchen were here, I could consume him too. What more you two insignificant things?” the heavenly deity body said coldly.
“You-you were pretending? You had strength to spare and were not truly in a stalemate with Old Mister Guan Qi?” the captive Long Shenwu yelled painfully.
“Senior Wu, save me!” the Western Sea Dragon King roared in despair.
The heavenly deity body had easily dealt with the azure dragon and the jiangchen zombies—too easily. Senior Wu’s face sank as its figure stopped.
“You were pretending? You had strength to spare?” Senior Wu said sullenly.
“Humph! I wanted to see if you dared to oppose me. I already warned you. You are the ones seeking death, so you cannot blame others. Senior Wu? Are you coming to send yourself to death too?” the heavenly deity body sneered.
Senior Wu’s face sank.
Nearby, Old Mister Guan Qi sneered, “Six Paths Veritable Lord, who is your acting fooling? If you really have strength to spare, why drag things out with me? Just rush straight into the immortal firmament and control it with the Immortal Origin. Wouldn’t that be better?”
When Old Mister Guan Qi said that, Senior Wu narrowed its eyes as though steeling itself.
“Roar!”
Senior Wu charged at the heavenly deity body while roaring. Now, it no longer worried. The heavenly deity body was indeed stretched thin.
“Humph!” the heavenly deity body snorted coldly. Then, a fourth arm erupted from his back.
Boom!
He threw a punch at Senior Wu.
Thud!
The nine snake heads swung their tails, smashing into the fourth arm.
Senior Wu was among the strongest in the world, after all. The nine snake heads did not retreat in fear after seeing Long Shenwu’s fate.
“Senior Wu, you chose this path yourself!” The heavenly deity body appeared ferocious.
Surging flames suddenly burst out of the heavenly deity body, and his aura grew over tenfold stronger. His Go Dao aura pressed in Old Mister Guan Qi’s direction.
“What? You really were hiding your strength?” the captive Long Shenwu exclaimed.
Although Senior Wu attacked with all its might, it got knocked back.
“The Six Paths Veritable Lord is just using a secret technique to stimulate himself. Senior Wu, it’s up to you now! Force him into the chaotic spacetime!” Old Mister Guan Qi yelled in the distance.
The heavenly deity body’s aura flourished as he hastened in consuming the azure dragon.
“Argh! Argh! Argh!” the Western Sea Dragon King yelled in pain. Now, he felt like he had already entered the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s mouth. He was in the front half of the azure dragon while Ao Shun and Ao Sheng were in the rear. The Six Paths Veritable Lord had already swallowed the front half, so there was no possibility of coming out anymore.
“Hahahaha! I was conceited. No wonder the Eastern Sea Dragon King and Northern Sea Dragon King did not want to participate. Ao Shun and Ao Sheng? No wonder you did not let Ao Tianhuang participate. It looks like you were right. I was too arrogant! How laughable! How funny!” the Western Sea Dragon King cried out in despair.
“Senior, what can we do now?” Ao Shun asked anxiously.
“I won’t survive. According to the future’s history, I died. So, it was here. Hahahaha! To think that it turned out like this. Greed? I was too greedy! The Western Sea Dragon Palace got destroyed because of me! I failed my ancestors and the ancestor dragon. The Western Sea Dragon Palace cannot get destroyed because of me. If you two can escape, please help me rebuild the Western Sea’s dragon palace. Please!” the Western Sea Dragon King roared bitterly.
As he roared, two beams of azure light shot out of his mouth.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two beams of azure light shot into Ao Shun and Ao Sheng.
“Break!” the Western Sea Dragon King roared ferociously.
Boom!
The azure dragon broke in the middle. The back half containing Ao Shun and Ao Sheng immediately flew away. Then, the front half exploded in the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s mouth.
The Western Sea Dragon King chose to self-detonate.
Boom!
The heavenly deity body’s six-colored mouth deformed, but it still sucked everything in.
“I can still eat you if you self-detonate. Humph!” the heavenly deity body snorted coldly.
“The Western Sea Dragon King self-detonated?” Ao Shun exclaimed.
“The ancestor dragon’s essence blood? The Western Sea Dragon King sent the ancestor dragon’s essence blood into our bodies?” Ao Sheng suddenly showed a joyful expression.
As Ao Shun cried out in surprise and Ao Sheng felt excited, a powerful suction came from behind.
“Hah!”
The white-robed Six Paths Veritable Lord that Old Mister Guan Qi controlled roared ferociously. He opened his mouth and sucked, pulling in Ao Shun, Ao Sheng, and the back half of the azure dragon.
Caught off-guard, Ao Shun and Ao Sheng could not react in time. It was all too late.
“No! Old Mister Guan Qi, what are you doing?!” Ao Shun exclaimed.
“You lied to us!” Ao Sheng roared.
Whoosh!
Nothing more came from the two. Old Mister Guan Qi had swallowed them.
Far away, the heavenly deity body’s aura grew tenfold, allowing his Go Dao aura to suppress Old Mister Guan Qi’s. At the same time, the third and fourth arms on his back fought the black tortoise progenitor.
The black tortoise progenitor’s shell was an excellent defense. Even after several strikes from the heavenly deity body, it did not break.
However, that was all. The heavenly deity body’s strength had increased tenfold, giving him sufficient strength to fight Senior Wu.
“Senior Wu, Old Mister Guan Qi can no longer hold up against me. Do you still want to fight? Do you want me to wipe out your entire black tortoise race?” the heavenly deity body roared ferociously.
“Senior Wu, there’s no need to worry about me. He might have grown stronger, but I can too!” Old Mister Guan Qi suddenly shouted.
“What?” The distant heavenly deity body felt slightly startled.
“Four Heavenly Emperors and eight Holy Masters, listen to my words and repeat them in your voice!” Old Mister Guan Qi said.
Four heavenly emperors? Eight holy masters?
“My people!” Old Mister Guan Qi said.
“Our (my) people!”
Twelve voices rang out around Old Mister Guan Qi.
“The voices of the four heavenly emperors and eight holy masters? Didn’t they follow the Six Paths Veritable Lord to kill demons?” The captive Long Shenwu felt startled. Then, he suddenly reacted.
“You ate them? They are in your body?” Long Shenwu said in shock.
“The demons killed Heaven. The Six Paths Veritable Lord and I are currently in the final battle with the demons, and I need everyone’s strength! Please raise your right hand and lend me your energy! Resist the demons and avenge Heaven! Slay the demons for all life! I need you! Please raise your right hand!” Old Mister Guan Qi said.
Those twelve voices rang out around the white-robed Six Paths Veritable Lord again.
“The demons killed Heaven. The Six Paths Veritable Lord and we (I) are currently in the final battle with the demons, and we (I) need everyone’s strength! Please raise your right hand and lend us (me) your energy! Resist the demons and avenge Heaven! Slay the demons for all life! We (I) need you! Please raise your right hand!”
At the same time, twelve small Go Dao ritual arrays appeared around the white-robed Six Paths Veritable Lord. These small ritual arrays resonated with twelve ritual arrays on the Divine Continent.
Those voices spread to the four heavenly dynasties and eight holy lands.
——
A Go Dao ritual array in the assembly hall in the Qi Heavenly Dynasty’s capital suddenly gave off a bright light. The light shot straight up to the blessings cloud sea.
The blessings cloud sea churned, and a vast golden blessings dragon appeared.
The golden blessings dragon roared, and the Qi Heavenly Emperor’s voice rang out. The voice reached the ears of the Qi Heavenly Dynasty citizens through the golden blessings dragon.
“The demons killed Heaven. The Six Paths Veritable Lord and we are currently in the final battle with the demons, and we need everyone’s strength! Please raise your right hand and lend us your energy! Resist the demons and avenge Heaven! Slay the demons for all life! We need you! Please raise your right hand!”
The voice resounded like a loud bell, reaching the ears of all the Qi Heavenly Dynasty citizens.
At this moment, countless Qi Nation citizens knelt on the ground, crying and grieving for Heaven. They hated the demons and felt frustrated over their helplessness.
When the emperor’s voice suddenly rang out, it was like a spark falling into a barrel of oil. It ignited the hatred of all the citizens in an explosion.
