Above the Great Dao

Chapter 1186 548: Wu Qi Dies Again_2

Wu Qi's eyes were bloodshot, and he charged forward boldly, his fists and feet striking in succession, cleaving mountains and carving paths, piercing through layer upon layer of flesh and blood, pursuing the direction of the Heavenly Venerate!

The Flask of Yin and Yang Essence burst forth with rosy clouds, transforming into a raging sea of fire, forcing back the surging flesh and blood.

"Back then, you were the only formidable expert left in Great Shang."

The voice of the Heavenly Venerate came from another direction, provoking Wu Qi to immediately change course. The Heavenly Venerate laughed from afar, "You know, only by exploiting their fearless attacks did you stand a chance to harm me. So you let Great Shang's ancestors sacrifice themselves, consuming my cultivation power!"

Wu Qi's heart felt as if it were being torn apart, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Back then, he crafted the plan to encircle the Heavenly Venerate, a plan exactly as the Heavenly Venerate described, using all gods of Da Shang Heavenly Court to smash through the flesh and blood, besieging the Heavenly Venerate, trying to deplete his power as much as possible. While he retained his strength, preparing to deliver a fatal blow in peak condition.

This plan required using Da Shang Heavenly Court's gods as sacrificial offerings, an act of utmost rebellion!

Because the gods of Da Shang Heavenly Court were the ancestors of Shang's people, sacrificing the ancestors, even the thought of it, is a grave sin!

Yet he still came to Da Shang Heavenly Court, bowing before the ancestors, facing the ancient, towering deities, presenting his plan.

The deities sat within swirling incense smoke, with the first-generation Great Shang King, who led the remnants of Great Shang across the Dark Sea, finding this place after decades of migration, taking the lead.

Wu Qi still remembered his voice, deep and weathered, slowly saying, "Master, you need not blame yourself. Our ancestors accepted the incense of the descendants precisely to shield them."

The ancient deities stood up, Divine Power surging within the Heavenly Court.

"In times of crisis, if we must be sacrificed, then we are willing to be that sacrifice, using our spirits to give you a chance at a fatal blow!"

"Master, do not disappoint our high hopes!"

In the battle within the Heavenly Court, all Ancestor Gods perished, eventually securing hope for Wu Qi to defeat the Heavenly Venerate. He sacrificed his life to perform this strike, blasting the Heavenly Venerate from the Heavenly Court to the Moon, exploding him, while he succumbed to the Heavenly Venerate's counterattack.

The two mutually destroyed each other!

The Heavenly Venerate's voice came from deeper within, laughing, "Master, is that what those deities called you? They hoped you could kill me, but I survived. How can you face them? Oh, right, you don't need to face them because I've shattered their souls."

Wu Qi pierced through layers of flesh and blood, chasing to where the voice was, but the Heavenly Venerate had vanished.

The Heavenly Venerate's voice came from even farther, laughing, "Master, don't you feel powerless? You sacrificed them, yet failed to kill me; they died in vain..."

Wu Qi chased his voice, exhausted and gasping for breath.

Flesh and blood rolled in, pressed from all directions, causing the sea of fire from the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence to continuously shrink.

"Master..."

The Heavenly Venerate's voice came from farther away, Wu Qi struggled to run, his pace slowing, his Dao Realm invaded by flesh and blood, shrinking.

He clenched his teeth, suddenly pouring all his energy into the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence.

The Flask of Yin and Yang Essence suddenly erupted with brilliant rosy clouds, flying up high from his head, piercing through layers of flesh and blood, rushing away!

The Heavenly Venerate was shocked and enraged: "Wu Qi, you're abandoning the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence, intending to return it to Chen Shi? Dream on!"

He commanded boundless flesh and blood to block the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence.

At the same time, Wu Qi's eyes sparked with brilliance, Qi-Blood surged dramatically, following the Heavenly Venerate's voice, breaking through layers of flesh and blood, confronting the Heavenly Venerate.

The Heavenly Venerate, while controlling the flesh to encircle the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence, had to deal with his offensive, suddenly overwhelmed!

Wu Qi fought fiercer, with increasingly powerful strikes.

"Boom!"

The Heavenly Venerate was punched in the chest, forced backward, the flesh behind exploding apart.

Wu Qi valiantly pursued, the duo battled across thousands of miles, and the Heavenly Venerate coughed blood, finally, relying on overwhelming flesh and blood, intercepting the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence!

With the magical treasure in hand, he freed up his hand, activating the Demon Technique of the Great Wilderness Ming Dao Collection, Taiji Obscured Heaven's Dao Power churning boundless flesh and blood into the ultimate strike!

His strike, fueled by wrath, was unique, determined to shatter Wu Qi entirely!

As his strike was about to land on Wu Qi, suddenly Wu Qi's body shook, a series of explosive sounds emanated from his limbs and bones, and his bones shattered inch by inch.

His Primordial Spirit still posed to attack, paused slightly, and his Primordial Spirit, akin to sand, collapsed and shattered!

His previous relentless offense was merely a desperate assault before death, he had long depleted his life.

"Chen Zhenwang, did you find his weakness yet?"

Wu Qi's face bore a smile, yet also sullenly, "Sadly, I couldn't send the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence away..."

His pupils suddenly turned empty and pale, life extinguished.

"If there were a next life..."

The Heavenly Venerate's divine skill struck, Wu Qi's physical body shattered, exploding into blood mist.

The Heavenly Venerate withdrew, his face darkened, commanding the blood and flesh to absorb Wu Qi's physical body and shattered Primordial Spirit, sneering, "No remains, Primordial Spirit forever obliterated! Wu Qi, I don't believe you can be reborn!"

In Xinxiang Imperial Capital, within the Imperial Palace Garden, another Wu Qi fell off the gourd vine.

He bewilderedly stared at the Purple Heaven Vine before him, which had unknowingly sprouted another Wu Qi, dangling from the vine, swinging cluelessly.

Wu Qi looked at his other self, confused, and then looked down at his own hands.

He came to the nearby pond, looking down at his reflection in the water, touched his head, bald at the center, likely the gourd vine stem, hence no hair grew.

"Where am I? Why am I here? Am I not dead already?"

His mind flooded with countless questions.

Just then, a little eunuch approached, taken aback upon seeing him.

Wu Qi asked, "What time is it? Who are you? Where is this? Who is the current King Shang?"

After a long pause, Wu Qi stared, shocked, at the sky, silently leaving the palace.

Little eunuch Xiao Chengzi hurriedly said, "Wu Qi, you can't leave! Your Majesty hasn't returned yet! Wu Qi! This is bad!"

Despair Slope, flesh and blood slithered slowly, contracted, shrinking toward the sky, seemingly reluctant to leave this world.

The Heavenly Venerate's expression darkened, snapping, "Return!"

The flesh in the sky suddenly trembled violently, seemingly furious, transforming into a massive hand in mid-air.

The Heavenly Venerate was somewhat nervous, hastily summoning a long whip from Taiji Obscured Heaven, the whip entirely green, spanning a hundred meters, flashing with bluish-white thunder.

The flesh in the sky, as if conscious, seemed afraid of the whip, immediately forming a solid flesh shield, constructing thick and hard, continuously retreating. Eventually, the flesh receded cleanly, and the flesh shield softened, flowing away like water, disappearing from Despair Slope.

The Heavenly Venerate breathed a sigh of relief, stowing the Green Whip, returning his Dao Realm.

"This thing grows stronger and stronger..."

He looked towards Despair Slope, frowning. Now Despair Slope was riddled with ruins, Immortal Mountain gnawed to white ground by the flesh, polluted by Evil Qi everywhere.

More importantly, there was emptiness all around, almost all Heavenly Dao Immortals, Heavenly Dao Practitioners buried in this vicious battle.

"This time Wu Qi came to Despair Slope, fought me to the death, but Chen Shi, Zhong Wuwang and others did not act, merely spectating. What are they scheming?"

He muttered, "However, now Wu Qi is dead, their strongest combat power lost, regardless of their tactics, all useless! It's a pity for Despair Slope, after all, I painstakingly cultivated it..."

He shook his head.

"Now, the greatest obstacle has emerged, plus the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence in hand, let's sweep the world, assimilate this realm!"
