Chapter 100: Fragment of Taixu
Confusion, bewilderment, dazedness…
“I didn’t die?”
Even after confirming repeatedly that nothing was wrong with him, Daoist Master Lan Yu still found it hard to believe.
After all, the power from Li Tianwei’s Golden Core explosion earlier was anything but fake—the eruption of energy was pure to the extreme.
Even Elder Fuzhen had been annihilated, not even his divine soul escaped. Yet, he himself was completely unharmed. Unable to understand the reason, Lan Yu decided not to think too much about it.
He soared through the air toward Li Tianwei.
“Martial Nephew, are you alright?”
Lan Yu looked at Li Tianwei’s pale complexion and his thoughtful expression and asked anxiously.
Seeing Lan Yu approach, Li Tianwei suppressed the thoughts in his mind and shook his head.
“Martial Uncle, it’s nothing serious for now.”
Li Tianwei’s calm response eased Lan Yu’s heart a little, though he still couldn’t help but scan Li Tianwei with his Divine Sense.
Confirming there was not the slightest problem with him, Lan Yu finally let out a sigh of relief.
To say the least, he was sent here under the orders of the Sacred Land to protect Li Tianwei within the Forbidden Land of Taixu.
If anything had happened to Li Tianwei because of Elder Fuzhen and his group, Lan Yu felt that he would have no reason to live.
Even if the Sacred Land spared him, Bai Muxu surely would not.
All things considered, Lan Yu knew very well that the reason they had survived this ambush was entirely thanks to Li Tianwei.
To think that someone at the Golden Core Realm could suppress a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator—it was beyond Lan Yu’s imagination what kind of innate talent that required.
But this matter no longer concerned him. Whatever Li Tianwei relied on, or what the reason behind it was, it wasn’t his place to ask.
As for whether Li Tianwei had any issues, that would have to wait for the Sacred Land’s confirmation.
The power Li Tianwei displayed was far too terrifying it already surpassed all Heaven-Defying Geniuses.
Yet, the more terrifying it was, the more it seemed natural.
After all, if he were truly an undercover spy or possessed by a Great Demon, he would never dare to reveal such a horrifying strength—it would only make others more suspicious.
From Lan Yu’s view, the power Li Tianwei showed now was simply his own talent.
His master, Bai Muxu, was a perfect example.
Who would have imagined a Spirit Transformation cultivator at the age of fifty? And before that, he had already fought and slain opponents beyond his realm.
Besides, throughout the historical records of the Sacred Land of Lingxu, such talent—though monstrous—was not unheard of.
However, one who comprehended a hundred Dao Intents truly had not appeared before.
“Martial Nephew, let’s return to the Sacred Land first!”
“I’m not sure whether they will send more people after us.”
“Your master is currently undergoing Tribulation in the Sacred Land, preparing to advance. We must remain cautious.”
Thinking of this, Lan Yu immediately proposed.
Li Tianwei nodded slightly at his words, then seemed to recall something and turned around.
“Alright, let’s go back first—but Martial Uncle, wait a moment.”
Turning around, Li Tianwei walked toward the rear and searched carefully.
Before long, he found what he was looking for.
A fragment, like a piece of shattered mirror, floated midair. Li Tianwei grasped it in his hand and sensed it quietly.
Inside was a familiar Immortal Energy—the aura of the Forbidden Land of Taixu.
“A fragment of the Forbidden Land of Taixu.”
Li Tianwei hadn’t forgotten how the Forbidden Land of Taixu had cut off and expelled the entire region where he stood.
Otherwise, the explosion of his Golden Core just now would have detonated within the Forbidden Land itself.
As a battlefield of immortals, the fragments left behind were bound to hold some value.
Naturally, Li Tianwei intended to preserve it. If not for undergoing Tribulation just now, he would have already taken it into his possession.
“It even survived my Golden Core’s explosion without damage.”
“Seems like I’ll have to wait until I Become an Immortal before properly dealing with this Sacred Land of Taixu.”
Li Tianwei’s gaze swept across the Western Surroundings.
Apart from the lingering mark in the sky, the Forbidden Land of Taixu had completely vanished.
Meanwhile, the terrifying waves from the Golden Core explosion that had shaken heaven and earth were now rapidly subsiding.
Clearly, the destructive power of a Golden Core fusion, capable of annihilating all, seemed limited in this world.
Otherwise, the detonation of his Golden Core in stellar fusion state should have destroyed far more.
But Li Tianwei understood that was only natural different worlds had different structures, even planets varied in mass.
A force that could obliterate everything in one world might not have the same effect elsewhere.
A single grain of sand from an extremely dense celestial body could weigh more than tens of thousands of tons of iron.
So for his Golden Core fusion explosion not to completely destroy this region, Li Tianwei reflected that perhaps it was his own shortcoming—the power of fusion was great, yet in this cultivation world, it was still somewhat lacking.
After carefully storing away the fragment of the Forbidden Land of Taixu, Li Tianwei returned to Lan Yu’s side.
“Martial Uncle, we can go now.”
Lan Yu didn’t question what Li Tianwei had done, nor did he ask why the explosion hadn’t harmed him earlier.
Li Tianwei having secrets of his own was perfectly normal; knowing too much might instead make him a target for stronger beings. Sometimes, ignorance was safer.
“Let’s go.”
Lan Yu formed a hand seal that hovered in the air before turning into a ray of light, carrying Li Tianwei with him toward the Sacred Land of Lingxu.
The two streaked across the sky, vanishing into the distance.
At the same time—
In the Sacred Land of Baiyuan, two Spirit Transformation cultivators had been dispatched to strike at Li Tianwei.
The high-ranking members of the Sacred Land waited patiently.
After all, since Xiao E led the duel team to the Sacred Land of Lingxu, no one had returned.
This already signified that the conflict between the Sacred Land of Baiyuan and the Sacred Land of Lingxu had officially begun.
While these high-level figures calculated their next move, wondering if the assassins they sent against Li Tianwei had succeeded.
At that moment, the soul tablets of Xu Yuqing and Elder Fuzhen suddenly toppled over, their soul flames extinguished.
The Sacred Lord of Baiyuan’s expression darkened instantly.
“It seems we’ve fallen into their trap. No wonder we received those reports about Li Tianwei looks like everything was part of Lingxu Sacred Land’s plan.”
The Sacred Lord of Baiyuan murmured in a low voice.
“But it doesn’t matter. Since Qinglan and Yincang also joined hands with us, we’ll just drag them down with us.”
The other elders and high-level cultivators in the Grand Hall exchanged glances and sighed deeply.
Meanwhile, a pair of eyes filled with a faint demonic gleam silently transmitted everything that had happened in the Baiyuan Sacred Land’s Grand Hall elsewhere.
In the Sacred Land of Lingxu, Zhang Linyuan received the message of the three Sacred Lands’ failed assault on Li Tianwei. His expression grew cold.
“Truly useless—these cultivators are garbage. It seems I’ll have to act personally.”
