Chapter 1885 - 1854: Even in Death, I’ll Make You Suffer
After several consecutive void shifts, Li Chen only stopped with Yang Xin when he felt his Yuan Force was about to be drained dry again.
Supporting his knees with his hands, Li Chen began to breathe heavily.
When the Cat Emperor appeared, Li Chen had just emerged from a great void shift recently. Although he swallowed a pill, he only managed to recover a little Yuan Force, and these few void shifts had nearly drained him completely, even the energy from the pill that hadn’t been refined was almost exhausted.
If other cultivators played like this, they would surely destabilize their foundations, resulting in a regression of cultivation.
Fortunately, it’s Li Chen.
Previously in the Heaven Realm, Li Chen’s foundation was somewhat unstable due to the rapid advancement of his cultivation, but this time of re-cultivation had solidified Li Chen’s foundation to an extreme.
Earlier, Li Chen was like a giant hammer made of tons of fine iron, but the handle seemed like a chopstick.
Despite the hammer’s ability to unleash infinite terrifying destructive power when used properly, any misuse would result in the handle breaking.
Several times, if it weren’t for his luck barely getting him through crises, even if Li Chen were undying, he would’ve long had his cultivation scattered.
After re-cultivating, Li Chen’s foundation solidified comprehensively, merging the hammer and handle into one, rather than existing separately. His cultivation realm became exceptionally firm.
In just over ten years, he achieved such a terrifying cultivation, with an incredibly stable realm.
Previously, perhaps the legendary Mad Heavenly King of the Heaven Realm could be considered the top genius, but now, it seems this title will be handed over.
"Shall we rest for a while first?" Yang Xin couldn’t help but frown upon seeing Li Chen’s pale face and said.
"No need." Li Chen shook his head: "We’ve already spent a lot of time, and we don’t know when they’ll determine a winner. You’ve seen Daoist Lord’s strength. We’ve been running for more than three years, and once he exits seclusion, he finds us in just a few days. If we don’t leave the Immortal Domain for the Frontier Battlefield soon, we’ll be doomed sooner or later."
"Well then." Yang Xin agreed with Li Chen: "I’ll control the flying magic treasure. You should first recover your own losses."
"Okay!" Li Chen did not argue, realizing he indeed needed time to recover, he agreed promptly.
Sitting on the flying magic treasure, it quickly turned into an escape light speeding towards the Northern Region of Gonghua Heaven.
According to rumors, the Battle Palace stands tall in the extreme cold land of the Northern Region.
...
One month later, the flying magic treasure finally entered the range of the Northern Region of Gonghua Heaven.
It’s not that Yang Xin was slow; after all, she’s an Immortal King, and when she fully controlled the flying magic treasure, its speed was incredibly fast. The blame could only be on the Immortal Domain being too vast.
Just Gonghua Heaven is larger than several Heaven Realm Starlands combined.
It took Li Chen three years to fly from Qingwei Heaven to the vicinity of Gonghua Heaven, Yang Xin reaching the Northern Region in a month was remarkably fast.
"Finally reached the Northern Region."
Looking at the gradually snow-decorated landscape outside the flying magic treasure, Li Chen sighed with a slight relief.
The Battle Palace is not a single force of the Immortal Domain, but rather one composed of almost all top-level powerhouses of the Immortal Domain!
It’s a force against external threats!
In front of the Battle Palace, no one dares to be presumptuous.
It’s an implicit rule, even a Daoist Lord would be punished.
Once within the Battle Palace’s domain, Li Chen and the others would be completely safe.
"Now that we’re in the Northern Region, heading north, it shouldn’t be long before entering the Battle Palace’s domain," Yang Xin smiled.
"Indeed!" Li Chen nodded: "We’ll be completely safe then."
The Spiritual Treasure, as a powerful Daoist Lord whose cultivation hasn’t completely recovered and who vanished for years, would surely draw attention from others. Since he hasn’t fully recovered, even with arrogance, he wouldn’t dare to snatch anyone near the Battle Palace, would he?
As for Mo Daoyi, there’s no need for further concern.
If his identity were exposed, he might face even worse danger than Li Chen.
"It’s unclear how their battle turned out." Li Chen murmured while touching his chin.
The battle between two Daoist Lords lingered in Li Chen’s thoughts, as it was his first time witnessing combat of such magnitude. If he’d stayed longer to watch, it might benefit him greatly in the future.
Unfortunately, given his relation to the two Daoist Lords, staying there would’ve led to an unfavorable outcome regardless of whoever won.
While pondering the battle between the two Daoist Lords, suddenly, Li Chen felt the whole flying magic treasure tremble violently.
Before realizing what was happening, he was forcibly pulled out of the flying magic treasure.
"You sure know how to run, kid."
Li Chen glanced up once, and his heart sank.
Mo Daoyi!
Mo Daoyi had actually caught up with him!
Li Chen couldn’t help but curse himself; what a jinx!
Mo Daoyi, with a cold smile, looked at Li Chen and said: "Spiritual Treasure certainly lives up to the reputation of an old Daoist Lord; I nearly succumbed despite having advanced as a Daoist Lord, lucky I escaped quickly. But kid, you’re not as lucky."
Listening to Mo Daoyi, Li Chen felt his heart sink further.
Without the formation’s protection and no one else to rescue him, what could he do?
Perhaps the Battle Palace was ahead, but he had no way to escape now.
Before the Daoist Lord, his feeble space law was utterly inapplicable.
"Let him go!" Yang Xin emerged from the flying magic treasure, seeing Li Chen captured, she lost her cool and disregarded the cultivation gap, attacking Mo Daoyi immediately.
A treasured book was summoned by Yang Xin, pressing towards Mo Daoyi at once.
However, Mo Daoyi swept it away with a casual glance, sending Yang Xin flying along with the book, spitting blood, rendered unconscious instantly.
The gap between Daoist Lord and Immortal King is truly vast.
"Stop!!" Seeing Yang Xin hurt, Li Chen went berserk instantly.
The likes of Lilith, Cherie—those events he yearned never to repeat.
They haunted him for over a decade as unforgettable, heart-wrenching pain.
"Seems you’re quite attached to her, eh?" Mo Daoyi glanced coldly at Li Chen: "But what can you do? If I don’t stop, what can you do?"
With that, Mo Daoyi reached out again towards Yang Xin.
"Touch her, and I’ll make sure you lose a layer of skin even if I die!!" Li Chen’s eyes bled, though his body was imprisoned, the irresistible killing intent from him soared to the skies.
Simultaneously, Li Chen’s cultivation aura could no longer be concealed, it surged straight into the sky.
Mo Daoyi could bind Li Chen’s cultivation but couldn’t suppress his aura.
Li Chen’s cultivation had long reached the peak of Zuitian Realm, poised for a breakthrough at any moment.
Feeling Li Chen’s aura, in the sky, wisps of dark clouds began to gather increasingly.
Seeing this situation, even Mo Daoyi’s face changed dramatically.
