Chapter 1887 - 1856: Mo Daoyi Got Screwed Over...
Mo Daoyi hesitated, debating whether to kill Li Chen immediately or temporarily retreat, waiting until Li Chen finished his tribulation before striking.
"Anyway, even if he successfully crosses the tribulation, he’s just an Immortal King. He remains something I can easily obliterate. Why not retreat first, and strike once he finishes?"
But quickly, Mo Daoyi shook his head again.
He had his pride.
In his view, he was destined to stand at the peak of the Starry Universe. How could he give up because of such a minor hurdle?
The opponent was merely a small Daluo Golden Immortal. If he retreated from such a minor difficulty, what talk was there of standing at the peak in the future?
"Die!"
Mo Daoyi’s gaze fell upon Li Chen, and he lightly uttered a word.
Yet, this simple word seemed to transform into an overwhelming momentum.
In Li Chen’s perception, the entire world seemed to have no space for him, creating an intense sense of pressure and rejection.
"Words follow the law!"
Li Chen gritted his teeth, even under the protection of the Three Lives Everything Armor, blood began to seep from the corners of his mouth.
Despite its strong defense, the armor could not entirely shield all harm, especially from an attack of Dao Lord level.
If the armor weren’t there, the sheer pressure would have instantly ground Li Chen down to the finest energy particles.
"This kid truly has an exotic treasure." Watching Li Chen, Mo Daoyi’s eyes gradually brightened.
Though not as experienced as seasoned Dao Lords who could immediately distinguish the origins of a Supreme Treasure, and despite the Three Lives Everything Armor deliberately hiding its aura, he could discern that what was protecting Li Chen was definitely a rare exotic treasure.
Because if it were ordinary, it would not withstand a Dao Lord level power.
Mo Daoyi’s choice not to leave immediately was within Li Chen’s expectations; he was confident that this man’s arrogance would definitely make him unwilling to let him go easily.
And so, seizing the moment Mo Daoyi struck, Li Chen opened a subtle fissure beside him.
From the fissure, an awareness gradually emerged.
It permeated the earth, and the sky.
"Boom!!"
The heavenly tribulation hadn’t descended yet, but the rolling, muffled thunder in the clouds seemed as if someone were undergoing their tribulation.
Li Chen and Mo Daoyi simultaneously looked up.
For they both felt it.
At this moment, two colossal consciousnesses were communicating in ways they couldn’t comprehend.
Even with Mo Daoyi’s cultivation as a Daoist Lord, he could only sense the might of these consciousnesses, without perceiving more information.
They seemed like... beings far more advanced than himself.
Or rather, infinitely larger!
Even Dao Lord level primordial spirit divine sense seemed insignificant under the vast awareness.
"Could this be... the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Domain?" Mo Daoyi’s face was full of amazement.
He couldn’t fathom what might in the Immortal Domain, apart from the Heavenly Dao, could possess such immense awareness.
The Immortal Domain Heavenly Dao possesses its own consciousness, yet it’s not filled with wisdom, mostly just pure instinct, and cultivators cannot communicate with it.
But now, what entity was communicating with the Immortal Domain Heavenly Dao?
The Heavenly Dao is the operational will of the Immortal Domain; due to its existence, the Immortal Domain persists.
By no means will the Immortal Domain Heavenly Dao ever die or yield unless the Immortal Domain is destroyed.
Such an existence has transcended the concept of a cultivator entirely, and throughout the Immortal Domain, there’s never been word of anyone having the qualification to communicate with the Heavenly Dao.
No stories of anyone truly having communicated with the Immortal Domain Heavenly Dao have been heard...
Yet what are these two swirling consciousnesses in the sky now?
Mo Daoyi was left with confusion.
He possibly never imagined that an existence of the same level as the Immortal Domain Heavenly Dao would genuinely appear here.
Even subtly, it seemed more complete in its evolution than the Immortal Domain Heavenly Dao!
Heart of Heaven, Bai Tianyi!
"How is it, Tian Yi?" Li Chen asked, watching the two vibrating consciousnesses in the sky.
"Brother Li Chen, his spiritual intelligence isn’t very complete, like a child," Bai Tianyi replied cheerfully. "But it’s okay. I made him understand my meaning; I’ve already told him that the guy bullying Brother Li Chen is a big baddie."
"Uh..." Li Chen felt something seemed off, but couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
"So what’s the result? How did he respond to you?" Li Chen asked.
"He said he’d act..." Bai Tianyi’s voice echoed in Li Chen’s mind.
"The Heavenly Dao will act..."
Before Li Chen could contemplate how the Heavenly Dao would intervene, the entire realm suddenly trembled.
This time, the scale was immense, even grander than when Li Chen had seen two Dao Lords act.
Moreover, the momentum wasn’t from an individual but from the entire world!
This was the true danger of the Heavenly Dao!
Maybe as the Heavenly Dao, the will of the Immortal Domain cannot arbitrarily target the creatures of the Immortal Domain, but he had his own methods.
And this method was precisely as Li Chen had guessed before.
Using the loopholes in the rules!
"Buzz!!"
Dazzling golden light illuminated the entire world in an instant, wrapping Mo Daoyi within its scope.
Li Chen, basked in the golden light, felt warmth and immense comfort, but for Mo Daoyi, it was definitely an extremely unpleasant experience.
"Damn it! Damn it!!"
"Buzz~~"
The space suddenly quaked, and even with Li Chen’s understanding of space, he couldn’t perceive many traces, as Mo Daoyi vanished.
Indeed, he’s off to undergo his tribulation.
It’s not surprising that this unlucky fellow will once again face the Dao Lord Golden Tribulation.
With Mo Daoyi’s disappearance, the dazzling golden light in the sky gradually faded, but thunderous clouds still lingered.
Li Chen knew Mo Daoyi had gone to cross the Dao Lord Golden Tribulation, and now it was his turn.
"Brother Li Chen, should I tell him to ease your heavenly tribulation a bit?" Bai Tianyi softly asked Li Chen.
Li Chen shook his head: "No need, I’ll handle my heavenly tribulation myself!"
Li Chen’s heavenly tribulations in the Heaven Realm had been peculiar, with power incrementally terrifying each time.
Back then, Li Chen didn’t know why; later, he realized it might be because the Heaven Realm... lacks the Heavenly Dao.
But here is the Immortal Domain!
"So... come!"
Li Chen let out a long howl towards the sky, grasped the Red Moon, and soared straight into the heavens!
