"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
Li Changzhou stopped experimenting with the Taoist techniques he had recently learned.
A water-based energy blade extinguished the fire instantly, and the black light shot straight at Zhang Yongxu.
The surging Xuan Shui continuously weakened the Water Element True Blade until it was swallowed up.
Li Changzhou's eyes flashed as he stared at the Xuan Turtle for a couple more moments. Without turning his head, he unleashed an apricot-yellow earth-elemental energy blade that struck the ruler that suddenly emerged from the sea of clouds.
The ruler struck so hard that its light scattered, and with a tremor, the figure of a lawyer from the Dragon Gate Sect vaguely appeared, almost separating the person from the ruler.
"What a powerful Five Elements Qi Blade!" The lawyer from the Dragon Gate Sect took a deep breath, suppressed his surging magical power, and once again merged with the ruler, disappearing into the sea of clouds.
"Li Changzhou, today is your death day!" Thunder God roared, and three more birds flew out from the Seven Birds Blade, merging into the Thunder Hammer and Electric Chisel.
The lightning began to go out of control, and the Thunder God appeared and disappeared intermittently, seemingly unable to hold onto the Thunder Hammer and Electric Chisel that possessed the power of the Seven Birds.
The leader of the White Lotus Sect suddenly stepped down from his lotus throne, took the electric chisel, and pointed the chisel tip at Li Changzhou.
Just as Li Changzhou was about to leave, the lotus throne suddenly rose into the air from the sea of clouds, drawing up streaks of clouds.
A lotus throne hung in the air, enveloped by Buddhist light and the voices of the people, fixing Li Changzhou in a certain world.
Lei Gong, the god of thunder, raised his arms high, gripped the thunder hammer tightly, and was enveloped in lightning.
Li Changzhou sensed danger.
With his hands outstretched at 120 degrees, they suddenly crossed, unleashing a simultaneous clash of water and fire blades that clashed in mid-air, unleashing even more ferocious power.
Boom!
Amidst the deafening roar of water, the Xuan Turtle unleashed a ball of mysterious water, nearly extinguishing the Water and Fire Twin Blades.
Another flash of light from the ruler, and the power of the Water and Fire Twin Blades was reduced to only a quarter.
"ah!
"!" Lei Gongshen began to pull the thunder hammer he held high.
Like a meteorite, the thunder hammer generates endless light and heat through friction in the atmosphere.
The primordial spirit of the White Lotus Holy Mother, the leader of the White Lotus sect, even faintly dissipated under this powerful force, but she firmly gripped the electric chisel in her hand.
Peng!
The lightning hammer struck the electric chisel.
boom!
The power of the Thunder God and the divine power of the Seven Birds merged into one, and with lightning speed, it violently pierced towards Li Changzhou under the lotus throne from the chisel tip, destroying the heavens and the earth.
The seven-colored light, accompanied by lightning, had not yet subsided when Li Changzhou was already experiencing needle-like pain all over his body, as if he could be turned into dust at any moment, or like an eel nailed to a chopping board waiting to be slaughtered.
He roared to the sky, and the three thousand instincts of the Holy Master converged, transforming into annihilating divine light in his palm.
He clenched his fist, and the annihilating divine light transformed into a long spear.
Pulling his arm back, all his divine power immediately exploded in his elbow.
"Go!" With a roar, the Annihilation Divine Light crashed into the Seven-Colored Light.
A clash of titans.
boom!
The sea of clouds exploded and dispersed, and the Bohai Sea directly below seemed to be pressed down by an invisible giant hand, causing towering waves to rise into the clouds.
Huge waves crashed into the coastal areas, triggering a catastrophic tsunami.
At the very center of this force, a group of cultivators nearing the Immortal Realm were transformed into ordinary people, facing a typhoon powerful enough to blow their bodies away.
Her clothes clung to her body, her hair danced wildly, and the flesh on her face was distorted.
Even the black tortoise raised its forelimbs to block its path.
Once the aftershocks subsided, both Thunder Blade Heavenly Lord and the White Lotus Sect Leader had revealed their true forms.
"You won?" The Dragon Gate Sect lawyer hovered beside them in the form of a ruler.
The White Lotus Sect leader emitted a golden light from the lotus flower between his brows, scanning the world and saying, "If we kill all of these—"
boom!
Dark clouds gathered again.
Li Changzhou stepped out of the eighteenth level of hell, flew out of the dark clouds, and hovered under the blue sky.
The leader of the White Lotus sect stared in disbelief at the Tongue-Pulling Hell, Scissors Hell, Iron Tree Hell, Steaming Cage Hell, and Mountain of Knives and Sea of Fire.
"The eighteen levels of hell?!"
Li Changzhou let out another long howl.
Hundreds of beasts emerged from the sea of clouds. These wild animals, demons, and strange creatures were bound by chains, and their power was extracted and poured into Li Changzhou's body.
Lightning struck from the sky, healing Li Changzhou's injuries;
The Taotie roared and burst out of the void;
The Emerald Bee Sword shot out from his sleeve and landed in Li Changzhou's hand.
With hell beneath one's feet, gods above one's head, hungry ghosts clearing the way, the animal realm behind one's back, and the Asura and human realms blessing one's body.
"Practicing the Six Paths of Reincarnation?! Li Changzhou, do you really think you're the Heavenly Emperor?!" Thunder Blade Heavenly Lord was both terrified and furious.
He formed hand seals, summoning heavenly lightning once more. He opened his mouth and inhaled, his entire body radiating boundless white light. A three-hundred-meter-tall Thunder God rose from his body.
The leader of the White Lotus Sect clasped his hands together, revealing the primordial spirit of the White Lotus Holy Mother.
With a buzzing sound, the ruler grew to an enormous size, like a ruler used to discipline heaven and earth.
Zhang Yongxu stood up, his body dissipating into a giant black snake that coiled around the Xuan Turtle's body.
Li Changzhou's gaze was icy, his feet treading on the eighteenth level of hell, his head struck by divine lightning, and he held the Emerald Bee Sword as he charged forward.
