He originally wanted to go back directly and report the Dongzhou incident to the Palace Master, but he didn't expect that the gap that was originally unobstructed was quietly erased by someone at some point in time.
The way back... is gone.
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost narrowed his eyes and sneered, "What an ignorant young man from Dongzhou! Do you think you can keep me here just because you can influence some aspects of the Heavenly Dao?"
His spirit transformed into a pair of invisible giant hands, manipulating the rules of heaven.
The next moment, the sky above Siji City was suddenly covered with dark clouds, thunder rumbled faintly, and red lightning streaks shuttled through the clouds, appearing and disappearing from time to time.
Li Yu's expression became solemn upon seeing the red lightning snake. He took out a wooden stick and handed it to Xiang Sheng, while hurriedly transmitting a message: "Fellow Daoist Xiang, be careful! This is a common tactic used by the Pantheon, a punishment from heaven! Only the Heavenly Pardon Scraps can counter it."
Xiang Sheng glanced at the Heavenly Pardon Lot, but did not take it.
"Young man, this East Continent is different from the West Continent. The Heavenly Dao is broken and easier to control. Even if you have the Heavenly Dao Pardon Lottery, it is useless!"
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost sneered and waved his sleeves. Thunder exploded in the sky and red lightning as thick as an arm suddenly fell down.
Li Yu's face changed slightly, and he threw the Heavenly Pardon Lottery without saying a word.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three consecutive bolts of lightning landed precisely on the wooden stick, blasting it into powder in the blink of an eye.
Li Yu was shocked and angry.
This old ghost wasn't lying. A single Heavenly Pardon Lottery Slip, in Western Continent, could withstand dozens of Heavenly Punishments, yet in Eastern Continent, it was surprisingly vulnerable.
He immediately took out the second Heavenly Pardon Lot and stood in front of Xiang Sheng, staring at the sky with a cold and solemn expression.
unwise.
If I had known this earlier, I should have picked a few more from my senior brother.
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost glanced at the Heavenly Pardon Lottery, but did not rain down thunder. Instead, he looked down at Xiang Sheng and said in a deep voice:
“Young man, controlling the Heavenly Punishment may be a burden, but with my cultivation, killing you will not be a problem.
How about we both take a step back? I'll spare your life this time, and you open the gap in the Heavenly Dao and let me go back. How about that?"
Li Yu heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Although he wanted to kill this old ghost with a thousand faces immediately, he couldn't do that at the moment. It would be best if they could live in peace.
Just when he thought Xiang Sheng would nod in compromise, Xiang Sheng remained silent. Instead, he turned his head to look at him, smiled slightly, and said, "Friend Li, please step aside."
Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and then his scalp went numb. He hurriedly advised: "Xiang Daoist, that is a punishment from heaven. How can a man defeat heaven..."
"Since Fellow Daoist Li refuses to retreat, we must be careful."
Xiang Sheng interrupted Li Yu and looked up, his smile instantly turning cold. "I've been painstakingly planning for many days just to shut the door and beat the dog. How can I let an old dog like you get away?"
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost laughed angrily, "Okay, very good! Since you're seeking death, I'll grant your wish!"
Boom!
A thunderclap resounded in all directions, and the dark clouds were almost dyed blood-red by the red light, pressing down on the head, making it hard to breathe.
Li Yu's eyelids twitched wildly. He didn't bother to continue persuading Xiang Sheng. He dodged and grabbed Li Changting and retreated frantically.
Crazy!
Does Xiang Sheng even know what he is doing?!
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost is already in the late stage of fusion, with his body and soul becoming one, and it is the time when his spirit and soul cannot leave the body for a long time.
He is trapped in Dongzhou and cannot go back. He will die within three days. By then, this old ghost will go crazy before dying and the world will be destroyed by divine punishment!
Not only Xiang Sheng and them, but all the cultivators and mortals in Dongzhou, every one of them, will die!
When Li Yu thought of this, the thunderclouds in the sky suddenly flashed, and countless red thunders as thick as buckets poured down.
Li Yu and Li Changting looked up and their faces turned pale instantly, with the same thought in their minds.
My life is over!
At this moment, a cold snort suddenly sounded in the ears of the two.
Li Yu subconsciously looked back.
This sight made his eyes widen and his whole body tremble.
Under the layer of red thunder that was about to submerge the ground, Xiang Sheng touched the ground with his feet and rushed into the thunder like an arrow.
The next moment, a burst of clear energy suddenly burst out from his body!
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost was horrified and screamed, "Earth God?! You are actually the body of an Earth God!"
At this moment, he finally understood where Xiang Sheng's confidence came from.
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost had a tragic look on his face. If he had known his identity earlier, he would have chosen to break through the gap in the Heavenly Dao and escape even at the risk of seriously injuring his soul.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.
"Earth God?"
When Li Yu heard the cry of the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost, he was also shocked and dazed.
However, before he could be shocked for long, Li Changting yelled back to his senses, "Uncle Master, stop being stunned, run away!"
Li Yu shuddered when he saw the clear air and the blood-colored thunder in the distance colliding, as if the thunder in the sky ignited the fire in the earth. A destructive white light gradually burst out at the boundary between the two, and his face changed drastically.
"not good!"
In his haste, he only had time to use a black talisman to block the two of them.
Then, there was a loud bang!
The devastating wave instantly submerged everything.
