Old Niu sat upright on his throne, his eyes, as large as copper bells, fixed on Li Daozhi's departing figure.
Li Daozhi moved with an elegant and graceful gait, like a white cloud, and then left gracefully after saving the person.
Old Niu's face instantly darkened, and a strong sense of dissatisfaction welled up in his heart.
Now, he has just ascended to the throne of the Heavenly Emperor and is at a crucial moment in establishing his authority.
Originally, the Galactic Emperor was just a tool he used to make an example of someone, but he never expected that Li Daozhi would rescue the person and take him away right in front of him.
If this matter is dropped, wouldn't he, the newly appointed Heavenly Emperor, have no authority whatsoever?
Thinking of this, Lao Niu could no longer suppress his anger. He suddenly stood up and shouted angrily, "You, Li Daozhi, think you can just leave like this? No way! You must give me an explanation!"
Having said that, the old ox took a step without hesitation and instantly appeared above the Cloud Luo Palace.
He raised his head, his gaze sharp as a hawk's. Looking into the distance, he saw Li Daozhi had already transformed into a beam of light and was flying towards the heavens, about to reach the gates of heaven.
A cold glint flashed in the old ox's eyes. Without hesitation, he reached out and unleashed the Divine Power of the Universe in his palm.
In an instant, the entire world was enveloped by his supernatural power, forming a huge world within his palm, trapping Li Daozhi inside.
Li Daozhi realized the situation was dire and inwardly groaned.
He hurriedly took out a precious mirror from his sleeve and shone it into the void.
Old Niu's Palm-of-the-World Divine Power was indeed formidable, but the treasure mirror in Li Daozhi's hand was no ordinary object either. It was called the Heavenly Emperor Mirror, a top-tier innate spiritual treasure containing the mysteries of time and space.
Now, Li Daozhi held the Emperor Mirror in his hand and shone it into the void. A hazy white light immediately shot out from the mirror, directly opening up space and time and connecting the world formed by the universe in the old ox's palm.
The white light flowed and quickly coalesced into a channel connecting the inside and outside.
Li Daozhi lunged towards the passage formed by white light, and was immediately engulfed by the white light, escaping from Lao Niu's palm in a flash.
After regaining his footing, he called out in the direction of the old ox, "Brother Ox! As the saying goes, 'Take a step back and the sea and sky will broaden,' why do you have to be so aggressive!"
Old Niu sneered upon hearing this: "Heh... Taking a step back opens up a vast sky? That's a joke. Haven't you heard that taking a step back is like stepping off a bottomless abyss? The more you endure, the angrier you get."
"Today I have just ascended to the throne of Heaven, yet you show me such disrespect. Why should I show you any mercy?"
Having said that, he rubbed his hands together, and thunderclouds instantly gathered in the void, with lightning flashing. In the blink of an eye, the thunderclouds transformed into a ball of divine thunder that struck straight at Li Daozhi.
The lightning was incredibly swift; Li Daozhi had barely sensed the presence of the destructive aura when the Heavenly Divine Lightning had already arrived above his head.
There was no time for him to dodge. He only had time to turn his mind around, and a beam of immortal light rose from behind him, transforming into a light curtain that opened above his head.
This celestial light is a protective celestial energy that Li Daozhi has refined for hundreds of millions of years. It is formless and ever-changing. As long as one surrounds the body with this celestial energy, one can avoid wind, water, weapons, thunder, and fire, and be invincible from the start.
However, at this moment, facing Lao Niu's Heavenly Thunder, he had no choice but to go all out.
A hazy, ethereal light spread out above his head, resembling a blooming lotus flower, radiating dazzling brilliance.
In the next instant, the lotus flower stirred up towering waves, like a curtain of sky that swept up the heavenly lightning that was cleaving down from the sky.
Amidst the fierce collision of water waves and divine thunder, dazzling lightning and sparks flashed across the sky, resembling a magnificent fireworks display.
However, the entanglement between the two did not last long. After only a few rounds of attrition, the divine lightning was completely worn away.
In the next instant, Li Daozhi unleashed a burst of immortal light, soaring into the sky like a giant dragon once more. His figure moved with lightning speed, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, the old ox immediately leaped up, transforming into a black shadow, and gave chase relentlessly.
Just a few breaths later, Old Niu caught up with Li Daozhi, swung his big stick, and smashed it down on him.
Sensing the threat behind him, Li Daozhi didn't turn around. Instead, he pointed with his hand, and the immortal light surrounding him immediately rushed forward.
The old ox's big club slammed down hard into the misty immortal energy, producing a deafening roar.
With a loud boom, the immortal energy scattered in all directions, like a gust of wind sweeping by.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Daozhi summoned the Emperor Mirror and waved it at the old ox.
In an instant, a mysterious force enveloped the space-time around the old ox, freezing it in place for a moment.
The old ox struggled desperately, but for a moment it was unable to break free of its restraints.
Just then, a graceful and noble female immortal suddenly emerged from the clouds above Li Daozhi's head. She was dressed in magnificent fairy robes, wore a phoenix crown, and had a dignified and beautiful face. She was none other than the former Heavenly Empress.
After the former diva appeared, she pointed downwards, and a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking the old ox like a sharp sword.
A flash of lightning struck, and the old ox trembled violently, nearly falling headlong from the sky.
At the same time, a starlight suddenly rose beside Li Daozhi, and the Milky Way Emperor appeared in that starlight.
The next moment, he endured his injuries and pointed at the old ox from a distance.
boom!
A deafening roar suddenly echoed through the sky.
In an instant, the world changed color, the sun and moon disappeared, and the world was plunged into darkness.
The next instant later, boundless silver light shone from the sky, illuminating the entire world.
In an instant, stars shot down from the sky, carrying immense crushing force, crashing heavily down on the old ox.
At this moment, the space-time around the old ox was frozen, and he had just been struck by a bolt of lightning, leaving his whole body numb and unable to dodge.
A star crashed down and struck the old ox, who groaned and plummeted toward the ground.
Suddenly, a multitude of stars engulfed him.
"Roar!" A moment later, a loud roar rang out. The old ox forcibly steadied himself and swung the big club in his hand, shattering stars one by one, which exploded continuously.
Just then, Li Daozhi, the Empress, and the Milky Way Emperor suddenly appeared from among the stars and surrounded him.
Without saying a word, the three attacked simultaneously, each wielding a celestial sword and charging towards the old ox.
In an instant, three sharp sword lights condensed into a net, immediately engulfing the old ox.
Swish swish swish!
Sword lights swirled endlessly around the old ox.
In just a moment, the protective immortal light surrounding the old ox was completely disrupted, and his physical body would soon be truly exposed to the sword's edge.
At this critical moment.
Hu Le, who was in the Divine Mountain Beyond the Heavens, suddenly took off the Primordial Bell from his waist and casually tossed it into the void...
