He stood before him, sword in hand, as steadfast as a pine tree. Though he was battered and bruised, barely clinging to life, he did not give up. In the final moment, he used the Immortal Locking Formation, which wounded him.
Although his strength had diminished at that time, he still retained half of his power.
But he still couldn't defeat that mortal.
After the young man used the Immortal-Locking Array to bind him, he stood respectfully in front of him, politely calling him "Immortal," and then asked him to leave their country.
Their land needs neither war nor misfortune.
Unable to leave that area, he finally had no choice but to agree to the young man's request and left.
He thought they would never see each other again in this lifetime, but—
In his later years, they met again.
He was sitting in a wheelchair, his face full of wrinkles, thin as a rake, with white hair, and still holding that sharp longsword in his hand.
Time has aged him, but his sword has become sharper and his magic more refined.
The only difference was that there were more Star Mountain disciples following behind him.
He had heard a little about it. He heard that it was because of the battle in which he blocked him that Star Mountain became known to others again. As a result, more and more people joined Star Mountain, and Star Mountain gradually expanded, becoming no different from the original Star Mountain.
He also heard that Star Mountain had suffered a severe blow, and everyone on the mountain had died, leaving only him alive.
He stayed on Star Mountain afterward, serving as its leader, a figurehead.
Of course, that was what he heard at the time; whether it was true or false, he didn't know and didn't want to verify.
At that time, they mobilized as a whole, joining forces with other sects to stop his plan to incite war and create worshippers.
In that battle, he used the Immortal Locking Formation once again.
But that time, he broke the formation.
Unlike when he was young, after breaking the formation, he fell off his wheelchair and died on the spot.
That time, he won, but he also lost.
Few people crave war, and even fewer worship him; he is no match for the major sects.
That's why his plan failed and his power was weakened once again!
The person who proposed that all the major sects unite to stop his plan was none other than the leader of Xingchen Mountain!
That person who sabotaged his plans until his death!
The person who made him realize for the first time that immortals are inferior to mortals!
"I never expected you to be from Star Mountain too!"
"It seems that God wants us to settle both our old and new scores at once!"
Wanyan grinned, a sinister smile playing on his lips, his tone tinged with resentment.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chengdao felt as if he had been hit by something, and his abdomen hurt. He coughed up blood with a "pfft".
Another blow landed on his back.
Even though Wanyan hadn't done anything, it felt as if an invisible hand was slapping him repeatedly.
His bones were broken and his wrist was deformed.
His foot was crushed.
Seeing Li Chengdao's unbearable pain, Wanyan showed no pity and his blows became increasingly severe.
He thought that Star Mountain would disband and disappear after that person died, but he never expected that Star Mountain would continue to this day and still have disciples!
Centuries ago, he thwarted his plans; centuries later, he will destroy Star Mountain!
This person is stubborn, just like their ancestor from Star Mountain. Even though he's injured like this, he still won't let go!
Thinking of what happened hundreds of years ago, Wanyan's hatred deepened, and he became even more ruthless.
He raised his hand and grabbed at the air, forcefully tearing off Li Chengdao's left leg.
Blood gushed out as Li Chengdao's left leg was crushed.
Li Chengdao's face was contorted in pain, but he kept muttering something under his breath.
No matter how Wanyan tried to harm him, he never stopped.
“#￥……*%#%#@#￥@#…………￥#￥@#@” Li Chengdao read aloud.
It wasn't until Li Chengdao became the center of the formation and golden light began to spread outwards that Wanyan realized something was wrong.
He wasn't talking to himself; he was chanting an incantation to activate the formation!
Using itself as the core of the formation, the Immortal Locking Formation also contains other formations!
"Let go!" Wanyan frowned, his previous composure gone.
Li Chengdao's eyes rolled back, his consciousness was already blurred and wandering, but his mouth was still opening and closing as he murmured, and his hands, which were tightly holding Wanyan, never loosened their grip even for a moment.
It was as if stopping Wanyan, delaying time, and chanting incantations had become things he had to do subconsciously.
The laboratory began to shake, the ceiling cracked, and large chunks of rock fell like an avalanche, causing the surroundings to sway.
Wanyan was surprised; he had underestimated Li Chengdao.
He never expected that Li Chengdao would have such methods!
The people of Xingchen Mountain...the people of Xingchen Mountain are really annoying!
Is he destined to be the sworn enemy of the people of Xingchen Mountain?
Wanyan raised her foot and kicked Li Chengdao in the stomach, her expression ferocious. "Let go! I'll make you let go!"
One, two... a dozen times, more and more blood flowed from the corner of Li Chengdao's mouth, but he did not let go.
Elsewhere, Jiang Yuanhao woke up groggily.
Upon seeing the laboratory vibrate, his first reaction was to leave.
Jiang Rentian was deceived, and he was also deceived by those people.
Most of the people in the lab were the same people the boy who suddenly barged in front of him.
That boy even claimed to be the head of the Mysterious Bureau, so wouldn't that mean he was the leader of the Mysterious Bureau?
When he first entered the lab, Jiang Renren introduced him to the experimental team, saying that they had all been by his side since the beginning of the project.
In other words, that young man had placed someone by Jiang Rentian's side more than 30 years ago.
