The sound of thunder could be heard as the rain started to fall. There was no one else in the forest, only Pei Zi Yun. He released his horse and rode through the forest. He circled a small hill and saw an old temple. The door to the temple was still standing, but the walls had collapsed.
When Pei Zi Yun reached the altar, he saw that there were several wooden fences stacked together. He didn't even need to use a match. With a wave of his hand, a bonfire was lit.
Cough, cough!
As soon as he moved, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and his internal organs were affected. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, which fell to the ground and formed a black blood clot.
'The Imperial Qi has taken a huge toll on me. King Lu's destiny, and even after transforming into a demon, I didn't expect the backlash to be so severe. The heavens are truly biased. ' As he spoke, Pei Zi Yun felt an itch in his throat. He coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood. Only then did his breathing become smoother.
Just as he was thinking about this, he felt his body sinking. A powerful suction force was pulling him over.
King Lu's Paradise, Reincarnation Platform
Boom!
The blessed land was shaking. Cracks appeared on the ground, and the demonic aura dispersed. The faces on the demonic trees were filled with fear, and the skeletons swaying between the branches were bumping into each other uneasily.
The palace similarly collapsed. Waves of thunder sounded in the sky, and the blood pond was boiling. Layers of dark clouds condensed in the sky. Lightning shuttled back and forth, making people's hearts tremble.
Ka!
The sound of thunder exploded in the Underworld Earth, causing everyone's hearts to tremble. Under the influence of this, cracks appeared on the Reincarnation Platform. Following the sound of thunder, the cracks grew longer and longer, and the speed at which it collapsed also increased.
"Heavenly Tribulation, it's Heavenly Tribulation. King Lu has failed as well. It seems like he has been swallowed by the source of the world."
The lonely scholar seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time. He seemed to have lost his soul, and two streaks of bloody tears flowed down his cheeks. Suddenly, he waved his hand and forcefully activated the Reincarnation Platform. "I was once authorized, and I can control it now. For the demon race, what is my life worth?"
The scholar placed his hand on the Reincarnation Platform. "Go."
The Reincarnation Platform rumbled, producing a powerful suction force. It sucked the blood from the lake and turned it into mist, bathing the tens of thousands of statues.
"Go, hide in this world. Perhaps after a few generations, you will forget about the Demon Race. But it doesn't matter. Wait for our Demon Race to produce another Demon Emperor, then you will all awaken and rise to power."
"We've swept through many worlds, it's not like we haven't encountered such a situation before, but we will definitely emerge victorious."
As the blood mist poured into the statues, the demonic spirits awakened one by one. At this moment, their eyes were clear as they looked at the scholar. They bowed to the scholar and turned into light spots that flew away.
"Come, let me see the wrath of this world. Our demon race will rise in the end." The scholar had already turned into a statue. He used the last of his strength to welcome the lightning and shouted, "Come!"
A bolt of lightning exploded, but it wasn't a bolt of lightning that fell. Instead, it was a silhouette. It was a young man, surrounded by a golden glow. It was Pei Zi Yun.
Boom!
Pei Zi Yun's body was covered with a layer of brass, as though he was carrying a heavy burden. Although his body was light and graceful, every step he took left a deep imprint on the ground.
In the skies, a demonic dragon was circling in mid-air. Clouds and air pressure weighed down on Pei Zi Yun, and lightning could be seen flashing across the skies.
Zizi!
"Hmph, at this stage, the Great Xu Dynasty's Imperial Envoy and the Rebel King have joined forces to deal with me?" Pei Zi Yun could see clearly that the two balls of Imperial Qi were supporting the demonic dragon. He then grunted coldly.
"Rebel, go to hell!" The Flood Dragon clawed down at Pei Zi Yun. Pei Zi Yun's body shone with a metallic glow as he punched out.
"Boom!" The air rumbled as lightning flashed. Following the roar of the dragon, the Flood Dragon was enraged and slammed down viciously. It coiled around Pei Zi Yun's body, as though it was both real and illusory. The trees and shrubs around him were blown away by the wind, as green smoke rose from them.
Pei Zi Yun's body shone with a metallic glow. He was only relying on his Cast Iron Bronze to defend himself. Every time the Imperial Qi clawed at him, sparks flew everywhere.
"Boom!"
Pei Zi Yun's fist landed on the Flood Dragon, causing it to disperse slightly. However, it was enraged and bit down on him. Pei Zi Yun's Daoist robe was torn apart, and his metallic skin was torn apart. Claw marks and teeth marks appeared on his skin.
"Go to hell!" Pei Zi Yun punched out again and again. His Cast Iron Bronze body was able to hit the Imperial Qi in mid-air, causing waves of wind to blow up.
"You've already lost your country, and you still want to wreak havoc? Go to hell! "
After an unknown period of time, Pei Zi Yun reached out and grabbed hold of the Flood Dragon. He then tore it apart viciously. The Flood Dragon had long lost its luster, and could no longer hold on. With a loud wail, it was torn apart.
The Dragon's head was still roaring, "I am the Dragon of the Xu Dynasty. You dare to kill me, and the Imperial Envoy. You have already committed a crime against the Xu Dynasty, and against the heavens."
"It's still making a ruckus!" Pei Zi Yun's body was riddled with wounds. With a wave of his hand, his wounds healed. At the same time, a Plum Blossom appeared, and the Flood Dragon disappeared.
Following the disappearance of the Flood Dragon, the entire Paradise started shaking. Pei Zi Yun looked around and saw the Reincarnation Platform. The Reincarnation Platform was about twelve meters tall, and its pillars were extremely majestic.
He then leaped up and landed in front of the Reincarnation Platform. He saw a statue of a scholar. Just as he was about to take a closer look, he felt a strange force trying to penetrate into his body. A voice rang out. At first, it was very soft, but gradually became clearer and louder. It sounded like thunder, "Demon race, demon race, demon race!"
It was as if the entire space was filled with this voice. After a few seconds, Pei Zi Yun shouted, "System!"
Following his call, a Plum Blossom appeared in front of him. It grew bigger and bigger until it became a translucent information interface. It floated in front of him, and a string of words appeared before his eyes.
"Mission: Kill King Lu and take over the Reincarnation Platform (Completed)"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes!"
Pei Zi Yun was sure. All of a sudden, a Plum Blossom opened up. At first, it was only the size of a palm, but it grew bigger and bigger, almost enveloping the entire Reincarnation Platform.
Following this, the Reincarnation Platform started to shake, as if it was struggling to break free.
"No!" The Reincarnation Platform lit up with a blinding light. In the next moment, a three-faced giant appeared. At the next moment, all sorts of divine powers were unleashed. However, the resistance was futile. The light from the Plum Blossom caused it to break apart, just like the last time.
As it broke apart, the Reincarnation Platform became smaller and smaller, until it was only the size of a palm. The Plum Blossom swallowed it whole, and floated in mid air.
The Plum Blossom was originally only a short branch, but it started to grow longer. It was three feet long, and looked extremely energetic.
"Is this an evolution?" Pei Zi Yun stared at it in shock. All of a sudden, the Plum Blossom shrunk back into the space between his eyebrows. It then turned into a translucent information interface, and floated in front of him.
"Mission of this world completed. Leave this world within three years and enter the next world. Countdown begins!"
"Wait!" This was completely out of his expectations. Just as Pei Zi Yun shouted out, his vision turned dark and bright again. He had already entered the dimension.
As soon as he entered the dimension, he saw that the dimension had expanded once again. A huge hall had already taken shape in the center of the dimension. There were many beasts carved onto the pillars, as well as all sorts of plants. In the middle of the hall, there was a throne with a crown on it. It was extremely majestic.
The statues were lined up in a row, surrounding the entire hall. Soon, there were hundreds more statues. At this point, the entire dimension and the hall started to shake. A demonic dragon roared, and King Lu's face could be seen, "I am the son of King Xu. You dare to kill me and imprison me?"
"Traitor!" Two balls of Imperial Qi appeared as well, as they berated him.
As they berated him, a huge amount of pressure pressed down on him. Pei Zi Yun felt as if he couldn't breathe properly, as if his chest was being blocked.
Before he could finish speaking, a blade of wind sliced through the air. The demonic dragon's blood splattered all over the place, before dissolving into spiritual Qi.
The demonic dragon's wound started to heal, but the blade of wind continued to fly out. The demonic Qi continued to be absorbed, as more and more pillars appeared around the palace.
"Cough cough."
Pei Zi Yun took in a deep breath, as spiritual Qi continued to flow into his body. A cooling sensation spread throughout his body, nourishing him.
Pei Zi Yun regained his senses and shouted, "System!"
As he called out, a Plum Blossom appeared in front of him. It grew bigger and became a translucent information interface. It floated in front of him, as the numbers appeared before him.
"Earth Immortal: Seventh Level (15.9%)"
"Hu!"
"The backlash from the Imperial Qi was so strong that it exceeded my expectations."
"I can't even withstand the backlash from the seventh level. I have to level up once more."
"However, I've sacrificed seven thousand soldiers, killed hundreds of Demon Generals, and even killed King Lu. I've accumulated a large amount of resources, and it's only a matter of time before I level up."
Just as he was thinking about this, he felt a warning in his heart. His body trembled as he returned to the dilapidated temple. When he woke up, he shouted, "Who's there?"
As Pei Zi Yun spoke, his body flickered as he flew out of the temple like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. He then dashed towards a direction. This place was covered with trees and bushes. There were even vines and thorns all over the place. There were even several Snake Berries on the ground, which were bright red.
Pei Zi Yun pounced forward, and could only see a corner of his robe. The next moment, he disappeared. The bushes were in front of him, and Pei Zi Yun sliced them apart with his sword.
"No one? How is that possible? " Pei Zi Yun looked around, and could only see a patch of bushes. There was no one there. "Is there anyone who can hide from me?"
When he looked around again, he noticed that the bushes had covered half of his vision. The ground was covered with thorns and vines. The bright red Snake Berries were still in good condition, and there was no trace of them at all.
"Something's not right." Pei Zi Yun looked around, and stretched out his finger to touch the thorns of the vines. He noticed that there was a thread of velvet on the thorns of the vines. If he didn't look closely, he wouldn't be able to see it clearly. Pei Zi Yun stretched out his finger to feel it, and his expression changed, "This Qi is unfathomably deep, and extremely pure."
"What's this?"
Pei Zi Yun frowned, his heart was filled with shock. He then thought to himself, 'Among the Daoist sects, there aren't many Earth Immortals left. With Cheng Yuan Zi as the leader, there shouldn't be any other Daoist who can surpass me. Even if there is, it would only be the Earth Immortals!'
"Which Daoist has this Qi? Could it be … a Dao Monarch?"
"However, this Qi doesn't seem right. It's too faint." As he thought of this, he frowned. He paced several steps before his eyes revealed a cold look, "Since that's the case, I shall not hold back!"
