The people of the governor's manor were all trembling. They stared at their governor, the mysterious governor who rarely appeared before them. However, this didn't affect the respect they had for Qin Wentian. Everything he did before was simply too shocking.
Right now, was this god-like existence going to baptize their hearts once again?
Fighting against the Lifire Empyrean, what did this mean?
Their governor only used a few tens of years to accomplish something many wouldn't be able to accomplish in their entire lives. From the mid-stage of the immortal emperor realm, he stepped into the empyrean realm, becoming an existence on the same level as the Lifire Empyrean. This was too terrifying, simply unheard of.
They couldn't help but to ask themselves, would there still be such a magnificent character in this world? At the very least, they had never seen such a character before.
Not only for the people of the governor's manor, even for those who had already guessed it, when they personally saw Qin Wentian standing in front of the Lifire Empyrean, blocking his attack, their hearts trembled uncontrollably. This scene was truly shocking enough. They didn't dare to imagine, could the talent of a human really be so strong?
Although it was said that stepping into the empyrean realm from the immortal emperor realm depended on one's comprehension, comprehension was far more difficult compared to absorbing astral energy from the heavens and earth. If not, there wouldn't be so many experts stuck at a certain level, unable to advance any further. But when it came to Qin Wentian, they actually felt that there was no bottleneck at all. Beauty Xiao's eyes flashed with a dazzling light as she smiled.
Beauty Xiao's beautiful eyes flashed with a dazzling light as she smiled. Her judgment was truly very good. However, she was also worried. After all, she has been in the Lifire Palace for many years and has never seen the Lifire Empyrean personally fighting against others. The Lifire Empyrean who has been at this level for countless years should be even stronger, right? Would Qin Wentian be in danger?
Great waves rose in the hearts of the Jialan Clan's people. Right now, even they had no way to see through the situation today.
Earlier, the spiritual character of their Jialan Clan, Jialan Jiangshan, was defeated by the Lifire Empyrean. At that instant, they felt as though they had fallen into the abyss, feeling that the Jialan Clan's mission this time around would end in a miserable state. But at this moment, Qin Wentian walked out and displayed his terrifying strength.
In that case, why would Qin Wentian be injured by the Lifire Empyrean's attack earlier?
Why did Qin Wentian directly enter closed-door seclusion after returning to Lifire City? He didn't head to the Lifire Palace as per the imperial edict?
Not only were the people of the Jialan Clan puzzled, Zhuge Xiong was puzzled as well. Many people were feeling puzzled as well. They all thought that Qin Wentian was merely a catalyst. Di Tian only made use of the Lifire Empyrean to deal with Qin Wentian, taking advantage of the Lifire Empyrean's mistake and joining forces with the Jialan Clan to cause the Lifire Empyrean to change the Lifire Empyrean. Qin Wentian wasn't that important.
But was that really the case?
The instant Qin Wentian stepped out, many people's hearts wavered. Didn't Qin Wentian know all this?
Are Di Tian and Qin Wentian working together?
The gazes of everyone turned to Di Tian only to see that the masked Di Tian was still as mysterious as ever. Even the people of the Jialan Clan felt that they couldn't see through him.
This was especially so for the clan leader of the Jialan Clan, Jialan Yuntian. Back then at the grand banquet, he already felt that something was wrong when he saw Di Tian's talent. But after that, Di Tian maintained a friendly relationship with the Jialan Clan and borrowed their strength to establish a foothold in Lifelong City. Hence, Jialan Yuntian felt that Di Tian only wanted to borrow their Jialan Clan's strength.
But today, when he saw this scene, he felt an intense sense of unease in his heart. He felt that something was wrong. This person, Di Tian, was more and more unfathomable to him. Could it be that when Di Tian joined forces with the Jialan Clan, he also had an extraordinary relationship with Qin Wentian?
No matter what everyone was thinking, at this moment, nothing was more important than this battle. Hence, the gazes of everyone were still fixed on the battlefield in the air.
"Back then when I told Zhuge Xiong to inform you to return, you ignored him. Tens of years later when you returned to Lifire City, you directly went into closed-door seclusion, saying that you wanted to break through. But in truth, you have already broken through. Your purpose of doing this should be to lure me here personally, right? In that case, who was it that leaked the secret to you back then?" The Lifire Empyrean stared at Qin Wentian as he asked. He was also shocked in his heart. Qin Wentian had actually reached such a level. This was truly out of his expectations.
He initially thought that in the future, Qin Wentian wouldn't be able to be controlled. This was why he was prepared to act. But who would have thought that the current Qin Wentian was already so hard to control.
Qin Wentian didn't reply. He replied, "I've always abided by my duty, yet palace lord, you want to kill me no matter what. Today, I can only challenge palace lord."
"Abided by your duty?" The Lifire Empyrean coldly laughed. Right now, he could already be sure that the Jialan Monarch had died in the hands of Qin Wentian.
"Let me guess. There are two traitors today, Sun Qian and Beauty Xiao. Sun Qian is Di Tian's subordinate. In that case, the one who informed you should be Beauty Xiao, right? I didn't expect that Beauty Xiao would actually take such a risk for you." The Lifire Empyrean laughed. "Since this is the case, I'll grant the two of you your wish today. You will understand that although both of you are at the empyrean realm, the difference between the empyrean realm and the world overlord realm is extremely vast."
"I'll wait and see." Qin Wentian's white robes fluttered in the wind as the sword qi river around him flowed unceasingly.
Within the Lifire Palace, there were still many lifire dragons flying over, spiraling in the air. The space behind the Lifire Empyrean and above had long been dyed red by lifire, resembling a world of lava. Countless bolts of blood-colored lightning flashed unceasingly, and the lifire dragons continued to roam about in this world of lava, letting out terrifying roars.
The Lifire Empyrean was originally already terrifying enough. Now that he borrowed the power of the Lifire Grand Formation, his aura surged explosively, dominating Jialan Jiangshan. He wanted to tell everyone in Lifire City that in the boundless regions of the Lifire Palace, no one could challenge his prestige.
"BOOM!" Blood-red lightning bolts that resembled doomsday rained down from the sky, exuding malevolence and malevolence, directly slamming into Qin Wentian. However, terrifying spatial law fluctuations radiated from Qin Wentian. When the blood-red lightning bolts descended, his body seemed to be in an independent space. Spatial law light flashed unceasingly and the blood-red lightning bolts clearly rained down on him, yet they didn't manage to touch him.
"Spatial law source origin." Upon seeing this scene, the Lifire Empyrean's heart couldn't remain calm. What Qin Wentian comprehended wasn't merely a single type of law source origin energy, he comprehended multiple types of law source origin energy. Was his cultivation base really only at the mid-stage of the immortal emperor realm during the grand banquet tens of years ago? Although the Lifire Empyrean had personally witnessed it and knew that it was real, he still couldn't help but to ask himself.
Boundless lifire light rained down. The Lifire Empyrean formed a series of hand seals, causing the sky to tremble. A blood-red doomsday lifire palm imprint manifested, containing tens of thousands of dancing dragons, wanting to devour the heavens and earth as it blasted towards Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian's hands moved rapidly, stabbing out with a single finger. His sword was like the wind, the sword qi river transformed into terrifying bolts of lightning that blasted towards the palm imprint. Thunderous rumbling sounds rang out unceasingly, the boundless sword light clashed against the lifire dragons in the palm imprint. However, the empyrean-level palm imprint still continued to descend, bringing with it a world-destroying might that seemed capable of burying everything in this world.
Qin Wentian's expression was solemn, his body radiated boundless light. In an instant, the entire space was illuminated, even more blinding compared to sunlight. Many people couldn't endure the light and closed their eyes. There were some who felt that their eyes were about to be blinded by the blinding light.
The terrifying lifire palm imprint slammed into Qin Wentian. However, amidst the boundless radiance, a buddhist dharma body appeared, opening up a space of its own, unmoving like a mountain.
"BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!" Numerous shocking palm imprints blasted over, unceasingly slamming into Qin Wentian. In the air, countless beams of light shot over, burying Qin Wentian within.
Just when everyone thought that this was merely a pure attack, the terrifying lifire innate technique seemed to have a life of its own. It squirmed unceasingly, transforming into a lifire clone that resembled a lifire divinity, incomparably gigantic and unexcelled in the world. His palm imprint was like a lifire prison, trapping Qin Wentian within.
"Careful, that's his lifire clone. He borrowed the power of the Lifire Grand Formation to activate it, allowing him to use the power of the entire grand formation." Jialan Jiangshan was an old opponent of the Lifire Empyrean. He knew that the Lifire Empyrean had a lifire clone but this was the first time he fought against the Lifire Empyrean in Lifire City. The Lifire Empyrean could directly borrow the power of the Lifire Grand Formation to augment his combat prowess.
The hearts of everyone pounded violently. Qin Wentian also understood why the Lifire Empyrean would be so sure that he had an avatar that killed the Jialan Monarch after Zhuge Xiong spoke of his conjecture.
So it turned out that the Lifire Empyrean himself had also cultivated an avatar technique, the lifire clone. Hence, he believed Zhuge Xiong's words and believed that he had an avatar as well.
Terrifying swords of light appeared in the prison, as well as numerous arms frenziedly smashing out. Qin Wentian unceasingly tried to break out of the prison, but he only saw boundless lava cascading down from the air, wanting to melt the space where Qin Wentian was at. When Qin Wentian's body appeared, his entire person seemed to have transformed into a man made of lava. The lifire clone of the Lifire Empyrean directly grabbed onto him, wanting to refine him to death.
"No matter how high your talent is, you won't be able to escape death today. Also for Beauty Xiao, I will grant her your wish and let her accompany you. Not only for the two of you, all the traitors today shall be executed." The Lifire Empyrean and the lifire clone spoke at the same time, their voices reverberating through the air, causing the hearts of everyone to tremble.
The Lifire Empyrean was the lord of Lifire City. Was there still no one who could challenge his might?
Qin Wentian, this supreme genius, would die here today?!
