"Providence?" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly.
Gu Hai looked at the huge grave for a while more before slowly leaving. Although he still did not understand much, Gu Hai already understood the mysteries of providence.
One thought of a person turned into one portion of beneficence. One hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred portions of beneficence turned into one portion of providence. If I were the emperor and had hundreds of millions of citizens, would my citizens continuously produce providence when they feel grateful to me?
Venerable Liu Nian said that providence can establish a sect, a nation, and longevity. As long as my providence is not used up, can I not die?
This time, I have to get to the bottom of this.
Gu Hai slowly walked to a cave. This was the place that Gao Xianzhi said locked up Long Wanqing's servants.
Boom!
With one saber strike, Gu Hai chopped open the door to the cave. Then, he slowly walked in. The Night Pearls illuminated the cave, so Gu Hai quickly reached the end, which was a huge space.
Three Long Wanqing's servants were locked up by a ritual array.
"Gu Hai …?" The three servants showed complicated expressions.
The three servants had listened very carefully to the screams from the outside world, and their hearts had been pounding with fear.
Having been by Long Wanqing's side, they naturally understood Gu Hai. Not long ago, they had seen him break through to the Innate Realm. However, now …
"Boom! Boom!"
Gu Hai struck the ritual array with the Life Ender Saber in his hand. The Life Ender Saber was incredibly sharp, breaking the ritual array in the blink of an eye.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a clear aura came from the three, and the ritual array's energy chains scattered.
"Ah!"
The three's figures swayed, and they fell to the ground.
"Are you alright? Are you all alright? "Gu Hai asked.
"I'm fine. I just don't have the strength. I'll be fine later!" the three servants said bitterly.
"That's good as well. Get up slowly, then. I'll go look for the hall master," Gu Hai said.
The three servants nodded.
Gu Hai left. The three of them looked at Gu Hai's back with complicated expressions.
Gu Hai searched the outside for a moment, and his eyes suddenly narrowed as he cast his gaze toward the exit of the Gold Armor Water Crystal Array.
"Hmm?" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes and walked over.
At this moment, the three servants were much better. They supported each other and slowly walked out of the cave.
Slowly, the three servants walked to the entrance of the cave. As they supported each other, they all widened their eyes and gasped.
"This, this is?" A servant said in shock.
Instead, he saw skeletons scattered all over the mountain peaks.
Countless skeletons were strewn about, covering the mountains and plains. It was like a sea of bones from hell, looking incomparably terrifying.
Hiss!
The three of them sucked in a breath of cold air and did not regain their senses for a long time.
Outside the Gold Armor Water Crystal Array.
Twenty thousand people and hundreds of xiuzhe stared at the formation, but there was no sound from inside the formation.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a loud noise.
"An explosion? Earlier, the mountain peak collapsed and blocked the exit. That was the explosion. What happened inside? "Many xiuzhe showed puzzled expressions.
Flood waters surged everywhere, dark clouds covered the sky, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. The flood dragon and Venerable Liu Nian were still fighting.
"Roar! Old baldy, you are really hard to deal with! "the flood dragon roared furiously.
However, Venerable Liu Nian pressed his palms together and said coldly, "Fu Xue, let me ask you again. What did you do to the hall master? Is she in the First Song Sect? "
As Venerable Liu Nian spoke, he glanced at the nearby ritual array. He had seen Gu Hai enter. However, he did not know how Gu Hai was doing. Venerable Liu Nian turned his head to look at the flood dragon again.
While Venerable Liu Nian and the flood dragon were in a deadlock, a beam of golden light shot over from the south. Song Pingsheng had finally returned with Li Qinghe.
The two stood on a golden circle. At this moment, Li Qinghe sat cross-legged with his snake head exposed. He closed his eyes and regulated his breathing. After all, it had only been a little more than a day. Li Qinghe had not recovered from his injuries yet.
As Song Pingsheng stood on the golden circle, his eyelids suddenly raised.
"Something happened to the First Song Sect?" Song Pingsheng's expression changed.
Li Qinghe immediately opened his eyes.
"Cough! Cough!
Cough! "As Li Qinghe coughed, he stared into the distance." Venerable Liu Nian? So fast? How did he get here so quickly? "
"A flying ship. Venerable Liu Nian has a flying ship, so he is faster than us!" Song Pingsheng said seriously.
"Venerable Liu Nian and Fu Xue?" Li Qinghe frowned.
"It seems like Gu Hai did not come. It does not matter whether he comes or not. He no longer has the three thousand evil men subordinates and the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Ritual Array. He is just an Innate Realm cultivator, "Song Pingsheng said coldly.
"Only Fu Xue and Venerable Liu Nian?" Li Qinghe's eyes lit up.
"We need to keep Venerable Liu Nian here. Since Fu Xue can fight to a deadlock with him, if we make a move …" A ruthless look flashed in Song Pingsheng's eyes.
"Where are the others? Where are your First Song Sect disciples? "Li Qinghe asked, feeling confused.
When he looked around, he did not see any First Song Sect disciples coming to help. Where were they?
The twenty-thousand-odd ordinary people stared at the exit of the Gold Armor Water Crystal Ritual Array. The exit was blocked, and it was silent.
"Why are there so many ordinary people?" Li Qinghe wondered.
Whoosh!
However, Song Pingsheng stepped on the golden hoop and quickly flew over with Li Qinghe. In the blink of an eye, they arrived above the exit. A strong wind blew, and the twenty-thousand-odd ordinary people fell to the ground in a mess.
"Song Pingsheng? The First Song Sect Master! "Someone immediately recognized him.
"Li Qinghe? Li Qinghe turned into a snake-headed demon as well? Ah! "the group of cultivators immediately cried out in alarm.
When an ordinary Innate Realm or Golden Core Realm cultivator turned into a snake-headed demon, they could not deal with it. Li Qinghe was from the Yuanying State.
"Plop!"
A large number of cultivators jumped into the nearby water in horror, wanting to flee.
However, Song Pingsheng showed an anxious expression. He did not care about the cultivators fleeing, as the situation inside the Gold Armor Water Crystal Ritual Array was too strange.
"Bastard! Are they all dead?" Song Pingsheng scolded angrily.
As Song Pingsheng shouted, he waved his hand, and a strong suction force rushed to the entrance of the ritual array.
Rumble …!
The suction force quickly sucked in shattered rocks. Dust and smoke immediately rose. Rumbles rang out endlessly.
On the other side, Venerable Liu Nian and the flood dragon also discovered this scene.
"Hahahahaha! Old baldy Liu Nian, Song Pingsheng is back. Li Qinghe is back as well. Can you still subdue demons?" the flood dragon roared.
Venerable Liu Nian's eyes turned cold. Then, he pinched the Buddhist prayer beads in his hand and flicked them at the sky.
Suddenly, a Buddhist prayer bead flew out of the string of Buddhist prayer beads and soared into the sky. It turned into a gigantic sphere the size of a star, growing increasingly larger as it charged into the churning dark clouds.
Boom!
The Buddhist beads collided with the dark clouds. With a loud boom, the sky was filled with lightning, and the dark clouds were blown away.
"Huh?" The flood dragon's expression changed. "You did not use your full power earlier?"
Venerable Liu Nian revealed a cold smile. "Fu Xue, I gave you a chance. Now, tell me, what happened to the hall master?"
Rumble …!
In the distance, Song Pingsheng sucked in countless shattered rocks, sending dust and smoke everywhere. It didn't take long for the exit to be cleared.
"Where are they? Are they all dead?" Song Pingsheng scolded while glaring.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
When Gu Hai stepped out, everyone stared at him. Even Venerable Liu Nian, who was fighting in the distance, looked over curiously.
At this moment, Gu Hai's clothes were in tatters. Hundreds of wounds covered his body, making him look extremely ferocious. He held a slender bone saber in his hand as he looked coldly at the sky.
"Gu Hai?" Li Qinghe's expression changed.
"Where are my First Song Sect disciples?" Song Pingsheng asked while glaring.
How can it be Gu Hai? How did he come out?
"They are all dead!" Gu Hai revealed a cold smile.
"What?" Song Pingsheng goggled.
Gu Hai turned his head and looked in Venerable Liu Nian's direction. Then, he demanded sternly, "Venerable Liu Nian, are you trying to test my strength, or do you want something else? Right now, the hall master's fate is unknown. Instead of searching for her, you are competing with me, a division master who just entered the hall. What is the meaning of this? Before the hall master's mother died, she asked you to protect her. Is this how you protect her? The Hall Master is in trouble all because of your sudden lapse in defense! Do you still have the energy to deal with the flood dragon? "
"Huh?" Nearly everyone's expression changed.
Gu Hai and Venerable Liu Nian had an internal conflict?
Song Pingsheng and Li Qinghe looked at Gu Hai in confusion.
The flood dragon's face sank.
Venerable Liu Nian also raised his eyebrows.
Gu Hai looked at Venerable Liu Nian coldly and said, "Venerable Liu Nian, there is no need to look at me like that. Am I wrong? Aren't you the one who neglected your duty? You keep mentioning the hall master's maternal grandfather. I don't know who he is, but I believe that he let her go because he knew that you were by her side. You guessed that they would not target her. However, what if something happened to her? How are you going to account to the hall master's maternal grandfather? "
Venerable Liu Nian's expression turned uncertain.
"There is no need to probe me. I killed all five thousand-odd spirit-assimilated cultivators. Now, it is up to you!" Gu Hai said coldly.
"What?" Li Qinghe exclaimed in shock.
"That's impossible!" Song Pingsheng exclaimed.
How could Gu Hai kill so many spirit-assimilated cultivators alone? He no longer had three thousand subordinates.
"With every incense stick's worth of time, the hall master will be in more danger. With every breath, the chances of her dying will increase. Venerable Liu Nian!" Gu Hai said coldly.
Venerable Liu Nian's expression turned unsightly.
Whoosh!
Venerable Liu Nian suddenly shot out the remaining seventeen Buddhist prayer beads in his hand.
Boom!
The seventeen Buddhist prayer beads scattered, surging towards the flood dragon, Song Pingsheng, and Li Qinghe.
"Oh no!"
Song Pingsheng's expression changed, as ten Buddhist prayer beads flew in his direction.
When the Buddhist prayer beads flew out, they suddenly enlarged, looking like ten meteors shooting over.
"Subduing Dragon!" Song Pingsheng extended his hand and sent out the golden hoop under his feet.
"Buzz!"
The golden hoop released a dazzling golden light as it immediately charged over.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out, and an overwhelming storm appeared in the air, sweeping through the surroundings. The seawater soared into the air and turned into a tsunami.
Blargh!
Song Pingsheng vomited a mouthful of blood and immediately moved back. The golden hoop also got knocked back.
Li Qinghe also received a Buddhist prayer bead. It smashed over like a falling star.
"Break!"
Li Qinghe struck with both palms.
Boom!
Li Qinghe's hands exploded. The Buddhist prayer bead's force did not diminish as it continued to charge at Li Qinghe.
"No!" Li Qinghe cried out in alarm.
Boom!
Li Qinghe's body exploded with a loud bang.
Gu Hai's face twitched. Although he had long guessed that Venerable Liu Nian's Buddhist prayer beads were incredible, he did not expect them to be so exaggerated.
Even if Li Qinghe was severely injured, he was still from the Yuanying State. To think that the Buddhist prayer beads could match the impact of Gu Hai's ritual array's halberd.
One prayer bead for one Yuanying State?
Li Qinghe died?
No. What Gu Hai saw was a beam of golden light shooting out from where Li Qinghe's body exploded, heading straight for his still-intact head.
Li Qinghe's body exploded, but his head remained intact. He showed a horrified expression. Li Qinghe's head fell to the ground. Then, he stuck close to the ground and quickly fled.
Playing dead? Fleeing?
The surrounding Buddhist prayer beads surged towards Song Pingsheng and the flood dragon again. It seemed like they did not notice Li Qinghe's head fleeing.
"Where do you think you are going?!"
Gu Hai's eyes turned cold as he quickly gave chase.
Li Qinghe's head did not dare to fly high, fearing that Venerable Liu Nian would discover it. So, he could only stick close to the ground.
"Plop!"
The snake-haired head dove into the water.
"Plop!"
Gu Hai jumped into the water and gave chase.
