He was overjoyed. In front of him was a valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. It was incomparably quiet and overgrown with weeds. Obviously, there was no one here usually. He came without a sound, which was perfect for a sneak attack.
As soon as he thought of this, his expression changed.
Chu Li, Zhou Dunli, and Dong Jianxin stood above the valley, looking down at him with a smile, a mocking smile on their faces.
Just as he was about to speak, Chu Li took a step forward and appeared in front of him. The Heaven Regaining Sword surged toward him like a vast ocean crashing down. He wanted to move but realized that he was powerless to do so.
A strong sense of unwillingness rose in his heart. He still had the time to use his Mystical Arts and the Fused Spirit Sword that he had yet to display. He came here full of confidence. Was he going to die under Chu Li's sword in the end without being able to display one move?
He used his most powerful secret technique to activate his potential, but it was already too late. The sword had already lightly slashed across his neck.
He felt a chill on his neck, and his vision darkened. He was swallowed by the darkness, and he didn't know anything. Everything was over.
Chu Li lightly shook the Sky Regaining Sword and returned it to its scabbard, calm and composed.
He looked at Tang Xu's decapitated body and shook his head emotionally.
The two of them had been entangled for so long, but in the end, he had still killed Tang Xu. He suddenly felt a little melancholy. In the face of life and death, so what if he was a heavenly deity? Even if he defied the heavens and became a deity, he actually wasn't that much stronger than Tang Xu.
"You killed him just like that?" Dong Jianxin pointed to Tang Xu on the ground and looked at Zhou Dunli.
Zhou Dunli's face was ruddy and had already returned to normal. He only sighed, "What a pity!"
After all, he was the ruler of the Fu Dynasty. It was a pitiful ending for him to die with his head separated from his body.
Chu Li smiled. "Master, there's no need to pity such a person. He wanted to destroy Goddess Attraction Mountain and hit us while we were down. If we don't kill him, how can we serve as a warning to future generations? Goddess Attraction Mountain hasn't shown its edge for too long, giving others the impression that we can be bullied."
"Sigh, this time …"
Zhou Dunli sighed and shook his head. Before he could say anything, there was a muffled bang. The golden eggshell suddenly exploded, and twenty Celestials appeared in front of the valley.
There was an old man standing in the air above the twenty Celestials, and he looked somewhat similar to Tang Xu.
Zhou Dunli's expression changed slightly. "Tang Jiyang!"
The old man's ruddy and clean face was tense. He made a hand seal with both hands and shot a stream of spiritual energy toward the corpse on the ground.
The spiritual energy quickly drilled into the corpse, and a moment later, Tang Xu's corpse began to float. Eventually, it turned into a beam of light and shot into the sky.
A door of light slowly opened in the sky, and Tang Xu's figure appeared in front of it. Inside the huge door, one could vaguely see flying eaves, pavilions, and lotus flowers. One could vaguely see heavenly maidens floating gracefully.
Tang Xu looked down at Chu Li. The distance seemed to be unable to obstruct his gaze. Chu Li could read the meaning in Tang Xu's eyes. Tang Xu would wait for him when he reached the Grandmaster's Boundary.
Chu Li shook his head, smiled, and gave a fist salute.
He didn't expect this elder to be so powerful. The Heaven Slaughtering Sword was about to destroy Tang Xu's soul. Just as his soul was about to dissipate, this Tang Jiyang appeared just in time. A streak of spiritual energy healed his soul's injuries, allowing him to ascend to the heavens.
"Tang Jiyang, why did you come down!" Zhou Dunli's expression was solemn. He said slowly, "Aren't you afraid of violating the heavenly rules?"
"Young Zhou, it's not up to you to decide whether I'm violating the heavenly rules or not." Tang Jiyang's cold gaze swept past him, and then fell on Chu Li. "What a vicious child!"
Chu Li gave a fist salute and said nothing.
"Chu Li, this is Tang Xu's great-grandfather." Zhou Dunli said in a low voice, "He's also a powerful figure in the Grandmaster's Boundary. I didn't expect him to descend to the mortal world!"
Chu Li smiled. "Master, are the Celestials descending according to their own will?"
"There's a quota limit," Zhou Dunli said.
"Every sect has a quota?" Chu Li frowned.
Zhou Dunli shook his head. "Based on the merits achieved in the Grandmaster's Boundary."
Chu Li said, "If it's someone like Song Wuji who has achieved great merits, wouldn't he descend whenever he wants? Wouldn't the world be in chaos?"
"There are realms for Celestials too." Zhou Dunli said gently, "For someone of Song Wuji's realm to descend to the mortal world, the merits required are shocking. The gains do not make up for the losses. Unless Great Asura descends, only someone like Song Wuji will descend."
"If that's the case, it's still possible." Chu Li nodded slowly.
Tang Jiyang remained silent, as if he was watching the master and disciple talk coldly. He allowed them to ignore him, and did not seem to be in a hurry to make a move.
Chu Li turned his head and said, "Senior, you must be a very high rank among the Celestials?"
"Tang Jiyang is rank four." Zhou Dunli said, "He's considered a high rank among the Celestials. I didn't expect him to descend to the mortal world. Tang Jiyang, what are you trying to do?"
"What do you think?" Tang Jiyang said, "It's impossible for your master to descend to the mortal world. Young Zhou, just give up."
"You want to destroy Goddess Attraction Mountain?" Zhou Dunli frowned.
"If it were you, would you let go of this opportunity?" Tang Jiyang said, "The Golden Dragon is injured and can't fight. Your master is also heavily injured and won't be able to recover within a hundred years. This is a golden opportunity, so of course I'll destroy Goddess Attraction Mountain!"
"Aren't you afraid of my master and grandmaster seeking revenge?" Zhou Dunli scoffed.
"So what if they seek revenge?" Tang Jiyang laughed coldly. "Do you really think we're afraid of Goddess Attraction Mountain? If it weren't for the Golden Dragon, we would've attacked long ago!"
"Sigh." Zhou Dunli shook his head. "Who said the Golden Dragon is injured?"
"Haha." Tang Jiyang laughed. "Young Zhou, you've learned to do this too!"
Zhou Dunli suddenly let out a long whistle.
The whistle was long and resonated in the sky. It was like a wave slowly spreading out, calm and determined, not letting go of a single spot.
Tang Jiyang frowned.
A dragon's roar came from the sky. Then, a golden light flashed above the clouds. In the blink of an eye, a Golden Dragon shuttled through the clouds and soon arrived.
A huge Dragon Force engulfed the sky and the earth, suppressing everyone present to the point that they could not breathe.
Chu Li took a deep breath. This supreme spirit beast's spiritual force was really overbearing. The Enlightened Master's Field was compressed into a ball and almost returned to his body. Fortunately, he had the Supreme Indestructible Body of Vajra and could calmly stand in place.
He took a step in front of Dong Jianxin and was about to reach out and put his hand on his shoulder to help him resist the Golden Dragon's spiritual force.
However, Dong Jianxin activated the Dragon Taming Technique. The spiritual force turned from pressure to compatibility and enveloped him.
Seeing this, Chu Li also stopped using the Supreme Diamond Supreme Scripture and used the Dragon Taming Technique.
The little beast in the void of his mind suddenly let out a soft whistle. The spiritual force that was approaching Chu Li suddenly shrank and was absorbed by Chu Li. In the blink of an eye, it entered the void of his mind.
The little beast opened its mouth and sucked in the spiritual force of the spiritual force field. The originally dispirited little beast suddenly became energetic.
Chu Li was secretly shocked.
This little beast actually devoured the spiritual force field.
However, when he saw the little Vermillion Bird earlier, its spiritual force field was also very strong, but the little beast did not respond. Could it be that it only devoured the spiritual force field of supreme spirit beasts and was a picky eater?
"How is this possible!" Tang Jiyang's face was gloomy. He stared at the Golden Dragon floating a hundred meters in the void.
Zhou Dunli shook his head and sighed. "Everyone knows that our Goddess Attraction Mountain is protected by the Golden Dragon, but they don't know that there are two Golden Dragons. In the future, there may be three!"
"Impossible!" Tang Jiyang shouted. "How noble and proud are the Golden Dragons? To have one is already a great fortune. How can there be two?!"
