Chapter 422: Chapter 332: Arranging the Formation with Divine Origin_2
Qi Jingtian looked at the darkness in the distance and sighed, "The Emperor's Perishing No Return Domain is actually the true body of our predecessor. A billion years ago, a cataclysm descended, and over ninety Divine Emperors joined forces to combat it. It was with a cost of nearly complete destruction and loss of life that they managed to expel the calamity."
"What calamity?" The Mole asked curiously.
Qi Jingtian shook his head, "The predecessor's inheritance didn't specify, but I guess it must have been a powerful enemy! During that battle, these godly predecessors used their own lives to protect the Divine Realm, and because of the fight, the battlefield turned into the Emperor's Perishing No Return Domain we see today."
The Mole's eyes lit up, "Does that mean, there should be over ninety Divine Origins here?"
Qi Jingtian took out twelve and shook his head, "There might be, but they were almost certainly taken away by later generations. There are twelve in the Divine Palace, and nine within this protecting great array."
Saying this, Qi Jingtian handed those twelve Divine Origins to Li Cheng, "Master, please handle these Divine Origins."
Li Cheng didn't stand on ceremony, "Focus on your cultivation, and when you leave the seclusion, come directly to Mansion Venerable City to find me. By that time, your brothers should have all ascended!"
After giving instructions, Qi Jingtian respectfully bowed and then retired back into the Divine Palace.
Li Cheng called to Er Shou, "Stop looking, let's go, we should return as well!"
Glancing in the direction the arrow pointed, Li Cheng directed the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle on the path, while he himself took out all the thirteen Divine Origins.
The Divine Origins varied in strength and the Laws they contained. Li Cheng put away the others and only kept one with a complete Space Law to start his enlightenment.
[Current remaining Enlightenment uses: 1462 times.]
After ten years of previous Enlightenment, the remaining uses weren't many!
It took over ten years to come here, but most of that time was spent treasure hunting. Now with so many Divine Origins, why would he settle for ordinary treasures?
So, on the way back, letting the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle fly with full force, Li Cheng merely corrected the direction from time to time.
[Current remaining Enlightenment uses: 367 times.]
Three years passed, and only three hundred sixty-seven Enlightenment uses were left, but the progress in the Space Law was apparent, reaching over nine hundred million threads.
After adjusting the direction of the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle again, Li Cheng clasped his hands together, pressing on the Divine Origin, and started to absorb the Divine Power within.
After an unknown amount of time, the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle suddenly stopped, "Boss, it seems we've been targeted!"
Li Cheng slowly opened his eyes, almost making the breakthrough to Divine Venerable!
Ahead, the space crack was visible, clearly entering within a million miles of the fissure.
But the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle was right; they had been watched!
Even without using his Divine Sense, Li Cheng could detect the aura of the fourteen Divine Venerables from thirty years ago. In addition, there were at least three hundred Divine Emperors in this area, searching meticulously.
"Thirty years have passed, and the people of Ten Thousand Gods Mountain haven't retreated. Instead, they called even more to guard this place. Something's not right," Li Cheng said.
"Is it possible that Ten Thousand Gods Mountain knows that there was a Divine Origin inside the original divine mountain and are therefore lying in wait at all costs?" the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle suggested.
Waiting thirty years like guarding a stump for a rabbit for a single Divine Origin? Three hundred million years would be worth it!
"It's just the right time to probe the depths of Ten Thousand Gods Mountain. I want to see if these three hundred Divine Emperors are from Ten Thousand Gods Mountain and if, like those Divine Venerables, they're demons occupying human bodies," Li Cheng said, and put away Er Shou. He stepped forward and headed straight for the entrance.
"He's found us and is trying to rush through the entrance, stop him!"
In that moment, waves of Divine Sense stirred, quickly spreading amongst everyone from Ten Thousand Gods Mountain. Suddenly, three hundred Divine Emperors rushed towards the entrance, and the fourteen Divine Venerables at the entrance also prepared to move at any moment!
Li Cheng deliberately slowed down to allow the Divine Emperors to approach, also waiting for those fourteen Divine Venerables.
The fourteen Divine Venerables had already restored their human forms; there was no outward sign of anything amiss. Four guarded the entrance, while ten charged towards Li Cheng.
With so many Divine Emperors and Venerables rushing in, Li Cheng wasn't alarmed but rather delighted, "You'll soon understand what goes around comes around!"
With his cultivation fully complete in the Divine Emperor Realm and over nine hundred million threads of Space Law, Li Cheng was confident he could annihilate all these people from Ten Thousand Gods Mountain!
No, he would subdue them all and take them back for Alchemy!
As the nearest ones entered his ten thousand-mile range, Li Cheng clenched his fists, and his Law Domain suddenly expanded a hundred thousand miles!
This range enshrouded everyone, except the four guarding the entrance!
Once inside the Domain, Li Cheng didn't hesitate to collapse it while the nine hundred million threads of Space Law surged, desperately compressing and freezing the space!
In the blink of an eye, the three hundred and ten people became like statues, completely unable to move!
Even the ten Divine Venerables were no exception!
Following that, Li Cheng took out nine Divine Origins!
Seeing the Divine Origins, the Divine Emperors were perplexed, but the ten Divine Venerables widened their eyes in disbelief.
Hadn't they been guarding this place for thirty years precisely for the Divine Origin?
But who could have imagined that there were more than one Divine Origin?
In their shock, Array Patterns surged around Li Cheng, and in an instant, the nine Divine Origins were drawn by the Array Patterns to form a grand array!
The grand array expanded, enveloping everyone inside, and then contracted, shrinking to the size of a palm and falling into Li Cheng's hand.
All three hundred and ten people were suppressed within the array!
At the entrance, the four people only sensed that Li Cheng had used his Domain, and they remained vigilant, ready to prevent his escape.
But in a few breaths, Li Cheng had already withdrawn his Domain, and to their astonishment, all the people of Ten Thousand Gods Mountain had vanished!
"What's going on? So many Divine Emperors, and ten early-stage Divine Venerables, just disappeared?"
"They couldn't have been suppressed by him, could they? No, that's not right, thirty years without a trace, could it be that his Cultivation... Eh? Divine Emperor Complete!"
"Be careful, Li Cheng now gives me an extremely dangerous feeling..."
Before the words were finished, the four felt a tightening around them, and the terrifying power of Space Law suppressed them on the spot!
Li Cheng's figure appeared, collecting them one by one into the grand array.
After doing this, Li Cheng stepped through a spatial rift.
Outside the spatial rift, there had been no change in thirty years, with Cultivators still seated on the ground everywhere, waiting for opportunities to fly out from the spatial rift.
But clearly, nothing had flown out from the spatial rift in these thirty years.
Li Cheng sensed around and, not finding any Divine Venerable-level beings, headed towards Mansion Venerable City.
Between the seventy-two Earth Sha Cities and the thirty-six Heaven Gang Cities, Mansion Venerable City was as desolate as ever. The arrival of Li Cheng was immediately noticed by Blunt Empty Venerable.
Li Cheng had just stabilized his form when Blunt Empty Venerable appeared before him, exclaiming in astonishment, "In thirty years, you've actually reached Complete in the Divine Emperor Realm!"
Blunt Empty Venerable could not help but be shocked. He considered his own talent to be quite remarkable, but he had spent tens of millions of years evolving from a Heaven God to a Divine Venerable, and then cultivated in the Divine Venerable Realm for over a hundred million years.
And Li Cheng, in just how short a period, was already on the verge of stepping into the Divine Venerable Realm!
Li Cheng took out the grand array and held it in his hand, "Uncle Master, there's something very bad!"
Blunt Empty Venerable looked at the grand array in Li Cheng's hand, his eyes gradually widening, "An array formed with Divine Origin..."
He was stunned.
Li Cheng quickly said, "Uncle Master, that's not the main point. The main point is the people inside, they are from Ten Thousand Gods Mountain."
Blunt Empty Venerable steadied his spirit, striving not to be drawn by those Divine Origins, and nodded, "Ten Thousand Gods Mountain, a major force that has risen in the last hundred million years, is very strong. You've suppressed so many people from Ten Thousand Gods Mountain... actually, you don't need to worry!"
"In the Divine Realm's one hundred and eight mansions, it is the Divine Court that holds dominion. No matter how strong Ten Thousand Gods Mountain is, they are but ants before the Divine Court."
Li Cheng was speechless. Blunt Empty Venerable had obviously misunderstood, thinking that what Li Cheng referred to as something very bad, was his suppression of these people from Ten Thousand Gods Mountain.
It was his own fault for not being clear.
After composing himself, Li Cheng said, "Uncle Master, please look!"
As he spoke, Li Cheng activated the grand array, that immediately generated an attack and beheaded one of the people inside.
Upon seeing this, Blunt Empty Venerable was rendered speechless, "Although I said that Ten Thousand Gods Mountain is no more than ants before the Divine Court, if you've caused a big issue, it won't end well... Huh?"
The next second, Blunt Empty Venerable's brows furrowed, because he saw that from the body of the person who was beheaded in the array, a Demon of Divine Venerable Realm emerged!
"Is it the same with the other people?" Blunt Empty Venerable understood the severity of the situation that Li Cheng mentioned and quickly asked.
Li Cheng looked at the people within the array, "I can confirm that fourteen people are like this, for the other three hundred individuals, it's not clear yet. Shall we perform beheadings to test?"
Blunt Empty Venerable's expression darkened slightly, he shook his head, "No need. This matter is of great significance. Ten Thousand Gods Mountain must be eradicated swiftly!"
"Come with me. This matter must be reported to the Divine Court. All one hundred and eight domains should take action!"
