Chapter 148 The destiny is not to be feared

The Tianxuan ruins, with thousands of mountains like a dragon, lush vegetation, ancient and primitive scenery, presents a wild and ancient land.

The towering mountains look like giant dragons lying across the earth, and the flowing waterfalls look like crystal clear ribbons decorating the mountains and the earth.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged like a tide, and the dragon veins of the earth were steaming. Under the shining moonlight, it scattered colorful divine light, making the entire ancient land exceptionally beautiful.

Miraculous birds and beasts make their homes here, and exotic flowers and plants grow here, adding countless vitality and vigor to this land of Tenglong.

Under the moonlight at night, the pristine forest should have entered a period of sleep, but the arrival of a group of monks destroyed the tranquility of the night.

A group of monks surrounding the ruins were like a swarm of locusts, picking up rare flowers and plants, scaring away birds and beasts, and causing chaos within a thousand miles.

Li Zhi, who was sitting cross-legged in the giant bluestone coffin, could clearly sense all the changes within a radius of a thousand miles.

The sarcophagus is connected to the dragon veins of the earth, and can feed back everything around it into his mind in the first instant.

Eight thousand three hundred and sixty-two cultivators surrounded the central sacred land of Tianxuan Holy Land, where dragon veins were rich.

Wherever they passed, magical birds flew and exotic beasts ran, but none of them could escape the fate of being captured.

It seemed as if six thousand years had passed and the sacred land of Tianxuan had once again encountered a catastrophe.

Li Zhi's Feng Shui skills have not yet reached the level of a grandmaster, so he cannot control the dragon veins to assist in combat. However, he can sense all changes around him through the dragon veins of the earth.

One could even hear the conversations between the monks who had gathered around.

"Fellow Daoists from the Wind Clan, have you found anything over there?"

"We didn't find anything. I don't know how that little Taoist priest hid himself without leaving any trace."

"That little Taoist priest must have some valuables on him, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to avoid our carpet search."

"Does he really have the elixir of immortality?"

"Fellow Daoists from Daoyi Holy Land, have you ever seen the immortality elixir on him? It is said that the roots of the immortality elixir he auctioned in the Holy City have already taken root and sprouted."

"We only heard about this recently. The young Taoist priest did not bring the roots of the immortal medicine back to the holy land."

"Fellow Daoists from Daoyi Holy Land, can you tell us what kind of treasures that young Taoist priest stole from your holy land? Could it really be the legendary Tianzun Ancient Scripture?"

"actually."

Li Zhi heard a lot of news related to him, and even felt like he was being investigated, as if those people had really opened his trouser pockets to see what treasures he had.

Li Zhi once again had that strange feeling in his mind: "There is no secret in the world that is unknown to passers-by."

It seems that these passers-by with supernatural powers are all fortune tellers who can calculate everything in the world.

As the encirclement became smaller and smaller, the frequency of exchanges between the cultivators of the major forces increased, and Li Zhi also heard many things that he had never known before.

Although he heard a lot of gossip, it did not affect Li Zhi's mind.

At this moment, he was sitting in the huge sarcophagus, quietly waiting for the arrival of the monks.

Sure enough, the giant sarcophagus that was three meters long, such a conspicuous target, was soon discovered by some monks.

Someone immediately reported the matter to the powerful people standing high in the sky.

The eight powerful beings stretched out their divine thoughts, which could reach thousands of miles away, and instantly locked onto the giant sarcophagus lying in the pit.

There seemed to be mysterious Taoist patterns on the sarcophagus that blocked the detection of divine thoughts. It could be seen with the naked eye, but if scanned with divine thoughts, it would be considered as one with the surrounding rocks.

By now, the encirclement had been reduced to an area of ​​500 miles in radius.

It almost reached the outer area of ​​the core palace complex of the former Tianxuan Holy Land.

Immediately, a powerful person ordered those cultivators to plant the formation flags on the spot and stop reducing the encirclement of the formation. Because there are still powerful Dao patterns engraved on the foundations of various buildings in Tianxuan Holy Land, which will cause flaws in their hastily arranged formation.

This move surprised the casual cultivators who were watching the fun outside.

"Have those big forces found that little Taoist priest?"

"I must have found it, otherwise why would they stop?"

"Let's go and have a look too."

"Don't you see that there are disciples from powerful forces guarding each formation flag? How can we get through?"

"There's a formation blocking us, so we can't see what's going on inside. Are you willing to accept that?"

"Wait a minute, I always feel that the little Taoist priest is not simple, he will not easily sit there and wait for death, there will definitely be something interesting to watch soon."

"Hehe, I'm afraid that the major forces will suffer a great loss this time, and some people may even die."

People who like to watch the fun never think the conflict is too big, and they even worry that the conflict is not intense enough.

At the place where nine dragon veins converge, in front of the giant bluestone coffin, all eight powerful men came here.

Looking at the huge bluestone coffin which was not very solid, no powerful person was willing to open it and take a look.

Because this action is really too weird, who would lie in a coffin for no reason?

All the monks from other places also flew over.

Soon, the mountains surrounding the giant bluestone coffin were filled with people.

As if seeing that everyone was present, a Taoist chant suddenly sounded from within the giant bluestone coffin.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord!"

The grand voice, mixed with a calming power, made them all stop whispering.

Then, Li Zhi, dressed in a purple Taoist robe, opened the coffin lid and walked out.

"He is the Little Heavenly Venerable, and he is so cute." After seeing the elegant Li Zhi, some female disciples in the crowd whispered to their companions.

"This little Tianzun doesn't look like a bad guy. Did he really steal the treasure of Daoyi Holy Land?" Some people are purely based on appearance. Whoever looks good represents the side of justice.

This caused the ugly disciples around them to glare at them.

After a quick glance at the crowd, he saw that a total of 7,312 people from various major forces had arrived nearby.

The people leading the group were eight powerful men who had appeared in front of Doctor Wang’s thatched cottage.

The place where they stood was less than three hundred steps away from Li Zhi.

For monks at this level, it is almost no different from a face-to-face encounter.

"You're here." Li Zhi spoke first, as if chatting about family matters, not worried about his situation at all.

Seeing this, the great being of Daoyi Holy Land said, "My dear Changshou, as long as you are willing to return to the Holy Land with me, I will forgive you for your mistakes because you are young."

Without waiting for Li Zhi to respond, the mighty Feng Clan asked, "Little Taoist priest, did you kill Elder Feng You and Tianjiao Feng Yun of my Feng Clan?"

"Boy, did Xiang Yiba from my Dayan Holy Land die in your hands?" The powerful man from Dayan Holy Land also asked.

But Li Zhi didn't seem to have any intention of confronting them. Instead, he pointed to the huge bluestone coffin behind him and said, "This is what I prepared specifically for today's scene. I know your origins, so you don't need to waste your words. From tonight on, either I will lie in it, or you will lie in it."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a burst of uproar in the crowd, and even the eight powerful men showed a hint of shock in their eyes.

"What an arrogant little Taoist priest." "Is he going to fight with us?" "Is this little Taoist priest scared silly? Why is he talking nonsense?"

In the crowd, people kept talking about Li Zhi's words which sounded like a joke.

Without exception, they all laughed at him for overestimating his own abilities. Facing eight powerful men and thousands of cultivators, he could remain so calm and composed and say such unreliable words. Everyone felt that there must be something wrong with Li Zhi's brain.

The eight powerful men did not laugh at Li Zhi. Instead, they had a bad premonition in their hearts, as if a disaster was about to happen.

However, no matter how they used their spiritual thoughts to scan the surroundings, they could not find out where the crisis came from.

Then, under their suspicious gazes, Li Zhi said, "My fellow elders, I want to take you to a place where immortals are hidden. I wonder if you are willing to follow me? There are immortal sources, divine springs, immortal medicine, immortal tears and green gold, and the ancient imperial scriptures. What do you think?"

"Is this true? Did the young Taoist really dig up some immortal treasure?" Before the eight powerful men could react, the others were already staring at Li Zhi with green eyes.

"Hmph! You are misleading the people with your lies." The mighty one from Daoyi Holy Land snorted coldly, breaking the mysterious power in Li Zhi's voice.

Everyone shuddered and realized that their thinking seemed to be influenced by an unknown force, and they actually thought that what Li Zhi said was true.

"Alas, what I said is true, why don't you believe it?" Li Zhi seemed a little disappointed.

Afterwards, he took out a jade box that was sealed with layers of Taoist patterns. Even though it was sealed with Taoist patterns, a strong medicinal fragrance still emanated from the jade box.

"Is this the scent of the immortality elixir?"

Dazzling divine light burst out from the eyes of the eight mighty men, and they stared at the jade box in Li Zhi's hand.

Li Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, this is the immortal medicine I got from the immortal treasure place. Now it belongs to you seniors. As for who owns it, I will not distribute it. Whoever grabs it will own it."

As soon as the voice fell, the mighty of Daoyi Holy Land spoke directly: "My fellow Daoists, Young Friend Changshou is the Little Heavenly Venerable of Daoyi Holy Land. There were some misunderstandings before, but now that we have found his whereabouts, the misunderstandings are naturally resolved. My fellow Daoists, please go back."

"Friend Kong, what do you mean by this? Young friend Changshou has clearly been expelled from your Daoyi Holy Land. Do you still have any shame? Let me take him back to the Feng Clan, and let our clan's Holy Lord make the final decision." The Feng Clan's powerful man choked.

“Young friend Changshou has already said that whoever gets it will own it. I will not be polite to you.” The mighty man from Dayan Holy Land stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Zhi.

It seemed as if they were going to snatch both the person and the medicine away. Seeing the mighty ones from Dayan Holy Land taking action, the other mighty ones could no longer sit still and rushed towards Li Zhi.

In an instant, eight huge hands that covered the sky crossed a distance of three hundred steps and arrived in front of Li Zhi.

However, the eight huge hands formed by magic power had not yet touched Li Zhi. When they only reached three feet in front of Li Zhi, they suddenly felt a strong fluctuation in the void and nine dragon roars sounded.

"not good."

Unfortunately, the void array pattern left by the Void Emperor cannot be broken by a mere powerful person.

In an instant, they disappeared from where they were, and no one knew where they were teleported to.

After watching the eight great men disappear, Li Zhi smiled, turned around and looked in the direction of Immortal Mountain and said, "My dear seniors, I hope you can dig out all the immortal treasures there. I will prepare a feast for you to celebrate then."

This scene shocked everyone.

"Little Taoist, where did you teleport the founder of my sect?" A half-step powerful man standing five miles away shouted at Li Zhi.

Li Zhi saw that they were afraid to move forward, fearing that they would disappear inexplicably, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, that void teleportation formation is a one-time forbidden device. After several seniors used it, it has become ineffective. Now I am really trapped in your trap."

But no one believed his lies.

Seeing this, Li Zhi shook his head slightly and said, "In fact, the magic array you set up is still not strong enough. It is still a little short of trapping me. Let me reinforce this cage."

"Boom!" Li Zhi raised his foot and stomped heavily on the ground.

Ten thousand dragon energies burst out instantly, and dragon roars were heard from the heads of the nine dragon veins.

Afterwards, strands of dragon energy penetrated into the flags of the formation, as if providing a powerful energy supplement to the formation.

The barrier that was originally like a transparent water curtain instantly turned into a layer of indestructible ice.

Some monks who were in control of the formation flags were staring at the flags in their hands in a daze. They had not expected such a situation to occur.

After seeing the surrounding barriers replenished with dragon energy, they instantly became stronger several times.

Then, Li Zhi said to the group of monks: "Okay, now the cage is strong enough, you can come and catch me. I still say the same thing, after tonight, either I lie in this sarcophagus, or you lie in this sarcophagus."

After saying that, a rusty halberd appeared in Li Zhi's hand, and the Taoist robe on his body quickly turned into a golden armor, and the helmet seemed to be made of a real dragon head.

It looks majestic and inviolable.

At the same time, an astonishing fighting spirit burst out from Li Zhi, and the halberd in his hand was filled with murderous aura.

It seemed as if he was going to challenge the more than 7,000 monks present alone.

"This little Taoist priest is really crazy." After seeing Li Zhi's performance, most of the monks in the crowd didn't care about his actions at all, but looked at him with ridicule.

A mere cultivator at the third level of the Dragon Transformation Realm actually dared to make such a provocative move in the face of more than twenty half-step great masters and more than a hundred masters from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

In their opinion, Li Zhi would be directly suppressed by the half-step great power present in the next second.

A half-step great power from the Great Yan Holy Land, who was at the early stage of the first level of the Immortal Stage, saw Li Zhi's arrogant provocation and said to the other half-step great powers, "Fellow Taoists, let me take down this arrogant little Taoist priest, and we will interrogate him."

"Brother, please do as you please." The other half-step masters looked at Li Zhi as if he were a clown.

The half-step great power from the Dayan Holy Land didn't even use his magic weapon, but directly swung out a sword energy to slash towards Li Zhi.

Li Zhi didn't seem to have any intention of dodging, and he just raised his halberd and rushed towards the half-step powerful man.

"Break the World Divine Halberd!"

This terrifying halberd technique, which had never been used against the enemy since it was discovered, was now being performed by Li Zhi.

With murderous aura and divine power surging, Li Zhi, holding a halberd and carrying infinite power to break through the world, rushed towards the half-step great man to kill.

"boom!"

The terrifying destructive power of the halberd blade directly shattered the sword energy wielded by the half-step great man, and then it reached the great man in an unstoppable manner.

"Pfft!"

The Holy Weapon Halberd directly pierced through the chest of the half-step great man, and then a terrifying murderous aura burst out from his body.

"boom!"

The half-step great power of Dayan Holy Land exploded on the spot with an expression of disbelief. Even his soul could not escape the impact of the murderous aura and was directly shattered.

One move, just one move.

A half-step powerful man who had already entered the secret realm of Xiantai fell into the hands of Li Zhi.

There was an uproar at the scene.

But Li Zhi didn't give them time to react and went straight to kill the other half-step great man whose cultivation was in the early stage of Immortal One.

The reaction of the half-step great man was extremely quick. He directly summoned a cyan-gold pagoda and went to suppress Li Zhi.

It was a weapon that intertwined "Tao" and "Reason".

However, in front of the holy weapon in Li Zhi's hand, it was completely vulnerable and was directly shattered.

"Holy Soldiers!" the half-step great man shouted in surprise.

At this time, the other half-step great powers also reacted and realized that Li Zhi was really planning to fight with so many of them.

They attacked almost at the same time, using all kinds of magic weapons to smash towards Li Zhi.

But Li Zhi suddenly let out a long roar towards the sky, making an extremely terrifying dragon roar.

"Ouch."

On the surrounding mountains, the cultivators whose cultivation levels were below the Taoist Palace Secret Realm had blood coming out of their seven orifices and were killed by the terrifying roar.

"Oh my god, is he really going to kill us all?"

"Madman, this is a complete madman, everyone, hurry up and kill him."

Someone in the crowd immediately shouted.

And those half-step great powers also felt the aura from Li Zhi, which seemed to be rising endlessly, causing their faces to change drastically.

A horrific and bloody massacre officially begins.

When the dawn sun appeared in the eastern sky, Li Zhi, who seemed to have been soaked in blood, came in front of a cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

Seeing the demon-like figure holding a terrifying halberd walking towards him, the cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Realm was so frightened that he turned pale and knelt in front of Li Zhi, saying, "Don't kill me, don't kill me."

He clearly had no wounds on his body, and even his magic power was intact, but when facing Li Zhi, who had at least eight transparent bloody holes on his body, he could not muster any thought of resisting.

At this time, except for the transparent blood holes on the front and back of Li Zhi's body, almost no other part of his body was intact.

Wounds so deep that the bones could be seen almost covered his entire body, and silver-red blood kept dripping down the halberd in his hand.

But he acted as if nothing had happened, leaving bloody footprints at every step, and walked to the front of the cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

Without even a trembling hand, he pierced the cultivator's forehead with his halberd and shattered his soul.

At this point, all the cultivators within the barrier were destroyed.

Not a single one was left alive.

Looking at the surrounding forests that were almost dyed red with blood, a trace of compassion suddenly emerged on Li Zhi's face, which had become extremely cold.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord."

After sticking the halberd that was almost soaked in blood into the ground, Li Zhi suddenly bowed towards the surrounding mountains and forests.

Afterwards, regardless of the horrific injuries on his body, he sat on the ground and began to recite the "Hou Tu Rebirth Sutra".

One after another, residual souls like evil spirits floated in from everywhere, as if they wanted to eat Li Zhi alive.

However, before they could fly in front of Li Zhi, they were liberated.

The sound of chanting between heaven and earth lasted for more than half an hour. When the sun completely jumped out of the horizon, Li Zhi had finished chanting.

Then, he used the halberd as a crutch and limped to the huge bluestone coffin.

After drinking half a bottle of the holy spring water, his almost exhausted magic power began to recover rapidly.

The wounds on the body also began to heal slowly.

However, those wounds were covered with mysterious power of laws, which made the healing process extremely slow.

However, after gaining magic power, Li Zhi directly took out the snake skin bag, collected all the body parts within a radius of hundreds of miles, and then poured them all into the giant bluestone coffin.

After it was time to close the coffin lid, Li Zhi put it away silently.

After taking another look at the world around him, he took out the Coffin of Life and lay down in it.

Then, a strong force of void burst out from the Coffin of Life, and it completely disappeared on the spot.
