Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 394: Am I dead?

The dust curtain flew back into the sky, and Lou Ban pondered for a moment before suddenly soaring into the sky, surrounded by the dust curtain, heading towards the celestial cloud in the sky!

"No matter what, you are the disciple I have chosen. Even if it means breaking my oath, I cannot watch you be in danger!"

Under his control, the dust curtain became extremely mysterious. No matter from which angle, Lou Ban could not be seen. The light was refracted layer by layer, concealing him completely.

The study of architecture is the perfect use of space, numerology, strength, structure, and aesthetics. Lou Ban was a grandmaster in this field!

He flew to the bottom of the celestial cloud, and the seal of the celestial cloud had long been closed, but he directly intruded into the seal!

The celestial cloud concealed the greatest secret of the Chai family, it was the forbidden land of the Emperor's Cave. The outer seal was extremely powerful, but Lou Ban ignored it and walked right in.

As he moved, countless tiny specks of dust invaded the seal, filling the gaps between the seals.

The dust formed countless exquisite runes, constantly changing and effectively blocking the seal.

.

As Lou Ban continued to move forward, the seal in front of him cracked open, revealing a neatly laid out passage.

The dust curtain was like his thoughts, like his consciousness, changing with his changing thoughts.

This was the use of this great spiritual weapon, like a key that could unlock all seals!

For a grandmaster of architecture like him, the tightest seal of the Chai family was nothing!

After a while, Lou Ban walked into the celestial cloud and headed towards the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion. He faintly felt an extremely powerful aura, and his heart sank.

The most powerful aspect of the original realm is not the physical body, nor the magical power, but the spirit. The original realm's saints often opened up a domain, leaving behind a classic legacy and creating a prominent doctrine. The spirit of the original realm's saints was even more powerful, not inferior to the gods!

The most recent saint in the world, both inside and outside the country, was Lou Ban. Other so-called saints, including the four great myths of Yuan Shuo, as well as Yue Liuxi and Jiang Zushi from overseas, all had some shortcomings.

But even with Lou Ban's powerful spirit, he felt a terrifying pressure, indicating how terrifying this pressure was!

"God King! It's the God King Chai Yundu!"

Lou Ban couldn't help but shiver. "This God King lives here!"

Although he guessed that Yundu God King was here, he didn't hesitate and continued to move forward.

Su Yun, the disciple he chose to pass on his teachings, had already imprinted this kind of consciousness in his spirit. Therefore, no matter what, he couldn't let Su Yun be in danger again, even if it meant risking his own spirit!

Ying Ying called it protecting the calf, but for him, it was the inheritance of the Dao. As long as Su Yun survived, his Dao would be equivalent to living for himself!

Su Yun was drawn forward by the divine light transformed by the Yuan Ci Divine Sword, quickly surpassing Wu Tong. Wu Tong showed a surprised expression, as if he was saying something.

The speed of the Yuan Ci Divine Light was too fast, and Su Yun didn't hear clearly, but he saw the entrance to the celestial palace coming towards him.

Flying through this entrance, the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion appeared before him.

It was a towering archway and alleyways. The archway was the entrance, extremely tall, with various strange runes engraved on it, like gods and demons.

After passing through the archway and the alleyway, he saw flags flying on both sides of the alleyway, each flag fluttering with the names of immortals and unique branded patterns.

Those flags were huge, and their purpose was unknown.

Suddenly, there was a violent collision ahead. The old woman Chai Cui and Nan Buyi were fighting in the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion, one in front and one behind, both extremely agile.

Chai Cui was using some kind of divine power, activating a large flag that surrounded the two of them, blocking Nan Buyi's divine power.

Although Nan Buyi's cultivation strength was higher than hers, and he was proficient in various ancient saintly arts of Yuan Shuo, he couldn't break through the defense of those flags.

And whenever those large flags erupted with terrifying power, it forced him to retreat.

"Whoosh—"

The Yuan Ci Divine Light suddenly cut through the divine powers of the two, passing through them. The sharp light cut off their divine powers.

Chai Cui and Nan Buyi were shocked and looked closely, only to vaguely see a figure in the light.

"Could it be the return of the Ancestor?"

Chai Cui frowned. The light just now was too fast, and she couldn't see who was in the light. But if it wasn't the spirit of the Ancestor Yundu, how could Nan Buyi be so arrogant?

"If it's not the Ancestor Yundu, then who could it be?"

She had just thought of this when she saw Nan Buyi standing on a large flag, his momentum continuously rising. His cultivation was skyrocketing, making Chai Cui unable to think too much and quickly activate the large flag to protect herself.

The legal system of the Tianxian family, inherited from Yuan Shuo, has three levels: law, art, and power.

Now, Nan Buyi's power, law, and art had all reached the level of the original realm. The Tianxian family's laws were faintly appearing above his head, and behind him, the laws were like a sea and a mountain, while the art was like chains, locks, prisons, and dungeons!

Nan Buyi's momentum erupted, and erupted again. Suddenly, countless chains shot out from behind him, forming a dense and intricate cage around the two of them.Faintly, Chai Cui actually felt the surrounding spiritual energy of the world depleting rapidly!

Not only that, she even felt her own true essence within her body withering, her divine abilities and runes gradually being suppressed!

"I studied under the predecessors on the path to ascension, and received knowledge from Yuan Shuo!"

Nan Buyi was dressed in coarse cloth, and although his face was that of a young man, his skin was rough, and his body was sturdy, showing the vicissitudes of the sea. With one strike, he used the authority of the heavens, showing a trend of replacing the laws of heaven with the laws of man!

This is the mystery of the great art of the Legalists!

Chai Cui urged the large flag to resist this strike, but was shaken to the point of her blood and energy churning. Then, Nan Buyi's second seal attacked!

Chai Cui retreated, but Nan Buyi's momentum grew stronger. The second seal of the Legalists, known as "Guarding the Way"!

Guarding the Way, guarding the way of the emperor, guarding the way of the holy emperor, establishing an emperor who transcends the world!

Nan Buyi was like a holy emperor, and the second seal made Chai Cui's mouth bleed, the large flag scattered, and she retreated again.

Nan Buyi continued to advance, using the third seal to deceive, the fourth seal to eliminate, the fifth seal to have a measure, the sixth seal to assert authority, and the seventh seal to emphasize the way of the Legalists.

Chai Cui continued to retreat, and with each step back, Nan Buyi's momentum grew stronger. After the move of the main way, Nan Buyi's body turned into a divine sword, radiating a brilliant light that grew stronger and stronger!

Chai Cui felt an intense sense of unease. This sword was the art and law of the Legalists, elevated to the level of the Way!

Her momentum was weakened, her techniques scattered, and she had no way to resist this sword!

"Previously, I had the advantage. If it weren't for that divine light attack, I would have pursued victory and grown stronger. How could I have been turned from victory to defeat by Nan Buyi?"

Just as Chai Cui was thinking this, Nan Buyi's sword light fell, and Chai Cui's head fell to the ground.

"This sword is called Treacherous Calamity."

Nan Buyi dissipated the sword light and said lightly, "The law supports the right way and eliminates treacherous calamities. This is the great way, and your Chai family cannot stop it!"

Chai Cui's body fell, her head rolling on the ground, but she called out, "The Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion is the sacred place of my Chai family, guarded by spirits everywhere, with layers of seals. You will undoubtedly die if you force your way into the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion!"

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Chains shot through her head, pulling her spirit out of the spirit realm. Chai Cui's spirit was suspended.

"You can die first and then speak!" Nan Buyi used the authority of the heavens to shatter her spirit.

Nan Buyi turned and rushed into the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion, thinking to himself, "Strange, who is the person in that divine light? Why did they help me?"

Just then, a strong aura rose up in front of him. In the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion, it seemed as if there were majestic gods slowly awakening!

Nan Buyi's expression became serious, but he laughed heartily, "Even if the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion is a den of dragons and tigers, I will still break through!"

He rushed forward with all his might, passing through one immortal pavilion after another. At this moment, in front of the immortal pavilion, a god over ten zhang tall appeared, with four arms and holding an immortal flag, exuding a murderous aura.

That was the golden body god formed from the absorption of immortal light by the older generation of the Chai family after their death!

Nan Buyi gritted his teeth and charged forward. At the same time, the gods of the Chai family were awakening and rushing towards him.

On the other side, in the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion, more golden body gods of the Chai family were awakening, and a divine light passed through them.

Su Yun firmly grasped the hilt of the magnetic sword, and the blade had turned into a divine light, carrying him forward at an extremely fast speed!

He looked to the sides and saw gods over ten zhang, twenty zhang, and even a hundred zhang tall, flashing past his field of vision. The puzzled and questioning expressions on their faces caught his eye.

"I wonder if they saw my face... But on second thought, the power of the Chai family is indeed too strong!"

Su Yun felt a hidden worry in his heart. He had already seen that the Chai family was trying to conquer the Tian Shi Yuan, and he had also shown a bit of his strength to make the people of the Chai family take notice of the strength of the Tian Shi Yuan.

What he didn't expect was that the hidden strength of the Chai family was truly terrifying!

Ahead, the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion in the immortal palace had reached its end, and at the end was a grand immortal palace!

Outside the grand palace, large pavilions stood on both sides, each with majestic golden body gods awakening and looking towards the divine light where Su Yun was!

The strength and cultivation of the golden body gods here were even more powerful, giving Su Yun the feeling that they were probably not inferior to Yu Daoyuan at his peak, and perhaps even stronger!

The golden body gods here had definitely reached a level that surpassed the limits of the world!

Su Yun gritted his teeth, refusing to let go of the magnetic sword, and the divine light carried him into the immortal palace.

The gates of the immortal palace were heavily sealed, with the support of the golden body gods of the Chai family and layers of seals on the gates, solid as a rock and impossible to break through!

However, the light formed by the magnetic sword came flying, and the layers of seals automatically unraveled, and the tightly closed gates cracked open, allowing the magnetic sword to carry Su Yun through the seals and into the immortal palace!

The golden body gods guarding the immortal palace, with snow-white beards and eyebrows, each showed a look of astonishment.

"In the sword light, who is it?"

At the moment when Su Yun was pulled into the immortal palace by the magnetic sword, an incomparably terrifying divine might pressed down like an overwhelming force of heaven and earth. Su Yun couldn't help but tense every muscle in his body, doing everything he could to resist that unimaginable pressure!In his spiritual realm, the osmanthus tree shone with the Li Pearl gleaming like the bright moon. As the spiritual realm's furnace ignited, true essence surged tumultuously, roaring towards the Li Pearl!

Before him, the light transformed by the Yuan Magnetic Divine Sword was charging towards a deity as tall as a mountain, bathed in celestial light, with eyes tightly shut!

The mere divine might emanating from the deity's body was nearly enough to shatter Su Yun's physical form, compressing his spiritual realm continuously.

Ying Ying, hiding within Su Yun's spiritual realm, couldn't help but cry out in alarm, with the White Rhinoceros carrying her, yet finding nowhere to hide.

At that moment, a terrifying pressure provoked Su Yun's roar of rage. His Li Pearl shattered under the dreadful force, and a majestic spirit flew out from the broken Li Pearl!

Hum!

Behind him, the phantom of an immortal emerged, overlapping with his celestial spirit!

The phantom of the immortal became unprecedentedly clear, identical to Su Yun and his spirit!

Su Yun clutched the Yuan Magnetic Divine Sword tightly, as his celestial spirit behind him emitted rays of light, contending against the divine might of that deity!

He could withstand it, but Ying Ying and the spiritual rhinoceros could no longer bear the deity's oppressive might!

"No matter who you are, I'm sorry!"

Behind Su Yun, the majestic celestial spirit extended its palm forward alongside him to seal!

"Suppress for me!"

A wall of runes appeared, countless splendid runes flying from his hand, soaring towards the towering deity!

And behind the wall of runes, there was boundless darkness!

"Whoosh!"

The towering deity twisted, pulled by Su Yun into the center of his brow, sealed away.

Ying Ying and the spiritual rhinoceros breathed a sigh of relief, collapsing to the ground. At the same time, far beyond the Yuan Shuo heavens, a supremely majestic spirit radiated divine light, condensing the Yuan Magnetic into various weapons, attacking the world where Yuan Shuo resided.

Suddenly, the spirit furrowed its brow, showing a look of surprise: "Am I dead?"
