Chapter 689: Coming (57 more!)
The mountain was trembling in madness, and the next moment, it burst open with a thunderous crash!
Boom, crackle, the rocks fell, and Ye Ling's body soared into the air, his eyes solemn.
Lu Yuan, engaged in a fierce fight to the death above, beheld the scene with eyes widened, utterly astonished!
"No! Don't dare!"
Just then, suddenly the Heavenly Emperor made his move, and Xiao Bai, who was entangling Lu Yuan, also acted, the two formidable slayers attacking at once, one human, one demon, simultaneously piercing through Lu Yuan's chest.
Staggering, Lu Yuan's steps shook violently, and a stream of fresh blood sprayed out as his body slowly fell down, his vitality completely shattered by the two.
The Divine Infant, soaring into the sky, but as Lu Yuan's Divine Infant reached the high altitude, a hand appeared quietly above it and fiercely slapped down, smashing it.
With a clatter, the Divine Infant fell into Ye Ling's hands, and the next moment, all of Lu Yuan's Divine Infants were devoured, another terrifying force almost breaking through Ye Ling.
Under the shattered mountain, a dreadful and intense power was quietly stirring, Ye Ling's eyes suddenly widened, why was this aura so familiar?
It was the dragon vein, suppressed under the Thirty-Six Heavenly Caves, now trapped beneath the earth!
With a roar, Ye Ling bellowed furiously, and with a slash of his sword, the terrifying sword light shattered the land, and the next moment, a white smoke-like giant dragon soared into the sky.
The giant dragon ascended and hovered in mid-air, exuding a rich vitality that startled Ye Ling, almost unable to resist devouring the dragon vein then and there.
"Come back with me, I'll take you back to the mortal world!"
Ye Ling quickly shouted out, and the dreadful dragon vein, surprisingly human-like in its contemplation, then soared up, flying into Ye Ling's storage ring.
After securing the dragon vein, Ye Ling finally understood why Lu Yuan looked so shocked when he saw the mountain collapse; it was because a dragon vein was suppressed below.
If that's the case, heh heh, why not just collapse all the mountains of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Caves and take away the dragon veins, then throw them back into the land of Huaxia.
The Heavenly Emperor, descending to the ground and seeing Ye Ling's expression, was instantly startled and guessed what Ye Ling was planning, almost exactly.
"I'm saying, don't get any wild ideas. I'm telling you, if you can take away ten of the dragon veins in these Thirty-Six Heavenly Caves, that'll be impressive!"
Hearing the Heavenly Emperor's words, Ye Ling was somewhat puzzled, and the Heavenly Emperor urgently said, "Are you foolish? These dragon veins have been here for a thousand years, they've long shifted from initial resistance to compliance."
"Only a few dragon veins like the one just now will choose to leave, and once all, or even half, of the dragon veins are taken by you, this world will collapse instantaneously!"
"Do you think that Xuantian Palace will allow you to take away more than half of the dragon veins? I think you're afraid we'll die early. Let me tell you, the Lord of Xuantian Palace is a Half-Step Immortal, don't go looking for trouble!"
The Heavenly Emperor hurriedly patted Ye Ling, who was beside him; this guy really had a reckless courage. If he knew that by doing such a thing, the Lord of Xuantian Palace would not forgive them.
What awaited them would simply be death, a Half-Step Immortal, bearing the title of Immortal in his name, regardless of whether it was half or whole, signified a transformation, completely different, invincible in this world.
Ye Ling, on the side, was stunned, damn, so there was such an issue? So, the dragon veins that he had been coveting, might simply turn into nothing but a fleeting illusion?
Ye Ling did not wish to provoke the so-called half-step Immortal just yet. To dare such an encounter, he must at least possess the cultivation of the Divine Infant Late Stage.
Only then would Ye Ling be qualified to do battle with him, otherwise he would not even possess the qualifications for a fight.
The three great powers had perished utterly, Huafeng Dong Tian was destroyed, what's more important, the dragon vein beneath Huafeng Dong Tian had been seized.
This had completely incensed the whole Xuantian Palace; when the Vice Palace Master, who managed the daily affairs of Xuantian Palace, learned of this, he nearly coughed up blood in anger.
It's said that this terrifying figure who had dominated the land for at least a thousand years spewed blood on the grand Xuantian Hall, so angry he almost passed out.
Of course, by the time the Xuantian Palace's army came for revenge, Ye Ling and the Heavenly Emperor had already fled with Xiao Bai.
They would not be so foolish as to stand there waiting for the Xuantian Palace's forces to come, oh right, and possibly the so-called Divines Hall as well.
In the Divines Hall of the West, within the densely interwoven chains of space, a martial artist from the East walked out. Atop Divine Mountain, a series of powerful consciousnesses went into a frenzy.
"This is too much, simply too much! Despicable to the extreme, you Huaxia man, how dare you insult our Divines Hall like this, you are courting death!"
"Hall Master, let me lead the ten great warriors, storm over there, and crush them, and annihilate Xuantian Palace too, hmm, they too have neglected us egregiously."
In an instant, the entire Divines Hall was seething with anger, the terrifying chains clanging loudly, trembling with a fearsome noise.
Suddenly, a dreadful aura directly suppressed the entire heaven and earth, the air seemed to be trapped, and even the terrifying chains stopped quivering.
"The majesty of Divines Hall must not be insulted. Granfen, take six Divine Infant Late Stage and one peak Divine Infant fighter to the Thirty-Six Heavenly Caves. Upon finding the person who killed members of our Divines Hall, execute them!"
An authoritative voice sounded, and the strong fighter named Granfen immediately acknowledged. Subsequently, seven terrifying beams of light pierced through the sky, furiously streaking towards the East.
Within the Thirty-Six Heavenly Caves, around the gate of Qingtian Dong Tian, Ye Ling and the Heavenly Emperor lay in a cave, perfectly at ease, ready to suppress anyone daring to come.
"But Ye Ling, I must tell you, those two forces are truly troublesome. The year before last, I was nearly killed by these guys once again."
"Three Divine Infant Late Stage fighters chased me, and at the time I was only at the Divine Infant Middle Stage. I had to flee for seven days and nights before I barely escaped with my life, and I even managed to kill one in the process."
"I suspect, the trouble you have caused this time is no smaller than mine."
Hearing this, Ye Ling frowned, "Hey, I'm not pleased with your words. What do you mean by the trouble I caused? It's as if you hadn't lifted a finger, don't forget, you played a part too."
The Heavenly Emperor immediately became anxious and waved his hands dismissively, "Nonsense, they're after you, not much to do with me. Besides, if we really can't hold out, you'll have to withstand it on your own. After I become an Immortal, I'll avenge you."
"Get lost, go die somewhere else. With your character, I know better than anyone else. I can't believe nine out of ten words from your mouth," Ye Ling said, leaning back with his legs crossed and a relaxed smile, while the Heavenly Emperor pursed his lips. Suddenly, they both sat up, their eyes intense.
"They're here!"
