Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree
Chapter 1352 - 477: Scruples and Overturning the Table (Part 2)
"Saint King, did the Netherworld truly abandon its defense entirely?" A hot-tempered True Saint directly asked his thoughts.
The Saint King walked at the forefront, his steps still unhurried, but his figure seemed to carry an indescribable fatigue.
He didn't turn around, merely asked calmly back, his voice exceptionally clear in the silent starry sky:
"Do you think there's still a need to defend?"
All the strong figures looked at each other in confusion.
This was their doubt too—does the Netherworld truly require their protection?
It seems... it doesn't need it?
These people suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of out-of-place... redundancy.
"There were more than one who made a move before."
The Saint King suddenly spoke, his gaze directed at the two surging rivers in the void.
Since the connection between Daluo Heaven and the Great Universe became increasingly close, he could borrow the supreme power of Daluo Heaven to continually sense the subtle pulses of these two supreme rivers.
The expressions of the mighty figures tensed—another master?!
"Was the one who acted earlier from the Burial Sea?" Xi Yingzhen asked solemnly.
The Saint King nodded, he spoke again, his voice carrying a serenity settled in dust and a certain indescribable relief:
"Since this one... is willing to make a move, can make a move, and is on our side, driving away the outsiders, then everything becomes easier."
The Saint King's gaze withdrew from the void and swept across the heavy, skeptical, and suddenly enlightened faces behind him, his voice suddenly becoming firm:
"From today forth, the Netherworld no longer needs defense."
"Let the outsiders come and go as they wish, we shall no longer block them, only firmly hold Daluo Heaven."
All Saints recovered from their initial shock, gradually understanding the intent of this one.
There are too many strong outsiders, they can't stop them, so they might as well not stop them.
The hidden threats within the realm are vast, unable to be excised, so they simply won't care, just guard their own territory.
In the end, let's see if the fists of the powerful outsiders are tougher, or the origins of the inner threats are greater!
"We should thank that strong one who sneaked into the Netherworld," the Saint King said leisurely, "Without this one, the one from the Burial Sea wouldn't have made a move, how would outsiders know the danger of our Netherworld? Next, let them play their game."
"What about the Yanhuang Federation over there?" the Moon God suddenly asked.
The Saint King glanced at her, his gaze containing an obvious warning:
"If you don't want to die, stay far away from that place!"
The Moon God couldn't help but step back, intimidated by the presence of the Saint King.
This one had just stepped off the battlefield, bloodletting mixed with intense killing intent and domineering aura. During these days of war, the Saint King alone entangled several Supreme True Saints from the other side, even having the strength to kill several True Saints and Ancients.
The Saint King placed his hands behind his back, his eyes deep, glanced at the location of the Yanhuang Federation, then withdrew his gaze.
He hadn't even bothered to look more.
The Bitter Sea...
Is this the source of everything?
...
...
Boundless Sea of Void.
Luo Xuan suddenly halted, turned back to gaze, another "self" quickly approaching, merging with him.
This was the hidden Divine Skill he'd honed for years, dividing into two, yet without losing combat power, effectively equating to having another him for a short period.
"Qian Wanqiu?!"
After digesting the experience in the Netherworld, the originally calm Luo Xuan's expression suddenly darkened.
His Daoist Robe fluttered without wind, thirty-six Divine Rings faintly appeared around him, each harboring the Dao Foundation's origin of a top-tier True Saint he had plundered, emanating a heart-palpitating aura of devouring and destruction.
Three times in a row!
He was actually intercepted three times within the Netherworld, by different individuals!
"Netherworld..."
"Since you all so enjoy fishing..."
Luo Xuan stepped forward, his form merging into the endless void waves ahead, only a cold, gritted voice resonating amidst the sound of ocean tides:
"Then I shall personally overturn your... fishpond!"
...
...
Boom!
Millions of miles of air waves cleared the emptiness, overthrowing everything tangible and intangible within the Sea of Realms.
A deep dark streamer traversed at unimaginable speed.
Under the escort of two True Saints Feng Ming, Ji Jingqiu rode upon You Lan, traversing across the Sea of Realms.
Entering the Sea of Realms, You Lan adapted as a fish to water, Innate close to this Sea of Void, as if returning to its homeland, its abyss-like dark scales autonomously expanded and contracted, inhaling and exhaling the origin Qi of the Void, exuding an excitement and joy from deep within its bloodline.
With a sway of its body, its speed increased dramatically, seeming as if they shared a lineage.
Witnessing this, Feng Ming couldn't help but exchange a look with Konghai, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
This phenomenon matched the early records of the Ancestor Master!
"Ji!"
In front, a familiar figure appeared, unmistakably the True Saint Yin An ahead, sent to reconnoiter the news.
The group finally converged here.
"Senior Brother Yin!" Ji Jingqiu saluted with clasped fists.
Yin An couldn't help but glance at You Lan beneath Ji Jingqiu.
This beast seemed to be a Swallowing Realm Species like the Ancestor Master, or even Ancestor Beast level.
"Ji, the Netherworld has sent the latest movements, this news has spread across various Transcendence Gates, causing a sensation!"
Ji Jingqiu was taken aback; could the Netherworld have been breached? Otherwise, how could it spread across various Transcendence Gates?
For now, although they had contacted other gates, informing them of the Bitter Sea's Eye hidden within the Netherworld, the instigator behind the attackers undoubtedly concealed the [This Shore] force, hoping to garner support.
But the responders were sparse.
On one hand, shortly before they captured inner spies of various gates in the Void Realm, which had already sparked confrontations among several Transcendence Gates.
For instance, the Duobao Pavilion, which typically doesn't interfere with the Sea of Realms affairs, found itself at the center of the vortex, being interrogated jointly by multiple parties.
