Absolute Destiny Game-Chapter 1380 - 29: Three Immortals Take Disciples

Li Xiaoyi started laughing mockingly, "Hahaha! Since when did you monkeys learn to lament the spring and bemoan the autumn? Hey—look, hey, what’s my dear old dad doing up on that Heavenly Pillar?"

At the very top of that Sealing God Pillar in the distance, it was none other than Li Jin, the Pagoda-Bearing King, who had now reverted back to a statue form.

Xiao Jie thought to himself that Nezha of this world might have changed visually, but the character of "Son of the Pagoda-Bearing King" is still there—it explains his surname Li.

The group didn’t bother with the millions of Heavenly Soldiers on the Sealing God Pillar—the numbers were too high, and killing them would also resurrect them, so even these three weren’t willing to provoke them. The gang took a big detour, flying all the way to the South Heavenly Gate.

Through the transparent barrier of the South Heavenly Gate, the Four Great Heavenly Kings and numerous Heavenly Soldiers and Generals could be seen in their positions, blocking the exit tightly.

Sun Xiaotian stopped, turned around, and flashed a grin at the three, "Wait here for a while, let your teacher clear the way for you!"

With that, the Chaos Demon Ape let out a bizarre roar, and his form suddenly expanded!

Daluo Immortal Technique—Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth!

Boom—!!!

His body swelled rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, ten zhang, a hundred zhang, a thousand zhang... In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a giant reaching the sky, his head nearly touching the layer of strong winds above Jiuxiao! The terrifying air currents generated by the vast volume born out of thin air blew Xiao Jie and the other three directly away, rolling a dozen times in mid-air before barely steadying themselves.

"Damn it!" Xiao Jie stared wide-eyed, his mouth agape as he looked at the giant ape piercing the clouds before him, shocked beyond belief.

Shit, now that’s what you call impressive!

By comparison, his three-hundred-meter-long Giant Kunkun’s Dharma Aspect seemed like a tiny fish.

The thousand zhang demon ape lowered his head to look at the three tiny disciples, grinning broadly—that smile looked especially ferocious on a giant face. He waved at the three, and the airflow generated with this gesture scattered the clouds for dozens of miles around.

"Wait up!"

He said in a booming voice, like a rolling thunder. Then he took big strides toward the outside of the South Heavenly Gate—having to bend his head down to pass under the lintel; otherwise, he would hit it.

Outside, soon came earth-shattering rumblings!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four massive crashes, accompanied by vibrations like heaven collapsing and earth shattering.

Xiao Jie suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed, "Master, wait! Let me help you!"

The other two also reacted—those Four Great Heavenly Kings drop loot when they die! As long as they could contribute a little damage, if they could get access to the loot, picking any item would absolutely yield Top-Grade Equipment!

However, the three were still half a step too late.

Just as they scrambled to fly out of the South Heavenly Gate, they saw Lord Zengzhang being knocked down with a single blow—the hundred zhang-high towering Divine General crashing down as if struck by a meteor, raising a dust cloud in the air.

Meanwhile, the other three Heavenly Kings—Chi Guo, Guangmu, Du Wen—had already become three huge corpses on the ground, their golden armor shattered, divine weapons broken, blood staining the cloud brick plaza outside the South Heavenly Gate.

The three only managed to kill a few scattered Heavenly Soldier small fry, getting a bit of experience.

Listening to the system prompt, Xiao Jie thought to himself that this was an unexpected bonus—the reputation aside, just unlocking the complete exploration area made the trip worthwhile. In the future, he could bring people here to farm equipment and do tasks.

Speaking of which, what’s the use of this Embers City reputation anyway? He opened the reputation panel for a look:

Embers City reputation: Respect (5000/30000)

Current privilege: Enjoy a 10% discount at all shops in Embers City, can accept exclusive tasks issued by the City Lord Mansion.

Next stage: Reverence (30,000 points)—Unlock special exchange list from Embers City Quartermaster, unlock exclusive Task from City Lord Mansion.

Seems like high reputation brings quite a few benefits, Xiao Jie secretly noted.

At this moment, the demon ape had already returned to human-sized form, carrying his iron rod leisurely, without even breaking a sweat.

"Hehe, these pesky gods once gave old Sun a hard time, blocking the South Heavenly Gate and not letting me in. Now they’ve degenerated into such a state but still forgot their past thrashing. Today, I’ll refresh their memory—better stay clear when seeing old Sun in the future!"

Zhao Yu said, "Alright, no need to show off. Where is that Embers City? Lead us there."

Emperor Shitian hurriedly nodded, "Right, right, please wait a moment, masters."

Creation Immortal Technique—Star Raft Crossing!

He formed sealing gestures with his hands, reciting incantations. Countless starlights gathered in the void, rapidly condensing into a radiant Star Boat. The Star Boat measured about ten zhang long, constructed entirely from semi-transparent Star Crystals, with gleaming galaxy-like bands flowing over its hull, full to the brim with style.

"Please, come aboard," Emperor Shitian gestured invitingly, a bit proud—that Star Boat was something he painstakingly recreated from "Primordial Spirit". Not only was it fast and highly defensive, but it could also perform short-distance space jumps. Critically, its cool appearance maximally showcased the ingenuity of his Creation Immortal Technique.

"Your little boat is indeed quite unique," the Three Demons clicked their tongues in admiration, inspecting the Star Boat with great interest. Li Xiaoyi even jumped onto the bow directly, curiously touching here and knocking there.

The group boarded the boat, Emperor Shitian stood at the bow, placing his hands on the Control Array.

"Set sail, target—Embers City!"

The Star Raft gently shuddered, transforming into a stream of light, speeding toward the distant horizon.

Inside the boat, Xiao Jie looked at the rapidly retreating sea of clouds outside the window, then at the three Daluo "masters" sitting opposite, his mind filled with thoughts.

This trip to the Heavenly Court yielded far more than expected.

Not only had his strength soared, but he had apprenticed under a Daluo Golden Immortal, and befriended two strong teammates who were similarly "Heavenly Destiny". Most importantly—they discovered the key to saving the world: three Innate Treasures and the "Power of Saint" required to activate them.

Although the path ahead remained perilous, at least, there was now hope.
