Chapter 404: Chapter 42: Corpse of the Great Celestial God · Jubi Corpse (2/3)

"Has it already started?"

Feeling the disturbance of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, Li Boyang, who had long reached the vicinity of the Fourth Heaven, smiled.

It was different from the ruins of White Jade City in the Fifth Heaven, and different from the Eighth Heaven piled with the corpses of Gods.

The fallen Fourth Heaven was unexpectedly vast.

As far as the eye could see, it was actually a plain area filled with "plants."

Of course, the Celestial Emperor’s Capital had long since lost its life.

So the "plants" here were in quotes, not actual living beings.

To make a perhaps unsuitable comparison, the plants growing in this area were dead.

Like lifeless rocks.

The plants here grew like deadwood, without a trace of vitality and vigor.

However, after the disturbance of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, as the life essence of the Nanming Vermilion Bird Array began to spread across the entire Celestial Emperor’s Capital.

This place, originally designated for planting Immortal Grass, was the first to be affected by this life force.

Bzzzzz...

Those plants, like deadwood and rocks, began to animate at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Regrettably, this animation still lacked life essence, merely a natural phenomenon akin to an earthquake or tsunami.

Fortunately, Li Boyang did not care about these; instead, he immediately opened the Celestial Eye at his brow.

Under the Celestial Eye’s discernment, Li Boyang quickly located the core of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi— the center causing the plant disturbances in the entire region.

"Is that the source of the Immortal Grass?"

With a hint of incredulity, Li Boyang instantly disappeared from his spot.

When he reappeared, he was already within the earth several thousand meters deep.

There was no space available for Li Boyang to display his skills here, only layers of rock and soil.

Yet in such a nearly desolate place, a completely plant-like humanoid was buried.

It seemed to be a teenager, but the appearance of death was extremely tragic.

The neck was forcibly broken, the head hanging to the side, and both hands completely gone.

Even so, the expression on the teenager’s face remained indifferent, as if it wasn’t his own demise.

Just by looking at the expression on the teenager’s face, Li Boyang couldn’t help but feel an inexplicable chill.

[Jubi Corpse? The reincarnation of Lord of the Netherworld?]

Such a thought flashed in his mind, and Li Boyang almost immediately confirmed his speculation.

Aside from the reincarnated form killed by Emperor Hao.

Li Boyang couldn’t think of anyone else who could be buried in a place where Immortal Grass grows.

Moreover, Emperor Hao cultivated the Immortal Grass only after fatally attacking the reincarnated form of Lord of the Netherworld.

[Using the blood of the Great Celestial God to nurture Immortal Grass, the Celestial Emperor truly has no taboos in his deeds!]

Quickly shifting his gaze away from the reincarnated form, Li Boyang saw the petrified plants growing from its body.

That was Immortal Grass, or rather, the primary stock of Immortal Grass.

After the upheaval in the Celestial Emperor’s Capital, and enduring millennia...

The Immortal Grass had long since lost all life essence, transforming into fossil-like dead matter.

If not for the inherent special nature of Immortal Grass.

Even those derived root plants wouldn’t be able to move an inch.

[This is the true Immortal Grass!]

Rooted in the reincarnated form of Lord of the Netherworld and drawing nutrients from the entire earth to grow.

The petrified plant stood like a towering tree, forcibly growing from thousands of meters deep in the crust to the surface.

Even if it has been petrified for nearly ten thousand years, this petrified plant can still perceive the changes in Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, thereby adjusting its evolutionary direction.

—Dead, yet not completely dead.

This is the current state of Immortal Grass, also the survival instinct of this flesh-deep petrified plant.

[Looks like some effort will be required...]

Li Boyang’s target was never the Immortal Grass growing on the surface.

His target was the main stock of Immortal Grass rooted in the reincarnated form of Lord of the Netherworld, which had been petrified for nearly ten thousand years.

Only by completely acquiring the main stock of Immortal Grass can Li Boyang continue the subsequent planting, cultivation, grafting, optimization, and promotion.

If it were an ordinary person, faced with this main stock of Immortal Grass rooted thousands of meters deep underground and drawing nutrients from the entire earth to grow, there might truly be no way to extract it.

But Li Boyang was never an ordinary person, nor did he ever follow common sense in his actions.

Whoosh!

He took off the Red Skin Fur Robe from his body and threw it vigorously toward the reincarnated form of Lord of the Netherworld.

In the process, the Red Skin Fur Robe rapidly expanded visibly, and the solid structure of the earth began to tremble and shake.

Rumble...

In a moment, the vibrations from beneath the earth reached the surface.

The entire plain of the fallen Fourth Heaven showed densely packed earth fissures like a spider web.

These fissures spread wide and dense, quickly extending to other areas of the Celestial Emperor’s Capital, forming the posture of a super earthquake.

More critically, deep within those earth fissures.

A faint red light could be seen penetrating the cracks, surging from the underground to the surface.

Boom!

At that moment, right above the main stock of Immortal Grass.

A crimson stream of light pierced through the earth’s crust, erupting skyward like a volcanic explosion— that was Li Boyang manifesting in physical form.

At this moment, Li Boyang rarely transformed into a gigantic figure a hundred meters tall.

This was a real and substantive change in physique, and also the most powerful application of [Thousand Transformations Divine Power] on Li Boyang.

—Essence, Qi, and Spirit synchronously operate.

—The combination of physical body, Primordial Qi, and Primordial Spirit exerting force.

"Ha!"

The hundred-meter giant suspended in the sky, his flaming red hair fluttering in the wind.

A simple thought brought the vast Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi along, forming a substantial vortex of Primordial Qi.

The [Profound Yellow Qi] circulating around him fully manifested, vaguely forming into the shape of a Treasure Tower.

"Rise for me...!"

With Li Boyang’s earth-shattering roar.

The entire plain was peeled away at that moment.

Soil, rocks, roots, and plants pulled up from the ground, then converged in mid-air in a nearly incredible manner.

No, not converged...

But enveloped and lifted by the Red Skin Fur Robe.

From a distance, the Red Skin Fur Robe, now massive to the point of obscuring boundaries, enveloped the earth, digging out a gigantic basin in the plain’s center.

Buzz!

The sky seemed to turn infinitely red in that instant.

The proverb talisman visible to the naked eye flowed and changed on the massive Red Skin Fur Robe, resonating in response to the giant figure above.

Subsequently, the Red Skin Fur Robe, enveloping Immortal Grass’s main stock along with this plain, began to rotate rapidly under Li Boyang’s command.
