Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1131 - 404: Pursuit and Counter-Surrounding
The thirty-six layers of the Divine Ring spun and expanded, supporting a realm of Pure Land under the waves of Dao Rhyme.
Standing at the center of the Pure Land, Qing Zhou, with deep eyes, murmured to himself:
"Is it finally about to begin? According to the prediction of my master before I came in, Chao Ge should have hidden his Taoist Inheritance at the core of this mountain gate..."
The Taoist Inheritance of a powerful person who failed to break through but still reached the level of Transcendence at the end of life—something even a True Saint would fight bloodily over.
The most critical part is that there are rumors that Chao Ge had seen a true Transcender!
According to information gathered in the palace, that Transcender once passed through this realm and had interactions with Chao Ge.
The fact that Chao Ge risked a breakthrough at the end of life possibly relates to some connection with that Transcender.
Perhaps he received some guidance or saw the direction of the future path.
However...
Qing Zhou gazed solemnly at the distant palaces.
Chao Ge would never let them obtain the inheritance so easily.
What appears to be a treasure land is in fact a dead land.
Additionally, the Land of Dao they are in seems not to be the "complete picture."
He has yet to find some anticipated formidable foes, all are core disciples of various Transcendence Gates, with whom he has often crossed paths in the past.
With the abilities and heritage of those guys, even if they mistakenly enter a dead land in the first stage, they would, at most, suffer a major setback, but not face certain death.
In other words, the Star Region they are in, is still just part of the battlefield.
He speculates that the final convergence point of all battlefields may be the Chaohua Mountain ahead.
At its peak, this Chaohua Mountain was the center of this realm, a dojo holy land revered by all realms.
Just one step away, Chaohua Mountain would become a Transcendence Gate like their [Mayfly Palace].
Qing Zhou just sighed lightly, lamenting the hardship of this road, when he heard his little junior sister urgently speak from behind:
"Senior Brother, that guy is moving in a direction opposite to us, lend me your Heavenly Destiny Mystical Weapon, I'll go intercept him!"
Qing Zhou immediately furrowed his brows and scolded, "Nonsense, who do you think you are? An Absolute Peak Heavenly King or a Supreme Heavenly Monarch? And who do you take Ji Linyuan for? A fish on the chopping board, ready for you to slaughter?"
The woman retorted unwillingly, "If I take Senior Brother's Heavenly Destiny Mystical Weapon, am I still unable to capture him?"
"Do you think he, as a rising star of the Wuya branch, has no Guardian Artifact on him?" Qing Zhou asked back simply.
As for whether she could capture him, while his Heavenly Destiny Mystical Weapon is indeed mysterious, its power depends on the one wielding it, and he preferred not to elaborate too clearly just to spare the junior sister's feelings.
The woman gritted her teeth and said, "But... it's not just us eyeing Ji Linyuan. If we act late, and someone else acts first, that guy might fall into others' hands. We, at least, come from the same Mayfly Palace, and it's just for the sake of avenging our several fellow disciples' deaths that we settle the score with him."
Qing Zhou suddenly frowned, sensing a note of unusualness and deeply hidden emotions.
He even disregarded the Dao Rhyme waves ahead, turning back to carefully scrutinize this junior sister before asking after a while:
"I remember, before the incident, it seemed you and Ji Linyuan traveled together on several Lower Realm missions?" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
The woman widened her eyes, "Senior Brother, what are you suspecting me of?"
"You know in your heart," warned Qing Zhou, "It's best if not."
Then, he waved his sleeve and turned around, saying, "Just stay beside me peacefully. If Ji Linyuan survives to the end, we will meet him in Chaohua Mountain. If he falls midway, it would also mean he is not strong enough, something both master and I would be glad to see."
The woman stamped her foot, though she knew she couldn't change her senior brother's decision.
...
In the void not far from Qing Zhou.
A man in a spotless white robe, even his hair strands glimmering softly, isolated from the outside world.
"Senior Brother, Ji Linyuan's bloodline token shows a response, and we have already locked onto its coordinates, should I notify Senior Brother Wang?"
Upon hearing the report from behind, the man glanced at Qing Zhou's location and asked:
"Where is Junior Brother Zuo?"
"Junior Brother Zuo is waiting."
"Take him to the coordinates Senior Brother Wang sent earlier; Senior Brother Wang will take action personally this time."
Hearing that the senior brother, who has already stepped into the Heavenly Monarch level, would take action personally, the reporter's eyes lit up with eagerness.
The man in the white robe calmly said, "I am here to keep an eye on the people from Mayfly Palace to prevent any ideas they might have."
...
...
Under the starry sky.
A chase and counter-ambush, announced its conclusion with a self-detonation of Heavenly King level.
Ji Linyuan grasped a primordial spirit's neck, walking out from the aftershock of the self-detonation, surveying the battlefield.
Not far away, several Martial Artists from the Yanhuang Federation gathered from all corners of the battlefield.
"Is it the sixth wave already?" Grandmaster Li Yuanli from the Li Family marveled.
At the moment, in the Land of Dao, besides searching for the Great Dao Scripture, Heavenly Kings from each faction are trying every possible method to hunt other Heavenly Kings.
But to hunt those of the same level is no easy task; even if there is a disparity in strength, there's still a possibility of being counter-killed.
Even, if a Heavenly King wanted to hide, without mastering special secret techniques, or a significant strength gap, it would be hard to even find the person.
While on their part, as long as they set a trap in a dead land, and have Ji Linyuan sit in the trap, they can wait by the crop for the rabbit, waiting for a big fish to take the bait...
"The seventh, you must count the one in the Place of Silent Annihilation too," corrected Ke Qingliu, the Grandmaster Heavenly King of the Ke family.
At the same time, he stepped forward, taking responsibility for cleanup, smoothing the surrounding Dao ripples.
He, like Ji Linyuan, stepped out of the Great Universe with the cultivation level of Heavenly Person Peak, consecutively entering the Heavenly King Master domain in [Mayfly Palace], but now Ji Linyuan has already entered the Third Layer Heaven, while he is still wandering in the First Layer Heaven.
But in fact, his breakthrough speed compared to other Heavenly Kings is already fast enough.
