Guarding the River of Time-Chapter 371 - 361: One Man Surrounded Everyone—This Is What True Power Looks Like
After Brother Changshou left, Wang Zhongku’s expression also became exceedingly serious.
Now that the border defenses have been breached, it’s equivalent to the gates of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm being wide open, and perhaps... the enemy has already infiltrated the Celestial Peace Divine Realm.
This matter is extremely urgent, and it must be reported to the Domain Master at the first instance.
Before that, we must not alert the enemy, for they are in the dark while we are in the light, and we still do not know what the enemy’s target is.
...
Celestial Peace Divine Realm, Wuzi Divine Mountain.
The Wuzi Building, overlooking the earth, is located on the highest mountain of the realm, close to the clouds, far from the hustle and bustle, and is the highest place of Celestial Peace Divine Authority, the residence of the Celestial Peace Domain Master.
Wang Zhongku rushed into Wuzi Divine Mountain and finally stopped in front of a small pavilion atop the mountain.
There he saw a middle-aged man in a gray short shirt, chopping wood in the courtyard in front of the small pavilion.
This middle-aged man was dressed very plainly, and his appearance was quite ordinary, the kind that would not stand out in a crowd, with an average build, neither tall nor short.
But if one looked closely, the man’s movements in chopping wood, every swing and every cut, captivated the surrounding Immortal Charm, blending him completely with nature, forming a picturesque scene.
As Wang Zhongku approached, he clasped his fists and said, "Sir."
Upon hearing, the middle-aged man stopped his actions, looked up, and said with a smile, "I already know."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhongku was stunned and asked, "So, you already know, sir?"
The next second.
Four more figures arrived at this place.
Three men and one woman.
One was a tall and sturdy man dressed in a golden long robe, with thick eyebrows and broad shoulders, surrounded by wisps of Immortal Charm light.
Following closely was a man with a slim figure, clad in a blue Immortal robe, with eyes sharp as swords, unmatched temperament, and a white jade sword hanging from his waist.
Another was a hunched figure, with gray hair, holding a wooden cane, and cloudy eyes.
The last was a woman with hair as black as a waterfall cascading down, her eyes like cut water, tall and graceful; even her voluminous embroidered robe could not conceal her proud figure, exuding an aura of holiness and nobility, an air of unyielding majesty.
.....
At this moment, the five Vice Domain Masters of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm were all gathered here.
They looked at each other, seeing shock in each other’s eyes, indicating that they had all received news of the breach in the border defenses.
All five looked towards the ordinary-dressed middle-aged man in front of the small pavilion.
This ordinary-dressed middle-aged man was the highest authority in the Celestial Peace Divine Realm, the pinnacle of power, He Chang’an.
.....
He Chang’an stood in front of the five and said calmly: "The border defense has been completely annihilated, and the enemy has already infiltrated the Divine Domain."
Upon hearing this, the burly man stepped forward and said remorsefully, "Sir, it is my grave dereliction of duty."
The burly man was named Zhang Zhonghui, and he had always been in full charge of all border affairs.
"It’s not your fault."
"The enemy is too powerful; even if you noticed, you couldn’t have stopped them."
He Chang’an waved his hand and said, his tone still very calm, with no trace of panic in his steady eyes.
"Sir, what should we do next?" Wang Zhongku asked.
Because from Brother Changshou’s unusual behavior, it can be inferred that the opponent’s strength is probably beyond expectation....
As soon as the words fell, the sunrise ascended from the east, casting a dawn glow upon the earth.
He Chang’an looked up, gazing in a certain direction, his pupils slightly contracting: "Found him."
Saying this.
He headed in a certain direction, with the five Vice Domain Masters closely following behind.
...
At this moment, within Unrivaled City of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm.
In the small pavilion on the top floor of a tavern.
The third companion accompanied Li Qiye, drinking for an entire night. The third companion felt quite stifled, not knowing what Elder Li was waiting for.
At the moment of sunrise.
Li Qiye finished the last sip, gently placed the wine glass on the wooden table, producing a crisp, resonating sound, a ripple of Spiritual Power emanating from the bottom of the cup.
Upon sensing Elder Li deliberately exposing a trace of Spiritual Power fluctuation, the third companion was dumbfounded.
What does Elder intend to do?
"Get ready for action."
Li Qiye stood up, stretched lazily, and turned to look into the void in front.
At some point, there stood six figures in the void ahead, their gazes fixed upon the two of them.
Upon seeing these six people, Li Changyuan was also stunned.
Five in the Sacrificial Dao Seven Realm, the leading middle-aged man in Sacrificial Dao Great Perfection, infinitely close to the cultivation above Sacrificial Dao!
These were the five Vice Domain Masters of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm, and the identity of the leading middle-aged man was now evident, the ruler of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm!
This second.
The third companion finally understood who Elder was waiting for.
He was waiting for the enemy to come to him proactively!
Because Li Qiye’s dismantling of the formation was too swift, the enemy’s upper echelons were not aware at all. Hence, Li Qiye drank here to give the high echelon of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm time to react, to notice that he had already penetrated.
Then, he deliberately exposed his Spiritual Power fluctuation, revealing his position to bring out the entire upper echelon of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm to seek him.
A few breaths later.
Dozens of powerful auras gathered above Unrivaled City.
Five Immortal Emperors, twenty at the Immortal King Realm!
At this moment, the most powerful high-level force of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm gathered to surround Li Qiye and Li Changyuan.
Not only that, but all cultivators in Unrivaled City were instantly relocated, transforming the area into a battlefield, surrounded by various formations, forming a siege formation in just a few breaths.
Upon witnessing this formation, the third companion’s mind went numb.
This was like charging into the enemy’s base all alone....
Oh Elder, haven’t we gone a bit overboard here... why not wait for the big brother and others’ reinforcement before acting...
The third companion frantically muttered complaints in his heart.
Li Qiye’s gaze swept across the scene, confirming that all high-ranking officials of the Celestial Peace Divine Realm were present, he was at ease.
All have come, saving him the trouble of finding them one by one.
Li Qiye took a few steps forward.
Though surrounded by everyone, it felt as if.... he alone was encircling everyone.
.....
He Chang’an’s calm gaze also shifted upon seeing Li Qiye.
Because upon this man, he could not sense any Spiritual Power fluctuations, not even capturing a single trace.
This indicated only one possibility—that this man’s cultivation strength had reached a certain level!
"Fellow Daoist, we haven’t met before, may I know the reason you’re visiting Celestial Peace?"
He Chang’an asked Li Qiye.
Upon hearing this, Li Qiye did not respond.
He merely raised his hand slowly, and with the lift of his right hand, the space within Unrivaled City began to collapse!
