Chapter 46: Eight Tianzuns Surround and Suppress, Full Firepower Unleashed!
Lin Potian truly had no confidence; if he wanted to leave, he had to strike first!
Taking advantage of the heat waves and smoke from the Burning Fury Fire Lotus explosion, he slammed a fist into the Heaven and Earth Barrier set up by Ye Tianzun!
Boom!
The barrier shook and trembled a few times, ripples wildly spreading across its surface in expanding circles!
"Open for me!"
Lin Potian let out a sharp shout, the veins on his fist bulging, his power like a wild dragon emerging from the sea as he threw another punch!
A loud bang!
The Heaven and Earth Barrier set by Ye Tianzun finally could not withstand this tyrannical force; cracks spread rapidly like a spiderweb, and it finally shattered with a roar!
Seizing the moment, Lin Potian pushed his speed to the limit, transforming into a streak of light and fleeing into the distance in an instant!
Behind him, a soft laugh from Ye Tianzun came: "Little fellow, I admire your courage to strike at us, but without my permission, can you leave?"
Lin Potian's heart tightened; his sixth sense told him: extreme danger!
The sky suddenly dimmed, dark clouds obscuring the sun, and a vast Immortal pressure descended from above!
Lin Potian looked up, his pupils shrinking!
A towering, massive mountain, radiating unrivaled might and Immortal Light, was suppressing him from directly overhead!
Lin Potian's breath hitched; there was absolutely no way to avoid it, no way to escape!
The voice of the Tongtian Command Spirit came out urgently: "Young Master, it's bad! This person is actually at the Half-Step Immortal King realm. Quickly use the Eternal Dao Principle, otherwise you will be suppressed on the spot by this person's divine ability, with no possibility of resistance!"
"I understand!"
In his haste, golden light erupted around Lin Potian's body, the Eternal Dao Seed broke out of his body, his hands slammed together, and he whispered: "Past, present, and future, only my thought..."
"Oh no, it's too late!"
Bang!
It was too rushed after all; the towering Immortal mountain pressed down completely, and there was not a sound left!
Dizun, standing in the distance, was stunned. Could Lin Potian actually trade blows with a Tianzun?
Although there was an element of a sneak attack, he had seen with his own eyes that it took the Tianzuns some effort to neutralize those extremely scorching fire lotuses; they hadn't chosen to take them head-on!
How could Dizun not be shocked?
He shook his head with a bitter smile: "We are both in the Emperor realm, yet the gap between me and him is already like a chasm! But why would the Tianzuns personally step in to stop him? Logically, this doesn't make sense. Don't the Tianzuns only act in Immortal wars?"
The Emperor realm and the Immortal Realm are as different as heaven and earth; never has an Immortal lowered their status to deal with an Emperor, of course!
Except for that True Immortal who cast the Meteor Emperor Curse on Lin Potian!
And if Lin Potian hadn't reached the Seventh Turn Great Emperor Peak, not far from a Red Dust Immortal, he wouldn't even have been able to break the Heaven and Earth Barrier set by Ye Tianzun!
A Red Dust Immortal's combat power is comparable to an Immortal King, but weaker than an Immortal King. It is only comparable in combat power; when all is said and done, a Red Dust Immortal is still just a True Immortal, and naturally cannot compare to a real Immortal King.
A Half-Step Immortal King is equivalent to a Half-step Red Dust Immortal, and by the same logic, is stronger than the latter.
"Stay there nicely, little fellow."
Ye Tianzun strode through the void, lotus flowers blooming with every step, as the towering Immortal mountain suppressing Lin Potian rapidly shrank and landed in his hand.
He turned and walked downward, looking at the other eight Tianzuns whose clothes were slightly soiled by the Burning Fury Fire Lotus, and said solemnly:
"Did you all see? This is the terrifying strength of cultivating the Nine-Turn Emperor Path. If Lin Potian were a true Red Dust True Immortal today, I wouldn't have been able to take him down!"
Yu Tianzun still had lingering fears and said in a deep voice: "This child's strength is already equivalent to a late-stage True Immortal; it is truly terrifying!"
Guang Tianzun nodded in deep agreement: "Indeed terrifying!"
Mei Tianzun chuckled: "Giggle, but no matter how powerful, he's no match for our big brother! Let's take this Lin Potian back to Yiyu first; I can't wait to share a bridal chamber with him! Such terrifying talent, I really want to have a child with him!"
As she finished speaking, the three Tianzuns Ye, Yu, and Guang were all silenced, the middle three covered their faces, and even the other two of the lower three didn't know what to say!
She was simply too famished!
Ye Tianzun shook his head and laughed: "Xiao Mei, your business is not urgent; Lin Potian cannot run! Once we assimilate him and obtain the method to switch to cultivating as a Red Dust Immortal, never mind once, even a hundred times—until you have his offspring—is fine!"
"Then this slave thanks big brother first!"
Mei Tianzun bowed sideways, her eyes shining as she looked at the Immortal mountain in Ye Tianzun's hand, then frowned, having discovered something!
"That's not right, big brother, why do I feel like your Immortal Artifact, the Suppressing Heaven Mountain, is acting up?"
"What?!" Ye Tianzun's smile froze, and he looked down.
His expression changed instantly; he threw the Suppressing Heaven Mountain away and shouted urgently: "Retreat quickly!"
The others didn't understand why, but followed him in a rapid retreat!
After the Suppressing Heaven Mountain landed, it instantly grew over ten thousand feet tall, but it kept trembling, and gravel rolled down from above with a rustle!
"One thought... Eternal!"
A deafening roar, carrying endless majesty and fury, erupted from deep within the mountain's belly!
Once the roar was out, the surface of the Suppressing Heaven Mountain began to crack, and finally, it burst apart with a bang, returning to its original form!
Amidst the endless smoke and dust, Lin Potian walked out step by step, put the Suppressing Heaven Mountain into the Tongtian Command, stared at the crowd, and said word by word:
"Senior, do not... force me again! Let me go, and I will return your Immortal Artifact!"
Below, Mei Tianzun's face flushed red; she was deeply captivated by the scene of Lin Potian breaking through the suppression, her eyes filled only with Lin Potian, and she couldn't help but clap: "Little fellow, you are truly amazing. Big sister won't force you; I want to have your children, take me with you!"
The scene instantly fell into a dead silence!
Lin Potian looked down, and Mei Tianzun gave him a flirtatious wink, scaring him into speaking hurriedly:
"No, no, no, forget it, I have a family!"
Lin Potian shuddered, and the momentum he had just gathered almost dissipated!
It wasn't that Mei Tianzun looked terrifying; on the contrary, except for the woman who was gradually fading from his memory, Lin Potian felt that this Yiyu female Tianzun was truly beautiful, but the problem was...
She actually had nine tails!
And he himself was of the Human Race!
More importantly, he could not forget that woman.
That immortal woman he had encountered in the back mountains one hundred thousand years ago.
A few nights of romance was one thing, but she returned a year later and dumped three children on him to raise!
Lin Potian raised the three children single-handedly, helped them marry and have children of their own—the Lin Family originated from this—and then that woman actually came back and took the three children away!
She never returned again!
When she left, she even said: "You are too weak; you have no qualifications to raise my children!"
At the time, Lin Potian was absolutely furious; the three children were his too!
Recalling the past, Lin Potian could not help but be dazed for a moment, then he gritted his teeth and muttered: "Liuli, you just keep hiding; you had better not let me find you, or I will let you know what it means to be the hardest, fastest, and strongest man in the Zhutian Wanjie!"
Liuli was precisely her name!
Lin Potian had never given up on finding her, and as for after he found her...
He would first properly re-establish his authority as a husband!
Ye Tianzun's face turned green, and he barked: "Whose side are you on, anyway? Bringing this up at a time like this, Mei, you are simply being ridiculous!"
Mei Tianzun looked displeased and muttered: "Big Brother, it's not like you don't know that the Heavenly Fox Clan is currently dwindling in numbers, and I am the only Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox left. Ancient records of our clan once said that if one mates with a person possessing the Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus, the offspring produced will be at least a Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, or even... the legendary Ten-tailed Heavenly Fox!"
"That is a guaranteed path to becoming an Immortal King!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Tianzun rolled his eyes: "Step back for now! Who among us doesn't know your little schemes? I already said we would discuss this later, discuss it later—you must wait until we have subdued Lin Potian first!"
Mei Tianzun let out an "oh," retreated unwillingly, and then shouted at Lin Potian with an excited expression: "Little one, this big sister can be a concubine, I don't mind!"
Having said that, she retreated far away!
Lin Potian looked horrified; was that something that could be said?!
He thought to himself: "Being a concubine won't really work either; if Liuli ever comes back with the children and finds out I remarried..."
Just thinking about it made Lin Potian feel terrified!
"Hu Xiaomei, you!"
Ye Tianzun was almost angered to death; they were about to lose all face for Yiyu!
He turned around and vented all his fury on Lin Potian, roaring: "This Venerable said you cannot leave, and you cannot leave! If you spout any more nonsense, don't blame us for taking you down directly!"
Hearing this, Lin Potian also had a belly full of fire; since they wouldn't listen to reason, then he would fight!
If he couldn't win, he would smash the Imperial Pass!
In any case, the Imperial Pass was already occupied by Yiyu!
The Emperor Alliance was truly too detestable; for one hundred thousand years he had blocked Yiyu at the Heavenly Gap, but after they forced him away, the Boundary Sea fell and the Imperial Pass was breached in just over ten days—were they even human?
Not to mention that there were thousands upon thousands of lower realms in the Boundary Sea, along with countless mortals and cultivators; had they just abandoned the Zhutian Wanjie like this?
He had once seen with his own eyes countless cultivators being devoured by Yiyu powerhouses and turned into blood food, and Yiyu even slaughtered mortals!
Lin Potian had long been harboring a belly full of fire; he felt the same toward the Zhutian Wanjie as he did toward Yiyu!
He did not oppose war, because war was unavoidable, but they should never, ever have engaged in indiscriminate slaughter, massacring mortals who had no power to truss a chicken!
"Since it has come to this, then I, Lin Potian, shall today dare to measure just how invincible you Heavenly Venerables really are!"
Lin Potian let out a great shout, and the Flame Dao Principle, Star Dao Principle, and Eternal Dao Principle on his body shone in unison, while thousands of Small Dao resonated together!
He drew the Heaven-Slaying Indestructible Sword and struck first!
"Junior, you are too arrogant!"
Ye Tianzun's white hair exploded outward, appearing like a god, and he unleashed a great divine ability, blasting it toward Lin Potian!
"Audacious! Lin Potian, you have narrowed your own path; challenging us is the most erroneous choice you have ever made!"
Yu, Guang, Lei, Yu, Ming, Feng, and Tu—the seven Heavenly Venerables attacked simultaneously, suppressing him!
Lin Potian fought eight enemies at once and instantly fell into a disadvantage!
It was strenuous, far too strenuous!
If any one of them had come out to duel, Lin Potian would not have feared them, but this was not a duel; Yiyu was determined to keep him here!
Mei Tianzun stood by looking worried, making a decision that went against her principles, and did not join the battle.
She did not want to attack at all; on the contrary, she was worried for Lin Potian!
"Hey, hey, hey, be careful, don't break him; whoever breaks him will have to answer to me! My Ten-tailed Little Sky Fox depends on him!"
Seeing Lin Potian completely on the back foot, Mei Tianzun almost couldn't hold back from intervening to help him!
At the same time, the three Great Emperors of The Beginning, along with all the Emperor-realm powerhouses of the Emperor Alliance...
Descended upon the Taixuan Realm!
