Chapter 221: Green Ox

Li Heng had originally planned to give up on this place and head to the next location of spatial tremors, never expecting that he could actually fish out another catch.

Compared to him, the expressions of Xuan Dao and the others were not very good. Because they could also faintly sense the aura on the other side of the passage, this was absolutely a Great Demon of the Dharma Aspect Realm, a Great Weird!

"Do you need me to make a move?"

Lie Dangkong said in a deep voice, intending to help protect Li Heng's path.

In his view, no matter how mysterious Li Heng was or how powerful his methods were, he was ultimately not in the Dharma Aspect Realm. Even if his combat power was heaven-defying and he could counter-slay a Dharma Aspect, he would still bear certain risks.

He had already advanced to the Dharma Aspect Realm and could help Li Heng eliminate the risk.

Even if he had now reconnected the Broken Road and achieved the Dharma Aspect, heaven knows how many hardships and obstacles were waiting for him in the future? Perhaps he would get stuck at some checkpoint again and stop moving forward.

On the contrary, Li Heng's potential was stronger than his.

He could walk further and higher on the Great Sun Path than he could, and was more qualified than him to save this terminally ill World!

"The fish that was fished up, of course, must be prepared by the fisherman himself."

Li Heng smiled faintly.

And as the two spoke, a figure appeared on the opposite side of the passage, hidden within the Unknown shadows, walking slowly toward them like an Inauspiciousness emerging from the depths of hell.

The passage also seemed unable to bear this figure, shaking violently, being stretched and expanded by this massive figure, causing the barriers forming the passage to be stretched, becoming thin and transparent.

Transparent to the point... that one could see the vast Void outside the passage.

The crowd's expressions were grave.

With such momentum and such a disturbance, it was definitely not an ordinary Dharma Aspect. Lie Dangkong also pondered secretly, feeling that this kind of disturbance likely had the strength of the peak of the First Realm.

He made up his mind.

As soon as he saw Li Heng fall into a disadvantage, he would strike!

This was the hope of the future and could not be allowed to fail.

Seeing such a disturbance, Li Heng was even more delighted.

The bigger the disturbance, the bigger the fish, right? He was not a low-level Fishing Old Man who would return empty-handed, and he would not be dragged into the water by a fish.

"Hahaha, interesting, truly too interesting."

"What exactly is this passage, that it could allow me to arrive in the Present World safe and sound, without suffering the slightest obstruction, nor encountering any punishment from the rules. It seems this is my own destiny."

The figure walked closer and closer, finally stepping out from the passage.

Accompanying the surge was an endless amount of Yin Qi and Magic Qi.

It rushed out from the spatial passage, sweeping through the surroundings like a tsunami, reaching the edge of the plain in almost an instant. However, it was ultimately blocked by the great net formed by Li Heng's Earth Vein Power, never spreading beyond the plain.

But because of this, the Yin Qi and Magic Qi inside the plain became dense.

Faintly forming a Ghost Domain.

The Yin Qi and Magic Qi gradually drifted away, revealing the true form of this Great Demon: it had nine-curved double horns on its head, exuding baleful energy and the wails of Resentful Souls. Its body, like a small mountain, interfered with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Principles, and the Void was faintly distorted.

This was clearly a peerless Ox Demon, extremely fierce and baleful.

"Interesting, interesting, truly interesting."

"You humans don't look weak; seeing me walk over from the Yin World, why didn't you make a move to stop me? Or is it that you have buried some trap here?"

"Like, for instance, the great net covering this place?"

The Ox Demon laughed loudly, fierce light flickering in its eyes.

"Is it just you? No one else?"

Li Heng asked aloud.

"That, naturally, there is not."

"This spatial tremor only occurred at the mountain peak on my side; this belongs to my territory, so of course no other guys came over. What, are you humans so confident that you still want to ambush other guys?"

"It seems the spatial tremor was also caused by you humans?"

"You are also lucky; it just so happened that I had just finished hacking those seafood from the Abyss Sea, those Weird things, and happened to come back to rest, and happened to run into this spatial tremor."

"But what a grand gesture, it even shook the Hanging Mountain. You wouldn't be trying to start a war between the two worlds again, would you?"

The Ox Demon did not hide it from the crowd, or rather, it disdained to hide it, making such a guess and even revealing some extremely important information.

War between the two worlds, Li Heng raised his eyebrows and pondered slightly.

It seems the Present World and the Yin World had fought before?

It's just that he didn't know who won and who lost that time.

"Alright, you have learned everything you should know; I have already satisfied your curiosity. Now, obediently accept your deaths."

The Ox Demon spoke loudly, turning into waves of sound that swept across everything in the plain. At the same time, the surrounding Yin Qi and Magic Qi gathered toward its hands, manifesting two fierce, massive axes.

"I don't know if you are arrogant or stupid; letting me through is one thing, but you actually let the Yin Qi spread out. The one who kills you is Qing Niu; remember it well before you die!"

Qing Niu's figure grew in the wind; its body, which was already as large as a small mountain, was now like a small mountain range, combined with the surrounding baleful energy and Magic Qi, it was like a Demon God.

Lie Dangkong's expression was grave; it was really as he had expected.

This demon had truly reached the level of the peak of the First Realm, and it was following the path of a Body Cultivator; this was troublesome. He knew very well that the Great Sun Path was not good at dealing with demons that practiced their bodies.

Great Sun Radiance could disperse Yin Qi and Magic Qi and break curses and Weird arts, but when facing a demon with a formidable body, it could at most play a suppressive role and could not double its special effectiveness.

Unless one had Sun True Fire.

But things like Sun True Fire required one to personally go to the Sun to harvest them; it was simply not something a mortal could touch.

Li Heng's expression was somewhat strange at this moment.

What is this? Getting bigger makes you look fierce, right?

He had initially thought it was the Daoist Supernatural Ability 'Law of Heaven and Earth', but he looked and saw that after getting bigger, its combat power did not skyrocket, it only increased a little.

On the contrary, such a large body was simply a living target.

However, Qing Niu did not care what Li Heng thought.

In its view, as long as it manifested its demon true form and charged forward holding its weapon, it could hack everything to pieces; no one could stop it, just like hacking those seafood from the Abyss Sea.

As for curses, conceptual powers, or interference with Heaven and Earth Principles? They are soft, sissy things that simply cannot break through his defense!

The Green Bull swung its axe down.

With surging Magic Qi and billowing Yin Qi, combined with a body like a small mountain range, no number of mountains would be enough for a single swing of his axe. It wouldn't be called destroying the sky, but it definitely possessed the power to destroy the earth.

A massive figure, a terrifying attack.

Wang Donglai and Wang Ling were trembling slightly.

Could they really withstand such a great demon?

Seeing that no other demons were coming, Li Heng knew he could no longer fish, so he began to close the net.

The Great Sun Dharma Image bloomed with light once more, shook violently, and began to clear the field, purifying the Yin Qi and Magic Qi of this place. At the same time, the Earth Dharma Image exerted infinite suppression force onto the Green Bull, instantly causing the Green Bull's figure to stall abruptly, the axe frozen in mid-air.

However, the Green Bull was, after all, in the Dharma Aspect Realm.

He had traded his brain for a nearly indestructible Vajra body.

After a brief freeze, he continued to hack down.

It was as if he had adapted to this suppression force.

Li Heng raised an eyebrow; so fierce?

It seemed he would also have to abandon martial virtue.

With a slight movement of his mind, a wisp of Sun True Fire manifested on his hand. After several transformations of the Great Sun Dharma Image, his Sun True Fire was no longer a "youth version," but was increasingly approaching the true Sun True Fire.

The moment it appeared, it burned a black hole into space.

Such a large, dull body; it would be a shame not to use it for roasting. He only hoped this bull demon's body could hold up and not be reduced to ashes; if so, perhaps he could still taste some steak?

Li Heng muttered to himself and tossed the flame toward the Green Bull.

After doing this.

He led the others to retreat, dodging this strike.

Only a fool would take it head-on.

After dodging this axe, the members of the Profound Dao were still shaken; they could sense that if they had truly been hit by this axe, they would have died beyond death, not even qualifying to become meat paste.

Lie Dangkong, on the other hand, remained calm.

However, he was very curious about what the flame flying from Li Heng's hand was. He had sensed it slightly with his mind just now, but before he could probe closer, that wisp of consciousness was burned away directly.

Could it really be Sun True Fire?

As this thought arose, he shook his head again, feeling he was senile; how could this be possible? Sun True Fire was within the Great Sun in the sky, located above the Nine Heavens, a peak that even those Heavenly Humans could not reach; how could Li Heng possibly possess Sun True Fire?

This thing could not be cultivated or simulated at all.

Even if it could be cultivated, the first thing it would burn is oneself; it burns everything—this was no joke.

He only hoped this flame would be of some use.

But to be honest, he was not optimistic.

Because once a Dharma Aspect is possessed, it is something that leaves nothing else to be desired. Once a Dharma Aspect is achieved, even a dull-witted Body Cultivator will have terrifying resistance to almost all attacks, with abilities tending toward the comprehensive.

Below the Dharma Aspect Realm, a Body Cultivator might have weak resistance to curses and Secret Techniques, unable to take many hits. But once they advance to the Dharma Aspect Realm and touch the Heaven and Earth Principles, they can completely run around while carrying curses.

As for abilities tending toward the comprehensive, it is even easier to understand.

You laugh at a Body Cultivator for not being able to fly and only jumping on the ground.

After a Body Cultivator advances to the Dharma Aspect Realm, they directly interfere with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Principles to achieve the fact that they can fly. What aerodynamics, flight organs, or controlling Heaven and Earth Origin Qi? They don't exist!

I can already interfere with Heaven and Earth Principles, so why would I care about these?

In fact, the Green Bull was thinking the same thing.

He was in the Dharma Aspect Realm, so his eyesight was not weak.

He could easily capture that wisp of Sun True Fire emitted by Li Heng, and then he didn't care. Just kidding, he, Old Bull, had lived in the Purgatory of Blazing Fire for a hundred years and had been roasted for a hundred years, yet he was still perfectly fine—and that was Purgatory Fire!

So what did this little flame count for?

However, out of respect for his enemy, he felt it was necessary to show some respect to this flame. The Yin Qi attached to the surface of his body rushed toward the Sun True Fire, wanting to extinguish it.

It could be considered a gesture.

Yin Qi belongs to Yin and can extinguish and infect all things of Yang.

Even exotic flames are no exception.

He had used Yin Qi to extinguish many exotic flames before; a flame he had encountered before was very similar to this one. It seemed to be called something like Yang Extreme True Flame?

Forget it, they are all just clay chickens and pottery dogs anyway.

The Green Bull thought this and hacked down at Li Heng once more.

He had already seen that this human's strength was not bad; under his first axe, he had not been stunned and had dodged it.

But this axe further interfered with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Principles, affecting space, intending to seal Li Heng so he would have nowhere to escape.

Now you can't escape, right? He sneered in his heart. Did you really think I, Old Bull, was a fool, and that I ran over here stupidly without any means?

Then...

The Yin Qi was directly ignited by the Sun True Fire, turning into fuel for the Sun True Fire, which then rapidly burned onto the Green Bull.
