Chapter 539: An Ordinary Daoist

~8 min read 1,414 words

Li Heng continued to command the Source Power grindstone to annihilate the monsters and the Calamity, and the Source Power and Golden Source Points began to soar. Then, he commanded the red-haired monster to return to its normal size and teleported in front of Xuantian.

"Friend Xuantian, why haven't you left?"

He looked at Xuantian with feigned surprise and smiled.

Xuantian's face stiffened, and he felt helpless inside. Did Li Heng not have any idea why he hadn't left? Was he really asking when he already knew the answer? However, he also knew that Li Heng was not someone he could afford to provoke right now.

After a moment of silence, he spoke respectfully.

"Forgive me, Friend; I failed to recognize a true master!"

The scene of Li Heng swallowing the Calamity and monsters whole just moments ago still gave him quite a shock, and his mind had not yet fully calmed down; he remained stunned.

At the same time, he also deeply realized Li Heng's power.

Yet, he was very puzzled.

The strength of this Red-haired Divine before him had clearly reached the category of a Supreme, so why had he never heard of him? Having been chased around by Calamities and monsters for all these years, he could be considered to have traveled the Great Void, so why had he never seen this person?

Moreover, this Red-haired Divine claimed to come from that glowing World, but although that World was vast and could serve as a Void Lighthouse, it shouldn't be able to give birth to a Supreme, right?

"What are you saying, Friend? There is no need for forgiveness."

Li Heng shook his head and smiled.

Xuantian was stunned again for a moment; he felt that was well said. However, could he please cancel the power restraining him? The pressure in his heart was immense!

He was somewhat on the verge of a breakdown.

Just as this thought arose, Xuantian felt his whole body loosen again and could move freely; the invisible force that had been suppressing him and pinning him to the spot vanished instantly.

He breathed a sigh of relief, having finally escaped a disaster.

It seemed this terrifying Supreme did not intend to kill him. After all, if he wanted to kill him, there would be no need to undo the restraint.

"Xuantian thanks you, Friend; may I ask for your honorable title?"

He bowed respectfully, keeping his posture very low.

If it weren't for the fact that both were Sacred, he would have wanted to call him "Your Excellency" or "Senior." After all, although they shared the same Sacred Essence, the gap in power was too great.

One could even say it this way.

Others are Sacred, but he just wants to be Sacred.

"What honorable title? I am just an ordinary, idle Daoist, surnamed Li, named Heng," Li Heng said with a smile, speaking the absolute truth. He wasn't his own Divine Dao avatar, so where would he get an honorable title?

Although he couldn't be considered a follower of Daoism, since he had already opened up the Three Pure Heavens, calling himself a Daoist was fine.

Of course, Xuantian did not believe him.

How could such a Supreme not have an honorable title? He figured this Supreme must think he was not qualified to know it. He thought to himself, feeling somewhat bitter.

Since you are a Supreme, why bother playing the pig to eat the tiger? Wouldn't it be better to show your strength openly? He lamented in his heart, only feeling that he had been blind.

"Let me ask you, you are on this journey to find an old friend, right?"

Li Heng changed the subject and asked.

Xuantian found it a bit strange why he would suddenly ask about this, but facing this terrifyingly powerful Supreme, he answered honestly. "That is correct. The Xuantian Dajie I opened was destroyed by the Calamity Wave, so I could only wander the Great Void again. With no intention of settling down anywhere, I decided to follow the light to find an old friend."

"What is your old friend's name?"

Xuantian was taken aback and replied.

"His name is Xuanyang. Do you happen to know him?"

He asked, with a mix of surprise and delight.

Li Heng nodded; so that was it.

"Then I do know him. He is indeed in that glowing World; you may go and find him. I won't say much more here. By the way, do not make things difficult for this shell..."

He had completely annihilated the Calamity monster wave.

The words had just fallen.

Xuantian discovered that the Red-haired Divine before him had his strength plummet; the terrifying aura from just a moment ago instantly vanished, and the fierce, blood-colored eyes dimmed, becoming chaotic.

Finally, it fell directly to the Half-step Divine level.

It could be called falling from heaven into the Abyss.

In an instant, he also saw through the origin of this red-haired monster; its initial origin was nothing more than a mere Heavenly Human Corpse that had gained sentience.

At this moment, Xuantian shivered instantly.

It wasn't even an avatar, just using someone else's body to exert power, and a body with only the strength of a Heavenly Human at that, yet it could exert the power of a Supreme?

Just how strong was that person?!

He did not know, but he dared not stay where he was, flying at full speed toward the direction of the Xianshi Tiandi, while the mentally chaotic red-haired monster continued to walk along the Reincarnation Path...

In the Xianshi Tiandi, Li Heng tallied the gains from this trip.

He had originally only intended to test these Calamities and monsters from the Reincarnation Path, but he hadn't expected to wipe them all out in one go. After completely annihilating them, he harvested ten thousand Golden Source Points, and combined with his original eight thousand, his total number of Golden Source Points had now reached eighteen thousand!

However, according to his intuition, the subsequent development and strengthening of the Three Pure Heavens would basically require Golden Source Points in powers of ten. If it cost one thousand to open up a firmament, then it would cost ten thousand to develop and strengthen it, with no upper limit.

So, in a sense, it was still not enough.

After all, his current Three Pure Heavens had the Grand Clarity Realm Dachi Heaven and the Supreme Purity Realm Yu Yu Heaven; eighteen thousand Golden Source Points could only allow him to develop one of those firmaments.

However, Li Heng was not in a hurry.

Right now, eighteen thousand Golden Source Points were neither too many nor too few, still in an awkward position. He planned to wait a bit longer and was not in a rush to spend them immediately. Especially during this most critical period when the Lighthouse Project had begun, he had to have enough Golden Source Points to resist the unfathomable malice from the Great Void.

The extent of a temporary boost using Source Power was far higher than the extent of a permanent boost using Source Power.

In any case, there were already two Source Power Hunting Grounds in the Great Void.

One was the True Realm, and the other was the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation.

He had locked onto the space-time coordinates of the True Realm, so it couldn't run. On the contrary, the situation in the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation was currently unclear, and it was necessary for him to go and take a look to prevent any accidents. With monsters and Calamities gathering, he absolutely could not let this excellent Source Power Hunting Ground get away.

Just think, the monsters and Calamity Wave that ran out of the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation were already worth ten thousand Golden Source Points and an immeasurable amount of Source Power, so wouldn't there be even more inside the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation?

And the red-haired monster on the Reincarnation Path was his vanguard!

After deciding on the subsequent plan.

Li Heng sat cross-legged in the Great Void, as still as an old monk in meditation, consolidating the gains from his previous advancement, intending to thoroughly master the two elements and subsequently sense the method for obtaining the third element through the mysterious void.

At this moment, the light of the Present World extended infinitely outward, finally reaching the profound Unknown Realm, and began to illuminate the Wuqiong Weizhi!
