Chapter 201: The Great Changes in the Strange Domain and the Means of the King of Double Happiness

In the Nest Palace, scene after scene of naked fraud is being staged in endless succession.

An unscrupulous Daoist physician is hoodwinking the Lord of Immortal Qin, promising to cure the endless agony that has tormented him for long, long years.

The result? The method is amputation!

The poor Lord of Immortal Qin, because he is too cruel, too violent, and has already transformed into a divine monstrosity, has not a single person he trusts by his side; there are only those slave-people who can be called inferior beings.

Naturally, there is no one to warn him, so he can only let Li Yu continue this deception.

If someone were to watch from beginning to end, they would surely lament that the experiences of the Lord of Immortal Qin are truly too miserable.

That he became a divine monstrosity, that he has so many filthy tentacles, was deliberately guided and retaliated by practitioners of the Spirit Venerable Path from the Warring States era, such as "Lu Sheng."

Now, it is Li Yu, a Daoist physician of the Spirit Venerable Path, who has come here to perform amputations on him.

Amputate if he must, but what is even more incredible is that every time Li Yu hacks off one of the Lord of Immortal Qin's divine tentacles, he actually manages to collect a reward.

Among them are secret elixir formulas that surprise Li Yu, as well as divine arts and secret techniques:

"Blood Age Star Lord Path, Sequence 8 【Ancient Commoner】... Sequence 7 【Secret Guard】... Sequence 6 【Tricky Monk】."

"Star Lord Possession Summoning Art... Blood Age Secret Method..."

"Ancient Sage Path, Sequence 8 【Scholar】... Sequence 7 【Mad Scholar】... Sequence 6 【Scripture Lecturer】."

"Sage Invocation Art... Eternal Memory Art... Text Interpretation Secret Method..."

"Undying Corpse God Path, Sequence 8 【Corpse Collector】... Sequence 7 【Corpse Stitcher】... Sequence 6 【Yin-Yang Master】."

"Nine Corpse-Raising Arts... Yin-Yang Eyes..."

"Thunder God Path, Sequence 8 【Thunder-Leading Daoist Boy】... Sequence 7 【Thunder-Subduing Daoist】... Sequence 6 【Fleshy-Winged Warrior】."

"Prayer to Thunder Duke Art... Nine Heavens Divine Thunder... Thunder Method Body Tempering."

Although each divine tentacle takes at least several hours to hack off.

Sometimes, it even requires an entire day.

And the process is not easy at all; after all, these seemingly normal divinities are actually not normal at all.

All the gods oppose the Lord of Immortal Qin, this human hegemon, for creating his own path to godhood, so it is impossible for them to provide any support.

Naturally, apart from a few indifferent evil gods, everything else he can devour is something the gods do not want—alienated and fallen things.

For example, that Thunder God Path!

After being hacked off by Li Yu, it traced back to its origin and gifted Li Yu three complete secret elixir formulas, plus several Thunder God secret methods.

But in reality, to obtain the thunder divinity.

The Lord of Immortal Qin suffered quite a bit; initially, he captured large numbers of those fallen, foul-smelling thunder-attribute demons to devour, and later, he even extended his demonic claws toward those practitioners of that path who had already fallen.

In the end, he obtained a thunder god tentacle of terrifying power.

Previously, when he whipped the "King of Double Happiness" who was disguised as Zhao Zhao Qiansui, he used this very tentacle.

Of course, he doesn't have it now; it was perfectly amputated by Li Yu.

Dust to dust, earth to earth; there is no need for stitching.

Although Li Yu possesses a True Soul Body that can peer into everything, he had never imagined.

That one day, he could increase the progress of his Truth Bubble through secret elixir formulas and divine arts.

One must know that these two types of information are the most precious secrets in the cultivation world.

Any faction or sect would do its utmost to keep them secret.

But here, in just half a month.

Li Yu has already obtained dozens of sequence secret elixir formulas from different paths, as well as their corresponding divine arts.

If these secrets were to fall into the hands of practitioners of other paths, they would have no good use other than selling them for money.

But falling into the hands of practitioners of the Spirit Venerable Path, Foolish God Path, Myriad Transformations Path... and the like, it is a completely different story.

Especially for an "outsider" like Li Yu, he easily thought of multiple ways to play with them.

The safeguards for his own protection have increased quite a bit.

Such a huge harvest is still nothing, because the ultimate grand prize is yet to come.

So much so that even Li Yu himself has begun to marvel at his own dumb luck this time.

"One of the Iron Laws of the Strange Domain: Risk and reward are matched."

"The fact that such a terrifying divine monstrosity is hidden within the Immortal Qin Strange Domain truly pushes the level of danger to the maximum."

"An ordinary Sequence 5, if they were to be even slightly reckless, would surely die suddenly."

"But I, a Sequence 6, have approached the very core, and even occupied the only 【Gate of Life】; obtaining these gains does not seem unacceptable."

"Although the Lord of Immortal Qin has been repeatedly amputated by me, he should also thank me."

As Li Yu muttered this thought, he also looked up at the Lord of Immortal Qin on the high seat.

Time has indeed passed for half a month.

The exterior of this terrifying divine monstrosity has undergone a very obvious change.

Its shell is still terrifying, still releasing a constant stream of divine pollution, turning the Nest Palace into a horrific evil god's lair.

But at the same time, there is a hint of the "ludicrous."

The reason is simple: his original dozen or so thick and filthy divine tentacles, which were horrifying to behold, have been hacked off by more than half by Li Yu.

Although there are no wounds, such a large change inevitably makes him look somewhat uncoordinated.

Seen from afar, the Lord of Immortal Qin looks like a dark, rotting, fleshy octopus that has been injured and lost many tentacles.

Also gone are thousands of slave-people, so much so that the originally noisy and explosive movements within the Nest Palace have diminished significantly.

Even though he has become like this, the Lord of Immortal Qin is still completely unaware; instead, he trusts Li Yu even more.

He has even developed a sense of gratitude.

A rare smile appeared on his face, which was originally stern and majestic, and at this moment, he is praising Li Yu:

"To call Minister Xu the number one divine physician of the current age is no exaggeration at all. I have been tormented by this endless agony for so many years and have always been helpless; I never expected that Minister Xu would be able to remove more than half of the pain in my body in just half a month."

"How many years has it been? This feeling of hearty, unhindered comfort—I don't know how many years it has been since I last enjoyed it."

"Minister Xu, am I about to succeed in ascending to godhood?"

This is what Li Yu was thinking when he thought the Lord of Immortal Qin should thank him.

Nearly ten filthy and terrifying divine tentacles were hacked off by Li Yu, and the obsessions attached to them were also cleared by Li Yu.

Reflected back onto the Lord of Immortal Qin himself, he naturally feels refreshed.

Within this half month, the Lord of Immortal Qin has been able to feel the "agony" born within his body decreasing day by day.

Being able to bring about such immediate curative effects, it is no wonder the Lord of Immortal Qin considers Li Yu a divine physician, a good doctor capable of completely curing him, the future True God.

This scene can be described as both absurd and bizarre.

The Lord of Immortal Qin has, of course, not been "cured" by Li Yu, otherwise he wouldn't be able to ask such insane questions.

=9+Shu_Ba

Ascending to godhood?

On the contrary, he is dying.

And this time, it is different from the deaths in the timeline cycles, collapses, and reorganizations he has experienced time and time again over the past thousand years.

This time, when Li Yu hacks off all the tentacles on his body and resolves all the obsessions within them.

This "Immortal Qin Divine Monstrosity" will welcome a true great liberation and perish completely.

And the more diligently he performs the amputations, the safer he is.

As a large amount of obsession is resolved and dissipated, while the Lord of Immortal Qin is no longer in pain or insane, his already meager "wisdom" is also plummeting.

In short!

He is becoming a fool.

A fool who still possesses powerful strength until the very last moment.

Normally, with things progressing to this point and the plan going incredibly smoothly, Li Yu should feel at ease.

But for some reason!

As the timeline continues to move forward, Li Yu feels increasingly uneasy in his heart.

In the mundane world, or for ordinary practitioners, this kind of sudden whim is mostly an illusion of worrying about nothing.

But for someone with high inspiration like Li Yu, it is very different.

While Li Yu was humoring the Lord of Immortal Qin, he muttered in his heart:

"Is something bad happening, and is it related to me?"

Once this thought arose, he immediately thought of the two powerhouses he had intercepted and harmed.

The King of Double Happiness!

The Haotian Church Master, Zhang Tang!

After these two left the Nest Palace, there has indeed been no movement from them for a long time.

One must know that even an opponent like "Shang Yang," after being harmed by Li Yu, still appeared at the final moment and almost slaughtered Li Yu in that Vortex God Strange Domain.

If a young generation Heaven's Pride Order Master is so difficult to deal with, let alone these two older generation powerhouses.

"When things are abnormal, there must be a demon!"

"Although I can obtain benefits to my heart's content here and move toward that ultimate prize, I am simultaneously trapped to death in the Nest Palace."

"Whatever the King of Double Happiness and that Haotian Bishop are doing outside, I have no way of knowing."

"Although the situation is excellent, the more it is like this, the more careful one must be, so as to avoid being overturned or counter-killed at the final moment."

Thinking of this, Li Yu's expression also became serious.

This is, after all, a Strange Domain!

This is, after all, a factional slaughter mission!

As long as the moment of safely leaving the Strange Domain and returning to reality has not arrived.

No matter how smooth things are, it is still possible to capsize.

The enemy he is currently facing means that if he capsizes, it signifies that he, Li Yu, will undoubtedly die, so no amount of caution is excessive.

"Continue to accelerate the dissection and amputation!"

"A few days early, let the 【Immortal Qin Divine Sin】 completely collapse and destroy this Strange Domain."

"At that time, regardless of whether the Immortal Qin Jade Seal can be sacrificed, one should be able to return to reality."

Once Li Yu had this thought, he immediately intended to work overtime.

However, it was precisely at this moment.

A familiar aura and a familiar voice transmission suddenly came from outside the Nest Palace.

"Fellow Daoist Li, it is me."

Hearing this, Li Yu turned around abruptly.

Sure enough, he saw a familiar azure spirit bird flying at the entrance of the Nest Palace.

Qing Nü!

After half a month, the two met again.

Seeing Li Yu look over, her pair of moist, spirited eyes showed no intention of exchanging pleasantries, and she transmitted her voice anxiously:

"Fellow Daoist Li, a change has occurred."

"The King of Double Happiness has been silent for half a month, but today he suddenly appeared with eighty percent of the Demon Star Order Masters, using his numerical advantage to launch surprise attacks everywhere, killing half of our side's reincarnators."

"The remaining reincarnators have been imprisoned by them to ensure the number does not exceed the ninety percent threshold."

"Because this is a factional slaughter mission, we reincarnators cannot leave the Strange Domain early by paying a price."

"Right now, the King of Double Happiness is entangled in a life-and-death struggle with 【Bishop Zhang Tang】; because it was a sneak attack, Bishop Zhang is at a disadvantage, and the portion of his origin will that entered the Strange Domain is about to be devoured by the King of Double Happiness."

"Once Bishop Zhang dies, I fear this Strange Domain will completely fall into the hands of the King of Double Happiness."

"You have offended him too deeply, you must be extremely careful..."
