Chapter 271: Chapter 260 The Great Era Has Begun_i
The skeleton panicked, as Li Cheng was impervious to persuasion, and due to the soul’s inability to fully fuse with the Divine Bone, it was nearly at its limit.
Moreover, according to Li Cheng, his main body wasn’t even capable of defeating him—what was he to do?
Li Cheng had no intention of sparing the avatar of the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor, who had transformed into a member of the Bone Clan, and he didn’t believe a word about the secrets of Grand Venerable Bai Jie.
Because for the sake of his daughter, Grand Venerable Bai Jie dared to traverse the Long River of Time, sending his daughter to the future for protection, and if he had been a peerless powerhouse from ages past who entered this era with his Divine Soul, he should have been free of concerns, unbound, in order to return to the peak.
The skeleton’s words were no doubt meant to sow discord, seeking revenge for
the countless avatars Bai Jie had slain.
As for the secret of becoming a deity in the Three-way Abyss, Li Cheng did find some truth in that, because the Divine Path was within the Three-way Abyss.
To become a deity, one likely needed to traverse the Divine Path.
Unfortunately, the Three-way Abyss had been destroyed, and the status of the Divine Path was unknown. The Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor had spent countless years in the Three-way Abyss without finding it, otherwise, he would have surely become a deity.
Or perhaps he had found the Three-way Abyss, but because his Laws were not yet complete, he couldn’t enter.
“Your secrets won’t buy your life,”
Li Cheng’s words made the skeleton feel as if it had fallen into an ice cave—it was done for!
Grinding its teeth once more, the skeleton raised its voice, “This Divine Bone primarily cultivates the soul’s path. Through this bone, I can see your origins!” Li Cheng was stunned for a moment, his actions paused, as he stared intently at the skeleton, “What did you say?”
Could it be that this guy could see he was a transmigrator?
The skeleton breathed a sigh of relief and hastily said, “Inspect your own soul.
Aren’t there places in its depths that you can’t probe? Those have been sealed by someone using heaven-reaching methods!”
“Everyone should have a clear and complete understanding of their own soul, but you can’t, canyon?”
“Furthermore, your soul carries the breath of two different worlds, which means your soul was split and grew in two worlds, only to be brought back together later.”
“Don’t you want to know who split your soul, and who made it whole again?” “Don’t you want to know who left that seal within the depths of your soul, and what exactly is sealed?”
The skeleton’s words caused Li Cheng to furrow his brows.
In the depths of his soul, there were indeed places he could not probe; Li Cheng had always thought that was a human secret that would require sufficient cultivation to understand.
The two different world auras he mentioned, without a doubt, were due to his transmigration.
As for the soul having been split…
Li Cheng fell silent, the implication being that he hadn’t transmigrated, but that his soul had been restored?
“I’m right, aren’t I? You harbor a great secret within you that even you aren’t aware of!”
Suppressing the turmoil within him, Li Cheng slowly lifted his head to look at the skeleton, but before he could speak, the skeleton hastily said, “This Divine Bone has existed for countless ages and is likely a terrifying deity from several epochs ago. Through these eye sockets, how could the soul of an Immortal Emperor escape notice?”
Li Cheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, “So you saw that Grand Venerable Bai Jie
isn’t from this era?”
The skeleton hesitated slightly, then nodded, “Precisely!
That moment of hesitation told Li Cheng this statement was a lie.
After a brief contemplation, Li Cheng struck with full force!
“Alt! You’re not honorable…”
“I never promised you anything. This Divine Bone, I’m taking it!”
The Rule of Fire surged, driving the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame into the Array Pattern, causing the entire barrier to emit an incredibly terrifying aura.
Within the formation, the skeleton gradually calmed down, its soul wiped out!
Only a Ten Thousand Aspects Soul Seal floated out from the Divine Bone. Li Cheng casually broke the Formation and channeled his full power into the Judge Pen. Instantly, all the death energy rushed toward the Judge Pen, entering it.
On the Divine Bone, the death energy also swiftly converged, sinking into the bone and making the already dark and jade-like bone even more mysterious.
“The Formation has been broken; go see what happened!” Outside the mansion, Ao Qianchi’s expression tightened, and he hurriedly rushed in.
“Don’t panic, the death energy is contracting, indicating that Li Cheng has dealt with that person and conveniently broken the Formation,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said with a smile.
When the two arrived, Li Cheng was inspecting the Divine Bone that had turned into a member of the Bone Clan but lacked any consciousness.
“Eh? It really has been resolved. This skeleton… the death energy it contains is terrifying!” Ao Qianchi’s voice was heard.
Li Cheng gave a fist salute to Ao Qianchi, “This member of the Bone Clan was possessed by the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor, but now its soul has been extinguished.”
Ao Qianchi’s eyes showed surprise; he had guarded for many years and was never able to deal with this entity, only able to suppress it with a formation. He didn’t expect that in such a short time, Li Cheng would have resolved it!
Taking a deep breath, Ao Qianchi said, “I see, Grand Venerable Bai Jie didn’t say much back then, it seems he used this member of the Bone Clan as bait, waiting for the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor to take the bait.
“Elder Ao, don’t blame me for disrupting the Grand Venerable’s plans,” Li Cheng said with a smile.
Ao Qianchi also smiled, “How could I? With the Grand Venerable yet to return, the Formation would not have held much longer.
Pausing for a moment, Ao Qianchi then asked, “What do you plan to do with this skeleton?”
“It’s a Divine Bone; naturally, I’ll take it with me,” Li Cheng said.
Ao Qianchi frowned, “Are you sure? Although it’s a Divine Bone, it has been filled with death energy… I forgot, even death energy is beneficial for the cultivation technique you practice.”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan shifted the subject, “Now that this place is incident-free, what are your plans? Would you like to come with us to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect?”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan had already discussed the matter of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect with Ao Qianchi.
Ao Qianchi shook his head, “I haven’t returned to the Immortal World for over a hundred thousand years; I want to see how it is now.”
