Chapter 91: A Snail (1) (1/2)
It was a struggle for the fallen Nan Huairen and his master to stand up. When Li Shuangyan stood up firmly, her face was also deathly pale. The immortal explosion from earlier was truly frightening. Under this light, no matter whether it was a Royal n.o.ble, an Enlightened Being, an Ancient Saint, or even a Heavenly King, they were merely ants and insects!
At this time, Nan Huairen and his master were in awe, watching Li Qiye. They finally understood, at this moment, that Li Qiye was a terrifying existence way beyond their imaginations.
“You dare to look at my sea of knowledge and search through my memories? This thing can’t tell life from death!” Li Qiye’s expression was as cold as is. Even though his body no longer possessed the raging Immortal Emperor’s aura, at this moment, he still caused others to s.h.i.+ver without being cold; it was as if he was a grand Immortal Emperor that was unable to be challenged.
The giant snail’s origin was heaven shattering, but unfortunately, he absolutely shouldn’t have tried to look into Li Qiye’s sea of knowledge!
Since the Desolate Era from long ago, Li Qiye fell into the Immortal Demon Grotto, and his soul was sucked out to be refined into the Dark Crow. Afterward, he was involuntarily summoned back to the Immortal Demon Grotto, and his memories were read by the existence inside.
It was not until much later that Li Qiye had the sufficient capacity to scheme against the whole world. He obtained the help of countless immortal sages to plan against the Immortal Demon Grotto and escaped the mind reading.
From then on, Li Qiye’s most dreaded fear was his sea of knowledge being opened by other people and having his memories read. After he gained power and was able to cultivate Immortal Emperors, he once again reinforced his soul, sea of knowledge, and memories.
It could be said that his soul, True Fate, sea of knowledge, and memories were reinforced by Immortal Emperors. Not only Immortal Emperor Min Ren, but also Immortal Emperor Xue Xi, Immortal Emperor Tun Ri, Immortal Emperor Ba Mie, and even the Black Dragon King all reinforced his memories.
If anyone touched his sea of knowledge or his memories, it would be equivalent to touching the reinforcements laid down by Immortal Emperors! They would absolutely be suppressed by the immortal reinforcement! What this meant was that besides himself, no one else could read his sea of knowledge or memories, not even Immortal Emperors!
This was the result of him floating through millions of years, and the fruit of hard effort throughout the eras; he was able to defend against the one matter that he feared the most!
Today, this unknowing snail dared to use a G.o.dly method to read the memories of Li Qiye, this was — without a doubt — seeking his own death!
Li Qiye commanded: “Drag him back here.”
Protector Mo and his disciple busily followed the order and left. After half a day, with loud thunderous sounds, they finally dragged the giant snail back; it was as if they were dragging a small mountain.
The giant snail dragged in front of Li Qiye was motionless.
Nan Huairen dragged him here and asked: “Oldest Brother, is he already dead?”
“I’m only temporarily sparing his life. It’ll depend on his performance.” Li Qiye commanded: “Take out the pot and the medicines, then cook him.”
Protector Mo and his disciple immediately took out the huge pot from his magical storage, and they threw all of the medicinal herbs inside. They put in the giant snail as well.
It didn’t take long before the water in the pot started to boil, and all of the medicines became a medicinal concoction.
At this moment, the giant snail slowly but eventually regained his consciousness. Even though he woke up, he couldn’t move because of the Immortal Emperor’s suppression! At this moment, he was the meat on the chopping block, leaving Li Qiye to do whatever he wanted to him!
“You, who are you?” Submerged in the pot, he struggled to have his tentacles reach outside of the water. He opened his huge eyes to look at Li Qiye. His eyes were filled with horror. This person’s memories were protected by Immortal Emperors! Who on earth was he?
Seeing the fourteen-year-old boy in front of him, this matter was simply impossible to understand. The last Immortal Emperor’s era was thirty thousand years ago. Logically speaking, this boy in front of him essentially couldn’t meet with an Immortal Emperor.
However, this boy before him had clearly not only met with an Immortal Emperor. The protection inside the boy’s sea of knowledge suppressed him in just a flash. This impression left a heavy mark on him, completely unerasable. Under this absolute power, the fear in the deepest part of his soul realized that it could only be from an Immortal Emperor!
At this moment, Li Qiye’s expression was much better. He slowly replied: “Who I am is no longer important. You have encroached upon my most important taboo.”
Unknowingly, the moment Li Qiye’s expression became normal, the other three sighed a huge breath of relief. When Li Qiye was enraged, they felt a heavy boulder taking away their breath, like a furious Immortal Emperor, instilling fear into their souls!
“You… What are you doing…?” At this time, the giant snail knew that trouble was coming, and he asked as he lost all colors.
Li Qiye leisurely said: “What else is there but to cook you in the pot? You tell me what I am doing? Cooking your longevity blood, and at the same time, cooking a nice snail soup to ease us in this hot sun. They have never tasted nor tried this kind of dish, before; maybe after they try it, they’ll never be able to forget it.”
