Chapter 273 - Life-Protecting Envoy (1/2)
Chapter 273 Life-Protecting Envoy
There were six paths of reincarnation, and the Asura occupied one of them. It was also known as the Devil Dao.
The Asura Clan was originally the creation of the Patriarch of the Netherworld River, the master of the Blood Sea. Back then, the Patriarch of the Nether River imitated Nuwa and created the Asura Clan with his great Dharma powers. He wanted to use that to become a Saint.
Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dao did not approve of it at that time. The matter regarding Patriarch Nether River’s creation of the Asura Dao became… He made a bunch of toys for himself.
By the way, the strongest batch of Asuras that Patriarch Nether River had created, apart from the four leaders and the four Asura Generals, were the 72 Asura Princesses. Moreover, the males of the Asura race were famous for their ferocity and the females were famous for their beauty…
Tsk, I can’t be detailed about such matters.
The cultivation levels of the twelve Asura clansmen who had gone to the Sea G.o.d Sect today were not too high. A female Asura shouted, “Come out and die.” Li Changshou walked out of the hall and waved his horsetail whisk, standing proudly.
In the dark, wisps of poisonous powder had already emerged from the ground. They were colorless and odorless as they quietly surrounded the twelve Asuras.
Since he did not know how resistant the Asura was to medicine, Li Changshou especially increased the dosage by several times of the original amount.
To be safe, Li Changshou considered that the Asura lived in the Blood Sea. Perhaps they were already immune to all poisons. The 36 miniature killing arrays were already ready to be activated at any time… Due to the fact that Li Changshou had survived the Golden Immortal Tribulation, the poisonous powder, poisonous pills, and even the batch of paper effigies were all eliminated. At that moment, he would not feel the pinch no matter how much he used them.
It was almost impossible for Li Changshou to engage in a hot-blooded battle and risk his life.
The idea of not being rash and hot-headed was his service motto.
“If the enemy is strong, I will run. If the enemy is weak, I will run.” That was his service tenet.
He insisted on using the most direct truth and logic to deal with the enemy and gave them a free funeral service. That was his usual att.i.tude!
For example, things like talking too much, bathing in lotuses, and shouting out the name of his moves… were unlikely to happen. Therefore, as soon as the twelve Asuras had just stepped through the ruins of the Sea G.o.d Temple, the eight weaker Asuras behind them moved in unison and fell forward weakly.
The four four-armed Asuras only had time to turn around to look at their companions before collapsing to the ground…
Four strong paper effigies immediately emerged from the ground. They wanted to gather the half-dead corpses and quickly destroy them.
Suddenly, Li Changshou’s eyebrows twitched. He lowered his head and looked at the crack on the ground that had been split open by the saber beam.
The four paper effigies immediately retreated to the corner.
Cosmic fluctuations appeared below the crack. Clearly, an expert was secretly casting a spell and had opened the teleportation door.
Who is this expert?
Li Changshou immediately thought of Jin Chanzi.
When he was fighting in the East Ocean, he had secretly seen that Jin Chanzi was good at the Cosmic Dao technique. He could cut open the universe at the bottom of the ocean and escape into the void.
However, it was not wise to directly mention the Western Sect at this juncture.
Li Changshou was still very calm. He immediately ordered the Divine Envoys outside the temple to evacuate the mortals.
Even if the temple was destroyed, it would not be a loss to him as long as he did not add negative karma.
The sound of chains rubbing against rocks came from the crack. The ground began to tremble. Four majestic figures wrapped in pitch-black chains slowly flew out from the bottom of the crack. They looked like demons that had crawled out of the ground.
They were four Eight-Armed Asuras. Their auras were comparable to that of early-stage Golden Immortal cultivators!
Not only that, sixteen sanguine vortexes appeared in the sky. Men and women of the Asura race, who were clad in battle armor, flew out from the vortexes. Their cultivation levels ranged from Heaven Immortal to Perfected Immortal.
Li Changshou focused his gaze and saw that it was indeed ferocious males and beautiful females…
Ahem, that was not important.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of sanguine figures were standing in the air above the Sea G.o.d Temple. The sixteen sanguine vortexes were slowly spinning. Li Changshou’s gaze was fixed on the four Eight-Armed Asuras. Li Changshou said calmly, “Aren’t the Asuras worried that I will settle the scores in the future?”
A silver-haired, eight-armed man’s eyes were filled with dead silence. He still spoke in the common language of the Primordial World, but he was not very fluent. He whispered, “We… have nothing to lose… Sea G.o.d, let me borrow your life.”
As soon as he finished speaking, beams of sanguine light appeared in the sky. Over a thousand weapons were gathering the power of Asura. Waves of aura locked onto the old immortal in front of the hall.
They were all emotionless killers!
That body was born from slaughter. It condensed the power of the blood sea and forged the body of an Asura. Today, it was going to kill the Sea G.o.d and make the Asura race important… “Hold on!”
Li Changshou suddenly shouted. Flames ignited all over his body, and his body was instantly engulfed by the True Samadhi Flames. In the blink of an eye, he turned into ashes!
The hundreds of Asuras in the sky who were about to attack, as well as the four Eight-Armed Asuras on the ground who were prepared to wave their chains, could not help but be stunned.
Did he burn himself? The group of Asuras looked at each other. They had fought hundreds of battles in the sea of blood. They had killed countless ferocious beasts and ferocious ghosts, but they had burned themselves before the battle even began… They only saw it once.
A female Asura in the sky asked in the language of the Asura race, “General, what should we do?”
The eight-armed Asura general who was the leader said, “This is an incarnation. Capture some humans and use the blood of human mortals to pollute his statue. Force his main body to appear.”
“Okay!”
Immediately, a few Asuras turned around in the air and were about to dive towards Anshui City.
However, a chuckle sounded in real-time and entered the ears of the Asura… “Don’t waste your effort. Don’t you know that only my incarnation is here?”
As he spoke, Li Changshou slowly walked out of the hall.
Although he did not understand the Asura language just now, he roughly understood what the other party meant. He had no choice but to come out.
He was only trying to stall for time.
In Anshui City, his Divine Envoy and the mortal soldiers guarding the Sea G.o.d Temple were quickly evacuating the mortals around the Sea G.o.d Temple.
Previously, Li Changshou had considered all kinds of situations. He had also practiced that emergency evacuation many times in advance. Although the mortals were alarmed by the Asura aura and were mostly fl.u.s.tered, their overall escape speed was not slow. There was no situation where the old and young were left behind.
When Li Changshou’s paper effigy attracted the attention of the Asuras, arms kept emerging from the tree branches outside the Sea G.o.d Temple. They secretly put down immortal beans filled with immortal power…
In front of the hall, Li Changshou continued to argue with the group of Asuras.
“Are you all so willing to be used as p.a.w.ns? Listen to the dragon roars in the sky. The experts of the dragon race are already on their way here.”
The leading Eight-Armed Asura took a step forward, and the ground beneath his feet kept trembling “Being a p.a.w.n… is better than being abandoned!”
A sharp glint suddenly appeared in the Asura General’s listless eyes. Two thick arms bulged from his left and right. A pitch-black chain as thick as the diameter of a bowl shot towards Li Changshou’s incarnation like a python!
That attack was just a test. It was not strong.
Li Changshou’s eyebrows relaxed. He took a few steps forward as if he was taking a stroll in the courtyard. He waved the horsetail whisk in his hand and drew an irregular circle. A red and blue Yin-Yang image appeared in the circle and steadily blocked the chain.
The Yin-Yang Image turned a little, and the chain, which contained immense power, went limp. It fell weakly onto the steps in front of the hall and made a tinkling sound.
Li Changshou’s paper effigy, slowly walked forward. With every step it took, a pure white lotus flower would appear under its feet.
After seven steps, it was already standing in the air in front of the hall.
A gentle breeze blew past, and his white hair, which was tied up with, danced gently with the horsetail whisk. His wide-sleeved white robe swayed as well. The old immortal stood in the air and faced the hundreds of Asuras. He was still chatting and laughing as he said calmly, “I will give you two options. I will retreat today. I will not pursue the matter of you disturbing my peace. If you insist on invading today, I will go to the Blood Sea in the future and settle this matter with the Asura race.”
“Fight!”
