Chapter 187 He is in control of disasters, so how can he still be a disciple?

Chapter 187: He’s already in control of calamities, how can he still be a Disciple?

Looking at the System’s prompt, Jiang Li was utterly astonished.

He never expected the Cultivation Technique, the Supreme Profound Azure Divine Heart Sutra, to bring him such a huge surprise. This new Qi Refining Method, after Fusion and sublimation, showed no change in cultivation advancement compared to the original Supreme Divine Thunder Induction Heart Sutra, but in other aspects, the changes were immense.

Heavenly Dao information goes without saying; it’s similar to an intelligence System.

The original Qi Refining Method required communicating with the Heavenly Will to borrow power from heaven and earth, while the new Qi Refining Method bypassed this process and could directly borrow the power of the Heavenly Dao.

To put it simply, the original version was like a veteran employee of a corporation, on excellent terms with the CEO, able to visit the CEO’s office at any time; the new version was like becoming a founding elder, owning 1% of the corporation’s shares, and able to wield one’s power through the corporation’s strength.

The difference in status between the two was clear at a glance.

Jiang Li thought to himself, “This human-heaven Fusion is wonderful! The deeper the assimilation with the Heavenly Dao Will, the more the Heavenly Dao will lean towards the Qi Refining Method’s way of thinking, becoming a part of the Qi Refining Method. By then, he will be the Heavenly Dao’s father, the local emperor of this world, getting whatever he wishes. The Ten Thousand Desires Demon Lord? Just a younger brother.”

Amidst his musings, Jiang Li moved.

At this moment, he was in the Qi Refining Method’s Hosting state, with a flood of Heavenly Dao information rushing in, overwhelming Jiang Li.

He could clearly feel that the System’s memory capacity for receiving information was in no way inferior to the Heavenly Dao’s; otherwise, it wouldn’t be able to impose its own beliefs on the Heavenly Dao Will, altering the Heavenly Dao’s stance of “regarding all things as straw dogs.”

At the same time, the cold, mechanical electronic voice sounded again.

“Ding, the Cultivation Technique ‘Supreme Profound Azure Divine Heart Sutra’ is filled with righteous indignation, unable to stand idly by as the common people of the world suffer deeply. It has thus made a vow of justice, determined to eradicate all foreign races in the Lands of Jiuzhou, using the Yao blood of the foreign races to draw a boundary of death across the Nine Provinces, encircling them with this, deeply engraving it into the hearts of the foreign races.”

As the System’s prompt faded, Jiang Li once again entered Heavenly Dao Envoy mode.

This mode continued the Savior mode, or rather, it was an upgraded version of the Savior mode, only triggered when encountering foreign races. In this mode, for every foreign race killed, the belief in justice… oh no, the Heavenly Dao belief would accelerate its growth, the Lightning Qi progress would surge, and it could also condense Human Race Luck, opening the path to the Human Dao Supreme.

The next second, Jiang Li ascended directly into the sky.

Wherever he passed, clouds dispersed and fog scattered. Law runes and chains once again encircled his body, and golden lotuses naturally bloomed beneath his feet, walking amidst the radiant light.

It was incredibly awe-inspiring.

Such a sight left the Nascent Soul-stage high officials in the imperial court utterly shocked, exclaiming inwardly, “Damn, is it that easy to comprehend the ultimate truths of heaven and earth and enter the Supreme Induction state these days? Even now, that’s a Domain only accessible to Soul Transformation or even Void Refining Cultivators.”

Yet, the Heavenly Mystery Holy Son could enter it anytime, anywhere, as if the Heavenly Dao belonged to him.

“With the Saint here, at least the imperial city can be saved. Heaven bless the ethereal.”

Emperor Zhangwu murmured, following him up immediately.

The other civil and military officials, and even the Crown Prince, also struggled to keep up, wanting to witness the Heavenly Mystery Holy Son’s demeanor… At that time, the imperial city was in Chaos.

Under the instigation of certain individuals, acts of arson, killing, and looting occurred in every street and alley, with screams and terror everywhere.

Those creating Chaos were all Cultivators, including members of aristocratic families, Loose Cultivators, and even high officials of the imperial city who were fanning the flames of unrest, all for a chance to survive.

In this Yao Race trial, Mortals and Cultivators were equally in danger.

High-level Cultivators became tools for the trial’s competition; the value of every Golden Core and Nascent Soul Cultivator was marked, making them prime targets for the Yao Race.

As for Mortals, there was no need to even mention them.

They served as “Spirit Stones” in this trial; when their Qi and blood weakened, they would consume a batch of humans to replenish themselves, both recovering and enhancing their strength.

Mortals couldn’t save themselves, but high-level Cultivators could.

They created Chaos to lighten the burden on the Yao Race members, and the moment the Yao Race Prodigies breached the city, they could opportunistically become traitors and survive.

Countless common people hid in their homes, trembling, silently praying for this disaster to pass quickly.

Some remembered the “Immortal” from a few days ago.

They knelt with clasped hands, praying for the Immortal to once again display Divine Might and save the imperial city from its plight.

And then… the Immortal truly came.

Above the sky, ten thousand rays of colorful light shone, and a thousand auspicious streaks appeared, with golden lotuses fluttering everywhere.

The intense phenomenon pierced through houses, casting a golden halo representing hope, scattering it into every household.

Jiang Li stood in the Void Realm.

Heavenly sounds lingered.

The profound Dao sounds, using heaven and earth as a medium, resonated throughout the entire imperial city.

“All evildoers shall be executed.”

Upon his words, above the Nine Heavens, lightning began to flash everywhere.

These lightning bolts did not appear in the form of tribulation clouds, but rather generated in the Void Realm. The Lightning Tribulation seemed to be entwined by countless shattered Dao runes and chaotic Law threads, presenting a color of Chaos annihilation.

Nine colors intertwined, evolving into a Golden Core calamity.

The astonishing phenomenon instantly swept across the entire imperial city.

Whether it was the high-level Cultivators currently creating Chaos, the common people hiding in their homes, or the Yao Race Prodigies currently attacking the city, all stopped their actions and looked up in shock.

What… was this?

They saw that the entire imperial city was enveloped by lightning, extending over thirty thousand li. Looking up, they could no longer see the sky, only the Dao Law runes intertwined in the firmament, emitting destructive fluctuations that made one’s heart palpitate.

“It’s Jiang Li, it must be Jiang Li who has come out of seclusion.”

Towards the city gate, Li Xi excitedly clenched her fists.

Her delicate hands, however, were not slow at all. She formed hand seals, and circles of healing light swept out, treating the battle-damaged defending soldiers and Immortal Sect Disciples.

In just a breath, the originally dispirited and bleeding soldiers became lively again. Their wounds healed at a visible speed, their pale faces turned rosy, and their Qi completely recovered.

They were overjoyed in their hearts.

This “Fairy Li” from the Immortal Sect was truly too formidable.

With one hand healing and the other restoring magical power, she completely elevated their strength by more than one level. The Yao Race Prodigies they were fighting gradually became exhausted as time passed, while they fought with increasing vigor, already able to exchange several blows head-on with these Yao Race Prodigies.

Such Divine Ability was truly astonishing.

Hearing this, Murong Qing emerged from her human-heaven induction state. Her power, which had soared to the Late Stage Golden Core, suddenly receded, falling back to the Late Stage Foundation Establishment. Her fair face appeared even paler. Li Xi reached out to support her, healing her while worriedly saying, “Qingqing, frequently communicating with the Heavenly Will and pre-empting Golden Core Stage power like this is too risky. Jiang Li has already come out of seclusion, you should rest.”

“It’s fine. The process of communicating with the Heavenly Will is also deepening my understanding of the Heavenly Will. Being able to pre-empt power from a major Realm indicates that my connection with the Heavenly Will is closer. However… since he has come out of seclusion, I suppose I truly don’t need to act anymore.”

Murong Qing’s voice was cool and clear. She gazed at the sky full of calamity, a hint of appropriate confusion flashing in her eyes: she suddenly felt as if she had also established a connection with Jiang Li? This connection was not a Dao Companion relationship, but a misconception that after she communicated with the Heavenly Will, the Heavenly Will was Jiang Li.

In another direction, Zhao Qingxuan laughed loudly. The Martial Dao Will behind her appeared in Jiang Li’s likeness. Her laughter was spirited and piercing, carrying the heroic momentum of breaking through all obstacles: “The Saint has come out of seclusion, victory and defeat will be decided immediately.”

As she spoke, a Peak Golden Core Yao Beast was pierced through by a long spear entwined with a golden Dragon soul phantom. She swept her leg, kicking its corpse away like trash.

The group of Yao were furious beyond measure.

Damn the Tianxuan Holy Land! One healer had endless healing power; one small Foundation Establishment Cultivator transformed into a Golden Core Cultivator and erupted with battle strength far exceeding a normal Nascent Soul-stage; and the last one was even more outrageous, with only Early Stage Golden Core cultivation, she also erupted with power stronger than a typical Nascent Soul, and the Martial Dao Will behind her was even more domineering, making them feel like they couldn’t lift their heads.

A mere Tianxuan Holy Land was so troublesome.

Listening to these three Human Race female Cultivators, it seemed they knew the origin of the lightning in the sky.

A being capable of erupting such astonishing phenomena surely couldn’t still be a Disciple, could it?

Many Yao Race Prodigies thought this, intensifying their attacks.

As long as the guy who caused the heavenly phenomena wasn’t a Disciple, they had nothing to fear. Even if it was a war of attrition, they could wear down these Immortal Sect Disciples until their magical power was exhausted.

At the same time, Jiang Li’s Divine Sense also discovered the whereabouts of the three women. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, “Since they’re fine, then you, Qi Refining Method, can cause a huge ruckus. I wouldn’t mind if you turned this imperial city upside down.”
