Chapter 446: Can You Count for Me? (2)
God Forbidden Mountain, was a forbidden land in the Human World, when viewed from high above, it looked like a huge azure dragon coiled around the earth, extremely awe-inspiring.
Within a radius of hundreds of miles around God Forbidden Mountain, there was no sign of human presence. Only beyond a hundred miles were there signs of human habitation, which was perfect. Under the glow of the sunset, a few candlelights illuminated the way home.
As long as people didn’t enter the God Forbidden Mountain, there was no danger at all. They could live their whole lives without encountering any danger.
Of course, the premise was that the Emperors who had sealed themselves in the God Forbidden Mountain were undamaged and did not need to come out to replenish their origin energy.
However, such a thing would not happen even once in a million years, so for ordinary immortals, the area around the God Forbidden Mountain was actually a good place to hide away.
Li Qingshan ignored them, his gaze fixed on the God Forbidden Mountain. Indeed, its momentum was majestic. Between the mountains, there were the patterns of Emperors, formations, as well as naturally formed Dao Patterns intertwined, forming layers upon layers of divine prohibitions.
So this majestic mountain range was also known as the God Forbidden Mountain by the people of the Immortal Plane.
These divine prohibitions were all different, some specialized in slaughter, some specialized in teleportation, some were deep in the marshes, and some were extremely poisonous…
For example, Kunshan, who came seeking help, was afflicted by extremely poisonous divine prohibitions. Even Crimson Immortals couldn’t resist it. It was thanks to Li Qingshan saving him that he didn’t die in agony.
All these various factors combined to create terrifying rumors about the God Forbidden Mountain, and people dared not approach it for fear of encountering danger.
But for Li Qingshan, God Forbidden Mountain was no different from any other mountain in the world.
He directly entered the feared God Forbidden Mountain, stepping on those terrifying divine prohibitions.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The divine prohibitions were stepped on, instantly triggering energy and resonance. The divine prohibitions on this mountain peak all lit up, and then crazily attacked Li Qingshan.
These attacks, even Crimson Immortals, would shed tears when they saw them. They were extremely terrifying.
But Li Qingshan just raised his hand lightly, and then between his palms, with a boom, he suppressed the divine prohibitions from all directions.
“Hold it back!” Li Qingshan said coldly.
His words followed the law.
These erupting divine prohibitions were directly suppressed back, as if time were flowing backward, returning to their original state.
Li Qingshan strolled casually here.
God Forbidden Mountain was not dangerous to him at all.
“Where is Xia Wuji?” Li Qingshan looked around, and the primordial spirit of the Emperor spread out instantly, instantly enveloping the entire God Forbidden Mountain. He wanted to find Xia Wuji.
The primordial spirit of the Emperor was vast and unreserved, directly shrouding the God Forbidden Mountain. The next moment, it alarmed the sleeping Emperors. They vaguely had a limit to their revival, but Li Qingshan’s primordial spirit of the Emperor suppressed them, like a dark cloud pressing down, covering the heavens and the earth.
“Continue sleeping. Now is not the time for you to wake up.” Li Qingshan said firmly, not letting them awaken, directly suppressing them. These people were waiting for the appearance of The Supreme Path. If they woke up now, it would be a loss.
Under Li Qingshan’s suppression, this group of restless Emperors who wanted to revive slowly stopped.
At this time, Li Qingshan looked at a mountain peak within the God Forbidden Mountain.
This mountain peak was not tall, surrounded by taller peaks, but its summit had a palace, very majestic. However, perhaps because of its age, many parts of it had begun to decay, dust covered the ground, and it was covered with spider webs.
Li Qingshan looked over there because in front of this palace, a person was hanging.
A naked man.
His buttocks were bare as he endured the scorching heat of the sun. His hands were tied up, and his breathing was low. His back was covered in wounds, making him look extremely miserable.
He was Xia Wuji.
Li Qingshan noticed him, fortunately, he was facing the palace, where there was a skeleton, with soul flames flickering in its skull, staring at Li Qingshan, who entered the God Forbidden Mountain.
Li Qingshan unabashedly scanned the God Forbidden Mountain with his Emperor’s primordial spirit, and naturally, the other party sensed him but didn’t act rashly.
Li Qingshan found Xia Wuji, took a step forward, and came to the dilapidated palace, standing in front of Xia Wuji.
Xia Wuji, who was hanging there, barely opened his eyes, and when he saw Li Qingshan, he suddenly grinned weakly, and said hoarsely, “Brother, long time no see.”
“You seem to be living quite a miserable life now,” Li Qingshan said calmly with his hands behind his back.
Seeing Xia Wuji still alive, Li Qingshan felt relieved. As for his current somewhat miserable state, for Xia Wuji’s tough body, resting for a dozen minutes would be enough to recover.
His Ancient Fighter Bloodline could quickly heal his injuries, otherwise, he would have died long ago from being continuously tortured by an Emperor.
“Brother, could you please let me down first? It’s really uncomfortable.” Xia Wuji smiled bitterly. Now that he was completely naked, being scrutinized by Li Qingshan made him feel embarrassed even if he had thick skin.
“As a newly promoted Emperor, I advise you not to let him go.” At this time, the skeleton in the palace emitted a sound like the friction of blades, very hoarse. It slowly walked out, staring at Li Qingshan with its sunken skull, and the soul flames inside its skull stared at Li Qingshan who entered the God Forbidden Mountain.
“Why?” Li Qingshan didn’t rush to let Xia Wuji down but calmly asked.
“Because you will offend an old Emperor for the sake of such a waste. It’s not worth it.” The Skeletal Emperor sneered, and his laughter was like a midnight vulture, emitting such a sound.
“I see.” Li Qingshan nodded in realization. Then, he reached out and cut through the void, directly severing Xia Wuji’s rope. With a boom, Xia Wuji’s 180-pound weight fell to the ground, sending dust flying.
“Now, I have offended you, but what can you do to me?” Li Qingshan looked at the Skeletal Emperor and said indifferently.
The Skeletal Emperor’s movements and even the soul flames in his skull stopped. He stared straight at Li Qingshan.
“Just nice. This guy is stubborn and refuses to reveal the method of opening the inheritance of the Kunlun Immortal. Then, I’ll devour you, the new Emperor, and live another life to pursue my dreams.” In the next second, the Skeletal Emperor’s soul flames directly burned its entire skull with a bang. The flames turned blue and emitted a cold and sharp sound.
“Do you think so too?” Li Qingshan didn’t get angry. Instead, he said in surprise.
“What do you mean?” The Skeletal Emperor looked at Li Qingshan in confusion.
“Because that’s what I think too. After I kill you, I’ll live my second life,” Li Qingshan said.
“Haven’t you just broken through to Emperor Realm? How could your lifespan be gone so quickly?” The Skeletal Emperor looked at Li Qingshan in confusion. When Li Qingshan broke through to the Emperor Realm, the phenomenon caused by the sky and earth was sensed by the Skeletal Emperor hiding in the forbidden area.
That was why he was puzzled. Li Qingshan had broken through less than a year ago, yet he was already talking about living a second life?
The lifespan of an Emperor was at least a million years, right?
How had Li Qingshan squandered such a long span?
“Breaking through to Emperor and needing to live a second life aren’t mutually exclusive,” Li Qingshan explained seriously.
“Hmph, stop with the tricks,” the Skeletal Emperor scoffed at Li Qingshan. He said, “Do you know? To me, the current Emperors in the Immortal Plane are a bunch of weaklings. Your battle in the starry sky with that God Race Emperor looked like child’s play, swinging around a single Rule power. It was laughable.”
Li Qingshan, listening to this taunt, didn’t get angry but instead agreed, saying, “You’re right. An Emperor wielding just one or two Rules is like a child brandishing a whip.”
The Skeletal Emperor looked at Li Qingshan, astonished. He hadn’t expected Li Qingshan not to get angry but to agree with him instead. This made him laugh. “You’re different from those weaklings. You’re a fresh Emperor. Breaking through to the Emperor despite the scarcity of Rule power now is rare. I’ll gladly take your body, your energy, your life, and your pitiful two Rules power.”
In the Skeletal Emperor’s eyes, Li Qingshan was already meat on the chopping block, ready to be carved.
But who knew that Li Qingshan would shake his head and say, “Let me correct you. My Rule power isn’t just two.”
“Even if you comprehend three or four rules, it won’t make a difference against me,” the Skeletal Emperor dismissed him with disdain.
He was a veteran Emperor and had comprehended more than a hundred Rule powers. Moreover, many of them were fused Rules.
Wouldn’t his strength crush Li Qingshan?
“I’ve lost count of the exact number of Rules. Why don’t you help me count?” Li Qingshan smiled calmly and opened his palm.
Boom!
In the next second, thousands of Rules rushed out of Li Qingshan’s palm. They covered the sky and covered the earth. In an instant, they surrounded the entire mountain.
This place had fallen into a sea of Rules.
On the other side, the Skeletal Emperor looked on in a daze. The soul flames flickering once again stunned.
This time, he was stunned for a very, very long time…
