Chapter 73: Passing through Tian Jue, Going to Meet Jin Li (Please subscribe!)

Covered in blood-red armor, Qi Yuan's height had grown to 137 meters.

On his shoulders, the blood-red spikes were bright red, transparent and enchanting under the sunlight, as if they were about to drip blood.

He held a huge sword, like a demon emerging from hell, taking big strides.

Qi Yuan held the sword, his voice hoarse and heavy.

"Kill!"

At this moment, there was only one word: kill!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Three thousand mountain peaks flew towards Qi Yuan as peak-level Divine Domain experts attacked from all directions.

Qi Yuan opened his blood-red eyes and saw countless afterimages and countless Martial Dao Divine Abilities.

"Kill!"

He raised the sword with one hand and jumped fiercely.

The tremendous impact shattered the ground beneath his feet.

The huge blood-colored armor leaped into the air.

At this moment, all techniques seemed useless.

With a colossal body of 137 meters, the impact of his descent was enough to shock anyone.

Not to mention, this colossal creature also displayed an extremely powerful sword technique.

"Die, all of you!"

Everything he saw was death!

Qi Yuan didn't know how many people he had killed.

But in the game world, in the Ascension Platform, everyone he saw was killed by him one by one!

Death upon sight!

With one sword strike, the huge mountain peak shattered into pieces.

Rocks and soil flew, breaking into fragments.

The owner of the mountain peak was directly killed by a sword strike.

"Ah!"

Qi Yuan was like a god of slaughter, no, a demon of slaughter!

The huge blood-red sword swung, killing blow after blow.

Three thousand peak-level Divine Domain experts united and continuously attacked him from all sides.

Dozens, hundreds of Martial Dao Divine Abilities attacked Qi Yuan.

It was as if a colossal creature was entangled in a spider's web.

Qi Yuan held the sword, sweeping arrogantly, breaking through all obstacles.

With one sword strike, regardless of Martial Dao Divine Abilities or forbidden secret techniques, they were all cut through like a spider's web, turning into nothingness.

Mountain peaks shattered.

River water surged backward!

The Divine Domain was bathed in blood.

Facing three thousand peak-level Divine Domain experts, Qi Yuan was like a wolf among sheep!

A powerful beast, stepping on the earth, looking down from the clouds, a huge sword slaughtering all living beings.

His fighting skills, his will, had been honed to perfection in these 129,600 battles.

His battles against peak-level Divine Domain experts were filled with violent aesthetics, brutal, rude, domineering; yet also filled with the pinnacle of skill, natural, innate, artistic.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Kill until the heavens and earth are turned upside down, kill until the sun and moon lose their light, kill until the world is in chaos!

With comrades by his side.

Qi Yuan and Xiao Jia slaughtered three thousand Divine Domain experts together!

...

Inside the Five Elements Forbidden Ground.

Long Pan's eyes carried a hint of worry: "Have you felt that the imprisonment of the Five Elements Forbidden Ground is slowly dissipating? I'm afraid that in a thousand years, it will become an ordinary forbidden ground that even the Supreme Emperor can enter."

"Do you suspect it's the extraterrestrial demons?" Yu spoke up. "The Demon Slaying Conference ended long ago, a thousand years later, what use is it for him to slowly release the imprisonment of the Five Elements Forbidden Ground?"

"You make sense." Long Pan ended the topic. "How is the Lord of the Clothing Department doing in his worldly training? How much of our Divine Reflection has he assimilated?"

"He's only been out for a month? You're thinking too much. There are still three hundred years. I hope he can reach the peak of Divine Domain, so we have a bit more certainty when facing the extraterrestrial demons," Yu sighed.

Long Pan thought of something and his expression became serious. "After the Heavenly God went to resist the extraterrestrial demons, did he transmit anything to you? Besides what you've already told us, is there really nothing else, such as the strength and specific number of the extraterrestrial demons?"

Yu fell silent for a moment upon hearing this. "No, I've already told you everything the Heavenly God said."

"Why hide it?" Long Pan sighed upon hearing this.

"There's nothing."

...

"Die!"

The huge sword descended from the sky, shattering the last mountain peak.

The tip of the sword also ground down the last powerful Divine Domain expert among the three thousand.

Yes, it wasn't a stab to death, because his body couldn't accommodate such a large hole, so he was ground down directly.

Qi Yuan stood in place, his whole body filled with dense blood, seemingly solidifying.

Half a day in the outside world was equivalent to a year in the Ascension Platform.

Qi Yuan fought tirelessly without rest.

Finally, he completely killed the three thousand Divine Domain experts.

On his blood-red armor, the blood had dried up, leaving behind some black spots.

He inserted the sword diagonally into the mountain peak, sat in place, and gasped heavily. The air expelled from his nostrils and mouth sprayed away the nearby gravel and soil.

He reached into the lake with his hand, scooping out water and splashing it onto his face repeatedly. The water level in the lake dropped significantly, revealing the mud.

Qi Yuan finally felt much cooler.

Having defeated three thousand Divine Domains, he had now climbed over one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred steps.

Beyond that was the true Ascension Platform.

Once he defeated the golden-armored divine general, he would have complete control over the Heavenly Extinction.

On these final steps, there were three thousand Divine Domains.

What kind of terrifying existence would that final golden-armored divine general be?

Qi Yuan dared not imagine.

"Fight!"

Qi Yuan had no fear.

He was now the weakest version of himself, but also the most powerful.

If he were to retreat, his Martial Dao spirit would dissipate.

He could only move forward, invincible in his path.

He pulled the sword out of the crevice in the mountain peak, causing the mountain to crack and split.

Holding the sword, he ascended to the final Ascension Platform.

His body also rapidly shrank, reducing to twelve meters.

At this moment, a majestic voice came, "You have arrived."

Qi Yuan looked over and saw the one-armed golden-armored divine general.

Standing on the Ascension Platform, his expression was mechanical and indifferent, holding a pitch-black spear in his right hand.

The spear was stained with blood and emitted a chilling light.

He was slightly different from the golden-armored divine general Qi Yuan had seen before.

"After so many years, I never thought there would still be someone able to ascend to the Ascension Platform," the golden-armored divine general spoke, his mechanical voice tinged with a hint of desolation.

Qi Yuan asked, "What can one do after ascending to the Ascension Platform?"

The golden-armored divine general's expressionless face revealed a strange smile for the first time, "It is said to be the starry sky, but..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

Qi Yuan asked, "But what?"

"But in reality, it is to become a disciple of my lord and ultimately enter my lord's belly," the golden-armored divine general said, pointing the black spear at Qi Yuan.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan felt a chill run down his spine.

Who was the master of Heavenly Extinction?

Who created this arena?

He had no idea.

However, the master of Earth Extinction was now an extraterrestrial demon.

"Now that the world is in chaos, with the sun and moon reversed, that's why weaklings like you have the opportunity to ascend to the true Ascension Platform and qualify to stand before me," the golden-armored divine general spoke, his voice mechanical and indifferent. "Come, let's end this boring battle."

The long spear was sharp, emitting a chilling light.

The one-armed golden-armored divine general stood in place, and an invisible pressure permeated the surroundings, surpassing that of ten thousand armies.

Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes, and information appeared.

[Broken Soul of the Dilapidated Golden-Armored Divine General, Level 119.]

Level 119?!!

This was the first time he had seen such a powerful expert in this world.

He had never seen anyone break through level 100 before.

Even he himself couldn't surpass level 100.

Now, he was facing a level 119 powerhouse.

An unknown, mysterious, and powerful expert.

Qi Yuan's hair stood on end, his body trembling, and his whole body tensed up.

All his focus, all his attention, was on the golden-armored divine general.

He wielded his sword, remained vigilant, and attacked.

All his desire to kill, all his will to fight, reached its peak at this moment.

"Kill!"

He understood that this battle was almost certain death.

So, when Qi Yuan made his move, it was the strongest strike.

"Ah!"

With the support of numerous Martial Dao Divine Abilities and skills, the enormous sword unleashed the strongest attack in this world.

The sword pierced directly into the body of the golden-armored divine general.

"Ah?!"

The golden-armored divine general shattered into pieces.

"Where is he?!"

With a single strike, Qi Yuan saw the bewildered expression of the golden-armored divine general, saw him turn into fragments.

But such a terrifying powerhouse at level 119 couldn't possibly be killed by a single strike from him.

He naturally knew that it was just an illusion.

"Come out!"

"Come out!"

"I see you!"

Qi Yuan wielded his giant sword, once again displaying his renowned sword technique.

The Eight Slashes of Summer.

This sword technique was wielded haphazardly, full of loopholes, but it gave him the strongest sense of security.

As if anyone who approached would be injured by his Eight Slashes of Summer.

Unfortunately, no one responded no matter how Qi Yuan roared.

At this moment, a voice prompt appeared in Qi Yuan's mind.

[Kill the remnants of the defeated Golden Armored God General and gain the opportunity to reach level 100. Will you proceed?]

Qi Yuan was stunned.

"Was I killed?"

"Instantly?"

"No, that's not right!"

The look of horror on his face deepened.

"So this is the strength of a level 119 expert. He even knows what I'm thinking and has discovered the reality that I am an NPC in the game!"

"Simulated GM, you're so cunning!"

"Once I let my guard down, you will surely strike me like thunder!"

Qi Yuan sneered at the sky.

Unfortunately, no one responded to him.

He stood there, not knowing how much time had passed.

He looked puzzled, "Did I overthink it?"

He thought for a moment, bent down and searched the ground for something.

After about an hour, Qi Yuan saw the assembled remnants of the golden armor on the ground.

Or rather, not remnants, but some fragments.

He looked shocked, "Is this really dead? Just like this!"

He couldn't understand.

"I was being foolish, worrying for no reason. Fortunately, there were no spectators in the arena, otherwise, as the Great Emperor of the youth, I would have lost face today, scaring myself."

Only then did Qi Yuan focus on the prompt he had just received.

Kill the Golden Armored God General and gain the opportunity to reach level 100?

He was stunned.

He had reached level 104 relying on Xiao Jia, but that was not his true strength.

There were many experiences within his body, all maxed out.

Once he reached level 100, he would level up like crazy, reaching a realm he couldn't even imagine.

However, for some reason, he didn't dare to level up.

Especially the words spoken by the Golden Armored God General earlier.

He always felt that something terrifying would happen when he reached level 100.

After all, in this world, he had not yet seen a genuine level 100.

"Not leveling up for now." Qi Yuan kept the opportunity to level up.

He would only level up when he had no other choice.

After all, it wasn't necessary at the moment.

The prompt came again.

[Heaven's End instance cleared, reward obtained.]

[Reward 1: 30 fragments of the Heavenly Dao.]

[Reward 2: Opportunity to reach level 100 (can be used at any time).]

"Already 60 fragments? According to my guess, with another 30 fragments from Di Jue and 10 fragments from Yin Yang Forbidden, I will be able to obtain all the Heavenly Dao fragments and complete the Foundation Building of the Heavenly Dao."

Qi Yuan was in a good mood.

At this moment, a game prompt came.

[Step onto the Ascension Platform. After an hour, the imprisonment of Heaven's End will disappear, and you can leave for the mortal realm.]

"After comprehending the mortal world for a month, you will be transported to Di Jue."

"Mortal realm?" Qi Yuan's eyes lit up. "I can meet Jin Li!"

"But only one month's time, and I have to go to Di Jue to fight the boss?"

"Never mind, let's meet first!"

Qi Yuan thought and quickly told Jin Li about this.

"Jin Li, I have cleared Heaven's End, I can leave the End Realm now, and I have one month to stay in the mortal world!"

"Let's go, let's meet at Gu Qi Chunmu!"

"By the way, you left Nan Qian Country a few days ago and went to Gu Qi Chunmu. Have you arrived?"

At this time, in a small town under Gu Qi Chunmu, Jin Li was sitting by a lake.

Not far away, a few children were playing and frolicking, and one child was playing in the water. The child's mother pulled him out of the water and slapped him on the butt. Judging from the force, she was definitely his real mother.

A big bird flew down from under Gu Qi Chunmu and plunged into the water, seeming to have caught a small fish.

There were also many young men and women having secret meetings by the lake.

"Are you coming to see me?" Jin Li's heart tightened.

"Yes, I have one month's time. Where should we meet? Give me the coordinates."

"I'm in the July Town, within the Moon Emperor Dynasty under Gu Qi Chunmu. It's easy to find here. After leaving Opening Heaven, head southeast, and you will come here. I'll be waiting for you at Half Moon Lake." Jin Li's body trembled slightly, unable to hide her excitement.

"Okay, I've noted it down," Qi Yuan said, then asked, "How is it outside? Are things expensive? Is the food good? Is the scenery beautiful?"

"The scenery here is beautiful, Gu Qi Chunmu is really big."

"It's the sacred tree of the Moon Emperor Dynasty. It's adjacent to it, unlike Nan Qian Country. There is no war here, and everyone lives in peace and contentment."

There are many delicious things to eat. Today, I tried a crispy sweet duck, and it tasted great.

I'm trying to learn how to make it myself. When you come, I'll cook it myself!"

"Okay, I hope it's not too bad. Otherwise, I'll have to pretend it's delicious and eat it all, which would be really uncomfortable."

"..."

"Ah, this is my first time meeting an online friend in person. To be honest, I'm quite excited."

"Me too."

"What do you look like? Oh, sorry for being abrupt."

"I should... be okay?"

"It's okay, it doesn't matter. I'm handsome, I won't reject you."

"I've asked you so many questions, do you want to ask me some questions?"

"For example, how tall am I, how much is my annual income, do I have a car, do I have a house, how much is the dowry..."

"..."

"I've said too much, why does it feel like a blind date? Online, it should be CPDD."

"What's that?"

"It means looking for a partner. Anyway, I won't say anymore. I've exhausted myself today, I need to rest for a while. I'll probably reach the top of the leaderboard tomorrow if I don't get lost. If I do get lost, then I'll see you in three days or seven days!"

After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he went offline.

Jinli, dressed in white, sat by the lake, lost in thought.

"Your Majesty, is that esteemed person coming to see you?" Qin Yi appeared by Jinli's side.

Upon hearing this, Jinli smiled gently, "Yes, and Qin Yi, don't call me Your Majesty anymore, just call me Ali. I am no longer the Empress of Nanqian Kingdom, and I am not suitable to be an empress."

Qin Yi smiled in response, knowing Jinli better than anyone, "You seem restless now, what are you worried about?"

"N-nothing..."

Qin Yi said, "Your Majesty has a body worth millions of gold, and your appearance can be described as stunning. You deserve anyone."

Jinli remained silent and did not speak.

Qin Yi continued, "That esteemed person was able to lend the terrifying Imperial Guards to Your Majesty, which shows that he cares about you. Your Majesty doesn't need to worry anymore. Being so restless, you might become haggard even before meeting him."

Upon hearing this, Jinli stood up, "Alright, Qin Yi, let's go back."

The two of them left the lakeside and headed towards the courtyard they had purchased.

At this moment, a group of children wearing masks passed by Jinli.

The masks were diverse, and the children wore masks and held sticks as they hummed songs. They were led by a private tutor, heading towards a certain place.

"Qin Yi, what are they doing with the masks?" Jinli was curious.

"It seems like they are going to worship a certain god's statue," Qin Yi knew a little, but not much.

"What god is it, and why do they wear masks?"

"It seems like that god also wears a mask."

"Why do they all have sticks?"

"I don't know."

"What does that god oversee?"

"It's not about marriage, but in three days, there will be a temple fair in this town. If that esteemed person comes, the two of you can go together to see the fair. This town seems to have many statues and prosperous temples. Only that private tutor believes in that god."

"Well, a temple fair, it does sound interesting. We can go and take a look."

...

The next day.

In the realm of Tianjue.

Qi Yuan stretched lazily.

He stood by the lake and looked at his reflection in the water.

"As handsome as ever."

He stood up and thought of something.

"When meeting in person, should I bring some gifts? Otherwise, it would be impolite."

"Oh no, I don't have anything on me."

He stood by the lake in Tianjue, pondering for a while.

Then he dissipated and ran through Tianjue.

After a short while, a wooden hairpin appeared in Qi Yuan's hand.

The wooden hairpin was ordinary, but it was made from many precious plants.

"A handmade wooden hairpin, should be fine, right?"

"I hope it won't be criticized as cheap handmade goods like others."

"Jinli is not that kind of person, it'll be fine."

He thought for a moment.

He sent a message to Jinli.

"I brought you a gift, a wooden hairpin, handmade. Don't dislike it for being cheap."

After saying that, he left Tianjue and walked away.

After dozens of breaths, Qi Yuan finally left Tianjue.

"A desert?"

He gazed at the sky.

Poems from ancient times surged in his mind.

In the vast desert, a solitary smoke rises, the setting sun rounds off the long river.

As he looked into the distance, he saw a golden desert.

"Huh? Why is my game interface gone?"

Qi Yuan was stunned.

When he stepped out of Tianjue, his game interface disappeared.
