Chapter 340 All-out war
Chapter 340 All-out war
"I've heard that above the saints, there are Daozu who have the ability to kill saints, so I'm just doing this to protect myself!"
Li Qing smiled and replied.
At this time, Yuanshi Tianzun had just survived the horrific thunder. He was sweating profusely and looked at Li Qing in horror. He was protected by Hongjun just now, so he survived the thunder released by Li Qing.
Because he had come into close contact with Li Qing's thunder just now, he knew how terrifying that thunder was.
Originally, Li Qing's thunder was not enough to scare him, but Li Qing injected the national destiny of the Shang Dynasty and the spirit of the Human Emperor into it. Once these two forces entered his body, it would probably take at least 1,800 years for them to recover.
That's why Yuanshi Tianzun was so frightened.
"Master, this boy is so young, but he has such skills. We must not let him stay. Please help and kill him!"
Yuanshi Tianzun bowed and spoke respectfully to Hongjun.
"I still ask Daozu to take action and kill him, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"
At this time, Haotian and Jieyin, who were watching the battle on the side, heard the conversation between Hongjun and Li Qing, and also stepped forward and bowed to Hongjun and asked.
"Haha! Kill me? Do you dare?"
Li Qing looked at Hongjun with confidence and asked. Even when facing Hongjun, there was no fear on his face.
Hongjun thought about it in his mind, and finally shook his head and did not agree to the three people's request.
"He absorbed the fate of the Shang Dynasty into his body. Now he not only carries the fate of the Shang Dynasty, but also the fate of the human race. If I kill him, even I can't bear it!"
The reason why Li Qing dared to come out of the palace and face Hongjun directly was because he had just followed Laojun's advice and swallowed the entire Shang Dynasty's national destiny into his body. At this time, he had become one with the entire Shang Dynasty. If the Shang Dynasty was destroyed, he would probably fall from the saint realm.
Moreover, he carries the aura of the Human Emperor and the destiny of the Shang Dynasty. If someone attacks him and kills him, he will not only suffer backlash from the destiny of the Shang Dynasty, but also from the destiny of the human race. This is why Li Qing has the confidence to face Hongjun head-on.
He was certain that Hongjun would not try to kill him. After all, Hongjun now only wanted to be in harmony with the Heavenly Dao. If his death caused him to be unable to be in harmony with the Heavenly Dao, not only would he not kill Li Qing, he would also protect Li Qing.
"Since you don't dare to kill me, then why are you still here? Leave quickly, otherwise if you make me angry, I don't know what I will do!"
Li Qing looked at Hongjun and the other three and threatened.
"Good boy! Let's go!"
After listening to Li Qing's words and considering Li Qing's current strength, Hongjun thought that if Li Qing really went crazy, it would be difficult for him to protect these four people, so he took them away.
Li Qing returned to the palace only after watching Hongjun and others leave.
"Teacher, are you okay?"
When Emperor Xin saw Li Qing falling from the sky, he immediately came up to him and asked with concern.
"Don't worry, my king. I'm fine!"
"What about those people?"
"Those people have already retreated!"
Emperor Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Li Qing say that those people had retreated.
"Teacher, who are those people? How could they make you, a saint, feel threatened?"
Emperor Xin looked at Li Qing and asked.
"I am not afraid of the other three. I am only afraid of one person, that old man in white robe. That person has the means to kill a saint!"
"What? Aren't saints immortal? How can they be killed by others?"
After hearing what Li Qing said, Emperor Xin asked in disbelief.
"A saint is not immortal. There are still people who can kill a saint in this world. However, there are not many who can kill a saint. There are only two people. One of them is the person you saw just now, and the other is my teacher, Taishang Laojun!"
Li Qing explained to Emperor Xin.
"So, teacher, who is that person? How could he have a cultivation level comparable to that of Grand Master?"
Hearing this, Li Qing shook his head and replied with a serious expression:
"You are wrong, my king. That person does not have the same level of cultivation as my teacher. His cultivation is even higher than my teacher. He is Daozu Hongjun!"
"So it's Daozu Hongjun, no wonder you said he has the means to kill a saint!"
After hearing Li Qing's words, Emperor Xin said with a look of sudden enlightenment.
Hongjun is known as the ancestor of saints. He is the first person to become a saint in the entire prehistoric world, so it is not surprising that he has the means to kill saints.
"Teacher, then why did they retreat? Could it be because they knew you were his disciple?"
Emperor Xin looked at Li Qing in confusion and asked.
Li Qing shook his head and replied:
"It's not because he knows I'm his disciple. In his eyes, my identity as a saint's disciple is probably more intimidating to him. He retreated because I swallowed up the fate of the Shang Dynasty. Now I have merged with the Shang Dynasty. We prosper together and suffer together."
“Haha! Even if he is a saint, he would not dare to risk being attacked by the Shang Dynasty’s national destiny to kill me. After all, my master’s focus is not on me at this moment!”
Li Qing smiled and replied.
"Teacher, are you telling the truth? Have you really swallowed up the fate of the Shang Dynasty?"
Li Qing could not see any dissatisfaction in Emperor Xin's eyes, but instead a look of excitement.
"My king, I have taken over the fate of your Shang Dynasty, but you are not angry? Why are you so happy?"
This time it was Li Qing's turn to be confused. He didn't understand why he was so happy even though he had swallowed up all the destiny of the Shang Dynasty.
"Haha! Teacher, how could I be angry? I can't wait to be happy. Now the fate of my Shang Dynasty is tied to a saint. As long as you don't die, doesn't it mean that my Shang Dynasty will be immortal?"
Emperor Xin said excitedly.
"That's how it should be!"
"That's all. After you swallowed up the fate of the Shang Dynasty, even Daozu Hongjun didn't dare to kill you. And you are the disciple of the second strongest man in the world. Who else can kill you?"
Emperor Xin said excitedly that he had begun to fantasize that his Shang Dynasty would continue to exist. As long as Li Qing was alive, his Shang Dynasty would be immortal.
“My king, I must remind you that although I have swallowed up the national destiny of your Shang Dynasty, as long as I am alive, the Shang Dynasty will not perish. However, if the national destiny of the Shang Dynasty weakens, I will fall from the realm of a saint!”
"Once I fall from the realm of saint, what will greet me and the Shang Dynasty will be a catastrophic disaster!"
On the other side, under the leadership of Hongjun, a group of four returned to Hongjun's Zixiao Palace.
"Master, what should we do? Li Qing has the Shang Dynasty's national destiny to protect him. Even you, Master, don't dare to attack him. Doesn't that mean he is invincible?"
Yuanshi Tianzun asked unwillingly.
Hongjun shook his head, a smile appeared on his face and he said:
“Haha! Although that kid has swallowed up the fate of the Shang Dynasty, we dare not do anything to him at the moment. However, he does not know that there is a huge disadvantage in swallowing up the fate of the Shang Dynasty!”
"What are the drawbacks? Please, Master, explain it to us!"
"Now that he has swallowed up the destiny of the Shang Dynasty, he will rise and fall with the Shang Dynasty. As long as the destiny of the Shang Dynasty weakens, he will fall from the holy realm. Once he falls from the holy realm, I think you can get rid of him without my help, right?"
Hongjun said with a smile looking at Yuanshi Tianzun and the other two.
"As for weakening the fortunes of the Shang Dynasty, I think you all know what to do without me telling you, right?"
After hearing Hongjun's words, the three people's frowns immediately relaxed, and smiles appeared on their faces. The three of them nodded vigorously and said:
"I see. Now we know how to sit. The three of us will get ready. Bye, teacher!"
The three of them left the Zixiao Palace. After seeing them off, Hongjun looked in the direction of Shang Chaoge, shook his head and said softly:
"Haha! He is actually tied to the fate of the Shang Dynasty. He is still too young!"
Yuanshi Tianzun and his party returned to Kunlun Mountain's Yuxu Palace and sat together. Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Jieyin Haotian and said:
"You two, I'm sure you understand what Master said just now. What we have to do now is to make the Shang Dynasty's national fortune decline. When that guy falls from the holy realm, I will return everything I experienced today to him!"
Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Jie Yin and Hao Tian and said.
"We understand. From today on, we will help you, the Chan Sect, and support Xiqi in an all-out war against the Shang Dynasty until the Shang Dynasty is destroyed!"
