Chapter 418: Chapter 330: Monster Divine Venerable_2
How powerful must one\'s Divine Soul be to accomplish that?
Composing himself, Elder Lin frowned and said, "Are you sure you want to fight to the death with me? My Cultivation is Complete in the Divine Emperor Realm. If we truly start fighting, you are the one who will suffer!"
"If you really think so, then why run away?" Li Cheng retorted.
As he spoke, Li Cheng reached out through the air, and the Space in front of Elder Lin suddenly compressed, forcing Elder Lin to stop in his tracks. Li Cheng took this opportunity to catch up, ripping open a fine crack in Space with the Space Law, charging straight at Elder Lin.
But this time Elder Lin was prepared. He dodged the spatial rift with lightning speed, not retreating but advancing, thrusting his sharp sword towards Li Cheng.
Li Cheng reached out to grab, and the Space Law surged, enveloping Elder Lin. However, the latter\'s full-powered outburst made it difficult for the Space to suppress the formidable aura emanating from his Longsword.
Only then did Li Cheng realize that this guy\'s Cultivation was extremely close to the Divine Venerable Realm and seemed like he could break through at any moment.
His Longsword was also peculiar, containing a great deal of some Law, resisting the suppression of the Space Law, evidently a Divine Artifact empowered with Law.
But Li Cheng reacted incredibly quickly. Seeing that the Space Law could not suppress it, he unhesitatingly blasted out the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal!
Elder Lin, facing the oncoming Big Seal, tried to flick it away with continuous touches of his sword tip, but was instead so shaken that his arm went numb, almost causing him to drop his sword.
"Indeed, against such an opponent, it is the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal that truly works," Li Cheng thought to himself.
This strike disrupted Elder Lin\'s attack rhythm. The Seal\'s momentum did not falter, hitting Elder Lin directly in the chest and shattering his body!
Yet, contrary to Li Cheng\'s expectations, the upper half of the guy\'s body was almost obliterated, but his momentum did not weaken. Instead, it suddenly became even stronger!
Li Cheng frowned and hastily spurred the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal to slam once more towards the ravaged body.
Roar!
The next second, a roar erupted from within the mangled body!
Immediately after, a tentacle that looked very much like an octopus\'s shot out, knocking the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal away with one strike!
Li Cheng\'s pupils constricted, "Divine Venerable!"
Inside this guy, there was actually a Divine Venerable level monster living!
"I told you we could both step back but you wouldn\'t listen. Li Cheng, today you are doomed!" The roaring voice bellowed, full of furious indignation, as if blaming Li Cheng for releasing this monster.
Bang!
The torn body exploded, and tendrils probed out from the blood mist, revealing its total form in the blink of an eye!
It was an octopus-like monster, its body radiating a terrifying evil aura, and the moment it appeared, its body rapidly swelled!
Li Cheng stepped back, watching as the octopus monster grew into a colossal size. His brows knitted together, "How could there be a Divine Venerable level demon inside this guy?"
"Ten Thousand Gods Mountain... Could Ten Thousand Gods Mountain have become a power not inferior to the Mansions within a billion years because it was controlled by such a demon?"
As the thought flashed through his mind, Li Cheng\'s actions didn\'t slow down. He directly activated his Domain to envelop the creature, and the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal howled, smashing down fiercely!
Yet even with the Domain\'s suppression, like before, the octopus monster whipped out its tentacles like long whips, once again sending the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal flying!
After all, it was a Divine Venerable level being. Although Li Cheng could fight a Complete Divine Emperor on his own in the Divine King Realm, the difference between Divine Venerable and Divine Emperor was as vast as the heavens and the earth. Now, in the early stages of the Divine Emperor Realm, he was utterly incapable of fighting a Divine Venerable!
If he could comprehend the Space-Time Law to its utmost, then perhaps he could contend with it. But just like in the early phase of the Divine King Realm, it was still only six hundred million paths, with no increase.
"Die!"
From the mouth of the octopus demon came Elder Lin\'s thunderous shout, as its tentacles smashed and stabbed, attacking Li Cheng with their terrifying force.
Without any hesitation, Li Cheng retracted his Domain and leaped back to retreat!
However, those tentacles followed like shadows, impossible to evade!
"Extend Space!"
In a critical moment, Li Cheng desperately stretched the Space in front of him, instantly severing those few tentacles!
But the next second, even more tentacles came at him!
Li Cheng was somewhat troubled, using space techniques was very draining on the mind, but the monster had an extremely strong life force. He didn\'t know how many more tentacles it could regrow, and it seemed they might never be thoroughly cut down.
If his own energy was seriously depleted, then he would have no choice but to face death.
With that thought, Li Cheng instantly moved and retreated tens of thousands of miles.
"You can\'t escape!" Elder Lin\'s voice rang out from behind Li Cheng, followed by a series of terrifying attacks.
"Join Ten Thousand Gods Mountain, or die!" Elder Lin said while attacking.
Li Cheng teleported again, taunting, "I certainly don\'t want to become a monster like you, as ugly as one can be."
"Then meet your doom!" the octopus monster pursued relentlessly.
As Li Cheng kept teleporting, he suddenly realized that the octopus monster had deployed a spatial lock, and even with his mastery of six hundred million Space Laws, he couldn\'t teleport!
"Heh, heh, did you think you could teleport just because you wanted to in front of a Divine Venerable?"
Before the words faded, a tentacle wrapped with terrifying sword radiance had already bombed towards Li Cheng!
Li Cheng glanced at the entrance millions of miles away and took out the Mansion Venerable Order!
There was still one Divine Skill left from Blunt Empty Venerable, and with his complete Cultivation in the Divine Venerable Realm, the Divine Skill he left behind would surely be able to easily slay the octopus monster before him.
Moreover, now that the entrance was not far, even if he could not slay it, he could take the opportunity to escape at the first chance.
Once he left the Emperor\'s Perishing No Return Domain, he would be safe.
But just then, the storage ring holding the thirteen corpses started to tremble violently!
Li Cheng hastily threw it aside but lost the opportunity to activate the Mansion Venerable Order, and he was hit in the chest by the tentacle, flung uncontrollably backward.
Boom!
The storage ring cracked open, and thirteen identical octopus monsters squeezed out.
"Another Divine Venerable? This is madness, where do all these Divine Venerables come from?"
Ignoring the severe pain in his chest, Li Cheng teleported toward the depths of the Emperor\'s Perishing No Return Domain.
The entrance was sealed by fourteen Divine Venerables, and even if he used the Mansion Venerable Order, he could not possibly inflict heavy damage on them all, so there was no escaping through the entrance.
Faced with one Divine Venerable was difficult enough, let alone fourteen... he had no other choice but to flee!
Putting away the Mansion Venerable Order, Li Cheng focused all his energy on sensing the Spatial Veins, took a step, and instantly appeared millions of miles away.
Stabilizing his figure, he had lost the presence of those fourteen Divine Venerables.
Escaping was simple, just one step away.
But the real problem came next—without any reference point and the Divine Soul suppression even stronger here, his Divine Sense could only probe for ten thousand miles.
In this situation, if Li Cheng turned around a few times, he could completely lose his sense of direction.
Darkness surrounded him, with not a speck of light, and not even a floating continent passed within the range of his Divine Sense.
Li Cheng released the Two Beasts and asked, "Can you sense the direction of the entrance?"
Both of the Two Beasts were utterly confused and looked around in all directions, then shook their heads together.
"The entrance is behind me—do you have a way to lock onto it?" Li Cheng asked again.
Logically, if one simply turned around eighty degrees and walked straight, they should be able to find the entrance.
But in reality, it wasn\'t that simple, because in his bid to escape by following the Spatial Veins, he had stepped millions of miles, and these veins were not straight!
Moreover, Spatial Veins were not fixed; like rivers, they could change, intersect with other streams, and the one he had used before had already altered.
Besides, without any reference point, without either sky or land to guide him, how could he ensure he was moving in the direction he came from?
If he veered slightly upwards or downwards, even a minor angular deviation could lead to a huge discrepancy after millions of miles.
The Two Beasts fell silent, as if thinking of a solution.
Li Cheng turned around, looking in the direction he had come from, and sensed it carefully, "I should be right, if I teleport millions of miles in this direction, I should be able to emerge within a million-mile range of the entrance."
Those words sounded like he was comforting the Two Beasts.
In the midst of speaking, Li Cheng stared, slapping his forehead, "How could I forget this!"
He could perfectly employ the disciple detection function!
By then, the system would point towards the Divine Realm!
