Chapter 413: Li An Was Truly Right

The red flowers spread across the sky and earth told a stark truth.Li An decisively defeated Yu Jingnian in his duel.For the geniuses of the immortal world, the Heavenly Dao Tree was a witness to the Dao.So their minds collapsed.An outsider.Here were the unorthodox teachings that challenged their beliefs.These unorthodox teachings were even sanctioned by the Heavenly Dao Tree.This was especially true for some of the geniuses with deep connections.Their expressions were grim.Because their fathers were present.Logically, a discussion of the Dao at the Heavenly Dao Tree wasn't worthy of such prominent figures' personal presence.But now.Above the misty blue sky, many immortals stood, watching Li An depart.An immortal with a brow slanting downward, a scowl on his face, finally gave way to the anger he had harbored for years. "The Heavenly Dao Tree is dead.""The day of the sky's collapse is near!""The culprit is Ri! Ling!"Off to the side, another immortal roared, "Shut up!"It seemed as if immortals were battling in the sky, and for a moment, a rainbow of colors covered the sky.But suddenly, a biting cold wind blew.The previously turbulent sky calmed down again.The immortals above split into two sides and dispersed.On the ground.Li An greeted Frost and Snow, then stepped away in the light, uninterrupted.The remaining geniuses looked at each other in bewilderment.The Heavenly Dao Tree is gone.What is the Dao then?Some were pondering these things, while others were pondering other things.Zhao Shaolong and the others watched Li An's back, their minds roughly grasping his predicament.Yu Jingnian was a top figure in the immortal world, and his confrontation with Li An today spoke volumes."The immortal world isn't friendly to us," Zhao Shaolong lamented. Liu Jun and the others beside him also nodded silently.Meanwhile.Underground.The Immortal Emperor Ni Nian was unsure how to deal with Yu Jingnian.His original plan was simple.The Heavenly Dao Tree was a witness to the Dao.If the Heavenly Dao Tree didn't bloom, it would undermine Li An's Dao Heart.But the tree was already dying, devoid of strength. Whether it bloomed or not was entirely up to him.Thus, the key to undermining Li An's Dao Heart was never Yu Jingnian.This contest had been a sure thing for the Immortal Realm from the outset.But who could have imagined that the ever-so-low-key Five Elements Emperor would possess power beyond anyone's wildest dreams?Her eyes saw through everything about the Heavenly Dao Tree.This suddenly reminded the Immortal Emperor Ni Nian of a past event.Thousands of years ago, the Tyrant had visited the Heavenly Dao Tree many times, accompanied by some of his colleagues.Could it be that humanity had long since established a close connection with the Heavenly Dao Tree? Immortal Emperor Ni Nian pondered further, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart.Zhuge Tianming had heard his conversation with the Immortal King clearly.He knew all the plans to deal with Li An and Shuang Xue, and he knew who the culprit was.But he did nothing, merely dispatching the Five Elements Emperor and the insignificant Li Wu Ce.What kind of waves could these two men cause in the Immortal World? This was Immortal Emperor Ni Nian's previous assumption.But the moment the Five Elements Emperor and Li An appeared in the tree root cave, everything changed.After establishing a connection with Li An, the Heavenly Dao Tree perished and vanished.This tree was the faith of many immortals.The battle in the sky just now had revealed a rift within the Immortal World.Immortal Emperor Ni Nian's face darkened, and he muttered to himself, "Is Zhuge Tianming really that formidable?"He quickly sought out the Immortal King and informed him of the matter.To his surprise, the Immortal King showed no concern. The death of the Heavenly Dao Tree, the internal strife within the Immortal Realm, the powerful Five Elements Emperor, and the divine artifact in Li An's hand that could bring about magic with his words.None of these events stirred the Immortal King's heart."Amazing! A simple wave of a feather fan in the human realm stirs the Immortal Realm.""You are truly the pillar of the human realm."The tone of these two words was flattering, even making the Immortal Emperor Ni Nian feel like they weren't meant for him.Then the Immortal King added, "How is Yu Jingnian?""Uh..." The Immortal Emperor Ni Nian raised an eyebrow.Why would he still care about this kid at this moment?The Immortal King: "Bring him to me."In the tree root cave.Yu Jingnian was distraught.Li An's Daoist heart was flawless.Then his obsession was truly the work of my uncle and master.The Heavenly Dao Tree had long since withered and died.The red flowers on it were artificial. Every word Li An said on the observation deck was confirmed by the naked truth.Uncle Ni Nian, no longer able to explain, left alone.He lived in a false world.Everything was just as Li An had said.Cracks had appeared in his Dao heart.Then, the Immortal Emperor Ni Nian appeared and brought him to the Immortal King.Yu Jingnian bowed his head and said, "Greetings, Lord Immortal King."Ri Lingze turned his head, chuckled, and patted his shoulder.He said nothing.But a look of extreme fear crossed Yu Jingnian's face.The next second.A stream of black immortal energy surged into his body.The Immortal Emperor Ni Nian watched this scene, his brows furrowed slightly.The power of the black immortal energy in Ri Lingze's palm intensified.Dense black lines appeared on Yu Jingnian's body, and his face became increasingly distorted, resembling a demon.But he continued to struggle, his pupils trembling, his limbs struggling to exert force. Ten seconds passed.The spiritual energy in Yu Jingnian's eyes dissipated, and he became a complete walking corpse."Li An said that after a life has severed its seven emotions and six desires, it will become a walking corpse devoid of spiritual energy."Ri Lingze chuckled, "How true."Beside him, the Immortal Emperor Ni Nian also chuckled, "But he doesn't know how powerful the immortal energy of a person without desires and thoughts is."Ri Lingze said calmly, "Send him to the Puppet Immortal Formation for transformation.""After two months, send him to Hell for a thorough cleansing to strengthen the black immortal energy within him.""Then go to the Immortal God Ship, follow Li An, enter the Gate of the End of the Law, slay him there, and finally bring Frost Snow to me."The Immortal Emperor Ni Nian's heart skipped a beat. He asked, "The Gate of the End of the Law?""Li An can actually open that gate?"As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly covered his mouth and looked up at the sky. Ri Lingze shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter.""He knows.""But he can't do anything about it."After he finished speaking, Ri Lingze looked up into the distance.Zhuge Tianming was, of course, watching him.But would he dare come?Without this great Buddha, the human world would truly be nothing."The only thing we need to worry about now is those traitors.""Have our people keep an eye on everyone on the list.""I've written down their weaknesses here."The Immortal Emperor Ni Nian took the list from the Immortal King and, looking at the words, felt a shudder of fear.Finally, he bowed and said, "The Immortal King is immortal, and his legacy will last for thousands of years.""Yes," Ri Lingze nodded coldly.
