Chapter 708: Chapter 670: Li Wang’s Reaction_1

Yan Lie hadn’t summoned his majestic divine body, instead maintaining his regular form with just a tiny flame flickering at the tip of his finger.

It was that very flame, fueled by divine blood, that seemed to plant the fire domain he presided over directly into Pang Jian’s body, causing Pang Jian to sink under the weight of many Flame Stars and the heaven and earth.

Yan Lie stood in the void of the Fifth Realm, and every powerhouse with a tenth-level bloodline, along with the True Gods of the Human Race, felt the oppressive force emanating from his location.

Every member of the Alien Tribes, every True God, all had the illusion of being suppressed by tens of thousands of volcanoes.

The oppressive power of a high god toward lower-tier God Spirits was just that profound, that visually and tangibly heavy.

In the void, the red dots inside Pang Jian’s body were still burning like the Flame Realm, and Pang Jian continued to sink.

However, Zhu Ji, Ghost Mother, and Li Wang, after their initial shock, all calmed down.

It was Pang Jian who had led them out of the Sixth Realm; in the special environment of the Sixth Realm, he would not suffer the constraints of the Great Tao or be tainted by the Filth Alien Power.

The Sixth Realm was friendly to Pang Jian, and he would not perish because of the environment.

The three even felt that allowing Pang Jian to sink back into the Sixth Realm might solve his internal anomaly and eliminate the influence of the Fire God Yan Lie’s divine skills.

Thus, in the face of Pang Jian’s descent, the three True Gods of the Human Race who had left the "Universe Box" made no attempt to stop him.

"Begin," Yan Lie commanded with a somewhat diminished interest.

He only glanced at Zhu Ji, Li Wang, and Ghost Mother before immediately losing interest, not wishing to act personally.

Clearly, he deemed the three unworthy of his concern.

"Swish!"

Lie Yang, with many red braids, took the lead stepping out from the Fragment Land.

A gigantic golden palace rapidly took shape behind him in the void.

This palace, named "Sun God Palace," was a divine secret technique he had recently understood after contemplating the "Sun God Canon."

And the "Sun God Canon" was a gift from Yan Lie.

As the chieftain of the Yao Clan, Lie Yang had developed an affinity for this extraterrestrial Fire God upon receiving the "Sun God Canon," taking Yan Lie’s commands very seriously.

Built of colored glaze, gold, and gemstones, decorated with many pearls and white jade railings, the "Sun God Palace" was majestic and luxurious, with intense sunlight flames burning fiercely.

Compared to the Sun God Palace constructed in the heart of the Fierce Sun beyond the heavens, this "Sun God Palace" was no less magnificent.

"Yao Clan, Lie Yang."

Zhu Ji frowned slightly, a touch of surprise showing in his eyes.

"Hiss!"

After appearing in the Fifth Realm, Li Wang, donning a starry magical robe, suddenly coalesced into a beam of starlight shooting straight into the sky.

The starlight vanished and reappeared repeatedly in the void.

With each reappearance, the starlight traversed further through the void, and in the blink of an eye, it vanished from the Fifth Realm.

Lie Yang and other supremely powerful beings of the Alien Tribes, such as Jingsha and Aman, were somewhat taken aback by Li Wang’s actions.

It seemed they hadn’t expected Li Wang, leader of the Human True Gods, to be such a craven.

Li Wang had attained enlightenment through the Star River but was also a master of the secrets of the void; with Luo Hongyan, equally proficient in this art, not present, no one could intercept him.

All could only watch helplessly as he stylishly made his escape.

Surprisingly, neither Zhu Ji nor Ghost Mother paid any mind to Li Wang’s flight.

After years of fighting side by side, no one knew what kind of person Li Wang was better than the two of them.

Such a calm and rational fellow would always make the most correct choice in any situation; Li Wang’s departure was simply because he was too weak, and staying would only be a burden.

His leaving was surely to ensure a better return, to attend to more important matters.

Zhu Ji and Ghost Mother always trusted Li Wang.

"Qingming Cave Heaven, Reincarnation Pool."

The Ghost Mother had a thought, and the "Divine Dharma Aspect" reappeared in the Fifth Realm.

Strands of Mysterious Yin Alien Power, scattered across the continents of the Fifth Realm, mixed with Ghosts of the Dead, were now drawn by her.

Behind her grand Dharma aspect, in an immense, not yet fully materialized pool, water was slowly filling up.

The pool was still an illusion, but the water of Mysterious Yin was real.

The Ghost Mother, once she broke free from the Sixth Realm, established a connection with "Qingming Cave Heaven," and now she began to employ the power of the "Reincarnation Pool" to recover her battle strength in the Fifth Realm.

She could harvest power from any realm where living beings and spirits of the dead roamed.

The Fifth Realm was no exception.

Only in the Sixth Realm, where all life had utterly ceased and no living beings remained, did she become so passive, unable to gather the powers that could heal her.

"Zhu Ji, you deal with that Fire God, I’ll try to fight the others in an indirect manner."

"I need time."

"Likewise, Li Wang probably needs time too."

The voice of the Ghost Mother resonated through Zhu Ji’s mind.

Zhu Ji gave a barely noticeable nod and immediately fixed his gaze intensely on Yan Lie.

"Oh!"

Yan Lie was slightly surprised.

Zhu Ji’s look held a terrifying weight, creating a sense of pressure upon Him.

Even such ethereal things as gazes and looks could be endowed with a dreadful weight by Zhu Ji, sparking Yan Lie’s interest and making Him curiously return the look.

"Awoo!"

A savage and cruel dragon’s roar suddenly exploded from the Misty Sea of the Fifth Realm.

Everyone immediately turned their attention in that direction.

A massive Black Dragon, its body covered in iron-like scales and stretching over ten thousand zhang in length, emerged ferociously from the Mysterious Fog.

Its dragon tail, as if dragging a slice of black sky, came winding toward the people with overwhelming momentum.

The strange expanse of darkness behind the Black Dragon was even darker and denser than the Fifth Realm, as if it was about to devour and submerge this world.

The races born in the Fifth Realm, their bloodlines, pupils, and bodies had all become accustomed to a world not illuminated by the sun, moon, and stars and understood that it was the lack of light sources that made it dark.

However, the darkness of the Fifth Realm could still be dispersed and illuminated with the return of light.

Yet the darkness trailing the Black Dragon was not only resistant to light sources but was also devouring them!

"Black Dragon King!"

Shajia, who was being protected by Yan Lie and had awakened after ingesting healing divine medicine, perched on the shoulder of Aman, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains.

Gazing at the ferocious Black Dragon, Shajia spoke angrily, "He has succeeded in becoming a Demon God!"

Her anger was directed at Yan Lie.

Even though Yan Lie had saved her, she still felt that neglecting the Black Dragon King and allowing it to become a dark Demon God was a mistake.

"I said it doesn’t matter," Yan Lie said indifferently, "Be it the Black Dragon King, Pang Jian, or Zhu Ji, none can change anything."

He flicked his finger towards the Black Dragon King.

Bundles of firelight suddenly turned into blazing Flaming Meteors, speeding toward the Black Dragon King.

The hundreds of Flaming Meteors, each tens of thousands zhang in length and as wide as rivers, surged forth, forcing the Black Dragon King—who had sensed the perilous situation for Pang Jian—to blaze a path through the terrifying onslaught with his mighty demonic body.

"Pfft!"

Meanwhile, Pang Jian, having just escaped the Sixth Realm, once again plummeted downward.
