Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 396: Unlucky child

"Here is destined to be my natural pasture!"

On the surface of the Beiming Sea, the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan led the remaining experts of the Tongtian Pavilion, finally encountering the first kingdom on the back of a beast. Yu Daoyuan couldn't help but be both surprised and delighted.

"Submit to me, believe in me, and after death, you can ascend to the Heavenly Court and enjoy eternal bliss."

"Slander me, disbelieve in me, and after death, you will fall into hell and be tormented by the flames of karma!"

The God Emperor Yu Daoyuan subdued one kingdom after another on the back of the beast. The people here had never seen the Heavenly Court and the gods in it. Shocked by the divine power of the Heavenly Court and the gods, coupled with Yu Daoyuan's deception and display of miracles, he gradually gained control of more and more kingdoms on the back of the beast.

More and more people believed in him, and the faith of all living beings poured into his body like the endless vitality of the world, repairing the damage to his flesh and spirit.

The injuries of the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan gradually diminished, and to his delight, there were kingdoms living on the back of the Beiming Sea everywhere. The people in the large and small kingdoms lived in hardship, living in fear and constantly worrying that the giant beasts would die and their countries would sink.

Yu Daoyuan gave them hope for the next life, fabricating the Heavenly Court and hell, allowing them to place their hopes in the next life, rallying the people's hearts, and spreading like a plague.

"Before long, I will be able to restore myself to my peak state and completely occupy this blessed land!"

Yu Daoyuan was full of confidence. "By gathering the power of the two blessed lands, I can pass through the tribulation of becoming an immortal, ascend with my physical body, and reach the immortal realm!"

In the Xianyun, in the Wanxian Pavilion, the immortal flags swayed, about to form the Great Immortal Array. Many of the golden body spirits of the Chai family were revived and joined the formation, standing under the various flags.

The golden body spirits of the Chai family were different from the golden body spirits of the Eastern Master. The golden body spirits were formed by borrowing the incense and sacrifices of the common people, and over time, they were refined into golden bodies, with their spirits imprinted on the heavens and the earth, thus achieving divinity.

After achieving divinity, they were as difficult to kill as the Winged Dragon and the Glutton. Even if they were seriously injured, lost limbs, or even had their heads cut off, they could regenerate. However, if their golden bodies were destroyed, they would die.

The few golden body spirits who had previously blocked Nan Buyi did not dare to fight him to the death, for fear of being injured.

However, Nan Buyi did not care about this. With his many methods, he forced them to refrain from fighting head-on.

And with the raising of the Wanxian flag, with the blessing of the great flag, the golden body spirits of the Chai family could make up for this shortcoming.

In the Great Immortal Array, even if they were injured, they would quickly recover!

—Chai Yundu, the God Lord, was a descendant of the exiled immortals. He had received many teachings from the exiled immortal, and the Wanxian flag and the Great Immortal Array were the inheritance he had learned from the exiled immortal!

However, before the Great Immortal Array was fully set up, countless buildings, long bridges, and walls suddenly appeared in the Wanxian Pavilion, and in an instant, they separated many of the golden body spirits of the Chai family!

The Great Immortal Array was instantly divided into pieces, with various buildings changing and the spatial orientation becoming chaotic.

At the same time, Wutong no longer concealed her figure, appearing in a red dress and saying softly, "Uncle Ao!"

The Black Flood Dragon appeared behind her, leaping into the air and pouncing on the golden body spirits blocking the way ahead. The Black Dragon moved and changed, engaging in a fierce battle, and beside the Black Flood Dragon's body, there was a dragon tooth sword that shuttled back and forth, making it impossible to guard against.

Behind Wutong, Lou Ban walked forward, and the dusty sky turned into various buildings, streets, and mazes, separating the golden body spirits of the Chai family one by one.

Buildings rose up, lifting Nan Buyi up and allowing him to move within the maze-like buildings.

Originally, Nan Buyi was going to face the attacks of three of the Chai family's golden body spirits. Although his strength was extremely strong, he was somewhat hard-pressed. However, with Lou Ban's help, he only had to face one golden body spirit, making him even more powerful.

On the other side, Wutong affected the spiritual heart, causing their techniques to become disordered, and between a few moves, Nan Buyi killed the golden body spirit of the Chai family!

The streets and buildings carried Nan Buyi, and every time he killed a golden body spirit, the space and buildings suddenly changed, sending another golden body spirit in front of him.

In a short moment, he killed more than ten golden body spirits of the Chai family in succession!

During this time, many of the golden body spirits of the Chai family broke through the dusty sky and retreated deep into the Wanxian Pavilion. Soon, there were no more enemies in the dusty sky.

A corridor carried Nan Buyi down slowly, and as he walked out of the corridor, he saw a holy spirit over ten zhang tall, with a red-clothed girl and the Black Flood Dragon in front of it.

Nan Buyi stepped forward to pay his respects. "Could it be that you are the holy spirit from Yuanshuo?"

Lou Ban also returned the greeting and said, "Just now, in order to deal with the danger, I had to reluctantly borrow the power of the Daoist friend. Please forgive me."

Nan Buyi laughed heartily, showing his heroism. "What's there to forgive? If it weren't for the help of the Daoist friend, I'm afraid I would have perished in the Great Immortal Array!"

He looked at Wutong with vigor and said, "Miss Wutong, please lend me a hand again. While the God Lord Yundu is away, let's find the Great Prison and rescue the suppressed experts!"

Lou Ban frowned and said, "It's so dangerous here. Do you have a way to leave here unscathed?"

"No!"

Nan Buyi was very straightforward. "If there was a plan, I wouldn't have come here. But with the help of two people, I can definitely leave here unscathed!"

Lou Ban had a headache and thought to himself, "Nan Buyi is already at the peak of the Original Dao realm. There are not many people in the world who can surpass him in cultivation strength, but he acts very recklessly. However, it seems like his luck is quite good."

He couldn't help but think of Su Yun.

Su Yun acted with great method and agility, but he was a very unlucky child with not-so-good luck.

For example, this time, even though the plan was well thought out, all sorts of unexpected things happened, and he didn't know where the Magnetic God Sword had taken him."The only way now is to join forces with Nan Buyi, the Demon Girl, and others, to first rescue Nan Buyi's followers, gather the strength of everyone, and find out where exactly Su Yun is."

The three of them joined forces, adding wings to a tiger, forcefully breaking into the Wanxian Fang, invincible all the way. Nan Buyi pulled out flags along the way, uprooting the large banners in the Wanxian Fang one after another, and stowing them in his bag.

The Chai family had been peaceful for nearly ten thousand years, never encountering such an event, lacking a sense of crisis, and were continuously defeated by the onslaught of one man, one spirit, one demon, and one monster.

Those large banners were key to forming the Wanxian Formation, and with them taken by Nan Buyi, the remaining banners could hardly form the formation.

If it were an ordinary holy spirit, it would be fine, but Lou Ban was a newly enlightened sage, who elevated the art of architecture to new heights with his own strength. Although he was not canonized by Emperor Yuanshuo, he had long been regarded as a saint in the hearts of the people!

His knowledge was unprecedented, and even the divine spirits of the Chai family, with their profound cultivation, could only keep retreating without understanding it. If they were not careful and fell into the Dust Curtain Sky, they would be blinded by Wu Tong's Dao heart, and then be killed by the rushing Nan Buyi!

The many ancient gods of the Chai family guarding the Immortal Family Hall were trying to unlock the seal of the hall, but saw many divine spirits rushing over in disarray, causing them to be furiously shaken.

An ancient golden-bodied god of the Chai family shouted, "Panicking like this, what dignity is there?"

The Chai family's divine spirits lamented, "Invaders have broken in, led by Nan Buyi, with two helpers whose abilities are unfathomably strange, we cannot resist. Those thieves have rushed towards the great prison!"

"Are these thieves planning to break into the prison?"

The golden-bodied ancient gods couldn't help but laugh, "Could it be that they are walking into a trap? You all go unlock the seal and capture the thieves inside the hall, we will go and capture these little thieves and suppress them directly!"

The Chai family's divine spirits agreed and continued to break the seal of the Immortal Family Hall, preparing to open the door.

On the other side, Nan Buyi, leading Lou Ban, Wu Tong, and others, broke into the great prison. This prison was also guarded by golden-bodied divine spirits with extraordinary strength, but before they could act, they were trapped by Lou Ban.

Nan Buyi broke in and killed the golden-bodied divine spirit.

The great prison had its seals, but they were no match for Lou Ban. This holy spirit infiltrated layer by layer through the Dust Curtain Sky, leading everyone into this seemingly impregnable prison without breaking the seals.

"Lou Saint's abilities are truly divine!" Nan Buyi couldn't stop praising.

Lou Ban modestly demurred, feeling melancholic inside, "If only that kid Su Yun was willing to learn my skills, to practice the art of construction, he wouldn't have been so unlucky, trapped in this immortal cloud."

The group charged into the prison, and not far in, they heard a voice, "Is that Lou Ban, the Saint, outside?"

Lou Ban stopped in his tracks and saw Master Cen pierced by chains of spiritual divine power, hanging in the air of the prison, neither touching the sky nor the ground.

And the Immortal Rope was suppressed by a talisman paper inscribed with strange tadpole script.

The group broke into the prison and rescued Master Cen.

Nan Buyi lifted the talisman paper, but was shocked to the point of boiling blood, exclaiming, "Incredible!"

"The ancient runes on this talisman paper are immortal scripts, extremely powerful. The fact that you could remove it shows your strength is no small feat."

Master Cen retrieved the Immortal Rope, surprised, "My Immortal Rope was vibrating non-stop just now, as if it wanted to fly away. Could it be that the little ghost from Tianmen Town has also come?"

The little ghost from Tianmen Town he referred to was Su Yun.

Lou Ban shook his head, "His luck is too bad, I don't know where he has gone."

Nan Buyi laughed, "Let's release all the prisoners in the great prison, gather everyone's strength, and escape!"

Lou Ban praised, "Nan Buyi is truly the biggest bandit of the Emperor's Cave Heaven, this idea is brilliant!"

The great prison suppressed Nan Buyi's accomplices, who were extremely vicious, as well as powerful exotic beasts, all of which they released.

As they were rushing back, suddenly the seals of the great prison were fully lifted, and several ancient gods, radiant in golden light, stood at the door, their expressions solemn.

The group charged forward, shouting, "Overthrow them, and we can be free!"

"Boom!"

Nan Buyi spat blood, flying back, his face showing a look of shock, he exclaimed, "These ancient gods are very powerful, be careful..."

Before he finished speaking, Lou Ban was suppressed by a golden-bodied ancient god, unable to move.

In the next moment, Master Cen's Immortal Rope was captured by another ancient god, and Master Cen was pierced by chains again, hanging in the air.

The others in the prison were also suppressed, leaving only Wu Tong, who held her breath and concentrated, daring not to move.

She was a demon, shielding the perception of these golden-bodied ancient gods, making them unable to see her, but she also dared not harbor any thoughts of attack.

"Merely lowly commoners, and you wish to turn the heavens?"

One of the golden-bodied ancient gods sneered, "This place is the immortal cloud transformed by the meditation mat of our clan's ancestral exiled immortals. Not to mention you, even god kings and god lords trapped within cannot escape!"

Lou Ban, Master Cen, Nan Buyi, and others had ashen faces.

"Hopefully, that kid is clever enough to escape..."

Lou Ban sighed, "Unfortunately, he's an unlucky child..."

In the Immortal Family Hall, Su Yun suddenly woke up, yawned, stretched, and smiled, "What a long sleep! Eh, it seems like I've refined this meditation mat in my sleep..."

He stood up, picked up the meditation mat, and gave it a light shake.
