Heavenly Dao Rankings: I Am Exposed As The Sword God Novel - Chapter 283
Chapter 283: This Pagoda Tower Is Mine (1)
Li Yu and Murong Xingqiao rode the divine beast Qilin away from the Mystic Bird Palace.
However, not long after he left the Mystic Bird Palace, Li Yu heard a loud noise from afar.
Furthermore, he sensed the powerful magic power fluctuation.
Almost at the same time, the system mission interface popped up in front of Li Yu again. The mission this time was simple: collect the Eight-Divisional Pagoda.
There was a red-letter notification on the mission, indicating that the Pagoda Tower in the Eight-Divisional Pagoda was not far away.
Li Yu raised his brows and immediately rode Guo Qilin over.
…
In the Pagoda Tower, Demon God Yi Xie never imagined that someone would suddenly interfere when he was about to succeed.
It was as if he had finally licked his goddess after much difficulty. Just as his goddess was about to submit to him and be pushed down by him, he was suddenly kicked off the bed and into the nine heavens.
“No, no, no!” He felt that the Essence Soul mark he had painstakingly carved had been completely erased, and the Essence Soul power he had infiltrated had also been forcefully removed.
Yi Xie roared in despair. Billions of years of hard work was about to succeed, but it was stopped.
‘Who is it? Who is refining this pagoda? I’m going to kill him!’
Yi Xie roared hysterically, but he was helpless.
Outside the pagoda, Ji Xingzi had just completely erased the Essence Soul mark and was about to inscribe his own Essence Soul mark on it to refine it when he suddenly discovered two Essence Soul powers seeping into it at the same time.
This Essence Soul power originated from Fallen Divine Child and Mie Chenzi.
“What are you doing? Don’t interfere with my refinement of this pagoda!” Ji Xingzi said coldly.
“Ji Xingzi, aren’t you doing this to release Demon God Yi Xie? Why don’t you give this pagoda to me? I don’t want any other rewards!” Fallen Divine Child grinned.
“Why don’t we refine it together and see who can refine this pagoda first!” Mie Chenzi suggested with a smile.
“Don’t you dare mess around. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being merciless!” Ji Xingzi shouted sternly as terrifying magic power instantly surged out.
However, Fallen Divine Child and Mie Chenzi were not afraid of Ji Xingzi at all. Their Essence Souls competed with each other in the pagoda.
“We promised to help you release Demon God Yi Xie, but we didn’t agree to help you refine this pagoda!” Fallen Divine Child added.
“That’s right. Why don’t the three of us have a competition? The pagoda belongs to whoever wins.”
As he watched Ji Xingzi, Mie Chenzi, and Fallen Divine Child fight over the pagoda, Gongshu Shituo’s expression darkened.
If not for the fact that he had not recovered his strength, he really wanted to slap these greedy fools to death.
A single Pagoda Tower had actually caused a dispute. It seemed impossible to gather their strength and establish a stable alliance in the future.
As the few demonic path big shots were in a deadlock, the surrounding fog that blotted out the sky suddenly dissipated. The strange power that hindered divine sense and affected senses dissipated.
The entire world seemed to have turned from chaotic to bright.
This sudden change surprised Ji Xingzi, Mie Chenzi, and the others. They looked around in surprise and saw three figures appear above their heads.
It was as if a god had descended to the mortal world. Under the divine light, all the strangeness, illusion, and evil were dispelled.
This was especially true for the person in the lead. He seemed to be the embodiment of the Great Dao. Dao runes gathered, and Dao energy lingered. The Great Dao phenomenon accompanied him, making people fear him and instinctively want to bow down to him.
Gongshu Shituo’s expression was ugly when he saw Li Yu. There was also the man behind him with loose hair, casual clothes, and a lazy expression. He was known as Young Master Qi.
The moment he saw Li Yu, he covered his face with his palm and lowered his head, not daring to look up. He wished for nothing more than to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
They were afraid of being recognized by Li Yu!
They never imagined that they would encounter Li Yu after arriving in the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm, and it was just as they were about to release the Demon God.
‘Why is he everywhere?!’
“This Pagoda Tower is mine!” Li Yu looked down at the crowd and said coldly.
With a command, the power of the Great Dao gathered. The pagoda seemed to have awakened as it shook violently.
A vast pressure spread out, causing the surrounding space to tremble. The ground collapsed and cracked under the invisible pressure.
The expressions of Ji Xingzi, Mie Chenzi, Fallen Divine Child, and the others, who were originally using their powers to suppress the pagoda, changed drastically. They were immediately devoured by the power of the pagoda and spat out blood.
Their Essence Soul was severely injured by the suppressive power in the pagoda. If they had not retracted it in time, their Essence Soul would probably have been sucked into it.
Even so, everyone’s Essence Souls almost fainted under the impact of the pagoda’s power.
The earth shook, and the heavens and the earth shook. The incomparably enormous pagoda rapidly shrank until it transformed into a small pagoda that fell into Li Yu’s palm.
Seeing Li Yu put away the pagoda, no one dared to act rashly.
Not to mention that they had just been injured by the power of the pagoda, and their strength had already been greatly reduced. Even in their heyday, they might not be that extraordinary person’s match.
This pagoda was not theirs to begin with, so there was no need to protect it with their lives.
Furthermore, even if they lost their lives, the outcome would be the same.
Therefore, they could only be quiet old men at the moment. They did not even dare to breathe, afraid that they would anger that person and be taken away.
After the pagoda was taken away, a bottomless pit with a radius of several kilometers appeared where it originally was.
The surrounding mountains began to collapse. Trees fell, sand flew, and dust flew. The ground nearby seemed to have experienced an earthquake as it took a long time to calm down.
After putting away the pagoda, Li Yu flew away with Murong Xingqiao and Guo Qilin, disappearing at the end of the world in the blink of an eye.
Whoosh…
Seeing the three leave, Young Master Qi, Ji Xingzi, and Mie Chenzi heaved a sigh of relief.
“Who was that just now? He seemed so powerful. Do any of you know him?” Ji Xingzi asked.
Everyone shook their heads. “I’ve never seen this person before!”
They were all curious about who this person was to be so extraordinary.
“Sir, what should we do now?” Ji Xingzi walked to Gongshu Shituo’s side and asked.
“Hurry up and leave this place!” Gongshu Shituo ordered. Then, his figure flashed as he left with Young Master Qi and the others.
“Ji Xingzi, although we didn’t succeed today, we did our best and were severely injured. You can’t go back on your promise to us!”
“That’s right, that’s right. We didn’t guarantee success back then!” Fallen Divine Child and Mie Chenzi said.
Ji Xingzi was silent for a moment. He was displeased. If not for the fact that these people had ulterior motives and delayed the opportunity, they might have released Yi Xie.
However, he could not say anything at the moment. His injuries were more serious than the two of them. If he really attacked, he would not gain anything.
“Don’t worry, I won’t forget what I promised you!” Ji Xingzi said before he turned into a stream of light and left.
In the pagoda, Yi Xie’s Essence Soul was still roaring indignantly.
Demonic Qi and resentment filled his body as he rampaged around the pagoda like a madman, but he could not break the powerful seal inside.
“I can’t accept this. Why, why did this happen?! I was so close, so close!”
Sensing that the Pagoda Tower had recovered its strength and imprisoned all the power of his Essence Soul inside, Yi Xie felt deep despair
