Heavenly Dao Rankings: I Am Exposed As The Sword God Novel - Chapter 286
Chapter 286: The Mysterious City in the Chaotic Divine Region
“Ignorant mortal, you’re courting death!” The Qin Family’s Saint snorted coldly. With a wave of his hand, terrifying magic power instantly tore through the void and attacked the mortal who had just mocked them.
The Qin family’s prestige could not be trampled on. If a mere mortal dared to mock him, only death awaited him.
Therefore, the Qin Family’s Saint was extremely ruthless. The power of that strike was enough to shatter the soul of a Golden Immortal, let alone a mere mortal.
With this strike, the mortal would probably turn into smoke that dissipated along with the ground under his feet.
Terrifying magic power carried the power of heaven and earth as it attacked the mortal like a meteorite falling from the nine heavens.
However, in the next second, the mortal waved his hand, and the magic power that was enough to flatten a small mountain was instantly destroyed.
The shockwave formed by the dissipating energy was swept backward by an invisible force towards the Qin family.
The Qin family immediately used their magic power to defend against the shockwave.
However, he could not calm down for a long time.
A mere mortal from the lower realm could actually easily neutralize a Saint’s strike.
The scene was truly shocking.
‘No, this is definitely not a mortal.’
‘Is he Li Yu?’
Everyone from the Qin family immediately had a guess. To be able to withstand a Saint’s strike so easily, he had to be at least a Great Saint.
In their opinion, Li Yu should be at the Great Saint Realm since he could capture Qin Tianhuang.
“Ignorant people of the Immortal Realm, if you don’t want to die, get lost!” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming said coldly.
He did not have any grudges with the Qin family. Furthermore, he had just decided to return to the lower realm and did not want to kill anymore. Otherwise, with his temper in the past, he would have long sent that Qin family to the netherworld with a single palm strike.
The Qin family’s Saint King, Qin Zheng, frowned slightly. He looked at the middle-aged man below who was no different from a mortal and asked, “You’re Li Yu?”
“No, I’m just a mortal!” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming replied calmly.
“In that case, I’ll have a taste of your strength, mortal!” Qin Zheng’s expression turned cold. The powerful magic power of a Saint King poured out. The terrifying pressure directly bent the trees below, and the ground caved in. Even the surrounding space twisted violently.
His figure flashed and instantly arrived in front of Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming…
Smack!
A crisp and pleasant slap sounded in the surroundings.
Qin Zheng spun on the spot a few times from the slap. In the end, he was pressed to the ground by the terrifying domain power and could not move.
“A-a Heavenly Venerable!” Qin Zheng was horrified. He did not expect this person to be in the Heavenly Venerable realm. This was too unbelievable.
Qin Zheng had seen a Heavenly Venerable before, so he could sense what the domain power represented.
Above the Saint King was the Holy Lord Realm, and above the Holy Lord was the Sovereign Realm. The Heavenly Venerable Realm was a realm even stronger than the Sovereign Realm.
In front of a Heavenly Venerable, his Saint King realm was like an ant that could not withstand a single blow.
“Can you get lost now?” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming asked coldly.
“Yes, yes, I’ll get lost now!” Qin Zheng was terrified. He could not care less about the Qin family’s dignity. In the face of a Heavenly Venerable-level expert, his Qin family’s dignity could only be placed aside.
After Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming withdrew his domain power, Qin Zheng flew back to the Qin family with a dirty face.
“Patriarch, are you alright?” A Qin family member asked.
Qin Zheng did not say a word. His expression was grim as he immediately left the Qingyun Sect with his family.
The Qin family’s prestige had been trampled under their feet today. His face was burning with pain, but the Qin family would not take this lying down.
The Heavenly Venerable realm was not an invincible existence. The Qin family had stood strong in the Immortal Realm for countless years, so they naturally had a stronger backer.
Sooner or later, they would let the Qingyun Sect know that there was always someone better.
Qin Zheng felt that the person just now was likely Li Yu’s true backer. It was also the reason why the Ye family and the Gongshu family did not gain anything and returned in defeat.
Seeing the Qin family flee in defeat, for some reason, Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming felt secretly pleased.
‘Sigh, it feels pretty good to disguise as a mortal and teach these people from the Immortal Realm a lesson. Hehe, I wonder if this is also a form of secular experience!’

He suddenly felt that he had grasped one of the reasons why Li Yu lived in seclusion in the lower realm.
In the past, he would not have any trouble killing a Holy Lord realm expert, let alone feel carefree.
However, he felt good after teaching a Saint King a lesson.
Indeed, pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger was the best!
“Greetings, expert. Thank you for your help!” Xie Fengchen arrived in front of Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming and bowed with cupped hands. He was already prepared to die.
These high and mighty immortals did not mind casually crushing an ant-like mortal like him. Fortunately, this expert attracted their attention in time and drove them away, allowing him to escape this calamity.
“It’s fine. It was nothing!” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming returned to his ordinary appearance and waved his hand.
“Is the expert also from the Qingyun Sect?” Xie Fengchen asked.
“I’m not. I’m just a woodcutter at the foot of the mountain!” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming began to pretend to be a mortal again.

Xie Fengchen nodded with a meaningful smile and did not ask further. Instead, he bowed and cupped his hands. “Nice to meet you. I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll take my leave first!”
Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming cupped his hands in return.
The disciples of the Qingyun Sect did not pay much attention to what was happening outside. They were already used to a wave of immortals coming here every other day to cause trouble.
On the other hand, the patrolling disciples were curious about the identity of the expert who had just helped.
Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming gave the Qingyun Sect a meaningful look, then glanced at the Gongshu family members in the forest beside him who were covered in green vines. He turned around with a smile and walked down the mountain.
His life in seclusion in the city had begun.
…
In the Chaotic Divine Region, while Li Yu, Murong Xingqiao, and Guo Qilin were exploring this hidden world, they accidentally arrived near a mysterious city in the depths of the Chaotic Divine Region.
The strange power of heaven and earth and spatial laws outside the city were something that even Murong Xingqiao’s Eye of Truth could not break or fix. He could not even see the actual scene.
Fortunately, Li Yu’s Great Dao Golden Body and the Heart of Heaven and Earth were powerful enough to allow him to see the truth.
However, after entering this city, all the strange power of heaven and earth and spatial laws returned to normal.
Li Yu did not expect such a city to exist in the depths of the Chaotic Divine Region.
He did not expect the city pool to be so prosperous.
The city was not small. There were many pavilions and streams of people. There were many shops in the city, but they were mainly filled with casinos, brothels, and taverns.
It was simply a large-scale adult entertainment city.
There were very few women in the city. As far as the eye could see, they were basically all men. Furthermore, most of them were wearing masks to conceal their faces and figures. Some had changed their appearance through secret techniques.
Obviously, no one here wanted to be recognized or known.
“Sir, do you want to come in and play a few rounds? The dealer will deal the cards on the spot!”
“Sir, come on. I have a female devil I just captured from the Chaotic Sea. She’s a peerless beauty, and I have a female demon I captured from the Wind Canary Star. She can be used for dual cultivation and can be harvested…”
Listening to the advertising slogans of the surrounding brothels, Li Yu roughly understood what kind of existence this place was.
It was no wonder that so many people had to hide their figures and appearances. It was indeed shady to come here.
