The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 391 The Enemy Arrives

Li Ye’s body shrank to its normal size at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Feihong Bodhisattva stopped and landed on the altar. She didn’t look back to answer the arhats’ questions, nor did she go to manage the cultivators of the demon clan, but just looked at Li Ye and observed with her bright eyes.

With Feihong Bodhisattva’s help, Li Ye succeeded in absorbing all the raging power of the Tao of Heaven. Now he sat cross-legged, strengthening his newly acquired strength.

Because Feihong Bodhisattva stood in front of him, he had nothing to worry about. He was cultivating stably.

Li Ye didn’t completely refine the surging power of the Tao of Heaven, but he managed to stabilize it inside his body.

Above his Ocean of Qi, a huge ink-colored bead engraved with countless runes was floating in the air, and the Dragon Qi was swimming around it. The Dragon Qi looked very happy, as if it had encountered the most delicious food.

According to previous experience, Li Ye knew that the Dragon Qi would digest the power of the Tao of Heaven step by step and improved itself. Then, it would feed Li Ye.

Actually, even without Feihong Bodhisattva’s help, the Dragon Qi inside his body could also suppress the raging power of the Tao of Heaven and eventually condensed it, but it would take longer.

Since the Tao of Heaven gave Li Ye the power, it wouldn’t accidentally blow him up.

However, Feihong Bodhisattva didn’t know that Li Ye had Dragon Qi in his body. She helped him because she thought he couldn’t bear the power of the Tao of Heaven in the case of an ordinary cultivator.

In addition, the power of the Tao of Heaven gave Li Ye another two things, a sword and a shield. Both of them were ink-colored and engraved with obscure hieroglyphic characters. They were floating on the Ocean of Qi, like boats.

As soon as Li Ye saw them, he knew their functions.

The sword was for attacking, and it could give off an extremely powerful Sword Qi. Moreover, it was not for one-time use. As long as the sword in the Ocean of Qi still existed, it could be used next time after it was raised for some time.

The shield was the same as the sword, but the difference was that it could withstand powerful attacks.

Li Ye didn’t know how powerful the sword and the shield would be. He had not yet used them, after all. But after communicating with them, he knew that they were so powerful that they frightened people.

In other words, after Li Ye entered the Spiritual Master Realm and lost the jade medallion left by Li Xian, he now had the ability to save his life again. Not only could he save his life, but he also had a powerful attack, which was definitely a guarantee that he could fight back in a hopeless and dangerous situation.

The power of the Tao of Heaven was an unexpected gift. In the trip to the secret region, the target that Li Ye competed with Land Buddhism and the Immortal Court was the Luck of heaven.

The Luck of heaven was now in between Li Ye’s eyebrows.

That was a tiny quaint scroll.

After opening the scroll with his mind, Li Ye was a little stunned.

He originally thought there would be pictures or words in it. But in fact, there were only a few lines of ink without a specific image, like clouds or winds. It had a detached artistic conception, with no trace.

But Li Ye felt the breath of Tao from it. Unlike the Tao of Yin and Yang, it wasn’t the specific Tao but the original Tao.

The breath of the Great Tao in the scroll made Li Ye feel the power of heaven and earth.

That was the Luck of heaven.

Now Li Ye understood that the so-called Luck of heaven was the power to rule heaven and earth, invisible and without substance.

At least for now, it was invisible and had no substance.

Then the question was how it worked, or how to use it to rule heaven and earth.

Li Ye was puzzled for a while.

He remembered what the monkey had said. He pondered, “The world is in chaos, and the order has collapsed. The Great Tao shows, while the Luck of heaven scatters everywhere. He who gets it gets the world... Therefore, the person who gets the Luck of heaven is qualified to rebuild the order and rule heaven and earth in the chaotic world. This is the same reason as the Dragon Qi represents the Hidden Dragon. The difference is that Dragon Qi represents the qualification to rule heaven and earth, but the Luck of heaven can rule heaven and earth.”

He thought he was right, so he thought further, “Dragon Qi is very useful, and its help and promotion to me is obvious. Now it seems that the Luck of heaven should be in a similar situation. But I don’t know how to use the scroll which was turned into from the Luck of heaven...”

“Maybe, when the time comes, everything will turn out naturally. It’s like when I couldn’t resolve the Small Mystery Formation on the Tai Xuan Summit on Cloud-engulfed Mountain, the Dragon Qi launched automatically.”

Now, Li Ye understood a little. “It seems that the Tao of Heaven set up the secret region and gave the Luck of heaven to seek and select the cultivator who could realize its will.”

After pondering for a while, Li Ye gathered his thoughts.

Anyway, in the trip to the secret region, Li Ye not only got the Luck of heaven but also got the power given by the Tao of Heaven, the Sword of heaven and the Shield of heaven—let’s call the sword and the shield in this way.

There were both powerful means that could be used immediately and sharp tools that could continuously enhance a cultivator’s strength. Li Ye became much more powerful than before he entered the secret region, and he would continue to become more powerful.

At this point, Li Ye opened his eyes.

He didn’t open his eyes voluntarily, but the tremble all around brought him back to reality.

He stood up and saw a picture of the world collapsing. The sky was cracking, the earth was falling apart, and people couldn’t stand stably. The cultivators of the demon clan, however, did not panic. It was obvious to everyone that the secret region was about to disappear.

Li Ye said to Feihong Bodhisattva in front of him with cupped fists, “Thank you for your help.”

Feihong Bodhisattva wasn’t indifferent this time. She fixed her eyes on Li Ye, shining with the light of wisdom in her eyes, as if she wanted to see Li Ye through.

Gradually, whether she could really saw anything or not, Feihong Bodhisattva understood something.

A long time later, when Li Ye began to feel uncomfortable, Feihong Bodhisattva smiled gently and directly expressed her appreciation. “Although your acquisition of the Luck of heaven was guided by heaven, you can get the approval of the Tao of Heaven, which proves that I’m right.”

Although Feihong Bodhisattva was indifferent in daily life as if she didn’t care about anything, she was straightforward. After all, due to her cultivation realm, she didn’t need to conceal anything, and she could do everything as she pleased.

No one let her care, let her show appreciation, let her smile, and let her have an obvious mood before, not because she had no emotion, but because no one was qualified.

After hearing Feihong Bodhisattva’s words, Li Ye shook his head slightly. He knew that both Feihong Bodhisattva and he were qualified to get the Luck of heaven because they both stood here.

But there was only one wisp of Luck of heaven. He could get it, to some extent, because of Feihong Bodhisattva’s help.

At this point, the secret region completely collapsed, and everyone was wrapped in the extreme white light, losing their ability to distinguish things.

When everyone recovered his sight again, they already stood on the small isolated peak where Li Ye “intercepted” Chen Jizhen and Huang Jingyuan previously.

When the cultivators of the demon clan came back to earth, they all congratulated Li Ye with cupped fists. “Prince An, congratulations!”

Among them, Red Boy and You Daxiao were smiling sincerely and very excited, like seeing the sun after long rainy days. They looked like they saw hope.

The demon clan allied with Li Ye, and Red Boy, You Daxiao, and the others came to help, because the demon clan wanted to go out into the world. Now that Li Ye got the Luck of heaven, the meaning was self-evident and it was absolutely great news for the demon clan.

To some degree, Li Ye could ask for more cultivators’ power from the demon clan since he got the Luck of heaven.

Red Boy and You Daxiao looked very enthusiastic. It seemed that they were eager to ask Li Ye what kind of power the Tao of Heaven had given him and what opportunity the Luck of heaven had given him.

But they didn’t ask because Feihong Bodhisattva stood in front of them.

All the cultivators of the demon clan were very excited, but not complacent. After the initial uproar, they gradually quieted down, and they all looked at the same person oddly.

Feihong Bodhisattva.

Some seriously injured arhats were immediately on alert and took out their magic tools at the same time as they met the demons’ eyes, looking as though confronted by formidable enemies.

It was a delicate situation.

Both the Immortal Court and Land Buddhism didn’t want Li Ye to get the Luck of heaven.

When the Immortal Court knew that they couldn’t get it, they didn’t want Li Ye to get it either. Now that Li Ye got it, it was possible for Land Buddhism to destroy it.

Killing Li Ye could end all trouble.

Feihong Bodhisattva might be able to do that.

After all, when everyone’s cultivation was suppressed and the absolute gap narrowed in the secret region, Feihong Bodhisattva could still have upper hand in facing the siege of the demon clan. Now that everyone’s strength was restored, and the absolute gap expanded, Feihong Bodhisattva would have a more obvious advantage.

But the demons just looked oddly and didn’t intend to take action.

Even when the arhats took out their magic tools, they were mostly barehanded.

Now even a fool could tell that Feihong Bodhisattva and Li Ye had a close relationship.

At least, if Feihong Bodhisattva wanted to kill Li Ye, she wouldn’t have helped him refine the power of the Tao of Heaven when he was in danger.

Only those arhats were still nervous at this time.

Li Ye smiled and said to Feihong Bodhisattva, “After three days of debate on Tao with you last time, I’m longing for more. If you are free, how about going to Taiyuan?”

Li Ye “saw” that the Pinglu Army had already taken charge of Taiyuan, and now he was the owner of Taiyuan, so he could naturally invite Feihong Bodhisattva.

But his words still seemed a little odd, and the reason was exceptionally inadequate.

During forty years in the village of the secret region, the two people were busy with their lives, but they still had time to debate Tao, especially in the last years.

So Feihong Bodhisattva rolled her eyes at Li Ye.

Li Ye stood stunned there immediately.

Not only him, but also the cultivators of the demon clan, who saw Feihong Bodhisattva’s movement, widened their eyes.

Feihong Bodhisattva, who had no happiness or sadness, would roll her eyes?

They had to admit that her movement was flexible and beautiful and that there was a differentiated beauty.

Seeing everyone stunned, Feihong Bodhisattva narrowed her eyes.

“Can’t I roll my eyes? Am I a stone? Really treat me like a statue in a temple?”

But the next instant, Feihong Bodhisattva smiled.

Her smile was like the sunrise and nature’s resurrection in the spring.

The smile would have been perfect, if it had not had the meaning of schadenfreude.

Looking at the sky, Feihong Bodhisattva said to Li Ye, “If you can survive, you can invite me.”

Li Ye and the demons looked in the same direction as Feihong Bodhisattva.

Dozens of bright spots emerged there. Soon, they turned into dozens of long rainbows and flew toward them.

The first one was purple, and it was flying with great momentum.

That was a Taoist in purple. He looked solemn and murderous. It was Zhang Ji.
