Infinite Professions-Chapter 108 - 32: The Grand Performance (Super Long - ) (Part 4)

"Do you still want to be their slaves, still want to be wantonly exploited by them, ruling over you, humiliating your wives and daughters, and seizing your property?"

"Now, the teacher is alone in the enemy camp facing that so-called Celestial Destiny, we can’t let him fight alone, for us, for the Martial Country he is sacrificing alone!"

"Attack, attack, for the teacher, for the Martial Country, and more importantly for ourselves and the people we must protect—attack!!!"

With these words, the fire was fueled, and the entire camp boiled over. Chen Luojun led the charge out, directly launching an attack on the Three Kingdoms army formation that was encircled from three sides and restrained.

"Kill!!!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Instantly, the killing shouts shook the skies, morale burning like fire.

Within the Martial Country, it was even more bustling. Whether in towns or villages, everyone gathered in front of the grand curtain, watching Shen Hex within the nine Celestial Destiny Killing Arrays, unconsciously clenching their fists.

"Teacher, this..."

Looking back at the battlefield, within the killing array, Lin Cangyu halted his offensive, looking at Zhong Qingcang with uncertainty and wonder.

"He’s acting, he’s acting!"

Zhong Qingcang was also shaken awake, instantly turning his eyes to Lin Cangyu: "Quickly kill him, quickly kill him!"

His words were filled with surprise and anger, and even regret.

He understood, he finally understood what he had overlooked!

He overlooked Shen Hex’s way of doing things!

Ever since Li Taiyi became Li Qingshan, all his actions have had a strong purpose.

Just like the previous battle at the Wind Thunder Mountain with Dongfang Bai, from building momentum before the battle to staying behind afterward, it was to display power, create deterrence, and show his own changes, numbing the nerves from all sides to buy time for the development of the Martial Country.

It was the same towards Dongfang Bai and towards them, those negotiations years ago at the Wind Thunder Mountain Range, and now this so-called lone confrontation is not just to verify his guesses about Celestial Destiny but to direct a grand performance.

From start to finish, from the negotiations fifty years ago at the Wind Thunder Mountain to this present lone confrontation, he has been acting, creating a persona for himself, one who overthrows the aristocracy, dispels worldly darkness, and rescues the Spirit Control Continent.

Otherwise, with his personality, his way of doing things, he would absolutely not waste time saying so many words to the enemy.

All this is his setup, his arrangement, with the aim to destroy the Celestial Destiny they cultivated, even...to seize Celestial Destiny.

"That’s right, don’t trust him!"

Not only Zhong Qingcang, but Shentu Ming on the battlefield also awoke, speaking hastily to the wavering Lin Cangyu: "This is all his disguise, he has been doing everything for himself from start to finish. My Shentu Family was slaughtered entirely by him as proof. Cangyu, don’t be deceived by him!"

"That’s right!"

Zhong Qingcang also uttered angrily: "He has already sent Spirit Beasts to attack the Three Great Kingdoms and Spirit Control City, spreading war across the continent. Only by killing him can we swiftly end this battle and prevent the rebirth of the Dark Demon King Beast, Cangyu, prioritize the bigger picture!"

"I..."

Lin Cangyu’s words faltered, uncertain of how to choose.

"Celestial Destiny Combat Skills!"

At this moment, atop the Ice Phoenix and Fire Phoenix, Shentu Ming with reddened eyes raised an item.

It was a badge, a shining, dazzling badge filled with powerful energy!

The Chapter of Hope!

The Celestial Destiny Divine Artifact!

Introduced by Spirit Control City, the nine Chapters of Celestial Destiny, symbols of successive generations of Celestial Destiny Spirit Masters, are returned to the Holy City after the Dark Demon King Beast is sealed and the Power of Destiny dissipates, passed on to the next generation of Celestial Destiny Spirit Masters.

So one generation after another, these nine Chapters of Celestial Destiny have truly become divine artifacts, carrying a portion of the Power of Destiny. Celestial Destiny Spirit Masters can invoke it to unleash the most powerful Celestial Destiny Combat Skills.

However, doing so will consume a massive amount of the Power of Destiny, possibly even leading to the dispersal of Celestial Destiny, so it can only be used to seal the Dark Demon King Beast.

This time is no exception; although Zhong Qingcang nurtured them to confront Li Taiyi, he feared the dispersal of Celestial Destiny and the resurgence of darkness that no one could resist. Therefore, he advised them, not until the last moment can the Celestial Destiny Combat Skills be used.

But now...it is the last moment!

Shentu Ming could no longer concern himself, holding the Chapter of Hope, triggering the Power of Destiny, ready to utterly destroy the enemy before him.

But...

"Bang!!!"

A soft sound, exploding.

Shentu Ming’s pupils contracted, looking up with difficulty, only to see a startling crack in the hope badge, the Celestial Destiny Divine Artifact, handed down for thousands of years, in his hand.

Simultaneously, within the Celestial Destiny Killing Array, a breath suddenly surged, skyrocketed, and wildly increased...
