The First Demon of the Chan Sect-Chapter 786 - 329: The Beginning of Plundering

"Buzz!"

"Revenge must be exacted, grievances must be redressed! You beast, you’ve chased me for so long, it’s time for me to have some fun!"

Li Qingming finally made his move, his muscles radiating mystic yellow brilliance, and upon his hand which seemed capable of plucking stars and seizing the sun, the Bitter Bamboo Spear shimmered with infinite light. Its rule power alone weighed billions, crushing the space into collapse, its divine might vast and sweeping ten thousand li.

"Sssth!"

The white giant snake frantically hissed, desperately fleeing for its life. It was once a terror that could cleave through those in the Heavenly Dao Realm and trample over all Great Powers. Yet now, it was frightened out of its wits by the very creature it had once toyed with like an ant.

"Clang!"

A metallic hum sounded as the snake wildly fled within a fenced space spanning ten thousand li. The small sword it wielded to defend against the Bitter Bamboo Spear was instantly pierced through by the spear’s tip and shattered into more than a dozen pieces, falling into the endless Thunder Abyss below.

"Still trying to run? Get back here!"

Li Qingming’s eyes burst with a sharp gleam as he brandished the long spear single-handedly. The Bitter Bamboo Spear, after years of tempering and transformation, had successfully advanced into a Heavenly Dao Treasure, possessing immortal divinity.

It transformed into a burst of purple rainbow light blasting through the sky; the Thunder Sea within ten thousand li all around began to surge violently.

"Spurt!"

Finally, a jet of snow-white and silky liquid shot into the sky; the white giant snake wailed in agony. Its tail, now utterly black, was penetrated by the Bitter Bamboo Spear, creating a hole several zhang wide. The three zhang tail was brutally severed, turning into a puff of blood mist that rained down onto the Heavenly Vault like a silent, light snowfall.

And upon its body, the white scale armor that tightly wrapped around its form began to emit heartrending cracking sounds. They shattered inch by inch into fine powder, completely unable to protect the fragile body underneath.

The white giant snake’s spirit was on the brink of doom; its body dissolved like mist, turning into a cold, bone-chilling fog. It broke through the fenced area spanning ten thousand li and tried to escape against the sky.

But dreams are full while reality is skeletal; it simply could not escape. Li Qingming had already locked his eyes on the snake, outpacing it in speed and directly cutting off its escape route.

At this moment, Li Qingming, bare-chested, golden Tao Runes flickered on and off across his body. Mystic yellow light lurked behind the runes, closely guarding Li Qingming’s physical form.

His Daoist robe was tattered on the lower half, with the purple Bitter Bamboo Spear slung over the shoulder. Having been struck by numerous bolts of thunder, his dark hair was a chaotic mess, making him look as wild as those old men from the Barbaric Sacred Star.

Right now, he was able to utterly dominate the white giant snake, which in turn could only flee frantically back and forth, trying to avoid Li Qingming’s raptor-like gaze that viewed it as prey.

"Boom!"

Li Qingming unleashed various close-combat skills, treating the giant snake as his quarry, attacking it as one would a common beast, with a fierce barrage of hammering blows.

It was pitiful that not too long ago, the snake had taken delight in toying with Li Qingming, yet now had fallen to the status of an unlucky python being repeatedly slammed around by Li Qingming, its life hanging by a thread.

"Boom!"

Li Qingming stowed away the Bitter Bamboo Spear. With just the strength of his physical body and a few punches, the giant snake was left gasping for breath, falling to the ground.

"Having been in this broken space for so long, it’s also time to change up the taste!" Li Qingming stepped forward, staring at the giant snake with its flesh torn and tail missing, and muttered to himself.

Watching the demon before it anxiously, the snake tried several times to struggle to its body upright, but time and again was suppressed by Li Qingming, whose slaps echoed louder with each hit.

"What are you planning to do?" The snake lay defeated in the void, its half-open eyes opening and closing weakly.

Li Qingming began to smile, saying, "After arriving here, I’ve been in constant flight, with no idea how much time has passed; it’s been so many years since I’ve tasted flesh. Your flesh seems tender and fair, why don’t I make you my meal?"

"..."

The space fell into an eerie silence, but shortly after, the giant snake began to twist its broken body frantically, howling skyward.

My heavens, this alien really is a demon, to actually think of devouring it for sustenance! A Great Power that once stood atop the food chain in the Endless Thunder Abyss, now regarded as food by an ant - this was, to the snake, even more unacceptable than death.

"Bang!"

Li Qingming shook his head, slapped the giant snake on the top of its skull, and said, "That’s enough, why mourn? Just tell me how to get out of this damned place and I’ll spare your life!"

Perhaps to continue its survival, or for some other reason, the giant snake fell silent. Its body stopped writhing, and after a long while, it said, "Since its birth, the Endless Thunder Abyss has never had an alien race enter— you are an exception. Thus, I do not know how to leave this place!"

"What?" Li Qingming’s face changed instantly, "Are you saying this place is completely closed off, with absolutely no way out?"

The giant snake nodded and then shook its head, saying, "You could say that, but nothing in this world is absolute! Weren’t you sucked in here by an accidental space rift?"

Li Qingming paused, as if recalling something, and asked, "Is there any blessed land, or dangerous place here?"

"Hmm?" The giant snake began to relax, thinking since it was already caught between the knife and the block, it might as well send this plague god away as soon as possible and regain its freedom.

"Now that you mention it, there is a place!" The giant snake’s eyes flashed with a subtle brilliance as it struggled to move its limp body, its thick length gazing in the southwest direction, "In the southwest of the Endless Thunder Abyss, the place where I was born, there is an array guarded tightly by Tao Rules. As to what’s within the array, I do not know, only that my life was granted by the array!"

"There’s such a place?" As soon as the giant snake finished speaking, Li Qingming felt a thumping in his heart, as if an invisible thread was pulling him towards that place.

The giant snake seemed intrigued as it nodded its triangular head and said, "That place is constantly enveloped by Tao Tribulation Thunder, and every now and then, a massive wave of Chaotic Spirit Qi surges from the array. My Transformation Thunder was obtained from that very array!"

"Let’s go, take me to see it!" Li Qingming felt an increasingly strong heartbeat, eager to see that place for himself.

A sly smile of successful scheming flickered in the giant snake’s eyes as it hurriedly recovered some physical strength and led Li Qingming towards the southwest of the Endless Thunder Abyss.

...

At this moment, in the distant Pangu’s Great Thousand World, outside the crisp and transparent Chaos Crystal Wall, a group of figures in hooded black robes were floating weightlessly. They were few in number, just five, and each emanated a magnificent presence that made the stars tremble.

"Heavenly King, this spatial transference has been somewhat peculiar, hasn’t it? We’re billions of star years away from our destination, yet suddenly we’re outside the Pangu Huaxia Great World?" A Black Robed Man at the end of the group spoke, his voice hoarse, carrying an unspeakably raspy tone.

The leading Black Robed Man turned to glance at the speaker, his voice chillingly cold, "Tu Ling, there are things better left unknown to you!"

"Humph!" The Black Robed Man known as Tu Ling shuddered at these words, let out a cold snort, and fell silent.

"Heavenly King, shall we proceed as usual?" Another Black Robed Man standing close behind the Heavenly King shook his head and stepped forward, whispering.

With a scornful laugh, the Heavenly King said, "We’ve almost plucked all our nails from this world; why show them any courtesy? Directly blow up this damned Chaos Crystal Wall, let the little ones out and plunder the Pangu Great Thousand World!"

"Yes!"

The other four Black Robed Men vibrated excitedly, as bloodthirsty red light shot out from their robes and a monstrous aura of evil enveloped the Nine Heavens and the world.

"Then, let’s begin!" The Heavenly King hesitated for a moment before suddenly assuming a meditative pose in the void. The other four also exchanged looks and followed suit, sitting cross-legged.

"Hum!"

The void trembled as hundreds of stars, dimly emanating a black aura, suddenly brightened. Black starlight transformed into fierce lightning, striking down from the sky, enveloping the five of them.

Garbed in the black starlight, the five of them grunted in unison. Their hands moved rapidly, forming complex and intricate Seal Techniques accompanied by low and mysterious Spell chants. Countless stars in the void suddenly began to converge their starlight, and at the same time, an immense star, radiating Infinite Star Light, rose into the air from the Endless Star Domain.

This star was billions of kilometers in size, with golden Spell inscriptions densely packed in every inch, along with powerful talismans of all kinds. All the Spell inscriptions and talismans interlocked, forming a terrifying star in the void that sent shivers down one’s spine.

"Boom!"

A rule tsunami of earth, water, fire, and wind colors erupted from the giant star, condensing into an immensely large black long knife. The long knife shone brilliantly, bursting with surges of rule power, its might capable of annihilating a Great Power of Half-step Heavenly Dao Realm.

"Void Star Blade, strike!" The five seated figures sneered in unison, the bloodthirsty gleam flashing before them as they pushed their Seal Formations forward sharply.

"Boom!"

The massive Void Star Blade struck the crystal-clear Chaos Crystal Wall with unparalleled ferocity. For a moment, time seemed to stand still, followed by an ear-shattering roar. Then, Heaven and Earth collapsed, and the Void turned to dust.

As the Void Star Blade dissipated, a massive portal, hundreds of feet in width and length, suddenly appeared on the Chaos Crystal Wall.

The Heavenly King rose to his feet, looked at the boundless portal, and laughed heartily, "Haha, the portal is open! Tu Ling, Blood Oath, Kuang Yan, Extinction, release the little ones, plunder the Pangu Great Thousand World!"
