692: Heavenly Venerable appears

Boom!

As the bell rang out.

The sky tore open.

An ancient bronze bell, several feet in size, emerged from the torn rift.

The power of the Great Dao suppressed the heavens and earth.

"That is..."

"Dao Armament!"

Mr. He's face sank.

He felt all his magical power and Divine Sense bound within his body.

The moment the bronze bell appeared, he had already lost the ability to resist.

"How dare you injure my Disciple!"

At this moment.

A chilling voice echoed in the ears of Mr. He and the other two.

The next moment.

Beneath the ancient bronze bell.

Several Black-robed Figures suddenly appeared.

The leader stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes long and narrow, his Late-stage Dao Integration Aura fully unleashed.

"Dao Lord!"

Mr. He's face was somewhat pale, his heart bitter.

At this moment, he was far from being able to contend with a Dao Lord.

Moreover.

This Dao Lord also wielded a Dao Armament.

Mr. He fell silent.

Behind him.

Mu Changge's face was pale, his Nascent Soul power, in such a scene, was like a mere speck of dust.

"Earth King Palace, as expected, is not simple..."

Mu Changge gently closed his eyes.

Jin Yu, who was sitting cross-legged, spat out a mouthful of blood with a 'pfft'.

As a mere Golden Core Cultivator, he was still alive under such pressure.

This was most likely due to the golden seal that flickered with a faint golden light.

When the ancient bell appeared, the golden seal, stimulated by its Aura, shone with golden light, passively resisting the ancient bell's Aura.

However, at this moment, the golden seal's light was rapidly dimming.

It was clearly unable to contend with the ancient bronze bell for an extended period.

"Hmph, Golden Emperor Seal..."

Beneath the ancient bronze bell, the mysterious Dao Lord, standing with his hands behind his back, let out a cold snort.

He stretched out his hand and pressed downwards.

This seemingly powerless press, however, filled Mr. He and Mu Changge with a sense of impending death.

Yet, they didn't even have the right to flee or dodge.

They were forcibly bound in place by that Aura.

"Hmm?"

Just then.

The Dao Lord, standing with his hands behind his back, paused.

A hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.

The next moment.

Whoosh!

In the sky.

A crystal-clear green lotus appeared in the sky.

Dong!

When this sky-shrouding green lotus appeared.

The ancient bell, suspended high in the heavens, began to gently vibrate.

Boom!

At the center of the green lotus.

A peerless figure, holding an ancient green lamp, appeared within the heart of the green lotus.

"Another Dao Lord... Is that also a Dao Armament...?"

This green lotus blocked the power of the ancient bell.

On the hillside.

Mr. He, from whom the Aura of death had dissipated, looked upwards with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

Within the green lotus.

The Goddess of the South Sea's Divine Sense landed on Mu Changge below.

A hint of excitement flickered in her eyes.

She had followed the induction of the indestructible azure lamp all the way here.

She had finally made it in time.

If she had arrived even a moment later... The consequences... The Goddess of the South Sea's face darkened as she looked towards the ancient bronze bell and the mysterious Dao Lord standing with his hands behind his back.

"Hehe."

"Today is truly a double blessing."

Beneath the ancient bronze bell.

The mysterious Dao Lord suddenly shifted from surprise to joy.

His tone was filled with emotion, as if with a sigh.

He hadn't expected.

That today, he might be able to obtain two supreme Legacies in one fell swoop.

The Aura emanating from that green lamp was clearly of the same origin but different form as his own cultivation.

As a Dao Lord of the Earth King Palace.

He knew more.

The five Legacies, though of the same origin yet different forms, when combined, could achieve the supreme immortal strategy.

This was the meaning of the Earth King Palace's existence.

And also the meaning of his existence.

"Hahahahaha!"

The mysterious Dao Lord grew even more delighted.

"Suppress!"

The next moment, however, his voice suddenly shifted.

The endless Dao of the earth was unleashed from his body, all of it merging into the ancient bronze bell above his head.

Dong!

The ancient bronze bell shook.

It suddenly flew out.

Appearing above the peerless green lotus.

Dong!

An endless suppressive force emanated from the ancient bell.

Pressing down towards the peerless Goddess holding the ancient green lamp below.

"Hmph."

The Goddess of the South Sea's face hardened, and she let out a cold snort.

The ancient green lamp in her hand gently floated up, trembling slightly.

The green lotus shone upon the world.

The power of the Great Dao bloomed.

Contending equally with the ancient bronze bell above it.

After the green lamp returned.

With the help of the green lamp's power, her Dao injuries had already recovered.

Although her cultivation was still at the Middle Stage of Dao Integration.

The mysterious Dao Lord opposite her had a higher cultivation.

But for that mysterious Dao Lord to suppress her, it was probably impossible.

Moreover, the Aura on that mysterious Dao Lord and the power of the Great Dao from this bronze bell gave her some conjectures.

"Is this the work of the other person who entered the Immortal Palace of Fortune with Qing and obtained the Legacy back then...?"

"Indeed, just as Qing predicted..."

In the past, Qing had once said that the five of them were hunters to each other.

In the end, a great battle would inevitably occur, and perhaps only one would survive, monopolizing the immortal strategy.

However, something unexpected happened later.

He had not yet waited for that moment.

And then perished.

But among the other four, there would certainly be those who wanted to gather all the Legacies.

Today, she had met one.

The Goddess of the South Sea's thoughts raced.

Dao Aura manifested on her body, and before her, the indestructible azure lamp burned eternally.

Within the lotus-like azure flames.

The power of the Great Dao was unceasing.

Resisting the ancient bronze bell.

"Suppress!"

In the torn sky.

The mysterious Dao Lord's face slightly darkened.

This woman, only at the Middle Stage of Dao Integration, was able to wield a Dao Armament, which already surprised him somewhat.

However, at this moment, he was even more surprised.

He used his Late-stage Dao Integration power to activate the earth king bell.

Yet he could not suppress her.

This made his face look rather unpleasant.

Boom!

The sleeves of the Earth King Palace Dao Lord, whose face was grim, wildly fluttered.

He roared, and all the Dao Aura from his body merged into the earth king bell.

Dong!

A heavy bell chime completely shattered this gray space.

"Hmph."

Beneath the earth king bell.

Above the indestructible azure lamp, the flames suddenly trembled.

The Goddess of the South Sea grunted.

Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.

After all, her cultivation was slightly inferior.

"I don't need to fight head-on; I just need to find an opportunity to take them and escape..."

Although the Goddess of the South Sea was injured.

Her compatibility with the green lamp was extremely high, as they were old friends.

The power she could unleash had already exceeded her cultivation limit.

"Senior Brother, please ask the Celestial Venerable to come out of seclusion."

In the sky.

Behind the mysterious Dao Lord.

A powerful figure, yet unable to participate in the conflict between the two, spoke, suggesting.

"Alright."

After a moment of silence.

The mysterious Dao Lord at Late-stage Dao Integration nodded in agreement.

The commotion here was quite large, and if they continued to drag it out, it might only lead to more unforeseen variables.

"Please ask the Celestial Venerable to come out of seclusion!"

Several Dao Lords of the Earth King Palace bowed together towards the ancient bell.

Their words, however, caused the Goddess of the South Sea, who was contemplating a way to escape, and Mr. He below, to change their expressions drastically.

"Celestial Venerable..."

Om~

The ancient bronze bell vibrated.

An inexplicable connection transcended space and time, reaching into the distance.

The next moment.

It seemed as if a supreme existence was awakening.

Between heaven and earth, only silence remained.

Heaven and earth were silent.

The Great Dao was voiceless.

Om~

A figure with a stern expression, dressed in a dark yellow, luxurious long robe, suddenly appeared between heaven and earth.

His mere appearance caused everything between heaven and earth to lose its luster.

"Greetings, Celestial Venerable!"
