145: You have the spirit of the ancestor, I have the spirit of the grandmother
Buzz!
The next moment, a glowing giant hand burst forth from the spatial rift, grabbing the three-colored fire lotus.
“Rumble…”
The fire lotus exploded with a sound like ten thousand war drums beating in unison, shaking heaven and earth, its power incredibly astonishing.
However, even with such a terrifying explosion, not a single trace of energy escaped from that large hand.
“Great Emperor!”
In the distance, Elder Qian and Elder Wan, the guardians of Celestial Immortal Academy, saw the large hand that stopped the fire lotus explosion, and their expressions drastically changed.
Could it be that the Sea of Laws was receding so quickly?
Otherwise, how could a Great Emperor descend to the Lower Realm?
Buzz!
As the flame energy dissipated, the large hand also slowly vanished.
Finally, it transformed into a plain-robed Old Man who appeared before everyone's eyes.
“Greetings, Old Ancestor’s Spirit Body!”
The moment Lei Zhenzi saw the Old Man, he quickly stepped forward and greeted him respectfully.
Facing Lei Zhenzi's bow, the plain-robed Old Man merely nodded slightly, then his gaze swept over everyone present, finally settling on Nangong Xueli.
A thoughtful look appeared in his deep eyes.
Several days ago.
Ji Bai, a descendant of Emperor Anlan, was killed by a Prodigy of the same generation in the Lower Realm.
This incident caused a huge stir in the Upper Realm.
This was because Ji Bai was a born Supreme, and his strength was extremely extraordinary.
Ji Bai, who possessed the Supreme Bone, was a well-known existence among the Prodigies of the Upper Realm.
Now, his descendant, Lei Zhenzi, who was born with a lightning Divine Ability, was defeated by a Prodigy from the Lower Realm.
To save his life, he even used the life-saving item he had bestowed.
This truly made people feel somewhat incredible.
Before this, the Lower Realm had always been regarded as a barren land.
Unable to produce true peerless Prodigies!
Because of this, people from the Upper Realm all regarded Martial Artists from the Lower Realm as natives.
Every time someone descended to the Lower Realm, they did so with a condescending attitude.
But since when did this Lower Realm become so rich in talent?
The Prodigies born in the Lower Realm could actually casually pin down the young Supremes of the Upper Realm and rub them on the ground.
The plain-robed Old Man stared at Nangong Xueli again and again, but found nothing special about her. He could only suppress the doubts in his heart for now and turn to look at Lei Zhenzi.
“Where is the main body of the Nine Tribulation Immortal Spirit Tower?”
“Replying to Old Ancestor, the Immortal Tower is in her hands,” Lei Zhenzi said, pointing at Nangong Xueli.
Hearing Lei Zhenzi's words, the plain-robed Old Man nodded slightly, then looked at the Red-Robed Old Man not far away and said in a deep voice, “Blood Servant, what are you waiting for? Hurry and retrieve the main body of the tower!”
As his voice fell, the plain-robed Old Man waved his hand and sent out a white light.
Pfft!
After piercing through layers of Void Realm, the white light shot directly into the Red-Robed Old Man's body.
Boom!
The moment the white light entered his body, the Red-Robed Old Man's aura suddenly surged again, and his strength seemed to have doubled in an instant!
“Thank you for Master's grace!”
Feeling the power of authority growing within him again, the Blood Servant gratefully bowed to the plain-robed Old Man.
Then, the Blood Servant stared fiercely at Elder Qian and Elder Wan, revealing a sinister smile.
“I’ve played with you two for so long, it’s time to send you both on your way!”
As his voice fell, the Blood Servant fully activated the Great Emperor's authority he had just obtained, pouring it into his fists and striking out fiercely.
Boom!
With one punch, heaven and earth shattered, and tens of thousands of miles of Void Realm were shattered by the Blood Servant's punch, with Chaos Qi surging out overwhelmingly.
In the pervasive Chaos mist, people could only vaguely see two clusters of blood mist floating within.
After that, the auras of Elder Qian and Elder Wan completely vanished, as if they had been terrifyingly devoured by the mist.
“Elder Qian!”
“Elder Wan!”
Looking at the two Academy guardians who had died tragically before their eyes, everyone from the Academy wore expressions of grief.
Nangong Xueli, seeing this, also felt her pupils tremble slightly.
After the Blood Servant received the power bestowed by the plain-robed Old Man, his strength instantly surged by several levels.
He was practically like a true Great Emperor!
This caused Elder Qian and Elder Wan to be instantly killed in a single blow, turning into two clusters of blood mist, caught off guard.
Even she didn't react in time.
“With the Sea of Laws suppressing him, although this Lei Family Old Ancestor's spirit body has manifested in the Lower Realm, he cannot act freely. That's why he lent his power to that Red-Robed Old Man who had signed a Master-servant contract with him.”
“Now, that Red-Robed Old Man is probably already infinitely close to the power of a Great Emperor…”
Just as everyone was grieving the fall of the Academy guardians, Yao Mu was also analyzing the current situation for Nangong Xueli.
The current situation was very unfavorable for them.
A Great Emperor's spirit body had manifested, temporarily lending power to his contracted servant, causing the latter's strength to surge.
Directly approaching a true Great Emperor!
Hearing Yao Mu's analysis, Nangong Xueli frowned imperceptibly.
In her current predicament, she alone was already unable to change the situation.
Even if she were given another spirit fire now, allowing her to have a chance to fuse a four-colored fire lotus.
But trying to defeat a Great Emperor was simply impossible.
“Nangong Xueli, quick, go! Immediately leave here with the Nine Tribulation Immortal Spirit Tower!”
Just then, Dean Jiang and others swiftly arrived, protecting Nangong Xueli behind them.
“Haha, an ant trying to stop a chariot, a mayfly trying to shake a tree!”
Seeing Dean Jiang and others blocking in front of Nangong Xueli, with expressions of readiness to die, the Blood Servant immediately revealed a sneer of disdain.
“A bunch of overestimating ants from the Lower Realm, you simply don't understand how powerful the Great Emperor's power truly is!”
“Even if there were ten times more of you, not a single one of you will leave alive today!”
Boom!
As his laughter faded, the Blood Servant, intoxicated by the power bestowed upon him by the plain-robed Old Man, had already punched out.
In an instant, heaven and earth shattered, tens of thousands of miles of Void Realm broke apart, Chaos Qi surged, and terrifying spatial cracks densely extended for an unknown distance, continuing to stretch until they disappeared at the end of their sight.
“Puff, puff, puff!”
In an instant, Dean Jiang, Qian Jin, and other Academy powerhouses were like Elder Qian and Elder Wan before them.
In a chaotic mist, they exploded into clusters of blood mist, floating before Nangong Xueli's eyes.
“Quickly go to the Holy Emperor Sect and ask your fiancé, Lin Yang, for help!”
Before his death, Dean Jiang shouted out this final instruction.
“Dean!!”
Watching the elders of the Academy explode into clusters of blood mist one by one before her eyes, Nangong Xueli's pupils trembled violently, and her heart was instantly filled with anger.
“Master, please lend me a hand!”
Nangong Xueli clenched her delicate fists, requesting this in her heart.
She knew that with her current strength alone, she couldn't accomplish anything.
To avenge the Academy elders who had tragically died before her, she first needed Yao Mu's permission.
Only by borrowing Yao Mu's power could she seek justice today for the fallen Academy guardians, Dean, and others!
“Alas, so be it, these people from the Upper Realm are indeed a bit too excessive in their actions…”
Hearing Nangong Xueli's request, Yao Mu pondered for a moment, then also nodded slightly.
Buzz!
In the sky, under the gaze of Lei Zhenzi and others on the opposite side, Nangong Xueli not only did not turn to flee but instead calmly and slowly closed her eyes.
In the darkness, an incomparable and vast power was gradually surging within Nangong Xueli like a tide.
A moment later, Nangong Xueli suddenly opened her eyes.
Her clear eyes, originally as dark and bright as stars, were now one purple and one red, extremely eerie…
