173: Chapter 173 A Wonder of the Immortal Realm: The Entire Garden Relocated!
Li Xuan finally stopped looking at the new Immortal Maidens and shifted his gaze to Arhat Fatian, who was still kneeling on the ground, not daring to lift his head.
This Grand Unity Golden Immortal from the West Heaven was now covered in blood, his golden body riddled with cracks, and his Qi was nearly extinguished.
The string of Immortal King Buddhist treasures he wore had also dimmed, its spirituality gone, making it inferior to even an ordinary Golden Immortal Magical Artifact.
As for the tens of thousands of monks behind him, nine out of ten had been knocked unconscious by that single shout of "Kneel," their Dao Hearts shattered.
The remaining ones were like idiots.
This army of monks, which had come charging over in a rage, had been completely wiped out.
"Hea... Heavenly Emperor, spare me..."
Arhat Fatian felt Li Xuan looking at him and, using every ounce of his strength, squeezed these few words out from his throat.
He only wanted to live now, no matter the cost.
Li Xuan's face was expressionless, and he had retracted his Immortal King pressure, but the sense of indifference about him—as if nothing in the world concerned him—was even more terrifying than the pressure.
"Your death sentence is commuted."
Li Xuan said, "However, you cannot escape punishment while living."
Arhat Fatian's heart skipped a beat, and before he could react, he felt an invisible giant hand reach into his mind.
This hand ignored all his Divine Soul defenses and his Grand Unity Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, effortlessly plucking something from his life-bound Buddhist treasure that he had nurtured for who knows how many years.
It was a golden Bodhi seed, formed entirely from pure Buddhist teachings and Dao Laws.
This was the essence of Arhat Fatian's Dao Fruit, his trump card for reaching the Immortal King Realm in the future, and the root of all his cultivation!
"No!"
Arhat Fatian let out a desperate roar, only able to watch as that golden Bodhi seed was forcibly extracted from his body and dropped into Li Xuan's hand.
This feeling was ten thousand times more painful than simply killing him!
"You..."
Arhat Fatian's eyes were splitting, his teeth clenched tightly.
Li Xuan twirled the Bodhi seed, which was filled with pure energy, between his fingertips, feeling the majestic Dao power within, and nodded with satisfaction.
It would be good for deducing Formations or as a snack for the kids.
He glanced at Arhat Fatian, too lazy to look at him any longer.
"You smashed up my backyard, scared my child, and even tried to steal my peach tree. Let this Bodhi seed serve as compensation for your emotional damages."
"Also," Li Xuan pointed at the tens of thousands of monks who had fainted on the ground, "take them away; don't dirty my place."
"Finally, go back and tell the master of that so-called Ten Thousand Buddhas Holy Land that my patience is limited."
"If there is a next time, I wouldn't mind taking a trip to your West Heaven."
Having said that, Li Xuan waved his hand casually.
A gentle yet irresistible force swept up Arhat Fatian and the tens of thousands of Buddhist Disciples, "throwing" them directly out of the Yaochi Ruins and into the pitch-black Void Realm.
With that, the entire Yaochi Ruins was finally peaceful.
Having driven away these flies, Li Xuan's mood improved significantly.
He turned around and smiled as he looked at the old Peach Garden that had just been purified and brought back to life.
Especially the pantao mother tree; after the black dagger was removed, and with the nourishment from Li Yao's Light of Creation and the faith of the Heavenly Court's Immortal Maidens, many green leaves had actually sprouted on its trunk, which had previously been on the verge of death.
A feeling of joy and closeness was transmitted to Li Xuan.
Ao Qingxue, holding the sleeping Li Yao, flew over with Li Qingyue.
Looking at this fairyland that looked brand new, even Ao Qingxue, the Dragon Clan princess, was dumbfounded.
"Husband, are we... are we just going to occupy this place? Should we open a branch Sect here too?"
She asked cautiously.
This place was too far from the Southern Heaven Gate, with the entire Star-Fall Sea in between, making it difficult to manage.
Li Xuan shook his head.
"A branch Sect? Your perspective is too small."
He stood with his hands behind his back, possessing a certain air of someone directing the fate of the world.
"Why leave people here to guard it?"
"Why not just pack it up and take it with us?"
"Huh?"
Ao Qingxue's mouth slowly opened wide, and she couldn't close it for a long time.
Pack up... and take it away?
This is a continent!
Even though it was broken, the central Peach Garden, along with the Spiritual Veins beneath it and countless Immortal soil, added up to the size of a small star.
How do you pack this? What do you use to pack it?
"Yay! Moving time!"
On the contrary, Li Qingyue's cold eyes were filled with light of excitement.
She completely understood her father's idea.
Running so far to pick peaches was too much trouble; it would be better to just move the peach trees back to their own courtyard, so they could pick them whenever they wanted to eat!
Seeing his daughter's "I get you" expression, Li Xuan smiled with satisfaction.
"Qingyue understands me best."
He patted his chest.
"Watch closely; today I'll open your eyes and let you see what is called..."
"The romance of a Infrastructure Maniac!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xuan's will moved.
The zhou tian star boat, which was hovering above the ruins, let out a boom and suddenly grew in size!
Ten thousand zhang! A million zhang! Ten million zhang!
Finally, it turned into a behemoth that could cover the stars, a Divine Kingdom floating in the Universe!
This wasn't the end.
Li Xuan took a step and arrived on top of the zhou tian star boat.
This time, he wasn't using the power of an Immortal King Experience Card, but his own genuine Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation!
"zhou tian star boat, open a Cave Heaven!"
He shouted, and below the massive zhou tian star boat, a huge spatial vortex slowly opened. Inside the vortex was a Small World he had opened up using his own Chaos world as a foundation.
This time, he stretched the opening of this Small World to its maximum!
"Rise!"
Li Xuan pressed his hands into the Void Realm towards the Peach Garden below.
The power of his Hongmeng Chaos Body erupted completely, without holding anything back!
Beneath his feet, the ocean of Laws was boiling.
Space, Earth, Five Elements, and Heaven and Earth...
Countless Dao chains extended from his body, turning into invisible giant hands that reached precisely beneath the Peach Garden.
"Rumble..."
The entire Yaochi Ruins began to shake violently.
A Qiong, who had just become the supervisor of the Immortal Maidens, and those tens of thousands of Immortal Maidens, all stared at Li Xuan in the sky, dumbfounded with fear.
They didn't feel any malice, only an indescribable, majestic power that enveloped every inch of the land and every Spiritual Vein beneath their feet, as if even their lives had been grasped along with it.
"Rise... for me!"
Li Xuan let out a low shout, and his Divine Power poured out!
A wonder unprecedented in the history of the Immortal Realm was now unfolding.
The entire Peach Garden, that complete landmass as large as a floating Immortal island, along with the millions of zhang of fertile soil and various Spiritual Veins beneath it, was actually being forcibly uprooted from the Yaochi Ruins plate by an irresistible, great power!
"Crack... crack..."
The earth cracked, the sound shaking the heavens.
Countless broken rocks fell from the edges of the "floating island" that had been lifted up, falling into the bottomless abyss below.
The floating Peach Garden continent, controlled by Li Xuan, slowly, bit by bit, flew towards the large spatial vortex beneath the zhou tian star boat.
Finally, with a violent fluctuation of space, the entire Peach Garden was completely and perfectly "packed" into the Small World of the zhou tian star boat.
After finishing this, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Li Xuan's forehead.
Using Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation to do the work of moving mountains and filling seas, which only an Immortal King could do, was a bit strenuous.
But seeing the peach blossom fairyland, filled with Immortal Qi, that had suddenly appeared inside the zhou tian star boat, he felt it was all worth it.
The zhou tian star boat returned to its normal size, and Li Xuan took his family back onto the ship.
"Work done, let's go home!"
With the order given, the Star Boat silently merged into the Void Realm, dragging the entire newly acquired "world" with it as it sailed towards the Southern Heaven Gate.
But Li Xuan did not know.
His unprecedented "moving" feat had already been seen clearly by many eyes.
Immortal Realm, Yuhua Immortal Dynasty, Sky-Viewing Terrace.
Yuhua Immortal Lord and a group of ministers stared dumbfounded at the large ship dragging a continent through the sea of stars in the treasure mirror; the teacup in his hand fell with a "clatter" and shattered into pieces.
"He... he moved the Yaochi Ruins away?"
An old minister at the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm asked, stuttering.
Yuhua Immortal Lord swallowed hard:
"To be precise, he moved the most valuable part... Just what kind of Immortal is this Li Yao?"
Immortal Realm, an unnamed Loose Immortal's Immortal Cave.
An Old Ancestor who was in seclusion trying to break through the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Bottleneck was awakened by his Disciple. Seeing the scene in the mirror, he felt his Dao Heart shake violently, his vision went black, and he nearly suffered from Qi Deviation.
"I have cultivated for a million years, and moving mountains and filling seas is the limit of my ability. This man... can actually move a continent? A madman! He really is a madman!"
Immortal Realm, various major Sects and ancient families in the East...
Soon, a nickname that was both funny and frightening began to spread secretly among these top forces in the Immortal Realm.
"Hey, have you heard? That ruthless new guy who popped up at the Southern Heaven Gate punched the Ten Thousand Buddhas Holy Land and packed up the entire Peach Garden to take home!"
"Holy crap, for real? That badass?"
"Of course it's real! It's said that wherever he goes, he scrapes three feet of soil off the ground! People have nicknamed him the 'Infrastructure Maniac' of the Immortal Realm!"
