105: Chapter 105 The Heavenly Dao

"So what if it's you? What can you do against the Heavenly Dao?" The Demon God suddenly burst into laughter.

He acted completely dismissive of Xia Lingling, but sadly, his coolness didn't last more than three seconds...

He was instantly stomped to the ground by Xia Lingling and ground into the dirt.

"What was that you just said? I didn't hear it clearly. Could you repeat it?" Xia Lingling asked, completely unconcerned.

"This Heavenly Dao again... Could it be related to the arrival of the Global Survival Game?" Mu Cheng thought to himself.

This truly made him suspicious. First, Peppa had said in Ning City that the arrival of the person from above was arranged by the Heavenly Dao.

And now this... Naturally, one could make the connection.

"No, that's impossible, absolutely impossible. With your current strength... impossible... absolutely impossible." The Demon God was questioning his entire existence.

Xia Lingling smiled slightly and said, "I'll give you a chance. How about you challenge two people? If you win, I'll let you go. If you lose, you die!"

Without even waiting for the Demon God to react, she had already vanished, and a woman flew over.

This woman wore ancient-style cyan clothing... She seemed timid and hesitant, looking every bit like a weak woman.

"Well, well, Eighth Sister... You've been here all along and couldn't be bothered to intervene." Ren Xiaoxiao complained right away.

Gu Na recognized her immediately. "She's... Su Qingyan, the City Lord of Guangshen."

But on second thought, it made sense. With such a commotion, it would indeed be strange if the City Lord didn't show up.

"I was just about to intervene, wasn't I? Besides, it's not too late to act now." Su Qingyan approached and gave her a big hug.

It was clear the two sisters shared a deep bond and... hadn't seen each other for quite some time.

"Alright, alright, Sister Qingyan, Sister Xiao Xiao, come on, let Lingling see what you're made of." Xia Lingling suddenly appeared between them... and separated the two.

"Mhm, let's deal with him first!" Su Qingyan suddenly became extremely serious.

At this moment, she was no longer that timid, gentle lady, but had completely transformed into someone else.

She became a very cold person. If looks could kill... the Demon God would have died thousands of times over.

"All this fighting back and forth is too troublesome. Let's decide the outcome with a single move!" Xia Lingling had no patience to wait.

Of course, the main reason was... she couldn't wait.

"Fine, fine, fine. Then let's decide it with one move!" As soon as Ren Xiaoxiao finished speaking... a red silk ribbon appeared in her right hand.

It floated and circled around her. Su Qingyan did the same, except her silk ribbon was transparent.

"Divine artifacts? What are they planning?" Mu Cheng was particularly curious.

Even if they were divine artifacts... the Demon God also had a demonic weapon. Clearly, their advantage wouldn't be that great.

Even Gu Na wasn't sure. "They should be divine artifacts, right? But they feel... very unusual."

"Wrong. Those are the super divine artifacts, Ice-Fire Silks, their strongest attack. You'll see soon." Peppa explained.

"Interesting. Then I'll play with you properly." Knowing he couldn't escape, the Demon God decided to go all out.

"Come on! Try our combined attack technique." In an instant, Su Qingyan had already appeared behind the Demon God.

Ren Xiaoxiao did the same, appearing directly in front of him. The two began releasing terrifying energy.

One was the ultimate ice, the other the ultimate fire...

"Damn it, this is actually a divine technique! Until we meet again!" The Demon God knew he was no match.

Foreseeing this, he chose to flee...

"Then you can rest in peace." Xia Lingling, of course, wouldn't let him leave.

In a flash, she had already kicked the Demon God down from high in the sky.

"Watch closely, little one. I'll teach you a move today!" As Xia Lingling spoke, she gathered golden energy in her hands.

Soon, she condensed the surrounding energy. A massive flower with nine petals formed at a speed visible to the naked eye, shining like a blazing sun... illuminating the entire forest.

"She actually possesses the Bloodline of the Goddess of Life too." Gu Na was greatly shocked.

"Learn this well. The key to this move lies in borrowing from the Source of Life." Peppa slowly began to explain.

"So that's it. The Source of Life originates from all things. I understand." Gu Na suddenly realized.

"Good that you understand. The Goddess of Life controls life. She can save everything, and of course, she can also destroy everything." Peppa spoke again.

"No, no, no! You can't kill me!" The Demon God was utterly panicked, even now unable to accept this reality.

"Can't kill you? How laughable. So what if it's the Heavenly Dao? I, Xia Lingling, will cut it down." Xia Lingling showed no mercy.

She raised her right hand. "Flower of Death, bloom!"

The nine petals behind her... descended from the sky, rushing toward the Demon God. There was no violent explosion.

Nor was there any energy fluctuation, nor any damage to a single blade of grass or tree... yet the Demon God had completely vanished without a trace.

"Such a terrifying move. Is it over just like that?" Mu Cheng clearly hadn't processed it yet.

Peppa: "It's not over yet. The Heavenly Dao is here."

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the sky high above cracked open, revealing a figure identical to Xia Lingling.

It emerged... with no energy fluctuation, not a single wasted word, instantly transforming into an energy form that shot down from the sky toward Xia Lingling.

"What was bound to come has come. I'll go meet this Heavenly Dao." Xia Lingling also had no way out.

Transforming into a stream of golden energy, she quickly collided with the phantom figure...

"This battle feels... so ordinary. It doesn't look like a fight between beings beyond the Ninth Order at all." Tao Mumu was dumbfounded.

Just moments ago, Xia Lingling's strength was overwhelmingly powerful, yet now it seemed so ordinary... completely unlike someone beyond the Ninth Order.

"What you see is only the surface. Lingling has long since surpassed the Ninth Order, so naturally, she wouldn't use her full strength." Su Qingyan suddenly explained.

Peppa also spoke up. "Mhm, that's right. With that girl Lingling's strength at the Great High Priest level, she's probably not even using one ten-thousandth of her power. Of course, the same goes for the Heavenly Dao."

"Great High Priest? It seems this is the realm classification after surpassing the Ninth Order." Mu Cheng thought for a moment and guessed.

Tao Shuishui became very curious at this point. "What level of existence is this Great High Priest?"

"That's too far off for you all. You'll understand when you reach the battlefield. The Ninth Order is merely the beginning. Above the Ninth Order, there are the Realm King God, Outer God, Great High Priest, and the universe's highest ruler, the Omni-God." Ren Xiaoxiao explained.

The situation on the battlefield was very complex. Although her own strength was only at the peak of the Eighth Order, she was very clear about the power classifications.

"Above the Ninth Order... can one truly become a god?" Tao Mumu asked as if she had discovered a New Continent.

"That... shouldn't be, right? If that were truly the case, humanity would probably have perished long ago." Mu Cheng felt more and more that something was off the more he thought about it.

But he quickly realized. "If I guess correctly... it's all because of the Heavenly Dao, isn't it?"

"Mhm, so even though Lingling has the strength to defeat the Heavenly Dao, now is not the time. She can only stall for now." Su Qingyan nodded in response.
