As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1503 - 402: The Nine Nether Gate Opens—Living Buddha Turns into Black Buddha, the Eighth Qi Gate Targets a Total Massacre [Monthly Ticket Requested]...
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
A sudden wave of intense dread washed over Bai Buxi.
In an instant, his Vast Righteous Qi Column shattered into nothingness. Fang Hanshu moved with such speed it appeared as though he had teleported, manifesting directly in front of his foe. The violent winds whipped his elegant beard like a lash, striking against Bai Buxi’s skin!
Countless pages ascended with a sharp rustling, circling through the air to blockade every possible path of retreat for Bai Buxi!
"Die!"
The Vast Righteous River positioned behind Fang Hanshu descended like a crashing waterfall.
Wielding a power equivalent to the aura of the Half-step Divine Tribulation Realm, the Vast Righteous River obliterated Bai Buxi’s Vast Righteous Qi Column and began to scour his physical form!
It felt as though Bai Buxi was being struck by thousands of relentless rods.
Within a single moment, he was completely soaked in blood.
After just a few breaths, Bai Buxi’s clothes crumbled into dust, leaving his skin a terrifying mess of scars and wounds.
A few more breaths passed, and Bai Buxi began coughing up blood as the Vast Righteous River washed away his flesh, revealing the ghastly white of his skeleton.
Ultimately, even his bones were pulverized, detonating into a cloud of bone powder that scattered into the wind.
Bai Buxi, a Sect Master of the Great Divine level from the Haoran Academy, was annihilated by the cleansing force of the Vast Righteous River!
Fang Hanshu remained suspended in the sky, the Vast Righteous River winding behind him like a majestic white Divine Dragon!
A suffocating and terrifying pressure rippled across the darkness of the night!
The world fell into a deathly silence!
Pure shock took hold!
Yet another top-tier Great God had been slain!
Above Qianyuan Dao City, the mood shifted to one of intense passion as endless cheers erupted!
The Divine Guard Army, who had been suppressed by the overwhelming power of the Imperial Court’s siege experts, were now filled with a burning battle intent!
They yearned to storm out of the city gates and join the fray!
The tide of the battle had shifted entirely!
The Seven Treasures Divine Sect Master Ning Caisen, the Sichuan Sword Pavilion Sect Master Gu Cheng, and the Dragon Tiger Divine Sect’s Zhao Chunqiu all watched on, their expressions twisting in alarm!
How was this possible?!
Both Gu Changqing and Bai Buxi were dead!
This expedition was meant to dismantle the Sect; how had it spiraled into this disaster?!
Ji Moli, currently locked in a struggle with Lv Taibai, knit his brows slightly.
"Fang Hanshu... he actually grasped the Vast Righteous River, reaching the Half-step Divine Tribulation level. He has achieved divinity through the Confucian path!"
Ji Moli was stunned; he hadn't realized Fang Hanshu had been concealing his true depth so well.
No one had any idea that Fang Hanshu had ascended to the Half-step Divine Tribulation. This Vast Righteous River power was easily on par with the strength of the Three Calamities—a unique path to enlightenment in the mortal realm!
The Three Calamities Method was the standard divine cultivation technique used to break into the Divine Tribulation Realm.
However, those following the martial path or the Confucian path to reach the God Realm were not strictly bound to the Three Calamities Method!
"The situation... is going south!"
Ji Moli grasped his umbrella gun horizontally and swung it with ferocity. His terrifying Qi-blood, infused with the power of Netherworld Fire, scorched the air until the void twisted and fine cracks began to form!
This strike neutralized the Destructive God Wind Sword Qi launched by Lv Taibai!
Ji Moli seemed to sense a looming danger.
Amidst the clattering of his armor, an overwhelming killing intent flared as he charged even more violently toward Lv Taibai!
...
...
"Fang Hanshu... he really was hiding his true cultivation!
This Third Place scholar, the top talent of Jiangnan Dao, has indeed mastered the Vast Righteous River! He has gained the foundation required to enter the Divine Tribulation Realm!"
Aboard the Mystic Iron Spirit Wood Warship.
Xie Yushen’s feather fan suddenly stopped moving. His eyes narrowed, fixated on the enormous white river pouring from the heavens, radiating a grand and majestic righteousness.
In the Haoran Academy of Jiangnan Dao...
Almost a millennium had passed since anyone last comprehended the Vast Righteous River!
Because the Haoran Academy ruled over Jiangnan Dao, it attracted countless scholars. The entire region was cluttered with these intellectuals; fortunately, they were mostly bookish, or Jiangnan Dao would have revolted ages ago.
Still, the common folk of Jiangnan Dao suffered the most, burdened by heavy labor and taxes that left them even more impoverished than those in Tongyou Dao!
"Something isn't right."
Xie Yushen’s gaze sharpened.
He turned his attention toward Mo City Fengdu, which loomed in the night sky.
While Fang Hanshu’s sudden display of power was within Xie Yushen’s calculations, and he had prepared a countermeasure.
That counter was Grandmaster Huang Mei.
Xie Yushen suspected that Grandmaster Huang Mei had also reached the Half-step Divine Tribulation by mastering the Three Calamities, only choosing to keep it hidden.
Thus, if Huang Mei unleashed his full power, the battle could still be turned!
However, the Underworld Yama was somehow holding back two of the Imperial Court’s strongest powerhouses all by himself!
This was a variable Xie Yushen had failed to foresee.
Beside him.
The sword guard Ning An was drenched in a cold sweat, paralyzed by terror.
This was because the Underworld Horse Face kept training his mechanism directly on them.
He didn't fire; he simply maintained the threat.
While Xie Yushen remained composed, his guard—who only possessed the strength of a Three Flowers Grandmaster—couldn't endure such pressure.
His legs were on the verge of collapsing!
But...
Why didn't Horse Face pull the trigger?!
Why wait?!
What exactly was he stalling for?!
...
...
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish——
Mo City, Fengdu!
Rain hammered down, a terrifying deluge washing over the city as a murderous intent soared toward the heavens!
Boom——!!!
After the disorientation of the Heavenly Defect and Earth Defect, they were warped into the city. The two elders managed to stabilize their minds almost instantly.
The phantom of a Half-step Martial God manifested, and a colossal Demon Elephant’s Hoof came crashing down!
All of Mo City trembled. The raindrops seemed to freeze in mid-air, suspended by the terrifying aura and the raging, scouring killing intent!
Buzz——!!!
Grandmaster Huang Mei’s form was also teleported into the fray.
