Chapter 285: Fearless Mortal

“You’re finally willing to speak. Do you dare to tell me your name? Coward, what nonsense are you talking about? I don’t need you to educate me!” Yi Xie roared.

However, right at this moment, the impassioned voice echoed again. “Don’t give up until the last moment. Regardless of the outcome… do your best!”

The voice repeated itself. Then it repeated itself a second time, a third, a fourth. It echoed through the endless darkness.

Li Yu recorded the positive energy quotes from the 21st century into the sound of the Great Dao, and it was played in the Pagoda Tower 24 hours a day.

He felt that this might help the Essence Soul cleanse its soul and purify the negative energy.

This motivational speech for the soul was still effective in his previous life.

‘If it doesn’t work, I’ll try another wave of toxic motivation and fight poison with poison!’

…

At the foot of the Qingyun Sect mountain, a middle-aged man in simple clothes and an ordinary face carrying a luggage bag walked over from afar.

No one knew that this ordinary middle-aged man, who would be drowned if he walked into a crowd, was the high and mighty Thunder Realm Master—Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming.

At the moment, Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming had already completely concealed his aura and magic power and changed his appearance, making him seem like an ordinary person. Unless one’s cultivation realm far exceeded his, it was difficult to discover his true identity.

After Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming arrived in the Jingxing Realm yesterday, he appeared near the Great Zenith Domain’s Ruohe City. There, he underwent a disguise and became like this, preparing to begin his secluded life in the city.

However, before that, he still wanted to take a look at the Qingyun Sect to satisfy his curiosity.

Furthermore, he had heard many legends about the Qingyun Sect and Li Yu in Ruohe City.

He finally understood what that door meant. The answer was so simple that he did not know whether to laugh or cry. However, it also made him more curious about the Qingyun Sect and Li Yu.

It was tens of thousands of kilometers away from Ruohe City and the Qingyun Sect, but it was not far for him.

Even the immortal realms with stronger power and higher world laws could be reached in less than half a day.

Not to mention that the lower realm, where the power of heaven and earth was weak, could be reached in the blink of an eye.

However, on the principle of hiding in the city and returning to the basics, he decided to head to the Qingyun Sect as a mortal.

This way, he could comprehend the mortal world as he walked, experiencing the mortal world and comprehending the Great Dao.

However, Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming had just changed his identity and role. He was not used to it, so he accidentally traveled tens of thousands of kilometers in one go.

He walked directly from the Great Zenith Domain’s Ruohe City to the Great Xia Dynasty. Sparks flew from the soles of his shoes. He arrived at the foot of the Qingyun Sect in less than 24 hours.

“Sigh, looks like returning to the mortal world is a technical job!” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly.

It was like a big eater who could eat two catties of rice every meal suddenly starting to only eat 100 grains of rice per meal. Furthermore, he could only eat one grain per bite, and he had to chew more than 100 times for each grain.

One could imagine how difficult this was.

‘Let’s take it slow. Cultivator Li probably took a long time to truly integrate into this lower realm, right?’

He looked at the mountain shrouded in fog and exclaimed in his mind. This place was indeed extraordinary. Perhaps it was only an ordinary cloud in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, in his eyes, it was the Protective Mountain Array, and its grade was not low. Most importantly, the power of heaven and earth and various energies flowing in the array were extremely powerful.

There were probably not many such grand arrays in the Immortal Realm.

“There’s a mountain village more than five kilometers away from here. Why don’t I settle down there first and slowly adapt to the life of a mortal? Once I return to the basics and integrate into this world, I might be able to truly comprehend a higher realm.”

‘I’ll definitely have the chance to come into contact with Cultivator Li in the future. Perhaps I can discuss the path of cultivation with him then’, Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming thought.

However, right at this moment, powerful auras suddenly descended. They were eight Saints, two Great Saints, and a Saint King.

“This is the place?” The old man in the lead asked coldly. He was one of the two Saint Kings of the Qin family in the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm, Qin Zheng.

Beside him was the City Lord of the Phoenix Cry Ancient City, Xie Fengchen.

When the news of Qin Tianhuang’s capture reached the Qin family, it infuriated them, especially when the other party actually extorted them to use the Sons of Destiny as an exchange.

As the top ancient family in the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm, how could the Qin family tolerate this?

Furthermore, the Qin family had always been overbearing. If anyone dared to trample on the Qin family’s dignity, they would make the other party pay the price.

Furthermore, the other party was a faction from the lower realm. Even if there were many extraordinary people, they had obtained the Heavenly Dao’s reward and possessed some strength.

However, it was still not enough for them to challenge the Qin family.

Therefore, the Qin family had sent out a lineup of experts that could easily destroy a high-level faction in the Immortal Realm to the lower realm to seek revenge.

Of course, there was another reason for them to mobilize such a large force.

On the one hand, they were tempted by the extraordinary bloodlines and physiques of the Qingyun Sect.

On the other hand, they vaguely heard that not long ago, the Ye family and the Gongshu family seemed to have sent people to the Star Field, but they returned in defeat.

That was why the Qin family had sent out such a high-level lineup this time. Even the Saint King Patriarch had been mobilized. They wanted to take down the Qingyun Sect before the Gongshu family and the Ye family sent more powerful people down to the lower realm.

After they arrived in the Jingxing Realm, they captured the City Lord of the Phoenix Cry Ancient City and asked him to lead the way to the Qingyun Sect.

“That’s right! Everyone, please think carefully. Offending the Qingyun Sect is not a wise move. Please think twice before you act!” Xie Fengchen advised earnestly.

Although he was facing peerless experts who existed in legends, he was not afraid at all.

After all, it was hard to find water in the vast sea. After seeing Li Yu’s extraordinary power, it was as if all extraordinary people seemed ordinary.

“Hmph, you’re a frog in a well. Do you know who this person is? A Saint King who can destroy your star realm with a wave of his hand is probably an expert you’ve never seen in your life!” A Saint Realm expert from the Qin family mocked.

In their opinion, these people from the lower realm were frogs in a well. They thought that the Qingyun Sect was the strongest faction in the world, and that Li Yu was invincible after he entered the Physique and Bloodline Rankings.

Who knew that there was always someone better?!

“That’s right. You should have advised Li Yu back then that if he dared to offend our Qin family, he was courting death!” Another Qin family member said.

“Sigh… Another reckless family clan from the Immortal Realm!” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming could not help but sigh.

He knew about the Qin family. Like the Ye family, they were also a primordial family in the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm. Furthermore, they were now even more powerful than the Ye family.

However, that might not be the case after today.

Although Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming’s voice was not loud, it entered the ears of everyone in the Qin family clearly. It immediately attracted furious glares that were as cold as blades that locked onto him.

“Ignorant mortal, you’re courting death!” A Qin family Saint waved his hand, and terrifying magic power instantly tore through the void and flashed towards Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming.
