Chapter 604: Blood and Bone Prologue

“Strange, there is no spiritual energy on Kunlun Mountain, how come there are so many rare materials?”

In an unknown ravine on Kunlun Mountain, Li Zhi, who had just dug out the Yellow Spring Stone from under a dry riverbed, felt a little doubtful.

Yellow Spring Stone is a dark stone born in the Yellow Spring River. It contains a trace of reincarnation power and is an auxiliary material for practicing the reincarnation seal method. It can greatly shorten the time it takes for a cultivator’s body to form a reincarnation seal after death.

However, the Kunlun at this time was not the same place as the Kunlun in the Holy Ruins era, and there was no Yellow Springs Road running through this place.

Then, Li Zhi laid out all the rare minerals he had dug out in the past few days and found that they could not be produced in the same place at the same time.

“Could it be that Kunlun is the source of mineral treasures specially left by the ruthless emperor?”

But after thinking about it carefully, Li Zhi shook off the thought in his mind. As the only one who was promoted to the level of Ji Dao besides the three Heavenly Emperors, Emperor Henren should not be so bored.

Moreover, the ruthless emperor is also the one who is least affected by the patient.

When she died in battle, her brother, created by her obsession, died with her.

The reason he was able to return from Nirvana was not only due to his own practice, but also because of the soul-calling work of Ye Fan and others.

Although his Taoism is not as good as the three Heavenly Emperors, the difference is not much.

However, Li Changshou was still quite happy that there were such a wealth of precious materials buried under Kunlun Mountain.

Those materials could save him decades of practice time.

Any special material contains the simple origin of heaven and earth.

Just like the nine kinds of immortal gold possess the mysteries of immortal gold.

There are also corresponding laws of the Tao in minerals such as Hunyuan Stone and Tianming Stone.

The evolutionary method that Li Zhi practiced was able to extract the original Dao traces from a variety of ores.

Above the Divine Altar realm is the Divine Pattern realm, which requires one to comprehend all kinds of innate Dao patterns between heaven and earth, and then engrave them on the Divine Altar to increase Dao veins for the Divine Altar.

Li Zhi originally thought that Jueling’s Earth would not have all kinds of natural treasures, but now it seems that his previous judgment was wrong.

Although the earth is not spiritual, the laws of the universe are complete and will naturally give birth to some shortcuts.

However, without the nourishment of spiritual energy, the materials of those things are not outstanding and are not much different from ordinary ores.

If Li Zhi had not built the divine platform and possessed the ability to sense the traces of the earth, he would probably not have been able to discover those minerals.

Just as Li Changshou was about to go to the next place to look for shortcut materials, he suddenly found a few black spots flying towards him at the end of the sky.

The black dot flew at an extremely fast speed and arrived in front of Li Changshou in a breath.

Only then did Li Changshou see their appearance clearly. They were actually six hypersonic air-to-ground missiles.

“boom!”

The missile exploded dozens of meters away from Li Zhi.

The huge air wave pushed thousands of shrapnel towards him.

“Ding-dong!”

In an instant, a layer of khaki light appeared on Li Changshou’s body, and it turned into a big bell outside his body, covering him and blocking all the shrapnel.

“Whoosh whoosh!”

But then, he heard the sound of rockets streaking across the sky.

Then hundreds of heavy rockets covered the valley where Li Changshou was.

The carpet bombing was capable of destroying almost any mortal who appeared here.

Unfortunately, a second before the explosion, Li Changshou had already performed the earth escape technique and escaped deep into the earth.

“Are you here to kill me?”

Dozens of meters underground, Li Changshou felt the strong vibration coming from the ground, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.

Logically speaking, he had no conflict with the military, so why would he bomb himself with missiles?

Did they mistake him for an alien who invaded the earth?

Let him enjoy the same treatment as those three strange people back then.

But after the seals on the major caves and blessed places disappeared, wasn’t the ban on aliens entering the world abolished?
Could it be that because Lin Nuoyi and Chu Feng left one after another, the mortal leaders once again saw hope of restraining the aliens?

For a moment, the sound of explosions in the gully on the ground continued, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through Li Changshou’s mind underground.

However, even a clay figure can still have some temper, let alone Li Changshou who has been reborn.

Seeing that the explosion outside was obviously going to kill him, he also wanted to make people realize the truth that those who kill will be killed.

Afterwards, Li Changshou used the earth escape technique to escape into an underground river.

And it’s also a weapon refiner.

Using Yellow Spring Stone as the main material and other rare materials as a supplement, a seal was finally refined.

There was a faint aura of the underworld emanating from the Yellow Spring Seal, as if it had the power to capture souls.

While Li Changshou was refining the weapon, the Joint Command Center was reviewing the results of the battle.

There was no trace of Li Changshou in the ravine.

Satellite monitoring also did not detect any signs of life.

“Report, mission accomplished. The target has been completely eliminated.” The team carrying out the mission reported to the top management.

“Well done.” The senior executive immediately smiled.

However, several heads of special departments who had participated in the suppression of aliens looked solemn.

“Sir, this is probably not the time to be happy. Li Changshou might not have been killed in the explosion.” One of them immediately spoke up when he saw that the top leaders were planning to withdraw the team.

“Who can withstand the attack of tens of thousands of bombs?” said the senior military official.

“Aliens are not so easy to kill. Back then, we only had to use tactical nuclear weapons to deal with three aliens in the Free and Easy Realm. But even so, we only managed to kill two of them, and it was a heavy price to pay. According to the information reported by the aliens on the moon’s foundation, Li Changshou’s cultivation is unfathomable, even higher than those three people back then. I’m afraid we can’t kill him with missiles alone.” The head of the special department explained.

Then they released the video of them besieging the aliens.

Once they reach the Free and Easy Realm, conventional weapons are almost ineffective, and even a head-on hit will not hurt them at all.

“Search for Li Changshou’s whereabouts immediately. Find him alive or dead.” The senior military officials ordered hurriedly.

At this moment, Li Changshou’s figure suddenly appeared in the image of the reconnaissance satellite.

He was seen standing on the top of a high mountain, holding a dark yellow seal in his hand, looking up at the sky, as if he was having a video call with them through a reconnaissance satellite.

The expert who was proficient in lip reading immediately understood what Li Changshou was saying from his mouth shape.

“Karma is a cycle, and those who kill will die.”

After hearing the analysis by the lip-reading expert, everyone immediately felt a chill on their backs.

It seemed as if some disaster was about to befall them.

“Quick, use the hydrogen bomb immediately to destroy him completely.”

The top military officials immediately issued the final battle order.

“Cough cough!”

But at this moment, someone coughed in the command hall.

No one paid attention to it at first, but after the coughing sound appeared, it seemed like a chain reaction had occurred, and more and more people joined the coughing army.

A few minutes later, the person who was coughing the lowest suddenly coughed out a piece of lung lobe, then spat out a mouthful of black blood, and fell to the ground and died.

Immediately afterwards, people continued to repeat the man’s death process.

Half an hour later, there was no living person in the command hall.

At the same time, the mortal soldiers who were responsible for encircling and suppressing Li Zhi all died with blood gushing from their seven orifices.

Even the fighter planes flying in the sky were no exception. After the pilots died, all the fighter planes crashed to the ground and exploded.

Even the hydrogen bombs on the launch pads exploded on the spot before they could fly out of the launch pads.

A moment later, it seemed as if dozens of suns suddenly appeared in the sky near Kunlun.

The whole earth was shaking and the sky seemed to be torn apart.

The doomsday scene shocked the world. Seeing this, all the cultivators in the secret realm of Sanxian Island took a deep breath.

“What a powerful spell. It can actually kill so many people from a distance.” The old man from Shushan exclaimed.

“It is wishful thinking for a few mere mortals to think that they can be on equal footing with us just by mastering some bombs.”

“That’s not the case. Those mortal weapons still have some merits, especially thermonuclear weapons. Even we may not be able to withstand the high temperatures head-on. Although not as strong as the sun’s true fire, it is enough to burn through the protective divine light of ordinary cultivators.”

“It’s a good thing to let those mortals suffer a little. They really think they are a piece of cake.”

Apparently, these old-timers are very bothered by what happened in previous years.

Before, mortals were merely consumables in their eyes.

If the Earth was not a place without any spirits and there was a seal blocking them, they would never allow mortals to possess such powerful strength.

Although mortal weapons cannot kill them, their destructive power is already considerable.

“Everyone, Li Changshou doesn’t seem to be that easy to deal with. I wonder what your plans are next. Do you want to take action yourself, or send your disciples to kill him?” asked the old Taoist priest of Sanxian Island.

“Needless to say, we should let our disciples take action. In my opinion, we should each send three disciples from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm to intercept and kill him. No matter how strange his methods are, he will only end up in regret in the end.”

“I agree with Daoist Master Shi’s proposal. Mortals’ methods are still unreliable.”

They actually all know that it is not that mortals’ methods are unreliable, but that mortals themselves are unreliable.

No matter how powerful a mortal’s military force is, his defense will be like a crispy egg in front of a cultivator and will break at the slightest touch.

Especially when facing those monks who are good at spiritual magic, they can slaughter billions of mortals without anyone noticing.

Riding a flying sword to take someone’s head from thousands of miles away is just the most common method.

If a saint attacks those mortals, it only takes one breath to rip the life force of billions of mortals from their bodies.

“In that case, it is decided as it is.” The old Taoist priest said finally.

Then the party broke up.

As for whether they will act according to the agreement, everyone knows it.

At this moment, Li Changshou had already left Kunlun.

He wanted to find out why those mortals attacked him.

Who gave them such courage?

Afterwards, Li Changshou traveled east alone.

Along the way, they once again encountered the desperate resistance of the mortal army.

But in the face of Li Changshou’s mysterious and elusive methods, mortal weapons are simply unreliable.

The killing power of the Yellow Spring Seal can kill any mortal who has murderous intentions towards him.

This kind of method is not something that mortals can resist.

The scene they expected, where Li Changshou would use his magical powers to engage in “hand-to-hand combat” with them like other extraordinary people, did not appear at all.

In their view, the aliens are just a group of humans with great powers.

As long as their missiles are fast enough and the explosion is powerful enough, even aliens will be killed.

But no one expected that Li Changshou would not play by the rules.

Directly used a strange spell.

Leaving them without the ability to defend themselves.

If Li Changshou only mastered physical attacks, they were confident that they could blow him to death before he broke their defenses.

But now, launching soul attacks on them is too much for them to bear.

There’s no use hiding.

The strange spell seemed to be able to cause the evil diseases in the mortal system to suddenly break out.

Someone died from coughing.

Someone died of cerebral congestion.

Some people even pretended to be dead because their vehicles lost control.

Most people seemed confused.

The mortal leaders fell into unprecedented panic at this moment.

When Lin Nuoyi and Chu Feng were at loggerheads, they didn’t have this feeling of fear.

Only at this moment did they realize that monks did not need to kill people in person.

At this moment, they finally understood how terrifying the crushing from the life level was.

When Li Changshou traveled five thousand miles to the capital, the whole city was in chaos.

Countless people rushed to flee the city.

All kinds of rumors spread.

Some said that an unprecedented super plague broke out in the imperial capital, while others said that the gods were destroying the world and planning to massacre the entire world.

Some people even took the opportunity to release the demons in their hearts and began to trample on the lives of others unscrupulously.

For a time, people were in chaos and order collapsed, as if the end of civilization had truly arrived.

Although Li Changshou saw all these scenes, he did not feel any ripples in his heart.

It was as if the suffering these mortals faced was not caused by him.

In fact, at this moment, Li Changshou simply could not empathize with these mortals.

Respect the fate of others and ignore their suffering.

For Li Zhi, who has lived for countless tens of thousands of years, this belief has long been engraved in his bones.

When Li Changshou arrived at the Purple Palace, the surviving government officials had been waiting for him there for a long time.

“Every grudge has its own owner. You shouldn’t attack those mortals.” An old man stared at Li Changshou with a miserable face.

“You see, it’s all because of your wanton killing that countless people have been displaced and plunged into hell,” said another old man.

Li Changshou remained calm as he listened to the questions from these mortal high-ranking officials.

It was as if the other party’s accusation was not directed at him.

Only after everyone on the opposite side spoke did Li Changshou calmly say, “Ignorance and arrogance are indeed bad habits that are difficult for mortals to eradicate.”

After saying that, Li Changshou turned and left.

If they had no intention of killing him, he would not kill them.

Coming to see them was just a farewell to Li Changshou’s mortal life.

Perhaps from this moment on, the chapter of blood and bones has slowly begun.

Recalling the battles on the ancient trial road of the human race during the time of Covering the Sky, where an entire planet’s life was often bloodbathed, Li Changshou did not think that the billions of lives on Earth were an exception.

When it comes to death, no one is innocent.

Instead of resenting and blaming others, work hard to improve yourself.

There are so many innocent people in the universe, but the world’s general trend will not let them survive just because they are innocent.

This is the truth about the evolution of ancient history.

To live or to die depends entirely on one’s fate.

Cruel?
It’s cruel, but that’s the reality.

Since the era of The Great Ruler, so many innocent people have died, but has it affected the development of the overall situation?

The answer is no.

Standing above the sky, overlooking the world that was gradually falling into chaos, Li Changshou’s eyes were filled with peace.
