Ch. 1706 - Heavenly Dao’s Number Four
Inside Xu Zimo’s body, powerful force vortices rotated incessantly.
After entering the Infinite Dao Realm, Xu Zimo discovered that the number of Power Vortexes he could condense had increased significantly, now numbering in the hundreds of trillions within his body.
As a result, the power of the Heaven-Shattering Force became far stronger than before.
He struck out with a palm.
In an instant, heaven and earth surged with wind and clouds, and the entire void began to shatter continuously.
That palm descended from the sky.
The Man-Beast frowned. Before he even had time to resist, he was smashed into a lump of flesh by Xu Zimo’s strike.
Yet in the next moment, the Man-Beast returned to his original state, as if he had suffered no damage at all.
“I am immortal,” the man sneered.
“Only I can kill you. You cannot kill me.”
“Even the Heavenly Dao can be slain. Where does eternal life come from in this world?” Xu Zimo snorted coldly.
His Absolute Annihilation God-Eye opened.
The annihilation aura between heaven and earth twisted everything.
The Man-Beast was shredded once again.
Xu Zimo carefully observed the man’s resurrection. Finally, he noticed something unusual.
Every time the man died, a surge of life energy would erupt from within his body.
It was an extremely powerful life aura, likely originating from something specific.
After being killed repeatedly by Xu Zimo, the Man-Beast became utterly furious.
He roared incessantly.
From his shoulders, the forms of a tiger and a lion manifested.
“Roar, roar, roar!”
The two beasts roared as they charged toward Xu Zimo.
These were manifestations of beast edicts.
They carried a dense aura of the king of all beasts.
Shadow Tyrant leaped from Xu Zimo’s hand.
With one slash each, he destroyed both the lion and the tiger.
Immediately after, Xu Zimo closed in and struck again, severing all three of the Man-Beast’s heads in a single blow.
At this moment, Xu Zimo was like a butcher.
He dismembered the lion-tiger’s corpse, breaking bones and stripping flesh. In the end, he found the object that was emitting the life aura.
It was a golden bone.
The reason the Man-Beast could resurrect again and again was entirely because of this golden bone.
Xu Zimo placed it in his palm, yet could not see anything unusual about it.
“Interesting,” he said.
He put the golden bone away, planning to have the True Martial Progenitor examine it later.
As for the Man-Beast, his expression changed drastically as he began to struggle frantically.
“Give it back to me. Give that thing back to me. I beg you!”
At this moment, the Man-Beast’s entire body trembled. In an instant, he turned into a pile of bones.
Xu Zimo looked at the bones.
They were already somewhat decayed.
Judging by their condition, they had clearly been dead for a very long time.
He was shocked.
A pile of bones that had been dead for so long had actually come back to life because of that small golden bone.
This situation was not far removed from the creation of life itself.
Xu Zimo raised his head and looked toward Miss Jing in the sky.
She did not seem surprised that Xu Zimo had killed the Man-Beast.
“You were testing me, using that man to test me,” Xu Zimo said.
“Young Master truly is astonishing,” Miss Jing replied with a smile.
“When we first met, you were still a Grand Emperor, newly bearing the Heaven’s Will. I never imagined that you would already reach the Infinite Dao Realm.”
Xu Zimo ignored her words and instead asked, “What is your relationship with… Four?”
The number Four.
Back when Xu Zimo had traveled through the river of time to trace Miss Jing’s origin, all he had obtained was the number “Four”.
He had pondered it endlessly, yet could not understand it. Still, he believed that such numbers must have meaning.
Numbers were the foundation of edicts.
Hearing Xu Zimo’s question, Miss Jing looked surprised.
“You actually know that great being’s name.”
“Sometimes I’m really curious,” Xu Zimo said.
“There are always some inexplicable people who want to kill me, to lay schemes against me.”
This was something Xu Zimo could never quite understand.
The Heavenly Dao wanting to kill him made sense, since he harbored the ambition to slay the heavens.
But those inexplicable people, even if it was because of his previous incarnation, that incarnation was already dead. Shouldn’t dust return to dust and earth to earth?
“The great being you speak of, what kind of existence is he?” Xu Zimo asked.
“That’s not something you need to know,” Miss Jing replied. “To be honest, I really don’t want to be your enemy. But today, that great being has given an order, so I still have to capture you.”
“Then I’d like to see how you plan to capture me,” Xu Zimo snorted.
Miss Jing’s expression remained calm.
A strand of black spirit energy surged between her fingers, and her hand began to draw in the void.
Runes appeared one after another in the air.
The moment the runes took shape, the entire world fell into silence.
Because heaven and earth were sealed and suppressed.
“Eight Vanguard Generals, activate the Great Teleportation Formation,” Miss Jing said.
As her voice fell, eight figures hidden within the void appeared around them.
Each of these figures was perfectly merged with the void, exceptionally well concealed.
“Rise,” the eight shouted in unison.
The entire world began to rage violently.
It was as if heaven and earth were about to be overturned.
Then, the void where Xu Zimo stood began to rotate.
Xu Zimo frowned, sensing that the situation was not simple.
Because after this space was sealed, even the rules themselves were sealed.
Xu Zimo looked up and saw that the source lay in the runes in the sky.
He was somewhat surprised.
This formation was truly profound.
Xu Zimo attacked the formation repeatedly, but it was all in vain.
The formation’s defensive power was absurdly strong.
The rotation of the formation grew faster and faster. It was unclear where it intended to send him.
Xu Zimo was considering whether he should use the power of the God World to escape.
Just then, a massive hand suddenly extended from the sky.
The moment it appeared, it instantly immobilized the rotating formation.
“Come back quickly,” a voice sounded.
Xu Zimo heard it clearly. It was the voice of the True Martial Progenitor.
The voice shattered the formation and reached straight toward Miss Jing.
Miss Jing’s expression changed drastically.
She hurriedly cried out, “My lord, save me!”
In that instant, a transcendent power erupted from Miss Jing’s body.
Boom.
That power wrapped around Miss Jing and fled into the distance.
Even the True Martial Progenitor’s giant hand was scattered by it.
“What kind of power was that?” Xu Zimo was astonished.
The power flashed past and then vanished completely.
“Return as soon as possible. Everything is already prepared,” the True Martial Progenitor said, and his giant hand disappeared. “We’ll talk when you’re back.”
…
Xu Zimo knew that he was not far from the True Martial Sacred Ground.
He glanced at his direction and began walking through the void.
Originally, he planned to return directly.
However, on the way back, he seemed to sense something.
He stepped out of the void.
Before him stood a city.
The city was massive, but what was astonishing was that its walls were golden.
The city walls were actually built from gold.
That was truly extravagant.
Xu Zimo prepared to enter the city to take a look. Not far away, he saw a small group approaching.
