Chapter 4: The Inheritance of Divine Might
The greatest glory of my life is having met your mother and giving birth to you
Later, they engaged in a great battle against the foreign domain's Qin warrior figurines, ultimately suppressing them there. After ten thousand years, the warrior figurines dissipated, but among the seven, some ascended while others fell, leaving no one in the world, only the legendary might of the original seven.
Upon entering the town and heading towards the inn, halfway there, Luo Li heard distant cries. Looking over from afar, he saw a crowd gathered there. He casually inquired, and the hidden agent replied:
Master Ciyun smiled with satisfaction and continued speaking
In the midst of Master Ciyun's soliloquy, Luoli completed the set of rituals. He looked at his father and couldn't help but frown. Over the past year, Master Ciyun had increasingly yearned for the past, engaging in self-talk, which was not a good omen.
Another thing is to obtain the supreme inheritance of the once-dominant Divine Might Sect. With these two great honors, I can say that my life has not been lived in vain
Liu Jincai, wealthy yet unkind, is known for his harsh demeanor, having offended many neighbors. No one is willing to assist in carrying his coffin, and his family pleads with the neighbors.
In the distance, Xiao Qing shook her head and said, "Alas, he has started doing good deeds again"
Unfortunately, in the past, Liu Jincai was excessively malicious and spiteful, offending countless neighbors. The community held a grudge against him, and not a single person came to his aid
At this point, Master Ciyun let out a sigh and continued to speak
You must live happily and joyfully! Live out your own brilliance!
Many neighbors came over in response to his call to offer assistance
Although I have preserved your life, I have still violated the sect's rules. Even though my master has ensured my survival, you and I have been sent to this lifeless place, left to fend for ourselves.
As time gradually passed, it soon arrived; the Marquis of Xinling was about to reach Heifengkou. With a single command, Luo Li and the others all set out towards Heifengkou.
The highest realm of supernatural powers, the supreme secret method, can be mastered without any cultivation or cost, allowing one to grasp extraordinary supernatural abilities
Here lies the hidden stronghold of the Heavenly Absolute Killing Hall, where an inn has been established. Guests may rest here, and they offer accommodations as well as a variety of delicious food and beverages. Everyone can rest during the day and at night launch a surprise attack on the Black Wind Pass to eliminate the Marquis of Xinling
At that time, your mother had countless companions trapped in the divine prison, all pursuing her fervently. Among them were disciples from prestigious sects, renowned heroes, powerful beings who were also Golden Core True Persons, and past friends of hers, yet she chose me
The Silver State Continent is nothing but a cage, where cultivation is impossible. As a century passes, naturally, dust returns to dust, and earth returns to earth. I am sorry, my child, I did not fulfill your mother's last wish before she passed away
Longshou Mountain is a full hundred miles from Heifengkou. Luo Li and the others rode their horses at full speed, heading straight there. One day later, on the morning of October 1st, they arrived at Houtun Town near Heifengkou, which is only five miles west of the small river at Heifengkou.
Luo Li repeated it once more, lost in thought. Having lived in this soulless land since childhood, he had been an assassin from a young age. He had never known what the world beyond Yinzhou truly looked like
However, the Divine Might Sect has already undergone four major tribulations, and now only three great divine mights remain there. You must remember this ritual, and be sure to only claim one divine might; do not be greedy.
Master Ciyun continued to speak; in fact, this was no longer directed at Luo Li, but rather a monologue, spoken for his own sake
In the Central Heaven of the World, in the Chunan region, at the entrance of Changzhou Tianmu Mountain, beneath the inscriptions of Tianmu Mountain, a ritual is performed to worship the three characters of Tianmu Mountain, thereby obtaining one of the seven divine powers of the Divine Might Sect
Indeed, when a person dies, it is like a lamp being extinguished; let the past be the past! Come on, we have been neighbors for many years, everyone come and lend a hand!
Master Ciyun said: "Alright, demonstrate it once!"
Returning to the human realm
Encountering a cultivator, even if the opponent is merely at the first level of Qi Refinement, with a single fire talisman, you are undoubtedly doomed. With a Vajra talisman, even if you stab them with a hundred or more swords, they remain completely unharmed
This is the divine might, the majesty of the divine, omnipotent, indestructible, invulnerable, and unmatched
Liu Jincai's wife and daughter were there, crying and pleading, kneeling before the neighbors, promising to give everyone as much silver as they could, as long as they helped.
Luo Li has returned, and everyone began to rest and recuperate. Tonight, we will launch an attack on Heifengkou and eliminate the Marquis of Xinling
Watching Luo Li's demonstration, Master Ci Yun nodded slightly and said with a sense of melancholy
At that time, the Shenwei Sect acted contrary to the principles of cultivation, violating the heavenly laws of immortality, using humans to refine spirits, and capturing fellow cultivators from all over the world. I was also captured and taken into the divine prison, where I was tortured and refined by them, enduring a fate worse than death
Even if I were to descend into the depths of hell, I would still do so!
Because they forced us, the cultivators whose abilities were restricted, to pair up as couples and bear children, it was under such circumstances that I met your mother, who was once a Golden Core True Person
You must take control of your own destiny! Live freely and independently, never allowing others to dictate your life!
At this point, he did not wish to continue discussing the topic and instead said, "Do you remember the divine offering ceremony of the Shenwei Sect?"
Luo Li nodded, taking all of this to heart
Luo Li smiled and said, "Father, I understand. You need not say more. Your son is not foolish; I am the world's number one assassin. Moreover, as you know, my abilities are unmatched. While I may not claim to be invincible, I can confidently say that in Silver Prefecture, there is no rival to me. Rest assured!"
In that divine prison, we spent the happiest three years, the most joyful three years of my life, until your birth. The divine power defied the heavens, using humans to forge gods; your birth coincided with the moment of your mother's demise. I was in immense pain at that time, and she grasped my hand, compelling me to swear:
Upon witnessing this scene, the once portly and round-faced Zhang Yuanwai, who had appeared in the Taoist temple, exclaimed
If Master Ciyun had abandoned Luoli back then, he might have inherited the legacy of the Divine Might Sect and realized his ideals, becoming a powerful figure high above. However, for the sake of Luoli, he chose to remain in this predicament, and after a century passed, he turned into dust.
Originally, these secrets were known only to the young master of the Shenwei Sect. I tortured him for a full three months before I managed to uncover them
I never expected that I, a mere ant of the Seven Kill Sect, could actually obtain it
Although I do not know what they intend to do now, and although I was tormented by them to the point of unbearable pain at that time, I still want to express my utmost gratitude to them
Master Ciyun came to his senses and looked at Luo Li. Luo Li immediately understood what he was about to ask and hurriedly said
The fierce dragon chuckled: "This is the last good deed. In this world, good people receive no rewards. Hmph, he will regret it!"
Master Ciyun shook his head and said: "This so-called Seven Kills and Eighteen Techniques requires no effort; it is merely the ultimate swordsmanship of mortals, devoid of any true essence, and utterly useless
Only for the sake of liking it
Luo Li began to demonstrate a series of movements, which were ancient and solemn, comprising a total of 108 actions, some for worship and others for dance, subtly infused with a primal atmosphere
With this inheritance, you have enough to live the life you desire in the vast world, freely and joyfully, never to be swayed by others! This is the greatest wealth I leave to you!
Having spoken, he grasped the coffin firmly and with a gentle effort, placed the coffin, weighing over 300 pounds, onto the hearse
After a while, having calmed down, he continued, "Later, when the affairs of the Divine Might Sect were exposed, the six sects, including the Hunyuan Sect, destroyed the Divine Might Sect and shattered the Divine Prison. I escaped with you, not knowing what exactly the Divine Might Sect had done. Most of the infants born in the Divine Prison were silenced by the six sects. For your sake, I had no choice but to return to the Seven Kill Sect to ensure your safety"
Master Ciyun finally said: "My child, during this operation, you must be cautious..."
This divine might is unparalleled. In the past, the Seven Ancestors of the Divine Might Sect each mastered a unique divine power, capable of moving mountains and filling seas, destroying heaven and obliterating earth, and were known as the Seven Sons of Divine Might
In the years to come, the Shenwei Sect faced a calamity, resulting in the destruction of its mountain gate and the dissolution of the sect. However, there were disciples of revival who, at the critical moment, received a divine law bestowed by the ancestral masters of the celestial realm. There, they obtained a decree of divine might and subsequently revitalized the sect. Thus, that place became the most important site of inheritance for the Shenwei Sect
In Master Ciyun's tone, there is both nostalgia and regret, a pain that penetrates to the bone, a sentiment etched in the heart, which, even after many years, cannot ultimately be forgotten
He said with concern: "Father, are you alright?"
I tormented him for a full three months, making it so that he could neither live nor die, to the point where I myself found it difficult to endure. Only then did I obtain this supreme inheritance of the Divine Might Sect
Originally, he could have killed us like squashing ants; fortunately, he was gravely injured and had no strength left, and was captured by me
Luo Li let out a long sigh, dismounted, and walked over slowly, saying: "When a person dies, it is like a lamp extinguished; regardless of how things were in the past, we are neighbors after all, so let us help him!"
On September 27, Mayor Liu Jincai accidentally fell off his horse and died; today is the day of his funeral. In fact, this task was carried out by us, intended for training and practicing new disciples.
You must survive!
Luo Li said: "Remember it well!"
That is the most glorious and happiest moment of my life
His actions and expressions, at this moment, appeared extraordinarily sacred, demonstrating with meticulous precision
When the divine prison collapsed that year, I fled with you desperately, only to unexpectedly encounter him, the young master of the Divine Might Sect, that once lofty existence.
You do not yet understand its value; when you return to the Central Heaven Great World and use it to obtain the divine power of the Divine Might Sect, you will realize its preciousness
Forget it, when you arrive at the Central Heavenly Realm and feel the spiritual energy, you will understand
Dear child, you must remember, remember well
Luo Li nodded slightly and looked over to see a coffin resting beside the hearse, yet no one was making an effort to lift the coffin onto the hearse
Seeing Luo Li's face filled with surprise and doubt, Master Ci Yun shook his head and continued
Regarding this, the two fell silent and did not speak any further. After a long while, Luo Li finally spoke up and said: "Father, I have successfully mastered the entire Fierce Sword Technique!"
Master Ciyun nodded slightly, ceased speaking, and began to focus on the string of prayer beads in his hand. Luo Li stood up and slowly departed.
Then Luo Li turned around and left, while Liu Jincai's wife and daughter continuously bowed in reverence behind him
Rest assured, I will definitely send you away from this Silver State continent, allowing you to live in a realm of freedom, to live freely and unrestrained, where no one can dictate your life
To this day, I still remember when I asked her why she chose me. She looked at me and said that sentence: There is no reason, it is simply because I like you!
In those years, when I was young, had I obtained such a secret method, I would undoubtedly have achieved the status of a Golden Elixir True Person, a Nascent Soul True Monarch, and might even have become a Transformation God True Venerable
Unfortunately, at that time, I was merely an outer disciple of the Seven Kills Sect, at the seventh level of Qi Refinement, quite ordinary
