Chapter 435 - History

“Senior Zhuge, it’s me! Li Huowang!” Li Huowang pointed at his original body which was under Li Sui's control and recounted everything that happened.

Zhuge Yuan soon understood what was going on. The most uptodate novels are published on n0velbjn((.))com

Li Huowang then urged, “Senior Zhuge, let's go ahead and leave! We cannot stay here for too long! The fight between the Surveillance Bureau of the Liang Kingdom and the two Sitting Oblivion Daos is too intense! You'll die here if you stay!”

Zhuge Yuan shook his head and pointed at the palace in front of him. “No. We're already halfway through the coup. We cannot stop now.”

Li Huowang's experience differed greatly compared to Zhuge Yuan. From Zhuge Yuan's point of view, he and the others had just entered the palace. They were about to force the undead emperor of the Qi Kingdom to step down.

Zhuge Yuan looked around him and saw soldiers clad in heavy armor as well as the officials of the palace. They were all staring at Zhuge Yuan; clearly, they thought of Zhuge Yuan as their leader.

Li Huowang was extremely distressed, but Zhuge Yuan remained calm. He even sounded confident as he said, “Don’t worry. Everything is going to be fine. I'm here, after all.”

Li Huowang looked around and saw a different scenery. The Liang Kingdom palace was coated in gold, but the Qi Kingdom was covered in snow. The difference was so huge that it was unmistakable.

Even the strange chanting from the Liang Kingdom had disappeared, and it seemed unable to pierce the boundary of the white snow and gold. To think that a Twisted One can stop even the influence of a Siming.

“How much longer do I have to wait?” Li Huowang was impatient.

“Fifteen more minutes. The study room is just ahead of us, and it's where the empress recites sutras. The young undead emperor should be inside, too. We just need to force him to step down, and everything will be settled by then.”

Li Huowang looked down at his body under Li Sui's control and gnashed his teeth.

“Fine! I will help you! We need to settle this as soon as possible!”

Zhuge Yuan rushed forward, and the scenery peeled away.

Some of the people from the Liang Kingdom were whisked away into the Qi Kingdom. Fortunately, the Sitting Oblivion Dao and the Surveillance Bureau were so busy fighting each other that neither of them wanted to fight Zhuge Yuan.

Zhuge Yuan frowned. The people running past him were turning into courtesans and eunuchs running for their lives. His frown deepened at the sight, and he seemed to have recalled something.

The door burst open, and low chanting echoed from the study room accompanied by knocks on a wooden fish. “The Four Arhats Protects Us, Praise The Sacred Self, Love and Protect the Cultivator.”

A group of monks and abbots in yellow had filled the entirety of the study room.

They sat in a circle of six rings.

Some of the monks in the room vanished into thin air. Zhuge Yuan had just spirited away some of them using the Muddled One's painting.

“Tai!” Some of the monks clapped, and their eyes bulged out of anger. They grew larger, while several arms extended from their backs, making them look like peacocks unfurling their tail feathers.

The two groups were about to start fighting, but a violent tremor abruptly shook the room. The strange chanting capable of dispersing the Ten Emotions and Eight Sufferings echoed just then.

Zhuge Yuan and everyone around him collapsed to the ground.

Some even started fading as their fleshly bodies returned to "Chaos."

“What's going on?!” Li Huowang turned around and saw the colossal vertical pupil that was supposed to exist only in the Liang Kingdom.

“Senior Zhuge!" Li Huowang covered his ears and shouted, "We can’t stay here any longer! I don’t know what that is, but it's affecting even the Great Qi!”

However, Zhuge Yuan didn't believe the sight at all and coldly snorted. “Hmph! How dare you try to fool me! So what if you're big? You're still fake!”

Zhuge Yuan took out his almanac and brandished his brush.

Before he could finish writing, however, the colossal pupil glared at Zhuge Yuan.

Zhuge Yuan was struck by excruciating pain, which forced him on his knees.

A transparent barrier flickered to life around Zhuge Yuan, protecting him as the clouds housing the colossal vertical pupil rolled closer to him.

Li Huowang struggled to move. He had to do something, or Zhuge Yuan would die!

In the end, Li Huowang decided to go all out. He took out a dagger and thrust it into his neck before slicing it all the way downward his mid-section. Then, he unfurled the Profound Records and laid it on the ground. “Wooden Liver! Earth Spleen! Metal Lungs! Water Kidneys! Fire Heart! Five Elements Intercalation!”

Li Huowang sacrificed his organs[1] and his five senses merged, allowing him to perceive Ba-Hui's presence.

The red bamboo slips of the Profound Records transformed into maggots that burrowed into him. They nibbled on his flesh and multiplied rapidly. Soon, the maggots filled up every single cavity in Li Huowang's fleshly body, and they soon leaked out of his orifices.

However, Li Huowang felt great. He was no longer in pain, and his mind was as calm as a placid lake. The colossal vertical pupil was still glaring at him from above, but it could no longer affect him, much less the strange chanting.

Unfortunately, Li Huowang couldn't cast the Five Elements Intercalation so easily. He could only use it whenever he was on the brink of death. Thankfully, he was in Bei Feng’s fleshly body rather than in his own fleshly body.
