Chapter 1500: Smiling During The Storm
The mass opened their heavenly gaze in order to find Li Qiye’s whereabouts. However, they still couldn’t detect him at all.
“Do you know the mysteries behind this grand momentum and its real effects?” Li Qiye’s leisure voice suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The majestic figure immediately turned around and stared at him.
“Over there!” Someone followed the voice and pointed over.
Everyone followed this direction and saw Li Qiye standing below the old tree. He was actually standing within the grand momentum and gazing at the nine leaves growing on its roots.
The majestic figure’s eyes flashed as if it wanted to cross through the eons to kill Li Qiye inside that momentum.
Unfortunately, its gaze alone couldn’t kill Li Qiye due to his location.
“How, how can this be?!” The old monarch found this unbelievable and took a deep breath: “Even emperors in the legends can’t break down this momentum. How, how did he get in?!”
Everyone stared at him and didn’t know how he got in. Keep in mind that the prince’s group failed to do so since they couldn’t come up with a suitable method. Otherwise, they would have taken the medicine long ago.
Of course, most experts heaved a sigh of relief to see him safe and sound, still eagerly waiting for him to come up with another miracle.
“This is another miracle!” One master said emotionally after his stealthy entrance into the grand momentum.
One charming expert had to say: “What miracle can’t he do when he could even train thirteen palaces?”
“Boom!” The figure stepped towards the momentum with the intention of coming inside. It stomped down and even Godhalt itself seemed to be caving in with the momentum.
“Boom!” But it didn’t matter how strong it was. Its stomp couldn’t infiltrate this momentum and was ricocheted backward.
People gasped before this scene. Everyone saw just how powerful this figure was but now, it was forced several steps back. One could easily imagine the strength of the backlash earlier.
“Bang!” It whirled both arms around and smashed ruthlessly down again. Both arms seemed to be gathering the weight of countless stars. The earth shook again with such an incredible intensity.
Alas, the ground was still fine while the figure was bounced off for very far before stabilizing.
“This grand momentum is unreal.” One commenter said after seeing the figure unable to stand still from the backlash.
“How could it not be strong?” The old monarch replied: “This is the legendary medicine for immortality. If the momentum protecting it isn’t strong, it would have been taken away by someone long ago and wouldn’t be someone’s turn from our generation.”
“Then how did Li Qiye go in?” Someone couldn’t help asking.
The monarch couldn’t answer this question. In fact, no one could.
“Rumble!” The majestic figure launched an unending barrage like a storm on the momentum. It looked just like a raging dragon to the dismay of the crowd. Such terrible power was the harbinger of doom.
The world trembled before one wave of assault after another. Even Godhalt itself looked like a tiny boat floating in the torrential ocean and could be destroyed at any time under this violent circumstance.
Meanwhile, the experts here were the ants boarding on this boat. If the boat were to be destroyed, they would also die without a burial as well.
Because of this, many fell to the ground, throbbing with fear. Some almost pissed their pants.
Only Li Qiye was as calm as ever inside the grand momentum. He carefully appreciated the nine leaves on the root as if it was the most beautiful thing in this world.
From start to finish, he didn’t bother looking at the majestic figure.
Ultimately, it still failed to push through the momentum. In fact, it couldn’t move it at all so it had to give up and stood outside.
People held their breath before this scene. They thought that it was waiting. If Li Qiye dared to come outside, it would immediately kill him without giving him the slightest opening.
In a short time, they wondered how Li Qiye will deal with this crisis before him. After a long time, Li Qiye turned around and chuckled: “Giving up is the right choice. Even an emperor has to pay a great price to break through it, let alone a supreme formation.”
A large part of why this momentum was impregnable was due to its connection with Godhalt and the Divine Tree Ridge. If one wanted to successfully do so, they must be able to affect the entire continent or even drag the Divine Tree Ridge from the ground.
This was easier said than done. An emperor would still find the price prohibitive.
In fact, Li Qiye had been wanting the nine leaves since a long time ago. He even researched the grand momentum for many eras and brought other emperors here as well to join in.
Later on, he was able to figure out its mysteries, allowing him to enter inside right now silently.
The figure’s eyes fixated on Li Qiye as if there was no way for him to escape from it. Li Qiye didn’t seem to care and turned back to look at the nine leaves: “This thing that you all refer to as a medicine for immortality, emperors and sea gods have come, treefathers as well. Do you know why haven’t they taken it away?”
This was indeed the question looming on everyone’s mind. They knew full well that emperors could still take down this place. The issue was whether it was worth it or not.
The majestic figure glared at him and didn’t say anything. Perhaps it couldn’t speak since it was only derived from a formation.
“Outside of the difficulty in attacking it, there is another reason. These leaves have yet to mature so forcefully taking it away is even harder. Once taken away, it would wither instantly and become a useless grass.” He said before turning back with a thick grin on his face: “However, it is near maturity right now, only a little bit away before it leaves the roots. As the idiom goes, when the melon is ripe, it falls.”
“The medicine for immortality is almost ready.” Many cultivators lying on the ground felt their heart beating faster.
It would be deceitful to deny one’s interest. This was a medicine for immortality; anyone would desire such an item especially the older experts on the verge of death.
“How much longer will it take to mature?” Someone at this time actually shouted at Li Qiye, unable to restrain themselves.
“A tiny bit longer.” He revealed a mysterious smile: “However, I can lend it a hand to accelerate this growing process so that it can reach maturity right away.”
