Chapter 1985: An Assassination Attempt
Chapter 1985: An Assassination Attempt
"Great Elder, at last you are here. We really can’t hold on any longer." A Daluo God Early Stage Expert immediately sought support.
Bai Li didn’t speak, but took a step forward and flew straight to the sky above the bow.
With a sword in her hand, she slashed downward, instantly forming a terrifying sword radiance.
The sword radiance hit the vortex ahead, causing its spinning speed to halt.
"Did it succeed?" The other Daluo God Level experts were pleasantly surprised.
Xu Nian was also astonished.
Such a terrifying storm, dispersed by just one sword strike?
However, Bai Li’s brows were tightly furrowed.
"Boom!"
The next moment, the vortex that had been scattered suddenly began to spin again.
Moreover, its force was even greater than before; the entire ship was instantly drawn into the vortex.
As if, in the next moment, it would be torn to pieces.
"What’s going on, wasn’t the storm already dispersed?" A Daluo God Early Stage Expert said fearfully.
The other two Daluo Gods were also puzzled, all looking at Bai Li.
Bai Li’s brows were furrowed to the extreme, but she didn’t employ her swordsmanship again. Instead, she summoned a divine artifact, similar to a copper bell.
Divine power surged, and the divine bell was instantly enlarged, enveloping the entire ship.
"Dang dang!"
The thunder within the storm continuously struck the copper bell, producing explosive sounds.
The terrifying tearing force also disappeared accordingly.
The entire divine ship stabilized once more.
"It’s actually a God King Level divine artifact." Xu Nian immediately recognized the gigantic divine bell encasing the entire divine ship as a Low Grade God King Level weapon.
Otherwise, the Daluo God Artifact couldn’t possibly withstand this terrifying tearing force and the terrifying thunderous assault.
"With the protection of this Giant Spirit Bell, the storm should hardly affect the divine ship. Li Mu, stabilize the ship, I’ll find a way to pull the divine ship away from the vortex." Bai Li commanded.
"Yes!" The Daluo God Middle Stage Level man immediately responded.
Then the man released his Daluo God Power, stabilizing the vessel.
Meanwhile, Bai Li mobilized her Daluo God Power and Daluo Heavenly Tao Power to begin pushing the divine ship out of the vortex.
Three days later, a divine ship encased within a gigantic bell flew out from the terrifying Thunderclap Storm.
Behind it, the terrifying Thunderclap Storm continued ravaging and expanding.
Fortunately, through her own power, Bai Li spent three days forcefully pulling the divine ship out of the storm.
Bai Li collapsed directly onto the deck, her face haggard.
Clearly, pulling the divine ship from this horrifying Thunderclap Storm consumed a great deal from her.
"We made it out." The three Daluo God Level experts were overjoyed.
But seeing the weakened Bai Li, they hurried forward to inquire.
"I’m fine, just overconsumed; a little rest and I’ll be alright. This Divine Thunder Storm is somewhat peculiar. You all control the divine ship to leave here quickly." Bai Li said with a frown.
"Alright!" The middle-aged man named Li Mu responded immediately.
Then he controlled the divine ship to depart.
The divine ship swiftly traversed, and Xu Nian looked back at the Thunderclap Storm behind them, feeling a foreboding.
Just as Xu Nian and they left, two figures suddenly appeared out of thin air.
Standing at the edge of the Divine Thunder Storm, these two watched the departing divine ship, a slight sneer on their faces.
"They actually escaped, seems Bai Li’s strength is truly terrifying." One Daluo God Later Stage Expert with scales on his head said.
"Indeed very strong. To be able to pull the divine ship from this Divine Thunder Storm, her strength has definitely reached the Daluo God Limit, and her level of enlightenment has likely reached the Daluo Heavenly Tao Ninth Level." Another gigantic Daluo God expert said.
"Daluo Heavenly Tao Ninth Level, too terrifying. Luckily, you held me back earlier, preventing me from going up. Even if she is weak now, she can likely slay the two of us." The later-stage Daluo God Expert with scales covering his forehead said.
"Hmph, we’re only responsible for the first ambush; if we can’t stop them, it’s entirely because the opponent’s strength is too overwhelming. We don’t need to risk our lives. We’ll leave it to those guys to handle." The giant man said with a sneer.
"Right, those guys constantly look down on us. This time we’ll let them deal with this tough nut. We’re just responsible for creating this Divine Thunder Storm." The scaled Daluo God expert said with a wicked smile.
The two shared a glance and then disappeared from the spot.
...
Meanwhile, aboard the divine ship where Xu Nian and they were, Bai Li had just taken a Divine Pill, her Daluo God Power greatly restored.
"Did any of you sense anything odd?" Bai Li looked around and asked.
"This time, the Divine Thunder Storm seemed peculiar. Generally speaking, Divine Thunder Storms mostly appear on vast oceans and are rare on land. Normally, the sudden emergence of Divine Thunder Storms is due to violent chaos amongst Heaven and Earth Wind Attribute Elements and Thunder Attribute Elements, and such unrest usually has signs. But before, we sensed nothing unusual with the Wind Attribute Elements." Said the Daluo God Middle Stage expert named Li Mu.
"Correct, I didn’t sense any anomaly with the Thunder Element either." Another elder Daluo God said.
He cultivated the Thunder Attribute Daluo God’s Tao.
Bai Li nodded; she had noticed this as well.
Though she cultivated the Light Attribute, Heaven and Earth Elements influence one another.
If the Wind and Thunder Attributes were to become chaotic, then Light Attribute Elements would also be affected.
"Could it be that this Divine Thunder Storm is occurring on land and hence is special?" The God Youth beside them said.
Several other Daluo Gods nodded, considering it a possibility.
Bai Li remained silent.
"The Divine Thunder Storm was artificially created."
However, at this moment, Xu Nian suddenly spoke.
"Artificially created? Why do you say so? Who could invoke such a terrifying Divine Thunder Storm?" The youth immediately retorted.
"To invoke such a terrifying Divine Thunder Storm, one would need the strength of God King Level, right? To kill us, someone of such a level wouldn’t need to set such a trap." The man named Li Mu said.
"Elder Li Mu, don’t listen to his nonsense; he didn’t even know what a Divine Thunder Storm was before." The youth immediately snorted, dismissively.
"Although I don’t know how Divine Thunder Storms are formed, I can feel that this one was indeed artificially created." Xu Nian said resolutely.
The other Daluo God strong people heard this and furrowed their brows.
Feeling?
Can such a matter be judged by feeling?
"Divine Thunder Storms don’t necessarily need God King Level experts to create; don’t forget about a divine artifact called the Divine Storm Banner, specifically used to create such Divine Thunder Storms for attacks. And to activate such an artifact only requires a Daluo God Level expert. Tell us why you think it’s artificial." Bai Li spoke.
"Divine Storm Banner? This divine artifact has vanished, hasn’t it?" Li Mu and others immediately said in surprise.
Was it truly artificial?
All at once, everyone turned to Xu Nian.
