Chapter 178: Chapter 174: Incident Over, Inheritance Stone Tablet, Devouring Blade
Li Shang was, after all, a terrifying entity who had once stepped into the Third Realm. Even after dying once, the Mighty Power and strength he possessed were still absolutely horrifying.
After all.
Li Shang was a top-tier expert capable of suppressing all the powers in Moon River Prefecture City. The Vajra Daoist Soldier had only mastered one type of Sixth Level True Intent, and the Level 20 Clear Heart Wooden Fish was fundamentally still at the Second Realm. Even if it was exceptionally good at countering Heart Demons, it still had its limits.
So.
The Level 20 Clear Heart Wooden Fish reached its limit and developed cracks. Its Mighty Power was drastically reduced, making it completely impossible to suppress Li Shang any longer.
Of course.
At the time, Li Shang didn’t know the specifics of the situation, and the top experts of Moon River Prefecture City were also unaware of Xu Qing, so Xu Qing made a decisive retreat.
“Huuuh…”
Xu Qing took a deep breath, staring at the damaged Level 20 Clear Heart Wooden Fish in his hand as he fell into deep thought. ’If one Level 20 Clear Heart Wooden Fish isn’t enough, then I’ll get two. If two aren’t enough, then three…’
「Time flew by.」
「Three days later.」
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
Outside Moon River Prefecture City, a massive explosion erupted, like a nuclear blast. The nine-colored vortex in the Void outside the city detonated, producing an infinite radiance.
CRACK! CRACK!
Simultaneously.
A sound like a shattering mirror rang out. The very space in the sky above indeed resembled a cracked and fallen mirror, covered in fissures as it broke into innumerable shards.
Three days had passed.
The Reincarnation Ruins had always been a small pocket dimension; if the world at large was an immense pond, the Ruins were but a tiny bubble attached to its surface.
Now.
The bubble had shattered.
And its shattering created just such a scene.
“AHHH!!!”
“HELP!!!”
“NO!!!”
SPLAT!!!
Countless screams of agony rang out.
As the Reincarnation Ruins shattered, the things within its space—tracts of land, islands, deserts, monsters…—plummeted from the sky above.
All manner of things plummeted to the ground in a chaotic torrent.
Of course.
Everyone who had entered the Reincarnation Ruins was also severely affected. The destructive power generated by the shattering space was too terrifying. If one were caught up in it, even someone who had stepped into the Second Realm: Extraordinary would face certain death, with virtually no chance of survival.
WHOOSH!!!
Suddenly.
From among the countless fragments and falling debris, a streak of blood-red light shot forth with extreme speed and vanished into the Void.
In the blink of an eye.
It was gone.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!!!
Immediately after.
The top experts of Moon River Prefecture City appeared. They were all heavily injured, with several on the brink of death. Many more had already died—numerous experts had fallen, becoming fodder for Li Shang’s resurrection.
“He still got away.”
“Yeah!”
“As expected of the master of the Reincarnation Ruins. We simply couldn’t stop his resurrection. Once the Resurrection Ceremony started, it was impossible to halt. All the endless slaughter within the Reincarnation Ruins… every single being that died was transformed into the purest Origin and absorbed completely by him to become ’fodder’ for his resurrection.”
“That’s right.”
“Indeed.”
“If it weren’t for the appearance of that ’mysterious person’ at the critical moment, who used incredible means to suppress the Reincarnation Heart Demon and Li Shang’s power, giving us a chance to turn the tables, I’m afraid every single one of us here would have been devoured by Li Shang.”
“If that had really happened, Li Shang would have undoubtedly revived at full strength. It wouldn’t be like this, where he’s been resurrected but has lost the majority of his power. To return to his peak, he’ll need a great deal of time and a massive amount of resources.”
“Haaaah…”
Upon closer inspection.
One would notice that each of the surviving top experts from the various factions held a fragment of a blood-gold stone tablet. These fragments were covered in mysterious, blood-gold runes that pulsed with a flowing light, containing a Mighty Power that defied imagination.
This was the Inheritance Stone Tablet.
To be precise.
It was the Inheritance Stone Tablet that Li Shang had left within the Reincarnation Ruins. And it was authentic—a true inheritance that could lead one to the Third Realm.
The reason was very simple.
If Li Shang hadn’t produced a genuine Inheritance Stone Tablet, he never would have been able to lure in so many experts. Without that much fodder, he would not have had enough to activate the Resurrection Ceremony.
As the saying goes.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Sacrifice.
One must first give in order to receive.
Initially.
Li Shang’s plan was to use the genuine Inheritance Stone Tablet to lure countless beings into fighting over it, leading them step by step into his Resurrection Ceremony.
Finally.
Li Shang would devour them all, revive at full strength, and take back his Inheritance Stone Tablet.
At first.
Everything went according to Li Shang’s plan. That is, until Xu Qing appeared, shattering the balance and causing problems for the Resurrection Ceremony.
To reverse life and death and attempt resurrection is to invite all manner of tribulations. And Xu Qing was the greatest tribulation Li Shang would face.
In the end, Li Shang succeeded in resurrecting, but not at full strength. Having lost most of his power, he could only retreat from Moon River Prefecture City under the cover of his Heart Demon Puppets.
And so, the Reincarnation Ruins shattered completely.
Of course.
