Chapter 143: The First Wisp of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy

Around 5 p.m., the Dark Mist in the Black Pit let out a piercing scream. It rushed out proudly, shooting up thousands of meters into the sky, and then spread out in all directions like a huge mushroom.

This spreading speed was much faster, and in the blink of an eye, the entire sky was covered.

Countless Mist Demons waved their claws and teeth inside, constantly taunting, charging, and mocking Li Si.

Yes, Li Si could clearly sense that deep inside the Black Pit, a gaze was watching him. Meanwhile, the mark left by the Lord of the Mist on his body seemed to come alive as well.

Within moments, at least 100,000 Mist Demons, Greater Mist Demons, and some undetectable things gathered around Li Si.

“You were targeted by a Fate-Eater. You were judged to lose one year of lifespan. Due to your status as a Righteous God of Heaven and Earth, this judgment was greatly negated. You lost one day of lifespan.”

“You were targeted by a Fate-Eater. You were judged to lose one year of lifespan. Due to your…”

Suddenly, a series of messages appeared as if flooding the screen. In just a short moment, Li Si lost several hundred days of lifespan. This meant at least several hundred Fate-Eaters had surrounded him.

Although he now possessed four Nascent Souls and theoretically had a lifespan exceeding 4,000 years, this kind of attack that ignored his Clear Heart Spell, Disaster Dispelling Spell, and various other defensive Buffs, and even disregarded his luck protection, was truly terrifying.

What was worse, not even a bit of pollution was generated during this process.

Li Si watched quietly and raised his hand to cast a [Soul-Searching Curse], covering a radius of 100 li. Any malicious soul within this range targeting him would inevitably be caught.

With one cast, about 150,000 Mist Demons and Greater Mist Demons were captured. Li Si raised his hand again and cast a [Demon Exorcism Spell]. Instantly, 108 huge fire dragons descended, their blazing flames lighting up the night sky for hundreds of li.

Whether Mist Demons, Greater Mist Demons, or the Dark Mist in this area, all were incinerated to nothing within seconds.

This [Demon Exorcism Spell] was developed by continuously improving and deducing the common Dao Technique [Demon Slaying Thorn]. It belonged to a Primal Divine Ability that could only be released in the Nascent Soul Realm. This ability was not very complex; its only characteristic was forming the most rigid and most yang Demon Exorcism Flames, capable of burning everything to ashes.

Moreover, due to its poor accuracy, it was only suitable for large-scale, indiscriminate area attacks.

However, it had long been proven that Dark Mist and Mist Demons were most suitable to be hunted using the Demon Slaying Thorn, which even surpassed the Palm Thunder.

Because Palm Thunder could only eliminate Mist Demons, but its effectiveness in clearing Dark Mist was not as good.

Even the Divine Heaven Thunder Control Technique could not compare in terms of cost-effectiveness.

With one Primal Divine Ability, everything within a radius of 100 li was wiped out, incidentally bringing Li Si about five million portions of Black Fate Fuel. His pocket money wallet was full again.

But Li Si frowned slightly because the list of what he just hunted did not include the Fate-Eaters.

These things were somewhat bizarre; they could actually attack from an ultra-long range.

Li Si glanced again; he had now lost three years of lifespan. It didn’t matter; let them come.

Instantly, he teleported 100 li away, first casting a [Soul-Searching Curse] to capture all the Mist Demons within a radius of 100 li, then followed with a [Demon Exorcism Spell] to burn everything to ashes.

Without waiting for the flames to extinguish, he teleported to the next location. Like sweeping the floor, he was neither rushed nor impatient, neither hot nor cold. No matter how they tried to hasten his death, he just kept clearing the Dark Mist.

Within just a few minutes, Li Si lost about 30 years of lifespan, but within a radius of a thousand li around the entire Black Pit, the Dark Mist and the Mist Demons inside had all been incinerated.

Let’s play!

Inside Eastflow City, suddenly several hundred people grew old and died in their sleep!

The other side was probably angered.

Li Si remained unmoved. Relying on his teleportation ability and unlimited Magic Power, he could clear a radius of 100 li in one second. Another minute passed, and the Dark Mist within a radius of 2,000 li was all burned away.

The death toll in Eastflow City had already reached a thousand.

Even though Li Si’s face was ashen, his movements did not slow at all. He continued to output madly until there was no more Dark Mist within the 3,000 li radius covered by the Yunhua Law Seal.

At this time, there were no more Fate-Eaters around him.

Because—

“Eliminated Fate-Eater ×41, obtained 41,000 portions of White Fate Firewood, obtained 41 pages of a forged Book of Life and Death.”

“Eliminated Fate-Eater ×63, obtained 63,000 portions of White Fate Firewood, obtained 63 pages of a forged Book of Life and Death.”

—

Yes, in this Mortal Realm, it was impossible for something to exist that could interfere with the Mortal Realm yet not exist itself. Even the Evil Spirits in the Illusory Realm would leave traces.

These Fate-Eaters could hide hundreds of li away to attack. The Dark Mist was their best cover, and their speed in the Dark Mist was extremely fast, easily flying a hundred li in an instant. No wonder even the Wish-Fulfilling Pearl couldn’t lock onto them, as the maximum detection radius of the Wish-Fulfilling Pearl was only 100 li.

So when Li Si, like a barber, shaved off the Dark Mist piece by piece, not giving the Dark Mist surging out of the Black Pit a chance to connect, it only took a few minutes to successfully eliminate this batch of Fate-Eaters.

Under the Demon Exorcism Flames, they were nothing special.

But the death toll in Eastflow City had already exceeded 3,000 people.

This was mutual destruction.

But this kind of situation really had no solution. Gritting his teeth, Li Si charged forward and continued to hunt the Dark Mist surging out of the Black Pit. He didn’t know why this Dark Mist had to come out every night, but there must be a reason.

So, I will just not let your Dark Mist come out. If you have the ability, stay inside the Black Pit.

A cold, eerie laughter came from somewhere. The mark left by the Lord of the Mist on Li Si’s shoulder was frantically biting. This time, seeing that threatening Eastflow City was useless, all the Fate-Eaters concentrated on Li Si. On average, he lost 500 days of lifespan every second, and this number was still increasing!

Madness, utter madness!

From the Black Pit, a thick black liquid erupted like volcanic magma. A terrifying roar came from deep underground. The Dark Mist exploded like large mushrooms, filling the sky and earth at any cost.

The ground was covered in black liquid up to the knees. So much Dark Mist, all to ensure one thing: that the Fate-Eaters could have faster moving and dodging space.

Almost as soon as Li Si cleared a space of 100 li in radius, in less than two seconds, the space was filled with Dark Mist again.

By this time, the number of Fate-Eaters had increased to 2,000, meaning that if Li Si couldn’t clear all the Dark Mist in an instant, couldn’t eliminate all the Fate-Eaters at once, he would lose 2,000 days of lifespan every second.

This was still with the immunity and negation from his position as a Righteous God of Heaven and Earth. Otherwise, if it were anyone else, even a True Immortal probably couldn’t withstand such lifespan consumption.

But, at this very moment, Li Si suddenly stopped teleporting. He looked up at the dark sky, stretched out a single hand as if praying for something, completely disregarding the current loss of over 3,000 days of lifespan per second.

Three seconds later, he grabbed a small flame from the sky. It was very ordinary, very common, even the kind that could be extinguished with a single blow.

But Li Si just held it in his hands, gave a gentle blow, and a strange, mysterious, powerful, and unfathomable rune with flames erupted. This rune soared up 9,000 zhang, exploded, and turned into thousands of small sparks, falling with a vast, heavy aura.

At this moment, scenes of illusions appeared. There was the vastness of heaven and earth, wildfires in forests, and Human Race ancestors drilling wood to make fire. These illusions looked simple but carried immense majesty, as if the entire heaven and earth were pressing down.

“Boom!”

Within heaven and earth, for a radius of 3,000 li, there was a sea of fire. Not only did it instantly burn away all the Dark Mist, but it also eliminated all the Fate-Eaters. It even incinerated the flesh cloud mass in the sky to Gray Ashes. Moreover, the flames spread in all directions, ultimately ensuring that within a radius of 10,000 li, no Blood Cloud remained.

The canopy belonging to this world finally reappeared. A wisp of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy quietly emerged from the location of the Yunhua Sect’s base, the Yunhua Law Seal. It was like a clear spring; although small, it could ultimately bring a bit of the most precious green to this world. It was hope.

In the face of such immense heavenly and earthly power, the roar from the Black Pit was reduced to only a desperate howl.

Li Si had ambitious plans.

Because what he had just ignited was the Flame of Fate.

Using the Jiuxuan Spirit Sword Sect’s [Jiuxuan Spell], he first summoned the Primal Flame, then used Fate as fuel, burning it all at once to bring clarity to heaven and earth!

The Dark Mist, the Black Pit, the Fate-Eaters, and such were just catalysts.

After all, he was burning Fate. If he got tricked by some scheming person, he would definitely cry his way home.

For this plan, he not only emptied his pocket money wallet, private savings wallet, and marriage fund wallet all at once, but also invested 500 portions of Golden Qi Luck Firewood from his fixed assets.

Now, besides the 1,000 portions of Golden Qi Luck Firewood in his hands, he was truly broke, not a single penny left.

But such a large-scale investment had an excellent effect.

It even eventually drew in the Fortune of Heaven and Earth, hence the situation where the Blood Cloud within a radius of 10,000 li was completely burned away.

Most importantly, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy reappeared!

This merit was worthy of the identity of the Calamity-Bearing Human King.

But this was not the time to be proud. With a single thought from Li Si, the Yunhua Law Seal appeared. The next second, he teleported beneath the Black Pit. At this moment, the sense of shock and fear the Black Pit gave him had decreased by at least half. This was exactly the feeling he wanted.

There was nothing more to say. The Yunhua Law Seal first delivered a wave of suppression. Then came exactly ten rounds of the Divine Heaven Thunder Control Technique, followed by one hundred rounds of the Demon Exorcism Spell, and finally one thousand enhanced versions of the Golden Radiance Chant. No matter who you are, here I have plenty to offer, so eat your fill first!

From beginning to end, relying on the suppression of the Yunhua Law Seal, taking advantage of the enemy’s heavy losses, and relying on his own unlimited Magic Power and unlimited Soul Power, Li Si tormented the Black Pit for several hours. Only when the sky brightened, sunlight shone everywhere, and everything was renewed, did the messages appear, and he stopped.

“Suppressed and killed a Ghost King of Fate-Eaters, obtained one volume of a forged Book of Life and Death, obtained 1,000 portions of Blue Fate Firewood, obtained 3,000 years of lifespan!”

“Warning: You have gained the strong friendship of the Lord of the Mist.”

“Warning: Your friend Giant Mushroom has received your gift.”

“Warning: Your friend Giant Mushroom has fallen into the Mist and is now out of contact.”
