Chapter 351: Incomplete Holy King, Perfect Void Self Realm!
“Report to the Family Head, the elders of the Mountain Ghost Clan and the rulers of the Xuanwu Clan have agreed to our request.”
In the conference hall of the Li Family in Central Continent, a guard knelt on one knee, an expression of joy on his face.
“What did you say? They agreed just like that!”
Li Congxin suddenly jumped up, his face filled with disbelief.
The simplicity of this matter exceeded his expectations. He thought it would involve many twists and turns, but it turned out to be so easy.
“Did they propose any harsh conditions?”
Li Congxin hurriedly asked.
“They did not; they are even willing to join for free!” the Li Family guard said with a smile.
“How can that be possible?”
This time, Li Congxin immediately became alert. There is no hatred without a reason in this world, and naturally, there would be no affection without a reason.
He still had some awareness of his own position; after all, he wasn’t a spiritual stone, and it was impossible for him to win everyone’s favor.
“I also find it a bit strange. They initially disagreed, but once they heard about the enemies we are dealing with, they became extremely excited, as if they had been pumped up with adrenaline, all eager to join us!”
Upon hearing this, Li Congxin suddenly had a realization!
“So that’s it; they are all enemies of that brat! Hahaha, truly, those who are righteous have more help; those who are unrighteous have fewer helpers!”
The head of the Li Family jumped up directly, feeling as excited as a monkey, circling around in the hall.
“Truly, good fortune comes with no effort! Have the rulers of those two clans arrived?”
“They are waiting outside!”
“Quickly, invite them in!”
A moment later, the door of the Li Family conference hall suddenly opened.
A total of three people entered: a maiden, a middle-aged man, and an elderly man.
Seeing this, Li Congxin went forward to meet them.
“Having the three of you visit here truly brings glory to our clan. I am Li Congxin, the Family Head of the Li Family. May I ask how to address these esteemed guests?”
“I am Ye Xingchen, the head of the Xuanwu Clan!”
The middle-aged man said humbly, his gaze lowered, then cautiously introduced the maiden behind him.
“I am Lan Tian, his daughter!”
The maiden held a spear, her expression emotionless, staring intently at Ye Xingchen’s neck, making him shudder a bit; he also tightened his grip on the jade clock in his hand.
“I am one of the heads of the Mountain Ghost Clan; you can call me Yao Hai!”
The elder said in a plain voice, his face covered in wrinkles, making it nearly impossible to see his eyes.
However, no one noticed that this seemingly elderly man had an astonishing spark in his eyes.
Since the girl of the Mountain Ghost Clan was honored with the name Yao Xian by the Holy King, the entire Mountain Ghost Clan adopted Yao as their surname. Given the mysterious aura exuding from this elder, it could be concluded that his mastery of the laws far exceeded that of Yao Xian.
“The Mountain Ghost Clan…”
Li Congxin said in a trembling voice, forcibly suppressing his urge to worship.
This clan has always been powerful and mysterious, having once served the Divine Race, then later becoming independent and living in seclusion. Numerous powerful factions had tried to invite them to join, only to be rejected in the end.
And those who tried to use force against them had all disappeared, showcasing the ferocity of this clan.
Now, being able to invite the Mountain Ghost Clan with just a word gave him great prestige.
“I am a straightforward person and do not like beating around the bush.”
Yao Hai directly stated, “If you want to ally with us, you must demonstrate your value. That boy is not simple; if you say you can take him down, you must provide evidence!”
Upon hearing this, Li Congxin felt a surge of respect. This old man’s straightforwardness indicated that he would be a reliable ally.
“Old gentleman, you have hit the nail on the head! To tell you the truth, our Li Family is already positioned firmly, able to attack or defend, capable of crushing them from all angles!”
“On what basis do you say that?”
Yao Hai seemed to come alive; around him, the power of the laws surged and trembled, creating a heart-pounding atmosphere!
“So strong!”
Li Congxin couldn’t help but feel astonished, and the more so, the happier he became.
“Since we are allies, I won’t hide it from you.”
He gently stepped on the ground and then asked, “Do you know the origin of the land beneath my feet?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingchen paused slightly; he really had never considered this matter.
It is well known that the Li Family is built on a floating island, and this island moves slowly with the Li Family, making it quite a uniqueness among forces in Central Continent.
“This island is pure and untainted, similar to the inner world of a Semi-Sage’s heart; it should be considered a Pure Land!” Yao Hai asserted.
“Well said! You see the essence immediately. However, this is not enough to characterize the island’s power. Please follow me!”
Li Congxin said proudly, enthusiastically leading the three to a secret chamber.
This secret chamber was heavily guarded, with the Li Family’s strong warriors surrounding it in layers, showing that this was definitely a crucial place for the Li Family.
“Open the door and let us in.”
Li Congxin commanded.
“At your command, Family Head!”
Ten guards simultaneously inserted their personal keys into ten locks, twisting them to open the large door of the secret chamber.
Just the door itself was of Sacred Artifact-level existence; even without guards, it was not something ordinary powerful beings could cross.
With a creak, the door opened, immediately releasing a aura surpassing that of a Sage.
“This is…”
Upon entering the secret chamber, Yao Hai couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
In the center of the secret chamber lay a human figure — no, perhaps that was a living person, sealed by divine source.
The figure had no limbs, no ears or nose, and tightly closed eyes, but it emanated an exceedingly powerful aura.
A Holy King-level powerhouse!
The elder murmured in astonishment.
“Moreover, this person is a master of the Void Self Realm from the Six Realms of Becoming Emperor!”
“No way!”
Upon hearing this, even Ye Xingchen broke into disbelief. The so-called Six Realms of Becoming Emperor requires one to first cultivate their spiritual power to at least the Semi-Emperor level to attempt a breakthrough, and a Holy King powerhouse is far from being qualified.
“Don’t disbelieve! There are always some exceptionally gifted existences in this world who can break certain limits, and the Holy King before you is such an existence.”
“Even so, this is somewhat childish, isn’t it?”
Yao Hai immediately responded, “The Void Self Realm can pierce through past, present, and future, granting blessings and avoiding disasters; how could it end up like this?”
“How do you know this isn’t intentional on the part of the Holy King? Perhaps he has his own deep meanings for doing so.”
Li Congxin smiled, flipping his palm, revealing a heart sealed by divine source — the heart of a Holy King powerhouse.
“What do you mean?”
“Don’t be nervous. In fact, this Pure Land is transformed from the body of the Holy King. When our Li Family established its clan here, it made a pact with the Holy King.”
“The pact states that whenever the Li Family faces a life-and-death crisis, we can use this heart to awaken the Holy King, causing him to open his eyes and unleash the power of the Holy King to block or bury invaders. Now, we are left with only one final opportunity!”
Upon hearing this, Yao Hai squinted his eyes.
“Since it’s a pact, what conditions did you use to exchange for the Holy King’s protection?”
