As they continued descending, Lu Bai could clearly sense a strange power within the surrounding river water surging toward them from all directions.
However, upon coming into contact with the eight colored spiritual light emitted by the light wheel beneath their feet, these powers were stubbornly blocked outside.
"Oh?"
The Martial Ancestor let out a slight sound of surprise.
"Senior?"
Lu Bai looked over in confusion.
"Hehe, it is nothing. This Luo River is indeed as wondrous as the legends say." Lin Dong smiled lightly.
At that very instant just now, he had discovered that within the Luo River existed a faint purifying power that was eroding the surrounding spiritual energy.
Although this power seemed weak, its essence was extremely formidable. Perhaps only Heaven Sovereign level experts could resist it.
"It is said that the Luo God was the purest person in this world, and her power could purify all things. It seems the rumors were true."
Hearing Lin Dong's words, Lu Bai's heart stirred. This was the first time he had heard information regarding the Luo God's powers. Previously, he had only known that she was the number one beauty of the Great Thousand World and also one of the strongest peak experts.
"Senior, can you tell me more about this Luo God?"
After pondering for a moment, Lu Bai asked.
Lin Dong smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "Why not? However, this Luo God was someone from tens of thousands of years ago. What I know is also limited."
"During that great war back then, the Luo God fought against two top Heavenly Demon Emperors of the Feind Race by herself. Her strength was absolutely among the top five in the Great Thousand World at that time."
"And the reason for this was precisely because of the special power she possessed."
"You should also know that the demonic energy of those Feind tribes possesses extremely strong corrosive and erosive abilities, so it has a considerable suppressive effect against the spiritual energy of the Great Thousand World."
Lu Bai also nodded in agreement.
If this were not the case, then with the number of experts the Great Thousand World possessed back then, how could those fellows possibly have seized half of its territory?
"However, this only applies to most experts of the Great Thousand World. If one truly reaches the Saint Grade realm, this weakness becomes much smaller. The main reason is because experts who reach that level already possess within their spiritual energy a certain most powerful and most fundamental force of the Great Thousand World!"
Lu Bai frowned slightly, though this was actually easy to understand.
For example, the Flame Emperor Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flame Emperor Flame represented the ultimate flame power in the current Great Thousand World. Even the demonic power of Heavenly Demon Emperors could be directly burned and refined by it, so naturally there was no need to worry about being suppressed by demonic energy.
Likewise, Lin Dong's power was the same.
However, compared to Xiao Yan's ultimate Emperor Flame, Lin Dong controlled many more types of powers, and he could perfectly fuse them together. This was also the reason why he had been able to chase down and beat three Heaven Sovereigns immediately after adapting to the Great Thousand World.
At its core, it was the difference in the level of power!
"Then senior, what exactly was the essence of the Luo God's power?" Lu Bai asked somewhat urgently.
"A kind of ultimate purifying power!"
Lin Dong replied calmly.
Then he lightly waved his sleeve, and a trace of Luo River power passed through the protection of the light wheel and entered Lu Bai's body.
In an instant, Lu Bai's expression drastically changed!
Because he felt the spiritual energy within his body rapidly dissolving!
"This is erosion?"
Greatly alarmed inwardly, Lu Bai directly mobilized the Five Elements Spiritual Talisman within his body, only then barely suppressing this strange strand of power.
"No, it is purification!" Lin Dong said calmly. "Ultimate purification power..."
Taking a deep breath, Lu Bai suppressed the shock in his heart.
"Ultimate purification..."
It could even purify his Five Elements spiritual energy. If such terrifying power could be used by him, then would it not mean he could casually purify away an expert's cultivation!
"However, wanting to control such power is definitely not a simple matter!"
Thinking this, Lu Bai directly sat cross legged, his mind sinking into his Spiritual Soul. Using the Five Elements Spiritual Disk together with the Five Elements Spiritual Talisman, he began researching exactly how to control this power.
Watching Lu Bai's reaction, Lin Dong smiled faintly.
He was not in a hurry. After all, he was merely a spiritual energy avatar. Moreover, he himself was also very interested in whether Lu Bai could control a power beyond his own level.
Time slowly passed by.
Meanwhile, outside in the Luo God Clan, Mandala stood by the rushing Luo River, her heart filled with worry.
"You are still worried about the Palace Master?"
Ling Xi's figure appeared behind her as her calm voice sounded out.
Mandala's little face was filled with seriousness. Without turning around, she replied in a deep voice, "Luo Tian Shen said before that this Luo River is extremely dangerous. Countless Earth Sovereign experts have fallen within it. Even Heaven Sovereign experts cannot explore what exactly lies at the bottom of the Luo River..."
"The Palace Master is extremely powerful. Nothing will happen to him. Besides, the Martial Ancestor is there protecting him as well." Ling Xi comforted her softly.
Mandala nodded. If not for that, she definitely would not have agreed to Lu Bai's reckless decision.
"How is Mu Chen? Is he still cultivating?" Mandala did not continue the topic and instead asked.
Although the current Mu Chen was not as powerful as he had been in the original story, the Luo God Clan had gradually accepted him as the husband of their Empress.
Moreover, the Luo God Clan's situation was currently not very good. Before Luo Li fully matured, they still needed external support to help them overcome their difficulties. Mu Chen and the Five Elements Divine Palace behind him were perfectly suitable.
There was no helping it. After all, Lu Bai, the Palace Master of the Five Elements Divine Palace, could summon an expert like the Martial Ancestor at a moment's notice. Had they not seen even the Western Heaven Battle Emperor forced to soften his stance?
After hearing Mandala's question, Ling Xi looked toward the depths of the Luo God Clan.
"Yes. Luo Li is with him."
Mu Chen's own spiritual energy cultivation had already reached the limit of Ninth Grade Sovereign. Furthermore, he possessed the inheritance left behind by the Heavenly Emperor. He only needed a single opportunity to cross that threshold and advance into the Earth Sovereign realm!
Just as the two women were speaking, suddenly, a wave of pressure instantly swept across the entire Luo God Clan.
"This is..."
The two women exchanged glances and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"A Spiritual Tribulation?! Someone is breaking through to Earth Sovereign?" A look of astonishment appeared on Mandala's exquisite little face.
"It is Mu Chen!" Sensing the familiar spiritual energy aura within that pressure, joy flashed through Ling Xi's beautiful eyes.
Unexpectedly, Mu Chen was actually breaking through to the Earth Sovereign realm at this moment!
"Come, let us go take a look!"
As her voice fell, Mandala waved her hand and swept Ling Xi along. In the next instant, they had already appeared atop a mountain peak in the back mountains of the Luo God Clan.
At the same time, quite a number of Luo God Clan experts also hurried over one after another. Luo Tian Shen had likewise already learned from his granddaughter that the one breaking through to Earth Sovereign this time was precisely Mu Chen!
At this moment, a trace of complexity flashed through Luo Tian Shen's eyes. Back at the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, how could he ever have imagined that the boy he once regarded as no different from an ant would possess such talent?
"It seems I truly was blind..."
Then looking at the undisguised joy upon Luo Li's exquisite face, he realized it had already been a very long time since he had seen his granddaughter this happy.
Letting out a deep sigh, Luo Tian Shen adjusted his emotions before becoming happy as well.
"Hehe, little Luo Li, from now on the Luo God Clan will truly have to rely on you..."
However, upon seeing his treasured granddaughter immediately ignore him, her grandfather, and run over toward Ling Xi to share her joy the moment she saw her figure, all of Luo Tian Shen's previous emotions instantly disappeared.
"A daughter married off is water poured away indeed!"
Mu Chen's Spiritual Tribulation was not particularly dangerous because Spiritual Tribulations mainly targeted the Sovereign Celestial Body.
And the stronger the Celestial Body, the greater the chance of passing the Spiritual Tribulation. With the power of the Immortal Golden Body, passing the Spiritual Tribulation was not an issue.
As time gradually approached, the entire Western Heaven Continent slowly showed signs of boiling excitement. And the source of all discussion pointed toward the same matter, which was the upcoming battle for the Western Heaven Continent's "Seed of the Continent."
In a certain sense, this could be considered the grandest event on the Western Heaven Continent in hundreds of years.
The reason why various top tier forces chose to submit under the Western Heaven Battle Hall, and why those top experts renowned throughout the land chose to join the Western Heaven Battle Hall, aside from seeking its protection, was mainly because they sought the qualification to compete for the "Seed of the Continent" of the Western Heaven Continent!
At this very moment, in the central region of Western Heaven Battle City, there stood clusters of magnificent palaces. The palaces were situated atop towering mountains, from where the entire city could be viewed at a glance.
And this cluster of palaces was naturally where the Western Heaven Battle Hall resided.
Within a majestic and imposing grand hall at the center of the Western Heaven Battle Hall, silence filled the air as four figures respectfully knelt on one knee.
Upon the throne above the great hall sat a figure casually reclining, but the vast pressure emanating from his body caused the four figures below to not even dare raise their heads.
This imposing and vast figure was naturally the Western Heaven Battle Emperor. His eyes were slightly closed as though resting, and although the four people below also possessed lofty status within the Western Heaven Battle Hall, none of them dared make a sound to disturb him.
"Ling Zhanzi, Ling Jianzi, Ling Longzi..."
After silence persisted for a long while, the Western Heaven Battle Emperor finally slowly opened his eyes. His calm voice carried authority as it echoed through the great hall.
"This disciple is present!"
Three of the four figures below immediately raised their heads and respectfully answered.
The first among the three was a man dressed in black robes. His appearance was exceedingly ordinary and entirely unremarkable, but within his eyes there constantly burned blazing flames of battle intent.
That feeling was as though beneath that inconspicuous appearance hid a beast filled with endless battle intent, causing others to feel bone piercing danger.
Behind him stood a handsome man carrying a three foot green edged sword upon his back. This man possessed a slender body, star like eyes, and sword shaped brows. From head to toe he emitted an incomparably sharp sword intent. The feeling was like an unparalleled divine sword unsheathed, one whose blade could sever all things in the world with a single strike.
Behind the two stood a towering and robust figure. He resembled an iron tower, and the shadow formed by his body completely covered the two men in front. Across the surface of his body seemed to be layers of dense dragon scales, while faintly, violent dragon roars filled with brutality echoed from within his body, making him appear like an unparalleled ferocious dragon.
And these three were precisely three of the current Four Saint Children of the Western Heaven Battle Hall, all possessing illustrious reputations throughout the entire Western Heaven Continent.
"I do not care which of you laughs last. I only wish to tell you that the Greater Earth Sovereign battlefield's slot can only fall into the hands of our Western Heaven Battle Hall."
"Do you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Ling Zhanzi, Ling Jianzi, and Ling Longzi all heavily nodded.
Although the three of them belonged to the very top tier among Greater Earth Sovereigns, this time they would be facing experts of the same realm from the entire Western Heaven Continent. The Battle Emperor did not wish for any accidents to occur.
Shifting his gaze, the Western Heaven Battle Emperor looked toward the last of the Four Saint Children.
"Ling Feizi, this time when you participate in the Lesser Earth Sovereign battlefield, you must also strive your utmost."
Unexpectedly, the last among the Four Saint Children was actually a woman of extraordinary beauty.
Her delicate body was exquisitely curvaceous with extremely alluring lines. Especially at the corner of her phoenix eyes, a tear mole stood out prominently, adding an additional trace of seductive charm to her appearance, making her a truly peerless beauty.
Ling Feizi raised her charming and beautiful face. Her bright eyes looked toward the Battle Emperor, deep within which there existed a trace of admiration. Then she softly said, "Please rest assured, Hall Master. Ling Feizi will definitely seize the Seed of the Continent slot in the Lesser Earth Sovereign battlefield."
Compared to the previous three, Ling Feizi, as a Saintess, was essentially part of the Western Heaven Battle Emperor's future harem!
This was also why Luo Li had rejected Elder Winter without the slightest hesitation back then.
The Western Heaven Battle Emperor smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "Originally, with your strength, you should have easily claimed victory in the Lesser Earth Sovereign battlefield. However, now there are some new variables. Luo Li has cultivated the Luo God Celestial Body, and she absolutely cannot be underestimated."
The Luo God Clan also belonged to the Western Heaven Continent, so as the Empress, Luo Li naturally qualified to participate in this battle.
In this regard, the Battle Emperor had not deliberately made things difficult either. Otherwise, it would make his magnanimity appear far too narrow.
Hearing this, jealousy flashed through Ling Feizi's beautiful eyes.
After all, she had also heard about what happened in the Lesser West Heaven Realm back then. The Battle Emperor had clearly regarded Luo Li very highly, which made Ling Feizi somewhat jealous.
But what angered her even more was that the latter had actually dared to refuse!
Having already made up her mind to properly teach that woman a lesson in the upcoming battle, Ling Feizi lightly nodded her head and said, "This disciple understands."
The Western Heaven Battle Emperor nodded, instructed the four for a few more moments, and only then dismissed them.
In the end, Mandala still did not wait for Lu Bai to emerge from the Luo River, yet the time for the battle had already arrived. Ultimately, she departed together with the Luo God Clan members as well as Mu Chen and his sister toward Western Heaven Battle City.
Mandala attached tremendous importance to this opportunity that Lu Bai had painstakingly secured.
