Chapter 566: Elder Hundred Flowers, Prepare to Meet the Enemy!
After settling his battle merit, Lian Yuezhou summoned a lotus pedestal out of thin air. With a light tap of her toes, she leaped and landed gracefully upon it.
"Fenger, do not disturb your Master this time!"
After giving her instructions, Lian Yuezhou sat cross-legged and began her preparations for Undergoing Tribulation and her Breakthrough.
The Freedom Seizing Spirit Secret Technique could save her a significant amount of time, allowing her to adjust to her peak state at the fastest speed before facing her Heavenly Tribulation.
Li Xuanfeng moved, transforming into a streak of light as he flew to a nearby planet, where he also began to sit cross-legged in meditation.
Since Lian Yuezhou was preparing for a Breakthrough, he naturally had to prepare for one as well. However, while Lian Yuezhou was breaking through her cultivation Realm, he was breaking through with his Physical Body.
The Freedom Seizing Spirit Secret Technique worked non-stop to help him refine the true phoenix undying medicine. He was not far from elevating his chaos golden bone to the seventh stage. As long as Li Xuanfeng exerted this Secret Art with all his might, he would likely complete his physical transformation before Lian Yuezhou became a Saint King.
His Soul strength had long since exceeded the limits of the Saint King Realm. He relied entirely on the Great Dream Reincarnation Art to deceive the Heavenly Dao's perception and delay the arrival of his Heavenly Tribulation. If his chaos golden bone completed its Breakthrough, his physical strength would also break through the limits of the Saint King Realm.
Finally, with the feedback from Lian Yuezhou's Breakthrough, Li Xuanfeng's cultivation would also break through his Realm's limits. With all three aspects breaking their limits simultaneously, the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation would surely be unable to be suppressed any longer. He could then take the opportunity to cross the Heavenly Tribulation and leap into the Great Sage Realm.
"Master is indeed taking a certain risk by using herself as bait, but she won't fall into a desperate situation. On the other hand, the Hundred Flowers Great Sage might have to make some degree of sacrifice."
Li Xuanfeng glanced at Lian Yuezhou, then looked toward the Hundred Flowers Great Sage in the distance before closing his eyes and thinking silently.
Checking his Fate through the System, his own was still a mass of Chaos. Lian Yuezhou’s golden light was mixed with a few streaks of gray, indicating she was at risk of injury. He didn't know if this was due to the tribulation or if there were foreign races capable of harming her.
As for the Hundred Flowers Great Sage, her entire body was shrouded in a dense gray glow, meaning she would be in considerable danger next, with a high probability of being heavily injured.
Li Xuanfeng didn't know exactly what would happen, but he could infer the general idea through the color of their Fate.
"Master should have made arrangements in advance, but what kind of situation could actually lead to her being injured?"
"Forget it, no matter what, as long as I can break through, I can likely resolve this crisis. It would be best if more foreign race experts came to boost my battle merit!"
Li Xuanfeng thought to himself.
He then exerted the Freedom Seizing Spirit Secret Technique with all his might, refining the true phoenix undying medicine at maximum speed.
Ever since learning that there were living God Kings among the foreign races, a hidden worry had grown in Li Xuanfeng's heart. He wasn't sure if a God King could interfere with the Heavenly Dao, thereby affecting his ability to use the System to view Fate colors and predict the future.
Foreign God Kings and the Emperors of the Canglan Realm were beings of the same Realm. Although he hadn't personally witnessed how strong such beings were, it wasn't hard to infer from legends and some images he had seen that the power of God Kings and Emperors was beyond imagination.
With the strength of a Saint, one could easily destroy a stellar-level star System; their maximum range of destruction could be measured in light-years.
A Saint King would be even better. With a full-power outburst, they could destroy more than a dozen, or even dozens of star Systems simultaneously. Among them, the top-tier ones could have a destruction range of dozens of light-years.
Upon reaching the Great Sage Realm, strength went up another level. A top-tier Great Sage like the Hundred Flowers Great Sage could have a combat range of several hundred light-years.
Of course, this was in the absence of various powerful Formation seals.
In the Endless Void, Cultivators were restricted in all aspects, which was why their displays of power weren't that exaggeratedly abnormal. Once they stepped into the cosmic starry sky, everyone from Saints to Great Sages possessed the ability to make entire star fields go completely dark and extinguished.
Upon reaching the Quasi-Emperor Realm, their strength would be even more terrifying. With the strength of a Quasi-Emperor, a full-power outburst was enough to destroy a large galaxy single-handedly.
Among them, the top-tier ones, such as Lian Yuezhou's main body—a Supreme Expert—could cause massive damage to supercluster galaxies if they used their power recklessly.
Yet even so, they couldn't do what Emperor Xuan did: with a wave of his hand, he grasped a star Realm ten thousand light-years in diameter and forcibly stuffed it into the corresponding Void backside of the Tianluo Continent.
The strength of Emperors and God Kings could likely overturn the entire Universe!
From the fact that an Emperor could isolate the Endless Void with a single sword strike, trapping all living beings of the Canglan Realm like a cage, one could get a glimpse of the strength of this Realm.
Therefore, if it was said that a God King could affect the Heavenly Dao and interfere with Li Xuanfeng's viewing of Fate color changes, preventing him from using this method to predict the future, he wouldn't find it strange.
However, if that were true, it would definitely not be good news for Li Xuanfeng. Using the observation of Fate color changes to seek good fortune and avoid disaster, allowing himself to circumvent the risk of death and fall in advance and avoid desperate situations, was Li Xuanfeng's greatest trump card.
As long as he could use the System to determine in advance that he wouldn't face a dead end, he could act as recklessly as he wanted within that range. But once this trump card failed, he would have to become extremely cautious in his actions.
"A foreign God King cannot descend into the Endless Void. For now, there is a high probability he cannot affect me."
Li Xuanfeng thought secretly.
The Fate colors just now indicated that Lian Yuezhou might be injured and the Hundred Flowers Great Sage would encounter great danger. Based on past experience, subsequent events would develop according to this prediction, provided there was no interference from a God King.
Li Xuanfeng felt that, for the time being, he shouldn't be affected by a God King. After all, the Endless Void was isolated by a single sword strike from an Emperor of the Canglan Realm. Foreign God Kings could not descend and could only continuously send in foreign experts, which showed they were already restricted.
Under such restrictions, a God King likely couldn't affect the Heavenly Dao, and the trump card of predicting the future by viewing Fate colors could still be used.
However, the existence of a God King still deepened Li Xuanfeng's hidden worries, and his desire to become stronger grew more urgent by the day.
Forcing himself to cast aside distracting thoughts, Li Xuanfeng immersed himself wholeheartedly in the process of refining the true phoenix undying medicine.
Pop! Pop! Pop!
One by one, delicate flowers of energy bloomed, their pollen scattering onto the Formation seals and then gradually seeping into them.
The Hundred Flowers Great Sage was still seizing the time to adjust the Formation, striving to bring out more of the array's power to construct a solid line of defense for Lian Yuezhou and Li Xuanfeng before their Breakthroughs.
On the lotus pedestal, Lian Yuezhou sat quietly with her eyes closed, her hands forming seals as her entire aura gradually became steady and restrained.
Time passed day by day.
One month.
Two months.
Three months.
For three whole months, no unusual fluctuations occurred around the Sui Xing Battlefield. This most important place in the Earth-Grade Void Battlefield seemed to have been forgotten by the foreign races.
The Hundred Flowers Great Sage had already adjusted the great array to the state most suitable for her to activate. However, the effect of Saint power was ultimately not as good as Divine Power, and she could not bring out the full power the Formation should have.
"I hope everything remains peaceful before the Palace Master undergoes her tribulation."
The Hundred Flowers Great Sage's gaze swept over Li Xuanfeng and then looked at the seated Lian Yuezhou as she thought silently.
The more peaceful these three months were, the more she felt an ominous premonition in her heart.
The news of Lian Yuezhou's secondary body being here had already spread. The foreign races couldn't possibly pass up this opportunity; even if it was a wasted trip, they would likely come and try.
Three months was enough time for foreign experts far from this place to make the trip.
"I wonder if he can break through first. With his strength, after breaking through, he can preside over the Formation with me and strengthen the defense."
The Hundred Flowers Great Sage's gaze shifted back to Li Xuanfeng.
She had witnessed Li Xuanfeng's Late-Stage Saint King strength, which had already surpassed her, the so-called number one Great Sage of the Eastern Profound Domain. If he joined forces with her to activate the Formation, they might even be able to hold out for a moment against a Quasi-Emperor.
"As long as he breaks through to the Late-Stage Saint King first, even if foreign experts descend, we can stall for a bit more time. Once the Palace Master passes her Heavenly Tribulation, the enemies will no longer be a threat."
The Hundred Flowers Great Sage thought silently as she looked at Li Xuanfeng.
Shortly after, she withdrew her gaze, her Divine Sense spreading out along the Formation, keeping a constant watch on movements in the Void.
Soon, another month passed.
The Sui Xing Battlefield remained eerily calm.
Buzz!
A majestic aura swept out, drawing the Hundred Flowers Great Sage's attention.
"Palace Master?"
The aura was emanating from Lian Yuezhou, incredibly majestic and pure, seemingly reaching a certain critical point.
"Elder Hundred Flowers!"
Lian Yuezhou opened her phoenix eyes on the lotus pedestal, her Divine Sense voice ringing in the Hundred Flowers Great Sage's mind.
"What is it, Palace Master?"
The Hundred Flowers Great Sage had a faint, uneasy feeling.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
Lian Yuezhou's expression was uncharacteristically serious.
