Chapter 498: Chapter 369: Senior, Are You the Netherworld Ancestor?_1
The Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan was somewhat bewildered, himself a Divine Emperor, had he really been reduced to this state by a casual punch from Li Cheng?
The key point was that Li Cheng said he hadn't used his full strength!
And indeed, he had sensed that Li Cheng really hadn't used his full strength.
Is this truly the complete realm of the Divine Venerable?
With this move, the victor was instantly decided!
The Two Venerables of Young and Old watching the battle were even more astonished, they knew Li Cheng was only of the Divine Venerable Realm's complete cultivation, but his aura was much stronger than that of the usual powerhouses at the same level; however, they hadn't expected his combat strength to be so terrifying!
The two originally thought of temporarily holding off this Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan, allowing Li Cheng to go and retrieve the Book of Confucius, but it seemed completely unnecessary now.
"Could it be that I've refined a fake Divine Origin?" The Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan began to doubt.
He had stepped into the Divine Emperor's Realm after refining the Divine Origin, and even though he was only in the early stage of the Divine Emperor's Realm, he shouldn't have been shaken by someone at the complete stage of the Divine Venerable Realm.
"That's not right, that's not right, boy, you must have used some method left to you by a Divine Emperor, right? Is this your way of scaring me off?" The Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan suddenly thought of this possibility and scoffed.
"You're quite imaginative!" Li Cheng exclaimed in surprise, then stepped into the air, his robust Haoran Justice Air surging forth once more!
The Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan activated his Divine Power to withstand it, but under the Haoran Justice Air, it melted away like ice and snow, unable to resist the Haoran Justice Air triggered by Li Cheng's kick as his rotting flesh was blasted open!
But the Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan had no sense of pain, disregarding his tattered body, he leaped through the terrifying Haoran Justice Air and his fist, large as a small hill, brutally smashed towards Li Cheng.
Li Cheng remained calm, waving his hand and smashing down the Demon Suppressing Four Spirit Seal!
The Big Seal instantly became a hundred yards colossal, shattering the entire arm of the Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan as if it were rotting wood, and the momentum didn't stop there, as it continuously shattered half of his body!
The next second, the Demon Suppressing Four Spirit Seal transformed into four Big Seals, locking the space around the Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan, compressing from all four sides, attempting to crush him!
"How is this possible?" The Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan panicked!
Is reality this cruel? It's over!
Once the four seals close in, he would certainly be left with nothing but the Divine Origin!
Bang!
Suddenly, a forefinger bone appeared, as fast as lightning, tapped once on the four seals, and they were sent flying!
Li Cheng's pupils constricted, a strong individual from the mid-stage of the Divine Emperor's Realm!
After flicking away the four seals, the finger bone retreated a hundred yards, and, unbeknownst to when, a skeleton was already standing there.
The skeleton was gleaming like jade, emitting a faint luster, with the forefinger bone flying back to its fingertips.
The Two Venerables of Young and Old quickly positioned themselves to the left and right of Li Cheng, watching warily at the Bone Clan member.
Merely using a single finger, he had resolved the crisis of the Divine Emperor of the Corpse Clan, showcasing his mighty strength.

The Bone Clan's Divine Emperor had bone fire flickering in its eye sockets, seemingly evaluating Li Cheng and the Two Venerables of Young and Old before finally saying, "Li Cheng, my master invites you!"
"You recognize me?" Li Cheng inwardly breathed a sigh of relief and asked.
"The Supreme of the Three Paths of Pill Artifact Array, who doesn't know?" said the Divine Emperor of the Bone Clan.
"Who is your master?" Li Cheng asked again.
The mid-stage Divine Emperor's Realm Bone Clan member in front of him was just someone else's servant?
The Divine Emperor of the Bone Clan didn't respond to Li Cheng, just pointed in the distance, towards the direction where the Book of Confucius was located.
Li Cheng bowed to the Bone Clan's Divine Emperor and led the Two Venerabes of Young and Old on their way.
Before long, the three of them arrived at a lake where the air was clear and bright. In the center of the lake sat a pavilion where a woman in white was leisurely flipping through an ancient book.
That ancient book exuded powerful Haoran Justice Air, which turned the lake into a realm of clear and bright air, impermeable to the aura of death.
Without a doubt, that ancient book was the Book of Confucius!
Li Cheng observed the woman from across the lake: she wore a dress white as clouds, her black hair casually bound by a white silk scarf behind her, facing the vast heaven and sea, adding to her slender and graceful beauty, plain yet spiritual.
"Master, she's a living being, right?" Venerable Sou communicated through a mental message.
Li Cheng shook his head; the woman had no trace of a cultivator's aura, obviously her cultivation was extremely high, and she managed to perfectly conceal her aura, preventing him from sensing her cultivation level.
However, Li Cheng could sense that this woman's flesh and blood was genuine; indeed, she was a living being and not a Dead Spirit.
This was strange, a living being, yet she has taken a Divine Emperor-level Dead Spirit as a servant.
"It's better to meet once than to hear a hundred times, please!"
The woman was still reading the Book of Confucius, her elegant voice coming forth.
Li Cheng gestured to the Two Venerables of Young and Old to wait there, while he himself walked on water towards the pavilion.
Arriving outside the pavilion, Li Cheng got a clear view of the woman's appearance: her pretty face was as white as a peony, pure and peerless, without a single flaw.
"Are you the Netherworld Ancestor?" Li Cheng bowed respectfully and asked.
With immeasurable cultivation, residing in this gathering place of Dead Spirits and having taken a Divine Emperor's Realm Dead Spirit as a servant, Li Cheng could only think of the Netherworld Ancestor.
The woman slowly lifted her head, her clear eyes staring at Li Cheng, not answering his question but instead saying, "The Supreme of the Three Paths of Pill Artifact Array, yet you are only just over ten thousand years of age, to have such an individual in the Divine Realm indicates truly dire times ahead."
Before Li Cheng could speak, the woman closed the Book of Confucius, "You've come for the Book of Confucius, haven't you? It is in my hands."
Li Cheng nodded, "Do you wish to set conditions, senior?"
"Should I not?" The woman's expression was calm as her clear eyes once again looked towards Li Cheng.
Li Cheng gave a respectful gesture, "Please speak, senior!"
"I haven't decided yet, you can take the Book of Confucius for now, and when I've thought of something, I will find you." The woman spoke evenly.
