Chapter 1813 Cleaning up the portal
Little Celestial Venerable hadn't expected that his all-out attack wouldn't even scratch Li Yanchu's skin.

His head was smashed by Li Yanchu's punch, but he quickly emerged from the depths of reincarnation.

However, when faced with Li Yanchu's fists, he revived twelve times, only to have his head smashed and be killed twelve times in succession.

The Little Celestial Venerable felt the gap between himself and Li Yanchu, and his heart was filled with sorrow.

In terms of cultivation level, Li Yanchu was far inferior to himself. Little Celestial Venerable was at the late stage of Dao Lord Realm, while Li Yanchu was only at the middle stage of Dao Lord Realm.

However, now that the battles in the foreign lands are raging, and Li Yanchu's supernatural powers are extremely domineering, the Little Celestial Venerable has no advantage whatsoever in his duel with Li Yanchu after losing the Chaos Cave.

Little Celestial Venerable glared at Li Yanchu.

Li Yanchu stopped trying to kill him and stood leisurely not far from the Little Celestial Venerable.

Little Celestial Venerable gritted his teeth and said, "Li Yanchu, if you had dared to fight me fairly before, the outcome would have been uncertain. But you don't have that invincible mindset, so you are not a hero!"

"I think you've had too much to drink," Li Yanchu laughed. "You're talking more than I expected. What, are you stalling for time, waiting for your father to come and rescue you?"

Little Celestial Venerable's expression changed, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at Li Yanchu in disbelief and said in a deep voice, "You were deliberately waiting for my father."

Li Yanchu said, "I also want to know whether the three Dao Masters have killed the Great Celestial Venerable. If not, with our current strength, can we kill this Great Celestial Venerable here?"

Upon hearing this, the Little Celestial Venerable was first startled, then sneered, "You think you're worthy of plotting against my father!"

However, after the Little Celestial Venerable laughed wildly, the smile on his face disappeared, and his expression became extremely ugly.

Li Yanchu now has more than ten Dao Lords from other realms by his side, in addition to his own unfathomable strength...

Upon realizing this, the Little Celestial Venerable broke out in a cold sweat.

If they use themselves as bait to lure Father here, and Father fights the three Dao Lords, the situation will certainly be bad, who knows how the battle will go.

He might actually be killed here if he weren't at his peak.

Little Celestial Venerable had to admire Li Yanchu's insight and courage. Composing this plan at this time was indeed the best opportunity to ambush his father.

However, the Little Celestial Venerable's expression changed again.

If that's the case, why did Li Yanchu say it?
Is it really just because they've become complacent and fearless?
Little Celestial Venerable looked at Li Yanchu and said in a deep voice, "I know a lot about your deeds. You don't seem like the kind of person who would become arrogant after gaining power overnight. What exactly is the purpose of your behavior today?"

Li Yanchu smiled faintly: "Who says I'm not the kind of person who becomes arrogant when I'm successful? If I'm triumphant, I'll definitely take the heads of the three Dao Lords and hang them high in the Great Luo Heaven!"

The Little Celestial Venerable fell silent. He shook his head and said, "With your strength, you can suppress me and wait for my father to arrive. There's no need for that."

The next moment, he suddenly woke up.
"You're not talking to me!"

Li Yanchu sighed and said, "Your reaction time is indeed fast; I almost feel reluctant to kill you."

The young Celestial Venerable frowned, vaguely guessing what was going on.

Li Yanchu continued, "If I'm not mistaken, your father has already arrived, but he has been holding back. Perhaps he's afraid that if he shows himself and sees you killed by me, he won't dare to make a move and lose face as the Great Celestial Venerable."

The Little Celestial Venerable said coldly, "You don't need to try to disturb my Dao heart with words. If my father comes, he can kill you with one sword. How dare you be so arrogant here!"

Li Yanchu said, "Great Celestial Venerable, did you hear that? Your son speaks highly of you, yet you only dare to hide your true self. How pathetic! The Lesser Celestial Venerable says I am not a hero, but I think you are the real coward!"

Upon hearing this, the Little Celestial Venerable flew into a rage and charged towards Li Yanchu.
"You are not allowed to slander my father!"

However, he had been injured by the crowd and severely wounded by Li Yanchu, so his cultivation level was far inferior to Li Yanchu's.

Li Yanchu pressed down with his palm, suppressing the Little Celestial Venerable.

Little Celestial Venerable felt an incomparably powerful force pressing down on him, his bones felt like they were about to shatter, and he was almost unable to move.

Li Yanchu said, "Originally, I wanted to wait for your father to make a move and test your importance in the eyes of this Great Celestial Venerable, but you are indeed seriously injured. In that case, there is no need for you to live."

Li Yanchu pointed his fingers out like a sword and thrust them out. A stunning sword light burst forth from his fingertips and pierced through the Little Celestial Venerable's brow.

Little Celestial Venerable let out a miserable scream!
In that instant, his Cycle Dao was unable to withstand the attack and was completely severed by Li Yanchu. All 1,200 of his Cycle Dao bodies perished in an instant.

This Little Celestial Venerable, who stirred up trouble in foreign lands and successively revived ancient powerhouses such as Guo Huchan, Jun Wushuang, and Tianyang Daozhu, died tragically.

He gained the Hole, and then lost it here, as if fate had simply played a cruel joke on him.

He is the universally recognized next leader of the Hong Realm, and after the Great Celestial Venerable, he will lead all heroes.

His talent and his background were both incredibly high, but it's a pity that such a brilliant talent was ambushed and killed here by Li Yanchu.

Even on his deathbed, his Daoist mind was in turmoil, and a hundred thoughts arose in an instant.

After Li Yanchu killed the Little Celestial Venerable, he suddenly struck out with a palm, tearing a light curtain in the void.

The foreign Dao Lords looked solemn, as if facing a formidable enemy.

If the Great Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Realm is truly hiding here, the outcome of a battle against him is uncertain.

One thing is certain: many people will die here today.

Dealing with the Great Celestial Venerable is not as easy as dealing with the Lesser Celestial Venerable; someone will inevitably be sacrificed.

Li Yanchu looked into the void, but did not see any trace of the Great Celestial Venerable, only a sword light remained.

This sword light was very similar to the one that Li Yanchu had previously unleashed from his fingertips, killing the Little Celestial Venerable.
It's just more perfect, without any flaws, and more magnificent.

The sword pierced fiercely towards Li Yanchu, who surged his cultivation, his blood and qi becoming incredibly powerful in an instant.

He mobilized the nine innate principles and unleashed a punch.

The Nine Primordial Paths, from the beginning of chaos to the end of annihilation, operate ceaselessly, providing evidence of this cycle.

Li Yanchu's punch contained nine powerful energies, instantly causing the surrounding alien Dao Lords to feel a terrifying pressure.

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master's pupils contracted in surprise. "Nine Innate Paths!" he exclaimed.

The Nine Paths of the Primordial Chaos have always been extremely powerful, and each one is extremely difficult to master.

When these ancient saints from other realms went to the Hongjie to study, in order to seize resources and cultivate quickly, they all chose some relatively simple and easy paths to cultivate.

Very few people delve into the Nine Paths of the Primordial Chaos, and even fewer achieve any real mastery of them, let alone cultivate all nine.

This scene not only excited Tianyang Daozhu, but also Guo Huchan, Jun Wushuang, and others after feeling the power of Li Yanchu's punch with nine paths.

"I never imagined that I would see someone cultivate to the level of the Nine Innate Paths in my lifetime. It's simply unbelievable!" "Back when I was studying in the Hong Realm, I never heard of the Hong Realm having cultivation methods for the three Great Daos of Slaughter, Calamity, and Annihilation. I never expected that Brother Li would comprehend them on his own and even cultivate them to the level of Dao Master. His talent is truly inconceivable!"

Jun Wushuang thought to himself.

He was originally a proud and arrogant person, but now he has more and more respect for Li Yanchu.

To be able to lead this group of ancient holy clans as a so-called barbarian from the lower realm, and even more so as ancient holy clans, is incredibly difficult. No one else could do it, but Li Yanchu is the one who commands respect.

At this moment, Li Yanchu punched the sword light hidden in the void, but what happened made everyone extremely surprised.

Li Yanchu unleashed a domineering punch, but the sword light was incredibly sharp, even breaking through his divine power.

The sword light swiftly tore through Li Yanchu's layers of divine power defense, breaking through the nine Great Daos, including Chaos, Primordial Chaos, Taiyi, and Reincarnation.

However, Li Yanchu's physical body was indeed cultivated to be extremely powerful, which also meant that his Dao Body was incredibly sturdy.

After all, at his level, the Great Dao he cultivated constituted his physical body and primordial spirit, making him immortal and indestructible.

Although the sword light was extremely stunning, it was ultimately obliterated by Li Yanchu's fist.

Li Yanchu's powerful fist intent shattered everything in front of him, creating a huge gap that led to a deep, dark place where earth, fire, water, and wind were transformed into chaos.

Li Yanchu's expression was solemn. There was a deep wound on his fist, which was bleeding.

Li Yanchu said in a deep voice, "It's a pity that the Great Celestial Venerable refuses to show himself and fight; his cultivation is indeed formidable."

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master said, "That sword strike earlier was indeed something only a Great Heavenly Venerable could unleash."

Li Yanchu suddenly laughed and said, "He used my supernatural powers to deal with me, and deliberately left this sword behind to warn me not to be too arrogant."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding foreign Dao Lords were agitated and filled with righteous indignation.

A Daoist master from another region said loudly, "Brother, there's no need to pay attention to that old scoundrel. That old scoundrel always likes to use underhanded tactics to hurt people."

"Indeed, with your abilities, you will be able to kill this old scoundrel sooner or later. Wasn't he too scared to show his face today because of you?"

Li Yanchu looked at the destroyed Dragon Phoenix Cliff Dao Saint Palace, which had been completely annihilated by the collision of sword light and fist intent just now.

Faced with the flattery from these foreign Daoist masters, he no longer acted arrogantly.

Li Yanchu said seriously, "He may be seriously injured now, but even so, the sword light he left behind was able to injure me. This is both a warning and a reminder. Do not underestimate this person."

Although Li Yanchu's voice was not loud, it suppressed the voices of the otherworldly Dao Lords.

Even at the height of Jing Qing's power, this was nothing special.

Li Yanchu is very young, and his future achievements will likely surpass even Jing Qing's.

As soon as Li Yanchu finished speaking, he led the group of Dao Lords away in a whoosh.

As for the destroyed Dragon and Phoenix Cliff Dao Saint Palace, although it was specially cut down from the Great Luo Heaven by the Heavenly Sun Dao Master, and everyone had cultivated here for many days, it was still worth destroying because it could bury the Little Celestial Venerable of the Hong Realm.

…………

After everyone left, in a certain place in another realm, an old man with a long beard was leisurely strolling through various voids or traversing the mortal world.

The three Dao Masters also lost track of him.

At this moment, the long-bearded old man slowly stopped, his eyes as calm as still water, without any emotional fluctuation.

After single-handedly holding off the three Dao Lords, this Great Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Realm managed to break free from them.

He was indeed in that void before, but he ultimately did not choose to make a move.

In reality, no one knew whether he was injured or not, not even the three Dao Lords who were fighting against him.

The long-bearded old man stood there for a long time before slowly saying, "Do envoys from the Dao Domain nowadays all like to create a mystery?"

Even when faced with the death of the Little Celestial Venerable, no grief appeared in his eyes. That was his favorite son, the future of the Hong Realm. He died right in front of him, yet he was not provoked by Li Yanchu and did not attack. His heart seemed completely unmoved.

However, when the words "Dao Domain" were mentioned, the long-bearded old man's eyes revealed obvious disgust, hatred, and a hint of unknown fear.

Two figures appeared behind him, a man and a woman, both with extraordinary grace and ethereal charm.

Yu Shu smiled faintly, neither confirming nor denying the Great Celestial Venerable's words, but asked, "Are you really injured? So injured that you didn't dare to kill Li Yanchu when he provoked you?"

The Great Celestial Venerable met Yu Shu's gaze, his killing intent emanating intensely from him.

Yu Shu naturally felt this terrifying pressure, but since he came from the Dao Domain, he had the confidence to do so, and the hem of his clothes did not move at all.

The Great Celestial Venerable said calmly, "I left that sword light behind to warn him that there are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people. I am confident that I can kill him."

Yu Shu asked curiously, "If that's the case, why not take action? Wouldn't it be wonderful if he could avenge your son?"

The Great Celestial Venerable said seriously, "I am on guard against you."

He spoke so frankly, making Yu Shu, who was originally preparing to feign indifference, look somewhat embarrassed. But after a moment, he clapped his hands and laughed, "Fellow Daoist is truly a hidden gem. The Dao Domain's failure to properly nurture you is perhaps a real loss."

The fact that the Great Celestial Venerable actually came from the Dao Domain—if this news were to spread, it would likely cause an immediate sensation.

The Great Celestial Venerable said in a deep voice, "Previously, my mind fluctuated three times in the void. Each time, you were tempted to kill me, but in the end, you did not make a move. The envoys of the Dao Domain are truly getting worse with each generation."

Upon hearing this, Yu Shu frowned slightly, but then relaxed and smiled: "Winning hearts is the best policy. If you were confident that you could defeat the two of us, you wouldn't waste your energy on such a trivial matter. It's clear that you are all bark and no bite right now."

The Great Celestial Venerable said, "Whether you are all bark and no bite, you can try it yourself. Come on, the envoys of the Dao Domain have always been powerful, and have they ever been afraid of people from this remote universe?"

Yu Shu smiled slightly: "No rush. There are more than just the two of us who want to kill you now. There are also those three friends and Li Yanchu. No matter who finds you, it will be a fierce battle. At that time, I may not even need to clean up the mess."

The Great Celestial Venerable said, "Since you are not going to make a move, I will take my leave."

Having said that, he actually didn't intend to continue fighting with Yu Shu and Chen Sui from the Dao Domain.

After taking only a few steps, the Great Celestial Venerable looked at the calm and composed Yu Shu and suddenly said, "If we were in different places, and the envoy of the Dao Domain today was Li Yanchu, he would never be like you. He is the kind of hero. If I were to die at his hands, it would not be unjust at all. But to die at your hands, hehe."

He didn't say anything more, but glanced at Yu Shu before leaving.

Yu Shu, who was always calm and collected, did not react at all upon hearing this. However, Chen Sui noticed that his hand, which was clenched in his sleeve, suddenly tightened, and his knuckles turned white.

Chen Sui thought to himself, "The knot in my heart is hard to untie. Yu Shu's jealousy of Li Yanchu is much stronger than I feel."
