Poverty

Chapter 1871 Transformation
In the void, a celestial Kun was swimming swiftly.

This celestial Kun possessed a vast aura and was currently traversing the vast void at an extremely fast speed.

An ancient spaceship was relentlessly pursuing him, like a predator eyeing a bloodthirsty shark, unwilling to let its prey go.

Several figures on the Tiankun were injured and looked haggard.

The thin man who had previously invited Li Yanchu to be his guest was among this group.

Yuan Jue said angrily, "This Hong Tiangang is like a leech, he has been chasing us for so long and still won't give up."

A woman said in a deep voice, "Hong Tiangang has gone mad for this piece of divine gold in our hands. He will never give up until he gets his hands on it."

A murderous aura flashed in Yuan Jue's eyes.

A cultivator from the Old Earth Immortal Dynasty nearby said, "Why don't we just give this divine metal to him?"

The woman shook her head.
"Even if we hand it over to him, he won't let us go. Besides, this divine gold is what His Majesty needs; how can we just give it away?"

Yuan Jue said angrily,
"That's right, how could this demon of the old land let us go so easily? It's a pity that Xuanyuan Po died just like that."

Xuanyuan Po was the burly man who had come to pick up Li Yanchu earlier.

They were ordered to search for items containing primordial Dao energy in the universe, but they ran into Hong Tiangang and have been hunted down ever since.

That primordial Dao Qi is not only found in the black box; it is contained in some universes out of tens of thousands of universes, but the quantity is extremely rare, and most of them are hidden in some special items.

The wisp of primordial Dao energy they found was contained within a piece of divine metal.
This divine metal is a treasure similar to the spiritual root of the universe. It can be said to be a cosmic companion, and it only forms under extremely rare circumstances.

This piece of divine gold alone is enough to ignite a murderous intent in people.

And this divine metal unexpectedly contained a wisp of primordial Dao energy, so it would be strange if Hong Tiangang let them go.

Xuanyuan Po died in the previous battle. Not only Xuanyuan Po died, but many powerful figures in the Old Land also died in battle, leaving only the four of them.

The woman's name was Lin Wanqiu, and she also looked worried at this moment.

Xuanyuan Po is dead, leaving only this Tiankun frantically helping them escape, but Tiankun is severely injured and doesn't seem to be able to hold on for much longer.

Hong Tiangang quickly caught up, a fierce look on his face.

Hong Tiangang obtained the secrets of the Nine Paths from Li Yanchu, greatly increasing his cultivation.

He was ordered to go out, and by chance, he encountered such a great opportunity; the divine gold alone was extremely precious.

The power of a spiritual treasure forged from divine metal is much greater than that of an ordinary spiritual treasure, and the divine metal also contains special power, which makes Hong Tiangang even more interested.

At this moment, Hong Tiangang kept urging the spaceship forward and finally caught up with this group of powerful old-world warriors.

Hong Tiangang sneered, "You demons and gods of the old land, why don't you quickly submit to your doom!"

At this moment, these powerful figures from the old land all showed resolute expressions, and they all unleashed their divine powers to attack Hong Tiangang and the others.

The cultivators from the Dao Ji Palace and the powerful figures from the Dao Domain surrounding Hong Tiangang then unleashed their spiritual treasures or talismans to attack them, and the two sides clashed.

Hong Tiangang's cultivation is formidable, posing the greatest threat to this group from the Old Earth.

He grabbed the head of an old earth warrior, and with a bang, the old earth warrior was killed unwillingly. His head was smashed to pieces, and blood mixed with skull fragments splattered on Hong Tiangang's body.

Hong Tiangang casually tossed the man aside and then charged at another person.

These four powerful beings from the ancient lands couldn't hold out for long. Even Tiankun was killed, and his enormous corpse floated in the void of the universe.

Even when Yuan Jue transformed into a giant demon ape, he was no match for Hong Tiangang. Hong Tiangang's cultivation was simply too domineering, and the giant demon ape's heart was ripped out.

Soon only Lin Wanqiu remained.

Lin Wanqiu was also seriously injured at this time. She was a famous beauty in the old land, with unparalleled beauty, but at this moment she might die at any time.

Hong Tiangang showed no mercy and coldly said, "Lin Wanqiu, hand over the divine gold and become my disciple to atone for your sins, and perhaps I can spare your life."

Lin Wanqiu said coldly, "You people from the Dao Domain are all executioners. The fact that less than one-tenth of the population of the Great Liang Realm universe has been destroyed is all your doing."

Hong Tiangang said calmly, "Now that I've killed you, who will know that I was the one who did what happened in the Great Liang Realm? They died at the hands of you old land demons and gods. What does that have to do with my Dao Domain?"

Lin Wanqiu angrily said, "Despicable! The Dao Domain prides itself on justice, yet its actions are so ruthless. The Dao Domain will never have a good end!"

Hong Tiangang laughed and said, "The old land is troubled by calamity and is already teetering on the brink of collapse. On the other hand, my Dao Domain is at its zenith. How can your old land compare to it? You should worry about yourself."

He immediately reached out and attacked Lin Wanqiu, who then activated her supernatural powers to meet the attack.

She cultivated the Great Dao of Calamity and Fortune, and at this moment, she unleashed her cultivation power, instantly transforming into a long sword of calamity and fortune, which she then used to kill Hong Tiangang.

Hong Tiangang flicked his fingers lightly, and after a few times, he broke Lin Wanqiu's supernatural power. Lin Wanqiu's supernatural power dissipated between heaven and earth, as if struck by lightning. She kept retreating, but it seemed that she still could not escape Hong Tiangang's vicious hand.

Hong Tiangang reached out to grab Lin Wanqiu, and Lin Wanqiu summoned a magical treasure.

This magical treasure was a mask-shaped object, which Lin Wanqiu wore on her face.

This magical treasure had already been activated multiple times before, and Lin Wanqiu's forced activation of it again consumed her own life essence.

The moment the silver mask covered her face, Lin Wanqiu's speed increased dramatically, and she frantically rushed away.

Previously, she was unwilling to abandon everyone and chose to share the burden with them, but now she hopes to seize a glimmer of hope with this mask.

If they fell into the hands of the Daoist people, who knows how much torture they would suffer.

People from the Dao Domain pride themselves on being righteous and noble, but when they enter the ordinary universe, they act extremely brutally, burning, killing, looting, and committing all sorts of evil deeds. They often use the name of the Old Earth and are skilled at destroying evidence and silencing witnesses.

Lin Wanqiu knew that the Venerable One beside Hong Tiangang had abducted many beautiful female cultivators to practice the Joyful Dharma. She was unwilling to suffer such humiliation and frantically fled away.

The stout monk beside Hong Tiangang activated a large banner, from which countless pink rays of light emanated, sweeping towards Lin Wanqiu.

Lin Wanqiu suddenly felt dizzy and confused, and a sound was about to come out of her throat involuntarily.

Lin Wanqiu gritted her teeth and endured it.

Once she was affected by the Joyful Venerable's supernatural powers, she would be powerless to resist, and she was unwilling to fall into his hands.

At this moment, Venerable Joy smiled and said to Hong Tiangang, "Brother Dao, it would be a pity to kill this woman. Why not leave her to me? She is a famous beauty in the old land. It would be wonderful if I could train her properly!"

Hong Tiangang laughed and said, "I just brought her into my sect for you. If you do a good job, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."

The Venerable Joy laughed heartily, cupped his hands, and said, "Brother Dao, you truly care for your subordinates."

Hong Tiangang smiled slightly.

He really liked this level of flattery; it really hit the nail on the head.

He intended to cultivate his own power, so he naturally had to offer his subordinates more benefits. Although he wasn't interested in women, some people around him were.

At this moment, Hong Tiangang waved his hand and grabbed out. Lin Wanqiu, who was affected by the divine power of the Joyful Venerable, was unable to move and was about to be caught by him.

But the next moment, Lin Wanqiu's figure flashed.

Hong Tiangang's supernatural power struck a huge, desolate void, and then vanished without a trace.

This void of annihilation is no small matter; it is the transformation of a powerful being who has attained the Dao of Annihilation after death. Moreover, such a person's cultivation must reach a certain level in order to potentially transform into a void. Otherwise, after death, the Dao dissipates and a void will never form.

At this moment, Hong Tiangang was somewhat moved.

"Where did this desolate, empty void come from?"

Lin Wanqiu clung tightly to the desolate void. Once she entered the desolate void, she would perish both in body and soul, becoming nourishment for the void.

But that way she could remain innocent. Lin Wanqiu gritted her teeth: "You want the divine gold? I'd rather throw it into the void than give it to you!"

Hong Tiangang was taken aback at first, then chuckled and said, "You woman are not knowledgeable enough. You really are from a barbarian land. The Void of Annihilation is not all-encompassing. The divine metal in your hand happens to be one of the substances it cannot dissolve. Why don't you give it a try?"

Lin Wanqiu frowned.

Divine Gold is extremely rare. She only knew it was very precious, but she didn't know its specific properties.

Hearing Hong Tiangang say this, he hesitated for a moment.

But the next moment, taking advantage of her distraction, Hong Tiangang reached out and grabbed her, his long sleeves billowing out, and Lin Wanqiu was about to fall into the boundless space-time.

But the next moment, she gritted her teeth and prepared to throw herself into the void.

Hong Tiangang's supernatural power suddenly changed, and countless clouds formed around Lin Wanqiu.

These clouds lifted Lin Wanqiu's figure, sending it continuously upwards.

The Venerable Joyful One was anxiously wringing his hands. He had been worried that Lin Wanqiu, this old beauty, would perish in the void of oblivion.

Seeing Hong Tiangang's extraordinary abilities, he couldn't help but exclaim loudly, "Brother Dao, what amazing supernatural powers you possess!"

Hong Tiangang was quite pleased with himself at this moment.

That move just now contained the changes of the Great Dao, and even a powerful person like Lin Wanqiu could only be easily manipulated by him.

However, at this moment, the Void of Annihilation suddenly began to rotate, devouring everything around it. Hong Tiangang's supernatural powers were immediately absorbed by the power of the Void of Annihilation.

Hong Tiangang was somewhat moved.
Why did this desolate void erupt?

The Void of Annihilation sometimes devours other smaller voids, but such a sudden upheaval is extremely rare.

Even though Hong Tiangang was extremely knowledgeable, he was still somewhat puzzled at this moment.

.........

On the other hand, Li Yanchu was naturally unwilling to perish.

However, having been tricked by that woman before, he dared not trust this mysterious person who existed in an unknown place too much.

To his surprise, the mysterious man did not teach him any techniques to help him leave. He simply said a few words to him and then disappeared without a trace. No matter how Li Yanchu called him, he could not find him.

Li Yanchu pondered for a long time.

He is now in a very peaceful state, which is perfect for deduce the Great Dao. His Dao of Nirvana is improving at an extremely fast pace in this state, and it can be said that he is making progress every minute and every second.

His control over this Dao of Annihilation became increasingly formidable.

Li Yanchu gradually felt that he could almost control the Void of Annihilation and transform back into human form.

He could also sense some changes in the outside world and heard some of the previous sounds coming in, which immediately annoyed Li Yanchu.

Hong Tiangang!
He hadn't expected that Hong Tiangang was outside at that moment.

He had always thought the Dao Domain was a hypocritical place, but he never imagined it would be so hypocritical, far beyond his imagination.

Li Yanchu was somewhat surprised by the true colors of Hong Tiangang and his gang.

However, upon closer reflection, it doesn't seem out of place. These people were somewhat restrained when they were in the Dao Domain, but it was still clear that they were extremely despicable. If they left the Dao Domain, they would naturally do anything and commit all sorts of evil deeds.

Therefore, Li Yanchu mobilized the power of the Nirvana Void and absorbed a portion of Hong Tiangang's power at a crucial moment.

Hong Tiangang's earlier attack struck the Void of Annihilation, and the external force it provided became the perfect opportunity for Li Yanchu to transform back into human form.

Furthermore, the fact that he has now actively absorbed this power is already sufficient.

Li Yanchu wasn't in a hurry to recover. He activated the Void of Annihilation, and the entire Void of Annihilation enveloped Hong Tiangang.

Hong Tiangang was greatly surprised!
Seeing that the desolate void seemed to have identified him, his face darkened, and he threw a punch, unleashing the power of the Great Dao, which slammed into the desolate void.

Having gained this portion of power, Li Yanchu felt extremely pleased.

Hong Tiangang threw a punch, but unexpectedly, the Void of Annihilation began to spin wildly, constantly rotating inward, and finally disappeared, transforming into a human form.

Upon seeing the man's appearance clearly, Hong Tiangang was greatly surprised and exclaimed, "Li Yanchu!"

Hong Tiangang had been away from the Dao Domain for a long time and was unaware of the major events that had occurred there. Li Yanchu had already left the Heavenly Prison and even stayed in the Old Land for a period of time.

He had been in tens of thousands of universes during this time, and was quite surprised to see Li Yanchu now.
"How did you get out of the imperial prison?"

After Hong Tiangang said this, Li Yanchu immediately realized that Hong Tiangang was unaware of his escape from the Heavenly Prison.

Li Yanchu said, "Your face is truly disgusting."

Hong Tiangang said coldly, "I don't care how you escaped from the Heavenly Prison. Now that you're in my hands again, I'll take you back with me."

Those around him were all his trusted confidants, so he wasn't afraid of leaking information. At this moment, Hong Tiangang felt extremely happy. Capturing Li Yanchu and carefully interrogating him about the mysteries of the Nine Paths of the Innate Realm—wasn't this one of the greatest pleasures in life?
Immediately, Hong Tiangang reached out and struck Li Yanchu.

Li Yanchu was able to recover from the desolate void, and his cultivation level not only did not decline, but actually increased significantly.

He reached out and drew his sword, slashing down with a terrifyingly powerful force of annihilation that directly shattered Hong Tiangang's divine abilities.

Hong Tiangang felt a sharp pain in his palm, and when he looked down, he saw that it was covered in blood and the skin was torn open.

Hong Tiangang was immediately surprised. Li Yanchu's cultivation level was far inferior to his, and he was no match for him. How could he have become so powerful in the blink of an eye?

However, Hong Tiangang suddenly woke up.

"The Void of Annihilation! He has regained his human form from the Void of Annihilation!"

Hong Tiangang felt as if his heart was about to leap out of his chest; it was an extremely terrifying situation.

Before he could even think, Li Yanchu had already charged forward and swung his sword down.

Hong Tiangang frowned slightly. Seeing Li Yanchu's aggressive approach, he kept retreating and temporarily avoided her.

Li Yanchu's Dao-Slaying Divine Blade was previously inside the jujube tree, which is one of the special treasures that the Silent Void could not refine, thus allowing it to remain.

Li Yanchu brandished his divine blade and charged at Hong Tiangang once again. Hong Tiangang had nowhere to dodge and had to meet the attack head-on.

His Dao power was extremely profound. Although Li Yanchu's cultivation had greatly improved, his Dao power was still not as profound as his.

Hong Tiangang activated the nine paths of proof, although he did not fully comprehend them.

However, after receiving guidance from Li Yanchu, his skill level increased significantly, and he immediately broke through Li Yanchu's sword light.

Hong Tiangang said proudly, "How about it?"

Of those present, only he and Li Yanchu understood the meaning behind it.

Hong Tiangang meant that he had learned the Nine Paths of Evidence from him, and now he could crush him.

Li Yanchu smiled and said, "You've really practiced quite well."

Hong Tiangang might have to put in some effort to deal with him using other supernatural powers, but if it were the Nine Paths of Evidence...

next moment,
Li Yanchu's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light:
"You delivered yourself right to my doorstep!"

He had left a trap in the technique back then, and now Hong Tiangang has walked right into it.

This is Heaven's will to punish him!
