442: Three Heroes vs. Xiantian (Part 3)

Just as Qing Li and Myriad Gods were about to clash, Myriad Gods suddenly discarded his spear.

Instead, he charged at Qing Li with a body cultivation technique, using a forceful, head-on approach.

“Eight Desolations Horizontal!”

This was a powerful martial art that Myriad Gods had created himself since he began practicing body tempering.

It wasn't until Qing Li was close that he realized the terrifying force contained within it.

He was struck and sent crashing into the ground, creating a massive crater with a loud boom.

Seizing this opportunity, the three of them simultaneously attacked Qing Li.

Various attacks rained down on the ground, all landing on Qing Li.

At this moment, amidst their dense offensive, a streak of Qing Guang rapidly lit up.

In the blink of an eye, it took the place of their attacks.

Divine Ability — Qing Ji Profound Light Shield!

All attacks were, without exception, blocked by this Divine Ability.

However, Chen De and the others did not act in vain; visible cracks appeared on the Qing Guang Shield.

That single blow just now almost managed to pierce through the shield.

Following closely behind the Profound Light Shield was another Green gold beam (azure-gold beam of light).

Divine Ability — Qing Xuan Southern Li Light!

A purely offensive Divine Ability, none of the three dared to meet it head-on, scattering to dodge.

The East Sea Sword Saint was very lucky; he dodged in time and was not hit.

Chen De's luck was a bit worse; he was hit by this Divine Ability once again, his aura slightly declining, but he recovered in a flash.

Lastly, there was Myriad Gods, whose luck was the worst; he was also grazed by the beam, and his injuries were even more severe than Chen De’s.

After realizing his injuries, Myriad Gods spared no effort and fully committed to recovery.

This was not too late; Chen De suddenly felt countless powerful forces converging on Myriad Gods.

As a result, his entire state was completely refreshed.

Divine Ability — Heaven and Earth Qian Yuan!

Because he had once sought this Divine Ability and also tried to comprehend it himself.

Chen De immediately guessed what method Myriad Gods was using.

This Divine Ability didn't seem as simple as it looked, instantly restoring full power.

Moreover, it seemed to restore more than just power, but also vital energy, spirit, and so on.

The injuries caused by that Divine Ability just now were almost completely healed in the blink of an eye.

Chen De saw this and thought, this Divine Ability is amazing; it can even be used for combat, unlike his own, which is specifically for cultivation.

When encountering such a fighting scene, he would just wither.

Since they were fine, the three of them regrouped and once again advanced towards Qing Li.

At the same time, Qing Li also transformed into an azure-gold light mass, charging straight at the three of them.

The power of this attack was something none of the three could withstand alone, so they jointly acted to neutralize it.

Revealing the presence within, it was Qing Li.

The three could clearly feel that Qing Li's aura was noticeably stronger.

Was he continuously recovering his strength over time?

Was he going to keep recovering, recovering, until he ascended to immortality?

Precisely because of this, the three of them should engage in a quick battle.

Then, the three of them once again wrestled with Qing Li.

Various methods emerged endlessly, and occasionally some of them caused Qing Li to suffer no small losses.

But unfortunately, as a born sacred being, Qing Li’s foundation was too stable.

Attacks of Chen De and the others' caliber were insufficient to shake his innate origin.

As they fought, Qing Li grew stronger and stronger, and the three gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Each of Qing Li's attacks required the combined strength of all three of them to resist, and the pressure increased linearly, becoming greater and greater.

This won't do!

Immediately, the three exchanged glances; although they weren't particularly familiar with each other before.

But each of them was a battle-hardened expert, and their cooperation was as seamless as that of teams who had worked together for many years.

“Ah ya ya!”

“All beings of the Four Profound Heavens, I come to avenge you!”

Myriad Gods cried out, charging at Qing Li alone.

He held a spear in one hand and condensed a black and white mixed-element bomb in the other to attack Qing Li.

“Heh.”

“You come alone to die?”

Seeing that someone still dared to charge forward alone at this point, Qing Li's eyes showed a hint of mockery.

But he was also wary, preventing the other two from pulling any tricks.

Myriad Gods, however, laughed in return, his tone full of abandon.

“I heard that innate beings are legendary existences even in the upper realms; how many people wish to see them but cannot.

To die at the hands of such a powerful being, I consider myself incredibly fortunate!”

“You better be ready for this move of mine.”

“Then I’ll let you die quickly.” Qing Li looked at the charging Myriad Gods, who had a look of facing death bravely.

In his hand, azure light swirled, condensing into the shape of a sword.

First, he slashed apart the black and white mixed-element bomb that Myriad Gods had thrown, then quickly changed his stance, holding the sword with both hands and hack (cleaving) down towards Myriad Gods's head.

Myriad Gods parried with his spear, the short spear nearly breaking under the strain.

Just then, Myriad Gods's strength suddenly surged, pushing Qing Li back in their contest of power.

Then he put away his spear again, closing in and wrestling with Qing Li.

Punch for punch, blow for blow.

Every hit landed, and the scene was extremely violent at times.

Divine Ability — Heaven and Earth Juhe!

All great power is added to my body, a close-combat auxiliary Divine Ability, which can last for ninety-nine breaths each time it is used.

Myriad Gods's aura suddenly surged, and his normally proportioned body became heavily muscled.

Qing Li’s attacks, when they landed on him, actually produced a metallic clang.

Relying on this Divine Ability, Myriad Gods fought Qing Li back and forth, barely falling into a disadvantage.

Yes, like Qing Li, he had mastered two Divine Abilities in total.

Not only that, he also possessed the cultivation method for a Divine Ability, which was Wang Teng's Heaven and Earth Profound Connection.

Speaking of which, Wang Teng's Heaven and Earth Profound Connection was given to him by Myriad Gods.

But just as Wang Teng couldn't learn Heaven and Earth Qian Yuan, Qing Li also couldn't learn Heaven and Earth Profound Connection.

After all, Divine Abilities don't have specific cultivation methods; it could be a stone statue, a leaf... even the Heaven and Earth Qian Yuan technique only brings one closer to the state of successful comprehension.

One can only rely on comprehension; either you grasp it, or you don't.

This was also what Myriad Gods regretted the most; although Heaven and Earth Profound Connection was not the strongest Divine Ability, it was the core Divine Ability of the Heaven and Earth Profound Sect, the central hub of these inherited Divine Abilities.

Possessing Heaven and Earth Profound Connection would allow him to combine and link his two Divine Abilities, forming an even more powerful Divine Ability.

Just like at this moment, if Myriad Gods had possessed Heaven and Earth Profound Connection, combining it with Heaven and Earth Juhe to form a more powerful Divine Ability.

Myriad Gods would have been able to fight Qing Li by himself, and even suppress him.

Unfortunately, if you can't learn it, you can't learn it; Divine Abilities, even if obtained, still depend on fate.

Qing Li was also somewhat surprised by Myriad Gods's attacks; his current state was even stronger than when he was first born.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was overwhelmingly invincible in the Mortal Realm, yet he didn't expect someone could actually fight him face to face.

Immediately, he looked to see what the other two were doing.

Chen De and the East Sea Sword Saint were floating in mid-air, their hands...
