âyou know of your progenitorâs struggle, what about zhan sanshengâs?â li qiye smiled.
âi do not.â she shook her head.
âdo you think his route toward immortality was smooth? easy rebirth and re-cultivating?â li qiye asked.
â...â she couldnât answer because few cared about the details.
they knew about his deaths, the first of which happened during immortals slaughtered where he fell along with the three immortals.
the second happened during heavenslay, killed by desolate ancestors and other progenitors. he still came back to life and assumed his prime again.
putting aside the process, just each death must have been agonizing.
âeveryone believes if they can become immortals, they will not fear death.â li qiye smiled: âbut is this the case? if i guarantee you a rebirth, will you be able to face death without any hesitation?â
âa rebirth.â she became emotional.
âyes, death and then life again.â li qiye said.
she took a deep breath without answering, glancing at the sky.
âmost attribute success to luck and circumstances.â li qiye said.
âi would give it a shot.â she gritted her teeth and said.
âbuzz.â she was pushed up another path and an unknown dao mystery. her fate palaces became active along with her grand dao. dao laws emerged, telling her to bathe in this special place.
âthese mysteries are mine!â she realized this was the key to breaking through.
therefore, she mustered all her strength and speed, wanting to catch this dao mystery with the best grasping technique.
âboom!â the dao source erupted and sent her flying.
she, a heaven-slayer, could look down on all of old world. she reacted swiftly by building several barriers. however, the dao explosion took them down instantly.
ârumble!â a tribulation manifested near the dao mystery to her horror.
âboom!â it surged dramatically and sent down lightning bolts, capable of reducing billions to ashes.
she had never seen a tribulation of this magnitude before so she retreated, warping from one dimension to another.
alas, the tribulation was attached to her like her own shadow. lightning in the shape of a palm appeared above, sending down smaller lightning bolts and flames.
âsky cutter!â she knew running was not an option and delivered a vertical slash using her grand dao.
unfortunately, the palm crushed her dao slash and the remaining barriers. bolts and flames detonated upon contact.
âiâm finished...â she closed her eyes, accepting death.
âbam!â pain coursed through her and just when she thought she would become ashes, nothing else happened.
she opened her eyes and saw that she was knocked to the ground. the immortal peak and founder tablet appeared the same as before.
