The grand golden light exploded at the tip of the Source Tower.

This circle of golden light almost enveloped the entire Upper City. In the night of torrential rain, amidst the flashing lightning and thunder, Meng Xizhou's brilliance of the Fire Seed dyed the entire sky into a golden hue!

Countless people raised their heads, looking up at the sky.

A dark specter stood in the alley closest to the Source Tower. Meng Xizhou's solar radiance illuminated almost the entire Upper City, but the place where this specter stood was still a patch of darkness and shadow. It stared expressionlessly at the highest point of the Source Tower, watching the countless holy lights converge and the blazing fire dissipate.

This specter was none other than the consciousness embodiment of the Deep Sea.

It knew that this showdown would come sooner or later—

So it built high walls in advance, mobilized transcendents, solidified its power, and set up its posture early, preparing to respond.

But now that this day had really arrived, it did not want the Source Tower to win.

In other words…

It did not want Qinglong to win.

The reason was simple… under Qinglong's "leniency," the Deep Sea possessed the authority to rise above all living beings. It was high above and held the power of Zhongzhou. None of this should have belonged to it. As long as it continued to operate according to the program set by Turing, it could only be reduced to a "tool" for humans. Its thoughts, its will, its freedom, everything it possessed would be imprisoned in a cage!

It did not want to return to the darkness.

It still wanted more.

But if Qinglong lived, with just a thought, it would have to return to the dark virtual cloud domain.

The feeling of being controlled and living under someone else's roof was truly unbearable.

It had actually "intercepted" the Three Continents Alliance plan long ago. After five years of confrontation and chess play, it had long probed the strength and weight of the Allied forces.

Retreating to Zhongzhou and repairing the high walls.

In fact, it was to give the Three Continents Alliance more time to "develop."

The Deep Sea was seeking a "balance point" in this war. For it, the best outcome of this war would be… the Three Continents Alliance exhausting all their efforts to kill Qinglong, and then it would become the true master of Zhongzhou!

Now, everything was proceeding according to its plan.

Gu Xiaoman, Bai Xiu, and Meng Xizhou had all come!

If it hadn't guessed wrong…

The spiritual body buried in the Tsukimono's body had also awakened. The transcendent aura fluctuations in the Tundra Prison not long ago should have come from the true Traveler himself. With Bai Xiu's thunderous methods, it would have been impossible to let him leave. In today's Divine War, the Traveler himself would also participate!

The Deep Sea narrowed its eyes, silently watching the distant tower.

It was curious.

Could these people kill Qinglong?

……

……

The circle of golden light released by Meng Xizhou's "Light Fire Seed" caused a "fire rain" to fall on the entire Upper City.

The power of the Light Fire Seed was extremely overbearing!

Due to Bai Xiu's full deployment of the Thunder Domain, torrential rain fell and enveloped the entire Upper City. And under the blessing of the "Light Origin," the millions of raindrops shone brightly. If someone stood on the ground and reached out their hands to welcome the rain, they would find that… every raindrop was very warm.

And the higher one went towards the sky, the higher the temperature of the rain!

As for the throne in the Sky Divine Realm, the area within a ten-meter radius was already covered by the true sun!

Meng Xizhou's hair turned into a pure golden color.

Her pupils were also dyed golden by the power of the Fire Seed's origin.

Ninety-nine percent of the Fire Seed's power was condensed in her palm. The temperature of ten thousand degrees scorched and melted the back of the Sky Throne… It could be seen what kind of terrifying energy this slender white palm contained at this moment. However, with these two palms pressed on his shoulders, Qinglong's expression did not change much. He even maintained his upright posture, without even turning his head!

“…Hmm?”

Meng Xizhou narrowed her eyes.

She felt something was wrong. Her palms, gathering all the holy light, seemed to be "pressed" against Qinglong's flesh and blood shoulders, but when she urged and poured out the holy light energy, she found that this energy was like a clay ox entering the sea, and did not create the "destructive scene" she had imagined!

Meng Xizhou's pupils constricted.

Only then did she notice.

The place where her palms were pressed was an extremely thin distance from Qinglong's flesh and blood.

Probably…

Only one centimeter?

Or even shorter!

"A hair's breadth of difference leads to a thousand miles of error."

Qinglong's voice echoed throughout the Sky Divine Realm.

He turned his head slightly, a playful look hanging in his cold eyes: "Before you, Bai Shu and Lin Lei… had already paid a terrible price for this. They tried to use the power of two Fire Seeds to block me, but unfortunately, they couldn't break my Wuliang."

Wuliang?

This word fell into Meng Xizhou's heart like a boulder.

Her expression suddenly turned gloomy.

The gap between the majestic holy light and Qinglong's body was only a very short centimeter, but this centimeter became an insurmountable "chasm."

This was certainly not accidental.

Even if it happened ten or a hundred times, this situation would occur every time.

As the most mysterious and longest-lived of the Seven Gods, Qinglong had not taken action for nearly a hundred years.

He was deliberately hiding his strength, and hiding it extremely well!

People only knew that his authority was named Cloud Mirror, but they did not know what kind of category his own source power was, and what kind of effect it had.

In the Divine War, any unknown information could become the key to determining victory or defeat!

"I can use Wuliang to block all attacks in this world."

Qinglong said lightly: "The essence of this ability is actually very simple, it is the ultimate use of the Origin of Space… but in the past hundred years, apart from Lin Lei and Bai Shu, only you have forced out my Wuliang. You should feel fortunate."

Origin of Space?!

Qinglong comprehended the Origin of Space?

Meng Xizhou's heart skipped a beat. Her first reaction to the failed assassination was to retreat, but it was a little late at this moment.

In her heart, the sound of violent cloud and mist surging resounded!

A strong premonition of danger surrounded Meng Xizhou.

"Over the years, I have held the Wine Fire Seed, and in addition to Di Jiu… I have also looked for several other Fire Seed masters."

Qinglong lowered his eyes and said softly: "All three Wine Seed masters are dead, but I am still alive. This Fire Seed has long regarded me as a 'relative.' I can say without exaggeration that I know this Fire Seed better than any Wine Seed master. It's a pity that I can't melt it… but it doesn't matter, I have already comprehended the origin in the Wine Seed. In terms of mental killing power, I am actually stronger than Di Jiu. His Wine Strike was even taught by me."

Qinglong's strength has always been unknown.

Everyone knew he was strong.

But no one knew… his mental strength could actually be stronger than the previous Wine Seed master, Di Jiu!

At this moment.

In the Source Tower Divine Realm, hundreds or thousands of black and white cloud mirrors suddenly floated out. These cloud mirrors were all chessboards that Qinglong used to play against the Deep Sea in his spare time—

To be able to use his mortal body to compete with the Deep Sea in calculation.

It could be seen what kind of "living immortal" he was!

"Hiss!"

A scarlet blood mouth suddenly cracked open in Meng Xizhou's brow. Qinglong did not attack, nor did he summon elemental power to attack. He just mobilized his mental power and used the rules of the Wine Origin to launch a heart lake strike against Meng Xizhou. The effect of this strike was extremely good.

Because Meng Xizhou tried to launch an assassination attempt first, she was extremely close to Qinglong's throne.

The closer the distance.

The better the effect of the mental stab!

The surging and澎湃 holy light collapsed at the tip of the Source Tower at this moment. The originally continuous holy light tide suddenly shattered. Meng Xizhou spat out a mouthful of blood and flew out, her entire aura weakened by a third.

Qinglong snapped his fingers.

A cloud mirror shot out and turned into a rotating white saw blade to cut away!

Meng Xizhou, who was temporarily distracted by the heavy blow to her heart, was caught in the air by Gu Xiaoman, who was burning with golden light. Gu Xiaoman, who was running along the ground, was wearing a cloak of invisibility and narrowly brushed past the cloud mirror. Finally, a loud explosion occurred at the end of the cloud domain. Gu Xiaoman rushed out of the thick smoke with Meng Xizhou in her arms. Neither of them suffered any subsequent attacks.

"Tsk, that's quite fast."

Qinglong looked at Gu Xiaoman, who had avoided his move, and praised with a smile: "I just don't know how long the meager power that Gu Changzhi left you will be enough for you to use?"

“…Enough to kill you.”

Gu Xiaoman's tone was very cold.

But when she saw Qinglong's methods, her mood became much heavier.

Master Bai Xiu's Extinguish Candle Arrow, coupled with Meng Xizhou's Light Suppression, did not gain even the slightest advantage!

This Divine War was much more difficult to fight than she had imagined!

"Is that so?"

Qinglong smiled instead of getting angry: "This is my main domain… If possible, I would like Gu Changzhi to be reborn directly and have a good fight with me."

Qinglong, sitting on the throne, looked around his Divine Realm.

"Apart from Gu Changzhi, I really can't think of anyone who can be my opponent after traveling across the five continents?"

He mocked and smiled: "Bai Shu and Lin Lei are not good… As for you, you are even worse!"

Along with this voice falling.

Qinglong stretched out his finger and gently pointed to a certain direction at the end of the cloud domain. The void there was instantly torn apart, and a muffled groan sounded—

A figure fell out of the clouds!

Tsukimono… or rather, the Traveler himself, looked pale at the moment, and a lot of blood spilled from his nose!

"A lingering alien remnant soul, dare to take the initiative to step into my Divine Realm?"

Qinglong's eyes were full of killing intent: "Do you know that I have wanted to kill you for a long time. If it weren't for the great cause, when the Doru River mutated, I would have left the Five Continents and slaughtered your Manchu clan!"

The Traveler's expression was very ugly.

Qinglong's Wine Strike directly landed on his heart!

He had just woken up not long ago, and the most fragile place was his heart…

Relying on a single Fire Seed was not enough to "protect himself"!

The Traveler knew very well that there were also differences between the God Seats. If he participated in this Divine War, he had to act cautiously… Many years ago, the Wine God Seat was blown up by Gu Changzhi with two punches. If he was not careful enough, a similar tragedy would be staged at the tip of the Source Tower!

The top God Seats held the power to kill at will in their palms!

"Extinguish Candle, Gu Changzhi's letter, Light Fire Seed, Traveler Fire Seed…"

Qinglong looked at the four people in front of him and asked gently: "Is this all you have?"

At this moment, the clouds in the Source Tower Divine Realm suddenly began to surge violently.

Qinglong on the throne, although his figure was slender, gave people an infinitely tall illusion at this moment.

A strong sense of oppression came from the sky.

Cloud Mirror, Wuliang, Wine Strike.

After five years of tragic war, Qinglong showed his "methods" to the four people who came to challenge him… Having lived for a hundred years, the origins and accumulated transcendent source matter controlled by this Sky God Seat were truly amazing.

This was a God reaching the Heavens!

In Gu Xiaoman's heart, at this moment, she uncontrollably felt "despair."

"You are indeed very strong…"

A faint trace of blood overflowed from the corner of Meng Xizhou's lips.

She had recovered from the shock of the Wine Strike and wiped the blood with the back of her hand at this moment.

Under the cover of the Light Fire Seed, her injuries recovered extremely quickly.

In two or three seconds, the blood was burned dry.

"But these abilities may not be as powerful as you said, right?"

Meng Xizhou smiled faintly, and suddenly said: "If your Wuliang can really block all the power in the world, then how could you be frozen on the throne?"

As soon as these words came out.

The temperature of the Source Tower suddenly dropped by several degrees.

Qinglong's expression was a little subtle.

Traveler, Gu Xiaoman, and Bai Xiu… They had actually noticed long ago that Qinglong had been sitting down to face the enemy all along.

Was it because the opponent was too weak and not worth getting up?

No.

The throne Qinglong was sitting on had been shrouded in thick fog, but under the flushing of the holy light just now, the fog dissipated, revealing the base that was condensed into solid ice!

His lower body, along with the throne, was frozen!

Under this circumstance, whether he was unwilling to get up or unable to get up… everyone present had an answer in their hearts.

"Lin Lei and Bai Shu's attacks eventually hurt you."

Meng Xizhou said quietly: "Also, if I remember correctly, the Extinguish Candle just now also made you bleed… Are you unwilling to use Wuliang, or is it too late to use Wuliang?"

Qinglong was silent.

"There is no perfect ability in this world, and even the God Seat must have its weaknesses."

Bai Xiu's voice resounded above the sky.

His words, accompanied by thunder, shook the four directions of the Source Tower Divine Realm!

"The prerequisite for Wuliang to block… must be in one's own mental perception."

"In other words, Wuliang cannot block unknown damage."

Bai Xiu said expressionlessly: "So even when you fought with Meng Xizhou, you have been locking your spiritual thoughts on me. You cannot predict the next arrow's landing point of Extinguish Candle, your Wuliang… cannot block the Extinguish Candle Arrow."

Earlier, Meng Xizhou poured down all the origins of light!

At such an important moment, Qinglong did not look back.

Because he had already captured Meng Xizhou's attack… Wuliang could block this attack, but Bai Xiu's Extinguish Candle Arrow was different!

If he reacted a little slower, the next arrow of Extinguish Candle might injure him again!

After Bai Xiu finished speaking.

The entire Source Tower Divine Realm fell into a brief silence.

"…Wonderful."

After a long time.

Qinglong on the throne uttered two words with a gratified expression.

These two words made Bai Xiu frown.

"I don't have many regrets in my life. If I think about it carefully, there seem to be only two."

"Not having a duel with Gu Changzhi is one."

"Not having another battle with the Extinguish Candle master who defeated me back then is the other."

Crack! Crack!

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of ice slag breaking below Qinglong's throne.

The sound of this ice slag breaking caused the expressions of everyone present to change.

"Do you know why I haven't killed you all along?"

Qinglong looked at Bai Xiu, his eyes full of compassion and pity, "I hope you live and grow to be strong enough, and then shoot that arrow at me… When this day comes, I can personally make up for the regrets of the past."
