Chapter 864 Divine Light from the Heavens

“As one of the six major Divine Clans of the Celestial Court, the Wind Clan is known as an immortal sect that stands out above the rest. I wonder if the other Divine Clans know about the nasty things you’re doing here,” said Li Mu.

He was indignant.

The lord of the Wind Clan said with a poker face, “Nasty things? Ha-ha, it doesn’t matter if they know about that. What can they do anyway? Nobody dares to intervene in what I want to do!”

“Screw you!”

Those words made Li Mu boil with rage.

“How could he be so shameless?

“Has he forgotten that he was forced to cut off a hand at the Immortal-Devil Assembly?”

“It’s an evil practice to kill innocent people and offer living people as sacrifices. How dare you do that? Aren’t you afraid of being punished by the heavens?” Li Mu questioned the people of the Wind Clan in a harsh tone.

“We’ve just killed a few lowly mortals who are inferior to dogs. How could we be punished by the heavens?” The lord of the Wind Clan raised his eyes and said arrogantly, “Why should the heavens stand on the side of weaklings?”

Yu Jingfeng laughed and said, “Master, Li Mu is also a mortal. His blood is hundreds of times better than that of ordinary mortal practitioners. If we could use him as a sacrifice, we would definitely summon the gods with half the effort, and maybe we could awaken the second-level ancient gods.”

When the several elders of the Wind Clan heard that, their eyes lit up.

“That’s right!”

“Li Mu has gotten on the three lists, and his power is comparable to the combined power of thousands of or even tens of thousands of ordinary mortal practitioners. If we could use him as a sacrifice and grind him using the giant millstone, we would surely activate a tactical deployment that could summon higher-level gods.”

A smile slowly spread across the face of the lord of the Wind Clan. “That’s right. You’ve reminded me. Ha-ha-ha, this is the heavens’ will. They’ve sent Li Mu to help me… Take action and get him dead or alive.”

The elders of the Wind Clan in the Deity Realm immediately took action at the same time.

At such a critical moment, they didn’t care about morality or seniority at all.

A great crisis came like a flood.

Li Mu felt the extremely terrifying energy coming at him.

At this critical moment, he unleashed his full potential.

He activated the primordial Qi in his body, exerted all his physical strength without regard to the eight cracks in his spine, and finally broke free from the suppression of the lord of the Wind Clan.

“Back off!”

He shoved the young man towards the bronze chariot and thrust the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword in his hand. As the broadsword flashed, countless beams of light shot out in succession.

Without any hesitation, he performed the Somersault Cloud skill and conjured up more than ten phantoms of himself in an instant.

The bronze chariot rumbled.

The bronze horses pulling the chariot galloped like streaks of lightning toward the big hole in the wall of the black temple.

“Let’s go.”

Li Mu grabbed the young man by the shoulder and leaped onto the carriage of the bronze chariot.

“Are you still trying to escape?”

The lord of the Wind Clan took action. He rushed to Li Mu in the blink of an eye and did a palm strike.

Bang!

“Puff…”

Li Mu failed to dodge the blow and got hit. His arm bones were broken instantly. He felt like his internal organs were burning, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then fell backward like a kite on a broken string.

He tried his best to protect the young man.

The two of them were separated from the bronze chariot.

“I’m going to kill you today and offer your bones and blood to the gods. I’ll go to Randeng Temple and kill your master when I successfully summon the second-level ancient gods and become invincible in the world.”

The lord of the Wind Clan approached Li Mu aggressively and attacked relentlessly.

As a master at the intermediate level of the Deity Realm, he was much more powerful than Li Mu. Every move that he made was powerful, accompanied by the Taoist Principles and countless flickering runes.

Li Mu was completely overwhelmed.

He had no choice but to retreat again and again. He was forced to retreat toward the giant white millstone.

Obviously, the lord of the Wind Clan wanted to force Li Mu onto the giant white millstone and grind him to death.

“Mr. Li, just go! Don’t worry about me,” the young man suddenly said.

He had been in a state of extreme horror and mental instability.

Without saying anything, Li Mu still tried to protect the young man.

“Mr. Li, I can’t get you involved. My master, his wife, and his daughter are all dead. I don’t want to live anymore. Please leave me alone… If you can get out of here alive, please take revenge for the mortals who have died miserably,” the young man shouted.

His mind became extremely clear, and all his fears were gone. He was unprecedentedly courageous and firm.

As soon as he finished speaking, he started running toward the giant white millstone.

“He’s just throwing his life away.”

The lord of the Wind Clan and his men did not care at all.

Li Mu reached out his hand backward, but he failed to catch the young man.

He felt a strong force bursting out behind him. The young man was determined to destroy the white millstone with his own life.

“What a fool,” Yu Jingfeng sneered.

When the people of the Wind Clan stuffed victims between the two plates of the giant white millstone to offer sacrifices, they would always break the victims’ scapulae to ensure that nothing would go wrong. Yu Jingfeng believed that it was impossible for a mortal practitioner to destroy the giant white millstone through self-destruction.

The other masters of the Wind Clan mostly thought the same way.

However, they were surprised to find that there were even stronger energy waves from the young man.

“Is that… Yin Lightning?”

“Damn it! How can he possess that kind of thing…”

At some point in time, a purple Yin Lightning appeared in the young man’s hand. Fully activated, the Yin Lightning cracked and released a terrifying burst of energy.

The lord of the Wind Clan and other elders of the Wind Clan in the Deity Realm were almost scared out of their wits.

The giant white millstone looked ordinary, but it was actually the core divine object of the entire sacrificial ritual for summoning gods. It took the Wind Clan hundreds of years to complete this white millstone.

Once it was destroyed, the Wind Clan’s hard work over hundreds of years would go to waste.

All the masters of the Wind Clan had no time to attack Li Mu anymore. They immediately rushed to the white millstone to block the two destructive forces and prevent it from being destroyed.

“Mr. Li, hurry up and run…”

The young man looked back at Li Mu at the last moment before he exploded.

Li Mu felt that he would probably never forget the look on the young man’s face for the rest of his life.

It was a look of calmness mixed with expectation suggesting that the young man was mentally relieved and resigned to die with dignity.

Li Mu knew what the young man was expecting.

“Rest assured. I will surely take revenge for you.”

He swore an oath silently.

Before the fight began, he gave that purple Yin Lightning to the young man for self-protection. He didn’t expect that the young man would use it like this.

However, there was no point in thinking about anything else at such a moment.

The opportunity could not be missed.

He performed the Somersault Cloud skill to the extreme.

He surveyed the surroundings with his Third Eye. Then, he moved swiftly like a phantom, made the best use of the time the young man had won for him, got out of the encirclement, and rushed towards the bronze war chariot.

Boom!

The sound of an explosion rang out, and terrifying blast waves surged through the air.

Several masters of the Wind Clan in the Deity Realm joined hands and diverted the energy produced by the young man’s self-explosion and the Yin Lightning. The young man turned into powder, and the giant white millstone was saved.

The masters of the Wind Clan broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

“Chase Li Mu down! Don’t let him escape!”

“He can’t escape from the Temple of Blood. Capture him.”

The lord of the Wind Clan and the other elders of the Wind Clan in the Deity Realm began to pursue Li Mu.

Li Mu landed on the bronze chariot and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Under the influence of his injury caused by the lord of the Wind Clan and the worsening of the existing injury in his spine due to forceful exertion of physical strength, he almost collapsed in the carriage of the bronze chariot.

However, he couldn’t fall.

He knew very well that he was still in danger.

Escaping back to the gloomy temple was the only option under the current circumstances. However, the temple was under the control of the Wind Clan.

“What should I do?”

Even though Li Mu had gone through countless desperate situations and accumulated rich experience in escaping, he was still at a loss for what to do.

The lord of the Wind Clan and his men came from the distance.

“Ha-ha, you little bastard, where are you going?”

The lord of the Wind Clan was very familiar with the hall of the temple. He directly attacked from several kilometers away. A palm print flew toward the bronze chariot like a meteor.

Li Mu fought back to protect the war chariot despite his injury.

Boom!

The loud sound of an explosion rang out.

The tremendous force generated by the explosion lifted the bronze war chariot. Li Mu hurriedly cast a spell to maintain the balance of the chariot.

Just then, a divine jade statue fell out of the carriage due to the violent movement of the chariot.

“Damn it!”

Li Mu hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and caught the divine jade statue before it fell on the ground.

By this time, the lord of the Wind Clan had gotten very close.

“Ha-ha, you little bastard! Go to hell.”

He drew his wind sword and struck at Li Mu mercilessly.

Li Mu exerted strength through his arms and threw the divine jade statue into the carriage of the bronze war chariot. Almost at the same time, the wind sword cut his neck, and his head flew out.

The lord of the Wind Clan came to Li Mu’s body with a sneer.

“A peerless genius? You’re just…”

Before he finished speaking, the look on his face suddenly changed. He couldn’t find a way to finish his words.

The several elders of the Wind Clan in the Deity Realm finally caught up with him. When they saw Li Mu’s dead body, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

“Is he dead?” One of them asked.

The lord of the Wind Clan gritted his teeth. “We’ve been fooled by this little bastard.”

There was no bloodstain on Li Mu’s body lying on the ground. The body gradually changed and finally turned into a palm-sized wooden doll. The ancient divine runes on the doll had cracked.

“Could it be the legendary Scapegoat Doll?”

“How could Li Mu have such a treasure?”

The elders in the Deity Realm were quite shocked.

The lord of the Wind Clan snorted coldly. “I have to see how many Scapegoat Dolls he has. Chase him down and kill him every time you see him. I don’t believe that he won’t die.”

The Temple of Blood was just like a boundless maze full of mysteries that were incomprehensible to outsiders. The people of the Wind Clan had surveyed and investigated the temple for many years, so they were very familiar with its terrain and landform and knew well about the tactical deployments in it.

After a short while, several masters of the Wind Clan in the Deity Realm caught sight of the bronze chariot in front of them.

Li Mu was driving the bronze chariot, feeling weak.

“What am I going to do?”

He had used the Escape Talisman and Scapegoat Doll that he took from the two elders of the Rain Clan, but it seemed that he still couldn’t escape from the Temple of Blood.

He felt exhausted and found it difficult to activate his Eye of Flaws. The eight cracks had spread across his whole spine, and he was almost paralyzed.

He didn’t have any extra strength to fight.

Blood flowed from the wounds on his body and dyed the carriage red.

The divine jade statue that he had rescued was also stained with his blood.

Now, he was racking his brains for a way out. He didn’t notice that the divine jade statue was slowly absorbing his blood like a sponge absorbing water.

The divine jade statue silently gave off a faint breath of life.

“Li Mu, you can’t escape.”

The lord of the Wind Clan caught up with Li Mu and launched another attack.

Countless terrifying wind swords appeared all over the sky and then enveloped Li Mu and the bronze chariot. Obviously, the lord of the Wind Clan wanted to kill Li Mu completely with one strike.

Having lost the strength to fight back, Li Mu smiled bitterly.

“Am I really going to die here?”

Just when the bronze chariot and Li Mu were about to be destroyed, the divine jade statue behind Li Mu suddenly moved its eyes.

A beam of milky white light fell from the sky and hit the bronze chariot.

Surprisingly, Li Mu and the bronze chariot disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye, as if they had been teleported away by an Escape Talisman.

Boom!

The wind swords hit the ground like raindrops in a storm.

The lord of the Wind Clan opened his eyes wide. “What… What’s going on?”
