The Great Ruler

In the Great Spirit Ancestor’s layer of the Four Saint Pagoda

A massacre resounded around the massive altar with Spiritual Energies and demonic aura clashing together, creating ear-deafening noises. At the same time, this also caused the layer to continuously tremble.

That’s because of the ones trying to protect the altar and destroy the altar, the experts of the Great Thousand World and Fiend Clans have started their war here...

There was a group gathered together at the north-west direction. It was Luo Li with Ling Xi, Wen Qingxuan and the rest of their guards around them.

Although their formation wasn’t remarkable, it was still a battlefield. Just the amount of Perfected Earth Sovereigns alone could be counted on the fingers of two hands, not including the Fiend Clans...

But fortunately, there wasn’t an existence like Shi Tianyou at this level. So the battle between the two sides was intense, but no one held the upper hand.

“Luo Li, what is that woman trying to do?” Wen Qingxuan poked Luo Li and cast her gaze over into the distance, where a charming woman was standing at the centre of the altar, dressed in white.

At this moment, Wen Qingxuan and everyone knew the name of that woman, Bai Xin’er. She was also Luo Li’s competitor this time, since her objective was also the Great Spirit Ancestor’s inheritance.

Bai Xin’er’s means were pretty great, since her surroundings were surrounded by formidable experts, with a few Perfected Earth Sovereigns forming into a luxurious formation.

So, they’re the ones that managed to get the closest to the altar and resist the charge from the Fiend Clans.

Protected in the circle, Bai Xin’er glanced at Luo Li from afar before her rosy lips were raised and she gently sat down.

Her hands swiftly formed seals and a halo of light gathered before spreading out above her head.

“She’s trying to wake the slumbering will of the Great Spirit Ancestor.” Luo Li narrowed her eyes at this sight.

In this level, there wasn’t anyone that could unleash the Sky Monarch’s soul fragment that was sealed. So that meant the Great Spirit Ancestor’s will was also asleep.

Naturally, if Bai Xin’er could communicate with the will of the Great Spirit Ancestor, she would be able to borrow his power and sweep all the Fiend Clans out of here. At that time, she would undoubtedly be the greatest contributor, and the Peerless Divine Ability, the Ancient Spirit Channelling Light would also fall into her hands.

“We have to stop her!” Ling Xi knitted her brows. If Bai Xin’er obtained the Ancient Spirit Channelling Light, then Luo Li would have failed this mission this time.

The reason why Mu Chen left everyone to Luo Li was so that they could help her accomplish her task. But if they failed despite that, they wouldn’t know how to answer to Mu Chen.

“I’ll go and disrupt her!” Long Xiang hammered his fists together and solemnly said. Although there were several Perfected Earth Sovereigns around Bai Xin’er, he wasn’t afraid.

But he was stopped by Luo Li while she shook her head. “The cultivation technique that she practices should be the Ancient Spirit Clan’s Great Spirit Sutra. It is said to be the same cultivation technique as the Great Spirit Ancestor, so she’s trying to use this technique to wake the Great Spirit Ancestor’s will.

“It’s a pretty good idea, but how could it be as easy as she imagined?” From the information that Luo Li has obtained, the Great Spirit Ancestor was the first to fall amongst the four Ancestors. So even if his will went into a deep slumber, it wasn’t easy to wake him up. Thus, Luo Li did not feel that Bai Xin’er could accomplish that task.

Seeing how calm Luo Li was, everyone also suppressed the anxiety in their hearts and watched.

As they calmed down, Bai Xin’er cast a glance at them, and after seeing no movements from them, she faintly smiled before she gently waved her hand towards the experts around her.

Those experts had also retracted their attention that was directed at Luo Li and they surrounded Bai Xin’er, protecting her.

“That woman is truly cautious about defending against us at all times.” Wen Qingxuan said with her brows raised as she spoke.

“Someone capable of becoming the Quasi-Holy Maiden of the Ancient Spirit Clan, how could they not be shrewd?” Luo Li smiled. Bai Xin’er came alone and managed to obtain so many experts who were willing to help her. Her means weren’t something that could be achieved by ordinary people.

As they spoke, the profound light above Bai Xin’er’s head became akin to a moon that shone onto this entire region.

The lustre spread out around the altar and the ancient tablet started to tremble. Bai Xin’er’s gaze flashed with joy while looking at it. However, the joy on her face didn’t last long. The tablet had returned to silence without moving.

Clenching her teeth, Bai Xin’er frantically unleashed the Spiritual Energy in her body. As light constantly dispersed, it had enveloped towards that tablet.

The Fiend Clans soon noticed her commotion, so they focused their attacks on her, but they were entirely blocked by the experts around her.

“Wake up, quickly!” Bai Xin’er bit on her lips as she constantly circulated the Great Spirit Sutra to try to contact the will of the Great Spirit Ancestor. However, she failed, since there wasn’t any reaction coming from it.

After trying for a long time, Bai Xin’er opened her eyes in the end with unhappiness filling her eyes before looking at the altar and muttered to herself. “Could it be that ascending the altar is the only way to wake the will of the Ancestor?”

But she would inevitably be obstructed by the Fiend Clans because of that, and if the Fiend Clans managed to get up the altar and awaken the Sky Monarch’s soul, then it’d get troublesome for them.

“Miss Xin’er, you failed?” A robust-built man approached and asked with concern.

Nodding her head, Bai Xin’er softly said, “It’s been hard on you guys.”

When that person saw Bai Xin’er’s gentle smile, his eyes instantly jolted. “Miss Xin’er, don’t be anxious. Wait for us to send you up to the altar; you will surely be able to wake the will of the Great Spirit Ancestor then.

“As for them, don’t worry about it. It was something that even you couldn’t accomplish, not to mention them.”

He naturally meant Luo Li’s group, since they knew that Luo Li was the greatest threat to Bai Xin’er herself.

Bai Xin’er gently smiled. “You can’t say that. We should be more cautious of Luo Li.”

As she spoke, her gaze looked in the direction of Luo Li’s party before their eyes suddenly narrowed when they saw that Luo Li had suddenly sat down.

Sensing Bai Xin’er’s gaze, Luo Li gently raised her head and her gaze interlocked with Bai Xin’er’s before they swiftly looked away.

Retracting her eyes, Bai Xin’er squinted her eyes. “Is Luo Li also intending on communicating with the will of the Great Spirit Ancestor?”

But a deep smile appeared on her face when she thought of that. She knew that Luo Li had only just recently been determined as the Quasi-Holy Maiden by Celestial Chi Yan. She never cultivated in the Ancient Spirit Clan, so as someone that didn’t possess the experience of cultivating in the Ancient Spirit Clan, it’s simply wishful thinking for her to communicate with the Great Spirit Ancestor.

“Luo Li, can you do it?” Wen Qingxuan worriedly asked from her side. When she saw how Bai Xin’er failed, she knew how tough it would be to communicate with the will of the Great Spirit Ancestor.

After all, Bai Xin’er had at least cultivated the Great Spirit Sutra, while Luo Li has never learned any Divine Ability or Cultivation Technique of the Ancient Spirit Clan.

Luo Li smiled. “Do you know why Celestial Chi Yan is so confident in me and feels that I can obtain the Ancient Spirit Channelling Light?”

Wen Qingxuan shook her head.

Luo Li chuckled as she replied, “It’s because I have cultivated the Luo Shen Celestial Body.”

Wen Qingxuan was even more confused. ‘What did the Luo Shen Celestial Body have to do with the Ancient Spirit Clan?’

Raising her face, Luo Li looked at the ancient altar. “Celestial Chi Yan has once said that in ancient times, this Great Spirit Ancestor was a man infatuated with love.”

“Who was he being infatuated with?” Ling Xi seemed to have slightly understood something.

Cunningly smiling, Luo Li replied, “He was infatuated with the last owner of the Luo Shen Celestial Body, who happens to by my Ancestor, Luo Shen!”

“I understand, now! You’re trying to use the beauty luring scheme... no wait, I mean beauty celestial body scheme to wake the will of the Great Spirit Ancestor!” Wen Qingxuan clapped her hands together and exclaimed in shock.

Blinking her eyes, Luo Li playfully said, “For the Ancient Spirit Channelling Light, I’m afraid that I have to sacrifice the beauty of my Ancestor a little...”

Wen Qingxuan and the rest exchanged looks. ‘Can that work?’

Luo Li did not speak anymore, but her hands joined together with boundless light sweeping out from her rear. Spiritual light instantly covered the heavens and earth with a gorgeous silhouette forming behind her.

The Luo Shen Celestial Body, the most beautiful Sovereign Celestial Body of the Great Thousand World!
