Chapter 277: Chapter 262: The Ancient Battlefield is about to Emerge_1

The feeling of being spied upon lasted for only a moment, yet in that instant, it seemed as though all secrets had nowhere to hide.

But the duration was so brief that Li Cheng couldn’t locate the source of the surveillance.

It even made Li Cheng feel like it was an illusion.

There was no time to think further, as the sharp gaze from within the corpse qi demanded all of Li Cheng’s vigilant attention.

Using the Rule of Fire to invoke the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame, a terrifying heatwave swept through, rapidly pushing back the corpse qi. Within a few breaths, the owner of the gaze appeared before Li Cheng.

He was a middle-aged man with a distinguished aura, who, despite sitting on the ground, exuded an oppressive presence as though he could uphold the heavens and the earth.

His body was intact, not like those of the lower members of the Corpse Clan with bodies full of rotting flesh; his complexion was merely a bit pale.

Standing a hundred meters apart, Li Cheng halted and focused intently on the Divine Corpse while the latter also sized up Li Cheng.

“To comprehend the Rule of Fire to completeness in this era is admirable, truly admirable!” the Divine Corpse spoke.

According to the Confucian Sect, this Divine Corpse belonged to an era long past, its body perfectly preserved, and it had given birth to Spiritual Wisdom in this one.

However, the corpse qi within this Divine Corpse was equivalent to that of the Perfect Immortal Emperor Realm. With the world lacking, he possessed a divine body but couldn’t become a true Deity.

Li Cheng could sense that the Law of Death this Divine Corpse with newly acquired Spiritual Wisdom had comprehended exceeded that of the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Emperor. Yet, it hadn’t reached seventy thousand Laws, far from the ultimate count of one hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred.

If it could comprehend the Law of Death to completeness, leveraging the advantages of his Divine Corpse body, it might be feasible for him to step into the God Realm and become a Corpse God.

The Confucian Sect used the Haoran Justice Air to consolidate the Formation to suppress it, perhaps to prevent it from finding the Immortal Artifact of the Law of Death and reaching a complete understanding, thereby becoming a formidable enemy of all living beings.

But this Divine Corpse was intact, making it virtually impossible to erase its newly born Spiritual Wisdom.

Li Cheng paid no attention to the Divine Corpse, advancing within the Formation, remaining on guard while scrutinizing the Formation.

Seeing that Li Cheng ignored him, the Divine Corpse, still seated, couldn’t help but say, “Fellow Daoist, you’ve achieved completion in the Rule of Fire, do you know that each Law corresponds to a Divine Pattern?”

“One hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred Divine Patterns gathered in an Immortal Infant will transform it into a Divine Child, and the appearance of a Divine Child can trigger the Divine Tribulation, which, through its power, transforms an Immortal Body into a divine one, bestowing the status of a

Deity.”

Li Cheng stopped walking and calmly looked at the Divine Corpse, Are you suggesting the method of gathering Divine Patterns in exchange for your freedom?”

The Divine Corpse nodded, “Right. The Confucian Sect confines me here, fearing I would bring calamity to the living world. I swear that if I’m set free, I will immediately head to the Netherworld and never cause harm to the living.” “Li Cheng, don’t believe his words. Once he breaks free from the constraints of the Formation, nobody will be able to contain him, and the living world will become his hunting ground,” Sect Leader Yun’s voice sounded.

At some point, Sect Leader Yun had arrived outside the Formation, warily watching the Divine Corpse who was seated in meditation.

The Divine Corpse glanced at Sect Leader Yun and then turned back to Li Cheng, “With your Cultivation at such a level where it cannot advance further, the only way up is to become a deity. The key to that elevation lies in the Divine Patterns. Don’t you want to learn how to condense Divine Patterns?”

“In the past, you could condense Divine Patterns by traveling the Divine Path, but to my knowledge, the Divine Path is broken!

“Looking across all realms nowadays, only someone born from a Divine Corpse like myself knows the method to condense Divine Patterns.”

The Three-way Abyss was destroyed, the entrance to the Netherworld sealed, and the entryway to the Divine Realm whereabouts unknown, perhaps confirming that the Divine Path mentioned by the Divine Corpse was indeed broken.

Li Cheng fell silent. To condense Divine Patterns merely by traveling the Divine Path? That suggested that this so-called Divine Path indeed contained a method for assembling Divine Patterns, or perhaps it was essentially a device that aided in their assembly.

Regardless of which, it suggested that the Divine Path was constructed by Deities.

If Deities built the Divine Path, it was not necessarily the only means available. “Li Cheng, be careful not to fall for his tricks!” Sect Leader Yun spoke with mounting concern.

This member of the Corpse Clan could exercise some of the Divine Corpse’s powers. Without the collective strength of the Confucian Sect to suppress it, who could stand as its match? Thus, how could they let it out?

Li Cheng nodded with a smile and started to leave the Formation, “Sect Leader Yun, this Formation is intact, and the person who set it up is extremely skilled. I’m unable to strengthen it further on this foundation. Please forgive me!” Sect Leader Yun breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Previously, under the Formation’s suppression, this Corpse Clan member was always asleep. Recently it awoke, and I feared it would break the Formation, which is why I asked you to come. If even you are unable to reinforce it, there’s no one else in this world who can.”

“In that case, we can only hope it cannot break the Formation.”

Li Cheng nodded. The person who had set up the Formation was of exceptional skill, not inferior to his own Array Mastery; thus, there was no need for him to strengthen it further, as it was already in the strongest state.

“As for his talk about condensing Divine Patterns, it must be deceitful because according to the records, the Divine Path is the only way to condense Divine Patterns. There isn’t any special method,” Sect Leader Yun added.

The records of the Confucian Sect are unparalleled, said to possess tomes from several eras past.

Being the leader of the Confucian Sect, Sect Leader Yun naturally had read extensively.

Li Cheng nodded, “Elder, I have always heard that the Confucian Sect’s records are the most comprehensive. I wish to broaden my knowledge, and wonder if it might be convenient?”

Stroking his beard, Sect Leader Yun smiled, “The Confucian Sect always welcomes those who are fond of reading. You enjoy reading, so we naturally welcome you heartily.”

As they conversed, the two had already left the underground.
