Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 565: Chapter 564: The Earth Immortal Monster is Here, The Earth Immortal Monster Explodes

Since the world collision, the Earth Immortal monster had lost its direction. The Immortal Realm did not recall it, and thus, it was left adrift in the universe.

It drifted for years, yet it could not discern any signs of the Jingyu World or any other.

During this time, its body transformed uncontrollably, morphing sporadically into a werewolf, and then into a lean woman with long limbs like a beanpole, a two-headed monster, and a muscle-bound sphere.

Suddenly, a rift appeared. Beyond was the alluring world it yearned to annihilate, beckoning to it.

Any world teeming with life was its target.

It forgot everything else, only remembering one mission— to kill.

It had barely taken a step and managed to roar when someone forcefully restrained it, rendering it incapable of movement.

What happened?

Like always, it tried to utilize the might of an Earth Immortal to sweep away all obstacles, only to realize an unseen force was suppressing its might.

Jiang Li, of course, wouldn’t allow it to act. The place was full of mortals, unable to withstand the might of an Earth Immortal.

“Once a generation’s prodigy, reduced to such a state.” Jiang Li, gazing at the two skulls, shook his head gently.

Whilst deciding how to kill the monstrosity, the rift in the sky shrank, morphed into symbols, and surged into the monster’s body.

Intuition told Jiang Li that this wasn’t a good omen. He exerted a bit more strength and crushed the two-headed monster.

The symbols turned into countless light feathers, sprinkling throughout the mortal world. Ignorant of their meaning, Jiang Li exterminated every single one, leaving none.

“The power of merit obtained this time is remarkably less than from killing the Honghu Messenger.”

…

“Boss, our funds have broken down, and the company is in the red. We really can’t build any more highways. If this continues, the inheritance that your father left you would be all spent!” The secretary pleaded with the boss, urging him not to recklessly waste money.

The construction of highways took a long time to yield benefits. After winning the bid, the Boss had used all the company’s assets for highway construction.

The secretary had no doubt that the boss wouldn’t even be able to pay her next salary.

A business giant sprawled across real estate, finance, entertainment, among other domains, had fallen to such a state.

As the boss was watching Zhao Minghan’s live concert, he paid no heed to the advice of the secretary, “Whether we’re in deficit isn’t important. The highway is already built. Zhao Minghan’s tour would reach the climax. Everything is ready, we’re only waiting for the right moment. The resurgence of the Destruction Alliance is today!”

“Come, see the star of tomorrow we’ve painstakingly fostered.” The boss pointed at Zhao Minghan, who was lip-syncing on TV.

The secretary had no interest in Zhao Minghan’s songs. If possible, she wished music could regress by thirty years.

Zhao Minghan’s tour route was planned according to the Destruction Alliance’s layout. His songs were gradually activating the formation. Once he reached the last stop, the formation would be completely activated, signifying the arrival of the Earth Immortal monster.

After the secretary had left, a spirit emerged behind the boss.

“Finally, the day has arrived. The plan has gone smoothly. How can those fools from the Mutual Aid Association fathom the plans of an Immortal?”

“Destruction, resurrection. I will offer the world as a sacrifice, to celebrate my rebirth!”

The boss pulled out a small book, which cataloged various oddities such as old ladies with cat faces, non-existent stations, slit-mouthed women, and the likes. It detailed how to exploit or avoid these urban legends.

“The Penglai Messenger once said, once we’ve summoned the Earth Immortal monster, the formation would dissociate it. The corpse of the Earth Immortal monster would turn into rules and scatter throughout the world.”

“These rules can be referred to as urban legends.”

The spirit behind the boss laughed excitedly, “The more people die from urban legends, the stronger their power becomes. Then, we, the Destruction Alliance, can exploit loopholes in the rules of the urban legends for resurrection and restore our strength!”

“Even if I can’t resurrect, the negative emotions born from people shrouded in urban legends will strengthen my power.”

The soul in question is cultivating the ‘Gloomy Heavenly Art’, a sleuth endowed in desolation.

The CEO is also quite exhilarated. What is the ultimate reliance in this world? Is it status or money? No, it is power. As long as one possesses absolute power, they possess absolute authority. A group from the Body Integration Realm resurrecting, who can stop them from annihilating the world?

How does it matter if the company faces a deficit or bankruptcy? Everything is worthwhile compared to the gains of the future.

“Listen, the Earth Immortal monster is roaring!”

A man and a soul trembling with excitement, the success of their plan was almost guaranteed with everything going as planned. Even the resurrection of Daoist Huiming and the Skeleton Demon Lord won’t be able to obstruct it.

They looked towards the sky, just to witness the haughty Earth Immortal monster being crushed into an attractive firework by Jiang Li.

The CEO rubbed his eyes, thinking it was a hallucination borne out of excitement.

…

Jiang Li has been maintaining his Divine Sense state, overseeing every word the CEO and the desolated Daoist exchange. The Hong Lake Envoy, urban legends, it was all starting to make sense.

“There indeed is a push from the Immortal Realm behind all this. This formation is complex, even I can’t understand it. They needed the assistance of Bai Hongtu; it must be the work of an Immortal.”

“The Qinxin World doesn’t possess any means to resist the Earth Immortal monster, it might develop into a nascent Heavenly Dao. The Immortal Realm wouldn’t allow such a situation arise, thus they brewed these urban legends, bringing calamity to the Qinxin World.”

“Perhaps the destruction of Jingyu World was also the work of the Hong Lake Envoy.”

“The Qinxin World has been exempt from the Fallen Immortal’s schemes, probably a part of the continuous plots crafted by the Hong Lake Messenger, to first destroy the Jingyu World, and then orchestrate the collision of the worlds to produce a fusion, subsequently sending over the souls of the Jingyu World for the next step of the plan.”

“Huiming Daoist is the disciple of the Hong Lake Envoy, who based on his understanding of Huiming Daoist, deduced the creation of a forbidden method while on death’s door.”

Jiang Li half guessed and half analyzed, to know the true facts he must find the Hong Lake Envoy.

Allowing the Ruin League to resurrect is merely a big pie, one that could never be realized, drawn by the Hong Lake Envoy.

Could a mere Heavenly Immortal overlook the rule of Samsara of life and death?

“Done.”

Jiang Li returned home to Wen Quan and passed a piece of paper to the chairman, which contained the information about the members of the Ruin League, letting the Mutual Aid Society handle the Ruin League themselves.

The Mutual Aid Society, now directly confronting the Ruin League, will only lead to the fall of the latter.

If the Skeleton Demon Lord loses his temper and acts out, it would be the end of the Ruin League even faster.

The supreme ruler witnessed the whole process through a satellite, unable to believe that the monster, horrifying enough to cause world destruction as described by the survivors of the Jingyu World, died just like that.

And it didn’t even have the strength to resist.

Although the supreme ruler already knew about the cultivation system, he still couldn’t grasp the position of the Mahayana Realm within the universe.

Neither Daoist Huiming nor the chairman were surprised by the effortless state of Jiang Li, they only felt a sense of satisfaction for the revenge served.

“Since the miscellaneous matters are handled, let’s now discuss the matter of inter-world connections.”

Jiang Li sat down, using a spell to create a three-dimensional map. Jiuzhou World, Ming Zhong World, Ring Universe, the Ancient World…all were included in it.

“Our Jiuzhou World is a peace-loving place that endorses mutual progress, mutual prosperity. I can tell you quite responsibly that not only one Earth Immortal monster exists, the true crisis hasn’t been resolved yet. Jiuzhou World has always strived to protect other worlds from invasion.”

“Up until now, eight worlds have signed the ‘Mutual Assistance Alliance’ with our Jiuzhou World, resulting in considerable progress in economy, cultivation and technology. Notably, the combination of cultivation and technology has been highly successful.”

“I don’t know whether the Qinxin World intends to establish diplomatic relations with Jiuzhou and other worlds?”
