Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!

"Emperor Xuankong has sent a message, inviting us to the Xuankong Imperial City for a chat!" Kong Linfeng's Message Jade Slip lit up.

Li Cheng nodded, "Let's go. With Uncle Master Dragon Emperor here, there's little we can do to help."

Stepping through the Transmission Array and transferring several times, the trio arrived at the Xuankong Imperial City, only to see Emperor Xuankong already waiting for them outside the array.

Upon seeing the three of them, Emperor Xuankong approached with a look of self-blame, clasping his hands in apology, "It is my negligence that has led you into danger. I apologize!"

Li Cheng returned the gesture, saying nothing, but he could tell that the Emperor Xuankong before him was merely an incarnation, which was quite different from the real body he had seen previously, and its cultivation wasn't as high as his true body's.

"Your Majesty has devoted himself to fighting the Evil Demons with all his might. It is we who have drawn Your Majesty's attention away, and we are the ones who should apologize!" Kong Linfeng bowed deeply.

Emperor Xuankong shook his head and sighed, "Right now, only this incarnation of mine and two other Divine Emperors are defending the Imperial City. I have looked into it specially and have some very bad news!"

The latter part was directed at the Divine Child.

Emperor Xuankong continued, "Both of your mansions are enveloped by formations. They appear normal from the outside, but after I broke through them using the city's protective formation, it was discovered that no one in your residences has survived!"

Despair flashed in the eyes of the Divine Child, followed by a self-deprecating smile, "Having dealt with the Evil Demons, this criminal has no face to meet Your Majesty. Please grant me death as punishment!"

Emperor Xuankong sighed. When he had broken through the formations, he understood that the Evil Demons had infiltrated the Imperial City and threatened the families of these two individuals to force them to capture Li Cheng.

Although they did as told, their families had not been spared after their failure—not a single one remained!

"Your Majesty, the general acted under compulsion. Could you perhaps be lenient?" Kong Linfeng hurriedly spoke up.

Emperor Xuankong shook his head, "General Cheng, you've followed me for three hundred million years now haven't you? You should know my temperament. All matters may have a sliver of hope left, except for dealings with Evil Demons; those are utterly inexcusable!"

Even though the general had been coerced, in Emperor Xuankong's view, he still had a choice, he just made the wrong one!

The Divine Child knelt down, "This criminal understands!"

Emperor Xuankong exhaled, "If you're willing, go to Xuanmo Pass then. If not, I can send you off right now."

Xuanmo Pass was precisely where the Xuankong Divine Dynasty fought against the Evil Demons.

Emperor Xuankong's implication was suggesting that he go there to drag some Evil Demons down with him!

This was inhuman, but Emperor Xuankong knew that General Cheng would definitely go, to charge into the Evil Demons' army and self-destruct, seeking revenge for his family.

Sure enough, General Cheng looked up, gratitude flickering in his eyes as he hastily bowed his head, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for fulfilling my wish!"

Li Cheng lifted the seal, his heart complicated, momentarily unsure of what to say.

To say General Cheng was wrong—he was merely trying to give his family a chance to live.

General Cheng, in his Divine Child state, simply condensed a body again and gave another bow towards Emperor Xuankong before stepping onto the Transmission Array.

Emperor Xuankong let out a sigh, not speaking out until General Cheng had disappeared, "In the end, it is my fault for failing to protect his family."

This was the imperial city, where the Evil Demons surreptitiously took control over someone's family, so Emperor Xuankong's claim wasn't wrong.

But now was not the time to take responsibility. Emperor Xuankong quickly composed himself and said, "Li Cheng, Xuankong Domain isn't safe. I'll send you to Mansion Venerable City!"

He was also worried about Li Cheng getting into trouble here.

Li Cheng felt somewhat guilty. Because of him, or rather due to him, he didn't know how many had died.

But Li Cheng was also very clear, that if he kept running around outside, more would die because of him!

Should he really go back into hiding?

Could he really be at peace with that?

He could not!

With this thought, Li Cheng clenched his fist and said, "Your Majesty, Mansion Venerable City is the main battlefield for Divine Venerable powerhouses. I'd rather not go there. I'll go to Xuanmo Pass instead!"

Emperor Xuankong was taken aback and hastily shook his head, "No, if you were to go, the Evil Demons would surely trigger full-scale war. By then, without awaiting the outcome at Mansion Venerable City, we here might not be able to hold out any longer!"

Kong Linfeng also nodded, "Li Cheng, listen to Emperor Xuankong. You'd best return to Mansion Venerable City for seclusion!"

Li Cheng shook his head resolutely. If it was before, he might have gone back into seclusion to study the segment of the World Divine Tree.

But now, seeing General Cheng's plight, Li Cheng could no longer rest easy.

Although he might not be proficient in combat and seldom fought, the war between the two races was partly because of him. As the instigator, he could no longer continue to hide and had to contribute, even if only modestly.

"Now we've reached a critical stage, as long as Mansion Venerable City emerges victorious, all the Evil Demons from Land Puppet Mansion will retreat. There's no need for you to go to the battlefield. If you really want to help, you'd better refine pills and craft artifacts in Mansion Venerable City," Xiao Changting also advised.

Li Cheng still shook his head, "I've made up my mind!"

With that, Li Cheng stepped onto the Transmission Array, sensed the earlier transmission fluctuations left by General Cheng, and activated the array.

Emperor Xuankong and the other two wanted to stop him but it was already too late, they could only watch helplessly as Li Cheng disappeared on the Transmission Array.

"This..." Xiao Changting was full of helplessness.

Emperor Xuankong forced a smile and shook his head, "Forget it, my true body is over there, as long as the Divine Venerable from the Evil Demons doesn't make a move, I can ensure his safety."

The scenery before Li Cheng's eyes changed, and he arrived above a desolate wilderness.

Releasing his Divine Sense, he saw that the so-called Xuanmo Pass was a million miles ahead, where formations were densely arrayed and countless powerful auras surged.

Through his Divine Sense, Li Cheng saw General Cheng had already charged out of Xuanmo Pass and was flying towards the Evil Demon camp.

Soon after, a blinding white light rose from the Evil Demon camp, like a fierce sun falling from the sky, forcing people to squint their eyes.

The next moment, a scalp-numbing Divine Power Fluctuation swept through the heavens and earth. The air trembled, the ground shook, and countless Evil Demons turned to ash.

Also turned to ash was General Cheng!

Li Cheng sighed and used Instantaneous Movement.

At Xuanmo Pass, Emperor Xuankong's true body stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes showing sorrow, "Old Cheng, farewell!"

Whoosh!

Just then, Li Cheng's figure dashed away, charging towards the Evil Demon camp.

Emperor Xuankong frowned, "This kid!"

The Evil Demon camp was hundreds of thousands of miles away, but Li Cheng arrived almost instantaneously. His Law field expanded to cover a thousand miles, continuously bringing all the Evil Demons in his path into it.

Once inside the Domain, those Evil Demons never appeared again.

Emperor Xuankong arrived with more than ten Divine Emperor powerhouses, only to see Li Cheng had become like a reaping machine for Evil Demons. Even Evil Demons in the Divine Emperor Realm couldn't stop Li Cheng's advance.

"Your Majesty, is this person Li Cheng? This is too exaggerated, isn't it? He's only at the early stage of the Divine King Realm!" exclaimed one general in disbelief.

A look of incredulity spread across Emperor Xuankong's face as he murmured, "Indeed, it is somewhat exaggerated. Even late-stage Divine Emperor Evil Demons are being casually slain by him!"

"He's using the Space-Time Law. Take notice, the attacks from those Divine Emperor Evil Demons become extremely slow when they are a few miles from him, allowing him to easily dodge, while his attacks are shaking space, squeezing those Evil Demons to death within it."

The more than ten people had come to protect Li Cheng, but at this moment, they were instead admiring Li Cheng's astonishing methods.

Wherever he passed, not a single Evil Demon within a thousand miles could escape alive!

The Time Law protected his body, while the Space Law swept across a thousand miles, crushing everything in its path!

When had they ever seen such a scene?

"Interesting, Li Cheng, famous in Land Puppet Mansion, whose three Pill Artifact Arrays are deemed supreme – who would have thought his combat power would be so formidable!" From deep within the Evil Demon camp, a rough voice emerged.

Hearing this voice, the more than ten generals beside Emperor Xuankong all turned their gaze toward him.

For years, the reason the Xuankong Divine Dynasty had managed to defend Xuanmo Pass was largely because Emperor Xuankong and the speaker were evenly matched.

And keep in mind, Emperor Xuankong was at the Complete level of the Divine Emperor Realm!

Whoosh!

From deep within the Evil Demon camp, a ten-zhang-tall (approximately 30 meters) giant stalked into the air!

With a stature of thirty meters and an aura as substantial as mountains, demonic Qi roiled around him.

Li Cheng halted his steps as Emperor Xuankong and the more than ten generals swiftly arrived, standing alongside him.

Emperor Xuankong declared, "Giant Demon Emperor, your opponent is noble me!"

The Giant Demon Emperor let out a cold laugh as his thirty-meter-tall body rapidly expanded, transforming into three thousand meters, "Emperor Xuankong, the time has come to send you on your way!"

Li Cheng turned his head to look at Emperor Xuankong and transmitted a message, "I should be able to suppress him for a short while with the power of space. Your Majesty, seize the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on him!"
