The Founder of Qi Cultivation, Reincarnates?

Mo Rong realized this was Li Shen’s plan all along. Sending everyone away and inciting Fang Chen’s strand of consciousness.

“Trying to suppress me? Don’t fuck with me you worm!!”

Mo Rong was enraged and his aura burst out to resist Li Shen's Domain suppression. The cavern couldn’t handle these two immense auras and completely collapse.

Mo Rong and Li Shen’s figures emerge from the collapsed mountain with a bang, sending rocks flying everywhere.

As they faced each other in the air, Mo Rong suddenly stretched his hand towards the fog below.

The blood-red fog in a thousand-meter radius heed his call and it began to swirl before moving towards him in a stream. However, the stream of blood-red fog suddenly trembled before 4/10 of it collapsed and went back to an inactive state.

Mo Rong seeing this had his face turn black. This was Fang Chen’s doing.

The stream of blood-red fog soon approached him and encapsulated his figure. The suppression Mo Rong felt from Li Shen’s Domain significantly lessened.

Mo Rong glared at Li Shen before he dashed forwards.

Li Shen’s right eye glowed pure golden while his left eye glowed a starry black light.

The two met in the air and both throughout a fist.

Mo Rong’s physique was already monstrous, as one could see from Li Shen’s entire arm breaking from just punching him. But with Li Shen’s two physique’s power revolving at full force inside his body, along with his Domain suppression, Li Shen was not much weaker than him physically.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

The two exchange numerous blows causing loud noises to be heard and massive shockwaves to be seen and felt from the sky.

They were fast in the air, extremely fast. Their figures only left blurs as they exchange blow after blow.

After half an incense's worth of time, Li Shen felt his arms becoming numb. Even with his Qi Sea suppressing Mo Rong, Mo Rong’s strength was still exceedingly terrifying as he was at the Nascent Soul Realm.

Li Shen was strong, but battling a Nascent Realm existence was not something he could accomplish at his current level.

It was because of Fang Chen's resistance from the inside that cause gaps to show in Mo Rong’s attacks, and with his Domain suppressing his overall strength that he stood a chance to battle Mo Rong. Who now had a quasi-level Nascent Soul Realm cultivation.

But if Mo Rong ever used Daoist Magic spells of the Nascent level, there was no way Li Shen could fully stand up to that level of power. That was unless he put his Heavenly Physique in overdrive to boost his Law manipulation, that was the only way he could possibly resist. But the consequences were not something he could imagine, losing his Spiritual Chaos Physique and Qi cultivation was the bare minimum.

However, luck seemed to be on Li Shen’s side, as Mo Rong looked to be unable to use Daoist Magic spells other than forming a serpent with his dark miasma energy.

That was right, Mo Rong had no Daoist Magic spells. Not because he hadn’t learned any, but because what he knew had been erased from his memories.

He could neither recall his past fully nor the countless Daoist Magic spells from his Qiong Qi race. Even his Legacy that every Divine Beast race naturally inherits, was entirely wiped clean from his mind.

His Primordial Soul had suffered a severe injury. If it wasn’t for the abundance and purity of Laws in this Dimension, his soul would have already dispersed and traversed the river of Samsara to reincarnate.

He could only use his strong cultivation to attack Li Shen with brute force. It was like having a knife but using it to hammer a nail instead of using it for its true purpose.
As Mo Rong conjured another Divine Serpent, it was immediately suppressed by Li Shen’s domain. With a wave of Li Shen's hand, Sword Qi made from the Time Qi in his domain formed and shot towards the Divine Serpent.

The Divine Serpent release an agonizing scream before it was slashed to death.

The Time Qi Swords didn’t pause and charged towards Mo Rong. Even more formed around him and slashed out at him.

Mo Rong was completely overwhelmed.

His hands waved and the blood-red fog around him formed a protective barrier that blocked several of the Time Qi swords, but some managed to bypass his barrier to land on his body.

Pitua!

Pitua!

Pitua!

Pitua!

Multiple Sword Qi stabbed into him, this resulted in blood flowing from the many wounds on his body.

Mo Rong landed on the collapsed mountain and his weakened figure dropped to one knee.

Mo Rong swallowed back the mouthful of blood threatening to escape his lips before he looked up at a descending Li Shen and said.

“You’re attacking me so viciously without any hesitation, aren’t you afraid you’ll kill your friend?”

“The wounds aren’t fatal.”

Li Shen simply said, which left Mo Rong clenching his teeth.

‘No, this can’t be happening. I need to return to the Celestial Realm. Something, something is telling me I need to return.’

Mo Rong’s determination to leave this place and go back to the Celestial Realm, was the only thing on his mind since he had woken up from his long slumber.

He didn’t know what happened to him to have been several injured and left to die in this place. He didn’t even know how he ended up in this separate dimension.

The only thing he did know was that he needed to return to the Celestial Realm quickly. The subconscious urge to return was so strong it frighten Mo Rong himself. He was afraid that this subconscious urge was because of something he couldn’t remember, something that was so important to him that even in death it was all he could think about.

Mo Rong was someone who didn’t care for a lot of things, the list he had was small. But from how strong this subconscious urge was to return to the Celestial Realm, to return to his home, this dreadful feeling made him speculate that it could be related to the survival of his Qiong Qi race.

He was scared, all of his family and his entire race might be gone while he was stuck in here. He didn’t want to believe it, he couldn’t believe it, he refused to believe it!!

He will return no matter what, no god or demon was going to stand in his way, especially not this Godling and his followers.

Mo Rong’s blood-red eyes gained a bit of insanity as he pushed out his palms to his side.

The blood-red fog surrounding him suddenly charged towards him and started to enter his body.

Li Shen seeing this had his face go dark.

“STOP!!”

If Li Shen let this continue, Mo Rong was going to corrupt not only his soul but Fang Chen’s as well. Li Shen immediately rushed towards Mo Rong to stop him, but Mo Rong suddenly lifted his head and release a bellowing roar.

A shockwave blasted from his body that slammed into Li Shen, sending him flying backwards with blood spurting from his lips.

The entire Demon Grotto shook and the blood-red fog that covered it began to boil.

Tai and the others appeared as they were forced out of the pocket dimension. This blood-red fog was even destabilizing space. If they stayed in Tai’s pocket dimension it might collapse, if that happened not even their corpses would be left behind.

Jun looked around at the boiling blood-red fog and said in astonishment.

“This blood-red fog is giving off vitality?!”

Lihua looked around for a moment, then turned to look at Mo Rong and Li Shen’s battlefield where the blood-red fog was charging towards.

“This blood-red fog, it might actually be blood.”

“What?!”

Jun and the others simultaneously yelled in surprise.

“Who’s blood is this? And so much?”

The Demon Grotto was not small, it was thousands of kilometers in length, and Li Shen had told them that this blood-red fog covered it entirely.

Lihua didn’t answer the question Fei Yin posed and instead said.

“I don’t think this Territory is a part of the territories in this Dimension. In other words, this place wasn’t naturally created like the rest of the Territories.”

The others went silent to contemplate Lihua’s words.

Lihua soon broke the silence and continued.

“Whatever possessed Fang Chen must have had a physical body. Didn’t Li Shen tell us the thing that possessed Fang Chen was a Divine Beast called a Qiong Qi?”

“Are you saying that the body of a Divine Beast is buried here? That would certainly explain the blood fog and the corruption of the land. Including little sister Qiang's roots and the Spiritual Beasts in this place.”

Fei Yin said solemnly from the side.


With that, they and Tai watched as the blood fog surged over to the battlefield several hundred meters away.

“We should go and help, this situation has become more than what that Demon can handle alone.”

Mu Fan after saying that, immediately stepped forwards to charge towards the battlefield, but Jun suddenly grabbed his forearm.

“Wait!”

The grip was tight and it forced Mu Fan to stop in his tracks.

Everyone turned to look at Jun, including an angered Mu Fan.

They saw that his eyes had turned completely white, as he looked around the area in shock.

“This-”

Jun couldn’t finish his words as his body shook while his face was full of excitement. He just realized something as the blood fog became active.

“What is it?”

Lihua seeing Jun’s excitement asked for everyone.

Whipping his head around to them, Jun said rather loudly in joy.

“It’s back, and I know how to save brother Chen!”
