Crack, crack——
Thunder raged and snarled above the Nine Heavens, suddenly appearing amidst the endless leaden clouds, which hung low as if about to fall onto the human world, bringing an overwhelming sense of oppressive pressure.
Countless bolts of lightning burst forth from within, the cold and solemn air seed to tingle the skin with a numbing sensation.
Plip, plop...
Perhaps it was the scorching heat brought by the thunder, causing the accumulated snowflakes in the clouds to begin lting into raindrops, and then, under the intense temperature, hurl down swiftly from the sky.
On the boundless expanse of a snowy plain at Divine Carving Ridge.
Soone instinctively raised their head, their eyelashes fluttering, their eyes reflecting the raindrops falling from above, magnifying continuously in their pupils.
Upon the raindrops, like mirrors, reflected the continuously collapsing Mysterious Temple, Strange Que, Mysterious Fog...
And that unrestrained, relaxed black-robed figure who slowly stepped out from the parted Mysterious Fog.
Under the mask adorned with golden monkey hair, a corner of the mouth slightly exposed beneath it curved into an arrogant arc.
All was silent between heaven and earth.
Only the muffled sound of the scorching raindrops from the sky hitting the snowy plains could be heard.
And that Divine Monkey taking one step after another out from the Mysterious Temple, accompanied by the scene of the Mysterious Temple collapsing behind him.
Everyone stared in a daze.
Even Lv Taibai, beneath those silver eyebrows, involuntarily squinted his black eyes slightly.
The Mysterious Temple...
Collapsed?!
This wasn’t the first ti Lv Taibai had seen such a scene. .
As a dual Absolute Peak expert, he naturally had also attacked the Mysterious Temple before. When the Temple God Divinity within the Mysterious Temple is fully extracted... the Temple God falls into slumber, leading to the Mysterious Temple collapsing.
This kind of collapse is different from the disappearance of the Mysterious Temple under the governance of the Su Family in the human world.
The latter is irreversible, completely vanishing from the human world, with even the Strange Que dissipating without a trace, as if it never existed.
The forr occurs because the Temple God Divinity is depleted, plunging it into slumber...
While the Mysterious Temple collapses, it doesn’t vanish completely. According to Lv Taibai’s speculation, it should have collapsed into the Strange Que.
The Strange Que still exists in reality, but it will remain sealed, akin to re-cultivating the Mysterious Temple, a process that could span as little as ten years, or as much as hundreds, or even thousands of years before the Strange Que reopens.
The Mysterious Temple in the Strange Que will reerge like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.
The Mysterious Temple collapsing behind the Divine Monkey is such a situation at this mont.
However, such a situation is actually extrely rare.
Lv Taibai was sowhat puzzled, even if the Divine Monkey took the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod, a Five Elders Upper Rank Divine Weapon... how could it cause the entire Mysterious Temple to collapse into the Strange Que and fall into slumber?!
Take a single Divine Weapon...
And it drains all the divinity of a Five Elders Upper Rank Temple God?!
The Divine Monkey...
No, Xi Xi’s father.
What exactly did you do?
Lv Taibai downed the milk tea in his cup in one gulp, his slender fingers tapping lightly on the table.
He had already guessed the Divine Monkey’s identity, although surprised, he could accept it.
Originally, Lv Taibai suspected Li Che was the Horse Face, he was even certain of it.
But...
Now it seems the Horse Face is soone else.
After all, he thought Horse Face was Li Che because of those strange chanisms Horse Face had, capable of remote attacks, and could explode, causing terrifying destruction...
Though for an Absolute Peak expert, its power seed lacking.
However...
These are just chanisms.
They can be deployed without much strength; if there are sufficient numbers, the implications behind this could be significantly different.
And now that Lv Taibai thought about it, Horse Face rely used chanisms; it didn’t necessarily an the chanisms were made by Horse Face.
Thus...
It’s really possible Horse Face isn’t Li Che.
Lv Taibai suddenly chuckled.
Whether Li Che is the Divine Monkey, or Horse Face is the Divine Monkey...
The issue isn’t significant.
In fact...
If Li Che is indeed the Divine Monkey.
Li Che probably wouldn’t care at all about the exposure of his identity anymore.
He already has the confidence for it.
Moreover, only a few can actually guess the Divine Monkey is Li Che.
Since besides Gongshu Jingjun, Tang Xiejia, and Ding Zi, these three elders of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, no one has seen the Divine Monkey carve this Divine Sculpture with their own eyes.
Perhaps they thought it was Li Che who carved it for the Divine Monkey?
Lv Taibai could guess it from an intuition unique to an Absolute Peak expert, a montary Dao Yun perception made him speculate thusly.
Whether this is specific or not, Lv Taibai still needs to ask Gongshu Jingjun and the others, while reminding them... to keep quiet.
If Li Che’s identity as the Underworld Divine Monkey is truly exposed, it’s indeed sowhat troubleso.
After all, the significance behind the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod is major, concerning Equal Heaven Temple, and ranking among the top ten Three Pure Ones Divine Weapons in the Da Jing Qin Tian Divine Weapon Catalogue...
It will certainly attract the interest of Absolute Peaks.
Li Che, being Xi Xi’s father, if anything happens to him, it would definitely affect the mindset of his precious disciple, the future cultivation mindset of the Divine Sect Young Sect Master.
Lv Taibai genuinely considered Xi Xi as a successor to cultivate.
Apart from truly valuing Xi Xi’s talent, Lv Taibai also felt, among his direct disciples, only Xi Xi was normal enough to assu the position of Qian Yuan Divine Sect Master.
Therefore, he must be well-trained.
Cannot stray from the path, cannot go down the wrong path, cannot et an untily demise...
Hence, protecting Xi Xi’s family is also sothing a master should do.
Sigh—
Nowadays, finding a normal disciple isn’t easy.
