The Great Ruler

In the first level of the Four Sacred Tower, which was guarded by Ancestor Great Spirit.

Killing sounds resounded around a huge altar. When the Spiritual Energy and Magical Force collided, a deafening sound erupted and caused the world within this level of the tower to shake endlessly.

In order to protect as well as to destroy the altar respectively, the top powers of the Great Thousand World and the Extraterritorial Race were clearly fighting fiercely and slaughtering many here as well…

In the northwest corner of the altar, several figures were crowded together. Luo Li was among them. Around her, Wen Qingxuan, Ling Xi, and the others were waiting solemnly with their eyes alert as they looked around.

The lineup of their group of people was obviously not too eye-catching when compared to the whole scene. After all, there were nearly 10 Sovereigns of Complete Earthly Sovereigns in this battlefield. Furthermore, this count did not include the top powers of the Extraterritorial Race…

However, the good thing was that, on this level, there were no top powers that were as strong as Shi Tianyou. So, when both sides fought, although the battle was fierce, the winner still could not be decided. Thus, the battle was at a stalemate.

“Luo Li, what is that lady doing?” Suddenly, Wen Qingxuan poked Luo Li and asked.

Her beautiful eyes were looking into the distance, specifically at the position that was very close to the altar. There was a large battle ring, and in the middle of the battle ring was a feminine woman in clothes that were whiter than snow.

At this time, Wen Qingxuan and the others already knew that this woman was named Bai Xin’er. She was Luo Li’s opponent this time, and their target was Ancestor Great Spirit’s inheritance, which was on this level.

Since Bai Xin’er had some pretty impressive skills, there were always a lot of top powers with great abilities around her, many of whom were Complete Earthly Sovereigns. For this reason, their lineup was the most impressive on this level! Therefore, they had been seated at the front in places of honor, so they were able to get closest to the altar first and resist the attack from the Extraterritorial Race.

At this time, from the fierce battle ring, the woman named Bai Xin’er first looked towards Luo Li from afar with her beautiful eyes. Then, she sat down gently with her legs crossed.

Her jade-like hands quickly formed a seal, and suddenly, Spiritual Lights began to condense in the Celestial Spirit Cover. Faintly, it looked as if there was an invisible light wave forming a ring and emitting light.

“She is trying to communicate with the will of Ancestor Great Spirit, which is asleep!” When Luo Li saw what was happening, her eyes seemed to have slightly frozen as she spoke.

In this level, because no one had yet released the Heaven Demon Emperor’s remnant soul that was suppressed and sealed, the will of Ancestor Great Spirit was still sound asleep. Obviously, if Bai Xin’er was able to communicate with the will of Ancestor Great Spirit, she would be able to sweep out all of the Extraterritorial Race with the help of his powers.

In that case, she would undoubtedly be considered as being the one who gave the biggest contribution. Then, “Great Spirit Heaven Destroying Light,” which was one of the 36 volumes of Rare Super Powers, would naturally be hers to keep!

“We must stop her!” Ling Xi knit her long, shapely eyebrows slightly. If Bai Xin’er possessed the “Great Spirit Heaven Destroying Light” first, then Luo Li’s journey would obviously end in failure.

Mu Chen transferred all of the people to Luo Li’s side, as he wanted them to help her complete the task. He knew that, if this ended in failure, it would be very difficult to have closure.

“I will go and distract her!” Long Xiang knocked his metal fists together and said in a deep voice.

Although there were quite a number of Complete Earthly Sovereigns on the opposite side, he was not afraid at all. However, his actions were still halted by Luo Li, who shook her beautiful head and said, “The cultivation technique that she is practicing must be the Great Spirit Ancient Clan’s Great Spirit Scripture. It is said that Ancestor Great Spirit also practiced this same technique. She wants to use this to communicate and awaken Ancestor Great Spirit’s will.”

She then added, “This is actually not a bad idea, but doing so will not be as easy as she thinks.”

It was known from the information that she had received that, in the ancient times, among the four ancestors, Ancestor Great Spirit was the first to pass away. Therefore, the will that he left behind was always in a deep sleep, which was quite difficult to awaken. As such, it did not look like Bai Xin’er would succeed in her endeavor.

When the people saw how calm Luo Li was, they also restrained the anxiety in their hearts and prepared to observe the development of the situation. Just when their side had finally calmed down, Bai Xin’er, who was some distance away, suddenly glanced over at them.

After seeing that there were not any unusual changes among them, she smiled faintly and waved gently to the top powers who were beside her. The top powers quickly surrounded Bai Xin’er and guarded her group.

“This woman is really vigilant, as she always has her guard up.” When Wen Qingxuan saw what was going on, she raised her eyebrows.

“How could the person who can be the Holy Maiden of the Great Spirit Ancient Clan be such a simple person at the same time?” Luo Li asked with a faint smile.

Although Bai Xin’er was alone, she knew how to manipulate the top powers into doing anything she wanted. This was the sort of trickery that could not be accomplished so perfectly by an ordinary person.

While they were having this conversation, the Spiritual Light that was floating above Bai Xin’er became increasingly bright and sparkly. Like a bright moon, it lit up the whole heavens and earth.

That light even spread across the altar. In the middle of the altar was an ancient stele, which appeared to have vibrated a little at this moment.

All of a sudden, Bai Xin’er looked pleased, but that emotion did not stay for long, as she soon realized that the stele had already returned back to its quiet state. Seeing this, Bai Xin’er grit her teeth, while aggressively trying to stimulate the Spiritual Energy that was trapped inside her body. As she struggled, the Spiritual Light that was floating above her head was spreading out further and further, hovering over the ancient stele.

Boom! Boom!

Her activity drew the attention of a few of the top powers from the Extraterritorial Race, who immediately came over to attack. However, they were successfully intercepted and dealt with by the top powers around her.

“Quickly, wake up!” Bai Xin’er’s white teeth were biting hard on her red lips as she continuously practiced the Great Spirit Scripture, hoping to be able to communicate with the will of the Ancestor Great Spirit, who was in a deep sleep. But, the result was undesirable, as she did not get any response.

Halfway through her second attempt, Bai Xin’er finally opened her eyes, which revealed her dissatisfaction. She raised her head and looked at the altar, which was some distance away.

Then, she mumbled to herself, “Is it true that one has to reach the top of the altar to awaken the will of the ancestor?”

If that was true, she would be blocked by many top powers from the Extraterritorial Race. Also, if they were too reach the top of the altar and awaken the remnant soul of the Heaven Demon Emperor before she did, it would be very troublesome indeed!

“Have you failed?” A man with a tall and straight figure called out to her, asking the question out of concern.

Bai Xin’er smiled at him and nodded before saying softly, “You all have worked so hard.”

The man who obtained Bai Xin’er’s soft smile immediately felt a boost of energy and said, “There is no need to rush. Wait here until we can escort you to the top of the altar, then you will definitely be able to awaken the will of Ancestor Great Spirit.”

He then added, “As for them, you don’t have to worry, as whatever you cannot do would definitely be impossible for them as well.”

Naturally, he was referring to Luo Li and the others. It was obvious that Bai Xin’er mentioned it to them, so they would be aware that Luo Li was her biggest competitor.

Bai Xin’er smiled softly and said, “You can’t say that. We still need to be slightly cautious about that mysterious Luo Li.”

As she was speaking, she turned to look in the far direction where Luo Li and the rest were. Then, she locked her gaze onto Luo Li, who was currently sitting cross-legged.

As though she felt someone staring at her, Luo Li gently raised her head, her crystal clear eyes meeting Bai Xin’er’s. Then, she immediately looked away.

Bai Xin’er also looked away, but her beautiful eyes squinted slightly and she asked, “That Luo Li… Is she really planning to communicate with the will of Ancestor Great Spirit as well?”

When she thought about this, the corners of her lips lifted into a smile that had a deeper meaning. She knew that Luo Li was only recently selected to be the next Holy Maiden by the Scarlet Flame Deity. This meant that she had never practiced at the Great Spirit Ancient Clan before.

Therefore, for a person like her, without any practice experience and being from the Great Spirit Ancient Clan, to want to communicate with Ancestor Great Spirit was akin to the ravings of a complete lunatic!

“Luo Li, are you sure you can do this?” asked Wen Qingxuan, who stood beside Luo Li and gazed at her worriedly.

After witnessing Bai Xin’er’s failed attempt, everyone already knew how difficult it was to awaken that Ancestor Great Spirit’s will. After all, at least Bai Xin’er had practiced the Great Spirit Scripture before, whereas Luo Li had not.

Luo Li smiled faintly and asked, “Do you know why the Scarlet Flame Deity had so much confidence in me, thinking that I would be able to obtain the Great Spirit Heaven Destroying Light?”

After Wen Qingxuan shook her head, Luo Li said with a wide smile, “It’s because I’ve cultivated the Luo God Celestial Body.”

Wen Qingxuan was clearly confused. She couldn’t understand what the connection was between cultivating the Luo God Celestial Body and the Great Spirit Ancient Clan.

Luo Li raised her pretty face and directed her beautiful eyes at that ancient altar before saying, “The Scarlet Flame Deity once said that, in ancient times, Ancestor Great Spirit was an infatuated man.”

“Who was he infatuated with?” Ling Xi asked.

Luo Li laughed cunningly and said, “The person he was infatuated with was naturally the previous master of the Luo God Clan, the same person who is also our Luo God Clan’s ancestor, Luo God!”

“Oh! I understand now! You are planning to use a honey trap… No, the Body Beautifying Technique… To awaken the will of Ancestor Great Spirit, which is in a deep sleep!” Wen Qingxuan clapped her jade-like hands together and said in surprise.

Luo Li blinked her watery eyes and said naughtily, “For that Great Spirit Heaven Destroying Light, I shall have to make a small sacrifice of the beauty of our ancestor…”

Wen Qingxuan and the rest looked at each other, all of them wondering…

Will this really work?

After Luo Li was done talking, her jade hands formed a seal. Then, an expansive Spiritual Light appeared behind her back, flooding the entire heaven and earth. It was also at this time that a thin, graceful shadow slowly appeared behind her.

It was the Luo God Celestial Body, the prettiest Celestial Body of The Great Thousand World!
