Chapter 9: If You Have the Skills, Then Kill Me (Three Updates)_1
"Senior Sister, you know I have never lied to you!"
Facing Li Mochou's skepticism, Little Dragon Girl still spoke without sorrow or joy.
Could it be that gods really exist? A thought flashed through Li Mochou's mind, but she immediately dismissed it. How could there possibly be gods in this world? Charlatans are more like it.
"How can you prove there are gods?" Li Mochou asked.
"Just like I did. If you pray with me once, you will understand," Little Dragon Girl said.
"Naive." Li Mochou didn't believe it. She coldly uttered the word and turned to leave. Little Dragon Girl has become so terrifying now. If I don't leave, am I just waiting to be tortured?
BOOM.
However, just as Li Mochou was about to turn, a terrifying aura pressed down upon her. It was incredibly heavy, almost crushing her to the ground. Her pretty face turned pale, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on her fair, smooth forehead as she struggled to withstand Little Dragon Girl's pressure.
"Senior Sister, do you believe me now?" Little Dragon Girl asked.
"Don't think that just because your martial arts are superior you can make me submit! I just don't believe it!" Li Mochou was consumed with shame and anger, never expecting to be so utterly defeated by Little Dragon Girl today.
BOOM.
The terrifying pressure intensified, Li Mochou's bones creaked, and her slender, graceful body gradually bent under the force. Her Taoist robe became soaked with cold sweat, revealing her voluptuous and graceful figure, her fair and delicate skin barely concealed beneath.
"If you have the guts, then kill me!" Li Mochou's eyes were defiant as she glared at Little Dragon Girl, her heart filled with envy and jealousy. So this is a Grandmaster. So powerful. I'll never reach this realm in my lifetime.
Little Dragon Girl looked at Li Mochou, who still wasn't persuaded, and frowned. If reason doesn't work, then force must be used. Beat her until she submits... It seems the force is still not enough, so she's not convinced...
Just as Little Dragon Girl was preparing to apply more force, Granny Sun, who was beside them, saw the pitiable state of Li Mochou and quickly spoke up, "Miss Long, do gods really exist? How about this old woman tries first?"
Granny Sun had practically raised both Li Mochou and Little Dragon Girl. Having no children or relatives of her own, they were the dearest people to her. Even though Li Mochou had been expelled from the Ancient Tomb Sect, it didn't diminish Granny Sun's affection for her. She didn't want to see either of them get hurt.
Little Dragon Girl grew up in the Ancient Tomb, isolated from the world; she's too naive, or rather, too single-minded. If this continues, although it's unlikely she'd really kill Li Mochou, Li Mochou will probably suffer greatly, perhaps even be injured.
"Okay!" Little Dragon Girl nodded and began to pray with Granny Sun.
Li Mochou silently observed.
After the prayer finished, a powerful aura emanated from Granny Sun's body. Her cultivation level soared, eventually stabilizing at the Innate Peak.
How is this possible? Could there really be gods? Li Mochou's beautiful eyes widened, her heart in turmoil. Apart from a divine being, there's no other way to explain such a rapid increase in cultivation level from a single prayer.
I have to see for myself if this is true. Li Mochou no longer hesitated and quickly started praying. In her heart, she had already come to believe in the existence of the Divine Spirit.
Once my cultivation level rises to Grandmaster, I won't need to fear Little Dragon Girl anymore! When that time comes...
「A few moments later.」
Li Mochou's cultivation level advanced to Grandmaster. As she was eager for power, her heart was genuinely devout, resulting in divine grace nearly equal to that of Little Dragon Girl.
Of course, the first prayer brought the greatest benefit. If the first prayer yielded a benefit of ten, all subsequent ones would yield only one.
"The Divine Spirit is truly magnificent! It's unimaginable, indescribable... that towering presence... so vast..." Li Mochou's delicate body trembled, her eyes filled with shock.
She would probably never forget that towering figure for the rest of her life.
Having witnessed the majesty of the Upper God, Li Mochou felt her previous obsessions grow tasteless. Lu Zhanyuan? Just a worthless man, a commoner. He can get lost. The Jade Maiden Heart Sutra? It was just so-so. I could create a cultivation technique far more powerful on my own!
Recalling the glimpse of the majestic divine body of the Upper God she had just seen—although it was just the tip of the iceberg—it enlightened her, pouring inspiration into her mind.
Hongmeng began with Hongmeng Purple Qi and achieved the state of a True God through the Hongmeng Path. The divine body is mysterious. For those whose cultivation level is lower than his, seeing him is truly like seeing the Tao itself.
In many worlds, in the ancient wilderness where cultivation techniques did not exist, the Human Race would naturally follow the laws of heaven and earth, creating their own cultivation methods based on mighty ferocious beasts. Some created the path of runes based on elements like the bones of ferocious beasts. Others created the path of totemic arts based on aspects like the divine aura of ferocious beasts. Yet others were based on different principles.
The powerful bodies of ferocious beasts naturally contained the Principle of Taoist Rhyme. The strong, through cultivation, would have their bodies equally infused with the Principle of Taoist Rhyme.
For example, the protagonist of a certain desolate ancient world rose to power relying on the Nuwa Contemplation Diagram. The Nuwa Contemplation Diagram is a painting imbued with the divine aura of Nuwa; contemplating it is like perceiving the Tao and can enhance the Divine Soul.
Hongmeng's divine form also contained the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, especially now that he comprehended the Hongmeng Path and achieved the status of True God with the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
"Senior Sister, do you believe in the existence of the Upper God now?" The voice of Little Dragon Girl brought Li Mochou, who had been immersed in thoughts of Hongmeng's magnificent physique, back to reality.
She surveyed the greatly changed Little Dragon Girl. "Little Sister, where did you get the Meditation Method?"
She knew Little Dragon Girl would never leave Zhongnan Mountain, and the Ancient Tomb Sect certainly didn't have such a thing before. Otherwise, our ancestor would have already believed in the Upper God, without any reason to fancy Wang Chongyang, that scoundrel, only to die of depression in the end.
Moreover, the way Little Dragon Girl started a fight without hesitation just now also seemed to have changed. I've only been away for a short time, yet it feels as though the world has changed.
"The Meditation Method was naturally passed down by the Upper God." Little Dragon Girl looked at Li Mochou while also dividing a sliver of her attention to the mischievous ideas of a bunch of silly netizens in the chat group, saying, "Senior Sister, do you want to live forever, retain eternal youth, and ascend to become an Immortal and a god?"
"Do you have a way?" Upon hearing this, Li Mochou's eyes immediately lit up.
If this were before my prayer, and Little Dragon Girl had told me this, I would definitely have slapped her awake, telling her to stop daydreaming in broad daylight! But having witnessed the grandeur and grace of the Upper God, I'm somewhat convinced.
Eternal youth! It's a temptation most difficult for a woman to resist. Moreover, I'm nearly thirty, and my appearance is starting to decline. Even though I take good care of myself, in a few more years, wrinkles will start to appear.
"Of course, Senior Sister. You possess great destiny. I can offer you as a sacrifice to my God, allowing you to ascend to God's kingdom and become an Immortal and a god."
Little Dragon Girl told Li Mochou about the chat group and other worlds, leaving her mesmerized and her horizons greatly broadened. So the world is this big!
Regarding these matters, Li Mochou had no doubts. The reclusive Little Dragon Girl absolutely couldn't have fabricated all this. My previous doubts are also dispelled.
"Alright." Li Mochou considered it for a moment before agreeing. I have no attachments in this world. Now that I have the chance to ascend to God's kingdom, to see that magnificent Divine Spirit, and become an Immortal and a god, only a fool would refuse.
Having persuaded Li Mochou, Little Dragon Girl turned her consciousness to the chat group.
Little Dragon Lady Who Hangs Silk and Sleeps: "Thank you to my God, and thank you all. I have successfully convinced my Senior Sister to be offered as a sacrifice to my God. Now, what should I do?"
Dog Son: "Immortal sister, according to the requirements in the 'Sacrificial Method,' build an altar, and then prepare the three types of sacrificial animals, six types of livestock, and the five grains as offerings."
Soul Hall Saint Girl: "Little Sister Dragon, there aren't many people in the Ancient Tomb Sect, so building an altar and preparing sacrifices won't be easy. Besides, even with Li Mochou, a woman of great destiny, as a sacrifice, it still seems rather meager."
"With Little Sister Dragon's strength, after receiving our God's grace, she'll be almost invincible in the world. Moreover, with Li Mochou and Granny Sun helping, she'll be truly unstoppable."
"Little Sister Dragon, since you're on Zhongnan Mountain, it's convenient to go to Chongyang Palace and subdue the Quanzhen Sect."
"The Quanzhen Sect is a major Central Plains Orthodox Sect with extraordinary influence. Once you convert them to believe in our God, building an altar and preparing sacrifices will be as easy as flipping your hand."
"If Little Sister Dragon is still unclear, I can come and help you!"
You really are my precious Sacred Girl. Your enlightenment is high indeed. Looking at the messages in the chat group, a hint of a smile appeared in Hongmeng's eyes.
Among all the group members, Little Dragon Girl, due to her isolated upbringing, has the most limited practical abilities, despite her beauty and martial arts skills. If left to spread the faith and make sacrifices on her own, it's unknown how many detours she would take, and she might even be deceived. Now, with the guidance of group members, this is no longer an issue.
Little Dragon Lady Who Hangs Silk and Sleeps: "Thank you, Sister Bi! I know what to do now!"
Dog Son: "Immortal sister, start a live stream! drooling.jpg."
Dominator of the Underworld Association: "Start a live stream!"
Huashan Sect Master: "Live stream +1"
Seeing this, Hongmeng also felt a sense of anticipation for Little Dragon Girl's performance. Even if Little Dragon Girl didn't start a live stream, he could still observe her actions through the channel of faith. But Little Dragon Girl did not disappoint everyone.
Little Dragon Lady Who Hangs Silk and Sleeps: "Alright."
After agreeing, Little Dragon Girl informed Li Mochou and Granny Sun about spreading the teachings and making sacrifices, then led them towards Chongyang Palace.
「At this moment, inside Chongyang Palace.」
The Quanzhen Sect was in a fierce battle with Huo Du and Darba.
