Chapter 1000: Helper
The Fate Commander, who once consumed himself and altered his own past, was merely a fragment that fell from Fusheng Heaven.
Faced with this cruel reality, a profound despair surged from Li Huowang's heart. What was the meaning of all that he, as one of the Fate Commanders, had done in the face of such a powerful entity?
Words that Qing Wanglai had once said to him, along with his expression at that time, floated in Li Huowang's mind. At this moment, he finally understood why Qing Wanglai had felt that way before; they had no chance against Fusheng Heaven.
"What should I do?"
Looking at everything before him, this thought appeared in Li Huowang's sluggish mind.
"What on earth should I do?"
The emotions of self-destruction, transformed from intense despair, began to emerge in Li Huowang's mind, and his expression gradually twisted.
This feeling stemmed from the compulsion of his flesh, which even as Xinsu, Li Huowang could not control.
But soon, out of the corner of his eye, Li Huowang saw Wu Sheng Laomu right before him, with unexplainable emotions revealed from the densely overlapping eyes.
Clearly, she was not affected by San Qing's secrets and could not see Fusheng Heaven looming behind her, so she was able to move.
Wu Sheng Laomu moved, twisting her form and waving her dozen white-feathered water sleeves through Ji Zai's mind.
When the water sleeves were extracted, the accumulating death wish in Li Huowang's heart was also pulled away, and his thoughts finally regained a bit of clarity.
Although his will had returned, his body was still immobile. He wanted to move, but the presence surrounding Fusheng Heaven rendered him completely paralyzed.
"No! I must move; I can't sit here waiting to die! I must!" Li Huowang exerted all his strength, opened his mouth wide, and bit down fiercely.
As his tongue was bitten and turned into a bloody mess, the intense pain finally allowed him to regain temporary control of his body.
Li Huowang realized that in the current situation, attempting to turn and flee was impossible; he had to resolve this from the source.
Thinking of this, Li Huowang immediately thrust a hand into his chest, grabbing the secret of San Qing, and plunged another hand into his brain, tearing out all the previous memories with a mass of brain matter.
As these two things rested in Li Huowang's hands, the surrounding transparent liquid swiftly receded, reverting to that dim, multicolored darkness.
The first thing he did upon regaining freedom was to search for Qing Wanglai, but once again, he had vanished without a trace.
Li Huowang had now realized that this guy was plotting something! It was all premeditated!
He was exploiting the crisis of Fusheng Heaven to achieve his own goals.
As soon as he thought of Fusheng Heaven, Li Huowang looked with deep fear into the pitch-black depth of the liquid around him, holding a part of memories along with his brain in his hands, uncertain about what he was truly afraid of anymore.
Even so, his instinctively trembling body urged him to leave here quickly, a feeling extremely intense.
The surrounding liquid occasionally rippled, indicating to Li Huowang that other Fate Commanders were engaging with Fusheng Heaven's Fate Commanders, intensifying without realizing what was truly happening.
He had to leave here now, and then think about what exactly San Qing intended to do.
"Go! Hurry!! Don't worry about them! Hurry up!"
Li Huowang's voice echoed in the liquid as he paddled his hands towards the opening of Fusheng Heaven's White Jade Capital.
Holding these two items in his hands made him appear very inconvenienced. He wanted to discard them, but after a pause, he promptly tucked them into his arms.
When he swam to the opening, seeing the much larger pit than before, he couldn't help but grow anxious, knowing that the small amount of Dragon Qi in him was far from enough to seal it; more must be sent up.
Suddenly Li Huowang thought of something; he bent down and picked up a broken mirror, hysterically yelling at his fatigued self in it, "Quick! Li Huowang! White Jade Capital needs Dragon Qi, as much as possible! If it's not sealed soon, the whole sky will leak!!"
Just as Li Huowang's words fell, several extended dragon roars came from below.
Looking down, he saw Gao Zhijian leading four Dragon Veins, wrapping two Golden Dragons of Tianchen Country, surging upwards. "Li Senior Brother, where are you! The Dragon Qi is here!"
Seeing this, Li Huowang breathed a slight sigh of relief; he was now Ji Zai, but fortunately could communicate with future Li Huowang to call for reinforcements.
Li Huowang reached out, grabbed those two Dragon Veins with one hand, and started mending the edge of the hole.
Now, the Dragon Vein was the needle, and the continuously seeping Dragon Qi from it was the thread.
However, he hadn't been stitching for long before being forced to stop, as other Fate Commanders were still battling inside.
If he closed the hole before they came back, the White Jade Capital would be entirely doomed! But leaving it open wouldn't work either; the hole was still expanding!
Li Huowang gritted his teeth and tightly grasped the Dragon Vein, preparing to charge into the black water to help rescue the others.
But he knew that relying on just himself was unfeasible; it would only drag him into the quagmire, and his expression twisted with struggle as though his left hand weighed a thousand pounds.
Yet, seeing the fiercely churning black water, Li Huowang clenched his teeth and raised the mirror fragment in his hand once more.
He said to his red-eyed self in the mirror, "Help is needed here; White Jade Capital needs reinforcements! Call everyone who can come over!"
The mirror shattered, and threads of red color emerged from beneath White Jade Capital and continuously spread upwards, with familiar roars approaching from afar.
It was the cohort of Prime Ministers, two of them.
After careful identification, Li Huowang immediately discovered that there was something with these Prime Ministers; they weren't coming up by themselves but were being brought up.
The two half-dragonized bodies of Bai Lingmiao, seated cross-legged on the White Lotus Kongming Lantern, holding the Twelfth Grade Meritorious Jade Lotus, along with her six Bai Lu envoys, rose in his direction.
Li Huowang rushed down with one hand holding the Dragon Vein, colliding heavily with one of the Prime Ministers. Instantly, the fear in Li Huowang's heart was dispelled without a trace, and his eyes were filled entirely with intent to kill.
Just as he reached out towards the other Prime Minister, a misty substance burst from the black-water-filled sky pit, revealing Wu Sheng Laomu!
Her entire body turned, rushing rapidly towards Bai Lingmiao on the Kongming Lantern and her six Bai Lu beside her.
It seemed to be summoned by something; the white lotus seals on Bai Lingmiao's forehead and those on the Bai Lu became incredibly dazzling.
The six Bai Lu sitting on the Kongming Lantern smiled and spoke in unison around Bai Lingmiao.
"Heaven and earth are dark, the sun and moon unlit, the Red Sun catastrophe ends, Bai Yang shall rise! A great calamity encountered! White Lotus Nirvana!"
