Chapter 502 I Came as Promised, Great Freedom
All previous indications suggested that the container for the arrival of Great Freedom was located in the primeval forest.
It is precisely because of this that many followers of evil gods gather, and that Hua Letian appears, summoning five evil gods to protect him.
Logically speaking, this was already a done deal and didn't need any further confirmation, but the information Bai Ze had received earlier forced him to do it anyway.
If the primeval forest here is merely a "pretend path," then the great vessel of freedom would not be here.
And facts have proven—
Bai Ze focused his senses and found no trace of the "mark" in the primeval forest.
His blood didn't enter some place deep in the primeval forest, or even necessarily in the mountain and sea realm, but went to other places.
The sudden news of "openly repairing the plank road while secretly crossing the Chencang pass" was not wrong.
So, where could he be?
Bai Ze's mind raced, and he had actually come up with a possibility.
On the surface, Bai Ze showed no change in expression, simply absorbing the Great Freedom Demon Blood he had seized into his body.
Half of the blood and energy in Rudra's body was absorbed into Bai Ze's body, circulated to his limbs and bones, and merged with his own essence and blood.
Given Rudra's power, this essence blood would not have been so easily fused. However, Bai Ze empowered himself with the power of Hualetian, and with his words becoming law, no matter how powerful this Great Freedom Demon Blood was, it could only be fused by Bai Ze.
"combine."
With a deep shout, his surging blood energy merged into his body, accompanied by wind and thunder, churning water and clouds, and blazing demonic fire.
Bai Ze seized the energy of Rudra, analyzed and integrated the power of this storm god, and combined it with the faith and spiritual power of Susanoo from Ying Kingdom that he had previously seized.
Susanoo is both a storm god and a war god. When the two are combined, Bai Ze draws out the storm, refines weapons, and transforms them into the energy of metal and wood.
Furthermore, Bai Ze also discerned Shiva's karmic fire, which Rudra obtained from the blood of the Great Lord of Devas, through the blood of the demon.
On the other side, Bai Ze gathered the vital energy discarded by the Bashe when it shed its skin, understood its mysteries, and used his own power to restore the wind, thunder, water, and fire to their original state, integrating the five elements.
"The four elements were in a state of chaos, then they came together."
Words lead to laws that guide metal, water, wood, and fire. Cinnabar and wood essence combine with metal. Where metal and water meet, wood and fire become companions. The four are in a state of chaos, and are arranged as dragon and tiger. Dragon is yang and odd, while tiger is yin and even.
The essence of the exercises in the "Cantongqi" resonated in my heart. I used the "Chapter on the Chaos of the Four Elements" to unify the elements of metal, water, wood, and fire, and further promote the earth element. The four elements were in chaos and were combined into one.
"The liver is green, representing the father; the lungs are white, representing the mother; the kidneys are black, representing the son; the liver is red, representing the daughter; the spleen is yellow, representing the ancestor; the twelve earthly branches (子午) are the beginning; these three elements belong to the same family and all return to the earthly branches (戊己).
The radiance of the five elements shimmered around Bai Ze, and following the appearance of the sun and moon, five stars of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth evolved behind Bai Ze.
The nine planetary configurations evolved further at this moment, with seven stars aligning in the sky, bringing clarity to the universe.
By borrowing the power of the happier, one elevates their level of strength, transforming their own insights into tangible power, much like pre-paying for the future.
Then, by controlling the power of words, and using this power, which is equivalent to the Heavenly Gate level, to boost one's own realm, the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are evolved.
Left foot steps on right foot, right foot steps on left foot.
What was originally an illusory external force has now brought a real and tangible boost to power.
The seven stars were arranged in the sky, emanating an aura that made even the fleeing Bashe tremble.
Even though he had already escaped the primeval forest, he could still sense the presence of that aura.
"open."
Bai Ze raised his arms, and the Seven Stars were arranged behind him in the sequence of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. At the same time, he slowly spoke: "The road opens up before me, and the boundaries of space are broken by my power."
Hua Letian's space gradually distorted, and a real reflection appeared in front of Bai Ze.
He saw deep within the dense jungle, where followers of evil gods prayed at various altars, slaughtering and offering sacrifices.
The intense blood and faith transformed into a current, surging into Hualetian and returning to their respective objects of worship.
Deeper still, the air was thick with mist, hazy and indistinct, yet Bai Ze still sensed a powerful fluctuation emanating from the depths of the mist.
Then, the scene changed again, from the dense forest to a grotto, where a familiar figure stood on a high platform, looking at the place.
"Koche, you're the one watching me, aren't you?"
The sound was like thunder, tearing through the light and shadow and rushing into the cave on the other side.
Looking at the figure displayed on the screen before him, Kochet sighed, "The variables are real."
Bai Ze took advantage of Hua Letian's home field advantage, turned the tables and killed Lou Tuoluo, and also took the opportunity to improve the strength of his main body.
Unfortunately, Koshche is still unable to dispel the illusion of happiness.
The other four evil gods all rely on Hualetian to appear. If Hualetian were to undo the deception, those four evil gods would become rootless duckweed, at most only able to manifest a phantom image.
How can they possibly stop the other Heavenly Gate warriors like this?
Furthermore, the only physical form of the Rudra had already perished in the storm, and even the Great Freedom Demon Blood had been seized and refined by Bai Ze in an instant.
Even without unlocking the power of Hua Letian, the other four evil gods could only intercept a few Heavenly Gate warriors, but could not stop Bai Ze.
Breaking through the barrier is only a matter of time.
Thinking of this, Koche couldn't help but applaud Bai Ze. "There's an old saying in Dongxia, 'To lift a stone only to drop it on one's own foot.' This time, it seems I've done just that foolish thing."
Despite this, Koche showed no sign of anger or frustration, remaining as calm and composed as ever.
Everything that needed to be done has been done, and the goal has been achieved.
Even if Bai Ze can break through the barrier, so what?
As the applause subsided, Kochet slowly turned around.
"If you're not making a move, it means that what's here is just an avatar of yours. Where is your true self?"
Bai Ze's voice came from the light screen, becoming increasingly realistic and intimate.
It was as if he were right behind me.
"You are neither an evil god nor a follower of Great Freedom, therefore you cannot use the power of the Heavenly Musician to reveal your true form. Where is your true form?"
"Where is true freedom?"
The light curtain twisted, and an unparalleled force poured out from it, distorting the boundary between Hualetian and the grotto.
"The Great Freedom, he's on Earth, right?"
Koschae stopped in his tracks.
"Wow~"
He made a surprised sound and turned around, "I didn't expect you to have discovered even this. I have to admit, I underestimated you."
Koche waved his hand gently, and the dark cave gradually became bright.
Behind him was a blood pool that had mostly dried up, and below the platform lay corpses.
All the corpses were like dried-up corpses, and some were even half-broken.
Without a doubt, these are all followers of the Great Freedom, corpses that died after their demonic blood was drained.
Rudra's body was formed from the blood of these Great Free Demons.
Even Hua Letian's existence was orchestrated using this demonic blood as a medium.
That's all.
There was no physical body of the Great Freedom, and even the aura of the Great Freedom was very faint.
The true nature of freedom is not here at all; the arrangement of the primeval forest is merely a facade.
"Your guess was right, this is indeed just a decoy."
Kosh'e spread his hands, as if showing the surrounding scenery, "After the Third Divine Enemy of Dongxia began to investigate, most of the spies that had been lying in ambush have been exposed. Dongxia even tried to follow the clues to find the headquarters of the Great Freedom Believers."
"Under these circumstances, a plan to reuse waste was born. Since they would attract a constant stream of pursuers, why not use them to lure all of Dongxia's fighting force over here?"
The martial arts association of Dongxia followed the followers of Dazizai all the way to the Mountain and Sea Realm.
It was at this time that the members of the Immortal Order were discovered in the primeval forest.
Cheng Peng then came looking for him, and was supposed to be surrounded and killed, but was rescued by Bai Ze.
However, the other party's plan was not completely changed.
It's just that it's a step faster than before.
What should have been Cheng Peng's death, with the martial artists of Dongtian Tianguan avenging him, actually turned into "Cheng Peng" leading a large group of people straight to the heart of the enemy.
The situation changed much faster than expected, but the overall picture remained the same.
Even the step of striking directly at the heart of the enemy was achieved by Kosh'e sending his followers of the evil god to launch terrorist attacks in various places, forcing the enemy to fight a quick battle.
Koschae hadn't expected that despite their large-scale deployment, their forces would be broken in such a short time.
Bai Ze is truly a variable.
Koschère looked at the figure in the light screen, but it didn't matter; the Great Freedom's goal had been achieved. The Great Freedom was currently in Dongxia.
Bai Ze suddenly spoke up: "Is that what you're thinking?"
Kosch's expression shifted.
You guessed it!
"He has already descended, which is why you created the illusion of His descent to lure us in."
Bai Ze continued, "Even if this arouses the vigilance of all the powerful beings, it doesn't matter. We've already descended, and it won't be long before it's exposed. There's no need to worry about what will happen in the future."
If one makes signs of impending arrival when it has not actually arrived, thus alerting others, it will hinder the true arrival of great freedom in the future.
All Earth's powerful beings treat the Great God, the greatest evil god since the beginning of this martial arts era, with the utmost vigilance.
Even countries like the Western Union and the Holy Roman Empire do not welcome the existence of Great Freedom.
The Great Freedom itself is a symbol of chaos, a representation of disorder and disorder.
This could backfire, and when the time comes for them to actually arrive, they might be ambushed and killed by powerful figures from all sides.
But if true freedom has already arrived, then it's different.
Bai Ze's words did not cause a change in Koshche's expression, but Bai Ze knew that he had guessed it.
Or rather, when he donated his blood, the greatest evidence was already in his possession.
"amazing."
Koche applauded again. "If I didn't know you weren't under the control of the Great Freedom, I would have thought the Great Freedom had revived within you."
This was a secret known only to him and Mahasattva; even Ananda and Rudra were unaware of the true plan.
They have never truly understood the Great Freedom.
As the two continued their conversation, the spatial fluctuations subtly expanded.
Suddenly—
A vast amount of primordial energy surged forth from the light curtain, forming a giant hand that contained Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, suppressing Kosh'e.
The boundary between Hualetian and reality was completely broken, and Bai Ze made a ruthless move within Hualetian.
The previous conversation was both to confirm his suspicions and to buy time.
One was to capture Kosh'e's incarnation.
However, how could Koche be completely unprepared?
He had already learned his lesson once before, and last time he almost couldn't escape. He couldn't even manage to self-destruct. This time, he was naturally well-prepared.
Before the large hand could fully press down, Koche's body was already like a candle flickering in the wind, slowly fading away.
He transformed into a wisp of green smoke, vanishing without a trace.
Only one sentence echoed: "Da Zizai said that you and he will meet soon. However, that depends on whether you can find him."
Before he finished speaking, Koche's figure vanished completely, leaving not even a trace of his presence.
The giant hand struck empty air, pressing down on the high platform. The power of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements pressed down, causing the entire space of the grotto to freeze.
But in the end, they couldn't keep Kosch'e.
As for the evil god followers outside, and the members of the Eternal Life Cult, they are nothing but expendable pawns.
Koche may have suspected that Bai Ze had also targeted members of the Eternal Life Cult, but he pretended not to notice and allowed Bai Ze to gather intelligence.
The ultimate goal is to attract all the powerful figures from Dongxia.
"That was truly a well-planned scheme."
Bai Ze gazed at the other end of the space and murmured, "But how do you know I can't find you? Great freedom!"
.....
With a soft sound, a gentle white light illuminated the entire space.
It was pure white from all sides, with a crystal-like structure.
A base stands in the very center of this space, with a pillar of light rising above it. Inside the pillar is a jade mirror suspended by strands of light.
The mirror is decorated with cloud patterns and is entirely white, except for the front surface, which is a deep dark color.
It wasn't pitch black, but rather as deep and boundless as the cosmos, as if a universe, a world, was hidden within it.
"The supreme treasure brought back from the Primordial Realm by the First Divine Enemy possesses the power to create celestial realms, hence it was named the 'Kunlun Mirror.' It is also the central hub of the Star Network, the origin of that virtual world."
The man slowly revealed the origin of the jade mirror, and without turning his head, said, "This is a forbidden area of the Taiyi Academy in Dongxia, not a place for you."
Behind the man, a figure solidified from nothingness, first appearing as a two-dimensional image, then gradually becoming three-dimensional.
The real figure appeared here.
"Actually, I didn't plan to come."
...
The figure slowly raised its head, revealing Bai Ze's face.
"But what can I do when someone already made plans with me?"
Bai Ze feigned helplessness.
"Who?"
"Great freedom".
Bai Ze revealed the man's name and said to his retreating figure, "I have come as promised, and as you said, we will meet soon."
"Great freedom".
This time, the words "Great Freedom" were used to refer to the man.
The speed of "fast" seemed to exceed expectations.
