Chapter 553: Chapter 18: Yours for This Lifetime

And all of this happened three months later.

Three months later, the Divine Court’s army mobilized, sweeping across the Celestial Demon Continent in just a few short months, annihilating all the Celestial Demons, causing the entire continent to crumble into destruction.

Then the Zizai Celestial Demon stepped in to battle the four Celestial Venerates, and the Empress made the final decision, completely burying the ancient Zizai Celestial Demon.

All of this was long predestined.

How could it possibly be something he could control?

Lu Chengfeng was trembling with fear, having initially anticipated the certain death of the Zizai Celestial Demon, thinking he would gain a Guardian True Spirit of Celestial Venerate level.

Unexpectedly, this woman was so frustrating, intending to announce across the Three Realms his title as the Victorious Buddha Demon Venerate.

Once the Celestial Venerates’ battle ended and the Zizai Celestial Demon was suppressed, even if the Three-Life Golden Lotus returned to his body, how could he possibly explain himself?

At that time, whether or not he was a Demon, he would become one!

If the Empress didn’t kill him, that would be truly surprising.

Lu Chengfeng, trembling with fear, exerted all his efforts to serve the Zizai Celestial Demon, hoping this woman would spare him.

Unfortunately, in the end, this woman drained him completely dry but still would not relent.

She even wanted him to help activate the Three-Life Golden Lotus to announce to the Three Realms, or she would expose his identity.

This method of exploiting someone and tricking them was a specialty of Lu Chengfeng.

He had done this to many women before, not expecting karma’s wheel to turn, and now he found himself in this situation, being ruthlessly exploited by the Zizai Celestial Demon woman.

After supporting himself out of the Zizai Celestial Palace, this scene unfolded before him.

“Damn it, this is really troublesome now!”

“That damn woman is about to die, yet still wants to drag me down with her, truly life-threatening.”

Lu Chengfeng was extremely resentful but had no means to resolve it.

However, he knew clearly that benefits never fall from heaven. The advantages he gained from the Zizai Celestial Demon this time were too numerous and too great. Trying to take all the benefits without any trouble was not so simple.

After retracting his gaze, he no longer paid attention to the situations in the Celestial Demon Continent and Zizai Celestial Palace, knowing unless it reached the final step, even if the entire Celestial Demon Continent collapsed, it didn’t concern him.

“For now, if I want to survive, the best method is to preserve the life of the Zizai Celestial Demon.”

“No, no…”

Lu Chengfeng suddenly had a flash of insight, realizing something he had overlooked before.

“If the Zizai Celestial Demon is truly suppressed and killed, it will become my Guardian True Spirit. Even if the Three-Life Golden Lotus is ready to return to me, I can have the Zizai Celestial Demon suppress the golden lotus.”

“Even…”

Countless runes flickered in his eyes as he engaged in intense and repeated deductions, various scenarios flashing through his mind.

“Hahaha, heaven never seals off all paths.”

“Woman, no matter how cunning like a fox you are, you’ll have to drink the foot water of this old man.”

“Dare to make this young master lick your feet… just you wait…”

“Let’s see who’s the last one standing!”

After careful deduction, Lu Chengfeng finally found a perfect way to survival, feeling instantly relieved.

This time’s gains were too great, transforming his body into the Golden Lotus Body, even a Celestial Venerate would find it hard to extinguish him. The Three-Life Golden Lotus remaining undying would allow his physical body to persist eternally.

This was a huge advantage, transforming his previously somewhat weaker physical body into his strongest combat power within a month.

With just his physical body, he could traverse among the Great Powers of the Three Realms, even challenging a Celestial Venerate without dying.

Of course, all of this presupposes that the enemy does not possess the power to directly annihilate his Divine Soul.

Compared to those Great Powers and Celestial Venerates in the Three Realms, his current Spiritual Cultivation was still too weak.

Although the golden lotus body also provided protection to his Divine Soul, if the enemy had a special treasure capable of breaking his body and slaughtering his Divine Soul, he would be in danger.

Only his physical body was undying, not his Divine Soul.

“However, what I gained in the Zizai Celestial Palace includes not only my physical body but also my Spiritual Will and Combat Techniques.”

“My current Spiritual Will is entirely sufficient to step into the Nether Union Realm. I only need to find a suitable place for seclusion to attempt to thrust my spirit into Cyan Nether Heaven, leaving my mark on the Gates of Netherworld.”

“If the Spiritual Will does not enter the Nether Union Realm, there’s not even the qualification to enter the Netherworld; how could I possibly participate in the infamous conquest?”

“In the battle of the Netherworld, even the weakest must have their Spiritual Will step into the Nether Union as Divine Generals. As for True Monarchs, Venerates, and Celestial Monarchs, they will likely all be deployed, a war sweeping across the Three Realms, nearly all Great Divine Ability Users will be drawn in.”

“As for ordinary Immortal Gods, they don’t even have the qualification to participate.”

Lu Chengfeng’s gaze was deep, knowing through memories from the next ten thousand years that the Netherworld held countless secrets and many opportunities for great creations coveted even by the earth.

He was sure to participate in the Netherworld War.

“My spirit has accumulated enough; I just need to choose the right time and place to break through in one fell swoop.”

“Even my Combat Techniques have been cultivated into a Fighting Dharma Form, though it is only a Lower Grade Fighting Dharma Form, comprising just the weakest combination of three Divine Techniques, and lacks the crucial step of Nether Union for the Spiritual Will. It can only be called a prototype of Lower Grade Fighting Dharma Form.”
