Slay the God: Late Night Bookstore

Chapter 288 Heading to Takamagahara

In the hazy fog, [Yi Yuan] slowly unsheathed like a sleeping dragon.

The bright blade is like a mirror, reflecting a long river of time flowing like silk, flashing a light blue light.

The moment the long sword was unsheathed, the old figure suddenly coughed, the sound was like an old bellows, "cough cough cough cough..."

Scarlet blood sprayed inside the boat. His right hand tightly grasped the hilt of the knife, and the blade slowly slashed towards the seven figures in the air, as if to cut through the void.

"Pah!" A foot stepped forward and stepped firmly on the sea surface frozen by time, splashing water.

Under the "King" mask, the pair of old eyes suddenly opened, like the deep starry sky, mysterious and majestic.

Li Mingxuan walked up to the old Wang and stared at him calmly.

Under the mask, the old man narrowed his eyes slightly and sighed helplessly: "You are here too? Yes, that's right, the reason why I came to Daxia is because of you."

Jia Lan also walked to Li Mingxuan's side at this time, and looked at the old king with him warily. "Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am." The old man Wang Mian's voice was low and hoarse, with a chilling chill, "I... am here to take his life."

"Kill An Qingyu? Now is not the time. He and Lin Qiye are too deeply entangled. Not to mention whether you can kill him, even if you succeed, the disaster in the future will still come."

Li Mingxuan stood in front of the old king and said, "He is just the carrier chosen by Him. Even if he dies, He can still choose other carriers."

The old man was silent, like a statue. After a long while, he slowly raised his head, his eyes like a knife, and looked directly at Li Mingxuan in front of him, "Did you know that he would become a disaster?"

Li Mingxuan did not deny it and nodded slightly. The reason why he knew this was because he knew the original story and knew that the [Key to the Door] was destined to come and could not be changed.

"So, this is also part of your plan?" The old man Wang put the [Yi Yuan] into the scabbard. His voice was calm, but there was a mystery hidden in it. It seemed like he was asking, but also seemed to be confirming.

"Plan? What plan?" Li Mingxuan was confused when he heard that.

"I almost forgot that you haven't even started planning this chess game yet." The old king showed a relieved smile, as if everything was within his expectations.

"In that case, I will not kill him for now, but... now that I am here, I must do something."

He stared at Lin Qiye and others who seemed to have stopped in time. After a moment's hesitation, he resolutely swung the [Yi Yuan] in his hand and pierced into the sea below him like a storm.

Time flowed on the surface of [Yi Yuan], converging into an incomparable huge sword light, pouring into the seabed beneath their feet like a dragon entering the sea. Then, a shocking deep-sea vortex suddenly formed under their feet!

The rolling sea water rolled up the six bodies frozen by time like raging waves, and they sank into the vortex like six meteors, and disappeared into the depths of the ocean in an instant.

Except for Li Mingxuan and Jia Lan, everyone else disappeared without a trace.

"you wanna die!"

Galan witnessed this scene, her eyes widened and there seemed to be flames burning in her pupils. She looked back at the old king with gritted teeth, holding a spear in her hand, and rushed away like lightning!

"You are not my opponent right now."

The old king shook his head slightly, and swung the long sword in his hand again. A sword light that covered the sky and the sun was like the creation of the world, almost splitting the entire sea into two, and slashed fiercely on Galan.

Although it did not leave any scars on Galan's body, the terrifying power contained in it was like a mountain crushing an egg, and it knocked him away in the blink of an eye!

Galan's figure disappeared at the end of the sight like a kite with a broken string.

The shattered sea water fell from the sky like a bead curtain, as if it was drizzling.

Li Mingxuan knew that Jialan and the others would be fine, so he did not take action. Instead, he was curious about what the old man Wang was planning.

Since the old man Wang Mian came from the future, he must have seen his future self. What kind of plan is his future self setting up?

"I have several questions to ask you." Li Mingxuan walked over and his eyes fell on the elderly Wang Mian.

"About my future self...how I plan to plan."

"There are many things I cannot tell you. When I came back from the future, I was already involved in too many causes and effects. If I tell you, it will have a huge impact on the future and may even kill me."

The old man slowly sheathed the [Yi Yuan] and turned back to his boat. His steps seemed a little heavy, but his eyes were firm and calm.

"Come on board, I'll take you somewhere."

When Li Mingxuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little confused and curious, but he still got on the boat without hesitation. After sitting firmly, he couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going?"

The old king raised his head slightly, looked into the distance, and replied softly, "Takamagahara."

"Takama-ga-hara?" Li Mingxuan frowned slightly. He was not unfamiliar with this name. He knew that was where the Japanese gods lived, but it was polluted by the Ksitigarbha system. Except for Susanoo who was still alive, all other gods died in it.

"What are we going there for? Are we going to confront Susanoo directly? Or are we going to seize the Kusanagi sword?"

The old man shook his head with a faint smile on his face. "It is not realistic for us to seize the Murasaki Sword at the moment. Even the future Lin Qiye paid a huge price to bring it back from Takamagahara. Besides, I can no longer act easily... cough cough cough."

At this point, the old man suddenly coughed violently, and the sound echoed on the sea. He stretched out his right hand, and saw scarlet blood dripping down his palm, and soon gathered into a shocking pool of blood in the boat.

Li Mingxuan looked at the scene in front of him, his heart tightened, and he asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

The old king waved his hands, indicating that he was fine. He took a deep breath and continued, "So, we are going to Takamagahara this time to get half of the power of faith in Takamagahara."

Li Mingxuan stared at the old king with wide eyes, and asked in confusion: "Why do you want to take the power of faith from Takama-ga-hara? To increase the power of law for you?"

The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly explained: "It's not for me, it's for you."

"Leave it to me? But I'm only at the peak of Klein level, and it's still a long way to go before I can become a god?" Li Mingxuan scratched his head and asked in confusion.

"I can set up a space in your body where time stops, and store the power of faith inside, waiting for you to become a god before using it."

The old man Wang explained patiently.

"And the day when you become a god...is not far away."
