The green light was filled with a healing aura, the yellow light burned to dispel evil, and the purple light stabilized life, but even with the skills deployed by the three Immortals, the body of that Immortal still irrevocably turned to flying ash.
"Death Line": Once the target is hit, it immediately kills the target.
The Immortal wanted to strike at Li Changzhou, but he no longer had limbs;
He wanted to beg for mercy, tried to open his mouth, but was unable to make a sound as his throat and mouth had disappeared;
His eyes revealed hatred, regret, and longing, and the next second, those eyes too were gone.
The black ash fluttered in the air, and an Immortal powerful enough to destroy heaven and earth had just died.
The scene fell silent, it seemed as if they were mourning for the scattering black ash, but in reality, there was not a bit of sympathy or longing for the dead in anyone's heart.
Nineteen Immortals couldn't figure out Li Changzhou's skill, and didn't dare to act rashly.
Players were used to life and death, but those who survived, all feared death, and they all had one instinctual habit—tries by all means to understand the target's skills.
"The Art of War·Strategic Attack" says, "Know the enemy and know yourself, and you will never be in peril; do not know the enemy yet know yourself, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat; do not know the enemy nor yourself, every battle is certain peril." Among players, this almost becomes an iron law, the working principle most players rigorously abide by.
Even Li Changzhou and his allies acted strictly according to "not knowing the enemy but knowing themselves," trying their best to understand themselves, strengthen themselves, to face the unknown "enemy," and tip the scale of victory towards themselves.
Li Changzhou also did not continue to act.
Under the circumstance where the opponent was making a will determination, relying on a surprise attack could only leave a scar on the arm; now with the opponent on guard, it was utterly impossible to succeed.
But there was no need; seizing the opportunity to take down one had already achieved the purpose of asserting dominance.
Qi-Blood surged, bones stretched, Li Changzhou restored to the vigorous figure of a twenty-year-old, brimming with fighting spirit!
"Do you want to kill me?" he asked.
"The struggle of the great path, not a step can be retreated!" one person said sternly.
"Good, spirited!" Li Changzhou looked at this person, "Although we are enemies, I admire you. Now, let's vote, I want to kill him, who agrees, who opposes?"
The nineteen Immortals felt suffocated.
Li Changzhou's words seemed to turn into a tide of darkness, burying them.
Oppose, to act together?
The opponent already had three people; aside from the odd Black Line just now, Li Changzhou also possessed a proved intact Supreme Immortal Divine Body, and Yang Qinglan might appear any minute.
But to agree...
"The fate of Earth should be decided by the majority, what right do you, Li Changzhou, have to decide everything!" someone roared, like an angry lion.
The Immortal's momentum was powerful, causing thunder and lightning in the sky!
"The majority decides, isn't that voting? I am just seeking your opinions now," Li Changzhou surveyed everyone with an unmatched aura.
"Li Changzhou, don't think we are afraid of you! Without the Turquoise Pool and your sister, what are you!"
"What am I? What are you, I dare to fight you one-on-one, dare to openly call you a dog," Li Changzhou looked at the man, "Do you dare, bastard?"
The Immortal did not speak, only the sky above the Heavenly Pillar was ominously dark.
The sky seemed to become a palette, reflecting the emotions of each Immortal, such was the power of Human Immortal, each word and action, for mortals, was the weather.
Li Changzhou could see their dissatisfaction and coldly sneered in his heart.
If it wasn't for Guanyin's repeated persuasion, once more than twenty Immortals clashed, it would ensure that the sky trembled and the earth changed its landscape, wreaking havoc on all living beings, he would have long called Yang Qinglan to join, and the four of them would attack together and kill the opposition!
But he couldn't just let them off easily.
Blood-red waves surged to the sky, tumultuous and overwhelming, affecting wind and cloud alike.
The Immortals' Heavenly Pillars of Qi were all dispersed, the dense Qi-Blood, like a mountain, pressed down on everyone.
Li Changzhou, displaying his three thousand meters Divine Body, looked down on them: "Vote then, those who don't speak are automatically against."
[You're forcing them to act] Guanyin said.
Li Changzhou did not respond, just continued staring at the nineteen Immortals.
The energy fluctuations from the standoff of over twenty Immortals made half of Earth's life forms vaguely feel uneasy, a sense of doom pressing down.
That feeling, like students who messed up their answer sheets in an important exam, adults who accidentally killed a pedestrian while driving, unimaginable panic, unrelievable unease, utterly distraught.
More than a dozen Heavenly Pillars of Qi surged on Earth's surface, other Immortals couldn't hold back anymore, sending out warnings, threats, or persuasions.
Li Changzhou still looked down at the nineteen Immortals in front of him.
"Vote, you—" his finger robust enough to pierce mountains pointed at one Heavenly Pillar, "agree or oppose?"
"..."
"Not speaking? That means oppose."
Li Changzhou pointed to the second Heavenly Pillar: "You..."
"Li Changzhou!" the Immortal designated as the assassination target shouted word by word, "You dare—"
"Shut up!" the Turquoise Pool sharply interjected.
The Immortal's face turned red, and no matter how much effort he made, under the Divine Will of the Turquoise Pool, he couldn't utter the first word.
Li Changzhou didn't even look his way, still staring at the second Heavenly Pillar, and continued: "Agree or oppose?"
"...Agree," was said with difficulty.
"You!" the first Immortal looked at him, tone incredulous.
Li Changzhou pointed to the third Immortal: "You?"
"Agree."
"Wait!" the first who voted shouted, looking up at Li Changzhou, "I agree too! I agree!"
