Chapter 6188: I Am A Frog Under The Well

“Poof!” A wisp of golden light aimed to burn Li Qiye. However, instead of burning the flesh, it ignited his desire until there was nothing left.

“Be careful!” Li Xian shouted.

“This is not what I want to see, show me the true color behind the temptation.” Li Qiye was in no rush. His goal was to reverse the flames, not just draw them out.

They struggled but couldn’t escape his grasp.

“Open!” Time and distance didn’t matter as long as there was a trace left, whether it be law or dao mystery. Not even the death of the original owner could stop him.

“Pop!” The golden light and the flame were reduced to powder. Black smoke came out, seemingly originating from the abyss.

“No!!!” Li Xian was scared out of his mind and screamed after being trapped in an illusion of falling.

He looked around and couldn’t see anything, not even his hands raised in front of him. He had been transported to a different domain hidden by a supreme master.

This was an ocean of darkness. Once fallen, there was no getting out. Fortunately, he stood behind Li Qiye and wasn’t devoured by the darkness.

“Open!” Li Qiye had a serious expression as he stomped the ground, forcing this domain and its forces to revert to the origin.

“Zzz...” The dark domain dispersed and gathered into a single dark figure.

Although it looked the same size as a regular person, it gave the impression of being the largest being in the universe.

“Boom!” Its aura scared the soul out of Li Xian. He felt like a duckweed floating in the ocean, just one wave would put an end to him.

Of course, Li Qiye didn’t let anything happen to him, stopping the torrential waves.

“Buzz.” The figure opened its eyes, revealing a golden glow.

Li Xian’s desires suddenly surged the moment he saw the golden eyes. His body and mind were going to turn to ashes but Li Qiye raised his hand and saved him again.

“Pop!” The figure became frightened but couldn’t run before something pierced its chest.

“Ugh...” It made a sound resembling someone being choked. With its neck crushed, the dark domain collapsed.

After a while, Li Xian calmed down and found himself standing behind Li Qiye. The scene around him became normal again. The whole thing was just like a nightmare.

“W-what happened?” He dropped to the ground and was drenched in sweat.

“Just a memory, you can view it as a dream.” Li Qiye said.

Li Xian was no coward but that power was otherworldly. The fact that he could recover was a testament to his courage.

“That was a dream?” Li Xian shuddered.

“I suppose calling it desire is more accurate. Just a tiny bit is enough to burn and drag you to the abyss.” Li Qiye said.

Li Xian thought he lacked ambition and desires. Alas, that golden light still affected him.

“Well, opposing is certainly courting death.” Li Qiye gazed deeper into Old Ruins.

Despite the lack of aura, Li Xian felt the world was tiny compared to Li Qiye. The birds were still singing and Li Qiye was still a mortal, but his view of Li Qiye changed dramatically.

“I, I was a frog under the well and didn’t know you were a master. How should I address you, Senior?” Li Xian bowed.

“I am just a passerby, calling me Fellow Daoist like before is fine, I’m not old enough to be Senior.” Li Qiye patted his shoulder.

“...” Li Xian couldn’t utter the words “Fellow Daoist” any longer after witnessing Li Qiye’s power.
