Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 1120: Test the Spear

A sharp blade-light rushed toward Ou Yangming, and the temperature in the valley seemed to have become colder.

The red Bloodthirsty Insect was ferocious. Its face was hideous, and its scarlet sickle slashed toward the human in front of it.

Ou Yangming’s eyes shone brightly. He recalled Xing Tian’s actions in his sea of consciousness just now, and a vast and ancient aura appeared on his body.

Just as the red Bloodthirsty Insect thought that the human would die, Ou Yangming’s eyes focused as the Blood Spear Dragon Slayer in his hand pierced through the air.

The red Bloodthirsty Insect, which originally had an astonishing defense, had many flaws in Ou Yangming’s perspective at this moment.

Every one of those flaws could be fatal.

“Heaven’s Destruction!”

The Blood Spear Dragon Slayer was like the breath of a horned dragon as it whistled through the air. Ou Yangming roared and waved his long spear like a god of war. His spear pierced the eyes of the Bloodthirsty Insect.

“Boom.”

The True Qi condensed on the Blood Spear Dragon Slayer exploded in front of the Bloodthirsty Insect. Half of the head of that powerful Bloodthirsty Insect, which even Old Wutong thought was very difficult to deal with, was blown off by Ou Yangming.

Consequently, the scarlet sickle hung down, and the Bloodthirsty Insect’s red skin faded away as it turned into an ordinary Bloodthirsty Insect. It looked like it was in disbelief.

Even when the red Bloodthirsty Insect died, it still could not understand how the human, who was not its opponent just a moment ago, could become so terrifying.

The ordinary Bloodthirsty Insects in the distance let out fearful cries and surrounded Ou Yangming, but they did not dare to take a step forward.

These insects did not have high intelligence, but they knew to fear. If even their king was killed, would they not be sending themselves to their deaths?

“Whoosh.”

Ou Yangming withdrew the Blood Spear Dragon Slayer and let out a long breath. His eyes were filled with shock. The destruction he used just now was far from a tenth of the true essence of the move. Even so, it still had such fearsome power.

If he practiced diligently, the power of this move could be increased again. The only flaw was that this move consumed too much spiritual power, and he could only use it once at most. If he could not finish off the enemy or cause serious injuries to the enemy in one move, the remainder of the battle would be difficult to handle.

Of course, Ou Yangming also understood that very few people could truly block this move. If an opponent could block the move without being injured, the disparity between them must be too great. If this were the case, the opponent’s original strength was already not something he could contend against. Whether he used this ultimate move or not, the result would be the same.

“It’s time to leave this place.”

Ou Yangming put the Blood Spear Dragon Slayer back into the Long Feather Band. Then, he took out the wooden token on his waist and abruptly crushed it.

With a crack, a white light flashed.

Ou Yangming felt a strong repulsive force, and his body quickly disappeared from the valley.

In the secret room.

Xing Tian’s illusory figure floated up again. He looked in the direction where Ou Yangming had disappeared, and his eyes were a little lost. The words that the young fellow had asked him before echoed in his mind.

“Can I still come back?

“Probably not.

“Unless…”

Xing Tian’s eyes flashed with intelligence. He seemed to be recalling something.

“Unless the Immortal Path to H…” These words were like a taboo. Xing Tian’s figure froze in the air. There was a hint of fear in his eyes. His closed mouth seemed to have received some kind of instruction, and his body disappeared into the void. At the same time, the Rebirth Cave began to shatter, and this space was permanently sealed.

Ou Yangming, who had reached the outside world, did not know what happened in the Rebirth Cave. He looked at the entrance of the cave that had disappeared. He rubbed his head, not understanding what had happened.

His mind was immersed in the poisonous pill’s world. After reporting to Lil’ Red, Big Yellow, and the others that he was safe, he walked in the direction of the Shaman Tribe.

A dragon boat streaked across the sky and disappeared into the horizon in an instant.

At the Ancient Shaman Tribe.

The ground was still in ruins and was charred black by the flames. Du Xie looked at the illusory figure in the sky. The Ancestral Shaman that was summoned with his senior brother’s life had become much dimmer, and it looked like it would disappear in a moment.

It was worth noting that the Ancestral Shaman’s illusory figure was very powerful, but there were also many restrictions. He could not leave this place, and he could not help the Shaman Tribe in any other way. He was just a spiritual body that had some battle awareness. He did not have any thoughts and similarly, he did not have any emotions.

“Elder Du Mo, how’s The progress?” Du Xie looked at the formation master, who was working hard to repair the Big Mountain-guarding Formation, and asked calmly.

Du Mo shook his head, and the other formation masters looked dejected. Du Xie’s heart sank. He naturally understood the meaning behind it. He sighed and said, “Elders, don’t blame yourself. My strength has recovered a little over the past few days. If they come again, I might still have the strength to fight. The hope of repairing the formation was already very slim, to begin with. It’s good that everyone has done their best.”

Hearing Du Xie’s words, the formation masters felt even more ashamed. They all knew that the clan master had suffered serious injuries during the last battle. The Ancient Shaman Tribe had astonishing recovery abilities, but it would still be impossible for them to recover in a single day. The clan master should be glad that he could already display the strength of an ordinary Ruler.

“The people of our Ancient Shaman Tribe won’t hesitate to die.” Du Jian also walked over. The injuries on his body were even more serious.

Du Jian was calm as if he had already seen through life and death. He said, “Lingsuan and the others have gone to the Great Wide World. Even if our tribe dies in battle, we won’t sever our inheritance. If they dare to come, even if I have to burn my Soul Fire, I’ll perish together with them.”

“That’s right. The Ancient Shaman Tribe isn’t afraid of death.” The other elders’ voices were also loud and clear.

A gratified expression flashed across Du Xie’s eyes. He looked at Du Jian, who was walking over, and asked, “Have the other Shaman Tribes in the heart of origins been notified?”

Du Xie replied, “They’ve all been notified. They all intend to come over and support us, but I’ve rejected them according to your request, Clan Master. I told them to disperse and hide, preserving the inheritance of our tribe’s bloodline.”

“There are only a few ordinary Rulers among them, so they’re still too weak. Coming here will just be a wasted sacrifice. I’ve observed and noticed that Feng Xinxiao, the phoenix powerhouse, is probably close to the second step. No matter how many people come, they’ll just be courting their deaths.” Du Xie sighed.

At noon, a ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the ground. The Ancestral Shaman in the sky slowly dissipated. It was already the illusory figure’s limit to persist here for 20 days. Ghost Face had used the price of his soul being dissipated to preserve 20 days of vitality for the Shaman Tribe.

Nonetheless, external forces were ultimately external forces. What had to be faced still had to be faced.

“The Ancestral Shaman’s illusory figure has dissipated…” Someone cried out to alert the rest.

Following that, there was a dead silence. Everyone knew what this meant. Their guardian had disappeared, and the enemies must have been waiting for this day.

100 kilometers away, a member from the Qiongqis looked at the disappearing illusory figure in the sky, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a cruel smile.

“It’s finally gone. I must report this to Young Master at once.”

With a gentle flap of his wings, his body sliced through the sky and disappeared into the horizon like a stream of light.

On the Shaman Tribe’s side, a huge dragon boat was floating in the sky. The dragon boat gave the Shamans below a mighty deterrent force.

“They came so quickly!”

The Shamans looked at the sky with lantern-like eyes. There was hatred in their eyes, and they wished that they could tear the dragon boat in the sky into pieces.

“They must’ve been observing in the dark. They saw that our Ancestral Shaman disappeared and came right away.”

“Damn the Qiongqis and the Golden Crows. Our ancestor should’ve exterminated them all.”

The people below were furious. They looked at the sky with hatred in their eyes. If gazes could kill, the people on the dragon boat would have been riddled with holes by now.

‘What’s wrong?’ Ou Yangming, who was on the dragon boat, felt confused. ‘I don’t have any conflict with the Shamans. Why do they all look like they’re going to kill someone?’

Ou Yangming walked out, kept the dragon boat, and hovered in the sky.

“Who’s this person?” The Ancient Shamans below were puzzled. Most of them did not know Ou Yangming, and they did not sense the aura of the Qiongqis and the Golden Crows from him.

Ou Yangming stood in the air. He found Du Xie among the crowd and asked, “Senior Du Xie, what’s going on?”

“Oh, it’s you, Lil’ Friend Ou!” Du Xie smiled bitterly and said to the surrounding people, “This human is Ou Yangming, a friend of our tribe. Don’t misunderstand.”

Hearing Du Xie’s words, the surrounding people withdrew their hostile gazes. It turned out that they had been mistaken. This young fellow was neither from the Golden Crows nor the Qiongqis.

“Senior Du Xie, did you run into any trouble?” Seeing that everyone’s hostility had disappeared, Ou Yangming landed on the ground and asked.

He had clearly seen the surrounding scene. There must have been a great fight here. He did know what had happened here when he was in the Rebirth Cave.

“It’s a long story.” Du Xie sighed lightly and turned around to ask, “Did you gain anything in the Rebirth Cave, Lil’ Friend Ou?”

Du Xie actually did not have much hope. He did not think that Ou Yangming would gain anything good. There were many people who had gone to the Rebirth Cave, but he had not heard of anyone who had obtained any treasures from it. Most of them had died there. However, due to the wooden token that could teleport one away from the cave, the clan master let the young fellow try as it could save him from danger.

Ou Yangming’s eyes were filled with joy as he said gratefully, “Thank you for giving me the chance, senior. I gained a lot from the Rebirth Cave.”

Du Xie’s eyes focused as he carefully looked at Ou Yangming. Seeing that the young fellow did not seem to be lying, he responded, “It seems that you’re indeed worthy of being the chosen one, lil’ friend. This is truly admirable.”

The clan master glanced into the distance as his heart slightly sank. Originally, he had wanted to get Ou Yangming’s help. Nevertheless, when he thought about the situation of his people, he realized that they simply did not have the strength to fight against the enemies.

With a gloomy expression, Du Xie said, “Our tribe is about to have trouble. Lil’ friend, you should leave this place as soon as possible so that you won’t be implicated.”

“Leave? Where to?”

Just as Du Xie finished, a flame flashed in the sky, and an unruly figure appeared in the sky. That person was wearing red armor, and his eyes had a cold look as he stared at Ou Yangming like a falcon.

“B*stard, let’s see where you can run to this time.”
