As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1301
Chapter 1301 Blood Twilight
Hearing the sound coming from behind, Xiao Chen immediately used his speed even faster. The two of them chased after the wind and lightning in this lonely mountain range. A moment later, Master Xuan Dao’s voice came again, “Brat, do you think you can leave this place with the Heavenly Book? I’ll count to three. If you don’t stop, your soul will be destroyed!”
The voice was loud and powerful, like thunder, causing the nearby birds and beasts to scatter and flee. If it was in the past, Xiao Chen might really be intimidated by the aura of this “Immortal”. However, it seemed that this Mysterious Daoist might indeed have some cultivation, but it was not related to the word “true expert”.
At this moment, Xiao Chen executed Ling Xian Step even faster. This Immortal Dimension was filled with spiritual energy, as if he also felt that his inner energy was much more abundant.
“Two!”
The furious thunder rang out again, causing the nearby mountain peaks to tremble. However, Xiao Chen still hadn’t stopped. He could use Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body to kill this person, but it wasn’t the last moment. He just didn’t want to use Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body.
Firstly, Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body was not his strength. Secondly, Ancient Immortal Realm was definitely not as calm as what he had seen before. Dugu Tianxia was an influential figure from ten thousand years ago. If anyone noticed it, it would probably cause a lot of trouble.
“Three!”
Just as he was hesitating, Xuan Daozi’s last word came. Immediately after, a golden light immortal seal broke through the void and suddenly enveloped him from behind.
This Golden Light Immortal Seal was a hundred feet long and wide. Its momentum was earth-shattering, as if it was tearing through the void. Wherever it passed, several mountains were directly reduced to dust!
“What a powerful force …”
Xiao Chen couldn’t help but be slightly shocked. This kind of power was indeed incomparable to those Saint realm cultivators of the First or Second Realm in the mortal world. Even Chu Fengyang, who had stepped into the Third Realm, appeared to be insignificant under the power of this “Immortal”.
Fortunately, after he arrived in Ancient Immortal Realm, his inner energy was much more abundant. Ling Xian Step executed it faster than before. Just as the hundred meter golden seal behind him arrived, he left behind only an illusory image on the spot. His original body had already instantly gone ten kilometers away.
“Boom!”
A heaven-shaking explosion rang out. The entire mountain behind him had disappeared, turning into a cloud of dust. A layer of cold sweat had already condensed on Xiao Chen’s back. If it wasn’t for the timely use of Ling Xian Step, it would have been difficult to dodge the golden immortal mark. At this moment, he was hesitant as to whether he should use Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body or not.
In the blink of an eye, Xuan Daozi had already caught up with him from behind. Yesterday, he was clearly injured. Today, apart from the blood stains on his clothes, everything else seemed to be fine. Even his expression had recovered.
However, his heart was not as calm as it seemed. Firstly, yesterday’s incident was too strange. Secondly, he had been able to hit the opponent with a single move just now. However, he did not expect that the opponent would actually be able to escape.
Exactly where did this brat come from, and how could his movement speed be so strange and unpredictable? Why had he never heard of him in the Immortal Dimension before?
Just as he was pondering, Xuan Daozi arrived at a cliff in front of him. Twilight had already arrived, and a gust of wind blew over from the opposite side of the cliff. At this moment, on the opposite side of the cliff, he saw a figure standing there. Under the cold and slanting wind, his back was especially lonely.
“Fellow Daoist chased me for a day and night. Why don’t you tell me what you want?”
His voice was also cold and ice-cold. At this moment, for some unknown reason, Xuan Daozi suddenly had some fear. At this moment, he stared motionlessly at the white-haired figure on the opposite cliff with his back facing him. He held his breath and concentrated. After a long time, he said, “Who exactly is Your Excellency …”
As he spoke, a strand of azure zhenqi had already secretly condensed in his palm. At this moment, on the opposite cliff, the white-haired figure still hadn’t turned around, and his voice was as cold as frost. “You don’t need to know who I am. Tell me what you want to do.”
Facing such a cold aura, for some reason, the fear in Xuan Daozi’s heart became even more intense. He hadn’t felt this oppressive and suffocating when he chased after him all the way back. Just who was that person in front of him?
After a while, he said coldly, “Yesterday, you took away the words from the Heavenly Book. I hope that you will hand over the words from the Heavenly Book today.”
“Oh?”
Xiao Chen’s voice suddenly became a little cold. “Those words have already been printed into my divine sea. How can I take them out again? If I were to casually read a few words to you, would you believe me?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the wind on the cliff suddenly became even colder and bone-chilling. At this moment, there were clearly two traces of cold killing intent in Xuan Daozi’s eyes.
He walked towards the cliff step by step, and the true energy in his palm became even heavier. He said in a deep voice, “As long as Your Excellency is willing to hand over the words on the Heavenly Tome, I naturally have a way. There is no need for Your Excellency to worry …”
At the end of his sentence, the killing intent hidden in his eyes became heavier and heavier. How could Xiao Chen not sense this strand of killing intent with his keen divine sense? He said, “Fellow Daoist, it is not easy to cultivate for a thousand years. If you take another step forward, it will be the Eternal Abyss. Have you figured it out?”
Xuan Daozi’s aura condensed. At this moment, beneath his feet was the bottomless Abyss Valley. However, there were people who died for wealth and birds died for food. At this moment, although he was slightly afraid of this person in front of him, his covetousness towards the Heavenly Book was clearly greater than his rationality.
At this moment, he fiercely urged Genuine energy, bent his fingers into blades, jumped up, and attacked Xiao Chen, who was on the opposite side of the cliff.
A violent wind blew up, instantly turning the flowers and trees on the cliff into powder. If he wanted to obtain the Heavenly Book, there was obviously only one way. He could kill Xiao Chen and forcefully take his soul!
Without leaving any room, the moment Xuan Daozi attacked, it was the sharpest attack that took Xiao Chen’s life!
“I gave you a chance. Unfortunately, you didn’t cherish it.”
At this moment, Xiao Chen finally turned around. At this moment, it was as if even time had frozen. On the cliff, the gale suddenly stopped. Even the flowers, plants, and leaves that were flying everywhere in the sky seemed to have frozen in the air and remained motionless.
“You …”
When he saw the person in front of him, Xuan Daozi felt as if he had fallen into the bottomless abyss beneath him. No matter what, it was hard to believe that this person in front of him … This was not the person he saw yesterday! This was completely different from the person he saw yesterday!
At this moment, he seemed to have seen an eternal divine devil. What kind of intimidation was this, causing his entire body to be unable to move a single inch!
“Die.”
With a cold word, it was as if Xuan Daozi had been sentenced to death. As Xiao Chen raised his hand, a black light shrouded him, as if he was controlling life and death!
“Control … life and death!”
How could Xuan Daozi not recognize this manipulation of life and death? At this moment, he was even more frightened to the limit, but he was unable to escape. Under the confinement of Dugu Tianxia’s Power of Gods and Demons, he was no different from a mortal with no cultivation!
“Ah!”
A miserable scream echoed across the cliff. Xuan Daozi’s face twisted, wanting to struggle for the last time, but before he could throw out the talisman in his hand, his entire body had instantly turned into powder, and his body and spirit had finally been destroyed!
The cliffs on both sides slowly regained their calm. Suddenly, the Bone Demon’s voice sounded, “Brat, your methods seem to be getting more and more ruthless …”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s eyes were cold and his voice was extremely cold. “Didn’t you tell me that this cultivation path was paved with fresh blood?”
“Not bad, not bad … Haha! Brat, you’re starting to have the demeanor of this old man back then …”
Gu Mo seemed to be very happy and began to boast about the past, “Thinking back then, I used one person’s strength to carve out a path of blood from ten thousand people. I could kill one of those so-called immortals with a single palm …”
Xiao Chen didn’t listen to him boasting about his glorious deeds back then. He immediately came out of Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body and carefully put it away. He said, “Let’s go.”
“Brat, you killed that person just now. Aren’t you afraid that there will be trouble after you leave?”
“If I don’t kill him and let others know that I have the Book of Heaven, I think there will be more trouble …”
Xiao Chen did not hesitate any longer. He moved forward. At this moment, the sunset glow on the horizon was vast and magnificent. However, it seemed to have stained the Immortal Dimension with a layer of ice-cold blood.
…
Three days later, Xiao Chen arrived at an ancient immortal ruin. There were many immortal remnants living in this ruin. In fact, most of them were no different from mortals in the mortal world. However, because of the immortal aura, they did not suffer as much as mortals in the mortal world. Therefore, their lifespans were longer.
“Brat, where are you going next?”
Gu Mo’s voice appeared in his divine sea again. Xiao Chen did not say anything. Next, the main thing was naturally to inquire about the rain and dew of the Immortal Dimension. This rain and dew of the Immortal Dimension did not seem to be simple. It definitely did not stop at what Yun Ding and Shui Hanyan had said back then.
Seeing that he was silent, Gu Mo said, “It is said that in the past, most of the cultivators who came to Ancient Immortal Realm would choose a sect from the Immortal World to join. Brat, are you interested?”
“Immortal Realm Sect? No interest at all.”
Xiao Chen’s tone was calm. Not to mention that he didn’t have the slightest interest in the Immortal World Sect, even if he was allowed to become a Heavenly Official in the Heavenly Court, he might not be interested.
“Wait, the immortal spiritual energy here …”
“Brat, you finally found out?”
“Let’s go and take a look ahead.”
Xiao Chen’s expression was grave. He immediately activated his Wind Riding Technique and flew forward. A few days later, he arrived at the top of an abyss valley in the afternoon. At this moment, what he felt was the Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Dimension that had emerged from the bottom of the abyss valley.
“This Spiritual Energy … is so strange.”
Xiao Chen’s eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper. If only Wei Yang was here now, she would definitely be able to sense the abnormality in the Spiritual Energy of the Immortal Dimension more than herself.
At this moment, he could only reach the top of the abyss valley. However, when he approached the cliff, he was actually pushed back by a strange force. This seemed to be some kind of sealing restrictive force from the Immortal Dimension.
As for Spiritual Energy, who was gathered below the Abyss Valley, he could feel that this was the spiritual vein that would surely maintain the stability of Ancient Immortal Realm and Spiritual Energy. Moreover, there was definitely more than one spiritual vein in the entire Ancient Immortal Realm. However, why was Spiritual Energy, the Immortal Dimension here, slightly strange?
