Immortal Path to Heaven Novel - Chapter 1087

Chapter 1087: The Origin of Time

In the divine hall, golden lights filled the air like a golden wheat ray shining under the summer sun.

The Bone Dragon’s body emitted a majestic aura, which could change the weather and turn the wind and clouds upside down.

A few bones on its face were gathered, giving people a solemn feeling. It said in a deep voice, “Lil’ friend, just treat me as an old man. I have a presumptuous request.”

“Please go ahead, senior.” Ou Yangming’s expression was serious.

“I hope that you can resolve the grudge between the Dragons and the Phoenixes and let the Great Wide World return to peace.” The Bone Dragon’s voice was deep. After it finished, it bowed.

Ou Yangming hurriedly jumped away. He could not take the bow. The Bone Dragon, which disregarded self-sacrifice for the sake of righteousness, was someone he respected from the bottom of his heart.

Even so, he immediately promised, “I dare not promise you that as it means that I’ll be going against the world on my own. I can only say that I’ll do my best.”

The Bone Dragon nodded. It would have looked down on Ou Yangming if he made a promise right away. After all, this kind of promise would be the same as becoming enemies with the Dragons and the Phoenixes. In this aspect, Ou Yangming and He Jian’s personalities were very similar. If they were not confident about something, they would leave some leeway for themselves. Making a promise but not fulfilling it was the same as being irresponsible to others and themselves.

“Senior, given your strength, as long as you leave the Long River of Time, you’ll surely be able to integrate the Dragons’ forces. When that happens, the fight between the Dragons and the Phoenixes will be resolved,” Lil’ Red said with confusion.

Only then did the Bone Dragon seriously size up Lil’ Red. At this time, the little red bird felt a piercing cold light on his back. Every bone and cell in his body seemed to have been seen through where no secrets could be hidden.

He was seen through at a glance as if he was a transparent piece of paper or a clear lake that could be seen to the bottom.

Fortunately, the Bone Dragon quickly shifted its gaze.

It closed its mouth before it said in a deep voice, “I actually died hundreds of thousands of years ago but due to the reversal of the law of time, I became neither dead nor alive. If I leave the divine hall, I’ll suffer a backlash from the law. I can only hold on for 10 breaths at most before I collapse. I’m not afraid of death, but I can’t die. I still have to keep an eye on the Ancient Shamans. If I leave again, they’ll comprehend the law of time, reverse time, and revive the dead Ancient Shamans. If that happens, the Great Wide World will once again descend into chaos.”

When this voice reverberated in Ou Yangming’s ears, the look of respect in his eyes had reached its peak.

“Senior, you’ve worked hard.” The young fellow and the 2 beasts exchanged glances and expressed at the same time.

“For the peace of the Great Wide World, I’m willing to die.” The Bone Dragon’s voice was calm but also as heavy as a mountain and determined. It seemed to be willing to give everything including its life and soul for the pursuit in his heart.

“Reversing time?” Ou Yangming immediately grasped the key in the dragon’s words.

“Yes.” The Bone Dragon nodded. After pausing for a moment, it continued, “This is only a branch of the Long River of Time, but it also has the origin of time. It’s under the protection of the Ancient Shamans.”

“The Ancient Shamans that I met before… Why do they seem to have no thoughts?” Ou Yangming was puzzled.

“They’re Ancient Shamans below 2 marks. Those above 3 marks have independent thoughts.” The Bone Dragon was slightly worried.

Ou Yangming nodded, and his throat moved slightly. He bit his teeth and asked softly, “Senior, to tell you the truth, I entered the Long River of Time to look for the origin power. I wonder if you can give me some pointers?”

The Bone Dragon looked at him seriously and asked, “Are you really going?”

“Yes,” Ou Yangming answered. His voice was not loud, but it was clear.

“It’s extremely dangerous there. Given your strength, it’ll be very difficult for you to deal with the Great Shamans with 3 marks.”

“I still have to go. If I can’t comprehend it, I’ll destroy the origin of time and let the Ancient Shamans disappear in the passage of time forever.” Blood flashed in Ou Yangming’s eyes, and a hint of doubt also appeared in his heart. ‘If what the Bone Dragon said was true, what about the Ancient Shamans that we encountered outside the Long River of Time? Could it be that this group of Ancient Shamans has begun to understand…’ When he thought of this, he became even more anxious.

“What a broad-minded young man. I’ll lend you a helping hand.” As the Bone Dragon said this, a brilliant white light flashed in its claws.

Without any movement, the light turned into a white jade the size of a finger and zoomed toward Ou Yangming’s palm.

The Bone Dragon uttered, “By chanting with your heart, illusions can be broken into reality.” After saying that, it closed its eyes and did not say a word.

Ou Yangming was familiar with the ways of the world. He quickly cupped his hands and said, “Senior… Till we’re fated to meet again.”

After saying that, without waiting for the Bone Dragon to answer, he walked out of the hall.

It was then when a voice echoed around Ou Yangming and his companions. “The jade contains the power of my strike. Use it carefully…”

Both Big Yellow and Lil’ Red were shocked at the same time. They had seen the strength of this Bone Dragon. How mighty was its strike? It was probably at Feng Mu’s level, right? However, they did not know that the strike was only a tenth of the Bone Dragon’s strength, but it was also unspeakably tyrannical. Even Ou Yangming’s face revealed a look of surprise and joy.

This life-saving method was too precious in the heart of origins.

Outside the divine hall, the lights were boundless. It seemed like everything was covered with a layer of holy light. All of a sudden, the multicolored light became boundless, and auspicious colors flew in all directions. The dazzling lights spread out.

At this time, above the divine hall, a white lotus flower slowly bloomed. It extended its petals, and a fragrance that penetrated one’s heart came from the hall. The holy light spread around Ou Yangming’s body as if he was in a fairyland. It was dreamy.

An indescribable path conception circulated, making one involuntarily release one’s mind and immerse oneself in it.

A voice echoed in Ou Yangming’s mind. ‘In the future, if the Dragons and the Phoenixes resolve their grudge, remember to inform me so that I can be at ease.’

Ou Yangming shook his head and sighed, “As expected of an existence that forsook itself for righteousness…”

After the light dispersed, the Ancient Shamans who had been wandering around the divine hall and did not dare to come close seemed to have seen the most terrifying thing. They scrambled to flee in all directions, and their eyes revealed a look of shock.

Ou Yangming scanned his surroundings and sneered.

He took out the white jade stone and closed his eyes tightly. Golden mental power surged into it as he said softly, “By chanting with the heart, illusions can be broken into reality.”

After a while, a pure and unsullied white light appeared in Ou Yangming’s perception. It was very far away, but it was still very bright.

He opened his eyes. The light in his eyes was like lightning as a domineering look flashed past. After he had mastered the Solitary Thought Skill, even if he subconsciously suppressed it, the overbearing look that occasionally flashed across his eyes still made one’s heart shiver.

“How is it?” Big Yellow and Lil’ Red asked at the same time and looked up.

“I found it.” Ou Yangming smiled confidently and rushed toward the place he sensed in his spiritual world.

After an hour, a shrill voice was heard. It was like a lone wolf crying under the moon or an evil ghost crying at a grave.

“The auras of the Dragons and the Phoenixes… Die… All of you must die!” Immediately after, an Ancient Shaman that was 333 meters tall ran over from afar. Each time it stepped out, the undercurrent beneath its feet would surge, drawing up a water pillar that was several meters wide and surging in all directions.

The Ancient Shaman swung his heavy fist at Ou Yangming’s head.

Ou Yangming did not even raise his eyelids, and his face was as calm as a lake.

On the contrary, it was Big Yellow that snorted coldly. With a flash, it took the initiative to meet the Ancient Shaman. 9 flying knives intersected with each other, and cold lights spread in all directions. They stirred the seawater into pieces and headed straight for the giant’s head.

A 333-meters-tall Ancient Shaman with 2 marks was only equivalent to a top-grade Venerable One. Even if its body was strong, it was not a match for Big Yellow.

In less than 10 breaths, it was killed by Big Yellow.

“Let’s go. This thing can’t even be killed and is hard to deal with,” Ou Yangming said softly.

Nevertheless, it was too late. After the Ancient Shaman’s flesh and blood regenerated, it raised its head and roared, letting out a shrill scream. As the sound waves swept in all directions, waves of green water rippled out as if they were transmitting a signal.

Ou Yangming rolled up his sleeves and brought the 2 beasts away in an instant.

For some unknown reason, the Ancient Shamans were able to keep up with Ou Yangming. Their numbers were increasing like a surging torrent.

“What should we do now?” Big Yellow glanced behind him, but it did not feel too worried. In the worst-case scenario, it could hide in the poisonous pill’s world, and no one would be able to find it. Having said that, it would be difficult for it to obtain the origin of time.

Lil’ Red also looked at Ou Yangming. His experiences during this period…

To him, this feeling was too wonderful. Not only was Lil’ Red not afraid, but he was also eager to try.

Ou Yangming pondered as he fled. All of a sudden, his eyes lit up. He wondered what would happen if he used the great path of Yin and Yang to hide.

He had done this before. When he was being chased by the dragon and phoenix powerhouses and the Phoenixes, he had merged into space and ambushed Long Xiao. Furthermore, he had severely injured the dragon powerhouse.

Once he had the thought, he could not suppress it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible.

Ou Yangming raised both of his hands. His left hand turned into Yin while his right hand turned into Yang. With a push, the aura on his body became ethereal. Lil’ Red and Big Yellow were the same. They gradually dissipated into the seawater.

In reality, they were only concealed by the power of the laws.

They were still there, but the Ancient Shamans could not see them. This was because this was the great path of Yin and Yang. Even a Ruler would find it difficult to discover Ou Yangming without comprehending the laws.

Big Yellow’s expression was odd. It grinned and revealed a mouthful of white teeth, especially its 4 tusks. They were thin and long, and they contained dense spiritual Qi. The 4 tusks were polished by Big Yellow day and night. They were tremendously sharp as if they could bite through everything. When it first met an Ancient Shaman with 2 marks, if it was not for its teeth, it could not have bitten off the giant’s arm in one bite. It was all because of its spiritual teeth.

It watched as countless Ancient Shamans walked past it but could not discover it. It subconsciously looked at Ou Yangming and transmitted its voice, Lil’ Ming, is this the power of laws?’

‘Yes.’ Ou Yangming nodded.

Lil’ Red’s eyes flickered twice, and his face was filled with envy. Even as a member of the Phoenixes, he did not possess this kind of power. More importantly, he was very passionate about this. He would pay any price to obtain the ability.

After a while, he gently flapped his wings and asked, “Lil’ Ming, are we going to snatch the origin of time?” His eyes revealed a fiery glow when he spoke. Ever since he heard that Ou Yangming had snatched the flying boat from the dragon powerhouse, the primal power in his body seemed to have opened up, and he became enthusiastic about snatching things from others.
