Immortal Path to Heaven Novel - Chapter 1108
Chapter 1108: Instant Kill
The moon—the crescent moon…
Like a curved hook, it hung in mid-air, and its gentle moonlight poured down like water.
Grass, small houses, and even faint green smoke were sprinkled with a soft white color.
No matter how beautiful the night was, it could not bury the countless troubles. Whether it was for daily necessities, power, or to get to the peak… All kinds of people were common people. Of course, common people had troubles, and having troubles meant that one would lose sleep.
Du E also had his troubles, which was why he could not sleep.
He was the core elder of the Shaman Tribe, and his cultivation level was much higher than that of an ordinary Ruler. Nonetheless, no one knew that there was a wild desire burning in his heart.
The Ancient Shamans dominated the entire universe, suppressing the heavens, as well as the other races until they lost all light.
Yet now, they were living in this small corner of the world. Du Xie no longer had any desire to fight for hegemony, so he was willing to suffer here. On the other hand, Du E could not do that. He still wanted to restore the glory of the Ancient Shamans from ancient times. To say the least, he would have to occupy half of the Great Wide World, right? That was why he and the other elders had decided to open the Shaman Tribe’s Big Mountain-guarding Rune and work together with the Qiongqis. The Qiongqis had sworn a natal oath, so how much trouble could they cause? Moreover, those who achieved great things did not care about small things. Even if there were blood and bones all over the ground, so what?
Did powerful warriors not step over blood and bones one step at a time?
Even so, when Du E was about to open the formation, he wavered.
His cultivation was incredibly high, but he was still afraid of change and the unknown future.
As he looked at the core hub of the Shaman Tribe’s formation, Du E was hesitant. 2 voices kept exploding in his head.
‘Open the Big Mountain-guarding Formation, and the Shaman Tribe will have a chance to regain our glory from ancient times. WE’ll be able to rule the world and achieve immortality. Besides, you’ll also be worshiped by tens of thousands of Shamans, and your true body will become immortal. Why are you still hesitating?’
‘Hmph, the Qiongqis are evil and cunning. What good will it get if we work together with them?’
These 2 voices could not stop each other!
After an hour, Du E’s pupils shrank slightly, and his face was as pale as paper. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, “I’m not doing this for my selfish desires; I’m doing this for the Shaman Tribe. It’s inevitable that I’ll bleed and sacrifice myself. After all, it’s always dark before dawn.” All the voices in his mind disappeared. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and his aura was as smooth as a ball. Black light surrounded his fist as he suddenly punched out with a majestic aura.
“Boom…”
With a loud bang, the core hub instantly collapsed.
The intricate interspatial nodes dimmed, and the land of the Shaman Tribe started to collapse inch by inch.
At that moment, the foundations of the Ancient Shamans’ remnants were revealed. They flew into the sky without showing any signs of panic and waited quietly.
“Hahaha, it’s just as I expected. Using the rise and fall of the Shaman Tribe as an entry point, this spy really couldn’t resist it.” Luo Yang, who was 50 kilometers away from the Shaman Tribe, laughed loudly while his hands trembled.
Back then, he had spent a lot of effort to persuade Du E.
As soon as Luo Yang finished, sounds of air being torn were heard. Seven-colored lights shone brightly in the sky. The weakest among them were top-grade Venerable Ones, and the strongest one was a Ruler. Furthermore, the Ruler was much stronger than an ordinary Ruler. With a light wave of his sleeve, he could shatter the air. He turned into a long arc and charged toward the Shaman Tribe.
The long arcs in the sky whistled and gathered with a sharp edge.
Countless rays of light could be clearly seen flying over from all directions, tearing the silent night sky into pieces.
All of a sudden, 8 people appeared in the moonlight. It was as if they had appeared out of thin air. They were half men and half women, and they were dressed luxuriously. An old man let out a loud roar, and the ground trembled. Waves of mighty pressure fell from the sky with a bang, and the world trembled. All the spirit beasts within 500 kilometers prostrated themselves on the ground and wailed incessantly. This old man had actually gained an initial understanding of the laws.
Luo Yang chuckled softly. Before he arrived, his voice was heard first. “I didn’t expect you to be here too, Golden Crows.”
“Hmph, the natal oath the Ancient Shamans swore were not only for the Qiongqis.” The one who spoke was a white-haired old man. His voice stirred up waves of booming sounds, and some of the weaker shamans felt their hearts rumbling like thunder on dry land. Blood flowed out of their 7 orifices, but their faces remained calm.
Luo Yang smiled and did not say anything as he followed behind him.
After 15 minutes, the white-haired old man’s clothes puffed up, and they fluttered even though there was no wind.
There was a vast amount of spiritual power contained in his voice as he said in a low voice, “Hmph, during the ancient times, the Ancient Shamans were tyrannical and dictatorial, forcing all the race to swear a natal oath. Now, countless eras have passed. Aren’t you going to give us an explanation?”
“Hmph, an explanation?” An elder of the Shaman Tribe stepped forward and waved his sleeve, his eyes filled with killing intent.
“Hmph, how stubborn. The Ancient Shamans’ fate has ended, yet you still don’t know what’s good for you. Let us enter the ancestral land and come into contact with the oath. Otherwise, don’t blame me for destroying the Shaman Tribe regardless of our friendship as fellow races from the primal chaos.” The white-haired elder looked at the elder from the Shaman Tribe with a gloomy look, and he spoke with a vicious tone.
“Hahaha, how could I, Fan Xin, be left out of this great event?”
Following that, a bolt of lightning shot over and exploded like an immortal transcending his tribulation. The person’s beard and hair were white, and he truly had the aura of a powerhouse who had attained his path.
“This… A Ruler who has comprehended the laws?” Someone cried out in surprise.
The members of the Shaman Tribe turned pale. They knew that the clan master had sent a formidable human powerhouse to the Rebirth Cave.
Among the Shaman Tribe, there were a total of 2 Rulers who had comprehended the laws. Now, one of them appeared.
At the spur of the moment, a sigh reverberated in the air.
“Since you’re here, don’t leave.”
That voice was filled with killing intent. The instant it reverberated in the air, it stirred up a storm that swept through the area. The mountains trembled, and the snow on the 5 mountains in the sky broke off. With a bang, an avalanche appeared. The world fell silent, and the faces of the powerful warriors including the man in green and Fan Xin changed drastically. The person who spoke was Du Xie. He lifted his right hand, and the snow that fell from the sky turned into 5 ice dragons. Their scales were vivid and lifelike, and they spat out cold air.
Luo Yang’s heart tightened slightly…
‘Why is he here?’ He thought to himself. He had a faint premonition in his heart.
He had thought that Du Xie had left the Shaman Tribe, which was why he had come. He had not expected to be tricked.
Luo Yang did not know that Du Xie had indeed left but returned. As for Ou Yangming, he was still in the Rebirth Cave.
“Hmph, Fan Xin?” The old man snorted coldly.
With that cold snort, Fan Xin’s heart trembled. Without any hesitation, he tapped his interspatial bag. A white light flashed, and a round sail flew out. It grew with the wind and turned into a streak of light that flew into the distance. There was only one thought left in his mind at the moment, and that was to run as fast as he could. A life-or-death crisis appeared in his mind, and it was unprecedentedly powerful.
He had never felt such power from a Ruler before…
Nevertheless, he had just flown 33 kilometers away when an ice dragon spat out a mouthful of cold air and closed in on him. It turned around and bit down like a spear that could shake the sky.
This attack was not fast, hence everyone could see it clearly.
Having said that, Fan Xin knew he would not be able to dodge the attack.
He spat out 2 mouthfuls of blood essence. His sail was stained with blood, and he accelerated again, but it was still not enough.
The distance between him and the ice dragon was smoothened out. He could even feel a cold chill. A look of despair appeared in his eyes as he said softly, “I don’t want to die. I have yet to understand the great path. I beg you for m…” Before he could finish his words, half of his body was crushed by the ice dragon’s bite, and he exploded into a ball of blood.
It painted the ice dragon’s body red!
The Ruler’s blood and essence made the ice dragon even more real. There were faint signs that it was turning into something real.
At this point, the world fell silent!
Under the moonlight, only the wind whistled.
“This… A Ruler who had comprehended the laws died so easily. Just how strong is he?” Someone asked in disbelief.
One had to know that such a Ruler was considered a mighty figure in the Great Wide World and could establish a sect.
Who knew, he died without knowing why.
Luo Yang’s pupils contracted violently. He knew that the clan master of the Shaman Tribe was very strong, but he had never thought that the elder could kill a Ruler in an instant. Furthermore, Fan Xin was not an ordinary Ruler. There was only one thought left in Luo Yang’s mind, and that was he had fallen into the trap of the Shaman Tribe’s clan master. ‘This… This was all a trap set up by him. Luckily, I have a backup plan. He should be here soon, right?’
On the other hand, Du Xie shifted his gaze to another Ruler dressed in a grey robe.
The grey-robed old man’s heart jumped. Every cell in his body was screaming. He felt regretful. ‘How… how did he get involved in this?’
If he had known that the Shaman Tribe had such an old monster, he would not have been willing to rule the Great Wide World even if he could. However, things had come to this. It was too late for regrets.
These thoughts flashed through the grey-robed elder’s mind, but his actions were fast.
He bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a large mouthful of blood essence. His voice trembled as he uttered, “Blood Flight!” Immediately, he turned into a ray of blood light and covered 50 kilometers in an instant. He disappeared in the blink of an eye. Despite that, not only was he not elated, but he became even more anxious. His Dantian Lake looked as if it was about to dry up. A voice was roaring in his mind, telling him that a casual attack from the monster could destroy his body and soul.
“Hmph, you’re already here, and you still want to leave?” Du Xie’s eyes turned red as he spoke coldly. The killing intent on his body was almost corporeal, dyeing half of the sky blood red. This was the clan master of the Shaman Tribe. He could say whatever he wanted, and with just a single word, he became the law of the world.
He took a step forward. With that, even the entire starry sky trembled.
The nine heavens and ten lands trembled.
Even the Rulers felt as if there were countless thunderbolts striking their hearts. A wisp of blood trickled down the corners of their mouths.
As for the Venerable Ones, following the step from Du Xie, their bodies crumbled, and they vanished into thin air.
“Clan Master?” The eyes of the people from the Shaman Tribe were filled with tears, and their faces were filled with gratitude.
“Grandfather! In the future, I’ll surely work hard in my cultivation. If nobody’s going to bear the burden of the Shaman Tribe, I will.” Du Lingxuan clenched his fists tightly, his sharp fingernails sank deep into his flesh and blood. Previously, he had been mischievous. He would laugh without a care in the world and say childish things. That said, at this moment, he had grown up in an instant because of his responsibility and courage.
