Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 1285 - Chi Ming

Chapter 1285: Chi Ming

The 10,000 Dragons Valley.

Dark clouds covered the sky. The dragon emperor raised his head, his eyes filled with contemplation.

“First Elder said that the great calamity is coming. What exactly is this great calamity?”

The Fifth World was a newborn world. The powerhouses here did not have a clear understanding of the great calamity that would destroy the world.

All of a sudden, the dragon emperor frowned slightly. He took out a jade token from his interspatial ring, and a hateful figure appeared on the token.

“Baldy, why are you looking for me?”

The dragon emperor’s eyes were filled with displeasure. This guy had always been against the Dragons, and yet he still had the face to contact him at this moment.

Seeing that the other party did not speak for a long time, he berated, “Speak!”

The great ancestor of the Phoenixes was the one that appeared on the token. He was choked by the dragon emperor’s words and said, “Big black worm, I’m being kind enough to give you a reminder so don’t be ungrateful!”

“Would you be so kind?”

There was some doubt in the dragon emperor’s eyes, but he acted as if he did not care. He said, “Tell me, what’s the matter?”

“The Immortal Path to Heaven is about to open…” The voice of the Phoenixes’ great ancestor was very low.

The dragon emperor’s eyes narrowed, and the look on his face immediately became serious. “Are you sure you’re not mistaken? The Immortal Path to Heaven is about to open? Which world? What does it have to do with us?”

“Don’t you understand? The Immortal Path to Heaven will be opened in the Great Wide World. I advise you to make preparations as soon as possible so that the Dragons won’t be left with no descendants in a few years,” the great ancestor of the Phoenixes responded coldly.

“Old fool, why should I believe you?”

“It’s up to you to believe it or not!”

Afterward, the figure on the jade token disappeared.

The dragon emperor gritted his teeth in anger. The great ancestor of the Phoenixes would not tell him this information for no reason, and there was no need for him to lie to him. After all, it would not do them any good.

‘Just now, First Elder said that he had a premonition of a crisis between Heaven and Earth. Could this be it?’

The dragon emperor thought to himself.

‘No, I have to confirm it with First Elder right away. This isn’t a small matter. I mustn’t be careless.’

A few days passed quickly.

Ou Yangming ate some pills and recuperated for a few days. His body had recovered by 50%.

It would take a long time for the remaining injuries to recover. Time waited for no man. He had to go to the Enlightenment Pavilion.

Ou Yangming planned to leave the Mystic Sky Sect. He wanted to find a place to cultivate in seclusion. First, he had to recover his body to its peak condition. Then, he had to digest the Ancient Demons’ blood essences that he had gotten from the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce.

He did not know how many Dripping Blood Stones the blood essences could fuse with him.

There were many Dripping Blood Stones in Ou Yangming’s storage space. After fusing with them, his strength would increase again.

Before leaving the Mystic Sky Sect, he returned to the Spiritual Herbs Mountain from before.

“Greetings, Ruler Ming.”

As soon as Ou Yangming arrived, he was discovered by Steward Mo. The steward hurriedly ran over and knelt on the ground.

The steward had been worried and afraid these days. He had inquired many times. As long as Ruler Ming was still in the Mystic Sky Sect, he could not calm down.

Steward Mo was very humble. He knelt on the ground and wished he could bury his head in the ground.

“Steward Mo, get up and speak,” Ou Yangming said calmly.

Upon hearing Ou Yangming’s words, Steward Mo dared to raise his head. He said yes and slowly got up.

He lowered his head, not daring to look into Ou Yangming’s eyes.

“Ruler Ming.”

Song Qingshan was also there. He looked at Ou Yangming with a complicated look and finally said respectfully.

Ou Yangming smiled. “Song Qingshan, don’t stand on ceremony. Just treat me as I was before.”

Song Qingshan laughed bitterly. Ou Yangming was now the famous Ruler Ming. He was a mighty powerhouse who was even more powerful than their sect leader. As such, Song Qingchan did not have the courage to do so.

Ou Yangming looked at Steward Mo. “Do you know your mistake?”

‘It’s Coming.’

Steward Mo’s body trembled, and he hurriedly said, “Ruler Ming, I know my mistake. I shouldn’t have listened to the slander and disrespected you.”

“Where are the Bai brothers now?” Ou Yangming asked.

Steward Mo hurriedly said, “I’ve already locked up those 2 little br*ts. You can deal with them at any time.”

“There’s nothing to deal with. I think they’re more suitable for the Firewood Mountain. Let them go there then,” Ou Yangming said calmly.

“Yes, sir, you’re merciful,” Steward Mo said respectfully.

Those 2 br*ts had schemed against Ou Yangming time and time again. Even a clay figurine still had some heat left in it. The young fellow was not in the mood to argue with the brothers, but he could not let them have it easy either.

Ou Yangming continued, “As for you, take care of Song Qingshan in the outer sect in the future. If he’s wronged, I’ll hold you responsible.”

“Yes, sir.” Steward Mo’s eyes were filled with surprise and joy.

To him, this was not a punishment but a reward.

Taking care of Song Qingshan was an easy task. Steward Mo was an outer sect steward, to begin with, so it was easy for him to take care of an outer sect disciple.

This was not the main point. The main point was that he was helping Ruler Ming.

Ou Yangming saw through Steward Mo’s thoughts at a glance and said coldly, “Don’t try to bluff and cheat in my name in the Mystic Sky Sect. Otherwise, I won’t be so polite next time!”

“Yes, yes…”

Steward Mo’s head was drenched in sweat. Ruler Ming had guessed his thoughts.

If he was under the banner of helping Ou Yangming, the elders of the Mystic Sky Sect would probably be polite to him. This was a piece of tiger skin, but it was a pity that he could not use it.

Outside the Mystic Sky Sect’s mountain gate.

A man wearing a Taoist robe was standing on a mountain in the distance.

“The Nine-sworded Ruler is really an idiot. He actually brought that thing with him.”

After cursing, his mood improved a little. The man was very patient. He had been waiting here for a few days, and his body had not moved at all.

If not for the cursing just now, people would even think that he was a statue.

“It’s been so long. Why hasn’t that little b*stard come out yet?”

The man looked in the direction of the Mystic Sky Sect. He did not go in. There seemed to be something in there that made him afraid.

After a long time, a figure finally flew out from the Mystic Sky Sect. When he saw this person, a bright light flashed in his eyes.

Once that person came out, he released a large tortoise. He stepped on the tortoise and turned into a long stream of light. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

The man in the Taoist robe sneered, and his body disappeared into thin air.

On the Swift Tortoise’s body, Ou Yangming frowned slightly. A look of unease flashed in his eyes.

He turned around and looked behind him.

It was empty. There was no one there at all. Moreover, with the tortoise’s speed, not many third-step powerhouses would be able to catch up to him.

‘What’s going on? Why do I feel like someone is following me?’ Ou Yangming thought to himself.

He felt that this thing was very strange. Sometimes it was very accurate, and sometimes it was wrong. He checked twice again and released his spiritual sense, but he still could not find anything. He then retracted his gaze and knocked on the Swift Tortoise’s shell twice.

“Faster, Swift Tortoise!” With that, the tortoise’s speed increased again, where it had increased to its maximum speed.

In the void, the man in the Taoist robe from earlier appeared.

“Good lad, you’re quite vigilant. Since you can sense my existence, it’s no wonder that the Nine-sworded Ruler died at your hands.”

Subsequently, his body disappeared again.

After a few hours, the 2 of them had left the Mystic Sky Sect a great distance away.

The horizon was filled with red clouds. All of a sudden, the space in front of Ou Yangming moved abruptly, and a figure walked out from within.

Ou Yangming’s pupils contracted, and the Swift Tortoise also stopped.

“Was it you who followed me just now?” Ou Yangming asked.

No wonder he kept feeling that someone was following him. He thought it was an illusion, but he did not expect it to be true.

“Not bad.”

The man in the Taoist robe sneered. He looked at Ou Yangming and said indifferently.

Ou Yangming did not look too good. He could sense that this person was very formidable. The man had been chasing him for so long, which meant that the other party was an almighty powerhouse in the third step. Furthermore, unless an ordinary almighty powerhouse had special methods, one would not be able to avoid his detection because he was even stronger.

“Who exactly are you?”

Ou Yangming’s eyes were filled with wariness. The spiritual power in his body circulated, and he planned to leave this place at any time.

At this moment, his strength was less than 50% of what it was before, and he had even lost the Reincarnation Spear. It would be fine if he were to face an ordinary person in the third step. Despite that, if he were to face someone like Ruler Ying, he would not have any strength to fight back.

“My name is Chi Ming.”

The old man in the Taoist robe narrowed his eyes. He did not hide his name.

“Chi Ming?”

Hearing this name, Ou Yangming’s body trembled. He quickly put away the Swift Tortoise and teleported away.

If it was not for the Nine-sworded Ruler, Ou Yangming would not have known what the name Chi Ming meant. Now, he was clear about it.

Chi Ming was the second elder of the Heavenly Path Alliance in the Third World. He was incredibly powerful and controlled 30% of the Heavenly Path Alliance’s power. Even the Nine-sworded Ruler had to bow at him respectfully. This man was a peerless mighty figure. Even if Ou Yangming was at his peak, he would not be a match for the man, let alone in his state at the moment.

‘Run!” Ou Yangming didn’t hesitate. This was his only choice.

“Looks like you know me. It should be the Nine-sworded Ruler who told you, right?”

The Taoist-robed old man laughed. Ou Yangming had just teleported out when the other party easily caught up.

At this time, the man stretched out his hand!

‘Heaven’s Domain…’ Ou Yangming felt some despair in his heart.

This man was the same as the old man behind Ruler Ying. He was also a mighty figure who was a half step to the Heavenly Rank and had grasped Heaven’s Domain. Ou Yangming’s law powers were completely ineffective, and his physical strength was no match for the man.

“Boom!” His body fell to the ground.

“Extermination!” Ou Yangming roared. He did not have the Reincarnation Spear, but he could still use his profound meanings.

Having said that, the half-baked profound meanings did not seem to be of much use against Chi Ming. His palm directly pierced through the profound meanings and grabbed toward Ou Yangming. The young fellow did not even have time to use the Enlightenment Pavilion to hide. He was already unable to move as Chi Ming’s large dark brown hand pressed him to the ground.

“You’ve mastered the profound meanings of extermination at such a young age. It seems like you’ve had a great opportunity.”

Chi Ming coldly looked at Ou Yangming, who was being suppressed by him.

The corner of his mouth curled up. He smiled faintly and said, “Let me see what your opportunity is then!”

He stretched out his fingers and pressed it toward Ou Yangming’s head.
