Chapter 82 – Killing the Immortal Fetus
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the intersection of Eastern Region and Zhong Province…
There was a deep chasm, stretching 30,000 miles across with mountains extending on both sides. The roars of tigers and screeches of eagles echoed from time to time, and there were fewer animals here.
Tian Ci came out of a valley.
“Well, it seems like today is my lucky day. I just came out for a walk to lighten my mood. Who knew I would run into an immortal’s cave left behind by a Paradis martial artist?” Tian Ci said while playing with a tiny blade in his hand. The sword energies the blade released from time to time were so powerful they could destroy a mountain with ease.
He leaped into the air and stood on top of a mountain. As he took in the mountain ranges and the deep abyss, the fight he had with Zi Linglong at Reception Peak appeared in his mind.
“I’m an Immortal Fetus with great talent, yet I was defeated by a little girl. What a disgrace!” Tian Ci’s face sank.
“I should’ve taken my greatest weapon out and destroyed her along with the Jiuyang Sect,” he said, but then he sighed.
“Unfortunately, Qing Fengzi from the Qingyun Sect and Old Tie from the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion were there at that time. Why were they so free? Did they not have other things to do? Why must they show up in a fight between the people of the younger generation?” Tian Ci shook his head.
“I must work harder and fuse both the Light Dao Seed and the Dark Dao Seed to form the Dao of Light and Dark. Then, I’ll ascend into the Nascent Soul Realm and form my Primal Spirits. After I return to the school, I’ll not come out of my seclusion until I’ve stepped into the Primal Spirits Realm!”
He had a clear plan for his future.
“Just you wait, Zi Linglong. After I come out of seclusion, I’ll definitely make you yield to me. I want you to be my slave to make up for what you did to me!”
Tian Ci let out a breath. Suddenly, a storm came, and a human figure appeared about 100 feet away from him. Tian Ci did not know who the newcomer was, but he did not have a good feeling about it as fear began to grow in his heart.
The person was none other than Jiang Ming.
Even though he had been 1,000,000 miles away from Tian Ci, he was able to locate him through the Human Paths Record.
“Heaven Suppression Divine Seal!”
Jiang Ming formed the divine seal with his hand as soon as he appeared. The divine seal materialized in the sky and even the night sky dimmed.
Tian Ci opened his mouth, but no voice could come out.
The descending divine seal was so powerful that it exceeded his limit. It caused the Artifacts in his body to be awakened one after another as they came to protect their master.
A pagoda appeared on top of him, a mirror in front of him, and battle armor on his body. All of them were top-grade defensive Dao Vessels.
“What the heck!?” Jiang Ming cursed after seeing those Dao Vessels.
“He truly is beloved by heaven! Very well, then! I would like to see who is stronger, you or me!”
After that, Jiang Ming poured the power of the Dao of Great Decimation into the Heaven Suppression Divine Seal, further amplifying its power to a shocking degree in a few seconds.
Bam!
When the divine seal dropped, the pagoda was crushed, the mirror broke, and the armor on Tian Ci’s body began to dissipate.
As a hopeless expression appeared on Tian Ci’s face, he exploded into a blood mist.
It took Jiang Ming only one divine seal to destroy three top-grade Dao Vessels and kill Tian Ci.
However, Jiang Ming suddenly squinted his eyes and looked into the distance.
He sensed Tian Ci’s presence over there.
“Puppet Substitution?”
He looked toward where Tian Ci was located and saw a broken wooden doll, which then exploded and disappeared.
“Who would have expected him to have such an ability to save his *ss!”
Just as Jiang Ming was about to go after Tian Ci, someone came.
“How dare you! How dare you try to harm the Immortal Fetus? You must have a death wish!”
It was a middle-aged man. He threw something into the air, and a web appeared in the sky. It covered the entire area around Jiang Ming as it tried to pin him down.
Unfortunately, Jiang Ming was a tad faster.
He located Tian Ci with the Human Paths Record and sent his decoy after him.
Then he clapped his hand and turned it over. His palm was pointed outward, and his thumbs and forefingers were interlocked, forming a heart shape aimed at the incoming person.
“Nine Heavenly Cannon!”
Bam!
A crimson light burst forward, engulfing the net-like Dao Vessel as well as the incoming person.
The effect of the Dao Vessel disappeared, and the middle-aged man was gone.
Considering Jiang Ming’s current power, even the most ordinary special ability would have devastating effects.
Whoosh!
The Human Paths Record flipped open, and the information about the middle-aged man appeared.
Name: Liu Yuan
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Cultivation Base: Paradis Realm.
Background: Grand Elder of the Tianyuan School
Relationship: -99
Status: His time was drawn near, and he knew he had no hope in making any progress in his cultivation anymore. He was delighted at the emergence of Tian Ci, the Immortal Fetus, and proposed himself to be his guardian. He followed Tian Ci to Eastern Region but just watched him from afar. He was happy to see that Tian Ci was able to appear victorious from every fight he had fought.
Initially, he thought Tian Ci could make a name for himself after defeating the geniuses in Reception Peak. Little did he expect that Tian Ci would be defeated by Zi Linglong. He was furious at that time, but he sighed inwardly.
‘People always say that there is always another heaven beyond this one. I didn’t expect that there would be such a powerful being in a small place like this one.’ He felt that he should recruit Zi Linglong into the school after escorting Tian Ci back to the school.
He followed behind Tian Ci while on the way back. However, someone appeared and destroyed three Artifacts of Tian Ci. While he was infuriated, he was stunned as well. He hurriedly informed the Supreme Elder in the school and went forward to buy some time.
After watching Tian Ci being blown up and surviving the hit through a special method, he knew he had to step forward even if he was going to die. In the meantime, he hoped that the Supreme Elder would come as soon as possible so that Tian Ci could escape with his life.
He was disappointed at the fact that he was going to die before he could see Tian Ci grow to his full might.
Jiang Ming read and understood the middle-aged man’s information in a second. At the same time, he learned that the Supreme Elder of the Tianyuan School was heading there.
In the meantime, his decoy had arrived on top of Tian Ci.
“Heaven Suppression Divine Seal!”
This decoy had 1/10 of his original power. He flipped his palm, and the divine seal fell downward.
“Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?” Tian Ci asked, his voice desperate.
However, he did not receive any response.
Rumble!
The seal fell, and Tian Ci’s rigid body began to fall apart. Just when he was about to explode into a blood mist, his forehead began to slip from the center. A weapon within his soul, unknown even to him, suddenly awoke.
A terrifying aura swept across the area, and everything stopped moving for a second.
The divine seal was still falling, but it had slowed down.
Suddenly, a sword appeared from the center of Tian Ci’s forehead. It shot into the sky, destroying the divine seal along with Jiang Ming’s decoy.
However, it did not just stop there. The sword locked onto Jiang Ming and flew directly toward his soul in the sea of consciousness.
“An Immortal Weapon!?” Jiang Ming exclaimed, his voice filled with trepidation..
