Aspiring to the Immortal Path

Chapter 916: Resolve



“Not an illusion formation”?

The other Immortals were stunned to hear this.

Their preconceived notions had made them believe that they were in an illusion formation, and it was only Flowing Wind’s words that made them think differently.

If this wasn’t an illusion formation, it made sense that Mou Siming’s methods were all proving ineffective.

“But if this isn’t an illusion formation, where is Tang Jie right now? Why can’t we see him?” everyone asked.

Even the Flame Celestial Sovereign was stunned. “Could he have some sort of ability to kill people while in an illusory state?”

“‘Killing in an illusory state’?” Flowing Wind shook his head. “If he had entered the Dao of Yin Yang to an extremely profound level, he might be able to do it, but Tang Jie doesn’t have this ability.”

Flowing Wind was both right and wrong.

With Tang Jie’s mastery of the Dao of Yin Yang, it would be possible for him to kill while in the illusory state, but his Yin Yang power had manifested in his Reflections of Floating Life Dao Art, not in the power to shift his own body between illusion and reality. But if he rose to the Dao-controlling level, he might be able to grasp this ability.

“Then how did he do it?” Origin Defender shrieked. The blow from having his fiends seized was far too great.

“If it’s not an illusion, then it has to be reality,” Flowing Wind muttered. Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and he shouted, “Everyone, be careful! This might be an overlapping dimension formation!”

‘An overlapping dimension formation’? This left all of them aghast.

Just as was implied by the name, this was a special method to overlap two dimensions on top of each other. Both were real, and one could travel between them. Flowing Wind had heard of this method from his teacher, and it was said that only formation grandmasters could employ them, and only after satisfying two conditions: entering the Dao of Space and having a complete small world.

‘A small world’?

As this term came to mind, Flowing Wind realized what was going on, shouting, “Be careful! This might be that Tang Jie’s small world!”

“What?” everyone said in shock.

The Vast Wilderness Continent was a place of vast and profound knowledge, so they were all aware of what a small world signified.

It was one thing if this small world was still incomplete, but another if it was complete, as it meant that they had entered the home base of the enemy.

This was because the entire world could transform at that moment to greatly limit the people within. As for how they were limited, that would depend on the world. If Tang Jie wanted, he could create a world with no spiritual energy, forcing all cultivators to rely on their personal spiritual energy reserves rather than drawing spiritual energy from the surroundings.

Flowing Wind raised the Overflowing Heaven Mirror and spat a mouthful of blood onto it. Mysterious runes immediately emerged on its surface, shimmering in various colors, radiating a wondrous light.

Gazing at this light, Flowing Wind said, “The framework of this small world is basically complete, but while the establishment of its Dao has begun, it is not yet done. Damn it; just how did this kid manage to develop a small world this far?”

Even someone as composed as him couldn’t conceal the shock in his voice.

While small worlds were nice to have, the investment needed to make them was so great that even a genius of the Heaven’s Equal Sect like him did not have one. How could Tang Jie have one, and have developed it to such an astonishing level?

But a moment later, greed appeared in their eyes.

A small world! A complete and independent small world, with a complete framework and a nascent Dao! If they could kill Tang Jie, this small world might be theirs.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign was also stunned. Tang Jie had clearly possessed this small world for a long time, and he could even identify a few special attributes of the Blood River Domain within it.

But in their battle at the Court of Myriad Domains, Tang Jie had never used it!

What did this mean? It meant that even when Tang Jie was being chased around like a dog, he had actually been holding back.

If he was holding back in a situation like that… The Flame Celestial Sovereign suddenly felt like Tang Jie’s real strength was much higher than he had assumed, and victory no longer seemed so certain.

Meanwhile, the others were all the more eager to take Tang Jie down, their appetites piqued by this small world.

Even the normally indifferent Flowing Wind had gotten emotional. Glancing at the Overflowing Heaven Mirror, he said, “Since these are overlapping dimensions, there should be a passage between the two. Everyone, split up and look. Look for Space power. Any place you find spatial ripples should be the passage between the two dimensions.”

The cultivators agreed and flew off in all directions.

From a distance, Flowing Wind shouted, “If you find the passage, inform everyone else. Don’t try and go in alone!”

Everyone sneered, ignoring this advice.

This was a small world! Whoever killed Tang Jie would take it! This was what all of them were thinking.

Meanwhile, in the Five Origins Estate dimension, Tang Jie suddenly let out a gasp of surprise. Turning around, he smiled. “As expected, they split up.”

The small world was his, so he naturally knew everything going on inside it.

But he was in no rush. Their splitting up was part of his plan, so he continued his struggle against the dragon and phoenix.

The dragon and phoenix weren’t just Void Returning fiends in name.

This dragon was a thousand feet long, a sky-blue ice dragon. A single breath could blanket the world in ice.

The phoenix was a large firebird, and its Wildfire Flame even surpassed the Vermillion Bird’s Southern Divine Fire. However, as it wasn’t proficient in a Great Dao, it couldn’t constantly shift between illusion and reality like the Vermillion Bird.

In normal circumstances, even with the Myriad Immortals Cauldron, Tang Jie would have never been able to subdue these two. Luckily, these were fiends who had already been subdued once, and their wild nature had long ago been tamed. The Myriad Immortals Cauldron’s real target of suppression was the jungle chess board, seizing its control over the fiends, which was how it was holding down the fiends.

Tang Jie originally didn’t plan to subdue these two fiends, but such an excellent opportunity had presented itself right at the start, so he couldn’t just let it go. As he put his full might into suppressing the fiends, the dragon and phoenix wailed.

Origin Defender saw all of this, which only made him more frantic. He knew that these two fiends were at their limit, but he still hadn’t found the passage. By the time he found the passage, Tang Jie might have already subdued the fiends.

Origin Defender naturally knew that Tang Jie subduing two Void Returning fiends would pose a major problem.

Hardening his heart, he shouted, “Even if I have to lose this Dao armament, I won’t let you succeed!”

He chopped his hand at the jungle chess board.

This was truly a fierce resolve! Just like that, he shattered this pseudo–Dao armament.

Just when the two fiends were about to be subdued, the dragon and phoenix suddenly let out mighty cries, unleashing an unprecedented strength that sent the Myriad Immortals Cauldron flying.

“Not good!” Tang Jie paled.

Seeing this, how could he not understand what had happened?

He just hadn’t expected that Origin Defender to be so willing to destroy a pseudo–Dao armament. In the end, he wasn’t the only one in the world with a powerful resolve.

And Origin Defender’s act had created a lot of problems for Tang Jie.

The ice dragon and fire phoenix lunged at Tang Jie.
