Aspiring to the Immortal Path-Chapter 771: The Myriad Immortals Cauldron

A shrieking Shi Wunian was sent tumbling through the air.

As he was thrown back, a palm came shooting toward himthe Mystic Moon True Lord had attacked.

Just when it seemed like Shi Wunian was doomed, his entire body erupted with golden light that blocked the Mystic Moon True Lord's attack.

Godhead Palace's defensive abilities were unsurpassed, and the Mystic Moon True Lord was an entire tier below Shi Wunian, so as a result, the palm did nothing.

But just as the palm was blocked, Tang Jie swung an item at Shi Wunian.

The Myriad Immortals Cauldron!

Now that Tang Jie had entered Violet Palace, he could finally use this Dao armament.

A cauldron that fixed the heavens and earth, lorded over Yin and Yang.

The moment the Myriad Immortals Cauldron appeared, Shi Wunian immediately felt its threatening pressure and cried out, "A Dao armament!"

Shi Wunian fell into despair.

If it was just Mystic Moon and Tang Jie, one Deification and one Infant Tending, then even with his injuries, Shi Wunian was not in a completely hopeless situation. After all, the cultivation gap was just too great.

But things were completely different if Tang Jie had a Dao armament.

He didn't know what function this Dao armament had, but he knew that all Dao armaments possessed supreme divine might and were not to be underestimated. If one tried to oppose one without understanding its nature, one could easily end up dead in both body and soul.

His Divine Soul had already been injured by the God-Conquering Merak Sword, and then the Devil Crushing Fist had mangled his physical body. Injured in both body and soul, he had no confidence in taking on two Violet Palace experts supported by a Dao armament. He knew that he would lose if he tried to fight, so he hardened his resolve.

His half-shredded body suddenly imploded, turning into a flood of crimson light that converged within Shi Wunian's body. Shi Wunian turned into a bloody light and flew into the distance, and in the blink of an eye, he had escaped.

"Damn it!" Tang Jie was frantic over the fact that his grand plan had failed to kill Shi Wunian.

He wanted to give chase, but Mystic Moon stopped him. "Don't give chase. The old thing has put everything into escaping, so we won't be able to catch him."

Tang Jie clenched his fists. "This disciple understands, just is a little unwilling. After all, I went through so much effort to trap him, but he still managed to get away."

The Mystic Moon True Lord smiled. "It seems to me that you've gotten used to getting your way back in the Verdant Cloud Domain, thinking that Violet Palace experts are that easy to kill. In truth, anyone who got to this point has something hidden up their sleeve. Shi Wunian is still a Soul Projection Tier cultivator. If he were that easy to kill, he wouldn't be him. But his Divine Soul was heavily injured by the Swordholder, and then you blasted his physical body, after which he had to use a forbidden art, greatly injuring his foundation. In my view, he will need at least two hundred years to recover. Moreover, such is the power of the God-Conquering Sword that if he doesn't recover the right way, he will find it hard to advance any further in this life, and will perhaps even weaken in power."

"Only two hundred years," Tang Jie muttered, clearly not satisfied with this answer. Although he could recover the strength used in that punch in only a few moments, he still was resentful over the fact that Shi Wunian only needed to recover for two hundred years.

The more he thought about it, the more dissatisfied he was. "No, after doing all this, I'll suffer a loss if I don't kill one Violet Palace."

Mystic Moon was startled. "What is your intention?" f(r)eeweb(n)ovel

"Shi Wunian has escaped, but aren't there still some Violet Palace experts down below?" Tang Jie sinisterly said. He turned around and took on the form of Shi Wunian.

Mystic Moon was so stunned that he needed some time to react.

Tang Jie said, "Come and chase me."

He flew down below.

The Mystic Moon True Lord realized that Tang Jie wanted to put on a show so that he could launch a sneak attack as Shi Wunian.

Mystic Moon had spent his entire life cultivating and could be considered a true homebody. When he fought with people, he was always open and honest, never relying on tricks, so he had never expected Tang Jie to do this and was momentarily taken aback.

He didn't know that Tang Jie was familiar with such methods and thought that he had come up with it on the spot. He commented with a bitter smile, "Young people these days really have a lot of ideas."

Though he shook his head in speechlessness, he still gave chase at incredible speed, flourishing his sword and roaring, "Shi Wunian, where are you running!?"

Although his acting was somewhat poor and could be easily identified as fake, Shi Wunian's allies down below didn't have the concentration to spare. When they noticed Shi Wunian charging down, they thought he was coming to help them, and none of them tried to stop him. On the contrary, Ling Xiao sent a watery cloud sweeping toward him, causing Tang Jie to frantically use the Chaoswind Step to evade.

"Eh?" Ling Xiao was startled by this sight.

Tang Jie rushed up to the Sanguine True Lord and said, "Brother Jin, I'll help you deal with Ling Xiao while you hold off that old man for me!"

Jin Shanyue shouted, "Deal!"

Shi Wunian had a higher cultivation realm than him, so having him deal with Ling Xiao while he dealt with Mystic Moon was much more preferable. As for why Shi Wunian, who was one tier higher than he was, was running from Mystic Moon, he didn't have time to think about it.

This was because when Tang Jie passed by him, he pulled out the Sovereign Blade and swung it at Jin Shanyue.

The Ten Extinctions Blade!

Jin Shanyue was facing Mystic Moon and had no idea that Tang Jie would attack him from behind.

But the Spotted Char fiend sensed that something wasn't right and charged at Tang Jie with a roar, spewing out a pillar of black smoke. If one looked carefully, one would see that this pillar of black smoke was actually made of countless flying ants. The Spotted Char was actually a strange symbiote, acting as an ant nest for countless Skyborn Toxin Ants. These ants were as big as grasshoppers, fierce by nature, and born with mandibles that could easily cut through metal. The moment the ants got onto someone, they would devour them until nothing was left.

Not knowing the power of these ants, Tang Jie ignored them and continued to swing his sword. Just when the ants were about to reach him, Ling Xiao waved a sleeve, sweeping the ants away. It was clear that he had recognized his disciple.

Feng Muyuan also realized that something was wrong, shouting, "Brother Jin"

Before he could finish, the Ten Extinctions Blade swept through Jin Shanyue's neck, sending a large head flying into the air. The power of Destruction attached to the head, swiftly destroying it.

But Jin Shanyue still wasn't dead. On the contrary, another head grew out from his chest cavity, and he turned to glare at Tang Jie. "Shi Wunian, what's the meaning of this?"

But then he saw that Tang Jie had gone back to his original form.

"Tang Jie!" Everyone was stunned to see Tang Jie, and they finally realized that they had fallen into a trap set by the Basking Moon Sect.

As for the now-missing Shi Wunian, he had most likely been a hapless victim.

Their confidence fell, and even the force of their offensive dropped. On the other hand, the Basking Moon disciples were energized and were able to strike back.

"Eh?" Tang Jie was startled to see Jin Shanyue growing his head back so quickly.

Although he knew that cutting off the head of a Violet Palace expert didn't mean death, it was rare to see someone shake it off as easily as Jin Shanyue.

While he was surprised, he still moved quickly, taking out the Myriad Immortals Cauldron. But rather than throwing it at Jin Shanyue, he instead targeted the Spotted Char.

The Spotted Char was too focused on saving its master, charging in with no thought of dodging. Seeing the Myriad Immortals Cauldron approaching, it swatted a claw at it. But Jin Shanyue could sense the threatening pressure of the cauldron and shouted, "My baby, dodge! Don't try and take it on directly!"

But it was too late.

The Spotted Char's claw struck the cauldron.

This strike activated all the patterns on the cauldron.

The Immortals and fiends stirred, the clouds roiled, and the world was deprived of light. The Spotted Char's body shrank into a mote of light and was sucked into the cauldron. The cauldron rotated in the air, and black smoke began to rise from it. Inside, one could make out the ethereal form of a fiend tumbling about, screeching and howlingit was the Spotted Char battling with the Myriad Immortals Cauldron.

Although Jin Shanyue didn't know that this was the Myriad Immortals Cauldron or what function this item had, he knew of other treasures that could suck people into them. Once something was sucked inside, it would have to come out quickly or else be stuck inside forever.

He frantically punched at the Myriad Immortals Cauldron.

The Myriad Immortals Cauldron was busy with the fiend and couldn't resist, which was one of its flaws.

But as Jin Shanyue punched, Ling Xiao waved a sleeve, easily neutralizing the attack.

The Sect Master of the Basking Moon Sect was elegant and graceful, even in battle. His attacks weren't sharp or vicious, but they were precisely placed, exhibiting a mastery in countering and neutralization. Although he had yet to kill a person, he had saved many disciples on his side. Under his protection, the likes of Ming Yekong and Tang Jie could fight as they wanted and fully exhibit their might.

Jin Shanyue was intercepted, and at the same time, Mystic Moon and Tang Jie attacked him from two sides, a palm and a sword striking Jin Shanyue in the chest and the back, and Jin Shanyue screamed. But a moment later, his body swiftly grew back, even faster than Tang Jie could recover.

"Even this is possible?" Tang Jie was flabbergasted.

Had this guy entered the Dao of Life?

But Tang Jie knew that this definitely wasn't it. The Sanguine True Lord was a True Lord, not a Celestial Sovereign, so while he might have comprehended the Dao, he couldn't have entered the Dao.

There had to be some unknown secret art at play.

Just as Mystic Moon had said, any Violet Palace expert had a few hidden cards up their sleeves, and killing them was no easy task. freewebnove(l).com

But Tang Jie wasn't convinced. He activated his Celestial Eye, and his Great Dao Realm of Insight appeared.

His Insight was primarily focused on seeing through the weaknesses of his enemies.

But this path was very difficult to follow, several levels more difficult than the Celestial Eye of Illusion. For this reason, it had never had a very prominent effect, only working on a few specially designated targets.

Now that he was at Violet Palace and much stronger, his powers of Insight had also been greatly increased.

Through the Celestial Eye, he saw that some strange substance was flowing within Jin Shanyue's body. Carefully examining it, he smiled and said, "I get it now."

He lightly swung the Sovereign Blade at Jin Shanyue's shoulder blade, and as it dug in, Jin Shanyue shuddered, his movements slowing down a little. With a flick of the blade, Tang Jie removed a small red cicada.

"So it was a parasitic red cicada. True Lord Jin, you really go all out when it comes to your life." Tang Jie was startled at first, and then he spoke in a mocking tone.

Everyone was startled to hear the parasitic red cicada being mentioned, with even Meng Guanshan and Feng Muyuan looking at Jin Shanyue in surprise.

The parasitic red cicada was an extremely rare fiend, and its greatest attribute was that it absorbed a person's life force and stored it up, feeding it to its master whenever they were injured. But the person who had their life force absorbed and the person the life force was fed to weren't the same person. Instead, they had to be two closely related people.

Jin Shanyue had only one son: the deceased Jin Yutang.

In other words, the parasitic red cicada had been sucking the life of his son. Thus, Jin Shanyue's love for his son had been fake. For his own sake, he could sacrifice anything, so it was no wonder he was so irresponsible when it came to his son.

He didn't love his son, not in the slightest. But he feigned being a doting father precisely to create a weak point to deceive his enemies.

This was most shameless behavior.

This was a secret that Jin Shanyue had hid extremely well, but Tang Jie had picked it out with a swing of his sword. Suddenly, the Sovereign Blade turned into a metal umbrella, opening up and splattering the cicada into pieces.

Without the parasitic cicada, Jin Shanyue no longer had such freakish recovery abilities.

A moment later, the Mystic Moon True Lord attacked Jin Shanyue and Tang Jie once more unleashed the Ten Extinctions Blade on Jin Shanyue's back.

This time, he couldn't heal so easily.

At the same time, the battle in the Myriad Immortals Cauldron came to an end.

A Deification-level great fiend ultimately couldn't overcome the pressure of a Dao armament. Its roars faded away into nothingness, and a new image appeared on the Myriad Immortals Cauldron.

A roaring Spotted Char!
