In my twilight years of cultivating, I became a Supreme Daoist of the Longevity Path-Chapter 975

Chapter 975: 391: Friends come from nowhere!

With the spirit of immortals and knights, we cultivators_2 Chapter 975: 391: Friends come from nowhere!

With the spirit of immortals and knights, we cultivators_2 “There really isn’t a single evil cultivator guarding this place anymore, it seems the information was accurate.

They are now fighting on their own, every man for himself…”

On a gigantic spirit boat as massive as a mountain, Red Lotus Real Monarch Mi Changzai spoke, turning his head toward a green-haired male cultivator beside him and said.

“Sect Leader Chen, I’m afraid that next the Counterattack Cultivators Alliance will issue us orders to take part in the pursuit and elimination of the Nascent Soul True Monarchs among the Outer Realm Evil Cultivators…”

This green-haired male cultivator was naturally one of Chen Dengming’s Heavenly Immortal incarnations.

Ever since the Longevity Sect had stabilized and the Counterattack Cultivators Alliance had confirmed that the Great Curtain Passage had been destroyed, Chen Dengming’s incarnation, after unsuccessfully searching for the Ancestor, followed the cultivator army on this counteroffensive expedition into the Western Region to eradicate the numerous remaining Outer Realm Evil Cultivators and Demon Cultivation traitors.

This pursuit could not afford to be delayed.

...

If delayed, it would give the many remnants, scattered across the Four Seas and Four Realms, a chance to catch their breath, allowing these headless dragons, who had been leaderless since losing the Outer Domain Devil Lord, to regroup once more.

Even the birth of a second leader to replace the Devil Lord was possible, in which case the war would still be difficult to end in the short term.

At that moment, facing Mi Changzai’s probing words, Chen Dengming replied calmly, “If joining the plan to hunt down the Nascent Soul evil cultivators can help end the war earlier, then it is a good thing.

Too many people have died in this great war, it’s time to put an end to it.”

As he spoke, his nose had already picked up the stench of decay wafting up from below.

At this, the many cultivators aboard the spirit boat grew restless.

Chen Dengming looked down with a grim expression on his face.

Below, among the mountains, corpses were strewn everywhere; many bodies were even hung and bound on trees, pierced through their chins and skulls by sharp branches, with some having their chests split open and entrails exposed.

Many corpses had already been pecked to skeletal remains by black crows, presenting an extremely pitiful sight.

Yet, from some of the clothing, it was still recognizable that these were cultivators from the Counterattack Cultivators Alliance.

Clearly aware of their defeat, the disbanded army of evil cultivators savagely massacred many captured members of the Counterattack Cultivators Alliance and Loose Cultivators in their retreat to vent their frustration, perhaps even capturing their Divine Spirits.

Mi Changzai’s face was twisted with disgust, “This group of evil cultivators and those fallen traitors all deserve to die!”

Just then, Chen Dengming’s body shook, his gaze instantly locking onto a ‘forest of corpses’ in the woods below.

His eyes finally rested on a woman in the very center of the corpse forest.

The woman’s appearance was withered and greatly differed from her previously pleasant image, her body exposed; she was split open, as if she had suffered great humiliation before many prior to her death.

If not for her eyes and brows that resembled Li Xue’s, and the lingering Spiritual Might on her body, along with the conspicuously raised terrain, Chen Dengming might not have recognized her in time.

This woman was none other than Cheng Yunxue, Li Rong’s wife from the Five Elements Escape Sect and mother of his daughter-in-law, Li Xue.

Before the Four Regions fell, Chen Dengming had met her once in a border town and had inquired about her whereabouts on behalf of his daughter-in-law Li Xue, but there had been no news.

Years had passed, Li Xue and Li Rong were both dead, the war had passed, and Cheng Yunxue had reappeared, but in such a humiliating and cruel manner.

“Sect Leader Chen…

Is this person an old acquaintance?” Mi Changzai, sensing something, asked from the side.

Chen Dengming sighed, then flew downward.

“Just a cultivator I had met once, who was once a Golden Core Great Cultivator, yet it’s unthinkable to fall to such a plight.”

A dignified Golden Core Elder of the mighty Five Elements Escape Sect, such a manner of death, was too disgraceful.

Chen Dengming did not wish to reveal too much about Cheng Yunxue’s identity, to avoid adding to the insult.

He flew down, covered Cheng Yunxue’s body, and collected it respectfully.

Regardless of whether Li Xue had fallen under the Devil Lord’s spells and turned to Demon Cultivation, merely on account of his old friendship with Li Rong, the old neighbor, he could not let Cheng Yunxue’s body lay dishonored like this.

Mi Changzai, seeing this, was also deeply touched.

Many pursue the path of cultivation, with most becoming more powerful yet having their human sensibilities and emotions eroded by time, becoming cold and indifferent, only possessing the lofty spirit of an immortal, self-centered and losing all human touch.

He gave the command resoundingly, “Many among our dead companions scattered in these woods were once our fellow cultivators.

They now lie exposed to the elements, pecked by ten thousand crows, a sight unbearable to witness.

Let us join our powers and bid them farewell, and let their noble souls rest in peace!”

One after another, spirit boats slowly came to a halt, and the many cultivators on board, seeing the sight of corpses spread all around, also felt a mournful kinship and gradually began to cry out in response.

“Bid our fellow cultivators farewell!”

“Let their noble souls rest in peace!”

For a moment, Fire Spiritual Energy from the heavens and earth gathered tumultuously; many cultivators skilled in the Fire Wall Technique flew down from the spirit boats, starting to cast spells that incinerated the bodies of the deceased cultivators.

Some novice Qi Cultivation practitioners initiated the Fireball Technique, only to be immediately chastised by their seniors.

The Fireball Technique is not the same as the Fire Wall Technique.

The Fire Wall Technique might be higher in tier, mainly due to the broader range of its casting, while the Fireball Technique included explosive harm; just smashing them down would not cremate the bodies, but obliterate all traces of them instead.

Soon, a sweeping sea of fire rose upon the Black Crow Mountain Range, billowing up thick smoke.

Cultivators’ figures either floated in spiritual light in the air or stood on the decks of the spirit boats, raising their hands in salutation to send off the departed.

Chen Dengming, witnessing such a scene, finally showed a smile filled with warmth in his steady gaze, revealing a hint of relief and a touch of joy.
