Aspiring to the Immortal Path

Nobody had seen how Jade Truth had died.

But they had at least confirmed one thing. Tang Jie had killed Jade Truth using his own strength.

Together with Origin Defender's death, everyone came to the terrifying realization that reality had developed in the worst direction—the law that had stood for thousands of years had been overturned, and a new miracle was being born.

Alas, the role they played in this process was not the creator of the miracle, but the stepping stone.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign felt fear and panic, as he found that the position of hunter and prey had been reversed. Tang Jie was now the hunter, not them!

Calmly and patiently, using the terrain, he was hunting them down, one by one.

No, this can't be real! the Flame Celestial Sovereign inwardly bellowed. He harnessed all his Origin Flames and burned up all the metal soulbugs, causing their carcasses to fall from the sky.

But Yiyi then unleashed a new set of animals. These were rainbow spotted toads that spat out a colored gas that one could instantly tell was toxic. But when they directly interacted with it, they found that the toxicity was pitifully low. On the other hand, their croaks had the ability to attack the soul directly. One toad's Divine Soul attack was naturally insignificant, but thousands of toads attacking together and empowered by a formation couldn't be ignored. The Origin Flames once more swept out, obliterating those toads.

Right after they had finished the toads, Yiyi threw out another lot. As the previous pack was killed, another was released, and with a small world backing her, Yiyi had an endless number of strange creatures to pick from. Some of them were in forms that they recognized, like toads, snakes, and giant mosquitoes, but there were also two-headed rainbow bugs, finned fishes that flew on land, trees with ghost faces, and a bizarre transparent creature that could reflect all light.

While these strange creatures weren't very strong, their various eccentricities created many problems.

As more and more animals appeared, their surroundings also constantly shifted, going from cantankerous thunderstorms to searing droughts. They were battered here and there by lightning, sandstorms, hail, flames, frost blades, and even a sea of blood.

Formations alongside exotic beasts made for a terrifyingly powerful combination, and the fiends and creatures Yiyi threw out were only getting stronger and stronger. In front of Earth Immortals, their power was limited, as they could be eliminated with the wave of a hand, but it still required that "wave of a hand."

It seemed like Yiyi really did have more than a thousand kinds of creatures and several dozen formations.

Although it was impossible for tricks of this level to exhaust them, with them being capable of lasting more than a year at this intensity, Yiyi's intention wasn't to grind them down, but to buy time.

In that image in the sky, Tang Jie was on a Killing Spree—Jade Truth had died two more times.

They hadn't been able to see what had happened the second time, but during the third time, they finally saw something.

A sword!

It was a flashing golden sword that created hundreds of illusory swords in the sky that poured down like a waterfall, engulfing Jade Truth. And thus, Jade Truth died.

The defensive robe he had worn, the Imperishable Law Robe, had been sliced and diced into shreds.

The Imperishable Dao Robe actually was not a purely defensive Dao armament. Its Dao was Life, and a spirit dwelled within the robe that could use the Great Dao to constantly regenerate. Even though it couldn't stop Tang Jie's Skyrend Swordfall, it could come back again and again. While it did have some defensive ability, it was all too fragile in front of Tang Jie's Sovereign Blade and Slaughter Dao Art, so it joined its master in dying and being reborn again.

As the cultivators watched on in shock, Yiyi continued to happily throw out a random mishmash of things.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign frantically asked, "How have you not found that little bastard yet?"

Flowing Wind shook his head. "She's in that small world and using a spatial passage to release all these strange things at us, which is why I haven't been able to trace her so far. But don't panic. I'm in the middle of calculations right now, and I will soon be able to find that girl."

He was right on the mark. Yiyi was in the Yellow Court World, and with her were Ice Phoenix, He Chong, Duan Fourth, and Deng Yuqing. Behind them, a formation was drawing vast numbers of exotic beasts into a spatial passage.

Floating above them was another crystal which displayed Flowing Wind and the others.

Although Yiyi was laughing and giggling to tease those cultivators, she actually had a very serious expression. She was well aware that fooling several Earth Immortals, particularly one proficient in the Dao of Fate, was extremely difficult.

She was mocking them, poking fun at them, throwing out various kinds of exotic creatures, and activating formations all for the sake of confusing their senses and forcing them to be cautious. If she made the slightest mistake, Flowing Wind might be able to sense her location, and a single attack would be enough to kill all of them.

As Duan Fourth let out a cloud of fog grasshoppers, Yiyi suddenly felt a strange energy traveling along the passage.

Grimacing, she said, "Not good! He found the passage."

She slapped her hand on the passage, instantly destroying it. She then waved her hand, summoning a new one.

Tang Jie had prepared ten-some passages and used a secret art to conceal them so that they could be rotated through. Once one was discovered, it was destroyed.

This was the fifth that Flowing Wind had discovered, and Yiyi still had twelve she could use, which was theoretically enough. But Yiyi sensed a hidden threat—as Flowing Wind grew more and more familiar with Yiyi's methods, he found the passages faster and faster. Currently, the Flame Celestial Sovereign and the others had taken on the task of breaking the formations and killing fiends while Flowing Wind focused solely on finding the passages.

This allowed him to slowly get immersed in his work and find passages faster.

Not only that, this guy also used schemes against schemes. He freely released his energy in every direction, so that it might creep into a passage even if he hadn't found it yet, at which point Yiyi might sense Flowing Wind's energy and destroy the passage, reducing the amount of work he needed to do.

Yiyi sensed that this might be a trick from Flowing Wind, but she had no choice but to respond this way. After all, the one time it was real could result in disastrous consequences.

Time passed, and the number of passages continued to fall.

In the sky, Tang Jie was already at Rampage, but seven of the passages had been lost.

Yiyi didn't know how much longer Jade Truth could last, but she had to hold on. If Flowing Wind got out, then he would ruin Tang Jie's plan to kill another Immortal. If Jade Truth got a chance to catch his breath, all their previous effort would be for naught.

Thus, Yiyi had to focus even more.

Flowing Wind smiled. "The mocking has decreased while the creatures have grown stronger. Alas, seeing as there are no more new tricks, it seems that she's running out of ideas."

The Flame Celestial Sovereign said, "But Brother Jade Truth might not be able to last much longer!"

"Even better," Flowing Wind casually said. "My Heaven's Equal Sect has lost one person, so why shouldn't the Stellar Net Gate? And don't we also have Sir Mou?"

"We don't even know if he's alive!"

Flowing Wind answered, "He's still alive. His light can still be found on the Web of Fate. He has been temporarily imprisoned by a formation and two women. But it won't be long before he escapes… perhaps even before us."
