Chapter 332: Dao Sanctified, Besieged Riyue
On Chuyang Peak.
Jiang Ming had returned. He laid comfortably on the rattan chair, swaying.
With a snap of his fingers, Hua Huo brought him immortal tea, Hua Yu brought him a fruit plate, Hua Rui gave him a shoulder massage while Hua Jing gave him a legs massage.
He was enjoying the sweet smell of flowers, drinking immortal tea and occasionally having a piece of fruit.
Perfect!
“Fighting and killing is not as comfortable as this!” Jiang Ming exclaimed earnestly.
Then he called up the Human Path Record to check the items in it.
There were Demi-Sage Weapons which included the Silver Luminance Battle Armor, Heavenly Emperor Sword, Heavenly Emperor Seal, Emperor Crown, and Sky Demon Saber; Saint Weapon which included the Blood Banner; and not to mention other items of lower levels like the Taiye Sword, a Quasi-Sage Weapon at its pinnacle.
Jiang Ming felt even greater looking at his collections.
After he threw the dying Great Demon Venerate to Yu Fei, he immediately returned through the Human Path Records. As for what would happen next?
He did not care!
Flipping through pages.
‘What!’
Jiang Ming stared at the ‘Status’ of Heavenly Buddha as he read.
Heavenly Buddha thought it was Riyue Changfeng who killed the Great Demon Venerate.
Even the death of Tai Jian and the punch that punched into the Abyss were the acts of this foreigner.
Anyway, their analysis was logical. Only the Saint Lord could easily achieve those three situations depicted.
Nevertheless, the Saint Lord had long left. Even if he was still around, why would he do such nonsense? He was, after all, overweening and domineering.
Other than the Saint Lord himself, who else in infinite realms could do it? Not even the former Heavenly Emperor. What’s more the Heavenly Buddha, Dragon Monarch and the rest who were of lower level?
There was also Jiang Ming. Even though that kid’s combat strength was strong, he used the method of Dao vessels detonation. It was impossible for him to punch through the Abyss.
The death of the Great Demon Venerate surprisingly didn’t create any noise at all.
Hence, after filtering out irrelevant suspects, only Riyue Changfeng, whoseability was unknown, was the only suspect left.
This man was, after all, from foreign space. It was the legendary Sea of Chaos. It was said that this was the source of Dao, the ultimate destination of all cultivators. Even the Saint Lord could not help going there to chase for higher achievement.
In this case, how would an expert coming from that place be that simple?
Look at how Demon Venerate Bi Jiu from the Demon Holy Place was suppressed in an instant. This intimidated the Demon Holy Place from taking their revenge.
This proved how strong he was. In particular, he not only suppressed but also enslaved and twisted the mind.
Such a capability was achievable by the Heavenly Buddha and the likes only if there was a gap of 10 millions of years in between the suppression and enslavement. Yet, he did it almost simultaneously.
‘It’d be interesting if Riyue Changfeng was to be besieged!’ Jiang Ming gloated.
They were merely common friends. Their relationship wasn’t up to the stage whereby they could entrust their life to each other.
Moreover, there were barely any trustworthy adults considering the number of confidants was only fewer than expected.
In fact, more than 99% of adults faced difficulty in having any confidant, be it from the same gender or different gender.
Jiang Ming was continuously flipping through the Human Path Records to check on the Status of Heavenly Buddha and the likes. Based on what he was reading, he could make assumptions on what was happening in the Abyss.
At this time, a powerful force was surging from the back of the mountain.
The aura was familiar to Jiang Ming. So he turned to look in the direction.
He saw Xi Yao subconsciously floating up to 10 meters high. She was surrounded by indifferent rays and immortal spiritual qi overhead turned into whirlwinds and poured into her head.
Her aura was surging continuously.
“Finally she’s a breakthrough!” Jiang Ming exclaimed.
It was followed by a startle because he was wondering why he used the word ‘finally’. After all, it was merely a year since they got here.
‘It’s considered fast that under an extreme situation, she still manages to step into the immortal realm in just a year.’
‘No, I think it’s me who’s too fast!’
Jiang Ming felt rather melancholy.
He again recalled that his Junior Sister used to tease Xi Yao for her incapability to resist even a drop of liquid. It didn’t seem that she could now either!
What a nasty thought.
Jiang Ming immediately cut it off with the sword of his will.
After some thoughts, Jiang Ming threw an extreme Yin spiritual bead, which was appropriate, into Xi Yao’s body.
He then extracted an innate spiritual qi to be fused into her body.
In just a while, Xi Yao had successfully broken through. Even if she just had a breakthrough, her aura was much stronger than a common immortal at pinnacle.
Xi Yao began consolidating her cultivation base and converging her aura.
‘She’s gotten more beautiful!’
Jiang Ming was looking at her, full of admiration. He was merely admiring her without any ill-intention. Neither did he evoke his divine eyes to have a peek at her.
‘Sigh. I’m such a hypocrite.’
…
In the Abyss.
Riyue Changfeng was enjoying his tea. He was anticipating a splendid drama of battles among many experts that started from the Abyss inside out, and eventually broke through the Abyss.
He didn’t expect to see the Heavenly Buddha and the other experts to approach him as soon as they got out.
Yu Fei flattered her sleeves, bringing along with her, the pink mists, when she stared at Riyue Changfeng. With an alluring smile on her face, she said in a mellow voice that drove the soul crazy, “Brother Riyue, did you kill the Great Demon Venerate?”
“I killed him?” Riyue Changfeng showed no hint of fear but was startled when he heard Yu Fei’s words. Meanwhile, wisdom thoughts ran wildly through his mind, collided and detached until he reached a conclusion: the Great Demon Venerate was killed by an inexplicable expert. None of them knew who the expert was, just like the punch that suddenly appeared in the Abyss.
He shook his head, “I must abide by the rule that prohibits me from entering a secret realm without being invited. Because this secret realm is owned by the Saint Demon Lord, who’s still alive, I can’t go in at all!”
“There’s actually such a rule!” Yu Fei was surprised.
“The great Dao can revolve on rules. Else, the Chaos would have gone chaotic.” Riyue Changfeng rose to his feet and smiled rather indifferently, “You don’t believe?”
“It’s difficult to!” The Heavenly Buddha chimed in, “Because the mean you used against Bi Jiu was too strong, and too strange. Even though Bi Jiu is a Demon Venerate, it took you just a moment to suppress him, so much so that his mind and will were twisted. This isn’t achievable even by the Saint Lord himself!”
Vermilion Bird looked grave while she was listening. Bi Jiu was, after all, an elder of her Demon Holy Palace.
“The Abyss was punched prior to the act of Abyss going against the Heaven Court. We thought it was from the Heavenly Emperor. But as we dwelled on it, we couldn’t believe that it was the act of the Heavenly Emperor himself!” The Heavenly Buddha continued, “In the secret realm of the Saint Demon Lord, Tai Jian was killed by the special ability of my Fo Sect. It was so fast that it left Tai Jian no opportunity to escape nor could we help him. Who can actually kill him easily when he has a Demi-Sage level defensive Dao vessel? There’s none in the Honggu Heavenly Realm.”
“Moreover, even though the Great Demon Venerate was dying, we were in the secret realm of the Saint Demon Lord located in the Abyss, his territory and he had the Saint Weapon. Yet, he was killed in silence!”
“Both the defensive Dao vessel of Tai Jian and the Saint Weapon of the Great Demon Venerate have disappeared”
“Based on all these, we assume that only someone mysterious like you can do that. Hence, it’s natural that we doubted you’re the culprit. We apologize if we’ve made a false assumption!”
“Please enlighten us too if you aren’t the one!”
The Heavenly Buddha was a wolf in sheep’s clothing indeed.
‘Both the Great Demon Venerate and Tai Jian had died? All Dao vessels are gone before all of them just like that!’ Riyue Changfeng could not help but frown. ‘Who can achieve that?’
Inexplicably, he thought of a person.
