Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 1281: The Mysterious Elder

Boom.

The world seemed to be shaking as Ou Yangming’s pupils suddenly contracted. He gritted his teeth and looked at the elder in the sky.

At the last moment, the elder made a move and grabbed Ruler Ying, allowing Ruler Ying to escape from Ou Yangming’s strongest move.

Ou Yangming had calculated this move for a long time.

He had been holding back and waiting until Ruler Ying let down his guard. He confirmed that he could make a 100% hit before he used it.

Nonetheless, he still failed..,

Ou Yangming had not considered this elder who was hiding in the void, and he had still underestimated the other party’s strength.

In the sky, Ruler Ying’s body gradually recovered to its original state.

He was not hit by Ou Yangming, but he was still injured. Using 3 ultimate moves consecutively had caused his body to be severely overloaded. Especially the last move, which had seriously injured his body.

“You’re courting death!” The elder stretched out his hand and grabbed toward Ou Yangming.

If he had been a step too late, his beloved grandson would have been in danger of dying. Moreover, Ou Yangming’s potential shocked him.

Ou Yangming had mastered the supreme profoundness at such a young age and was an embryo for being equal with heaven. If the elder and Ruler Ying could not become friends with such a person, he had to be destroyed.

After the battle just now, it was impossible for them to become friends with Ou Yangming. Furthermore, this opponent was a native of the Fifth World. When the Immortal Path opened, they would eventually become enemies.

If they were enemies, the young fellow had to be destroyed!

The elder’s palm suddenly enlarged, blotting out the sky and covering the sun.

Consequently, the surrounding space seemed to be locked. Ou Yangming wanted to teleport away, but he found that he could not use the law of space at all. Not only that, but he also could not use the law of time or even the law of Yin and Yang. The elder seemed to have dominated this world, just like Ou Yangming in the poisonous pill’s world.

“This is Heaven’s Domain.”

Sect Leader Mystic Sky, who was watching the battle from afar, suddenly widened his eyes. He had never thought that he would see Heaven’s Domain.

One could not escape nor could use the laws.

If it were anyone else, they would probably be waiting to die at this moment. However, Ou Yangming was different. He still had strong physical strength.

The spiritual power in his body circulated crazily again. All the strength in his limbs and bones gathered on his right arm.

Ou Yangming sensed the danger. He had to go all out.

The Reincarnation Spear collided with the palm in the sky. The spear was like a divine dragon, never to return.

“Boom…”

The Reincarnation Spear and the palm in the sky collided.

Ou Yangming felt as if his body had been struck by lightning. His chest felt heavy, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

The elder was too strong!

His palm resisted the Reincarnation Spear without any damage. On the contrary, Ou Yangming’s body was injured by an irresistible force.

The earth was shaking, and the Mystic Sky Sect seemed to have been ravaged by countless huge beasts. Ou Yangming was smashed to the ground.

Fortunately, he had used the Ancient Demons’ blood essences to recover his body in the Earth’s core. Otherwise, he would not have been able to block that move.

He had blocked it, but the price was too great.

Ou Yangming’s body was in a half-paralyzed state, and he could not use even a tenth of his strength.

Seeing that he could not finish off Ou Yangming in one move, the elder was furious. He rubbed his palm a few times and looked at the Reincarnation Spear in the other party’s hand. The elder did not expect that the long spear would be so powerful and that he would also suffer a small loss.

The elder stretched out his hand and prepared to attack again.

“Grandpa, don’t hurt him!” Suddenly, a voice sounded.

Ruler Ying had gradually woken up in the sky. He grabbed his grandpa’s arm.

“Why do you want to help him?” The elder frowned slightly.

Ruler Ying wiped his mouth and looked at the blood on his hand. He laughed out loud. “Grandpa, he’s a qualified opponent.”

The elder knew that his grandson was a battle maniac who was very eager to have a worthy opponent. Nevertheless, he also understood that Ou Yangming’s potential was too terrifying. Once the young fellow grew up, even the elder might not be able to withstand him. At that time, it would be very dangerous. He could not use his future as a bet.

As such, the elder looked at his grandson with a doting gaze and said, “Lil’ Ying, his potential is very strong. He might soon surpass me. If I don’t kill him now, there’ll be endless troubles in the future.”

“Grandpa, do you think that I’m not as good as him?” Ruler Ying looked at Ou Yangming with an unconvinced look.

“Uh…” The elder did not know how to answer.

He loved his grandson very much. He could even put aside big matters and let his grandson do whatever he wanted.

His grandson was a genius. Even in their world, he was also a genius. No one in the same generation was his match. Even many people of the older generation were defeated by him.

He knew how much his grandson wanted to meet a worthy opponent.

Compared to that young fellow, the elder’s grandson was stronger in many aspects. The only difference between them was the comprehension of profound meanings. The opponent had mastered profound meanings. The elder could not accept it at all.

If it was not for the profound meanings, even if Ou Yangming had severely injured Ruler Ying, the elder would not have attacked. He knew that his grandson would not want others to interfere in the battle.

“Grandpa, I know that there’s still a gap between us for now, but I’ll use the shortest time to surpass him.”

Ruler Ying stared at Ou Yangming with a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.

He also knew that he had already lost. If his grandfather had not made a move just now, he would have been seriously injured, and his life might even be in danger.

Ruler Ying had lost. This was the first time he had lost in the Great Wide World. His opponent was a respectable opponent.

“Alright.” The elder nodded and stopped.

He knew his grandson’s character. He was not a person to admit defeat.

The battle today would surely stimulate Ruler Ying’s hard work in cultivation. It might even help him open the door to the final step. As long as he opened the door, his strength could even surpass his grandfather’s. This was a chance.

Destroying Ruler Ming was equivalent to destroying Ruler Ying’s target.

“Let’s go.” The elder scanned the Mystic Sky Sect before he said indifferently.

“Let’s go, Grandpa.” Ruler Ying smiled.

The elder fixed his gaze on Ou Yangming. He extended his hand and slapped, instantly pushing the young fellow’s body away. He did not use much power, nor did he aggravate the fellow’s injuries.

After pushing Ou Yangming away, the elder waved his hand, and the Reincarnation Spear on the ground flew uncontrollably into his hand.

Looking at the Reincarnation Spear in his hand, the elder’s lips curled up with a hint of a smile.

A stream of light flashed, and Ruler Ying and the elder disappeared into the sky.

“Pfft…” Ou Yangming spat out another mouthful of blood. He looked at the sky and laughed bitterly.

It was not a big deal that the Reincarnation Spear was taken away. Fortunately, his life was saved.

He originally thought that after coming out of the Fallen Land, there would not be many people in this world who could threaten him. Only now did he understand that he had overestimated himself. There were still powerhouses in this world that he could not resist. Such powerhouses only needed a few moves to kill him.

‘Is he in the Heavenly Rank?’ Ou Yangming looked at the sky and was not sure.

“Greetings, Ruler Ming.” While Ou Yangming was in a daze, a few Mystic Sky Sect powerhouses in the second step flew over. Their eyes were filled with admiration.

Rumors had no value, but seeing it with one’s own eyes was different.

Their sect leader, Mystic Sky, was a top-tier human powerhouse in the Great Wide World. Even among the powerhouses in the third step, there were not many who could compare to him.

Ruler Ying had defeated their sect leader, while Ou Yangming had defeated Ruler Ying.

From this, one could see the disparity between them. Besides, they could clearly see the battle that followed. When Ruler Ying was fighting with their sect leader, he still had 2 ultimate moves that he had not used yet. The blood-colored lotus flowers that covered the ground, as well as the sudden increase in his physical strength, were like myths to them.

Even so, Ruler Ying still lost. If it was not for the elder behind him, he might have been seriously injured or even died.

“You don’t have to be so polite.”

Ou Yangming glanced at the mountains and rivers that were filled with ravines, as well as the several peaks that had been flattened in the distance. He said somewhat embarrassedly, “I’m really sorry to have turned your sect into this.”

The school masters were surprised. They did not expect the legendary Ruler Ming to be so polite.

Wang Changfeng said with a smile, “Ruler Ming, you’re too polite. These are nothing. We can recover very quickly. In any case, you let us witness a stunning battle. This is a good thing that’ll benefit us for the rest of our lives. We should be the ones to thank you.”

“Yes, we should be the ones to thank you,” the others also said politely.

These people were the leaders or the top elders of the Mystic Sky Sect. That said, they were very humble at this moment.

“How are the injuries of your sect leader?” Ou Yangming seemed to have thought of something and asked.

Qi Xunzi, the great elder of the Alchemy School, said seriously, “Sect Leader was seriously injured, but he has taken the Mystic Sky Sect’s ultimate treasure, the Weakness Transformation Pill, so his injuries have gradually stabilized. Sect Leader just said that he wanted to see you, Ruler Ming. I wonder if it’s convenient for you now.”

The others also looked at Ou Yangming, unsure of his answer.

They had also seen the elder’s attack just now. That fellow was too powerful. He was simply an invincible existence. They did not know how Ou Yangming’s injuries were at this moment.

During this period, Ou Yangming’s spiritual power had already circulated twice in his body. He smiled and said, “I’m okay with it. Why would it be inconvenient? I also have something to say to Sect Leader Mystic Sky.”

“That’s great.” A few of the Mystic Sky Sect’s powerhouses were delighted.

A person led the way in front while the others followed behind. In the blink of an eye, they flew onto the main peak of the Mystic Sky Sect.

Unlike the outside world, the main peak of the Mystic Sky Sect did not seem to have been damaged. Ou Yangming could feel the surging power of formations around him. He understood the reason. There must be countless formations here to stabilize the peak, which was why it was able to maintain its original state during the battle just now.

In the main hall, almost all the powerhouses of the Mystic Sky Sect had gathered.

With a casual glance, there were more than 200 people.

These people were at least at the peak of the law boundary. There were also some powerhouses in the second step. Including the few beside Ou Yangming, there were a total of 9 powerhouses in the second step.

There were 9 powerhouses in the second step and more than 200 at the peak of the law boundary like the Horned Dragon King. Given such a powerful lineup, the Mystic Sky Sect was worthy of being a top-tier sect.

“Greetings, Ruler Ming.”

Ou Yangming had just stepped into the main hall when unified voices sounded from all around him as if the people had gone through hundreds of rehearsals.
