Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 989: The Totem Warns

Ou Yangming and He Jian were rushing. The yellow sand that filled the sky disappeared and was replaced by a light grey sky.

After 3 days, the area in front of them suddenly became wide open and was covered with emerald green trees.

The stream was clear and was beating on the mountain rocks. There were also many spiritual fishes playing in the water.

“How far to go?” Ou Yangming’s voice was very soft, and his face was covered in dust.

“Well, it’s not far. We’ll only need half a day at most to get there.” He Jian bent down and picked a cucumber from the cucumber vine. He wiped it with his hand and sat on a piece of bluestone. Then, he started to chew on it.

Ou Yangming did not even lift his eyelids. Obviously, he had seen this scene several times.

In He Jian’s words, eating cucumbers was like life. One had to eat the bitter parts first, then the sweetness would come later.

With a chuckle, Ou Yangming patted his butt and sat next to He Jian. He relaxed his body and asked softly, “Senior He, why were there 6 swords in the sword case before?” As he asked that, he raised his hand and pointed at the sword case.

He Jian’s expression was calm, and there was no trace of resentment in his heart. He answered, “Swords can scare people!”

“What...” Ou Yangming was stunned. He had thought of many answers, but he never thought of this.

He Jian glanced at Ou Yangming through the corner of his eyes. Seeing his lifeless face, he felt an inexplicable pleasure in his heart. He cursed internally, ‘This journey has shocked me so many times, and my body’s about to be torn apart by you... I’ve finally seen you suffer a setback.’

After a full breath, Ou Yangming finally regained his senses. He touched the tip of his nose and said with a bitter smile, “Senior He, you must be joking!”

They did not say anything after that. For a moment, they fell silent.

After a short moment of rest, they turned into light streams again and sped away.

As said by He Jian, after only half a day, they saw the huge Black Dragon statue. A strong pressure came from it. It did not matter how high or low one’s cultivation base was, as long as one saw it, one would fall. It was also because of this statue that the Black Dragon Clan cultivated at least 10% faster than ordinary people with the bloodlines of the Dragons and the Phoenixes. One must not underestimate the 10% because with that, it had been easier for the Jiang family members to break through, and they gained more top-grade combat powers.

In a way, the status of the Black Dragon Clan, which was Jiang family, in the Big Ruins had a lot to do with this huge statue.

At this moment, a muffled sound came from the statue’s body.

It sounded like muffled thunder, and the world fell silent.

A black light suddenly lit up from the statue. At first, the light was scattered like fireflies. In just an instant, the black light became intense and soared into the sky to cover an area of 50 kilometers. It would have been fine if that was all but immediately after, the shadow of a Black Dragon condensed, and it let out a dragon’s roar. A majestic airwave reverberated and swept out in all directions. Wherever the sound wave passed by, fear appeared in the eyes of all the spirit beasts. It was as if their bodies were being pressed down by an enormous mountain. At the same time, they bent down and lay prone on the ground, wailing incessantly.

In an instant, the Jiang Residence trembled. Waves of ear-piercing sounds reverberated.

Jiang Qingcheng sat on the bed and swayed her feet. All of a sudden, a dragon’s roar was heard. She only felt her blood boil, and a nameless fire was burning inside her body as if it was going to ignite her blood. The spiritual energy in her dantian began to circulate uncontrollably.

“Mother, I’m feeling hot!” Jiang Qingcheng’s voice was very soft. A touch of pinkness appeared on her fair face, making her look even more adorable.

“The heart guards the spiritual altar, and the mind becomes one. Forget about material things first then forget about yourself. Step into the realm of no matter and no self.” Jiang Yingrong gently tapped the space between her eyebrows with her finger. She was dressed in a light blue dress, and her figure was slender, making her look flirtatious. She was like a gorgeous rose.

The haggard look on her face made her look gentler and more beautiful. Her charm did not reduce but increased instead, giving her a womanly aura. During this period, she had thought of many ways, but Lil’ Man was still not getting better. She could not even hold on to the breath in her chest. This made her very worried.

Jiang Qingcheng sat cross-legged and put her palms together. Her mind was free of distracting thoughts, and she slowly entered into meditation.

Jiang Yingrong’s willow-like eyebrows furrowed slightly again. She suppressed her surging Qi and blood and looked outside, then she thought to herself, ‘What’s going on? Why is my Bloodline Power out of control? Is it related to the dragon’s roar from before?’

Without any hesitation, her figure flashed and rushed toward the square like a fiery red rose.

Just as she stepped out of the small courtyard, a fearsome pressure descended from the sky and pressed down on her shoulder. Jiang Yingrong lifted her chin slightly and looked toward the sky. She just happened to see a scene that she would never forget for the rest of her life. She saw the shadow of a Black Dragon that was tens of meters long in the sky. Its eyes were filled with fanaticism as it bowed at Ou Yangming as if it was welcoming its king.

At this moment, the Jiang residence shook with a loud bang.

2 green pillars of light crossed over from the secret room.

These 2 lights carried monstrous auras. The blood and Qi on their bodies were weak, but their auras were powerful. They caused the wind and clouds in the sky to turn upside down. Muffled sounds of thunder rumbled. The hearts of all the Jiang family’s disciples shivered as they subconsciously looked toward the light streams. Even the inner pavilion elders did the same.

Almost as soon as these disciples looked over, 2 majestic mental powers swept out from the floating white clouds in the sky.

Those who were swept by the mental powers quivered.

They were the absolute pressures of formidable figures, and they seemed to be able to dry up a person’s body and destroy one’s soul. With just a thought or a glance, one’s body and soul would be destroyed. Furthermore, they would not be able to fight back, even if they were Advanced Spiritualists.

This was because they were the Jiang family’s Venerable One. Only Venerable Ones could fight against Venerable Ones. Even for He Jian, who dominated his generation, like He Jian, he could only block three moves from a Venerable One before he was defeated.

The great ancestors who had suddenly arrived were the strongest fighting forces of the Jiang family. The first powerful Venerable One was Jiang Yuchen, who was born ordinary. He only had 2 threads of the Black Dragon Bloodline but through hard work, he became a Venerable One. The other was Jiang Xiaoxu, who was a top-grade Venerable One. When he was young, he had defeated many enemies with his fists. His fame was built on victories and honor.

“The... The Venerable Ones of our clan are here. What... What happened?” An old man in luxurious clothes said in shock.

“Yeah. These 2 Venerable Ones haven’t appeared in the same place for decades. It seems that something big must’ve happened,” another old man said.

Many elders were whispering and discussing in low voices.

“Hmph, noisy!” A cold voice was heard. As it echoed, the elders felt that they had just heard thunderbolts. The square was dead silent. The person who spoke wore a flat crown with tassels that hung down. His expression was dignified, and his gestures were extraordinary. It was obvious that he had been in a high position for a long time. Moreover, many elders surrounded him like stars surrounding the moon. It was as if he was the core of the Jiang family.

This person was the Jiang family’s patriarch, Jiang Liuche. His cultivation base was smooth, and he was a top-grade Spiritualist. He was just one step away from breaking through to become a Venerable One.

Before he finished, he lowered his head slightly and took the initiative to take a step forward.

He bowed and said, “Welcome, great ancestors...” As his voice spread out, it set off rumbling waves.

The 2 Venerable Ones of the Jiang family exchanged a look. They both saw the satisfaction in each other’s eyes.

Jiang Yuchen said through telepathy, ‘Liuche’s becoming more meticulous.’

‘Yeah! As long as he can become a Venerable One, the Jiang family will have a successor,’ Jiang Xiaoxu replied to him.

With that, they did not hesitate and descended from the heavenly palace. THey stood in front of Jiang Liuche with their hands behind their backs.

Jiang Yuchen raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in a low voice, “Liuche, what’s going on?”

Jiang Liuche’s face was as calm as water. He cupped his hands and answered, “Great Ancestor, I don’t know the exact reason yet. I’ve sent the inner pavilion elders out to investigate as soon as it happened. I’ll report to you as soon as we have any news.”

“Okay!” Jiang Yuchen nodded. At that moment, the figure of the Black Dragon in the sky suddenly exhaled and made a strange sound. It sounded like a pilgrimage or a sacrifice. It floated down from the sky and blended with the whistling wind. It was hard to tell.

After the Black Dragon hissed, the black light on its body grew stronger, and it crashed into the sky. The sky changed color, and the wind and clouds turned upside down.

The Black Dragon’s figure was miserable. It struggled then dashed toward the sky at an unimaginable speed as if it was going to blow a hole in the sky.

However, when it reached a certain height, it felt like it had hit an insurmountable barrier. No matter how hard the Black Dragon struggled, it could not move an inch forward. It glanced in Ou Yangming’s direction, and its eyes were filled with determination. Every inch of its skin was burning again. It moved forward again, but its body was collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye. It let out a shrill scream again.

“Boom...” A loud sound was heard, and the dragon disappeared in an instant.

Jiang Yuchen and Jiang Xiaoxu exchanged a look. They saw the fear in each other’s eyes.

They turned into beams of light and shot into the sky!

In the sky, Jiang Yuchen took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “Why did that scene look so similar to the scene of the Xu family’s Fire Phoenix shaking the sky in the land of cold fog in the extreme north of the Big Ruins?”

Jiang Xiaoxu pondered for a while and nodded slightly. “The totem has been warning us over the past few days. I’m afraid that a change will happen in the Big Ruins. The grudges between our 6 clans should be put aside for the time being.” He paused before he added, “Contact those old farts. Let’s talk at the table. There are hundreds of millions of lives in the Big Ruins. We can’t destroy them.”

The other Venerable One was silent for a while, then he said with a bitter smile, “Even if we’re willing to do so, are they? We’ve been in a stalemate for 10,000 years. Which clan hasn’t been losing people? Lives have been lost!”

“Some time ago, Big Brother Jiang Caijin sent me a message. The foreign races were wreaking havoc in the known areas. Several villages were destroyed. Some people died, some were injured, and many families were destroyed.” Jiang Xiaoxu shook his head and sighed.

Jiang Yuchen’s face turned cold when he heard this. He said in a low voice, “It’s the alien tribes foreign races again!”

“Yes. They’ve been growing stronger over the past century. If the 6 clans don’t unite, the Big Ruins will be in danger.” Jiang Xiaoxu was worried about the country and its people.

Jiang Yuchen sighed and did not say anything.

Their figures eventually blurred and disappeared into the sky.
