Immortal Path to Heaven
chapter-1075

“Cough, cough!” Hurried coughs were heard coming from the yellow sand.

After a while, Long Ting looked extremely weak and walked out of the yellow sand with the whimpering cold winds.

His face turned cold, and he said in a muffled voice, “Damn it! If I don’t take revenge, I’d be a useless dragon.” He had never suffered such a serious injury. His internal organs were displaced, and his meridians and blood vessels were full of cuts. If he had not been decisive, he would have died at the hands of Feng Yi and Feng Ai this time.

As he looked around, he had found a secret and safe place. In a flash, he arrived at a stone cave. He stood still, took a deep breath, sat cross-legged, and began to heal his injuries.

In just an hour, wisps of black gas spread out from his body. He spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his face became ruddy again.

Although that was the case, at this level, as long as one was injured, it was not something that could be healed in a day. This was because every attack by a Ruler would more or less carry a trace of the power of laws. If one was injured by such attacks, one’s great path would be injured.

It would be fine if one understood the laws but if one did not, one could only endure it.

Therefore, Long Ting only suppressed the injuries on their bodies temporarily. If he wanted to fully recover, he would have to recuperate for at least a few years.

Of course, this little time was only a few times of meditation for a powerhouse at his level, so Long Ting did not take it to heart.

For a moment, he felt a bit bitter. ‘That Venerable One can’t be measured by common sense.’

He took 2 steps forward and said with a chuckle, “Since the matter has been resolved, it’s time for me to return to the Dragons’ ancestral land.” The process had been a bit tortuous but as long as the outcome did not change, it did not matter.

He took a deep breath of turbid air and with a flash, he arrived at an open area.

Long Ting casually glanced at his interspatial bag, and he gnashed his teeth as he said, “My possessions that were worth several thousand years of effort were destroyed just like that.” As he spoke, the despicable faces of Feng Yi and Feng Ai appeared in front of him again.

The possessions that he had accumulated for several thousand years turned into ashes in an instant. Nobody could have endured it.

Long Ting gently tapped his interspatial bag with his wrist, and a silver-white flying boat grew with the wind. With a booming sound, it landed on the ground. The flying boat was at least 333 meters long. Unlike the Phoenixes’ flying boat, this was like a swordfish. It was flat and long, with an extra touch of dominance and a hint of nobility. On the mast on the deck, there was a piece of brocade hanging on it. Using extremely skilled techniques, it had a red “Dragon” word on its sleeve.

The entire brocade had been soaked in the blood essence of the Dragons, and it looked very murderous.

Long Ting’s body moved slightly but at that time, the flying boat disappeared into thin air. Even the spiritual connection between him and the flying boat was forcefully cut off.

Like an erupting volcano, his eyes were red as he slapped his palm toward the east.

“Boom!” A 3-kilometers-tall mountain peak was smashed into pieces, and rocks flew everywhere.

This was where Ou Yangming was hiding.

Ou Yangming took a step forward and dodged the attack. He spread out his hands and said with a genial expression, “Senior, we meet again in life.”

Long Ting was obviously stunned for a moment, and his breathing was a bit chaotic. He said in a high-pitched voice, “It’s you? How… How’s this possible?” He had seen the scene of the self-explosion with his own eyes. Even if he had encountered that kind of power, he would have likely fallen. Now, the human Venerable One actually survived and was unharmed. Was this not too dreamy? This was simply beyond the limits of Long Ting’s imagination. He had even forgotten that his flying boat was snatched away by the young fellow.

This was also because Long Ting had been careless. Otherwise, even if Ou Yangming had the spiritual world unique to the Phoenixes, it would be difficult for him to snatch the flying boat from the dragon powerhouse.

Seeing Long Ting’s expression, Ou Yangming understood what he was referring to.

He smiled and answered, “Senior, you flatter me.” As he spoke, he even winked.

Then, he waved his hand and cleared his throat. “Well, I’ll be leaving first. Let’s meet again if fate allows.”

“You’re courting death!” Long Ting finally remembered that his flying boat had been snatched away by this young fellow. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he pounced forward. Nonetheless, he was very careful. It was obvious that he regarded Ou Yangming as an equal-ranked powerhouse. After all, Long Xiao had been forced to self-explode his dantian.

With such a precedent, even a fool would not act rashly.

Ou Yangming did not want to be tangled with Long Ting. He only wanted the flying boat.

He had a faint premonition that this dragon powerhouse would be very difficult to deal with. Of course, the most important thing was that Long Ting had only suffered some minor injuries. Even if the young fellow could win, it would be a pyrrhic victory. If he lured the 2 brothers, Feng Yi and Feng Ai, over again, his gains would not make up for his losses.

Therefore, Ou Yangming circulated his spiritual power and pushed his palm toward the void, using the recoil force to fly into the distance.

Nevertheless, Long Ting was not the slightest bit slow. In fact, he was even faster.

After all, Ou Yangming was only a top-grade Venerable One. Even if he had comprehended the power of laws, there were still huge gaps in some aspects that could not be made up for.

He gritted his teeth and lightly tapped the Blood Flight Waist Sash, then he turned into a streak of light and once again pulled the distance between him and Long Ting apart.

Ou Yangming knew he was snatching food from a tiger’s mouth, but he had to do it because the heart of origin was in turmoil, and no one knew how long he could last. He was not a Ruler yet, so he did not have the ability to transcend the void. If he did not snatch the flying boat, he would be trapped in this place forever. The 2 brothers, Feng Yi and Feng Ai, worked well together and they were inseparable. The young fellow did not dare to provoke them, so he naturally turned his attention to Long Ting.

He did not expect Long Ting to plan to return to the Dragons’ ancestral land so soon, which was a pleasant surprise.

“Whoosh, whoosh…” Piercing sounds were heard. Before the critical moment, Ou Yangming had used the Blood Flight to get far away. Long Ting did not have any good ideas at the moment.

Especially when Long Ting thought about how the human Venerable One snatched his flying boat in front of him, he felt a burning pain on his face.

He was probably the most aggrieved Ruler in the history of the Great Wide World.

This was equivalent to an Intermediate Spiritualist forcefully snatching a Venerable One’s favorite thing and not bringing it back. Anyone could imagine how aggrieved the Venerable One would be.

In the sky, a cold light surged in front of Long Ting, and numerous ice spikes slid out of his sleeves. The spikes were only 3 inches long, and there was a wisp of cold mist lingering on them. The moment the spikes appeared, the temperature around him dropped as if it became winter, and white snowflakes drifted out of thin air.

He said coldly, “It has always been me snatching other people’s things, and I’ve never met a guy as bold as you. Today, even if I have to chase you to the ends of the earth, I’ll kill you!” As he spoke, he rolled his long sleeves forward, and the ice spikes tore through space, drawing perfect arcs as they headed straight for Ou Yangming’s chest.

Wherever they passed, space was frozen like ice that was constantly changing.

At this time, if someone looked up at the sky from the ground, they would surely see a fearsome scene.

Many silver lights tore through the sky and after they passed, icicles appeared and quickly spread toward the horizon.

They were held up by a mysterious force and were placed horizontally above the sky.

It would be fine if that was all but next to the icicles, snowflakes that looked like goose feathers were drifting, and the world fell into a vast expanse.

Ou Yangming did not answer, but his face looked solemn. He was certain by judging from this attack that Long Ting was more than just a little stronger than Long Xiao. It was a qualitative difference.

Indeed, that was the truth. Otherwise, Long Ting would not have been able to escape from Feng Yi and Feng Ai.

Ou Yangming guarded his spiritual altar with his heart. With a flash of thought, he entered the states of the thoroughly meticulous and the connection between Heaven and man. He did not dare to be careless when facing such a powerhouse, thus he could only use all his strength. Of course, he would not use his life-saving methods. The main reason was that he was afraid of drawing the 2 brothers of the Phoenixes over. If not, he would not mind killing another Ruler.

Now, he could borrow the power of the poisonous pill’s world, comprehended the laws of Yin and Yang, and fathomed Heaven’s Burial. Even a Ruler would not be able to defeat these methods.

As Ou Yangming retreated quickly, he raised his right hand and secretly circulated Taotie’s Devouring Power to the extreme.

His palm slowly turned black and seemed to have turned into a dark and deep vortex. He grabbed at the ice spikes coming at him.

A strange scene appeared. The cold ice spikes were wrapped by a strong suction force and rushed toward the black vortex in Ou Yangming’s right palm. The moment they came into contact with the black vortex, the power seemed to be disintegrated. It was silent, invisible, and formless. It made one’s heart tremble.

“Hmph, let’s see how much you can absorb!” Long Ting sneered.

The spiritual Qi in his Dantian Lake was circulated to the extreme, and the ice spikes in the sky became even faster.

1, 2, 3…

The energies in the ice spike were absorbed by Ou Yangming using Taotie’s Devouring Power, then they were fed back to the poisonous pill’s world.

Every attack of a Ruler carried boundless energy, which was not something a Venerable One could compare to. In a way, the energy contained in this attack was countless times more than the energy contained in a Venerable One’s Dantian Lake.

Ou Yangming was borrowing this power to perfect the poisonous pill’s world at this time. After being absorbed by Taotie’s Devouring Power, the power was incredibly pure.

“Woosh…” Another ice spike was absorbed by Ou Yangming. His face turned slightly pale, and his body staggered.

Despite that, he was overjoyed in his heart. To him, the attacks were pure energies.

Of course, this was also because Ou Yangming was fleeing quickly. Long Ting did not have time to accumulate power and attack with all his strength. Otherwise, the young fellow would not have dared to do this.

As for his pale face and staggering body, he was obviously faking it. He did it so that Long Ting would continue to attack like this, allowing him to better perfect the poisonous pill’s world.

As expected, when Long Ting saw this, it was as if he was injected with stimulants.

His attacks became more ruthless while Ou Yangming weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
