Immortal Path to Heaven
chapter-1292-30041322

The Snake Demon’s body was very long—500 to 600 meters long.

His eyes were like lanterns as he looked down at Ou Yangming and the others from above. There was a dignified aura around him.

“It’s him.”

Seeing this Snake Demon that suddenly appeared, He Mu panicked.

A few days ago, this guy had severely injured him with one move. Then, like a cat catching a mouse, he had his subordinates chase after him in the Big Python Mountain.

10,000 Beasts had seen this guy before. He looked at Ou Yangming and said in a low voice, “Be careful. He’s a Great Demon who came out of the Abyss of Despair. He’s very powerful and has reached the second step of the law boundary. My master was injured by him.”

The Snake Demon’s gaze was cold as it swept over He Mu and 10,000 Beasts. Its gaze was somewhat stern.

“I didn’t think that you’re still alive.”

His gaze shifted to Ou Yangming again. When he saw the jade bottle in the young fellow’s hand and clearly recognized what was inside, he became furious.

“B*stard, you’re collecting Ancient Demons’ blood essences!”

The Snake Demon suddenly became violent. His eyes were bloodshot. If gaze could kill, Ou Yangming would be riddled with holes by now.

Stealing the Ancient Demons’ blood essences was taboo for the Ancient Demons.

It was the same as when humans saw someone collecting human blood. Even if the dead person had nothing to do with one, one would be furious.

“So what?”

Ou Yangming shook the bottle lightly, not taking the other party seriously at all.

To him, the other party was just here to court his death. A second-step Ancient Python Demon must have a lot of blood essence.

“General, it was this human who killed Captain Wolf just now.”

“General, he’s too arrogant. Kill him.”

“Kill him, kill him!”

The roars came one after another throughout the forest. He Mu and the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One were as calm as still water.

Only by the side of this young fellow did they feel at ease.

“You’re courting death!”

Hearing the cries around him, the anger in the Snake Demon’s eyes grew. This human was simply too daring. It was one thing for him to come to the Big Python Mountain to save his companions, but he actually dared to take the Ancient Demons’ blood essences.

After he shouted coldly, he opened his mouth, and a stream of flame shot out.

The flame was black and as soon as it appeared, it made people feel suffocated.

“This is the Hellish Black Fire, the general’s ultimate move!”

When the Ancient Demons in the mountains saw the flames, their eyes were filled with excitement.

They wanted to see how those arrogant fellows would be burned to pieces by the general’s flames.

“Be careful.”

He Mu looked at Ou Yangming, who was still motionless and reminded him.

They were both powerhouses in the second step of the law. Although the side that controlled the law of time had a great advantage, they could not be careless. Furthermore, this Snake Demon was also powerful. If one was touched by the flames, one would turn into ashes.

“Master, don’t worry. Ou Yangming has his plans.”

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable knew that Ou Yangming was not a reckless person. He definitely had his ideas.

While the flames were also flying toward him, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable was not worried. He knew that Ou Yangming had a way to deal with it.

As expected, after a moment, Ou Yangming chuckled, his eyes filled with disdain. “Is this your trick?”

“Ignorant child, I’ll let you know how powerful my flames are.” The Snake Demon was very confident.

In the Great Wide World, other than the miraculous Heavenly Phoenix Fire and the Vermilion Bird Flames, there were not many other flames that could compare to his Hellish Black Fire.

After the Snake Demon finished accumulating, the flames increased their speed and whistled toward Ou Yangming.

“Is that so? Then I’ll give it a try.”

Ou Yangming flicked his finger, and a purple fire appeared on his fingertip. This flame was very small, but it seemed to have a tenacious vitality.

“Go, go experience those powerful flames.”

Ou Yangming chuckled and with a wave of his hand, the purple flame flew toward the sky full of flames.

He Mu was stunned, and so was the 10,000 Beasts Venerable.

They had thought that Ou Yangming would have a way to deal with the flames, but they had never thought that he would use such a method.

‘Will that thing really work?’

Looking at the thumb-sized ball of purple flame that had flown out, an absurd feeling arose in their hearts.

On one side was a monstrous flame, and on the other side was a weak ball of a candle flame.

Was there any comparison between the two?

If they had thought so, it was easy to imagine what the Ancient Demons in the mountains were thinking. The Ancient Demons in the mountains and the spirit beasts that had defected to the Ancient Demons’ camp began to laugh wantonly.

‘Is he relying on that tiny thing to resist the general’s flames? Is this a joke?’

The flames met…

Soon, everyone’s smile froze on their faces.

They stared at the sky with their mouths agape. ‘What’s happening? How could such a situation happen!!’

When the Hellish Black Fire met the weak purple flame, it was like a mouse seeing a wild cat. It hurriedly dodged, not daring to touch it in the slightest.

High-level flames also had spirits. They did not have intelligence, but they also had a level of pressure.

The Snake Demon was in the second step of the boundary. The power of his flames was extraordinary but compared to the Heavenly Phoenix Fire, it was still a level lower.

What was the purple flame?

It was the highest level of the Heavenly Phoenix Fires.

There was no need to guess the result. Under everyone’s shocked gazes, the black flame hurriedly dispersed as if it had encountered a terrifying monster. The purple flames did not pay any attention to the Hellish Black Fire. Instead, it suddenly moved and appeared beside the Snake Demon as if it had teleported. The purple flame ignited the Snake Demon’s body.

Before the Snake Demon could react, the purple flame had ignited on its body.

The purple flame did not seem to be much, but it was very mighty.

A heart-wrenching sound rang out. The Snake Demon cried out in pain. Its body kept rolling in the air in an attempt to extinguish the flames on its body. Despite that, it was all in vain.

‘What kind of fire is that?!’ He Mu’s eyes revealed a look of fear.

That small fire had caused the Snake Demon in the second step realm to be in so much pain.

In his state, the Snake Demon had almost no chance of resisting. With a wave of his hand, Ou Yangming had subdued a supreme powerhouse of the second step without even using that heaven-defying law of time.

“Who’s this friend of 10,000 Beasts?’ He Mu’s heart was trembling.

He had lived all his life, but he had never seen such a mysterious person.

10,000 Beasts looked at Ou Yangming’s back with a shocked expression.

He knew that Ou Yangming definitely had a way to deal with the Snake Demon’s flames, but he did not expect that he would be able to deal with the Snake Demon so easily. This was too exaggerated. That was a supreme powerhouse of the second step, after all.

“What exactly is Ou Yangming’s boundary?’

10,000 Beasts realized that he had underestimated Ou Yangming. This young fellow’s strength was unfathomable. It was not something he could imagine.

Ou Yangming stood in the air and smiled at the Snake Demon in the distance. “How do you feel?”

“Sir, I was wrong. Please let me go, sir!” The Snake Demon pleaded.

At this moment, the Snake Demon finally understood what it meant to be insignificant.

He thought that his flames were very powerful but now that he was tormented by the purple fire, he realized that there was always someone better out there. He had never seen this strange flame before, but it was so horrifying that it made people tremble.

“It would be a pity if I let you go.”

Ou Yangming approached the Snake Demon. He shook the small bottle in his hand. The bottle contained the blood essence of the Wolf Demon, and there was still more than half of it left.

The Snake Demon saw this and suddenly understood something.

‘Does he want to take his blood essence too?’

“No!”

The Snake Demon screamed and ran into the distance. Even so, his body was burned by the purple fire. He did not have much strength left, and his speed was greatly reduced.

This kind of escape was nothing but a joke in Ou Yangming’s eyes.

He took a step forward, and his body instantly disappeared. In the next second, he appeared beside the Snake Demon.

With a gentle push of his long spear, it directly entered the Snake Demon’s heart.

No matter how strong the Snake Demon’s shell was, it was as weak as tofu under the long spear of a Middle Grade Taoist Tool.

Without a heart, even an Ancient Demon would die without a doubt.

Blood essence gushed out from the Snake Demon’s wound. The Snake Demon cried out in pain, but his voice had gradually become weak.

“The Demon Kings won’t let you go!”

This was the last sentence of the Snake Demon. After saying this, his aura had completely disappeared. He had miscalculated Ou Yangming’s strength, and the price was his life.

“I won’t let them go either,” Ou Yangming said indifferently.

Soon, he collected the blood essence from the Snake Demon.

It was huge, and he had a lot of blood essence that weighed hundreds of kilograms in total. In terms of quality and quantity, this was much better than the Wolf Demon from before.

There were pros and cons of the Ancient Demons’ blood essences, and the effects were different. The blood essence of the second step was a treasure that could not be bought in top-tier chambers of commerce.

After taking away the blood essence of the Snake Demon, Ou Yangming turned around and left.

When he turned around, the purple fire on the Snake Demon’s body instantly became violent, completely surrounding his body.

A burnt smell came from the air, and the huge body of the Snake Demon began to fall. Before he even landed on the ground, he had been burned into ashes by the purple fire.

The Ancient Demons and spirit beasts on the mountain were all scared stiff.

They only reacted when the Snake Demon’s body disappeared.

“Run!”

Following a scream, all the Ancient Demons and spirit beasts started to run.

The invincible general was dead. None of them dared to provoke that fiend in the sky.

Ou Yangming looked down, his eyes carrying a hint of coldness.

The people on the Big Python Mountain deserved to die. The Ancient Demons were the enemies of the Humans, so it was not a pity for them to die. The spirit beasts that had submitted to them were even more detestable.

“Interspatial Blades,” Ou Yangming shouted coldly.

A bunch of white blades suddenly appeared in the air. They were densely packed like locusts.

He pointed his finger downward and instantly, countless blades rained down like a storm.

Miserable screams sounded on the Big Python Mountain. In just a moment, the world quieted down, and the Ancient Demons’ blood essences flew from the ground to the sky.

The jade bottle in Ou Yangming’s hand was filled.
