Aspiring to the Immortal Path

The Red Dust Soil in Tang Jie's hand felt as heavy as a mountain and was as red as blood. It exuded an eerie feeling, and he really couldn't understand why sprites would like to eat such a thing.

After some thought, he called Yiyi out. Of course, if Yiyi went out, Ice Phoenix couldn't stay in the diagram either.

Tang Jie passed the Red Dust Soil to Yiyi, who examined it and asked, "Big Brother, what is this for?"

"For eating," Tang Jie replied.

Yiyi looked at Tang Jie like he was a ghost. "Big Brother, have you gone crazy? This is dirt! You want me to eat dirt?"

Tang Jie said in surprise, "You don't like it?"

"Duh!" Yiyi placed her hands on her waist. "Why would I like something like this?"

"That doesn't make sense." Tang Jie was somewhat perplexed.

Huang Wuji had said that sprites loved this stuff, so why did Yiyi feel nothing?

At this moment, Yiyi suddenly felt something, and her face turned strange. "Eh? Tang Dou, what's wrong?"

She took out a small bean, which jumped from her hand and turned into a little person.

After Tang Jie had given Tang Dou to Yiyi, he had become her cherished treasure, and she kept him with her every day like a child with a toy. Tang Dou wasn't kept in a Mustard Seed Bag for fear that he might suffocate.

Tang Dou spent most of the time in his bean form, sleeping in Yiyi's pocket, so it was very surprising for him to come out on his own.

When he saw the Red Dust Soil, he let out a cry of joy and jumped into it, beginning to eat the soil.

Tang Jie, Xu Miaoran and Yiyi were all startled, and a thought occurred to them.

Were the sprites Huang Wuji had been talking about these beans?

When these beans took on human form, they could easily be mistaken for sprites, but Tang Jie knew that their forms weren't manifested from spiritual energy, but were a kind of form they could naturally assume.

If that was the case, had Huang Wuji been to the home of these beans?

Tang Jie was delighted and wanted to ask Huang Wuji, but alas, the man was long-gone and had left no means to communicate with him. He could only hope that they ran into each other again. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Tang Dou happily nibbled away, and in a few moments, his belly was so round that he couldn't stand. He swayed like a drunkard and plopped down onto the ground.

Everyone couldn't help but chuckle at how adorable he was.

Tang Dou didn't seem to understand, but when he saw everyone laughing, he laughed along with them. As he was laughing, he suddenly took in a big breath, upon which his swollen belly flattened once more. The Red Dust Soil had seemingly vanished, but Tang Jie could immediately tell that Tang Dou's body had grown slightly bigger.

Tang Dou hadn't grown at all since his birth.

That he was starting to grow now pleasantly surprised Tang Jie. "So it turns out you can grow."

When he looked at Tang Dou again, he saw he was giving off a faint glow, and he was growing stronger and stronger.

Tang Jie was startled.

While the bean soldiers were strong, as Tang Jie himself grew stronger, they gradually couldn't keep up. This was primarily because they basically had no way to improve. Tang Jie had once thought of ways to increase the power of the bean soldiers, but the results had been minuscule.

But now, Tang Dou was giving Tang Jie some hope.

Perhaps it wasn't that the bean soldiers couldn't improve, but that Tang Jie had never found what they needed?

And the Red Dust Soil was what they needed to grow stronger?

Xu Miaoran and Yiyi had clearly thought the same thing, but just when they were about to speak, there was a cry.

Tang Dou transformed into a streak of light and ran behind a nearby fake mountain.

Confused, everyone followed him to see what he was doing, upon which they saw the little guy squatting down to take a shit.

He had eaten too much and needed to excrete what needed to be excreted.

Yiyi turned red in the face. "Shameless! Shameless!"

She ran off.

Tang Dou thought, You were the ones who ran over to take a look! Alas, he still couldn't speak, so he could only scoot backward, but as he did, he seemed to hit something, and with a boom, the entire Jewel Palace began to rumble.

The shuddering startled Yiyi and Xu Miaoran, and they shouted, "What happened?"

Tang Jie's eyes gleamed, and he appeared behind Tang Dou and picked him up with his fingers.

Poor Tang Dou was still doing his business, so he urgently cried out as Tang Jie held him up in the air. He momentarily lost control, and black and red chunks began to fall, causing two of the women present to blush. As for Ice Phoenix, she was unconcerned, curiously looking at Tang Dou.

Meanwhile, Tang Jie was examining the ground, where he found a sharp protrusion.

Tang Dou must have stepped on this protrusion, which had triggered the shaking.

But he was too small and weak, so he had only triggered the shaking and nothing else.

"This is…" Xu Miaoran came over.

"If my guess is right, it should be the secret area of the Jewel Palace," Tang Jie excitedly said. "The will of the heavens! This is the will of the heavens! After we searched all over the place, Tang Dou ended up finding it with a single step!"

"Is that so?" Xu Miaoran also grew excited. "Then hurry and open it up."

Just as she was about to press the protrusion, Tang Jie stopped her. "Wait; look at that."

Tang Jie pointed at the little protrusion's surroundings. Tendrils of black energy had begun to emerge from the ground.

Xu Miaoran's heart shivered. She knew that this switch was protected by some sort of trap. By triggering the secret area, Tang Dou had also activated the traps. Fortunately, Tang Jie had reacted quickly and picked Tang Dou up.

Tang Dou had also stopped struggling, simply dangling in the air with his butt exposed to the winds.

Xu Miaoran chortled. "You should put him down."

Tang Jie did so.

Tang Dou wiped his butt and ran over to Yiyi, who immediately tried to avoid him, saying that he was still filthy. Tang Dou was left rather baffled, upon which Ice Phoenix clapped her hands and said, "Come over to Big Sister."

Tang Dou was going to go over when Yiyi stomped her feet and said, "You're not allowed to!"

Tang Dou was once again at a crossroads, hesitantly looking back and forth.

As they argued, Tang Jie examined the protrusion. He fired off several bolts of energy from his finger, trying to see how strong the trap was, what kind of trap it was, and how to deal with it.

The more he observed, the more Tang Jie felt that, although there was just one trap, it was a many-layered trap with many secrets. He even started to analyze the trap with Wisdom and Insight, and after a round of frenzied calculation, he finally understood the nature of the trap.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he said, "That was close. I didn't think that something so dangerous would be hidden right at the entrance. It's a good thing that Tang Dou found this place. If you or I found it, we might have given up our lives here."

Xu Miaoran was just about to ask something when a red cloud appeared in the distance.

This red cloud engulfed the horizon, setting the skies ablaze.

Tang Jie looked up and immediately paled. "Oh no!"

A voice boomed, "Tang Jie, you brat, it really is you! It's time to die!"

With a furious roar, a giant hand of flame emerged from the clouds, slapping down at Tang Jie, and the face of the Flame Celestial Sovereign appeared in the clouds.

Knowing immediately that he was in trouble, Tang Jie howled and threw out a punch.

The eleventh strike of the Combat Emperor Catalog, the Illusion Crushing Strike!

Countless illusory fists appeared in the sky, and as they shifted into reality, they exuded an aura that could make the skies collapse, facing down that giant hand of flame with a righteous and majestic energy.

The skies erupted with light as fists met hand. The flames shattered and the clouds were forced back. Not only had the Flame Celestial Sovereign's attack failed, but his enemy's counterattack had succeeded in reaching him.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign gasped in surprise.

Although his hand had been a long-distance attack and not carried his full strength, he was still an Earth Immortal. For Tang Jie to stop his attack with one punch left him flabbergasted.

Tang Jie was equally shocked.

The Combat Emperor Catalog represented the strongest attacks left behind by the Martial Lord. Through the Combat Emperor Catalog, he had been able to fight as a Deification expert against a Soul Projection expert, forcing the Jewel Immortal Sovereign to use everything she had at her disposal to deal with those strikes, and she had still been injured. But now, when there was only one tier separating him and the Flame Celestial Sovereign, the Flame Celestial Sovereign had been completely uninjured. All that he had done was push back the attack, and this had been a long-distance attack as well! The gap in strength was obvious.

Fortunately, Tang Jie hadn't planned on fighting with the Flame Celestial Sovereign. After firing off that punch, he swept Yiyi, Xu Miaoran, Ice Phoenix, and Tang Dou into the Mountain River State Diagram and fled.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign savagely laughed. "Where do you think you're going?"

He thrust out a finger, setting Tang Jie's surroundings aflame. These tyrannical flames were the Origin Flames that the Flame Celestial Sovereign had cultivated for a thousand years.

Tang Jie didn't dare to take them lightly, applying numerous barriers over himself and firing off eighteen punches in front of him as he retreated backward.

Each of these punches was as strong as a Divine Connection, and they managed to slow the Flame Celestial Sovereign's advance a little while Tang Jie retreated into the flames.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign thrust out his hands, and the flames began to gain physical form, turning into giant pillars to cage Tang Jie. Tang Jie responded with 81 punches in a row, making the air in front of the Flame Celestial Sovereign explode.

The two of them were thinking the same thing. The Flame Celestial Sovereign was trying to stop Tang Jie from leaving while Tang Jie was trying to escape and stop the Flame Celestial Sovereign from getting any closer. The two hadn't even seen each other's faces yet, but they were already engaged in a long-distance battle.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign's sea of flames was engaged in a fierce battle with Tang Jie's divine strength.

But in this contest, Tang Jie had unquestionably suffered a bitter defeat. His divine strength couldn't match the Celestial Sovereign's Divine Connections, and his iron bones couldn't stop that Immortal energy. All of Tang Jie's punches were obliterated by the Flame Celestial Sovereign's power. On the other hand, Tang Jie still hadn't been able to escape the cage of flames.

The Flame Celestial Sovereign rapidly drew closer, shouting, "Tang Jie, you managed to escape last time, but today, you will finally fall into my hands! Hand over the Deicide Flame!"

A giant hand reached for Tang Jie.

"Trying to catch me? You think it's that easy?" Tang Jie chuckled.

He suddenly punched at that protrusion on the ground.
