Chapter 176 - Bullsh*t Central Plains!
Those cultivators turned around and tried to escape, but their bodies suddenly froze and were restrained by an invisible force.
Different from the cultivator at the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension, this time, they felt that they had lost control of their bodies. Not only could they not use their spiritual power, they could not even blink their eyes. It was as if time had stopped around them.
The dozens of cultivators were shocked.
The immortal shadow in the void pointed out with a finger.
The beam of light dispersed into dozens of beams of light.
After scattering, the power of the intense beam of light did not decrease. Instead, it accurately struck the bodies of those cultivators.
The bodies of those cultivators instantly disappeared. Just like the melting of ice and snow, their bodies disappeared between the Heaven and Earth.
They were truly reduced to ashes.
Not even a speck of dust was left behind.
The remaining storage bags of the cultivators were conveniently taken by Reverend Wan Xuan.
Yu Mingzhi, Yu Hongye, and the others on the flying boat of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets were dumbstruck by the scene in front of them.
After killing those dozens of cultivators, the immortal shadow in the sky turned its head around and bowed to Yu Mingzhi and the others.
At the same time, an ethereal voice was heard by Yu Mingzhi and the others.
“I hope that the members of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets will greet the Lord behind the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets on my behalf.”
With that, the Immortal disappeared with Reverend Wan Xuan.
After a long time, Yu Mingzhi came back to his senses.
His face was full of excitement and excitement.
“I understand! Hongye, do you know why this Immortal is here?”
Yu Hongye was still in a daze and asked, “Why?”
Yu Mingzhi was even more excited.
“The Immortals protect each other. This must be a backup plan left behind by Senior Liu.”
“Senior Liu’s backup plan may be late and will appear in different forms, but he will never be absent.”
“Hongye, perhaps, when Senior gave you this painting, he had already planned everything.”
Yu Hongye nodded thoughtfully.
“It seems so.”
…
In the furthest distance that could be seen from the flying boat of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, there was a cultivator hanging in the sky, hiding in the clouds.
This was Wu Wu, who was planning to fish in troubled waters.
When Wu Wu found out that the dozens of cultivators were actually in cahoots, he had already planned to give up.
He also thought that the people of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets were doomed.
However, who would have thought that the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets could actually be protected by an Immortal?
The moment the Immortal appeared, Wu Wu seemed to feel that the Immortal was glancing in the direction where he was hiding.
It was just a glance, but Wu Wu was like falling into an ice hole.
At that moment, Wu Wu was afraid that he would be annihilated by the Immortal’s finger.
Fortunately, the Immortal saw that he didn’t have any ill intentions and didn’t lower himself to the same level.
Wu Wu only heaved a sigh of relief after the Immortal killed dozens of cultivators.
Dozens of cultivators at the Dharma Idol level and above could destroy any sect in the Southern Region, but they were actually reduced to ashes by the Immortal’s light with a flick of his finger.
Wu Wu was extremely shocked.
“Is this the true strength of an Immortal? Even a cultivator at the late stage of the Tribulation Transcending realm who can dominate an area is unable to resist. The difference between a cultivator and an Immortal is really like the difference between the Heavens and the Earth,” Wu Wu muttered, his entire being still in a trance.
What he saw at the Myriad Treasure Convention was only a projection of an Immortal in the Mortal World.
But now, when a real Immortal appeared in front of Wu Wu, Wu Wu only knew how astonishing the strength of an Immortal was.
Wu Wu sighed with emotion and said, “Senior, thank goodness you told me not to act rashly. Otherwise, I would have died on the spot. An old man in my family is like a treasure.”
The old man in his mind didn’t pay much attention to Wu Wu’s teasing words. He sighed in amazement as well.
“As expected of the great fortune of the Ancient Immortal Court. It actually attracted the attention of a Celestial Immortal. This is indeed not something you can get your hands on right now. Continue to wait. Don’t show any hostility towards the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.”
“Yes, Senior.”
Wu Wu waited until the flying ship of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets left, and there was no sign of Reverend Wan Xuan in the sky. Only then did he reveal himself from his hiding place.
Wu Wu said anxiously, “Senior, what should we do next? Should we go back home? I really can’t accept this. Such a world-shaking opportunity is right in front of me, and I can only watch helplessly as it leaves.”
The old man said, “Follow them. Those people of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets shouldn’t be near the Danxia Holy Land. That Immortal will at most escort them to the teleportation point. In a while, you will also be teleported to another place and then make your plans. We still have a chance.”
“Yes, Senior,” Wu Wu nodded and replied.
He was very unwilling. Originally, he had planned to extend a hand to the people from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets when they were in danger, to win their favor. Who would have thought that those people were actually in cahoots, and that an Immortal would appear after that?
It was true that one’s plans were not as good as those of the Heavens.
However, there was still a chance.
Wu Wu’s expression was not very dejected.
Just as Wu Wu was about to head to the teleportation point, his expression suddenly changed. He shouted in a certain direction behind him, “Who is it? Who is hiding? Come out.”
Just as Wu Wu finished speaking, two cultivators appeared.
Wu Wu’s expression changed drastically.
Those two cultivators were shockingly Soul Formation stage cultivators.
The two Soul Formation stage cultivators glanced at Wu Wu greedily. In front of Wu Wu, they communicated,
“I didn’t expect that an Exalted Immortal would descend. It seems that our plan is correct. Even a few old birds in the late stage of the Tribulation Transcension have died. It seems that the fortune of the Ancient Immortal Court is not something we can get our hands on. We might as well kill this kid in front of us. For him to be able to take out the treasure that triggered the Vermilion Bird Phenomenon, there must be some fortune hidden on him.”
“That’s right, that kid is quite patient. I quite admire him. However, he can only die here today.”
Wu Wu’s expression became even uglier when he heard the two Soul Formation stage cultivators talking without concealing their killing intent.
Wu Wu’s face was already dark. Under the effects of anger and fear, his face turned into the color of a pig’s liver.
Wu Wu pretended to be calm. He gently stroked his long hair and said indifferently, “I am a cultivator of the Central Plains. The sect behind me has a very big background. Moreover, the sect has my life token. If you kill me, you will attract the pursuit of the entire sect.”
The two cultivators mocked, “What b*llshit Central Plains? It’s just slightly in the middle, and you dare to call yourself the Central Plains. Those who don’t know how important the Central Plains is are actually unable to withstand a single blow. You cultivators of the Central Plains really know how to bluff. Tell me, the two of us, the cultivators who specialized in robbing the Central Plains, those pitiful people in your sect have already passed away. I remember that there was a little girl who shouted ‘Junior Brother Wu, save me’ when she died. How touching!”
Wu Wu’s face changed.
The veins on his face bulged.
An important purpose of Wu Wu’s cultivation was to protect his gentle Senior Sister.
Now that he heard that she had passed away, he lost his mind instantly.
