Chapter 487: Chapter 293: Human Immortal? The Great Demon, Fallen!
“Mr. Xu, begging to see the Supreme Elder with tearful plea!”
On Tianzhu Mountain, an elderly man with an emaciated appearance spoke in a mournful tone, akin to a bird singing with blood. His shabby Taoist robe and frail aura were ample proof that he had just narrowly survived a disastrous encounter before fleeing back.
“Who dares to create a commotion on Tianhun Mountain and disturb the Supreme Elder’s quiet cultivation?”
Only moments after the voice resounded, a creature that looked like a condensation of resentment and murderous aura, with a human face and the body of a bird, swooped down from the clouds above Tianzhu Mountain. Its wings were vividly red like blood, sending chills down anyone’s spine.
“I am Elder Xu Gao who serves under the Junior Sect Master. I have an urgent matter to report to the Supreme Elder. I implore Blood Owl to relay this.”
The monstrous bird in front of him was out of breath and seemed to be at death’s door. Watching the elderly man with streams of crimson tears flowing from his eyes and a faint, pleading voice, his situation seemed very bleak.
“The Junior Sect Master? He is not welcome here, leave! Do not disturb my master’s Enlightenment!”
Upon hearing this, the bird-like creature’s face instantly discloses its impatience. It swung its wings of congealed blood, causing a strong gust of wind that rolled the pitiful-looking elderly man off the platform growing out of the mountainside.
“The Junior Sect Master is trapped in a secret realm and can’t escape. His life is in immediate danger. Please, have mercy and inform the Supreme Elder as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late!”
“Trapped in a secret realm? Go to the Sect Master. How dare you bother my master with such trifles?”
The bird-like creature became even more impatient, and its bloody eyes even began to exude a murderous intent.
“Sir, that secret realm is very peculiar. Even if we report to the Sect Master, it would do nothing more than cause more casualties. We will not be able to rescue the Junior Sect Master. It will be different if the Supreme Elder intervenes; there will be a lifeline for the Junior Sect Master.”
“Hmm? Only my master’s intervention can offer a lifeline? What kind of secret realm have you discovered?”
Despite craving the flesh and souls of cultivators, the creature is not stupid. It immediately noticed something was wrong and urgently asked, its eyes revealing a greedy look.
“This… it seems to originate from the Earth Immortal’s Dao System!”
Mr. Xu hesitated, but finally let out the shocking news. Even the creepy, sinister bird-man monster was taken aback for a second, then a doubtful expression spread across its face,
“You are just a low-grade cultivator, how would you know it’s from the Earth Immortal’s Dao System?”
“It’s not me who said it, it’s the Junior Sect Master.”
Mr. Xu quickly explained.
“Your Junior Sect Master, if I recall correctly, seems to be merely a Transforming Mortal cultivator, who hasn’t even formed his golden pill. What could he detect?”
The monster’s eyes filled with doubt. A low-grade cultivator who would be devoured within a few rounds of fighting rushed up to kowtow, saying they found the Earth Immortal’s Dao System. Could this be believed?
“Sir, although the Junior Sect Master is weak, his insight is beyond mine. Most importantly, we found a floating city in the sky, intended for crossing continents and seas.”
“A Sea-crossing Flying City?!”
The creature’s eyes froze solid, its greed manifested. If this treasure truly exists, then the secret realm they discovered most likely originates from the Earth Immortal’s Dao System. Ordinary Human Immortal’s dao lineage doesn’t possess the capability to construct flying boats.
“Yes.”
“Chou Li, bring him up!”
Then, a voice like dry, grinding metal sounded.
“I will follow your Decree!”
Hearing this voice, the previously arrogant creature immediately prostrated itself on the ground.
“Do not resist.”
After prostrating itself, the creature stood up, its huge claws moving towards the Elder. The elderly man did not dare to resist, allowing himself to be scooped up like prey in its claws.
With a violent impact, the sky and earth lost color before his eyes. A strong gust of wind howled to his face, it felt like countless blades were cutting into his skin, making it impossible for him to open his eyes.
As for his Spiritual Sense, it couldn’t be extended. Once it reached a certain height, he felt as pathetic and defenseless as a common mortal, even worse, in fact.
Bang!
A dull thud rang out, followed by intense pain radiating from underneath him. By the time he heavily fell to the ground, feeling numb on half of his body, a sinister voice resounded.
“You may open your eyes now. The master has a question for you.”
“Yes.”
Mr. Xu, trembling, managed to open his eyes, and before him sat the real backbone of the Ghost Soul Sect on an iron throne.
What a terrifying beast!
On the head of this already monstrous creature were countless twisted antlers densely packed. Gray scales, entwined with resentful souls, almost covered every part of his body. A vicious Jiao Snake hissed, which upon closer examination, turned out to be his tail.
This is their sect’s Human Immortal?
This being had nothing of what might be called immortal; it was terrifyingly demonic!
The disrespectful thought flashed through Mr. Xu’s mind briefly. He quickly got up and prostrated himself on the ground. His body shivering involuntarily, a reaction in the face of such a terrifying demon.
“Where is the secret realm you found?”
“Honorable Supreme Elder, the secret realm…”
The elderly man with white hair lifted his head, but as he was about to continue, he saw an impatient look on the demonic face,
“Too slow, I will look for myself!”
After the demon finished speaking, Elder Xu saw it extending its claw towards him. In an instant, he felt his body uncontrollably flying towards the demon, with no ability to resist.
