Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 1190 – Conspiracy

Chapter 1190: Conspiracy

In a remote corner of the Desolate Ancient Ruins.

The Demon King raised his head and looked at the human with a sword on his back not far away. His eyes flashed with hatred.

‘He simply won’t leave!’

For the time being, the Demon King did not plan to go against the Humans. He just wanted to recover from his injuries. Who knew, the human powerhouses were aggressive. It was not easy for him to avoid one. He did not expect to meet another one.

“Who are you? What’s your relationship with that old man from the Mystic Sky Sect?” The Demon King looked cautious. If he was at his peak, he would not care about this human. Unfortunately, he had just been resurrected, and there was not much power left in his body. Any human powerhouse in the third step could chase after him and make him flee.

This person was also an existence in the third step.

The old man in the sky had a malicious look in his eyes. He asked in a deep voice, “Can’t you see that I’m different from that person?”

“Different?”

The Demon King’s eyes focused, then he said in surprise, “You’re a human, but you’re not from this world.”

At this time, the other party did not hide his aura. The Demon King took a closer look and immediately noticed the difference. The human was incompatible with the Great Wide World’s powers of laws. He was only by relying on a certain treasure to reduce the repulsive force to the smallest extent.

The Nine-sworded Ruler laughed out loud. His gaze playfully swept over the Demon King as he said indifferently, “Looks like you’re not stupid.”

“Which world are you from? What kind of conspiracy did you come to the Great Wide World for? Why are you looking for me?” The Demon King’s eyes were filled with wariness.

In another world, a Demon King would definitely know that outsiders were eyeing the Great Wide World covetously.

The Nine-sworded Ruler grinned. “The Third World’s Heavenly Path Alliance.”

“What? The Heavenly Path Alliance? What do you want to do?” The Demon King’s tone was filled with shock and disbelief.

The Demon King knew the Heavenly Path Alliance. It was a huge sect that unified the entire Third World. The Heavenly Path Alliance’s status in the Third World was more than 10 times greater than that of the Mystic Sky Sect in the Great Wide World. They were equivalent to the combined power of the Humans, the Dragons, and the Phoenixes.

Why would such an influential sect come to the Great Wide World?

‘Their goal…’

Upon thinking about this, the Demon King’s heart turned cold. Even when he was at his peak, he had to look up to the Heavenly Path Alliance, let alone at this time.

The Nine-sworded Ruler smiled faintly. “You don’t need to think about what we want to do. I know what you need. I’ve already prepared countless blood essences of the Demons. They can restore your strength to its peak.”

“What do you want?” The Demon King did not think that the other party would give them to him for free. Demon blood essences were what he needed the most right now, but the Desolate Ancient Ruins were full of humans at the moment. That old fellow from the Mystic Sky Sect was looking for him everywhere. As long as he revealed a trace of his aura, he would face the fate of being hunted down.

Given his previous strength, if he wanted to recover to his peak state, he would need a huge amount of blood essence. He estimated that he would need to slaughter more than half of the demons in the Desolate Ancient Ruins to achieve that.

The Nine-sworded Ruler smiled. “As expected, you’re straightforward. I like people like you. I know that there’s a Fine Grade Taoist Tool called the Heaven-breaking Shuttle in the Desolate Ancient Ruins. As long as you give me that thing, I can give you all of the demon blood essences.”

“You want the Heaven-breaking Shuttle!” The Demon King’s huge eyes widened. He looked at the Nine-sworded Ruler in the sky. “Are you guys planning to…”

There was a look of struggle in his eyes.

He knew the other party’s goal. The Heaven-breaking Shuttle was a treasure that could break through a world’s barrier. It was self-evident why the other party wanted that thing.

The Third World and the Great Wide World were separated by an interspatial barrier. The Nine-sworded Ruler had paid a huge price to come over. It was almost impossible to send others over.

Nonetheless, with the Heaven-breaking Shuttle, the other party could send many powerhouses over. By then, who the Great Wide World would belong to would be unknown.

The Third World was an ancient world that had developed billions of years before the Great Wide World. How could the Great Wide World resist its invasion?

Seeing the Demon King’s hesitation, the Nine-sworded Ruler took out a jade bottle and threw it over. After the Demon King received the jade bottle, he said, “This is a welcome gift from the Heavenly Path Alliance. It contains the blood essences of the Demons. It should be able to restore about 30% of your strength. I’ll give you the rest after I get the Heaven-breaking Shuttle.”

The jade bottle did not look big, but it was a piece of interspatial equipment. There was a lot of blood in it, so much so that it could fill a small river.

This was what the Demon King needed the most. If he recovered 30% of his strength, he would be able to leave calmly when facing the Mystic Sky Sect’s powerhouse. He would not be in danger of dying again.

He had plotted for numerous years before he was lucky enough to be resurrected. He did not want to leave this world so early.

The Nine-sworded Ruler grinned and continued to tempt the king, “Don’t worry. I can guarantee on behalf of the Heavenly Path Alliance that no matter what we do, it won’t harm the interests of your race. We guarantee that you’ll be able to appear openly in this world and become one of the masters of the Great Wide World.”

This made the Demon King’s expression change.

“You can have the Heaven-breaking Shuttle if you want. I only have one question. What exactly are you planning to do? Are you planning to destroy the 3 great races of the Great Wide World and turn this place into a subsidiary world of the Third World?” The Demon King stared at the Nine-sworded Ruler.

The Nine-sworded Ruler frowned slightly. He was unwilling to answer this question at first but seeing the Demon King’s determined look, he slowly said, “We don’t have that goal. After all, the Third World’s big enough, and it’s already very difficult for the Heavenly Path Alliance to manage it. The Fifth World isn’t very attractive to us. The main reason we need the Heaven-breaking Shuttle is…”

He paused for a moment then said with a stern look, “If you want to know, you have to swear first. You’re not allowed to tell anyone.”

The Demon King did not hesitate. He looked at the sky and said in a deep voice, “By the heavenly path, I, Taotie, swear that I’ll never tell anyone what I hear. If I go against it, my soul and body will be destroyed!”

“Okay.” The Nine-sworded Ruler nodded and said in a cold tone, “I think you’ve heard of the Immortal Path to Heaven…”

“What!?” The Demon King’s face was filled with shock. This name seemed to be some sort of taboo.

He was flustered as he asked in a low voice, “Could it be…”

The Nine-sworded Ruler said coldly, “You guessed correctly. The Immortal Path to Heaven will be opened again very soon. The Heavenly Path Alliance’s great elder predicted that the place where the Immortal Path to Heaven will be opened this time will be in the Great Wide World. Now, you should understand our purpose, right?”

“Alright, I’ll help you,” the Demon King responded in a low voice. His eyes flickered. No one knew what he was thinking.

The Demon King, Taotie, opened the jade bottle and swallowed the demon blood essences in one gulp.

Those blood flowed in his body and after a while, a terrifying aura appeared on the Demon King’s body.

The Nine-sworded Ruler stood on the horizon not far away. He did not look good when he saw this. The Demon King’s body could recover, but his…

“Damn b*stard.” The Nine-sworded Ruler looked ferocious.

The last time in the heart of origins, he had been injured by that mysterious Bone Dragon in one move, and his foundation had been injured. Now, not only had his strength decreased a lot, but he was still severely injured. There was no way for him to recover. Perhaps he would only have a chance to resolve it when he returned to the Third World’s Heavenly Path Alliance, but it was easier said than done to return.

Before long, the aura of Demon King Taotie grew stronger. The Nine-sworded Ruler suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance. A white figure was flying rapidly in the sky. In the blink of an eye, it had crossed a distance of 100 kilometers.

Upon seeing this person, the Nine-sworded Ruler’s expression changed slightly. The treasure sword on his back suddenly flew out, and the aura on his body burst out.

“An outsider!”

A thunderous voice sounded in the sky as the sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect shouted in a deep voice. His eyes were also filled with shock. It had been a long time since someone from the outer realms had appeared in the Great Wide World.

An Ancient Demon King and a person from the outer realms. How could anything good happen when the 2 of them were together?

“How have you been, Sir Sect Elder?” The Nine-sworded Ruler said with a sneer.

The sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect did not answer the Nine-sworded Ruler. He looked at the Demon King on the ground, and his expression changed slightly.

“Clang!”

The longsword left his hand, and a sharp sword-light bloomed as it slashed toward the demon king.

He could tell that the Demon King was recovering his strength.

If he succeeded, the consequences would be unimaginable! The sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect had to stop him.

The Nine-sworded Ruler’s giant sword flew out at the same time. The sword blocked the sect leader’s longsword. This allowed the Demon King, who was recovering his strength, to escape death by a fluke.

It was important that the Demon King could not die, at least not yet.

Before the Nine-sworded Ruler obtained the Heaven-breaking Shuttle, he had to let the Demon King Live!

The Nine-sworded Ruler’s body turned into a series of afterimages. He held the giant sword and slashed at the sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect, not giving him a second chance to attack.

With that. the sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect gave up on his target and turned around to fight with the Nine-sworded Ruler. Although the Nine-sworded Ruler’s strength was not as strong as his, it was still in the third step and could not be ignored.

Countless sword-lights flashed in the sky like dazzling fireworks.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

The longsword and the giant sword collided with each other, producing a deafening sound. Both of the weapons were Acquired Taoist Tools. The sky of the Desolate Ancient Ruins was cut open by the sword Qi, and the spaces in the broken spots were chaotic.

After all, the Nine-sworded Ruler was injured. He had a treasure, but he was still rejected by the Great Wide World.

In terms of combat power, he was still far from the sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect. It was hard to tell what was going on between 1 or 2 moves. As time passed, he soon lost his strength.

Under the continuous exchange of blows, blood trickled down the corner of the Nine-sworded Ruler’s mouth. He narrowed his eyes and shouted into the distance, “Taotie, come over and help!”

A black light flashed. During the battle between them, the Demon King’s strength had barely recovered by 30%. He rose from the ground and attacked the sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect with his huge fist. After being chased for so long, the fire in his heart could no longer be suppressed. At this moment, it completely burst out.
