Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 1186 – : Overtook

Chapter 1186: Overtook

The grey-robed man looked conflicted. If he could confirm Ou Yangming’s words, he would definitely agree to it. After all, compared to a Taoist Tool, the rewards from the Mystic Sky Sect were nothing.

Moreover, he did not have the chance to get first place.

To him, even a divine medicine like the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit was far less valuable than a Taoist Tool.

It was precisely because of this that he was hesitating.

The young fellow’s offer was very tempting. Could the reward be fulfilled? This was a question.

After thinking for a while, the grey-robed man asked, “I only have one question. Logically speaking, the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit can’t be compared to a Taoist Tool. Why would you make such a loss-making deal?”

Ou Yangming smiled and answered, “In your opinion, the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit can’t be compared to a Taoist Tool, but it’s different for me. To me, it’s more valuable than a Taoist Tool because I can smith a Taoist Tool myself, but I can’t conjure the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit out of thin air.”

After saying that, Ou Yangming looked at him and asked, “Are you satisfied with this answer?”

“Okay, I agree to help you.” The grey-robed man looked at Ou Yangming’s confident look and nodded.

Even if he was cheated, it was nothing. He would not lose anything. A powerhouse’s promise still carried a lot of weight. Moreover, Ou Yangming had saved him before.

Ou Yangming smiled. “A wise choice.”

If the other party refused, Ou Yangming would also give up on the idea of asking him to help. He would not cooperate with someone who would not trust him.

“My name is Li Daoyi. What’s your name?” Only then did the grey-robed man realize that he did not seem to know the name of this young fellow.

“Ou Yangming.” Ou Yangming raised his head.

Li Daoyi thought about this name in his heart but unfortunately, he realized that he had never heard of a powerhouse called Ou Yangming. It was as if the young fellow had appeared out of thin air.

Ou Yangming’s reputation was quite well-known near the Hidden Dragons Island, but it was only in the vicinity. The Great Wide World was very big, whereas the island was very small.

The young fellow temporarily accepted Li Daoyi as his follower. As such, Lil’ Red and Big Yellow could only continue to stay in the poisonous pill’s world. It was best that their existence was not discovered by others.

They did not waste any time. After they reached a deal, the 2 of them immediately left.

The outside world was in a complete uproar.

Ou Yangming’s points had increased like an explosion, causing many people in the Great Wide World to be dumbstruck.

Someone exclaimed, “What did I see? The points on that jade token actually increased by more than 7,000 points in an instant. What did that human powerhouse do?”

Not long ago, the 999th jade token had only attracted the attention of a portion of people. Now, almost every human who was paying attention to the golden wall had their eyes on that jade token.

After his points skyrocketed, Ou Yangming was firmly ranked first, and the second was the Heavenly Star Mansion’s master, who only had more than 5,000 points.

“This is too exaggerated. He must’ve killed an Ancient Demon in the second step. This should be the first Ancient Demon in the second step to be killed in the Desolate Ancient Ruins, right?” Someone in Zhongzhou City asked in surprise.

“No, it should be the second one. The first one was killed by the Heavenly Sky Mansion’s master. A few hours ago, the master gained 2,000 points. He must’ve killed an Ancient Demon in the second step.”

“This isn’t the first one, but it’s definitely the most powerful one. This Ancient Demon is considered a top-notch expert even among the ones in the second step. It’s more than twice as powerful as the one killed by the Heavenly Sky Mansion’s master. I really don’t know how that human powerhouse did it.”

The biggest dark horse had appeared in the battle to exterminate the demons in the Desolate Ancient Ruins. The powerhouse corresponding to the 999th jade token had a huge lead after taking a step ahead. Even a human powerhouse like the master of the Heavenly Star Mansion was forcefully suppressed.

As for the other Rulers in the second step, their situation was even worse. Most of them were hovering around 1,000 to 2,000 points and were not much different from Li Daoyi.

With Li Daoyi joining in, Ou Yangming’s points increased even faster. The 2 of them worked together and killed all the Ancient Demons they encountered, but the young fellow was left to collect points alone.

As time passed, everyone’s points increased. Nonetheless, Ou Yangming’s points increased the fastest.

Without a doubt, the gap was getting bigger. It seemed that the first place was a foregone conclusion.

Another strange thing was that the jade token ranked 8th had not increased a single point in a long time, but the jade token was intact and undamaged.

Everyone guessed that this powerhouse had gone into seclusion to recuperate from his serious injuries. Even so, some people also related it to the increase in the number of points on the 999th jade token.

The setting sun was like blood, and a violent wind blew.

At this time, the withered weeds on the ground swayed with the strong wind, and some of them were directly swept up into the sky by the strong wind. On the grass not far away lay the carcasses of more than 10 Ancient Demons. Each of them was a Ruler. For some reason, they gathered and died together.

Facing 2 top-notch human powerhouses in the second step, the only thing that awaited them was death.

“How many points do we have?”

The grey-robed Li Daoyi looked at Ou Yangming, who had stood up. The young fellow had collected all the points.

Ou Yangming turned his head, revealing his white front teeth, and said, “Not bad. Including them, I’d have more than 56,000 points.”

More than 56,000 points. This was what they had gained in the past few days. The number of Ancient Demons they had killed in the past few days was uncountable.

Nevertheless, they did not encounter any in the second step.

Li Daoyi said in a low voice, “With this score, you should be ranked first.”

They were in the Desolate Ancient Ruins, so they had no way to know the ranking of the outside world from their jade tokens. Of course, they could not ask through a voice transmission, so they could only guess the ranking.

“No… Not “should”, but “must’!” Ou Yangming’s eyes were full of smiles. He glanced at Li Daoyi and said with a smile, “We agreed before that only if my points are ranked first will the promise between us be fulfilled.”

“Of course.”Li Daoyi smiled bitterly.

On a big mountain in the west of the Desolate Ancient Ruins.

This mountain was big and stretched endlessly. On top of the mountain, there was a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe. If Ou Yangming was here, he would be able to recognize this person. This person was the owner of the 1st jade token, the heaven-defying and formidable master from the Heavenly Star Mansion.

The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master scanned the mountain. No, to be precise, he was looking at a certain corner of the mountain.

He muttered, “I finally found their nest. It seems that the first place will surely belong to me.”

The Bloodthirsty Ants were low-level existences in the Ancient Demons. Their bodies were very small, and most of them were only Venerable Ones in the early stage.

Ordinary Bloodthirsty Ants only gave 2 or 3 points at most, but there were plenty of them. The center of the mountain had been hollowed out, and the number of Bloodthirsty Ants inside was uncountable.

The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master had a smile on his face. He had followed a few Bloodthirsty Ants for a long time before coming here. These treasures belonged to him now.

With a wave of his hand, a few small blue flags flew out from his body. There were a total of 8 small flags, and each of them was shining with rune light. The flags flew in all directions and soon, the entire mountain was surrounded by them.

The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master made a strange gesture with both hands and at the same time, a dark cloud covered the sky.

Lightning suddenly appeared in the clouds, dazzling and accompanied by rolling thunderbolts.

Many Bloodthirsty Ants crawled out from the ground in the mountain, and they looked at the sky with fear.

The Bloodthirsty Ants were not intelligent. Without their queen’s leadership, they would not be much different from ordinary beasts. Despite that, they could still sense the danger from the sky.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

A thunderbolt fell from the sky, and an intense roar sounded in the Desolate Ancient Ruins.

The thunderbolt seemed to have eyes as it shot toward the place where the Bloodthirsty Ants were the most numerous. After a short while, the dust settled, and dozens of Bloodthirsty Ants were killed.

This was only the beginning.

The Bloodthirsty Ants on the ground were calling out in a daze, but the thunderbolts in the sky were increasing. The thunderbolts seemed to have turned the sky into a purgatory.

Thunderbolts flashed like purple snakes, and the tall mountain was blasted into flat ground. Numerous Bloodthirsty Ants crawled out from the mountain, and the thunderbolts they endured dissipated into thin air.

Those Bloodthirsty Ants wanted to escape, but they found that their surroundings had been sealed off. The entire mountain was covered by thunderbolts, and they had no way out.

Miserable screams sounded like the howls of ghosts and gods. The underground boulders were blown away by the thunderbolts, and a big creature that was hundreds of times larger than ordinary Bloodthirsty Ants appeared. Its body was blood-red, and it was staring at the humans in the sky with fear and anger.

It turned around and intended to burrow into the ground again, but what greeted it was a ray of sword-light. Its sturdy armor was as weak as tofu, and the queen was cut into two halves by a single sword strike.

A Ruler of the laws could kill an ant with a single sword.

The thunderbolts continued to rumble.

After 4 hours, the thunderbolts gradually disappeared. The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master waved his hand, and a few small blue flags flew over from all directions. He took back the small blue flags, and the world returned to silence.

The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master looked at the ground with a cold look. The tall mountain had been razed to the ground, and the ground had turned into a pile of scorched earth.

Furthermore, the Bloodthirsty Ants hidden in the mountain had also disappeared in the thunderbolts just now.

The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master revealed a stern smile. He raised his hand and threw his jade token into the air.

Dense blood and Qi of Ancient Demons flew into it, and the points on it rapidly increased. A Venerable Bloodthirsty Ant only gave a few points. These Bloodthirsty Ants were weak, and they were the weakest even among Venerable Ones, but there were plenty of them.

The people outside who paid attention to the wall were struck dumb. ‘What kind of crazy thing did the Humans’ almighty powerhouse do?’

‘What’s wrong with his points? Is he crazy?’

The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master’s jade token was placed first, and the people who noticed the change were also the most. The master, who was temporarily ranked second with over 30,000 points, instantly increased his points by 80,000 points. At this moment, his points had broken through 100,000 points, surpassing the legendary dark horse, the 999th powerhouse.

“Amazing, he actually gained so much in one go. This time, the master of the Heavenly Star Mansion will surely be ranked first.”

On the wall, the points of the Heavenly Star Mansion’s master were already far ahead, followed closely by the 999th powerhouse. As for the others, even the Rulers in the second step were also far behind. Their points were not worth mentioning.

As for the human powerhouses who were only in the law boundary and ordinary Rulers, needless to say, no one paid any attention to them.

“The master of Heavenly Star Mansion is truly amazing. As expected of the greatest powerhouse in the second step.”

“With this, the first place has been set for sure. The 999th powerhouse is also very powerful. It’s a pity that he met the master of the Heavenly Star Mansion.”
