Above the Great Dao

Chapter 518: Turning to the Demon Emperor (Part 2)


Feng Ruotong knitted his brows slightly and said, "When did the Heavenly Venerate get injured? Where is the injury? Who could injure the Heavenly Venerate?"

Immortal Xi said, "It was when Chen Shi's Skull Body crossed the Tribulation in the underworld that the Heavenly Venerate got injured. As for who caused the injury and where, that's not something we can know."

Feng Ruotong looked strange and murmured, "Was the Heavenly Venerate injured on the day Chen Shi's Skull Body crossed the Tribulation? So, the injury is in the center of the forehead, right?"

Immortal Xi said, "We noticed the Heavenly Venerate's aura was unstable, clearly indicating an injury, but we don't know where it is. Senior Brother, how did you know the injury was in the center of the forehead? Could it be that the Heavenly Venerate got injured in a battle with the Demon Emperor?"

"The Demon Emperor? How could that be... Yes, it was the Demon Emperor! Hahahaha! Indeed, it was the Demon Emperor who blinded one of the Heavenly Venerate's eyes!"

Feng Ruotong laughed heartily, as if having thought of something extremely funny, laughing so hard he could hardly breathe.

The four of them frowned, not understanding why he was laughing so suddenly.

When his laughter subsided, Immortal Ping quickly said, "Senior Brother, do you know the inside story of the Heavenly Venerate's injury?"

Feng Ruotong controlled his laughter and said, "I know a little of the inside story. As it turns out, this matter is somewhat related to me. Heh, the Heavenly Venerate, heh heh..."

Immortal Ping said, "Could it be you who brought out the Demon Emperor, causing both the Heavenly Venerate and the Demon Emperor to suffer mutual destruction?"

Feng Ruotong shook his head and laughed, "It's unrelated to that. I didn't bring out the Demon Emperor. But the Heavenly Venerate's injury is indeed related to the Demon Emperor."

He recalled how Chen Shi's Skull Body used the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Saber to cut into the Fog Month, injuring the vertical eye in the Heavenly Venerate's forehead, and his expression turned strange. Even if Chen Shi's Skull Body survived the Heavenly Tribulation, it shouldn't have been able to injure the Heavenly Venerate, but that blade's power was truly terrifyingly extreme, and finally injured the Heavenly Venerate!

He even suspected that someone secretly aided Chen Shi in wielding the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Saber to ambush the Heavenly Venerate!

Seeing him conceal the truth, Immortal Xi became even angrier and shouted, "Senior Brother, Immortal Kou and Zhong Wuwang, one is dead, and the other is injured."

"What?"

Feng Ruotong's aura suddenly erupted, grabbing Immortal Xi's hand, demanding fiercely, "Who is dead and who is injured? Who dealt the deadly blows? Is it the Heavenly Venerate?"

He was the eldest among the Heavenly Dao immortals at Despair Slope, the first of the Heavenly Dao immortals, and others who joined later, though about the same age, had all harmonized at the True God Dojo. Immortal Xi and the others originally thought all their cultivation levels were similar. But now, with Immortal Xi unable to use any of his cultivation when held by the wrist, he couldn't help but feel astonished inside, "Senior Brother Feng's strength far exceeds mine! Could it be that he has already entered the next realm?"

He pondered anxiously, "Can we Heavenly Dao immortals also enter the next realm? What is the next realm?"

Even as a Heavenly Dao immortal, he had no clue what the next realm after Harmonization was; the Heavenly Venerate had never mentioned it, only said they harmonized in the True God Dojo and that reaching the pinnacle of Heavenly Immortal was impossible to progress further.

Immortal Xi endured the pain and said, "The immortals staying at Despair Slope used the Heaven Listeners to send us a message, saying Immortal Kou and Wu Wang went down the mountain to find you, but encountered the Demon Emperor; Immortal Kou died an unnatural death, and Wu Wang turned into a fool!"

"Impossible!"

Feng Ruotong shook off his hand, coldly saying, "The Demon Emperor couldn't have killed Immortal Kou; another person made the deadly move!"

His mind raced, quickly grasping the key point, a cold look on his face, his voice hoarse, "Did Wu Wang harmonize?"

The four immortals were startled, and Immortal Ping asked, "How do you know?"

Feng Ruotong's face turned grim, and coldly said, "I already know who the culprit is. This one's target was not Immortal Kou but Wu Wang. He wanted to kill Wu Wang, to destroy the Innate Dao Embryo so that Wu Wang wouldn't threaten his power. Immortal Kou died protecting Wu Wang, which is why he met with his fatal end."

Immortal Kou was the one he brought into the sect, his disciple, and their relationship was deep. Later, when Immortal Kou achieved cultivation and established his own sect, they referred to each other as Daoist friends.

Now that Immortal Kou was dead, it made him indescribably sad and immensely angry.

"Senior Brother, who is the culprit?" Immortal Ping asked urgently.

Feng Ruotong's gaze landed on his face, then shifted, scanning over the faces of the other three immortals, and said in a deep voice, "The Heavenly Venerate."

The four were greatly shaken, speaking in unison, "Impossible!"

"The Heavenly Venerate is the main culprit behind the destruction of the Great Shang Era, the source of the corruption."

Feng Ruotong sneered, "The Fog Month in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains is the eye at the center of his forehead. When Chen Shi's Skull Body crossed the Tribulation, the Heavenly Venerate used the Fog Month to execute him but was wounded by Chen Shi with the Blood Transformation Divine Saber. At that time, I was present!"

The four immortals exchanged looks, thoughts racing, "Senior Brother Feng might be crazy."

Feng Ruotong said, "After getting injured, the Heavenly Venerate returned to Despair Slope to heal, fearing the Demon Emperor would take advantage of the situation. Heh, his courage is far smaller than I expected."

Immortal Ping coughed and said, "Senior Brother Feng, you've been away from Despair Slope too long, come back with us."

The other three immortals nodded.

Feng Ruotong continued on his own, "Zhong Wuwang practices a new method, achieving Harmonization and Immortality, and he must not have used the True God Dojo to harmonize but explored a different path. The Heavenly Venerate got scared, so when Immortal Kou brought Wu Wang to find me on the road, he took action and executed them both!"

He frowned slightly, pacing back and forth, and muttered, "But why did Wu Wang survive? Logically, the Heavenly Venerate wouldn't leave such a loophole..."

He was puzzled, not knowing that Zhong Wuwang had also been killed by the Heavenly Venerate at that time, but survived thanks to the Undying Immortal Method.

The Undying Immortal Method was truly peculiar, exceeding his comprehension.

The four saw his words becoming more and more absurd, exchanging glances and quietly spreading out, standing around Feng Ruotong.

Immortal Xi said, "Brother Feng, you've been in contact with the Grand Sacrificer of Demon City for too long, and your mind has been influenced by his Demon Path. Come with us back to Despair Slope and let the Heavenly Venerate resolve your Demonic Nature."

The four each raised their mana to the extreme, and a flying Immortal Sword rose behind them, pinning down the surrounding heavens and earth, leaving Feng Ruotong with no escape.

Immortal Ping said, "Brother, don't resist. We just want you to come back to Despair Slope with us!"

The four were about to act when Feng Ruotong suddenly swayed slightly, his shoulder leaning against Immortal Ping's chest.

Immortal Ping groaned, followed by a loud bang, as his body crashed through the wall. Then, the Heavenly Water River surface surged with two towering waves, and a mountain peak a hundred miles away trembled, with Immortal Ping embedded into the mountain!

As Immortal Ping flew out, Feng Ruotong's other hand was already pressed onto another Immortal's forehead, smashing them harshly onto the ground, causing the earth to rumble and sink!

Immortal Xi, without hesitation, raised his Immortal Sword to strike, but a loud bang was heard as the third Immortal was sent flying, leaving only him standing in front of Feng Ruotong.

"Hold on, Brother!"

Immortal Xi resisted the urge to act, speaking in a deep voice, "Brother, speak your conjectures, maybe I can be convinced!"

Feng Ruotong slapped a palm, shaking his Primordial Spirit, then his fingers moved rapidly, sealing his Physical Body and Primordial Spirit, making it difficult for him to mobilize mana.

Immortal Xi was shocked and angry, "Brother, you've really gone mad!"

At this moment, several Heavenly Dao Practitioners living next door rushed in upon hearing the commotion, Immortal Xi hurriedly shouted, "You guys, Brother Feng has gone mad, quickly leave!"

Those Heavenly Dao Practitioners saluted Feng Ruotong, asking, "Master Uncle, what happened?"

Feng Ruotong lifted Immortal Xi and tossed him to them, saying, "The Heavenly Venerate is the master of Fog Month. We blinded the vertical eye in his brow. He didn't believe it, so I captured him."

Immortal Xi laughed furiously, speaking to the Heavenly Dao Practitioners, "Listen, Brother Feng has already gone mad..."

"The master of Fog Month is the Heavenly Venerate?"

The Heavenly Dao Practitioners only showed slight astonishment, then accepted this fact, one quickly said, "Uncle Xi has been deceived by the Heavenly Venerate and is stubbornly ignorant, how should we handle it?"

Despite Immortal Xi's good temper, he was furious, yelling, "Handle your grandmother's leg!"

Feng Ruotong flew away, shouting, "There are three more, deal with them together!"

From afar came the fluctuations of Daoist Skill collisions, moving left and right; after a while, Immortal Ping and the other two Immortals were thrown down.

The Heavenly Dao Practitioners took out the Binding Immortal Rope, tying the four Immortals firmly.

A woman said, "Since several uncles are stubbornly ignorant, why not just send them on their way!"

"On what road?"

Immortal Ping was so enraged he almost spat blood, shouting, "You guys have also followed Feng Ruotong into madness! You've been influenced by the Demon Emperor and undergone Demon Transformation, harming fellow disciples!"

Feng Ruotong said, "If I clash with them, it will certainly attract the Heaven Listeners. Take them, we'll return to the Mortal World and meet the Demon Emperor."

Immortal Xi, furious, cursed loudly, "Feng Ruotong, you really have colluded with the Demon Emperor! Bastard, today I'll fight you to the death!"

Feng Ruotong pointed a finger, Immortal Xi's Immortal Sword rose, turning into a soft coil, circling Immortal Xi's neck.

"Curse me again, and I'll sever your head," Feng Ruotong said.

Immortal Xi dared not speak again.

Feng Ruotong took the crowd back to the Mortal World; this place corresponded exactly to Qianyang Mountain in the Mortal World. Feng Ruotong immediately flew up, taking them towards the nearby Imperial Capital Xinxiang.

The four Immortals were stunned, "The Demon Emperor is not in the underworld?"

Soon after, they saw Chen Shi, each was momentarily stupefied.
