Chapter 1422 - Dead or Alive
Chapter 1422: Dead or Alive
“The Primordial Six Races sure think highly of me,”
Su Zimo laughed without any fear in his eyes.
“Patron Desolate Martial, let me say one more thing. You must not underestimate your opponent! The Killing Badge is irreconcilable once released!”
Elder Hui Xing said earnestly, “The primordial races will send top-tier experts to look for you and their combat strength is not something the primordial race beings of Heaven and Earth Valley can compare with. If these experts fail to succeed, the primordial races will send even stronger people to kill you!”
“Even Ethereal Peak and Hundred Refinement Sect won’t be able to defend against it, let alone you.”
“In the ancient era, there were even many Emperors of the human race who could not withstand the Killing Badges and died in the hands of the primordial races!”
“I got it. Thank you for your reminder, Fellow Daoist,”
Su Zimo nodded and turned to leave.
He had already asked about Ming Zhen and there was no need for him to get entangled with the monks of Dapamkara Monastery.
Furthermore, now that he was hunted by the Primordial Six Races, Dapamkara Monastery would want nothing more than to avoid him. Why should he linger here and attract attention?
The monks of Dapamkara Monastery heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Su Zimo leave.
Only Elder Hui Xing frowned slightly with a worried expression and could not help but ask, “Patron Desolate Martial, where are you going?”
“Southern Duel Sect,”
Su Zimo said indifferently.
“Ah!”
The monks exclaimed in shock.
Desolate Martial was truly audacious. Instead of hiding from the Killing Badges of the primordial races, he was going to offer himself to them?!
Elder Hui Xing hesitated for a moment and persuaded, “Patron Desolate Martial, pardon me for being blunt. Right now, the 50 kilometers around Six Stars Mountain of Southern Duel Sect is occupied by the Blood Vine race.”
“There are probably more than 10,000 beings from the Blood Vine race on Six Stars Mountain. With the young master of the Blood Vine race personally guarding, even super sects and factions won’t be able to match them, let alone you!”
What Elder Hui Xing said was indeed the truth.
Given the current strength of the Blood Vine race in Southern Duel Sect, unless a human Patriarch appeared or super sects of the South Region joined forces, Su Zimo would truly be weak alone.
“That’s right, Ming Zhen is already dead. There’s no hurry to take revenge, Patron Desolate Martial,”
Abbot Hui Shen persuaded as well.
“How do you know that Ming Zhen is already dead?”
Su Zimo paused in his tracks and asked.
“It’s been… ten years. Ming Zhen must have died a long time ago after falling into the hands of the Blood Vine race. How can he still be alive?”
Abbot Hui Shen laughed bitterly.
“Ming Zhen is my friend and also my senior brother. Since he’s in Southern Duel Sect, I want to see him alive or dead!”
Su Zimo’s face was filled with killing intent as he said murderously, “If Ming Zhen dies, the Blood Vine race beings at Southern Duel Sect will have to die with him!”
With that, he left Dapamkara Monastery without turning back.
“Patron Desolate Martial!”
Elder Hui Xing looked at Su Zimo’s back view and reminded once more, “There’s a high chance that a Blood Vine Half-Martial Ancestor is guarding Six Stars Mountain. You have to be careful!”
Su Zimo’s movement technique was extremely fast and he disappeared from the monks’ line of sight in the blink of an eye.
“Elder, what’s the use of reminding him?”
A Conjoint Body monk said, “Desolate Martial is obstinate and egoistic. His personality is persistent and can’t differentiate between good and evil. Since he insists on courting death, we’ve already done our best to explain both sides of the situation to him. Why should we have to persuade him insistently?”
“That’s right. Even if you persuade him out of goodwill, he might not reciprocate,”
Another monk added.
Elder Hui Xing frowned and turned around. He looked at the two monks who spoke earlier on and said in a deep voice, “Don’t forget, he’s Desolate Martial! Desolate Martial who established the Martial Dao and brought blessings to the masses!”
“That merit can be passed down through history and affect the world. Even ancient Emperors can’t compare to it!”
“We should already feel guilty for not helping him. How can you guys have the cheek to say something like that?!”
Elder Hui Xing was in charge of discipline and had always been stern.
Although he was suppressed by Desolate Martial earlier on, he was still a fearsome presence in Dapamkara Monastery. The two monks lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything.
“The two of you, reflect on your mistakes against an empty wall and copy the Heart Sutra 10,000 times!”
Elder Hui Xing said in a deep voice, “Not even a single time less!”
“Yes!”
The two monks did not dare to argue and acknowledged their mistakes before scurrying away.
“Sigh,”
Elder Hui Xing looked in the direction Su Zimo left and sighed. “I hope that the heavens will bless him.”
…
After leaving Dapamkara Monastery, Su Zimo took out a map and determined his direction before heading towards Southern Duel Sect.
In truth, this Green Lotus True Body of his was the one that was truly in danger against the Killing Badge of the Primordial Six Races.
He had three true bodies.
Right now, the Dragon Phoenix True Body was in the Ancestral Dragon Ground. Unless the Primordial Six Races joined forces and attacked the Dragon Bone Valley, the Dragon Phoenix True Body would not be in any danger.
As for the Martial Dao True Body, it was outside the Three Realms and was not in the five elements—not many people knew of its existence.
Furthermore, his Martial Dao True Body was hidden in Ping Yang Town and cultivated in seclusion—it was difficult for the Primordial Six Races to look for him.
However, it was different for the Green Lotus True Body.
If the Green Lotus True Body were to travel through Tianhuang Mainland, he would definitely leave behind various traces and it would be easy to be exposed.
At that time, experts of the primordial races would definitely hunt him down!
If his opponents were at the Conjoint Body realm, it would be fine. However, things would be troublesome if they were Half-Martial Ancestors of the primordial races.
The Green Lotus True Body had just entered the Conjoint Body realm and could suppress human Half-Martial Ancestors. However, the outcome of a fight against a primordial race Half-Martial Ancestor was unpredictable.
Teng Lingzi of the Blood Vine race was already troublesome to deal with.
If there were truly Blood Vine Half-Martial Ancestors on Six Stars Mountain of Southern Duel Sect, there would indeed be quite a bit of danger for this trip.
Of course, no matter what, Su Zimo had to check things out at Southern Duel Sect!
In his opinion, the reason why the Blood Vine race destroyed Southern Duel Sect and occupied Six Stars Mountain was not merely because of the birth of the Ashoka Wood.
The Ashoka Wood might just be an opportunity.
In this generation, the primordial races were restless and had signs of activity.
Back in Myriad Phenomenon City, the appearance of the Rakshasa and God race was the beginning.
Later on, the calamity of the Witch Gu of the North Region.
The battle at Heaven and Earth Valley of the Middle Continent.
In fact, even that battle at Penglai Island!
At that time, Su Zimo merely instinctively thought that Penglai Island and the Golden Crow race had joined forces to set a trap to kill him.
However, upon further thought, there was a possibility.
Penglai Island was already controlled by the Golden Crow race!
According to Elder Hui Xing, not every super sect had an Emperor backing them.
Without Emperors, even Mahayana Patriarchs won’t be able to defend against the primordial races!
The outcome of Fahua and Daming Monasteries of the North Region 10,000 years ago was clear.
Even with the Dharma Emperor around, they were destroyed by an Ancestor realm dragon!
The gap between them was obvious.
If Su Zimo’s deduction was not wrong, there was a high chance that the actions of the primordial races would only increase in the future!
The primordial races would definitely not be willing to live an ignoble existence.
When the Patriarchs or even Emperors of the primordial races walked out, the situation of Tianhuang Mainland would change completely!
