Chapter 2289 - 2289 Place of Death
2289 Place of Death
Even though Tianhuang Sect was growing stronger by the day, it was difficult to break through its upper limit. Without a Perfected Immortal presiding over things, no matter how much territory it annexed or how many disciples it had, it would still be a black-grade sect.
For the past thousand years, the Martial Dao Prime Body had never stopped deducing the Dharmic formulation of the Martial Dao.
The many cultivation techniques and secret skills sent over by the Green Lotus True Body, such as the Prajna Nirvana Sutra which was a Taboo Mystic Classic, were of great help to him and he comprehended them.
However, he still had a long way to go before he could deduce the next step of cultivation.
In that thousand years, although Tianhuang Sect was established and expanded continuously, the Martial Dao Prime Body did not meet any other old friends of Tianhuang Mainland.
The Martial Dao Prime Body was not surprised about that.
The Fiend Domain was ranked alongside the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain and was vast.
The Green Lotus True Body had ascended for many years but he had only met an old friend who came from Tianhuang Mainland hundreds of thousands of years ago. The Martial Dao Prime Body was in a corner of the Fiend Domain—it was not so easy to meet old friends.
All these years, the Martial Dao Prime Body had not expended any cultivation resources and his cultivation realm had not advanced at all. He was still at the perfected Level 9 Fate Ring realm.
For the current Martial Dao Prime Body, Essence Spirit Stones and Essence Spirit Liquid were useless.
Without the Dharmic formulation for the next step of cultivation, no amount of cultivation resources would be of any help to him.
As for Heavenly Wolf, his cultivation realm advanced by leaps and bounds with the help of his previous life’s memories and a large number of cultivation resources!
Actually, in a sense, Heavenly Wolf could be considered as a reincarnated immortal and was even stronger than Immortal Tai Hua and Feng Yin!
In their previous lives, Tai Hua and Feng Yin were only Perfected Immortals.
As for Heavenly Wolf, he was the Seven Emotions Fiend King in his previous life and had once followed Emperor Bo Xun. In terms of experience, be it for cultivation or general matters, he was far superior to others!
With a secret skill, Heavenly Wolf improved the body of this Moon Devouring Heavenly Wolf by a few levels—he had practically undergone a complete transformation!
A thousand years ago, the Moon Devouring Heavenly Wolf was only a Grade 9 Black Immortal.
But now, his cultivation realm had already broken through to the Heaven Essence realm!
Even Yun Ting could not match such a cultivation speed!
As for Yan Beichen, he had the Hatred Sutra as a foundation and the hatred in his heart was strong. It had already seeped into his bones and his cultivation realm advanced by leaps and bounds after cultivating the Fiend Obsession Sutra.
Of course, although Yan Beichen’s cultivation increased rapidly, he could not compare to Heavenly Wolf who had the memories of his previous life.
In a thousand years, Yan Beichen had already cultivated to become a Grade 9 Earth Immortal.
That cultivation speed was extremely terrifying as well!
Many fiend techniques were unorthodox and allowed users to cultivate at an extremely fast speed. However, the accompanying backlash was extremely obvious as well.
Back when Yan Beichen cultivated the Fiend Obsession Sutra, it was because his Essence Spirit was severely injured and was almost at the end of its road. Even the Martial Dao Prime Body was helpless.
The only way to save his life was to cultivate the Fiend Obsession Sutra.
Back then, Heavenly Wolf had once said that cultivating the Fiend Obsession Sutra would only suppress Yan Beichen’s Essence Spirit injuries temporarily and ease them.
If anything unexpected happened, history would repeat itself in the future.
For the past thousand years, while Tianhuang Sect grew, it was also searching for healing immortal herbs that could heal the Essence Spirit.
However, such immortal herbs were way too precious. Even in other parts of the Fiend Domain or some massive sect or faction, they might not be able to find it, let alone this remote corner of the Fiend Domain.
This day, the Martial Dao Prime Body was in seclusion when the sound of clothes fluttering could be heard from outside—the intruder was extremely fast!
“Master!”
Heavenly Wolf’s voice sounded.
The Martial Dao Prime Body’s heart sank. He could tell that there was something unusual in Heavenly Wolf’s voice and understood that something major might have happened. He opened his eyes and broke out of seclusion.
“What’s going on?”
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked bluntly.
“Yan Beichen can’t take it anymore.”
Heavenly Wolf shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.
At this cultivation realm, he could transform into a human.
Right now, the person standing in front of Su Zimo was a burly man with short silver hair and a ferocious expression.
Heavenly Wolf did not have much feelings for Yan Beichen. However, he knew that the Martial Dao Prime Body had a deep relationship with Yan Beichen and he could not hide this matter.
“His Essence Spirit injuries?”
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.
Heavenly Wolf nodded and said, “I’ve already said that cultivating the Fiend Obsession Sutra can only suppress his Essence Spirit injuries at most. It can’t be healed and can explode at any moment.”
“Previously, he was in seclusion cultivation and was prepared to break through the barrier of the Heaven Essence realm. Unexpectedly, he failed and his Essence Spirit injuries exploded. Even the obsession fiend qi could not suppress his injuries.”
“Where is he?”
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.
“The main hall of Tianhuang Sect.”
Heavenly Wolf replied.
Without saying anything, the Martial Dao Prime Body moved and headed for the main hall of Tianhuang Sect. Before long, he arrived outside.
In the hall, Yan Beichen leaned against a chair with a pale expression. His eyes were half-opened and his lifeforce was weak—it was clear that he was at the end of his road.
Apart from him, there were seven other Heaven Immortal experts in the hall. There were men and women and their cultivation realms were extremely high—they were all at the level of Grade 8 or 9 Heaven Immortals!
When the Heaven Immortal experts saw the Martial Dao Prime Body arrive, they shuddered and stood up hurriedly.
They had heard of this person’s notorious reputation.
The seven of them knew that although Heavenly Wolf was in charge of Tianhuang Sect on the surface, the true master of Tianhuang Sect was the mysterious purple-robed man with the silver mask!
The Martial Dao Prime Body arrived before Yan Beichen and released his spirit consciousness to scan the latter’s body. He frowned beneath the silver mask with a grim expression.
Yan Beichen was in an extremely bad condition.
To be precise, if not for the obsession fiend qi cultivated from the Fiend Obsession Sutra to maintain the remnant lifeforce in Yan Beichen’s body, he would have died a long time ago!
“You’re here.”
As though he sensed something, Yan Beichen tried his best to open his eyes. He glanced at Su Zimo and his lips twitched as he forced a smile.
“Oo, Oo!”
In his embrace, the white sable whimpered softly in extreme sadness.
“I can’t hold on any longer and can’t fight with you anymore. You’ll have to walk down this path alone in the future.” Yan Beichen said with difficulty.
He had to rest a few times in between just to say that sentence.
“Brother Yan, there must be a way to save you!”
The Martial Dao Prime Body turned to Heavenly Wolf and asked, “You once said that the complete cultivation technique that Emperor Bo Xun cultivated is the Fiend Obsession Buddha Karmic Sutra. If we find the other Buddha Karma Sutra, won’t we be able to save his life?”
“There’s indeed hope, but…”
Heavenly Wolf had a troubled expression and paused for a moment before saying, “The reason why Emperor Bo Xun imparted the Fiend Obsession Sutra to me was so that I could control the Mara Mask. Only obsession can sever the seven emotions. However, I don’t know the Buddha Karmic Sutra at all.”
“You don’t, but Emperor Bo Xun definitely does.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body said blandly.
“However, Emperor Bo Xun has already died for many years.”
Heavenly Wolf said, “Furthermore, he doesn’t have any disciples at all. It’s impossible for anyone in this world to understand the complete Fiend Obsession Buddha Karmic Sutra.”
“You said that Emperor Bo Xun died in the Pure Land of Bliss?”
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked again.
“That’s right.”
Heavenly Wolf nodded. Thereafter, as though he recalled something, a look of fear flashed through his eyes as he asked with a trembling voice, “Y-You’re not thinking of going to the place where Emperor Bo Xun died to look for the Fiend Obsession Buddha Karmic Sutra, right?”
“That’s the only place where I can find the complete cultivation technique.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body said in a deep voice.
“C-Crazy!”
Heavenly Wolf shook his head repeatedly. “That’s impossible! There’s no way we can get to that place at all!”
“Where did he die?”
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked again with a burning gaze.
“In…”
Heavenly Wolf hesitated for a long time before saying slowly, “Avici!”
