Becoming Immortal in One Step - C99
After an unknown period of time, an old man asked, “Are you sure about his identity? “He really has the Buddhist Sangha?”
Yang Lin said, “No, the Underworld Sect won’t reveal any information regarding the traitor, but can you imagine, other than the Buddhist Sect’s Divine Veins, who else can use the Buddhist sacred art?”
“This old man thinks it’s very strange. The God Realm no longer has the site of the buddhist faith. Where did he learn the buddhist arts from?”
“Do not underestimate the power of the Divine Veins. Every Divine Vein has its own inheritance. People with Divine Veins do not need a master at all.”
“However, they have never appeared before. Furthermore, they are all so young and their strength is not high either.”
“Perhaps, they are not people from the God Realm. Do you still remember the Immortal Transformation that happened back then?”
“You’re saying …” Everyone’s face changed yet again.
The Immortal Transformation was actually when the Immortal World was collapsing. Du Xuan used the Time and Space Laws to transfer the surviving Immortals to the God Realm. This mana, which could transfer millions of people in a single time, was called the masterpiece of the Heavenly Dao.
Not long after, the immortals began fighting with the deities, resulting in the creation of the Celestial domain and the Immortal-ranked powers.
That war was called the Immortal Transformation.
If they couldn’t find anyone, no matter how much they guessed, it would be futile. Although they had the strength of the Da Lou Realm, in the God Realm, they could only be considered to be the middle or lower class experts.
They did not dare to enter the death trap, but they could consider entering the lake.
In the next half month, these people tricked a lot of cultivators who wanted to make a fortune into the lake, but without exception, they became the python’s food.
For the last time, the python seemed irritated by the constant harassment and rushed out of the lake to slaughter.
On that day, sand flew and rocks flew. Tens of thousands of cultivators struggled to escape, the thousand foot long giant python swept its tail across the sky, split the mountains and split the rocks as poisonous smoke drifted about, and hundreds of bones disintegrated into dust.
One year later —
The mud at the bottom of the lake suddenly moved and a black shadow shot up.
Perhaps it was due to the Divine Veins having gone through a round of evolution, Lei Ao only needed a year to completely refine the seven heavenly thunder strikes.
The current him had already officially stepped into the Cloud Bridge realm. Even without the Divine Veins, he still had the strength of the Cloud Bridge Second Heavenly Layer. After activating the Divine Veins, he could probably reach the Fifth Heavenly Layer.
This was the advantage of a Divine Vein, but it was only obvious in the early stages. After the realm of the Great Luo, even if one had Divine Veins, their strength would at most increase by two levels.
Otherwise, the God Realm wouldn’t have added another Da Lou Realm warrior between the Cloud Bridge and the Saint Ruler Realms. One could imagine how difficult it was to raise one’s strength after the Cloud Bridge Realm.
When Lei Ao came out of seclusion, the giant python did not appear. However, Lei Ao could feel a powerful aura secretly watching him.
After a year of peace and quiet, there was no need to provoke any trouble now. Lei Ao didn’t stay in the water for long. He gave a token thanks and quickly left the big lake.
The first thing he did after coming out was to return back to the place where he did not go into closed door cultivation and did not attract the attention of his enemies. Lei Ao wanted to know if he was safe or not.
Halfway there, Lei Ao sensed that someone was following him, so he jumped into a forest and shouted, “Get out here!”
His voice echoed in the forest, but no one replied.
Lei Ao sneered, “Do you still want me to invite you? Or are you confident that you can move faster than me? ”
After he had finished, he flicked his finger and a gust of wind shot towards a big tree behind him, piercing a small hole through it.
At the same time, a black figure shot up into the sky, but it didn’t escape. Instead, it landed not far away from Lei Ao.
“He is indeed a traitor. He is really alert.”
“Heh, the Cloud Bridge’s 5th Heavenly Layer. No wonder you dare to follow me alone.” With a cold glance, Lei Ao saw through his opponent’s strength.
“I heard that you only have the strength of the ninth heaven of the Azure Sea. It seems like you can’t trust rumors. I’m not here to spar with you. I’m just here to pass on the message.”
The stalker was a middle-aged man with a very ordinary appearance. He didn’t panic when facing Lei Ao, probably because he was confident in his own strength and was very calm.
“A message?” Lei Ao’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he was not going to stop?
“Yes, we have your friend. If you want to save her, then go alone to the Sendai camp within three days.”
“Fuck, who are you trying to trick? This young master has more than ten million friends, but you think I will believe you just because you said it? ”
“Whether she comes or not is up to you. However, she is dead for sure.” The middle-aged man took out a pearl and activated it, causing it to reflect the scene before him.
How could it be her?!
Lei Ao was secretly shocked. It was not that the prisoner was not careful, but Chen Shuang. At this moment, her shoulders were locked by a nail magic treasure, as if her power had been sealed. Her expression was unspeakably dispirited.
“To arrive at the Immortal-ranked camp in three days, do you think that this young master has grown wings?”
“I’m just passing the message. It’s up to you whether you want to come or not.” The middle-aged man laughed.
“Cut the crap. I’ll definitely go within ten days. If I can’t see anyone, I’ll definitely wash away the immortal foundation with blood in the future.” As Lei Ao spoke, his eyes were filled with killing intent.
This brat wasn’t joking. The middle-aged man’s heart trembled as he said, “I will carry your words back. At the very least, whether or not they will wait is not up to me.”
With that, the man flew away.
In that instant, it was as if he was facing a god of death, completely suppressed by his opponent in terms of his aura. It was laughable that he was still at the 5th Heavenly Layer of the Cloud Bridge.
After the middle-aged man left, Lei Ao circled around the forest. After confirming that there was no one following him, he returned to the place where he did not go into seclusion.
There were no traces of the cave opening, and he continued to sit in the cave and accept the inheritance.
Lei Ao relaxed a bit, but after calming down, he started to think about Chen Shuang’s matter.
He could not understand how Chen Shuang had leaked the information. He was also wearing a mask. Other than that giant python, he had never met a Saint Ruler before.
As such, his chances of being seen through were low, and every time he came into contact with Chen Shuang, he would use a long-distance voice transmission to converse with her.
Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be any flaws.
But now, Chen Shuang was caught. From her appearance, it was obvious that she had been scolded before. With regards to this, Lei Ao only felt a great deal of anger.
Although Chen Shuang was from the God Realm, Lei Ao had always treated her as a friend. If she had insisted on fighting that time, even if they didn’t join hands, they wouldn’t have been Chen Shuang’s match.
Later on, Chen Shuang had secretly helped him out time and time again. This debt of gratitude definitely could not be dispersed by the wind.
Not to mention, Lei Ao had long since promised her that if Chen Shuang faced a crisis one day, Lei Ao would not let her die without a trace of mercy.
The promise he made must be kept. This was the goal of Lei Kuangshi.
Of those who knew the relationship between the two, besides Lei Ao and Chen Shuang, there was only one other person. The rest had already been slaughtered.
However, if he didn’t stop in his closed door cultivation and didn’t stop, he wouldn’t take the initiative to tell others. Who would know?
Lei Ao thought for a while, and finally a name appeared in his mind.
The Gates of Hell!
The sect that he had the most contact with was this mysterious sect, and last time, he even asked a lot of questions about the underworld clans.
If the other party wasn’t too stupid, he should be able to deduce the relationship between him and the underworld clans. In addition to the rumors in the Twin Realms Mountain, the person in front of everyone was indeed wearing a mask.
Mask… He had bought it from the Underworld Sect.
Didn’t they say they didn’t want to provoke an underworld clan? What had changed their minds? Could it be that the bounty offered by the two powers was so high that it would destroy their own reputation?
It seemed that only by meeting Chen Shuang would he be able to understand this situation.
The Immortal Tai Camp was the base camp of the powers in the Twin Realms Mountain. Perhaps ten days later, there wouldn’t be only people waiting for him.
If he was surrounded, he might have a chance to escape. If he brought along Chen Shuang who had lost her power, it would be hopeless.
However, Lei Ao had never thought of not saving her. Even if it meant certain death, he would still give it a shot.
He would leave some words in the cave and then head to the Sendai camp by himself.
On the way, he kept thinking of ways to save people and ensure their safe escape, but none of them worked.
In that area of the Immortal Tai Camp, there were no ferocious beasts roaming about for a thousand miles around. It was a safe zone, but to Lei Ao, it was like a dragon’s lagoon or tiger’s den.
On the seventh day, he had already reached the immortal camp and concealed his aura to observe from the side.
Other than a few low-level cultivators who were on guard, he did not see any cultivators above the Da Lou Realm.
Inside the camp building, it was as if there was some kind of enchantment. His spiritual sense did not dare to force its way in, but the surrounding area was inexplicably calm.
