Chapter 987: The Immemorial Heavenly Serpent

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

With his current power, Mo Wen could finally unleash some of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear’s essence. As a spiritual treasure, it could even kill Supreme Profundity Realm cultivators when it was completely unleashed.

Although the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear was only an ordinary spiritual treasure in terms of rank, Mo Wen discovered that the most essential part of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear was not the spiritual treasure itself, but the additional power from the Immemorial Heavenly Serpent Divine Spirit.

The Immemorial Heavenly Serpent was a legendary divine beast. In terms of ability, some ordinary Ancient Age Divine Dragons and Heavenly Phoenixes were probably not as powerful as the Immemorial Heavenly Serpent was. Legend had it that the Immemorial Heavenly Serpent was born from the Nine Heavenly Thunders and wielded the power of the Heavenly Path of Thunder. Once the Heavenly Serpent was enraged, thunder and lightning would destroy the world. Even the immortals of the Immemorial Age did not dare to attack the Heavenly Serpent head-on.

Later, Mo Wen also discovered that the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear nurtured some residue soul of the Immemorial Heavenly Serpent. Although it was just a residue soul, it was very valuable. Even a thousand spiritual treasures could not compare to it.

Utilizing the essence of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear was not done by activating the lightning power of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear itself, but by activating the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spirit hidden within the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear.

It was only now that Mo Wen could finally activate some of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spirit’s power.

The lightning that came from the Heavenly Serpent split the space. It was as though the Immemorial Heavenly Serpent had resurrected and was roaring to the heavens.

Rumble!

The fire cloud that had been heading straight for Mo Wen instantly shattered. A huge silhouette suddenly began to tremble inside what remained of the cloud. Then, as though struck by lightning, its body shook violently. Cracks appeared on the firey-red armor that covered its body. The cracks grew larger and larger, and lightning continuously crackled within them.

A hundred miles away, a single blow injured the Lie Ban Tribe Chief. By the time he had grasped what was going on, he was already severely injured.

Mo Wen flew up into the sky. The Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear in his hand grew bigger. In an instant, it had become hundreds of miles long. Mo Wen grasped the spear’s shaft which was of normal proportions. However, the further forwards he swung it, the larger the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear grew. It kept extending until the utmost tip of the spear was the size of a mountain.

Bang!

Mo Wen swung the spear, gently bringing it forwards. There was a terrifying explosion in the air, as though a big mountain had moved faster than the speed of light. The air was instantly pushed until it was compressed to its limit. A storm swept up in the surroundings of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear. Even a few smaller mountains were sent flying.

Chief Bazzle of the Lie Ban Tribe stared straight ahead in shock, his eyes open wide. He coulnd’t believe what he was seeing. What kind of monster had he encountered?

Rumble!

Without having even a second to react, Bazzle was sent flying. His figure formed a parabolic curve, and he traveled hundreds of miles and penetrated dozens of large mountains before coming to a stop.

Mo Wen moved step by step through the air. He covered dozens of miles in one step. After a short while, he had walked up to the mountain peak that Bazzle had fallen on. Mo Wen lowered his head and looked down.

Bazzle’s figure, which was more than a hundred feet tall, was embedded into the mountain. Hot sparks flew off his body, melting the surrounding rock and turning it into magma. In a short while, it had formed a small lake of magma.

“So you are the chief of the Lie Ban Tribe,” Mo Wen said. He was still standing in mid-air, looking down from above.

…

In Lie Ban City, everyone was wide-eyed. They were all wearing expressions of disbelief. They could hardly believe what their eyes were seeing. Their dignified chief, the strongest practitioner in the tribe, had been unable to withstand one hit from the human youth and had been sent flying for hundreds of miles.

Also, what sort of creature was the Heavenly Serpent that was hovering above them? Its aura was frightening. Its aura was practically a heavenly force in the eyes of their foreign clan. Even their souls were all trembling fiercely. Most of the ordinary living creatures in the city knelt straight down onto the ground, prostrating themselves as they trembled because they could not withstand the terror and suppression that came from their souls.

Just based on its aura, this creature was already so frightening. They had never encountered such a thing before.

During the Ancient Age, the hundred tribes flourished, and each clan was extremely prosperous. However, the races of the Ancient Age were more or less related to the living creatures of the Immemorial Age. Their bloodlines could mostly be traced back to living creatures from the Immemorial Age. The Immemorial Heavenly Serpent was at the pinnacle of the pyramid of the Immemorial Age food chain. The terror they felt and the suppression of their bloodlines made them exceptionally afraid of the Immemorial Heavenly Serpent’s aura.

“It’s so frightening!”

Halina was completely stunned and was frozen to the spot. Even the chief was no match for Mo Wen. Who else in the entire Lie Ban Tribe could hold off this human preliminary cultivator?

Unlike the terror felt by the rest of the Lie Ban Tribe, Sa’anqi was completely awestruck. This young human was actually incredibly powerful! Was he truly a preliminary cultivator?

…

Mo Wen condescendingly looked down at the Lie Ban Tribe Chief.

“You…”

With difficulty, Bazzle crawled out from the magma pool. His armor was in tatters. Countless cracks could be seen on the once mighty and domineering armor, and blood was flowing out from the cracks. Due to the power of the lightning, the wounds could not be healed.

Bazzle had received a report from his underlings, saying that a human preliminary cultivator was wreaking havoc in Lie Ban City and was forcefully asking for Fire Leaving Stones. Bazzle was furious and rushed straight back. However, he had never imagined that this human preliminary cultivator would actually be so powerful. The cultivator was so powerful that it made even Bazzle’s heart tremble.

“Hand over three Fire Leaving Stones, and I will leave immediately. I will not kill any innocent people. You also know that the stones only bring a preliminary cultivator like me benefits. If you give them to me, I will not harm foreign clans like yours,” Mo Wen said.

Entering the preliminary ancient land was in itself an assessment of survival. The number of foreign clans they killed was translated into how powerful they were. The more they killed, the more they were welcomed by the Ancient Age Creation Sect. Of course, there was no exact standard on how many foreign clan criminals they had to kill. However, one thing the preliminary cultivators could be sure of was that the more foreign clans they killed in the preliminary ancient land, the lower the difficulty of the Nine Spirits Road would be for them later in the challenge.

The Nine Spirits Road was the only way to reach the Creation Pool. One could only enter the Creation Pool after venturing through the Nine Spirits Road. It could be said that the Nine Spirits Road was the last assessment in the Path of Creation. Nobody could predict what would happen in the Creation Pool. However, once one entered the Creation Pool, they would only receive benefits.

In the past, the disciples of the Ancient Age Creation Sect who came for assessment did not feel any guilt when they killed the foreign clans in the preliminary ancient land. The foreign clans who were imprisoned here were all great evils who had committed grievous offenses. Killing them was not only training to improve themselves, but they were also helping the Ancient Age Creation Sect by carrying out executions.

However, the Ancient Age Creation Sect had been eradicated tens of thousands of years ago. Right now, the foreign clans who were still living in the preliminary ancient land were no longer criminals. Instead, they were their descendants, and countless generations had passed.

No one was born guilty of a crime. If it was possible, Mo Wen did not want to kill too many people in the preliminary ancient land.

“Three Fire Leaving Stones!”

Bazzle’s facial expression was sullen beyond comparison. The Fire Leaving Stones were precious. This man had actually asked for three!. He was nothing more than a big bully.

“Even if you kill me, I don’t have three Fire Leaving Stones for you,” Bazzle snorted coldly. Even if he had, he would not hand them over. The members of the Flame Horn Clan were unreasonably obsessed with Fire Leaving Stones. More often than not, they would rather die than hand them over. This was also the reason why other clans found it hard to get any Fire Leaving Stones from the Flame Horn Clan.

“You value your life so lightly. Even a few stones are more valuable to you than life.” Mo Wen smiled. “However,” he said calmly, “do you think that you can hold on to the Fire Leaving Stones forever just because you are not afraid of death? You’re so naïve! If you are not willing to cooperate with me, I will kill you and search your body for the stones. If you don’t have them, I will kill all the leading members of the Lie Ban Tribe and search their bodies. If I still fail to find them, then I will kill all the peasants of the Lie Ban Tribe. If I have to, I will turn over your land in order to find the Fire Leaving Stones.”

“By that time, not only will you be dead, but your Lie Ban Tribe will also be eradicated. In the end, the Fire Leaving Stones will still be mine.”

Mo Wen was hugging himself, and his tone was casual. However, his words caused shivers to go down Bazzle’s spine.

“You… You are crazy. You have lost your humanity…” Bazzle had not expected that this human would be so evil. He was plotting to eradicate an entire race!

“I am crazy? Hehe, don’t forget that I am a preliminary cultivator from the outside world. My arrival here is a game of life or death. I am not here to discuss morality with you. Don’t tell me that you don’t want to kill me. There is no possibility of peace between you and me, and there never has been,” Mo Wen said.

As he had mentioned, he would receive benefits for killing foreign clans in the preliminary ancient land. Similarly, the foreign clans in the preliminary ancient land would also receive benefits for killing the human preliminary cultivators. This was what happened when Mo Wen first arrived. Sa’anqi attempted to kill Mo Wen the moment he discovered him. The human preliminary cultivators and the living creatures in the preliminary ancient land were like oil and water. It had always been a game of death where they killed each other.

“You are going too far! You are bullying the Lie Ban Tribe! Could it be that you are not afraid of our Flame Horn Clan or even the living creatures in the entire ancient land seeking revenge?” Bazzle growled. All this while, it had always been the foreign clans in the ancient land who were steering the wheel. He had never seen such a pompous human preliminary cultivator before.

“I will not say the same thing twice. If you are capable, feel free to seek revenge on me anytime. However, right now, my patience is limited. You better do as I say. If you force me to be cruel, not only will you lose your life and the Fire Leaving Stones, but I don’t mind taking away your other treasures too.”

Mo Wen had his hands behind his back. The Flame Horn Clan was a big clan. Naturally, they would have many treasures other than the Fire Leaving Stones. The main reason why the Flame Horn Clan was especially fond of the Fire Leaving Stones was that the clan was born with a natural affinity towards the fire attribute powers, and the Fire Leaving Stones were the purest crystallization of the essence of the sun.

The Fire Leaving Stones were indeed very useful for the Flame Horn Clan. However, since the foreign clans in the preliminary ancient land could not break through to the Tide Changing Realm, the biggest function of the Fire Leaving Stones was not utilized.

“Alright, human preliminary cultivator, you win. But I don’t have three Fire Leaving Stones. I only have two. Even if you eradicate the entire Lie Ban Tribe, you won’tt find a third Fire Leaving Stone.”

Bazzle finally accepted his fate and was forced to compromise. Otherwise, the Fire Leaving Stones would be in the hands of this human youth and the Lie Ban Tribe would suffer a horrible fate.

Three Fire Leaving Stones? Bazzle smiled wryly. It was not simple to obtain utmost treasures like the Fire Leaving Stones. Throughout their long history, the Flame Horn Clan had not accumulated many Fire Leaving Stones. The two Fire Leaving Stones that he had were heirlooms passed down by the ancestors of the Lie Ban Tribe.
