Chapter 570: Chapter 400: Hastening through splendid years, time brings the changes of the Mulberry_2
Down below.
Countless disciples from the Dominion Beast Sect were trembling, including Shangguan Xuan Yi and Feng Lin Er. At the moment, they felt as insignificant as tiny blades of grass within a storm, liable to be uprooted at any given moment.
In the end.
After a series of gasps.
A scrawny figure was sent flying. His white hair was disheveled, his clothing threadbare, smashing into the ground, making the earth crack all around.
It was the Supreme Elder of the Dominion Beast Sect, coughing up blood continuously, his vitality gradually dwindling, his face full of fear and terror.
Although the old man had almost stepped into the Immortal Realm, which far surpassed the average Supreme being in terms of strength, he was still miles away from becoming a true Immortal. Not to mention confrontation with Jiang Hui, even if he fully stepped into the Immortal Realm his situation would most likely not improve much.
Fortunately, Jiang Hui did not strike with lethal intent.
A subordinate considered a half-Immortal was somewhat useful to him or so he thought, but only if they obeyed his orders.
After suppressing the Supreme Elders, the subsequent affairs were undoubtedly much simpler.
All the disciples of the Dominion Beast Sect, initially expressing anger and resentment, now wore welcoming looks on their faces.
No one would willingly choose to rush towards their death.
The Supreme Elder of the Dominion Beast Sect was on the verge of cursing. This was supposed to be his territory and he was a former Sect Master, his protegé was the current Sect Master. Yet, before he knew it, the Dominion Beast Sect had undergone a complete makeover and now worked for someone else.
He felt he had failed his ancestors and their heritage. This vast heritage, he had failed to protect even a single part of it.
Subsequently, as if he couldn’t bear this blow, the Supreme Elder of the Dominion Beast Sect killed himself by self-detonation.
Jiang Hui found this rather regrettable.
Although the old man’s strength might not be considered strong, besides Incomplete Fairy and Meng Tian Zheng, he was among the strongest entities Jiang Hui had encountered.
“Young man, you’ve gone too far. This is not a place you should be. If you’re willing to leave immediately, I can act as if nothing happened. You are still young, there is no need to throw your life away for nothing.”
Just as the Supreme Elder of the Dominion Beast Sect committed suicide, behind the hills, amongst the dense graves, a cold and unstable voice echoed.
Straight after, a black shadow leisurely approached Jiang Hui.
His voice echoed, each word seemed to counsel Jiang Hui to leave immediately, yet as soon as he appeared, he was also quick to attack, decisive and resolute without hesitating.
“That looks like the founder of our Dominion Beast Sect!”
Some disciples recognized the identity of the black shadow.
Another fierce battle broke out.
Compared to the old man, the strength of this black shadow was surprisingly strong, apparently surpassing a true Immortal but still within the realm of a true Immortal. However, his strength far exceeded the average Immortal, and ultimately, he was suppressed by Jiang Hui at the top of a peak.
Jiang Hui panted heavily, his clothes soaked with sweat.
Although he won the battle, there had been many close calls. If he had made even the slightest mistake, it could have been him who died.
After a while, after regaining his breath and composing himself, a slight joy appeared on Jiang Hui’s face.
Because immediately after he killed the Black Shadow, the Golden Finger actually told him he gained Experience Points.
This news excited Jiang Hui greatly.
He didn’t expect that killing immortals in the Alien Territory could earn him Experience Points, and a considerable amount at that. This was like discovering a hen that laid golden eggs.
However, this route was something he couldn’t try too often yet.
This place was, after all, the Alien Territory, unlike Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. The three realms were only second to the Immortal Domain. With Jiang Hui’s strength, he could not yet earn fortune here. If he attracted the attention of immortals by being too eye-catching, it would not be profitable for him.
Therefore, he must wait until his strength has reached the Immortal King, a level where Immortal Kings reside, before he can set off on this path.
After gaining control of the Dominion Beast Sect, Jiang Hui did not stay here for long. Instead, he promoted Shangguan Xuan Yi to be the new Sect Master.
Compared to Feng Lin Er, the latter was undoubtedly more suitable.
He is a smart individual who knows what he should and should not do.
But, just to be cautious, he placed a trace of his spirit in the bodies of everyone just in case.
After these matters were settled.
Upon setting a coordinate for the Dominion Beast Sect’s location, Jiang Hui returned to Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Unexpectedly for him, time moved at a different pace in the two worlds. When he emerged, the entrance selection of the Heavenly’s God Academy had already ended, and Tu Wa Zi and others had all passed the examination.
However, it is worth mentioning.
Even though they joined the Heavenly God’s Academy, they were not obligated to be addressed as disciples of the Academy, an act of goodwill from Meng Tian Zheng towards Liu Village and Jiang Hui.
…
…
The dawn light faintly shone, the mountain wind blowing gently.
As the stars turned and time slipped away, unbeknownst to all, several years had passed hastily.
Flowers bloomed and wilts, and the river in front of the village had become wider. Wildflowers bloomed vibrantly, only to wither in the deep autumn.
Inside Liu Village.
Old man Lin still looked the same, his face full of kindness and amiability. He had become more pleasant to people, surrounded by his children and grandchildren, basking in their harmonious company.
This winter of the year.
A significant event happened in the village.
The Clan Leader of the Native Tribe passed away. On a dark, windy night, he departed peacefully in his sleep. When people found him, they even saw a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, seemingly content with his life in Liu Village.
He had suffered in his early years, but lived comfortably in his later years.
Although he had joined Liu Village, Old man Tu had not been fascinated by the Great Taoist in his life. Thus, he never pursued its cultivation and remained in the Blood Realm till his death.
Just being in the Blood Realm, which is just a little stronger than an average person and didn’t significantly influence the lifespan. However, thanks to the dense spiritual energy in Liu Village and other various spiritual wheat and treasure medicinal plants that could prolong life.
Even being just in the Blood Realm, Old man Tu impressively lived for more than one hundred and thirty years, which was quite astonishing.
The Liu Village at nightfall was fierce with the chill of late autumn, and the air was rippling with a cold that penetrated to the bone.
After a day and a night of full-speed craftwork.
Old man Tu’s coffin was finally made. Although it didn’t look luxurious, the material was first-class, which even if soaked in water for hundreds of years, would not rot and was even hard as steel. The successful completion was due to the assistance of a treasured tool.
The next day.
Near the Yellow Soil Fairy Grave on the hill behind Liu Village, a small grave mound had been added.
However, at the same time, only Jiang Hui could see what was happening.
An almost transparent shadow flashed by and was forcibly pulled onto the Underworld Bridge.
The cobblestone-paved Underworld Bridge exuded an ancient and primitive aura, its unique sense of weight indescribable. Thick green bricks, ancient cyan speech, with wisps of smoke rising from the foot of the mountain.
As the shadow landed, Jiang Hui heard a familiar voice – Old man Tu.
After his death, he did not leave Liu Village but was summoned to this Underworld Bridge.
Old man Tu’s expression was slightly stunned as he was still adjusting to the scenery in front of him. He looked around subconsciously and unintentionally noticed Jiang Hui’s presence. His expression immediately changed to one of respect, and he asked something that rendered Jiang Hui speechless: “Lord Willow God, have you also met with a natural end?!”
Old man Tu felt that he must be in the world after death, but why was Lord Willow God also here? Combining his own experiences, he subconsciously came to a rather undesirable conclusion.
“I am immortal, death and life are already meaningless to me!”
“The place you are in is still Liu Village. The bridge under your feet is the Underworld Bridge, under which your soul will never perish. When my power recovers, you will be reborn in the mortal world!”
“I once said, even if you die, I have ways to bring you back to life.” Jiang Hui’s voice echoed, seeming to penetrate the long passage of time and space.
Old man Tu was naturally grateful. Although he was lazy to practice, who wouldn’t want to live longer?
…
…
Months passed in a blink.
This day.
There came a sudden piece of good news, catching everyone unprepared.
Shi Hao was getting married.
Although there were some discrepancies due to the appearance of Jiang Hui and Liu Village, he still went to the Sin Continent, under the densely packed Fire Mulberry Tree that was like a shining star, to meet the girl he had been longing for.
At that time, the Fire Mulberry Flower was blooming, flying across the sky.
Years had passed, the little girl from his past had already grown up, still as breathtaking as ever.
After hearing the good news, the people of Liu Village naturally couldn’t ignore it. After a strong request from Old man Lin, the wedding ceremony was held in Liu Village.
At the same time, to celebrate, Old man Lin specifically asked Lin Zhuang to descend to the lower realm and bring the people of Stone Village up.
