Chapter 402 - The Sky-devouring Evil Remnant (1/2)
In the small alley, Ou Yangming grinned, but his eyes were ice-cold and unperturbed.
He seemed to have entered a realm free from desires when he stared at the unknown elder in front of him, such that n.o.body could perceive anything from his eyes. The young fellow’s 99 points of mental power formed an invisible wall, which blocked every external power away from him.
The unusual look in the elder’s eyes slowly faded away after a long time, and remarked with a nod, “Not bad, you’ve indeed acquired my master’s inheritance. Congratulations.”
Ou Yangming smiled faintly and looked like his mind was elsewhere.
“Please forgive me for asking this out of curiosity-how did you gain Master’s power?”. The elder asked after some thought.
Ou Yangming pondered for some time, but instead of answering the elder, he asked him in return, “Did you bring this power to our world?”
“That’s right. If it wasn’t because I descended to this world, hehe, based on this world’s level of power, how can it accommodate Master’s power?” The elder answered proudly.
“Oh, so were you the one who brought the Fire-absorbing Badges too?”
“Yes.” The elder did not plan to keep it a secret. “I chose a Supreme Great Ancestor among the Humans in this world to distribute 9 Fire-absorbing Badges so that he can collect deadly powers, but only half of them achieved the goal.
Ou Yangming’s eyes finally moved a little because he found out the Fire-absorbing Badges’ origin.
It turned out that there was a hidden powerful figure behind them.
“Are there others like you in our world?”
The elder responded after a moment of hesitation, “A junior brother of mine crossed the s.p.a.ce with me but there was a small mishap during the process, so we were separated, and I have no idea where he is. Our target is this world, but seeing as how he got lost when he crossed the s.p.a.ce, he likely ended up in a grim situation.”
Ou Yangming nodded but began to make sense of something The elder’s junior brother had not truly died, but he lost his physical body when he crossed the s.p.a.ce. In the end, his soul entered a Yang Grade powerhouse’s body by mistake.
Unfortunately, that person came across Ou Yangming, causing his body and soul to be destroyed in the end.
“I won’t force you if you don’t want to let me know, but since you received Master’s power, we’re a family from now on,” the elder noted in a deep voice.
“I’m extremely curious about something-why are the items known as Fire-absorbing Badges?” Ou Yangming curled his lips into a smile.
The elder furrowed his eyebrows and had an even more sinister look on his face. He was displeased because Ou Yangming refused to answer his question, but he forced himself to hold back his anger and explained, “Because Master has a formidable enemy who’s adept in the fire mastery power, so I named the badges like that.”
Ou Yangming’s eyelids twitched, he nodded and was deep in thoughts. “You’re a cultivator in this realm, but given that you obtained Master’s power, you have a promising future and can’t stay here forever,” the elder added.
“Are you hoping that I’ll go beyond Heaven?” Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “Go beyond Heaven?” The elder was dazed for a while before he stated with a laugh, “I suppose it’s indeed an act of breaking out of this world for natives like you.”
Ou Yangming asked, “You have the way to do that?”
“Of course.” The elder sounded confident and proud. “Given Master’s power, it’s a piece of cake for him to break this world’s barrier. In fact, this world can be easily destroyed too.”
‘Destroy this world?’ Ou Yangming felt a chill in his heart.
‘Is that Sky-devouring Devil G.o.d’s power that remarkable?’
“Now, we need to create ma.s.sacres because Master’s power will be perfected as more living beings die.” The elder said fervently, “The war between the Humans and the Beasts is the best opportunity for Master to upgrade his power; even G.o.d’s helping us.”
Ou Yangming looked up and asked, “What do you plan to do?”
“I’ll break the walls for the Beasts to enter the city. That’s the only way to create a greater slaughter.” The elder had a strange look in his eyes.
“Are you helping the Beasts to kill the Humans?” Ou Yangming’s face darkened.
“You’re wrong. I’m only creating more deadly auras because as long as more living beings die, regardless if they’re the Beasts of the Humans, we’ll benefit from it,” the elder explained leisurely.
“Oh, why would you break the walls then? Aren’t you providing a better condition for the Beasts?”
The elder smirked. “This is only one of the Humans’ big cities, so it won’t be a big deal even if it’s wiped out. Hehe, I want the Beasts to flood the city and cause endless annihilation, then I’ll kill the beast king and use its vigor to leave this world by breaking the barrier.”
“Boom…”
