Chapter 344 - My Patience’s Wearing Thin
Chen Ming turned to his immortal ranked robes, But this is a top immortal armor!
Changing the apparel of such an item was but two hours of Chen Ming’s time.
And with Zhuo Qingyao’s help for his hairdo, Chen Ming was now much much more comfortable.
He chose to forsake the smiley mask, Or they might take me as having something to do with Crown Prince Star Dragon.
Feng Lu paid him another visit, “Sire, the feast must be teeming with danger. Wouldn’t it be better to not go?”
Chen Ming nodded, “I see. Then I won’t go!”
He flicked his sleeve and was gone up the mountain.
Feng Lu: ...
Seriously!? I just said it in passing and bro won’t go?
Not going had to do with Chen Ming’s thinking, Feng Lu takes me for an immortal, one that hides his cultivation. But when it comes to fighting, I have an immortal’s power!
Immortal strength at Dao Comprehending realm, that’s the same as saying I have some connection with Crown Prince Star Dragon!
Better to stay low and out of sight.
Chen Ming didn’t really not go. He just waited for Feng Lu to leave and took to his crow form, settling to flying over at the feast and perching on a tree outside.
The flying left him somewhat exhausted.
He peered his eyes over the courtyard.
There were around twenty immortals, with a seventy-eighty years old man leading them. He reckoned this Daoist’s age had to be above a thousand.
Earth Immortal had 2000 years lifespan while Celestial Immortal had 3000.
It wasn’t that big of a difference.
But Gold Immortal had it even higher, at 5000.
Old Daoist Zi Yang poured himself some tea and took a sip, then turned to the newcomer, “Abbot Feng Lu, didn’t Yan Mountain say they want to repel the beast tide with us? Why haven’t they come to discuss such an important matter?”
An Earth Immortal at the side added, “Yeah, abbot Feng Lu, this is a serious matter and it can’t be delayed. You want your entire disciples blown in the wind and let a joss tick burn for a millennia to carry your legacy?”
What could Feng Lu do? He asked but he didn’t come.
“Yan Mountain has been in charge of Obsidian Star and many other stars in repelling this danger. It is unable to attend to so many matters.”
Zi Yang asked after a pause, “If only we knew the path to immortality leading to Yan Mountain. We would pay him a visit if he’s so busy.”
“This monk doesn’t lie, but you want to visit someone’s star without so much as a notice? Isn’t that inappropriate?”
Zi Yang was annoyed, “Abbot Feng Lu, the time is critical. We don’t have the luxury to mind the details!”
“It is the first path to immortality you meet when entering the savage beasts’ lands.”
Zi Yang rose, as did eleven immortals behind him, and left together.
They only discussed through sound transmission on their way, preventing Chen Ming from eavesdropping. He went ahead and stood at the entrance to Expansion Star after sending the disciples standing guard back to Yan Mountain, to avoid any mishaps if Purple Sun Pill Pavilion was to act.
Chen Ming stood there for but a moment before Zi Yang and his immortals arrived. The old Daoist only saw a Dao Comprehending realm Daoist.
Zi Yang asked, “Little Daoist, does this path lead to Yan Mountain?”
Chen Ming showed sock and awe, “That’s not possible! This path takes you to the star of savage beasts. Just who pointed you the way?”
Zi Yang spoke without a trace of change, “I was only asking. Then which path leads to Yan Mountain?”
Chen Ming pointed to the one leading to the savage beasts’ star, “Take that one, walk thirty thousand li and you’re there!”
Zi Yang and the immortals exchanged glances, “Everyone, what do you think?”
An Earth Immortal said, “Daoist Zi Yang, we aren’t familiar with this place and we need to be sure about this. After all, we are trying to keep things quiet.”
Another said, “Yeah, Daoist Zi Yang. If we rush into battle, it will attract the Heavenly Court’s questioning. We can’t mess with them!”
Zi Yang thought for a second, “Here’s what we’ll do. Zi Tang, Zi Ming, you two will go with the little Daoist to take a look. We will wait for you at Obsidian Temple for the news. Yan Mountain’s strength is greater then we thought and I need to call for help.”
The purple-robed Earth Immortals bowed, “Yes, Pavilion Master!”
They two took Chen Ming where he pointed while Zi Yang took the rest back to Obsidian Temple.
Chen Ming heard most of their talk. They came to attack Yan Mountain. Then there’s nothing more to talk about. Since they started then I might as well end it, killing them to the last one!
And they were about to call for backup. Chen Ming had his hand full with ten immortals, not to mention more.
The two Earth Immortals flew with Chen Ming until he felt he was ten thousand li in. Might as well do it earlier. They won’t find out anyway.
“No need to fly, this is good enough.”
The two landed, “Good for what?”
Chen Ming snickered, “The Fengshui in this place is not bad, it suits you.”
Chen Ming pressed on an Earth Immortal’s shoulder and attacked while activating the double speed of the black saber. Let’s just go with Two Year Cicada.
He unleashed Ten Thousand Swords Become One along with it!
The blade skewered the Earth Immortal’s abdomen. His mouth filled with blood and eyes widened in shock. But Chen Ming didn’t stop, it wasn’t enough to kill an immortal.
A black light flashed again and again as he made countless new holes next to the first one.
With his hand bloodied, he turned to the other one, Zi Ming, “What did you come here to do?”
Zi Ming was an immortal but this scene robbed him of awareness.
Zi Tang was on the ground, reaching with his arm, “Zi Ming, don’t tell him. He must be Chen Ming!”
Chen Ming flicked Two Year Cicada and stabbed his skull, leaving a cross mark. Chen Ming turned again to the pale Zi Ming, “Now let me ask you. What did you come here to do? Of course, you have the right to remain silent until the end. Oh, right, this is the end.”
“Make your choice, my patience’s wearing thin.”
