Master of Untold Daos - Chapter 323
Chapter 323: You Are Now
The black clouds rumbled, casting darkness over the ground below, with a seldom bold of lightning here and there scattering light in this abyss.
Heavenly Tribulation’s power spread and spread, throwing the cultivators into disarray as they ran in every direction.
Baili Zhangqing stood in mid-air, laughing madly, “Two thousand years are more than enough to reach the Immortal realm! I always held back my progress to find the most fitting chance to do it. The time is ripe! Killing two Star Dragons and cutting the fiends’ rise is enough!”
Yan Shengxiao said, “Such abominable behavior. Jade Lake didn’t send Dao Comprehending realm cultivators but immortals!”
A fiend said, “This is a disaster! This damn Baili Zhangqing is Jade Lake’s relic!”
“I now understand the common saying in the cultivation world. Don’t mess with Jade Lake’s old men, or he might just break through the realms!”
Jade Lake’s side was overjoyed, “Ha-ha-ha, none of you can provoke us!”
“Consider yourself honored you’ve brought Baili Zhangqing to this state!”
“Our side now has an immortal. No one will take the inheritance from us. It’s all ours!”
Baili Zhangqing stepped in the sky, “This step shall mark my ascension!”
One step and he was in the Emergence stage.
Baili Zhangqing smiled as he took another step, “This shall mark my Chakra!”
Another step and he was in the Chakra stage.
He braved forward with laughter, “This shall lift me to Beneath Immortal!”
He was now a Beneath Immortal!
His face change, his hair darkened. It was as if he grew younger by the second, into a middle-aged man.
Baili Zhangqing said, “The Heavenly Tribulation shall herald my coming as an immortal. Who then shall stand in my way?”
Chen Ming rolled his eyes, This geezer is quite interesting. It looks like Jade Lake deserves its fame.
It’s a pity you met a story-surpassing grand boss.
Chen Ming wasn’t about to let him finish and took flight. Won’t I be wasting time if I did?
Baili Zhangqing eyed him as he took another step, “Ha-ha-ha. What can an ant do against me but die in vain!”
The fiends were in a panic, “Crown Prince Star Dragon, run! Hope will linger with your beating heart! You won’t make it if you fight him!”
“Run! There’s no way you can win!”
“Go and report to elders and we might still have a way out!”
Jade Lake and Heavenly Court laughed at this, “What’s this, a Divine Palace stage challenging a Beneath Immortal?”
“That’s certain death!”
“Like throwing eggs against a rock!”
All of them bore witness to Chen Ming’s next move. He punched Baili Zhangqing ten li away, into a freshly made hole.
Heavenly Court and Jade Lake were stunned, “Isn’t this Star Dragon a bit too strong?”
“This goes beyond all logic!”
“Not even a Beneath Immortal can win?”
The fiends were the same, “Even the legends aren’t that exaggerated!”
“In other words, the Star Dragon we know of is too weak?”
They each turned in quick succession to Yan Shengxiao. Their eyes held a simple meaning: You’re a disgrace as a Star Dragon.
Look at Crown Prince Star Dragon! He beats a Beneath Immortal in the Dao Comprehending realm. He punched Jade Lake’s nursing home! The awe-inspiring Beneath Immortal is now kissing dirt under a Dao Comprehending realm cultivator’s might!
Yan Shengxiao was lost for words, This is too much even for a Star Dragon!
Chen Ming ignored their pointlessly shocked reactions. What’s the use anyway. I can kill an immortal any day. Punching a Beneath Immortal is nothing to boast about.
These guys are just too ignorant.
Chen Ming glanced at Baili Zhangqing in the crater, His azure Daoist robe is a marvel, still keeping him in one piece. It must be immortal grade!
I say, these guys are weaker than weak but they sure know to bring lots of immortal tools.
How convenient to meet one when I lacked a proper outfit. Don’t mind if I help myself.
Baili Zhangqing crawled out of the hole, “Without this immortal armor, I would be a dead man. I can’t let a freaky Star Dragon like him live!”
But his last word marked the appearance of the said man in just across from him, “Oh, so it’s an immortal armor you say. Such a good item is most fitting to one such as me!”
Chen Ming snickered and punch thrice, sending Baili Zhangqing back again and again with no chance of retaliation.
Chen Ming’s gave him a once-over, Oh, still alive I see!
Wonderful!
Such a wonderful armor!
Chen Ming sent a flurry of blows, bloodying Baili Zhangqing as he fell powerless to the ground. Before the tribulation cloud finished gathering, Baili Zhangqing fell to his death.
With the black clouds dissipating, Chen Ming pried the robe of his corpse and put it on, “Ding! Sky Immortal Garb is being assessed. Sorry, as you do not train in Jade Lake’s cultivation method, you are rejected.”
This was his first encounter with an immortal equipment that refused him from the start. No worries, I don’t cultivate it now, but that won’t say I can’t in the future. And it looks to be a very near future too.
Chen Ming vanquished Baili Zhangqing with valor and might. He wore his Daoist robe with pride, then turned to others, “As the old saying goes, kindred spirits shall always meet, put to death regardless of distance(1), pei… Kindreds spirits shall always meet, so how could you not stay in my humble tavern?”
Jade Lake and Heavenly Court were lost. Baili Zhangqing has fallen. Who was his match now?
They bowed, “It is alright, we aren’t weary!”
Chen Ming said, “Come, all of you. I see that you are hurt. Why not stay at my humble tavern and recover?”
One from the Jade Lake’s side said, “I am fine, no need to rest! ”
Then one from the Heavenly Court banged his chest, “I am in perfect health, healthy as a horse!”
Chen Ming snickered, letting out the star dragon for a spin and getting the three thousand geniuses intimately acquainted with the ground. They spat blood as Chen Ming walked over, “You are now, so why not stay at my lovely tavern?”
Heavenly Court and Jade Lake’s people had no tears to cry, You’re too damn obstinate!
But as they were under his roof, they had to bow and follow his lead. Chen Ming found locking them was more than enough.
