Chapter 376: Consecutive Slaughtering of Nine Venerates

Although the Status recorded on the Human Path Records wasn’t that detailed, the information given was more than enough. Examples were the current Status given.

Chong Shan: Began cultivating in seclusion. He planned to spend about six years deducing his personal special ability with the hope of improving and sublimating it further to the extreme.

Immortal Venerate Tai Yin: Cultivating alone in the Moon Palace.

Heavenly Buddha: After preaching, he furtively arranged many of his disciples to be the spy in various parts of the world.

Vermilion Bird: Entering the deepest area of the Demon Holy Palace with the hope to obtain the strongest item left by the Demon Saint.

Dragon Monarch: With the hope to improve himself, he continued tempering the dragon carved pillar so that it would merge into the world upon completion. At the same time, he had been contacting some elders to form an alliance.

Jin Hao: Had just enjoyed life with 18 female scorpions and was figuring out ways to deal with Jiang Ming, and hunt for human beings.

Giant: Enjoying a deep sleep, the most meaningful thing to do, in his nest located in an abyss he built himself.

Because it was the golden chance to take actions, Jiang Ming was ecstatic.

‘Threatening me with human massacre? Ha! I won’t be able to sleep in peace without making you all go extinct!’ As Jiang Ming thought, he conjured out nine clones.

Each of them held a jade amulet with a different special ability such as the special abilities of the Dragon Monarch, Vermilion Bird, Tai Wuji, Great Monarch Tian Song, among others.

One of them plunged into the Human Path Record and got to a realm privately opened up. Although it wasn’t a complete one, it could carry experts cultivating in it. It was where the Golden Spirit Clan was located.

......

In an ancient palace, which was the most powerful and mightiest, was where Jin Hao, who was sitting cross-legged on an immortal gold, could be seen. While he was practicing breathing, he was thinking on how he could deal with Jiang Ming and destroy the Tianyuan Realm.

It was at this moment that he suddenly felt something and opened his eyes. He was shocked to see a human figure enveloping in golden luminance appearing before him.

Before Jin Hao could react, he was stiffened under an imprisonment power. Following that, a golden luminance of a finger was directed at his forehead, destroying his Primal Spirit which was trying to evoke special ability in an instant.

Pff…

A finger penetrated Jin Hao’s skull, and destroyed his soul. It was at the last moment of his life that his Primal Spirit vibrated, sending out doubts in despair.

“This is my palace! It’s surrounded by 72 layers of array formations! Even the palace itself is a Great Overarching Dao Vessel. Alas, it’s supposed that no one can enter without my permission! How can you come in quietly?”

“This is the finger of Lord Buddha! Heavenly Buddha, why are you doing this to me? Why…”

Jin Hao’s voice of despair reverberated in the void, and eventually stopped with resentment.

The clone smiled, and quickly rummaged through the palace for treasures and Dao vessels. After he had collected all of them, he returned through the Human Path Record.

On Chuyang Peak.

When the first clone had returned, the second one left.

Xue Bing, Giant, Niu Er…and the last one was Xiang Ba. When he was killed, the commotion created was extraordinarily loud. A sword qi split the heaven, smashed the earth, and even divided the small world opened up by the ancient Mammoth Clan into two.

It was indeed earth-shattering that all experts of the clan were surprised. Unfortunately, they only discovered the divided corpse of Xiang Ba, and the remaining terrific Sword Sambodha.

“This is the Taishang Unemotional Sword Sambodha of the Taishang Sword Sect!” A great monarch of the ancient Mammoth Clan was burned with rage after he investigated. “How dare the Taishang Sword Sect trespassed our forbidden land and killed the elder! They have gone too far, gone too far indeed!”

“Great monarch, are you sure that the culprit is the Taishang Sword Sect?” A relatively young expert muttered, “The Venerates of the Taishang Sword Sect have died tragically one after another. Even Tai Jian had died in the Abyss. I think Tai Wuji is the only Venerate left currently. Do you think he alone would dare to provoke us? I feel something seems not right.”

“Logically the Taishang Sword Sect should be in hiding. But why do they want to provoke us?” The great monarch frowned. “This is indeed illogical. Could it be a scheme? However, are there any other Venerates who master the Unemotional Sword Sambodha in the world? The answer is a resounding no!”

It was at this moment that a stream of light came penetrating the void. The great monarch caught it. When he learned about the information in it, his facial expression changed in an instant.

“Fellow Taoist Xue Bing has been killed!” The great monarch’s face was very gloomy.

“Xue Bing?”

“Yes, she is killed by the special ability Heaven Splitting Claw unique to Dragon Monarch. It has been confirmed!”

“How could it be?”

All the experts in the surroundings felt that something was not right.

Immediately followed after were streams of light coming.

“Jin Hao is killed by a great special ability of the Fo Sect!”

“Niu Er died in the inextinguishable flame. It was the special ability of Vermilion Bird!”

“The godly body of Giant has been transformed into a forest. It’s the special ability of Great Monarch Tian Song.”

The great monarch of the ancient Mammoth Clan had almost gone crazy. The experts nearby felt chill down their spines.

“Great monarch, does it mean that we are targeted by all forces in the world?” A middle-aged expert said with fear, “Otherwise, they wouldn’t attack in unison. But why do they kill only one Venerate in each clan? All these nine Venerates in addition to Shi Kuang, who was killed by Jiang Ming, were those 10 Venerates who went out the last time. Could it be that these incidents are merely a deterrent?”

“If they were to besiege us, they should have struck us all. This is weird!” The great monarch was confused, but the killing intentions shown in his eyes had got stronger. “Anyway, they’re initiating a war against us. Because they have insulted us, we’ll have to take our revenge, or we, as the 10 ancient clans, would be facing our downfall and extinction!”

At this time, there were streams of light coming again, bringing the news from within their own clan, and the other clans.

After the great monarch read the news, his face changed drastically again.

“Great monarch, what’s it?”

“There have been a lot of rumors outside, saying that Chong Shan of the Purple-eyed Demon Cow Clan is the avatar of the Heavenly Emperor Taiyuan!”

“H-how is this possible?”

“Yes, how is this possible?”

“Great monarch, does the rumor explain how the Heavenly Emperor becameChong Shan? If Chong Shan is the Heavenly Emperor, why didn’t he lead us to assist when the Heaven Court was collapsing? This is not logic, isn’t it? I think they are trying to divide us before they round us all up!”

“I’ve the same thought too! Hold on, let me go looking for Chong Shan to initiate a meeting involving all 10 clans to discuss countermeasures!”

The Mammoth Clan was not the only one who did so, the other ancient clans too. They called out Chong Shan, who had just gone into his seclusion.

“What? Niu Er has been killed? And the suspect is Vermilion Bird?”

“What? The other nine clans have one Venerate being killed? And they are all the venerates who went out last time?”

“What? They are killed by the special abilities of Heavenly Buddha, Vermilion Bird, Dragon Monarch, Tai Wuji, and the Great Monarch Tian Song?”

“What? They said that I’m an avatar of the Heavenly Emperor?”

Chong Shan was extremely shocked. He first thought of Jiang Ming because Jiang Ming knew about his identity. Hence, he might be spreading it out. However, he couldn’t explain how Jiang Ming was capable of killing Niu Er and the other Venerates with different special abilities of other Venerates.

‘Can it be that he works together with the Heavenly Buddha and likes to besiege us? Or the other forces unite because they are afraid of our 10 clans? And Jiang Ming took this opportunity to spread out my details? However, if they are besieging us, why only one of each clan is killed?’

Chong Shan remained calm as thoughts ran across his mind as he was trying to analyze their situation. However, he didn’t manage to convince himself with a logical explanation for each assumption that he had made. Hence, he became very irritated.

Then, he was invited to join the meeting with great monarchs of the ten clans.

On Chuyang Peak, Jiang Ming was standing with hands behind his back, smiling.

‘I’ve finally taken my revenge after all those 10 Venerates are all killed! Spreading out the details of Chong Shan has made this action imperfect. Anyway, let it be a reminder for Tai Yuan!’

As Jiang Ming pondered, he called out the Human Path Record to check on Chong Shan’s response.
