Dao of the Bizarre Immortal

Chapter 538 - Chibao

“Phew~” Qiu Chibao was sprawled out on the ground while carefully fanning the flames with her breath. She was cooking something in her broken bowl above the fire.

Rumble!

Her stomach rumbled, and she tied the strings of her pants tighter.

Her name was Chibao[1], but she rarely filled her belly.

It had been the same when was still living with her parents, and it remained the same even after she got married.

The fire grew smaller, and she panicked. She looked around her and quickly grabbed a handful of human bones beside a bonfire to fuel the flames.

Qiu Chibao sighed in relief when the flames got stronger. She then carefully removed the tile that she had used to substitute as the bowl lid.

The boiling water had three cobblestones within it; she prodded the stones with her rusted knife and grinned in delight, which brightened up her dirty face.

Qiu Chibao then covered the bowl and added more firewood. Afterward, she grabbed the nearby bundle of rags and rocked it in her arms.

“My son, the stones will soon go soft. Once it’s soft, you can drink the stone soup, and your illness will be cured! You can even become an Immortal!”

Qiu Chibao was so thrilled at the idea that she was chuckling while playing with her laughing son.

Just then, the people sleeping around her suddenly woke up in agitation.

An old man sleeping beside her woke up and stretched. His legs accidentally knocked over her bowl.

“My stone soup!” Qiu Chibao cried out in despair. The Dharma Sect members around her stirred and stood up one by one.

“Kill that Daoist in red robes! He killed our Lord Wu Zhu!” someone shouted, and everyone buzzed with agitation.

“Who killed our Wu Zhu?! Without him talking to Sir Arrogant Stone, the stone soup might not going to work!”

Qiu Chibao forgot about her despair when she heard those words. She stopped collecting the cobblestones on the ground and placed her rusted knife into the bundle of rags that she had used to wrap her son. She stood up shakily and wanted to charge at the front lines, but she was too emaciated to do so. She was too weak to shove away the person in front of her.

“Let me go! Let me go! I can’t see!” Qiu Chibao shouted, but no one heard her.

All of a sudden, the people moved to the side, revealing a path to her.

At the end of the path was a Daoist in red robes; the Daoist was wearing a bronze coin veil and had black tentacles sprouting all over his body.

Rather than feeling afraid, Qiu Chibao felt that she was under Sir Arrogant Stone's protection. She held her crying son and charged at the bizarre monster.

“You killed our Wu Zhu! How dare you destroy my stone soup!” Qiu Chibao gritted her teeth and thrust her rusted knife toward the Daoist in red robes.

In the next instant, she saw the sky become dark. She didn’t know what happened afterward.

“Dad! Dad!” Li Sui’s voice snapped Li Huowang out of it. He had been staring at the meat paste in front of him.

This was not the time to be distracted! He was still surrounded by the enemies!

Li Huowang was soaked in sweat as he took a deep breath. He chased after Peng Longteng, who was opening a path for him.

“Don’t just stand and fight! Charge forward! Break through the people!”

However, Peng Longteng ignored him and continued her onslaught.

“Go forward, or I will dematerialize you! I won’t materialize you again if that happens!” f𝐫e𝚎𝘄eb𝚗o𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝚘m

Peng Longteng stood still and clenched her right hand. The grotesque noise of cracking bones echoed as she crushed the head of a refugee in her hand. The bones and flesh seeped out from the gaps in her fingers.

Even though she didn’t want to do so, she had no choice but to follow Li Huowang’s orders under the latter's threat. She could only enjoy the sensation of killing with a physical body, so she had no choice but to rely on Li Huowang for now.

The massive Peng Longteng grabbed two men and forged a path of blood through the refugees. She swept across the townspeople and refugees alike as if she were a tornado.

Peng Longteng was in charge of the slaughter up ahead, so Li Huowang felt that the burden on him was much lighter. But he was not happy at all. He couldn't stop thinking about the woman holding a dead baby earlier.

He looked around and saw their skinny bodies with an engorged abdomen.

The red veil slowly lifted off his eyes.

Peng Longteng stomped on one of the refugees’ stomachs and squeezed out the content of their stomach through their mouths. However, rather than food, the refugee vomited lumps of what looked like clay.

It turned out that the refugees had been eating Kaolinite!

Those who consumed Kaolinite wouldn't live for long. Li Huowang even saw a human’s leg in the refugee's stomach; it seemed that they had been eating each other as well.

Li Huowang knew that those who had joined the Dharma Sect would commit all kinds of atrocities. It was definitely not a good thing to worship God Yu’er, but did they have a choice?

“Sir Arrogant Stone, protect me!” An old man with white hair raised his stick as he charged at Li Huowang.

Li Sui’s bronze coin whipped around the old man’s neck and tore off his head.

Li Huowang walked over the head and moved forward.

He looked at their faces, and for some reason, he recalled his master, Dan Yangzi.

All of them were just like Dan Yangzi, firm in their beliefs but ignorant. And that was exactly how they were manipulated...

Li Huowang discovered another truth of this cruel world when he saw the frenzy in the eyes of the decapitated heads.

This crazy world had ground everything the people in this world had to dust, including their rationality. Thus, they could only place their hope on God Yu’er; it didn't matter even if God Yu'er forced them to become murderers.

The people were innocent, but Li Huowang had no choice but to use their blood to forge a path to live.

However, perhaps death was better for them. Dying meant emancipation from suffering, and it was much better than living life as a mindless zombie.

Jin Shanzhao stared at the scene in front of him with eyes filled with sadness and anger. He cried at the sight of such injustice, “ARGH!”

That was the first time Li Huowang heard his voice ever since he became an illusion...

All of a sudden, the ground beneath caved in, and his legs were stuck!

He looked around and saw three mounds of earth rapidly approaching him.

Li Huang knew that there had to be someone commanding so many sect members, but he never expected them to come here so soon!
