Dragon Tamer - Chapter 1485 - 1489: Unstoppable

Chapter 1485: Chapter 1489: Unstoppable

The sound of evening bells rang continuously, and the people in the wide square slowly stood up, leaving reluctantly.

They were like students just stepping out of an academy, deeply influenced by today’s lesson. Many young disciples were passionately discussing it, as if this preaching could change their destinies.

“To be able to publicly share such an unparalleled method without holding back, Ji Tianzun is truly a saintly ancestor!”

“Indeed, many Immortal Sects and Divine Gates require the Servant God’s Mark to pass down their true skills, and even make changes to prevent disciples from surpassing them. However, our Immortal Master Cao and Ji Tianzun are entirely different. If I hadn’t already reached a point of no return with Sword Intent cultivation, I would have wanted to become a Flag Soul Master.”

“The next lesson is not until next month; I truly wish time would pass quicker.”

These cultivators had already savored the benefits, revealing their admiration and obsession with this power in their words.

Every cultivator has experienced the pain and hardship of having no master to turn to and no path to follow. Now, with someone willing to share the sect’s secrets and methods openly, how could it not attract large crowds, especially since this method indeed can improve one’s strength in a short time!

Zhu Minglang looked at these gradually dispersing figures, his gaze becoming sharp.

Ji Yuanye’s Soul Flag Masters were not only active in Jun Tian but have also been acclaimed by many deities in Xuan Tian. It’s like some invincible cult spreading relentlessly, driving people mad!

For those who admire this power, Zhu Minglang would not show any mercy because he knows the premise on which this power is built.

Once these people leave this place, given their madness, they would immediately practice with fresh Azure Spirits, and the process is utterly cruel!

“Immortal Master Cao is tired today and can’t meet with you. Why don’t you find a nearby inn to rest, and I’ll take you to see Immortal Master Cao tomorrow morning?” God Wu Men Pang Chuanyi said.

“Alright, alright.” Zhu Minglang was in no hurry.

He didn’t intend to let a single person slip away, especially the leaders responsible for imparting these teachings; only by dealing with them could he prevent further harm to those who eagerly hope for cultivation yet are easily deceived.

…

At night, Zhu Minglang found it hard to sleep.

There were always some horrific screams echoing in his ears.

Zhu Minglang knew this was no illusion, but his Divine Sense allowing him to hear these sounds.

Suddenly, an extremely piercing, heart-wrenching scream sounded beside Zhu Minglang.

“Stop it, stop it, I… I don’t want to live like this. I can beg, I won’t burden you anymore, please!” It was a tender voice, from a young man.

When Zhu Minglang heard this cry, in a poor corner of the Tianshu Divine City, a Qiong Wu dressed in a short shirt took out a paring knife, cutting his brother piece by piece, following the methods learned during the day!

“Didn’t you say you would support your brother? Why are you retreating now? I’ve taken care of your leg ailment for so many years without recognition from any respectable sect. Now there’s a chance to rise above, you should help your brother this once, consider it repayment!”

“It hurts, it truly hurts, I’m sorry, please don’t blame me anymore, let me go!”

“We are almost done, and your soul will forever reside in my blade, isn’t that the best home for you? When I become a deity, you’ll also exist with me eternally, you must trust your brother, and trust Immortal Master Cao, we will all ascend and become immortal, no longer oppressed!” the man insisted fanatically and maliciously.

Zhu Minglang was about to rise, but the distant sounds suddenly quieted down. A short while later, the sound of shaving bones reached Zhu Minglang’s ears, chilling him even more.

He even felt somewhat weary, looking up at the starry sky.

He waved his hand and said to the night sky outside the window, “Xuanmu, help me see if there is an Immortal Master nearby and handle that brute slaughtering his own brother for me.”

A dim starlight flickered at the edge of the city, Zhu Minglang closed off his senses and stopped listening.

This kind of tragedy is everywhere.

Zhu Minglang understood that the source of all evil was not Ji Yuanye but the ambition driving each person to pursue supreme power. Once they see results, they abandon the moral baseline.

Starting with small animals, then living creatures, followed by dragons, then people, and finally one’s kin…

For some more stubborn and frenzied individuals, they might skip this gradual descent into the abyss, turning the paring knife on their kin because their kin’s soul is the easiest to acquire, utterly defenseless, yet powerful and effective!

Zhu Minglang also didn’t expect that in the past year or two during his seclusion, some ideas would have already spread throughout the Nine Heavens Wilderness!

Or perhaps, Ji Yuanye had been laying the groundwork for a hundred years, just waiting for this moment to spiral out of control!

This Immortal Master Cao holds a significant position in the Soul Flag Masters’ sect; Zhu Minglang hoped to get information about Ji Yuanye from this guy.

This person must be eliminated, and it’s urgent!

…

In the early morning, Zhu Minglang headed to the Martial Qi Shrine, where a group of martial artists with ambitions higher than the heavens were still practicing in the vast square.

God Wu Men Pang Chuanyi led Zhu Minglang to the shrine. Passing by a practice area, Zhu Minglang saw the Curse Spiral Nails on the racks.

“Are you interested, brother?” Pang Chuanyi asked.

“A little, what’s this used for?” Zhu Minglang asked knowingly.

“I can give you a tour,” Pang Chuanyi said with some pride.

Pang Chuanyi led Zhu Minglang to a large hall covered in various vines. The hall was vast but open at the top, and inside, various plants grew. Zhu Minglang even sensed that this seemed to be the Guishen Tree where Xuange God once died.

Indeed, upon entering the center, Zhu Minglang saw the Guishen Tree and vaguely heard a woman’s soul voice.

“You’ve appeared…”

“Hahaha, is this the sight you wanted to see?”

“I told you, you didn’t win, and the world won’t see a dawn. Isn’t today’s Tianshu worse than what you initially saw??”

“Hahahaha, if you had conceded back then, I could assure you that the North Dipper a hundred years later would not look like this, absolutely not!!”

Xuange God’s soul was entangled beneath the Guishen Tree. She saw Zhu Minglang, displaying an immensely excited expression.

Zhu Minglang merely treated it like a stench passing by the wind, completely disregarding the remnant soul of Xuange God, which posed no threat.

What shocked Zhu Minglang was, inside this vegetation-filled hall, stood many rare Azure Dragons!

These Azure Dragons seemed both alive and dead, without exception, like Xuanlong, they were nailed with curse spikes, then fixed with silver spears!

“They are still alive, aren’t they?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Of course, these are premium items used to make Dragon Soul Banners. They must undergo the baptism for three hundred days, so that the Dragon Soul Banner can become even more powerful. Additionally, their dragon souls can be introduced into the divine weapons, forming power that far surpasses the inscriptions of Zhu Tian’s Divine Armament Pavilion!” Pang Chuanyi said.

“That’s quite a mystical method.” Zhu Minglang said.

“Come, choose one. This represents our sect’s recognition towards you and it shows our acceptance of the broad range of cultivators. You may choose one Dragon Soul here; let it reside within your ancient sword so you can feel the transformation of the ancient sword!” Pang Chuanyi said.

Zhu Minglang selected a dragon and guided its soul into the Sword Spirit Dragon.

This isn’t soul-stealing, but spiritual liberation. Zhu Minglang allowed it to be freed.

“Haha, you’re well-suited to join us! Come, you must be eager to meet Immortal Master Cao, aren’t you?” Pang Chuanyi laughed and said.

“What’s Immortal Master Cao’s status in our sect? Forgive my lack of knowledge about your respected sect.” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Ji Tianzun has seven disciples, and Immortal Master Cao is the last disciple of Ji Immortal, no less than direct disciples and true disciples!” Pang Chuanyi explained.

“I see, no wonder with just a glimpse, I was astounded by his heavenly presence. To be recommended by Brother Pang is a lifetime blessing for me, Zhu Minglang!” Zhu Minglang said.

“No, no. Ji Tianzun has always been broad in accepting talents, and Immortal Master Cao has inherited this trait. Everyone helps each other, leading the cultivation world into a brighter era.” Pang Chuanyi’s tone was not only in praise of himself but more like for the entire world, having the demeanor of deities.

Zhu Minglang merely maintained a surface smile.

…

Finally, Zhu Minglang met Immortal Master Cao.

Immortal Master Cao had quite a few rules; first, pay respects to the golden statue of Ji Tianzun, then to the portraits of the other six disciples, and finally greet him in person.

Zhu Minglang noticed that there were quite a few people brought to meet Immortal Master Cao, all with considerable cultivation bases, at least of God Son Level Realm.

“Please sit, everyone. To gather the talented heroes of Tianshu here is indeed an honor for me, Cao. I assume you all come here to learn the soul establishment, so I won’t hide it. As long as you sincerely study, I can personally demonstrate to everyone!” Immortal Master Cao declared.

“Thankful to Immortal Master Cao!” everyone said in unison.

“Is there news of that Xuanlong?” Immortal Master Cao asked a three-eyed man beside him.

The three-eyed man slightly nodded and said, “It is very, very close to us. Once I use the Divine Eye, it will have nowhere to hide!”

“Good, then all present shall follow me shortly to subdue this Xuanlong, and I will demonstrate to everyone how to turn it into a Dragon Soul Banner!” Immortal Master Cao declared loudly.

The three-eyed man lightly touched the Golden Bowl Holy Water before him, then used the wetted finger to gently wipe from his third eye.

His third eye seemed to undergo a special baptism, instantly becoming sharp and resplendent.

The light in his pupils could even shine forth onto others, revealing vague shadows within this majestic mystical pupil light.

Soon, this three-eyed deity’s pupil light revealed a luxurious courtyard, as well as the gathered talented heroes present!

The crowd began to murmur in doubt, questioning whether this three-eyed deity’s Divine Eye had issues.

The three-eyed deity himself showed a hint of confusion, as this was his unrivaled divine skill. Few lives could escape his Divine Eye’s sense after being grasped by Scale Feathers!

The three-eyed deity once again touched the precious rare Holy Water, and once more activated the Divine Eye.

Yet unexpectedly, the light and shadow in his pupils still depicted the courtyard they were in!

“I’ll try once more.” The three-eyed deity felt a little embarrassed, intending to use the ability again, despite it being quite mentally exhausting.

“Wait.” At this moment, Immortal Master Cao blocked the three-eyed deity with one hand, his eyes gleaming as he focused on the scene depicted by the divine pupil light.

Finally, his gaze locked on what was near Zhu Minglang.

“No need to try further; Xuanlong is right here, among us.” Immortal Master Cao, clearly possessing some insight, had already discerned the truth.

He scanned back and forth, his eyes like a hunter searching for that daring prey!

At this point, Zhu Minglang slowly stood up, a smile of unfathomable profoundness on his face.

“Xuanlong is in my Spirit Realm.” Zhu Minglang said boldly.

“Seems someone has taken advantage; the Xuanlong we’ve been hunting accidentally fell into your hands. But our sect has always been open and generous, so since you obtained it, it’s yours, as long as you’re willing to serve our sect, don’t let our years of effort go to waste!” Immortal Master Cao smiled, displaying no concern over his prey being snatched.

His display of immortal elegance quickly won the admiration of everyone present.

“It’s not as you think; Xuanlong has always had a Spirit Contract with me.” Zhu Minglang said.

“Oh?? But all these years, we never saw its owner.” Immortal Master Cao said.

“So here I am now, aren’t I?” Zhu Minglang replied.

“So by your meaning…”

“Why don’t you all also taste the feeling of being crafted into a banner? If none of you demands mercy, I will acknowledge your path!” Zhu Minglang laughed.

This sentence, casually spoken, instilled a chill and dread in all present, and as the words fell, they felt as if they’d plunged into a thousand fathoms of icy abyss, enduring piercing cold, yet the next moment felt the blazing sun scorching their souls!

The courtyard disappeared, the Divine City disappeared, the earth and sky vanished together. A frightening figure stood proudly, the energy emitted by him was so massive it could pulverize worlds of countless stars, and his cold gaze could pierce the unreachable Heavenly Immortal Realm!

Unstoppable!

Small as dust!

And death was not instantaneous; they felt the fear they could not endure while seemingly able to consciously experience and oversee their punishment process!

First, a sword beam flashed, shaving off the kneecaps of everyone in the room of a hundred people!

Then another sword, the arms were neatly removed!

Without limbs, they were mere flesh columns!
