Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Nearly ten thousand meters away from the Xuanming Sect, Tang Huoer was sitting cross-legged high in the air, raising his hands to lightly block the sunlight, squinting his eyes as he watched the battle in the Xuanming Sect.

Although the distance is far, Tang Huoer is now a three-star Dou Zun, so he can see it, but the details are not so clear.

But it seems that so many details are not needed.

In the battle over there, his teacher Yao Tianhuo was completely slaughtering everyone one-sidedly, but Tang Huoer did not feel excited at all about this situation.

In a nutshell, she had long been accustomed to her teacher's terrifying combat power. During the three years of traveling around Zhongzhou with Yao Tianhuo, Tang Huoer had also witnessed Yao Tianhuo's extraordinary strength from various events. Even when compared with strong people of the same level, it could only be described as terrifying.

But even though she was used to it, Tang Huoer's eyes still revealed a look of satisfaction and admiration.

The three years of getting along made Tang Huoer respect his teacher more and more. Whether it was his bold personality, his unrestrained words and deeds, or his attitude of following his heart 100% in life, they all perfectly matched Tang Huoer's expectations for his future.

It can be said that Tang Huoer just wants to grow up to be a woman like Yao Tianhuo without any deviation.

"Hmm? Seems like it stopped?"

Tang Huoer frowned slightly, looking at the flaming beast in Xuanming Sect that had blocked the black-robed man's retreat and the two people who had stopped moving. She was not surprised at the result at all.

At least until now, in her eyes, Yao Tianhuo is invincible. This has been confirmed just now. The man in black robe was being chased and beaten by Yao Tianhuo and couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

The next second, Tang Huoer saw Yao Tianhuo suddenly move, and the Lihuo Blade in his hand cut through the space, cutting the black-robed man in two with just one cut!
"This should be the end now, huh?"

Tang Huoer raised her eyebrows and found that Yao Tianhuo disappeared from Xuanming Sect after splitting the black-robed man in two, and appeared in front of her the next moment, which surprised Tang Huoer slightly.

"Teacher, what's wrong with you?"

"I couldn't stop him, so I should run away."

Yao Tianhuo didn't say any more nonsense. He suddenly rushed over to Tang Huoer and put his arm around her shoulders.

"Eh eh eh?!"

Tang Huo'er was stunned and didn't have time to react before Yao Tianhuo carried her ten thousand meters away in an instant.

Before Tang Huoer turned around to ask what was going on, the Xuanming Sect suddenly burst out with an extremely dazzling light.

The next moment, the glow suddenly enlarged, and the terrifying energy contained in it swallowed up everything within a radius of ten thousand meters, and Tang Huoer's heart was suddenly clenched.

Self-destruct? !
boom! ! !
In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color, and all the light in this area was taken away by the brilliance of the explosion. It was as if the world was destroyed, making Tang Huoer feel powerless and desperate. Even Yao Tianhuo, who was proud of his strength, couldn't help but frown.

The horrifying aftermath of the explosion lasted for dozens of seconds before gradually subsiding, and the deprived light slowly recovered. Tang Huoer saw the scene clearly and couldn't help but gasp.

With Xuanming Sect as the center, everything within a radius of tens of thousands of meters turned into nothingness, and the only thing that could be seen was the huge semicircular sinkhole reflected on the ground!

This is the power of the self-detonation of a two-star Douluo in the early stage. It is so terrifying that even Yao Tianhuo will be destroyed instantly if he is caught in it!

"Tsk tsk tsk, this guy is really decisive."

Yao Tianhuo carried Tang Huoer on her back with a slight curl of her lips. She had originally considered whether the man in black robe was trying to scare people with the self-destruction in order to take the opportunity to escape, but she didn't expect that he could actually do it. When Yao Tianhuo reacted and wanted to stop him, it was too late.

Fortunately, the Xuanming Sect was established in the deep mountains and forests to avoid the eyes of the Tianhe Alliance, so no innocent people were involved. Otherwise, Yao Tianhuo would have a hard time explaining to Xiao Yan.

But now it seems a little hard to explain.

Yao Tianhuo scratched his fiery red hair in distress. Chen Tiannan, the person involved, was not saved, and the black-robed man, the mastermind behind the scenes, was not stopped either. This meant that the source of the news was completely cut off.

Then Yao Tianhuo's eyes were filled with solemnity as he looked at the huge tiankeng in front of him that was tens of thousands of meters long.

It is true that the power of self-destruction is greater as one becomes stronger, but at the same time, the stronger the person, the less willing they are to use this tactic.

No matter how strong a person is who wants to reach the realm of Fighting Saint, he must have gone through countless trials and tribulations. Even if he knows that he will die, he will not be willing to give up everything and perish together with the other party, not to mention that the goal of dying together may not be achieved.

There must be other reasons that prompted him to make such a decisive decision. Yao Tianhuo thought about it and came up with a reason.

That is, if the man in black robe did not self-destruct, even if he escaped from his hands alive, he would probably encounter something several times more terrifying than self-destruction.

"Teacher, we?"

Tang Huoer slowly recovered from her shock and looked at Yao Tianhuo inquiringly. The latter sighed softly and said lightly.

"Go back to the Tianhe Alliance and tell them about the Xuanming Sect."

After saying that, Yao Tianhuo picked up Tang Huoer and disappeared in a flash.

Then the area was filled with deathly silence for dozens of minutes.

At this time, Yao Tianhuo suddenly came back and appeared on the top of the tiankeng with Tang Huoer. He released his perception and scanned every place carefully. Only after confirming that there was no remaining life did he really leave.

Almost half an hour after Yao Tianhuo and Tang Huoer left, a wisp of black soul quietly emerged from the bottom of the tiankeng, whooshed into a space, and disappeared without a trace.

Tianhe Alliance, in the meeting room.

Following Zijing's instructions, Lu Xia sent messages to the leaders of the five major forces of the Tianhe Alliance, gathering them here to discuss the leak of the news about Venerable Huanyu.

"We just had a meeting yesterday, how come there's such a mess today?"

Xuan Yi frowned tightly, and Hua Yu beside her asked in confusion.

"By the way, is that news true?"

"Whether it's a rumor or not, those lone guys are definitely gathering in the Black Horn Region." Tang Zhen folded his thick arms and said in a deep voice, "Those guys have been stuck at the peak of the Nine Revolutions Dou Zun for hundreds of years. They are very greedy for the Bodhi Pills given by the Soul Palace. They regretted the disappearance of Venerable Huanyu from Zhongzhou three years ago. This time, they have news about them again. Whether it's true or not, they will go to the Black Horn Region."

After Tang Zhen finished speaking, Feng Xian continued.

"If Venerable Huanyu is not in the Black Horn Region, it's not a big deal. There shouldn't be any big trouble." When Feng Xian said this, a cold light flashed in her eyes. "But if Venerable Huanyu is really in the Black Horn Region, it will be terrible. I don't think Venerable Huanyu's three women will surrender without a fight."

While Feng Xian and the other three were discussing this, Yun Ying, the leader of the alliance, had been sitting on the main seat and did nothing, just listening quietly.

Feng Xian glanced at the others and said calmly.

"Zi Jing and Zi Yan have already gone to the Black Horn Region to inform Xiao Yan of this matter. Let's wait for their news. As for each other, we should first find out where this news came from."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in the conference room.

“I have found the source of this.”

Yao Tianhuo and Tang Huoer appeared in the conference room in an instant. Tang Huoer was very happy to see Tang Zhen and walked towards him, raising his hand to greet him.

"Dad! Long time no see!"

"Girl, you haven't come back for so many days. Your grandpa misses you so much."

Tang Zhen raised his hand and patted Tang Huoer's head, looking at his beloved daughter lovingly, while Feng Xian looked at Yao Tianhuo and asked. "It's been a long time, what do you mean by finding the source?"

"Ah~ To be precise, we didn't find the source, but we found where the message came from." Yao Tianhuo glanced at the others and said indifferently: "Xuanming Sect, Chen Tiannan."

"Chen Tiannan? Is it him?" Xuan Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded gently, "Indeed, his son was killed by Xiao Yan himself. If it was for revenge, it is understandable that he spread this false news to cause trouble for Xiao Yan."

"But isn't he afraid? He is just a small sect like Xuanming Sect, spreading such fake news. Does he really think we can't find out?"

Hua Yu frowned, and Feng Xian said in a deep voice.

"No matter what, let's capture Chen Tiannan first."

"Unfortunately, this cannot be done."

As soon as Feng Xian finished speaking, Yao Tianhuo shrugged helplessly and said so, which made Feng Xian look at her in surprise. Yao Tianhuo continued.

"He has been killed by an unknown person."

"what?"

Feng Xian and the others were all stunned, and then Yao Tianhuo told them what had just happened, including the fact that he was entrusted by Xiao Yan to keep an eye on Chen Tiannan in advance.

After listening to this, the conference room fell into silence for a long time. Tang Zhen had a solemn expression, and he was also a little scared in his heart. The self-detonation of a two-star Dou Sheng in the early stage was horrifying just to hear about it, and his daughter was actually in such a scene.

After a long time, Xuan Yi spoke first to break the silence and summarized Yao Tianhuo's speech.

"In other words, Chen Tiannan was just a scapegoat, and the one who actually ordered him to spread the news was the power behind the man in black robe?"

"Tianhuo, you have fought with him before. Which force do you think the man in black robe belongs to?"

Feng Xian asked Yao Tianhuo, who just waved his hand lightly.

"Who knows? It's true that I fought that guy, but he never revealed his true identity. When I pushed him into a desperate situation, he blew himself up. It's obvious that he didn't want me to guess his identity."

A two-star Douluo in the early stage, when forced into a desperate situation, did not think of fighting for his life, but instead chose to self-destruct. This matter is so weird no matter how you think about it.

It can only be as Yao Tianhuo guessed, for the man in black robe, exposing his identity is far more terrifying than death.

At this time Hua Yu thought for a moment and spoke in a deep voice.

"Could it be the Soul Palace?"

Now, nine out of ten forces in Zhongzhou have been incorporated into the Tianhe Alliance. Apart from those small forces that do not need attention, the only remaining major force that has not joined the Tianhe Alliance is the Soul Palace.

"The Soul Palace guys have done a lot of disgusting things since their establishment. It is in line with their style to do something behind the scenes."

Hua Yu said coldly. Originally, the Hua Sect was a non-aggressive one and had no good or bad feelings towards the Soul Palace. But ever since Hua Yu knew that Yao Chen’s disappearance was caused by the Soul Palace, he had become extremely disgusted with this force.

Hearing Hua Yu's words, Xuan Yi also pinched his chin lightly.

"Indeed, this kind of behind-the-scenes manipulation is in line with their style of doing things, and currently the only one in Zhongzhou who dares to go against the Tianhe Alliance is the Soul Palace."

Although he said that, Xuan Yi's brows furrowed even more tightly.

If it was really the Soul Palace that was behind this, then what was their purpose in ordering Chen Tiannan to release the news that Venerable Huan Yu was in the Black Horn Region? Did Hun Mie Sheng have to rush to send the Bodhi Pill out?
As for the matter of Venerable Huanyu, they had always been wondering if these three people were not from the Soul Palace? Why did Hun Miesheng personally come out to offer a bounty for their lives with the Bodhi Pill?

The conference room fell silent again. At this moment, Yunying, who had been silent all along, spoke.

"Everyone, when Master Xiao established the Tianhe League, he said that in order to establish order and rules, we must be justified in everything we do. Even if it was really done by the Soul Palace, we don't have definite evidence." Yunying crossed her fingers and said lightly: "If we closely link the Soul Palace with this matter just because of suspicion, it will only cause cracks in the order and rules that the Tianhe League has worked so hard to establish. I'm sure Master Xiao would not agree to that."

After listening to Yunying's words, everyone thought about Xiao Yan's character and nodded helplessly.

Indeed, they all understood Xiao Yan's character. He would never go to great lengths to punish someone just because of such a suspicion. So far, all the people Xiao Yan had executed had solid evidence of their guilt, leaving no room for rebuttal.

At this time Yunying continued to speak.

"No matter who is behind this, it is an indisputable fact that the news has already spread. We should prepare for the worst." Yunying frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "If Venerable Huanyu is really in the Black Horn Region, we have to do much more than we imagined."

In the most remote area of ​​Zhongzhou Continent stands the headquarters of the Soul Palace, the most powerful force in Zhongzhou Continent.

Hun Mie Sheng stood in the hall, staring with an unpleasant expression at the man in front of him who had only a wisp of soul left and barely managed to run back.

The second celestial master of the Soul Palace, Hun Qing, was the man in black robe who was previously intercepted and killed by Yao Tianhuo and had to self-destruct in order to avoid exposing his identity.

Looking at Hun Qing, whose soul was particularly weak in front of him, Hun Mie Sheng felt like a thousand devil horses were running through his heart. If he hadn't cared about his image, he would have started cursing!
Damn it! The Communist Party only let you show up twice, and you were arrested?
Not only was he caught, but he was also beaten by Yao Tianhuo without any chance to fight back, and was even forced to self-destruct. It was a disgrace to the Soul Palace's Heavenly Master!
Although Hun Mie Sheng was angry, he also understood that Hun Qing did such an extreme thing in order not to reveal his identity. Moreover, Hun Qing was an old subordinate who had followed him in the family for many years. Now he had blew himself up in order to conceal his identity and barely escaped back with a wisp of residual soul. If he just ignored it, it would probably discourage others.

Indeed, there is absolute power to ignore everything, including what your subordinates think of you.

However, it is obvious that Hun Mie Sheng does not have that qualification. To put it bluntly, he is almost more than ten thousand people in Zhongzhou, but there are many people in the clan who can replace him. You must know that many people are eyeing his position. If he cannot consolidate his power at any time, the probability of him being replaced will certainly increase greatly.

What's more, although Hun Qing used the extreme method of self-destruction, he did not expose his identity and the news had already spread, so he finally completed that person's mission.

But here lies the problem.

Whether the mission is completed or not is not up to Hun Mie Sheng to decide.

"Hun Miesheng, are you here to lecture someone?"

Suddenly a voice sounded from behind Hun Mie Sheng, startling him. Turning around, he saw Yun Ling, the second young lady of the Yun family, sitting in her seat, looking down at him arrogantly.

"grown ups!"

Seeing this, Hun Mie Sheng knelt down without hesitation, while Yun Ling waved his hand lightly.

"Alright, alright, that guy said that this incident is not his fault. Besides, he really didn't reveal his identity. Let's just consider it as mission accomplished."

"Thank you, sir!"

Hun Mie Sheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and knelt on the ground to express his gratitude. At this time, a portrait appeared on the ground in front of him, with a series of information clearly listed on it.

Luo Ming, an early stage two-star Douluo, currently lives in seclusion in the misty forest in the southern region of Zhongzhou.

Just when Hun Mie was confused, Yun Ling continued.

"Restore the soul of the poor guy behind you, then capture the guy in this portrait and replace his soul." Yun Ling gently touched the side of his face and said leisurely, "This is what the guy got from the information he collected from the Tianhe Alliance. This Luo Ming has always been alone, and no one will find him even if he dies. Just consider it a reward."

Yun Ling's tone was so casual, but her words were so chilling.

In response to this, Hun Mie Sheng responded without any hesitation.

"As you command!" (End of this chapter)
