Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

"damn it!"

Somewhere in the ancient wilderness, a black shadow was flying across the wasteland at a high speed. It was Yao Xiaotian, who had managed to escape from Yao Chen and others by using his subordinates' self-destruction.

At this moment, out of the dozen or so Nine Netherworld Pythons that originally numbered here, only Yao Xiaotian, the clan leader, is left.

Yao Chen, Xiao Yan's teacher, this is information that anyone can know with a little knowledge in Zhongzhou, and Yao Xiaotian is naturally no exception. Therefore, the moment he recognized Yao Chen, Yao Xiaotian immediately determined the result.

They were Yao Chen and the others who had been following Xiao Yan. Whether it was secretly or in advance, they all saw with their own eyes the fact that Xiao Yan and Yao Tianhuo followed them into the illusion. In addition, there were actually three four-star Douluo among the people following Yao Chen. If Yao Xiaotian had hesitated for half a second longer, he would have been left there.

“This time I really lost a lot!”

Yao Xiaotian, who escaped death, cursed under his breath and lowered his head slightly to look in the direction indicated by the Bodhi seed in his hand.

All the masters in the tribe were defeated by their own people in the previous wave. If they don’t get more rare treasures from the ancient Bodhi tree this time, then this trip to the ancient wilderness will be a pure loss.

He must, he must get good things from the ancient Bodhi tree. His ascension to the position was not legitimate in the first place. Although most of the Nine Netherworld Python's clansmen did not know what he had done back then, they did not have much faith in him as the clan leader. Now that so many masters of the clan have been killed, if he does not find a way to get more things to shut up those people, he is afraid that he will really become a commander without troops.

Although Yao Xiaotian has a sinister personality and cruel behavior, he is very clear about one thing in his heart.

As the clan leader, I have been able to achieve what I have today. Although many people in the clan do not believe in me, they still basically obey my orders, simply because I am the strongest in the clan.

However, the deterrence brought by military force can rule for a while, but cannot rule for a lifetime, unless he completely does not take the Nine Netherworld Python seriously. If this is the case, it doesn't matter whether he is still the patriarch or not.

It is obvious that Yao Xiaotian still cares very much about his position as the clan leader.

But don't get me wrong, Yao Xiaotian doesn't value his family members that much, he just wants to better train his own people from the family. If no one listens to him and all the family members go against him, where can Yao Xiaotian train his own people?
"Coming."

Yao Xiaotian murmured, his eyes following the direction indicated by the Bodhi seed. The excellent eyesight of the Fighting Saint allowed him to see at a glance that in the wasteland far ahead, there were dozens of men in black surrounding an open space. It was obvious at a glance that there must be something in that open space.

"Someone got there first?"

Yao Xiaotian frowned and flashed to the sky above the open space. He looked at the man in black guarding the open space below and frowned slightly.

Could these people be from the Soul Palace? Sure enough, the Soul Palace was also involved this time.

Yao Xiaotian was able to tell the identities of these people from their attire and aura. After all, these attire and the dark aura were almost the hallmarks of the Soul Palace and were very easy to recognize.

But what if it is the Soul Palace?
Yao Xiaotian's expression turned ferocious, he had already sensed that the highest of these men in black was only a late-stage two-star Douluo, and they could not make any waves in front of him.

And if he killed them all again, who would know that he had killed them? Maybe he could even put the blame on Yao Chen and the others later.

Yao Xiaotian's mobility was fully utilized. After making up his mind, he dived down without hesitation. As soon as the soul servants of the Soul Palace realized that someone was approaching, two of them had been stabbed in the chest by Yao Xiaotian!

"Who is it?! How dare you kill someone from my Soul Palace?!!"

The leading Soul Palace reacted immediately, glaring at Yao Xiaotian who casually threw the two soul messenger corpses down. The cloak on his head also slipped off with the strong wind, revealing his face.

If Xiao Yan and the others were here, they would definitely recognize immediately that this is Luo Ming, the powerful man from Zhongzhou who suddenly disappeared some time ago.

But in fact, this was the second Heavenly Master of the Soul Palace, Hun Qing, who occupied Luo Ming's body. Thanks to Hun Mie Sheng's care, Hun Qing successfully reached the late stage of the two-star Douluo after occupying the body.

When Hun Qing saw Yao Xiaotian's abnormal body, although he did not know Yao Xiaotian, he recognized the other party's ethnic group at a glance.

"You are the Nine Nether Earth Python?!"

“Hmph!” Yao Xiaotian glanced at Hun Qing and snorted disdainfully, “If Hun Mie was born here, I would definitely not dare to even show my face. You are just a two-star Dou Sheng. How can I afford to offend you!”

As he spoke, Yao Xiaotian's figure flashed, and a flash of blood appeared. Several soul messengers were beheaded by Yao Xiaotian without any warning.

When Hun Qing saw that Yao Xiaotian actually ignored him and killed his men in front of him, he became so angry that his face turned ferocious and he roared angrily.

"you!!!"

"What do you mean by 'you'? Don't think you can get away. I'll send you to be reunited with your men right away!"

Yao Xiaotian's eyes flashed with cold light, and he appeared behind Hunqing in a flash. The speed of this late Three Star Douluo was so fast that Hunqing could not see clearly at all. When he noticed it, he turned around in horror, and saw Yao Xiaotian's claws that had been raised towards him, stabbing towards his heart.

puff!

At this critical moment, Hun Qing dodged sideways at the fastest speed in his life, but was still inevitably torn off a piece of flesh and blood by Yao Xiaotian. Hun Qing did not care about the severe pain he felt, and quickly dodged to distance himself from Yao Xiaotian, staring at him intently, not daring to relax at all.

"Hmph! Waste!"

Yao Xiaotian grinned disdainfully and stared at Hun Qing with contempt, acting superior, completely forgetting the fact that he had just relied on his men's self-detonation to escape from Yao Chen and others in a panic.

Then Yao Xiaotian glanced sideways at the open space next to him. When he got so close, Yao Xiaotian could clearly feel that there was a barrier in this open space, which should be used for hiding.

"The ancient Bodhi tree is indeed here. I guess someone important from your Soul Palace is trying to seize the opportunity inside." Yao Xiaotian guessed so with a grim smile on his face, "But since I'm here, this opportunity belongs to me!"

As he spoke, Yao Xiaotian raised his hand towards the barrier and began to gather fighting spirit in his palm.

"stop!"

Seeing this scene, Hun Qing's face turned pale with fright, and he even ignored the difference in strength between himself and Yao Xiaotian and rushed forward. However, Yao Xiaotian ignored him and continued to do as he pleased, bombarding the barrier with all his gathered fighting spirit.

boom! ! !
Following a violent explosion, the empty air turned into a void with dense cracks, and finally shattered in the eyes of Hun Qing's horror and Yao Xiaotian's complacent eyes. The next moment, a huge and ancient tree suddenly appeared in the open space, and Yao Xiaotian's eyes were immediately filled with greed.

This is the real ancient Bodhi tree! I finally found it!

However, just as Yao Xiaotian's joy was rising, a long and slow question sounded here.

"There are really enough people who come to disturb us today."

Just by hearing the voice, Yao Xiaotian's heart trembled violently, and he felt his hair stand on end. He froze in place for a moment, and his gaze moved downwards from the ancient Bodhi tree in horror. He saw a group of men in black whose attire was similar to that of the Soul Palace, but whose aura was obviously dozens of times stronger than those of the Soul Envoys outside.

In front of these black-clothed men, at the place closest to the ancient Bodhi tree, a woman with long black hair stood there, slightly raised her head, and looked at Yao Xiaotian with scarlet eyes, revealing a hint of displeasure in her eyes. But it was just this hint of displeasure, but it made Yao Xiaotian feel that his blood instantly ran cold!

Strong!
The most powerful!
The most powerful being who cannot be described!
She is such a powerful person that even running away from her is a luxury!!!
Not to mention that Yao Xiaotian no longer had any subordinates who could self-destruct around him at this moment, even if he did, he would absolutely not dare to move at all!
He could still struggle to escape in front of Yao Chen and others, but forget about it in front of this woman!

And just as Yao Xiaotian was terrified, Hun Duan and others below were staring blankly at Yao Xiaotian in the air, their eyes filled with fear.

I am confused! What is this guy doing? ! !
Hun Feng had just angered the clan leader, and how come it hadn't been that long, and someone else had broken the barrier again? !

Hun Duan clearly remembered Yun Ying's instructions not to allow anyone to disturb her. What on earth does this guy want to do? ! !

"I am incompetent! I beg the clan leader to forgive me!"

Hunqing's face was also pale, and he seemed to have forgotten even the severe pain of losing a piece of flesh and blood. He quickly fell to the ground and knelt in front of Yunying, his head pressed against the ground, his body trembling constantly, and he had even prepared his last words in his heart.

Keep an eye on the barrier. This was the order Yunying gave herself, but she failed to do it. If she didn't die, even Hunqing felt it was inappropriate.

What? You said Yao Xiaotian is too strong to handle?

Get lost! It has nothing to do with this!
The order Yunying gave was a death order. You had to do it no matter whether you could do it or not. If you couldn’t, you would die!
Yunying, who was watching Yao Xiaotian, heard Hunqing's apology, lowered her head slightly and glanced at Hunqing, then slowly spoke after a while.

"You are right, get up."

It must be said that although Yunying is an erratic tyrant in the eyes of others, it has to be said that Yunying herself is quite reasonable.

After all, asking a late-stage two-star Douluo to block a late-stage three-star Douluo is simply asking too much. Hun Qing is not Xiao Yan, so how could he have such incredible fighting power?

Eh? You're letting me go now?

Hun Qing's mind was confused, and he suddenly felt like he had survived a calamity, but he did not dare to delay at all.

"Thank you, patriarch!"

Then Hunqing stood up without delay. Yunying said, "You should stand up, but if you are still kneeling on the ground, you are really seeking death."

Yunying withdrew her gaze from Hunqing, and looked again at Yao Xiaotian who dared not move in the air, and spoke with a slight smile.

"This gentleman, you must be from the Nine Netherworld Python clan, right? May I ask what brings you here?"

"me."

When Yao Xiaotian heard Yunying's question, he felt unwell. His mouth trembled as he tried to speak, but he couldn't even say a complete sentence. In his confused mind, all he could think about was Hunqing's words of apology to Yunying.

Clan leader? This guy called that woman the clan leader? Isn't Hunmiesheng a man?

No, no! Hun Miesheng is the Palace Master! The clan leader should be talking about the Soul Clan behind the Soul Palace!
Wait?! The leader of the Soul Clan?!
No??? Why is she, a leader of the Soul Clan, running here?! For a ride???

While Yao Xiaotian was brainstorming, the smile on Yunying's face remained unchanged.

But, in the next second.
boom!
One of Yao Xiaotian's arms instantly turned into nothingness. The intense pain instantly woke Yao Xiaotian up, but he didn't even dare to scream. He looked at Yunying with even more fear, and the latter slowly spoke again.

"I am sincerely asking you, Your Excellency. I am afraid it would be rude of you to ignore me like this."

This is the strongest person standing at the top of the continent! Yao Xiaotian absolutely believes that as long as Yunying has that intention, he can be wiped out without even moving his hands!

Yao Xiaotian came back to his senses from the raging waves, and quickly stretched out his only remaining arm forward, answering in horror.

"I came here for the ancient Bodhi tree, but I didn't know you were here. I'm leaving now!"

Under normal circumstances, someone around Yunying should stand up and shout loudly at Yao Xiaotian at this time, but no one dared to do so at this moment, including Hun Duan.

As I said, if Yunying doesn't say anything, then don't do anything. Yunying doesn't care whether you are trying to show loyalty or not. The end of acting on your own will be death.

Hearing Yao Xiaotian's answer, Yunying nodded as if she understood.

“I see.” Yunying then narrowed her eyes, and the smile on her face became even more dazzling, but in Yao Xiaotian’s eyes it was even more terrifying. “I’m sorry, the opportunity to obtain the ancient Bodhi tree has already been taken. Please wait for the next opportunity.”

"Yes! Yes! It should! It should!"

Yao Xiaotian nodded hurriedly, and then Yunying slowly raised a hand under his horrified gaze.

"It may be difficult for you to leave alone in your current state. After all, there are many fierce beasts here." As he spoke, Yunying's fingers circled slightly, and a space door opened next to Yao Xiaotian. "This is the portal to the Nine Netherworld Python Realm. You can go back directly. It's our apology."

"Thank you for your gift, sir!"

Yao Xiaotian hurriedly expressed his thanks and without caring whether the portal was really the way back, he dived straight in.

No matter where it is, even hell, as long as I can get away from this woman!

Hun Duan and the others were also stunned when they saw this scene. Did Yun Ying really let Yao Xiaotian leave like this? Was their clan leader easy to talk to or not?
However, although everyone was full of doubts, no one dared to ask unless they were tired of living.

After Yao Xiaotian entered the portal, when the portal closed, Yunying slowly lowered her head and glanced at Hunduan. The latter immediately understood and hurriedly clasped his fists to Zheng Sheng.

"Please rest assured, Chief! We will set up a barrier to protect you this time, and we will not let anyone disturb you!"

"Well, that's my problem."

Yunying smiled slightly and turned to face the ancient Bodhi tree again. Hunduan did not dare to delay at all and called on his men to set up a barrier around the ancient Bodhi tree again. Everyone stood guard outside the barrier, leaving only Yunying inside the barrier.
On the other side, the territory of the Nine Netherworld Python.

Yao Xiaotian, who had just returned through the portal, stood in mid-air with a dull look in his eyes.

And below him, at a glance, there were densely packed corpses of Nine Nether Earth Pythons and blood. (End of this chapter)
