Immortal Skills - Chapter 513
513 Don’t Stand in My Way
Human sacrifices?
Jiang Ming’s eyelids twitched a few times. Although this was the world of immortal cultivation, where strength was paramount, there were also some people who would be unimaginably cruel.
Was this still a practice?
“The matter of human sacrifices is very likely related to an evil supreme-ruler.”
The black sword’s voice came out and stunned Jiang Ming.
“What do you mean?”
“The evil supreme-rulers refer to a type of supreme-ruler,” the black sword explained patiently. “Although I haven’t found any other supreme-rulers in your era, it doesn’t mean that they don’t exist. Perhaps they still exist outside the Feather Kingdom. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be legends of the Great Desolate Land and the Great Desolate Barbarian God.”
Jiang Ming nodded subconsciously when he heard the black sword’s words. Then, he thought of something and took a deep breath. “You mean to say that the royal family of Northern Yan has always been related to an evil supreme-ruler?”
“It might not be the Northern Yan’s royal family. It could also be the owner of this General’s Tomb… Bro, ask this kid about the situation of the owner of this place.”
Jiang Ming nodded and immediately looked at Tuoba Kui. “How much do you know about the General’s Tomb?”
“I don’t know much. However, I do know much more than you. The owner of the General’s Tomb wasn’t Murong Beiyan’s man from the beginning, but the descendant of a general of the Helian Xia Empire, and also a young and promising general of the Helian Xia Empire. However, in these kinds of battles, there will always be problems. In the end, this young general’s family was slaughtered… What was interesting was that this young general actually escaped and became a subordinate of the Northern Yan Dynasty’s founding emperor. He rose up step by step, killing many enemies on the battlefield and earning a stellar reputation. He laid the foundation for the establishment of the Northern Yan Dynasty and was conferred the title of Great General. He was one of the Six Pillars of Northern Yan and was known as Xu Rentu by the people!”
Xu Rentu?
This time, Rao Wuqing exclaimed in surprise, “Was it Xu Rentu who once went straight for the enemy and almost destroyed the entirety of the Helian Xia Empire?”
Jiang Ming glanced over and frowned.
What was going on? Why did he not know anything about this?
At this moment, Rao Wuqing explained, “Xu Rentu’s full name is Xu Renxiao. He’s a ruthless person! During a war with the Helian Xia royal family, he killed hundreds of thousands of their soldiers in one go!”
At this moment, Tuoba Kui suddenly jumped up.
“I remember now! I told you that the armor of the soldiers that appeared at the rear was a little unfamiliar. It was not the armor of Northern Yan. Now that I think about it, it seems to be the uniform of the soldiers of Helian Xia!”
At this moment, the entire place was dead silent.
Was the burial ground of the Great General of the Northern Yan Dynasty actually hiding the deceased soldiers of Helian Xia?
Rao Wuqing gritted his teeth as he said with an ugly expression, “If it’s the Helian Xia soldiers, I’m afraid everyone here will be in trouble. You have to know that during the reign of the last emperor of Helian Xia, the strength of the country was declining. However, the strength of the Helian Xia soldiers reached tyrannical heights. They constantly fought wars. They had long become a terrifying army with a fierce reputation… If it wasn’t for the fact that there were so many forces restraining Helian Xia, Northern Yan would never have established a country!”
As an elder of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land, Rao Wuqing had a deep understanding of this matter.
Jiang Ming took a deep breath and asked slowly, “You mean to say that all the cultivators outside will suffer?”
“That’s right. The strength of the Helian Xia soldiers is too shocking. Not to mention that there are thousands of Helian Xia soldiers outside. I’m afraid that at least eight hundred cultivators have died.”
Those who came this time were at least at the Foundation Establishment Realm. These cultivators were not easy to kill!
Many people wanted to escape. At this time, Jiang Ming saw Gu Chi and his sect members running somewhere discreetly.
Obviously, Gu Chi and his sect members were smart people. They wanted to take advantage of the chaos to reap more benefits.
At this moment, a group of people appeared in front of Gu Chi. Their faces were unfamiliar. However, Jiang Ming knew that they were Wu Ming and the others.
“Let’s go! With Wu Ming and the others covering the rear, Gu Chi and the others won’t be able to enter for a while. Now is the best time for us to fish in troubled waters!”
The corners of Jiang Ming’s mouth could not help but curl up. He led everyone in and rushed in.
At this moment, Gu Chi also saw the strange situation here and his face immediately fell.
“Move aside!”
In the end, a cultivator walked out.
“Move aside? Ridiculous! I’ve been unhappy with your sect for a long time, and now you want us to move aside? Don’t anger me!”
Gu Chi became even more irritable.
“How arrogant! How dare you provoke us? I’ll show you the might of our sect!”
Gu Chi’s expression was extremely cold.
The Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land was once the supreme ruler of the Ancient Kingdom Border Region.
Many regions and countries outside the Feather Kingdom were formed after the fall of the Ancient Kingdom Border Region. It could be said that Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land was still the uncrowned king in this area. No force could provoke it.
The cultivators on their side understood this. However, they still did not care. Jiang Ming asked them to intercept Gu Chi and the others. Therefore, this mission had to be completed properly.
Wu Ming slowly took a step forward and glanced at Protector Li.
“You’re not my opponent, scram!”
Protector Li was furious.
“How impudent! We’re both Soul Formation Realm cultivators. Therefore, why do you think I’m no match for you?”
Protector Li was about to attack. However, Wu Ming continued to laugh coldly. He then took a big step forward, his gaze extremely cold.
“Stop being stupid. If you have the audacity to fight me, then prepare to be killed!”
In the next instant, Wu Ming’s body erupted with an unparalleled might, stunning Protector Li. The latter stared at Wu Ming in disbelief for a long time.
“What is this? Why is your bloodline power so terrifying?”
No one knew that the leader of the Flowerfruit Sect, Wu Ming, was from the royal family of Helian Xia!
In fact, his real name was Helian Bo!
“Everyone who has ever hurt my country will pay! The owner of this place is my first target! Don’t stand in my way!”
