Volume 2: Heavenly Sword Tomb Chapter 66: Nine Extinction Dao Person

  Although nailed to the ground by a long sword, a lot of blood had flowed out. In addition, their cultivation was sealed, making it impossible for Tao Hui and the other two to use their cultivation to withstand the pain. However, all three of them were still very clear-headed. They were very aware of what was happening around them. The conversation between Jiang Feng and the other two cultivators earlier, they had also heard.

  Perhaps it was because of seeing Jiang Feng that the two cultivators who attacked him were let go, and Tao Hui's three people all breathed a sigh of relief. They thought that if they said some good words, Jiang Feng would spare them.

  "You three, do you still want to pretend? Those two just said that they came to catch me after hearing your conversation. I think you won't say that you didn't notice those two people." Jiang Feng said while fiddling with his fingers, as if muttering to himself. His gaze was only on his own fingers, without looking at Tao Hui and the other three.

  Upon hearing Jiang Feng's words, Tao Hui and the other two knew it was their turn. At this point, not to mention Feng San and Ma Renyi, even Tao Hui had no intention of continuing to deceive Jiang Feng. In their hearts, they all felt that telling the truth would increase their chances of survival.

  "Jiang Daoyou was kind enough to spare us. We were the ones who were wrong. We shouldn't have been greedy for the reward of the Five Elements Sword Sect, and we shouldn't have plotted against Jiang Daoyou." Tao Hui said.

  Jiang Feng thought to himself, "I knew it was the three of you who brought those two people over earlier. You weren't sure if you could handle me yourself, so you wanted to bring in two cultivators of the same level to test me out. This kind of trick is too low-level."

  "Let's get down to business, those two monks said almost the same thing earlier. You brought them here to test me, I'm aware of that too. Let's not talk about this anymore, let's discuss something else." Jiang Feng said.

  "What else? What other things?" Tao Hui said, looking somewhat bewildered.

  "You don't know? If you don't know, I can help you remember, but if I do, it will hurt." Jiang Feng said.

  When Jiang Feng said this, Tao Hui and the other two were shocked in their hearts, and all three of them looked a little scared. Tao Hui also quickly turned his mind, thinking about what Jiang Feng was asking. As it turned out, after thinking carefully, Tao Hui really thought of something.

  "Jiang Daoyou is asking why we were chasing Daoyou before?" Tao Hui said. His tone was a probing one, wanting to see Jiang Feng's reaction before continuing with the rest of what he had to say.

  Jiang Feng didn't look at them and didn't speak. He was busy filling his tobacco pouch with tobacco threads, completely ignoring Tao Hui and the others as if they didn't exist.

  Seeing Jiang Feng like this, Tao Hui calmed down. He continued: "We went to chase Daoist friends because we knew that Daoist friends had obtained something. That thing should be a black snake biting a pearl. Now that it's come to this, we won't hide from Daoist friends anymore. We also have one of the same things. These two black snakes were originally supposed to be a pair. We also unintentionally got one. After studying it, I think this thing might be related to the tomb of the scattered immortals. After investigating, we only found out that there should be another snake. So we came all the way looking for it. By the time we rushed over, the thing had already been taken away by Daoist Jiang. That's why we chased after you."

  "Immortal? Immortals shouldn't be in the mortal realm, how can their tombs appear here. Could it be that immortals are so unwelcome in the immortal realm that even after death they get discarded?" Jiang Feng said.

  In this world, when a cultivator is cultivating immortality and fails to achieve success, they can switch to cultivating as a loose immortal. For example, during the tribulation of transcendence, if one is about to fail, they can dissolve their body and cultivate as a loose immortal. When encountering a fatal blow and being on the verge of death, one can also abandon their physical body and cultivate as a loose immortal. To put it simply, when a cultivator's physical body is destroyed, cultivating as a loose immortal is easier than finding another body.

  All cultivators who reach the True Soul realm can convert to a Loose Immortal. After becoming a Loose Immortal, they will also ascend to the immortal realm. However, their starting hand is slightly weaker than that of normal ascended cultivators. Moreover, every thousand years, they have to go through a Great Heavenly Tribulation. Each tribulation is more severe than the last. This means that one day, the Loose Immortals will die under the heavenly tribulations.

  Scattered Immortals are also in the Realm of the Gods, so after they die, if there is a tomb, it can only be in the Realm of the Gods. Moreover, Scattered Immortals rarely have tombs. Because most of them were reduced to ashes and annihilated by the Heavenly Tribulation.

  "Jiang Daoyou doesn't know, but a long time ago, immortals would often descend to the mortal realm. Some even died in the mortal realm. There were even some immortals who would move their own graves to the mortal realm. This is because in the mortal realm, it's very difficult for cultivators to break open an immortal's grave. The black snake that we three discovered this time may be related to the legend of the Nine Extinct Dao People." Tao Hui said.

  "What's with the Nine Extinct Paths? What's going on?" Jiang Feng asked in confusion.

  A sentence of ignorance came from beside my ear, that was the voice of Lan Wu. It seems that Lan Wu had heard of the Nine Extinction Daoist. After Tao Hui heard Jiang Feng's words, what he thought in his heart, Jiang Feng didn't know. But presumably he also said that Jiang Feng was ignorant. Tao Hui also hastily spoke about this Nine Extinction Daoist.

  Jiū Miè Dào Rén was a title given after becoming an immortal, and what he was originally called is now unknown. This person was originally a famous cultivator in the cultivation world. At that time, his strength was second to none, and no one dared to claim first place. With such unparalleled cultivation, it was certain that he would ascend to immortality. However, no one could have imagined that Jiū Miè Dào Rén had already fallen before crossing the tribulation.

  Some people say that Jiemi Daoist has gone mad from practicing, while others claim that he was crippled by a passing immortal or a Mahayana cultivator. Whatever the reason may be, after Jiemi Daoist's defeat, he began to cultivate as a loose immortal and quickly succeeded in transcending his tribulation, ascending to the realm of immortals.

  Ten thousand years later, when people gradually forgot about the Nine Extinction Daoist, he suddenly reappeared in the mortal realm. At that time, it was already very rare to see immortals in the mortal realm. Even loose immortals who liked to descend into the world were nowhere to be seen.

  After Jiemi Daoist descended to the mortal world, several other immortals also came down. They were all chasing after Jiemi Daoist. However, they ended up being eliminated by Jiemi Daoist instead. No one knew why the immortals wanted to kill Jiemi Daoist, nor did anyone know why there were no subsequent pursuers. In fact, from that time on, it was impossible to see any immortals in the mortal world again.

  After killing the immortal, the Nine Extinction Daoist also died soon after. Before his death, he built a large tomb for himself and left behind a will, saying that apart from countless treasures hidden in the tomb, it also contained all that he had learned in his life. Whoever could obtain them would be able to inherit his legacy.

  Not to mention the Nine Extinction Daoist's clothes and alms bowl, just talking about those treasures inside, these things are all immortal artifacts, how can people not be moved. All the cultivators in the mortal world have been searching for the tomb of the Nine Extinction Daoist. Indeed, some clues have appeared, and there are even rumors that someone has entered, but unfortunately did not come out alive.

  Up to now, the Nine Extinction Daoist has become a legend, and his tomb has naturally become a legend as well. It's been several tens of thousands of years since anyone last searched for the Nine Extinction Daoist's tomb. If that black snake biting onto the pearl is really related to the Nine Extinction Daoist, then it would be a treasure indeed.

  After hearing about the Nine Extinction Daoist's affairs, Jiang Feng only then knew that the black snake was actually related to a scattered immortal's grave. If this were to be spread out and others were to know he had the black snake, it would absolutely be more frightening than the Five Elements Sword Sect's Heavenly Gate Order.

  Seeing Jiang Feng sitting there without speaking, Tao Hui and the others were nervous. They didn't know if Jiang Feng would let them off or not.

  Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, then reached out and grabbed the storage bags from Tao Hui and his two companions. Inside Tao Hui's bag, he found a black snake with a pearl in its mouth, which looked exactly like Jiang Feng's own snake. Without examining it closely, Jiang Feng put it away and stood up.

  "Everything that needs to be known has been figured out. The three of you can also leave." Jiang Feng said as he stood up.

  As soon as these words came out, Tao Hui and his two companions panicked. They had all already figured it out, Jiang Feng was going to kill the three of them.

  "Jiang Daoyou can't, you let them go before, why can't you let us go? Please spare our lives, Jiang Daoyou." Tao Hui said. Feng San and Ma Renyi also started begging for mercy.

  Jiang Feng sneered and said, "Those two people earlier, before they made their move, said they would take me back to the Five Elements Sword Sect. I didn't agree, so they took action. Whether it was for the reward from the Five Elements Sword Sect or the treasure on my body, I can understand that. They even apologized and had a good attitude, and I also needed them to spread some news. But I don't need you three to spread any news. Moreover, it was you three who led those two here, so you are the main culprits. And what's more, you know about the Black Snake Sculpture incident. Can I let you three go?"

  The words had just fallen, and the three of Tao Hui still had a terrified look in their eyes, without saying anything, Jiang Feng had already made his move. When the three heads fell to the ground, the bodies of the three Tao Huis also burst into flames.
