Aspiring to the Immortal Path

Taken by surprise, the Violet Palace cultivator quickly stabilized himself. Just as he was wondering why the hill had disappeared, Tang Jie used Nearby Horizon to appear at his side.

Before the cultivator could react, Tang Jie seized him by the throat, upon which the cultivator found that he couldn't resist.

Tang Jie said, "How many people came with you, what's their cultivation level, what treasures did they bring, and what is their objective? If you tell me, I'll spare your life."

As he spoke, this cultivator attempted as many as eighteen methods in a row to try and break free, but they all failed. On the contrary, the more he struggled, the tighter the restraint became. After finding that all escape attempts had failed, he finally said in panic, "Five… five people!"

"Lying will be punished by a severed arm," Tang Jie said, tearing off one of the cultivator's arms.

The pain left the cultivator wanting to die, but Tang Jie prevented him from healing the wound. He could only shout, "Nine people! Five Earth Immortals and four True Lords."

He began to give the name and cultivation level of each person.

"…We came on the orders of our ancestors to interrogate you on the criminal who killed the disciples of our sects," the cultivator fearfully said.

Tang Jie chuckled. "You think there's someone behind me?"

Tang Jie coldly replied, "It wouldn't be harder than dealing with five Earth Immortals."

The cultivator was stunned. "Could you really have singlehandedly…"

"Correct answer," Tang Jie said, closing his fist and blowing the cultivator to pieces. Before the flesh could fully erupt, he sent the remains through the passage and back to the Yellow Court World.

It just so happened that the Immortals arrived at this time. One of them reached out, only to grab a corpse in the middle of exploding, which showered them all in gore.

"Bastard, you dare!" Flowing Wind bellowed in fury.

He shot a ray of dark light from his finger at Tang Jie, but there was simply a clang as Tang Jie moved to retreat, acting as if nothing had happened.

"Stay right there!" Jade Truth turned into a beam of light and charged into the passage. But he was much more careful than Mou Siming, applying barriers before entering. Through the passage, he found himself in a desolate area, and Tang Jie was in the distance, swiftly flying away.

"Don't even think about escaping!" Jade Truth roared, a horsetail whisk appearing in his hand and swinging at Tang Jie. The threads of the whisk grew larger and lengthened, turning into a jade dragon that sought to coil around Tang Jie.

Tang Jie turned and punched at the whisk dragon, the impact setting off a powerful shockwave. While Tang Jie was knocked back with a groan, the jade dragon was scattered into three thousand threads, though they still sought to coil around Tang Jie.

This whisk was the divine treasure that Jade Truth usually used as a weapon. Though it wasn't a Dao armament, it had many wondrous uses.

As the whisk threads coiled around him, Tang Jie blinked away. At this time, Origin Defender and the Flame Celestial Sovereign arrived and attacked.

But as the Flame Celestial Sovereign was about to attack, Flowing Wind stopped him. "Take him alive!"

And then his Genesis Cloud extinguished the Flame Celestial Sovereign's Origin Flame.

At the same time, Origin Defender grabbed at Tang Jie with a draconic claw. He hated Tang Jie for forcing him to destroy his Dao armament, so he didn't hold back. Even if he had to take Tang Jie alive, he was going to heavily injure Tang Jie first.

Tang Jie simply used Nearby Horizon to dodge.

"The Dao of Space!" Flowing Wind's eyes flashed.

He had heard of this kid's numerous Dao Arts from the Flame Celestial Sovereign. He hadn't put much stock in his claims at first, but now it seemed that it was true, and this Space Dao Art was even one of those that the Flame Celestial Sovereign didn't know about.

Even so, he still shouted at Tang Jie, "Tang Jie, hurry and surrender. If you hand over the schemer behind you, we will spare your life on account of your talent!"

Tang Jie chuckled. "Sir thinks you can win?"

Flowing Wind snorted. "You really think you can win against the combined might of five Earth Immortals?"

Tang Jie coldly said, "When your people tried to take my treasure, they said the same thing, but now they're all fertilizer for my Yellow Court World. I really have to thank them. Without these two hundred Violet Palace experts, my Yellow Court World would have never come this far. But it seems that greater glory will require the blood and bone of a few Immortals. I will use your lives to fulfill this."

As Tang Jie spoke, he presented the crystal ball in his hand.

The crystal ball spun, and the clear image became muddled once more.

The two worlds were merging, and as the image in the ball changed, everyone found that the terrain changed with it.

It was no longer a single world around them, but countless overlapping images resulting from the merging worlds.

Everything became fantastical in this overlap, and it became impossible to tell what was real and what was fake, what was on the surface and what was beneath.

This was not a mere image, but reality.

Strange things appeared on the meadow. A mountain appeared out of nowhere, but only half of it, as if the other half had been lopped off. A river had originally run where the mountain had appeared, and now this river was coming straight out of the mountain, with no sign of its upstream source.

The river appeared midway, but one could see several large fish swimming about the now river-less meadow. Yes, these fish flew through the air as if it was water. As they swam along, the river suddenly reappeared, continuing its winding course.

In the sky, half a bird was flapping its wing, flying through plants and mountains as if they weren't there.

"What is this?" everyone asked in unison.

"Broken Mirror," Tang Jie replied.

"What?" The answer merely confused them.

Tang Jie proclaimed, "The name of this formation is 'Broken Mirror'. I created it myself. Mighty Titans, please point out any mistakes."

Tang Jie flew away, ignoring the Immortals.

Just as the Immortals were about to give chase, Flowing Wind shouted, "Don't move!"

He took out a talisman and threw it into the air. This talisman turned into a boar and rushed forward. But it didn't make it far before there was a flash of light, and the boar split into two and reverted back into two halves of a talisman.

Flowing Wind's eyes flashed with shock, and he shouted, "Spatial fissures! These are spatial fissures! Everyone, don't make any reckless movements!"
