Chapter 4: The Daoist

Translator: StackThatCoin Editor: Hitesh_

Everything happened so suddenly, and before the three of them could see exactly what the green lights were, they had flown away at an incredible speed.

The heads that were severed by the green lights were still rolling in midair. Before the heads touched the ground, a bright light flashed from behind the passage, followed by a loud thunder bang that struck one’s ears. All three of them trembled and their clothes were torn apart by a tremendous force. The force pushed them down and made them roll into the huge stone room at the end of the passage, making them spit out blood along the way.

Wu Wang’s vision was sharp, and he could barely see that what had just attacked them was a lightning bolt the size of an arm. The lightning bolt was both green and red, and about two to three meters long, but its power was equal to that of a small bomb. The three of them who were hit by the lightning were sent rolling into the room without any chance of resisting.

Supporting himself with great effort as he stood up, Wu Wang shouted out fiercely and asked, “Who is that?!”

A chuckle was heard from afar, then an appealing and silvery voice sounded out to them.

“All mortals envy the immortals. Green Lotus Root and Fiery Jujube is treated as food. The jade liquid nourishes the growth of white tea, the success of the Water and Fire Pill shines upon the purple clouds.”

Following the reading of the daoist poem, a young daoist wearing a purple robe walked in arrogantly. On both his chest and his back were the eight trigrams stitched with silver lining, and a gorgeous pattern filled his robe and sleeves. Behind this young daoist were eight middle aged daoists dressed in green, who followed him closely. Each of them had their eyes pointing towards the skies, portraying an unparalleled arrogance.

It was as if in their minds, Wu Wang, Le Xiaobai and Wu Qi were just some ants they could simply kill with a squeeze, not really worth their attention.

Wu Qi focused his vision, jumped up from where he laid and drew the Dragon Abyss sword out from its sheath. It brought forth a sword beam, stabbing towards the heart of the daoist in the purple robe.

“A rice sized pearl like you, still trying to shine!”

The purple robe daoist had a scornful expression and a teasing smile. He casually pointed his finger, sending a dazzling white beam out from his sleeve. The white beam directly collided with the sword beam that was unleashed with Wu Qi’s full strength. A crystal clear impact sounded out as the Dragon Abyss sword was blown into pieces. Wu Qi felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His body trembled, and he was sent flying far away by the white beam, hitting the ground with his head so that he lost all ability to move.

Wu Qi immediately felt half his body becoming numb. The white beam was only about one meter long, but it was covered with an extreme coldness. When the Dragon Abyss sword collided with the white beam, it was like hitting a huge mountain. The white beam didn’t suffer any damage, but Wu Qi almost broke all his bones.

His inner vital energy was shattered by the white beam. His body felt like had broken into several pieces. Wu Qi laid on the floor without even the ability to move his toe.

Shangguan Ye came into the room while leading a group of Underhand Sect disciples behind him with a villainous smile on his face. Looking at Shangguan Ye’s rosy cheeks and his arms that were moving freely without any problems, it was obvious that the inner vital energy and cultivation base that was destroyed by Wu Qi had now fully restored, and the nerves that were cut were now fully recovered as well.

Wu Qi was startled. He was the one who personally carried out the sentence on Shangguan Ye, so of course he knew how serious the wounds he caused were. Shangguan Ye, who was supposed to lay on a sickbed, had now fully recovered. Impossibly enough, the wounds on his nerves had been cured as well.

Shangguan Ye fiercely gazed at Wu Qi, pointed his finger at him while spewing out words from his tightly clenched teeth, “Little bastard, I told you, you would all die soon!”

Few of Shangguan Ye’s trusted disciples walked over to Wu Qi’s side with evil smiles on their faces, then started kicking and punching Wu Qi.

Wu Qi, who was now able to move again, protected his head with his hands. He stretched himself and let these men attack him. Without anyone noticing, he had quietly taken out the Underhand Sect’s Sect Leader token from the secret pocket on his belt. He used the muscles on his waist, thigh and leg like water and quietly hid the Sect Elder token in his boot, at the bottom of his feet.

This was almost an instinct to him.

When Wu Qi saw Shangguan Ye walking towards the stone chamber, he had started this action. When Shangguan Ye’s trusted disciples started hitting him, he had managed to carefully hide the Sect Leader token inside his boot.

Sure enough, after Shangguan Ye shouted and scolded Wu Qi, he immediately walked over to Wu Wang and started searching his body.

Wu Wang glared at the purple robed daoist and said with a cold grin, “Shangguan Ye, are you blind?! Look, I’m only wearing boxers, why the fuck are you still touching me? What could I possibly hide on my body as I am now?!”

Shangguan Ye clenched his palm over at Wu Wang’s neck. He roared out loud while asking, “Sect Leader token?! Where is the token?!”

Wu Wang laughed out loud. He shook his head and said, “Sect Leader token? I hid it in Swiss Bank’s safety vault!”

Shangguan Ye was obviously stunned by this. He stared at Wu Wang and shouted, “The Underhand Sect’s rules state that the Sect Leader token must be carried with the Sect Leader at all times! This is the rule set down by the founding grandmaster, why would you hide it in a safety vault?!”

Wu Wang rolled his eyes. He glared at Shangguan Ye while laughing, “I can do whatever I want! Not happy? Then you can kiss my ass!”

The purple robed daoist swung his sleeve and a clear ‘slap’ sound rang through the air. He had slapped Wu Wang’s face from afar. Blood sprayed out from Wu Wang’s face, as the purple robed daoist slap had almost crushed Wu Wang’s cheek bone. A big chunk of flesh was ripped off, and fresh blood poured out.

“Unruly mortal, unbelievable!”

The purple robed daoist stared at Wu Wang from the corner of his eyes, coldly teasing him, “You’re going to die… How dare you be so stubborn and arrogant?! Hmph!”

Wu Wang spat out some blood. He stared at the purple robed daoist with a grin, “Sir, what immortal are you? Unruly mortal? Hehe, we’re all mortals here, what kind of superior being do you think you are?”

The purple robed daoist showed a face that was too lazy to respond to Wu Wang. He turned his head towards Shangguan Ye and ordered him with a stiff expression, “Since they put so much effort into finding this Dimensional Portal, there’s no need to torture them too much. Just let them die in peace.”

Shangguan Ye answered in a respectful manner. He threw Wu Wang down onto the floor and forcefully stepped on his stomach, destroyed all inner vital energy Wu Wang had restlessly cultivated for many years. Then he pointed towards the purple robed daoist and said with a sneer, “I’ll let you know this before you die. This is Little Daoist Miao Yuan from the Green City Mountain, the last disciple of Elder Daoist Zhiji Zi of the Green City Mountain!”

The purple robed daoist put both his hands behind his back in a reserved manner, portraying a look of a man from another world. However, his eyes expressed an extreme joy as he stared at the peculiar objects in the huge stone chamber beneath this mountain.

Wu Wang, Le Xiaobai and Wu Qi also looked at the peculiar objects in the chamber at the same time.

Right after the metal door was opened, the three of them had discovered that the objects in the chamber couldn’t be explained with common knowledge. From their experience and knowledge, they knew that they had discovered something really extraordinary.

Too bad things changed too fast. Shangguan Ye unexpectedly brought Daoist Miao Yuan here, so Wu Qi and the rest didn’t have the time to study what exactly was in there, and now were facing their doom. Faced with the miraculous abilities of Daoist Miao Yuan and the rest of the daoists, they didn’t stand a chance at resisting.

It was unknown whether it was the work of nature or some human who made this. Underneath the mountain of Machu Picchu, someone excavated this sphere chamber that spanned almost a kilometer in diameter. This huge space stood on its own; its walls were smooth as mirrors, and it was hard to imagine that this sphere space was man-made. It is something that only technology that didn’t yet exist could accomplish.

On the smooth and bright surface of the wall, hundreds of thousands of thumb sized pearls and gemstones were paved in. A variety of colors were shining brightly, forming a complicated star map on the wall of the mountain. When staring at this star map, as time went by, the gem stones would shine brightly and make one feel as if this star map was quietly circulating. It was both amazing and unbelievable.

Under the colorful shine of the star map, an item that couldn’t be explained nor understood was floating in midair.

Three hundred and sixty pieces of fine white tallow jade were floating on top of it, forming a sphere shaped array approximately three hundred meters in diameter. These jades with the length of about four meters, a width of about two meters, and thickness of about fifty centimeters were carved with numerous complicated runes. In between these runes, thousands of shining fist sized objects filled the gaps.

These huge tallow jades were floating in midair without any movement. Occasionally, some arm sized streams of light would shoot out from these jades and zap into other nearby jades.

At the center of all these jade was a round golden platform. On the platform, numerous runes were carved in as well, and three hundred and sixty shining gem stones the size of a human head were inlaid on the platform itself. An ancient aura was being indistinctly emitted from this golden platform. When everyone looked at it, it felt like they were watching ancient history itself in front of them.

Wu Qi who was being beaten suddenly started laughing out loud and said, “Master, we’ve found something incredible!”

Shangguan Ye walked towards him and forcefully stepped on his head. With a grin, he said, “It is me who found this thing, it has nothing to do with you!”

Before he finished his words, Daoist Miao Yuan snorted coldly.

Shangguan Ye hurriedly altered his statement and said, “It is because of Daoist Miao Yuan’s divine plan that we were able to find the clues that lead to this Dimensional Portal. All of you are nothing but chess pieces in the Daoist’s hands… He used you all as if you were just mere tools! You even helped the Daoist clear all those traps before this door!”

Bowing and smiling as he tried to flatter Miao Yuan, Shangguan Ye continued, “All of this was planned by the Daoist! Now you can all die here in peace.”

After listening to Shangguan Ye’s flattering, Daoist Miao Yuan showed a faint smile. He shook his head proudly and said, “Never mind, never mind! They are just some mortals. Being calculative with them is not needed with my status and dignity. Shangguan Ye, just let them be ghosts who can understand it all!”

Only after another round flattering, Shangguan Ye started proudly explaining the reason for everything that had happened to Wu Wang, Le Xiaobai and Wu Qi.

In fact, before Wu Wang joined the Underhand Sect, Shangguan Ye had already sold himself to Miao Yuan, and had become his henchman long ago. Previously when Shangguan Ye had continuously stolen dozens of rich families’ treasures and heirloom, he had actually been following Daoist Miao Yuan’s orders. Those rich families would never dream that their heirlooms were considered rare treasures to a cultivator like Daoist Miao Yuan.

That was right, Daoist Miao Yuan was a cultivator who only existed in legend, one of the cultivators who was chasing immortality, aiming to break through this realm and become an immortal.

Shangguan Ye was fighting for the Sect Leader position with Wu Wang but failed miserably. After that, he immediately activated the communicative crane talisman that Daoist Miao Yuan had given him, then requested help from him. He was given a great miraculous pill that restored his cultivation and also cured his nerves.

After kicking Wu Wang forcefully a few times, Shangguan Ye said with a grin, “If it wasn’t for the Daoist’s mercy after discovering that the golden plate in your hand held the clue that he was searching for, who would have let you come to Machu Picchu? Your dog head would already have been severed several months ago by a flying sword if he didn’t show mercy!”

Daoist Miao Yuan was also searching for a clue on the golden plate?

Le Xiaobai, who was being held hostage by some of Shangguan Ye’s trusted disciples, turned his head with great difficulty and glanced at the huge metal door.

Shangguan Ye gazed at Le Xiaobai, and suddenly he started laughing and walking towards him. He then fiercely punched Le Xiaobai in his stomach.

Le Xiaobai opened his mouth and spat out some blood mixed with small pieces of his internal organs. His body was incredibly weak, and there was no way he could resist Shangguan Ye’s fierce punch. This punch alone had taken away half of Le Xiaobai’s life.

Glaring at Shangguan Ye who was venting his anger on Wu Wang and the rest, Daoist Miao Yin said after some time, “Alright, Shangguan Ye. You’ll be the Sect Leader of the Underhand Sect after this.”

Laughing in satisfaction, Daoist Miao Yuan spoke once again while wagging his head, “Master sent all the disciples of our sect out to search for this Dimensional Portal, but I’m the one who found it first! Not only did I find the clue, but I also witnessed the Dimensional Portal itself!”

An emotional sigh left Daoist Miao Yuan’s mouth as he narrowed his eyes while smiling, and continued saying, “The position of Green City Leader is now in my hands!”

Pointing at Wu Wang and the other two, Daoist Miao Yuan said in a cold manner, “Just nice, the ‘Grand Heavenly Circulation Positioning Talisman’ requires the portal to be activated before it can provide a destination. Wouldn’t it just be boring if the portal is activated without doing anything?”

While instructing Shangguan Ye to place Wu Wang and the other two men onto the huge golden platform right in the middle of the portal, Daoist Miao Yuan started laughing out loud.

“Being able to die in this miraculous ancient portal, being killed by the tremendous force of nature… nobodies like you should all be considered lucky!”

Still laughing, Daoist Miao Yuan shot a golden beam out from his sleeve, hitting the golden platform.
