All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

107: Chapter 106 Entering the Ghost Realm, Confronting the Immortals”It is so desolate here.”

The little girl looked around Xingluo Mountain; other than a small hut that had been kept exceptionally clean, there was nothing else there.

”A very important figure used to live here, so don’t look down on it.”

”An important figure? Is she greater than Revered Master?”

Chu Meng arrived at the hut and walked around it several times, but other than a small fish pond, she didn’t find anything remarkable.

”Heh... Her name is Xing Mu. Her status is very high, but when Revered Master first met her, she was just a troubled girl.”

Ye Xiu looked at the hut before him, recalling many events from the past.

At that time, Xing Mu had not yet recovered her memories. Apart from knowing she had to rebuild the Imperial Court, she didn’t have much of a cold mindset.

She was haughty yet innocent.

But ever since he helped her slay her [Past Self].

Xing Mu changed.

That cold indifference that looked down upon all living beings was no longer an emotion a human should possess.

Immortal?

Deity?

Perhaps after endless years, he too would become like Xing Mu and extinguish some of the emotions a human should have.

It wasn’t that they lacked humanity.

It was just that as their Realm increased, their lives would be infinitely extended.

In this life that was like eternity, they would watch batch after batch of familiar people gradually pass away.

From the initial heart-wrenching agony to total numbness—this was the psychological change that Cultivators above the Immortal level needed to experience.

Chu Meng looked at her dazed Revered Master and asked again: ”Revered Master, was the older sister who used to live here your Revered Master’s wife?”

”Revered Master’s wife?”

Ye Xiu shook his head slightly: ”I have no fortune to enjoy the company of that troubled girl.”

The moment he finished speaking, a familiar aura instantly erupted on Xingluo Mountain.

”Ye Xiu, do you want to die?”

Xing Mu’s voice rang out across Xingluo Mountain.

Unspeakable?

Ye Xiu was slightly surprised. Xing Mu had actually reached such a level that even mentioning her name would allow her to sense it.

”Is this the method of the Supreme Realm?”

”Therefore, raise your cultivation as soon as possible. This Queen is still waiting for you to kill a Supreme to resolve our Karma.” Xing Mu’s words were extremely cold.

As her voice faded, the aura also vanished; clearly, Xing Mu was no longer paying attention to this place.

Ye Xiu shook his head helplessly. This woman’s strength had likely already recovered to the Immortal level.

”Revered Master, is that the Revered Master’s wife?”

Chu Meng was a little scared; the aura from just a moment ago was truly too terrifying.

Ye Xiu glanced at the little girl beside him, too lazy to pay her any more mind.

He pointed a finger, and the [Primordial Martial Arts General Outline] was instantly carved into Chu Meng’s Sea of Consciousness.

”This is the basic method to Cultivate; it is enough for you to use for now. There is a Spirit Gathering Array behind the mountain that should still be usable. If you want to Cultivate, go there. If you have any problems, just report Revered Master’s name. I’m leaving.”

With those words, Ye Xiu simply became a hands-off manager and strode away from Xingluo Mountain.

A nameless small mountain.

Death Qi shrouded the entire mountainside.

A not-so-large temple sat on the mountainside, where the Death Qi was the most concentrated.

”This is somewhat interesting.” Looking at the nameless small mountain below, a flash of surprise crossed Ye Xiu’s eyes.

Besides the Death Qi, the black mist was also mixed with quite a bit of grey ominous Qi.

He descended slowly.

He passed through the temple and arrived once again beside the ancient well inside the temple grounds.

This time, he did not go down.

The golden Power of the Radiant Sun radiated from his body, obliterating all Death Qi and ominous Qi.

Watching the temple gradually dissolve, he gave a disdainful cold snort: ”Afraid? Today, I want to see what this so-called Ghost Realm is actually like.”

Boom...

The space shattered, revealing a pitch-black passage.

All the Death Qi was emerging from this passage.

The little monk who was originally at the Ghost Realm passage had long since disappeared.

Whoosh...

Ye Xiu stepped into the Ghost Realm passage.

As the space fluctuated slightly, he instantly arrived in the dim Ghost Realm.

Boom...

The rules within the Ghost Realm erupted.

The moment Ye Xiu entered, the Grand Dao of Weirdness ignited like gasoline, exploding instantly.

”Heh... Can it not tolerate my Dao?”

With a cold laugh, he transformed into a Radiant Sun and rose steadily within the Ghost Realm.

The darkness was expelled.

Under the illumination of the Radiant Sun, the Ghost Realm was thoroughly ignited.

At this moment, shrill screams and wails rang out across the entire Ghost Realm. Wherever the Radiant Sun shone, everything was ignited by the golden flames.

”Junior, how dare you?”

From the deepest part of the Ghost Realm, a hoarse roar echoed.

A skeleton shrouded in ominous Qi crawled out of a Black River.

Its entire body was flowing with black blood.

The Grand Dao of Weirdness, which had been suppressed by the Radiant Sun, began to riot following the skeleton’s appearance, condensing into a black protective barrier across the entire Ghost Realm to block the Radiant Sun’s illumination.

”Immortal? But you have already decayed. Are you crawling out to seek death?” Ye Xiu sneered, continuing to increase the output of the Power of the Radiant Sun.

As he unleashed his full power, the originally golden Radiant Sun began to change, and within a mere instant, it transformed into a silver-white light.

Crack...

The weird barrier began to shatter.

The entire Ghost Realm began to quake.

”Junior, do not go too far.”

In the Black River, another skeleton crawled out, also an existence with a dissipating Dao and extreme decay.

”Even your Immortal Dao has collapsed. I am actually quite curious as to how long ago you lived.”

The Power of the Radiant Sun did not diminish. After shattering the weird barrier, it immediately shone down upon the earth.

”Give the Tian Clan some Face, how about that?”

The Black River shook as more decaying skeletons continued to crawl out. Seven in a row. Including the previous two skeletons, there were already nine Immortal-level skeletons.

The Tian Clan?

A flash of surprise crossed Ye Xiu’s eyes.

A hundred years ago, the Taichu Martial Venerable opened the Time Passage, and at that time, the headless Deity Obsession had mentioned a few words about the Tian Clan.

He had even used this as an excuse to trick the Deity Obsession away. Now, he had actually met the real deal.

Looking at the nine Immortals whose Dao had dissipated, he shook his head slightly: ”So-called Immortals, it turns out you couldn’t even survive two eras.”

”Latecomer, do not mock the glory of your predecessors. The golden age of the past is something you will never be able to understand.”

”Did the Primordial era have a golden age? It was nothing more than a scene of a group of decaying beings gasping for breath, unwilling to pass on, and slaughtering all living beings.”

”All living beings? They were nothing more than a group of livestock kept in captivity.”

”You are certainly direct. It’s a pity that you are not even as good as livestock.”

”Latecomer, the path of the predecessors is not necessarily wrong. When ants grasp power, they will try every possible means to pursue so-called freedom. There are even those who struggle through great hardships to cross over, yet they still think of themselves as ants, opposing the great trend.”

”And so?”
