Chapter 386: Luo Tiantu

"Hahaha, Wang Sect Remnant, you are indeed here!"

"Hm? The scent of the Medicine Nerve! Hahaha, I've finally been waiting!"

A wildly arrogant laugh cracked through the sky above Taoyuan Village like a thunderclap.

Immediately after, an overwhelmingly terrifying aura swept in, instantly enveloping the whole Taoyuan Village.

The aura was unrivaled in its domineering force, causing everyone present to involuntarily shiver.

"What... what a terrifying aura!"

"Who is this? How can they possess such strength?"

The crowd shouted in surprise, their bodies instinctively stepping back, their eyes filled with unease.

Jiang Feng tightened his grip on the Medicine God Nerve Jade Tablet, furrowing his brows, and looked up toward the direction the aura came from.

He could clearly sense that the aura contained an extremely pure Divine Soul power, which felt very uncomfortable.

Yao Lao's expression changed instantly, his face becoming exceedingly solemn.

He abruptly looked up at the sky.

"Bad! It must be the divine aura emitted when the Medicine God Cauldron revived just now, startling those outside!"

"This aura... hiss..."

Yao Lao carefully sensed for a moment, his complexion growing increasingly grim, his voice trembling.

"Is it someone from the Qie Sect?"

As soon as the words fell, a cyan figure descended like a phantom from midair, landing steadily on the open ground before the crowd.

The blue-clothed man stood tall, his face austere, a faint hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth.

He wore a simple ancient-style blue robe, exuding a subtle pressure of authority.

At the same moment the blue-clothed man appeared, a hunched figure hurried from afar—it was the Village Chief who had just announced his abdication.

The Village Chief stared intently at the blue-clothed man, his gaze full of apprehension.

Both being Wu Zun Realm strongmen, he could clearly feel that the blue-clothed man's aura was exceedingly terrifying.

The aura emanating from him was chilling and domineering.

Even though they share the Wu Zun Realm, this blue-clothed man seemed able to slay him with ease!

"Who are you? Why did you intrude into my Taoyuan Village?"

The Village Chief forced down his fear and sternly demanded the blue-clothed man.

The blue-clothed man ignored the Village Chief, slowly raising his head, his gaze sweeping over everyone present like a hawk, finally landing on Yao Lao.

"Artifact Spirit?"

A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"So all these years, you've been sheltering these Wang Sect brats; no wonder... all this time, His Seat could never find you!"

"I never imagined that after so many years, you truly have become a climate!"

Yao Lao stared at the blue-clothed man with a cold gaze.

"The Qie Sect was completely annihilated during the Yaoshen Dian's internal war back then; who are you really? Why do you bear the inheritance aura of the Qie Sect?"

All these years, Yao Lao had believed the Qie Sect had vanished entirely from history, never expecting any successor to still exist...

The blue-clothed man heard that and let out a cold laugh.

"You don't recognize His Seat? Well, after dedicating my body to cultivation for so many years, my appearance is far from what it was back then; it's normal you don't recognize His Seat."

"Let me tell you, His Seat is the Head of Qie Sect, Luo Tiantu!"

"What?! Luo Tiantu?"

The blue-clothed man's words struck like thunder on flat ground, exploding through the scene!

Yao Lao's eyes instantly flashed two sharp beams of light, his face full of disbelief.

"Impossible! Luo Tiantu clearly died in the Yaoshen Dian's internal war back then; even if he hadn't died, Life Span Yuan has limits, how could he still be alive?"

Luo Tiantu was, in the ancient era, the Head of Qie Sect of the Yaoshen Dian, one of the Four Great Pinnacle Masters of the Yaoshen Dian, his power unfathomable.

The internal war of the Yaoshen Dian back then was almost sparked single-handedly by him, causing countless casualties.

Yet Yao Lao distinctly remembered that Luo Tiantu had already fallen back then.

Even if he hadn't fallen, the ancient era is nearly ten thousand years ago, and the Wu Zun Realm's lifespan limit is only a thousand years; Luo Tiantu could not have lived that long!

"That mortal body naturally could not survive to the present."

Luo Tiantu let out a cold laugh, speaking in a flat tone.

"But His Seat abandoned the mortal body, devoted himself to the Divine Soul, entrusting it to an Ancient Relic; living until now, is that strange?"

"Artifact Spirit, I've been searching for you for many years!"

Luo Tiantu's gaze fell on Yao Lao, his eyes brimming with greed.

"When the Yaoshen Dian fell, the Medicine God Cauldron and Medicine Nerve vanished; I exhausted all schemes, only then sensing the Cauldron's aura here."

"Hand over the Medicine God Cauldron and Medicine Nerve to His Seat immediately!"

Luo Tiantu extended his hand, his disdainful gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"Considering you are all of the Yaoshen Dian's Bloodline, when His Seat rebuilds the Temple, I can grant you an entry opportunity, allowing you to continue serving the Yaoshen Dian!"

"You dare not!"

Yao Lao roared angrily, his gaze filled with fury.

"Back then the Yaoshen Dian was destroyed by your hand, countless brethren perished unjustly, the Temple's inheritance nearly severed! Even if you truly are Luo Tiantu, you have no right to lay claim to anything of the Yaoshen Dian!"

"The Medicine God Cauldron and Medicine Nerve will never be handed over to a traitor like you!"

Hearing that, Luo Tiantu's face instantly darkened, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"Fine! What an ungrateful Artifact Spirit! Giving face without taking face, then I will utterly annihilate all of you!"

"Once I kill you, the Medicine Divine Cauldron and the Medicine Nerve will naturally fall into His Seat's hands; then, His Seat will personally rebuild the Medicine Divine Temple, letting the Medicine Divine Temple, in His Seat's hands, achieve unprecedented brilliance!"

Luo Tiantu's voice was ice‑cold and bone‑chilling, laden with intense killing intent, causing everyone present to feel unprecedented fear.

Yao Lao stood in front of Jiang Feng, the Wu Zun Realm power within his body erupting at full force, Metal-colored true qi swirling around his body, forming a solid defense.

He stared intently at Luo Tiantu, Tone heavy as he said to those nearby,

"Everyone retreat quickly! This person's strength is too great; we cannot handle them!"

The old Village Chief also circulated true qi within his body, standing side by side with Yao Lao.

"Yao Lao, if we join forces, perhaps we can buy some time, allowing everyone to seize the chance to escape!"

Luo Tiantu looked at the two as if facing a great enemy, letting out a burst of mocking Laughter.

"Just you two tiny Wu Zun, you think you can block His Seat? It's sheer delusion!"

As the words fell, Luo Tiantu's figure suddenly vanished on the spot, turning into a greenish afterimage, instantly lunging toward Yao Lao and the old Village Chief!

His speed was extreme, the people present could not even see his movements; they could only feel a strong gust of wind slamming into their faces, making breathing difficult.

"Bad! Quickly dodge!"

Yao Lao's complexion changed drastically, and he pulled the old Village Chief back quickly.

"Boom!"

Luo Tiantu's attack landed where the two had just been standing, the ground instantly smashed into a huge deep pit.

The terrifying power spread outward, causing the surrounding people to retreat again, the fear on their faces growing even denser.

"Now, do you intend to rebel against His Seat?"

Luo Tiantu, looking down from his height at Yao Lao and the Village Chief, had eyes full of amusement.
