It was the Mountain Master Tian Yuan who made the move and captured Kunpeng. He had a sort of relationship with Jiang Ming.
This time however, was his original body and not an incarnation.
Looking at the happiness and satisfaction on the face of Mountain Master Tian Yuan after completing his vengeance from a distance, Jiang Ming was a little puzzled.
He remembered that when he checked on Mountain Master Tian Yuan’s ‘Status’, it seemed that his enemies were all slaughtered. This made him wonder what was happening?
He thought the possible explanation was that there was no further analysis because it was an incarnation rather than the original body that he stumbled upon at the beginning?
Jiang Ming opened the Human Path Record and referred to Tianyuan’s ‘Status’. It became somewhat clearer now.
Name: Qian Yuan (Mountain Master Tian Yuan)
Relationship: 86
Status
: He was the son of a mortal peasant and later ascended through the immortal gates. He was initially a free and unfettered person at heart but when his mountain gate was destroyed, he stayed hidden for hundreds of millions of years in anger, vowing to emerge one day and slaughter all his enemies.
: When the ancient Heavenly Court fell, he made his move and killed off all his enemies. When he thought he had exacted his revenge, he suddenly found new clues to his mountain gate’s demise.
: The Immortal King who annihilated his sect once secretly took refuge with Kunpeng and collected beautiful women with high qualifications for Kunpeng’s son. His Junior Sister was snatched, humiliated and suicided after. Even their sect was destroyed.
: Upon knowing this, his anger fumed and raged.
: He wanted revenge, not only to kill Beiming Hai, but also to kill Kunpeng as well.
: Kunpeng was the root cause of the demise of his master’s sect and the death of Junior Sister. Without him, how could there be Beiming Hai to begin with?
: However, Kunpeng’s influence was very powerful and had become the Northern Emperor of the current Heavenly Court. He now had the power in his hands, and his cultivation realm was unpredictable. Killing him was as hard as flying to the moon. He went into seclusion and became Mountain Master Tian Yuan. He seemed to be at ease, but was in fact secretly investigating the details of Kunpeng.
: After a summary of information, he came to a conclusion: Kunpeng had a cold, cruel and tyrannical temperament, was only into his own interest, mean and unkind, and had always wanted to break through Holy Dao. It is also known that when he was subdued by the Ancient Heavenly Court, he suffered a Dao injury and never recovered from it.
: Suffering from Dao injury, how can Kunpeng’s strength be improved? Qian Yuan even knew that he had tried every means, and even secretly destroyed a lot of sects and families to collect immortal treasures, but still was unable to recover himself. Under such a situation, how would he deplete his own origin to give birth to children?
: If it’s unreasonable, then there must be a secret within.
: Later, it was found out that Kunpeng had an innate special ability called the Kunpeng Reincarnation Technique. With that technique, normal injuries can be recovered in an instant, but couldn’t do much for Dao injuries.
: Nurturing a child with his own essence and blood means their origins are the same. Therefore, he concluded that devouring the child when the child’s cultivation becomes stronger, could heal his wound. And he was ecstatic.
: According to his speculation, if Kunpeng were to make his move, he would definitely wait until the Beiming Hai entered the Great Overarching Realm, and it was best at the pinnacle of the Great Overarching Realm. When the time comes, once the child is swallowed to heal his wound, he will inevitably be in a state of weakness. It would be a good time for revenge, and he can then eradicate both the father and son together.
: From then on, he began to focus on monitoring Beiming Hai. He saw that Bei Minghai came to the Infinite Realm Battlefield, but unexpectedly discovered that the mortal planar world that he had been keeping his eyes on was about to descend there as well. He sighed in his heart: I was still robbed in the end!
: When he initially saw Bei Chenxing of Great Overarching Golden Immortal Realm wanting to kill the little guy he had paid attention to, he was worried. However, when he saw the confident look on Jiang Ming’s face, he held back.
: Unexpectedly, this little guy had grown to such a powerful extent. He did not enter the Great Overarching Realm, but still killed Bei Chenxing, who was in the later stage of the Great Overarching Realm. It was both a shocking and a happy surprise.
: When he saw Jiang Ming was in such a miserable state, as if he was going to die at any time, he felt inexplicably that Jiang Ming was actually pretending. Yes, it was all just him pretending.
: He later saw Beiming Hai rush into the human world to kill Jiang Ming again. His heart moved, and an immature thought ran through his mind: If Beiming Hai was killed, will Kunpeng come forth? He definitely will! Can he kill Kunpeng if he joins forces with Jiang Ming?
: He also discovered that the remnants of the mortal world could not be peeked into. While he was shocked at first, it gave him some hope.
: Seeing Kunpeng’s arrival, he wanted to follow him into the mortal world, but held back at last. When he saw sword light soaring into the sky, the sea of clouds being tossed around, he was shocked.
: Seeing Kunpeng escaping for his life was even more horrifying. When he sensed that the enemy’s aura was greatly diminished, he was pleasantly surprised.
: Preparing to take advantage of Jiang Ming, who was chasing Kunpeng to continue their battle, he planned on making his move secretly and killed Kunpeng with one hit. However, he later found out that there were two Demon Venerates hiding in the Abyss. He had discovered before that these two Demon Venerates had been in contact with Kunpeng, and his heart sank.
: But wait!
: It was very gratifying for him to see Jiang Ming’s great powers; His heart was in ecstatic to see how miserable Kunpeng had become. When he saw the Thousand-Handed Demon Venerate and Hong Luo Demon Venerate appearing to save Kunpeng, he couldn’t suppress his bloodlust any longer. Seeing that Jiang Ming used Great Overarching Dao Vessels to intimidate the two Demon Venerates, and was extremely powerful, he knew that his opportunity had come.
: Finally, Kunpeng was the first to leave.
: Haha! the opportunity has come! The opportunity has finally come! Thank God! I will destroy this bird man today!
: Once I make my move, I must kill him with one hit!
…
Jiang Ming looked at the Qian Yuan’s ‘Status’ and exclaimed in his heart.
This one was also a ruthless man. When his sect was destroyed, he didn’t rush to take revenge, but endured in seclusion, finding the opportunity to kill his opponent off with one blow. In the face of such a mortal enemy, Kunpeng, he had been planning for a long time, waiting for the most suitable opportunity. And his hard work paid off.
“Calm, ruthless, and cunning like a lone wolf, how could he not amount to great things!” Jiang Ming secretly said in his heart.
What if he was the Mountain Master Tian Yuan? If his sect was destroyed, his master was killed, and his Junior Sister also died. How would he react?
He really might not be able to hold back. What if he couldn’t hold back? He thought he would be killed nine times out of ten.
As all these ran through his thoughts, it was just a snap of his fingers.
Over at the other side, Mountain Master Tian Yuan was slowly reminiscing about the past.
“What? The Immortal King that surrendered himself to me destroyed your sect to collect Immortal ladies for my child?” Upon hearing this, Kunpeng couldn’t help crying out in despair, “Making matters worse! Damn it! How can this single child I raised make matters so much worse for me?”
When the other experts watching the battle heard his cry, they all smiled, and at the same time were very happy: Kunpeng! Finally you have this day too.
Committing evil deeds everywhere in order to nurture Beiming Hai, who was he to bring harm to but not yourself?
It might be nothing before as he did not provoke any ruthless people. But now that he had provoked one such person?
Just provoking that person once was all he needed to be a goner.
“Mountain Master Tian Yuan! Listen to me, listen to me!” Kunpeng resisted the extreme pain of his primal spirit’s destruction, and hoarsely said quickly, “I don’t know what happened in the past. I really didn’t know! It wasn’t me who instructed it. Let me go and I will tell you the secret of the Holy Dao!”
“The secret of the Holy Dao?” Mountain Master Tian Yuan curled his lips and said coldly, “If I do not take my revenge, even if my heads are clear of thoughts, why would I still ponder on the Holy Dao? Kunpeng, even if God himself comes today, you are still sure to die!”
With that said, he looked at Jiang Ming in the distance and nodded.
Jiang Ming cupped his hands to greet him.
It was just that the Thousand-Handed Demon Venerate and Hong Luo Demon Venerate had extremely ugly expressions on their faces.
They thought that it would be smooth sailing to rescue Kunpeng. Who knew that they would first encounter such a dauntless person like Jiang Ming, and then Mountain Master Tian Yuan appearing right after? The two were really two slaps right on their faces.
The two looked at each other and were about to go and stop the Mountain Master Tian Yuan, but was blocked by Jiang Ming, “You two! Are you leaving just like that?”
His tone was cold, and there were four large Great Overarching Dao Vessels suspended in front of him, each of which gave off terrifying luminance, as if they would explode at any time.
Jiang Ming also checked the ‘Status’ of the two Demon Venerates.
They were all Demon Venerates from the Abyss, and their ‘Relationship’ with him was around minus 90. What did that mean? It meant that as long as there was a chance, they would definitely kill him.
Also, it had been made clear just now that saving Kunpeng made them his mortal enemy, and yet these two did not take him seriously at all.
However, he discovered their purpose of saving Kunpeng from the ‘Status’ of these Demon Venerates.
They were in contact before, and Kunpeng wanted to make these two secretly subdue under himself at the cost of knowing the secrets about the Holy Realm.
There was even a hidden place of the Holy Venerates Dao Square that they could go seek for benefits together in the future.
It just so happened that when Jiang Ming was trapped in the Seven-Star Array Formation, Kunpeng felt a little uneasy, and found that these two were also on the Infinite Realm Battlefield. The two of them were on a higher-level battlefield, and so he informed them to come over.
Otherwise, how could they rush over so quickly?
Upon descending into this world and going through so many things, Jiang Ming believed in the truth of this world that if they were to be enemies, they would be his mortal enemies.
If the enemy could not kill him, then he will be the one killing them off.
“Such bravery, little one!” Hong Luo Demon Venerate was furious, and a palace burst out above his head. Its power radiated around, covering the entire surroundings.
Meanwhile, the Thousand-Handed Demon Venerate took a glance and quickly left.
“Are you really not afraid?” Jiang Ming didn’t move, but a Nine Level Golden Pagoda appeared above his head, as he held onto the Mystical Arcane Halberd with four large Great Overarching Dao Vessels suspended midair in front of him.
Hong Luo Demon Venerate’s heart was beating wildly, but how could he show any weakness?
He had also discussed with the Thousand-Handed Demon Venerate just now that if this little guy was still unyielding, he would block him off here. They won’t aim to kill off the enemy, but just seek for their own protection and block him off.
“We don’t have any grudges, do we?” Hong Luo Demon Venerate forced out an ugly smile, “Everything is negotiable.”
Jiang Ming also smiled, “True. It’s negotiable!”
However, his eyes turned over to Mountain Master Tian Yuan, whilst he also looked this way.
The eyes of the two met. Although they did not speak nor did they transmit their voices subconsciously, the two also exchanged information, forming a tacit understanding between them.
Jiang Ming turned his eyes over and looked at Hong Luo Demon Venerate with a raging gleam in his eyes.
