Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 1086

Chapter 1086 - The Past in the Long River

In the divine hall, the Bone Dragon was like a mountain, and the tip of it could not be seen.

Especially the aura on its body, it was too strong. Even the auras of Feng Mu and Feng Tian were not even a tenth of the Bone Dragon’s. It was worth noting that they were at the top of the pyramid in the Great Wide World. With a stamp of their feet, the entire Great Wide World would be shaken. Now, they could be easily defeated. One could imagine how intense the Bone Dragon’s aura was.

Ou Yangming had a feeling that the Bone Dragon could even be compared to Taotie and Feng Ling.

Big Yellow took a breath and asked seriously, “How could such a formidable creature die?”

Ou Yangming shook his head. This Bone Dragon gave him a strange feeling.

All of a sudden, the Bone Dragon moved, and a circle of tiny ripples appeared in the space. The entire world shook as if some kind of power that exceeded the limit of this world had appeared. The space was like an onion being peeled open layer by layer, revealing a touch of pitch-black that made one’s heart palpitate.

“Retreat—quickly retreat!”Ou Yangming sucked in a breath of cold air.

He finally understood where the odd feeling came from. It was because the Bone Dragon was still alive.

If this powerful creature attacked, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The young fellow and the 2 beasts did not hesitate at all. They turned into 3 long arcs and were about to leave the hall.

“Wait—someone with Taotie’s bloodline…” A voice was heard out of the blue. When it echoed in all directions, Ou Yangming’s body seemed to have been confined. He just stood there in mid-air and could not move at all.

Lil’ Red took out the explosive arrows from his interspatial bag. Just as he was about to make a move, Ou Yangming signaled him with his eyes to stop. The young fellow was certain that even a Ruler’s self-explosion would not be able to hurt the Bone Dragon in the slightest. If they angered it, it would be more of a loss than a gain, and they might even die here. Moreover, the dragon had seen through Ou Yangming’s Bloodline Power with a single glance. It seemed that it did not have any ill intentions.

Just as this thought reverberated in Ou Yangming’s mind, the binding power on him disappeared quietly.

“Lil’ friend, come over and have a chat,” the Bone Dragon said softly.

“Yes, senior.” Ou Yangming was being respectful. He took a step forward and directly landed in the main hall.

What kind of eyes were those? They were so deep that they were like the starry sky. It was as if they could see through the essence of the universe. In front of the Bone Dragon, no secrets could be hidden.

“May I know how to address you, lil’ friend?” The bones on the Bone Dragon’s face were gathered, and it revealed a smile that it thought was friendly. Nonetheless, Big Yellow thought that they looked malevolent.

“Senior, you can just call me a b*stard. All the elders in my family call me that,” Ou Yangming replied innocently.

“That’s interesting!” The Bone Dragon’s voice was neither hurried nor slow.

Under the shocked gazes of Big Yellow and Lil’ Red, Ou Yangming and the Bone Dragon began to talk as if there was no one else around them. When they talked about things that made them feel comfortable, they would even laugh a few times. No matter how one looked at it, this scene was a little strange.

Lil’ Red stared at Big Yellow for a few seconds and asked, “Am I seeing things?”

Big Yellow answered affirmatively, “No.”

After saying that, the 2 beasts sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time.

The Bone Dragon’s body prostrated itself after about 8 minutes.

Although it was only a skeleton, there was no coldness on its body. On the contrary, it gave people an indescribable feeling of holiness. Every inch of its bone was shining with a golden luster, containing a power that could destroy Heaven and Earth.

Ou Yangming’s nervousness was completely gone. The Bone Dragon’s erudition and vastness had benefited him greatly.

He sat on a stone block, squinted his eyes, and asked with a smile, “Why would you be in a place like this, senior?” He knew that such a strong figure must have a past and a story. Just the fact that the Bone Dragon had stayed in the divine hall of the Long River of Time for unknown years was enough to cause one’s imagination to run wild.

The Bone Dragon opened its mouth. After thinking for a moment, it asked in return, “Have you heard of the Shamans?”

Ou Yangming nodded.

“The purpose of this divine hall is to suppress the Shamans, and I was created to protect the hall.” The Bone Dragon’s voice rumbled, and every word it said was shocking.

“Suppress the Shamans?” Ou Yangming and the 2 beasts exclaimed at the same time.

The Bone Dragon’s eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life as it sighed. “Yes, the spirits of chaos. Each of them is incredibly powerful.”

Ou Yangming was puzzled when he heard this. He knew there must be a secret hidden within this.

“Has the Shamans Extermination War ended?” As the Bone Dragon’s voice reverberated in all directions, it set off a thunder in Ou Yangming’s mind.

“What… What’s the Shamans Extermination War?” Ou Yangming probed.

The Bone Dragon pondered for a moment. Looking at Ou Yangming’s expression, it did not seem like he was lying, hence it said softly, “Looks like it has ended. In that case, my sacrifice was worth it. The Great Wide World’s finally peaceful.”

Ou Yangming became more confused. Big Yellow and Lil’ Red were also baffled.

The Bone Dragon gently exhaled a mouthful of green air. The entire hall rumbled, and spiritual Qi exploded. The void shook.

“Hiss, hiss!” Big Yellow and Lil’ Red exchanged glances. They felt their scalps go numb. This kind of strength had surpassed their imaginations.

After a moment of silence, a look of reminiscence appeared in the Bone Dragon’s eyes. “All living things were born. When the chaos was first created, there were 5 great races in the chaos and among them, the Ancient Shamans were the most revered. The Ancient Shamans didn’t refine magical weapons and only cultivated their physical bodies. Their physical bodies were exceptionally powerful, and they could cross hell and open the blue sky of chaos. They ravaged the Great Wide World for hundreds of thousands of years but after the calamity, they gradually declined. Later on, the Demons rose. The Dragons were the leader to the north of the Heavenly River, whereas the Phoenixes were the leader to the south of the Heavenly River. They launched the Shamans Extermination War. After tens of thousands of years of intense war, the situation eventually reversed.”

The Bone Dragon’s paused for a moment, and the emotion in its eyes grew even stronger. In fact, its voice was a little dry.

“What happened after that?” Ou Yangming asked. Big Yellow and Lil’ Red stared at the Bone Dragon without blinking. They pricked up their ears, afraid that they would miss a single detail.

Even though the Bone Dragon simplified everything, the grief in its words made them feel shocked.

“After that…” The Bone Dragon was silent for a moment, and an indescribable light shone in its eyes.

“After that, I led the Tu An Tribe and met the strongest tribe of the Shamans in the Long River of Time. We fought for 3 days and 3 nights. The world cried at the same time. Fresh blood painted the sky red. In the end, we couldn’t win and were forced into a desperate situation. As such, we used the blood essences of 10,000 members as a guide and transformed our flesh and blood into a divine hall. With that, we managed to seal more than 80% of the Shamans’ powerhouses in the Long River of Time.” The Bone Dragon’s voice was not loud, but its words were filled with pride.

This past event that was roaming in the Long River of Time was finally revealed.

“Senior, you’re righteous.” Ou Yangming cupped his hands and bowed with sincerity.

Big Yellow and Lil’ Red also bowed, their eyes filled with respect.

It was just a brief description of the past, but Ou Yangming could imagine how tragic and desolate the war was. 10,000 dragons had used their blood essences as a guide and their bodies as a seal. If such a figure was not worth saluting to, who was?

At this moment, Ou Yangming’s resentment toward the Dragons dissipated a lot.

As soon as the Bone Dragon finished, the divine hall fell into a strange silence. Only the whistling of the winds could be heard.

The Bone Dragon gently exhaled and asked after a while, “Has peace been restored in the Great Wide World?”

Ou Yangming’s eyes revealed a hint of sorrow. The victory of the Shamans Extermination War was built with the flesh and blood of the ancestors of the Dragons and the Phoenixes. Despite that, not only did the descendants of the 2 races not cherish it, but they even launched the Ancient War in an attempt to dominate the myriad worlds.

Power and desire complemented each other. The more one’s power, the greater one’s desire.

Plenty of thoughts crossed Ou Yangming’s mind, but he did not hide the truth. He shook his head and answered, “Not yet. The Dragons and the Phoenixes have started to compete for hegemony. They both want to unify the myriad worlds and dominate the 10,000 races.”

The Bone Dragon’s Qi nurturing skill was profound but when it heard those words, the bones on its body began to shake.

It never would have thought that the hard-won peace would not be cherished by the later generations. It laughed loudly in a desolate manner. The divine hall immediately turned cold, and red snowflakes floated in the air. Given its level of cultivation, every thought it had would cause the surrounding space to change.

For some reason, when Lil’ Red and Big Yellow saw this scene, their eyes turned red, their noses became sore, and their throats seemed to be blocked by something.

Even Ou Yangming felt sad and lonely.

After 10 breaths, the Bone Dragon smiled apologetically and said, “Lil’ friend, I’m sorry. I was a little emotional earlier.”

Ou Yangming bowed again. The bow was for the sacrifice of the heroic spirits.

A flash of light appeared in the Bone Dragon’s pitch-black eyes. It looked at Ou Yangming deeply and expressed, “Lil’ friend, you’re too kind!” At this point, it regarded the young fellow more highly.

Generally speaking, if a person did not respect history, the ancestors, and did not have faith and perseverance, no matter how talented he was, he would not have great achievements. This was because his heart was already rotten. If he could forget such things, what else could he not forget?

Ou Yangming knew what the Bone Dragon was referring to, so he responded seriously, “I’ll never forget history.”

“Very well!” The Bone Dragon said.

As soon as it finished, it asked, “Do you still have the Phoenixes’ Imperial Bloodline?”

Ou Yangming’s heart trembled. The Bone Dragon was the first to see through his Bloodline Power. The young fellow did not hide anything and nodded hard.

The Bone Dragon’s gaze became gentler as it praised, “The Phoenixes’ Imperial Bloodline is rare even in ancient times. Every figure with that bloodline has the power to suppress the heavens and has endless potential.”

“Senior, you’re flattering me.” Ou Yangming waved his hand.

“I’m just telling the truth from facts. You deserve the praise.” The Bone Dragon exhaled. One could tell that it really liked Ou Yangming.

Big Yellow and Lil’ Red looked at each other and smiled. They felt really proud at this moment.

This was especially so for Big Yellow. He had accompanied Ou Yangming all the way here. He knew very well how much pressure the young fellow had endured and the hardships that he had gone through to reach this step. It was not easy.

After a while, Ou Yangming stared into the Bone Dragon’s eyes, and his eyes were filled with doubt.

He wondered, ‘Is it considered a living creature?’

The Bone Dragon had lived for countless years, and it could easily see through one’s thoughts. It took the initiative to speak, “Life and death are like a circle. When a flower blooms, it dies; when a flower wilts, it dies. Every year, it goes through a cycle. Therefore, in my opinion, death is life, and life is death. It’s just that the forms are different. There’s no need to be rigid, lil’ friend. Besides, in the Long River of Time, there’s no such thing as life or death.”

“Thank you for your guidance, senior.” Ou Yangming nodded.
