“Who dares disturb our Ancient Wasteland Upper Realm!!”
The blood-colored giant face opened its eyes, and a bone-chilling pressure surged forth, making people feel as if they were drowning, as if they might suffocate at any moment.
Even Chen Yi, a Martial God, found the aura casually emanating from this blood-colored giant face extremely uncomfortable.
This was a power he had never seen before, one that didn't belong to this era.
But Chen Yi was fearless!
“Civil War God” had already marked the giant face’s weakness beside it: a lingering remnant of a soul and will, existing by relying on the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm. If the secret realm was destroyed, it would vanish along with it. He could try using the “Trait Slingshot” to shoot it with “Vehicle Killer.”
Could he defeat it that easily with the Trait Slingshot?
Although this giant face was truly huge, it wouldn’t just stand still and take the hit. If he wanted to use the slingshot, he still had to find the safest opportunity.
Because this was reality, and there was only one chance!
Chen Yi glanced at the Great Demon beside him.
The Great Demon felt uneasy under Chen Yi’s stare.
“Kid, you’re not thinking of running now, are you? I’ve bet everything on this!”
“You’ll need to do your part later.”
“Spit it out.”
Chen Yi tossed a sound transmission talisman to the Great Demon, sealing his words inside to prevent the blood-colored giant face from hearing them.
This talisman was, of course, sponsored by Old Shen.
The Great Demon caught on immediately.
Chen Yi stood on the ground, chest out, head high, and shouted loudly in accusation.
“Hey you, with that big face of yours, who are you!”
The blood-colored giant face looked at Chen Yi.
“I am a Wild Soldier personally appointed by the Human Ancestor! I am the only remaining Wild Soldier in all of heaven and earth!”
This surprised Chen Yi somewhat.
“I didn’t think something that ancient could still find a way to survive.”
This Wild Soldier wasn’t “alive” in the conventional sense.
He had only awakened thanks to the divine mark sacrifices just now.
And he didn’t even have a human form.
The Wild Soldier’s gaze swept around, and he saw through everything instantly.
“This day has finally come. The outside world has finally realized where the Path to Immortality is.”
The Great Demon snorted coldly.
“You know it well! Hand over the Path to Immortality quickly, or I’ll slaughter everyone inside here!”
The Wild Soldier suddenly opened his mouth, and a devastating dark red beam of light shot out, scattering the Great Demon’s mass of demonic energy on the spot!
“Great Demon!”
The Great Demon couldn’t avoid it, because at his feet, countless ghostly hands wearing decayed armor had appeared, firmly gripping him, forcing him to take the hit head-on.
The Sun Moon Tower emerged from the demonic energy.
“Oh dear~ It’s fine, it’s fine~ There’s still a little bit left, a little bit~”
Chen Yi stood on the ground, chest out, head high, and shouted loudly in questioning.
The Great Demon reformed his demonic energy, but he looked much weaker.
Inside the Cauldron Realm, Yi Chengsheng and the other four were ecstatic, their eyebrows dancing with joy.
“Hahaha! Hua Wuyan! You brought out old relics like Li Wentian, the Great Demon, and Founding Ancestor Shen, thinking we didn’t have our own! This is our ancestor, a hundred times better than yours!!”
Hua Wuyan glared at Yi Chengsheng on the ground.
“Shut up.”
Hua Wuyan tapped Yi Chengsheng’s mouth with her cane, making him wince and curse.
Watching the Great Demon be defeated in one move, Hua Wuyan grew worried.
“I need to go out and help them.”
Shen Yang said he would keep an eye on things here and assured her it would be fine, letting Hua Wuyan leave with peace of mind.
Hua Wuyan stepped out of the Cauldron Realm and faced the Wild Soldier’s enormous face.
“The current Guardian.”
“Indeed.”
“Since things have come to this, if you don’t want the human world to be plunged into misery and its strong to fall, just accept the fact that the Path to Immortality belongs exclusively to our realm. As the Guardian, do you really want to see the worst possible outcome?”
“Wild Soldiers, according to legend, were the most loyal guardians of humanity. How ironic that the ending is so twisted—becoming humanity’s greatest traitors and oppressors, monopolizing the Path to Immortality and cutting off humanity’s chance at immortality!”
“Countless ages ago, the Human Ancestor went to the Real Realm.
He left behind the path he had created, telling us to guard it, that one day he would walk back along this path, take us with him to the immortal realm, and share eternal life!
But then?
We waited, and waited, watching batch after batch of brothers close their eyes and be buried in the ground, without ever hearing a single word from him!
The Human Ancestor abandoned us!
The Path to Immortality was left to us by the Human Ancestor, and it belongs only to us, the Wild Soldier bloodline!!”
Chen Yi couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“I think the Human Ancestor had terrible judgment. It turns out you guys were selfish from the very start. You held a grudge just because he didn’t take you along for the ride.
Besides, isn’t the Path to Immortality right in your hands? If you want to go to the Real Realm, just go yourself! Why wait for the Human Ancestor?
Oh, is it because you’re not strong enough and can’t make it through the Path to Immortality?
Hilarious.”
The truth stung, and the Wild Soldier’s giant face instantly twisted into a furious snarl.
“Insolent child! What right do you have to criticize us! I am your ancestor, the ancestor of the entire human world!!”
Chen Yi laughed heartily, pointing at the Wild Soldier and scolding him.
“You can be anyone’s ancestor! But you could never be mine!!”
The Great Demon couldn’t avoid it, because at his feet, countless ghostly hands wearing decayed armor had appeared, firmly gripping him, forcing him to take the hit head-on.
In terms of his soul, Chen Yi came from an Earth where red flags fluttered high, and the Yan and Huang were his ancestors!
So when he said these words, they were heartfelt and rang with every syllable!
Both sides were at each other’s throats, and it was clear there was no room for negotiation.
The Wild Soldier’s face was filled with killing intent. He suddenly opened his mouth, and a dark red light beam that tore through space hurtled toward Chen Yi.
At the same time, large hands wearing decayed armor appeared beneath Chen Yi’s feet, firmly locking him in place.
The Sun Moon Tower preserved the Great Demon’s most core soul.
“Chen Yi!”
Hua Wuyan immediately moved to save him.
But Chen Yi suddenly raised a hand toward her.
“No need!”
“What?”
Before Hua Wuyan could finish speaking, the Wild Soldier’s attack had already struck Chen Yi, engulfing him instantly.
The ground beneath Chen Yi shattered on the spot, transforming into Spatial Turbulence, with the human world on the other side.
“Hmph, a mere junior with a sharp tongue, nothing more…”
But before the Wild Soldier could gloat for even two seconds, he saw Chen Yi standing there completely unharmed.
“How is that possible?!”
Both the Wild Soldier and the Great Demon exclaimed in unison.
The Wild Soldier was shocked that his killing move had failed.
The Great Demon was shocked that even he couldn’t withstand that attack, and yet Chen Yi wasn’t even dead, not even a speck of dirt on his clothes!
Why?
Tell me loudly, what is this Wild Soldier?
A remnant of a soul!
Plus!
The power of a blood sacrifice divine mark!
At its essence, it was still a remnant of a soul!
As long as it wasn’t a physical form, the “Materialist Warrior” would teach him a lesson!
Direct immunity to damage, and every attack was a super-effective hit!
Chen Yi cracked his wrists, a mocking expression on his face as he looked at the Wild Soldier.
“My turn.”
He was supposed to be a traditional old-school badass, but he failed to pull it off.
When Chen Yi tried to counterattack and throw a punch to test the waters, the Wild Soldier’s huge face moved freely around the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm.
His reaction was faster than Chen Yi’s attack, always staying at least a kilometer away from Chen Yi.
This was exactly the situation Chen Yi had feared.
There was no way the Trait Slingshot could hit him.
Good thing he hadn’t recklessly used the Trait Slingshot just now; otherwise, his only chance would be gone.
“Kid! Just what kind of thing are you?!”
“I am your ancestor!!”
Chen Yi kept up the chase, looking for an opening.
On the other side, the Great Demon had turned into demonic energy and slipped into the ground…
