Pathway To Eternity

Shao Cheng had used his most powerful move, the Two Dimensional Steps. With one step, the opponent will enter the frozen space, another step and the opponent's soul will be stuck in time becoming a living statue. The soul will forever be in continuum until the body is shattered. However, few seconds after that, the space was shattered and the force-field area returned back to normal.

"How intriguing. You must be a late-stage Presider, an evanesce core, yet you can almost display the strength of an early Jindan, the weakest Jindan by the way. How can you compare to the wonder called myself? But, it was still interesting to see. Maybe I will take your core after all. You, come to one side and stay. Not that you have any other choice, or do you?"

Shao Cheng moved to the right side and stayed like a statue.

The revenant turned to the others but found himself holding the Sinnughar core. Smile broke over his face and held the core high up.

"At last, I have the core. Now I can go home to a befitting welcome and many rewards. Hahaha."

Li Ling couldn't hold the move any longer. How could she? She was only an evanesce core cultivator of the house of dreams and illusion. As a genius core disciple, she had taken the Ultimate Mirage technique. Now, she was using her most powerful technique, the Dream Life. The Dream-Life was a powerful technique that could ultimately lock the soul of an opponent in a dream world. By the time the body was shattered, the opponent wouldn't realize the radiant the light of reincarnation. But she was using it against a much more powerful opponent. Blood was streaking down the corner of her mouth and her strength was leaving her.

The Dream Life surrounding started to fluctuate.

"Ahhh. What? An illusion? Incredible. I've heard about the power of your kinds, now, I have witnessed it for myself. Truly magnificent. Are you sure we are not related? Is your father a revenant? Or is it your mother? No? Such a pity. We could have been friends, dream caster. Ah. That's me sighing. For me to be remembering you, I will take your core with me. I believe that's good enough or what do you think? You can come to the side too."

Li Ling was invisibly dragged to Shao Cheng side and remained like a statue too.

Su Ming couldn't think properly. Why was this happening? Where are the elders? What of the sect's security? Was she going to die like this? Her parents. Her clan. They've all contributed for her to be in this sect. How would they take her death? No, she could not afford to die.

While the revenant was still dealing with Li Ling, Su Ming took out her ancestral heirloom, the Arroros needle. She knew she wasn't at the level of using it but she couldn't simply wait to be killed without doing anything. She also removed a seal from her bag, imbued all her Chi energy and her intention into the seal. She put the Arroros needle on the seal, put some of her blood on the needle and seal before launching it in the direction of the revenant.

The moment the revenant turned, it was surprised to see a giant, dangerous looking needle flying towards him because he wasn't expecting another sudden attack. He could feel the power and intent behind the needle. Definitely, a nascent soul level at the least or an ascendant. This was a formidable opponent. How could a Presider use a nascent soul attack? SEAL. She must have used a seal.

In an instant, he took out his weapons too. Two transparent saber swords made from the fangs of a primordial dragon-like beast. The force-field grew stronger and was vibrating with a buzzing sound. He sent a wave of invisible attack towards the approaching needle.

The giant needle with an immense power that was causing the space to fluctuate collided with the invisible attack and the sound of the impact was like that of a dragon thunder.

Su Ming was knocked flying to the side but was still inside the Golden Phantom Seal locked area. She could feel her legs paralyzed, hands twisted and was vomiting blood profusely. She knew she had come to the limit of herself and couldn't take any more attack. The revenant too was knocked few steps back.

The needle had split into one thousand needles and formed the Thousand Water Cycle. But the Chi energy had run out of the seal causing the needle to shrink and return back to Su Ming.

But the disruption caused by the needle was enough for the grand elder to discover the location of the disturbance and sent his sword in the direction. Asenys, a luminous sword, was one of the several artifacts created by the first of the Cosmic divines, the three pure ones and was only inferior to a divine weapon. A space-time weapon that it was, it locked the position of the disturbance and immediately appeared inside the golden phantom area. It warped the space and shattered the seal making the whole area visibly manifested.

The disciples who had been passing through the place without noticing anything had to scramble away when they saw the area manifesting out of thin air.

The luminous sword continued towards the revenant causing space rifts to appear around.

The revenant expression changed when he saw what was happening.

"A luminous treasure?"

How is this even fair? How many cultivators he had to kill before he could have these pair of sabers? And they are only heavenly treasures.

He quickly used the his teleportation seal. But he wasn't teleported beyond the sect's premises.

"Hm, why am I still here?"

"You can escape from this place, revenant. The whole place is under Heavens Gate lock. I believe you never saw that coming. How can you think of leaving after what you've done?"

"Phantom Whispers."

Without waiting for more words, the revenant took out his sabers and sent out his attack. Thousands of whispering phantom heads raced towards the grand elder.
