Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

"Heavenly Sword Saint Technique!"

"Sun-Shattering Gale!"

Luo Hou unleashed his demonic energy and struck out with a palm. With Jun Fengtian's trial move as a precedent, even a fraction of his true power was enough to gauge the depth of the Xuanhuang Three Realms.

The seemingly casual move drew upon all the demonic energy in the world, forming a black hurricane vortex hundreds of feet deep, which absorbed all of the divine oracle's sword energy.

"This is... demonic energy!"

Tianji's mind was shaken violently, and the divine oracle almost flew out of his hand.

The righteous energy of the immortal sects originally had a strong ability to restrain evil and heretical forces, but at this moment, it was the demonic wind that restrained the immortal energy, the righteous force declined while the demonic force grew, and the holy sword lost its luster.

Are you injured?

Luo Hou frowned, sensing the stagnation of the Heavenly Trace True Essence within his palm energy, feeling powerless to reach it, which made the game rather uninteresting.

"No problem, let's try again, riding the clouds and waves with unparalleled prowess!"

This is a move created by Tianji by combining the unique skills of the Jade Gate family and the Immortal Sect. Its power is unparalleled.

In an instant, the sword light shot straight for thousands of miles, like an immortal roaming the universe, slaying all the demons and monsters in the world.

Immediately, an unparalleled sword aura descended from the sky, unstoppable by heaven and earth, capable of cleaving mountains and splitting peaks.

Luo Hou reduced his power by another 20%, changed his palm into a fist, and slammed it upward, crashing into the vast sword energy.

Bang!

The sword light dissipated, the sword energy dimmed, and the divine oracle let out a mournful cry before falling limply.

The aftershocks of the punch continued to strike Tianji. Despite being protected by the aura of a divine emperor, Tianji was still shaken and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"This tactic is flashy but impractical."

"not necessarily."

Then, Tianji once again used the secret techniques of the Cloud Sea Immortal Sect.

The Rising Cloud Hand draws power from the void, while the Immortal Steps gather strength from the clouds, borrowing the power of heaven and earth to instantly increase one's power several times over.

Upon seeing the secret technique of the immortal sect, the Desert Eagle's expression changed drastically: "This move! It really is you!"

When the Heavenly Trace had accumulated its power to the extreme, the Divine Decree suddenly shone brightly. The boundless immortal energy propelled the famous sword Fengyun, causing the heavens and earth to tremble. The sword's light roared at the sun, and even the plants and trees of the Heavenly Capital could not withstand its power, turning into broken branches and scattered leaves.

"Wind is a sword? Clouds are a sword? The blade of heaven and earth cuts through immortal traces!"

Before Luo Hou could react, a flash of cold light appeared behind Tian Ji, and the eagle's wing transformed into a sharp blade, piercing Tian Ji's back fiercely.

"Ah! How could this be!"

Tianji turned around in astonishment, only to be met with another hateful kick that sent him flying several feet.

The long-held suspicions were finally confirmed. The desert eagle's eyes widened in fury, and it brandished its sword in a rage: "Why? Why you!"

"Brother Condor?"

Tianji struggled to his feet, his face still showing disbelief and astonishment.

But then a desert eagle roared, "Don't call me that stupid name!"

"We shouldn't be like this."

"I have finally waited for this day to pay for the lives of the innocent victims of the Valley of the Wind."

"I...don't understand."

"The culprit who wiped out your clan, still trying to play dumb!"

The desert eagle threw down a blood-stained handkerchief and shouted sternly, "Back then, hundreds of lives in the Valley of the Wind were lost to this invisible killing move. I have suspected you for a long time, but you have never revealed any flaws until today."

Although Tianji felt bewildered, he still forced himself to explain despite his pain: "My friend, I really don't know what happened."

"Go to the underworld and explain to the innocent, drink!"

A single, merciless strike cleaves the sky.

Luo Hou watched this scene with a cold eye, and seeing that the desert eagle, despite its inner struggle, still managed to strike down with the blade, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Back then, when Di Ming was investigating the Eight Legions of Heavenly Evil, he tracked them down to the Valley of the Wind. Unable to distinguish the evil spirits, he slaughtered everyone in the Valley of the Wind except for the Desert Eagle.

Although he was masked at the time, he used this secret technique of the Cloud Sea Immortal Sect.

Afterwards, Di Ming took in and nurtured the Desert Eagle, then sent him to Tian Ji's side as an undercover agent, misleading the Desert Eagle into believing that Tian Ji was the true culprit who wiped out the clan.

Luo Hou waved his hand, separating the two.

"I will not interfere in your personal feuds, but I cannot allow anyone to commit atrocities in the heavens."

"What do you want!"

The desert eagle roared in resentment.

"He leaves, you stay."

Unexpectedly, Tianji smiled sadly: "I'm sorry, even if I die here, I will take my friend out with me."

"Ok?"

"Wu Jun, there are many doubts about the Valley of the Wind. Could you give Tianji some more time? I will definitely give you an explanation."

Tianji's tone was almost pleading.

Luo Hou stared at the blood-stained Tianji. He was truly sincere to his friend. If it were him and Huang Quan, he would also do everything in his power to get the other out.

Well, this is their own fate intertwined.

"You can leave with the Desert Eagle, but I must warn you, once possessed by an evil spirit, I will kill whoever it is."

"Tianji will not allow such a thing to happen to his friend."

Chapter 375 The Savior of the Elf World

Even after traveling a hundred miles from Tiandu, the Desert Eagle's hatred remained undiminished, and it drew its blade once more.

“My friend, this concerns the Cloud Sea Immortal Sect. Tianji will surely give you an explanation, but I cannot die at your hands like this.”

All that could be seen was that Tianji used all his remaining strength to retreat on the celestial wind.

"Chase!"

Transforming into the shape of an eagle, it relentlessly pursued the enemy.

The Desert Eagle knew this was the best opportunity. He was far inferior to Tianji in martial arts, and if he waited for Tianji to recover from his injuries, he would have no hope of revenge in this life.

Just as the desert eagle was about to catch up, a powerful aura rushed towards them.

"Get out!"

"It's you again, Jun Fengtian!"

"Why you?"

“I have been waiting by his side for so many years, just for this opportunity today.”

"say clearly!"

The desert eagle was filled with grief and indignation: "I am the last survivor of the Wind Clan, the same race that was destroyed by the Heavenly Traces."

Jun Fengtian helped Tianji up and said decisively, "It must be a misunderstanding."

"You're all birds of a feather!"

"Leave!"

"Jun Fengtian, you cannot save Tianji."

The desert eagle retreated in anger, leaving Tianji with a bitter smile: "I don't know what happened either, but it must be related to the Cloud Sea Immortal Sect."

"Another immortal sect?"

While Jun Fengtian healed Tianji's wounds, he listened to him recount the whole story of his trip to Tiandu.

"I never imagined that Rahu also knew about the Eight-Headed Serpent God. He said there are evil spirits in the Valley of the Wind. Fengtian, where exactly did Master bury the eight dragon heads back then?"

Jun Fengtian had just returned to the Cloud Sea Immortal Sect and was going through the relics left by the Nine Heavens Mystic Venerable when he finally discovered the location of the dragon's head that the Mystic Venerable had sealed in the "Subduing Dragon Diagram".

"The four dragon heads sealed by the father are located in Elf World·Chaotic God Peak, Western Huang Buddhist Realm Line, Qushan Stone Road·Blind Sword Forest and Daowu King Valley·Yuyu Hall respectively. The other four dragon heads were taken away by the four surviving swordsmen. Currently, it is known that one of them is in Xishan Biecao Pavilion."

"The Western Buddhist Realm and Dao Martial King Valley are exceptionally powerful. Venerable Buddha Su He Nian and Dao Emperor Sheng Wu Ji are ranked among the four great founders of the Dao. Although the two predecessors have passed away, they must have made arrangements. However, the strength of the Elf World and Qushan Stone Path is unknown."

While meditating and regulating his breathing, Tianji pondered the safety of the dragon's head.

"Ah."

Jun Fengtian looked gloomy. He had thought that once Tianji recovered from his injuries, the two of them could start working on the Dragon Head. But now, behind the Desert Eagle's revenge was another conspiracy targeting Tianji.

How many secrets does the Cloud Sea Immortal Sect still hold?

"I've heard that Daowu King Valley has sealed itself off, and we know nothing about its internal situation. I'll first go to the Blind Sword Forest to investigate, and then proceed to the Elf World and the Western Buddhist Realm."

Tianji then said, “Fengtian, since Luohou knows about the Eight-Headed Evil God, why not act together with him? I observe that Tianzhe’s strength is unfathomable, and Yiye Shu is also a potential partner.”

Jun Fengtian remained silent for a long time before saying, "This is my father's last wish. As his son, how can I let others complete it and tarnish my father's reputation?"

"Ok?"

Tianji couldn't quite understand Jun Fengtian's words.

Jun Fengtian did not explain: "Take good care of your injuries. I will take you back to Xianjiao first."

At this moment, in the Eternal Night Theater, the instigator, Di Ming, was unaware that Tian Ji had been stabbed and was leisurely drinking red wine.

When the clown puppet saw that Di Ming's face was as bright as sunshine after the rainy season, he couldn't help but feel happy too.

"Is the divine being pleased because my body is healing?"

"Not only that."

"what is that?"

"After many years, seeing him in such a lively state makes me very happy for him."

Kui Yi understood that the God of the Underworld referred to Tianji, and the wax figure of the Eternal Night Theater was right in front of him, almost finished being sculpted.

He felt a pang of jealousy for no apparent reason. It was an undeniable fact that they were at odds, but was it necessary to hold onto an enemy in his heart like this?
