Chapter 1395: Light at the End of the Tunnel
The 20 members of the Primeval Mighty Miracle God Tribe were frustrated and annoyed to be met with an ambush.
Several of them didn't care if they would draw more attention and used the Prodigious Spirit Transformation to release their true forms.
Within the immortal designs, the stronger one was, the greater the restrictions he would feel. Moreover, more ghostly immortals swarmed towards them like a plague of locusts with a larger target.
The Gu Di Immortal Lord was one of the few that didn't revert to her true form. However, she wasn't having an easier time. This was because she was a beautiful girl after all, so she attracted the attention of the most ghostly immortals.
Countless attacks bombarded down, and Wu Yu slowly made his way behind the Gu Di Immortal Lord. He hid himself among the ghostly immortals and looked just like one of them. No one had noticed him.
Wu Yu was observing the Gu Huo Immortal Lord. Seeing how the Gu Huo Immortal Lord was being pinned down by the Blood Robed Ghostly King due to the inability to adapt, he instantly knew his opportunity was here!
The Gu Di Immortal Lord was playing her Demonic Flute of Ancient Tongues. What came out wasn't a melody, but ear-piercing notes that formed endless razor-sharp weapons. They shot out in all directions, leaving holes on the ghostly immortals. Soon, corpses laid everywhere. The truth was, they were even stronger than the Bloody Ghosts Sect, it was just that they had fallen into a trap.
The Ancient Ink Camp was still trapped within the Demonic Flute of Ancient Tongues.
Wu Yu found an opening while hiding among the ghostly immortals and stayed behind the Gu Di Immortal Lord. At this moment, mysterious symbols flickered in his eyes. He had cultivated his Eyes of Fire and Gold to a higher level and gave himself this opportunity to attack!
"Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth!"
The Furnace of Heaven formed rapidly over the head of the Gu Di Immortal Lord like clouds of fire. The Furnace of Earth started building like a volcano below her feet. Surging heat exploded at once and swept everything!
The Gu Di Immortal Lord had thought the sudden changes were new immortal designs triggered by ghostly immortals. After all, she had just resisted a fiery-red, flaming immortal design.
"Piece of cake!"
The Gu Di Immortal Lord cursed and wasn't too alarmed. She was already facing the attacks of numerous ghostly immortals and the bombardment of other immortal designs!
At this moment, the terrifying might of the Furnace of Earth and the Furnace of Heaven connected, caging the Gu Di Immortal Lord within and suppressing her. Endless golden flames spiralled and devoured the Gu Di Immortal Lord. Although they looked simple from the outside, the two furnaces formed a robust world of flames!
The Gu Di Immortal Lord was shocked and realized that the surrounding ghostly immortals and immortal designs had vanished. Around her were endless, surging flames, and she was trapped within the Furnaces of Heaven and Earth. As the furnaces collapsed, the flames of the entire world came crashing towards her!
"Argh!" She yelped in pain from the burns. However, it did nothing. Wu Yu had prepared for a long time before releasing the Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth to devour the Gu Di Immortal Lord. Immediately after, he collapsed them rapidly. Before the eyes of everyone, the Gu Di Immortal Lord was crushed into a miniscule, golden dot, as though vanishing completely. All of a sudden, the surrounding ghostly immortals were stumped. Most of them didn't catch where the Gu Di Immortal Lord had gone!
"Break!"
The collapse of the Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth was extreme. The endless flames in the boundless world were compressed infinitely. Wu Yu's autonomous realm power was overflowing and his mystiques were terrifying. As a result, the Gu Di Immortal Lord was completely engulfed by flames while still reeling in shock.
"Who!?"
She finally realized that someone was attacking her. However, even if she wanted to revert to her true form and used the Prodigious Spirit Transformation to enlarge in the flaming furnace world, it was too late. When collapsing to the smallest, a shockwave explosion almost blasted her into powder!
"Young Master, save me!" the Gu Di Immortal Lord shrieked. When she appeared again, most of her body was decimated beyond sight. Only her immortal spirit was complete, and if given time, she would still survive.
Seeing the greedy eyes of the surrounding ghostly immortals and the attacks from the immortal designs that were about to rain down on her, she broke down completely!
She regretted ever coming here! What kind of damned place was this?! These ghostly immortals were no different from imbeciles.
All of a sudden, she noticed a pair of terrifying eyes among the ghostly immortals. She finally understood that the almost lethal attack from before was from this man, and that he had hidden himself among the ghostly immortals!
"You!"
She didn't recognize who he was and only felt a pang of horror. At this moment, she was almost helpless while Wu Yu dashed in front of her with a sword and pierced through her body!
"Die!" Wu Yu's Blink Slayer flashed across.
"Chifeng Immortal Lord!"
The Gu Di Immortal Lord finally recognized him. Although Wu Yu had taken the appearance of a ghostly immortal, she realized who he was at the final moment.
However, it was too late. The Blink Slayer of Wu Yu's Floating Dreams Sword was quick, ruthless, and accurate. Her immortal spirit was shredded, and amidst the despair, the Gu Di Immortal Lord dissipated. Before her death, she even wanted to pull the Ancient Ink Camp out of the Demonic Flute of Ancient Tongues to protect her! After all, they were hostages that could be used against Wu Yu!
However, Wu Yu was quicker. He didn't have a choice. The Gu Di Immortal Lord had to die, or it would’ve been the eight members of the Ancient Ink Camp.
"Young Master!"
At the final moment, the Gu Di Immortal Lord's scream came to an abrupt halt. Wu Yu vaporized into black mist and swallowed the Gu Di Immortal Lord instantly. He had to take control of the Demonic Flute of Ancient Tongues before he could release the Ancient Ink Camp to safety.
There wasn't any time to consider how the Ancient Ink Camp would have to face the threat of the entire Primeval Mighty Miracle God Tribe. All Wu Yu could do now was protect them from losing their lives because of him.
The Demonic Flute of Ancient Tongues was placed in his Floating Dreams Pagoda immediately and the Gu Di Immortal Lord was devoured. At this moment, he had yet to digest her. However, he had accomplished his goal. As long as the Ancient Ink Camp was safe, Wu Yu wasn't worried about the Gu Huo Immortal Lord and the rest, regardless of how strong the Gu Huo Immortal Lord might be!
Immediately after settling all this, Wu Yu felt death breathing down on him!
"Chifeng Immortal Lord! You dare to kill Gu Di!?" A deafening roar exploded abruptly, stunning Wu Yu for an instant. The Gu Huo Immortal Lord had seen what had happened, and Wu Yu was surprised that he was so enraged and looked so deranged. Wu Yu had never seen him so furious before!
"Die!" At this moment, the Gu Huo Immortal Lord, whose eyes were raging in black flames, broke away from the Blood Robed Ghostly King to charge towards Wu Yu. He was ferocious, and when he swung his Greater Darkness Heaven in the air, dazzling light burst forth, forming shockwaves that shot towards Wu Yu!
This was an immortal king level attack with immense destructive power. At that split second, Wu Yu could only choose to avoid the edge of such a terrifying attack. At this moment, Wu Yu still wasn't a match for him. After he was done, he used the Somersault Cloud and fled the scene!
However, at the very last instant, before the Somersault Cloud took him away, Wu Yu still took a strike from one of the light blasts. Instantly, he felt excruciating pain ripping through his body. One of his thighs was shredded by the blast, and the surging destructive power flowed through his body towards his immortal spirit. He wanted to slay Wu Yu promptly.
"Suppress!"
Within his body, Wu Yu still had robust autonomous realm power. His physical body world was also tougher than those of the Primeval Mighty Miracle God Tribe to begin with. At this point, the destructive power couldn't enter, and after 15 minutes, it was expelled from Wu Yu's body. Throughout these 15 minutes, Wu Yu was constantly jumping further away until he could no longer see the star.
In the cosmos, Wu Yu treated the injuries on his body while driving out the destructive power from the Gu Huo Immortal Lord.
"He surely lives up to his name as the son of the Mighty Miracle God. The legacy he inherited isn't much different from mine. Although he's a 9-realm immortal lord, he can go toe to toe against an immortal king in battle. If I had not escaped in time, I would probably have died by his hand."
Wu Yu was a little fearful. He could clearly sense the immortal king-level power that the Gu Huo Immortal Lord possessed.
However, he had accomplished his goal in the chaotic situation and managed to save the Ancient Ink Camp.
He stopped at a place with no one within a 10,000 mile radius while slowly digesting the Gu Di Immortal Lord. The help he could get from someone like the Gu Di Immortal Lord was no longer apparent. He had devoured her mainly because he had to release the Ancient Ink Camp from the Demonic Flute of Ancient Tongues.
For Wu Yu, this wouldn't take long.
Soon, Wu Yu had completely assimilated the Gu Di Immortal Lord's memories. He realized that the Gu Di Immortal Lord came from a prominent background. Her parents had an even higher standing than the Gu Qiang Immortal Lord within the tribe, and both were at the ninth tier of the Great Void Immortal Realm. They were pillars of the Primeval Mighty Miracle God Tribe, and the Gu Di Immortal Lord could be considered as the precious princess of the Primeval Mighty Miracle God Tribe.
"It's not surprising that the Gu Huo Immortal Lord was so enraged after I killed her. So she was his lover."
The truth was, they had been having an affair since they were really young. Over the years, they had done the deed countless times too. The Gu Di Immortal Lord naturally wanted to become his dao companion, as they had done what a married couple would. However, the Gu Huo Immortal Lord seemed to look down on her and had yet to give her an answer. The Gu Huo Immortal Lord was the young master, and she couldn't have done anything other than stay by his side and fight for the opportunity to truly become his dao companion one day.
"Even though the Gu Huo Immortal Lord has his eyes on a bigger target like Mo Yuji, the Gu Di Immortal Lord was still his woman. It seems like the feud between us is cast in stone, but this isn't something I could have avoided."
There were lots of incidents where Wu Yu wasn't in control. If he had not killed the Gu Di Immortal Lord, she wouldn't have batted an eyelid while killing the Ancient Ink Camp if Wu Yu resisted.
Wu Yu finally controlled the Demonic Flute of Ancient Tongues and released the Ancient Ink Camp. Most of them were nursing severe injuries and looked frail and weak.
"Now that you've killed the Gu Di Immortal Lord, the Primeval Mighty Miracle God Tribe will definitely see you as a foe. It will be troublesome in the future." Xu Zidong sighed.
"I'm sorry to implicate my brothers and sister." Wu Yu was remorseful. He could get away after 100 years in the Great Void Immortal Path, but the Ancient Ink Camp would be in hot water unless they hid themselves well.
