Xu Shan gazed in the eyes of the middle aged man, whose legs went limp. The middle aged man fell to his knees, unable to even run. He thought that this was where he was going to die.
However, to his surprise, Xu Shan didn't pay attention to him. Leaving the middle aged man behind, Xu Shan started walking away, frowning.
The people here were so weak that he could kill them whenever he wanted, but that wasn't needed, as he had more important things to do!
He had to get that Celestial Lotus back, no matter what! Moreover, he also had to find out where Duan Mu went! Since he had a soul fragment of Duan Mu, he knew that the man was alive! However, for some reason, he couldn't locate that guy, as if he was in some special or restricted space.
The people in Xu Shan's path instinctively stepped aside, clearing a path for him to leave. Even the Sect Master stood silent. He wanted to approach Xu Shan, but seeing the frown on the young man's face, he didn't dare.
"How long was I sleeping?" Xu Shan asked Xinren, who followed closely behind.
The people watched him talk to himself, thinking something was wrong with his brain. However, they were relieved that he didn't seem to have any intention of attacking them.
"A little over a day," Xinren answered, as she described everything that happened from the moment he lost consciousness, including how the mountain was destroyed.
That whole incident slightly surprised Xu Shan. Even though he could feel some traces of his decay aura in the surroundings, but he still thought that the mountain was destroyed by the people from the Divine Realm before they left.
As he thought about those people, his blood was boiling. He didn't know much about the Divine Realm, other than the fact that it was somewhat similar to the Celestial Realm, albeit much stronger.
That was the extent of information he had. In fact, if those people hadn't mentioned where they were from, he probably wouldn't have known who they were, or where they were from.
Not only did they attack from behind, but they actually tried to kill him! But what angered him even more was that they killed the Snow Dragon, who he established a contract with!
The way they did it, right before his eyes was also irritating. He still remembered their gaze, that was looking down on him like he was an insect.
No matter what, he couldn't forget that insulting gaze.
"Are you really going to go after them? Those people... They are dangerous. And the one above them must be even more dangerous!" Xinren warned Xu Shan.
She knew how strong Xu Shan was. However, she also knew that those people were stronger. She had a good understanding in that regard. She was clear that even if that old man hadn't attacked him from behind, the chances of Xu Shan's victory in a straight battle was still close to none.
"They took what belongs to me..." Xu Shan replied.
"But they are-"
Xinren tried speaking, but Xu Shan cut her sentence in the middle as his tone became colder. "They took what belongs to me!"
He had gone through so much to get the Celestial Lotus. It was almost impossible to find another Celestial Lotus with how rare that thing was. No matter what, he had to take it back, before it was used!
"Are you going to use the Book then?" Xinren asked, frowning.
However, Xu Shan didn't reply. He stopped in a certain part of the area, where the footing of the mountain used to be.
"This is the last place where I can trace Duan Mu's aura. There's nothing from this point on..." He closed his eyes, using the soul fragment but he still couldn't find anything. It was as if the young man just disappeared from this point on.
"Do you think he found out the truth and ran away?" Xinren asked.
"Maybe, but it's unlikely," Xu Shan replied with a grim expression. "He knows I can kill him whenever I want, with his Soul Frag-"
"Huh?"
Xu Shan's expressions suddenly twisted, as he felt his connection with Duan Mu suddenly being cut! Not only was that connection cut, but even the Soul Fragment that was with him disappeared! The Soul Fragment was destroyed!
Every hold he had on Duan Mu was gone in an instant!
****
Inside the small space, Duan Mu was sitting in a meditative position. His eyes were closed, yet there was a mysterious aura surrounding him, as he kept chanting the words that were taught by the strange cat!
"Good. Only by destroying your mortal soul can you awaken your real soul! Destroy the old to create the new! Free yourself from all the worldly shackles and be reborn anew!" The Cat exclaimed, even after knowing that Duan Mu couldn't hear it.
The Mysterious Cat had a cunning grin on its face as it watched Duan Mu. It was unclear what was on its mind.
As Duan Mu kept chanting the words, not only did his soul awaken, but his body was also getting stronger physically. He started awakening more and more of his father's Bloodline, slowly Abandoning his human Bloodline!
He was willing to do anything in exchange for strength! He was willing to abandon anything! The more he awakened his Bloodline, the more the space around them became bigger.
"Like father, like son..." The Cat muttered, smirking. "This time, no one would be able to stop us!"
****
Xu Shan was left stubbed, as the fragment of Duan Mu's soul was destroyed, as if the young man had died.
At the same time, his contract with Duan Mu also became invalid. However, he had a feeling that it wasn't that simple...
Within a short time, he lost two contracts! He lost the Snow Dragon and now Duan Mu had disappeared as well. He had a really bad feeling about that.
