Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripturei

Translator: 549690339

Li Cheng did not rush to throttle the Nascent Soul because this fellow was an Eighteen Tribulations Loose Immortal; his status within the Ten Thousand Evils Cave must be extremely high!

Undoubtedly, he would be able to divulge many of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave’s secrets.

However, Li Cheng had not anticipated that under the control of his Sword Path Rules, a hint of amusement flitted across the old one’s eyes.

Without a doubt, there was something odd afoot!

Without an ounce of hesitation, Li Cheng activated the Time Law, enveloping everything within several yards of himself.

The next moment, the childlike voice of the old fellow rang out, “You… have… been… tricked…”

In Li Cheng’s ears, this voice was slowed down several times, and it was so comical that he nearly wanted to laugh!

The sound seemed to come from all directions, making it eerily odd.

But that wasn’t the focus. The focus was that the Nascent Soul, sealed by his Sword Path Rules, began to swell!

That was self-detonation!

“Slash!”

With a thought, Li Cheng unleashed myriad sword lights that rampaged through the area, successfully shattering the Nascent Soul just before it could self-destruct.

For a moment, the sky was filled with a boundless storm of True Yuan and Immortal Yuan, creating a tempest that swept across hundreds of miles.

Immediately thereafter, spiritual rain began to fall from the sky, and the concentration of nature’s spiritual energy in the area soared exponentially.

Li Cheng frowned, instantly realizing that the old fellow had used that playful look and his self-detonation to force him into action!

This time, he had truly been duped!

The old fellow’s Nascent Soul had been caught; he must have been worried about the Ten Thousand Evils Cave’s secrets being exposed, so he deliberately used that playful gaze to trigger Li Cheng’s alertness.

He deliberately self-detonated to give Li Cheng no chance to think and forced him into action.

And the reason for doing this was because, if he self-detonated, he would be utterly obliterated, but if he were slain, there might be a chance to leave behind some remnant souls.

If Li Cheng hadn’t acted, then he would have successfully self-detonated, thus similarly preventing the secrets of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave from being revealed.

And he might have even severely injured Li Cheng!

“What a decisive old fellow; he must have contemplated countless times the day he would be captured,” Li Cheng said to himself with a wry shake of the head. Finding the old fellow’s storage ring, he turned to leave but suddenly sensed something and looked toward where the Nascent Soul had been destroyed.

There, strange fluctuations were slowly converging!

In the Taoist Mysterious Sect, Feng Wanli stared intently in the direction of Li Cheng. He could feel the rapid change of spiritual energy from that direction; without a doubt, the ancestor had perished!

The next second, Li Cheng appeared before him and tossed over the storage ring, “1 couldn’t capture him alive. This old fellow was too decisive. 1 hope there will be discoveries in his storage ring.”

“This is your spoils of war, you’re giving this to me?” Feng Wanli asked, puzzled.

“I’m giving it to you to see if you can find anything related to the Ten Thousand Evils Cave or its secrets. Give it back to me after you’ve checked!” Li Cheng said with a chuckle.

This old fellow had lived for more than ten thousand years. His accumulated wealth was not to be underestimated. Since Feng Wanli asked like that, Li Cheng certainly could not be polite.

Feng Wanli gave a dry laugh and began examining the storage ring, but gradually his expression turned bizarre.

“What’s wrong?” Li Cheng asked, puzzled. He hadn’t even checked the storage ring himself yet; what was with that expression?

“Something’s off. There are only a few million Spirit Stones and a few Pills in this old fellow’s storage ring?” Feng Wanli said, suspicious.

Li Cheng also took a look and raised an eyebrow, “1 never touched it, don’t blame me, eh!”

“No, that’s not what I meant. 1 just find it strange. This old guy clearly had control of an Immortal Artifact of the sect; he should always carry it on him.”

“Moreover, this old geezer has a unique hobby: he always has an endless supply of candy, and I never see his daily necessities, so 1 suspect he has other storage rings.”

The Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod flew over, and the shadow of Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan drifted out from within, “Well, now do you realize how formidable you are?”

“Senior’s timing is perfect, this spirit talisman is a bit strange, please take a look.”

As Li Cheng spoke, he took out a spirit talisman wrapped in black qi from his storage ring.

This spirit talisman was exactly what slowly condensed after the Nascent Soul dissipated—he feared he would have missed it if he had left any sooner.

The odd thing was, as soon as the spirit talisman formed, it charged at Li Cheng, who then suppressed it with his spiritual sense, calming it down.

The spirit talisman was not solid, merely the size of a palm, ethereal in form yet covered in countless unique patterns.

“A spirit talisman?”

Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan looked at the talisman in Li Cheng’s hand, and the next moment, his expression gradually turned ugly, with anger, fear, and even more so, a killing intent!

But in an instant, Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan calmed down again, “Left by that Tribulation Loose Immortal of the eighteen tribulations?”

“Exactly!”

Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and murmured, “This thing has indeed reappeared in the world!”

Li Cheng and Feng Wanli exchanged glances, both seeing the confusion in each other’s eyes. A mere spirit talisman could make a grand Immortal Emperor so melancholic?

What in the world is this thing?

“About twenty million years ago, an unparalleled genius appeared in the Immortal World. He understood an extremely bizarre cultivation technique from one of the ten great odd scriptures, the Seize Heaven Scripture. This technique allowed one to endlessly split their own soul and seize others’ bodies as their avatars.”

“At that time, the genius had nearly ten thousand avatars, and each avatar had reached an extremely high realm!”

“Once this secret was discovered, top powerhouses from half the Immortal World joined forces to besiege him. It is said that after hundreds of years, with countless top powerhouses perishing, the ultimate outcome was that the person completely disappeared!”

Li Cheng and Feng Wanli listened in silence, awestruck—truly a formidable figure!

“This person was known as the Ten Thousand Aspects Evil Monarch, and the cultivation technique he mastered was none other than the Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture, the foremost of the forbidden arts!”

“The Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture was all about splitting one’s own soul to condense the Ten Thousand Aspects Soul Seal, and using the soul seal to snatch others’ bodies, becoming one’s own avatar.”

Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan explained, and once again looked at the spirit talisman floating in Li Cheng’s hand—that was the Ten Thousand Aspects Soul Seal!

“A hundred thousand years ago, the Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture reemerged in the Immortal World. Thankfully, we discovered it early, and the siege was very successful. We slashed all two thousand of his avatars, leaving only more than ten Immortal Emperors who fled to the Kunlun Realm, who were later slain by the Grand Venerable Bai Jie of the Kunlun Realm.”

Li Cheng raised an eyebrow, “Two thousand Immortal Emperors?”

“No, True Immortals, Profound Immortals, Golden Immortals, Daluo Golden Immortals, Immortal Monarchs, Immortal Kings, and Immortal Venerables of various realms. There were only about ten avatars that had reached the Immortal Emperor realm.”

Feng Wanli quickly asked, “Senior, who was the one practicing the Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture at that time?”

Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan shook his head, “It was well concealed. With the avatars dead, the main body wasn’t found.”

Li Cheng stroked his chin and transmitted his voice, “Senior, did you fall during that time? Because the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture was exposed?”

Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan looked at Li Cheng, hesitant for a moment, but still transmitted back, “That’s right, one moment they were allies, the next they launched a surprise attack on me. So… let’s not talk about it.”

“Keep this Ten Thousand Aspects Soul Seal safe. Whether you can find any other avatars in the future depends on it,” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan said, and then floated back into the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod.

Li Cheng continued stroking his chin, it was clear—the big shots of the Immortal World couldn’t stand seeing others become powerful.

The Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture was powerful, and thus its practitioner was besieged. The same went for the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture.

However, the Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture involved seizing others’ bodies and many of them at that, which indeed was not a benevolent technique, so a siege was also proper.

But the issue with the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture was unjustified.

Li Cheng shook his head secretly and no longer dwelled on it, turning instead to Feng Wanli, “You better hurry up and find your ancestor’s treasure.. It must be in his dwelling!”
