Chapter 130: Death

Chapter 130: Death

Li Huowang quivered as he looked at the “six people” in the distance. In his eyes, they were currently undergoing some huge changes.

Their bodies were the same, but their facial organs had changed, becoming completely distorted and elongated as they rearranged themselves to look like fleshy mahjong tiles.

“Stop! We will help you get rid of Dan Yangzi now!” shouted one of the Elders.

When Li Huowang heard those words, he smiled even on the verge of collapse. However, this smile was just an instinctive response; his heart didn’t feel any sense of joy. Even though he should have been happy now, the excruciating pain that was tormenting him made him incapable of experiencing any sense of joy.

All his strength was focused on resisting his strong urge to die.

At that moment, still confused, Li Huowang saw the Elder whose head resembled Three Bamboos speak.

“Xuan Yang, keep your legs crossed! Then, place your hands on your dantian, and guard your heart!”

Hearing this, Li Huowang tried his best to follow the instructions while the blood symbols around him started to sway along.

At the same time, Li Huowang saw the six Elders approach him, and sit down in a circle around him, about three feet away.

As the six people started to speak, unexpectedly, they did not recite some cryptic commands or strange incantations. Instead, they started asking rhetorical questions, their voice reverberating heavily.

“What does it mean to be sitting in oblivion?”

“Abandoning the body, deposing intelligence, detaching from the form, and transcending knowledge; this is what it means to be sitting in oblivion!”Discover new chapters at novelhall.com

As they conversed, their clothes started to billow in the wind as they floated into the air. At the same time, the colors around them began to distort.

“No!” A voice with an unknown origin rang out, occupying their hearts, and turning everything around them dim and colorless.

“No!” The six Elders responded simultaneously, their voices magnified immensely.

At the same time, the cracked skies began to be covered by some form of dark clouds.

Li Huowang’s merged senses gradually returned to normal, yet something felt a little different than before.

“With sitting comes movement. With forgetting comes remembrance. Without sitting, one ceases to do labor. Without forgetting, one’s mind becomes calm. When labor continues, the spirit is tranquil. When thoughts do not cease, the heart finds peace!”

As the chanting continued on and on, Li Huowang saw a trail of white smoke float out from the mahjong-patterned heads of each of the six Elders before intertwining and forming a rope that burrowed deep into the ground.

“This... impossible! I am an Immortal...!” These were Dan Yangzi’s final words.

After this last sentence, Dan Yangzi collapsed completely; everything about him turned into puffs of black clouds that floated into the skies. Before long, those black clouds had dissipated completely.

At almost the same time, Li Huowang began to vomit. With a belch, a mass of tentacles that had half a face entangled with it was expelled out.

The half-face that was entangled with the mass of tentacles belonged to Dan Yagnzi; currently, it had turned pale and emitted an extremely foul stench. It was clearly lifeless.

As he looked at the half-face in front of him, Li Huowang looked as though he was in a dream.

As the half-face gradually started to turn into ashes, Li Huowang picked it up with trembling hands.

Dan Yangzi was gone. At this moment, the ‘thing’ that had always been scheming to assimilate with himself was gone.

However, Li Huowang did not feel the slightest bit of happiness. Rather, he felt empty inside his heart. At the same time, the intense physical and mental pain prevented him from thinking about other more complex emotions.

On the other hand, the six Elders around Li Huowang all looked at one another, and then once again pointed their fingers toward Li Huowang again. As they did, the hook-shaped blood symbols around him slowly faded before returning to the ground.

The dark clouds in the skies had dissipated, and with this, the extremely far and high Ba-Hui once again became like the sun that illuminated them all.

At that moment, Li Huowang froze in place, ignoring everything around him. He did not want to know what the six Elders were up to.

At this point, it was already hard for him to resist the urge to seek death.

Li Huowang did not know when he fainted; the last thing he saw was the charred remains of Dan Yangzi.
