Chapter 1487: Gathering of Half-Martial Ancestors

　　Translator: Legge

　　“Young master, we’re letting her off just like that?”

　　Tao Yao turned his head slightly and asked in confusion.

　　“Of course, what else is there?”

　　The Martial Dao Prime Body smiled.

　　“Will Rakshasa Yu expose the secret of your prime body?” Tao Yao was worried.

　　“No,”

　　The Martial Dao Prime Body shook his head. “That woman is prideful. Since I gave her hope, she’ll definitely obsess over it and hope to defeat me one day.”

　　“Furthermore,”

　　The Martial Dao Prime Body smiled gently. “I left a Martial Spirit imprint on her Essence Spirit. If she’s truly dishonest and has second thoughts, there’s no need to keep her alive.”

　　The moment the Martial Dao Furnace refined Rakshasa Yu’s Bloodline phenomenon, the Martial Dao Prime Body had already left that imprint!

　　At that time, Rakshasa Yu’s life was hanging by a thread and she was flustered, so she did not realize it at all!

　　If the Martial Dao Prime Body discovered anything unusual about Rakshasa Yu, her Essence Spirit would be burned to ashes by the Martial Spirit Fire with a single thought!

　　The methods of the Martial Dao Prime Body were almost godly!

　　“Young master, why did you ask her to protect Ethereal Peak?”

　　Tao Yao thought for a moment and asked again, “Is Ethereal Peak in any danger?”

　　“I don’t know,”

　　The Martial Dao Prime Body shook his head. “However, the Green Lotus True Body is cultivating in the Kunlun Ruins and has not appeared for a long time. The Rakshasa race can’t wait any longer and already has designs on Ping Yang Town. It won’t be surprising for anyone to target Ethereal Peak.”

　　“It’s just a safety precaution. It’ll be best if no one has any designs on Ethereal Peak. If anyone truly doesn’t know what’s good for them, Rakshasa Yu will be able to handle them given her strength.”

　　Rakshasa Yu was the young mistress of the Rakshasa race and was at the Conjoint Body realm. However, even human Half-Martial Ancestors might not be able to gain any advantage against her!

　　Only the strongest Half-Martial Ancestors of the human race could fight against her!

　　Right now, Ethereal Peak could not even be considered as an upper sect.

　　Even if anyone targeted Ethereal Peak, the strongest would only be Conjoint Body Mighty Figures or Half-Martial Ancestor experts.

　　Mahayana Patriarchs were all in the advanced ancient battlefield—who would waste time to come to the North Region to do such a thing?

　　“Young master, I can help to protect Ethereal Peak as well!”

　　Tao Yao raised his head slightly and clenched his fists.

　　For some reason, after the Martial Dao Prime Body subdued Rakshasa Yu, Tao Yao felt that his status seemed to have been challenged.

　　The Martial Dao Prime Body smiled. “You still have to protect me.”

　　“Ah?

　　Tao Yao was stunned.

　　The Martial Dao Prime Body still required protection?

　　“I’m about to break through,”

　　The Martial Dao Prime Body said indifferently and stood up to head to his room. “Tao Yao, I’ll leave Ping Yang Town to you.”

　　“Don’t worry, young master!”

　　Tao Yao agreed hurriedly.

　　…

　　North Region, Glass Palace.

　　A middle-aged cultivator stood in front of a cave abode on an immortal mountain. He was tall and wore a glass Daoist robe that shone with a rainbow luster under the sunlight—it was extremely beautiful!

　　The person stood in midair and shone with a divine light. He was like a god with a terrifying aura!

　　Chen Yu!

　　He was a Half-Martial Ancestor of Glass Palace!

　　Chen Yu’s life was also a legend.

　　When he was young, he experienced wars and lost his family, turning into an orphaned child. Relying on the fact that he had a strong and tall figure from a tender age, coupled with his ruthless nature despite his youth, he gathered a group of people before long and lived off robbing others.

　　Later on, a Dao Lord of Glass Palace appreciated his potential and he stepped onto the path of cultivation, soaring through the skies thereafter!

　　Be it the Golden Core Phenomenon Ranking or Heaven and Earth Dharma Characteristic Ranking, Chen Yu was one of the top three existences back then and was lauded as one of the strongest paragons of that generation!

　　Before long.

　　Suddenly, an auspicious cloud floated over from the distant skies.

　　Four figures rode on the cloud and their auras were not inferior to Chen Yu!

　　Another four Half-Martial Ancestor experts!

　　“Hahahaha!”

　　Chen Yu burst into laughter and rode the wind, taking the initiative to welcome them. “Fellow Daoists, how have you been?”

　　The four Half-Martial Ancestors came from different sects.

　　The one in the middle was Chaos Essence Sect’s Half-Martial Ancestor Di Fan.

　　Another person was skinny and had an indifferent expression. Standing there, he was like an unsheathed sword with a sharp killing intent!

　　This was Half-Martial Ancestor Di Jue of Sword Sect!

　　The cultivator on the left had a square face and looked dignified as his body shone with faint lightning—he was Half-Martial Ancestor Kong Xiao of Zephyr Thunder Palace.

　　The cultivator on the right wore a dark golden Dharmic robe with mysterious stars tattooed on it. This was from Heavenly Dipper Sect, Half-Martial Ancestor Illumination!

　　The five Half-Martial Ancestor experts were considered notorious. In the cultivation world, every single one of them would attract countless gazes wherever they went!

　　Furthermore, there were five Half-Martial Ancestors gathered!

　　Among the five Half-Martial Ancestors, some of them were even paragons and monster incarnates of the same generation who had fought before!

　　“We’ve all been cultivating and comprehending the Dao of divine powers. Indeed, it’s been a long time,”

　　Di Fan said in a deep voice, “If Desolate Martial hadn’t appeared out of nowhere in this generation, the few of us probably wouldn’t have been alarmed.”

　　“However, we realized it too late,”

　　Half-Martial Ancestor Illumination of Heavenly Dipper Sect shook his head. “I heard that in the battle at Enigma Palace, this lad’s combat strength was torrential and even the Palace Lord of Enigma Palace was suppressed by him!”

　　“This lad has already matured. Even if we join forces, we might not stand a chance of winning,”

　　Half-Martial Ancestor Kong Xiao of Zephyr Thunder Palace sighed gently.

　　“Hmph!”

　　Suddenly, Sword Sect’s Half-Martial Ancestor Di Jue sneered, “If you guys are afraid, I alone am enough! Let’s see if Desolate Martial’s Heaven Slaying Sword Art is stronger or my Earth Slaying Sword Art!”

　　Both Half-Martial Ancestor Illumination and Half-Martial Ancestor Kong Xiao frowned.

　　They were all Half-Martial Ancestor experts and had similar reputations to Half-Martial Ancestor Di Jue. Naturally, they could not hold it in any longer after being mocked by Di Jue.

　　“Alright, this rare gathering is to deal with Desolate Martial. Don’t fight among ourselves first and let others laugh at us,”

　　Chen Yu tried to smooth things over.

　　Half-Martial Ancestor Di Jue still had a disdainful expression.

　　The Earth Slaying Sword Art had always been in Sword Sect. However, that sword art was difficult to comprehend and cultivate.

　　Throughout history, there were very few people who could cultivate that sword art!

　　In order to increase the combat strength of Sword Sect cultivators, the Sword Emperor used the Earth Slaying Sword Art as a foundation and deduced the Lifeless Sword Art.

　　The cultivation of the Lifeless Sword Art was relatively simple compared to it.

　　Of course, its power was far inferior to the Earth Slaying Sword Art as well.

　　Half-Martial Ancestor Di Jue indeed had the right to be proud!

　　If a life and death battle were to break out, he would be the one most likely to survive among the five of them!

　　Half-Martial Ancestor Di Jue did not have any deep feud with Su Zimo.

　　He only had a single goal for coming out of seclusion—the Heaven Slaying Sword Art in Su Zimo’s possession!

　　If he could obtain the Heaven Slaying Sword Art, he would definitely be able to advance to the Mahayana realm smoothly and his future potential would be unimaginable!

　　“Everyone, the main reason why we’re heading to Ethereal Peak is to force Desolate Martial to appear!”

　　Di Fan said in a deep voice, “From the information I gathered, Desolate Martial is an extremely loyal person. If he knew about this, he would definitely barge in foolishly even if he knew that it was a trap!”

　　“That’s a good plan,”

　　Half-Martial Ancestor Illumination nodded. “Once Desolate Martial appears, even if we can’t defeat him with our joined forces, experts of the Primordial Six Races will definitely be able to lock him down!”

　　“At that time, Desolate Martial will definitely die!”
