A year went by since the fall of Vino but the cultivation world about to fall into chaos. All over the continent oracles and divinity predictions, all say that natural treasure is about to be born in the mountain of Poison Mountain. All the predictions say that whoever manages to grab this treasure will manage to become immortal emperor without bottlenecks.
Upon hearing the predictions all the sects along with rouge cultivators began to move waiting for the treasure to come into existent. When all the cultivators were moving there was few that were still relaxed as if it another day.
“Lucifer today is the day we will defeat you,” Luna said holding her sword while Sia was behind him with her spear.
“Didn’t you guys say the same thing yesterday and the day before,” Lucifer said with a slight smile.
“That was yesterday and today is today,” Sia said.
“Are you going to start or what,” Lucifer said pulling out a book totally ignoring them.
Seeing that Lucifer pull out the book the girl's eyes flashed as they stepped forward and stab outward with Luna aiming for the head while Sia aimed for his heart. Lucifer simply leans to the side causing the sword to go by his head while the spear goes between his arm and chest.
Seeing him dodge Luna suddenly change the direction of her sword aiming for his neck few centimeters away while Luna swept sideways aiming to strike him hoping to disrupt his flow of the battle. Lucifer suddenly continued to lean to the side and put his free hand on the ground causing the weapon to pass him.
“He dodges it,” Moon said watching from the side.
“He sure got guts doing that way though,” Vin said.
Luna swung her sword back aiming for his Lucifer arm while Sia retracted her spear and jab out rapidly. Lucifer who still reading jump into the air with his hand turned his page before landing. Seeing that their attacks not land Sia and Luna began to add Qi into their attacks making their attacks move even faster and deadlier.
“They sure going all out,” Vin said with a lite laugh.
“Yeah but they still can't put a scratch on him though,” Moon said as he watched Lucifer continue to dodge by mere centimeters.
Lucifer continued to dodge their attacks for few hours without breaking a sweat or being touched once while the girls were breathing heavily as their energy was running dry.
“That was a good book,” Lucifer said while he closed his book and did a sweeping kick making the girls fall down.
“We lost again,” Luna said.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
“And he didn’t even pay attention to us,” Sia said in depress tone.
Seeing that they were done Vin and Moon walked over.
“You guys seem to be enjoying yourselves,” Moon said.
Sia and Luna just glared at him while he just smiles.
“Grandpa beat him up for me,” Luna said.
“I can’t beat him so… Good Luck,” Moon said giving a thumb up.
“Ugh,” Luna said.
“Why is all the disciple rushing out the sect for?” Sia asks since over the last few days the sect began to quiet down.
“There news of treasure being born in the near future so nearly all the cultivator is heading there to see if they can get their hand on it,” Vin said.
“Do they know what type of treasure it is,” Lucifer asked.
“It said that it would allow the one to breakthrough to Immortal emperor without a bottleneck,” Moon said.
“Really we must get it,” Luna said with shining eyes.
“Yeah let go,” Sia said.
“I’m not going,” Lucifer said.
“huh,”
“What,”
The other four were stunned as Lucifer said he wasn’t going. This treasure would allow one to breakthrough without a problem yet he doesn’t want it.
“Why?” Moon asks.
“Doesn’t the treasure sound too good to be true,” Lucifer said.
“Yeah, but it made by the heavens so how could it be it fake,” Moon asked.
“Who says that natural treasure always has to be a good treasure. Why can’t it be demonic treasure?” Lucifer pointed out throwing them for a loop.
“Err, Because the heaven doesn’t allow demonic cultivation,” Sia said.
“Then why does Heaven Tribulation also on us who cultivator what we consider the righteous way,” Lucifer said.
“…”
“You can go but I refuse,” Lucifer said before entering his house.
“I don’t want to go anymore,” Luna said.
“Me too,” Sia said.
“Vin good luck I’m going to stay and watch over them,” Moon said causing Vin to have black lines over his face.
“I have to teach them alchemy,” Vin said.
“That a dumb excuse,” Moon said.
“…”
‘If mine dumb what about yours to, if mine's dumb then what about yours?,’ Vin thought as he watches Moon walked away.
Many forms of this conservation went on around other places but this was in the minority as many were rushing there aiming for the treasure. In the Poison Mountain, tens of thousands were arriving everyday waiting for the treasure to appear.
The number of cultivators that were showing up has reached over million in few days and continue to grow by thousands.
While they surround the mountain the energy in the air began to condense rapidly causing all who showed up a smile. The weather begins to downpour and lightning rained down ready but all the cultivators didn’t mind as they were waiting for the treasure.
Bang!
The treasure was born causing all the cultivator to rush forward trying to get their hand on it. The closer one got to the treasure the more fighting there was as thousand were dying every seconds causing the blood to form a river.
While everyone was fighting a rogue cultivator manage to touch the treasure causing him to scream in pain as all the blood and a large amount of energy rushed into to his body causing his vision to turn red and horns with black scales to form over him. The more it absorbed the more powerful it became causing all the living cultivator to feel their blood leave their body.
“Run,” was the thought of everyone who gave up trying to receive the treasure but how could the treasure allow this to happen.
When everyone died the rouge, cultivator left with the treasure looking for the next victim. News of over a million-cultivator dying at the mountain caused shock to the world.
“Lucifer was right again,” Moon said.
“Now we have a problem with the demon treasure,” Vin said.
“We will get through this,” Moon said but doubt was present in his voice.
“It will be fine it will work out somehow it always had,” Vin said.
“Hope so,” Moon said.
