Chapter 871: Death of an Overlord
“Don’t fret, continue to gather your spirit consciousness and release your secret skill!”
Suddenly, a voice sounded in Su Zimo’s mind.
The voice sounded familiar but he could not recall where he knew it from.
Immediately after, a tremendous amount of pure Essence Spirit power surged into his consciousness and helped him to stabilize the Rulai Dharmic Seal that was about to disperse!
The Essence Spirit power was rich and pure with a mild burning sensation.
Su Zimo’s Essence Spirit seemed incomparably insignificant in the face of this amount of energy.
The swastika symbol on his glabella that had initially dissipated into golden spots and was scattered everywhere, on the verge of complete dispersion.
However, with the support of that Essence Spirit power, Sanskrit sounded in Su Zimo’s consciousness once again and the phantom figure of the gigantic Buddha materialized.
The golden spots that were initially dispersed converged rapidly and formed an ancient symbol that radiated with a blinding golden glow!
The moment the golden symbol descended, the entire world seemed as though it was frozen!
The symbol carried a shuddering and frightening aura!
The voids were caving in!
There was no power that could stand in the path of the golden symbol!
The Rulai Dharmic Seal suppressed everything!
“Ah!”
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak shrieked and his eyes widened with disbelief.
There was no way a low-level fiend demon could release an Essence Spirit secret skill as such!
With no time to hesitate, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak channeled his weakened Essence Spirit and released another Essence Spirit secret skill to meet the golden symbol that was floating over in midair.
The two Essence Spirit secret skills clashed in midair.
However, there was no sound!
The void around the collision distorted!
Right in front of Su Zimo’s eyes, the Essence Spirit secret skill released by the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was suppressed with ease by the golden symbol – it was crushed into dust and dissipated!
The golden symbol merely paused briefly in midair before it printed itself onto the glabella of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak and vanished within!
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak jolted.
The next moment, his gaze froze up and dimmed. His expression stiffened and his lifeforce dissipated at a rapid pace!
Without Dharmic power to suppress the wound on his broken arm, it split open and blood gushed out in a stream.
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak fell forward stiffly.
Bang!
He laid on the ground motionlessly. Although his eyes were widened, there was no light in them at all.
The anaconda tendon on Su Zimo’s body slid down as though they were no longer controlled.
With his freedom returned to him, Su Zimo scanned his spirit consciousness across the body of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak. All he felt was the stench of death without any lifeforce at all.
Su Zimo peered into the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s consciousness with his spirit consciousness and his heart skipped a beat.
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s consciousness was dried up and reeked of death. There was an Essence Spirit that was split apart and completely destroyed!
An Overlord had fallen!
Even after he recalled his spirit consciousness from the consciousness of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak, Su Zimo was still in shock and could not recover for a period of time.
That was the power of an Essence Spirit secret skill!
Although the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s head was completely fine without any wounds, his Essence Spirit was shattered completely by the Rulai Dharmic Seal!
Of course, this was not Su Zimo’s power.
If the tremendous amount of pure Essence Spirit power had not surged in, he would have been the one dead on the ground at this moment!
Su Zimo took a deep breath and tried his best to compose himself. He surveyed his surroundings and asked in a probing manner, “Senior?”
“Collect this demon’s storage bag and get out of this place first!”
The voice echoed in Su Zimo’s mind once again, it was calm with a hint of antiquity.
Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat.
He was not clear of danger yet.
The commotion here was great. The high-level fiend demons they left behind earlier must have already noticed and were most likely on their way over.
The longer he lingered here, the more danger he would be in!
Su Zimo’s Essence Spirit had just released the Rulai Dharmic Seal and his body received a strong blow from the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak. As such, his bones and tendons were aching terribly.
Right now, his Essence Spirit and physical body were at their weakest.
A single high-level fiend demon could kill him right now, let alone the fact that more than ten were coming!
Su Zimo staggered and ran to the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak. He retrieved the latter’s storage bag and put it away.
This was the storage bag of an Overlord and there was bound to be a lot of good stuff within!
Su Zimo pondered for a moment and cut off a leg from the goat and stashed it into the storage bag. He scanned his surroundings and fled in a direction.
As he sprinted, Su Zimo asked softly, “Senior, are you still there?”
“Yes.”
“Where?”
“In your body.”
Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat and he almost stumbled over.
This time round, the person did not send a voice transmission through spirit consciousness. Su Zimo could clearly hear that the voice came from within his body!
To be precise, it was his left wrist.
A spark jolted in Su Zimo’s mind and he had a hunch.
Right then, the voice suddenly sounded, “Change your direction. There are two high-level fiend demons a hundred kilometers in front of you!”
Su Zimo paused hurriedly.
“To the left!”
The voice reminded him again.
Without hesitation, Su Zimo sprinted to the left.
However, his Essence Spirit and physical body were both extremely weak and his movement technique was sluggish.
All of a sudden!
A tremendous spirit consciousness emanated from his left wrist and enveloped his physical body. It rode with the wind at an extremely fast speed and vanished from the spot before long!
The wind howled.
Su Zimo relaxed his body and saw the shadows of trees fleeting by him rapidly.
The spirit consciousness maneuvered him with twists and turns, avoiding countless dangers in the interim before finally settling down around a secluded cave.
Su Zimo understood what he needed to do and headed in.
The moment he entered the cave, Su Zimo looked at his left wrist delightedly. He suppressed his overwhelming emotions and asked softly, “Senior Extreme Fire, is that you?”
The moment he said that, a scarlet glow burst forth from the Mingw.a.n.g Prayer Beads Su Zimo wore on his left wrist and stopped in midair.
The scarlet glow revealed its true appearance. It was the size of a thumb and seemed like it was burning with fire. Its aura was powerful as it looked at Su Zimo with a smile and a bright gaze.
This Essence Spirit was from Dao Lord Extreme Fire whom Su Zimo encountered more than a hundred years ago in the cold lake within Cang Lang Mountain Range!
Back then, Dao Lord Extreme Fire was inflicted with toxic poison and was on the verge of death. He was trapped motionlessly beneath the cold lake and endured bitterly for 5,000 years!
Eventually, he met Su Zimo and left behind some belongings and messages for Su Zimo. With that, he let go of his final attachments in life and departed in a carefree manner.
It could be said that a large part of Su Zimo’s later accomplishments had to do with the legacy left behind for him by Dao Lord Extreme Fire!
Everything else aside, Night Spirit was left behind for Su Zimo by Dao Lord Extreme Fire.
Later on, Dao Lord Extreme Fire’s Essence Spirit no longer had any lifeforce after due to the toxic poison.
The single Mingw.a.n.g Prayer Bead on Su Zimo’s hand turned warm. Su Zimo made a test attempt and the Essence Spirit of Dao Lord Extreme Fire transformed into a streak of light, absorbed by the Mingw.a.n.g Prayer Bead.
Later on, there had been no activity.
Although Su Zimo had cultivated to the Nascent Soul realm, he was still unable to refine the Mingw.a.n.g Prayer Beads properly. His spirit consciousness could not probe within and he naturally did not know about what was going on within.
To think that Dao Lord Extreme Fire was reborn and saved him once again at this critical juncture!
