Chapter 227: I Will Never Run Again

Xue Ritian flew rapidly through the sky of Southern Border as blood flowed from his wounds. The blood did not drip from him but became small jade pellets that Xue Ritian stored. Each drop of his blood contained thousands of blood path dao imprints. They were the basis of his strength.

His gaze was eerie as he constantly watched his back. The sky where he had flown from was shattered at a point, heaven Qi flowed from the Primordial Qi Wall that separated the two heavens from the five regions.

Xue Ritian did not dare slow down.

His body was battered and bruised. Burn marks from being burnt by the Profound Yin Cold Flame of the Primordial Dragon Race deformed his entire body. From time to time, his body would shake as reincarnation path dao imprints refined his body.

If anyone saw him, they wouldn't know that he was a powerhouse at the second tier of Venerable realm. He could destroy realms and worlds with a single wave of his hand and wherever he went, heads would bow and knees would bend.

Even so, he had surely met his match.

"Long Aotian, you bastard! I will never forget this, in this lifetime or the next!" Xue Ritian cussed as he flew. Even so, he still checked his back to see if his enemy had still come back.

When they fought, he had used a blood path technique to seal Long Aotian and escaped with his life. Xue Ritian was the strongest human in this era but compared to Long Aotian of the Primordial Dragon Race, the second strongest Regal Bloodline, he was weak.

The sky thundered and strong ice Qi poured from the heavens. The ground below froze over as ice fell like hail.

"Roaarrr!"

Xue Ritian's heart shook. Long Aotian had escaped!

Lightning Essence circulated through his body as his speed tripled. When he appeared above a certain mountain with a steep cliff, he severed his aperture and dropped a fragment of it by the precipice.

After creating a formation, Xue Ritian flew away again.

As he flew, Xue Ritian grew sad: "It's funny. This was how I also ran from the Sky realm experts of Central Continent when I went to Western Plains. I swear, if I ever get to live another lifetime, I will never run away from anyone"

Xue Ritian checked his back and could see Long Aotian's enormous dragon head peering out of Primordial White Heaven.

He moved swiftly and stored the two remaining fragments of his aperture on certain mountains. He knew he would most likely die this day.

Xue Ritian turned to face Long Aotian who was already closing in on him. After drawing a deep breath, he summoned all the battle intent he could muster and prepared for his last fight.

…..

"What is this place?" Houyan Meili asked Lu Zheng, rousing him from his thoughts. Zuo Xiuzhen was also curious to know Lu Zheng's response.

"Oh" Lu Zheng's voice was slightly coarse.

"This is a realm I gained from an inheritance"

Lu Zheng did not even blink as he lied with a straight face.

"An inheritance?" Zuo Xiuzhen was surprised. No wonder Lu Zheng was so strong. The martial practitioner that left this realm must have had unbelievable strength.

"Those plants were needle lightning grass. That is a rank ten cultivation material!" Houyan Meili identified the needle lightning grass.

"Rank ten!?" Even Immortal Star was moved. Rank ten was the equivalent of the Eternal realm. That was the beginning of true strength for any martial practitioner.

No matter how large the force, every Eternal realm martial practitioner was essential to them. This was the realm that martial practitioners would suddenly experience a great leap in battle strength.

Houyan Meili's image of Lu Zheng changed. Not only was he strong, he was also extremely rich.

The area where the needle lightning grass covered was many hundreds of metres wide and it was even longer. Yet, compared to all of the space in the realm, it was very insignificant.

Houyan Meili and Zuo Xiuzhen were very knowledgeable. They knew many cultivation materials but they couldn't even identify all of the cultivation materials in this realm.

Immortal Star was stunned by their reactions.

If even the cold Houyan Meili lost her cool by the sight, it meant that the level of the worth of this realm was beyond mere comprehension.

Lu Zheng only shook his head. This was only a portion of a Venerable's wealth.

Even if it was only a small portion of it, it was enough to send most forces into the deepest abyss of despair.

~But… the scale of these resources has changed from how I left them. The rate of time here is eighteen times faster than the time flow in the main world. For my aperture, the one thousand years I spent dead is eighteen millennia. It is only natural for the resource points to reach this size~

"If I remember, there are also Thunderblitz Trees here" Lu Zheng thought as he moved in a specific direction. The others did not know much about this place, they followed him as he moved.
