IMT Chapter 81: Heaven Wants To Take Him Away, Did I Agree To That?!
🕑 Added 2025-08-19 09:35:34 +0000 UTCAbove the sea, a white-haired woman in a white dress stood on the azure sea surface.
Her embroidered shoes touched the water, creating ripples that spread outward in circles.
This deep sea was originally boundless, but it reflected the woman's figure.
Within hundreds of miles of the woman, whether ordinary fish or ferocious deep-sea beasts, all trembled in fear.
It seemed that if the woman merely lifted her small foot in its cloud-patterned embroidered shoe and lightly stepped on the sea surface, their souls would be scattered to the winds.
One mile away from the white-dressed woman, a female Daoist in robes was walking step by step toward the white-haired woman.
The female Daoist was accompanied by her female disciple, who was looking at the white-haired woman on the sea surface with lingering fear, cold sweat involuntarily breaking out on her forehead.
That silent dragon's might was like a great mountain, almost making Li Sisi unable to breathe.
When Fuchen was less than ten meters from the white-haired woman, Li Sisi gently tugged at her master's sleeve and looked at her master with frightened eyes.
Fuchen gently patted her disciple's hand and continued walking forward.
Finally, Li Sisi also gathered her courage and followed her master forward.
Fuchen walked to the white-haired woman's side and looked at her profile.
The white-haired woman lowered her delicate head. Though the woman's eyes were entirely golden yellow, they somehow felt pitch black.
She tightly grasped something unknown in her hand, pressing it against her chest, motionless like a statue on the sea.
"He's gone," the white-haired woman finally spoke, her voice hoarse, no one knew how long she had been crying.
"This poor Daoist knows," Fuchen nodded. "I'm sorry, I cannot intervene."
"I know. Behind you stands the Tianxuan Sect, which avoids worldly conflicts. As an elder of Tianxuan Sect, you cannot act."
Bai Ruxue slowly opened her palm.
It was a silver-white snake scale.
The only thing he had left behind.
"So you’re not acting is reasonable, and I have no grounds to demand Elder Fuchen's intervention. But I suddenly thought of something I'd like to ask Elder Fuchen."
Bai Ruxue slowly raised her delicate head, turned around, and looked directly into Fuchen's eyes.
"Elder Fuchen, in the ancient text called 'Return to the Sea' that I saw, is the description of Dragon Thunder Liquid true?"
Bai Ruxue tightly clenched her small hands, "Can Dragon Thunder Liquid really extend life?"
As soon as Bai Ruxue finished speaking, Li Sisi glanced at her master.
"It cannot," Fuchen calmly shook her head.
"The function of Dragon Thunder Liquid is that after cultivators consume it, it can improve spiritual veins and enhance aptitude. It fundamentally cannot directly extend life."
"What about ordinary people consuming it?"
"After ordinary people consume it, they can forcibly form a type of acquired spiritual vein, allowing ordinary people to cultivate. But even so, these acquired spiritual veins are extremely fragile. Unless one's talent is truly outstanding, it's difficult to build foundation, and it must be consumed before age ten to be effective."
Bai Ruxue lowered her head and looked at the snake scale in her hand.
Even though she had already guessed the truth, when her speculation was confirmed, Bai Ruxue's heart felt like it was falling into a bottomless abyss.
"Return to the Sea. Return to the sea."
Bai Ruxue's hair was gently lifted by the sea breeze.
"I had never seen this book before, but on that day, when Xiao Mo took out the River Journey Map for me and told me to go river walking, I happened to see it.
If I'm not mistaken, this book was written by Xiao Mo, wasn't it?"
Fuchen still nodded, "Yes, at that time Xiao Mo had the Jiangnan Prefecture Governor send me a package with a letter and a book. This book was written by Xiao Mo.
He knew long ago that you were searching the Tianxuan Sect's library for ways to extend his life but he understood even more clearly that everything you did was futile.
Xiao Mo wanted to do one last thing for you before he passed away.
So he had me place this book where you could easily discover it."
"As I thought," Bai Ruxue lowered her delicate head. "Everything he did was always for me."
"Miss Bai," Li Sisi at the side finally couldn't help but speak up.
"Miss Bai, please leave quickly. Those cultivators have already locked onto Miss Bai's location and are rushing over now. I believe Mr. Xiao wouldn't want Miss Bai to get into trouble either, and would want Miss Bai to live well."
"They're coming?" Bai Ruxue looked toward the distance. "They're finally coming?"
"Miss Bai," Li Sisi stepped forward, wanting to say more, but was stopped by her master.
"Daoist Fuchen, you should go. It's not appropriate for you to be here," Bai Ruxue said slowly, her tone sounding as if her heart had died.
Fuchen frowned, glanced at Bai Ruxue, then finally turned around and walked toward the distance, "Sisi, let's leave for now. Don't disturb Miss Bai."
Li Sisi looked at Bai Ruxue with concern, wanting to say more, but seeing those lifeless golden vertical pupils, she could only close her mouth and follow her master away with frequent backward glances.
Less than half a cup of tea's time after Fuchen and her disciple left, over a hundred cultivators flew over from the sky.
Bai Ruxue stepped forward with her long legs beneath her dress. She lowered her head, swept back the long hair covering her neck, and while walking, tied the silver-white scale around her neck, finally placing the scale within her high, undulating collar.
When everyone saw Bai Ruxue standing on the sea surface, they felt somewhat puzzled.
They had originally thought that Bai Ruxue was too severely injured and had to stop to rest but looking at her like this, she seemed to be waiting for their group.
"Evil beast! You have nowhere to escape!" the Sect Master of Azure Sun Sect shouted at Bai Ruxue.
Over a hundred cultivators had surrounded Bai Ruxue from all directions.
Bai Ruxue raised her head and swept her gaze over everyone.
For some reason, everyone felt their hair stand on end when she stared at them.
Moreover, the way she had just looked at them showed no panic whatsoever, but was more like the King of Hell calling names, remembering each of these people one by one, not wanting to let any escape.
"Everyone's here," Bai Ruxue said, but it didn't seem like she was speaking to them, more like talking to herself.
"Don't waste words with her! Kill her directly!" the Sect Master of Flower Moon Sect's voice echoed out as she personally charged toward Bai Ruxue.
Actually, the Sect Master of Flower Moon Sect already felt something was wrong.
This white dragon's aura seemed different from before.
When she looked at her with that glance, the Sect Master of Flower Moon Sect had already begun thinking of retreating.
But the Sect Master of Flower Moon Sect understood even more clearly that this white dragon must die here, or she would become a great threat in the future!
The other cultivators naturally understood this point as well.
Killing her was not just about opportunities, but also about their own group's survival!
Not to mention she had just passed through tribulation, her body hadn't recovered to its peak, and she was severely injured, so surely,
"Roar!"
Just as this thought was half-formed in everyone's minds, a white shadow flashed before their eyes.
When they came to their senses, the woman had already transformed into her original form and caught someone.
Bai Ruxue gripped this man tightly in her claws, those golden vertical pupils looking at him as if he were an ant.
This man was the cultivator who had struck Xiao Mo with an axe.
The man tried to struggle, but couldn't break free from Bai Ruxue's dragon claws at all.
Bai Ruxue squeezed hard, and the man burst into blood mist. She then locked his soul in an ice pillar.
"How is this possible?" the Sect Master of Blazing Sun Sect was shocked.
This man named Ding Ao was a Nascent Soul realm cultivator.
Although this white flood dragon had successfully passed tribulation and reached the Jade Simplicity realm, her injuries from tribulation hadn't healed yet, and she had even taken his full-force attack head-on, suffering severe wounds.
Under the influence of these injuries, she should only have Nascent Soul strength.
How could she casually crush Ding Ao to death?
"Wait, her injuries," the Sect Master of Blazing Sun Sect seemed to notice something and looked toward the white flood dragon's back.
Only then did he notice that the injuries on this silver flood dragon's back had healed, and new flesh and scales had grown out!
Besides this, all the other places on her body that had suffered from tribulation had completely regenerated.
"What kind of opportunity did this white flood dragon obtain?!" the Sect Master of Blazing Sun Sect's heart trembled.
He had hunted quite a few flood dragons before.
Most python snakes after passing tribulation would only be at the peak of Nascent Soul realm.
Flood dragons that entered Jade Simplicity realm after tribulation weren't unheard of, just extremely rare. But they were usually weak because their injuries from just passing tribulation hadn't recovered yet.
But this white flood dragon was different.
In such a short time, all the injuries on her body had healed.
It was simply too outrageous!
He even had a feeling that this white flood dragon might truly be able to pass tribulation and transform into a true dragon in the future!
"Roar!"
After killing Ding Ao, Bai Ruxue swept toward the other cultivators.
Every time Bai Ruxue flew through the air, cultivators would burst into blood mist, like red fireworks blooming in the sky.
However, all these cultivators' souls were locked by Bai Ruxue in ice pillars.
"Don't hold back anymore! Kill her quickly!" the Sect Master of Azure Sun Sect shouted.
Some sect masters and elders would think of preserving their own strength, letting others go first.
This way they could bear minimal risk and loss.
It also guarded against fighting over spoils after this white flood dragon died, giving themselves a better chance of winning.
If they were just dealing with an ordinary flood dragon that had just passed tribulation, this would be fine. but this flood dragon was so different, her dragon's might extremely terrifying.
If everyone held back, they'd all die here!
After hearing this, the other cultivators naturally understood. They brought out their life-bound magical artifacts and bombarded Bai Ruxue, but Nascent Soul realm and below cultivators were like thin paper before Bai Ruxue.
Even when they brought out their life-bound magical artifacts, they couldn't last two rounds.
"Evil beast, seeking death!" the Sect Master of Azure Sun Sect threw out a fish basket.
This fish basket wasn't for catching fish, but for catching dragons.
The Dragon-Catching Basket flew above Bai Ruxue, growing larger and larger, finally becoming like a great mountain, covering Bai Ruxue.
Then the basket mouth contracted! Trapping Bai Ruxue with no escape!
But Bai Ruxue rampaged inside the Dragon-Catching Basket, making the Sect Master of Azure Sun Sect break out in hot sweat, feeling like he was about to lose control of the Dragon-Catching Basket.
"Fellow Daoists, please help me refine her to death!"
The Sect Master of Azure Sun Sect called for help from several other Jade Simplicity realm cultivators.
"I'll help you!"
"Me too!"
Having a chance to kill this flood dragon, they naturally wouldn't let it pass.
Ten Jade Simplicity realm sect masters flew to Bai Ruxue's side, pointed their sword fingers at the Dragon-Catching Basket, and ten beams of spiritual power shone on the Dragon-Catching Basket simultaneously, trying to refine this white flood dragon to death in the shortest time.
But in the next moment, the white flood dragon's aura surged, and she used all her strength to breathe out dragon breath, piercing a large hole in the Dragon-Catching Basket.
Rippling spiritual power accompanied by dragon's might scattered, and the ten Jade Simplicity realm sect masters suffered spiritual backlash and flew backward simultaneously!
"Not good!"
They were truly in despair now.
After a hundred rounds, Bai Ruxue had killed through four Jade Simplicity realm cultivators.
Bai Ruxue fought more fiercely as the battle continued, nearly mad.
Moreover, her physique was terrifyingly powerful.
Though they had never seen a true dragon, they felt this must be about the same.
"Retreat!"
After another hundred rounds, less than thirty remained of the hundred-plus cultivators.
They knew the situation was hopeless and could only flee but how could Bai Ruxue let them leave alive?
Bai Ruxue circled in the air, and thousands of ice cones rained down on them.
Seawater poured backward, forming prison water cells that trapped them!
For the next incense stick's time, Bai Ruxue conducted one-sided slaughter.
After one incense stick, of the hundred-plus cultivators, not one survived. All their souls were trapped in ice pillars.
Bai Ruxue didn't leave immediately.
She roared angrily at the heavens and dark clouds instantly gathered in the sky.
In moments, layers of heavy dark clouds pressed down, gradually forming the shape of an altar.
At the same time, seawater poured upward like a brush, stroke by stroke in the air, finally forming a magic array.
Finally, Bai Ruxue moved with her intent, controlling the ice pillars, and placed all these cultivators' souls on the altar.
"Master," Li Sisi, standing in the distance, looked toward the battlefield and frowned. "What is Miss Bai doing?"
"Sigh," Fuchen sighed and shook her head. "Xiao Mo's soul scattered to the winds. She's using the dragon clan's inherited Soul-Gathering Array, trying to condense Xiao Mo's soul, and the sacrifices are these cultivators' souls."
As Fuchen finished speaking, Bai Ruxue let out a dragon roar, and all the cultivators' souls were shattered, turning into points of light that entered the altar array.
The array activated, and a beam of light shot up, breaking through the heavy clouds.
Tiny points of light like fireflies continuously gathered in the sky, finally forming a light orb.
"Xiao Mo."
Sensing the familiar soul, Bai Ruxue knew she had succeeded.
"Rumble!"
But at this moment, thunder roared in the sky.
A bolt of lightning struck toward Xiao Mo's soul orb.
Bai Ruxue rushed forward, forcibly blocking this tribulation.
The second bolt, the third bolt!
Several tribulation bolts struck toward Xiao Mo's soul, but Bai Ruxue held it tightly in her embrace, letting the tribulation strike her own body.
Fuchen stepped forward, arriving beneath the altar, looking up at the thirty-zhang-long white flood dragon, "Ruxue, stop! Your dragon clan's Soul-Gathering Array harms the natural order. Soul scattered to the winds means soul scattered to the winds. What you're doing goes against heaven, and the Heavenly Dao won't permit it!"
"The Heavenly Dao? So what?"
Bai Ruxue looked up at the heavens. Thunder gathered again, but the woman charged straight toward the sky that was brewing thunder!
"Heaven wants to take him away, did I agree to that?!"
