When a cultivator saw this old man, he immediately thought of his identity. Since he could suddenly appear here, he had to be the owner of the Inheritance! There were so many precious treasures in the Inheritance, so what was the identity of the owner?
He was most likely even higher than Immortal King! After all, there weren't that many treasures in Immortal mountain! The foundation of one's strength was often a symbol of one's strength.
The cultivator stepped forward respectfully, and just as he was about to speak, he said, "Senior, I..." As soon as the words left his mouth, the old man suddenly sucked in a breath of air. The cultivator's body rapidly shrivelled up, and in the blink of an eye, he had turned into a corpse. As for the old man, his body grew a bit larger.
The old man's face was full of dissatisfaction. "So much Immortal Medicine has been eaten by you, but you only provide a little bit of Qi and blood. What a waste. But if I eat these two, it should be enough for me to live again."
The old man looked at Henry and Aeson.
The other cultivators looked at the dried corpse with terror written all over their faces. It was only at this moment that they finally understood what was going on with the inheritance. So many herbs and immortal medicines had been consumed by them, and they had been used to kill each other. They had been absorbing other's energy to strengthen themselves. In the end, they were only going to become other people's tonics! Henry had already thought of this a while ago. At this moment, he was wearing a mask, and no expression could be seen on his face.
Aeson was calm. He had also already thought of it, but he was not afraid. This was the confidence brought by the strong strength. Moreover, he saw the origin of the opportunity from this old man. This old man was the key to breaking through the last level.
The old man waved his hand, and a woman flew toward the old man uncontrollably. The woman knew what kind of ending she was going to face. She begged for mercy loudly. Previously, her temperament was excellent and her appearance was also beautiful. But now, when she begged for mercy and cried, no one dared to help her. As the woman cried, her body shriveled up. Her originally beautiful face became horrible. The old man's body swelled up a little. He absorbed these people to restore his body.
"Run!"
It was hard to say who screamed, but nearly one hundred cultivators didn't hesitate at all as they fled in all directions. However, how could someone of their level escape from this man? The area was sealed up by an invisible barrier, and there was no way to retreat.
Behind Henry, an Immortal's Sword appeared. He was going to take action. He wouldn't wait for the old man to suck all of them up before the decisive battle. Now, the old man was obviously in a poor state. At this time, it was the best time to kill him.
Henry stepped forward with the Immortal Sword in his hand. The Primordial Qi rolled over and condensed into the Immortal Sword to stab the old man.
Just as the Immortal Sword in Henry's hand began to exert its power, Aeson's figure suddenly appeared in front of Henry. Aeson's current frosty Qi was able to block the Primordial Qi unleashed by Henry. In other words, Aeson's current aura was a whole realm higher than Henry's. Otherwise, Aeson's current frosty Qi could not be compared to the Primordial Qi at all.
Henry obviously did not expect Aeson to stop him. After all, Aeson was also one of the meals of this old man.
"Haha! Interesting!"
The old man made a strange laugh. He waved his arm again, and a gust of wind swept over, dragging the surrounding cultivators toward him.
"You want to stop me?"
Henry pointed to the ground with his sword.
"I'll have an opportunity only if he finishes eating."
Aeson replied. He was the only one who could understand the so-called opportunity. "I'm here, and you're just a doppelganger, so you can't go through me."
"And then?"
Primordial Qi gathered on Henry's sword tip.
