SEEKING THE TRUE PATH

Chapter 1: Medicine slave.

Somewhere in the void in unknown location.

Two figures clashed against each other in the pitch black darkness. Weapons clanging as they dwelled . One of the two, a blood-red armoured giant with a chilling aura that could shatter a gallaxy and freeze several suns, lifted a blood-red
saber and slashed at his opponent.

"Don't think you can survive my next attack old man."

He moved backwards and drilled the saber in the air

  "Demon emperor Drilling the Heavens!"

His opponent,a golden robbed man with a dragon mask on his face, exclaimed in surprise as a blood-red light begun drilling towards him with a speed that would put a flood dragon to shame.
*How did this demon saint learn the demon emperor's skill ?*

He quickly took a piece of cracked flat rock from his spatial ring and activated it with his Qi.
A glowing illusion of a tortoise shell formed around him a second before the attack of the demon saint reached him. The shell shook and cracks formed on its surface but it managed to withstand the attack.

The demon looked in surprise at the glowing shell.

    *Divine Xuanwu shield*
"Old man you are very heavily loaded. From where did you find that Heavenly ranked artifact?"

The golden robbed man took a deep breath and circulated his Qi as the strong attack had disrupted his Qi flow in the Qi veins.

"Old demon do you think it is that easy to come across the Divine Xuanwu shield? This artifact is made from a piece of shell broken from the back of the Black Desolate tortoise with the bloodline of the Divine Xuanwu."

The demon looked at the man with a cautious expression.

"Old demon give up the idea of robbing me my back up is sixty breaths away"
"That's just enough for me"

The blood-red armoured giant spread out his palm and a black bell with the inscriptions of demons slaughtering gods and destroying gallaxys appeared on his palm.

"Purgatory Nightmare Land!"
A loud chime which made the space to tear resounded. The golden robbed man reached for his spatial ring but it was too late. This was a demon king ranked soul attack that immersed a person into a nightmare full of tortures from demons that lead to death (it consumed the soul)

The demon giant grinned happily as blood begun running down from the golden robbed man's mouth .

"This saint realm cultivator was very difficult to take down. At least half the spiritual power I have is gone, but it is not in vain"

He took  the spatial ring from the man's finger and did away with the soul imprint and then he inspected the contents of the ring. Several spiritual treasures, high ranked artifacts and then a strange object which shone with a blue lustre.

"What's this thing that this human was protecting with his life?"

Suddenly the ball-like object begun trembling and the blue light it was initially emitting increased in volume.
*This might be a true Heavenly ranked artifact*

A red light shone in the demon's eye but a second later he coughed out blood and his soul was in pain as if it had been cut into two.

  "This is strange,so strange . Even my Eye of Demonic Inquisition could not see through it"

The demon was very surprised. His Eye of Demonic Inquisition could see through even a few weakened Astral ranked artifacts but this 'blue-ball' was strange. So strange. Then the object begun spinning and he was forced to let go of it,less he loose his hand to the maddening spinning speed. His senses warned him of impending danger but even with his demon saint rank speed that could qualify flood dragons ,he could not dodge the blue ball as it hit him on the left eye and burrowed inside his eye socket. The ball was very hot that it melted his eyeball instantly. The demon roared in pain and agony as gore and blood dripped from his left eye. Suddenly the ball-like object emitted a red light and then the demon exploded into a red mist and black smoke. The blue ball-like object remained suspended on the air. It hummed softly as if it was a teacher complaining about unsatisfactory student.

Suddenly the ball-like object froze midair as if it had sensed something unusual. After a second,it hummed and shone vibrantly and then a white light emitted from it , cutting a portal in the space into where it disappeared.
