This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder Chapter 34

Tianyi awakened from his unconscious state as his long and delicate eyelashes fluttered. Upon seeing the unfamiliar ceiling, all hints of drowsiness instantly disappeared as Tianyi quickly planted his two feet on the ground and stared warily at his surroundings.

He was in a dilapidated hall, the walls and pillars were cracked but even so, it could not hide the grand magnificence of its history.

Tianyi's mind instantly recalled the dream-like experience he had and instantly connected the dots. Although the memory was a bit blurry and unclear, Tianyi still remembered the important parts.

As for waking up alone, Tianyi wasn't surprised. He had already expected such a thing when he entered the door and all the people in his surrounding disappeared.

“This is a hall in the Immortal Court?”

Tianyi wandered the hall a bit, but there were no hints of what hall it was nor were there any sort of treasures or anything of value left behind.

The spiritual qi, however, was incredibly dense. Far more dense than even the Jade Lotus Clear Pond that Mengfei had created for Tianyi.

But so what?

Spiritual qi wasn't anything rare and although the rate of progress cultivating here was more than ten times faster anywhere else, for Tianyi who couldn't cultivate at the moment, it was useless. Even if he could cultivate here, Tianyi would still rather look for treasures.

After checking that he could still access the items inside of his spatial bag, Tianyi released a sigh of relief as he stepped out of the hall. Although Tianyi really wanted to fly around instead of walking. Before making sure of the safety of the ruins of the Immortal Court, it was better to take things slow instead of flying grandly in the air.

The outside was even worse than the inside of the hall that Tianyi walked out of. Tianyi didn't know what the white jade tiles the road were made out of, but the ground was filled with holes and cracks.

Some of the cracks were filled with white clouds while others directly had a hole where Tianyi could see the scenery below it.

Tianyi unsheathed his sword and stabbed the ground with it, but as expected only a few sparks resulted from the clash of sword and ground.

Morbidly curious as to what was below the ground of the Immortal Court, Tianyi first observed the hole filled with white clouds.

But the cloud was too dense for Tianyi to make out anything so he kicked a small piece of rubble into the cloud. As Tianyi expected, once the rubble entered the cloud there was no sound of it hitting anything.

“So there's nothing under the cloud, I better be careful." Saying so Tianyi looked at a large hole that allowed Tianyi to see the land below the Immortal Court.

It was a giant landmass with no end in sight, Tianyi had a feeling that it was even bigger than the Heaven Continent by several fold. There were even large bodies of water, but Tianyi couldn't estimate the size.

But what surprised Tianyi the most was that he could see the “edge” that connected the end of land and the sky.

“The Immortal Court exists in the sky of a planet?”

Just as Tianyi was about to retract his sight, his eyes suddenly glued onto a certain spot. It was a place he was very familiar with, although it looked a little different with different structures upon it. Tianyi could never mistake the Buzhou Mountain Range where the Buzhou Immortal Sect was based at.

But it wasn't exactly the same, there was a giant pillar of light that seemed to connect the Earth and Heavens, the ground to the Immortal Court. Although Tianyi couldn't see it clearly as the complete picture was obscured by the small size of the hole. He would have to descend into the hole to see if it truly connected the Immortal Court.

Tianyi recalled that the base of the pillar was situated at the forbidden ground of the Buzhou Immortal Sect, Broken Heaven Valley. Although Tianyi flew into the air several times and didn't see such a pillar originating from there, there numerous formations that could hide such a thing.

Although he was curious if his sect did contain such a pillar, the more pressing question was why a fragment of the Immortal Court would have such a landmass.

Tianyi's thoughts ran at a million miles an hour.

“Legends have it that the Huang Realm was created from a fragment of the Immortal Court, so the Buzhou Mountain Range here should be a fake. Or more like a remnant scenery created from the fragment?”

Tianyi shook his head, there were not enough clues and he didn't have the necessary knowledge.

Tianyi looked up at the road and saw endless holes in the road.

“Well I should be fine if I lower my flying level.”

Saying so Tianyi unsheathed his sword once more and used a spell to make it fly, only to see the sword clank lifelessly on the ground.

Tianyi's face instantly darkened, without being able to fly the danger of the holes increased immensely.

Tianyi sighed and picked up the sword from the ground. So what if he couldn't fly? He would just have to be a little more careful.

If Tianyi didn't develop even this little bit of courage, he can lie on the ground and wait for all of his enemies to kill him.

The Immortal Court was in shambles, but despite it being so desolate there was a hidden beauty in such a vestigial structure. But the silence made such a beautiful scenery incredibly eerie.

A pleasant medicinal aroma wafted into Tianyi's nose. Just by smelling it, Tianyi felt the aches in his body lessening greatly. Even his true qi of chaos became calm and malleable.

“Could this be the legendary pill hall of the Immortal Court, where the legendary Eight-way Trigrams Crucible and Samadhi True Fire resides?” Tianyi's eyes began to glisten. “Maybe there is a pill that can help me. Even if I don't recognize it, my mother or the Elders surely will be able to.”

As Tianyi came closer to the pill hall the medicinal fragrance enveloped Tianyi like mist, making him feel comfortable all over. It was a pleasant feeling he hadn't experienced in years.

When Tianyi entered the Pill Hall, it was dilapidated as the hall he had awakened in. But Tianyi wasn't deterred as he searched the hall, but sadly there was nothing for Tianyi to take.

In the concocting room, there was a dent where the Eight-way Trigrams Crucible obviously used to exist. There was even a hint of melted metal where the Samadhi True Fire used to be kept as well, but now it was all gone.

“Seriously? There's nothing even left. I had thought that there would be something for me with how strong the pill fragrance was.” Tianyi sighed in regret as he spoke aloud, but he suddenly twisted around and stared.

He furrowed his brows, “Was it my imagination? I was sure I felt that I was being stared at by someone.”

However very soon, Tianyi's eyes brightened at a small round pill on the ground next to a few pieces of rubble.

It was perfectly spherical and had a low golden luster to it, different from the surrounding rubble, that was the color of the pristine walls or tiles.

Tianyi kept his vigilance as he neared the golden pill and kneeled down. He wrapped his hand around it and pulled and pulled and pulled and pulled.

Tianyi's face hardened as he discovered that he couldn't even roll the golden pill. It was small and round, yet a Core Formation Master like Tianyi who, despite his incomplete cultivation manual, was able to fight Nascent Soul Grandmasters was unable to even make the pill roll.

After several tries of physically moving it, Tianyi finally used both hands and pulled with all his might. His legs were in an “M” shape as he used his legs and his waist to try to pull the pill up.

After several more tries Tianyi gave up and stood up. But first Tianyi looked around to see if anyone saw his unseemly appearance trying to take the pill.

Tianyi sighed as he slapped his hand onto his forehead. Tianyi's eyes brightened as he felt the cool ring against his forehead.

“Right, why didn't you think of this. If I can't physically move it, I'll just put it in my spatial ring. After all this pill isn't an artifact or anything.” Tianyi who had an epiphany, knelt down once more and touched the pill.

But contrary to his expectations, the pill showed no signs of being stored into his spatial ring. Tianyi's facial expression froze like an ice sculpture.

Tianyi tried several more ideas but all of them were fruitless.

Tianyi felt his veins bulge.

“This pill is too strange, even the rubble would be able to be stored into my spatial ring yet the pill couldn't. Is this pill special or something?" Tianyi began to doubt whether it was a pill but an artifact instead.

If it was an immortal artifact, then he wouldn't be able to refine it since he was a far cry from a immortal. But there was no harm in trying, so Tianyi sent a strand of his true qi into the sphere in an attempt to refine it.

“Cough, cough”

Tianyi quickly covered his mouth with a handkerchief as he felt his blood rise up once more from his usage of his true qi of chaos.

But Tianyi wasn't worried, but rather excited as he felt some sort of reaction from the pill.

However even as Tianyi continued to try to refine it for over two hours but there was still no reaction, Tianyi decisively gave up.

Although the fake pill seemed to be special, Tianyi gave up on it. This was the ruins of the Immortal Court, there would be alot more fortuitous encounters for him to find.

The fake pill can just wait for its fated person.

Tianyi stood up and left, but as he left he turned back to look once more. Although he gave it up, there didn't mean he didn't have any regrets on not obtaining it.

He blinked when he saw the spotless ground around the fake pill. He recalled that a few drops of his blood should have spilled on the ground, but there weren't any traces of blood.

“Maybe I remembered wrongly, I mean it's not the first time I coughed blood. I could just be having deja vu.” Thinking so, Tianyi decisively left.

Although the Pill Hall could make him feel pleasant, it did not solve the root of the problem so it would be pointless to waste any more time there. Especially since it was empty.

Why is it so empty. Did the members of the Immortal Court take them away or was it someone who discovered it before the three hegemonic forces? With that thought Tianyi left the Pill Hall.

But as he moved through the hole filled road, Tianyi felt that something or someone was staring at him. But no matter what Tianyi did, he could discover no one.

His spiritual sense was as strong as a Nascent Soul Grandmaster, so unless they had a special method Tianyi should have been able to sense them.

As for a Unity Realm Venerable? Why would a Unity Realm Venerable be so bored as to spy on him without doing anything?

Attributing it to his imagination, Tianyi continued on his way.

The next structure Tianyi came across looked more complete and stable than the first hall and the Pill Hall Tianyi visited. Raising his awareness, Tianyi entered the hall and was instantly stunned.

The whole structure was a pagoda with nine levels but the inside aside front he stair and walkways was completely empty. Tianyi could see the ceiling when he walked into the center.

But that wasn't what stunned Tianyi.

It was the murals on the inside of the pagoda.

From a single glance Tianyi could already recognize the Jade Emperor on the mural, but he was fighting a Caucasian man with long graying hair and beard who wore obvious Greek clothing and wielded a lightning bolt in his hand.

“Why is Zeus fighting the Jade Emperor?”
