Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Chapter 427: 240, The Shenshu Celestial Officer has never “come back to life” – 2

Before, this little girl had witnessed the fall of Tianyuan Zi, but because she hadn’t brought back the soul of this True Immortal, she didn’t realize that such an event was indicative of the fall of a True Immortal. She merely thought it was the lingering power of Tianyuan Zi’s Divine Skills.

When Tan Shuchang heard the little girl asking about it now, he didn’t answer directly, but said, “Just now, two passing True Immortals got into a fight; it’s not something to worry about.”

He could guess what the little girl was thinking.

“So, the battle of True Immortals can cause such celestial changes? True Immortals are indeed incredible!” Since this involved the little girl’s blind spots in knowledge, Dongdong didn’t doubt it but expressed her amazement.

Moreover, moving hand and foot in such a way as to make heaven and earth resonate and manifest sanctity — this also matched what an undying little cultivator who hadn’t achieved immortality might imagine about such True Immortals.

Then, Dongdong took the initiative and started looking for trouble with the Immortal Clan.

...

Before, she had always been waiting for the Immortal Clan to come to her, thinking their encounters on the road had been coincidental.

But as the little girl began to actively search for the Immortal Clan, her purple-gold destiny also began to show this aspect of its power. Tan Shuchang, after a day of difficult searching, would only encounter two or three members of the Immortal Clan, while Dongdong, in just a short time, encountered three cultivators of the Immortal Clan who were traveling together.

These three cultivators were clearly out for leisure, because they took just one glance at the little girl and paid her no further attention.

However, moments later, they became elated.

“Are you that newly advanced rebellious demon fairy?” one of them asked, his expression not haughty, but rather, it seemed he was used to commanding others with ease, which made his tone sound quite harsh.

Dongdong didn’t reply but just swung her ghost sword at them with an expressionless face.

Having integrated parts of the souls of two True Immortals, the ghost sword was now genuinely a ghost sword, its viciousness far surpassed that of the Earth Ghost Immortals of Mang Mountain.

So, with the advantage of this ghost sword and the little girl’s Sword Dao realm, the three Immortal Clan cultivators were immediately put at a disadvantage as the battle began.

All three Immortal Clan cultivators were at the second stage of combining Dao proofs. By now, two of them had already maximized their potential to the extreme, their combat strengths soaring to nearly that of a True Immortal.

But nearly being a True Immortal is not the same as being a true True Immortal— their Dao had not completed its transformation, and their Mana was very limited.

True Immortals capable of fighting after maximizing their potential during the second proof combination stage typically lacked Immortal Techniques.

Such True Immortals are only distinctive from some third-stage cultivators in terms of their indestructible nature, some of whom possess magical treasures and Divine Skills that are superior to some True Immortals.

For example, Lotus Moon Fairy possesses Divine Skills and magical treasures that surpass some True Immortals.

The Sword Dao realm of the Ancient Sword Immortal Realm can harm True Immortals; bolstered by this realm, the ghost sword made the already vicious Sword Qi even more dreadful, as if it could choose its victims to devour.

Thus, quite quickly, all three Immortal Clan cultivators were wounded, especially the one who hadn’t maximized his potential, who was nearly cleaved in two by a slash of Sword Qi.

The extreme potential maximization at the second proof combination stage was not guaranteed, similar to when at their weakest point, it was full of uncertainty.

Because the purpose of this particular cultivation stage is for a second-proof cultivator to recognize the shortcomings of their Dao and continuously make amends.

However, in most cases, the cultivators in the Land of the Four Pillars have got it backward.

They regard the ability to maximize their potential as a means of deterrence against others and a method of ensuring their own survival.

At this time, several magical treasures were tossed out by the three Immortal Clan cultivators, blocking the vicious Sword Qi several times, but even so, they were in grave danger.

Because the two Immortal Clan cultivators who had maximized their potential were beginning to come down from that state.

This maximum potential increase was not without time constraints.

And undoubtedly, this spelled great dread for the trio from the Immortal Clan, their faces filled with disbelief. As members of the Immortal Clan, they couldn’t believe they were no match for a mere first-stage cultivator reeking of worldly aura when they joined forces!

However, they all showed no fear of death because the Immortal Clan is unlike other cultivation practitioners; other cultivators would indeed die, while the Immortal Clan only needed to gather enough yang energy to be resurrected and return at dawn.

“Do you think that because you can still have a true body, I can’t kill you?” At this moment, Dongdong suddenly said this, her little face expressionless.

Then, without waiting for the three Immortal Clan cultivators to respond, she swung her sword and declared, “Snake Desire Realm, descend!”

With certain permissions from a demon cultivator beginning to be released, a special force akin to that of a Dharma Realm shrouded these three people, and then they uncontrollably revealed their true forms.

Suddenly, they were three ghastly ghosts, enormous in stature, with fingers like hooks, their bodies wrapped in malicious energy, their eyes solidifying into malevolence and bursting forth with bursts of ghastly green light.

These three cultivators from the Immortal Clan were shocked beyond measure at such a transformation.

At the same time, they couldn’t help but begin to feel panic deep within.

Because if they were to die in their true form state, then they would indeed be truly dead.

Death, no creature is unafraid of it.

The Immortal Clan’s usual recklessness in the face of death is merely based on their knowledge that they wouldn’t really die just like that.

But these three Immortal Clan’s true forms ultimately did not perish, because a True Immortal had taken action.

“What a fierce little girl, it’s been many years since someone dared to kill those from the Immortal Clan, and to kill in such a manner…” A distant voice came, followed by the gradual descent of a towering figure.

This figure shone with a thousand lights, immensely tall, like a mountain, appearing to walk from the horizon, its presence shockingly earth-shattering.

“Greeting the Myriad Morning Ancestor!” @@novelbin@@

Upon seeing this figure, the three Immortal Clan cultivators were overjoyed and hurriedly paid their respects.

However, as the words of these three Immortal Clan cultivators fell, Dongdong’s figure instantly vanished. In its place, a strange and inscrutable presence began to gradually permeate the heavens and the earth.

One could see that within the forests and rivers, great amounts of blood suddenly surged forth.

Despite the clear sky, it was now raining a relentless blood rain; for a moment, even those three Immortal Clan cultivators palpably felt the world around them shrinking.

Because a sea of blood manifested around them, enveloping them all within it.

Waves of blood tumbled, surging violently.

“My dear friend Wan Chen, how hard I’ve searched for you…” A gentle male voice sounded at this moment, and instantly thunder rolled over the sea of blood.

The thunder was also blood-red, countless blood-red lightning interweaving, directly suppressing the true forms of the three Immortal Clan cultivators.

However, these three were merely collateral.

The real target of the blood-red thunder’s suppression was that massive figure, which was now uncontrollably shrinking until it differed little from an ordinary person.

This was being suppressed to the core.

“What in the world are you?” The Myriad Morning Ancestor of the Wanchen Immortal Clan revealed himself, appearing to be a very refined middle-aged man, except his eyes carried an extremely cold gaze.

“Have you forgotten me so soon, friend Wan Chen?”

As he spoke, Tan Shuchang revealed his true form, a pool of cyan blood.

However, the Ancestor of the Wanchen Immortal Clan quickly recognized Tan Shuchang.

“Are you the brother of Crimson Spring Child? The Immortal Path creature who forced Crimson Spring Child to abandon the Crimson Spring Path? Born again from pre-heaven essence, since emerging from the Immortal Court, you ought to be unparalleled.” As the Ancestor of the Wanchen Immortal Clan spoke, there was a hint of awe in his tone.

But it was undoubtedly the first time Tan Shuchang had heard of this.

“Do I also have this identity?” He was surprised but did not doubt it, as the several whims he had acted on before had all descended from the heavens as if something was resonating with him from afar.

Tan Shuchang had originally assumed it was the “resurrection” of the Shenxu Celestial.

“Since that’s the case, to thank friend Wan Chen for this revelation, I shall send you on your way a bit earlier!” Tan Shuchang said with a light laugh, and then he made his move.

The Ancestor of the Wanchen Immortal Clan was startled; he had said those words to gain more information, hardly expecting this fellow to strike directly!
