Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 517 - 489: Earth Immortal Takes Action, Divine Incantation Finally Revealed!
Moreover.
"Looking at this momentum, Guang Yuan is about to perform a magical ritual to aid his wife in becoming an Earth Immortal in one fell swoop?!"
The voice of One Yuan Ancestor resonated low, tinged with shock as he noticed the endless growth of Ao Le’s cultivation, which left him somewhat startled.
Earth Immortal Dao Fruit.
He reminisced about the years he spent cultivating arduously, monopolizing the fortune within the Jiuzhen Domain, overcoming countless hardships and dangers before barely achieving the status of Earth Immortal and enjoying the prestigious position today.
Yet this Ao Le.
In just nine days, he could achieve the same, standing on equal footing with him?!
And that’s not all.
What’s even more critical is—
"Who exactly is Guang Yuan, that an Earth Immortal can be swiftly created? From now on within Ancient Shang, wouldn’t the world belong to this child?"
This thought crossed his mind.
One Yuan Ancestor looked downward, his mana fluctuating as he recalled that the ’Nine True Jian’ was still suppressed by Lu Qingfeng beneath the Blood Sea, causing his mana to surge even more tumultuously.
Golden Light Ancestor Master stood by his side.
Moved by Lu Qingfeng’s deep affection and perseverance through countless tribulations to help his wife break through, the influence of such a grand method was indeed too significant. Though touched personally, the emergence of a Dragon Clan’s Earth Immortal concerns the life and death of Heavenly Court and Jiuzhen Immortal Sword Sect.
"The three Dragon Ancestors have recently acquired the ’Dragon Transformation Pond’ and may break through to the Fourth Realm at any moment, or even foresee the Heavenly Immortal Realm with the aid of a Spiritual Treasure."
"Now with the rise of Guang Yuan, creating an Earth Immortal seems effortless."
"Ancient Shang—"
The chance of Earth Immortal, after merging with the Chunshen Realm, seemingly destined for Ao Le.
Something no one could have predicted.
Golden Light Ancestor Master let out a long sigh, indeed many changes were converging at once. One careless move might lead to an irrecoverable disaster.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
The dragon chants from below sounded more resounding, reverberating across the heavens.
The Combat Heavenly King was the first to make a decision, "Ao Le must not be allowed to achieve Earth Immortality."
With those words,
He flipped his palm, revealing a Small Banner painted with Black and White Impermanence, turned to One Yuan Ancestor Master and Golden Light Ancestor Master and said, "This is the ’Impermanence Banner.’ Just by shaking it and chanting that person’s name, Black and White Impermanence will instantly lock the soul tightly, making it extremely difficult to guard against. Once I capture Guang Yuan, you two Fellow Daoists must act together swiftly to strike Ao Le down to the mortal realm!"
One Yuan Ancestor and Golden Light Ancestor Master exchanged a glance.
Nodding together—
"Agreed!"
The Combat Heavenly King’s eyes immediately turned icy as he brandished the ’Impermanence Banner,’ and amidst the flickering black and white light, there appeared a smiling White Impermanence, tall and thin, with a pale face and a long tongue, wearing an official hat that read "Prosperity at First Sight." Alongside was a fierce-looking Black Impermanence, broad and stout, with a dark face, his official hat reading "Peace Throughout the World." They leaped out to the scene.
These two divine beings, wielding shackles and handcuffs, weren’t the originals from the underworld, but had acquired a hint of divine essence.
The Great Method crafted, adding much mystery.
"Black and White Impermanence!"
"Capture Guang Yuan swiftly!"
Combat Heavenly King, with the dignity of a Heavenly Emperor, commanded loudly.
"At your command, my lord!"
Black and White Impermanence bowed and leaped out of sight, heading straight for the Blood Sea.
Within the Blood Sea,
Lu Qingfeng was seated in meditation, fully alert. The ’Buddhist Little Wheel Three Ride Marvelous Forms Transformation Birth Method’ was truly a heaven-shocking method, fraught with deep calamities. Apart from the tribulations faced by those within during its rotation, and the need to perform meritorious deeds thereafter to clear causality, as well as various great and small calamities afterward—
The moment of performing the ritual also brought great calamities.
Heavenly Tribulation was just one level.
With Lu Qingfeng’s cultivation and Divine Skills, even a True Immortal who dreaded the Nine layers Heavens Tribulation could easily break through.
But beyond Heavenly Tribulation, there were also human tribulations.
These were the true life-threatening calamities.
"Hmm?"
Just as the Three Great Earth Immortals in the sky, and the Combat Heavenly King took out the ’Impermanence Banner,’ Lu Qingfeng sensed something. Looking up through the Blood Sea, the earth, and the mist, he saw Black and White Impermanence leap down, chain and handcuffs in hand, ready to capture his soul.
Realizing the calamity had arrived,
He instantly furrowed his brows, anger apparent on his face, he shouted—
"Golden Saber!"
"Soul Slay!"
Visualizing a golden saber, it burst forth with a cold gleam and manifested in the void, striking down with a thunderous slash, hitting the void directly.
Hiss!
A soft sound followed, and it seemed as if black and white colors flourished in the void, two figures were sliced by the Golden Saber, turning into ashes and dissipating.
"Such keen perception!"
Above,
Combat Saint King’s face turned awfully grim.
The Impermanence Banner’s activation boasted invisibility and silence, making it usually impossible to defend against. Even True Immortals found it hard to guard – while it might not necessarily capture the soul, it could disturb the spirit, causing one to be momentarily dazed.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qingfeng, by practicing the Great Method and possessing the ’Seven Beasts Small Divine Number’, could foresee fortunes and misfortunes, and was prepared before the Impermanence Banner was activated.
With the ’Golden Saber Soul Slaying Method,’ he counteracted all ghosts and spirits across the world.
The Black and White Impermanence within the Impermanence Banner, mere brutes with a touch of divine flair, stood no chance once discovered by Lu Qingfeng.
"Are you two not going to act now? What are you waiting for?"
The first strike having failed,
Combat Heavenly King, face gloomy, called to One Yuan Ancestor and Golden Light Ancestor Master at his side.
Golden Light Ancestor Master sighed deeply, wielding thunder, as twelve Vajra Warriors leaped out, striking towards Lu Qingfeng.
One Yuan Ancestor remained silent, gathering energy into his Magic Sword, and aimed a seemingly ordinary yet tremblingly powerful slash towards the Blood Sea. The slash, subtle yet spine-chilling, was aimed directly at Ao Le.
"Courting death!"
Lu Qingfeng, having shattered the sneak attack with the Golden Saber Soul Slay, looked up towards the Three Immortals in the sky, his expression darkening to the extreme. While performing the ritual, each day was akin to a lifetime within the cycle. Any delay could render him unable to fully protect Ao Le, and once external demons invaded, it would inevitably lead to failure.
No room for the slightest carelessness.
Though the slaying of Black and White Impermanence was but a moment, within the rotating wheel it had already been dozens of days.
With this delay, the ninth lifetime might not be a concern, but the silent annihilation of Ao Le truly mattered. Furthermore, the One Yuan Ancestor Master now headed towards Ao Le, truly angering Lu Qingfeng.
His eyes brimmed with killing intent, and with a thought, his Blood Sea incarnation burst forth, wielding the Blood Centipede bamboo cane. Twelve iron-backed centipedes, like Divine Dragons, swiftly flew out. Arranged across the sky, they briefly held back the Twelve Vajra Warriors.
He also blocked the sword light slashed by the One Yuan Ancestor Master—
Boom!
The Dutian Formation trembled fiercely, struggling against the assault of the two great Earth Immortals, and was on the verge of shattering.
Lu Qingfeng did not hesitate.
"Bang!"
He struck his chest, spouting thirty-six bowls of heart blood.
Lu Qingfeng stood above the Magic Platform, his face deathly pale. He then waved his hand through the void, drawing out endless mysteries, feeling the force of his life continuously draining and his lifespan rapidly depleting.
In this lifetime.
Lu Qingfeng had cultivated the Supreme Level Red Dust Longevity Technique to the Third Major Success, extending his lifespan by one hundred twenty-nine thousand six hundred years. Along with achieving True Immortality and possessing the One Cycle of Life,
The sum of both was two hundred fifty-nine thousand two hundred years.
Now, he had just over two hundred thousand years remaining.
"Hundred thousand years!"
Lu Qingfeng boldly slashed away half his lifespan. A mysterious talisman formed from his heart blood in the void, swiftly streaking across it.
Yet, he did not stop.
"Fifty thousand years!"
He repeatedly struck his chest twice more, spurting out large mouthfuls of heart blood, which only made Lu Qingfeng’s complexion grow even paler, his figure instantly thinning. Originally a beautiful youth, in a mere blink, he visibly aged—
His hair turned stark white.
His body became gaunt.
His eyes, dim.
He had transformed into an old man with white hair in an instant.
Above the heavens.
The Combat Heavenly King, holding the Impermanence Banner, was waiting for the One Yuan Ancestor Master and the Golden Light Ancestor Master to act, seeking to exploit Lu Qingfeng’s vulnerability to strike and suppress him, sending Ao Le tumbling down to the mortal realm.
In that instant,
He saw Lu Qingfeng striking his chest, spouting heart blood, his mind filled with astonishment and even a touch of palpitation.
"A curse?!"
Being worldly and experienced, the Combat Heavenly King soon realized what was happening as he saw Lu Qingfeng’s actions. But Lu Qingfeng, in his haste to protect Ao Le, acted decisively and swiftly. The Combat Heavenly King, just catching glimpse and yet to react, suddenly felt invisible strands of blood, silently spreading in the void, binding his Divine Soul.
Just sensing this,
The Combat Heavenly King was horrified, not daring to delay and quickly sat cross-legged above the Cloud Sky, alternating between flush and pale expressions.
Nearby.
The One Yuan Ancestor Master and the Golden Light Ancestor Master, working together, swept away the incarnation of the Blood Sea along with the twelve iron-backed centipedes. The One Yuan Ancestor Master, wielding a magically condensed Immortal Sword, casually slashed towards Ao Le.
At such a critical moment.
If this blow landed, it could cause irreparable severe damage to Ao Le, not to mention the fruit of the Earth Immortal Dao, and whether he could survive was a question.
The One Yuan Ancestor Master’s face was expressionless, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Yet at that moment.
"Huh?!"
Like the Combat Heavenly King, the One Yuan Ancestor Master suddenly sensed the curse turning into blood silk, spreading from the void and unexpectedly wrapping tightly around his Divine Soul. It felt as if iron wires were cutting into his flesh, the demonic evil blood silk binding the Divine Soul and being inseparable. Spreading further, it also entangled the wondrously assembled Earth Immortal Dao Fruit within him.
"What a dreadfully vicious curse!"
The One Yuan Ancestor Master was both shocked and enraged.
As Earth Immortals are undying.
Not only are their souls resilient, they have also cultivated the Earth Immortal Dao Fruit, which is both intangible and insubstantial. Even if faced with insurmountable human calamities or Heavenly Tribulations, just escaping with either one would allow them to gather endless Immortal Spirit Qi within a breath’s time and reconstruct their bodies to ascend back to the Immortal Realm.
Truly unhindered by anything.
Thus among Earth Immortals, even a Fourth Realm ’Flying Heaven’ could hardly kill a First Realm ’Dust-Clearing’ Earth Immortal, and even those new to Earth Immortal status could not be thoroughly slain.
As such.
Earth Immortals own an undying life.
Also known as immortal and indestructible!
But now, the curse that the One Yuan Ancestor Master faced targeted precisely the fundamental aspects of the Divine Soul and Dao Fruit. The moment it entangled him, it made the One Yuan Ancestor Master feel the crises of his Dao Fruit crumbling and his Divine Soul facing extinction.
He dared not delay.
He quickly sat down, trying his utmost to unravel the curse’s evil silk.
On another side.
The Golden Light Ancestor Master’s face also shifted between cyan and red, hurriedly handling it.
All three great Earth Immortals were hindered by the curse, allowing Lu Qingfeng to finally focus entirely on executing the Rotating Wheel Technique and protect Ao Le. Thankfully, although the exchanges seemed lengthy, only a few moments had passed outside, and only several months within the cycle.
Ao Le remained unharmed.
...
The Combat Heavenly King, the One Yuan Ancestor Master, and the Golden Light Ancestor Master all suffered under Lu Qingfeng’s curse. The curse was dangerously vicious, leaving them unable to spare any attention, only able to sit and watch in the void.
The Beiyin Great Saint and the Beiyang Great Saint were too far high above, far beyond reach.
The Tongling Great Saint, bearing heavy sins, feared the Karmic Fire in Lu Qingfeng’s hands, and dared not approach.
The Combat Great Saint, Bai Changqing, and Situ Zhan were all guarding the mountain gate, also unable to come.
As for the Three Dragon Ancestors.
At this moment, they were still in the Ancestral Dragon Abyss, meditating on the mysteries of the Spiritual Treasure, seeking further advancement, and were uninterested in worldly affairs. Moreover, being from the same Dragon Clan, even if they came, they were unlikely to hinder and certainly wouldn’t kick someone when they were down.
None of the Earth Immortals came, and the Mahayana True Immortals even dared not approach at all, some even fearful of watching from the sidelines.
Lu Qingfeng could rest assured and continue his method. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
In this manner.
The ninth day passed.
