As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1777: Nine Steps to the Heavenly Gate to Attain Martial Immortal, Three Immortal Seeds Guide Mechanisms to Annihilate the Black Bull

A sudden, violent eruption left everyone stunned.

It surged forward, blanketing the obsidian gateway belonging to the Black Bull Demon God Venerable. Infused with death qi and darkness as impenetrable as ink, the phenomenon appeared profound and bleak, seemingly draining all light from the surroundings!

The powerful figures who had been fixated on Fang Hanshu were forced to divert their attention toward the massive black city gate sprawling before them.

Though it was merely a single gate, it completely obscured the Black Bull Demon God Venerable, allowing not even a trace of his presence to escape!

"Underworld!"

A deep voice resonated through the air.

It was the Chan Wen Ascetic Monk from the Western Regions Buddha Land. His monk robes fluttered violently, radiating an overwhelming aura. Within his gaze, two flaming cicadas seemed to be flapping their wings as he stared intensely at the Fengdu Gate leading to the Underworld.

He also caught sight of the Divine Monkey positioned atop the gateway.

"Is the Underworld finally making its move?"

Zhang Wuji, the Divine Sect Master of the Purple Mansion, flicked his horsetail whisk, his Daoist robes dancing in the wind. A flicker of unusual emotion appeared in his eyes.

The fact that the Black Bull Demon God Venerable had been pulled into the Mo City Fengdu didn't bother him, but the Underworld had left a lasting mark on him; he had witnessed his own disciples and grandchildren perish at the hands of Underworld agents in the Divine Capital.

While Li Che—a Horse Face of the Underworld—was clearly linked to the faction, even Zhang Wuji remained ignorant of the mysterious group's true origins.

"Is the Underworld acting in the interest of Equaling Heaven?"

"It seems... the Underworld shares a deep connection with the Prison Lotus!"

"Could the Prison Lotus be the true power behind the Underworld?"

Zhang Wuji narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.

"The Prison Lotus stands behind the Underworld? That’s absurd... The Divine Tide has only just commenced, and while all major camps are beginning to return, no god from the Prison Lotus camp has surfaced to claim anyone. They are undeniably falling behind, and surely, no other faction desires the return of the Prison Lotus gods."

The quiet voice of the woman known as Guanyin drifted through the air.

She represented the South Sea Bamboo Forest, a remarkably enigmatic divine sect.

Zhang Wuji glanced at her, their gazes locking in mid-air. It was clear that both possessed influential support from the All Gods Camp within the Strange Que; in this human realm, ascending to power and dominance required strong backing.

Thus, they remained convinced that the Underworld must be supported by a greater force.

So far, the Underworld’s actions—whether protecting the Daughter of Prison Lotus or interceding for Equaling Heaven—all pointed toward an alliance with the Prison Lotus camp.

"Forget it, let it be. If the Underworld has claimed the Big Black Bull without hindering our path, we shall leave well enough alone."

The Chan Wen Ascetic Monk shifted his gaze, refocusing on the imposing figure of Fang Hanshu.

He stepped forward, his body glowing with roaring Buddha Light as if he were plated in gold—the Vajra Indestructible form.

Countless flames erupted, manifesting one of the dreaded Tribulation Fires.

"Do not underestimate him. Since he has borrowed power from Gongshu Guigu, remember that Guigu’s talent for harnessing the Heaven and Earth Will is terrifying!"

"We cannot allow him to ascend!"

Boom—!!!

Ignoring the Underworld entirely, the Ascetic Monk launched the first assault.

His focus narrowed exclusively on Fang Hanshu.

Nearby, the Emperor of Dajing, Lu Wenchang, joined the fray. A flag-tipped spear appeared in his grip, the motion causing the void to ripple and warp.

The Witch God Priest from Wushen Mountain, Zhang Wuji of the Purple Mansion, and Guanyin from the South Sea Bamboo Forest also initiated their attacks simultaneously.

Five Divine Tribulation Venerables of the Second Calamity Realm struck before the temple gate, causing the very fabric of space to undulate and fold under the pressure.

Fang Hanshu’s Vast Spear trembled as his aura surged, shattering the restrictions of the Second Calamity. His body shimmered with a brilliant white light, every ounce of his blood, flesh, and spirit pushed to its absolute limit!

Light blossomed from the spear as he thrust it forward like a bolt of white lightning. The weapon carved through the turbulent airflow, creating ear-splitting sonic booms as it lunged toward the five collaborating Venerables.

The force of the Vast strike left lingering, jagged white airwaves scarred into reality!

Boom—!!!

Fang Hanshu’s hair whipped around his face, his beard swung wildly, and his posture remained as rigid as steel.

His battle spirit reached for the heavens!

Thanks to the crushed turtle shell, he seemed, in that moment, to be infused with the very Heaven and Earth Will of the human world.

It was a transcendental and terrifying pressure!

Fear was absent from Fang Hanshu’s eyes as they erupted with a dazzling white glare.

He knew well that defeating five Second Calamity Venerables was an impossible feat.

His objective was simple: to delay them!

As long as the Fang Family Ancestor could breakthrough the suppression placed by these various factions and return to the Qitian Temple, his task would be fulfilled.

After all, the Fang Family Ancestor had transformed into a Three Calamities Divine Tribulation Supreme-level Temple Guardian Cursed Corpse.

These Second Calamity Venerables, if forced to face the Ancestor head-on, would likely be crushed by sheer presence alone.

The two entities existed on fundamentally different planes.

"Fight!"

Surrounded by the Vast aura, Fang Hanshu stood tall, his torso firm like a Jiao Long.

Though a scholar by trade, a scholar can also...

Wield a spear to annihilate invaders!

The battle cry echoed as blood stained the azure sky.

...

...

Boom—!!!

Mo City Fengdu!

A massive, unrestrained burst of energy occurred!

The gigantic Black Bull crashed down, causing the earth beneath Mo City to fissure like a web.

Splintering lines nearly covered the entirety of Mo City Fengdu Square!

A fearsome pressure ravaged the atmosphere, making the air groan in agony, as if the world were on the verge of total annihilation!

Hiss hiss hiss—

As boiling qi-blood intertwined, the Black Bull Demon God Venerable slowly hoisted himself to his feet. Demon energy swirled around him, and his crescent-moon horns gleamed, fully displaying their deadly potential!
