Clan Cultivation: I Transmigrated With My Smartphone Chapter 939 708: River of Immeasurable Calamity, Cyan Wine's Ascension (2)
The Undying Demon Monarch unleashed his secret technique, his figure blurring, covering a hundred miles in the blink of an eye.
But right then, a colossal river materialized, engulfing him once again and drowning him completely, with no way to escape.
Crash! Splash!
The river surged forward, burying the Undying Demon Monarch deep beneath its waves.
Every droplet in the river weighed like a towering Great Mountain, stacking up into an overwhelming pressure that crushed down on the Undying Demon Monarch. Even the tiniest shift in his body felt impossibly hard, every action labored and sluggish.
As the river churned, a fierce corrosive power raged inside, intent on melting away all things and devouring his vital essence.
Fire Tribulation, Water Tribulation, Earth Tribulation, Wood Tribulation, Thunder Tribulation, Ice Tribulation, Blood Tribulation... countless devastating powers exploded outward, battering his form in endless waves.
Infinite Tribulation Water, the ultimate disaster born from the fusion of myriad calamities.
Trapped in the river's depths, he faced nonstop onslaughts from these catastrophic forces.
"Open!"
The Undying Demon Monarch triggered his secret technique, dark radiance erupting across his body, as destructive Qi Force shattered everything, ripped through all, and pulverized the flow—the river boomed like thunder, the void cracking repeatedly.
The waters exploded apart, only for them to rush back in the next instant, pinning him down again.
Rumble! Rumble!
The river waters thrashed wildly, on the verge of toppling the River of Immeasurable Calamity and bursting loose.
The man in cyan clothes powered his secret technique, magical power surging from him like a raging torrent, flowing without end, building greater pressure, an horrifying force bearing down relentlessly.
The two clashed fiercely, deadlocked in battle.
Cyan Wine asked urgently, "How is father?"
The man in cyan clothes replied, "This foe is extraordinarily powerful, rivaling the peak prodigies of the Immortal Realm with boundless potential. I'm just a projection, unable to draw much magical power from my true body there—killing him is nearly impossible!"
With those words, he let out a faint sigh.
Only now, in direct clash, did he grasp the true menace of the Undying Demon Monarch.
Regular cultivators plunged into the tribulation river would often reduce to dust, with survivors left crippled in cultivation.
Yet the Undying Demon Monarch endured it, not just surviving but steadily advancing his cultivation.
The man in cyan clothes continued, "My son, remember this: there are always greater powers, mightier experts beyond the mighty. A title might mislead, but a moniker never lies. In raw combat strength, the Undying Demon Monarch isn't supreme; in talent or aptitude, not the best either! But for survival and endurance, he stands unrivaled."
"He grasps the Undying Law, with Qi and Blood dense as mountains, life force boundless as oceans, shrugging off blades and healing myriad wounds—nearly unkillable at the same realm, requiring one or even two realms above to fell him! Even I, your father, can't slay him now, merely trapping him here with my magical power!"
"Child, seize this chance and strike at Feiyu World!"
Cyan Wine nodded upon hearing this. "I understand, father!"
"Go!"
The man in cyan clothes commanded.
Rumble! Rumble!
Just then, a devastating Qi Force struck, a tyrannical aura sweeping across, slamming into the Infinite Tribulation River—the waters roiled, endless calamities surging, and after mere breaths, the river burst open, the Undying Demon Monarch flickering free.
As the Infinite Tribulation River shattered, a massive backlash hammered the man in cyan clothes, his form growing even fainter, on the brink of collapse.
Rumble! Rumble!
The Undying Demon Monarch unleashed his fist art, striking out fiercely.
The man in cyan clothes blocked in haste, his body hurled backward, aura dimming further.
The Undying Demon Monarch's form flickered, unleashing a barrage of blows, strikes growing denser and fiercer, aura surging stronger, as he sneered coldly, "Fellow Daoist, you were so sure you could trap me, but you erred badly. Time to send you to your doom!"
With that, horrifying Qi Force exploded forth, forcing the man in cyan clothes to pour magic into his defenses.
Yet his power waned rapidly, on the verge of breaking—he shouted at once, "Son, flee now, you can't beat him—ascend straight away!"
Cyan Wine cried, "Father, I won't accept this!"
The man in cyan clothes responded, "The first step to victory is mastering defeat."
Cyan Wine declared, "Back when I was in the lower realm, my father bequeathed me three Forbidden Secret Techniques. Please activate the third Forbidden Secret Technique!"
The cyan-clothed man responded, "Very well!"
He unleashed the Seal Technique, igniting the third one.
Suddenly, Cyan Wine sensed his body growing hot, yet he had no chance to speak. A radiant glow emerged above his head, morphing into a three-foot talisman etched with iron-silver inscriptions, its strokes twisting like dragons and snakes, resembling a bird in flight, as though Immortals were performing a dance.
It shifted endlessly, oscillating between creation and destruction, revealing profound mysteries of genesis.
From the three-foot talisman, an immense immortal force rushed into his body. Instantly, Cyan Wine felt weightless and buoyant, yearning to rise into the endless void.
Right then, the Immortal Realm Gate materialized in the sky, opening a path to the higher-dimensional realm.
Seeing this spectacle, Cyan Wine grasped it all at once—the third forbidden secret technique was none other than ascension.
Among the thirty-six stratagems, the finest is to flee.
The ultimate trump card wasn't some ultimate killing strike against foes, but ascension to the Immortal Realm.
"No!"
Cyan Wine pushed the secret technique to cut off the surging immortal force, refusing the ascension.
His inner pride forbade him from turning into a coward, escaping in disgrace.
Yet in that instant, a crimson glow enveloped his form, wrapping tightly around him and hastening his rise.
As ascension commenced, the Grotto Heaven within him remained in the Mortal Realm. His Immortal Artifact, along with treasures and possessions, were all abandoned there, forcing a ascension with nothing but himself.
Those treasures turned into streaks of light, dispersing across the Purple Mansion World.
Bang!
Just then, a devastating strike landed; the man in cyan clothes exploded into fragments, vanishing completely.
The Undying Demon Monarch, seeing Cyan Wine on the verge of ascending away, unleashed his fist art and struck straight out.
Rumble! Rumble!
The void thundered, shattering apart.
Destructive qi surged upward, slamming into Cyan Wine's body. The surrounding red light wavered, rippling like waves; a faint noise heralded a massive fissure, yet it still shielded him.
Rumble! Rumble!
The Undying Demon Monarch attacked once more, delivering two punches in a row.
Crack! Crack!
With explosive noises, the red light shattered and faded.
However, at that precise moment, Cyan Wine became a streak of light, ascending fully into the Immortal Realm.
The Immortal Realm Gate disappeared.
Beneath the onslaught of ferocious magical power, the Immortal Realm detected the Undying Demon Monarch's presence; the connection force surged, vast amounts flooding into his body.
Abruptly, the Undying Demon Monarch felt alarm.
He swiftly invoked a secret technique to break the Immortal Realm link, then used another to seal his Qi and Blood, magical power, aura, and more, while refining the connection force to diminish his aura. Devoid of its mark, the Immortal Realm's connection force waned steadily, ultimately fading away.
The Undying Demon Monarch let out a long breath of relief.
"Haha, Cyan Wine has ascended and fled. Without him, what combat strength remains in your Chaos Dynasty?" The Undying Demon Monarch sneered with icy contempt, his overwhelming aura billowing as he declared indifferently, "Long ago, you schemed to suppress me. Now, it's my turn for vengeance!"
With those words, he launched a ferocious punch toward the Destiny Golden Dragon.
The Destiny Golden Dragon bellowed and retaliated.
Yet deprived of Cyan Wine's command, its strength plummeted sharply. In their single exchange, it was forced back, scales shattering by the thousands; Void Refining Cultivators and Harmonization Cultivators within suffered the brutal shock, their bodies bursting apart instantly, with countless perishing.
