Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield Chapter 819 Chapter 332: Ying Zheng: Eradicate the Remnants of Fallen Nations, Purge Shenzhou! (Part 2)
Previously on Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield...
Zhao Feng let out a laugh, observing the merit points he accumulated from eliminating numerous cultivators.
"State Preceptor."
"Penglai has manifested. Deal with this so-called immortal."
A cold chuckle escaped Zhao Feng as he surged directly towards Penglai Immortal Island.
Guiguzi, with a nod, swiftly followed Zhao Feng's flight.
Within the confines of Penglai Immortal Island!
A miasma of blood enveloped the area.
As Zhao Feng and Guiguzi made their entry.
A peculiar deathly aura descended, accompanied by an indescribable sense of resentment.
Sunlight struggled to pierce through, utterly incapable of dispelling the pervasive resentment and the grim aura of death.
Casting his gaze around.
The Immortal Island was a desolate scene, strewn with corpses, and skulls lay scattered in every direction.
It was impossible to ascertain the sheer number of beings who had met their end on this very Immortal Island.
With just a single sweep of his eyes.
Zhao Feng perceived the grim reality of this so-called Demon Immortal.
"Immortals."
"They sustain themselves on humanity, herd the human race like cattle, and devour spiritual essence to prolong their existence."
"Can such beings truly be called immortals?"
Zhao Feng's brow furrowed, his demeanor turning icy.
"The world as it is now is vastly different from ages past."
"Although the ancient Immortal Realm was also a place of conflict over resources and cultivation, it never descended to such bloodshed and brutality, and certainly not to the practice of preying on each other."
Guiguzi articulated these words with a measured tone.
"Ultimately."
"Their sustenance comes from all living beings; I cannot intervene in that."
"However, they aim to sow chaos in Qin and prey upon my people! I shall oppose them with my very life!"
Zhao Feng's voice resonated with cold determination.
His eyes narrowed, fixing their sharp gaze upon the grand palace situated deep within the island.
He immediately propelled himself towards it.
Inside the palace!
The oppressive blood qi intensified significantly.
Nevertheless.
The palace grounds themselves saw fewer cultivators present.
The preceding group of several dozen individuals appeared to have been mere sentinels here.
Zhao Feng and Guiguzi proceeded into the palace without encountering any opposition.
Within the palace's interior!
The deathly aura and the palpable resentment grew even more potent.
Intermingled with the foul stench of blood and decay.
Upon crossing the threshold.
In the central hall, a pond of blood-red hue was discovered, with the unsettling sight of infant corpses dotting its surroundings.
The origin of the blood feeding this pond was chillingly apparent!
"The so-called immortals are nothing short of demons."
A fierce killing intent blazed in Zhao Feng's eyes.
Should the land of Shenzhou truly fall under the dominion of these immortals and gods, its eventual ruin complete.
Where would there be a home left to return to?
Shenzhou would be transformed into an inferno, a hell on earth.
Not merely as sustenance, but reduced to livestock, managed and controlled.
"There truly are immortals residing in the mortal realm."
"Yet, untested by heavenly tribulations, are you the Earth Immortal from Wuzhuang Temple?"
As Zhao Feng and Guiguzi entered the palace, the Immortal Envoy seated upon the elevated dais naturally took notice of their arrival.
"Crown Prince."
"This individual must be the Immortal Envoy."
"However, his cultivation has not yet reached the Immortal Realm; he is a Loose Immortal operating beyond the stages of Refining the Void and Merging with the Path."
"Despite his deliberate evasion of tribulations, he has not ascended to the Immortal Realm," Guiguzi observed, casting a glance at the figure on the high seat, his voice low.
Zhao Feng inclined his head and began to advance deliberately towards this Immortal Envoy.
"Such potent blood qi, such a strong spiritual essence."
"If I could but devour him, I could achieve an Immortal Body in an instant."
"This person must originate from Shenzhou."
"Indeed, the human race from Shenzhou possesses an exceptionally pure spiritual essence."
As the Immortal Envoy's gaze settled upon Zhao Feng, a flicker of rapacious desire crossed his eyes.
However, Zhao Feng harbored no intention of engaging in protracted dialogue with this so-called Immortal Envoy.
"Heaven-Caging Finger!"
Zhao Feng's command cut through the air.
Raising his hand.
An immense surge of True Yuan was instantly unleashed.
A single finger pointed directly at the Immortal Envoy before him.
With this solitary gesture.
The entirety of the surrounding void instantly fractured, and the demonically corrupted hall was obliterated by the overwhelming torrent of energy.
"You..."
Confronted by this sudden eruption of killing intent, the Immortal Envoy failed to react promptly, taken aback by the immediate and ferocious assault.
Under the impact of this singular finger.
The entire expanse of the void appeared to be under immutable constraint.
A finger capable of ensnaring both the heavens and the earth.
With its landing, the void itself shattered.
This Immortal Envoy, once perceived as invincible in the mortal realm, felt a bone-chiling wave of murderous intent.
"Immortal Cauldron, defend!"
The Immortal Envoy hastily summoned his sacred artifact, channeling his immortal power to erect a defensive barrier.
But in the very next moment.
Boom!
The single finger struck, annihilating all in its path.
The Immortal Cauldron positioned before the Immortal Envoy disintegrated instantaneously, its protective power overwhelmed as the sheer force of the Heaven-Caging Finger engulfed the Immortal Envoy entirely.
The formidable energy dissipated.
The entirety of Penglai Immortal Island trembled under the impact.
This Immortal Envoy was reduced to naught but dust, leaving no trace behind.
However.
Thanks to Zhao Feng's deliberate actions, the Immortal Envoy's soul managed to persist, evading complete annihilation by the Heaven-Caging Finger.
"Killed Loose Immortal First Realm, obtained All Attributes 5000 points, obtained Merit Points 6000 points."
"All Attributes increased by ten thousand, rewarded with one Fifth-tier Treasure Box." The system panel displayed.
Immediately following this.
Zhao Feng experienced a profound metamorphosis, with his power escalating significantly.
In terms of cultivation realm, Zhao Feng resided in the Shattering Void Realm, which mirrored the Immortal Cultivation's Training the Spirit and Returning to the Void stages. Nevertheless, Zhao Feng's actual combat prowess was sufficient to contend with an Immortal, rendering this particular Loose Immortal utterly outmatched.
"The Crown Prince's attack is something that even I might not be able to withstand."
"These Martial Mystic Powers are truly formidable."
Witnessing Zhao Feng dispatch the Immortal Envoy with a single finger, Guiguzi himself was struck with fear.
He had never anticipated Zhao Feng would act so decisively and without warning.
"Bastard."
"You dare to slay an Immortal like me."
"I am affiliated with the Heavenly Court; you have committed an offense by killing me, and the Heavenly Emperor will undoubtedly cast you into the eighteen layers of hell."
The Immortal Envoy's soul, now adrift in the void, hurled furious imprecations at Zhao Feng.
"Do you truly believe I spared your soul for no reason?"
Zhao Feng fixed him with a cold gaze.
Raising a hand.
The Fate Suppressing Tripod materialized.
"Suppress."
Zhao Feng commanded the Fate Suppressing Tripod with a deep guttural roar.
The potent force of National Fortune surged forth, compellingly driving the Immortal Envoy's soul into the confines of the tripod.
Zhao Feng had always harbored a degree of uncertainty regarding the Immortal Realm.
Preserving the Immortal Envoy presented an ideal opportunity to glean intelligence about the Immortal Realm's current state.
This information would be crucial for formulating future strategies and countermeasures.
...
Qin, Xianyang!
Within the Zhan Tai Palace!
"Your Majesty."
"Ever since the celestial meteor descended, a growing number of individuals across the realm have been propagating sentiments of heaven-defiance against Qin."
"Many have exploited the capabilities of the Tian Xuan Mirror to disseminate these narratives, leveraging its inherent authority alongside years of clandestine investigation and infiltration."
