Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1030 - 501: Crossing the Tribulation with Ease, Gaining a First-Grade Opportunity
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
"Hmm?!
Right as he eliminated the Blood-eating Fish Demon, Jiang Fan felt the curse buried deep inside it suddenly exploding, like the contamination was bursting forth, similar to a living explosive device.
A fearsome beam of black curse radiance launched itself at Jiang Fan, seeking to fuse with his form and consume his vital essence.
Regrettably for it, Jiang Fan had foreseen this development long ago.
Purification Immortal Light!
This represents the initial power of the Human Emperor Sword. It releases the Purification Light, which cleanses every curse and shadow across the world, leaving the Immortal Sword untouched by any taint.
In essence, typical curses stand no chance against the wielder of the Human Emperor Sword; all of them get effortlessly cleansed.
Yet, the peculiar curse from the previous encounter proved an exception.
That one had exceeded the purification capacity of the Human Emperor Sword, forcing him to evade it entirely.
In contrast, the curse embedded in the Blood-eating Fish Demon lacks the strength to resist the Human Emperor Sword.
That's precisely why he ventured here to hunt down the Blood-eating Fish Demon.
Boom~~
Instantly, a brilliant white glow erupted, pure like the cleanest radiance to ever grace the world.
Not a single impurity could endure within this white light.
Sizzle~~
Exposed to the Purification Immortal Light, the curse inside the demon was utterly annihilated, with crackling noises echoing, and from the void's depths emerged mournful cries of frustration.
However, such efforts proved futile.
"Opportunity, a great opportunity."
"This guy has mastered the Human Emperor Sword, he must be the Child of Destiny."
"If I kill him, I will surely gain immense credit."
At that instant, the Shadow Demon Fish concealed in the darkness grew thrilled witnessing this spectacle.
It believed the timing was ideal for an attack.
Since this human cultivator surely depleted a vast amount of magical energy slaying the Blood-eating Fish Demon.
And it lurked undetected in the shadows.
With such careful scheming, this human cultivator couldn't possibly rival it.
Back in the Ancient Era, it had employed this stealthy assassination skill to eliminate numerous mighty beings.
This young one was just a Tier Six Cultivator.
Even after recently escaping its seal with limited recovery of cultivation,
dealing with a Tier Six Early Stage cultivator should demand minimal exertion.
Should it succeed, enormous merits awaited, bringing boundless rewards.
Whoosh!
In a flash, the Shadow Demon Fish launched its assault, its velocity hitting astonishing heights, its shape blending seamlessly into the void.
Simultaneously, it emitted no trace of aura, producing zero disturbances in the void.
It resembled slipping through a separate dimensional layer.
This marked its exclusive assassination divine ability.
Upon nearing a foe, it could swiftly eliminate them and withdraw without issue.
"Finally come, have you?"
Yet for Jiang Fan, guided by fate, the Shadow Demon Fish’s divine ability held little value.
He precisely detected the Shadow Demon Fish's position.
Toward this stealthy foe, he maintained utmost caution, denying any opening to the adversary.
Soul Devourer Domain!
With a mere mental command, Jiang Fan triggered his domain ability right away.
Suddenly, a region covering hundreds of kilometers fell under the domain's grasp.
The heavens appeared to darken, shifting into an abyssal emptiness.
In this domain, souls of every creature faced devouring.
Faintly, from the void's core, a spectral image of the Divine Beast Soaring Snake manifested, its jaws gaping to swallow all soul essences.
As though lying in wait for quarry to enter its snare.
"What’s going on?"
The Shadow Demon Fish felt stunned, aware it had plunged into a bog.
Its form got shrouded by an overwhelming domain force.
Normally, a standard Void Refining Cultivator's domain failed to affect it.
It moved through spaces at will, akin to a phantom in the gloom.
But this Soul Devourer Domain assaulted not the flesh, but the spirit.
Any entity possessing a soul that entered the Soul Devourer Domain endured severe soul suppression.
Right then, it sensed its soul under assault by an unseen power, as though on the verge of separating from its physical shell.
This instilled profound terror within it.
Should its soul separate, it would get wholly consumed by this terrifying domain, dissolving into the nothingness.
"Damn, I’ve been discovered by this guy."
"This guy’s power also counters me."
The Shadow Demon Fish's thoughts churned in chaos, struck by disbelief.
It had assumed this human cultivator fell short of its prowess and could be dispatched with ease.
Little did it know it had misjudged this enigmatic human cultivator?
The foe's domain ability appeared specially tailored to counteract its own divine power.
The instant it crossed into the opponent's domain, detection followed immediately from this human cultivator.
For a demon specialized in assassination, the power of hiding proved essential.
Once its presence got revealed, death loomed closely.
After all, its defenses remained weak, with most investment in stealth and offense.
Whoosh!
Grasping this, the Shadow Demon Fish abandoned its resolve to confront this human cultivator, opting instead for flight.
Lingering spelled inevitable doom.
It flicked its tail, promptly attempting to flee.
