Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1031 - 501: Crossing the Tribulation with Ease, Gaining a First-Grade Opportunity (Part 2)

Jiang Fan simply wouldn't permit this Ancient Demon to depart without a struggle.

Should an assassination-proficient demon manage to flee and conceal itself in the darkness, the potential dangers it could unleash are beyond prediction.

Even if it failed to take his life, it might strike down those close to him.

A demon this problematic must not exit this area breathing.

"Die."

A chilling gleam flashed in Jiang Fan’s gaze, and he swiftly triggered yet another Sub-Immortal Artifact in his possession—the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber.

This stands as a supremely potent offensive Magical Treasure.

Upon targeting the foe’s aura and karmic ties, it strikes true without fail.

Employing other Magical Treasures might prove ineffective against the swift Shadow Fish Demon.

Given the enemy’s velocity, it could evade the strike’s reach in a flash.

Yet the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber operates differently.

Its assault velocity surpasses even that of the Shadow Fish Demon.

Boom~~

Instantly, Jiang Fan channeled his immense Primordial Magical Power into the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber, unleashing its full might.

In that instant, it morphed into a brilliant white energy form, enveloped in a fearsome aura of slaughter and icy brilliance.

It appeared as the ultimate instrument of death upon the earth.

Whoosh!

The following moment, the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber fixed on the Shadow Fish Demon’s aura, hurtling forward like a guided projectile and reaching its mark without delay.

In scarcely a heartbeat, it loomed before this Ancient Demon.

The blade’s glow carried the force to rend the fabric of space.

Myriad fissures spiderwebbed across the nearby void.

"How is this possible? How many Magical Treasures does this guy have?"

Witnessing this, the Shadow Fish Demon’s eyes bulged in disbelief at the sight.

Possessing the Human Emperor Sword, an Immortal Artifact, was already a stroke of extraordinary fortune, hard to fathom.

Yet alongside this Immortal Artifact existed another, rendering the scenario utterly inconceivable.

It couldn’t fathom how this detestable human cultivator had acquired it.

But dwelling on such matters wasn’t feasible now.

"It’s over."

Before the Shadow Fish Demon could devise a counter, the saber closed in, impaling its form in an instant.

Regarding defenses, it paled in comparison to a beast like the Blood-eating Fish Demon.

Thus, against the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber’s might, its protections were utterly feeble.

Its frame shattered as easily as bean curd.

What terrified it further was the outburst of Destruction Law power from the blade.

Pulses of annihilating energy radiated outward.

This force could obliterate all, soul included.

In that moment, regret washed over it like tears.

It remembered the Blood-eating Fish Demon’s earlier proposal; had it struck then and allied against this human cultivator, they might have crushed him.

But its overabundant wariness allowed the Blood-eating Fish Demon to fall swiftly to this human.

One could say its extreme prudence resulted in their piecemeal downfall.

Regrettably, words now held no power to alter the outcome.

After all, regret offered no remedy in this realm.

Boom~~

In a flash, the Shadow Fish Demon’s soul shattered, and its enormous demonic corpse plunged into the ocean depths.

Upon its demise, the curse embedded in its body detonated, seeking to erode Jiang Fan.

Yet the Human Emperor Sword purified it effortlessly, barring any curse from nearing him.

Thus, the pair of Ancient Demons, freshly freed from their bindings, met their end at his hands without hope of reprieve.

Boom~~

Right then, a notification surged into the core of Jiang Fan’s mind sea: "Through swift action and full exertion to ultimately eliminate two Ancient Demons, you’ve aided all life in averting a dire crisis. You receive one billion Luck Points and a First-Grade Opportunity."

Feeling this alert, Jiang Fan exhaled deeply in reassurance.

He had fretted that his prior strikes hadn’t truly felled these two Ancient Demons.

After all, Ancient Demons brimmed with deceptions and endless tricks; their secret aces remained unknown.

They might possess ways to flee and endure.

But with fate confirming the notice, it proved these two Ancient Demons had perished irrevocably.

In essence, he had steered the Black Dragon Sea Region past a monumental disaster.

Had these two Ancient Demons persisted, countless lives would have fallen to their blades.

"I actually obtained one billion Luck Points; this bounty rivals clearing a demon lair."

Jiang Fan felt a touch of astonishment himself, unprepared for such a vast haul of Luck Points.

He’d anticipated perhaps tens of millions at best, but a full billion seemed overstated.

Still, upon reflection, it made perfect sense.

For the peril these two Ancient Demons represented equaled that of a demon lair.

Take the Blood-eating Fish Demon: without his specific countermeasures, its survival prowess might have thwarted even Integration or Mahayana cultivators from slaying it.

The Shadow Fish Demon mirrored this, its stealth techniques overwhelmingly potent, blending seamlessly into shadows and emptiness.

Absent the fate’s unceasing surveillance of this demon, Jiang Fan would struggle to pinpoint its position.

As for fellow cultivators, they stood no chance.

Furthermore, newly liberated, the demons languished at their nadir. Grant them time to restore their cultivation, and the entire Void Realm might lie defenseless, its inhabitants massacred.

Hence, claiming one billion Luck Points proved entirely justified, not excessive.

"And a First-Grade Opportunity too? I’m eager to see what treasure awaits."

Curiosity gripped Jiang Fan regarding this First-Grade Opportunity, the pinnacle of boons in the Void Realm.

Such prizes were exceedingly scarce.

A single one could propel a cultivator to upend destiny, ascending as a Child of Fortune.

Thus, his intrigue toward this First-Grade Opportunity burned strong.

"Does the precise site of this First-Grade Opportunity lie within the Demon Cave?"

"Though the two Ancient Demons broke free from it, remnants of fortune linger inside."

Jiang Fan reviewed the details of this opportunity and swiftly learned it resided in the Demon Cave.

Likely a legacy from some Ancient Era powerhouse.

Whoosh!

With that thought, he wasted no time, his form blurring as he sped toward the Demon Cave’s position.

The Demon Cave sat thirty thousand meters beneath the Black Dragon Sea Region, once the domain of the Five Poison Flood Dragon.

The Flood Dragon lineage had vigilantly overseen this spot for ages.

Throughout, no grave incidents had arisen.

Yet with the Spiritual Energy Revival and upheavals in the cosmos, the Demon Cave’s seal faltered.

Thereby allowing those two Ancient Demons to burst forth.

For typical mortals, plunging thirty thousand meters into the depths proved near unattainable.

But for Jiang Fan, a Tier Six Cultivator, it amounted to mere simplicity.

His Mana Shield repelled the encircling seawater.

It resembled employing a pearl that warded off water.

Not a drop of seawater could touch his frame.

Soon enough, Jiang Fan reached the notorious Demon Cave.

Before him loomed a colossal undersea volcano, relentlessly ejecting scorching magma and inky fumes.

The ambient heat scorched fiercely.

Entering this place evoked stepping into infernal realms.

Within the undersea volcano yawned a vast cavern, plunging endlessly without a trace of light.

At the ocean floor, the structure’s exterior bore intricate Array patterns densely etched.

Each rock defied destruction.

Forged from unique substances.

Clearly, an Array from the Ancient Era had been erected here long ago.

Yet across the eons, this Ancient Array lay in ruins, scarred with craters and breaches everywhere.

Likely the doing of the two Ancient Demons in their breakout frenzy.

Otherwise, such comprehensive ruin wouldn’t have occurred.

Meanwhile, the cavern’s interior brimmed with thick demonic aura, hoarded across billions of years.

Whoosh!

Jiang Fan delayed no longer, his silhouette darting as he plunged straight into the Demon Cave.
