Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1155 - 559: Surviving the Calamity, Gaining a Second-Grade Opportunity (2)

The poisonous mist spewed by the Poison Wing Moth Demon was as dense as ink, almost tinting the entire mid-air a deep purple. The abilities wielded by each Void Refining Demon Cultivator were incredibly potent and terrifying. However, every attack that impacted the Heavenless Umbrella's runic light shield vanished as if a stone were dropped into the sea. Meteorites that struck the shield were instantly enveloped by runes. With a sharp 'crack,' the meteorite rebounded, striking the Profound Armor Turtle Demon and sending it shrieking towards the ground. The scarlet claw light, reflected by the runes, pierced through the body of the Red-eyed Wolf Demon positioned behind it. The encroaching poisonous mist, upon encountering the light shield, recoiled immediately, engulfing the Poison Wing Moth Demon. Its wings flapped in vain before succumbing to its own poison, causing it to plummet. Its body impacted the scorched earth, dissolving into pools of black liquid.

"This is impossible! What kind of absurdity is this?" Witnessing this scene, Hu Wushuang was simultaneously shocked and enraged. The human Void Refining Cultivator before him had not even made a move, merely defending, yet he had already caused the downfall of several Void Refining Demon Cultivators. Numerous Void Refining Demon Cultivators were severely wounded. What was the background of this human Void Refining expert? How could he be so terrifying?!

"It appears I have overestimated all of you."

"With merely this level of capability, you dare claim to be the orthodox inheritance of the Ancient Sect?"

"If that is the case, then perish, all of you."

Jiang Fan calmly regarded Hu Wushuang and the other Void Refining Demon Cultivators. His vast True Spirit Bloodline surged within him, awakening like an ancient True Spirit. A colossal phantom of a Soaring Snake materialized behind him, traversing the void for miles and seeming to devour everything in its path. It appeared as though all the world's creatures were its prey, ferocious and malevolent. Within a million-kilometer radius, Demon Beasts sensed the Soaring Snake's aura and trembled uncontrollably, prostrating themselves on the ground. Even the Void Refining Demon Cultivators felt an overwhelming sense akin to meeting a superior being.

"True Spirit... this is the power of a True Spirit."

Experiencing this aura and power, Hu Wushuang was stunned, a primal fear rooted deep within his bloodline taking hold. He recalled an ancestor within the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, who also possessed the aura of a True Spirit. The moment that aura was unleashed, Hu Wushuang himself had been so terrified he collapsed, losing all ability to fight. Who could have imagined that this human Void Refining Cultivator would possess such identical power? This was no ordinary human; it was unmistakably a True Spirit.

Boom~~

Instantly, Jiang Fan activated the Lifebound Talismans on his body. Heaven-Destroying Sword Talisman! Heaven-Dominating Blade Talisman! Heaven-Dependent Spear Talisman! Heavenly Glory Bracelet Talisman! Celestial-Fighting Axe Talisman! Heaven-Stealing Claw Talisman! A series of Spirit Talismans originating from the Immortal Realm erupted forth. It was as if Immortal Realm talismans were being branded onto the void. Like the most formidable Immortal Artifacts stepping out from myth, they descended into the Mortal World. The surrounding void trembled intensely. A terrifying pressure descended, as if time and space itself had frozen.

Bang!

These Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans manifested as projections of Immortal Artifacts, crashing down upon the assembled Void Refining Demon Cultivators. The first to bear the brunt of this assault was, naturally, the six-winged flame tiger, Hu Wushuang. An Immortal Sword locked onto its aura, embodying the might of the Heaven-Destroying Sword Talisman, which contained the power to shatter heavens and earth. In the very next second, with a single beam of sword light, its massive form was pierced through. The terrifying Sword Qi annihilated its physical vitality. Even its soul was torn asunder.

"How... how could this be? Am I... am I just going to die like this?"

"Merely a minor human Void Refining, how could he possibly kill me, Hu Wushuang?"

The six-winged flame tiger, Hu Wushuang, was utterly incredulous. He was, after all, a ninth-layer Void Refining Demon Cultivator, only a single step away from advancing to the Integration Cultivation stage. Under normal circumstances, aside from cultivators in the Integration stage making a move, almost no one could kill him. Yet now, facing an insignificant human Void Refining cultivator, he was powerless to resist. What was truly happening here? Why did such terrifying human Void Refining experts exist in this world?! He was filled with immense regret. Had he known earlier that this human Void Refining cultivator was so overwhelmingly powerful, he would never have dared to provoke the Primordial Talisman Sect. Unfortunately, now, no matter what he felt, it was already far too late. At this moment, his consciousness rapidly sank into an endless, dark abyss.

In tandem, its very essence was completely consumed by the Human Emperor Banner adorning Jiang Fan's form, becoming an integral part of the banner itself.

"Escape! Quickly, flee! This human is nothing short of a monster!"

"Even Hu Wushuang has fallen; we stand no chance against this individual."

"Could this truly be a native cultivator of the Void Refining stage from the Void Realm? How can one be this terrifying? It must be an ancient being masquerading as someone young."

"This location is no longer safe; immediate flight is paramount. No one should perish here."

The remaining Demon Cultivators at the Void Refining stage felt their very beings tremble, perceiving an imminent threat to their lives.

They were not unintelligent; the stark disparity between their own capabilities and those of this human cultivator at the Void Refining stage became glaringly obvious.

Conspicuously, the adversary was merely a late-stage Void Refining Cultivator, yet their combat prowess far exceeded the demon cultivators' ability to contend with.

It was as though a divine entity had descended directly upon them.

There was no time to ponder the reasons behind the human cultivator's extraordinary power.

To hesitate now meant certain death.

Alas, the decision to flee had arrived too late.

For a multitude of Spirit Talismans from the Immortal Realm had already ensnared the distinctive qi signatures of these Demon Cultivators in the Void Refining stage.

The formidable power contained within each corresponding Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman was comparable to a direct strike from the projection of an Immortal Artifact.

This latent power was beyond the comprehension of ordinary Void Refining Cultivators.

Boom~~

In the very next instant, this cataclysmic destructive force unleashed its fury upon the contingent of Void Refining Demon Cultivators.

The physical forms of twenty-seven Void Refining Demon Cultivators disintegrated in an instant, rendering them utterly helpless.

Concurrently, their souls were inexorably drawn into the Human Emperor Banner.

An expanse of territory spanning tens of thousands of kilometers was utterly annihilated, the majestic peaks reduced to mere rubble.

Where towering mountains once stood, a vast, level plain now stretched, a testament to the immense power unleashed.

"Is this the true might of Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans?"

"Regardless of the number of times I bear witness to it, the power of Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans never ceases to astound me."

The Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal Cauldron vocalized its admiration.

It found itself at a loss for words to adequately describe its master.

Typical cultivators required the aid of Magical Treasures to bolster their combat capabilities.

Yet, its master, even in the absence of any magical artifacts, could utterly vanquish all adversaries through the sole deployment of these Spirit Talismans.

These Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans functioned as independent Immortal Artifacts, each imbued with formidable power and annihilating force.

"Haha, that is the sheer brilliance of the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture; one talisman rendering myriad techniques obsolete."

"This young man now possesses the nascent stages of a Grandmaster of Ten Thousand Talismans."

"Even when standing alone, he commands the presence of a vast legion of Talisman Masters."

"The sole detriment lies in the substantial expenditure of magical power required."

"However, the Mixed Element Magical Power coursing through this young man is astonishingly potent, thus rendering the consumption virtually negligible."

The Primordial Talisman Pen articulated with profound emotion.

It vividly recalled the image of the revered founding ancestor of the Primordial Talisman Sect.

That ancestor, with but a single individual, a solitary pen, and one talisman, could subjugate the world, establishing himself as the paramount Talisman Master within the Void Realm.

Presently, Jiang Fan surpassed even that esteemed predecessor.

After all, the ancestor had only mastered nine varieties of Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans.

This prodigious youth, however, had already mastered more than twenty.

With continued cultivation, mastering all Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans should pose no insurmountable obstacle.

Truth be told, this was a rather unbelievable prospect.

For it had never conceived that a Mortal Cultivator could possibly attain comprehension of the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans.

This grand art of talismans was a dominion controlled by Immortals in the Immortal Realm; it was not a path mortals were meant to tread.

Nevertheless, should mastery be achieved, the power contained within was truly incomprehensible.

Boom~~

At this very juncture, a message instantaneously permeated the innermost recesses of Jiang Fan’s sea of consciousness: "You have repelled an assault from Void Refining Demon Cultivators belonging to the Ten Thousand Demon Hall; the situation was dire. Following a desperate struggle, you have successfully vanquished the Void Refining Demon Cultivators, triumphing over a life-and-death ordeal. You have been awarded a Second-Grade Opportunity and one billion Luck Points."Even if all these Void Refining Demon Cultivators were to unite, they stood no chance against him, perishing in an instant. However, he did not feel overly exhilarated. The reason for this subdued mood was the presence of Integration Cultivators, and even Mahayana Cultivators, lurking behind these ancient sects. The Void Refining Cultivators were merely the vanguard, easily overcome.
