Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1534 - 712: Surviving the Calamity, Obtaining Lesser Immortal Fate (Part 2)
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
In an instant, the curse aura around him surged violently. Three curse seal rings spun rapidly, forming a thick barrier of curse power, covered in twisted Dao Patterns etched on the dark screen, attempting to withstand the impact of the Immortal Fire Longsword.
"Szz—" The moment the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire Longsword struck the curse power barrier, a piercing burning sound erupted. The sacred Immortal Fire spread like a bone-removing ulcer, instantly enveloping the entire barrier. The Dao Patterns twisted and dissolved in the Immortal Fire, as the gray-black curse aura was continuously devoured by the Immortal Fire, causing the barrier to become transparent and shatter at a visible speed.
"How could this happen?"
"Spare me, spare me."
"Once you kill me, the Immortal Race will surely not let you go."
"You have no idea who you are actually killing."
The True Immortal of the Cursed Race let out a shrill howl. His body erupted with Curse-Killing Power, attempting to break free from the bondage of Immortal Fire. However, the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire had already entwined his body, burning every inch from his hair and robes to his skin and Divine Soul. The curse patterns beneath his skin vanished inch by inch in the Immortal Fire, and the three curse seal rings began to show cracks, their dark purple glow growing increasingly faint.
Unwillingly, he raised his palm and countless black curse threads shot from his fingertips, attempting to pierce through the Immortal Fire and retaliate against Jiang Fan. But as the threads neared the Immortal Fire, they were immediately burned to ashes, not leaving even a wisp of smoke.
"Fool."
Jiang Fan looked at him lightly, completely unmoved.
The power of the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire grew increasingly ferocious.
With a thought, all the Dao Patterns on the lotus lamp lit up, revealing numerous mysterious Dao Patterns within the Immortal Fire, resonating with the patterns on the lotus petals, invoking the Power of Heaven and Earth Laws—the sky above ripped apart, countless golden Law patterns emerged from the void, cascading down like a Star River, entwining around the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire, amplifying its power several times.
"Boom!" A loud explosion, the body of the True Immortal of the Cursed Race detonated within the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire. The gray-black curse aura, Power of Evil and Resentment, were completely incinerated by the Immortal Fire. Under the crushing power of the Laws, his Divine Soul dissipated inch by inch, leaving not a trace of a residual soul, only the three curse seal rings struggled briefly in the Immortal Fire before turning into ashes and scattering in the air.
"Could it be true or false? Is this still Jiang Weidong?"
"Merely a discarded child of the Jiang Family, how could he possibly wield power of such magnitude?"
"I’m afraid this guy isn’t far from advancing to Earth Immortal, right?"
"Damn, this guy killed the True Immortal of the Cursed Race, we’re probably next."
"Run, we can’t fight this guy, this Immortal Artifact is too terrifying."
The remaining True Immortals Zhao He, Cheng Yuan, Xu Senhe, Golden Burning Peak, Lu Panggen, and others suddenly had a change in their expressions. They never imagined that the True Immortal of the Cursed Race would be so easily defeated, killed in an instant by this guy before their eyes.
They certainly wouldn’t think that the True Immortal of the Cursed Race was too weak, but rather that Jiang Weidong was too strong.
Especially the Immortal Artifact in his possession, which is not comparable to ordinary Immortal Artifacts.
Even the Immortal Artifacts held by Heavenly Immortals might not compare to this.
Swish, swish, swish!!!
Instantly, Zhao He and the others sprang into action, either scattering in all directions or gathering their full force to counterattack.
But how would Jiang Fan give them a chance.
He waved his hand, and the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire instantly split into five gigantic cages of Immortal Fire, respectively enveloping the five True Immortals. Mysterious Dao Patterns rapidly flowed on the Immortal Fire cages, the power of the Laws constantly suppressing the cultivation of the five True Immortals, preventing them from escaping.
"Damn bastard, wanting to kill me, how can it be that simple."
True Immortal Zhao He wielded a long sword, angrily slashing towards the Immortal Fire cage, blood-colored Evil Qi entwined around the blade. But as the blade touched the Immortal Fire, it was immediately scorched red, the Evil Qi consumed by the Immortal Fire, and the blade developed fine cracks, eventually shattering into countless pieces, his body and Primordial Spirit burned to ashes.
"Shameless Jiang Weidong, don’t think you can kill me."
Another True Immortal, Cheng Yuan, hidden in black mist, attempted to transform into the mist to flee but was tightly locked by the Immortal Fire cage. The mist was continuously burned by the Immortal Fire, revealing his form, ultimately letting out a wail under the dual crushing of Immortal Fire and the power of Laws, thoroughly annihilated.
Rumbling~~~
The battle intensified, Seven-Colored Immortal Fire sweeping through the area. Wherever it passed, whether residual curse aura, black mist, or ground cracks, or crumbling ruins, all were burned and purified by the Immortal Fire.
The void tore apart by Immortal Fire and the power of the Laws, countless black space cracks continuously opened and closed. Within the cracks, faint shadows of stars could be seen, mysterious Dao Patterns surged from the cracks, interwoven with the patterns of the lotus lamp and the Heaven and Earth Laws, covering the entire sky like a giant Dao pattern net, enveloping the area.
The remaining three True Immortals struggled desperately.
But it was to no avail.
Jiang Fan stood under the lotus lamp, his Immortal Light and the power of Laws interwoven, his expression solemn, his fingers constantly pinching spells, manipulating the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire, step by step crushing the remaining three True Immortals.
With the fall of each True Immortal, a tremor of Heaven and Earth would echo, the patterns of the laws growing clearer, the Immortal Fire blazing stronger, until finally, the five True Immortals were completely incinerated by the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire. Their Divine Souls, Immortal Bodies, Magical Treasures, without exception, all turned into ashes, merging into the Immortal Fire, becoming its nourishment.
"It was indeed a close call."
Perceiving that all six True Immortals had fallen, Jiang Fan was instantly very satisfied.
The Seven-Colored Lotus Lamp, the Immortal Artifact he obtained, was still so powerful even in the Immortal Realm.
True Immortals in front of this Immortal Artifact were like ants, not his match at all.
With just one exchange of moves, they were completely exterminated, almost effortlessly.
However, many Magical Treasures he previously obtained in the Mortal World were of little use once he came to the Immortal Realm.
Such as the Taiyi Five Smoke Net, Ten Thousand Beasts Painting, Primordial Magnetic Divine Thunder Pearl, Demon Refining Pot, etc., although they were Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures, strong in the Mortal World, they weren’t much in the Immortal Realm.
So he left these Magical Treasures in the Mortal World for his Dao Companion to use.
Even the Human Emperor Sword was the same.
Although it counted as an Immortal Artifact, it belonged to the Heavenly Destiny Artifact of the Void Realm.
Once it came to the Immortal Realm, its power wouldn’t be so strong, because much of its power depended on the Origin Energy of the Void Realm.
Without the Void Realm, it’s the weakest Immortal Artifact, so it was better left in the Void Realm, as the Stabilizing Needle of the Void Realm to annihilate any descending True Immortal.
"Hmm?!"
But at this moment, Jiang Fan’s eyes showed a trace of cold light.
An abrupt change occurred—
The shattered body fragments, dissipating curse aura of the previously deceased True Immortal of the Cursed Race, suddenly erupted with a terrifying curse power far surpassing before, pitch-black like ink, thick like blood, carrying monstrous venom of "mutual destruction, cursing all souls," instantly breaking through the residual warmth of the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire, surging madly towards Jiang Fan.
This was the lifebound curse of the True Immortal of the Cursed Race, formed from its lifelong curse power, tribe’s resentment, and True Immortal Origin, hidden in the depths of its Divine Soul, only erupting completely the moment of its death, not to harm the enemy, but to perish together.
Even if its soul scattered, it sought to engrave the curse into the enemy’s Dao Foundation and Divine Soul, so that it would be eternally eroded by curse power, ultimately becoming a curse slave, doomed forever.
Curse explosion swept across all directions, pitch-black curse power transforming into countless twisted curse shadows, wailing vengeful souls, tumbling curse patterns, accompanied by piercing shrieks. Wherever it passed, the air just purified by the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire was re-polluted, the healed ground cracks burst open again, even the residual Law patterns in void were slightly dimmed by curse power corrosion, emitting sizzling burning sounds.
"Ha, mere curse, believing it can kill me? What a joke."
Jiang Fan’s expression remained unchanged, having long anticipated the lifebound contingency of the True Immortal of the Cursed Race. At the moment of its body exploding, his Immortal Power surged again, with a low shout: "Ten Thousand Lives Returning Ruins, Shield Against Thousand Curses!"
This was his Lifebound Immortal Technique—Ten Thousand Lives Shield of Ruin.
And this Immortal Technique excels at resisting Soul Attacks and curses from enemies.
Mere curse couldn’t possibly harm him.
