Lu Changsheng discovers his new "Devouring Spirit" Divine Power can destroy the dead spirits of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, boosting his Dao Fruit of All Souls. He decides to systematically clear the first layer. Meanwhile, the White Bone Immortal, cautious in the Heavenly Realm, seeks treasures to establish a Dao Field. Sensing Lu Changsheng battling dead spirits, White Bone Immortal sees an opportunity to ambush him in the isolated Ancient Immortal Battlefield.

After all, as a "demon lord," if his aura couldn't be concealed, how could he possibly ambush others and stalk the cicada, unaware of the sparrow behind?

Thus, as the White Bone Immortal silently drew near the source of the disturbance, a shocking spectacle unfolded before him.

What did he behold?

An Immortal.

To be precise, a True Immortal.

At this juncture, this True Immortal found himself encircled by spectral dead spirits.

The White Bone Immortal made a rough count: approximately fifteen dead spirits.

Fifteen of them!

Individually, the strength of the dead spirits wasn't overwhelming.

At most, each one possessed power comparable to an average True Immortal.

Their offensive capabilities were even less than that of a typical True Immortal.

However, when a dozen or so of these spirits coalesced, a different dynamic emerged.

These specters were utterly fearless and perpetually undying.

Once trapped, if escape proved impossible, the True Immortal faced certain annihilation.

Witnessing this predicament, the White Bone Immortal was overwhelmed by an urge to flee immediately.

Discovery by that phalanx of dead spirits would invite unimaginable consequences.

In his estimation, this particular True Immortal was unequivocally doomed.

Survival was out of the question.

He absolutely did not wish to repeat a past mistake.

Yet, a perplexing anomaly presented itself: the True Immortal seemed entirely unfazed.

Instead, he exhibited an astonishing calmness.

In fact, from the White Bone Immortal's perspective, the True Immortal was far too composed.

His serene demeanor was so pronounced it felt unnatural.

Could it be that a True Immortal possessed some secret method when confronted by more than a dozen dead spirits?

At this precise moment, Lu Changsheng stood amidst the spectral beings.

He was, in fact, somewhat elated.

He remained oblivious to the White Bone Immortal secretly observing his every action.

Completely unfazed by the surrounding horde of dead spirits, Lu Changsheng remained undaunted.

These very dead spirits, after all, served as invaluable "nutrients" for his All Spirits Dao Fruit.

With such an abundance of "nourishment," his All Spirits Dao Fruit was poised for a magnificently satisfying "feast.".

With this thought solidified, Lu Changsheng cast aside any further hesitation.

The All Spirits Dao Fruit residing within him pulsed with faint energy.

"Divine Skill, Soul Devour!"

"Buzz.".

A colossal black vortex abruptly materialized directly above the heads of the surrounding dead spirits.

In an instant, it engulfed them all.

The incredibly potent devouring force immediately seized and consumed the entire group of dead spirits.

"What?"

Upon witnessing this spectacle, the White Bone Immortal could scarcely believe his own eyes.

What was he actually observing?

A dozen dead spirits!

These were undeniably a dozen formidable dead spirits.

Surely, any True Immortal unfortunate enough to encounter them would be compelled to beat a hasty retreat, wouldn't they?

However, that peculiar True Immortal had unleashed a Dao Fruit Divine Skill.

And with it, he had instantly devoured those dozen dead spirits.

The White Bone Immortal had perceived it with absolute clarity.

It was indubitably a Dao Fruit Divine Skill; there was no question about it.

He was aware that a True Immortal's Dao Fruit Divine Skill wielded immense power.

But, regardless of its potency, it shouldn't have been capable of annihilating the dead spirits.

Countless True Immortals had already attempted and failed.

Let alone True Immortals, even Heavenly Immortals had proven incapable of vanquishing these spectral entities.

He surmised that the opponent's Divine Skill could, at best, only achieve temporary suppression of the dead spirits.

Yet, even temporarily holding over a dozen dead spirits at bay was no trivial feat.

He fully expected those dead spirits to break free from the Divine Skill's confinement imminently.

As minutes turned into what felt like an eternity.

The White Bone Immortal began to sense that something was amiss.

Why had the dead spirits not yet broken their bonds?

Conversely, the True Immortal appeared to be drawing considerable benefit from the situation?

"What is actually transpiring?"

"Could it be that this individual possesses the ability to perpetually suppress these dead spirits?"

The White Bone Immortal's eyes widened in astonishment.

The capacity to continuously suppress dead spirits.

He understood the profound implications of such a capability.

If a True Immortal could effortlessly subdue dead spirits.

Even if outright destruction wasn't possible, mere suppression meant...

It indicated that this cultivator could easily traverse and exploit the entirety of the first layer within the Ancient Immortal Battlefield's domain.

Any valuable treasures discovered within that initial stratum could be plundered at will.

This was simply... beyond comprehension!

"How exactly is he suppressing those dead spirits?"

"If this involves a Treasure, and if I could somehow acquire this Treasure..."

For a fleeting moment, the White Bone Immortal's heart ignited with fervent desire.

He resolutely decided against departing.

He resolved to continue his observation.

In the distinct possibility that a genuine treasure capable of suppressing dead spirits was involved.

Then, perhaps, this represented his ultimate "opportunity."

By obtaining this "Treasure," the White Bone Immortal could ascend to unprecedented heights!

Lu Changsheng remained unaware that he had been profoundly misinterpreted by the White Bone Immortal.

He was also ignorant of the fact that the White Bone Immortal, misled by his assumptions, had fixed his avaricious gaze upon him.

In reality, Lu Changsheng possessed no such Treasure whatsoever.

He was not merely suppressing those dead spirits.

Rather, he was directly devouring and annihilating them.

Employing a Dao Fruit Divine Skill.

"A dozen dead spirits, this was truly a substantial gain."

Lu Changsheng let out a soft murmur, a smile gracing his features. He then summoned his attribute panel for an inspection.

Blood and Flesh Dao Fruit: 1% (Mighty Power Divine Power)

Immortal Body Attribute: 1%

Annihilation Divine Eye: True Immortal Level

Comprehension Inference: Can consume a large amount of aptitude points for deduction.

His attribute panel displayed that his aptitude points had finally surged by a million. This indicated that his clone within the Qi Family had successfully refined numerous Great Dao fragments. The Qi Family was now steadily supplying Lu Changsheng with Great Dao fragments for refinement, providing about a million Comprehension points annually. Furthermore, the progress of the All Spirits Dao Fruit, which Lu Changsheng was most concerned about, had now reached 11%. This represented the most significant increase among the three Dao Fruits, largely thanks to the dead spirits. Lu Changsheng had been diligently clearing out the dead spirits during this period, effectively sweeping the entire first layer of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield clean. Yet, the Ancient Immortal Battlefield's space was undeniably mystical, as Lu Changsheng sensed that with a little more time, new dead spirits would likely reappear.
