Centuries might pass.
This initial spatial layer will continue to manifest a multitude of spectral remains.
This bounty is quite beneficial for Lu Changsheng.
Should his Wanling Dao Fruit fail to advance by then, he could revisit the first layer of the Heavenly Abyss Ancient Immortal Battlefield in a few hundred years to continue absorbing these spectral remains.
"The first spatial layer is almost entirely cleared," he mused.
"Such a vast number of spectral remains only aided the Wanling Dao Fruit's progress to 11%."
"To achieve its peak for advancement, it appears reaching that state won't be simple."
Lu Changsheng understood this reality.
The task of augmenting the Dao Fruit is exceedingly arduous.
Many cultivators only dedicate their efforts to enhancing their Dao Fruits after achieving the Heavenly Immortal realm.
As for those at the True Immortal stage?
Generally, no one expends significant time or resources on improving their Dao Fruit.
The reason being the sheer difficulty involved in such an endeavor.
Throughout this period, Lu Changsheng scoured the first layer, consuming countless spectral remains, yet he unearthed not a single Immortal Treasure.
Just as he had anticipated.
This initial spatial layer of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, despite its abundance of spectral remains, poses no threat to Heavenly Immortals.
It must have been subjected to numerous clearances.
How could any Immortal Treasures possibly remain?
Consequently, Lu Changsheng resolved to venture into the subsequent spatial layer.
However, as he prepared to depart, the White Bone Immortal grew anxious.
He perceived Lu Changsheng's intent to proceed to the next level.
The question gnawed at him: would Lu Changsheng still deign to share any treasures if he advanced?
At this juncture, the White Bone Immortal became utterly convinced that Lu Changsheng possessed an extraordinary artifact capable of suppressing spectral entities.
Regarding his Divine Skills?
That was merely a display put on by Lu Changsheng.
The White Bone Immortal steeled his resolve.
He was a fiend.
Even though he lacked knowledge of Lu Changsheng's true capabilities.
Nor did he know the latter's true identity.
It made no difference.
From the inception of his cultivation journey, had he not consistently embraced risk?
Only through daring gambles could the greatest rewards be reaped!
Lu Changsheng seemed utterly oblivious to the impending peril.
He was already poised to ascend to the second spatial layer.
With each deliberate step, Lu Changsheng drew nearer to the White Bone Immortal's hidden position.
In the ensuing moment, the White Bone Immortal made his move.
"Buzz."
He thrust his hand forward with sudden force.
A bracelet adorning his wrist dislodged itself, hurtling through the air.
This artifact emanated a malevolent dark aura, swiftly enveloping Lu Changsheng.
Simultaneously, the White Bone Immortal intensified the activation of his Dao Fruit.
Instantly, the Divine Skills contained within the Dao Fruit erupted with explosive power.
"Divine Skill, Bone-Eroding!"
The White Bone Immortal demonstrated true decisiveness.
Upon committing to action, he held nothing back, unleashing his full power.
He even deployed the potent Divine Skill of his Dao Fruit.
Once this "Bone-Eroding" technique was unleashed.
A shimmering layer of white light enveloped Lu Changsheng.
Swiftly thereafter, Lu Changsheng's physical form began to rapidly decay.
A smile graced the White Bone Immortal's lips.
Hit by his Bone-Eroding Divine Skill, death was assured!
He harbored immense confidence in the efficacy of his Divine Skill.
On one occasion, a long time ago, the White Bone Immortal had utilized the Bone-Eroding Divine Skill in a surprise attack, managing to slay a True Immortal.
This secret he had guarded closely, never divulging it to anyone.
For a fiend, discretion was paramount.
He truly understood the art of keeping secrets.
When the situation called for subtlety, he remained unobtrusive.
He had bided his time until this very moment.
He would seize the opportunity, regardless of the cost, to annihilate Lu Changsheng and claim his treasures.
"A rather formidable Divine Skill."
Suddenly, Lu Changsheng, who had been struck by the Bone-Eroding Divine Skill, uttered these words.
From the inflection of his voice, it was evident that Lu Changsheng appeared to have sustained minimal injury.
"How can this be?"
The smile on the White Bone Immortal's face faltered slightly.
He found it inconceivable that one could emerge unscathed after being struck by his Bone-Eroding Divine Skill.
Yet, the reality unfolded precisely as observed.
Lu Changsheng stepped forward, exiting the area affected by the Bone-Eroding Divine Skill's reach.
He was demonstrably unharmed.
"Flee!"
Despite the shock that gripped the White Bone Immortal.
He acted with swift decisiveness.
With resolute speed, he turned and fled.
The White Bone Immortal did not hesitate for a moment, turning tail and vanishing.
Lu Changsheng calmly observed the retreating White Bone Immortal.
Truth be told, he had been caught off guard earlier.
The White Bone Immortal's Concealing Breath Technique was remarkably effective, evading even Lu Changsheng's detection.
He had been struck unexpectedly.
However, Lu Changsheng possessed a constitution far beyond that of ordinary True Immortals.
He had achieved the unity of three distinct Immortal Bodies.
This included the Path of the Physical Immortal.
Consequently, the robustness of Lu Changsheng's physical body was nothing short of extraordinary.
While not yet at the echelon where the "Immortal Attribute" could be manifested.
Merely relying on the Bone-Eroding Divine Skill alone, the notion of instantly vanquishing Lu Changsheng was likely a futile endeavor.
Lu Changsheng himself reckoned that at the True Immortal Stage, there was probably no one capable of achieving his immediate demise.
As for the Heavenly Immortal realm, Lu Changsheng had not yet encountered any, thus he offered no definitive assurance.
Nevertheless, despite emerging unscathed, Lu Changsheng harbored no intention of showing leniency towards the White Bone Immortal.
Given that his adversary had initiated a clandestine assault, the White Bone Immortal ought to be prepared to face the repercussions of a botched ambush!
The White Bone Immortal executed his retreat with remarkable swiftness and decisiveness.
Indeed, the distance between them expanded almost instantaneously.
Moreover, the White Bone Immortal possessed supplementary stratagems at his disposal.
A pre-established Immortal Array had been concealed in the vicinity for some time.
Should Lu Changsheng dare to pursue, this array would present an opportune moment for a counter-offensive.
Even if outright victory was unattainable, the interference caused by the Immortal Array would undoubtedly facilitate his escape.
The White Bone Immortal exhibited an excessive degree of circumspection.
This cautious disposition was a deeply ingrained habit, carried over from his time in the Lower Realm.
After all, he had been a pariah, a veritable devil whom the entire world sought to eradicate while he was suppressed below.
At virtually every juncture, individuals were plotting his demise.
Were he not exceptionally cautious, even with his considerable might, he would have perished countless times over already.
The reasoning was simple: regardless of the magnitude of one's power, vigilance against unseen ambushes remained difficult.
His ingrained caution served as the bedrock of his protracted survival, enabling his eventual ascension to the Immortal realm.
