200 Chapter 205: The Majestic Might of Heaven—The Descent of a Roving Immortal 2026-11-06

The Hatred Heaven Ancestor had remained hidden in his cave dwelling for over a thousand years, never stepping outside. None of the cultivators on the island knew of his existence.

Yet now, someone had suddenly placed a hand on his shoulder.

Even with his Scattered Immortal cultivation, the unexpected touch startled him.

His instinct was to turn around, but before he could react, a terrifying force surged into his body, shattering his meridians and bones, sealing his primordial spirit in an instant.

Standing behind him was Gu An, wielding the Nine Extremes Yin-Yang Body.

Gu An pressed a single hand onto the ancestor’s shoulder, looking down at him.

Though Scattered Immortals and Roving Immortals were only a single major realm apart, the gap between them was vast—like heaven and earth.

And Gu An was at the ninth level of the Roving Immortal Stage, while the Hatred Heaven Ancestor was merely at the second level of the Scattered Immortal Stage.

“Pfft—”

The Hatred Heaven Ancestor coughed up a massive mouthful of blackened blood, and his eyes dimmed.

Gu An immediately cast the Soul Search Technique, delving into his memories.

The Hatred Heaven Ancestor’s mind held an enormous trove of knowledge, but Gu An focused solely on memories related to the Hatred Heaven Divine Sword.

A long time passed.

Withdrawing his divine sense, Gu An summoned the Three Pure Flames to incinerate the Hatred Heaven Ancestor.

[You have successfully seized 1,280 years of lifespan from the Hatred Heaven Ancestor (Scattered Immortal, Second Layer).]

Watching as the Hatred Heaven Ancestor turned to ashes, Gu An finally felt a weight lift from his mind.

Having a Scattered Immortal-level enemy bearing a grudge against him had been unsettling. If he didn’t eliminate the threat immediately, he wouldn’t have peace of mind.

Now, he turned his attention to exploring the cave dwelling.

The space was not small, well-furnished, and even contained a spiritual pond, teeming with various aquatic plants.

Based on the Hatred Heaven Ancestor’s memories, he had no ties to this island. He had merely sneaked in to hide—because he had enemies.

His enemies belonged to a sect that dominated the seas—the Starsea Sect, a powerful oceanic faction with countless disciples.

Gu An had been cautious during the memory search, wary of stumbling upon information about other Roving Immortals or stronger beings.

Cultivators at the Immortal Dao Realm had an increasingly heightened sensitivity to karma as their cultivation advanced.

He feared that if any true Immortals sensed him performing the Soul Search, they might turn their attention toward him.

As for this island, the strongest cultivator here was merely at the Nirvana Stage—not a significant concern.

Before long, the Hatred Heaven Ancestor was reduced to nothing but ash.

Gu An began sorting through his spoils.

The ancestor’s storage pouch was exceptionally high-grade, layered with dozens of restrictions.

Inside, the spatial dimension spanned thousands of miles, containing a massive trove of spirit stones, pills, artifacts, manuals, and natural treasures. ȒἈɴ𝐨BЕṤ

Gu An felt that this single storage pouch alone was enough to found a sect.

He didn’t rush to leave. Instead, he sat on a stone stool and took out a manual to read.

This manual was called Hatred Heaven Dao!

The Hatred Heaven Divine Sword was merely a branch of the Hatred Heaven Dao.

The only reason the Hatred Heaven Ancestor had developed the Hatred Heaven Divine Sword was because he had been a sword cultivator in his early years.

He had discovered this inheritance in an ancient palace deep beneath the ocean when he was a thousand years old.

According to the records, this submerged palace had once belonged to a powerful sect from ancient times—one that perished when the oceans swallowed the mortal world.

The Hatred Heaven Ancestor had risen to power by practicing the Hatred Heaven Divine Sword.

By spreading his sword art, he empowered his Hatred Heaven Dao.

The Hatred Heaven Divine Sword’s immense power came from drawing upon his strength, and in the process, he continuously absorbed the fate and lifespan of those who practiced it.

This was why cultivators who trained in the Hatred Heaven Divine Sword advanced quickly—but also died young.

Even the creator of the Hatred Heaven Divine Sword in the Sword Sect of the Da Yu Dynasty had actually learned it from the Hatred Heaven Ancestor—he had not invented it himself.

After scanning through the manual, Gu An acknowledged that the Hatred Heaven Dao was powerful—but too twisted.

Moreover, its backlash was severe.

For example, the Hatred Heaven Ancestor could never walk in sunlight.

Even at the Scattered Immortal Stage, stepping into sunlight would cause his inner demons to run rampant.

Gu An casually tossed the manual into his storage pouch and continued examining the other texts.

—

The Demonic Cataclysm had entered a critical stage.

The Taixuan Sect had begun mobilizing Outer Sect disciples to patrol the surrounding areas.

That day, a violent demon cat charged into Xuan Valley, attempting to attack errand disciples.

Fortunately, Chu Jingfeng arrived just in time to slay it.

Returning from the Third Medicine Valley, Gu An examined the demon cat’s corpse.

He discovered that it still contained a strange and hidden karmic force.

This force bore a striking resemblance to the Hatred Heaven Dao.

Perhaps this was the very reason why demons turned into fiends.

The disciples gathered around him, worriedly discussing the possibility of a full-scale attack on Xuan Valley.

Gu An reassured them, ”Do not be afraid. With the Taixuan Sect’s protection, nothing will happen.”

But the disciples were skeptical.

Today, it was a demon cat.

Tomorrow—what might come?

Chu Jingfeng lacked cultivation and could only rely on his swordsmanship to slay demons.

If Gu An weren’t around, even a Second-Rank Demonic Beast could wipe them out.

Hearing their concerns, Gu An found their fears valid.

He decided to travel to the Outer Sect City and issue a bounty, hiring Foundation Establishment disciples to guard Medicine Valley.

The disciples were overjoyed by this.

Watching their excitement, Gu An recalled how Cheng Xuandan had once sought out Chu Jingfeng’s aid in the past.

Turning to the north, he sensed that the Demon Ancestor’s aura had stabilized—it was no longer growing stronger.

This meant that the Demon Ancestor had fully revived and could descend south at any time.

Beyond that, he also sensed another presence—one that did not belong to a single entity, but rather a vast land itself.

It was vast and eerie.

This was most likely the Dread Demon from the memories of the Black Bane Demon Lord.

The Dread Demon was legendary. Even the Black Bane Demon Lord had only heard rumors, never seen it.

It was said that obtaining a drop of the Dread Demon’s true blood allowed a demon to revert to its primordial form.

The Six-Headed Flood Dragon, Luo, had once gained a single drop of its blood.

Gu An suspected that even the Dread Demon was being cultivated by the Seven Star Spirit Realm.

—

Demonic energy blanketed the sky.

Thunderclouds churned, flashes of lightning twisting like celestial dragons.

The ground was uneven and littered with bones—so many that it resembled a hellish wasteland.

The further north one looked, the more giant skeletons appeared. Some were as large as mountains, remnants of ancient primordial beasts.

At the heart of this bone-covered land, a massive sacrificial altar stood.

A figure sat at its center.

The Demon Ancestor!

”I’m hungry.”

His voice boomed like thunder, carrying the roars of tigers and dragons.

A black-winged demon bird soared in from the horizon, halting midair above the sacrificial altar. His expression was tense as he spoke, his voice laced with unease:

”Demon Ancestor, you have devoured all the demons within a million-mile radius. Even His Majesty has already headed south to join the battle. There is no more food left for you…”

His gaze toward the Demon Ancestor was filled with fear, and he struggled to keep his voice from trembling.

The Demon Ancestor’s cold eyes shifted toward him.

Terrified, the black-winged demon immediately lowered his head.

”Who said I’ve eaten everything?”

The Demon Ancestor spoke, his voice lazy yet ominous.

Upon hearing these words, the black-winged demon’s face drastically changed. Without hesitation, he turned and fled, vanishing into the horizon within seconds.

But just as he thought he had escaped—

The space before the Demon Ancestor rippled.

Suddenly, the black-winged demon reappeared right in front of him, seemingly dragged out of thin air.

The Demon Ancestor’s hand slammed down on the demon’s head, smashing him into the altar with immense force.

Blood splattered.

A twisted, cruel smile stretched across the Demon Ancestor’s face.

Opening his mouth—

He bit down directly!

”AAAH—!!”

The black-winged demon let out a piercing scream!

The Demon Ancestor did not kill him outright—he was eating him alive.

A long time passed.

The Demon Ancestor sat in a pool of blood, surrounded by scattered black feathers.

He licked the blood from his fingers, his eyes shifting toward the distant horizon.

”It’s time to head south.”

—

The new year had arrived.

But this year’s Spring Festival was bleak.

There was no festive atmosphere, and the various banquets ended quickly.

—

Inside the Nianchu Cave Dwelling, Gu An was spending the festival with Tian Yao’er.

While he roasted lamb, Tian Yao’er continuously practiced her Infinite Free Step, darting back and forth with agile movements.

From time to time, she even used her innate divine ability, transforming into various female demons.

Gu An couldn’t help but chuckle.

”Why do you keep transforming into female demons?”

”I want to see if Master likes any of them.”

Tian Yao’er giggled as she stopped her movements.

Gu An casually remarked, ”None of them look as good as you. Stop changing—it’s unnecessary.”

He meant what he said.

Tian Yao’er was already extraordinarily beautiful, her features breathtaking. No demonesses with lingering beast-like traits could compare to her.

Hearing this, Tian Yao’er beamed with joy.

She threw herself at Gu An, clinging tightly to his arm and refusing to let go.

After acting coy for a while, she finally mustered the courage to ask, ”Master, can you capture two more demons to keep me company?”

Gu An asked, ”What kind of demons?”

”As long as they’re female, it’s fine. Preferably young ones—it’s easier to control them.”

Tian Yao’er smiled mischievously.

Gu An pondered for a moment before nodding.

The various districts within the Nianchu Cave Dwelling were already well-organized.

It wouldn’t be an issue to take in two demon subordinates for Tian Yao’er, allowing her to focus on cultivation without distractions.

”I’ll see if I come across any. I don’t like capturing demons at random,” Gu An said, his eyes fixed on the roasting lamb leg in his hands.

Tian Yao’er nodded along and grinned.

”Master is too kindhearted. Instead of hunting demons, you save them. Being chosen by you is their greatest fortune.”

Gu An shot her a look.

”What do you mean ‘kindhearted’? If you don’t know how to use words properly, don’t say them.”

Tian Yao’er laughed.

”Either way, Master is the best person I’ve ever met!”

Gu An raised an eyebrow.

”How many people have you met in your lifetime?”

”Aiya, it doesn’t matter! You’re still the best! Meeting you is the greatest blessing of my life!”

Tian Yao’er spoke cheerfully, but her eyes lingered on Gu An’s mask.

She had an urge to take it off—but feared he might get angry.

Gu An handed her the lamb leg, then stood up.

”Alright, take your time eating. I have to go.”

Tian Yao’er froze.

She quickly chased after him, asking, ”So soon? Where are you going?”

Gu An vanished into thin air, leaving behind only a single sentence:

”To check on another lonely demon.”

Tian Yao’er’s smile stiffened.
