The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 824: Chapter 824: Demon Lord Takes Action, Ciji Commits Suicide

To force an Immortal Master of the Formless Realm to such a degree, not just Silver-haired Child, Qin Zhen, Kang Haoxiu, but even Lady Scarlet, who had witnessed Shen Mo’s extraordinary methods, found it somewhat unbelievable!

Of course, Shen Mo’s ability to reach this level primarily attributed to the mysterious power of the Immortal Mansion Dungeon, which narrowed the power gap between the Divine Bridge Realm and the Formless Realm; secondly, it was due to his profound mastery in magic techniques, the Sword Array, Skills, Destiny, and other unpredictable means to counter the enemy, which allowed him to possess formidable combat power beyond his own Realm...

However, to trap such a Great Cultivator who was only one Dao Realm away from the True Immortal Realm was already very difficult, and to completely kill him was nothing but a pipe dream!

Just after escaping from the ”Universe in the Sword”, Immortal Master Ciji’s aura was somewhat weak, but after just a few breaths, it grew strong again.

At this moment, facing the execution of The Big Dipper Array, not only did he not suffer heavy injuries, but he also continually cast spells to shake the Sword Array, causing it to tremble incessantly;

The seven Dao swords, Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, etc., emitted anguished cries under the strain!

Even though The Big Dipper Array was extremely powerful, it still couldn’t completely trap a Formless Realm Great Cultivator, let alone kill him completely.

Shen Mo knew this well, and was about to call Lady Scarlet, Silver-haired Child, and others to seize the opportunity to leave.

Just then, Longevity Demon Lord, seated firmly on the Dark Cloud Throne, began to speak softly, his voice ringing simultaneously in everyone’s ears and minds.

”Fellow Daoist Ciji has not been able to take them down after so long, and ended up in such a sorry state... Could it be that among these five people is your former friend, a bloodline of your direct line, causing you to hesitate and become passive?”

The Immortal Master Cizi, who was casting spells to shake the Sword Array, turned pale and with a trace of fear, urgently explained, ”Reporting to the Demon Lord, it’s not that I held back, but these people have remarkable methods, and cannot be viewed as mere Divine Bridge cultivators!”

”Just give me half a cup of tea’s time, and I will definitely capture them one by one and present them before the Demon Lord...”

Immortal Master Cizi, while anxiously explaining, quickened his movements, causing The Big Dipper Array to shake violently.

”Oh?”

Longevity Demon Lord nodded slightly, then his lips moved as he began to silently recite an incantation.

Upon seeing this, Immortal Master Cizi’s face changed drastically, showing a look of extreme fear and despair, immediately spitting out a streak of blood;

Within the blood, hid a blood-drenched small scarlet sword, which immediately emitted a nauseating scent upon emergence!

Before Longevity Demon Lord finished his incantation, Immortal Master Cizi’s eyes showed a fierce and determined expression, instantly driving the scarlet small sword towards himself.

”Pffft!”

The scarlet sword light flashed by, and Immortal Master Cizi’s Dao Body was slit open from the top of the skull.

A solid and lifelike soul flew out from the wound on the top, but half of his body had already detached from the flesh, while the lower half remained trapped in the body, like being stuck in a swamp, unable to completely perform a Flying Escape!

”Swoosh!”

The blood-drenched small sword emitted a blood light as it slashed again at the soul of Immortal Master Cizi.

This time, the upper half of the soul finally broke free from the body’s bondage, and his body and remaining lower half of the soul began to melt, just like those who took the Longevity Pill before, turning into a pool of greenish-black moving longevity flesh in an instant!

Only at this point did Shen Mo and the other five realize why Immortal Master Cizi performed such a self-destructive act...

If he didn’t do so, his entire soul would have fused with the body and turned into longevity flesh, culminating in genuine soul dispersion with no chance of reincarnation!

Just for ineffectively defending against the enemy, Longevity Demon Lord transformed his loyal follower of six thousand years with Formless Realm cultivation into longevity flesh for refining elixirs, so ruthlessly heartless and brutally inhumane, truly made Shen Mo and others feel terrified.

Perhaps beyond the visible ineffectiveness of Immortal Master Cizi, there were unspoken reasons prompting Longevity Demon Lord’s decision for a fatal strike...

For instance, Longevity Demon Lord lacked high-quality longevity flesh transformed from Formless Realm (Class VI) cultivators for refining Longevity Pill;

For instance, he was about to reach Perfection of his cultivation and no longer needed so many powerful subordinate forces;

Also, he suspected Immortal Master Cizi was disloyal, and chose any excuse to remove this latent threat, etc.!

On second thought, although Longevity Demon Lord seemed like an unremarkable young cultivator, he was actually a great demon at Sixth Order Peak of the Longevity race, even without any reason, just seeing Immortal Master Cizi as displeasing he also could kill him, it wouldn’t be surprising!

Those categorized by ordinary creatures in the world as demons are usually brutal, bloodthirsty, and malevolently evil, unable to be measured with normal human thought.

Within The Big Dipper Array, Immortal Master Cizi’s remaining soul showed an extremely venomous expression, from its soul depths suddenly flew out a high-level talisman with obscure aura, exuding waves of immortal light.

Realizing the strength of this talisman, Shen Mo gestured to retrieve the Sword Array, the seven small swords returned to roam around his wrist!

The next moment, the obscure talisman turned into a black beam, shooting into the sky, instantly exploding a large hole in the dark clouds shrouding the entire Jade Moon;

Following that, his remaining soul rolled on the ground, wrapped his longevity flesh transformed from remains and scattered magic treasures and spiritual items, turning into a ray of remnant light, escaping through the formation’s breach at a speed beyond imagination!

”We must leave too!”

Silver-haired Child, Lady Scarlet, and others, seeing this, showed delight and quickly set up escaping light, preparing to fly towards the breach.

However, the breach blown by the obscure talisman lasted only an instant before Immortal Master Cizi’s soul just flew away, and the Celestial Palace array immediately began self-repairing, recovering within the blink of an eye!

Longevity Demon Lord watched helplessly as Immortal Master Cizi escaped the Celestial Palace array, whether out of inability to block or alternative intent remains unknown.

Then, he stood up from the Dark Cloud Throne, gazed at Shen Mo and his comrades, smiling gently, and said, ”One is a reincarnated rebirth soul, one’s talent and vitality are peerless in the world, one is a rarely seen Charming Body, another is an ancient Spirit Beast Nine-tailed Fox Demon...”

”Using your bodies and souls to refine longevity flesh naturally carries distinct magical properties, making it the best material for refining Longevity Pills. Truly splendid! This throne is indeed worthwhile to take action personally.”

In conversation and laughter, he raised the bronze halberd, slashing towards them.

Even though he slashed only once, it seemed as though five people were simultaneously under attack... Shen Mo, Lady Scarlet, Silver-haired Child, Qin Zhen, and Kang Haoxiu, all sensed the bronze halberd heading toward them!

This wasn’t a delusion among them, nor were their five senses deceived, but rather the mysterious property of this Immortal level magic artifact.
