The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 954: Chapter 954: The Annihilation of Bliss Island

”Splash!”

The Blood River surged forward, rushing toward the barely alive Fearness Venerable.

Countless powerful Demon Soul Generals stirred demonic primal intent, dragging down this Sixth Order Peak Great Demon, until the Blood River completely submerged it!

Shen Mo put away the Soul Refining Flag, glancing inward into the flag only to discover that Fearness Venerable was still desperately resisting the refinement of the blood flag; but having been dragged into the flag, turning into a Soul General was only a matter of time, it was simply making a last-ditch struggle.

Immediately, he took out several High-grade Elixirs and swallowed them to restore his depleted mana and heal the injuries to his Soul Body.

Don’t be fooled by his appearance of having not a single injury, appearing calm and composed; in truth, his soul aspect had suffered considerable damage, even more severe than during the great battle against the Longevity Demon Lord...

After all, the Smoke Demon tribe excelled at manipulating emotions and desires, with many spells, Skills, and such killing techniques capable of directly harming the soul;

Fearness Venerable, being a Sixth Order Peak Smoke Demon, was among the best of them, if not for its unique skills being countered by [Fearless], whether Shen Mo could prevail over it was uncertain!

Once somewhat recovered, Shen Mo’s five senses focused downward on Bliss Island.

The tens of thousands of Smoke Demons, after Fearness Venerable was captured by Shen Mo, all used their methods to hide, but under his Dharma Eye, they were utterly visible.

Meanwhile, other creatures, including humans and immortals, fell into great turmoil and panic, their fledgling thoughts and emotions enabling many Smoke Demons to ascend to higher Realms!

In the next instant, Shen Mo swung the Taiyi Sword, slashing out billions of Fairyland Sword Qi towards Bliss Island.

When the sword Qi dissipated, nearly sixty percent of the creatures on the island were drawn into the Sword Zone, including all humans and immortals, as well as numerous inherently kind and gentle alien tribes.

In the blink of an eye, only demons and monsters remained on the island, including the Smoke Demons.

”Go!”

Shen Mo shook the Soul Refining Flag, and immediately, over two hundred thousand Demon Soul Generals, including Fairy Pei Yu, the Ghost Bride, and other Sixth Order beings, roared towards Bliss Island.

Aside from mutated Demon Soul Generals, minor Heavenly Demon Soul Generals, and ordinary Soul Generals cannot advance their Realm no matter how much blood food they consume, thus Shen Mo retrieved them into the flag;

The remaining billions of demons and monsters on the island might not even suffice for Fairy Pei Yu and other Sixth Rank Demon Soul Generals, but Shen Mo was nurturing more Sixth Order beings to set up a more powerful God Slaying Array, and so ordered them to be lenient, reserving some blood food for Master Hong Jue, Gold Piercing Ghost, Serpent-Eel Heavenly Demon, Banzhi Jiaming, and other Fifth Order Peak Demon Soul Generals!

As for the creatures from Bliss Island taken by Shen Mo, even if their nature was pure and kind, as cultivation material for the Smoke Demon tribe, their temperament had long been twisted and tainted through countless years of torment.

Even the humans and immortals from the island were ninety-nine percent villains, and evil cultivators, even kind races like the Flower Fairy had fallen into monsters’ ranks, yet this was due to the environment, and Shen Mo did not intend to feed them all to the Demon Soul Generals.

Upon returning to the Red Flame Sect, he would heavily screen them with sect cultivators...

If any of them could emerge unstained from the muck, they’d be directly taken in by the sect, maintaining their nature in such dire settings ensures limitless potential on their path;

As for the others, whether human or alien tribe, they would all be sent to mine at Five Dragon Mountain, his plans required immense resources, perfect to address the sect’s manpower shortage!

While calculating silently, a terrifying aura rippled out from the direction of the Ancient Demon Palace at Kungu Island, [Chanjue] Destiny began frantically sounding warnings.

Shen Mo was startled.

”Earlier when I slain Fearness Venerable, the Ancient Demon Palace True Immortal showed no signs of action. Now that I intend to completely eradicate Bliss Island, he could no longer remain idle, clearly meaning this move has shaken the foundation of this sect!”

Evil cultivators at the Ancient Demon Palace take powerful demons of various tribes as their masters, and Shen Mo’s complete obliteration of the Bliss Island Smoke Demon tribe undoubtedly causes this sect to lose a line of mighty inheritance; furthermore, many disciples in the Ancient Demon Palace hail from Bliss Island’s human and immortal backgrounds, taking them all results in this sect losing a source of fresh blood... no wonder it alarmed the evil True Immortal of the Ancient Demon Palace!

Swiftly, Shen Mo shook the Soul Refining Flag and retracted Fairy Pei Yu and other Demon Soul Generals.

Now the remaining demons and monsters on Bliss Island had been considerably devoured, even the Smoke Demon tribe was reduced to less than a hundred thousand, their accumulated spiritual item resources had also been thoroughly scavenged by the Demon Soul Generals, leaving nothing to warrant Shen Mo’s continued stay, it was about time to depart!

With the True Immortal aura spreading, the sky abruptly changed colors.

A Demon God Dharma Phase with a terrifying presence manifested out of thin air, glaring fiercely at Shen Mo with eyes as crimson as blood, shooting out two red blood beams with each blink.

Shen Mo, however, did not deploy any defensive measures. With a slight smile, his aura rapidly weakened.

”Pop!”

The crimson blood beams, akin to two fierce blood thunders, struck Shen Mo instantaneously, his body began to melt like a red candle exposed to high heat, within moments it turned into a pool of pus and blood.

”Humph! Consider yourself lucky, escaping so quickly, dare come to my Nine Abysses Sea for benefits again, don’t blame me for targeting Jade Spring Mountain, practicing with your entire sect.” The Demon God Dharma Phase licked its crimson, bone-spiked tongue, swallowing the pus and blood, gazed distantly towards Phoenix Continent’s Jade Spring Mountain direction, its voice rumbling like thunder.

...

Shen Mo had already switched his real body to the Green Cloud Cave through deploying [Reverse Yin and Yang], leaving on Bliss Island the false body killed by the Ancient Demon Palace True Immortal.

As the Hallow Venerable had been exterminated by Jade Spring Fairy already, concerns over Jade Spring Mountain and Corpse Mountain Range being invaded by demons were unnecessary, coupled with Shen Mo temporarily not planning to attack the Soaring Serpent and Bizarre Dragon hovering over Dongjie Continent, the Gecko False Body left at Dayu Mountain’s LiMountain Elixir Sect had lost its value, and self-dispersed years ago.

Before heading to Nine Abysses Sea, to be cautious, Shen Mo spawned another false body, never expecting it to be useful so quickly.

”The True Immortal of the Ancient Demon Palace proves to be formidable indeed, likely to have cultivated into Human Immortal. However, if my real body had not retreated, he merely using a Dharma Phase body would find it not that easy to kill me!” Shen Mo secretly contemplated.

Strongholds in the Immortal Path like them can cultivate numerous ”Incarnations”, manifestations such as the Incarnation responding to situations, the false body of spell illusion, the Incarnation of seizing heavenly items, the Dharma Body formed by Dharma Phase, and others are plentiful.

Shen Mo’s Gecko False Body is one type of false body, but as he advances in the ranks of Gecko Divine Skill, and depth in magic understanding, the Gecko False Body too becomes increasingly mystical and powerful, bound to eventually accommodate all his cultivation level.

While the Demon God Dharma Phase of the Ancient Demon Palace True Immortal, its power, although not equal to the original body, isn’t significantly weaker either.

Shen Mo could engage in a fight with it, yet likely to face defeat and should he become pus and blood, even the [Rebirth from the Residual Body] Skill may not rescue it, hence he decisively sacrificed a false body to return his real body to Green Cloud Cave.

With Jade Spring Fairy safeguarding the sect, that Ancient Demon Palace True Immortal shouldn’t target Jade Spring Mountain just for Bliss Island, confronting the higher cultivation level and stronger Jade Spring Fairy!
