Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 1465: Chapter 679: Destiny Domain, Child of Destiny (Part 2)

”Just a mere mortal human cultivator, they can’t possibly be our opponent. Even in our weakest moment, this human is still someone not to be provoked.”

”Kill him, immediately kill this human so that the Child of Destiny from the Void Realm will be killed by us, eliminating a threat in advance.”

The eerie mutterings surrounded them, and it seemed as if at that moment, the Tree of Eternal Life came alive, with countless horrifying voices emerging as if hundreds of evil spirits were howling.

Now, they were in utter panic.

Because the current situation was really too unfavorable for them.

First, a battle in the Ancient Era had severely weakened them. They suffered serious injuries, and even now those injuries had not completely healed.

Secondly, in order to promote the Spiritual Energy Revival of the Void Realm, they had consumed a large amount of their own Origin Energy.

Under normal circumstances, this wouldn’t matter much.

If given some time, they would naturally recover.

Yet, this human cultivator suddenly arrived at the Land of Return, leaving them no time for recovery.

It was as if this pesky human cultivator had precisely calculated this point, choosing to arrive here at this moment.

A wave of intense fear spread throughout their entire beings.

It was as if their fate had been completely seen through, a sense of fear like never before.

All around, the liquid-like world origin frantically churned, yet as if having a life of its own, all of it was forcefully drawn away by the countless roots of the Demon Tree, merging into the trunk.

The sea of white bones beneath was silent, deathly quiet to the point of suffocation.

Only the dense, eerie runes and Nether Dao Patterns on the trunk flickered dimly, emitting an evil power that devoured Divine Souls.

In an instant—

Bang—!!

The entire Tree of Eternal Demon suddenly awoke!

Its roots, deeply buried in the earth of the Land of Return, abruptly expanded, as countless jet-black dragons burst out of the ground, madly stirring the void, forcibly seizing the Origin Essence Qi around Jiang Fan, even drawing out the Spiritual Power, Blood Qi, and Dao Foundation within him!

Within the trunk, billions of devoured residual souls howled simultaneously, their piercing cries penetrating the Divine Soul, threatening to shatter Jiang Fan’s Divine Sense.

The next moment, the boundless white bone purgatory erupted violently!

Skeletons all around stood up in unison, their hollow eye sockets burning with ghostly green fire, and skeletal claws clanged as they charged toward Jiang Fan en masse, blanket covering the sky.

They were forcibly enslaved by the Demon Tree’s eerie Dao Patterns, undead and indestructible, with each strike carrying a deadly aura of annihilation that dissolved life upon contact.

Meanwhile, the bizarre runes on the trunk erupted suddenly!

Jet-black runes surged like living insects, densely crawling over the entire Demon Tree, weaving into a terrifying Devouring Dao Array. Pillars of sinister light shot up into the sky, holding an unmatched demonic might that stripped away life force, refined the Divine Soul, and twisted the Great Dao, directly blasting toward Jiang Fan!

Wherever the runes passed, the void rotted, origin scattered, and a miasma of death filled the space.

The deeper, eerie Dao Patterns lit up completely, like blood ink divine veins penetrating the trunk, causing the rules of the whole Land of Return to shatter—this was the Devouring Dao’s origin, a supreme Demon Dao Law that sought to devour Jiang Fan, both body and Dao, turning him into nourishment for the Demon Tree!

The crown of the Tree of Eternal Demon danced wildly, with countless jet-black leaves shooting out like demon sabers, while the branches and leaves transformed into all-encompassing ghostly claws, falling harshly from above!

The Land of Return trembled, origin reversed, bones turned to waves, and runes devoured the Dao!

”Oh no, I didn’t expect that after so many years, the power of the Tree of Eternal Life would still be this terrifying.”

The faces of the Primordial Talisman Pen and other magical treasures changed dramatically.

They felt a lethal threat.

It seemed that should they be hit, no matter how solid the magical treasure, it would be shattered.

More importantly, the surroundings were filled with eerie auras, which could corrode the soul and twist the Primordial Spirit.

In the past, many Mahayana Cultivators were like this, having their Primordial Spirits twisted and becoming puppets.

”Is this all you’ve got? It’s really too weak.”

At this instant, golden light erupted from Jiang Fan’s eyes, shattering the chaos, a look of indifference towards fate deep in his pupils, as if he were a god high above, seeing through everything.

He neither dodged nor avoided, as a boundless, ancient, and Dao-surpassing void domain suddenly blossomed around him—

Destiny Domain!

This was no ordinary Destiny Domain. Around the barriers of the domain, there floated exactly one hundred and eight law patterns, an unprecedented Mahayana Domain, akin to the arrival of an Earth Immortal.

With the emergence of the domain, the void within billions of kilometers in the Land of Return suddenly froze!

The violently devouring origin, the crazily dancing jet-black roots, the billions of howling residual souls, the incoming tide of white bones... all actions were forcefully halted at this moment.

This was not power, nor the law, but the supreme Destiny Dao that controlled causality, reversed fortune, altered offense and defense, and decided life and death.

”You, with devouring as your nature, with the sinister Dao as your foundation, plunder the life force of heaven and earth, and seise the world’s origin.”

Jiang Fan’s voice was as indifferent as a Heavenly Dao’s judgment, echoing throughout the Land of Return:

”Today, I shall—return your tactics to you.”

In an instant, the Destiny Domain fully erupted!

The river of destiny, woven with golden light and chaos, surged through the void as countless destiny threads descended like a celestial net, entwining all that the Tree of Eternal Demon hurled at him:

Devouring beams, annihilation miasma, bizarre runes, cursed Dao Patterns, ghost claws branches and leaves, the murderous intent of white bones...

All the supreme demonic might aimed at Jiang Fan, under the reversal of the Power of Destiny, abruptly turned back!

Devouring, turned to reverse devouring!

Curses, turned to reverse curses!

Destruction, turned to reverse destruction!

Deprivation, turned to reverse deprivation!

The terrifying power that was to devour Jiang Fan’s life, refine his Divine Soul, was entirely twisted, refracted, and rebounded by the Destiny Domain, like a giant fate mirror, returning all evil power intact, twofold, harshly toward the body of the Tree of Eternal Demon.

And the most terrifying focal point of this strike—

Was precisely the Tree of Eternal Demon’s interior, where one hundred and eight innate strangenesses lurked!

These one hundred and eight strangenesses were the origin of the Demon Tree’s soul core, the source of runes and Dao Patterns, the embodiment of the Devouring Dao. Usually hidden deep in the tree’s heart, they never showed themselves.

At this moment, the rebounded evil power poured in like a celestial river, straight into the interior of the Demon Tree!

”—Roar!!!”

A howl pierced beyond Divine Soul, beyond life and death, beyond time and space!

The one hundred and eight strangenesses were simultaneously bitten back by their own power!

The devouring force they depend on to survive, reversed and gnawed at their own origin;

The runes of strangeness they imprinted, reversed and shredded their own forms;

The cursed Dao Patterns they interwove, reversed and corroded their own foundations;

The world’s origin they absorbed, reversed and shattered their own existence!

The void shook! The Land of Return cracked!

The entire Tree of Eternal Demon violently trembled, its towering trunk frantically twisted, burst, and wailed.

Countless runes on the bark spun in reverse, crumbled, collapsed, and eerie Dao Patterns that once writhed snapped inch by inch, sending black smoke skyward.

Inside the heart of the tree, the one hundred and eight strangenesses writhed in agony under the backlash of their own power, their forms melting, howling incessantly, and the evil power rampaged, collided, and self-destructed within them!

”How is this possible? This is our power, how could it rebound back to us, making us reap the consequences?!”

”What a joke, this kid actually condensed even a Dao Seed, just what kind of Dao has he comprehended?”

”No, this kid is a monster, merely in the Mahayana Realm, yet he comprehended one hundred and eight types of laws, how is this impossible?”

”Reincarnation of the Immortal King, this guy must be the reincarnation of an Immortal King, otherwise how could he possibly achieve this?”

”No wonder he advanced to the Mahayana realm in such a short time, likely retrieving the Dao Fruit of his past life as an Immortal King.”

”Wasn’t it said that many Immortal Kings in the Immortal Realm were long exterminated by the Immortal Race? How could they still return?”

”No no no, Immortal Kings aren’t so easily killed, it’s merely being cast into reincarnation, and on some future day, the Immortal Kings will return.”

”No wonder the masters want us to eradicate mortal creatures, fearing those Immortal Kings of yore rising from the Mortal World. And now such signs are emerging.”

”Kill him, we must kill him, seize the Immortal King Dao Fruit upon him. If we succeed, we can all ascend to an unprecedented realm.”

The bizarre mutterings swirled, each one was wildly excited.

They were ultimately not ordinary beings.

No matter the lethal strike they suffered, they still couldn’t be killed.
