Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 1577: Chapter 733: Earth Immortals Are Also Consumables, Silent Extinction Time Absolute Immortal Array_2

They are not like ordinary Immortals, radiant and pure, their Immortal Radiance brilliant. Instead, they have shed the ethereal softness of the Immortal Family altogether, each one resembling battle-scarred celestial beings crawling out from endless mountains of corpses and seas of blood, from the eternal Hell itself.

Not a trace of gentle Immortal Light surrounds them, and in its place is an overwhelmingly dense, almost tangible dark Evil Qi.

The boiling Evil Qi wraps around their bodies, surging and sinking, like the black flames of Purgatory, tightly encasing every inch of flesh, with a chilling, violent, bloodthirsty, vast and oppressive presence sweeping across, causing the Immortal Patterns in Earth Immortal City’s countless Immortal courtyards to tremble slightly and dimly withdraw, even the flowing Dao Rhyme of Time stalling because of it.

This Evil Qi is not deliberately condensed power, but instead the life-draining array formed through countless heavenly campaigns, cross-dimensional lethal combat, and blood-soaked killings, accumulated over time deep within their bones, blood, and Divine Soul, weighing heavily down on the human territories, causing the entire Earth Immortal City’s atmosphere to become sluggish.

Upon closer inspection, each Heavenly Immortal’s body is covered with terrorizing scars, crisscrossing in varying depths, new overlapping the old, spread across the skin, arms, chest, back, neck, and brow with no spot intact.

Some are inch-long sword marks left by supreme Immortal Soldiers, the texture of their skin torn by the Power of Laws, with sinister, deeply etched patterns; others are intersecting gashes from the claws of Exotic Beasts, marks twisted and horrifying;

Some are scorched black scars from the burning of annihilation fires, layer upon layer covering old wounds; furthermore, countless fine crack-like scars are imprints of time, left by resisting space-time turbulence, backlash from laws, and the divine might of Celestial Tribulations.

These scars, of varying depth and interwoven tightly, thoroughly shatter what should be the flawless Immortal Body of the Immortal, with not a trace of beauty or ethereality, just a vision full of grim, ruined demeanor.

Even though they have already attained the Celestial Immortal Dao Fruit, with a physique capable of healing all wounds, these scars are all mortal wounds that lacerate the Dao Foundation and imprint upon the Divine Soul, never fading through eternity, marking the Immortal Body forever with the engravings of countless life-and-death battles.

”Fellow brothers, what brings you to Earth Immortal City?”

At this moment, the Outer Sect Steward, the Heavenly Immortal Chang Yeye, appeared here.

As a steward of Earth Immortal City, all matters here are entrusted to his management.

”Brother Chang, the frontline situation is critical, and we need to draft all Earth Immortals from Earth Immortal City.”

A Heavenly Immortal quickly stated, revealing their purpose.

”Forcibly drafting Earth Immortals? Has the situation become that dire?”

Chang Yeye’s expression changed.

Because it’s been a thousand years since the last forced drafting of Earth Immortals.

Considering the hundredfold time flow, that means ten thousand years have passed for the Time Sect.

He didn’t expect it would happen again, proving how perilous the frontline situation really is.

”That’s right, lately the Immortal Race seems to have gone completely insane.”

”They are furiously counterattacking, trying to breach our defenses.”

”If this continues, the defenses might be compromised, and countless cities might fall by then.”

”Therefore, we need to activate the Silent Extinction Time Absolute Immortal Array.”

A Heavenly Immortal in a white robe spoke.

What?!

Chang Yeye’s expression became very solemn, as this is the famous Immortal Array of the Time Sect, created by the Time Abyss Immortal King, embodying the dreadful Immortal Array of the Path of Time.

It is paved with nine hell cold marrow stones, embedded with three thousand six hundred bone talismans engraved with the word ”extinction,” with the Array Hub established at the pillar of temporal decay.

Once the Grand Array is activated, it can harness the Power of Taiyin Annihilation, forcibly extracting the lifespan essence of living entities, severing, reversing, and draining the River of Time of the living.

Within the array domain, time manifests as a gray-black turbid stream, touching it causes immediate decay of the body, Dao Foundation disintegration, hair turning white in an instant.

When the array is complete, sun and moon lose their brilliance, stars hang inverted, blackened blood of time seeps from the ground; people’s memories within the array domain rapidly fade, youth withers inch by inch, finally turning into a handful of dry ash, a wisp of remnants of the soul, lifespan devoured by the array column, transformed into array energy source.

This Immortal Array, if activated, is enough to make countless Immortals of the Immortal Race vanish into ashes.

Even bodies considered Undying have no effect whatsoever.

This Immortal Array is one of the defenses of the Human Race.

However, it isn’t without its drawbacks; it requires extracting massive amounts of Immortals’ lifespan, achieving an exchange of life principle, hence Time Sect needs to mobilize numerous Earth Immortals into the array.

Thus consuming these Earth Immortals’ lifespans, unleashing the supreme power of the Grand Array.

This is why Earth Immortals in Time Sect are merely used as consumable lifespan resources.

Of course, if the situation is extremely urgent, even Heavenly Immortals will be consumed as resources.

It is due to these brutal measures that the Human Race could forcibly block the Immortal Race’s assault.

Otherwise, the remaining human territories would have long been overrun.

”Is it necessary to draft all Earth Immortals?”

Chang Yeye asked.

”Yes, apart from those Earth Immortals deployed on missions, all remaining Earth Immortals are needed at the frontline.”

”This is a task that cannot be refused, refusal means death without pardon.”

”Of course, upon completing the task, each will receive five thousand Contribution Points.”

The Heavenly Immortal in white robe spoke with a very cruel tone.

Undoubtedly, those drafted Earth Immortals will suffer heavy losses, even the best outcome means losing half their true lifespan.

Should misfortune strike, it could result in death and the dissolution of the Dao.

But there is no choice in the matter.

Once the Immortal Race breaks the defenses, everyone will die, sacrifices must be made.

”Indeed.”

Chang Yeye nodded.

He felt very sorry for those newly promoted Earth Immortals, who clearly had just ascended to Earth Immortal status not long ago, only to encounter such misfortune, truly too unlucky.
