Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

274: Chapter 274 One palm strike slays the Demon Emperor, three breaths settle the universe!Long Da raised his eyes, his gaze churning with a worldly arrogance: ”Your three crimes combined are unforgivable; today, you shall be executed.”

As his words fell, the five-colored giant hand suddenly exerted force.

But this was merely the beginning.

When Long Da made a move, he never dragged things out.

He knew well that a lion uses its full strength even when hunting a rabbit, let alone this old crow before him, who was, regardless of anything else, an existence at the Immortal Emperor level; his death throes could not be underestimated.

Therefore, while the first strike, Five Elements Great Luo Heaven Immortal Kingdom in Palm, gripped Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu, the immortal essence and magic power within his body surged out like a breached dam, activating various Divine Abilities in one continuous motion.

One could see five-colored radiance rising from the top of Long Da’s head, condensing into a magnificent pillar of light.

Within that pillar, the essence of eternal indestructibility swirled, and the power to transcend tribulations and dispel darkness vibrated.

It was precisely the ”Five Elements Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Tribulation-Transcending Divine Light.”

Once this light appeared, the tribulation qi permeating the body of the Demon Emperor Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu was instantly washed away, as if scorching sun melting snow, leaving nothing behind.

Without the support of the tribulation qi, Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu’s previously frantic consciousness suddenly cleared somewhat.

He widened his eyes, staring at the scene before him, finally realizing what he was about to face.

But it was too late.

Immediately following this, another beam of divine light shot out from between Long Da’s brows.

This light was interwoven with five colors, primordial Chaos unformed, containing the supreme essence of Primordial Chaos.

It was precisely the ”Great Luo Heaven Supreme Primordial Five Elements Chaos Divine Light.”

It did not harm the Physical Body, instead specifically breaking through Primordial Spirit protections, striking directly into the depths of the Demon Emperor’s Divine Soul.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu felt a thunderous explosion in his mind, as if struck by an invisible giant hammer, his consciousness instantly blurring.

His Solar True Fire, of which he was so proud, was easily pierced through by this Chaos Divine Light, as if it were made of paper.

It wasn’t over yet.

Long Da silently chanted a mantra, his voice sounding like metal striking stone, every syllable resonating with the Laws of heaven and earth.

”Great Luo Heaven Five Elements Heavenly Mandate Divine Curse.”

This divine curse was formless and intangible, acting directly upon the Demon Emperor’s Heavenly Mandate, Luck, and Karma.

It severed his connection with heaven and earth, stripped away his Luck, and burned away his good fortune.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu felt as if something had snapped in the netherworld, like a rope sustaining his life being cut by a sharp blade.

He couldn’t help but feel a weakness that penetrated to his very bones.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu had cultivated for hundreds of millions of years; how profound was the Heavenly Mandate and Luck he had accumulated?

Yet, before Long Da’s Heavenly Mandate Divine Curse, these accumulations began to collapse like a sandcastle meeting the tide.

Long Da raised his left hand again, pressing down into the void.

”Great Luo Heaven Five Elements Law Seal.”

Five chains of Law extended from the void—Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth—the Five Elements generating and overcoming each other, transforming into five chains that sealed Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu’s Dantian, Sea of Consciousness, Meridians, Divine Soul, and Physical Body one by one.

Once the Seal was formed, the magic power within Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu could no longer circulate.

The Solar True Fire dissipating from his body was completely extinguished; he couldn’t even self-detonate.

The five chains pierced through his body, pinning him in the void, unable to move.

Even now, Long Da did not stop.

He took a deep breath, pressed his palms together, and then slowly pulled them apart.

Between his palms, a vortex of Chaos emerged.

Within that vortex, the power of the Five Elements generated and destroyed each other, all things returned to ruins, and all Daos sank.

This was the supreme Divine Ability that True Body Gu Yan had comprehended while at the Immortal King Realm—the ”Great Luo Heaven Five Elements Myriad Daos Returning to Ruins True Interpretation.”

This move did not Seal, did not kill, did not break, and did not destroy.

Its essence was to return all existence to nothingness.

The Chaos vortex in Long Da’s palm spun faster and faster, and a terrifying devouring force surged from it, enveloping Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu’s entire body.

The Demon Emperor’s Physical Body began to disintegrate.

First the feathers, each one turning into flying ash.

Then the flesh and blood, peeling away and dissipating inch by inch.

The golden blood had not yet flowed out before it was completely swallowed by the Chaos vortex.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu let out a final roar, filled with despair and unwillingness.

However, Long Da’s combo was not yet finished!

Under the influence of the Five Elements Returning to Ruins power, Long Da formed a sword Seal with his hand, and an invisible Sword Intent condensed in the void.

The second form of the Sentient Equality Sword Intent—the ”Immortal Slaying Style.”

This Sword Intent did not care about sharpness, nor did it distinguish between strong and weak; it only cared about equality.

Whether you were a Mortal or an Immortal Emperor, before this sword, all could be slain.

The Sword Intent was silent and traceless, penetrating the Chaos vortex of the Five Elements Returning to Ruins, striking into the depths of the Demon Emperor’s Divine Soul.

This strike completely severed all of Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu’s life force.

From this moment on, Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu would no longer exist in the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds.

The past, present, and future, all time and space, every trace of him would be completely wiped clean by this sword.

This entire combo of Long Da’s, starting with the Five Elements Great Luo Heaven Immortal Kingdom in Palm and finishing with the Immortal Slaying Style, consisted of seven Divine Abilities executed almost simultaneously, flowing like clouds and water, natural and perfect.

Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu’s true form, the Three-Legged Golden Crow, completely dissipated within the Chaos vortex.

Not even a single feather remained.

Only a pitch-black token and a damaged sun wheel fell out from the void.

The heaven-suppressing order was a Medium Grade Innate Spirit Treasure.

It had been impacted by the power of the Five Elements Myriad Daos Returning to Ruins True Interpretation, and its surface was covered in fine cracks.

Its spiritual light was dim, its spirituality greatly damaged, but at least it hadn’t completely shattered.

At this moment, sensing that its master was dead, it instinctively wanted to tear through the void and escape.

But how could Long Da let it have its way?

With a casual wave, an irresistible suction force pulled the heaven-suppressing order over, and he tucked it into his sleeve.

The other item, the Heaven-Burning Sun Wheel, did not have such good Luck.

This top-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure, under the dual ravages of the Solar True Fire’s backlash and the power of Returning to Ruins, had already shattered into seven or eight pieces, losing all its spirituality.

Long Da glanced at it, but still gathered the fragments.

He would smelt them when he got back; at least he could extract some Materials.

Thus, the Lord of the Demon Court, the eternal Immortal Emperor, the Three-Legged Golden Crow, Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu, had fallen.

From the moment Long Da launched this entire combo to the moment the Demon Emperor completely vanished into ashes, it had taken no more than three breaths.

Three breaths.

The eight Immortal Emperors present had witnessed everything with their own eyes.

Cang Di stood with his mouth agape, the Earth-Covering Seal still hovering above his head.

Emperor Haotian fared no better; the divine light of the Haotian Imperial Seal was condensed but unreleased, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

An Immortal Emperor—no less an old-school Immortal Emperor like the Lord of the Demon Court—had been beaten to the point where not even dregs remained within three breaths.

For a moment, the eight Immortal Emperors looked at each other, none of them able to speak.

Furthermore, once Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu died, the hundred strands of Solar True Fire from the Sun Star, which he had forcibly pulled down using the Heaven-Burning Sun Wheel and his Origin essence blood, instantly lost their restraint and sought to return to the Sun Star.

Seeing this, how could Long Da let such a treasure slip away for nothing?

This item was perfect for refining Spirit Medicine and smelting supreme treasures, so he immediately activated the chaos set to completely imprison, pack up, and intercept the entire expanse of True Fire.

The surrounding Immortal Emperors witnessed this operation and were momentarily speechless.

Long Da put away his Spirit Treasures, stood with his hands behind his back on Yao Xuan’s back, and swept his gaze over the faces of the eight Immortal Emperors one by one.

His expression was calm and composed; for him, the act of slaying the Demon Emperor and intercepting the Solar True Fire was nothing.

And indeed, this was the case.

True Body Gu Yan was at the first cycle of the Immortal Emperor realm, and at full power, he could instantly kill an expert at the Great Luo Unity realm.

Although Long Da was only a Self Body Incarnation, he had synchronized 70% of the main body’s cultivation and combat power.

70% was naturally more than enough to deal with Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu, who had been eroded by tribulation qi, was delirious, and had been severely injured by the joint efforts of Cang Di and Emperor Haotian.

Not to mention that he also brought five top-grade Acquired Spirit Treasures and was wearing the chaos set.

If he still couldn’t win, that would be a joke.

Long Da was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: ”The Demon Emperor has been executed, and the threat of the Solar True Fire from the Sun Star has been resolved. Fellow Daoists, you may disperse.”

Cang Di came back to his senses and bowed, saying: ”Fellow Daoist Long Da, your Divine Ability is peerless; this Emperor admires you. However... regarding the fall of Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu, how will the aftermath be handled?”

He wasn’t being polite; he was truly shaken.

Originally, he and Emperor Haotian had joined forces, intending to take advantage of the Buddhist sect being unable to spare attention, to kill Sacred Heavenly Lord Jin Yu two-on-one, and then divide up the Demon Court’s territory.

As a result, they had fought for ninety-nine days and hadn’t taken him down.

Long Da arrived, and it was solved in three breaths.

This gap was so large it was despair-inducing.

What made Cang Di even more uneasy was, when did a Heavenly Court emerge in the Immortal Realm?

The Lord of the Heavenly Court, Long Da—with such combat power, such Spirit Treasures, and such Divine Abilities, yet no one had known of him before.

What did this mean?

It meant that this person was either an old monster who had been living in seclusion, or a force from outside the Immortal Realm.

Regardless of which possibility it was, it was not good news for the Immortal Court.

Emperor Haotian’s thoughts were also turning rapidly, but he remained calm on the surface, following suit and bowing: ”Fellow Daoist Long Da, your actions today have resolved an urgent crisis for the Immortal Realm; on behalf of the Divine Court, Haotian thanks you.”

Long Da glanced at him but did not respond.

Thanks?

What are you thanking for?

Just now, you and Cang Di fought the Demon Emperor to seize territory, not for the safety of the Immortal Realm.

Now that the Demon Emperor is dead, you are likely both shocked and afraid, worried that the Heavenly Court will become the next Demon Court, and perhaps even harder to deal with than the Demon Court.

Long Da couldn’t be bothered to expose the thoughts of these old foxes, and said indifferently: ”The Demon Court is now leaderless; I will handle the affairs of its subordinate Immortal Domains myself.”

This was said without any politeness.

The implication: The Demon Court’s territory belongs to the Heavenly Court.

None of you should covet it.

Cang Di’s expression changed slightly, his lips moved, but in the end, he said nothing.

The person had just instantly killed an Immortal Emperor; trying to compete with Long Da for territory right now would just be asking for trouble, wouldn’t it?

He glanced at Emperor Haotian, the two exchanged a look, and they each put away their Spirit Treasures.

Daoist Lord Jiuyin was more carefree, bowing with a smile: ”Fellow Daoist Long Da, I am Jiuyin of the Kunlun Sect. If you have any leisure time in the future, you are welcome to come to Kunlun Mountain to drink tea and discuss the Dao.”
