The Quest for Immortality

”Impossible...”

Bai Zixi clenched her sword in her delicate hands and plunged it forcefully toward her heart.

This strike, a sword Qi sweeping across, was one made with the resolve to die, yet it halted a hair’s breadth from her chest.

A layer of golden light suddenly appeared on Bai Zixi’s body.

Between her eyebrows, a bright and sacred ”Rune” took shape.

This Rune, crafted by the Heaven Void Ancestor himself, was the Heaven-reaching Rune, the special Eternal Life Rune, explicitly created to ensure that a noble clan’s direct descendants would not meet death—

The personal Eternal Life Rune!

All the Demon Cultivators in attendance wore expressions of utter shock.

They were as pale as death, struggling to flee for their lives, yet behind Bai Zixi, a colossal Golden Body Dharma Phase had already manifested.

It was an elder with an unclear face.

But the spiritual power emanating from him flowed like a vast ocean, his golden luminance obscuring the sun and blanketing the sky!

Refining God and Returning to the Void, Heaven Void Dharma Phase!

Between heaven and earth, as if the solemn sounds of the Great Dao were resonating, a commanding and trembling voice belted out:

”Who dares to bully my descendant?”

The Dharma Phase protected Bai Zixi, following her intentions.

The light in Bai Zixi’s eyes shifted, and with a delicate finger-pointing forward, she spoke in a crisp voice:

”Kill!”

In that moment, more than ten Golden Core Great Demon Cultivators, all of whom were once dominant in their own right, now trembled all over, terrified as if they were mere ants.

The Taoist with half his face scorched wished more than anything to tear his own mouth to pieces.

”Prophetic words!”

”I had just finished speaking, and damn it, I really have witnessed the Eternal Life Rune!”

”Why the hell is my mouth so cheap?!”

In a life and death crisis, hanging by a thread.

The assembly of Golden Core Demon Cultivators scattered like birds and beasts, desperately running for their lives, but they could not escape the grasp of the Dharma Phase. ṘÄＮＯ𝐛ЁŠ

With Bai Zixi’s clear and piercing command ”Kill!”, the Dharma Phase, majestic and aloof, pointed a finger.

A Golden Core Demon Cultivator, without any warning, instantly exploded to death!

The other Demon Cultivators were even more terrified, their souls nearly scattering!

Then the Dharma Phase pointed again, another Demon Cultivator exploded and died, and with another pointed finger, yet another Cultivator met their end, turning into pools of blood mist.

In a brief moment, five consecutive Golden Core Demon Cultivators had been violently killed, and then dark clouds gathered on the horizon, a terrifying fluctuation approaching.

Bai Zixi’s eyes held a hint of regret.

But Mo Hua’s heart trembled.

Was this... the Heavenly Dao Thunder Punishment?

Dark clouds coalesced, and a crimson thunderbolt descended from the sky, arriving in an instant, erasing the Golden Body Dharma Phase without leaving a trace.

The Dharma Phase of the Heaven Void Realm had already exceeded the domain limitations of the Third-Grade State Boundary of the Heavenly Dao.

Naturally, it could not escape the fate of being eradicated by the thunder punishment.

All this happened in a flash, in the blink of an eye.

The Dharma Phase appeared, and within a few moments, it had slain five Golden Core Great Demon Cultivators!

And in just a short span of time, it was wiped out by the thunder punishment.

Mo Hua only saw the appearance of the Dharma Phase, the Demon Cultivators exploding, the thunder punishment descending, and then disappearing.

But this time, the thunder punishment did not strike him.

So in the blink of an eye, he had no time to observe closely, nor did he see any Formation Patterns, only shaken by that familiar and terrifying Power of Silence Annihilation of the Grand Dao.

It truly seemed capable of eradicating everything...

Even the Dharma Phase was no exception.

At this moment, the mountains were deathly quiet.

Nobody had expected that Bai Zixi would actually be able, and indeed dare, to trigger her personal Eternal Life Rune on her own!

That was the Eternal Life Rune, wasn’t it?!

The Saint Heir was far enough away to be unaffected, but his heart was a mix of shock and anger.

This girl, how dare she?!

Five Golden Core Demon Cultivators, instantly killed! How was he supposed to explain this upon his return?

The Saint Heir’s expression was furious as he looked towards Bai Zixi, but as he did, he suddenly froze.

Triggered by her personal Eternal Life Rune, Bai Zixi’s Yi Rong had faded away, revealing her true appearance.

Skin like creamy jade, eyes like shining stars.

Despite her young age, her face was devastatingly beautiful and flawless, with skin like frost and bones made of jade, her gaze as cold and clear as ice and snow, possessing an extraordinary grace and splendor.

Everyone present was left breathless, not daring to breathe.

They even felt a sense of shame in comparison.

The Demon Path’s Saint Heir was left speechless.

He was himself a handsome man and had seen many beautiful women.

But in his life, he had never before seen someone so unbelievably beautiful, so breathtaking.

And it wasn’t just her beauty.

That chilling demeanor, the courage to disregard life and death, the resolute determination, combined with her stunning beauty and the cold clearness of her icy gaze, all melded together...

The Saint Heir felt his heart tremble and couldn’t help but shudder.

But soon after, his expression turned icy cold again.

He saw Mo Hua, whom Bai Zixi was protecting behind her, the remnants of the golden light of the Eternal Life Rune draped over both of them, their eyes conveying mutual understanding, like a perfect pair of golden boy and jade girl.

For some reason, a bitter jealousy welled up in his heart.

”That brat, he must be captured, and then, he must die!”

Jealousy brought the Saint Heir back to his senses.

Of the ten-plus Golden Core Demon Cultivators, now five were dead, leaving eight remaining.

Though the losses were heavy, it was enough!

They now had no power to resist, and as long as that brat was captured, not only would he have a bargaining chip against Mr. Zhuang, but even...

That young girl...

The Saint Heir’s heart couldn’t help but race.

But then, just a moment later, he suddenly sensed something amiss, feeling another presence near him.

The Saint Heir turned his head and saw a young man in white with starry eyes and eyebrows shaped like swords standing beside him.

It was Bai Zisheng.

Somehow, Bai Zisheng had taken advantage of his moment of distraction and approached unnoticed.

He held a dagger, without any hesitation, aimed at his own heart, and venomously said:

”Die, useless Saint Heir!”

The Saint Heir’s calculations came to an abrupt halt, and immense terror surfaced in his eyes once again.

The dagger stopped in front of Bai Zisheng’s chest as the golden light flared brightly.

Another Eternal Life Rune appeared.

Another vast surge of golden spiritual power unfolded from Dali Mountain, piercing the heavens and shaking the earth.

Another Golden Body Dharma Phase materialized between heaven and earth.
