The First Immortal of Destiny

Whether it’s Jade Spring Fairy or Hollow Venerable, their power originates from their comprehension and mastery of the Heavenly Dao!

Their magic duel is not just a contest between Daoist body and mind, magic and martial arts, and magic treasures and skills, but also a confrontation between two different philosophies, two extraordinary Immortal Paths, making it difficult for ordinary people to comprehend its mysteries.

Even Shen Mo, not far from the Formless Realm, can only understand half of it, yet he still benefits immensely.

[You have observed the battle between Jade Spring Fairy and Hollow Venerable, and under the influence of the immortal charm, you have gained a new understanding of cultivation, and your cultivation level has increased.]

[You have observed... you have realized, and have gained a deeper understanding of cultivation methods and magic.]

[Through your continuous comprehension and realization, you have grasped the endless mysteries of the Mixed Yuan Qi Technique, Mixed Yuan Qi Technique experience +1120.]

[Through your continuous comprehension and realization, you have grasped the endless mysteries of the Reverse Dragon Curse, Reverse Dragon Curse experience +545.]

...

[Through your continuous comprehension and realization, you have grasped the endless mysteries of the All-Encompassing Sword Canon, All-Encompassing Sword Canon experience +750.]

[In the process, you unexpectedly gained a blessing, Destiny Point +1.]

Aside from the growth of his cultivation level, the cultivation methods and magic on Shen Mo’s body seemed to have taken a rich tonic, advancing to higher levels.

Chen Mengze also gained benefits, the aura of coldness around him becoming increasingly pure, his cultivation advancing significantly towards the late-stage of the Golden Core Realm, without even needing to consume the Elixir exchanged from the Taihua Mirror, as long as he fully absorbs his gains here, he can steadily enter the late-stage realm!

Shen Mo continued to look up, but unfortunately, the clash between the two True Immortals surpassed the passage of time and the limitations of space, he could not even clearly see the figures and fighting methods of the two, unable to gain further benefits.

Only through the fluctuations of the two extreme forces could he roughly infer which of Jade Spring Fairy and Hollow Venerable held the upper hand!

"Boom!"

Resplendent immortal light, divine phenomena continuously emerging and vanishing;

Two strong forces suddenly collided, making a thunderous roar as if the heavens and earth were resonating, the melody to which all beings submit!

Shen Mo sensed a breath that he felt extreme aversion and discomfort towards being suddenly weakened, presumably from Jade Spring Fairy injuring Hollow Venerable.

In the next moment, a scroll of mountains and rivers unfurled, sprinkling starlight, falling upon various places in the Corpse Mountain Range, and even casting a lot of starlight on the east, west, and north slopes of Five Dragon Mountain; subsequently, a myriad of demons was drawn into the scroll, clearly the countless demons Hollow Venerable had subdued over the years!

This time Shen Mo saw clearly, apart from the demons and monsters of the Corpse Mountain Range in the scroll, there were thirty-six Formless Realm experts hidden, over half were of the Thousands Insects Evil Corpse clan, followed in number by Class VI mutated Heavenly Demons, and the rest were various demons of different races, even two Formless Realm evil cultivators.

"Hollow... This Demon True Immortal, is about to set up the God Slaying Array?" Shen Mo couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, feeling a secret sweat for Jade Spring Fairy.

Not long ago, he had just sacrificially offered a million Soul Generals, driving the God Slaying Array to its utmost, directly killing the Formless Realm great demon Mingpeng, from this point of view, once not sparing any consumption by using blood sacrifice methods to activate, this Creation Array can indeed unleash terrifying power to reverse-slash higher realms!

And Hollow Venerable, suddenly launching a challenge now, definitely has some confidence.

Should Jade Spring Fairy be defeated and perish, Jade Spring Mountain will completely lose the protection of an Immortal, and he will have to retract Green Cloud Cave and flee elsewhere!

In the blink of an eye, a myriad of demons laid down the Creation Array in the scroll, Hollow Venerable did not test the array, but immediately used blood sacrifice methods at the moment the array took shape; in the thirty-six array cores, the Formless Realm Thousands Insects Evil Corpses, mutated Heavenly Demons, evil cultivators, and various demon races all ignited towering violent flames, almost burning through the sky!

Using blood sacrifice methods to activate the God Slaying Array, all creatures within the array, whether serving as array cores or forming the array base, will have their flesh, soul, and cultivation sacrificed.

Those Formless Realm Thousands Insects Evil Corpses, benefiting from being of the same clan as Hollow Venerable, even if their souls scatter, they can possibly resurrect from the nest;

But including the evil cultivators, mutated Heavenly Demons, and other demons, all "willingly" sacrificing everything to drive the array’s operation, indicating all have been controlled by Hollow Venerable using Spirit Control Talismans and similar methods!

The changes at the array core triggered the momentum of the entire God Slaying Array, within the array, the myriad of demons forming the array base were ignited by demonic flame, their flesh, soul, mana, and cultivation, all transformed into the purest primal Essence and Qi being drawn away by the array.

In an instant, this shocking array burst forth with unmatched terrifying momentum, a variety of unimaginable slaughter phenomena enveloping Jade Spring Fairy...

The world changed color, as if the entire universe was cloaked in demonic Qi and blood light.

Due to the ferocity of the attack, Shen Mo’s five senses were severely disturbed, even his mind was plunged into a brief silence, for a moment unable to hear any sound, see any color, or perceive the existence of anything!

It seemed a moment had passed, or perhaps days had gone by, before his mind recovered from the silence.

Only to see, above the Ninth Heaven, the scroll and myriad of demons composing the God Slaying Array had vanished, and the gentle and upright breath, belonging to Jade Spring Fairy, had swiftly weakened, until it completely sank into deathly silence.

Shen Mo’s eye twitched slightly, an ominous premonition rising in his heart!

"Jade Spring Fairy... she... lost?" Chen Mengze also awoke from the stillness of mind, whispering softly with a hint of bewilderment, surprise, and daze.

At this moment, Jade Spring Fairy’s breath was reborn from the void, in the blink of an eye restored to a vigorous state, then drew forth the stars from everywhere, causing Hollow Venerable’s breath to retreat repeatedly, on the verge of being further severely wounded or even slain!

But before Shen Mo and Chen Mengze could catch their breath, amid a series of "hissing" unusual sounds, a simple and ancient wooden stone fortress suddenly appeared above the Ninth Heaven.

This fortress was ten thousand zhang high, spanning several thousand li, shrouded in dense white mist, majestic like a gate to the heavens!

At the moment of its appearance, both Shen Mo and Chen Mengze’s expressions changed, this fortress was clearly the "Death Jaw" they, along with Heaven Sword Sect’s Jiang Yingying, Geng Zheng, Li Yu, Peng Chenshu, and others had seen in the Ghost Nation Ruins years ago, and several had entered it.

Aside from Li Yu who died within "Death Jaw", the other five gained benefits from it.

Shen Mo’s Three-Heads Six-Arms True Immortal Technique and the mutation of his Soul Refining Flag, as well as Chen Mengze’s Pure Jade Mantra, were obtained within "Death Jaw".

Different is, the "Death Jaw" appearing above the Ninth Heaven in the Corpse Mountain Range now is more grandiose compared to the one they encountered; but in other respects, whether material details or immortal charm breath, it is identical to the previous "Death Jaw"!
