I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Chapter 454: Crushing Lingxiao (2)

“Your teacher, a True Immortal from Heaven above, will not be slandered by you!”

Sun Changsheng’s anger soared. With a flash, he shattered the void and, in the next instant, a giant claw that propped up the sky burst forth from the broken space behind Huayangzi.

“Cut!”

Huayangzi’s brow shone brightly as the Seven Emotions Sword encircled the giant claw and sliced it cleanly at the root.

Sun Changsheng exclaimed, “What a treasure!”

His arm radiated a spiritual light, regenerating a new palm. The severed section that fell to the ground transformed into several monkey-shaped blood shadows, some soaring through the air, others burrowing into the earth, all rushing toward the Heavenly Court Righteous Gods who were presiding over the formation.

“Blood God Child!”

Huayangzi immediately recognized those clones as the second most notorious Divine Skills of Blood Devil Child.

Sun Changsheng felt that a few were not enough. He grabbed a handful of monkey fur from his body, blew on it lightly, and turned it into forty-eight thousand Blood God Children, who fearlessly and ferociously attacked the Righteous Gods.

In just a short moment, thousands of renowned Heavenly Court Righteous Gods had perished, and countless nameless celestial soldiers had died.

The Heavenly Court Righteous Gods could no longer maintain the demon-exterminating formation. They either fought against the Blood God Children or fled in panic. The Cultivation World’s millennium of peace had diminished the capability of cultivators to fight and kill each other by a great measure.

Many True Gods couldn’t concern themselves with besieging Sun Changsheng any longer. Instead, they cast spells to eradicate Blood God Children to prevent their own sect members from being wiped out.

The Blood God Children, sharing the same origin as Sun Changsheng, possessed indestructible bodies. Despite the True Gods’ efforts to annihilate them, they would recover instantly, as before.

For a moment, the Heavenly Court was thrown into chaos.

Seeing this scenario, Sun Changsheng excitedly scratched his ears and cheeks, laughing and clapping, “This is fun, so fun!”

“How dare you rampage, Blood Devil!”

A shout came from ten thousand miles away. The voice had barely faded when a figure had already arrived. It was Shoushan Gong who had rushed over at top speed.

His gaze fell upon the chaotic Heavenly Court and, far from being angered, he was quite satisfied. The heavenly beings who had died today would take a thousand years to replace, and the calamity’s effect was better than expected.

All that was needed was to subdue Sun Changsheng, and Dongsheng Divine Continent could enjoy a thousand years of peace!

“Amitabha!”

Infinite Buddha light drifted in from the west, the entire sky turning golden, as Dajue Arhat sat within the light, his face showing compassion.

“Sun Daoist friend, I’ve long admired you!”

Another hearty voice sounded, and Ming Zhenzi appeared out of nowhere, with three Copper Coins orbiting his body as if they were living things.

Sun Changsheng glared coldly, his body shrinking continuously to four feet, his Mana condensing to the extreme.

“I am honored that the presence of the likes of me could draw out Immortals from all three religions. Even if I were to die today, I would have no regrets!”

“Your strength is indeed earth-shattering and peerless; not just the three of us, but even three more would have a hard time slaying you.”

Ming Zhenzi stroked his beard and smiled, “Since the Heavenly Court is already in disarray, why don’t you just leave and find a Spiritual Mountain Blessed Land to cultivate in secret?”

“Amitabha!”

Dajue Arhat interrupted and said, “This Demon Head is ruthless and slaughters Heavenly Court Righteous Gods. How can we let him leave?”

Shoushan Gong declared, “This wretch is the reincarnation of Blood Devil Child. Once he leaves the Heavenly Court, he will certainly use billions of living beings to refine the Blood Sea, igniting a great calamity across the continent!”

Ming Zhenzi shook his head, “According to my divination, Sun Daoist friend is not the Blood Devil.”

“Indeed, I am not the Blood Devil, but neither will I simply leave.”

Sun Changsheng bared his teeth, “My master once said that once you take action, you should not hold back. Otherwise, when you come up with a perfect strategy and come to kill me at my doorstep, it’ll be too late!”

“Arrogance!”

Shoushan Gong flung his sleeve, sending an overwhelming wave of Mana crashing forward.

Dajue Arhat’s face was compassionate, but his actions were the darkest. He cast spells invoking the Arhat’s Shèlì Relics and executed a soul-targeting secret technique aimed at Sun Changsheng’s soul.

Ming Zhenzi formed spell hand gestures, and the three Copper Coins turned into the sun, the moon, and the stars overhead, casting a Formation that shed divine light.

As the Immortals cast their spells, heaven and earth trembled.

What seemed to be effortless techniques were, in fact, executed with the greatest of ease, leaving no room for holding back.

The demons and ghosts that had originally been watching the battle from the ground hurriedly scrambled back into the heavenly prison at the sight of the three Immortals arriving, all of them activating the Formation and Prohibition of the eighteen layers of hell to withstand the residual waves of the battle.

The heavenly prison, once loathed to the bone, had now become a shelter.

The True Gods striving to annihilate Blood God Children suddenly found them dissipating on their own, their traces no longer to be found.

Sun Changsheng retracted the forty-eight thousand Blood God Children, his Mana growing incrementally. Merely standing in place, he was surrounded by layers of space that seemed to be repelling his existence.

“No wonder the Blood Devil Child chose to break through to True Demon in the Mortal World,”

Having devoured tens of thousands of Righteous Gods, Sun Changsheng’s mana surged once more, leading to a clear understanding of the Blood Devil Child’s foolish actions.

Through cultivating the Blood Sea Scripture and accumulating karmic energy, the Blood Devil Child was completely cut off from the Immortal Realm. To ascend, he only had two choices: one was to accumulate merit to eliminate the karmic energy, and the other was to forcefully break through the Immortal Realm barrier.

Even with a lifespan of five thousand years granted by returning to the void, even if one could barely extend it to over ten thousand, it was still difficult to offset the Blood Devil’s karmic force.

Therefore, the only path left was the second one, where a True Immortal descending to the mortal plane would forcibly break through the barriers of the two realms, so theoretically, a True Demon could also forcefully ascend.

“Let’s speak of this matter later. Regardless of how much karmic energy I accumulate, I must first destroy this Heavenly Court!”

Sun Changsheng watched as three terrifying divine lights fell onto him, allowing his body to shatter without resistance. His obliterated flesh drifted in the air, splitting from one into two, and two into three, infinitely reborn.

A vast and boundless Sea of Blood appeared above the firmament.

The Heavenly Prison nourished Sun Changsheng with blood essence from a hundred thousand monsters and ghosts over decades, creating a Sea of Blood even more expansive than that of the Blood Devil Child.

All of a sudden,

A massive face emerged from within the Sea of Blood, with sharp monkey-like features and eyes gleaming red.

“Today, the Heavenly Court falls!”

As his words ended, the Sea of Blood churned up tumultuous waves, turning into a dense rain of blood falling from the sky.

The Spiritual Mountain Blessed Land, painstakingly maintained by the Heavenly Court for a thousand years, withered and desolated in the corrosion of the blood rain within moments. The heavily guarded palaces turned into ruins, leaving only a few True God caverns barely sustaining.

The Righteous Gods with formidable mana could still withstand, but those less powerful were reduced to pools of blood in an instant.

“Immeasurable Heavenly Honored One! Our fellow cultivator has completely turned to demonhood!”

Ming Zhenzi sighed and waved his hand, sending two divine lights soaring into the sky.

The divine lights twisted like serpents, solidifying into two Spiritual Dragons.

Shòushān Gōng and Dajue Arhat acted simultaneously, their six Spiritual Dragons connecting head to tail, seemingly palm-sized yet enclosing the Sea of Blood entirely.

No matter how the Sea of Blood roiled, the blood and rainwater could not break through the ring of six dragons.

The three Immortal cultivators channeled their mana to the extreme, sending strands of spirit light into the ring, completely confining Sun Changsheng.

“Is this really your last resort? Merely a few dragon corpses, you disappoint me!” said Sun Changsheng, not only unafraid but openly mocking, “Each of you cherishes your life, fearing injury and eager for ascension. I am different… for I have no hope of ascending anyway.”
