Chapter 1118 - Godfiend
Chapter 1118: Godfiend
“That’s right…” Fang Yuan answered honestly, wanting to see what cards Wu Yuan would play.
“You’ve become an Immortal, and judging by the power of your lightning tribulation, it’s obvious that you’ve comprehended top nomological laws… The top three core disciples of our Golden Soul Sect are inferior to you, and I’m afraid changes will happen regarding the sect master position. As long as you return to the sect with me, the sect master will surely be glad and will reward you greatly,” Elder Wu Yuan said with profound meaning.
“I have no intention of becoming the sect master…” Fang Yuan shook his head.
Although he was no longer afraid of Grand Unity Immortals, it did not mean that he could kill as he pleased in the Holy Lands.
The Golden Soul Sect was especially difficult to deal with, and a single Golden Mount Meru was trouble enough for him. It might even have existences at the Grand Supreme level.
Even if not, among this group of body refining fanatics, there were bound to be a few Grand Unity Immortals with a primordial treasure-level body, making them somewhat troublesome to kill.
“Looks like… Li Hun isn’t your real name either.” Wu Yuan felt slight pity. “Where is Qiu Tianfeng now?”
“Shouldn’t Elder have guessed?” Fang Yuan said with a joking expression. “Naturally, his soul has returned to chaos and his body has become dust…”
“…”
In any event, Qiu Tianfeng had been the eldest senior brother of the core disciples and the strongest contender for the sect master position. The news of his death was absolutely earthshaking for the Golden Soul Sect, and even Wu Yuan fell silent.
After a long pause, the Golden Soul Sect elder said, “This matter is too important. Anyway… Li Hun, if you still have any trace of friendship left for the Golden Soul Sect, please return to the sect with me to clear things up!”
“Apologies… I can’t do that!” Fang Yuan shook his head and turned to leave.
Elder Wu Yuan’s expression darkened. In the end, he chose to use force. “Stop!”
Whoosh!
His sleeves billowed, and an abyss-like Great Dao appeared in front of Fang Yuan, similar to a heavenly chasm.
“Grand Unity Immortal?” Fang Yuan extended his right hand, and a long saber overflowing with Immortal Qi appeared. “Light of Universe!”
His nomological laws of the Illusion Realm and of time had both reached perfection, and he had started comprehending their corresponding Great Daos, so the power of his fused nomological laws would naturally increase dramatically.
Not to mention, it was executed by a primordial treasure-level body with Immortal Qi.
Whoosh!
A bright, silver river of saber light crashed down, directly splitting the abyss, making Elder Wu Yuan’s face drain of color. “Impossible!”
He had never seen such a monstrous Immortal. With only basic mastery in the power of Great Daos, he could rival a Grand Unity Immortal!
“The seventh transference of the Nine Transference Undying Method?!”
He soon thought of the reason and looked at Fang Yuan with shock and fear.
It was rare for even the Grand Unity Immortals of the Golden Soul Sect, which was famed for body refining, to reach this realm.
“Li Hun… return with me. If the Elder Congress knows about this, they’ll definitely make you the sect master. The likes of Qiu Tianfeng can’t compare with you!” Immortal Wu Yuan’s eyes were fiery.
After witnessing Fang Yuan’s ‘value’, he would have abandoned Qiu Tianfeng even if he had not had any problems.
“Haha…” Fang Yuan laughed without replying and then suddenly charged at the Wu Yuan Great Dao.
Kaboom!
The power of the Great Dao fell on his primordial treasure-level body but only left shallow traces.
Swoosh!
A white mark streaked across the sky, shattering the condensed Great Dao power.
At the same time, the Undying Great Dao appeared behind him, and the traces recovered swiftly, as though the earlier injuries were merely an illusion.
“This is…” Elder Wu Yuan was shocked to the core, feeling that the combined shocks that he had experienced up until this point did not even compare to this one. “Undying Great Dao?! Didn’t he just transcend the Immortal tribulation?”
At the same time, he was horrified beyond measure.
A primordial treasure-level body had already made him helpless, being only able to suppress it but unable to destroy it. But with the Undying Great Dao as well, it would be almost impossible for him to die in this world.
“Li Hun… truly a terrifying existence…”
Grand Unity Immortal Wu Yuan did not dare to give chase as he looked thoughtfully in the direction that Fang Yuan left in.
…
Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect, Southern Region of the Great Sage Immortal World.
“Grand Unity Immortal Wan Xing is a blood descendant of the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect Patriarch… This patriarch that founded the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect must be a Grand Supreme Immortal. I wonder if he’s already died? Or perhaps roaming the chaos? Or maybe overseeing the sect?”
Fang Yuan arrived in the Southern Region and collected information related to the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect.
Each of these Holy Lands was a behemoth. There was at least one primordial treasure stabilizing the destiny of these sects, and there would be no shortage of Grand Unity Immortals either.
For example, the Golden Soul Sect. In addition to Golden Mount Meru, it had no less than fifteen Grand Unity Immortals inside the sect. The top ten cities each had a Grand Unity Immortal guarding it, and there would naturally be more within the sect.
It was even possible that Immortal Patriarchs at the Grand Supreme realm existed. Otherwise, it would be unable to sit firmly in the first position of the Great Sage Immortal World.
In comparison, the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect was considerably weaker, and there had been no news of the Founder Patriarch of the sect in a few millennia. Maybe he was traveling in the chaos and could not return.
“In other words… it most likely has nothing substantial inside?”
With a ruminating expression, Fang Yuan looked in the direction of the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect.
“A demon disaster lasts a full hundred years. I’m not in a hurry, so it’s best to wait for an opportunity.”
Even with his present strength, he was somewhat apprehensive about barging into a cultivation Holy Land, so he hid within the void and started monitoring the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect.
“Hmm… The Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect uses the system of having elders patrol for ten years before rotating. Eventually, Tai Xuan’s or Wan Xing’s turn will come…”
Fang Yuan sat cross-legged and waited silently.
This kind of cultivation was also beneficial for him. After all, his peak Immortal strength had all come from devouring spiritual materials, and it was a good time to consolidate his foundation.
Furthermore, with a primordial treasure-level body and a speck of the Void Great Dao, simply breathing Immortal Qi every day would allow him to obtain a significant amount of nourishment from the world and continue to increase his strength.
Nascent Soul cultivators had a thousand-year lifespan, and to Immortals, a few decades was but a fleeting moment.
In the blink of an eye, two decades passed.
Inside a void crack, Fang Yuan suddenly stood up. “This is…”
He looked not at the Heavenly Circuit Immortal Sect but at the sky!
At this moment, almost all of the almighties of the Wasteland World were frowning as they looked at the sky.
Chaos spread, and the world shivered.
Vaguely, Fang Yuan seemed to sense the sky tearing apart and a humongous, inexplicable existence barging into this world!
“It’s a Chaos Godfiend!” he said with a deep voice and sighed.
Chaos Godfiends had mastered at least one Connate Great Dao, and even the weakest could rival Netherheaven Demon Gods!
If such an existence was left to its own devices, the entire world might be destroyed!
Historically, Chaos Godfiends had only appeared during large-scale demon disasters, and they were extremely few in number.
“I wonder which Holy Land is so unlucky… Mount Mengyan declined due to its Grand Supreme Immortal and a Chaos Godfiend dying together…” Fang Yuan thought with some schadenfreude.
But the next moment, his smile froze.
Roar Roar!
Ow Ow!
Two more behemoths appeared at the world’s wound and followed closely behind to enter the world.
The Wasteland World quaked continuously, seemingly trying to put up a resistance, but it was ruthlessly suppressed.
“Three! Three Chaos Godfiends!” Fang Yuan took a deep breath. “Unless all the Holy Lands join forces… the world will be destroyed!”
Of course, this was still beneficial for him.
If the world perished, the Heavenly Dao would no longer exist, and he would then be able to hunt down the Abominable Lord.
“Why is this happening? Even the previous large-scale demon disasters only had at most one Chaos Godfiend…” Fang Yuan was slightly puzzled. “Was it due to the changes brought about by me and the Abominable Lord?”
The simultaneous invasion of three Chaos Godfiends was absolutely catastrophic!
After a brief moment of surprise, Fang Yuan’s eyes started shining. “Opportunity! The best opportunity! I’ll be able to find out how powerful the various cultivation Holy Lands actually are!”
The Holy Lands that could resist Chaos Godfiends were undoubtedly at the highest tier.
Even Grand Supreme Immortals would not be able to escape!
With the Chaos Godfiends’ level and standards, destroying Grand Unity Immortals would not give them any sense of accomplishment.
Only the death of existences at the same level could bring them closer to the natural source of the universe’s destruction!
Therefore, they would surely seek out the Holy Lands!
And this was Fang Yuan’s chance!
Whoosh!
Three meteors tore across the sky like lightning and smashed down.
The one in the middle crashed down directly where the Golden Soul Sect was.
“What a beast!”
Within the Golden Soul Sect, a powerful spiritual will flowed out.
In an explosion of golden lights, countless cultivators could see a towering golden giant walk out from the Founder’s Hall. With a beckon of his right hand, Golden Mount Meru shook off a large number of Golden Soul Sect disciples and revealed its true form. It landed on the giant’s hand and flew toward the meteor. “Seal!”
Bang!
An ear-piercing sonic boom swept in all directions. Even Immortals found their ears bleeding, making them feel uncomfortable.
“It’s Patriarch Golden Soul!” The Grand Unity Immortals were all very excited. “The old patriarch cultivated to the ninth transference of the Nine Transference Undying Method many years ago, and his body could be considered sacred. I’d never thought that we could catch him in action today!”
“The ninth transference isn’t the end!” Patriarch Golden Soul recalled Golden Mount Meru and had the spare time to explain to the Grand Unity Immortals. “I cultivated hard in seclusion and finally obtained heavenly enlightenment… Nine is the extreme number! However, there should be a tenth transference beyond the ninth, which is the truly heaven-defying level! If I manage to complete the tenth transference, then this Chaos Godfiend would be nothing.”
Bang!
The immense Godfiend surfaced from the pit in the ground.
Its scales were crimson, and its body appeared to be the embodiment of the Connate Destruction Great Dao. Disciples with low cultivation levels cried out in agony as their bodies burned with world-ending red flames at the mere sight of it!
