Invincible Starts From Dao Fruit-Chapter 719 - 517: The Stage Is Yours! Show Us What You’ve Got!
With Zhou Yan's entire set of Divine Skills, plus his ghost-like abilities, if he truly gets his hands on those two Immortal Corpses, even if Immortal Techniques were to fly chaotically, they'd still be hard-pressed to snatch them back.
"We must not let him succeed!"
Emperor Bai Zhu said in a deep voice, sending a message to the three Great Immortals of the Eternal Hall: "The Ziyang Immortal Mansion has already used all three of its Immortal Techniques, fellow Daoists, if Zhou Yan isn't stopped now, it'll be too late for regrets!"
The three Immortals didn't need Emperor Bai Zhu's reminder or urging.
They too were paying close attention, and they saw clearly that Zhou Yan had already covered half the distance in the Immortal Corpse Heaven. Judging from his progress so far, it's estimated he would get to the two Immortal Corpses in about seven or eight more days.
But Zhou Yan is cunning.
Who dares to guarantee he's not holding something back?
What if he has some powerful technique hidden, and when it looks like it'll take another seven or eight days to reach the two Immortal Corpses, he suddenly rushes forward and grabs the Immortal Corpses in one move?
This is not impossible!
But—
"Daoist Bai Zhu, don't deceive us. Surely the Ziyang Immortal Mansion has more than just three Immortal Techniques and can use more than three times!"
Swish!
Mid-sentence, Immortal Qingxu was swept into the Daluo Heavenly Sleeve by Chen Jichuan.
On the side.
Golden Sun Immortal continued, "If fellow Daoist is worried about Zhou Yan taking the Immortal Corpses, you can stop him. The three of us are not in a hurry."
Immortal Techniques!
These are strategic methods!
Whether it's the three Great Immortals of the Eternal Hall or the three Emperor Lords of the Ziyang Immortal Mansion, neither wants to use them lightly.
The Ziyang Immortal Mansion pointed to the Eternal Hall.
The Eternal Hall pointed to the Ziyang Immortal Mansion.
Everyone is well aware.
But no one wants to be the sucker.
Now, it depends on who loses patience first and makes a compromise.
And if neither side compromises, both preferring to hold their ground, always reluctant to use Immortal Techniques, they'll watch as Chen Jichuan approaches and takes the Immortal Corpses.
And Chen Jichuan would die of laughter.
Unfortunately, such good fortune does not come to pass.
After another two days.
Seeing Chen Jichuan still advancing continuously within Immortal Corpse Heaven and the Eternal Hall unmoved, Emperor Bai Zhu cursed inwardly, but then transmitted his voice: "Fine! This time the Ziyang Immortal Mansion will stop Zhou Yan. But next time, if the Eternal Hall is unwilling to act, then let Zhou Yan take the Immortal Corpses!"
Emperor Bai Zhu took a step back proactively.
But he is no fool.
This time he will employ the Immortal Technique first, and next time it must be the Eternal Hall's turn.
If the Eternal Hall is unwilling, he'd rather break it off completely.
"Alright—"
Golden Sun Immortal understood Emperor Bai Zhu's intention and agreed.
The next moment.
Swish!
He was also swept into the 'Daluo Heavenly Sleeve'.
At that moment, Emperor Bai Zhu did not wait any longer; he waited for Emperor Jiao Qi to break out of the Daluo Heavenly Sleeve, then immediately said: "Quickly cast 'Prison Immortal Skill'!"
"Now?"
Emperor Jiao Qi looked towards Immortal Corpse Heaven upon hearing this, quickly understanding upon seeing Zhou Yan's position.
He did not hesitate.
Taking a step forward, Divine Skills activated, chanting the true name, then 'Prison Immortal Skill' descended once more.
"Prison Immortal Skill!"
The three Immortals of the Eternal Hall watched as Emperor Jiao Qi performed the Immortal Technique, wary at heart.
Although they were united to deal with Zhou Yan, there wasn't much trust between them, and they couldn't rule out the possibility of the three Emperor Lords suddenly betraying them.
In any case, caution is paramount.
On this side.
"It's this trick again!"
Chen Jichuan smiled.
This time he saw it clearly; he distinctly saw the actions of Emperor Jiao Qi when casting the Immortal Technique, saw him chant the true name, and immediately understood—
"As expected, it's leveraging the power of Ancient Immortals!"
He once entered the 'Sky-reaching Mountain' and had taken the 'Cave Abyss Oath'. He had some understanding of this method of chanting the true names of Ancient Immortals.
Take a look.
Think about it.
He had already pieced together seventy to eighty percent of the Ziyang Immortal Mansion and the Eternal Hall's background, which allowed them to use Divine Skills beyond the Absolute Peak True Immortal level.
"I must see how many more times you can use it!"
Chen Jichuan remained neither angry nor annoyed nor regretful.
This time.
Without Golden Sun Immortal's 'Nine Yang Immortal Skill' in cooperation, he was in no hurry to escape from 'Prison Immortal Skill'. Instead, he lingered longer here, relying on 'Insight' to continuously explore the details of this Immortal Skill, to discern the flaws of this skill.
After two hours.
Only then did Chen Jichuan, under the watchful eye of six Absolute Peak True Immortals, smile, lightly, and once again use the 'Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Great Movement' to casually leave.
Ziyang Immortal Mansion.
One less Immortal Technique.
...
Outside Immortal Corpse Heaven.
The six Absolutes fell silent once again.
Previously, they worried and guessed that Zhou Yan might withstand another Immortal Technique and evade it once more.
But upon truly witnessing it, they couldn't help but feel a bit unsatisfied in their hearts.
A bit suffocated.
A bit of despair.
Facing such a character, even the three Immortals and the three Emperor Lords were bewildered.
Fight?
They can't win!
Use a trump card?
The guy escapes easily!
What can they do about it?
"This impoverished Dao does not believe that Zhou Yan can truly ignore Immortal Techniques!"
The Immortal Qingxu looked serious as he spoke to the three Emperor Lords of Ziyang Immortal Mansion, "If Zhou Yan should return once more, let this impoverished Dao face him with Immortal Techniques. I'd like to see how many rounds Zhou Yan can endure!"
The Golden Sun Immortal and the Yulong Immortal had no objections.
In fact,
The current situation leaves no choice but to engage Zhou Yan in attrition, to see who shows weakness first.
They also hope to discern Zhou Yan's flaws during this process.
But after two instances, with Immortal Techniques employed multiple times, they have yet to find any. The six Absolute Peaks do not hold great hope, only wishing Zhou Yan fears depletion like them, yet cannot outlast them.
But they know very well their own situation.
Immortal Techniques are drawn upon the true names of Ancient Immortals who have fallen or left the Immortal Fall Battlefield, invoking their might to exhibit powers surpassing Divine Skills and Absolute Peak True Immortals.
However, this might is limited and cannot be used without restraint.
The 'Prison Immortal Skill' relies on the might of 'Ji Fu Immortal's' true name, but on the 'Immortal Fall Battlefield', within a cycle of eight million years, it can be used at most three times.
It has already been used twice now.
Similarly, Emperor Bai Zhu's 'Ten Days Supreme Heart Demon True Spell Immortal Technique' can only be used twice.
All very limited.
Generally, if the opponent lacks Immortal Techniques, even a Peak True Immortal could be defeated and utterly obliterated by one or two Immortal Techniques.
But this time,
They suffered a major setback against Zhou Yan.
The Ziyang Immortal Mansion employed three Immortal Techniques four times, yet still couldn't best Zhou Yan.
This is too much of a loss!
However—
"It has come to this!"
"Continue on!"
The Immortal Qingxu looked at the three Emperor Lords.
Then,
The six Absolute Peak True Immortals moved, not waiting in place for Zhou Yan, but instead heading towards Immortal Corpse Heaven together.
Regardless, with Zhou Yan absent right now, they must try obtaining the two Immortal Corpses before Zhou Yan returns.
Yet, they clearly were too optimistic.
About a quarter of an hour later.
While the six concentrated on the Immortal Corpses in Immortal Corpse Heaven.
The heaven and earth.
A figure suddenly appeared.
All six Absolute Peaks sensed it and turned their heads.
They saw,
Zhou Yan, who had vanished as if evaporating, reappeared outside Immortal Corpse Heaven unscathed once again.
...
"Everyone."
"Zhou has returned."
Chen Jichuan, smiling softly, returned once more.
But this time, before he could declare war, before he could shout 'Fight joyously'.
The Six Immortals exchanged a glance, without a word—
"Fight as we must!"
And thus, another cycle commenced, repeating once more.
Half a day passed.
As Chen Jichuan was once again forced to use 'Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Great Movement'.
This time,
Eternal Hall, one less Immortal Technique!
...
One cycle.
Two cycles.
Three cycles.
One Immortal Technique.
Two Immortal Techniques.
Three Immortal Techniques.
Both sides raced against time, upon meeting they wasted no words, no pleasantries, directly to battle.
The Six Immortals employed Immortal Techniques.
Chen Jichuan went offline to evade.
Chen Jichuan came online.
The Six Immortals employed Immortal Techniques.
Chen Jichuan went offline again.
Thus repeatedly, tugging back and forth, Chen Jichuan was inwardly thrilled.
He employed 'Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Great Movement', which truly had no depletion, no cost at all. The only drawback was upon logging in again, due to Immortal Corpse Heaven's Yin Yang harmony, the inner talismans, prohibitions constantly evolved and transformed, rendering any progress—even if a mere quarter of an hour—reset to zero, requiring a restart.
But this cost is negligible, easily overlooked.
Whereas the Six Immortals' Immortal Techniques were definitively gone forever.
Continuing like this.
After eight cycles, and executing four more Immortal Techniques, Ziyang Immortal Mansion was truly exhausted, squeezed dry, nothing left.
Ziyang Immortal Mansion was the first to exit.
"Zhou Yan!"
"You can take the Immortal Corpses, we're leaving!"
Emperor Bai Zhu observed Zhou Yan's on-time appearance a quarter-hour later once more, and this time, no longer willing to fight, exchanged a glance with Emperor Jiao Qi and Emperor Lingchuan, then raised their escape light, fleeing to the cosmos.
They certainly did not truly leave.
But they were unwilling to continue meaningless struggles with Chen Jichuan here.
Not only the Three Emperor Lords.
The three Immortals of Eternal Hall glanced at Chen Jichuan, and also chorused, "Mr. Zhou, farewell!"
The six Absolute Peaks utterly submitted, no longer making futile attempts to stop.
The stage is vast, it's yours!
