Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant-Chapter 518: Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunder
Shen Xuan arranged an Illusion Array and Killing Array outside the cave mansion, yet it was merely a Tier Two Array.
It couldn’t stop the Core Formation Demon Sovereign.
Breaking through the array and entering was none other than the Demon Sovereign with Monstrous Pupils.
At this moment, the Demon Sovereign was somewhat disheveled, his aura chaotic, his white bone cloak torn in some places, and the ghostly blue flames in his eye sockets flickered uncertainly.
It was apparent he had just experienced a fierce battle.
"Fellow Daoist Wan Meng, Fellow Daoist Shen, come with me to save someone!"
The Demon Sovereign’s voice was urgent, tinged with dread.
"Blood Shadow and I were ambushed by a formidable foe, an extremely powerful Nether Cultivator, at least at the Late Stage Nether Pill!"
"Blood Shadow fought desperately as a rear guard, and I saw the signs here, speculating you were present, thus sought you out specially."
"I implore Fellow Daoist Wan Meng and Fellow Daoist Shen to urgently assist; it’ll be too late if we delay!"
The Demon Sovereign’s words were earnest, anxiety-ridden, and as he spoke, he moved closer to Shen Xuan.
However, just as he approached within two zhang of Shen Xuan.
His eyes emitted a blood-red light, aiming at Shen Xuan’s Sea of Consciousness.
Simultaneously, his right hand’s fingers along with the gesture of a sword pointed towards Shen Xuan.
The fingertips suddenly turned pitch-black and sharp, expanding several feet, carrying pitch-black demonic qi that could pierce the Divine Soul, directly stabbing towards Shen Xuan’s eyes.
In the sleeve of his left hand, a faint white light, almost imperceptible, flickered by.
A completely transparent white bone Soul Penetrating Needle silently aimed at Shen Xuan’s dantian.
A three-pronged attack.
It was apparent that the Demon Sovereign had been plotting for quite some time.
Shen Xuan seemed to have anticipated this.
At the very moment when the Demon Sovereign struck, his figure vanished like a phantom.
All the attacks fell on empty air.
The Demon Sovereign’s expression changed dramatically.
"Spatial Divine Power!"
The surprise attack failed, and the Demon Sovereign turned to escape.
How could he comprehend that such a mere Dharma Realm Body Refining Master, Late Stage Foundation Establishment Spirit Cultivator, might have realized Spatial Divine Power.
Actually, it was Shen Xuan employing the skill [Yin-Yang Walking].
In this space suffused with dense nether qi, the effect was particularly strong.
"You brought this upon yourself!"
In his ears, the Demon Sovereign heard Shen Xuan’s disdainful voice.
Before his eyes, countless Dark Ice Fish leaped from the void, transforming into one cyan ice wall after another, encircling him.
Shen Xuan emerged from the void.
"Poor acting."
Shen Xuan’s tone carried a hint of mockery.
"How did you know?"
The Demon Sovereign retracted his Escape Light, standing in place, his face full of vigilance.
Shen Xuan chuckled softly.
"Let me guess. You and Blood Shadow said you would enter this place together, searching for the inheritance and relics of the Bone Nether Demon Ancestor."
"For this purpose, you even brought a few direct disciples, ready to sacrifice them at any moment."
"Blood Shadow surely never suspected that, actually, your real target was Blood Shadow himself."
"If I’m not mistaken, Blood Shadow, his disciples, and the disciples you brought were all sacrificed to that monster!"
The Demon Sovereign’s face turned sinister, staring at Shen Xuan like a venomous snake.
He hadn’t anticipated that his supposedly subtle schemes would be seen through by the other side at a glance.
"If Wan Meng wasn’t following me, she’d also be sacrificed by you, right."
"Very well. Shen Xuan, since you’re aware of the Bone Nether Ancestor, yet dare to act brazenly, do you wish to die!"
Shen Xuan chuckled lightly.
"What Bone Nether Ancestor! Merely a wisp of remnant soul, a reincarnated Nether Cultivator."
"Monstrous Pupils, you shouldn’t have acted against me."
"If you hadn’t acted, I would have feigned ignorance. Once we were outside, I might have even nodded in greeting."
"Now, do you think you can still survive?"
Demon Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Realm are generally stronger than Spirit Cultivators of the same level.
However, once reaching the Core Formation Realm.
They’re actually weaker than Spirit Cultivators of the same level.
The Demon Sovereign’s Divine Power was concentrated in his demon eyes.
After Shen Xuan mastered [Yin-Yang Walking], he could easily evade the Demon Sovereign’s Divine Power attacks.
Thus, the Demon Sovereign stood no chance before Shen Xuan.
At Shen Xuan’s mercy.
The ghostly flames in the Demon Sovereign’s eyes flared wildly, knowing there was no room for negotiation, his ferocity completely erupting.
"Shen Xuan, since you seek death, I shall grant it!"
He roared furiously, the white bone cloak completely exploded, transforming into countless ghostly blue flame bone fragments, shooting towards Shen Xuan like pouring rain.
Each bone fragment bore a twisted ghostly face, emitting a piercing magical sound as it charged forward.
Simultaneously, the Demon Sovereign shouted in rage, his aura surging, the ghostly flames in his eye sockets suddenly extinguished, the surrounding space of a hundred zhang instantaneously turned black as ink.
An infernal domain capable of eradicating Divine Souls rapidly unfolded, enveloping Shen Xuan within.
This time, Shen Xuan did not escape into the void.
"Such a trivial spark, and you wish to emit radiance?"
He held back no longer, his aura and blood erupted thunderously.
After [Dragon Blood Boiling], a violent and destructive aura soared, the Divine Dragon’s malicious intent instantly dispelled the ghostly flame domain.
Behind him, appeared the Dharma Aspect of a Divine Dragon. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Coiling in the void, its scales and claws sharp, overlooking all beings.
Emitting an exceptionally potent True Dragon’s suppression.
The ghostly flame bone fragments flying towards him, along with the ghostly faces shrieking sharply, as they entered Shen Xuan’s Divine Dragon suppression domain, their speed drastically reduced, shattering and exploding amid wails.
"True Spirit Dharma Aspect!"
The Demon Sovereign was acutely shaken, filled with disbelief.
Only then did he witness the legendary True Spirit Dharma Aspect.
Not an illusion.
But as tangible as a True Dragon.
Shen Xuan’s body flickered.
[Yin-Yang Walking]!
He vanished into the void, and within merely a breath, emerged before the Demon Sovereign.
The Demon Sovereign dared not battle further, transforming into a blood light, attempting to flee.
The True Dragon Dharma Aspect unleashed a roar resounding throughout the Nether Realm, slightly stalling the blood light.
Subsequently, a golden stick flashed into existence above the Demon Sovereign’s head, descending from mid-air.
"Boom!"
The golden stick struck true.
No demonic qi shield or protective talisman.
Under the immense force of the golden stick, they disintegrated upon contact.
The earth trembles, and demonic qi pervades.
Shen Xuan puts away the golden rod.
The Demon Lord with the demon eyes has turned into a pile of flesh and blood.
A few remnants of ghostly blue flames flickered a few times before extinguishing completely.
Shen Xuan waves his hand, capturing the Demon Pill from the heap of flesh and blood.
Then comes his Storage Pouch, the bone cloak, and the bone soul-killing needle.
"Not bad, the power is controlled just right."
Shen Xuan is quite satisfied with this strike.
The flesh body of a True Pill Demon Lord is far inferior to that of a True Pill True Master.
With one strike, the flesh body bursts.
No matter how mysterious his magic was, the flesh body couldn’t withstand the golden rod, leaving only a path to death.
Shen Xuan sits outside the cave mansion again.
The Divine Dragon Dharma Aspect behind him slowly dissipates.
He glances at the isolation barrier of the cave mansion, which is perfectly intact.
The sounds of his battle with the Demon Lord with the demon eyes should not have affected Li Ruyi, who is inside the cave mansion impacting the Core Formation.
This is also the reason he struck decisively with a killing blow.
No time to waste on the Demon Lord with the demon eyes.
Beside him, the Demon Lord Wan Meng holds her mouth, her bright eyes widened in shock, looking at Shen Xuan.
She knows Shen Xuan is very strong.
However, he killed the Demon Lord with the demon eyes in just over ten breaths.
This is too strong!
"Fellow Daoist Wan Meng, don’t be too hasty. These demon creatures are of no use to me, I will trade them with you after we leave."
Shen Xuan said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the Demon Lord Wan Meng smiled sweetly.
Joyfully, she sat next to Shen Xuan.
...
The following days were calm and peaceful.
Above the cave mansion, celestial phenomena persisted, with the continuous convergence of cold nether qi pouring into the cave mansion.
After several days.
The cold nether qi in the sky formed clouds and mists, continuously flowing into the cave mansion.
Such phenomena far surpass those of Zhuang Xue Qin.
Shen Xuan pondered silently, Li Ruyi has a great chance of achieving a True Pill.
The Demon Lord Wan Meng occasionally glanced at the celestial phenomena above the cave mansion.
"Shen Xuan, can Fellow Daoist Li condense a True Pill?"
"Don’t you have pill condensing experience?"
Shen Xuan asked.
"My pill is a Demon Pill, different from Fellow Daoist Li’s Nether Pill."
A few more days passed.
Suddenly, a thundercloud appeared above the cave mansion.
"Huh?"
The Demon Lord Wan Meng’s face showed surprise.
"This is the Heavenly Dao’s refusal, the descending Divine Thunder to obliterate the breakthrough cultivator!"
Shen Xuan sighed lightly.
He summons the Purple Gold True Water Seal, sending out ten thousand rays of seal light to cover the cave mansion.
"Shen Xuan indeed has some affection for Li Ruyi!"
The Demon Lord Wan Meng felt a wave of sourness in her heart.
An hour later.
The sky outside the cave mansion was pressed by endless thunderclouds.
Lightning flickered like giant snakes within the thunderclouds, converging into a sea of destructive thunder.
The majestic heavenly might made even the Demon Lord Wan Meng tremble.
The targets of these Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunders were precisely Li Ruyi, who was about to condense the Soul Pill.
At this moment, Shen Xuan soared into the sky, standing in front of the thundercloud above the cave mansion.
Facing the impending Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunder, Shen Xuan’s face was calm, completely without fear.
With a low shout, Shen Xuan’s body instantly turned pure gold, solemnly majestic, standing sixteen feet tall, exuding a boundless aura of invulnerability.
This is the Late Stage of the Dharma Realm, the sixteen-foot Golden Body.
With a thought, Shen Xuan covered himself with a strangely shaped Thunder-Resistant Treasure Robe.
In the Dantian, a nine-colored treasure lotus splendidly bloomed, the refined Ice Spiritual Power circulated throughout his body, the Absolute Thunder Dao Body operating to the extreme.
Soon, the first Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunder tore through the clouds, emitting a violent and destructive aura, the dazzling thunder light completely engulfed Shen Xuan’s body.
Amongst the thunder arcs, Shen Xuan remained motionless.
Most of the power of the Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunder was blocked by the Thunder-Resistant Treasure Robe, transforming into countless dazzling electric lights, disappearing into nothingness.
A very small portion of the power invaded Shen Xuan’s body, without causing any harm.
The Demon Lord Wan Meng stood outside the cave mansion, looking out.
Only to see a golden figure standing atop the cave mansion, remaining unshakable despite being enveloped by thousands of thunders.
Gold and thunder intertwined, brilliant and dazzling.
"Boom rumble!"
One Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunder after another, powerful enough to destroy a Core Formation True Master.
By the time the ninth one came, the Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunder transformed into a blood-red Nine Heavens Thunder Calamity.
Shen Xuan stood above the cave mansion, stable as Mount Tai.
With the protection of the Thunder-Resistant Treasure Robe, the Absolute Thunder Dao Body that insulates, such speed of Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunder could not harm him.
After the nine Celestial Tribulation Divine Thunders.
The thundercloud dissipated.
At this time, the outside world’s cold nether qi gradually began to disperse.
Li Ruyi’s Core Formation phenomena started to disappear.
Shen Xuan descended, sitting cross-legged outside the cave mansion again.
Above the cave mansion, numerous rays of mist appeared in mid-air, faintly emitting celestial sounds.
A peculiar and strong aura drifted out from inside the cave mansion.
Shen Xuan’s face brightened with joy.
"Fellow Daoist Li has condensed the True Pill!"
The Demon Lord Wan Meng exclaimed.
Shen Xuan nodded slightly in agreement.
However, he still protected this place for a few more days.
Li Ruyi still needed a few days to stabilize his realm.
"I hope we can smoothly leave the Nether Realm space!"
Shen Xuan thought silently.
However, things rarely go as he wishes.
