Everlasting Immortal Firmament

Kong Xuan had fallen under mind control in the blink of an eye.

Gu Hai and the Unborn Man were horror-struck. This mind control was outrageously evil. No wonder it was one of the shaman race’s five main lines of inheritance.

Kong Xuan, the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm.

Houqing, the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm.

Mao Tianyun, perhaps it had broken through, also the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm.

Gu Hai naturally knew Dahong was a subject of Ji Dihong. What Gu Hai had not expected was Dahong himself was also at the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm.

Now, four consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators turned their chilling glares towards Gu Hai and the Unborn Man.

Outside assistance was out of the question. Gu Hai could only hope that Long Wanqing would remain unharmed.

“Master, they want Long Wanyu. One is her father, and the other is her brother-in-law,” explained Houqing.

“Oh? They want this woman?” Dahong asked in surprise, looking at Long Wanyu atop the golden dragon.

The Immortal Origin, the golden dragon, Long Wanyu. Of all these, Dahong valued Long Wanyu the least. What use could this girl be?

“That’s right. We only want her. Give her to us, and we’ll retreat,” the Unborn Man said in a deep voice, worried that Dahong might lash out and hurt Long Wanyu.

“Dahong, you can have everything within this palace. We only wish to take Long Wanyu away,” Gu Hai added.

“Hah! Hahahaha! Gu Hai, you care so much for your sister-in-law. Do you think I’d give Long Wanyu to you now? What a joke!” Dahong laughed coldly.

Dahong had initially wanted to kill Gu Hai. If Long Wanyu could make Gu Hai hesitate, it would be even better. Why would he let her go?

Gu Hai’s face fell.

The Unborn Man said gravely, “Leave them to me. You rescue Wanyu.”

Gu Hai looked at the Unborn Man in surprise. Does he really have the strength to deal with the four of them?

“Alright.” Gu Hai nodded in agreement.

The Unborn Man’s figure flashed, rushing into action.

“Haha! Unborn Man, you’re just a lifespan cultivator. Do you think you can match me? Do you think I don’t know your tricks?” Kong Xuan sneered, flicking his wrist to fling out a six-colored divine light.

Boom!

The six-colored divine light exploded on the Unborn Man. While he appeared to be blasted into a cloud of black fog, he mysteriously reappeared behind Kong Xuan in the next instant.

Kong Xuan’s expression changed. He cloaked his body with his energy, ensuring he would remain unharmed even if the Unborn Man managed to land a strike.

“The mysteries of a lifespan cultivator is not something you brutes can understand. As a lifespan cultivator, I seize the lifespan of others. Age!” The Unborn Man waved his hand at Kong Xuan.

Whoosh!

A gray light surged towards Kong Xuan and his group. Whatever the gray light touched aged rapidly. Some of Kong Xuan’s hair turned white in an instant.

“What?” Kong Xuan’s face fell. His figure flashed, and surging azure light soared into the sky.

The peacock domain appeared, and ten thousand Kong Xuan images manifested in an instant, ready to pounce on the Unborn Man.

“As a lifespan cultivator, I seize the lifespan of others. The flow of time never stops, flowing like light!” The Unborn Man formed a hand seal.

Boundless gray light burst forth from him, delineating a circle over three kilometers in diameter. The gray domain trapped Kong Xuan within. The ten thousand Kong Xuan clones simultaneously flung out six-colored divine lights.

Whoosh!

However, when the six-colored divine lights entered this gray domain, they immediately dissipated, along with the many clones. The Unborn Man lunged at Kong Xuan. Then the gray light swept over Kong Xuan, causing Kong Xuan’s hair to whiten further.

“Impossible! Break!” Kong Xuan roared, slamming a palm on the Unborn Man.

Boom!

The Unborn Man’s body exploded into a black fog. Yet, he reappeared behind Kong Xuan the very next moment, continuing to age Kong Xuan. The Unborn Man’s eerie lifespan Dao technique left the crowd utterly dumbfounded.

“Attack!” Dahong commanded.

“Meow!”

“Humph!”

Mao Tianyun and Houqing lunged at the Unborn Man together.

The Unborn Man maintained his flowing time domain, maneuvering among the three experts, evading their attacks while their hair gradually turned white.

“Something’s not right. Kong Xuan’s aging slowed down? Does that mean the more people in your flowing time domain, the weaker the effect?” Dahong muttered, his expression shifting. As he spoke, he prepared to lunge at the Unborn Man.

Just then, Gu Hai charged towards Long Wanyu.

“Hahaha! You nearly fooled us! You want Long Wanyu? No way in hell!” Dahong blocked Gu Hai’s path with a glare.

“Ninth Cycle!” Gu Hai shouted, slashing with his saber.

Dahong also drew a sword and swung at Gu Hai.

Boom!

The saber and the sword clashed, but no victor emerged.

“Gu Hai, His Holy Eminence ordered me to kill you. I didn’t expect you to be hard to kill. However, you were just lucky before; you have no chance now. Excellent Ninth Cycle, but it seems your Ninth Cycle is not comparable to my strength!” Dahong sneered.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Even though his injuries had not fully healed, Gu Hai did not care. He executed the Ninth Cycle with all his might, repeatedly clashing with Dahong. Even Heaven Cang Palace crumbled, revealing everything inside and stunning everyone outside.

Lady Houtu was holding Long Wanqing back, preventing her from acting. The Mosquito Daoist and the others could not even get close.

Although Gu Hai repeatedly clashed with Dahong, he avoided making eye contact with Dahong, which significantly reduced his combat effectiveness.

Long Wanyu, the golden dragon, and the Immortal Origin were shrouded in Gu Hai’s temporary Go Dao ritual array, so they were safe for the time being.

However, because Gu Hai could not look into Dahong’s eyes, he was at a disadvantage.

------

Far away:

The skeleton Gu Hai was dragging half a spider corpse, flying quickly as little skulls and malicious spirits in the black mist and blood mist kept gnawing on the corpse.

When the spider was finally devoured, a small transparent ball dropped out from inside it.

“A secret realm immortal firmament?” The skeleton Gu Hai picked it up, guessing what it was.

However, it was not the time to investigate; he quickly shot towards his true body in the distance, where the battle had reached a stalemate. He had to get there as soon as possible.

------

Where Gu Hai’s true body was, the battle had ground to a stalemate.

Suddenly, Long Wanyu’s body emanated a faint golden light.

Buzz!

The golden light twisted around Long Wanyu, then slowly entered the golden dragon.

“Ah! Ah! This is great! I finally have a body! Haha! Thank you, Long Wanyu, thank you. I no longer have to parasitize your body. You even gave me this golden dragon body. Sob! Sob! Sob!” The golden dragon made emotional sounds of utter gratitude.

“The demonic phantom?” Gu Hai’s countenance shifted.

Has the demonic phantom separated itself from Long Wanyu’s body?

Gu Hai could guess the reason, but Dahong remained in the dark. When the golden dragon suddenly spoke, Dahong’s face twisted with worry.

“Darn it! Is the little girl resurrecting the golden dragon?” Dahong shattered the Go Dao ritual array with his palm and reached for Long Wanyu.

“Oh no!” Gu Hai’s expression changed.

“Tenth Cycle!”

Gu Hai mustered all his strength and brought down his saber with a flourish. The ghostly image of a towering tree appeared behind him.

As the saber came down, Gu Hai’s back burst open, the wounds splattering fresh blood all over.

Executing the Ninth Cycle had been challenging, but using the Tenth Cycle was exponentially more terrifying. Gu Hai was still recovering from his injuries, so using the Tenth Cycle now reopened numerous bloody wounds in his body.

Despite the considerable decrease in power, the Tenth Cycle was still many times more powerful than the Ninth Cycle.

At that moment, Gu Hai had no choice but to swing his saber. If Dahong harmed Long Wanyu, it would be too late for regrets.

The moment the heaven-shaking manifested saber appeared, Dahong’s confidence in overpowering Gu Hai wavered. He gaped in horror.

“No!” Dahong screamed.

Boom!

A thunderous report rang out. It seemed as if the world had been split apart. The immense shock wave sent everyone present reeling.

Dahong tried to dodge but failed.

Bang!

The attack blew apart Dahong from the waist down, his flesh and blood splattering in a ghastly mess.

Blargh!

Dahong’s upper half spewed a mouthful of blood and was blasted hundreds of meters away, but he remained alive.

Gu Hai was also in a pitiful state. After delivering his blow, he was drained of all energy. His body was a mess of bloody wounds.

Perhaps due to the Immortal Origin, Long Wanyu remained unscathed.

The immense shock wave jolted her awake.

Long Wanyu slowly opened her eyes and saw Gu Hai spurting blood from all over his body.

“What? Brother-in-Law, what happened to you?” Long Wanyu screamed as she rushed towards him.

“Cough, cough, cough!” Covered in blood and coughing up blood, Gu Hai looked at Long Wanyu rushing towards him. His weak eyes revealed a glimmer of relief.

Dahong, now with only half his body left and vomiting blood, moved towards the Immortal Origin.

“Gu Hai, I will remember this blow. I will make you pay!” Dahong roared viciously.

Kong Xuan, Houqing, Mao Tianyun, and Lady Houtu tried to intervene but were blocked by the Unborn Man and Long Wanqing.

“Brother-in-Law, Brother-in-Law, don’t scare me. What happened to you?” Long Wanyu held the weakened Gu Hai, who was about to collapse. Her eyes filled with tears.

“Cough! Cough! Cough! I’m alright. I just need to rest and recover,” Gu Hai weakly reassured her.

Mending Heaven Energy poured into his injured body. The strain from this ordeal had almost shattered him.

The terrified Long Wanyu wanted to help Gu Hai.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the skeleton Gu Hai arrived.

“Who are you?” Long Wanyu’s expression changed, and she prepared to attack.

“Don’t attack. It’s my clone,” Gu Hai’s true body explained weakly.

“Clone?” Long Wanyu paused.

She then saw the skeleton Gu Hai channel a massive amount of power into Gu Hai’s body.

The injuries this time were too severe; even the Mending Heaven Energy was insufficient. Fortunately, the former Life Ender Saber could refine some energy to nourish Gu Hai after consuming blood and flesh.

Having consumed the Silken Web Heavenly Demon, the skeleton clone naturally had plenty of energy to restore Gu Hai.

Buzz!

Gu Hai immediately felt much better.

“Hahahaha! The Immortal Origin!” Dahong, severely injured with only half his body remaining, was ecstatic.

Just as Dahong was about to grab the Immortal Origin, a fair hand reached out and touched the Immortal Origin first.

“What?” Dahong looked at the unexpected hand in astonishment.

Buzz!

A man in a white robe had grabbed the Immortal Origin and seized it first.

“Who dares to steal my Immortal Origin!” Dahong screamed, his face fierce.

Looking up at the man in the white robe, Dahong recognized the man, and his expression changed dramatically.

“Essence Genesis?” Dahong inhaled sharply in surprise.

Essence Genesis looked at Dahong with some distaste. “This Immortal Origin doesn’t belong to you!”
