Chapter 1286
[Immortal Realm Chapter] Calamity Star Resurrects, Forbidden Land Warning
In an instant, the person in the blood-red light suddenly sensed that something terrible was about to happen!
As an ancient relic of the Blood Path Era, I have experienced too many storms and witnessed countless rises and falls in these eyes, but at this moment I feel a fear that my fate is not in my own hands!
Seeing that Lin Shan hadn't moved an inch and was just staring coldly at him, that indifferent, condescending gaze hadn't appeared in his life for a long time.
But that didn't stop him from rapidly closing in!
The self-destruction of the Spirit Master's domain in the rear, dragging the opponent's two domains down with him, is an excellent opportunity. The next moment, this kid will suffer a backlash and be seriously injured.
Strike while the iron is hot; no matter what you have to rely on, you're doomed today!
A surge of blood-red light flashed past in an instant, ignoring all defenses and heading straight for Lin Shan's face. His killing intent was already brewing to its extreme, and he was confident that few of his peers could withstand this move.
But right now!
In a flash, the vision shifted, as if I were on an ancient, desolate land, surrounded by shattered mountains and rivers, with countless people of my tribe crying and running. The horizon was covered by the apocalypse, and I was transported back to the era when the Blood Age collapsed.
He looked up and saw a dark star, larger than his own world, rising slowly like a behemoth.
"This is."
The old man in blood-stained clothes stared wide-eyed, his hands and feet turned ice-cold, and he couldn't help but tremble. A beam of light shone down from above his head and locked onto him, trapping him in place and unable to move.
The Dark Giant Slammed past, crushing him and the world together!
"A jinx! This is a jinx!"
The old man in blood-red robes roared in terror, remembering the words that the Star Sword Immortal always had on his lips. He finally understood what he was about to face. What made him even more confused was why this kid could call upon the Calamity Star behind him to make a move. Was he really so reckless in exposing himself like this?
The sky over the entire world was collapsing, the earth was cracking, mountains and rivers were overturning, and countless cultivators were falling. He could only watch quietly, like a helpless blade of grass, standing there waiting to die.
As the earth rolled over his head, the collision of their destinies, along with the shock of their fortunes, finally attracted the attention of some being, and then he vaguely heard someone shouting from afar!
"Fellow Daoist, stop! Our Blood Dao Era's powerful figures are leaving their fate to destiny and will not interfere. The fortune is yours, but please leave your destiny behind."
The shout carried a profound Daoist rhythm, piercing through the endless void, as if it came from some forbidden area in some of the myriad realms, and there was a hint of urgency in the words.
The dark stars have finally been awakened!
That's right. This star hadn't been awake before; it was just a projection that was summoned, and it was all driven by instinct.
Suddenly being addressed by an important figure instantly jolted me awake!
When I woke up and my sense of touch returned, I realized that the projection outside had crashed into the depths of the other world and was about to completely destroy the target!
"No, wait a minute."
The calamity star revived, the heavens and earth trembled, black mist billowed in every space, and the laws roared, as if welcoming the birth of an emperor.
But Lin Shan didn't care about any of that. With his life hanging by a thread, he didn't hesitate to enhance the Star Collision into an unparalleled divine power, determined to kill his opponent first!
The old man in blood-red clothes regained consciousness, and in an instant, he was suspended in reality. The blood-red light dimmed as if he had been severely injured, and the clanging of knives echoed in his ears.
The great battle raged on the ancient star road, and time and space seemed to freeze. The Spirit Master was opening his arms and self-destructing his domain. The boy in front of him was bleeding from the corner of his mouth and clutching his chest, but his gaze was fixed on him like a knife.
The old man in blood-red robes' pupils constricted as he saw twelve Yuan Realm Blades descend upon him in an instant, leaving him utterly powerless to resist. His destiny crumbled like a candle in the wind, and he was instantly strangled to death on the spot!
No, you can't.
puff--
As the primordial embryo perished, its eyes dimmed as well. A powerful figure from the Blood Path Era died so cleanly and decisively before our eyes.
The body fell limply to the ground, its eyes wide open, unable to close in death!
A roar echoed from the ancient forbidden land, a fury at the violation of established rules and conventions.
"Very well, very well, so it was you who brought this calamity and misfortune. We'll remember this debt and see what happens to you in the future."
The sound, carrying a reverberation, echoed in the consciousness of the Ancient Starry Road before quickly disappearing into some place in the lower realm, as if it had never existed.
The sense of impending doom finally descended upon him, but by then it was too late. A desolate sigh floated into Lin Shan's mind.
"You've caused me a huge mess again."
Lin Shan felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders, and then fell silent for a moment, truly at a loss for words.
Am I the one who caused this mess? If I hadn't gone all out to kill him, would I still be alive today?
Besides, the original agreement stipulated that star collisions could only be used three times per realm. You can't stop me from using them, can you?
The jinx probably didn't expect this kid to be so troublesome. Instead of causing trouble for the Star Child, he got into a fight with an ancient era powerhouse. It's a curse to have this unlucky kid stuck with him!
However, once a promise has been made, one can only reluctantly accept it.
"Alright, just be careful in the future. Those old fogies from the Blood Path Era won't let this go easily."
After speaking, his consciousness left his body, and the jinx shook his head and walked away.
Lin Shan felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if his liver and gallbladder were about to burst. He couldn't help but cough violently, supporting himself with one hand on the ground. Blood rushed against his meridians like a great river, and he almost went into a qi deviation the next moment!
A deafening explosion erupted from the opposite side as the Spirit Master self-destructed his domain, taking both of his domains with him in the process. The power was earth-shattering, illuminating thousands of miles of the ancient starry road, leaving a breathtaking white expanse before our eyes!
At this moment, Xing Jianxian spoke up, unable to help but express her regret after witnessing the whole thing:
"You went too far, kid! Leave the fortune of the Blood Dao Era powerhouses to me! If I absorbed it, it would be part of the Epochal Struggle, and those old fogies in the Blood Forbidden Land wouldn't have anything to say. Now look what's happened!"
"Shut up!!!"
Lin Shan was emotional and couldn't help coughing violently a few times, which aggravated his meridians and made him wince in pain.
This Star Sword Immortal is utterly useless, just a pretty face with a lot of fuss. If you were even remotely useful, would I need to offend the Blood Path Era?
Xing Yiyuan was truly frightened by him this time, shrinking into the spirit beast ring and not daring to speak.
He could only watch quietly as celestial clouds emerged from above Lin Shan's head, scattering specks of green light to heal his injuries, and his aura slowly returned as he bathed in them.
The collapse of both the Thunder Pool Domain and the Yuan Sha Domain caused his Dharma Body to shatter instantly, and the backlash from his divine powers nearly cost him his life!
Fortunately, he killed Xue Wuchen in an instant before that; if he had been any slower, he would have been the one to die!
The explosion's aura lasted for three breaths.
The surging air currents crashed against the shore like waves, and he barely managed to stand firm under the continuous blows. The terrifying energy within was chilling. Who could have imagined that he would encounter such a formidable enemy so soon after breaking through to the Void Realm!
As the smoke cleared, everything came to the surface.
Lin Shan opened his Star-Slaying Demon Eyes and looked over, only to find that the place was already empty. The Spirit Master was no fool either. After his self-destruction, he was seriously injured. Sensing that something was wrong, he naturally wouldn't obediently stay where he was and immediately took out the Xuanwu Spirit Boat and flew away in an instant!
They also took the members of the Yixian Alliance with them.
Upon seeing this, Xingjianxian couldn't help but sigh with regret.
"It's a pity that you shouldn't have given him the Xuan Tian Ling Bao back then. Now that you've let such a great enemy escape, there will be endless trouble in the future."
"Don't worry, he can't get away!"
Lin Shan couldn't help but cough twice, scanned his surroundings to make sure the other party was far away and not hiding in the shadows preparing to ambush him, before finally sitting cross-legged on the ground.
The illusory cloud above his head inherited the function of the auspicious cloud of Jingxiao, and was continuously healing him, gradually stabilizing his internal condition.
The gates of the Star Palace opened, and the Annihilation Avatar emerged from within.
His gloomy gaze immediately fell on Xue Wuchen's corpse beside him, and he was instantly unable to move, revealing an excited expression!
"You killed a Void Realm cultivator?" Lin Shan didn't open his eyes, but simply waved his hand to indicate that he had killed him.
Originally, since his main body could break through in the lower realm, it didn't matter if his clone did. However, now that someone had delivered this opportunity to him, he decided to seize it and let his clone try to break through to the Void Realm before ascending!
When the time comes, if there are any rewards from Heaven, I can just intercept them and take them for myself. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
The annihilation clone was unaware of his dark thoughts. At this moment, it excitedly ran over, opened its strange domain, and black mist surged, instantly engulfing the person. Its aura began to surge, and it prepared to break through on the ancient star road without any scruples.
At this moment, Xingjianxian appeared, looking worried, clearly still concerned about the matter of the Spirit Master.
"That person is no ordinary person; his strength surpasses yours. Today, he has let the tiger return to the mountain, and we will be unable to eat or sleep in peace from now on. Instead of hurrying up and thinking of a solution, you still have time to let your clone break through?"
"No need to chase him. He can't run far, and he won't go far. He'll have to come back obediently sooner or later."
Lin Shan thought to himself that this woman was indeed not very bright; no wonder she died in the second year of the Great Cataclysm.
Now both sides are severely injured, and what needs to be done is to recover as much as possible.
All he had to do was guard the entrance to the ascension realm. Any master of spirit control who wanted to ascend to the immortal realm would have to get past him!
Currently, neither side is able to overcome the tribulation of cleansing, meaning neither can ascend to immortality.
Moreover, his personal resources have been almost completely depleted from his escape from the Microcosm to now, and the surrounding environment is comparable to the era of the Absolute Law, so he is destined to never be able to return to his peak.
I can take advantage of the opponent's recovery time to help my Nirvana clone break through to the Void Realm. At that time, the offensive and defensive positions will be reversed. The opponent will lose the strong support of the Blood Dao Era, while I will have an extra Void Realm clone. In this way, I can steadily gain the upper hand.
Of course, there is another crucial reason for his composure: the Seven Arrows of Nailhead.
I have the Star-Probing Needle left by the Ancestor of Spirit Control. With this, I can curse him from a distance and see how he can dodge.
If you really think that having the Xuanwu Spirit Boat means you can attack or defend at will, you are sorely mistaken!
Time passed slowly.
He gradually stabilized his injuries under the healing of the Heavenly Dao Spirit Cloud, but the reconstruction of his domain, which had been broken, seemed a long way off. Meanwhile, the aura of his Annihilation Avatar continued to grow steadily.
With its own assistance, the connection between the main body and the avatar can be skipped, such as seeing into the void and simplifying the mortal world. One can directly focus on the flawless primordial embryo and the void inscription.
Back then, Ancestor Yanling wholeheartedly helped him, and now his main body is wholeheartedly helping his avatar. With his current realm and vision, it is not difficult for him to guide the flawless primordial embryo and find this place where the Dao can be inscribed in the void.
About seven days later, the Annihilation Avatar quickly passed through all the levels and arrived at the gate of the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation!
"Master, how is your recovery going?"
On the banks of the Milky Way, the members of the Yixian Alliance were filled with anxiety, living in constant fear that the man surnamed Lin would come to kill them.
Fortunately, the worst fears did not come true, and the injuries of the Spirit Master gradually stabilized and began to heal.
However, this time both sides suffered heavy losses, with both territories exploding and exchanging pieces. As a result, neither side had the confidence to seek a second decisive battle with the other.
The Spirit Master led his people out of the ancient starry road and back into the cosmic rift. With the treacherous Milky Way, even if Lin Shan launched a surprise attack, he would have time to react and escape with everyone again.
After all, the Xuanwu Spirit Boat is a flying Xuantian spiritual treasure, and its speed is unparalleled in the Void Realm. No one can catch up with it!
But an awkward problem arose in front of him.
That means Lin Shan blocked the entrance to the Immortal Realm, which is equivalent to directly blocking his lifeline to ascension!
You want to ascend to immortality? Fine, you'll have to get past me first.
After all, sneaking into the Immortal Realm is not a simple matter. One must undergo a cleansing tribulation outside. Without eliminating the other party, he has no way to pass the tribulation and ascend to immortality.
This is an open and unsolvable scheme!
At this point, there was no need to put on a brave face in front of the younger generation of the Immortal Remnant Alliance, so he could only sigh deeply.
"My injuries can be stabilized, and my cultivation will recover in time, but rebuilding my domain will be difficult. With my current resources, it's far from enough."
How vast is the field?
The spiritual energy and numerous materials required would consume half a lifetime's savings, but he was in this godforsaken place, where could he find them?
His disciples offered him a cacophony of suggestions.
“Master, you have lost your domain, and so has that Lin fellow. If we both abandon our domains, and you recover from your injuries and go back to fight, is it possible for you to defeat him?”
"This"
The Spirit Master couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Although that kid is not as strong as me, his supernatural abilities are quite strange. His technique of extracting luck seems to have limitations, but I guess I can use it again when I go back."
This move is truly insidious; it turns someone into a blank slate. Who could withstand that?
"It's a pity that the Blood Master died because of me. If he were still alive, we wouldn't be in such a passive position."
Thinking of the old man in blood-stained clothes' death, he felt inexplicably aggrieved!
This powerful figure from the ancient era played a crucial role in his growth in the lower realm, acting as both a teacher and a friend. They grew together, joined hands, and ultimately dominated the world before ascending to immortality, leaving behind a pair of ethereal legends!
In some ways, the opponent's strength was no less than his own, but he just didn't know why he was instantly killed by that kid.
Looking back now, it still seems unbelievable.
He simply couldn't accept this reality and couldn't understand what tricks Lin Shan had used to kill his accomplice.
He was forced to self-destruct at that time and couldn't care about anything else. He was lucky to escape with his life in the explosion. Who knew that as soon as he came to his senses, that kid would turn the tables on him!
He had no confidence to go back and face Lin Shan until this problem was clarified.
Many disciples gradually developed a fear of Lin Shan, and no one dared to go back to face him, so they all came up with other ideas.
"Then we'll wait outside and see what happens!"
"Yes, I refuse to believe he won't ascend to immortality and will just stay stuck there forever."
"Although we have exhausted our resources, he also doesn't have much left. He can't stay in the lower realm indefinitely to wear us down. Sooner or later, he will ascend to heaven."
"As long as we can wait, we will eventually see the day he ascends to immortality. Then, we can launch a surprise attack while he is undergoing his tribulation, strike him halfway through, and secure victory in one fell swoop!"
"Oh no, that's too risky. I think we should just let him ascend. We can go back and ascend after he leaves."
"In my opinion, why don't we leave here first, walk along the Milky Way, and see if there are any other ways to sneak into the Immortal Realm?"
These people offered various suggestions, and the Spirit Master stroked his beard and considered them carefully before finally deciding to make the final decision.
Wait!
It's safer to wait until Lin Shan ascends first, and then ascend after he's gone.
"I refuse to believe you won't ascend. At worst, we'll just have to wait it out and see who outlasts whom!" (End of Chapter)
