A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

Chapter 765: Opposing a Great Encompassment Cultivator

A cold look flashed through Yin Chengquan's eyes, but he then said in a calm voice, "Given the urgency of the situation, your actions are understandable. However, it's still true that you've broken a sacred law of our tribe, but if you can kill these scoundrels, I'm willing to spare you of punishment."

"Thank you, Regional Monarch! Your generosity is truly unmatched!" Yin Gua hurriedly replied in an elated manner.

"Your ability to tell lies without even so much as batting an eyelid is truly impressive, Yin Chengquan. I've seen three people who've come here without your permission. One of them was a man named Yin Duo, right? He was also a Great Encompassment Stage Gray Immortal, but you still sucked him dry and threw him into the lightning pond," Liu Qi chuckled.

Yin Gua's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

Elder Yin Duo's disappearance had always been extremely suspicious, and the circumstances behind his disappearance had never been confirmed. Everyone in the Infernal Tribe had thought that he was killed by people from the Reincarnation Region during an outing, but for some reason, Yin Chengquan hadn't seemed overly bothered by his disappearance.

With that in mind, it was all the more plausible that Yin Duo could've been killed by Yin Chengquan.

"Stop trying to drive a wedge between us, you sly old fox! I am the master of the Infernal Region, I wouldn't stoop as low as to say one thing, only to do another!" Yin Chengquan declared in a cold voice.

"Rest assured, Regional Monarch, I'll wipe out these pesky rats right away," Yin Gua vowed as he cupped his fist in a salute toward Yin Chengquan.

Yin Chengquan nodded in response, then turned his attention back to Liu Qi before charging straight at him.

"You got away once, but this time, I'll make sure to get the job done!" Yin Gua spat through gritted teeth as he turned Shi Chuankong and Fox 3. Shi Chuankong took a glance at Han Li, who was still in the silver lightning pond, then turned back to face Yin Gua with a grim expression.

"We're in trouble now, Fellow Daoist Shi," Fox 3 said with a wry smile.

"Don't give up yet! If you have any more trump cards up your sleeves, then don't hide them any longer. He may be a Great Encompassment cultivator, but I can sense that his aura is still rather unstable after creating all those Infernal Soul Bugs. If we can last until Fellow Daoist Li comes out of the lightning pond, we'll still have a chance!" Shi Chuankong said.

"To think that a Golden Immortal and a Jade Immortal would dare to oppose me! How ludicrous!" Yin Gua harrumphed coldly as he removed a black seal from his waist before tossing it forward.

A streak of black light shot out of his hand, then instantly transformed into a millstone-sized black seal that hurtled directly toward Shi Chuankong, who immediately made a hand seal while rushing back in retreat.

However, the black seal abruptly sped up significantly, striking Shi Chuankong in the blink of an eye to send him flying before crashing into the wall behind him.

"Brother Shi!" Fox 3 cried out in alarm, but right at this moment, a ball of crimson light emerged over his body, and he exploded on the spot.

"Pathetic!" Yin Gua scoffed with a disdainful expression.

He then cast his gaze toward Han Li, who was still in the silver lightning pond, and a hint of fear flashed through his eyes at the sight of the raging silver lightning.

Right at this moment, his brows suddenly furrowed slightly as he turned his gaze to the black seal.

A burst of cracking was ringing out from behind the black seal, and a series of spatial rifts branched out around it, making the entire space appear rather warped and fractured.

Behind the seal, Shi Chuankong's hands were clasped in a strange seal, and in front of them was a walnut-sized white jade pendant that was giving off formidable spatial fluctuations, forming a barrier between him and the seal.

"I forgot that you had some spatial law powers up your sleeve," Yin Gua harrumphed coldly, then thrust a palm forward, and a resounding boom rang out as a burst of tremendous force erupted out of the black seal, instantly destroying the spatial barrier in its path.

The white jade pendant in front of Shi Chuankong's also exploded, while the black seal crashed into him with immense power, causing him to throw up a mouthful of blood as the wall behind him fractured into countless pieces.

All of a sudden, his body began to swell drastically in size, while large black scales emerged over his skin, and a layer of complex silver patterns appeared over his chest and limbs. His hair also grew rapidly, while his handsome features devolved into a monstrous visage, and in the blink of an eye, he had transformed into a giant demonic being that was over a thousand feet tall.

At the same time, four more arms had grown out of his back and his ribs, and they were also riddled with silver patterns.

Shi Chuankong thrust all six palms forward, releasing waves of silver light that struck the black seal, which had swelled to the size of a small mountain at this point.

A resounding boom rang out, and not only was the seal stopped cold in its tracks, it was even sent flying back to Yin Gua, who raised an eyebrow as he casually swept a sleeve through the air, upon which the seal flew back up his sleeve as a streak of black light.

"Is that all you've got? In that case, you can die now," Yin Gua scoffed with undisguised contempt, and he spread open the fingers of his other hand, upon which a ball of radiant black light emerged from the palm of his hand.

Right at this moment, Yin Gua felt a blur flash before his eyes, following which his flesh was instantly peeled back as a series of extremely vibrant crimson flowers sprouted out of his body.

The flower had extremely voluptuous petals that resembled luscious lips, and they were dotted with droplets of blood that resembled morning dew, presenting a harrowing sight to behold.

Yin Gua looked down to discover that his body seemed to be acting as sustenance for these crimson flowers, and his blood and energy were being rapidly sucked away.

A cold sneer appeared on his face as he remarked, "It's not every day that I get to see such beautiful flowers in the Gray Realm. If I wasn't in such a hurry, I'd perhaps stay in your little illusion for a while longer."

He was speaking in a very casual and nonchalant fashion, but internally, he was quite perplexed, wondering when he had fallen into this illusion.

As soon as his voice trailed off, he let loose a loud roar that caused the entire hall to tremble violently.

A burst of incredibly powerful energy fluctuations erupted out of his body, and the surrounding illusion was instantly eradicated.

Right at this moment, Fox 3's voice suddenly rang out.

"Now, Brother Shi!"

In the same instant that the illusion was destroyed, the sound of lute music rang out, and Yin Gua was greeted by the sight of Shi Chuankong charging directly at him, strumming the strings of a silver lute with his bloodstained fingers.

As the lute was played with more and more urgency, all of the patterns on it began to light up, following which a streak of radiant silver light appeared over the strings of a lute, resembling an arrow that was about to be fired.

A sense of instinctive foreboding welled up in Yin Gua's heart, and to his astonishment, he discovered that the streak of silver light really did seem to be able to pose a threat to him.

At this moment, Shi Chuankong was still in mid-air, and almost all of his immortal spiritual power had been sucked dry by the Virata Lute. His entire body was trembling uncontrollably, but his hands remained firm.

Right on the verge of completely exhausting his immortal spiritual power reserves, he released the strings of the lute, and the streak of silver light instantly shot forth.

The streak of light was fired at almost point blank range, and it instantly struck Yin Gua in the chest.

A faint crack rang out as the black seal appeared in front of Yin Gua's chest at the last second to block the streak of silver light.

However, the black seal was instantly split in half, and the streak of silver light continued onward without pause.

One half of the black seal fell to the ground, while the other half vanished into thin air.

Taking advantage of the split-second of time that the seal had bought for him, Yin Gua sped away to the side as an arc of black lightning, moving as quickly as Han Li when enhanced by his Reversal True Axis ability.

Even so, the arc of black lightning still wasn't able to completely evade the streak of silver light, and just like that half of the black seal, the section of the arc of lightning that was struck instantly disappeared without a trace.

The remaining arc of black lightning sped over to one side of the hall, following which Yin Gua emerged within it with an alarmed and furious look on his face.

He turned to discover that his entire left arm had disappeared along with his left shoulder, and there were still residual spatial law fluctuations lingering on his wound, preventing the flesh there from regenerating.
