Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 1203: Chapter 722: Extermination of Immortals

The Primordial Heavenly Demon, though unaware that he was already seen as the easiest target by Xu Yang, could still sense Xu Yang’s confidence and dominance at this moment.

He was fully confident!

He was determined to win!

But for himself…

The heart of the Primordial Heavenly Demon sank, but being the ancestor of the Demon Realm, he did not weaken his aura: “A mere Earth Immortal, yet you dare to talk about the Heavenly Dao. Without that advantage of the Supreme, how much courage would you have to confront me?”

His words were a counter-attack, aiming to strike at the heart.

However, Xu Yang was unmoved. He simply swept his horsetail whisk, activating the Taoist skills. Instantly, the Supreme Pure Immortal Light shone brilliantly, manifesting Tai Chi Yin and Yang, and directly enveloped the Primordial Heavenly Demon.

The previous words were not only a rebuke of morals to claim legitimacy, but also to confirm from his own mouth, to fill in the missing causes and details.

Now that both objectives had been achieved, Xu Yang would no longer waste time arguing with him, and directly made his killer move.

“!!!!”

The Primordial Heavenly Demon’s pupils contracted, and the Demonic Qi within his body surged, transforming into a vast dark sea in an instant, intending to counter the Supreme Taoist Skill, the Supreme Pure Immortal Light.

However, it was futile, utterly futile. The Tai Chi Yin and Yang pressed down, the Primordial Demonic Qi was shattered layer by layer, and the Dark Abyss Sea was also destroyed, revealing his original body of the Taihuang Emperor, with a twisted face wailing in agony.

One strike decided the superior and inferior!

This was only to be expected.

Now, it was not Zhen Yuanzi who was here, but Li Liuxian, Xu Yang’s Taoist incarnate body, Li Liuxian.

The difference between them was like heaven and earth!

Previously, as the Taoist world and the demonized Primordial Spirit World converged, Xu Yang chose a dead prisoner with a Five Elements Spiritual Root to investigate this realm. He fragmented his Yang God Spirit and used the Body Snatching Technique to take over the physical body, sending it to act in the demonized Primordial Spirit World, which later became Kong Xuan, the Left Envoy of White Jade Capital.

After the chaos in the Demon Realm was settled and the Taoist Primordial Spirit worlds merged, Xu Yang did not take back this Yang God Incarnation but left it in White Jade Capital to suppress the endless Blood Sea and the portal of the Heavenly Demon Sect. After bringing out the Earth Immortal Realm, this Taoist Incarnation was sent out again, becoming Zhen Yuanzi, who roamed the Earth Immortal Realm.

Currently, to deal with the Primordial Demon, he had again moved this Yang God Incarnation back to the lower realms, returning it to the body of the Taoist Monarch.

Due to the difference in time flow, these two incarnations had experienced a hundred thousand years. Whether it was the Taoist Monarch or the Yang God Incarnation, both had reached the extreme state of Earth Immortal, and he had long obtained the Supreme Tao Fruit and the position of Heavenly Immortal. One can only imagine the outcome of combining these two bodies.

The Taoist Monarch took back the cultivation, Taoist cultivation, and mana of Zhen Yuanzi’s Yang God, all except the physical body. Everything returned to Li Liuxian, allowing Li Liuxian to breakthrough and achieve Heavenly Immortal in the World of Dao and Law.

This is Xu Yang’s second Heavenly Immortal incarnation following the Supreme Nine Forms Venerable of the Mystic Yellow Realm—Ten Thousand Dao Ancestor Li Liuxian!

Thus, it was only to be expected that the Primordial Heavenly Demon could not match him.

Now, he was far from the original ruler who once dominated a realm and struck terror in the heavens, the Primordial Demon Ancestor.

When the Supreme Taoist Ancestor crossed realms and arrived, he used the power of a Golden Immortal to destroy his Primordial Demon Fruit, sending him into the abyss for the first time.

Subsequently, relying on the residual Golden Immortal Power, he revived from death, but that thoroughly depleted that Golden Immortal Power, never to be restored.

Facing a battle against the Taoist Immortal Gods like this, and with the Supreme Elder’s backup plan crushing him again, the result is clear.

The Primordial Demon Fruit was destroyed!

The Golden Immortal Power was exhausted!

Twice suppressed, twice destroyed, all that was left was a remnant soul, no longer the mighty Primordial Heavenly Demon close to a Golden Immortal.

Otherwise, how could he not even transform a Taihuang Emperor, and remain trapped in this Mystic Yellow Pagoda?

Remember, the original Taihuang Emperor was just a Human Immortal, not even an Earth Immortal. Now he couldn’t immediately transform him and even let the Taihuang Emperor exhaust his remaining power to seal himself, trapped in this Mystic Yellow Pagoda for tens of thousands of years.

These facts are enough to prove that he is no longer as he once was, no longer the almost Golden Immortal-level demon, but a languishing, weak remnant soul.

In such a state, how could he possibly defeat Xu Yang, who had merged two bodies to attain the Heavenly Immortal position?

Before his deadly utterance that Xu Yang was a Supreme incarnation, it was clear enough that he was already incapable of confronting Xu Yang directly, only capable of using such tactics to disturb his opponent and seek a chance to live.

Unfortunately, it was pointless. Xu Yang cultivated the Supreme Taoist Skill, already reaching the stage of “Supreme Forgetting Emotion,” and with skill characteristics such as “Supreme Dao” enhancing him, not to mention a few words from him, even if his Primordial Demon Fruit were restored, displaying various demonic transformations and even mental demons, none could affect Xu Yang.

His fate had already been determined, all else was merely a struggle in the face of death.

And so, after an unknown period…

“Whoosh!!!”

The Supreme Pure Immortal Light dispersed, the gates of the pagoda swung wide open.

A person stepped out, his expression calm, undisturbed and serene.

“Taoist Master!”

Immortals wait outside, viewing this situation with apprehension and uncertainty, not daring to approach.

“The Demon Head is extinguished!”

Xu Yang didn’t say much more, holding a horsetail whisk, looking towards the Celestial Immortals of Heavenly Court and Xuan Qiong Lady Yao, “As for Emperor Taihuang… The Demon Seed runs deep, usurping the host, I have no power to reverse this tragedy, please everyone, grieve moderately!”

“Father Emperor!”

“Emperor Venerable!”

Although they were already mentally prepared, the reality was still hard to accept, the Celestial Immortals of Heavenly Court appeared dejected, Xuan Qiong and Lady Yao couldn’t help but shed tears.

Xu Yang shook his head, without offering more comfort, his gaze turned towards Phoenix Song and other immortal from the Tao Palace: “I will go beyond the heavens, to eradicate the source of demons, you all should lead your troops and pacify the two domains of devils and demons.”

“Yes!!!”

Upon hearing this, the immortals felt as if a great weight had been lifted off their shoulders and promptly accepted the command.

Xu Yang didn’t linger, his steps shifted and his figure vanished in an instant, arriving outside the Thirty-three Heavens, within the Heaven-Reaching Secret Realm.

The Heaven-Reaching Secret Realm, with its serene coldness, was no longer as it once was. The ruined palaces and temples were all gone without a trace, the Heaven-Connecting Secret Treasures previously hidden inside had also all disappeared, with only a few Great Arrays still entrenched.

Xu Yang was not surprised by this because he was the perpetrator behind all of this.

Over the years, he had been exploring the Heaven-Reaching Secret Realm. With his potent Earth Immortal power and exquisite understanding of Array Formation, he solved one Formation after another, collecting those Taoism Immortal Gods’ secret treasures one by one.

To date, there are only a few Heavenly Immortal Treasures left unretrieved and their corresponding Immortal Arrays which are also at the Heavenly Immortal Level, even if damaged, still possess terrifying power, enough to annihilate an Earth Immortal.

Despite being a Heavenly Immortal capable of breaking these Heavenly Immortal Formations and retrieving the treasures within, Xu Yang had not acted yet, instead heading towards the center of the Secret Realm.

In the center of the Secret Realm stood an Array with four gates, each gate housing an Immortal Sword. The Formation was not activated, the swords unmovable, yet still a significant fatal threat emanated, alarming both Immortals and Buddhas and terrifying Gods and Demons.

The Exterminating Immortal Sword Formation!

After years of exploration, Xu Yang had clearly understood all about this Heaven-Reaching Secret Realm.

This Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm was actually not a Secret Realm at all but a Great Array, a peerless Great Array that encompassed all of the Taoism Immortal Gods.

That year when the Primordial Heavenly Demon resurrected and engaged in a second deathmatch with the Taoism Immortal Gods in the Earth Immortal Realm, to suppress this calamity causing giant demon, all the powers and treasures were gathered, even not sparing Innate Spirit Roots like the Flat Peach Tree and Bodhi Root, to create this peerless Great Array.

Its principle resembled the Ten Thousand Dao and Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, both gathering collective strength, creating great power; however, this Array was more perfected and stronger, assembling the power of several Heavenly Venerate and all Taoism Immortal Gods.

But, even with such an extraordinary Immortal Array, facing the resurrected Primordial Heavenly Demon powered by Golden Immortal Power, it did not gain the upper hand and struggled to prevail, and thus, all of the Taoism Immortal Gods had to use the last resort left by the Supreme Taoist Ancestor.

The Exterminating Immortal Sword Formation!

This Formation, left by the Supreme Taoist Ancestor, formed from the Four Exterminating Immortal Swords and the Exterminating Immortal Array Map, was crafted during the primordial creation from the evolution of Earth, Wind, Fire, Water – elements of life and destruction, treasures of Creation of Heaven and Earth, and also objects of destruction, once the Sword Array starts, it could refine Earth, Wind, Fire, Water anew, destruct and recreate the universe, ranking Twelfth Order, a peerlessly unparalleled Golden Immortal Extreme Formation!

That year, the Taoism Immortal Gods, using the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation as the source, drove this Exterminating Immortal Sword Formation, confronting the Primordial Heavenly Demon’s Golden Immortal Power, ultimately repressing the Primordial Heavenly Demon for a second time, with that Golden Immortal Power also dissipating into ashes.

Unfortunately, the Golden Immortal power was too terrifying; during the extreme conflict the Primordial Heavenly Demon was extinguished, none of the Taoism Immortal Gods survived, from the greatest Heavenly Venerate to the lesser gods, all vanished into thin air under the impact of the Golden Immortal Power.

In the end, only leaving behind the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, which evolved into the future Heaven-Reaching Secret Realm, containing various damaged celestial treasures, immortal roots, and Immortal Arrays, some having long vanished.

Even so, seeing this setup, one could still feel the splendor of the Taoism Immortal Gods of the past, and the terror of the Primordial Heavenly Demon.

Golden Immortal Power, Golden Immortal Power!

All beings in a realm, mere ants, even Heavenly Immortals and Heavenly Gods, couldn’t escape the fate of annihilation.

This is the power, the ability of the Golden Immortal.

Although Xu Yang has extinguished that lingering soul of the Primordial Heavenly Demon, his ultimate goal had not been achieved, there are still a Supreme of the Netherworld Sect in the present world, a Moluo Boxun in the Azure Star Realm, along with numerous Heavenly Immortals watching covetously.

To resolve these issues, commanding a breakthrough power is essential.

After all, these two worlds are different from the World of Dao and Law; the World of Dao and Law is the world Xu Yang had operated the longest and had the deepest accumulations, additionally having resources from the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm, and using Fake to Real to refine, hence the Taoism Monarch was able to become Heavenly Immortal in one fell swoop after reclaiming his Solar Avatar.

The real world and Azure Star Realm are different, almost impossible to achieve Heavenly Immortal status in a short time, and even if one becomes Heavenly Immortal, it is still inadequate, unable to completely suppress the situation.

Thus, Xu Yang needs a sharp weapon, a weapon capable of suppressing the overall situation and deterring all directions.

This Exterminating Immortal Sword Array is the best choice, a key force to break through the perilous situation.

A Twelfth Order Golden Immortal Extreme Formation, if able to be controlled, would indeed be an ultimate weapon, not only capable of eliminating threats like the Supreme of the Netherworld Sect and Moluo Boxun but also able to intimidate all the Heavenly Immortals in the Supreme Mysterious Realm and Azure Star Realm.

But… can he control it?

Xu Yang, silent, just heading towards the inside of the Array.

Observing such an Extreme Array from the outside, pointless.

Only by stepping inside, experiencing it personally, can one comprehend the principles, thereby breaking the Array.

But the danger within…
