Chapter 260: 163, even Blood Demon thinks you're evil_2
Among these four Immortal Sects, two proceeded smoothly, whereas the other two encountered some troubles.
They were none other than Luoja Mountain and Jinglong Cave Heaven!
After all, one had severed the incarnation of an ancestral master, and the other had completely ignored their own ancestral master.
As a result, these two Immortal Sects had to stage a show of internal strife. The An family moved away from Luoja Mountain, while Jinglong Cave Heaven sent several elders who then fought each other and went to Luoja Mountain to seek help from their ancestral master.
The reason was that the two ancestral masters from Jinglong Cave Heaven were not faring well in the Land of the Four Pillars; they didn't even possess the power to communicate with Jinglong Cave Heaven on their own.
In three hundred years, even by relying on the special realm characteristics that cause a surge in immortal nature after the third enlightenment, these two had only cultivated four hundred years of Dao fruit.
But this was not even the worst part.
Other Immortal Sects and demonic path sects had ancestral masters whose Dao fruit might exceed that of the two from Jinglong Cave Heaven, but they had not resolved their personal issues, while at least Jinglong Cave Heaven's masters had resolved theirs. Some had resolved their personal issues but hadn't accumulated even three hundred years of Dao fruit.
This group that achieved the third enlightenment actually had no qualifications to do so, their limit should have been the first enlightenment! The only reason they managed to reach the third enlightenment was thanks to the colossal fortune that took place in the Jiawu Realm three hundred years ago.
It was when Jiawu Realm advanced into the ranks of Heaven's Jia, receiving the fifth blessing. Since Heaven and Earth lack self-awareness, the benefits of advancing into Heaven's Jia fell into the hands of those with only the first or second enlightenment.
Prior to this, regardless of one's cultivation level, all were promoted to the rank of third enlightenment!
Normally, the six ancestral masters of Luoja Mountain would not take the initiative to contact the two from Jinglong Cave Heaven when it came to such an opportunity as an immortal chance, but Luoja Mountain's "new Mountain Lord" told them that seven ancestral masters had come down from Mount Tutian and arrogantly injured the masters of Guan He Xi Tuo Mountain.
So, the six ancestral masters of Luoja Mountain promptly got in touch with all ascended ancestral masters they could reach from Jiawu Realm. However, these masters lacked the necessary heavenly materials and earthly treasures, which led to Tan Shuchang's family resources being completely drained.
...
At this moment atop Luoja Mountain, countless rays of dawn light descended from the heavens, and to the distant cultivators of Jiawu Realm who witnessed such a scene, it was not the least bit surprising.
It was then that a colossal vital energy palm formed and appeared amidst the radiant light, slamming down the moment it materialized.
Heaven and Earth seemed to shake for a moment, terrifying waves of qi rolled, and the Luoja Mountain below was blasted to pieces. Enjoy new stories from empire
But the disciples of Luoja Mountain had long evacuated, along with the Mountain-defending Formation.
It wasn't just the disciples of Luoja Mountain who had left, but also the common people and cultivators within the surrounding three provinces.
And at this moment, seeing the enormous vital energy palm, the cultivators who witnessed it felt an eerie sense of familiarity; after all, they had seen it just half a month prior.
In a fit of shock and fury, the six ancestral masters of Luoja Mountain immediately fought back. The two ancestral masters of Jinglong Cave Heaven originally intended to settle accounts with their junior disciples, but at that moment, they too chose to retaliate first. They wanted to see just who dared to be so audacious and launch a sneak attack on them!
The actions of these eight ancestral masters were significant, for failure inevitably followed.
Even the ancestral masters of Mount Tutian, when struck by the counterattack of Star Fate Heaven and Earth, had to suffer serious injuries and could not even manifest their immortal reliance. What could be said of these masters from the third-tier ranks?
So, this battle was without any suspense, and by the time the dust settled, the ancestral masters who had descended this time were wiped out to a man.
After the six ancestral masters of Luoja Mountain and the two from Jinglong Cave Heaven made their move, the other ancestral masters followed suit. Although the earlier actions had exhausted the power of Star Fate Heaven and Earth, Tan Shuchang still had other Divine Skills at his disposal!
Time is as precious as gold, the winds stir and rains fall, there is a season for the vernal equinox, calling the wind and summoning the rain, these four Divine Skills used in succession sent the ancestral masters to the Land of Yin and Darkness.
As for such an earth-shattering, epoch-making battle, although the distant cultivators felt a trace of shock, more than that was a subconscious sense of it being expected.
However, some did not hold this view.
One of them was the Secluded Spring Blood Demon.
Having sensed the commotion here, this demon had already rushed to the scene.
But when the Secluded Spring Blood Demon saw that it was again Tan Shuchang, its expression couldn't help but change.
It was because the demon thought of its own blood body.
That blood body was no trivial matter, second only in importance to its Righteous True Immortal of Earthly Slaughter Dao Fruit, yet now someone had forcibly torn off half of it!
"Damn that pedantic old man!" The Secluded Spring Blood Demon couldn't help but curse the man in his thoughts.
The "pedantic old man" he referred to was the master of the Purple-Gold Immortal, who at the cost of his own falling Dao, not only sent him to reincarnate but also sealed his Righteous True Immortal of Earthly Slaughter Dao Fruit.
This was why, even though the Secluded Spring Blood Demon successfully reincarnated and replaced the personality of this life's body, it was still unable to return to its full strength from the prime of its life.
And with the Righteous True Immortal of Earthly Slaughter Dao Fruit sealed, the blood body had become the Secluded Spring Blood Demon's most significant reliance!
With half of this reliance now lost, how could the Secluded Spring Blood Demon withstand it!
"What in the world is this kid?"
The Secluded Spring Blood Demon pondered over Tan Shuchang's origins. Its original speculations about Tan Shuchang were completely overturned the moment Tan Shuchang manifested the Undying Blood form, and his presence became terrifyingly dreadful.
