Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed

"Avatar, avatar..."

Qu Junhou completely ignored Zhang Jing beside him, muttering under his breath incessantly.

Now he finally understood why Senior Brother Zhang Jing did not use the Prehistoric Innocent Fairy Light and Taiyi Dao Intent, his two renowned techniques, in the Nether Night Realm.

It turned out that the one who came with him was nothing more than an avatar of the other party.

Wait! A mere avatar!

Qu Junhou's voice grew quieter and quieter, his look towards the yellow-robed Zhang Jing was like seeing a ghost. He suddenly realised that the one who had managed to slay the God of Fortune across levels was this avatar before his eyes, not his real self!

Could it be——

He swallowed, unwittingly revealing a hint of hope in his voice.

"Senior Brother, may I ask how your avatar compares to your main body?"

"Haha, they might have been evenly matched in the past, but right now..."

Zhang Jing slightly paused.

He clearly knew that at this moment, his real-self must have already started cultivating the other grand divine skills including Chaotic Six Qi, Shrinking Earth into Inches, and the Three Disasters Light from the Primitive Genesis's derivative world.

Once started, it meant that he would gain the corresponding ability characteristics.

The power of these grand divine skills' characteristics.

Zhang Jing had already experienced them through the Reflection of the River of Destiny, Illusion Heart Barrier, and even the Karma Source.

With the assistance of these divine skills and corresponding ability characteristics, he did not even need to think that the real-self would already have enough strength to crush him.

At this thought.

He chuckled, candidly saying:

"Now, my real body is much stronger than me. That's why I just said, this curse on you, needs him to take action."

Along with Zhang Jing's words.

The expression on Qu Junhou's face started to become complicated.

"The real body is even stronger!"

After a while.

"Sigh——why compare myself to this monster. Shouldn't I have extinguished such an idea long ago!"

Qu Junhou shook his head and bitterlyu smiled.

At this moment, the self-satisfaction he had subconsciously generated because he entered the Dharma Phase Realm faster than Zhang Jing quietly disappeared.

His mind returned to reality.

"Please, Senior Brother, help me to delay the curse on me."

Qu Junhou got up and respectfully requested. Compared with earlier, his manner became even more humble.

"Junior Brother, no need to be so courteous."

Zhang Jing said gently.

...

...

Time slowly passed.

Before the Demon Suppressing Tower.

Two figures suddenly appeared in the howling blizzard.

"Don't underestimate Senior Brother Zhang Jing just because he always looks gentle and elegant. When it comes to fighting, he's just as terrifying."

His gaze quickly swept over the ground soaked in demon blood and corpses, Qu Junhou's eyes focused, his heart abruptly tensed.

Then he laughed as if nothing had happened, turning to Zhang Jing.

"Senior Brother, I need to trouble you to go to the headquarters of the Demon Suppressing Department in Dayin Capital. The Teleportation Array we used to come back, still needs the Origin Crystal in the Treasury of Misfortune."

"I'll go and repair the array first."

"Hmm? Junior Brother Qu, you're not planning to go with me?" Zhang Jing glanced at him curiously.

The Treasury of Misfortune contains a large amount of Demon Heart Cores and various weird things.

Although he wasn't like Zhang Jing who could directly absorb and utilize them with the Jade Talisman, if he brought them back to the Mysterious Yellow World, he would be able to exchange them for a terrifying amount of luck movement.

Even the Unity Realm Stage would be tempted, let alone a Dharma Phase Realm like Qu Junhou.

Was he going to give up just like this?

At the side.

Qu Junhou quickly waved his hands, then sincerely said:

"Senior Brother, you're joking. This Junior Brother is already quite satisfied to be able to escape alive, not to mention that I have also obtained the inheritance of the God of Fortune. On a second thought, it's all my fault, I was duped by the God of Fortune's sweet words, causing Senior Brother to fall into danger, I don't even have time to apologize."

"The Treasury of Misfortune in both terms of emotion and reason, should belong to Senior Brother."

Zhang Jing heard the firmness in his words, so he didn't persist further, but gently consoled him:

"Junior Brother need not blame himself. After all, the residual soul of the God of Fortune has been around for so many years, it's quite normal to be deceived by him."

...

...

Meanwhile.

A streak of light was zooming just above ground level, moving through the forest of a million mountains at an extremely fast speed.

The surrounding scenery raced by its sides.

The light was sometimes straight, other times, it curved, and at times it even directly smashed through huge rocks and ancient trees that were too slow to avoid. It looked somewhat flustered and panicked.

Inside the streak of light.

Surprisingly, it was the elderly member of the Dayin Imperial Family who originally escaped from Zhang Jing.

Escape was perhaps not the correct term.

Earlier under the Demon Suppressing Tower, the old man did not dare to fight Zhang Jing at all. Also, because Zhang Jing was under pressure from the God of Fortune at that time and didn't dare delay, the old man was able to preserve his life.

Huff huff——

The old man was panting heavily, his eyes full of terror.

Images of various kings dying miserably kept flashing in his mind and his whole body was shaking constantly.

The older one gets, the more afraid of death one becomes, and in his case, this saying is more than accurate.

"It's over! That Zhang Jing doesn't seem to be much weaker than our master. Our great kings are like ants in his hands. No matter who wins this time between him and master, I fear that I cannot escape death."

"No, I can't just wait to die. I need to find a way, find a way..."

The old man kept whispering to himself.

At one moment.

As if he thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's it, the Treasury of Misfortune! I'll seize it while those two are fighting each other in the Forbidden Ground. The resources inside are enough for me to cultivate. In the vast Nether Night Realm, as long as I conceal my spirit, they would have no way to find me."
