Chapter 899: Chapter 381: Half-immortal’s Strike, Taiqiu’s Turbulence_2
“Huh?”
“He didn’t die, he actually didn’t die. That was an attack from a Half-Immortal Item. How is this Spirit Transformation cultivator so strong?”
“It must be the gray-white light surrounding him. This is definitely not a magic skill or a supernatural power; it should be some sort of defensive Half-Immortal Item, and perhaps even an Immortal Artifact.”
“No, activating a Half-Immortal Item or an Immortal Artifact isn’t this simple, most likely, this is a residual magic skill or a supernatural power solidified by some Half-immortal, or even a True Immortal, left on this Spirit Transformation cultivator.”
“It seems that this Spirit Transformation cultivator also has an extraordinary identity.”
“Hiss!”
Dai Zhe looked terrible as he hovered in midair.
He knew that Han Yi had superior agility; at the Early Stage of Spirit Transformation Level, he already attained a speed similar to that of Peak Transformation God – one of the reasons why Dai Zhe was determined to kill him.
If given time, wouldn’t Han Yi be uncatchable even for him if he continued to break through?
Yet to his fury and astonishment, Han Yi remained unscathed even after bearing the brunt of his near full-strength assault. This demonstrated defensive capability was even more shocking to Dai Zhe than Han Yi’s speed.
Although heavily injured, a strike from a Half-Immortal Item would have been unstoppable even for a Peak Transformation God, let alone leave him without a scratch.
“Damn it.”
“Cough…”

He coughed, belching out a mouthful of spirit energy. Despite his severe injuries, he pulled with one hand and the Earthshaking Shuttle in front of him started vibrating, slowly releasing a wave of golden brilliance rippling out like a water ripple.
Just then.
A loud voice rang out from the Yin Jiu youth, who was escaping from the forest below, causing the forest to shake.
“Dai Zhe, you dare discard brothers from our own Immortal Court!”
“Let all of you bear witness, I, Han Yi, am a practitioner from the Age Candle Immortal Mansion numbered 826. If I were to perish here today, I ask all of you to relay the facts to Zhengyang Half-immortal who is a First-Grade Immortal Envoy at the Righteous Way Immortal Palace, conveying the truth of Dai Zhe murdering me here. Zhengyang Immortal Envoy is close to my acquaintance Mo Ni and all those who do so will definitely be generously rewarded.”
As the words fall, everyone is shocked.
“So the two of them are actually cultivators from that ancient Immortal Court in the North. No wonder this Spirit Transformation-level cultivator has such powerful supernatural powers and magic skills.”
“The Righteous Way Immortal Palace… It’s the law enforcement agency of the Northern Immortal Court. Conveying this piece of information indeed entitles us rewards.”
“Fraternal fratricide, and that too in such broad daylight. Has Dai Zhe gone mad?”
Atop the forest.
Han Yi, still disguised as the Yin Jiu youth who killed Tuoba Hu, did not return to his original form. But in his speech, he used his real name.
His words aimed to hold back Dai Zhe, offering himself a greater chance of escape.
If Dai Zhe let his senses err and was intent on killing him at Taiqiu Immortal Lake, he still had several tricks up his sleeve. For instance, the Grey Long Knife within his Internal Cave World could be used as a potent weapon in dangerous times, whether by wielding it to strike or throwing it directly.
That senior from Taiyuan should definitely come to his rescue, right?
However.
Up in the sky.
After those two spoken sentences, the Earthshaking Shuttle that was continuously vibrating and releasing golden brilliance came to a sudden halt before the ripple-like brilliance vanished and the vibration ceased.
A moment of rationality floated up in Dai Zhe’s raging eyes.
In that instant, his mind returned to his body.
As his thoughts raced, his aloof gaze shifted from Han Yi to the cultivators secretly watching everything from afar. Sensing their inscrutable intentions, his face grew stark.
Lifting a hand to retrieve the Earthshaking Shuttle, Dai Zhe turned and left without saying another word.
His leaving was crisp, surprising, and beyond the expectations of all.
Even Han Yi was momentarily stunned.
Nevertheless, he soon came to his senses and turned to escape in the opposite direction.
The chase had just escalated when it abruptly came to an end, leaving everyone dumbstruck.
Meanwhile, in the shadows.
Within the Immortal Pond, several cultivators emerged and gave chase in two different directions – after Dai Zhe and Han Yi.
Those pursuing Dai Zhe were the Half-immortal loose cultivators hiding here.
Chasing after Han Yi were Late Spirit Transformation practitioners, and even Peak Transformation cultivators.
Two additional chases had thus commenced.
…
In the vast area of Taiqiu Immortal Lake, there are not only Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Spirit Transformation loose cultivators, but even Half-immortals, and a few Immortals.
These Half-immortals or Immortals, reclusive in this area, do not do so for cultivating, for Taiqiu Immortal Lake is not suitable for cultivation.
After the Immortal Venerate who resided in Taiqiu Immortal Pond mysteriously disappeared during the Eighth Origin Assembly, the lake, for unknown reasons, was depleted of its spirit energy. Even a regular Nascent Soul sect couldn’t be supported by the Spirit Veins underneath.
Once, a True Immortal tried to relocate an Immortal-class spiritual vein to somewhere around the Immortal Pond, but it inexplicably withered within ten years.
When Spirit Veins went to seed, it is needless to say about Immortal Veins. Countless Half-immortals tested their luck, relocated Ninth-stage Spirit Veins here, but within just a few months, under their watchful eyes, the Spirit Veins uniformly evaporated.
This mysterious depletion of Spirit Veins is also why only loose cultivators and wandering cultivators reside in Taiqiu Mountain Lake, rather than any Immortal sects.
When Dai Zhe, heavily injured, chased Han Yi to Taiqiu Immortal Lake, an elder, full of immortal wind and dao bones, in a cave mansion somewhere in the Immortal Pond, glanced over through the distance of thousands of miles. He looked serious.
“A nascent soul cultivator who has the speed of a Peak Transformation God.”
“This cultivator is still disguised. This disguise should be a supernatural power. However, being able to cultivate that supernatural power to such a profound level indicates the exceptional talent of this Nascent Soul cultivator.”
“Perhaps he is a Spirit Transformation cultivator from Daluo Fairy Court.”
“To dare to persecute such a remarkable Spirit Transformation cultivator, this Half-immortal… Ah, something’s off with this Half-immortal, so that’s why.”
