I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Heavenly Corpse Mountain.

It had become a vast laboratory.

To the east, countless beasts were held captive, entering the lab via conveyor belts, where injections turned them into ferocious beasts.

To the west was Yin Sha Forbidden Land, where the Corpse Refining Great Array would directly corrode the freshly produced ferocious beasts, transforming them into Corpse Demons.

There were hundreds, even thousands of such labs dedicated to producing Corpse Demons throughout the Nine Continents.

Like locusts consuming the West Garden, they produced ferocious beasts non-stop until humanity was extinguished.

"In ancient times, it took me years, even decades, to refine mortal beasts into Corpse Demons comparable to those at the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment levels. Now, with the combination of ancient methods and new techniques, the efficiency has increased a thousandfold. It is right that I should attain the Great Dao!"

The Golden Corpse caressed the dim Treasure Bead in its hand, suddenly looked up at the sky, and let out a wild cackle.

"You stubborn old heavens, not yet giving up. What can the mere solar phenomenon do to me?"

"All of this is the bed you made for yourself!"

Boom... boom... boom...

Thunder suddenly rumbled in the sky, splitting the dense demon clouds with several cracks, as if responding to the Golden Corpse.

"Hehehe! Cultivation has always been about defying the heavens. For tens of thousands of years, the Cultivation World has experienced cycles of prosperity and decline, and this time It shall be I who brings it all to an end!"

Far from being afraid, the Golden Corpse's laughter grew even more wild.

Such demonically great figures no longer feared destiny or karma, only believing in the power of their own fists!

...

Outside the mountain.

A thousand miles to the west.

Four figures emerged from underground, poised to surround and kill the Demon Monarch: three humans and a demon.

Zhou Yi said, "The Demon Head has not yet taken possession and still retains some Heavenly Monarch power. If we get any closer, we might be detected."

The Golden Corpse was cautious and would not concern itself with maintaining the face of a Heavenly Monarch. If it sensed something amiss while fighting Zhou Yi and the others, its first choice would be to flee.

In the storybooks, the large and powerful old demons hunkering down in their lairs to fight to the death against righteous cultivators simply did not exist.

Ao Qin frowned slightly, "The area within a thousand miles is too vast. If the old demon wants to escape, we cannot stop him!"

"I already have a plan," Zhou Yi said as he took several storage bags out of his sleeve. "These are the Array Plates I have crafted, capable of sealing off a thousand miles. The old demon will have no choice but to fight to the death with us here!"

Ao Qin took the storage bags, his Divine Sense swept over them, and he looked deeply at Zhou Yi.

Within were tens of thousands of Array Plates and Formation Flags, which even ordinary True Monarchs would find difficult to craft in a lifetime, let alone several storage bags.

"The Divine Skills of a True Monarch are unfathomable. Truly, once the Demon Monarch is eliminated, I hope for peace between our two species!"

With that, he turned into a beam of light and flew to the east. Since inheriting the Azure Dragon Bloodline, every divination technique he used pointed to the east as supremely auspicious.

Han Chao took the storage bags and said, "Master, I'll head to the south."

Xiao Hong shrugged helplessly, "I am not skilled in formations. If I were to forcibly set one up, it might be fraught with errors."

Neither Divine Skills nor supportive arts had developed at all.

"Xiao Daoist friend, you are in charge of tracking the old demon. If there's any movement, immediately send a message."

Zhou Yi's figure flickered, and he split into several Mana avatars, sinking into the ground to begin setting up the Formation and Prohibition.

Since reaching the peak of Golden Core, without a clear method to break through to Nascent Soul, Zhou Yi devoted his efforts to the four arts. By now, his mastery of formation pill tool talisman had reached the pinnacle.

Waving his hand to set up formations, drawing talismans in the void, performing alchemy without a cauldron, and other profound techniques—Zhou Yi was capable of all of them.

Countless Corpse Demons roamed the surface, completely unaware that the ground below became riddled with Formation and Prohibition. With low spiritual intelligence and no cultivation, they relied solely on instinct to devour Yin Sha and vital essence to increase their strength.

Half a year passed in a flash.

The Golden Corpse cultivated within the grand hall, indifferent to the tens of millions of Corpse Demons lost at the front lines.

Due to the vast distance from Cloud Continent, Zhou Yi and the others were unaware of humanity's plight. The battlefield was undoubtedly becoming more difficult; once resources were depleted, humans could only physically fight against the Corpse Demons.

Under such circumstances, both the human and demon races were doomed to fail!

On this day.

All the Formation and Prohibition were in place, Zhou Yi and the others positioned at the four corners, waiting for the opportune moment.

The summer solstice.

Yang energy was at its peak, and the sun looked like a blazing furnace, scattering endless radiance over the Nine Continents.

Near the Heavenly Corpse Sect, however, the sky remained dark and gloomy, shrouded by thick Yin Sha demonic energy, which sunlight could hardly penetrate.

Yet today was out of the ordinary. As noon approached and the sun reached its zenith, what was originally the size of a round plate began expanding: first like a pot lid, then like a chariot wheel, until it spanned three to four zhang.

Looking up, it seemed as if the sun was falling from the sky onto the Nine Continents, within reach.

What shone down was no longer mere sunlight but strands of true solar fire, burning through the demon clouds, creating breaches.

Sizzling...

The demon clouds quickly melted away under the fearsome celestial might, vanishing in moments.

The Corpse Demons, now exposed under the solar true fire, began to suffer mottled burns on their bodies and uttered hoarse, piercing screams, instinctively digging holes to burrow into the ground.

"The time has come!" Zhou Yi's voice boomed from the north, his Mana churning as numerous formations rose from the ground.

The formations flickered with flowing light, first sealing the ground, rendering it as hard as fine steel to the Corpse Demons' bone blades.

Hum!

As all the formations activated, a semi-circular rainbow light appeared in the sky, with the divine radiance of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements swirling around, covering a thousand miles of the void.

"Hehehe, it's been a thousand years since I last saw the Sect Protection Array!"

An eerie laugh echoed as the Golden Corpse surged out from the grand hall, scrutinizing the formations for a long while, its expression growing increasingly ferocious.

"It's traces of the Dan Ding Sect. Are you that God of Slaughter reincarnated? I should have realized sooner. That God of Slaughter terrified the Nine Continents, allowing him to collect legacies from both righteous and demonic paths!"
