Chapter 1583 - Heavenbound Immortal Finger
Watching the sea demons scatter in panic in every direction, Liu Wuxie's eyes lit up as a way out finally appeared. He slipped into the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron at once, then guided it into the stomach of one of the fleeing sea demons.
Driven by terror, the sea demons fled into the depths of the sea without direction. Liu Wuxie couldn't enter the desolate world, as it had already become part of his body, but he could still hide inside the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron.
The Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron shrank into a tiny black speck and fused into the sea demon, fitting perfectly among its organs. Even a quasi-immortal's powerful divine sense was of little use, as the sea demons scattered wildly in every direction at terrifying speed, then vanished without a trace.
The Peach Blossom Gate's sect master sensed Liu Wuxie's aura disappearing, yet he had no way to stop it.
The sea demons swam farther and farther away, and no one knew where they would end up. Liu Wuxie didn't dare to emerge either until he could be sure the Peach Blossom Gate's sect master had truly left.
Just as Liu Wuxie had anticipated, the Peach Blossom Gate's sect master continued searching for him and nearly turned the entire region upside down. He slaughtered large numbers of sea demons and sea beasts, venting his frustration on anything he found.
In the end, the Peach Blossom Gate's sect master's rampage finally provoked the oceanic clan. They dispatched an expert at the Quasi-Immortal Realm to stop him after he crossed the boundary into the oceanic clan's territory.
The pursuit dragged on for an entire day and night before the Peach Blossom Gate's sect master had no choice but to withdraw. When he returned to Peach Blossom Island, countless cultivators stared in disbelief after hearing that Liu Wuxie had escaped. They couldn't believe Liu Wuxie had shaken off the pursuit of a quasi-immortal, and his name spread rapidly throughout the Thousand Islands Sea Region.
People discussed Liu Wuxie's feats in the Peach Blossom Nunnery and the Peach Blossom Pavilion without pause, "Liu Wuxie is a monstrous prodigy that he actually managed to shake off the pursuit of the Peach Blossom Gate's sect master."
As for what Liu Wuxie had done in the Peach Blossom Cave, it left everyone stunned. After all, he had slaughtered nearly ten thousand experts by himself, including over thirty cultivators at the pinnacle of the Heaven Gaze Realm.
The Peach Blossom Gate suffered a crippling blow with Tao Xuanming's death and the loss of over a hundred elders. In a single day, the Peach Blossom Gate's status crashed to a second-tier sect, with their upper echelons nearly wiped out and an entire generation of experts erased.
What people talked about most was the mysterious box Liu Wuxie had taken. No one knew what it contained. Some insisted it held a massive trove of immortal stones, others swore it contained immortal art, and many speculated it likely contained a hidden method to reach the Immortal Realm.
