Cultivating To Immortality

"Immortal Artifact, Nirvana Divine Thunder, Void Law? It seems that after the Misty Immortal Mansion was completely destroyed back then, some new Immortal sects have appeared in this Misty Realm."

"Unfortunately, your sects and cultivators are too weak compared to the Misty Immortal Mansion in its heyday; they are simply not worth mentioning."

The Skull Masked Man hovered in the air, looking at the scene below and muttering softly.

Fang Hong heard the Skull Masked Man's words clearly. The destruction of the Misty Immortal Mansion was likely related to him.

Perhaps he was the one who secretly manipulated those Demon Locusts back then, leading to the complete destruction of the entire Misty Immortal Mansion.

"Kill."

A roar suddenly exploded in the main hall, and the three Sect Ancestors moved almost simultaneously.

The Immortal Artifacts in their hands had already been activated to their maximum, each exuding a world-destroying pressure.

The Heaven Evil Mirror was the first to burst forth with dazzling golden light, a concentrated beam shooting straight out.

The Creation Cauldron beside it was not to be outdone; its mouth tilted slightly, and a ball of Immortal Origin Fire whooshed out.

The Demon Slaying Sword on the other side was even more overbearing; its entire body flowed with Immortal light, slashing fiercely towards the Skull Masked Man.

The moment the three Immortal Artifacts exerted their power simultaneously, the entire world trembled.

The formation that originally enveloped the main hall's surroundings couldn't even withstand the impact of this terrifying power for a moment.

First, cracks appeared, then with a crack, it shattered into countless specks of light, completely dissipating.

And the destructive power surging from the Immortal Artifacts swept towards the Skull Masked Man like a raging flood.

Fang Hong, Su Shan, and Azure Emperor quickly spread out, protecting the surroundings of the main hall to prevent being affected by the destructive power.

The power of the Immortal Artifacts truly lived up to its reputation.

Such terrifying power would be difficult for even a peak Mahayana expert to withstand; the Skull Masked Man was probably doomed this time.

However, just as the attacks of the three Immortal Artifacts were about to hit the Skull Masked Man, an unexpected scene occurred.

The Skull Masked Man showed no intention of dodging at all; he remained standing in place, his hands slightly raised, and the swarm of insects around him suddenly moved.

The swarm of insects surged over like a black tide, enveloping him in layers, forming a circular defense as dark as ink.

Bang.

An earth-shattering roar erupted as the attacks from the three Immortal Artifacts slammed heavily onto the insect swarm's defensive shield, instantly causing a violent explosion.

The terrifying destructive impact swept throughout the entire main hall; the stone pillars instantly turned to dust, and even the protective shields erected by Fang Hong, Su Shan, and Azure Emperor were violently shaken.

Fortunately, Fang Hong, Su Shan, and Azure Emperor were all Mahayana experts; if it had been someone with lower cultivation, they would surely have been killed by the aftershocks.

As the aftershocks of the explosion slowly dissipated, the light from the Immortal Artifacts gradually dimmed.

Looking at the three Sect Ancestors again, their faces instantly turned pale, and their aura suddenly became much weaker.

Clearly, activating the Immortal Artifacts just now had consumed a large amount of their magical power.

They dared not delay, quickly took out some precious spirit pills, and rapidly popped them into their mouths.

The spirit pills melted upon entering their mouths, transforming into pure Origin Qi that surged into their bodies, and their magical power began to recover rapidly.

However, looking at the Skull Masked Man's side, the situation was completely opposite.

That dark protective shield made of the insect swarm was completely unharmed under the full attack of the three Immortal Artifacts, still firmly enveloping him.

Black flames even ignited on the surface of the protective shield, the flames dancing and emitting a chilling aura, making him look even more terrifying.

"He's not dead."

"Retreat quickly."

Seeing this scene, the three Sect Ancestors were filled with horror and completely panicked.

The Immortal Artifacts were their ultimate trump card, and they had originally thought that with the power of the three Immortal Artifacts, even if they couldn't completely kill this Skull Masked Man, they could at least heavily injure him.

But now, even the Immortal Artifacts couldn't kill this man who controlled the Demon Locusts; they had no chance of winning at all.

The Three Sect Ancestors dared not hesitate for a moment and immediately unleashed their respective Divine Abilities.

They attempted to shatter the palace's space, opening a spatial rift so they could immediately escape this perilous place.

However, no matter how they cast their spells, the space within the palace remained completely still.

They couldn't break through the palace's blockade at all; not even a trace of a spatial rift appeared.

"Damn it. Why can't we break through?"

The voices of the three Sect Ancestors were filled with despair; they looked at the unmoving space, and their bodies began to tremble slightly.

Their escape route was blocked, and they felt the fear of death.

"Daoist Fang, this man is too dangerous; his strength far exceeds our expectations. Let's escape quickly."

Azure Emperor's expression was extremely grave; she vigilantly stared at the Skull Masked Man while transmitting a message to Fang Hong.

Su Shan stood beside Fang Hong, but found that Fang Hong remained very calm, without the slightest hint of panic on his face.

She couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and asked softly, "Husband, do you perhaps have a way to deal with that man?"

Fang Hong calmly replied, "I do have some methods that should be able to deal with him."

"Moreover, as you both just saw, this man has already sealed the entire Immortal Palace, so my Void Secret Technique cannot be used for now."

"Now we have no retreat; only by killing him can we leave this place."

Su Shan and Azure Emperor exchanged glances; at this moment, there was no other better option, so they could only choose to trust Fang Hong.

"Immortal Artifacts are powerful, but you are not true Immortals after all, and you cannot unleash the true power of an Immortal Artifact. To think of killing me with just this much power is simply wishful thinking."

Just then, the insect swarm's protective shield slowly opened, and the Skull Masked Man emerged completely unharmed, his voice carrying a hint of disdainful mockery.

As soon as his words fell, he fiercely waved both hands, once again manipulating the insect swarm around him to pounce towards the three Sect Ancestors.

"No, don't come over."

"Ahhhhh."

The three Sect Ancestors' magical power, which they had consumed to activate the Immortal Artifacts, had not yet fully recovered.

At this moment, they didn't have enough magical power to use the Immortal Artifacts to protect themselves again. Facing the swarming Demon Locusts, they had no ability to resist and could only let out desperate roars.

As soon as the Demon Locusts pounced on them, they began to frantically devour them, and the heart-wrenching pain made them scream in agony.

Their voices echoed in the empty main hall, sounding particularly harsh.

"Boy, why aren't you using your proud Void Law anymore? Is it because you can't use it?"

The Skull Masked Man slowly turned his head, his gaze falling on Fang Hong, his tone full of teasing, as if he were playing with his prey.
