Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Lei Yongtao mumbled something, not wanting to deal with this weirdo Xiao Yu anymore.

Boom!

Suddenly, terrifying lightning erupted from him, and with a raised battle axe, his entire body shot out like a bullet, chopping towards the distant demons.

Lin Zheyu was unwilling to be outdone.

Dark purple energy spread out from his body, and with a slight sway, he vanished from the spot.

Rumble!

Boom boom boom!

Roar roar roar!

Roar roar!

Within the Demon God Barrier, the battle between the creatures of this world and the demons had reached an intense stage.

Even the cultivators at the perimeter of the Demon God Barrier were embroiled in a harsh battle.

A massive wave of demons poured out from the space-time rift, intercepted by the talented strong ones outside the rift.

Then intercepted again by the foundation establishment experts in the middle region.

Only a small number of demons managed to reach the outskirts, but their number was still considerable.

After all, most cultivators on the outskirts were young and lesser in rank, tagging along with elders from their family or sect, trying their luck.

Luckily, they had powerful protectors from their sect or family, so there wasn’t much danger.

Splurt—

Roar roar!

Golden blade light flashed by, and a terrifying demon, akin to an alien creature, was cleaved in half with a splurt.

”The aura emanating from the space-time node is getting more stable, is this hunt going to conclude?”

Lin Zheyu looked towards Ji Zitong not far away, curiously asking.

He had anticipated it would be dangerous, but up until now, apart from several encounters with demons comparable to the Golden Elixir Layer, he hadn’t faced any real threat.

”Indeed, it’s about to end soon.”

”Mulan, are you still holding up?”

Ji Zitong glanced towards Soi Mulan, who was panting beside her, asking with concern.

By now, most were utterly exhausted, only Lin Zheyu, Bai Lin, and Lei Yongtao seemed in better shape.

Among them, Lin Zheyu was in the best condition, followed by Lei Yongtao, and then Bai Lin.

Although Lei Yongtao was a cultivator, he followed the path of body refining, and his physique was tremendously sturdy. Coupled with the powerful support of magical artifacts, his consumption wasn’t as hefty.

”I can still hold on a bit longer.”

Soi Mulan exhaled deeply, saying.

She specialized in the way of arrays, seldom proactively slaying demons, mostly attacking and defending by controlling ground arrays.

Controlling arrays consumed a huge amount of spirit.

”I’ll handle what’s next, Mulan, you can take a break.” Ji Ziyang came over and said.

Ji Ziyang’s condition was alright, not as fatigued as Ji Zitong and Soi Mulan.

The mysterious aura enveloping him was equally fearsome, only slightly inferior to Lin Zheyu.

”Alright.”

Soi Mulan didn’t insist, her spirit was really struggling.

”I thought it would be very perilous, didn’t expect it to end so quickly.”

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

”That’s because you’re strong enough, if it were ordinary cultivators, they’d be exhausted to death by now.”

”Look at Mr. Tu Yuan, and Mr. Zitong, not everyone is as absurdly strong as you.”

Lei Yongtao’s hearing was sharp, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes, saying.

Not far away, Tu Yuan, Ji Zitong, Soi Mulan, and even Bai Lin all showed expressions of agreement.

Their faces were filled with exhaustion, their spiritual power tremendously depleted, and their spirits equally worn.

If it didn’t end soon, they would have to change strategies, switch from attacking to defending, relying on arrays for a solid defense, sustaining until the situation was over.

”Thanks to Mr. Xiao this time, without him slaying so many demons, we’d already be forced to activate the defensive function of arrays, guarding them tightly.”

Ji Zitong smiled and said.

Among the seven of them, Ji Ziyang was the strongest, Lin Zheyu could sense Ji Ziyang had already grasped some sort of Power of Rules, his strength was incredibly terrifying.

Among everyone, Ji Ziyang had killed the most demons, followed by Lin Zheyu, third was Lei Yongtao, Ji Zitong was fourth.

If it hadn’t been for Lin Zheyu’s impressive performance, slaying large numbers of demons, the rest wouldn’t have lasted this long.

”It’s almost over, everyone make a final effort.”

”Dammit, participated in so many activities, this is the first time I’ve lasted from the start to the end.”

”All thanks to Mr. Xiao this time.”

”Haha, I feel like I’ve got that Six-Thunder Pattern Golden Elixir nailed!”

Lei Yongtao sensed the vast, mysterious aura brewing in the array, couldn’t help but laugh heartily, saying.

This time, the number of demons slain was astonishing, so many demon blood and Destruction of Evil Spirits, once sacrificed, the obtained fragments of rules would be delightful.

”Then, I’ll congratulate Mr. Lei in advance.”

Tu Yuan emerged from the demonic soil, smiling and greeting Lei Yongtao.

”Hehe, you’re about there too.”

”Mr. Tu Yuan, are you planning to validate Golden Elixir once back, or chase another opportunity for rule fragments?”

Lei Yongtao looked at Tu Yuan, smiling as he asked.

They all knew each other well, having been at Foundation Establishment Peak for decades, unable to drag for much longer.

”No, I’ve been ready for Golden Elixir for a while now, I plan to validate Golden Elixir once back.”

Tu Yuan shook his head and said.

With that, his form flickered and once again merged into the demonic soil.

Boom!

Not far, the battle axe in Lei Yongtao’s hand erupted with brilliant lightning, cleaving the nearest demon into two.

Seeing this, Lin Zheyu also prepared to continue fighting.

Unintentionally, he raised his head, looking towards the direction of the space-time node, where the golden alms bowl and giant Buddha hand still existed.

”Maybe, this is a human-controlled demon hunting event!”

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

He sensed that the powers like Buddhism, Great Wei, Nine Nether Sect, Ancient Demon, and even the Barbarian Race were not as irreconcilable as imagined.

Compared to the grudges between them, the invading demons were the true enemy of creatures in this world.
