Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan

Chapter 906: Chapter 912: Forced

”Eh?”

But in the next instant, Li Zhirui vanished on the spot, drawing the attention and curiosity of the two.

”Interesting!”

”How did that kid disappear?”

However, the most crucial task at the moment was to defeat the opponent in front of them. They immediately regathered their focus and once again engaged in intense combat.

The attacks from the Integration Great Power were extremely fierce. With each move he executed, the surrounding Chaotic Spiritual Energy was overturned, creating a true vacuum area.

”Myriad Snake, just surrender obediently. You’re no match for me!”

”Hmph!”

The Myriad Snake laughed coldly and said, ”Red Phoenix, what good is verbal prowess?”

Having said that, with a flick of his spell, the surrounding Chaotic Spiritual Energy rapidly gathered. Countless kinds of Spirit Snakes emerged from the void, hissing dangerously with their fangs dripping venom occasionally, eroding the void into tiny black holes that, despite being fleeting, were enough to show the terror of the venom.

Red Phoenix was not afraid in the slightest. His fingers danced, and amidst the flashing Spirit Light, dozens of red Fire Phoenixes formed out of thin air. Accompanied by a series of clear and loud phoenix cries, they swooped toward the dense Spirit Snakes.

Screech!

The Fire Phoenixes proudly cried toward the heavens, and the Spirit Snakes appeared as if they were under a freezing spell, stiff and unable to move.

Had these Spirit Snakes not been merely condensations of Spiritual Energy without their own consciousness, they would have already been prostrate.

The Fire Phoenixes lowered their heads slightly, emitting streams of firelight, quickly forming a sea of fire that enveloped tens of thousands of Spirit Snakes.

Myriad Snake watched the scene with a cold expression, mentally controlling the Spirit Snakes to spray venom recklessly.

A hissing sound of mutual dissolution rose, and plumes of poison gas wafted above the sea of fire. Suddenly, black spots appeared on the bodies of the Fire Phoenixes, who cried out in pain.

Taoist Red Phoenix did not dare to be careless. He produced a three-inch red Treasure Bead that instantly burst with countless beams of Spirit Light, protecting the Fire Phoenixes from the poison gas.

Then, with a thought, nine tokens flew out rapidly, forming a Great Array in the blink of an eye and trapping Myriad Snake inside.

This was a set of extremely rare Magical Treasures. Although they were not Red Phoenix’s Life-bound Magic Treasures, they were highly compatible with the Laws he mastered.

”Not right!” Red Phoenix’s pupils suddenly dilated. Only after setting up the Great Array did he realize that something was amiss.

”Hahaha, I’m not facing you for the first time; how could I not be prepared for your Nine Flames Burning Token?” Myriad Snake’s voice came from the outside. Then, with a roar, the residual Spirit Snakes in the formation, as well as the clone, all exploded.

Rumble—

The huge rumbling sound spread through the void, and the thick poison gas, which contained countless types of toxins, enveloped Red Phoenix.

The poison gas continually invaded Red Phoenix’s body, and even though he used Mana and Magical Treasures to raise Defensive Spiritual Light, he could not isolate it. He could only endure the corrosion of the poison gas.

”Hahaha, Red Phoenix, as long as you hand over half of the Tianhua Grand Dream Yin Fruit, I will give you the antidote and spare you the pain of the Myriad Snakes devouring your heart,” Myriad Snake laughed maniacally.

The reason for their great battle was a coincidence when they simultaneously discovered a piece of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures—an Eighth Rank Tianhua Grand Dream Yin Fruit!

Li Zhirui had once consumed a Fifth-order Great Illusionary Dream Fruit, which was its variant that grew in the Minor Thousand World and experienced a reduction in grade due to insufficient nourishment of Spiritual Energy.

The real Dream Fruit was a treasure sought after by all beings below the Immortal Realm in their dreams!

After consumption, it could construct a world as real as life based on one’s thoughts, maintaining a thousand years of dreams, where one could continuously comprehend the Laws and elevate their Realm.

And the dream realm could evolve on its own based on the initial settings and continue to be comprehended even after one’s realm had improved, unlike the Great Illusionary Dream Fruit, which could only repeat the same dreamscape over and over again.

When waking from the dream, the insights gained would completely surface!

That is to say, if you raised your cultivation to the Great Vehicle Realm during a thousand-year dream, when you woke up, your realm would indeed be that of the Great Vehicle!

However, since you hadn’t absorbed enough Spiritual Energy, your cultivation would still be at a standstill; all you’d need to do afterward was to properly polish your mana and get through the Thunder Tribulation, and you wouldn’t be hindered by bottlenecks anymore.

What’s special about the Tianhua Grand Dream Yin Fruit is that it is divided into yin and yang halves, and only by taking both at the same time can its full effects be utilized.

If consumed separately, the effects would be greatly reduced, only maintaining a dreamscape for three hundred years.

That was why Myriad Snake and Taoist Red Phoenix each obtained half of the fruit.

Both of them sought to break through to the Great Vehicle Realm with the help of the Tianhua Grand Dream Yin Fruit, and as much as possible, continue to elevate their realm, striving to transcend the tribulation and become immortals early on.

If they only had half, they might not even be able to break through to the Great Vehicle Realm, considering they were only at the Early Nascent Soul Stage at present. Crossing a Great Realm in three hundred years would be extremely difficult.

Naturally, they would try everything to snatch the other half of the Grand Dream Yin Fruit from each other.

Boom!

Accompanied by an explosion, a massive column of fire shot into the sky, and from it emerged a ninety-nine-zhang-tall fiery giant, its face vaguely recognizable as Taoist Red Phoenix’s features.

”Have you lost your mind?!”

Myriad Snake cried out in disbelief, stunned by the scene before him.

The Integration Realm is about refining the body and spirit with the Primal Qi and the Laws of heaven and earth, and the hallmark of perfection is the Hundred Zhang Dharma!

But Taoist Red Phoenix was only at the Early Nascent Soul Stage, far from perfection; he shouldn’t be able to manifest a true form of Dharma that was more than a dozen or twenty zhang in size, let alone this ninety-nine zhang.

This could only mean that Taoist Red Phoenix was forcibly invoking it!

The price would either be the frantic squandering of one’s own mana, which could barely be sustained for a few breaths, or it would be the burning of one’s lifespan!

Obviously, Taoist Red Phoenix had chosen the latter.

Boom!

Taoist Red Phoenix didn’t respond. With a move, he brought about a world-ending inferno, with meteorites falling from the sky and red lotuses blossoming in The Void. The surrounding Void seemed to boil from the heat, becoming incredibly scorching.

The attack was so swift that, despite Myriad Snake’s preparedness, he could not fully dodge it and was caught by the aftermath, thrown backwards, spitting a mouthful of black blood with a retch.

But Taoist Red Phoenix’s attack was far from as simple as it seemed; his assault carried the terrifying Fire Evil Qi, which rampaged inside Myriad Snake, wreaking havoc.

”Taoist Red Phoenix! I’ll fight you to the end!”

Myriad Snake roared, stirring up his vast mana until the atmosphere around him became extremely viscous, almost solidifying.

But in the next instant, Myriad Snake transformed into a beam of black light, fleeing desperately into the distance.

Although he only possessed half of the Tianhua Dream Yin Fruit, with its effects significantly diminished, it was still better than fighting a lunatic to the death.

Unless Myriad Snake followed Taoist Red Phoenix’s example, there was no way he could stand a chance against him.

Roar!

Taoist Red Phoenix, furious at being toyed with, bellowed repeatedly without hesitation and gave chase.
