Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 934: Chapter 468: Ten Thousand Souls Banner, Treasure from the Immortal Realm (2)

But fate always offers a glimmer of hope. Blood Beast Daoist and Soul Devourer Daoist have truly sparked a fierce battle over the Immortal Stone, fighting to the death, almost as if there’s no turning back.

Half an hour later, they will both suffer mutual defeat and serious injuries. Of course, as Void Refining Cultivators, their life force is robust, and they won’t die so easily.

After receiving such severe injuries, they chose to shake hands and make peace. However, if you choose to attack at this moment, there’s a chance to kill these two Refining Void Demon Cultivators.

To kill a Refining Void as Divinity Transformation is indeed a miraculous achievement, but if successful, you can not only avert disaster but also gain endless benefits. So what about Void Refining Cultivators? Find a flaw, and you can kill them just the same.”

”This.”

Perceiving this information, Jiang Fan raised an eyebrow.

He didn’t know if he was lucky or unlucky.

He just wanted to practice peacefully here until reaching Divinity Transformation Perfection.

Yet, he inexplicably encountered the battle of Refining Void Demon Cultivators here.

According to the information hinted by fate, if he doesn’t flee, when these two Refining Void Demon Cultivators stop fighting, they will target the nearby humans.

He himself would also be targeted and affected.

Undoubtedly, to these two demon cultivators, any human cultivator is like Spirit Medicine.

Once encountered, they would definitely kill without hesitation.

Who knows how many people have tragically died at the hands of these two demon cultivators.

The death of many villagers in Ice Lotus Village was caused by them.

”Fighting over the Immortal Stone?”

”Does that mean this place contains Immortal Stones?!”

”If so, the Ice Prison holds extraordinary resources.”

Jiang Fan squinted his eyes.

In the Ancient Era of the Void Realm, Immortal Stones were incredibly important strategic resources.

They are energy crystals from the Immortal Realm.

The Mortal World doesn’t have Immortal Stones.

All Immortal Stones fell from the Immortal Realm and were obtained by Mortal Cultivators.

Each Immortal Stone is as valuable as an Exotic Treasure to a cultivator.

They are so precious because Immortal Stones are very special.

The energy contained in one Immortal Stone can compare to the energy of a billion Spirit Stones.

In terms of value, a single Immortal Stone is more precious than a billion Spirit Stones.

In the Ancient Era, not even billions of Spirit Stones could buy a single Immortal Stone.

Immortal Stones are so precious because they have three characteristics.

The first characteristic is automatic recovery; as long as the energy inside the Immortal Stone isn’t exhausted, it can devour the surrounding Spiritual Qi to restore its original energy.

So theoretically, each Immortal Stone is like a Spirit Vein, continuously generating energy, like a battery that can keep charging.

This characteristic made Immortal Stones the energy source for many long-distance Teleportation Arrays in the Ancient Era of the Void Realm. Using Spirit Stones as a power source would consume an unimaginable amount.

The second characteristic is that it contains Immortal Qi, greatly beneficial to cultivators. Long-term devouring of Immortal Qi has the effect of Washing Marrow and Cutting Meridians and can quickly enhance a cultivator’s cultivation.

Reaching Refining Void and Integration, cultivation progress becomes extremely slow. Sometimes, centuries or even millennia pass without much progress, or even stagnation.

But with the aid of Immortal Stones, cultivation speed increases several fold, which is why many high-tier cultivators desire Immortal Stones.

The third characteristic is the ability to help break through bottlenecks; this is related to Immortal Qi. Devouring Immortal Qi during cultivation makes it easier for cultivators to pass crucial barriers.

This single characteristic has attracted countless cultivators.

Many high-tier cultivators become stuck at a realm, unable to progress, but with an Immortal Stone, there’s a chance for further advancement.

These three characteristics combined make Immortal Stones incredibly precious, comparable to Exotic Treasures.

Unfortunately, such strategic resources as Immortal Stones aren’t easily obtained.

Without enough opportunities, acquiring Immortal Stones is impossible.

”No wonder those two demon cultivators are fighting.”

”They won’t hesitate to pay any price for Immortal Stones.”

”In the Ancient Era, countless powers fought endlessly over Immortal Stones.”

Jiang Fan squinted his eyes.

Undoubtedly, he would choose the second path.

The first path could avoid danger and escape the pursuit of the Refining Void Demon Cultivators.

But he would completely lose the opportunity.

This is an Immortal Stone, a precious energy crystal that only the Immortal Realm can produce.

If he missed this opportunity, who knows when he’d find another Immortal Stone?

Of course, if it becomes impossible, he wouldn’t foolishly confront the enemy directly.

But that wasn’t the current situation.

The battle between the two Refining Void Demon Cultivators led to mutual defeat.

This was the perfect opportunity for him to take action and kill these two demon cultivators.

Moreover, killing them would avenge the deaths of those villagers.

It was truly a two-birds-with-one-stone situation.

Whoosh!

Having thought of this, Jiang Fan didn’t hesitate and flashed out of the cave.

At the same time, he activated the Celestial Cicada Spirit Leaf, concealing all his energy, and flew toward that mysterious valley.

......

Meanwhile, in a nameless valley.

Blood Beast Daoist and Soul Devourer Old Demon faced each other in mid-air from a distance.

Both were seasoned old demons, highly experienced in battle and extremely ruthless.

”Soul Devourer Old Demon, I didn’t expect you to attack me for some Immortal Stones.”

”You’re truly ruthless.”

”Does our years of friendship mean less than these Immortal Stones?”

Blood Beast Daoist glared malevolently at Soul Devourer Old Demon, emanating a frightening Evil Qi.

His formidable divine sense enveloped all around, seeking the flaw in Soul Devourer Old Demon’s defenses.

Once found, he could deliver a lethal strike.

”Friendship? What friendship do we have? It’s just mutual benefit.”

”If I hadn’t made a move, you probably would have. I just acted first.”

”Stop pretending, old man.”

”So many Immortal Stones would tempt even an Integration Cultivator, let alone us.”

”This duel will decide superiority and life or death.”

”Let’s see who among us can claim these Immortal Stones.”

Soul Devourer Old Demon sneered coldly.

He had long seen through Blood Beast Daoist’s nature, knowing the other’s viciousness was no less than his own.

Blood Beast Daoist probably intended to ambush him; he just struck first.

Unfortunately, the other was too cautious. Even if he attacked first, he couldn’t inflict significant lethal damage.

But that didn’t matter.

If he could kill the opponent, the Immortal Stones would be his.

It would be unimaginable wealth.

Securing them would allow him to advance his cultivation to Refining Void Perfection.

In the future, becoming an Integration Cultivator isn’t impossible.

Integration Cultivators are like Great Powers in the Ice Prison, controlling vast territories.

Only by becoming an Integration Cultivator can one be considered a truly powerful figure in the Ice Prison.

Otherwise, even a Refining Void Cultivator is just a slightly larger ant.

”Heh, Soul Devourer Old Demon, you’re too arrogant.”

”Do you think your Ten Thousand Souls Banner is powerful enough to attack me?”

”My Blood-devouring Demon Sword is not to be underestimated either.”

Blood Beast Daoist produced his demon artifact—the Blood-devouring Demon Sword, a blood-colored demon sword engraved with countless skulls, as if devouring the blood and flesh of countless beings, forged from strange materials.

One hit can continuously devour the enemy’s vital energy until they’re reduced to ashes.

With this demon artifact, he doesn’t know how many powerful enemies he’s slain.

Of course, Soul Devourer Old Demon’s demon artifact, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, is also impressive, a treasure of Demon Dao.

It’s a growth-type demon artifact, capable of devouring countless souls for growth.

It can also launch soul attacks.

Ignoring many defenses on an enemy.

Once the Ten Thousand Souls Banner is activated, countless evil spirits bite and devour the enemy’s soul.

It’s truly unstoppable.
