Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 1077: Chapter 523: Overcoming the Calamity, Gaining a Second-Grade Opportunity_2

It’s merely a human cultivator who has just entered the early-stage Void Refining, completely unaware of the terrifying power of demons.

It would let this boy before its eyes experience the terror of an ancient demon.

It also served to let the beings of this era feel the true arrival of demonic majesty.

Boom~~

In an instant, Jiang Fan activated his Life Talisman—the Heaven-Collecting Gourd Talisman.

Immediately, an Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman was instantly formed.

A massive amount of Primordial Magical Power was infused into this Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman, causing the edges of the talisman to ignite with a fine, glassy light. The character ”Gourd,” engraved in ancient script on the talisman’s surface, suddenly awakened—inky patterns traced along the paper fibers, projecting a translucent gourd shadow in mid-air. Around the shadow, delicate celestial brilliance descended like stars.

The next moment, the Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman erupted into a swirling golden light, forming a bronze gourd about ten feet tall out of thin air:

The gourd glowed with a warm, ancient bronze color, without a trace of rust on its belly; instead, blue-gold immortal patterns intricately wound around it, like living creatures. Initially, fine cloud patterns wrapped around the gourd’s neck, slowly weaving into twining branches. Among the branches, star-like specks of rice could be seen, with each pattern gently veiling a faint luminescent radiance, as if ancient secret powers flowed within. On closer inspection, fragments of a starry river faintly glimmered within the patterns, shrouded in a mystery one dared not gaze directly upon.

An unimaginable mighty force swept across the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, impacting a million kilometers of surrounding void.

”Damn, this is an Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman.”

”And it’s also one of the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans, the Heaven-Collecting Gourd Talisman?!”

”Could it be that you’re a remnant of the Primordial Talisman Sect?”

”Otherwise, how could you know of such an Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman?”

At the sight of this, the Six-winged Tiger Demon’s pupils contracted, feeling its hair stand on end, as a massive threat loomed.

As an ancient demon that had opposed the Primordial Talisman Sect for a long time, it was impossible not to know the power of an Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman.

Each Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman contained terrifying power, capable of threatening any demon.

But to truly master an Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman, how could it be so easy?

Even in the Ancient Era, during the peak of the Primordial Talisman Sect, not many cultivators could master them.

This boy before its eyes was just an early-stage Void Refining Cultivator, how could he master such an Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman?!

”Roar!”

The Six-winged Tiger Demon immediately let out a roar, its scarlet slit-like pupils fixed on the bronze gourd, its violent eyes brimming with instinctive fear — with each cycle of immortal patterns flowing over the gourd’s belly, the surrounding air gained more of the sanctified power to suppress demonic Qi, and the black mist around it had begun to dissipate, with scales emitting scorched white smoke under the shine of celestial radiance.

It sensed that this human cultivator was likely not an ordinary Void Refining Cultivator.

But before the Six-winged Tiger Demon could turn and flee, the gourd’s mouth suddenly lit up with a crescent arc of immortal light, and an overwhelming suction spread outward.

Debris and withered grass on the ground were swept into a counterclockwise vortex, with even the surrounding clouds being pulled toward the gourd’s mouth.

”Damn it.”

”Trying to trap me? It’s not that simple!”

The Six-winged Tiger Demon’s hair stood on end as it let out a roar that shook the valley, its six wings frantically flapping while its giant claws dug into the mountain rock, sparks flying from between its fingers, yet it was still dragged toward the gourd’s mouth by that invisible suction—

Its black armor plates shattered, revealing the blackened flesh beneath, but the wounds were instantly purified to white smoke upon contact with the immortal light; it tried to spew its life-force demon fire in resistance, yet as the fire neared the gourd’s mouth, it was absorbed into a wisp of green smoke without causing even the slightest ripple.

”Receive!”

Jiang Fan looked indifferently at the Six-winged Tiger Demon, as the vast Primordial Magical Power from within him poured into the Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman.

If this ancient demon’s power had recovered a bit more, it might have taken some effort to deal with it.

But now that it had just freshly revived, it had very little demonic power within.

So dealing with it was countless times easier.

In just a moment, this demon which once dominated an era in ancient times was entirely drawn toward the gourd’s mouth like a puppet with cut strings: its massive form continuously shrank under the immortal light, its demonic wings pulverized into nothing, and its roars gradually swallowed by the suction within the gourd, leaving only a final brief wail before its entire body was drawn into that glassy light.

Once the Six-winged Tiger Demon was entirely absorbed, the immortal patterns on the bronze gourd gradually retracted, the blue-gold hue fading, ultimately becoming a dark gold mark quietly stamped at the gourd’s neck.

The gourd lightly swayed, the surrounding celestial brilliance receding like a tide, and then transformed into a stream of light across the sky, settling back into the caster’s palm—as one looked again at the gourd, it had reverted to palm size, with only the indistinct immortal pattern remaining on its belly.

”Not bad.”

Seeing this scene, Jiang Fan felt quite satisfied.

The Life Talisman he cultivated was indeed remarkably powerful.

It could effortlessly seal and capture cultivators of the same level, leaving the enemy almost defenseless.

Especially when dealing with such resilient demons; it was practically effortless.

”What’s going on? Where did the Six-winged Tiger Demon go?”

”You must be joking, this is too absurd. Is that all an ancient demon’s capable of?”

”Just for an instant, was it actually captured by this cultivator and taken into a gourd? This is still an ancient demon?”

”Fake, this six-winged tiger demon must be fake. How could a real ancient demon be so weak.”

”Indeed, I was wondering how this demon could be so easily captured, turns out it’s a fake demon.”

”Just now, I was really a bit fooled. If the legendary ancient demon could be captured in an instant, then there’s no point in joining the Demon Dao.”

”Isn’t that so? A real ancient demon can’t possibly be this worthless.”

Many cultivators of the Primordial Demon Sect were in heated discussion.

To be honest, they were quite startled by that scene, the kind that chills to the bone.

In order to resurrect the ancient demon, the Primordial Demon Sect had spent a tremendous price, along with invaluable resources.

Their goal was hoping the resurrected ancient demon could lead the Demon Dao to reforge its glory.

But now, the ancient demon was captured by the Righteous Dao in an instant, just like a chicken.

How could they possibly accept such absurdity?!

If this isn’t a fake demon, then who is the real fake demon?

”And you all, come on, get collected too.”

Jiang Fan glanced at this group of demon cultivators.

Their numbers weren’t many, just about dozens.

Among them were two or three Divinity Transformation Demon Cultivators.

But such a small number of demon cultivators, to himself, a Void Refining Cultivator, were mere ants.

They were simply not worth mentioning.

He moved his thoughts, once again condensing a new Heaven-Collecting Gourd Talisman.

In an instant, this group of demon cultivators from the Primordial Demon Sect was collected into the gourd.

”Is this the Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman? It’s truly too powerful.”

”It’s as if possessing an Immortal Artifact.”

”Sealing an ancient demon so easily.”

The Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal Cauldron was amazed upon seeing this.

It naturally sensed the terror of that ancient demon.

Even though the ancient demon was just resurrected, it wasn’t something ordinary cultivators could compare to.

Yet its master solved it effortlessly, a capability truly unimaginable.

Simultaneously, it knows this is the power of the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talisman.

If one hadn’t mastered such Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman, dealing with this ancient demon wouldn’t be simple.

”The power of the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talisman is naturally strong, otherwise it wouldn’t be called the Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman.”

”However, compared to the actual Thirty-Three Celestial Immortal Artifact, it’s still far off.”

”Yet its most important characteristic is being a talisman.”

”After all, Immortal Artifacts are unique, only one person can use them.”

”But talismans, could be refined into many, allowing many people to use.”

The Primordial Talisman Pen said with pride.

This is the unparalleled legacy of the Primordial Talisman Sect, incomparable to ordinary sect legacies.

”First, send away this ancient demon and the demon cultivators of the Primordial Demon Sect.”

”Otherwise, some anomalies might be detected.”

Jiang Fan immediately opened the Gate of the Void, returning to the Ice Prison in the Spirit Ruins Realm.

Indeed, once back in the Ice Prison, karma was completely severed.

Even an Immortal couldn’t track his aura.

Handling the group of demon cultivators and the ancient demon here shouldn’t pose any problem.

Boom~~

Suddenly, a message immersed deep into his sea of consciousness: ”Returning to the Primordial Ruins, you encountered the resurrected ancient demon and demon cultivators, after a deadly battle, finally sealed them, successfully passing a Death Tribulation, you earned fifty million Luck Points, and a Second-Grade Opportunity.”
