The First Immortal of Destiny

“There is another possibility… The Immortal Refining Method of the Celestial Feather Sect might have reached perfection!” Shen Mo pondered to himself while repairing the damaged Dao sword.

The Immortal Refining Method of the lower sect of Celestial Feather and that of the upper sect originate from the same source, both stemming from the Immortal Feather Patriarch, a Divine Immortal with profound foundation and a long lifespan to study and improve the Immortal Refining Method; if this method is indeed flawed and difficult to create “Immortals,” how would the Immortal Feather Upper Sect be drawn into a terrifying vortex involving universal will and the leftover evil of old days, leading to the extermination of the sect, including the Immortal Feather Patriarch?

In other words, if Spirit Feather Master and other cultivators of the lower sect adhered to this method, they might indeed forge a True Immortal Realm powerhouse, only to face unpredictable changes at the last moment, such as the uncontrollable True Immortal within the coffin encountering an Immortal Tribulation, leading to the complete failure of the Immortal Refining Plan!

If this were the case, even if Shen Mo mastered the entire Immortal Refining Method, it would be of no use, unable to alter the demise of the Feather Realm.

“Unfortunately, the space-time during the fall of the Celestial Feather Sect was sealed, and the Feather Realm completely fell into the Death Ghost Realm, even Guan Ling couldn’t spy the truth. Otherwise, I could formulate corresponding strategies based on different outcomes!”

Without crucial information, any plan is difficult to ensure success.

After careful consideration, Shen Mo finally decided to take a bold gamble…

The Basic Destiny of Luck had already been enhanced to Purple quality; under the Heavenly Machine Protection, the luck of related people wouldn’t be too bad, possibly betting on a “variable”!

He remained expressionless, yet his five senses began to focus on the Formation that shrouded the surroundings and the Creation Immortal Coffin in midair.

If the Gecko False Body were here, Shen Mo would naturally have no concerns, as the primal Essence and Qi stored in the false body would burn completely, unleashing peak power, sufficient to kill Spirit Feather Master and destroy the Creation Immortal Coffin, even if it only lasted for a brief moment.

However, his current “Demonic Creature Incarnation” only holds the cultivation of Golden Core Realm, completely losing the spell effects of Gecko Divine Skill, making it not the best vessel; even if all primal power would burn, it might only kill a Divine Bridge, unable to harm Spirit Feather Master nor touch the top-grade spiritual treasure Creation Immortal Coffin or the True Immortal within!

“I can make some adjustments on this Thunder Creation Array.”

Every move of Shen Mo was under the surveillance of Long Zesheng of the Celestial Feather Sect, a Divine Bridge; this person is a Grade six Array Master, whose sense would detect even the slightest change to the Formation.

Therefore, he didn’t intend to directly tamper with the Formation, but planned to make some arrangements during the opportunity to repair the damaged Dao sword in the seven Thunder Attracting Swords!

Originally, a Grade VII Forgemaster and two Grade VI Forgemasters stationed in Creation Hall joined several Array Masters in exploring the golden stone pillars driven into the earth veins; those left behind included Feng Yu and Li Miaoshou, who were only Grade V Forgemasters without very high instrument Tao skills—if some adjustments were made to the Thunder Attracting Sword, they likely wouldn’t notice anything… it is now undoubtedly a rare opportunity.

Buzz!

Buzz Buzz!

Shen Mo’s hands flew, casting seals and engraving the damaged spiritual marks on the repaired sword body.

Soon, the Thunder Attracting Sword regained its previous immortal charm, appearing no different from a brand-new magic artifact, except no one noticed the slight changes in several spots of the sword’s original spiritual marks!

After more than half a month, the twenty-six damaged Thunder Attracting Swords within the Thunder Creation Array, under the “diligent” repairs by Shen Mo and two others, became completely intact, restoring the array’s full power, continuously drawing thunder power and channeling it into the Creation Immortal Coffin.

“Good work, here is your reward from the sect!”

Long Zesheng used spells to retrieve the purple clouds, jade slip, and unused repair spiritual materials, but also handed out a pile of middle-grade Spirit Stones and several bottles of Grade IV Elixirs, divided into three parts according to the number of repaired Dao swords by Shen Mo and the others.

“We merely played a minor role. The patriarch, Uncle Long, and other elders have long sat in Creation Hall, exhausting energy and form for our sect’s ten-thousand-year plan. They are truly hard-working.” Artifact Hall’s head Feng Yu hurriedly bowed and stated.

“Hahaha, Nephew Feng…”

Long Zesheng was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed, flipping his hand to reveal a delicate Compass full of runes.

Then, holding the Compass in one hand, he rapidly cast seals with the other, pouring his Mana into it like a flood, causing the Compass to flicker continuously with spirit light and emit strange clicking sounds!

However, his efforts were in vain.

The entire Thunder Creation Array emitted thunderous explosions, thunder light rampaging, the drawn thunder power no longer flowing towards the Creation Immortal Coffin, instead steadily gathering at the first Thunder Attracting Sword repaired by Shen Mo.

Amidst the piercing thunder and sword shrieks, this sword burst forth with a glaring thunder light, exploding instantly!

The exploding thunder then drew down more thunder filled with savage destructive power from the Nine Heavens, causing the sky to be swiftly filled with thunder light and fiery snakes; more and more lightning struck the Thunder Creation Array, followed by Shen Mo’s second, third, fourth… up to the seventh Thunder Attracting Swords exploding sequentially, triggering more violent thunder crashing towards the array.

Soon, the Thunder Creation Array seemed to reach its limit, and an unaltered Thunder Attracting Sword exploded into a thunder light, followed by the ninth, tenth, eleventh, with more and more swords exploding, attracting yet more thunder crashing towards the array, further intensifying the sword blasts.

Twenty swords, fifty, a hundred, five hundred… in the brief blink of an eye, over a thousand Thunder Attracting Swords exploded subsequently.

Boundless thunder light formed an ocean of lightning, amidst the flashing thunder made the sky and earth change color, as if to swallow the entire world completely…

Under the dazzling thunder light, Feng Yu and Li Miaoshou’s faces appeared extremely pale, despite being Golden Core True Masters, their faces were covered in sweat, displaying terrified and distorted expressions, they were ordered to repair Thunder Attracting Swords, now the whole Thunder Creation Array malfunctioned, they could not escape responsibility!

After failing to control the array using the Compass, Long Zesheng cast a spell to detain Shen Mo and the others, then he rose in escaping light, rushing into the Thunder Creation Array.

Only, not only did he fail to halt the trend of the array’s collapse, but he was also struck by countless raging thunderbolts, causing charred smoke to rise from his scorched and stinky body!

Further infuriating him was the growing ocean of savage thunder, beginning to surge downwards.

First bearing the brunt were the mountain big arrays, each mountaintop like golden peaks and jade summits being engulfed by the thunder ocean, blasting out plumes of gold dust and jade powder, the mountain array patterns were instantly obliterated, followed by crashing towards the Creation Immortal Coffin amidst the rumbling sounds.
