The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 1122: Chapter 1102: Ocher Immortal Slaying Bracelet

On Five Dragon Mountain, the spirit light of the large teleportation array continuously flickered.

With each flash of spirit light, numerous cultivators emerged from the magic altar like a tide, most being strongholds under the Xuan Yuan Celestial Alliance’s thirty-two factions.

Outside the celestial alliance, the number of Xian Dao strongholds who came to ”expel demons and defend the Dao” was not insignificant. There were disciples from major immortal sects, formidable rogue cultivators with well-informed sources, and a variety of non-human alien tribes... As time passed, more and more cultivators from different backgrounds would gather around the Corpse Mountain Range.

After resting briefly on the mountain, these Xian Dao strongholds would then engage in various small battlefields in batches.

In places across the Corpse Mountain Range where teleportation arrays had not yet been destroyed by heavenly demons, one could directly teleport through formations. Where teleportation arrays or formations were destroyed, they would rely on the Taihua Mirror in the hands of Jade Spring Fairy to convey them!

Just like when Jade Spring Fairy campaigned against the Corpse Mountain Range back then, at this moment, the Taihua Mirror hung high above Five Dragon Mountain, its spirit light dazzling and its immortal charm profound.

However, unlike how the Demonic Gate controlled a thread of space-time Dao, in locations where no Treasure Mirror replicas had been set up, Jade Spring Fairy had to expend large amounts of mana to teleport a group of cultivators to the designated battlefield using the spirit light of the mirror.

At that time, the cultivators in the battlefield would need to build mirror platforms and set up Treasure Mirrors themselves to freely traverse the Mirror Realm!

...

Near the Seventy-Two Immortal Mountains, at the northern slope foot region of Gourd Mountain.

The Taihua Mirror’s light flashed by, akin to sunlight dispersing dark clouds, piercing through the dense, viscous Demonic Qi, landing on a relatively flat mountain terrain.

Then, a figure glowing with magic treasure and celestial arts appeared: Chen Mengze, along with over a thousand Chi Yan cultivators with Spirit Sea Realm and Golden Core Realm cultivation, flew out from the mirror light. The Taihua Mirror’s light appeared to have exhausted its potency, slowly dimming and dissipating!

Chen Mengze removed the Ice Soul hairpin from her bun, infused a strand of ice-clear mana, and suddenly a cold aura exploded outward, freezing all low-class minor Heavenly Demons within several hundred miles into ice slag. Then, she summoned a treasure ship styled similarly to the Heaven Patrolling Boat House, carrying everyone swiftly toward the designated location.

Their target was the subsidiary courtyard of the Spirit Beast Sect at Yuquan Immortal Mountain.

Back in the day, when Jade Spring Fairy battled against Hollow Venerable, the Spirit Beast Sect also contributed significantly, earning massive merit points. Subsequently, the Spirit Beast Sect exchanged these merit points for ownership of the foot of the north slope of Gourd Mountain, establishing a subsidiary courtyard here, raising over ten types of low-class Spirit Beasts, totaling over a million heads.

Not long after fourteen demon caves descended upon the Corpse Mountain Range, the Spirit Beast Sect’s subsidiary courtyard was breached. The sect disciples caring for the Spirit Beasts either became food resources for Heavenly Demons or escaped back to the sect through the teleportation array.

Yet, the million Spirit Beasts could not escape and fell entirely into the hands of Heavenly Demons!

Given the traits of the Heavenly Demon race, they could devour blood food to enhance themselves at speeds far surpassing normal cultivators, but digesting blood food also required a certain amount of time.

Timing indicates that these million Spirit Beasts were not yet entirely consumed by the Heavenly Demons, at least half remain.

Moreover, Spirit Beasts reared by immortal sects essentially possessed tender meat, difficult-to-awaken gnosis, and gentle dispositions. More importantly, each Spirit Beast embodied extremely pure, dense blood-energy mana... If the occupying heavenly demons were to digest all the low-class Spirit Beasts, they could generate hundreds of Class IV Heavenly Demons or over ten Class V Heavenly Demons.

Even if they didn’t cultivate high-class heavenly demons but merely allowed enough Class I primal heavenly demons to corrupt and devour Spirit Beasts to elevate their realm and forcibly sacrifice themselves, the leaked primality of heavenly demons could corrode a sizeable area, transforming it into a Heavenly Demon Zone.

Therefore, Chen Mengze and over a thousand Chi Yan cultivators were dispatched here.

The primary goals are threefold.

Firstly, eliminate as many heavenly demons here as possible to prevent them from growing stronger.

Secondly, since the Spirit Beast Sect’s original teleportation array was destroyed by heavenly demons, they need to rebuild a formation point here and set up Taihua Mirror replicas to thwart the movement of heavenly demons on Gourd Mountain, preventing further spread of the demon disaster.

Thirdly, use the Mirror Realm to transport all surviving Spirit Beasts back to Five Dragon Mountain for replenishing our side’s spiritual item resources.

Chen Mengze and others drove the large treasure ship toward the Spirit Beast Sect’s subsidiary courtyard, alarming the small and large heavenly demons camped there. The Demonic Qi surged like a tide, and terrifyingly spirited heavenly demons swarmed up, riding on Demon Clouds towards the treasure ship to attack... In total, three Class V heavenly demons, comparable to Divine Bridge Realm, over a hundred Class IV heavenly demons, and below-Class IV low-class heavenly demons swarmed in endless numbers!

”Boom!”

”Boom, boom-boom!”

One after another, magical abilities and heavenly demon artifacts fell upon the treasure ship like hailstones.

Though this treasure ship was equipped with defense formations, within Chi Yan Sect, it was only an ordinary type of carriage artifact, and its formation prohibitions were far less powerful than those of the Heaven Patrolling Boat House and Jade Wheel Palace, unable to withstand the bombardment from so many high-class heavenly demons.

Before long, the transparent barrier covering the treasure ship shattered and melted like ice blocks.

Instead of consuming spirit stones on the ship to reactivate the defense barrier, Chen Mengze summoned the lower-grade spiritual treasure ”Ocher Immortal Slaying Bracelet”!

This treasure originally belonged to the Seven-Class Thousands Insects Evil Corpse, the Demon True Immortal Hollow Venerable, and was bestowed upon the Tiger Demon Shan Hao of the Hou Corpse Cave to enhance his strength, facilitating easier subjugation of the demons and monsters as well as other strongholds on Five Dragon Mountain.
