Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons
Chapter 836 - 584: Who is Ambushing Whom

Chapter 836: Chapter 584: Who is Ambushing Whom

"This is ridiculous."

Deng Xiangjun put away his Dao Plate and looked ahead.

Among the Seven Sons of South Hong, he was a bit weaker, but he was still a Late Earth Realm Great Cultivator.

Moreover, his Late Earth Realm status was because he had only opened three Immortal Cities when he was at White Jade Capital.

After all, the original Seven Sects were not exceptional entities; otherwise, they wouldn’t have needed to form an alliance to found their sects for self-preservation. It was only due to a fortuitous coincidence that they rose suddenly, so how could there possibly be seven prodigies capable of opening four cities to become sect masters?

As the years passed,

Nanyang, Qing Yue, Ling Yue, and Heavenly Sword were not on the same level as the remaining three sects.

It was equivalent to dragging oneself and others forward.

With the help of these fellow disciples, although Deng Xiangjun’s realm remained stagnant, his foundation had become increasingly solid. In a real fight, he was still not inferior to a Perfection Earth Realm cultivator.

Moreover, in South Hong, he could still slightly utilize the power of a few other sects’ precious grounds, making him virtually unbeatable below the Heavenly Realm.

Yet even so, he still couldn’t understand why the other two fellow disciples had also found traces of Sect Master Shen.

Could there really exist such a mystical dharma in the world that would allow a Union Dao cultivator to shuttle back and forth across the vast South Hong and appear on several battlefields simultaneously?

What a joke!

If there were such a mystical method, why would there be any need to divide into the Four Hongs? The Northern Dragon Palace would simply take control of the entire Hongze—there would be absolutely no chance for the Seven Sons of South Hong or the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect to rise.

However—

Deng Xiangjun furrowed his brows tightly; he had indeed sensed the aura of a Great Demon’s demise, and did not dare rest for even a moment, hastily chasing after it.

Who other than Sect Master Shen could help the Seven Sects’ vassals slay a Great Demon?

What on earth was he chasing?

With this thought in mind, Deng Xiangjun hesitated for a moment and looked towards the direction of Xuan Yue City.

He had previously sensed a slightly terrifying aura and thought he had found Sect Master Shen, but now he felt a vague sense of unease in his heart.

"Hiss!"

Deng Xiangjun gritted his teeth and still dashed forward.

How crucial Shen Yi was to the Seven Sons of South Hong was self-evident; for that, even if it meant facing great risks, it was worth it.

At least to find out the current situation first.

With this thought, Deng Xiangjun cleared the clouds and mist, and charged forward with all his might!

However, as he neared that aura,

Deng Xiangjun’s expression turned quite grim; he glanced sideways at the surrounding clouds and mist, and found the area was covered with a faint frost. The bone-chilling cold even affected him as a Earth Realm cultivator.

"Huh."

He pinched his fingers slightly and summoned a ball of White Fire, swallowing it, and his complexion improved a lot.

By now, Deng Xiangjun was certain; the entity ahead was definitely not Sect Master Shen, because even if separated by heaven and earth, such a startling coldness was enough to turn the creatures below into lost souls.

He tried to conceal his aura more thoroughly, but his previous vigorous chasing had already brought him extremely close to the other party.

In the midst of the clouds, a withered figure gradually emerged.

Ragged and tattered clothes, as if they could be shredded by the wind at any moment, he stood quietly in place, looking this way.

"..."

Deng Xiangjun’s hand, which was moving the spell, slowly halted, and as his other hand just grasped the Dao Plate, he discovered that the plate was ice-cold, and a crack had silently formed on its smooth surface.

He swallowed quietly, his expression growing somber.

"Are you the Sect Master of the Seven Sons of South Hong?" The man in ragged clothes slowly protruded his upper body from the clouds, observed carefully for a moment, shook his head, and said, "I won’t eat you, don’t follow me."

As much as the Human Body Elixir was rare enough to make one’s mouth water, the Cold Mountain Ancestor was well aware of how close the relationship between the Seven Sects was.

Now that the Southern Dragon Palace was confronting three Heavenly Realm cultivators with Qi Family’s eldest son,

the land was full of his own provisions; there was absolutely no need to rush to consume this great elixir and provoke the anger and hatred of those sect masters onto himself.

Later, if these cultivators desperately abandoned the Dragon Palace to fight him to death, it would be rather unpleasant.

Deng Xiangjun couldn’t remember how many years it had been since he had heard such words from the mouth of a demon.

I won’t eat you...

"Huh."

He silently chewed on this phrase in his heart, feeling an inexplicable sourness rising within.

The world is too cruel to cultivators; if one’s path in youth is not well-trodden, one can only waste away in the long years, rarely having another chance to turn things around.

Although the words of this evil demon carried undisguised contempt, Deng Xiangjun had to admit that the other party was telling the truth—even if he gave his all in a fight, it would be difficult to survive in this monster’s hands.

This was a Great Demon, even stronger than Ji; truly comparable to a Mid Heavenly Realm!

Such a terrifying existence, even if it were in Western Hong, would definitely be among the top powerhouses, had quietly come to South Flood Land and was now, right in front of him, entering the territory of Nanyang Sect’s vassals so casually.

And he, Mr. Deng, being one of the Sect Masters of the Seven Sons of South Hong, after considering for a long time, couldn’t come up with any solution!

"Go ahead."

Cold Mountain Ancestor did not offer Deng Xiangjun a chance to react, and gently waved his hand, the clouds suddenly condensed, and Deng Xiangjun’s whole body seemed frozen, only able to watch as the gap between them quickly widened, separated by heaven and earth, until the sight of the Great Demon faded from view.

"Damn it!"
