Eternal Emperor's Path to Ascension
Chapter 290 290: Death Of An Immortal, Tian Family's Motive

At that moment, an illusory entity flowed out of the Demon God's body. It was his Essence Soul.

He glared at Tian Yongheng with hatred as his body began to regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye, speaking viciously.

"Alright, alright, I'll let you know just how powerful the being who once brought the entire Immortal Cultivation World down to its knees is!"

However, the next second, Tian Yongheng swung the Primal Dao Sword again, and in an instant, his body was split apart again.

This time, the Sword Intent was so powerful that it directly destroyed all traces of his body, not even leaving a single drop of blood or piece of flesh behind.

Then, just with his soul, the Demom God released a powerful attack.

*Swoosh!*

However, before it could even touch Tian Yongheng, he waved the Primal Dao Sword again, and the terrifying Sword Qi directly scattered the Demonic Energy.

Seeing this, the face of the Demon God changed as he exclaimed, "It couldn't be, a Dharma Treasure!? A Dharma Treasure shouldn't exist in the Lower Realm!"

On the other side, beyond the Second Great Mortal World, several beings secretly watching all of this were stunned.

Even they, as Vagrant Immortals of the Upper Realm, had never wielded a Dharma Treasure for themselves.

Even the lowest Spiritual Grade Low-Rank Dharma Treasures weren't something that ordinary Vagrant Immortals could get ahold of.

They hesitated, wanting to take action themselves for the Dharma Treasure, but also afraid of the power the current wielder of this Dharma Treasure possessed.

Tian Yongheng ignored the Demon God's words, striking down once again, destroying his newly formed body once more.

It seems that Vagrant Immortals indeed do possess the characteristics of the Immortal Body.

He thought silently.

In fact, before arriving here, Tian Yongheng had been fighting against the Sword Venerable in the simulation for months on end, and his combat ability had improved to a terrifying extent.

He could basically completely control the power of the Primal Dao Sword, albeit he could only unleash around 50% without being seriously injured himself.

On the other hand, his experience of facing Vagrant Immortals had significantly increased, because the Sword Venerable also had the Immortal Body.

He understood it as the body becoming Immortal, the ability to revive instantly even after one's body had been blasted off into nothingness as long as the Essence Soul remained.

All Immortal Gods possessed the Immortal Body, no matter if they were Sword Immortals like the Sword Venerable or beings like the Archaic Forbidden Demon God before him.

In fact, for the first few seconds when he arrived here, he had already fought against the Demon God several times, and managed to kill the other party while just unleashing 40% of the Primal Dao Sword's power.

Killing meant destruction of both the body and the Essence Soul, rendering the Immortal Body ability ineffective.

*Swoosh!*

With another sword strike, the Demon God's body was blasted off into nothingness again.

Suddenly, Tian Yongheng gripped the hilt of the Primal Dao Sword tighter, and before the other party's body could regenerate this time, unleashed a devastating Sword Qi that shattered space and arrived before his Essence Soul.

"No! This can't be happening! I just reviv–"

Before he could finish his words, the Archaic Forbidden Demon God's Essence Soul was struck by the immeasurable Sword Qi.

*Boom!*

With a resounding boom that echoed throughout the entire island, void was torn apart as a hundred thousand mile long ravine formed below, splitting apart the clouds of the mortal world.

The lingering Sword Intent spread out immediately, destroying all Demons and demonic cultivators standing nearby.

The others had no choice but to take out their defensive Dharma Artifacts to barely save themselves from the onslaught of Sword Intent.

Some tried to probe the outcome of that last Sword Qi slash using their Divine Sense, but were stunned to discover that the lingering Sword Intent could even injure their Divine Sense!

One had to know that there were dozens of Half Immortals present there!

The Sword Intent capable of harming even the Divine Sense of Half Immortals had completely exceeded the Half Immortal Realm.

Even their eyes, capable of seeing hundreds of thousands of miles away, could not see beyond the Sword Intent, and just staring at it made them sting. Thus, they had no choice but to wait for the Sword Intent to dissipate.

Tian Yongheng also retracted the immense Supreme Sword Intent and floated in the air, looking down with an air of indifference.

Just now, the Demon God had obtained 5-Star hatred towards him. It eventually rose to 6-Star hatred.

However, now, the profile of the Archaic Forbidden Demon God had now disappeared from the relations tab. It indicated that the Demon God was already dead, in body and soul.

The other cultivators around them cast sidelong glanced towards him, but he ignored them all.

There were inevitably Qin and Tian Families present in the crowd, and almost all of their known top tier experts had come out. However, Tian Yongheng couldn't see Tian Zhaojun anywhere.

He guessed that Tian Zhaojun must be a kind of trump card of the Tian Family considering he came back from outer space the last time they met, hence he didn't make an appearance here.

At the same time, he had sensed the presence of countless Chosen Ones here. Well, most of them were technically not Chosen Ones anymore because their Providence had already reached its end.

It meant that they would no longer have as many opportunities and luck like before and would be like an ordinary cultivator.

However, his strength had already far surpassed these individuals, so the system did not notify him of these Chosen Ones like before.

It was worth saying that Tian Yongheng met a several Chosen Ones here with extraordinary levels of Providence which the system reminded him of, all destined to ascend to immortality, including Zhu Dong, the Immortal Sovereign's reincarnation he had once been notified of by the system centuries ago.

There was even an Immortal Emperor's reincarnation here, though he was from the Tian Family. He was referring to Tian Chen here.

Some other geniuses who rose to fame in this war were also from various major factions, such as the Lin Family etc.

Today, Tian Yongheng had officially announced his existence and strength to the outside world. It was because now, he wasn't so afraid of the Tian and Qin families discovering his identity, at least not in the Lower Realm.

After some time, as the sharp Sword Intent slowly dissipated, the scene beyond it was finally revealed.

A hundred thousand mile long, ten thousand mile deep and hundreds of miles wide ravine was carved out exquisitely, like shaped by the sharpest sword in the world.

The void was cracked here and there in the hundred thousand miles, only able to repair slowly as the heavenly rules were in chaos.

As expected, there was no trace of the Archaic Forbidden Demon God at all.

At that moment, no matter who it was, all of them were beyond shocked watching such an absurd event unfolding right before them. Even Hong Xuanchen had his eyes widen in disbelief.

We made the right bet.

Tian Yun felt glad in his heart. He couldn't believe that such a genius who could slay Immortal Gods before turning a thousand years old would really exist, that too in the Lower Realm.

The Sword Venerable had told him that Tian Yongheng wasn't even in the Immortal Ascension Realm back then!

At most, he had reached the Immortal Ascension Realm with his ridiculous cultivation speed, but being able to slay a real Immortal Realm powerhouse, even with a Dharma Treasure as spoken by the Archaic Forbidden Demon God, was an impossible feat!

It was recorded in the ancient records of Kunlun that even the lowest ranking Dharma Treasure was so powerful that Half Immortals could only exert around 20% of its full power without suffering grievous wounds themselves!

This was, of course, excluding those monstrous geniuses of the Upper Realm who could use a Dharma Treasure at full power while just being Half Immortals.

In the depths of Kunlun Divine Mountain, a smile appeared on the Sword Venerable's face.

"I wasn't wrong about you."

The energy waves of the final strike were so strong that they spread throughout the entire Mortal World, although only beings at the Vagrant Immortal Realm or above could sense it.

At this time, in the Isle of Heavenly Demons.

"The Demon God...is dead?"

Someone finally broke the prolonged silence, with one person after another beginning to speak up.

"Gone... He's gone before he could even do anything!"

"It seems the righteous path is destined to shine even brighter, producing another powerhouse like that person from over a billion years ago!"

"We were truly fortunate the Eternal Lord was here, otherwise, even a thousand or ten thousand Half Immortals would be nothing more than ants before a real Immortal!"

All cultivators on the righteous path's side were ecstatic at the moment, praising Tian Yongheng non stop.

However, there was a somewhat solemn atmosphere among the experts from the Tian Family.

In fact, they weren't here to help the righteous path in the first place, as they were ordered by the Ancestral Heavenly Family to look after Hong Xuanchen and the others.

Now that the Archaic Forbidden Demon God had been defeated, they were inevitably going to be exposed.

All that aside... Why do I feel like this Eternal Lord is somehow connected to our bloodline?

At that moment, the head of the Tian Family, Tian Shenming, frowned slightly as he looked at Tian Yongheng.
