Cultivating To Immortality

"Sect Master Tang Tian, it’s your turn," Fang Hong said, looking at Tang Tian with a smile.

A spirit pill from a Nascent Soul Peak cultivator was a good thing.

Tang Tian’s face was grim, his eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness.

He stared intently at Fang Hong, then suddenly shouted.

"I admit defeat this time. Everyone, listen to my command, retreat immediately."

Before his voice faded, Tang Tian had already transformed into a black streak of light, rapidly fleeing into the distance. He had no confidence in defeating Fang Hong, and staying here would only lead to being ganged up on.

"Can you escape?"

"Xiao Yu, kill all the cultivators from Shadow Demon Island, leave no one alive. Remember to collect their bodies; I still have a use for them later."

Fang Hong turned to Xiao Yu and gave his instructions, then used the Swift Wind Secret Technique to chase after Tang Tian.

"Ah?" Xiao Yu was stunned, clearly not expecting Fang Hong to suddenly issue such an order, and for a moment, she froze in place.

At the same time, when the disciples of Shadow Demon Island heard this command, their faces turned ashen, as if a basin of ice-cold water had been poured over their heads. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"Run. Run." They looked terrified, scared to death, and scattered in all directions, completely losing the will to continue fighting.

"Grandpa, these people dared to invade our Four Seas Sect, they have committed a great taboo of the sect and their crimes are unforgivable."

"Let’s quickly eliminate all of them now, so Elder Fang won’t be unhappy when he returns." Seeing these people flee, Xiao Yu immediately snapped back to her senses and said angrily.

Xiao Ze heard his granddaughter’s words, pondered for a moment, and felt that his granddaughter made sense. After all, it was something Fang Hong had instructed, so it was best to follow through.

"Those who offend my Four Seas Sect, kill them all, leave no one alive." Xiao Ze immediately gave the order, his voice resounding like a great bell.

Kill. Kill. Kill.

The Four Seas Sect Disciples’ battle intent soared, shouting as they pursued and killed the Shadow Demon Island cultivators who were fleeing in all directions, their killing intent surging, their aura like a rainbow.

"Remember to leave their bodies."

Xiao Yu added, then immediately flashed away, rushing into the battlefield to hunt down those enemies attempting to escape.

Several Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Four Seas Sect also did not sit idle, joining the battle to assist in eradicating the remaining enemies.

"Ahhh."

"Old Ancestor Xiao, we were wrong. We are willing to surrender, please spare our lives."

"Hmph. What do you take my Four Seas Sect for? You think you can come and go as you please? Since you dared to invade, you must pay the price. It’s too late to regret now." Xiao Ze snorted coldly, his face devoid of emotion.

There was no suspense in this battle.

Without the protection of Nascent Soul Cultivators, the ordinary disciples of Shadow Demon Island were powerless to resist, like a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

In a short moment, they were all annihilated by the cultivators of the Four Seas Sect, with no one surviving.

This war for supremacy in the Inner Sea concluded with the complete destruction of Shadow Demon Island.

Only Sect Master Tang Tian was the sole cultivator who escaped alive; all others were buried here.

After this battle, the Four Seas Sect truly ruled the entire Inner Sea, becoming the true overlord of the Inner Sea.

"You, hurry, collect all the bodies, don’t miss a single one. Those that sank to the bottom of the sea, retrieve them all." Xiao Yu stood in mid-air, directing the disciples to collect the bodies, allowing no oversight.

Although she didn’t know what Fang Hong wanted these bodies for, since Fang Hong said they were useful, then they definitely were.

"One of the top sects, gone just like that." Lin Yi looked at the battlefield strewn with corpses and couldn’t help but sigh softly.

"That Elder Fang’s strength is truly terrifying, killing Nascent Soul Cultivators is as simple as killing chickens." Xiao Li gasped, his face filled with awe and reverence.

Xiao Ze then looked at his granddaughter and couldn’t help but ask, "Yu’er, what is the origin of this Elder Fang? How did you meet him? Quickly tell Grandpa."

"Hehe, actually, it’s like this."

Xiao Yu chuckled, then recounted her acquaintance with Fang Hong in detail, and vividly described her various experiences in the Dragon Palace, including the thrilling past incident related to the Nirvana Demonic Fire.

Xiao Ze and the others listened, finding it more and more unbelievable.

They simply couldn’t believe that Fang Hong was still a Core Formation cultivator just a few years ago, and furthermore, that Fang Hong could even escape from the Nirvana Demonic Fire.

"This Fang Hong, could he be an Immortal Reincarnation?" Xiao Ze exclaimed after hearing this.

As soon as Xiao Ze said this, the expressions of everyone present changed. They thought about it carefully, and indeed, this was a possibility.

After all, they had never seen a Heavenly Spiritual Root cultivator cultivate so quickly.

Almost all the Nascent Soul Cultivators present had Heavenly Spiritual Roots, but no one had reached Fang Hong’s terrifying rank.

"Yu’er, it’s thanks to you for bringing Fang Hong into the sect, otherwise, our Four Seas Sect would have suffered a calamity today." Xiao Ze looked at his granddaughter, his face showing genuine relief.

"But can Elder Fang really defeat Tang Tian?" Lin Yi was still a little uneasy, his tone laced with worry.

"I’ll go and see." Xiao Ze said, and prepared to set off.

"Father, be careful." Xiao Li was also a little worried.

Xiao Ze nodded.

Just then, Xiao Yu suddenly exclaimed, "I want to go too. I want to see with my own eyes how Brother Fang deals with that old ghost Tang."

"Yu’er, don’t be foolish. That rank of battle is not something you can interfere with. Stay here obediently and wait for Elder Fang to return." Xiao Yu’s mother, Hua Hui, immediately reprimanded her, glaring at her.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu had no choice but to wait obediently for Fang Hong to return. With her understanding of Fang Hong, he would definitely defeat that Tang Tian.

Xiao Ze no longer delayed, his figure flickered, transforming into a streak of light, and he sped off in the direction Fang Hong and Tang Tian had fled.

...

Meanwhile, on a distant deserted island, Fang Hong had already used the Swift Wind Secret Technique to intercept Tang Tian, forming a standoff with him.

"Fellow Daoist, actually, there isn’t much enmity between you and me."

"If those two fools, Zhao Yongxiu and Elder Lu Qi, offended you, then if they died, they died. I will absolutely not pursue anything. Why must we fight to the death?" Tang Tian said with a solemn expression.

"Fight to the death? No, no. In my eyes, you can’t stir up any big waves at all." Fang Hong said with a relaxed demeanor, his words extremely arrogant.

Upon hearing this, Tang Tian’s heart surged with anger. He had roamed the Azure Wave Sea for so many years, and this was the first time he had been so underestimated.

"Make your move. Let me see the strength of the Inner Sea’s top Demonic Technique master." Fang Hong said calmly.

"Since that’s the case, then as you wish, let’s see who lives and who dies."

Since negotiation was impossible, Tang Tian had no choice but to act.

His hands quickly formed seals, and black demonic qi surged around his body. A black Demonic Banner spiritual artifact slowly appeared behind him, and an eerie demonic qi instantly permeated the entire island.
