Cultivating To Immortality

At this moment, in the distant Black Ancestor City.

Inside a hidden Immortal Cave, a middle-aged man in black clothes was suspended in the air, meditating and cultivating.

This middle-aged man in black was none other than "Gu Hei," one of the three Great Old Ancestors of the Bone Demon Clan, and his entire body emitted a powerful aura.

At that moment, Gu Hei seemed to sense something. With a flash of his figure, he arrived at the open ground outside the Immortal Cave.

There, an Old Man in Black Clothes was standing on the open ground, his expression somewhat anxious.

Seeing Gu Hei emerge, the Old Man in Black Clothes hurriedly stepped forward to report, "Old Ancestor, something terrible has happened. Elder Gu Hai’s life tablet in Haizhou has shattered."

"What? The life tablet shattered."

"Who is so bold? To dare kill an Elder of my Bone Demon Clan." Hearing this news, Gu Hei was instantly enraged.

"Old Ancestor, Gu Hai was at the Late Stage of the Emperor-level. For someone to be able to kill him, could it be a Demon Venerable from the Sky Wolf Clan who made a move?" the Old Man in Black Clothes guessed from the side.

"Impossible. Our clan has a boundary in place. Those few old fellows couldn’t possibly cross the boundary without me noticing." Gu Hei shook his head, his face full of doubt.

"Send several Emperor-level Dharma Protectors to Haizhou to investigate. You must find out the truth for me."

"I want them to know the consequences of killing an Elder of my Bone Demon Clan." Gu Hei said angrily.

Just as Gu Hei finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the void: "No need to investigate, I’m already here."

The two men’s expressions changed upon hearing the voice. They quickly looked up and saw a spatial rift appear out of thin air, and a Black Bear slowly stepped out from the rift.

It was Fang Hong.

"A Black Bear? Peak Emperor-level. Who are you? Was it you who killed Gu Hai?" the Old Man in Black Clothes demanded angrily.

"That’s right, I killed him. You two will also die today," Fang Hong replied flatly.

"You dare kill my clansman, you damned stinking bear."

The Old Man in Black Clothes was beyond furious. He took the initiative to attack, his right hand transforming into a sharp claw wrapped in purple fire as he pounced toward Fang Hong.

The Old Man in Black Clothes was not weak either; he was at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm.

Unfortunately, there are even gaps between those at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm.

Before the Old Man in Black Clothes could even touch Fang Hong, he was frozen in mid-air, his expression filled with terror.

"Stop."

Sensing something was wrong, Gu Hei immediately released the pressure of a Heavenly Venerable, intending to rescue the Old Man in Black Clothes.

However, it was already too late. Fang Hong’s figure flashed, appearing behind the Old Man in Black Clothes, and he threw a punch into his back.

Bang.

The Old Man in Black Clothes instantly smashed into the ground from the air, bleeding from his seven orifices. Before he could even scream, he had already breathed his last.

An Ancient Demon at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm was thus killed instantly by a single punch from Fang Hong.

"You’re looking for death."

Watching his own Elder be punched to death before his very eyes, the fury in Gu Hei’s heart completely erupted.

His entire body emitted bursts of black light, and the surrounding time and space began to constantly twist and deform.

In the blink of an eye, Fang Hong was swept into a strange space by Gu Hei.

This space was vast and boundless, with a sky full of stars above and a ground made of piled-up skeletons.

This was the core technique of a Heavenly Venerable powerhouse: unfolding the Dao Domain to unleash their full strength.

As expected, after the Dao Domain unfolded, Gu Hei’s aura surged several times over, no longer suppressed by the heavens.

Within this space, he could exert his full strength.

Gu Hei had already unfolded his Dao Domain; it seemed he intended to kill Fang Hong with his strongest methods.

"You arrogant, stinking bear, today this Venerable will make you realize that you won’t even be able to beg for death."

"Suppress."

Gu Hei stood high in the air, and with a press of his hand, the suppressive force of the Dao Domain instantly descended upon Fang Hong.

Fang Hong immediately felt a heavy pressure. The efficiency of the Immortal Power circulating in his body was drastically weakened, and it was also being continuously absorbed by the skeletons on the ground.

"So this is the suppressive force of a Dao Domain."

"No wonder the ancient records say that no matter how powerful an Immortal Emperor is, it’s impossible to defeat a Heavenly Venerable across realms. Within a Dao Domain, an Immortal Emperor’s strength is drastically weakened, like a lamb to the slaughter."

Unfortunately, Fang Hong was no ordinary Immortal Emperor; he had the void ring.

A blue light lit up on Fang Hong’s right index finger. The void ring mobilized the Great Dao of Space, instantly dispelling the suppression of the Dao Domain. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

A Heavenly Venerable powerhouse without their Dao Domain was, at most, just an Immortal Emperor with slightly stronger Immortal Power; there was nothing to fear.

In terms of Immortal Power, Fang Hong cultivated seventeen kinds of Daos simultaneously, so his level of Immortal Power was not inferior to Gu Hei’s.

"What! You... you aren’t suppressed. How is that possible?"

Gu Hei showed a look of surprise. His Dao Domain’s suppression actually had no effect at all?

"Regrettably, your Dao Domain methods are ineffective against me."

Fang Hong gave a light chuckle, and the Light of Years instantly erupted from his eyes.

Sensing danger, Gu Hei instantly donned a large black robe, wrapping his entire body tightly.

Fang Hong’s Light of Years hit the black robe and was directly warded off.

Clearly, this black robe of Gu Hei’s was a tenth-grade Dao Artifact, specifically used to resist various Dao techniques.

"So what if the Dao Domain fails? This Venerable is a Demon Venerable; how can an Emperor-level like you challenge me?"

"Bone-Dissolving Palm."

Gu Hei manipulated the surrounding skeletons, transforming them into a giant bone palm that carried scorching demonic fire, ruthlessly pressing down toward Fang Hong!

This bone palm spanned over a million miles, coming with a ferocious momentum, vowing to leave Fang Hong nowhere to run.

Fang Hong activated the void ring and leaped off the star in an instant.

Boom.

The bone palm struck empty air, directly blowing that star apart and turning it into stardust.

Fang Hong had already arrived in the void of the stars. Gu Hei immediately gave chase, continuously striking out with demonic palms.

Wherever he passed, stars exploded one after another, turning into dust.

It was fortunate that this was Gu Hei’s Dao Domain space and these stars had no life; otherwise, who knows how many living beings would have died.

Fang Hong toyed with Gu Hei all the way, causing Gu Hei to roar with rage repeatedly.

Seeing Gu Hei becoming exasperated, Fang Hong immediately cast Time-Space Stasis, attempting to plunge the entire Dao Domain space into stillness.

But he didn’t expect Gu Hei’s black robe to be unexpectedly powerful; he could still move freely, completely unaffected.

"Immortal Power? So you’re not a Black Bear, you’re someone from the Immortal Realm."

Through the methods Fang Hong displayed, Gu Hei recognized the patterns of Fang Hong’s cultivation technique.

Fang Hong did not reply. He directly summoned the chaos bell, letting it grow to the size of a star, and then struck it hard.

Dong.

A resonant toll of the bell rang out, instantly spreading across the entire Dao Domain starry sky.

Wherever the sound waves covered, the stars were all turned into powder!

Gu Hei felt an aura of death approaching. He hurriedly reverted to his original form, turning into a giant black skeleton.

This black skeleton was several times larger than a star, and its entire body emitted purple demonic light to resist the destructive sound waves of the chaos bell.

Dong. Dong. Dong.

Fang Hong continued to toll the chaos bell, and continuous sound waves bombarded Gu Hei’s body.

Soon, cracks began to appear in the entire Dao Domain space. Gu Hei’s Dao Domain space was about to become unable to hold on.
