A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

Chapter 498: Seizing a Pill

Several seconds of silence passed by, and everyone was staring at the living corpse, unsure of what was going to happen next.

However, even after a long wait, nothing happened, and the living corpse remained seated on the golden chair in a completely still manner.

"How could this be?" the elderly woman murmured to herself in incredulity as the excitement and anticipation in her eyes slowly faded.

Everyone heaved a collective sigh of relief upon seeing this, thinking that it was only a false alarm, while Feng Tiandu and Han Li returned their attention to the battle at hand.

However, right at this moment, a burst of gray light suddenly emerged from the living corpse's body, and it instantly spread forth like a spirit domain, sending gusts of fierce wind sweeping in all directions.

The elderly woman was instantly sent flying by the ferocious wind, crashing into a gray puppet with a loud thump.

The green pill cauldron also shuddered violently, and only after a burst of green light had flashed over its surface did it manage to stabilize itself again.

On top of that, the golden and gray puppets were swept off their feet by the tremendous force as well, and even the outermost layer of the sea of fire erupted outward before exploding violently.

The Vast Flow Palace cultivators hurriedly sprang back in retreat, but Daoist Hu Yan did the exact opposite, flipping a hand over to produce an antiquated oil lamp that was lit with a golden flame, then flew straight into the raging sea of fire.

It appeared that Yun Ni wasn't tipped off in advance, and an alarmed look appeared on her face as she yelled, "Hu Yan..."

Han Li immediately peered into the spirit domain with his Brightsight Spirit Eyes, but he was unable to see anything aside from a vast expanse of gray mist.

Moments later, the gray mist slowly scattered, and Daoist Hu Yan shot out in a flash, then landed beside Yun Ni.

However, his clothes were in tatters, his entire body was charred black, and his beard had been entirely incinerated away.

Despite his sorry appearance, there was a smile on his face as he said to Yun Ni through voice transmission, "I managed to get one High Zenith Pill, but those golden puppets are too strong, so I didn't dare to try and get another one."

"Don't ever do that to me again!" Yun Ni scolded with a stern glare.

Once all of the dust had settled, the living corpse on the golden chair was revealed once again.

It was still seated in a completely still manner, and it seemed that nothing had changed, but the aura that it was giving off was already completely different.

In the blink of an eye, the two golden puppets appeared beside the chair, and one of them fed another High Zenith Pill into the living corpse's mouth, while the other puppet remained still on the spot with half of its body charred black and an arm missing.

After swallowing the second High Zenith Pill, a layer of light emerged over the living corpse's body, and its aura swelled even further.

At the same time, the two golden puppets joined the one that had delivered the first High Zenith Pill, and the three of them formed a protective encirclement around the living corpse.

Han Li raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, following which he took a glance at Daoist Hu Yan, just in time to see him remove the cloth pouch that he had been carrying this entire time from his back before lifting a corner of the pouch and quickly tossing the High Zenith Pill inside.

A hint of surprise flashed through Han Li's eyes upon seeing this, and he immediately shot back in retreat as a streak of azure light, not wishing to prolong this battle against Feng Tiandu any further.

"You're not getting away!" Feng Tiandu roared in a furious voice, yet right as he was about to give chase, a pillar of blue light suddenly erupted into the heavens from behind him.

A tremendous aura was emanating from the pillar of blue light, causing the entire palace to tremble and sway.

At the center of the pillar of blue light was none other than Luo Qinghai.

At this moment, his entire body was basked in radiant blue light, and rippling blue radiance was surging out of his body, sweeping outward in all directions, while the chains around him were loosened significantly.

Feng Tiandu's expression darkened slightly, and he was forced to abandon his chase of Han Li to focus on Luo Qinghai, releasing a burst of black light from his sleeve to bolster the chains around him.

Out of all of the people here, Luo Qinghai posed the biggest threat to him, so he couldn't allow him to break free no matter what.

All of the chains instantly lit up, then began to squirm and constrict like living creatures.

"It's too late to try and restrain me now!" Luo Qinghai harrumphed coldly as he made a hand seal, and the pillar of blue light around him brightened even further, remaining still and resolute in the face of the constricting chains.

At the same time, he began chanting an incantation, and his lower body instantly transformed into a blue serpentine tail, while his upper body took on a half-human, half-snake appearance, while his aura also swelled drastically.

In the blink of an eye, Han Li appeared beside Daoist Hu Yan, and the latter gave him a grateful nod as he said, "Thank you for keeping Feng Tiandu occupied, Fellow Daoist Li."

Han Li merely gave a faint smile in response, and his gaze lingered for a moment on the yellow cloth pouch on Daoist Hu Yan's back, which was tightly sealed, making it impossible to see what was inside.

A curious look flashed through Han Li's eyes, but he didn't ask any questions as he turned his gaze toward Luo Qinghai, upon which he was quite startled by the sight of Luo Qinghai's new form.

A layer of translucent blue light surfaced over Luo Qinghai's body as he struggled with all his might, and he was quickly shedding the chains around him.

Feng Tiandu's pupils contracted slightly upon seeing this, and he immediately swept a sleeve through the air, upon which dozens of thick black chains appeared around him.

The tips of these chains were extremely sharp, and they were giving off a cold black gleam, giving them the appearance of a series of black spears. There were also countless black runes dancing over the chains, giving off incredibly formidable law power fluctuations.

"Go!"

Feng Tiandu made a hand seal, and all of the black chains instantly shot forth like arrows out of crossbows, launching themselves at Luo Qinghai.

In response, Luo Qinghai flipped a hand over to produce a dark blue bead, which was giving off a formidable aura.

There appeared to be a tiny blue half-snake, half-humanoid figure sealed within the bead, but it couldn't be clearly seen due to excessively bright radiance that the bead was releasing.

A slightly pained look appeared in his eyes, but he still swallowed the bead without any hesitation, and in the next instant, the blue light radiating from his body began to flash erratically, while streams of dark blue light surged through his body.

Right at this moment, the oncoming black chains arrived, piercing through the pillar of blue light with ease before punching through Luo Qinghai's body as well.

In the blink of an eye, countless holes were stabbed into his body, but not even a single drop of blood flowed out, much to Feng Tiandu's surprise.

A cold sneer appeared on Luo Qinghai's face, and the blue light radiating from his body abruptly exploded outward as a series of ripples.

At the same time, an ancient incantation rang out, and it felt as if the language being used had existed since the beginning of time.

Feng Tiandu's expression darkened slightly upon seeing this, and he immediately switched to a different hand seal.

The black chains around him flashed with black light once again, then shot forth through the air, piercing through the blue ripples in a frenzy, but in complete futility.

Meanwhile, Luo Qinghai's chanting was becoming louder and louder, and pillars of blue water were shooting out of the surrounding space before fusing into the blue waves.

In the blink of an eye, a ball of blue water the size of a lake appeared, taking up close to half of the entire palace.

Light flashed at the center of the lake, and a ball of blue light emerged, containing a massive humanoid figure inside.

The figure was several hundred feet tall, and it had the upper body of an imposing middle-aged man wearing a loose-fitting blue robe that left his wide chest and sturdy shoulders exposed.

The man also had a long and curly blue beard that trailed all the way down to his chest.

However, the man's lower body was a thick blue serpentine tail that was coiled several times and at least 1,000 feet in length.

The man had a set of extremely authoritative facial features, giving him the appearance of an ancient water god, and he was also giving off a tremendous aura that surpassed the Golden Immortal Stage, keeping the surrounding black spirit domain at bay.

His aura has already reached the High Zenith Stage!

In the distance, Han Li and the others were all astonished to see this, and a hint of shock flashed through Feng Tiandu's eyes as well.

At this moment, Luo Qinghai was standing inside the projection of the giant blue man with radiant blue light glowing from his body, giving him a majestic and untouchable appearance.

All of a sudden, he raised a hand before casting an incantation seal, and the eyes of the giant blue man abruptly sprang open.

Arcs of blue lightning were flashing within his eyes as the blue man raised a hand of his own, upon which a blue staff appeared in his grasp.

The staff was glowing so radiantly that it was impossible to make out its exact shape, and the giant blue man lashed out with the staff at Feng Tiandu from afar.

A giant blue staff projection appeared, and there were countless arcs of blue lightning flashing over its surface, giving off a burst of devastating power.

In this instant, it was as if the staff were the only thing that existed between heaven and earth.

Even from outside the spirit domain, Han Li and the others could clearly sense the formidable aura of the staff, and they immediately darted back in retreat.

The giant staff projection appeared to be moving very slowly, but in the eyes of Feng Tiandu, who was directly facing the attack, it was moving at lightning speed, striking his black spirit domain without giving him any time to react.

His black spirit domain rippled violently before exploding, and all of the black chains inside the spirit domain were also snapped, freeing the elderly man from the Southern Dawn Race, the other Golden Immortal of the Blaze Dragon, and Nan Kemeng.

The three of them were ecstatic, and they immediately flew away in different directions.

After destroying the spirit domain, a significant amount of the staff projection's power seemed to have been expended, and it shrank down to just over half its original size, but it was still crashing down toward Feng Tiandu with unstoppable might.
