Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree
Chapter 529 - 500: I, This Humble Daoist, Will Surrender
The Immortal Path is severed!
There are no immortals in the world!
This is something all the top experts in the starry sky acknowledge.
Having reached the Quasi-Immortal realm for many years, Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable is well aware of this, understanding clearly that there cannot truly be an immortal in the world.
However.
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin evidently broke this rule.
Seeing Demon Venerable Xuan Yin about to strike again, Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable hurriedly spoke: "Please stop, I am willing to submit!"
No surrender!
That was an impossibility!
After witnessing Demon Venerable Xuan Yin’s real strength, Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable understood that he could never be a match for Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, even with Prince Halid added into the mix.
A true immortal!
How could a Quasi-Immortal compare?
What’s more important is.
That Demon Venerable Xuan Yin could achieve Ascension to Immortality suggests he possesses the method to become an immortal, which is precisely what Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable truly cares about.
Though he had broken through to Quasi-Immortal for many years, his lifespan was running out. Although the Quasi-Immortal realm contains the word "immortal," he ultimately had not reached the true immortal level.
Therefore.
Quasi-Immortals cannot achieve longevity.
Joining the Divine Eye Empire, Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable sought to rely on the power of the Divine Eye Empire to seek further advancement.
After all, with the Immortal Path severed, the possibility of achieving longevity through cultivation had vanished; thus, he had to explore other avenues.
Technological civilization.
Maybe there was a way to achieve longevity.
But—
Now the appearance of a true immortal completely dispelled all of Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable’s previous notions, making him think that by pledging allegiance to the force behind Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, he might have a chance of becoming immortal himself.
Just as Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable finished speaking, the blood-colored saber aura suddenly halted, resting on his forehead, and the dissipating blade energy broke through his protective Gang Qi. A blood-colored sabre mark gradually appeared between his brows, with blood trickling down.
In an instant.
Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable was covered in blood.
"If you surrender, show your sincerity by killing him, and you will live!"
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin paused, then pointed to Prince Halid.
Upon hearing this.
Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable felt a surge of relief at surviving a disaster, then looked at Prince Halid with cold killing intent in his eyes.
Better him than me!
To survive, Prince Halid must die.
Seeing the situation reversed, Prince Halid’s expression changed dramatically, and he shouted in rage and surprise: "Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable, are you truly betraying the Divine Eye Empire!"
"You jest, Prince. I was never part of the Divine Eye Empire. We only had a cooperative relationship, so there is no betrayal to speak of. Blame the Divine Eye Empire for failing to recognize people, offending a true immortal!"
Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable sneered, feeling no guilt at all for betraying the Divine Eye Empire.
What righteousness and morality.
In his eyes, these were simply laughable.
Only living.
Was truly important.
Thus.
The moment he finished speaking, Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable immediately struck, attacking Prince Halid, who, enraged, retaliated.
He understood.
He was unlikely to survive this battle.
But even if he died, Prince Halid wanted Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable to pay the price.
Compared to Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, he hated Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable the betrayer more.
Boom!
Rumble!
The two Quasi-Immortal experts clashed, unleashing powerful waves that shook the entire star system.
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin glanced indifferently at the battlefield, then turned to attack the other armies.
Not killing Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable wasn’t out of mercy, but because Gu Qingyang had sent word at the moment he was about to kill him, instructing him to spare Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable’s life.
Gu Qingyang’s orders were not something Demon Venerable Xuan Yin dared to disobey. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Thus.
He spared Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable’s life.
Of course.
If Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable truly fell to Prince Halid, it would just prove he was indeed worthless, and Demon Venerable Xuan Yin believed Gu Qingyang wouldn’t care.
Profound Celestial Immortal Venerable turned traitor.
The inner conflict between two Quasi-Immortal experts.
Caused everyone from the Divine Eye Empire to show expressions of despair.
Without top-tier experts to hold the fort, how could the remaining cultivators be a match for Demon Venerable Xuan Yin?
Even the elite troops sent as reinforcements from the entire Divine Eye Empire couldn’t halt Demon Venerable Xuan Yin’s steps.
Under the Blood Shadow Demon Blade, all life was extinguished.
No matter how sturdy your battleship mecha or how high your cultivation, in the face of the tenth-tier Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, you were nothing more than an ant.
The army’s cultivators fell one by one.
One battleship after another exploded with a roar.
The whole Sun Star System was ravaged by a terrifying power; the blood-colored Saber Gang pierced the sky and earth as if it could divide the entire star system in two.
And just as Demon Venerable Xuan Yin was slaughtering the armies, the Cyan Yang Divine Realm’s army also arrived.
When the army finally entered the Sun Star System, the anticipated fierce battle was nowhere to be found; everything in sight was eerily silent, like death.
Stars shattered.
Planets extinguished.
The terrifying blood-colored blade energy lingered, refusing to dissipate.
"Hiss, did Demon Venerable Xuan Yin just slaughter the entire Sun Star System!"
A Divine Court Elder was shocked, especially upon feeling the terrifying power of the lingering blade energy, his heart trembled.
One man against a star system!
This was something unthinkable in the past.
When Master Celestial Secret and others arrived and saw this scene, they too were astonished.
As ninth-tier experts, they could more clearly sense the terrifying power contained in the lingering blade energy.
Since when.
Did Demon Venerable Xuan Yin’s power become this terrifying.
"Could it be that Demon Venerable Xuan Yin really achieved Ascension to Immortality!"
Master Celestial Secret was shocked.
This kind of power completely exceeded the limits of the ninth tier, or rather, the ninth tier was as insignificant as an ant before such power.
To achieve this, apart from the legendary immortals, Master Celestial Secret found it difficult to think of another possibility.
Hearing this.
The other ninth-tier cultivators were also shaken.
Master Celestial Secret’s words resonated with their thoughts.
If Demon Venerable Xuan Yin became immortal, the only possible way was through the means of that Divine Emperor.
Otherwise.
How else could it be explained that Demon Venerable Xuan Yin became immortal after joining the Cyan Yang Divine Court, and why, after becoming immortal, would he still follow the court’s orders.
Yuan Shendao took a deep breath: "Since Demon Venerable Xuan Yin could become immortal, it means we also have a chance. Next, we just need to find out how to satisfy that one!"
If they could satisfy that one, they too had the chance to become immortal.
Yuan Shendao knew very well who he was referring to.
Throughout the Cyan Yang Divine Realm, the only one capable of granting immortality was that supreme Divine Emperor.
