Fantasy: Unparalleled Prince, Conquering the Heavens!-Chapter 748 - 742: The Conspiracy of the Red Dragon Immortal_1

"Such dense death qi!" Zuo Ci gasped. As a master of Taoism, he naturally recognized the grey smoke drifting above the ancient well; it was all death qi.

The reason it sometimes manifested as a demon, sometimes as a devil, and sometimes as a Buddha was primarily due to the immense power the deceased possessed in life. Even countless years after death, the generated death qi could still retain their living appearance.

At this moment, Zuo Ci's calm expression subtly turned grave, his eyes filled with shock.

He couldn't believe what was hidden inside this ancient well.

But one thing was certain: the opportunity the Red Dragon Immortal had acquired was obtained from this ancient well.

I have to go down and take a look! Zuo Ci muttered to himself. A strong curiosity welled up within him. He lightly waved his horsetail whisk, scattering three thousand rays of light that enveloped the ancient well, forming a formation-breaking technique.

BOOM!

Instantly, the heavens and earth trembled violently. All the formation eyes within the Red Dragon Immortal's abode activated, forming a massive Feng Shui Formation that emitted a dazzling celestial light and a murderous aura.

Six thousand six hundred and sixty-six formation eyes! Zuo Ci looked up, remaining still. A Feng Shui Annihilation Formation, encompassing twelve aspects such as defense, offense, ensnarement, and annihilation. This isn't a simple tomb-guarding Formation; the Red Dragon Immortal has an ulterior motive!

He was now within the Formation. A single misstep could plunge him into peril. Considering the Formation's power, once its killing aspect was triggered, even a Golden Immortal couldn't withstand it and would only face the doom of body and soul perishing.

CREAK!

At this moment, the main hall's doors slowly creaked open.

A hazy figure with a full head of red hair, wielding an Immortal Sword, and encircled by the soul of a Red Dragon, strode out. A smile played on his lips as he curiously sized up Zuo Ci.

"I didn't expect an old man!" the spiritual entity remarked after a moment, his voice booming and deafening. "However, your talent is acceptable. You can serve as my vessel!"

"Are you the Red Dragon Immortal?" Zuo Ci turned, his expression calm, seemingly unfazed by the spiritual entity's appearance.

"Indeed!" The spiritual entity affirmed with a nod, speaking coldly, "Since you know my identity, you can die content!"

"Formation, activate!" the Red Dragon Immortal bellowed. The Feng Shui Formation blanketing the heavens and earth flared brilliantly. Countless streams of crimson energy converged, forming a colossal, ten-thousand-zhang Red Dragon coiling in the sky.

The boundless Dragon Qi permeated the air, powerful enough to shake the heavens and earth!

Clusters of crimson fire rained down, forming waterfalls of flame that cascaded from high above, obscuring the Azure sky and transforming the surroundings into a fiery world, intent on incinerating everything.

"Soul-Refining Fire, burn!" the Red Dragon Immortal roared with excitement.

After a billion years, he had finally reached this day, finding a suitable person for possession.

You scoundrels from the Fourth Heaven, once I successfully possess this body, your doom will arrive... the Red Dragon Immortal seethed internally. A bone-chilling hatred replaced the excitement in his heart, his eyes glowing red. This enmity was so profound that even all the waters of the three rivers and five lakes could not cleanse it.

A billion years ago, he was cultivating in his abode, comprehending the legacy he had obtained, and preparing to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm.

But, as the saying goes, disaster can strike even when one is sitting at home! Several peak Taiyi Earth Immortals from the Fourth Heaven suddenly descended, coercing him to surrender the Golden Immortal legacy.

Naturally, he refused. A great battle erupted. Relying on the Divine Skills from his legacy, he successfully defeated the experts from the Fourth Heaven. However, he also sustained grievous injuries that were incurable.

Fortunately, the legacy contained a wondrous possession technique that allowed him to preserve his own innate talent and transfer it to the possessed body.

This way, it was equivalent to merging the innate talents of two bodies.

However, this technique had stringent requirements for the body to be possessed: it must possess monstrous-level innate talent.

With the determination to try anything in a desperate situation, the Red Dragon Immortal constructed a tomb centered around the legacy site and set up the Feng Shui Formation. He would awaken if he encountered a Martial Artist with monstrous-level innate talent.

"ROAR!"

The dragon's cry echoed as the Red Dragon, hovering high above, spewed a massive gout of flame. This fire contained immense power, capable of striking the soul directly.

The ambient temperature skyrocketed.

The magnificent palace began to spontaneously combust, with thick smoke billowing towards the heavens.

One by one, the immortal plants withered. All their energy was siphoned by the Formation and absorbed into the Red Dragon, causing the gushing flames to become even more ferocious.

"What a malevolently potent flame!" Zuo Ci's brows knitted. His Taoist robes billowed as he once again waved the horsetail whisk in his hand. The laws of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning tore through the air, bearing down upon the world.

Summoning wind and calling forth rain!

The sky darkened!

A mass of pitch-black clouds materialized above the Red Dragon Immortal's abode, lightning flashing and thunder rumbling. The howling wind caused the entire immortal abode to tremble. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

CRACK!

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the airborne Red Dragon.

It was as if a chain reaction had been triggered. In the distant Void, a colossal tornado materialized, tearing at the heavens and earth. Buildings in its path collapsed one after another.

Amidst the deafening thunder, torrential rain poured down—dense and unceasing, linking heaven and earth.

Each raindrop was like a sharp sword, its edge glinting, piercing through heaven and earth, penetrating everything. The power unleashed was no weaker than a full-force strike from a peak Taiyi Earth Immortal Realm Martial Artist.

"ROAR~"

Drenched by the torrential rain, the Red Dragon howled in pain. The raging flames covering its body were nearly extinguished by the downpour.

This rain possessed the sharpness of a sword and the chill of ice!

"Damn it!" The Red Dragon Immortal's expression changed slightly. As the master of the immortal abode, he knew how powerful Zuo Ci's attack was. If the storm continued to rage, the 'Soul-Refining Fire' might be extinguished.

Without the 'Soul-Refining Fire,' he couldn't perform the possession technique!

"Shift!" The Red Dragon Immortal dared not delay. His hands formed seals, and the Feng Shui Formation began to operate. The ensnarement aspect activated, generating countless golden threads that spread out in all directions, flying towards Zuo Ci.

Their speed was so immense, it was impossible to defend against!

In the next instant, Zuo Ci was bound, as if imprisoned by the world itself, unable to move a muscle.

I've succeeded! The Red Dragon Immortal was faintly pleased. He controlled the Red Dragon to launch its final attack. The dragon's mouth gaped open, and a torrent of firelight shot towards the sky, landing on Zuo Ci.

Yet, a peculiar scene unfolded. No matter how terrifying the 'Spirit-Refining Fire' was, there was no sign of a soul being burned, as if it were incinerating something soulless.

What is going on? The Red Dragon Immortal was bewildered. Isn't this a human? How can a human not have a soul?

"Myriad Thunderbolts Descend!" Suddenly, a calm voice sounded. The thunderclouds roiled, and tens of thousands of heavenly bolts of lightning struck down simultaneously, shattering the Void and annihilating all things.

Caught off guard, the Red Dragon Immortal was directly struck by the myriad heavenly bolts. His soul convulsed, becoming exceedingly faint.

It seemed as if a mere gust of wind could cause it to dissipate into nothingness.

"No... impossible! How did you break free from the Formation's restraints?" The Red Dragon Immortal was aghast. The shock in his heart made him momentarily forget his perilous situation.

His mind reeled with too many questions!

He knew that the Formation he had laid was an exact replica from that mysterious legacy, capable of trapping even Golden Immortal experts.

Why?

Why could this seemingly weak human break free?
