Immortal Divine Tribulation

Chapter 217: The Battle of Destiny

In the Northern Region, on the Immortal Island of No Return, Tian Fan walked forward with unwavering determination. Golden holy light illuminated the world, making him seem like the first god to create heaven and earth. However, at this moment, his body was filled with boundless killing intent, shattering shards of space. 

And in the next instant, he moved. 

Before the demonic shadow’s astonished eyes, his body had vanished.

“Ugh…”

A shrill scream echoed through the heavens. 

The demonic shadow had just finished reconstructing its body and hadn’t even had time to make any other move when Tian Fan instantly shattered half of its body. His Divine Cloud Step was unparalleled in the world. 

After entering the Realm of Immortal Ascension, he had almost truly reached the pinnacle of speed. At his current speed, even those from the Earthly Immortal Realm would find it difficult to catch him.

“Ah!”

Tian Fan roared, his black hair standing on end, and a blazing golden light pierced through the vast white clouds. He moved both hands simultaneously, grabbing the demonic shadow by the shoulder, and with a furious roar, tore it apart in mid-air. 

Demonic blood splattered across the sky; many plants touched by this blood instantly turned to ash, demonstrating the demonic shadow’s immense power and the terrifying strength contained within its blood.

On the other side, Little Dragon’s large eyes blinked incessantly as it perched atop Zi Ying’s head, staring intently ahead, gripping its golden lower claws tightly. It was just a small child, its face filled with pure adoration. 

Long Yuyun was utterly shocked. Such combat power was terrifying. This “Seventh Brother” he had called for twenty years was actually the child of the Immortal Emperor and the Nine Heavens Xuan Nu, his status incredibly high. Now, he had even entered the Realm of Immortal Ascension, making him virtually unmatched on the Divine Martial Continent. 

It was laughable that Long Aotian and the others had been so difficult to him back then, never imagining that this person he called trash was actually the son of the Immortal Emperor, the child of the Nine Heavens Xuan Nu, and the grandson of the Divine King.

Watching this scene, no one felt more satisfied than white fox. She even wanted to clap and cheer; she wanted to rush forward herself, but she didn’t. Just as the beautiful woman had said, this was left by the Immortal Emperor, left for his descendant to sever karmic ties, his destined battle. She shouldn’t interfere.

“Little Tian Tian…”

Zi Ying called softly, her face filled with sorrow. She had shed countless tears today, thousands of times more than in the past twenty years combined. Looking at him now, at that white-robed man, she felt immense sadness and heartache. 

From the time he could remember until now, the suffering he had endured, the burdens he had carried, were far too heavy for ordinary people to even imagine. She could only imagine the anguish and rage in his heart.

“Ah…”

A roar erupted from the shards and blood filling the sky. All the fragments and blood converged and merged in the air, and in a matter of moments, a perfectly formed demonic figure reappeared, its green eyes blazing with boundless fury. Although he had been suppressed under the Sacred Tree for millions of years, and his cultivation had plummeted from the Heavenly Immortal Realm to the early stage of Earthly Immortal, he was still not someone from the Immortal Ascension Realm who could harm him. However, what he couldn’t accept was that he had indeed been injured by someone from the Immortal Ascension Realm, and his physical body had been directly shattered.

“This…how is this possible!”

In the distance, Zi Ying and the others stared in utter horror at the scene. Just moments ago, they had witnessed it being torn to shreds, yet now it had been reborn right before their eyes. This was beyond their comprehension.

In truth, once one enters the Human King Realm, as long as a wisp of spiritual consciousness remains, one will not die. The physical body can be reconstructed. At that realm, spiritual consciousness is the most powerful foundation, the very essence.

The demonic shadow’s eyes swept in their direction. Zi Ying and Long Yuyun couldn’t help but tremble. Its emerald green pupils flickered slightly, landing on the beautiful woman and the white fox before finally transforming into a streak of black light and disappearing from the spot. If his cultivation hadn’t declined, he would be fearless, but now, he hadn’t fully recovered and was no match for the two.

“Pfft…”

A cloud of blood exploded in the sky a hundred miles away. 

Tian Fan’s expression was icy, his killing intent boundless. His indestructible battle body shook the mortal realm. With a single punch, he shattered that area of ​​heaven and earth, pulverizing the demonic shadows within, staining the sky with blood.

He uttered no words, his eyes filled only with endless rage and killing intent. His hands slowly rose, his body trembling as he formed a familiar hand seal. 

A brilliant silver light emanated from the Five Elements Seal, hovering above his head. This was the Nine Heavens Xuan Nu’s technique; at this moment, he felt as if he were holding up the entire heavens.

“Die!”

His roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth. His right hand rose as if lifting a sacred mountain, the Five Elements Seal pressing down forcefully. 

A divine aura permeated the sky, and shrill screams echoed from within. 

The Five Elements Method, cultivated to its highest level, was said to be able to seal everything; it was the strongest inheritance of the divine race.

“Ugh…”

A scream rang out as terrifying demonic light erupted from beneath the Five Elements Seal, instantly shattering the silver array above and sending Tian Fan flying dozens of steps away.

“Roar…”

The demonic shadow roared, glaring at Tian Fan, but ultimately didn’t stay. He was afraid of the beautiful woman and the white fox. He fled again, but he was destined to be disappointed. At this moment, Tian Fan’s eyes were filled with killing intent. Even if a Heavenly Immortal came, he would kill them; nothing could stop him.

“You can’t escape. You must die today!”

With overwhelming divine might, he used the Divine Cloud Step, instantly ascending to the top. His enormous golden palm slammed out, shattering the void in front of him, and half of the demonic shadow’s body was shattered again.

In the distance, the others watched in horror. Such a physical body was terrifying; truly, nothing could stop it.

“You! I’ll kill you!”

The demonic shadow roared. Being repeatedly shattered by someone from the Immortal Ascension Realm was unbearable for him, who had once been supreme. He let out a long howl, unleashing a demonic technique. 

A black moon rose behind him, its terrifying aura shattering half of the Immortal Island of No Return. Everything in front of him was destroyed. Under the black moon, surrounding spiritual energy continuously drifted out and gathered upon it, instantly magnifying the demonic sphere a thousandfold.

“What…what is that?!”

Long Yuyun felt a chill. Even from a hundred miles away, his body ached as if it were about to crack. 

Fortunately, there were several super experts nearby. 

The beautiful woman unleashed a red light, creating a barrier that enveloped them. She was a supreme expert of the Heavenly Immortal Realm; if she so desired, she could destroy this demonic traitor with a single finger.

“That’s the profound technique of the Demon Realm’s zombie royal family, the Demon Spirit Ball—it’s terrifying!”

The white fox beside them explained, while looking ahead with immense worry. Although Tian Fan’s physical body was comparable to a celestial being, and his divine power was boundless, he was ultimately only a cultivator in the early stage of the Immortal Ascension realm, with an insurmountable gap between him and those in the Earthly Immortal realm.

The terrifying Demon Spirit Ball continued to expand, its terrifying pressure permeating all directions, terrifying countless spirit birds into a state of constant fear, like ants on a hot pan, filled with unease.

Faced with this attack, Tian Fan remained fearless. 

Like a god, he took a step forward, causing the heavens and earth to shake, the sun and moon to lose their color, and the endless void to shatter. Golden blood energy surged boundlessly around him, rising for thousands of miles with demonic light. His golden fist swung, slamming heavily down towards the enormous Demon Spirit Ball.
