Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 1645: Chapter 765: Gift from the Immortal Realm Celestial Dao, Suppressing Ancient Vine Immortal City

"Hmm, wait, what’s this?"

At that moment, Jiang Fan looked up, seemingly sensing something in the ether.

With the fall of the three Golden Immortals of the Heart Demon Race, a surge of pain from the source of the Dao suddenly enveloped the land.

Those three Golden Immortals were pillars for the Heart Demon Race in the Immortal Realm. For countless years, they absorbed the world’s greed, anger, obsession, and folly, maintaining the complete thread of the Heart Demon Dao. Their Life Dao Fruit was tightly entwined with the Heart Demon source, linking all the world’s wicked thoughts, deeply embedding the Life Chart into the Heart Demon River of beings’ minds.

At this moment, their physical bodies, demon souls, and life orbits were wholly dissolved by chaos, equivalent to three pillars of the Heart Demon Dao crumbling directly. The invisible Dao Foundation shattered abruptly, and an endless void, decay, and pain spread through countless areas of the Immortal Realm along the misguided notions from the hearts of all beings.

From the heavens above, an unceasing, mournful and resentful wail resounded, not of wind or thunder, but the lamentation of the Dao itself, known as the world’s wailing.

The clouds in the nine skies turned into a deathly gray, the countless clouds shattering and dispersing like tears shed by the Dao. Wherever they fell, all vegetation withered, birds and beasts huddled in fear, forest spirits curled up in terror, with endless dread and sorrow inexplicably welling up in their hearts.

In the Mortal World, thousands upon thousands of living beings, regardless of age, wept in unison, an inexplicable despair and grief surging in their hearts. Even the grass and wood spirits, entities without emotion, bent and drooped, the whole Immortal Realm shrouded in gloom; in the deep sea, countless beasts lurked at the bottom, not daring to surface, while the rivers, lakes, and seas raised sorrowful waves, the sound of waves crashing onto the shore echoing like a lament.

In the domain of the Immortal Dao, the Mountain Protection Arrays of each Immortal Mountain grew dim, the halls and jade columns subtly trembling, the Spiritual Springs in the mountains bubbling with pale gray mist, the Immortal Cranes and Spirit Deer bowing their heads and mourning, Immortal Plants and Immortal Herbs shedding leaves, and the millennia-old Immortal Flowers withering overnight.

RUMBLE~~~

The wailing had not ceased when suddenly a dense network of cracks appeared in a higher heavenly curtain, drops of viscous, cinnabar-like blood, wrapped in faint Heart Demon miasma, slowly dripped down through the cracks — this was the heavens weeping blood.

This was not common mortal blood and flesh, but the original Dao Blood leaking out from the collapse of the source after the Heart Demon Dao was damaged.

The blood rain fell upon all the heavens, the mountains and stones of the Mortal Realm stained a dark red by the blood drops; the white jade floor tiles and Cloud Terrace Immortal Platforms in the Immortal Regions marked with blood spots that could not be wiped away for a long time;

The celestial bodies spun chaotically, and the originally bright stars and moon took on a thin veil of blood, the Star River trembling violently, countless starlights flickering as if enduring the agonizing pain of the Dao Foundation’s rupture.

The blood rain fell on cultivators, and those with weak Dao Hearts instantly burgeoned with endless heart demons, thoughts of greed, killing intent, and entanglement raging wildly; various Heart Demon Secret Realms and Illusionary Ancient Caves trembled intensely, inside which countless heart demons spawned and fled wildly, the heart demon flood unbound from the Golden Immortal’s restraint began to rampantly ravage, hatred, jealousy, and obsession in the world surged without reason, conflict erupted everywhere.

Underground Dragon Veins oozed dark red murk, a dull rumbling sounded from the depths of the earth’s veins, and one after another, magic mountains relying on the nourishment of Heart Demon murk collapsed, the black Heart Demon miasma uncontrollably spreading yet weakened by the incomplete Dao, appearing in a state of approaching decay.

A vast dark river spanning across the nine heavens appeared in mid-air, the original river of the Heart Demon gathering all the obsessions and wicked thoughts in the world.

Three massive voids suddenly appeared mid-river, the waters violently backflowing and draining, countless fragmented heart demon shadows crumbling and dissipating at the edges of these voids, unable to ever reform.

The rules for the emergence of heart demons in the world had ruptured tremendously: cultivators’ heart demons easily spiraled out of control, yet they found it hard to coalesce and grow; the Demon Race and Evil Cultivators who once relied on heart demon cultivation experienced a sluggish flow of Dao Power within, a widespread decline in cultivation, and whilst practicing Heart Demon Techniques, felt stabbing pain in their meridians, their core continuously depleting.

In the world, all kinds of illusion realms and misguided thought barriers spontaneously collapsed, all the hidden malevolent thoughts stored in human hearts exposed and then scattered rapidly, as if the vessel carrying misguided thoughts of the Dao was damaged, no longer able to securely contain the obsessions of all beings.

"Haha, Master, this is the anomaly following the fall of Golden Immortals."

"Even for the Heart Demon Race, the fall of three Golden Immortals is no small matter."

"Each Golden Immortal of the Heart Demon Race is a part of the power of the Heart Demon Dao."

"Now that they’ve fallen, naturally it weakens the Heart Demon Dao and the power of the Heart Demon Race."

"That’s why such anomalies of the Dao wailing appear."

"In the past, it was always the many Daos of the Immortal Realm wailing, but now it’s finally the turn of the Immortal Race."

"Though the fall of the three Heart Demon Golden Immortals hasn’t shaken their foundation yet."

"It does count as weakening part of the Heart Demon Dao’s power."

"However, this means the Heart Demon Race will certainly target Master, they’d love nothing more than to skin you alive and draw your tendons."

The Immortal Artifact Heaven-Stealing Claw laughed heartily.

It was well-versed in these matters.

In the old Immortal Realm, the fall of a single Golden Immortal was a rarity, it would assuredly cause the Dao’s lamentation.

Such a phenomenon shaking the heavens of the Immortal Realm has now occurred with the fall of three Golden Immortals, one can imagine how terrifying the anomaly is.

This will undoubtedly shock the entire Heart Demon Race, driving them to madness.

"Being targeted by the Heart Demon Race, so what; even without doing these things, the Heart Demon Race would target us."

"Still, taking advantage to kill their three Golden Immortals and weaken the Heart Demon Race’s power is worthwhile."

The Immortal Qi-Stealing Celestial Ladder was indifferent.

No matter how furious the Heart Demon Race becomes, this is the territory of the Human Race and the Time Sect.

No matter how angered they are, it’s all to no avail.
