Everlasting Immortal Firmament

Gu Hai, Kong Xuan, and the Mosquito Daoist frowned as they looked into the distance where Fengbo disappeared.

“Fengbo must have had something important to do on the island. Your Reverence…” Kong Xuan looked at Gu Hai.

However, Gu Hai gently shook his head. “Just ignore him. Rescue Ao Shun and Shangguan Hen first.”

“Yes!” Kong Xuan and the Mosquito Daoist answered.

On the other side, the Unborn Man had gone around Purple Bamboo Island for two hours and finally finished laying the ritual array. Far away, he took out an eight-trigram jade pendant and pressed it against the air.

Boom!

Sixty-four titanic water screens suddenly emerged from the sea, shining with a dazzling golden light.

Boom!

The golden light rushed to Purple Bamboo Island. As beams of golden light spread out, they divided the island into sixty-four partitions. Then, golden smoke covered the entire Purple Bamboo Island.

“Who is it?”

“How dare someone come to Purple Bamboo Island and cause trouble?!”

“They must be tired of living. Do they know where this is?”

The massive change had the disciples on the surrounding islands roaring in fury. Countless soldiers and dragons from the Southern Sea Dragon Palace rushed out, releasing powerful auras, intending to defend Purple Bamboo Island, which the lifespan ritual array covered.

“Mosquito Daoist, go!” Gu Hai said.

Buzz!

The Mosquito Daoist flung his sleeves out, and an overwhelming number of black mosquitoes rushed out, blanketing the sea around the lifespan ritual array.

As the cultivators rushed over, the black mosquitoes quickly approached and pushed them into the sea.

“Roar! What evil demon is here to cause trouble? Enter this dragon lord’s stomach! This lord eats everything, be it human or animal spirit!”

A red dragon roared, wanting to charge into the black mosquito-covered region. However, with the Mosquito Daoist’s current strength and domain, he was practically unrivaled within the same cultivation realm.

The black mosquitoes engulfed that red dragon and sucked out all its blood and flesh in the blink of an eye, leaving only the dragon’s skin.

“Everyone, listen up. I will kill without mercy if you dare to approach!” the Mosquito Daoist shouted as he flew into the air.

“Roar!”

“Hah!”

“Kill him!”

Countless experts immediately charged the Mosquito Daoist.

Not all of the Southern Sea’s eight thousand islands had experts on them. However, there were still many. When they saw people blockading Purple Bamboo Island, they naturally rushed over immediately.

However, they had to consider who their opponents were. Outside the Divine Continent, Spiritual Energy was thin. Aside from some with powerful bloodlines or innate talents, how many experts could there be?

The Mosquito Daoist alone could deal with everyone.

“Kong Xuan, let’s go!” Gu Hai said.

“Yes!”

The two turned into two beams of light and instantly arrived outside Purple Bamboo Island.

“Your Reverence, this official has to remain outside the island to maintain the ritual array, so I won’t be accompanying Your Reverence inside. If you hold this jade talisman, this official’s ritual array will not affect you.” The Unborn Man handed over two jade talismans.

Gu Hai and Kong Xuan each took one jade talisman and entered Purple Bamboo Island.

The golden light separated Purple Bamboo Island into sixty-four partitions. Gu Hai entered the first partition. The moment he entered, the surroundings appeared identical to earlier; he could not see the Mosquito Daoist massacring in the surroundings or the titanic ritual array around the island.

“This lifespan ritual array seems like an illusion ritual array, preventing the people inside from noticing anything strange outside?” Kong Xuan said as his expression changed slightly.

“That’s right. Let’s start searching!” Gu Hai said with a worried expression.

“Yes!” Kong Xuan answered.

After Kong Xuan spoke, he flung out his sleeve and called out, “Peacock domain!”

Boundless azure light soared into the sky as Kong Xuan’s peacock domain covered the first partition. Ten thousand Kong Xuans appeared out of nowhere.

“Who is it?” Many experts appeared in this partition.

Boom!

The ten thousand Kong Xuans landed a palm strike on everyone, knocking them unconscious as he scoured the area for a while.

“Your Reverence, they are not here!” Kong Xuan said with a complicated expression.

“Next partition!” Gu Hai said.

Kong Xuan nodded as he followed Gu Hai into the second partition. There, he immediately brought out his peacock domain and combed the area, knocking anyone he encountered unconscious.

The Unborn Man’s lifespan ritual array was truly incredible, completely isolating sound. Even a zither puppet did not work.

“Not here!” Kong Xuan yelled.

“Third partition!” Gu Hai said slightly anxiously.

“Yes!”

Outside Purple Bamboo Island:

The many experts continued rushing in, but no one could break through. However, they only faced one Mosquito Daoist. Many hoped that while some blocked the black mosquitoes, others could enter the island while the Mosquito Daoist was distracted.

However, the Mosquito Daoist suddenly brought out the darkness domain.

Boom!

Surging black energy covered a vast area of the sea, presenting a scene that made the surrounding experts despair.

The countless black mosquitoes suddenly transformed into ten thousand Mosquito Daoists.

Ten thousand Mosquito Daoists? How are we to charge past him?

We can’t even deal with one Mosquito Daoist, what more ten thousand?

The ten thousand Mosquito Daoists shocked all the experts. Simultaneously, a portion of the Mosquito Daoists charged into the sea, going to its depths.

The darkness domain had also dyed the sea black.

There was a sprawling cluster of palaces at the bottom. That was the Southern Sea Dragon Palace.

“Your Highness the Crown Prince, it’s bad! That evil demon barged into my Southern Sea Dragon Palace! Ah! Don’t kill me!”

“The dragon king is on Purple Bamboo Island. What should we do? Your Highness, the dragon king is not here. What should we do? Argh!”

The dragons felt startled. The Mosquito Daoist could go everywhere. He split himself into millions of clones, searching the dragon palace.

Unfortunately, he could not find Ao Shun or Shangguan Hen in the dragon palace, which made him anxious.

Purple Bamboo Hall, Purple Bamboo Island:

After Fengbo left, the White Emperor stepped into the hall.

“Fengbo left? Hah! He does not want to offend the Myriad Age Daoist Sect,” the White Emperor sneered.

“They are using me to kill Sect Master Heavenly Access, probably to test Essence Genesis’s strength. Hah! Did they think I wouldn’t know? However, I don’t care. If Sect Master Heavenly Access’s strength is like this, even if Essence Genesis is strong, he has his limits,” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon sneered.

“The Lord Buddha told me to remind you to be wary of Essence Genesis,” the White Emperor said.

“Be wary of Essence Genesis? Hah! Essence Genesis just never showed himself. Who knows what they are worried about? Back then, the leader of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect, Sect Master Supreme Ascendant, was only so-so. What more his second junior brother? Although I know Ji Dihong is using me, it does not matter. As long as he deals with the Divine Continent blacklist, I will eventually swallow up the Myriad Age Daoist Sect,” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said confidently.

“Since you have decided, I won’t try to persuade you any further.” The White Emperor nodded.

“I have even given Sect Master Heavenly Access the Sword Dao Merger Technique, which the Unrestrained Heavenly Demon gave me. How can I give up now? Besides Ji Dihong’s unseen sword Dao, the three strongest sword Dao in the world belong to Sect Master Heavenly Access, Sha, and the Sword Deity Six Paths. Once the three sword Dao merge, I will forge Sect Master Heavenly Access into a puppet. Humph! This human-shaped puppet will be my strongest weapon!” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said confidently.

“When the Lord Buddha sent me with these ten Sword Deity Six Pathses, he had only one requirement. He wanted me to witness the ultimate form of your human-shaped weapon,” the White Emperor said.

“Watch then; it does not matter. However, I’m curious. Why does Jiang Gautama suddenly value you so much? He even let you watch over his secret realm immortal firmament,” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon asked.

The White Emperor smiled faintly, not explaining.

“Even if you don’t say, I can guess. Jiang Gautama probably values you as a hostage. He wants to use you against that Gu Hai?” Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said with a cold smile.

The White Emperor raised her eyebrows as a trace of frustration flashed in her eyes.

Although she did not want to admit this, this was a fact.

“Actually, I still don’t understand. Why does Jiang Gautama care about Gu Hai? Oh? It was since that battle at Three Mountains City? He seems to see Gu Hai as an eyesore? To think Jiang Gautama is so cautious about someone who has just recently advanced to the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm? How funny!” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said with a trace of disdain.

“However, when the Southern Sea Dragon King brought the Spirit Mountain Holy Land experts over, he did not come out on top, either.” For some reason, the White Emperor suddenly argued in support of Gu Hai.

“White Emperor, since we are both women, I should tell you this. All schemes and plots are just a joke before absolute strength. Furthermore, women should be independent,” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said confidently.

“Huh?” The White Emperor’s expression turned stiff.

How could the White Emperor not know this? However, she no longer had Jiang Lianshan. When she had to deal with Gu Hai or Jiang Gautama, she could no longer keep up with them.

“Alright, that’s all I’ll say. Let’s see how many sword Dao Sect Master Heavenly Access has merged,” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said indifferently.

After speaking, the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon waved.

Buzz!

An enormous, transparent ball suddenly appeared before her, allowing her to see within. Sha protected Sect Master Heavenly Access while Sect Master Heavenly Access absorbed the Sword Deity Six Pathses’ sword conceptions one by one. After the experience with the first one, he had sped up significantly. He had already crippled three Sword Deity Six Pathses in a short period.

“Huh?” The Purple Jade Heavenly Demon narrowed her eyes slightly.

“What’s wrong?”

“Something’s not right. Sect Master Heavenly Access is acting out of character today?” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said, bewildered.

“Out of character?”

The White Emperor looked into the transparent ball.

“Huh? Does he not intend to plunder Sha’s sword conception?” the White Emperor said in surprise.

“Sect Master Heavenly Access is an extremely jealous person. I previously heard that Sha’s sword Dao had surpassed his, despite Sha being a disciple. If not for Sha’s being from his line of inheritance, he would have killed Sha long ago. Now that the Sword Deity Six Pathses obey Sect Master Heavenly Access, he could have ordered them to suppress Sha first and plundered Sha’s sword conception before plundering the Sword Deity Six Pathses’. What if Sha refuses to hand over his sword conception after Sect Master Heavenly Access cripples all the Sword Deity Six Pathses?” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said, her brows knitting.

“Does he not want Sha’s sword conception?” The White Emperor frowned.

“That’s impossible. He will plunder it. Sha is not his family. Humph! Sect Master Heavenly Access must be too stubborn. He must think he can suppress Sha when the time comes,” the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon said coldly.

“He will become your sword later. Why be angry with him?” the White Emperor said indifferently.

The Purple Jade Heavenly Demon nodded as she looked coldly into the secret realm immortal firmament.
