Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons-Chapter 1255 - 753: Who is Playing Along with You?

Outside Heavenly Tower Mountain, there emerged a figure with nothing to do.

Though everyone here had nothing to do, very few could roam aimlessly like him, wantonly expending their energy.

Moreover, he stood out among the dusty-faced refugees in his clean, white attire.

This was an Immortal, the Immortal who had slain the Demon Dragon!

Wherever the young man went, the commoners bowed in unison. Even if they didn’t know what he was doing, they bowed each time he passed, without any complaint or reluctance.

"..."

Shen Yi walked slowly forward, suddenly recalling the time when he first arrived in Shen Zhou. In that Prefecture City, he had seen a cultivator collide with a young child. The child was unafraid, and the cultivator was not angered. They simply smiled and went on their way.

This was perhaps the time when the people of the Divine Dynasty were most full of confidence.

It also left Shen Yi with a good impression of the Divine Dynasty.

In just a short period, everything reverted back to the situation in Hongze, even worse than Hongze.

Perhaps this was the scene the Immortals desired: high above the clouds, tending to the mortal realm, how delightful it must be.

Shen Yi shook his head lightly, quickened his pace, and walked towards a secluded spot.

Though he was merely strolling, it was not without purpose.

As an outsider from the Southern Continent, his foundation in the North Continent was too shallow, almost non-existent before truly joining the Lingxu Cave.

Conducting affairs would certainly be restrictive.

Take the case of the White Dragon the other day, even if the dragon had only a breath left, do not forget that Shen Yi’s title now was Taixu Pill Emperor. Refining an elixir to revive the White Dragon wouldn’t be that difficult.

They were all fellow members of the Immortal Department, and he indeed wanted to save the dragon.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t.

If he took action, Shen Yi would immediately be ostracized by the entire North Continent, leaving him no place to stay. Since he hadn’t been truly accepted by the Three Immortals Sect, such matters couldn’t be categorized as internal conflict but rather as a loose cultivator provoking the entire Three Immortals Sect’s dignity.

So he could only give the White Dragon a swift end, at least sparing it the process of humiliation.

Outsiders seeking to establish themselves in the North Continent cannot take initiative; they must await a change.

Every step Shen Yi took around Heavenly Tower Mountain intensely provoked someone’s fragile heart, accelerating the arrival of this change.

He walked around the corner and stepped straight into Taixu.

"Chenyi pays respects to my lord."

The White Dragon Suppressing Stone spiraled downward, every gesture and expression exuding utmost respect, except for the few tinges of complexity in his eyes as he looked at the young man.

It didn’t know what method the master had used to grant it new life; it only felt a sense of resignation, knowing it had never betrayed the Imperial Court until its death, yet ended up a lapdog for the Immortal.

"What are you looking at?"

The Shenxu Ancestor, having returned after delivering the message, transformed into human form and forcefully patted the White Dragon’s head: "Besides being your master, this person is also the General Zhen Nan of your Immortal Department!"

Hearing this, Chenyi was startled and then displayed sheer joy.

He had long heard that the Southern Continent was the only place within the Shen Zhou that hadn’t fallen.

"My lord’s presence here, is it the aid from the Southern Continent?"

"There are no reinforcements."

Though these words were harsh, Shen Yi didn’t wish to conceal the truth. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

He wasn’t arrogant but neither did he underestimate himself. Whether in merit or in strength, Nanyang definitely counted as a formidable general.

As long as there was any intent to reclaim lost territory, they would try everything to retain such a sharp blade.

But from the fact that the Human Emperor let him go, it was clear that the current Divine Dynasty had already lost the strength and will to resist, like fish on a chopping block, left to be slaughtered by the Great Sect.

"..."

Chenyi fell into silence, the joy in his eyes quickly fading. Even though he had expected it, hearing it confirmed extinguished his last shred of hope.

Shen Yi sat cross-legged, allowing Chenyi to grieve inwardly.

Though he was waiting for a change, he needed sufficient strength to seize the opportunity.

Being in the North Continent, the Bodhisattva Fruit Position of Extreme Nine-Nine Changes was his hidden trump card for survival. To openly elevate his status within the sect, it had to be the Shenxu Dao Fruit.

[Remaining Demon Lifespan: Eight thousand three hundred cycles]

The Dragon Lizard he slew while leaving the Southern Continent, combined with the demon lifespan of the little White Dragon before him, constituted all of Shen Yi’s current accumulations.

He closed his eyes and began to extract the Heavenly Dao Order Origin.

...

"Master, that man has been mingling with the refugees all day, wandering around as if this place were his dojo!"

The cultivator in charge of relief efforts hurried over, his face filled with indignation.

One must know, once the True Monarch Temple for Ling Su was established, the grand offering platform would also accommodate several statues of children alongside the statue of the master.

Seeing someone causing trouble now, how could he not be anxious?

"..."

Ling Su sat at the summit of Heavenly Tower Mountain. There was no need for her disciple to report; one glance was enough to see that damnable figure, lingering like a parasitic worm.

Her face turned dark, and she waved her sleeve to dismiss the disciple.

It seemed her previous warnings hadn’t been heeded at all by the Insect Demon disciple.

Relying on the unspoken guilt of a certain sect elder, he behaved so wantonly, with a death wish written all over his face!

"Senior Brother Mao Feng, can you hurry?"

Ling Su took out a jade slip and couldn’t help but urge.

If this continued, she feared she might lose control of her temper and kill the boy with one palm.

"Don’t worry, junior sister. It has been on its way for a long time. Considering the time, it should arrive soon." A man’s reassuring voice came from the jade slip.

Upon hearing this, Ling Su pressed her lips, forcibly suppressing her emotions.
