Undying Life

Chapter 861: Chapter 861: The Heavenly Punishment Extinguishes the Cult Leader

A massive purple lightning bolt descended from the sky, striking directly at Zhong Shan. It came with an overwhelming momentum, as if determined to kill Zhong Shan in an instant.

Zhong Shan looked up coldly, staring straight at the lightning. Just as the lightning was about to reach within a meter of him, a large amount of lightning suddenly surrounded Zhong Shan. A dense purple lightning sphere formed around him and met the incoming lightning.

There was no sound of collision. The incoming lightning struck the purple lightning sphere around Zhong Shan, twisted, and was absorbed into it, disappearing without a trace.

The lightning around Zhong Shan dissipated, but he did not relax.

"Is this the true nature of the esteemed leader of the Purple Sky Sect? Acting like a coward in the Soul Duel, and still not having enough? Or is it that you are inherently a coward?" Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.

"The Sacred King of the Great Yi?" A thunderous voice echoed across the land.

A massive pressure descended from the sky, pressing down directly on Zhong Shan.

"I hold the 'Life Position' of the heaven and earth. You are merely a projection. Do you think such pressure can suppress me?" Zhong Shan retorted firmly.

In the distance, the figure of the Purple Sky Sect Leader slowly materialized on the plaza.

"The Heavenly Calamity Chessboard. The Sacred King of the Great Yi has impressive means indeed. The grand array painstakingly set up by the world's number one demon fox was broken by you, and you were the first to locate the grave of the Nine-Tailed Fox. You are more formidable than I imagined," the Purple Sky Sect Leader said calmly.

"Did the Purple Sky Sect Leader only realize this today?" Zhong Shan sneered.

"After you opened the heavens back then and retreated safely despite facing over two hundred great immortals, I knew that keeping you alive would be a disaster sooner or later! Unfortunately, someone told me not to touch you. Otherwise, I would have eradicated you that day!" the Purple Sky Sect Leader said sternly.

"Someone told you not to touch me?" Zhong Shan squinted his eyes.

Who? Who could influence the decisions of the Purple Sky Sect Leader?

The Purple Sky Sect Leader also glanced at a nearby stone stele. Seeing the words on it, his expression changed, and a trace of urgency flashed in his eyes. Secrets of the Sages?

"Enough. Step aside now," the Purple Sky Sect Leader commanded.

"What an imposing manner the Purple Sky Sect Leader has. Do you think I, Zhong Shan, will be ordered around by you?" Zhong Shan scoffed.

With a cold look at Zhong Shan, the Purple Sky Sect Leader said indifferently, "Although I agreed not to harm you, do not provoke my bottom line repeatedly."

From the Purple Sky Sect Leader's gaze, Zhong Shan saw a hint of killing intent, as if he hoped Zhong Shan would continue to provoke him.

"Since no one else will know, if you really want to make a move, then do it. Provoking me will only degrade your status! Let's see how powerful your projection really is!" Zhong Shan said disdainfully.

"Hmph!" The Purple Sky Sect Leader sneered.

With a gesture, he pointed at Zhong Shan, and a small lightning sphere appeared at the tip of his finger.

"Crackle..."

As the small lightning sphere appeared, countless lightning bolts from all directions gathered rapidly. In an instant, the roaring lightning engulfed the surroundings, filling the sky with electric threads.

The terrifying lightning storm obscured the sky and instantly drowned the surroundings in a sea of lightning.

Is this the power of mighty celestial techniques? Zhong Shan observed as endless lightning laws and rules surged from all directions, seemingly obeying the Purple Sky Sect Leader's command in an instant.

Ten thousand bolts of lightning surged toward Zhong Shan. The terrifying concentration of lightning would instantly kill even the strongest of celestial beings. But would Zhong Shan succumb?

Zhong Shan coldly smiled and said, "A projection is just a projection. Without a 'world,' how can you speak of victory?"

"Boom!"

In the high sky, a series of thunderous roars sounded. The originally blood-red sky suddenly changed, transforming into a faintly purple sky. The lightning gathered by the Purple Sky Sect Leader seemed unaffected and continued to accumulate more and more.

"It's useless. You celestial beings will never understand our realm. A world? Even if you possess a 'world,' so what? Within your world, I can still manipulate the laws of thunder. All lightning is at my command. Die!" the Purple Sky Sect Leader said coldly.

As he spoke, he pushed his finger forward, and the small lightning sphere, carrying an immense lightning storm, rushed directly toward Zhong Shan.

Zhong Shan smiled faintly.

"Bang!"

The massive lightning storm suddenly dispersed as if a terrifying suction force drew it up into the sky. Even the small lightning sphere pointed out by the Purple Sky Sect Leader was suddenly sucked into the clouds and disappeared.

The Purple Sky Sect Leader's expression changed.

"Purple Sky Sect Leader, actually, I am most proficient in lightning techniques!" Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.

The Purple Sky Sect Leader clearly did not expect his lightning storm to be so effortlessly neutralized.

"No, the world of a celestial being, no, even a great celestial being's 'world' shouldn't be able to break my 'lightning storm.' There is something strange about your world," the Purple Sky Sect Leader said with a frown.

"In my 'Divine Realm,' I am supreme. No one can use my things in my world, not even you. A purple lightning projection? Since your body is made of gathered lightning, let it become part of my Divine Realm's power!" Zhong Shan waved his hand.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, countless lightning bolts surrounded the Purple Sky Sect Leader, rotating rapidly around him. These lightning bolts were not summoned by the Purple Sky Sect Leader but controlled by Zhong Shan.

Countless lightning bolts swirled around the Purple Sky Sect Leader, forming a massive magnetic field with a terrifying suction force, pulling at his body.

"Crackle!"

A large number of lightning threads shot out from the Purple Sky Sect Leader's body. As a projection, his form was composed of infinite lightning, which Zhong Shan was now stripping away.

The Purple Sky Sect Leader was startled by the scene before him, never expecting Zhong Shan to be so proficient in lightning magnetic techniques, able to break his projection body.

"Courting death!" the Purple Sky Sect Leader roared angrily. With a flick of his sleeve, he slammed his palm toward the surrounding magnetic field. freёweɓnovel.com

"Boom!"

With a terrifying force, the Purple Sky Sect Leader's palm disrupted the lightning magnetic field, creating a giant starburst-like explosion that illuminated the surroundings. In an instant, it seemed as if the entire Divine Realm was filled with explosive lightning, shaking violently as if it might be torn apart by the lightning storm.

"I believe it's you who are courting death!" Zhong Shan's voice suddenly came from within the storm.

The Purple Sky Sect Leader turned to look, and at that moment, a massive eye, ten thousand feet wide, suddenly opened in the void behind him. The pupil, filled with lightning threads, was the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.

"Boom!"

The Purple Sky Sect Leader's body exploded, turning into endless purple lightning, which was absorbed by the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.

The terrifying Eye of Heavenly Punishment had managed to 'look' the Purple Sky Sect Leader to death with a single glance.

The surrounding lightning gradually receded, and the world reappeared, restoring the Divine Realm to its original state. Zhong Shan stood before the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, nodded, and stepped out of the Divine Realm.

The projection of the Purple Sky Sect Leader had unexpectedly died so miserably at Zhong Shan's hands.

At the same time, above the Purple Sky Dojo, an endless sea of meritorious clouds roared, with massive lightning bolts exploding in all directions.

"The Cult Leader is enraged? It's been tens of thousands of years since he last showed true anger. Who could have provoked him?" Many disciples looked up at the sky in astonishment.

Meanwhile, in front of Su Daji's tomb, Zhong Shan reappeared on the plaza.

The projection of the ancient immortal, in terms of strength, was only comparable to someone who had just entered the realm of great immortals. Without magical treasures and without a 'world,' relying solely on experienced celestial techniques? In the Divine Realm, no matter how many celestial techniques you possess, you can only become nourishment for the Divine Realm.

Having killed the projection of the Purple Sky Sect Leader, Zhong Shan felt no satisfaction because he knew that the destruction of the projection merely signaled the imminent arrival of the true body. It wouldn't be long before the Purple Sky Sect Leader arrived in person. He hoped that Princess Nine-Tails would hurry.

With a heavy heart, Zhong Shan continued to guard Daji's tomb.

An hour later, another immense aura swept over.

"Boom!"

A strong wind swept across, stirring up a large amount of blood rain.

Zhong Shan looked up. Sima Zongheng stared solemnly at the entire plaza.

Seeing the huge stone stele, he raised an eyebrow, then looked down at Zhong Shan. When he saw Zhong Shan, Sima Zongheng's eyes turned cold and sharp.

"Sage King Zhong, what great fortune you have to find this place. What's inside?" Sima Zongheng landed on the plaza.

"It's none of your business!" Zhong Shan shook his head.

Sima Zongheng's expression changed suddenly.

"Princess Nine-Tails, is she inside? What's in there?" Sima Zongheng demanded.

"I told you, it's none of your business. Leave the way you came!" Zhong Shan said firmly.

"Hahaha, Zhong Shan, who do you think you are? Do you think you're still in the Great Yi? Are you still a Sage King? You're just a prisoner. A celestial being? Hmph!" Sima Zongheng said sternly.

The 'Longevity' great blade had already appeared in Zhong Shan's hand.

Blocking Sima Zongheng was still within Zhong Shan's capability. After all, Sima Zongheng had recently had his Dao heart shattered by Zhong Shan, significantly weakening his strength.

Sima Zongheng squinted, reaching out to take a fiery red great blade and a red longsword.

The longsword was tossed up, flying around Sima Zongheng, focusing a powerful sword intent on Zhong Shan.

"Let's see how powerful the Sage King of the Great Yi really is!" Sima Zongheng sneered.

As he spoke, he slashed at Zhong Shan with the red great blade, which instantly grew to a thousand feet in size. The scorching heat, like the fire from the earth's core, rushed towards Zhong Shan.

Heavenly Waves, Ten Thousand Layers!

Zhong Shan countered with a slash, the terrifying cold from the Longevity blade rushing forward like the chilling breath from a dark spring. The bone-chilling cold froze the blood rain and the earth as the blade cut through.

One cold, one hot, the two extreme energies clashed violently.

At this moment, the red longsword beside Sima Zongheng also transformed into a crimson streak, slashing towards Zhong Shan.

Main and secondary weapons, Sima Zongheng's two celestial weapons displayed their formidable power. But in terms of magical treasures, would Zhong Shan be inferior to Sima Zongheng?
