From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 328 Sweeping Across the Younger Generation

"The Sparrow King's sister-in-law, uncle, and brother are all gone. He can endure all this. He must be a divine being." Xiong Chumo ran across the vast ascension platform, heading towards the Sparrow King's secluded cultivation place.

As a divine traveler, even if he is not based in the land of the gods, he can easily explore the scenery thousands of miles away with his divine soul alone. If he connects with the plague qi, he can sense even further distances, but it will be much more blurry.

"Huh?" Xiong Chumo was stunned for a moment, noticing that the place where the Sparrow King was located was very lively at the moment, with a large group of Qi practitioners gathered there.

What happened?

He was surprised and suspicious, but the divine power fluctuations of the Qi practitioners in the distance were extremely chaotic, canceling out his perception and making everything blurry. Moreover, he was seriously injured and needed to get closer to find out what was happening.

In the deep of night, Xiong Chumo moved swiftly across the giant chessboard like an ant, and soon arrived at the place where the Sparrow King was cultivating.

"Has the Sparrow King gone mad? He killed the Divine Wanderer of [Mount Zhubi]."

In the void, wisps of calamity howled mournfully, and many demons had solemn expressions, having witnessed from afar the scene of the Sparrow King killing the Wind-attribute Divine Traveler.

A middle-aged demon suddenly looked up and said, "The Sparrow King killing a demon who shares the same bloodline without cause is likely a sign of something big!"

Beneath the dark and heavy clouds, many demons harbored deep thoughts.

Xiong Chumo looked dazed. After killing the demon god You, the Sparrow King had vanished.
"That treacherous sparrow!" he thought angrily. The Sparrow King must have sensed something was wrong and gone into hiding. This incident filled him, already covered in wounds, with rage: "What exactly does he want?!"

At this moment, Xiong Chumo's resentment towards the Sparrow Emperor even surpassed his hatred for Xinzhai.

"Yeah, he sent you to your deaths, what exactly does he want to do?" A slightly puzzled voice rang in Xiong Chumo's ear.

"They must be afraid that I, the god, will compete with them for the supreme creation, so they are using this as a tool to kill the demon!" Xiong Chumo shouted fiercely.

"Uh...aren't you overestimating yourself?"

"How dare the Sparrow King offend me? I'll give him an inch during the Mountain and Sea Banquet, but once we're out, he'll still have to respectfully address me as 'elder brother'," Xiong Chumo sneered.

Humanity's fire magic is at its peak, and it is extremely difficult for Vermilion Bird Mountain to produce a True Lord of Fire. Therefore, it needs the assistance of the major demon forces in the western part of the Southern Region.

"The Sparrow King is indeed cautious in his actions," Chen Xuan nodded noncommittally.

"Heh, to put it bluntly, in the millions of years that the entire Immortal Palace has dominated in recent times, Mount Zhuque has never produced a Great True Lord whose word carries weight..." Xiong Chumo said, suddenly realizing that the other party's voice was very familiar, and subconsciously turned his head to take a look.

"boom!"

A gleaming white bone club struck Xiong Chumo in the face, leaving him covered in blood, his teeth flying everywhere, and he fell backward.

"Xin Zhai!" he roared in horror. The other party had caught up with them!
"Don't yell, you useless demon." Chen Xuan held a large bone club and struck Xiong Chumo. Each strike made the earth tremble and blood splatter everywhere.

Xiong Chumo was indeed quite skilled. He used the Qingnang Technique but failed to pinpoint Xiong Chumo's location accurately, missing him by hundreds of miles. It took Chen Xuan considerable effort to finally locate him.

"This..." The demons and humans gathered around quickly dispersed upon seeing this. They were stunned. The famous Black Wind Mountain Divine Traveler was being hit by Xinzhai with a big stick.

"Roar!"

Xiong Chumo was terrified. Countless bones in his body broke, but he was filled with boundless fear. The Sparrow Emperor would not easily clash with the direct descendants of a major sect, but the human immortals were different. He had blood on his hands and dared to kill the direct descendants of a major sect.

With a loud "boom!"

A beam of plague-like light shot out from Xiong Chumo's body, transforming into a plague demon wearing an ancient Nuo mask. It charged towards Chen Xuan, baring its fangs and claws, utterly terrifying. Chen Xuan shattered the plague demon with a single blow, sweeping away all the filth.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xiong Chumo fled into the sky, but Chen Xuan rose up and gave chase.

"Stop chasing! You won't survive even if you kill them all!" Xiong Chumo roared, "You've completely offended Xiaoyao Mountain, do you want to offend Black Wind Mountain as well? The end of the Mountain and Sea Banquet will be your death day!"

Ordinary geniuses die and that's it, but when a direct descendant of a saint like Xiong Chumo or Xiao Kunpeng falls, the current True Lord will never stand idly by.

Chen Xuan remained silent, continuing his pursuit and relentlessly unleashing devastating techniques.

However, the vitality of a fully-fledged Divine Traveler is truly tenacious, and even though their soul and body are riddled with holes, they still possess a formidable power of resistance.

"Heavens! Xinzhai is chasing Xiong Chumo..." On the ascension platform, the guests looked up in disbelief at the scene before them. Divine blood, carrying plague, poured down like a torrential rain, transforming into countless plague demons and insects.

"boom!"

Chen Xuan pursued Xiong Chumo for 30,000 li, and with a single sword strike, he extinguished all of the demon's life force, causing the demon to perish and his spirit to vanish.

Fragments of the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Emperor's Banner flew out, quickly cleaning up the battlefield and recovering the spoils of war.

Chen Xuan stood tall in the sky, overlooking the entire Ascension Platform, connecting the solar energy of the four lands, searching for the traces of the Sparrow Emperor. A moment later, he contacted Yan Yushu.

"The disappearance of the Sparrow King is due to those extraterrestrial rewards," Yan Yushu's inner voice echoed.

The Sparrow King had seen the Six Desires Heaven during the banquet, but at this moment, the Sparrow King and several other Divine Immortals had all broken free from the control of the Six Desires Heaven.

"Something's not right." Chen Xuan's expression was grave as he muttered to himself, "The Supreme Creation is playing tricks on us."

Because Xinzhai failed for the first time.

The two golden elixir patterns representing the Sparrow King and Flowing Frost had long since disappeared from view, as if all traces had been covered by a giant hand.

"How could two mere Divine Immortal Seeds escape the Heart's Fasting List and surveillance?" Chen Xuan was shocked. This was the real reason why he wanted to use Xiong Chumo to find the Sparrow Emperor.

Aside from the power of the Supreme Heaven level, he couldn't think of anything else in the Mountain and Sea Banquet that could escape the Heart's Fasting's lock.

"The supreme creation is helping them."

……

Meanwhile, under another sky.

"They should all be dead." The Sparrow Emperor sighed softly, "The Supreme Creation doesn't give anyone a way out. The whole world is our enemy. Who can hold onto them? They're a hot potato."

He gazed into the darkness of the distant sky, where an invisible, cruel hand enveloped the entire ascension platform, and everyone's fate was sealed.

The Sparrow King was unwilling to deal with Sparrow Girl and Sparrow Uncle himself, so he allowed them to go to Xinzhai to die.

"Start with the easy ones first, then move on to the difficult ones. Xinzhai should be dealt with last." The Sparrow King spoke with certainty. Then, he put away a map and traveled to a nearby human at the Thorough Earth Realm.

"Start with the difficult, then the easy, Venerable One of Ten Thousand Worlds, let's begin with you." In the distance, Liu Shuang found Di Tian, ​​who was cultivating in seclusion. She rubbed her hands together, and a domineering martial aura rose from her graceful figure, causing the sky and the earth to tremble.

"Hmm?" Di Tian opened his pale golden eyes, and his invincible domain of emptiness of all laws was instantly pushed out, covering a thousand miles of land.

His sword embryo and cauldron, both of which were of the Red Dust level, were taken away by Xinzhai, but now he has a treasure made of better materials, which comes from an extraterrestrial force that is related to the ancient Wan Shi Zun.

“Then…” Liu Shuang twisted her wrist, her clear, cold voice ringing out: “I’ll shatter you at the same realm.”

Hundreds of Liushuang, at the same cultivation level, appeared like divine soldiers and generals, blotting out the sky and the sun. Each body was like a real person, possessing boundless divine power.

On the land further away.

Thunder and plague stretched for thousands of miles.

Niu Ben of Jilei Mountain was like a god descending to earth, holding a giant thunder hammer in one hand and a plague-repelling drum in the other, the loud drumbeats resounding through the sky.

"Immortal Yu, a True Lord said that you are the strongest immortal seed and furnace from ancient times to the present. Even the Supreme Heaven in his youth was probably inferior to you by two points... but, that's all."

The Imperial Immortal, covered in blood, gradually lost his gentle smile.

"The difficulty of seeking the Dao is greater than ascending to the heavens." He spoke, pushing up the Azure Heaven Crown on his head, and streams of purple energy shot into the sky, stretching for thirty thousand miles.

This is the supreme inheritance of the Little Azure Heaven Dao Ancestor. At this moment, when it is activated, Su Fuyao, Bei Minghan and other immortal seeds can only touch the surface of the supreme technique, but Nan Mian has entered the inner sanctum.

Soon after.

"Keep running!" Nanmian bled, his physical body destroyed, and a wisp of his broken soul transformed into a golden crow and fled.

In the distance, Emperor Yu was admiring various treasures, constantly marveling at his own incredible good fortune. But the next moment, his expression changed drastically: "Nanmian, meeting you is truly the worst luck imaginable!"

Nanmian charged forward, and instantly, the area was enveloped in a thunderous plague. Moments later, Emperor Yu was torn to pieces, and countless treasures rained down from the sky like a shower of light.

"Kill them all!" Niu Ben of Jilei Mountain was unstoppable, sweeping away all enemies.

Following the map, he pursued the fleeing spirits of the Immortal Emperor and Emperor Yu, causing bloodshed for tens of thousands of miles. Along the way, he killed everyone he encountered, regardless of whether they were human or demon.

In a short while, hundreds of innocent banquet attendees died tragically, their remains turning into corpses.

Most immortals in the world only live for three or four hundred years, while those of the highest talent usually have the opportunity to reach the stage of cessation after the age of one hundred and wait for the position of True Sovereign.

Niu Ben is the only one among the participants of the Mountain and Sea Banquet whose age far exceeds sixty years. His cultivation level and combat strength are insurmountable compared to the others.

“Ox God, when you ascended to the Divine Realm, my family even came to our door to deliver congratulatory gifts!” a crane cried out, its blood-red feathers flying everywhere.

"Boom!" The thunderous hammer crashed down, leaving a huge crater on the ascension platform, with blood and feathers splattering everywhere.

This crane was one of the fifty ultimate geniuses, one of the few who had reached the Divine Realm of Thorough Earth, but under a single blow, its body and the Divine Realm of Ascension were reduced to ashes, leaving it nearly dead.

The divine beings unleashed a massacre, leaving mountains of blood and bones in this direction, silencing the heavens and earth.

"Zheng!"

On the other side of the sky, silver gunfire pierced through the heavens, and fragments of starlight fell to earth.

Liu Chen, clad in a crimson robe and silver armor, pursued Yao Feiyue like lightning, leaving a trail of shattered scales and splattered demon blood that filled the sky.

"General Liu, I, the Crown Prince, am here to assist you!" Nearby, Ji Youbing sensed the fluctuations in divine power and took the initiative to join the attack. The four ancient dynasties of Zhongzhou often cooperated, and he and Liu Chenqiang were nodding acquaintances.

Ji Youbing's batch of immortal seed cauldrons are extremely perfect. Even when facing ordinary Transcendent Gods, they have the power to fight and have a good chance of winning.

"Clang!" A spear flashed for 30,000 miles, the Milky Way seemed to fall down, and Ji Youbing was swept away into a pile of blood and bones.

Liu Chen raised his silver spear, deflecting the falling treasures, and looked back, saying, "Crown Prince Ji, we are both human, so I showed mercy with this strike, but not again next time we meet."

At this moment, the complex look in the eyes of this peerless general was gone from the daytime gaze he had given to the other humans; only his unwavering pursuit of the Dao remained.

"What happened?" In the void, mud and sand swirled down. Ji Youbing, resurrected from the Earth element, blood trickling from his lips, his face filled with astonishment. No one knew what arduous mental journey the four immortal beings had endured during their divine travels.

But after dark, they began to hunt down anyone who stood in their way.

distance.

Taking advantage of Ji's illness, Yao Feiyue suddenly appeared, transforming into a wisp of light Taiyin Xuan light and disappearing into the darkness, temporarily escaping Liu Chenqiang's pursuit.

"Possessed?" Her face turned pale, unable to comprehend Liu Chenqiang's motives.

Because the Nuwa Mountain in the Southern Region has always been aloof from worldly affairs. Not to mention the previous generation of immortals like the Sparrow King and Niu Ben, even her contemporaries like Six Ears, Little Dragon King, and Peach Blossom Demon, which one of them has a reputation a hundred times worse than hers?
Moreover, General Liu even made a move against the Crown Prince of the Great Li Dynasty... Does he intend to kill everyone? There is absolutely no need for a Mountain and Sea Banquet, a contest for creation, to go to such an extreme degree.

"If you wantonly kill the direct descendants of major sects, how will you survive after the Mountain and Sea Banquet?"

Yao Feiyue pondered. Chen Xuan of Xinzhai still had a sense of propriety in his actions. Although he killed Xiao Kunpeng, there was a reason for it, and Qingnang might be able to "justify it." But Liu Chenqiang was unrestrained and indiscriminately killed. How could those True Monarchs and powerful figures in the world allow him to live even a breath longer?
She immediately used the Taiyin talisman to cast a divination, not knowing what the result would be, but she spoke to herself with absolute certainty.

"The Immortal Seed's Divine Travel requires the slaughter of all those attending the banquet... eight or nine out of ten, this is the method to unlock the Supreme Creation."

Yao Feiyue speculated, "They want to kill the most threatening group of people before anyone else can react."

And clearly, Liu Chenqiang's first opponent was this youngest demon immortal.

"boom!"

A beam of light, like a silver river falling from the heavens, crashed into Yao Feiyue's hiding place. The divine power was like a vast ocean bursting its banks, stirring up a raging torrent.

"They have some kind of location tracking method!" Yao Feiyue flew out horizontally, bursting with bloody light, and immediately realized that something was wrong.

Her meticulously laid out concealment methods were of a very high level, and Liu Chenqiang, who was not a Yin-Yang Dao Divine Traveler, was able to find him repeatedly, which definitely indicates a big problem!
"Next, kill the Six-Eared Ape." In the void, Liu Chen Spear appeared. He put away a map that emitted golden light, and then raised a silver spear, pointing it at Yao Feiyue, and said, "Demoness, there is nowhere to escape."

Yao Feiyue wiped the bloodstains from her lips with her fingertips, her pale golden vertical pupils lighting up with anger, and said, "A bunch of ignorant and arrogant immortal beings, do you dare to ask any other lineage in the world? No immortal is as arrogant as you!"

"It is precisely because I do not wish to perish that I seek a glimmer of hope." Liu Chenqiang laughed loudly: "Supreme fortune is not easy to obtain."

"What are you talking about, supreme fortune? Do you think I've never had it before?" Yao Feiyue said coldly.

"Oh?" Liu Chenqiang's eyes narrowed. The demon immortal he had chosen seemed different from the other immortal immortals.

"Ha! You immortal seeds and golden cores have no one to rely on, but I am not!" Yao Feiyue sneered, crushed a scroll in her hand, and said, "Old friends, wake up and lend me a hand."

A strange Daoist charm wafted through the air, spreading far and wide.

When all the geniuses entered the Mountain and Sea Banquet, the Dao Palace cleansed away the Dao Palace's influence on their bodies, including the methods left by the True Lords. However, Yao Feiyue was an exception; there were some things that the Dao Palace could not remove.

"Hmm?" Liu Chenqiang was lost in thought, not noticing any changes. He couldn't help but wonder, "Are all Qi practitioners of the Taiyin School so mystical?"

Under the distant sky.

Chen Xuan failed to catch the Sparrow King and returned to his secluded cultivation place. He had just found Ye Kui, who was covered in wounds, when suddenly his pupils burned and his heart temples emitted a signal.

"Something slid out." Chen Xuan's gaze sharpened; it was something related to immortals.

Not long ago, he entered the Heavenly Mandate of the Ten Thousand Worlds Venerable, and his Heart Fasting was strengthened once again. As soon as any trace of immortality appeared nearby, he was immediately and keenly detected.

"Yao Feiyue, something's definitely wrong with her!" Chen Xuan realized that the source of this was the demoness.

Of all the immortal beings he has encountered so far, he is 90% certain that the golden cores of Yu Zhe Xian and Yao Fei Yue are intricately connected with ancient immortals.

"Heroes of the world are as numerous as carp crossing a river, none of them should be underestimated." Chen Xuan always believed that the most dangerous person at the Mountain and Sea Banquet was Yao Feiyue, even the four Divine Immortal Seeds were not as dangerous as her.

……

Meanwhile, chaos erupted in the outside world.

On Mount Qingnang, Zhang Dongxuan lit a divine fire, as if facing a formidable enemy, and whispered, "Master, are you asleep...?"

Inside the main hall, Old Zhang, dressed in tattered clothes, sat against the mural on the wall and suddenly fell asleep, emitting soft snores.

"He's wandered into the Great Void in spirit?" Zhang Dongxuan asked, puzzled and not understanding what had happened.

In the vast and boundless void, all was darkness and chaos, as if it had existed since time immemorial.

"Enemy attack! The Celestial Palace is here!" Suddenly, countless terrified voices rang out. A goddess in flowing robes cried out in alarm. She immediately summoned the ancient True Lord-level deity sleeping in the forbidden area of ​​Yaochi.

Like the Great Wilderness, the Forbidden Land of Yaochi is also hidden in a fragment of mountains and seas in the Taixu.

"boom!"

Within the forbidden area, boundless radiance shone forth, and one after another, pairs of dazzling golden eyes lit up as nine figures awoke from their slumber.

The legendary Jade Pool Forbidden Land is home to nine True Lord-level deities!
Moreover, in many places within the forbidden area, other mysterious fluctuations resurfaced, coldly observing the uninvited celestial palace.

"The gods of Yaochi have no intention of seeking immortality, so why have they come here from the celestial palace?" A distant and indifferent voice questioned from within the forbidden area.

In the boundless Great Ruins, a majestic celestial palace approaches, overflowing with precious light, and a jade bell vibrates, ringing ten times in succession, as if calling upon an ancient being that is asleep.

Immediately afterwards, the gate of the celestial palace trembled slowly, and through the huge gap, boundless black mist surged, from which some objects could be seen emerging.

"The abode of immortals who live forever, the home of Taoists who live as long as the heavens!"

Within the black mist, two divine couplets fell, radiating golden immortal light. The primordial energy surged, and amidst the magnificent mountains and rivers, an immortal tree grew, its canopy blocking out the sky and the sun. Hanging from it were more than ten human-shaped fruits, their fragrance filling the air.

That is the legendary ginseng fruit tree from an ancient Taoist temple of the Earth element. Smelling it can extend one's life by 360 years, and eating one fruit can add 47,000 years to one's life!

However, the True Lords of Yaochi were horrified when they glimpsed the "original form"—the Immortal Tree of Immortality did not bear ginseng fruit, but rather a group of True Lords of Earth Virtue.

The faces of those Earth Virtue True Lords were both ferocious and serene, their bodies dripping with blood, a truly terrifying sight.

"This..." The gods of Yaochi were stunned. Even a True Lord was powerless in the face of the Celestial Palace. It was just food on the table for the Golden Core Immortals.

"Yaochi, retreat from the world for three years." An aged voice appeared in the celestial palace and descended into the forbidden land of Yaochi. Mountains turned into colorful jade, rivers became quicksand, and countless divine blood races turned into lifeless stone sculptures.

"Immortal Lord, the mortal tribulations are the authority of the Jade Pool, as has been the case since ancient times." A True Lord-level deity's expression changed, and he said, "The Jade Pool requests an audience with the [Nine Suns Illuminating Immortal God]."

The Nine Yang Immortal God was an immortal who ascended to heaven 100,000 years ago, and was the only naturally born deity among the Twelve Golden Elixir Immortals.

"..."

The celestial palace fell silent for a moment, then some voices of incomprehension and sarcasm arose.

“Nine Yang? Yaochi is unaware that in recent years, the name Nine Yang has gradually manifested in the mortal world.” A loud ox bark rang out.

"They may have underestimated the True Monarch-level Heart Fasting Technique." The dragon roared, and the sea of ​​thunder surged.

"To allow the Heavenly God Jiuyang to ascend is to allow Him to exchange His life with Xinzhai... Do you expect me, this ape, to do the exchange?" The arrogant ape voice floated: "Ignorant Heavenly Gods and Earthly Deities."

At this moment, in addition to the appearance of the Earth Virtue Immortal, three ancient immortal voices from the demon race also appeared. With just a wisp of sound, the Great Ruins collapsed and decayed, giving rise to countless bizarre and wondrous divine scenes.

Within the forbidden land of Yaochi, the nine True Lord-level deities were horrified, for the Sun Immortal position, which originally belonged to the divine race, was now vacant!
Moreover, at this moment, it was actually four corrupt Golden Core Immortals who were jointly oppressing Yaochi.

Within the celestial palace, the four voices that emanate the myriad phenomena of heaven and earth continued their conversation.

"The Taiyin Immortal has awakened us. She recently returned to the mountains and seas and embarked on a new path of immortal energy. We cannot ignore her plea for help."

"This is really troublesome. I really wish I could just shatter the Great Wilderness."

"It would be too damaging to the Daoist hearts of mortals, turning them into a stagnant pool... In recent years, some promising talents have indeed emerged in the mortal world."

"The mountain spirit has entered Shangyang Heaven, seeking a new method. If it succeeds, let's seize her destiny."

"To claim credit for the work of Heaven... well, they're nothing more than nourishment for a bunch of celestial palaces."

When the True Lords of Yaochi heard the ancient voice coming from the Immortal Palace, even the most indifferent gods and deities were filled with awe and trembling.

“Fellow immortals, even if the Jade Pool is sealed, the mortal tribulations still need to be controlled. The cultivation laws established by the ancient sages cannot be easily changed…” a true lord deity spoke carefully.

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Palace fell silent once more.

"Do they think this is a discussion?" After a long while, a dragon's roar sneered, "This matter is an inviolable notification, and there will be no further discussion."

As soon as the words fell, a withered hand emerged from the celestial palace, wrapped with a broken bronze chain. With a flick of its yellow sleeve, it seemed to encompass all the heavens and myriad realms, and countless layers of primordial energy covered the entire Yaochi Forbidden Land.

Everything is in your sleeve!

……

On the ascension platform, countless dazzling spear lights relentlessly bombarded a star-like bead.
"Escape into the cave and eke out a living?!" Liu Chenqiang's voice was as cold and hard as iron as he continuously used destructive techniques to bombard the [Great Luo Heaven].

Although it is the famous Great Luo Heaven Cave in ancient history, the cauldron can hardly activate even a fraction of divine power. In the end, it is still far from the Divine Travel Law of a great realm. As long as he continues to bombard it, he will be able to enter the Great Luo Heaven sooner or later.

At that time, the demoness will have nowhere to escape.

"Humans, just you wait!" In the cave, Yao Feiyue stood on the mountain peak, then closed her eyes and slowly fell into the boundless abyss.

In the distance, the Two Realms Ship was reforged and rose again. Chen Xuan went about his business as usual, squeezing out time to study Ye Kui, who was on high alert.

"You may begin!" Ye Kui said, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"We have our own path to follow." Chen Xuan reassured the tense Extreme God. There was chaos on the Ascension Platform, but they had their own way to strengthen themselves.

On the other side, Yan Yushu of the Six Desires Heaven suddenly sensed something, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly closed her eyes. Then, in a sudden tribulation in the mortal world, she looked down at Yao Feiyue who was undergoing tribulation.

"Pretty girl, will you let me pass?" Yao Feiyue raised her head, looking down at the vast mortal world, and smiled as she spoke.

"Huh?" Yan Yushu was stunned.
