I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 547 No way to enter the earth, no way to ascend to heaven

Even as Xia Daoming's voice still echoed in the air, a tall and valiant woman stepped out onto the waves, pointing her spear at the dark sea, instantly causing towering waves to surge up.

Not only that, but the hundreds of miles of sea surface and the towering waves instantly froze, blocking the hundreds of miles of sea surface and the surrounding area, leaving only the airspace above as an escape route.

"Mysterious Netherworld True Water Divine Weapon!"

Yao Xi cultivated ice-based magic, so she naturally recognized the Xuanming True Water. Upon seeing this, the faces of the beautiful figures all showed shock, and without thinking, they flew away into the sky.

The Xuanming True Water Divine Weapon drew upon the ice formed by the power of water, and the ice could freeze over hundreds of miles, demonstrating the weapon's immense power, which was far beyond what her primordial spirit avatar could quickly break through.

As long as the ice blocks her for a short time, it will give Xia Daoming and Zuo Dongge enough time to keep her here forever.

Yao Xi's judgment was absolutely correct.

Each time Xia Daoming conceives a divine weapon, it's not simply a matter of adding one more weapon to two.

Rather, with each additional divine weapon and each advancement in realm, the strength of the preceding divine weapons experiences a near-qualitative leap.

In the past, Xuanming Nuwa could not freeze a hundred miles of sea with a single swing of her spear, but now she can do it easily. This is a leap in strength.

Unfortunately, while Yao Xi's idea was good, reality was extremely cruel.

Just as the beautiful figures were about to rush into the sky, a dark cloud appeared in the sky above the hundred-mile sea area, completely obscuring the only gap in this area.

Dark clouds filled the air with a sinister aura, and above them stood a tall man clad in black flame armor, with flaming black hair and wielding a three-foot-long fire blade—none other than the Netherworld Flame Lord.

Both the Banner of Ten Thousand Ghosts and the Netherworld Fire are the bane of ghosts.

Yao Xi is a primordial spirit without a physical body.

She didn't recognize the Banner of Ten Thousand Ghosts, but she recognized the Netherworld Ghost Fire. Before the flames even descended, she was so frightened that her face turned pale.

But at this moment, there was truly no way to enter the earth or ascend to heaven. Even though she knew that the Ten Thousand Ghost Banner was no ordinary item and that the Netherworld Flame Lord was a counter to her true fire, she could only grit her teeth and gather the two hundred or so figures together, transforming into four figures.

Divided, they are weak; united, they are strong.

Faced with such a terrifying force blocking her path, Yao Xi had no choice but to change her strategy and regroup her power.

If they are combined into one stream, there will be no chance of escape; if they are divided into four streams, there is at least a sliver of hope.

Unfortunately, Yao Xi underestimated the power of the Ten Thousand Ghost Banner and the Netherworld Flame Lord.

Chains wreathed in ghostly flames descended from the dark clouds, and with a flick and a twist, they bound and imprisoned the four figures.

Four beautiful figures let out a shrill scream, their bodies bursting with radiant light, trying to break free from the chains of ghost fire.

However, the rosy glow was constantly burned upon contact with the ghostly fire, turning into specks of starlight and dissipating into wisps of smoke.

As the chains tightened, the beautiful figure shrank accordingly.

Zuo Dongge looked up at the sky and watched as Yao Xi, who had just killed him and made him spit blood, was shrinking under the chains of ghost fire, with no chance to break free. He felt both happy and a strangely complicated feeling.

"You brat! You actually survived four Heavenly Tribulations in the Qi Refining stage without even telling your master beforehand, causing me a lot of worry." After a while, Zuo Dongge turned to Xia Daoming and glared at him.

"Hehe, it's rare for Master to survive two tribulations in such a short time. This disciple must keep my skills hidden and not spoil Master's fun!" Xia Daoming said.

"What a load of rubbish! You just want to see your teacher make a fool of himself!" Zuo Dongge glared again, his beard trembling.

"Master, I swear to God, you have completely misunderstood my filial piety!" Xia Daoming said, looking aggrieved. "Alright, I'm too lazy to argue with you. No matter how powerful you are, you're still my disciple!" Zuo Dongge waved his hand dismissively, a smug smile playing on his lips.

"Master, are you not planning to expel your disciples from the sect anytime soon?" Xia Daoming asked with a grin.

"You little rascal, you're really petty. You still remember things from over two hundred years ago so well! Rest assured, unless you want to be branded as a traitor, don't even dream of me expelling you from the sect. Haha!" As he finished speaking, Zuo Dongge couldn't help but burst into smug laughter.

"Master is mighty!" Xia Daoming immediately put on a bitter face and bowed to Zuo Dongge.

"Of course!" Zuo Dongge said shamelessly, stroking his goatee. Then he glanced at the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner that had fallen into Xia Daoming's hand and asked, "Did you capture that demonic dragon? What's next?"

"Of course we've captured it. Next, we'll find a place to properly refine this demonic dragon and see if we can extract any information from its dragon soul essence," Xia Daoming said, stroking the Myriad Ghost Banner in his palm.

The demonic dragon was just killed, and its dragon soul essence was collected into the Myriad Ghost Banner.

After saying that, Xia Daoming waved his hand, and Xuanming Wa Si and Youming Yan Jun, who had already cleaned up the battlefield, came stepping on the sea, knelt on one knee, and presented the spoils of war with both hands.

After Xia Daoming collected the spoils, the two divine soldiers stood up, their bodies gradually blurring and disappearing into Xia Daoming's chest.

Zuo Dongge watched this scene with a mixture of amazement and envy.

"This path of body refinement and divine weapon cultivation is truly profound!"

"It is indeed mysterious, but unfortunately the cultivation conditions are too harsh, especially the true water and true fire. I was very lucky to have managed to obtain three of them, but there is no trace of the others," Xia Daoming said with a sigh.

"Could it be that there's no news of real water and fire from Beizhenlushan?" Zuo Dongge asked.

"No, it's possible that my path of body refinement and divine weapon cultivation will only stop here in this realm. If I want to make further progress, I'll probably have to go to the Earthly Immortal Realm to seek opportunities," Xia Daoming replied.

"With your qualifications, you should be eligible to go to the Immortal Realm now, right?" Zuo Dongge asked.

Xia Daoming nodded and gave a general overview of the situation at Beizhenlu Mountain and the conditions for going to the Immortal Realm.

"You can go to the Earthly Immortal Realm after the third tribulation of the physical body? Then you could have done it a long time ago, right? When are you planning to go?" Zuo Dongge was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and then asked, a complicated look in his eyes.

There is anticipation, and there is reluctance...

"This matter is not urgent; we need to consider it carefully," Xia Daoming said.

Zuo Dongge knew that Xia Daoming was reluctant to part with his family and fellow disciples. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "Alright, we'll discuss everything when we get back to Qingyuan Sect."

As they were talking, the two arrived at an island.

The island is covered with lush vegetation, except for a few powerful creatures tainted by demonic energy, who only know how to kill and are bloodthirsty.

As soon as they saw Xia Daoming and Zuo Dongge land on the island, they immediately swarmed and attacked.

With a wave of his hand, Xia Daoming unleashed a barrage of sword light, instantly annihilating all the demons.

"Master, please protect me. I will first search and refine the dragon soul essence in this banner." After slaying all the demons, Xia Daoming bowed to Zuo Dongge.

“Alright, just cast the spell!” Zuo Dongge nodded, then sat cross-legged on the ground, holding the broken sword above his head like a sun illuminating all directions.

　That concludes today's update.
