Immortal Road.

How arrogant!

There were clearly four Void Realm cultivators gathered on the scene, yet Elder Chuyun was fighting two against four. Not only was he unafraid, he was also arrogant and boastful, displaying an overwhelming and awe-inspiring presence. Everyone on the field was terrified by his arrogance.

For no other reason than overwhelming strength!

Lin Shan remained unmoved upon hearing this, continuing to hide in the shadows and let him tease him.

It's not that he doesn't want to come out, but going out won't change the situation. He needs to continue observing, figuring out the methods and weaknesses of the two, and looking for opportunities to counter them and find a way to turn the tide.

Rushing out too early now will only lead to losing the initiative and getting bogged down in the mud.

Judging from the battle situation alone, it is clear that after Huangyue Laodao joined the battle, not only did it not improve the situation, but he also fell into a predicament like Jixuanjun.

Elder Chuyun dealt with them with ease; the two fully-developed domains were squeezed and deformed in his hands, gradually being eroded but he was powerless to stop them.

Because the opponent's virtual energy is far stronger than theirs, and the direct result of this strength is a stronger domain!

Unless one possesses extraordinary abilities, advancing beyond the Void Realm is significantly more difficult than ever before.

Xing Shuzi was extremely anxious. Their domains were half-destroyed and barely clinging to life, almost about to be dealt with by Elder Huang. However, Xiong Shan Shangren did not show up for a long time, so he shouted loudly at the Nirvana Avatar.

"Brother, surely Xiong Shan won't dare to come?"

"Uh, I don't think so."

The Annihilation Avatar stammered, and could only offer empty words of evasion at this moment.

Elder Huang laughed heartily, saying that dealing with the two was more than enough, while also remaining vigilant against outside attacks and guarding against a sneak attack from the sixth brother.

"What 'man from Xiongshan'? Even now, you can't possibly still not understand, can you? That guy is the culprit who made you take the blame!"

"The reason you ended up like this is all because that guy offended us."

"As for the Daoist of Nirvana beside you, he is just an avatar of his. You have actually been completely fooled by him all along."

"The man from Xiongshan is Zhong Shenxiu, and Zhong Shenxiu is the man from Xiongshan!"

Xing Shuzi remained silent. By this point, even a fool would know something was wrong; the truth was gradually coming to light.

He was tricked by that kid and his clone working together.

"If you can repent and turn around to help me deal with his clone, then we can let bygones be bygones!"

Even at this point, Elder Huang did not forget to sow discord and subdue the enemy, patiently guiding them.

"It's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep are lost, but Fellow Daoist Xing, you don't have much time left. I hope you'll think it over carefully soon."

Sure enough, after hearing this...

The Annihilation Avatar secretly glanced at the person beside him. Xing Shuzi's eyelids twitched, and his hand movements slowed down, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

He quickly spoke up to calm him down.

"Brother, you must not be misled by him. You almost died at his hands, and the two sides have become mortal enemies. If it weren't for me joining forces with you, we would inevitably be killed after the hunt, and neither of us would survive."

"Hmph, even if you band together, none of you will survive!"

Despite having a numerical advantage, the four-on-two team was completely outmatched. None of them were normal, and the addition of the old Taoist priest Huangyue only slightly improved the situation; it couldn't change the inevitable defeat.

At this moment, this scapegoat is cursing at Ji Xuanjun!
"Is this the alliance that promised me they'd gang up on that old thief Izumo? What's with those two old, weak, and disabled people?"

Ji Xuanjun remained silent. It turned out that he had secretly contacted the old Taoist Huangyue during this period. He originally planned to ambush Elder Huang and his companion after the trade fair, but instead, he caught them off guard!
The situation was dire, so he secretly began to communicate with Xing Shuzi.

Should we try to escape and betray the old Taoist of Desolate Mountain and the Taoist of Silent Annihilation?
Lin Shan, who was hiding in the shadows, keenly sensed this and knew that he could not delay any longer, otherwise the alliance would fall apart.

He immediately made up his mind and looked up at the sky.

Beside the large black chimney, a square, flat armadillo-shaped aura was slowly rotating; this was the aura card that had been used to draw Elder Huang's fortune card earlier!
His own domain has not yet recovered, and if he wants to participate in the war, he can only rely on the luck of others.

Now is the perfect opportunity to divide and conquer the enemy!
He secretly transmitted his voice to Xing Shuzi, the Silent Avatar, Ji Xuanjun, and the Old Daoist Huangyue, instructing them to combine the two battlefields into one.

The four men had different expressions upon hearing the telepathic message. They were all excited, knowing that their ally had arrived. Without hesitation, they joined forces and staked their success or failure on the arrival of the final person.

Elder Chuyun and Elder Huang were unaware of what was about to happen when they brought the Lava Domain and the Yellow Sand Domain together, effectively dividing and surrounding each other's four domains. They couldn't help but smile at each other.

"Originally, if you fought individually, you could have held out for a while. Now that you've banded together and merged into one battlefield, you're even more doomed!"

"Hahaha, Brother Chuyun, these four are really stupid. They've fallen into our domains, and now even a god couldn't save them. We don't have to worry about them escaping anymore!"

From the outside, two major domains, one red and one yellow, occupied the entire sky. Inside, four small domains—the Mountain Domain, the Annihilation Domain, the Star Domain, and the Strange Domain—were like candles flickering in the wind, constantly sliding like bubbles being squeezed.

The four people had imagined that the Master of Xiongshan would not come; instead, they were greeted by yet another uninvited guest!
A sandstorm rushed forward without hesitation, crashing headlong into Elder Chuyun's lava domain.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM~~~
The next moment, like a meteor falling to the ground, it smashed through the domain in one fell swoop. The elder Izumo inside was caught off guard and was dumbfounded when he saw it clearly!
"Fellow Daoist Huang, what is this?"

The new realm was incredibly powerful, with howling yellow sand and winding sand dunes. One after another, the sand dunes collided and exploded, only to coalesce again in the blink of an eye, turning to wreak havoc in all directions.

It's exactly the same as Elder Huang's domain, and even the inherent characteristics are exactly the same!
Elder Chuyun hesitated to act for a moment, fearing he might accidentally injure his own troops. But when he looked to the other side, he saw that Elder Huang was also lost in thought.

"who are you?"

"I am you!"

Lin Shan didn't explain to the two of them. Taking advantage of the blessing of the luck card, he quickly held off Elder Chuyun and joined forces with Daoist Huangyue and Lord Jixuan to launch a counterattack!

Both were initially taken aback, but upon realizing they were allies, they didn't bother to investigate further and immediately manipulated their domains to counterattack.

With the combined efforts of three early-stage Void Realm cultivators, they were finally able to contend with a mid-stage Void Realm cultivator. At the same time, Lin Shan passed by and dropped five seventh-grade spirit crystals. The Annihilation Avatar caught them and immediately threw out the Yellow Turban Warrior. With the spirit stone driving it, this Void Realm puppet immediately helped him and Xing Shuzi gain a foothold!

The situation on the field suddenly became deadlocked. The power of various domains surged and collided. Accompanied by the struggle between supreme divine powers, transparent fragments could be vaguely seen scattering in all directions, invisible energy was escaping, and the scraps of each domain were collapsing.

Even Elder Izumo is no exception!
Why do cultivators in the Void Transformation stage rarely form enmities with each other?
The reason is that the cost of fighting is too high. After each major battle, the collision of domains will cause more or less damage, and repairs will have to be done at a cost afterward.

If you lack confidence in defeating your opponent and they manage to escape, the gains won't be proportional to the efforts, making the battle a loss!

However, Elder Izumo was well-prepared this time and determined to wipe out this group of people in one fell swoop, so he didn't care about the losses at all. As long as he could win, he could make up for everything!
Lin Shan grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. The three of them, all at the Void Transformation stage, were still no match for their opponent despite their combined strength across three major domains. As time went on, the balance of power gradually shifted, and the situation began to turn against them.

"This is bad! Izumo-sama is too strong. We are no match for him!"

Old Daoist Huangyue was starting to panic. He had only shown himself earlier because he believed in the evil of Jixuanjun. Now that he couldn't even defeat them in a three-on-one fight, he was having second thoughts and wondering if he should betray his teammates.

Ji Xuanjun was also feeling uneasy; anyone in his shoes would be anxious.

"Hahaha, is this all you've got?"

Elder Izumo slowly regained the initiative and took control of the battlefield. Although he didn't know who the newcomer was or why they shared the same domain as Elder Huang, none of that mattered! "If you have no other tricks up your sleeve, then prepare to die!"

Lin Shan had been secretly plotting against the jinx, waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack. Finally, the moment the opponent switched from defense to offense, he unleashed his ultimate technique.

Misfortune Siphon!

In an instant, the pillar of fortune above his head trembled violently. Before Elder Chuyun could see what was happening, he felt as if his body had been hollowed out, and his aura plummeted.

A crocodile turtle covered in scales roared proudly from the molten lava brewing above his head, then transformed into streaks of fire that traversed both domains and arrived directly above Lin Shan's head.

Swish~~~
The alligator snapping turtle luck card instantly materialized!
"Huh? What's going on?"

Elder Chuyun was confused about what was going on, but Elder Huang, who was knowledgeable in aura reading, immediately shouted out.

"Brother, be careful! That kid will drain your luck, but it's only for a short time. You'll recover soon, so just hold on!"

These words were like a reassurance, and Elder Izumo, who had been somewhat flustered, immediately calmed down and began to contract his domain to defend.

The opponent's arrogance suddenly diminished for no reason. Ji Xuanjun and Huang Yue Laodao keenly noticed this. Both of them were veterans of the Void Realm. At this moment, they did not hesitate to step forward and launch a frenzied attack!
With Lin Shan and the other two joining forces, the situation immediately reversed. The tables turned, and they broke through the blockade to surround the enemy's territory, intending to swallow it all up.

Elder Chuyun was experienced. Even though he had lost his luck at this moment, he only adopted a defensive posture. He solidified his domain by relying on density and layered his defenses to prevent them from breaking through.

"Don't hold back, get them in!"

The empty star bridge descended from above, suppressing the lava domain all at once. Elder Izumo remained motionless, the tortoise shell pattern on his back shimmering as he withstood the impact of the three of them.

Click-clack~~~
All four domains are collapsing rapidly, and the collisions between them continue.

The other two were heartbroken, wondering how much of their territory would be reduced to ruins after the battle.

The key is that we can't break through the opponent's turtle shell!

Lin Shan, however, didn't care at all. Since it wasn't his territory, he could just go all out and create whatever he wanted. He also planned to try his luck with his natal star.

The Star Sword Immortal, who was observing the battle from within, suddenly spoke up, urging Lin Shan to remain calm.

"Kid, ignore him. This old man's luck is like a tortoise's; his best skill is defense. Go and deal with Elder Huang first!"

Father, like son.

On the other side, the Yellow Turban Warriors had already consumed four Grade 7 spirit crystals in a short period of time, which was simply burning money!

The fifth spirit crystal has already been used up to the maximum extent, and it is being used to block the pressure from Elder Huang's domain at the front. The consumption is terrifying.
We can't hold them off anymore.

Xing Shuzi was panting heavily. His dilapidated domain was drafty, and his natal stars inside were all broken and tattered. At this moment, he was no different from a beggar.

The Nirvana Avatar was alright, as it was blessed by the Xuan Tian spiritual treasure, the Yin Yang Nirvana Bow, but the nascent domain was also teetering on the brink of collapse.

Lin Shan's first luck card was about to expire, and he still hadn't managed to defeat Elder Chuyun. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Huangsha is strong, but it also depends on who it's compared to.

Facing Elder Huang was like showing off one's skills before an expert, and going to find Elder Yun only resulted in being thoroughly humiliated.

I decided to switch targets decisively and activate the second Luck Card!
Ugh~~~
The Scaled Alligator Turtle raised its head and roared, instantly unleashing a field of lava.

Abandoning Ji Xuanjun and Huang Yue Laodao, he crashed straight into the adjacent Huangsha Domain. Elder Huang inside was caught off guard and had two of his Yuan Nian avatars destroyed on the spot!

"What? This is Brother Izumo's domain!"

He was instantly terrified, realizing the truth.

"You can extract our fortune and copy and use our Dharma forms?"

The alligator snapping turtle shook its head and wagged its tail, swimming through the lava as if it were in the ocean. With immense force, it crashed into the lava, and with a loud clang, a corner of the yellow sand domain was instantly destroyed!
The annihilation clone and the star pivot inside caught their breath and quickly launched a counterattack in support of him from within. However, their strength was too weak and their restraint was limited, so they were still stuck in a small area.

Elder Huang immediately disregarded the two men, leaving the Yellow Turban Warriors to wear them down, while he himself quickly focused on clashing with Lin Shan.

The competition between fields is so simple and straightforward; it's a head-on confrontation that reveals the true strength!
Rumble rumble rumble~~~
Both sides were going all out, engaging in a fierce and relentless battle.

Lin Shan wasn't bothered, since it was borrowed from the Luck Card anyway, but Elder Huang was heartbroken, yet he had no choice but to accept the challenge.

Judging from the results, Elder Chuyun not only has a higher realm, but his Dharma form and domain are indeed stronger than Elder Huang's!
After hundreds of continuous clashes, the southwest corner of the Yellow Sand Domain began to collapse on a large scale. The Lava Domain quickly squeezed into the occupied space, using it as a bridgehead to begin its infiltration and aggressive conquest!

"Oh no, I've been identified as the weak point?"

Elder Huang had never believed that he would be beaten so badly by Zhong Shenxiu, a stray dog. Only now, facing a crisis, did he realize the reality.

It's not that I can't beat him, it's that that kid can use his strength against me!

It was as if he was going head-to-head with Elder Izumo, and it was only natural that he would lose. But who would have thought that the gap between them would be so big?

"Brother Chuyun, save me!"

Xing Shuzi immediately realized, "It's our turn now?"
Without saying a word, he pulled out a stack of thunder talismans from his pocket. These were seventh-grade talismans that he had bought at a high price at the trade fair. The reason he hadn't used them was simply to save them for the end, in case the situation turned unfavorable, so he could concentrate his fire to break through the Yellow Sand Domain and escape.

Now that the situation has reversed, they don't care about escaping anymore; they just want to blow Elder Huang up first!
"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands! Thunderous Evil-Suppressing Talisman, Five Thunderbolts Strike the Head Talisman, Ten Thousand Thunderbolts Lock the Soul Talisman, Profound Thunder Breaking the Law Talisman!"

As he raised two fingers together and chanted incantations, talismans spontaneously combusted and turned to ashes, and streams of supreme divine power descended from the sky, Elder Huang's expression changed drastically!
He shuddered and, without thinking, quickly pulled out a stack of talismans, raised his finger, and began chanting a spell.

"You're not the only one with thunder talismans! Hurry, hurry, as the law commands! Thunderous Protection Talisman, Thunderous Swiftness Talisman, Thunder Shadow Clone Talisman!"

The world was filled with the brewing of various kinds of lightning and plasma, and silver snakes danced wildly everywhere, covering every corner of the yellow sand domain.

Lightning flashed incessantly, its changing light illuminating everyone's face.

It was already night, and their movements were hidden in the cloud valley. Originally, they had not yet spread outwards, but now a sliver of light gradually began to emerge.

Lin Shan was originally a Wind and Thunder elementalist, so he was naturally not afraid of any Thunder Dao supernatural powers. He continued to command the Lava Domain to advance fiercely, and casually waved his sleeve to throw the Thunder Otter in his Spirit Beast Ring out to absorb its energy.

Elder Chuyun over there heard Elder Huang's cry for help, and although he wanted to help, he was powerless to do so.

During the vacuum period when his luck was taken away, he was unable to control the conflict with Ji Xuanjun and Huangyue Laodao, lost the initiative on the battlefield, and watched as his allies were about to be captured by his own domain. He couldn't help but roar angrily at the two of them.

"My target is Zhong Shenxiu, it has nothing to do with you. Now step aside and I'll let bygones be bygones, don't force me to fight you to the death!"

The two looked at each other and burst into laughter at the same time.

"Haven't we already been locked in a life-or-death struggle? Let's kill your reinforcements first, and once those three fellow Daoists are free, let's see how you can withstand the five of us!"

Just moments ago they were wavering and thinking of escaping, but now they stood firmly in front of Elder Izumo, protecting him! (End of Chapter)
