Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 710 Ku Yi Ku Wukong

Xu Yunfan's eyes flashed with cold light. Taking advantage of the moment when the White-Haired True Monarch was slightly distracted by the fall of Tongxuan, he controlled Wukong's clone to make a fierce attack.

The Star Banner, revived through ritual, stirred up the remaining star power, and the 365 main stars on the banner lit up again. Hundreds of millions of purple-gold divine lightning bolts intertwined into a net, carrying the divine intent of the Divine Firmament that could destroy all laws, and bombarded the White-Haired True Lord.

The attributes of thunder are ever-changing. The Taiyi Pure Source Demon-Cleansing Thunder, the Zhou Tian Dou Shu Golden-Splitting Thunder, the Di Sha Abyss Divine Thunder... all kinds of thunder rotate and interact, completely locking the space around the White-Haired True Monarch.

"A mere trifle! I have been studying Thunder for many years."

The white-haired True Lord chuckled hoarsely, his withered hands forming hand seals and flying across the ground beneath his gray robe.

Its body suddenly became ethereal, turning into a wisp of gray-white mist that merged into the surging deathly aura of the sea of ​​bitterness.

The lightning net pierced through the mist, but it was as if it had struck a phantom, only evaporating a wave of blood into a void.

The gray mist re-condensed a hundred feet away, and the white-haired True Monarch's face paled slightly, but the wound on his shoulder blade, which had been pierced by the rain of swords, miraculously healed as if nothing had happened.

"Life and death cycle, yin and yang are reversed."

The White-Haired True Lord raised his head slightly: "Xu Yunfan, no matter how strong your lightning is, I might be helpless in other places, but in this Netherworld, it cannot break my magic."

Xu Yunfan's mind raced as he glanced at the information notification that popped up on the attribute panel.

'Your attacks seem to be much less effective against the White-Haired True Monarch's Nine Nether Reincarnation Technique.'

Having failed to achieve his goal with his first strike, Xu Yunfan decisively abandoned any further engagement with the White-Haired True Lord.

Although the sword spirit of Tongxuan Zhenjun has been destroyed, a wisp of immortal golden essence still carries his remnant soul into the direction of the underworld. Clearly, he is using the immortal golden essence to protect his true spirit and escape into reincarnation.

Killing a Tongxuan cultivator who had severed his cultivation and was left with only his soul was already a stroke of luck. At this moment, we should go straight for the real target. It would be especially unwise to entangle with this white-haired True Monarch for too long.

First, one must perceive the characteristics of the Taiyin Dragon Dao Fruit.

"go!"

Xu Yunfan controlled Wukong to transform into a streak of molten gold light, tearing through waves of blood and rushing straight towards the island of white bones.

On the gnarled tree atop the dragon's head, the clear light of the Taiyin Mingqiu Dao Fruit flowed. The dragon-shaped fruit with scales exuded the Dao charm of extreme Yin and coldness, yet it concealed a glimmer of life. It was the perfect foundation for harmonizing the two Thunderfire Dao Fruits, Shenxiao and Chiyang, which were isolated Yang.

"Xu Yunfan! You want to use me as a sacrifice?!"

Wukong's golden pupils trembled violently as he instantly realized what Xu Yunfan was trying to do. His stone body sped away under Xu Yunfan's strong control, but his soul struggled frantically.

Wukong's roar exploded in his mind.

"That dragon is at the Golden Core stage. Its Dao Fruit originates from the same source and is symbiotic with it. You want me to go and seize the fruit? That's no different from sending me to my death!"

Xu Yunfan's cold response pierced through the barriers of his suffering.

"You are the embodiment of my Cloud Pavilion, and your true spirit and essence are entirely connected to me. If you do not retreat now, when will you?"

Wukong roared in despair.

"I fought for you in the Tongxuan realm, and this is how I end up?! You promised me, and I will keep what I promised."

"Noisy."

Xu Yunfan's divine sense remained completely calm.

"If you attain the Dao Fruit, I will allow you to rebuild your Dao body. If you perish, it will only be to return to the Star Banner. Your true spirit will reside on the Star Banner, and as long as the Star Banner remains intact, you will be able to reunite sooner or later."

The dragon's blood-red eyes had already locked onto Wukong.

The Dao Fruit is its inherent essence, and more importantly, it is the foundation upon which it breaks through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. How could it allow others to covet it?

"Insects! How dare you steal the way!"

The dragon's roar shattered the sea of ​​blood, and the dragon's claws coiled around the purplish-black primordial thunder of the sea of ​​suffering, causing space to shatter like glass wherever it passed.

Even more terrifying, the clear light of the Dao Fruit rippled outwards, and the extremely cold and yin energy froze the star power, causing Wukong's escape speed to decrease by a third.

This fruit is transformed from the ultimate Yin source of the Sea of ​​Bitterness, naturally suppressing all external magical forces.

Seeing Xu Yunfan's reckless behavior, the White-Haired True Lord's face turned ashen.

He had been plotting for years, only to seize Xu Yunfan's Divine Firmament Dao Fruit to prolong his life. If the dragon were to devour this body containing Xu Yunfan, and use its accompanying Dao Fruit as a catalyst, it would very likely transform into a Bitter Sea Fiend Spirit in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

Then all the plans fell through.

He truly couldn't believe that Xu Yunfan would do something that benefited others.

Is it possible that they would rather give it to this evil dragon than give it to themselves?
"Don't even think about it!" He shrieked and lunged forward, shooting out thousands of chains of vengeful spirits from his sleeve. The reincarnation runes at the ends of the chains flickered, and they actually reached out first and wrapped around Wukong's ankle, intending to pull him away from the range of the dragon claws.

The three opposing forces instantly intertwined their deadly intentions.

Xu Yunfan manipulates Wukong to detonate the final trump card.

The main star of the Star Banner exploded one after another, and the remaining star power poured into the right fist of the stone embryo.

Using the body of a primordial holy spirit, Xu Yunfan infused it with vast magical power, causing the magical power behind Wukong to surge and condense like smoke. His fist shone with molten gold light and smashed fiercely towards the point where the chains and dragon claws were sandwiched.

"boom!!!"

The sea of ​​bitterness erupted with blood-red waves, towering thousands of feet high; the chains of vengeful spirits snapped inch by inch; and the claws and scales of the dragon flew everywhere.

But the star power was eventually exhausted, and the magic power was also depleted by this punch. Wukong's right arm stone embryo exploded.

Taking advantage of the situation, the White-Haired True Lord pressed closer, his withered palm like a knife piercing straight into Wukong's heart, his expression ferocious.

"Your Dao Fruit is mine!"

On the brink of life and death, Xu Yunfan continuously deduced the right-hand Dharma image of the character "临" (lín, meaning to practice writing) atop Shenxiao Mountain.

In the state of "Approaching," he decisively abandoned Wukong, connected his divine sense to the core of the Star Banner, and forcibly reclaimed it using the strong control characteristics of the attribute panel.

"Xu Yunfan! You'll get what's coming to you..."

Before Wukong could finish cursing, the White-Haired True Lord's palm strike pierced through his chest.

The gray-white reincarnation runes spread along the wound, instantly eroding the stone embryo's body.

In the same instant, the giant mouth of the dragon lunged forward, and the thunder from the source of the Bitter Sea swallowed up Wukong's remaining body.

"puff!"

The clone disintegrated, and a wisp of true spirit escaped into the star banner.

The White-Haired True Lord only shattered the scattered stone fragments, while the Star Banner transformed into a stream of light, tearing open the barrier of the Bitter Sea and disappearing without a trace.

"The Cloud Book Avatar Technique?!"

The white-haired True Lord stood there stunned, his face turning from green to black.

"What a Xu Yunfan! He has actually cultivated the 'Eight Scenes of Xuandu: Refining Heaven and Creating Clouds' to such an extent that it is indistinguishable from the real thing!"

He painstakingly set up a trap, even at the cost of revealing his true form, only to find that he had only hunted down a clone.

Xu Yunfan's true form has always remained hidden in Shenxiao Mountain. Now that he has stirred up trouble, it will be extremely difficult for him to make any further plans.

At this thought, the White-Haired True Lord felt an indescribable frustration in his chest and only wanted to kill Xu Yunfan's entire family to vent his anger.

"Roar!"

The dragon, enraged, approached, its blood-red eyes locking onto the last remaining intruder.

The white-haired True Lord looked at the Dragon Head Dao Fruit, his face twisted like a demon.

His lifespan is coming to an end. If he does not obtain this fruit to harmonize Yin and Yang, he can only be reincarnated as an immortal golden being.

But the monstrous calamity that Xu Yunfan faced when he attained enlightenment is still vivid in our minds.

The Wancheng Sword Sect's siege, the Bodhi Zen Pure Land's ambush, the Yuanshi Sect's internal strife...

Would this world ever give a reincarnated True Monarch the chance to return to the path of cultivation?

"This result is my last gamble!"

The white-haired True Lord roared, his gray robe igniting with ghostly blue soul flames as he lunged at the dragon.

Above the Bitter Sea, the roar of the deadly battle between the remaining man and the dragon echoed, and waves of blood surged like the prelude to the apocalypse.
-
The Starry Banner returned through the air, its surface covered with cracks, and disappeared into Xu Yunfan's palm.

He gazed toward the sea of ​​suffering, the light in his eyes gradually fading.

"Tongxuan has fallen, his white hair is exposed, and Qiulong is seriously injured... This trip was worthwhile."

However, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, as this mission had been unsuccessful from the start, with the loss of one of his clones immediately upon arrival.
