Heaven-Flipping Seal

What would it feel like to be stared at by an ancient demon whose primordial spirit has lived for millions of years?

Zhou Hao has experienced it today.

An invisible pressure seemed to freeze the surrounding world.

Even though he knew perfectly well that the terrifying old demon in front of him wouldn't attack him.

After all, once he and Ao Xiaobao made a spirit beast contract, he could use the spirit beast talisman to make the spirit beast's soul disappear with just a thought.

However, the terrifying suppression emanating from his soul still made Zhou Hao feel the threat of death.

It was a terrifying sense of threat from which there was absolutely no power to resist.

"His divine soul is actually this powerful?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Ao Xuan's eyes.

It should be noted that with its millions of years of cultivation and its divine beast form, it is by no means inferior to the primordial spirit realm among the ancient gods and demons.

Even when facing Earth Immortal of the Void Return among human cultivators, aside from the top-tier Earth Immortal, ordinary Earth Immortal would only be slaughtered in its presence.

It deliberately suppressed the aura emanating from Zhou Hao, yet this little human creature, who had lived for less than twenty years, was able to withstand it without losing his composure.

"The human race is truly terrifying," Ao Xuan thought to himself.

These mythical beasts are naturally powerful and have long lifespans. Although they are not favored by heaven and earth like true gods and demons, they are not even subject to the three calamities and nine tribulations.

However, each calamity only occurs once every thousand or even ten thousand years.

What about the humans?

A human can become an immortal in just a few hundred years!

Hundreds of years? What a short time! Not even as long as it takes for it to occasionally take a nap.

Moreover, the human race's terrifying reproductive capacity, powerful comprehension, and rapid progress have made them the true overlords of all races on this land, and even throughout the entire Three Realms!

Even true gods and demons must retreat.

Even the most powerful divine beasts that become celestial immortals, if they don't want to be slaughtered for treasure-making, can only become the spirit beasts of powerful human cultivators.

Having lived for millions of years, Ao Xuan knew how terrifying humans were, which is why it stopped Ao Xiong from killing several people earlier.

If Zhou Hao and the Slovenly True Person were to die at the hands of a Myriad Phenomena Great Demon of the same realm as their own, it would be because these two human prodigies were not strong enough, and they could not be blamed.

But if it were the two of them, both at the Nascent Soul stage, who were to make a move, the nature of the situation would be completely different.

Putting aside the potential attention from the owner of this Immortal Mansion, who knows how powerful the backgrounds of these two human prodigies are?

Kill the small ones, and the big ones come. Kill the big ones, and a whole bunch of big ones come... There are just too many powerful humans.

"Zhou Hao, right?" Ao Xuan lowered his aura and smiled, "I'll entrust Little Treasure to you from now on."

Zhou Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Without the suppression of his divine soul, Ao Xuan, who had transformed into human form, was just like the father of an ordinary mortal.

"Don't worry, senior," Zhou Hao said solemnly.

"Although I have made a spirit beast contract with Little Treasure, if one day it doesn't want to follow me anymore, just tell me and I will set it free. And even if it encounters danger, I will not force it to go to its death."

Whether in his past life or this one, Zhou Hao lived in modern society before he transmigrated, and he wouldn't have done something like bullying and enslaving other living beings.

He treats spirit beasts like Ao Xiaobao, whose intelligence is no less than that of humans, just like his own brothers and sisters.

Sensing the sincerity in Zhou Hao's words, Ao Xuan smiled, and his gaze towards him became even gentler, as if he were looking at a close junior.

"Little Treasure is still young, has always been by my side, has never left the clan's territory, and has just entered the Purple Mansion. If you don't have anything urgent, stay a few more days, and I'll give it some more instruction."

A mother worries when her child travels a thousand miles. Although Ao Xuan and the others are demons, their intelligence is no less than that of humans, so they naturally have the same worries.

"Please continue your instruction, senior. I'm not in a hurry," Zhou Hao said with a smile. "I'm also preparing to deal with that Primordial Spirit Daoist who's been chasing us."

"That hunchback?" A cold glint flashed in Ao Xuan's eyes. "I'll go and kill him in a bit."

It doesn't want to provoke humans easily, but it's not afraid of trouble either.

The Divine Camel Daoist wanted to kill Zhou Hao, and his young Little Treasure, Xiao Bao, was Zhou Hao's spirit beast.

Doesn't that mean the Divine Camel Daoist is going to deal with his own young son?

It's not fair to say that a Primordial Spirit Daoist Qi Refining Path is bullying his own young son.

Upon hearing that Ao Xuan was about to make a move, Zhou Hao immediately smiled.

"Senior, you'll be there to cover for us then."

"My companions and I have recently gained an opportunity to improve our strength, and we were just looking to use him as a practice target. If we are unable to defeat him, we will then trouble you, senior, to take action."

If he were alone, his Qi Refining would only be at the initial stage of the Purple Mansion, and his God-Devil Body Refining Refinement would only be at the Purple Mansion Perfection realm. Even with the help of the Blue Flower Mist and several supernatural secret techniques, he could at most be comparable to the Perfection of Myriad Phenomena Manifestations realm, barely able to compete with a Daoist who had just entered the Nascent Soul realm.

Adding the Slovenly True Person to the mix, even if they weren't at their peak in the original work, would give them the confidence to deal with an opponent like the Divine Camel Daoist, whose primordial spirit was at its most perfect, once they had both mastered the Xuanwu Great Divine Ability.

Moreover, there are now terrifying ancient demons with primordial spirits like the Whirling Turtle Clan and Ao Xuan behind them.

In Zhou Hao's mind, the Divine Camel Daoist was already dead!

Inside a cave on a deserted island.

The Divine Camel Daoist sat cross-legged on the ground, surrounded by a red aura.

Much later.

"Phew~~~"

As he exhaled a breath of stale air, the red light inside the cave dissipated, and the Divine Camel Daoist opened his eyes.

His complexion was rosy, and the injuries he had sustained in the Turtle-Snake Immortal Mansion had fully healed.

"Still inside that Immortal Mansion?"

As usual, the Divine Camel Daoist sensed Zhou Hao's location and, seeing that he was still inside the Immortal Mansion and had not yet come out, his face darkened.

He absolutely refused to venture into that Immortal Mansion again.

If it weren't for the two ancient demons of the Whirling Turtle Clan not intervening last time, he, the Divine Camel Daoist had roamed for over a thousand years, would have almost died a miserable death at the hands of a group of Myriad Phenomena -form demons.

"Let's just wait and see!"

The Divine Camel Daoist said resentfully.

"Normally, a single period of seclusion can take decades or even centuries. I don't believe you can hide in your Immortal Mansion for your entire lives."

In fact, the Divine Camel Daoist has been struggling with this issue for the past few days.

He wanted to return to the main altar to request reinforcements, but he was also afraid that Zhou Hao and his companion would take the opportunity to escape after he left.

The properties of the Two Feelings Gu mean that he isn't the only one who can sense Zhou Hao's location.

His own location information could not escape Zhou Hao's perception.

Unable to return for reinforcements, and too afraid to venture into the Immortal Mansion.

This dilemma greatly troubled the Divine Camel Daoist.

"If all else fails, I'll just take any powerful Myriad Phenomena beast as my spirit beast and have it return to the main altar to deliver the message for me," the Divine Camel Daoist pondered.

This sea area, spanning tens of thousands of miles, is the territory of the Whirling Turtle Clan. Apart from the Whirling Turtle Great Demon, there are no other great demons. Occasionally, there are a few Purple Mansion Demon Beasts, but most of them are insignificant and do not catch the eye of the Divine Camel Daoist.

He was making plans.

Even if he is hundreds of thousands of miles away, as long as he senses that Zhou Hao has left the Immortal Mansion, he will rush here immediately.

Even if they escape, I can catch up with them in half an hour at most.

Thinking of this, the Divine Camel Daoist prepared to leave the deserted island and go to the nearby sea to find a powerful demon skilled in flight to subdue.

"Hmm? They've left the Immortal Mansion?" The Divine Camel Daoist's expression suddenly shifted.

In his perception, Zhou Hao was actually heading in his direction.

"Does he have something to rely on?"

The Divine Camel Daoist frowned, clearly surprised and uncertain by Zhou Hao's unusual behavior.

"Let's observe first. If things don't look good, leave immediately."

Wow~~~

Ripples spread through the cave, and the figure of the Divine Camel Daoist vanished into thin air.

Inside the Golden-Scaled Boat.

Zhou Hao and the Slovenly True Person stood on the deck, gazing at the desolate island at the far end of their line of sight.

"The Divine Camel Daoist has likely mastered the Dao of Blazing Fire. Be careful of his spatial teleportation during the battle," the Slovenly True Person warned Zhou Hao, his eyes gleaming with fighting spirit.

Zhou Hao nodded and smiled, "If he were skilled in close combat, his combat power would naturally increase greatly after mastering Void Teleportation. But since he's a Qi Refining Path Primordial Spirit Daoist, Void Teleportation is only useful for escaping, not for anything else."

Void teleportation is a technique belonging to the ' Heaven and Earth Great Dao ', also known as the 'Great Dao of Space', and is considered the most fundamental of this great Dao.

It is extremely difficult for a normal cultivator to comprehend 'void teleportation', after all, it is the gateway to a great path.

The vast majority of Myriad Phenomena True Person specifically purchase a ' Minor Teleportation Dao Talisman ' for protection.

However, most ordinary Loose Immortal Earth Immortal can perform void teleportation.

Among the Primordial Spirit Daoist, some powerful individuals who have mastered a complete Dao can also perform void teleportation.

Because as long as one masters a complete Dao, the power of the Dao will descend, and one can control a region of heaven and earth.

When one controls a region of heaven and earth, cultivators will be able to clearly perceive the ' Heaven and Earth Great Dao '.

As one's perception of space becomes clearer, over time, one will naturally come to understand spatial teleportation.

Therefore, regardless of their cultivation level, as long as a cultivator can master a complete Dao, no matter what kind of Dao it is, they can almost always comprehend 'void teleportation', only the time it takes to do so varies.

However, teleportation is only the most basic and profound mystery of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. One can travel through the void because one has complete control over oneself. But it would be difficult to make a magical artifact travel through the void as well.

It could be a special magical artifact, a secret technique containing the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, or the Heaven and Earth Great Dao has reached the realm of ' Great Dao Domain '.

The secret technique ' Heaven Escape Needle Art ' that Zhou Hao obtained is derived from Patriarch Lü's ' Heaven Escape Sword Art ', which refers to the secret technique for guiding one to comprehend the Heaven and Earth Great Dao.

He has only grasped the first move, "Edge Unveiled," and is still within the mysteries of the Dao of the Gale.

If one comprehends the second move, ' The Needle Edge Emerges,' it means one has grasped a trace of the profound mystery of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. Combined with the secret techniques of needle manipulation, it allows one to move flying needles through the void, making it extremely powerful.

Previously, inside the Immortal Mansion, the Divine Camel Daoist had already exerted all his strength to deal with the Daoist army formations of the Myriad Phenomena Great Demons of the Whirling Turtle Clan. With Ao Xuan's strength and insight, he naturally saw through all of his secrets and had informed the two of them in advance.

Although the Divine Camel Daoist might have some trump cards up his sleeve, this place is only ten thousand miles away from the Immortal Mansion. If there is any real danger, Ao Xuan can teleport here in an instant.

The distance of a teleportation through the void depends on the strength of one's soul and the range of one's divine sense. Ao Xuan's accumulation over millions of years has given him a divine sense comparable to that of a top-tier Earth Immortal.

As for the Divine Camel Daoist, according to Ao Xuan, he was only about 600 li away, which was not much faster than the Primordial Spirit Daoist's full-speed flight.

Therefore, when they were being chased earlier, the Divine Camel Daoist did not use teleportation.

The Golden-Scaled Boat moved with incredible speed, arriving more than 600 miles away from the deserted island in the blink of an eye.

Then, Zhou Hao sensed a vast surge of divine consciousness approaching.

After the divine sense scanned the Golden-Scaled Boat inside and out, the voice of the Divine Camel Daoist immediately rang out inside the Golden-Scaled Boat.

"I thought you were all destined to hide in that Immortal Mansion for your entire lives. What? You've come to your deaths after seeing the light of day?"

"Haha, it's not certain who will die today!"

Although Zhou Hao's divine sense was inferior to that of his opponent and he had not yet located the Divine Camel Daoist, he still managed to control the Golden-Scaled Boat to fly towards the deserted island, guided by the sensations of the Two Feelings Gu.

"Overestimating yourselves." The Divine Camel Daoist's voice was cold and sharp as he roared, "I'll show you that even the strongest at the Myriad Phenomena Manifestations Myriad Phenomena. The difference of one major realm is not so easily erased."

"Then come and try," the Slovenly True Person sneered. "Let's see just how big the gap is between the two of us and you, a great master at the Nascent Soul stage!"

Boom!

A massive sword-light dragon, nearly a thousand feet long and surrounded by three golden flames, flew up from the deserted island and roared towards the Golden-Scaled Boat.

"You've learned your lesson, haven't you? You used the Three Swords Combined move right from the start." Zhou Hao laughed heartily. "San Pang, I'll leave this dragon to you. I'll deal with that hunchback."

This was something the two of them had discussed beforehand.

"Alright." The Slovenly True Person transformed into a streak of light and rushed out of the Golden-Scaled Boat to meet the flying sword-light dragon.

Meanwhile, Zhou Hao maneuvered the Golden-Scaled Boat, drawing an arc in the air to bypass the sword-light dragon and head straight for the Divine Camel Daoist standing on the highest peak of the deserted island.

"Hunchback! You wanted a fight to the death? Here I come!"

The Golden-Scaled Boat flashed and disappeared into the air.

Zhou Hao, on the other hand, Wind Riding and flew towards a mountain peak not far away.

And he was in the air—

"Hold head high!"

A gigantic phantom of Turtle-Snake appeared behind Zhou Hao, and tortoise shell patterns immediately appeared on his skin, while his eyes changed to resemble snake eyes.

After unleashing the Xuanwu Great Divine Ability, Zhou Hao swayed and simultaneously unleashed the Law of Heaven and Earth Great Divine Power, instantly transforming into a ten-zhang-tall giant.

An overwhelming aura emanated from Zhou Hao, enveloping the desolate island below.

Standing atop the desolate island, the Divine Camel Daoist was suddenly filled with fear under this overwhelming power and wanted to flee immediately.

"In just a few days, do you think you can turn the world upside down?" The Divine Camel Daoist suppressed his panic, and a feather fan appeared out of thin air in his hand. He then swung the fan at Zhou Hao, who was flying through the air.

Wow~~~

A golden flame transformed into a Fire Dragon in the air, its power no less than the sword light dragon he had previously unleashed. Then, under the almost frenzied control of the Divine Camel Daoist's divine sense, it rushed towards Zhou Hao.

"Playing with fire?" Zhou Hao suddenly swung his arm, fist raised high, "Break!"

Boom!

Zhou Hao's self-created fist technique, "Fantian Seal," was finally used after he learned two great supernatural powers, when facing the Fire Dragon Secret Technique of the Divine Camel Daoist.

The Fire Dragon, formed from the primordial fire nurtured by the Divine Camel Daoist for hundreds of years and amplified by the magic weapon Feather Fan, was torn apart from head to toe when it collided with Zhou Hao's Fantian Seal.

The shattered Fire Dragon body transformed back into primordial fire, attempting to engulf Zhou Hao, but was swiftly strangled and annihilated by the enormous Turtle-Snake phantom behind him.

After Zhou Hao shattered the entire Fire Dragon, the divine power within his body swirled and vibrated once more. His fist, wielding the Fantian Seal, grew even stronger, slamming down directly towards the Divine Camel Daoist on the mountain peak.

"What?" the Divine Camel Daoist exclaimed in surprise.

As a cultivator who Qi Refining Path, how could he dare to take the punch from Zhou Hao, which contained terrifying power?

He immediately teleported through the void, disappearing more than ten miles away in an instant.

Zhou Hao unleashed a powerful punch, slamming it heavily onto the mountain peak where the Divine Camel Daoist had previously fought.

"Rumble~~~"

The earth shook violently, and rocks collapsed.

The entire deserted island was cracked open from the base of the mountain outwards in countless fissures.

The immense force sent shockwaves rippled outwards into the sea surrounding the deserted island.

Wow~~~

A wave dozens of feet high was immediately surged up and rushed towards the sea around the deserted island.

Standing on the ruins of the mountain, Zhou Hao felt an immense sense of exhilaration.

No matter what magic or secret techniques you use, I'll unleash my "Fantian Seal" with a single punch!

This is the feeling one should experience after becoming powerful through God-Devil Body Refining!

Meanwhile, the Divine Camel Daoist in the distance was completely stunned by the power of Zhou Hao's punch.

"How can he be so strong!?"

"Even if he cultivates the Chiming Nine Heavens Map and has reached the twelfth level of Perfect Myriad Phenomena, he shouldn't be this strong!!"

"He and that other scruffy kid weren't this strong just a few days ago! Could it be that they gained supernatural powers in the Immortal Mansion?"

"Get out of here!"

The Divine Camel Daoist's mind raced, and without even leaving a harsh word, he tried to escape.

To have survived for over a thousand years in the Desolate Era world, one must have become an extraordinary being.

Upon realizing that the situation was hopeless, his primary concern was naturally self-preservation.

But things are different now. If the Divine Camel Daoist wants to leave, he'll have to ask Zhou Hao and the others if they're willing...

I'll continue tonight, around midnight, it's hard to say, but I'll definitely post another chapter. I'll write until whatever time I want.
