The Old Fox's Demise, the Laws of the Immortal Realm
The atmosphere at the reception platform was somber.
Under the relentless pressure of the three veteran Human Immortal, the seemingly timid ascendant elder's eyes flickered, and he retreated continuously, attempting to hide behind the other ascendants.
"Hmph! You old fool, trying to shift the blame?"
The Human Immortal at the head of the group saw through his thoughts at a glance, a cruel mockery flashing in his eyes.
"I'll start by targeting you!"
"Do it!"
Although the three of them were only at the Late-Stage Human Immortal cultivation, they had been engaged in murder and robbery on the edge of this Desolate Ancient Immortal Domain for many years, and their cooperation was extremely tacit.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Three palm prints, filled with corrosive and sinister energy, struck the old man simultaneously from three different tricky angles!
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, a glint of light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the old man who had been looking terrified!
"Do you really think I'm made of clay?!"
He suddenly straightened his back, and his aura changed instantly!
"Buzz--!"
A surge of immortal energy, though not particularly powerful, was extremely resilient and erupted from his body!
[Low-grade Immortal Technique: Withered Wood Art]!
He formed a hand seal, and several withered vines appeared out of thin air in front of him. Although they looked withered, they were extremely tough and managed to block all three palm prints!
"What?!"
The three Human Immortal were slightly startled.
"It's actually... a celestial technique at the Minor Accomplishment Completion stage?!"
In the Immortal Realm, cultivation techniques are incredibly precious. Even the lowest-grade immortal techniques are extremely rare and difficult for independent cultivators to come across. This old man was able to use an immortal technique at the Minor Accomplishment completion stage immediately after ascending, which clearly indicates that he had encountered something extraordinary while in the Lower Realm!
"That's interesting."
The Human Immortal at the head licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with even greater greed.
"Looks like this old man has quite a few good items on him!"
"Stop playing around! Let's finish this quickly! Otherwise, we'll attract other players!"
The three exchanged a glance, and decided to hold nothing back!
"Boom--!"
Three waves of low-grade immortal techniques at the Major Accomplishment Perfection stage erupted simultaneously!
"Poison Baleful Palm!"
"Yin Wind Claw!"
"Bone-Shattering Fist!"
This time, its power was several times greater than before!
The ascended elder's expression changed drastically! Although he had some trump cards, he was only a newly ascended Human Immortal after all; how could he withstand the full-force attack of three veteran Human Immortal?
"Damn it! You forced me to this!"
He gritted his teeth and suddenly pulled out a talisman that emitted a faint yellow light from his pocket!
[Low-grade Immortal Talisman - Vajra Protection Talisman]!
"Rise!"
A golden light shield instantly rose up, protecting him firmly within it!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The three attacks slammed into the light shield, but only caused a ripple; they couldn't break through the defense at all!
"A magic talisman?!"
The three Human Immortal not only did not back down, but became even more excited!
"Hahaha! We've struck it rich! This time it's really big!"
"This old bastard not only possesses immortal techniques, but also immortal talismans! He's definitely a fat sheep!"
"Stop hiding your weapons, everyone show your strength!"
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The three of them simultaneously patted their storage bags, and three weapons gleaming with a cold light appeared in their hands!
A demon-head saber! A pair of water-splitting spikes! A Wolf Fang!
They are all... low-grade immortal artifacts!
Although it was just a very ordinary, standard item, it still unleashed a terrifying sharpness under the impetus of immortal power!
"Break it for me...!"
The three roared in unison, their immortal artifacts slamming into the golden light barrier with a piercing shriek that tore through the air!
"Snap--!"
In just a moment, the seemingly indestructible light shield was covered with cracks!
The ascension-level elder's face was ashen, his eyes filled with despair!
He knew that this time... he had truly failed!
Just as this fierce battle had captured everyone's attention...
The young man in brocade robes, however, watched with his eyes darting around.
Seizing the opportunity, while everyone was distracted, he ducked low and used a strange escape technique, transforming into a blur as he fled madly into the distant wilderness!
"Trying to run?"
One of the Human Immortal caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, sneered, and was about to give chase.
"Ignore that good-for-nothing!" the Old One shouted. "Take care of this fat sheep first!"
In the eyes of the Human Immortal, the young master's escape was no big deal. But the old man before him was the real big fish!
"Boom--!"
Another loud bang!
The golden light shield finally gave way and shattered with a crash!
"Ah--!"
The ascended elder let out a piercing scream!
Three low-grade immortal artifacts pierced through his body almost simultaneously!
His physical body instantly disintegrated, turning into a rain of blood!
Amidst the rain of blood, a crystal-clear skeleton, radiating a faint jade-like luster, remained perfectly preserved!
"This... this is..."
The three Human Immortal looked at the skeleton, and their breathing instantly became rapid!
"Extreme... Supreme-Grade Immortal Bone?!"
"My God! This old man... he actually condensed Supreme-Grade Immortal Bone in the Lower Realm?!"
This is simply... a windfall!
An unprecedented gleam of greed erupted in the eyes of the three!
Dongfang Yueming, who had been standing still and observing coldly, saw this scene and a... amused smile appeared on his lips.
[Supreme-Grade Immortal Bone?]
[That's interesting.]
At this moment, the young master in brocade robes, who had already escaped some distance, looked back at the horrific scene and felt a wave of fear. At the same time, he couldn't help but glance at Dongfang Yueming, who was still standing there dumbfounded, with a gloating look.
That idiot... doesn't he even know to run?
[Now he's really... in trouble!]
