Immortal Sword Master

Chapter 413: Chapter 409: The Terror of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Skill, the Great Mixed Cave Technique

In the Underground Palace Realm, a streak of light shot past like lightning.

By pushing his Heaven-Devouring Sparrow Dharma Body to its absolute limit, Ning Jiang’s speed had increased to a terrifying degree. But as his figure flashed by, his face looked somewhat pale.

To escape the red-robed elder’s deadly pursuit, he had neutralized the man’s attacks several times, sustaining minor injuries with each exchange.

’The gap in our Realms is truly difficult to overcome.’

Ning Jiang mused to himself as his figure flashed by.

’I’ve killed many in the Earth Martial Realm before, but I was borrowing Array Power back then. My own strength is not yet at that level.’

’The difference between God-Seizing Realm Cultivation and the Earth Martial Realm is just too vast.’

’If you compare the Earth Martial Realm to a boulder, then the God-Seizing Realm is an egg that shatters on contact.’

"If I could just step into the Immortal Realm, or if my Nine Tribulations Celestial Thunder Body reached Perfection, then killing an Earth Martial Realm expert would be child’s play. I need to find a chance to break through as soon as possible," Ning Jiang said softly.

At that moment, his figure landed in a dense forest surrounded by lush, ancient trees.

’I should have lost him, right?’

A full tea’s time passed with no disturbance.

However, before Ning Jiang could even breathe a sigh of relief, a wave of Domain Power came crashing down.

"You can’t escape from me!"

As the icy voice fell, Ning Jiang abruptly looked up. His pupils shrank, his gaze locking onto the peak of a nearby mountain. There, the red-robed elder stood with his hands behind his back, a mocking glint in his eyes as he stared down at Ning Jiang.

’How did he find me?’

Ning Jiang keenly sensed that something was wrong.

’Finding my precise location in a dense forest like this should be like finding a needle in a haystack. No matter how capable the red-robed elder is, he shouldn’t have been able to find me so easily.’

’It’s important to remember that Spiritual Power is severely restricted in this Underground Palace Realm, so searching with Divine Sense can basically be ruled out.’

’He must have some way of tracking me. But it’s impossible that he left a tracking mark on my body... It must be something else...’

A glint flashed in Ning Jiang’s eyes. A moment later, with a flick of his wrist, a Storage Ring appeared in his hand.

It was Young Master Yanluo’s Storage Ring.

’As I thought.’

After a careful inspection, Ning Jiang’s eyes narrowed. Inside the Storage Ring, there was an extremely faint imprint.

"It seems you’ve found it," the red-robed elder said, his eyes filled with killing intent. "Go on, run. Why have you stopped? Have you realized there’s no escape and decided to give up?"

"Have you heard of the principle of heavenly timing and earthly advantage?"

Facing the red-robed elder’s aggressive posture, Ning Jiang remained perfectly calm and looked up at the sky.

At some point, dark clouds had begun to roil across the sky.

Although the Underground Palace Realm was located deep underground, the presence of the Celestial Pill allowed it to have all sorts of weather phenomena.

Such was the power of a Celestial Martial Realm King. A King who had mastered the Power of Heaven and Earth Laws could leave behind a Celestial Pill after death, one capable of manifesting all kinds of natural changes.

"Oh? To hear you talk, it sounds like you have some trick up your sleeve to turn this around?"

The red-robed elder’s face was full of disdain; he paid Ning Jiang’s words no mind.

"Enough. I’m done wasting words with you. Die."

He took a step forward, commanding his vast Domain Power as he charged toward Ning Jiang.

"A mere Earth Martial Realm expert... what can you possibly do to me? I’ve killed more than enough Earth Martial Realm cultivators to fill this entire Underground Palace Realm."

A sharp glint erupted in Ning Jiang’s eyes. "Then I’ll let you witness the true power of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Skill."

"Great Mixed Cave Technique!"

As Ning Jiang’s voice fell, a black vortex appeared behind him. It was initially only the size of a fist, but in the blink of an eye, it expanded to be ten feet wide.

RUMBLE!

The Spiritual Qi that permeated the world trembled violently.

An immeasurably vast Devouring Power erupted from the black vortex. Before the red-robed elder’s disbelieving eyes, countless Thunderbolts fell from the dark clouds in the sky, only to be absorbed into the black hole.

The terrifying power of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Skill was revealed to the world for the first time!

The most terrifying aspect of this Supreme Celestial Skill was not its cultivation speed, which was dozens of times faster than ordinary Cultivation Techniques, but its heaven-swallowing, earth-devouring Devouring Power. It could devour any and all forms of power.

In the past, Ning Jiang had never revealed this move, the Great Mixed Cave Technique.

Because once a Magic Formula like this was exposed, it would invite great disaster. Even Celestial Martial Realm Kings would be tempted by a Cultivation Technique that could devour all things.

But now, in the Underground Palace Realm, with no one else to see, Ning Jiang had no need for such concerns.

Endless Thunderbolts were drawn into the black hole, transforming into a pure power that fed back into Ning Jiang.

Gradually, a Thunder Dharma Body reappeared around Ning Jiang.

This Thunder Dharma Body was vastly different from the one before. The previous Thunder Dharma Body had only been a hundred feet tall, but now it expanded explosively—from a hundred feet to two hundred, three hundred, four hundred, finally stopping when it reached a thousand feet.

The thousand-foot-tall Thunder Dharma Body stood in the air like a primordial giant, an overwhelming sight to behold.

This was the combination of two Cultivation Techniques, the Heaven-Devouring Demon Skill and the Nine Tribulations Celestial Thunder Body. It took the devoured Power of Heaven and Earth Thunder and fused it into the Thunder Dharma Body—such was the domineering nature of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Skill.

"What is this magic?"

The red-robed elder stared at the colossal Thunder Dharma Body, his pupils contracting violently. For the first time, he felt threatened.

"To die by the Heaven-Devouring Demon Skill is your honor."

Ning Jiang’s voice was cold. As he spoke, the gigantic Thunder Dharma Body reached out its hand, grabbing toward the red-robed elder.

"Break!"

The red-robed elder roared and unleashed a full-power strike. His Fist Force drew upon the vast Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, forming a torrent that blasted forward.

But the current Thunder Dharma Body was more than ten times stronger than before.

The red-robed elder’s Fist Force was instantly and effortlessly destroyed. The Thunder Dharma Body’s palm closed like the grasp of a Divine Spirit, crushing everything in its path.

"Break open!"

The red-robed elder roared as the giant hand closed around his body. He felt immense pressure all over, his bones creaking and groaning. He used all his might, unleashing his Domain Power to resist the grip.

CRACK. CRACK.

However, after resisting for only a few breaths, his Domain Power began to make shattering sounds, cracking like an overburdened eggshell.

"No!"

That was the red-robed elder’s final cry. In the next instant, the hand clenched completely, letting out a dull, wet SQUELCH.

When the hand opened again, the red-robed elder had been reduced to a pile of bloody pulp.

"Huuu..."

Ning Jiang let out a long sigh of relief. A wave of weakness washed over him, and a helpless expression crossed his face. "This Great Mixed Cave Technique... I really shouldn’t use it unless I absolutely have to. The drain on my body is just too terrifying."

At this moment, all the Spiritual Qi in Ning Jiang’s three Dantian was completely depleted.

If another Earth Martial Realm expert were to appear now, his chances of survival would be slim.

As the battle here came to a close, deep within the Yan Tribe, an earth-shattering war was also gradually reaching its end.
