The moment he finished speaking.
The gazes of the other Immortals fell upon him simultaneously.
They spoke at almost the same time.
"Surrender now, and we will spare your life!"
In that instant.
The world seemed to freeze. The ripples on the lake stilled, and falling leaves hung suspended in mid-air.
The Immortals’ gazes combined into a great mountain, bearing down with an irresistible pressure that could crush anything in its path.
However, Hu Qi stood his ground, seemingly unfazed.
On his forehead.
A dark gold cloud-like marking flashed brightly.
The next second.
Hu Qi let out a light laugh.
"A pack of puppets controlled by fate dares to pass judgment on me?"
From Hu Qi’s perspective, the Spirituality of these so-called Immortals was utterly clouded.
The threads of fate above each of their heads were thick and solid, deeply embedded within their bodies.
Compared to mortals or Cultivators, they were controlled more deeply by fate.
These Immortals were nothing more than a group of puppets manipulated at will by fate.
"Forget it. I’ll help you find release!"
As he spoke.
Hu Qi’s knees bent slightly.
Invisible shockwaves rippled outward across the lake’s surface from beneath his feet.
BOOM!
With a tremendous bang, Hu Qi’s figure vanished from his spot.
The next second.
The Golden Armor Immortal who spoke first saw Hu Qi’s figure abruptly appear before his eyes.
"Hmm? How bold!"
The Golden Armor Immortal’s gaze shifted.
Golden light surged from his body as he swung the Long Halberd in his hand, slashing directly at Hu Qi.
BOOM!
An invisible ripple of energy blasted outward!
CRACK!
The instant the Halberd Blade met the fist, however, a horrifying sound of shattering echoed out.
The Long Halberd in his hand, a weapon whose grade was far beyond a Top-grade Magical Treasure, exploded into fragments that shot out in all directions.
At the same time, Hu Qi’s fist continued unabated, smashing heavily into the Golden Armor Immortal’s chest.
In just an instant.
The force carried by the punch instantly pierced through the Golden Armor on the Immortal’s body.
"You..."
A sliver of clarity seemed to return to the Golden Armor Immortal’s eyes.
He wanted to say something.
But before the words could leave his mouth, his body exploded like it was made of paper-mâché.
Afterward.
A transparent Light of the Soul, pulled by threads of fate, tried to escape.
"Hmph!"
Faced with this scene, Hu Qi just gave a cold snort.
An invisible ripple spread out.
The threads of fate snapped instantly.
Hu Qi devoured the Light of the Soul, and it vanished.
Modification Point +5365 (51%)
With a single blow, a Golden Armor Immortal was dead on the spot!
"Audacious fiend!"
"This monster is beyond redemption! He deserves a thousand deaths!"
"He dares to kill an Immortal! Kill him!!"
...
The moment the Golden Armor Immortal fell, a cacophony of furious roars erupted from all sides. Shock and rage mingled in the air, making the very heavens tremble.
The expressions of the once proud and aloof Immortals warped, their eyes filling with cold, murderous intent.
They charged Hu Qi without hesitation, unleashing a torrent of devastating Magic.
Empowered by this world’s Power of Authority, the Immortals were like terrifying beings at the Apostle Level Peak.
More than thirty Immortals attacked at once, their combined might so immense it shook heaven and earth.
Even Hu Qi was forced to retreat continuously under the bombardment of Magic that blotted out the sky.
"Hahahaha! Excellent! Come on, then!"
However, faced with such power, Hu Qi showed no fear. Instead, he laughed uproariously, his eyes shining with excitement.
The Golden Armor Immortal he had just devoured provided him with an essence far superior to that of the countless Cultivators and Demon Race members he had previously consumed.
If he could devour all of these Immortals, his essence might be enough to meet the requirements for advancing to True God.
At this thought, Hu Qi’s eyes suddenly transformed into eerie, Crimson snake pupils.
A rich, blood-red light threatened to spill from his eye sockets, chilling all who saw it.
"Today, I will use you all to forge the foundation of my ascension to True God!"
HISS!!!
An earth-shattering hiss from a giant snake ripped through the heavens.
The next moment, a great snake that blotted out the sky appeared between heaven and earth.
The snake’s body was an interlocking black and white, its scales as if forged from indestructible Divine Iron.
Immediately, a barrage of terrifying Magic slammed into the great snake, only to burst like bubbles, failing to leave so much as a scratch upon its scales.
In response to the attack, the great snake that was Hu Qi slithered through the air. A layer of black water materialized and instantly enveloped the surrounding Immortals.
Under the black water, the light from the Immortals’ Magical Treasures rapidly dimmed. They lost all their Spirituality, turning into piles of scrap metal.
Their faces turned a deathly shade of blue, as if being eaten away by an unseen force of Erosion.
This was the first time Hu Qi had used his Lifebound Technique, Profound Yin Heavy Water, since his breakthrough, and its power was far greater than before.
Any Magical Treasure it touched was reduced to useless scrap.
If not for the world’s Power of Authority protecting them, the Immortals would have long since melted into pools of black water.
Even so, they were severely affected, their movements sluggish and their auras in disarray.
Naturally, Hu Qi would not let this opportunity pass. He whipped his tail, as thick as a mountain, in a devastating sweep.
Wherever the giant tail passed, the Immortals burst like overripe fruit, erupting into clouds of blood mist.
Just then, an almost imperceptible ripple appeared in the void to one side.
A slender female Immortal’s figure abruptly appeared before his eyes.
"Die, monster!"
The female Immortal snarled.
Wielding a long spear, she stabbed directly at Hu Qi’s eye.
The spear’s tip flashed with purple light, carrying a terrifyingly sharp aura that tore through space, as if it could pierce anything.
Seeing this, the third eye on Hu Qi’s forehead suddenly split open. A black pillar of light shot out, directly enveloping the female Immortal.
The pillar of light receded, and the female Immortal, along with the spear in her hand, turned to Ashes.
After doing this, the Primordial Eye on Hu Qi’s forehead did not close. It continued to shoot out thick pillars of light, sweeping across the battlefield.
All who were touched by the pillars of light died on the spot.
To prevent these ’delicacies’ from escaping, Hu Qi unleashed his Spirit Devouring Talent with its full, unrestrained power.
The Gorging Domain formed a pitch-black black hole around his body, madly devouring everything in the vicinity.
Whether it was flesh and blood, Spiritual Power, or the remnant souls of the Immortals, nothing could escape its terrifying pull.
Between heaven and earth, only the hiss of the giant snake that Hu Qi had become echoed, as if announcing the start of his grand feast.
...
「On the earth below.」
Witnessing this scene, countless mortals and Cultivators trembled, their faith on the verge of collapse.
What were they seeing?
The once high and mighty Immortals who had achieved eternal life were now being slaughtered like ants by that giant snake.
Compared to the terror of the Human Race, the Demon Race felt an irrepressible excitement alongside their fear.
For a long time, they had been raised in captivity by Human Race Cultivators, slaughtered at will, their tendons pulled and bones stripped, reduced to mere Cultivation materials.
Slaying an Immortal! This was a feat countless members of the Demon Race had dreamed of.
However, they also knew that under the suppression of the Immortal Court and its Immortals, overthrowing their rule was nothing more than a fool’s dream.
But now, a member of the Demon Race had achieved the rank of Demon Immortal and had slaughtered Immortals with his own hands!
...
「Upon the Celestial Vault.」
The figures of the Immortals who had once stood proudly in the clouds were now gone.
In their place was an incomparably massive snake, coiled at the apex of the Celestial Vault, its terrifying pressure radiating outwards.
After the last Immortal was devoured by Hu Qi in a single bite, the world seemed to fall into a brief silence.
However, at this very moment.
"Amitabha. I never expected this realm to harbor a Snake of Destruction. No wonder it could disrupt the established threads of fate!"
Following the sound of the echoing voice, all eyes turned to the depths of the purple rift, where a brilliant golden light spilled out, illuminating the world.
The source of the golden light was a continuous stretch of palaces that seemed to be cast from solid Gold.
It was the Immortal Court.
And above the Immortal Court, three figures with blurred faces stood side by side.
Judging by their attire, from left to right, they represented the Dao, the Scholar, and the Buddha.
However, compared to the Immortals, the auras of these three were even more terrifying, as if they represented the very will of this world.
At this moment, they were sizing up Hu Qi with great interest, as if inspecting a rare curio.
"Is that so? I also never expected that the three patriarchs who overthrew the Demon Court would turn out to be a Fate Weaver!"
Hu Qi’s enormous snake head slowly lifted, his cold gaze piercing the three figures like a blade.
The words he spoke made the three figures freeze, as if he had just exposed a hidden secret.
