Immortal of the Ages

Chapter 309: More Trash!

After the decimated demon army dispersed, what remained on the battlefield was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but miles of bloodshed.

The once-mighty demon army of the Demon Continent had been utterly obliterated in this battle, becoming a mere footnote in history. In the aftermath, the remaining weak and wounded posed almost no threat to the Divine Continent.

Countless resentful spirits, mangled corpses, and tainted puddles of blood writhed and wailed under the drive of deep-seated grudges. A sinister wind churned through the valleys, and the stench of blood permeated the sky, lingering for what seemed like an eternity.

If Forbidden Fate were still around, this place would've been its paradise. The corpses and blood seeped into the earth, even staining the violet crystal-like terrain of the Demon Continent with streaks of red blood.

Suddenly, the countless pools of blood and corpses seemed to come alive, flowing towards a particular valley.

At first, the spread of the blood was slow, but as time passed, the flow quickened. Even the blood that had seeped into the ground at the edges of the battlefield was being drawn out, converging towards the valley in the center of the battlefield.

GURGLE! In that valley, a vast ocean of blood had already formed!

Vaguely visible in the center of this blood ocean was a slender silhouette.

Even bathed in the blood mist, one could make out her lithe and fiery figure, her hair cascading like a waterfall, her crimson eyes expressing both sorrow and pleasure. Her body was entwined with blood-red dragons, making her appear both delicate and domineering.

BUZZ! It was clear that the blood from the entire battlefield was being absorbed by her, refined into the purest essence, and integrated into her Mortal Dust Devil Blood, becoming a part of her strength.

"In the Fate Ocean Realm, the Devil Heart merges with the heart, completely blending with the devil blood. From then on, the Devil Heart and sacred power fuse into one, in perfect harmony with the powers of heaven and earth." In the dark of the night, her red lips parted slightly, her long eyelashes trembling gently.

"Do I need you to explain when I'm the one cultivating?" a voice emanated from her heart.

The War Princess hesitated. "Can't I even think to myself?" She huffed softly, looking down at her body's automatic cultivation and rapid transformation. This feeling of growing stronger while lying down was truly miraculous.

Every time she thought about it, it felt strange. Her heart, arteries, and blood vessels spread throughout her body, forming her own cultivation system, yet were not under her own control.

She could only watch as Yun Xiao used her body to completely absorb the sea of blood that had gathered on the battlefield!

Surveying the scene, the once blood-soaked land had turned dry and ashen gray.

All the demon corpses had become desiccated husks!

Across the hills and fields, not a speck of red remained.

"Terrifying..." the War Princess muttered. Even though it was her own body that had wrought this, she still felt a chill in her heart.

As the true master of this body, she could distinctly feel that after Yun Xiao refined all the demon blood from the battlefield with the Mortal Dust Blood Calamity, her cultivation was skyrocketing, breaking through the Fate Ocean Realm in no time!

And so, this once useless princess had, in mere days, caught up in cultivation to the likes of Fu Longxiang and Feng You, the top talents of the Nine Hells. And in terms of combat power, she far surpassed them!

"Is this my power?" The War Princess, feeling the overwhelming strength of her Mortal Dust Devil Blood, murmured to herself.

This Mortal Dust Devil Blood nourished her body, fortifying her flesh and bones to rival that of demons. Once she returned to the Endless Netherworld where she had access to high-grade Desolate Essence, her delicate body would be as formidable as a wild beast.

A twist of her waist, she reckoned, could cost someone half their life.

"Don't get ahead of yourself, this is my power," Yun Xiao slowly ceased his cultivation, then unapologetically stated.

"I know!" the War Princess thought contemptuously. How can this guy be so domineering?

He looked like a gentle jade-like young master, ethereal as an Immortal. Only in close quarters did she realize he was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

"You can return to the Endless Netherworld now," Yun Xiao said after a moment of recuperation.

"Do you no longer need me here?" the War Princess asked.

"Hmm. Almost done. You're needed more over there." Yun Xiao paused, then added, "Weren't you itching to go back to the Endless Netherworld to show off? With the power of the Fate Ocean Realm, you can stir up a storm there."

"Yes, I am indeed eager," the War Princess bit her lip, "but... will I get to see you again?" After speaking, her heart raced, flushing her entire body red.

"I'll be returning to the Nine Hells soon too, that's where the new battlefield is. We'll meet there. Also, don't let anyone else come through your Endless Netherworld entrance," Yun Xiao instructed.

"Okay!" The War Princess felt her blood surge with excitement. "So what's our goal? To dominate the Nine Hells?"

"Dominate?" Yun Xiao paused, his tone turning icy. "To be honest, I'm not particularly interested in that. My only goal in life is to grow stronger. To achieve that, I need resources. But now there's a bunch of people who not only don't want me to get those resources but are also eager for my death. So, I might as well wipe them out and dominate the Nine Hells along the way."

Yun Xiao longed for a tranquil life of cultivation, but the world just wouldn't let him be! The more he revealed his terrifying talent, the more those outside the Eternal Sword Prison wanted to annihilate him. No explanation seemed to suffice.

Perhaps this was the complexity of the mortal world. Everyone fought for their own interests, some even betraying their ancestors and beliefs for longevity, regardless of the consequences.

"The path to immortality is a path of contention. Talent, after all, isn't strength and can't intimidate everyone." The War Princess nodded.

"Especially when hatred is added to the mix, the scores become unclear," Yun Xiao said.

Take Fu Longxiang, for instance, or the Ku Family Sword Cultivators. Their deaths demanded vengeance.

"I'll do my best to ensure the Endless Netherworld stands with you. That way, in the strife of the Nine Hells, the Eternal Sword Prison will have an ally," the War Princess declared fervently. She was born for battle! Rather than indulging in affection, following him into battle seemed to excite her more.

"Go ahead," Yun Xiao said indifferently.

"Got it, Big Brother Yun," the War Princess called out sweetly.

"Too presumptuous, call me master."

"..."

During his conversation with the War Princess, Yun Xiao was descending towards the Divine Continent on an ancient bronze coffin that soared across the heavens and earth.

Indeed, his destination was the Divine Continent, not the Heavenly Realm. Not even the Sea of Swords, but Azure Spirit.

"Nine Suns Dantian?" Yun Xiao had already integrated Ling Chen's Seed of Creation talent into his Dantian ahead of time.

This caused a revolutionary change in the structure of his Dantian's sacred power!

The power of the Primordial Void, like the creation of the universe, gave birth to nine scorching suns hovering over his Dantian. They were incredibly solid and intense, able to store power far beyond his peers. Even in the Nine Hells, where Seeds of Creation were rampant, he was more than ten times stronger than the average prodigy.

In Azure Spirit, the difference would be even more pronouncedpossibly a thousand times or more. Of course, since Azure Spirit lacked the Dao Heart Realm, this couldn't be verified.

However, Yun Xiao only needed to look down to see a blazing platinum light emanating from below his navel, even visible through his white garment. Such was the prestige of the Nine Suns Dantian.

"Hehehe, if someone wasn't looking carefully, they might think your dao root was shining," Blue Star, the coffin lid, eerily remarked.

"What dao root? Hey, watch your language," Yun Xiao retorted. He tried operating the primordial void suns of his brand-new Nine Suns Dantian. Under the dominion of the Seed of Creation talent, his Yang Void sacred power became even more intense and scorching. He was like a blazing sun, illuminating for thousands of miles.

"Previously, Fu Longxiang's Seed of Creation talent was in his meridians, which were inherently inferior to the Nine Heavens Star Meridians, and got absorbed by them... Now that the Nine Heavens Star Meridians are fully awakened, they're about on par with the Nine Suns Dantian!" Yun Xiao stood up!

In the midst of the howling wind, as he activated the power of the Primordial Void, nine scorching suns forming a ring were clearly visible beneath his flowing white robe, around his lower abdomen. Surrounding these blazing suns was a network of stars, pulsating with stellar energy.

This network spread throughout Yun Xiao's body, forming a cultivation system as vast as the starry sky!

Nine Stars, Nine Suns Illuminating the Body!

This made him, already ethereal, appear even more like an Exiled Sword Immortal descending to the mortal world, a celestial being incarnate, flawless in every way.

"There probably isn't any other Core attribute Seed of Creation in the Nine Hells that surpasses these two," Blue Star commented.

"After all, one is from 'The Rise of the Cripple, Ye Xingchen', and the other from 'The Rebirth of the Divine Sky Sword Emperor, Ling Chen'," Yun Xiao said with a smile.

"Any Seeds of Creation talents you absorb in the future can continue to strengthen the Nine Suns and Nine Stars," Blue Star chuckled. "Nowadays, with the Heavenly Dao absent and petty people overshadowing the sky, chaos reigns in this era. Such anomalies on the path to immortality will only increase... But this is also good, as each of them carries great fortune, which can speed up your advancement."

"By the way, have you finished refining that Divine Sky Sword Emperor?" Yun Xiao asked. It was because they said they could recycle this waste that Yun Xiao had them directly imprison Ling Chen's corpse and soul in the ancient bronze coffin.

"The sword bone is purified, and the soul tempered. It's almost done!" Blue Star replied.

Yun Xiao sat atop the coffin, faintly hearing the Divine Sky Sword Emperor's soul screaming in agony and cursing him from inside. But his heart was as calm as a still well; he hardly listened.

Soon after, Ling Chen's voice faded away into oblivion.

Yun Xiao knew that only now was he truly dead.

BOOM! The ancient bronze coffin burst open, transforming into a little black beast.

"So, it's done now?" Yun Xiao asked.

No sooner had he spoken, Blue Star, with a twisted face, abruptly spat something out onto his hand.

BLEGH! Two faintly glowing objects landed in Yun Xiao's palm.

One was a small, nine-colored sword.

The other was a misty, illusory white jade bead.

"What are these?" Yun Xiao asked.

"This is the Divine Cosmic Sword. Since it's transformed into a Sword Soul, we stripped the sword bone. We've removed all traces of Ling Chen, leaving it as a nascent sword bone that anyone can absorb," Blue Star said with an arrogant tilt of the head.

"So you can become just like Ling Chen by absorbing it?" Yun Xiao asked.

"Pretty much! When it reaches its full power, it can devour entire worlds!" Blue Star explained.

"That powerful, huh?" Yun Xiao had anticipated this, but hearing firsthand about such remarkable effects still left him astonished. He had personally experienced the might of this primeval era's mythical sword of destruction!

"Heh, it's just like the Cosmic Pagoda, trash," Blue Star scoffed.

"..." Yun Xiao was about to ask if his Heaven Burial Sword Soul could absorb it, but Blue Star's dismissal dampened his enthusiasm.

"What about this thing?" he asked, referring to the white light sphere.
