Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 847 - 427: Surviving Calamity, Obtaining a First-Grade Opportunity (2)

Blinding sparks erupted the moment the sword's edge slammed into the barrier, yet the surface merely rippled for a heartbeat before returning to its original state.

Witnessing this, the other Nascent Soul Cultivators immediately unleashed their personal Demon Dao magical treasures: demon blades radiating a bone-chilling cold, chains crackling with crimson lightning, and Demon Dao jade bottles exhaling plumes of black fire.

In a flash, a tempest of diverse attacks descended upon the barrier.

Each strike carried the concentrated might of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, possessing a destructive force that felt like an earth-shattering disaster.

It was power enough to lay waste to a thousand miles of territory.

However, despite the ferocity of these Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators, the barrier stood as immovable as a mountain; their formidable assaults appeared as weak as a toddler’s strike against it.

The defensive capability of the Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman, the Heaven-Covering Wheel Talisman, was undeniably staggering.

Mortal talismans could not even begin to compare.

In terms of raw strength, its protection was on par with a Tier Five Defensive Array.

"How can this be? What sort of technique is this? Why won't it break?"

"What kind of sorcery is this?!"

Many of the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators stood paralyzed, unable to process the sight before them.

The reality was simply too incredible to grasp.

They were witnessing the combined, full-power strikes of forty-nine Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators, including several at the late-stage Nascent Soul level.

Despite their combined efforts, the golden defensive barrier remained unyielding.

It seemed as though the golden light was swallowing and absorbing every ounce of their power.

It stood like an impregnable golden fortress.

Repelling wave after wave of terrifying energy.

"Die."

Observing the chaos, Jiang Fan produced the Great Sun Buddha Mirror to deal with the cluster of Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators. Indeed, the True Sun Fire was far more efficient, leaving them with no place to retreat.

He funneled his surging Primordial Magical Power into the mirror.

The ancient power hidden deep within the Great Sun Buddha Mirror was instantly ignited.

Boom~~

A resonant and pure Buddhist chant tore through the heavens as the gilded Buddha mirror emerged from the clouds, the Sanskrit inscriptions upon its surface erupting with ten thousand golden rays.

A crimson shadow projected from the mirror, merging with the blazing sun above. In that heartbeat, the sky was stained a vivid, glaring blood-red.

Innumerable bowl-sized sunflowers spilled from the mirror, their petals flickering with True Sun Fire capable of incinerating anything in existence. Dense Extinguishing Demon runes flowed through the veins of the petals, their glow intertwining with the flames to create a terrifyingly eerie spectacle.

The air twisted instantly wherever the sunflowers drifted, and the very fabric of space groaned under the immense pressure.

Great mountains crumbled like melting ice beneath the searing heat, and solid stone vaporized, transforming into thick lava that cascaded down the slopes.

The ground shuddered violently as cracks spread like spiderwebs, and magma erupted from the depths to form towering, horrific pillars of fire.

The entirety of Demon Wind Valley appeared to be trapped within a doomsday furnace.

"Curse it, that is True Sun Fire! It is the ultimate bane of us Demon Cultivators!"

"Damn it, there must be a traitor among us. How many traps have they laid for our execution?"

"Break out! We must break out now! We will make the Righteous Cultivators pay for this in the future!"

"If they think killing us Demon Dao Cultivators is easy, they are mistaken!"

The expressions of many Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators shifted drastically as they felt the approach of certain death.

Every one of them realized that the power of this terrifying flame could reduce them to cinders.

"You dare interfere with this old man's breakthrough to Divinity Transformation? Perish at once!"

The speaker was Lu Hai Demon Monarch. He had been in secluded meditation within Demon Wind Valley, preparing for his tribulation in two days' time—a critical moment for his path.

However, faced with such a lethal crisis, continuing his seclusion was no longer an option.

His only hope of completing his breakthrough was to slaughter the invaders.

Driven by this, Lu Hai Demon Monarch abandoned his meditation and charged out from the valley depths.

Lu Hai Demon Monarch performed rapid hand seals, summoning a demon shield for protection.

Yet, the moment the first sunflower brushed against the shield, the sound of straining, cracking defense filled the air.

"How is this possible?!"

Lu Hai Demon Monarch was filled with disbelief; he watched in terror as his most prized defense was incinerated as easily as thin paper by the True Sun Fire.

A swarm of sunflowers then consumed him. His agonizing screams sounded pathetic within the vast ocean of fire, and in an instant, his Nascent Soul was erased by the flames and runes, leaving behind nothing but a wisp of smoke.

The notorious Lu Hai Demon Monarch had been burned alive.

Having not yet reached Divinity Transformation, he was utterly insignificant when facing Jiang Fan’s Great Sun Buddha Mirror.

He could not even endure for a single breath.

Slaying Lu Hai Demon Monarch had been as simple as chopping vegetables.

"It's over, everything is over! Lu Hai Demon Monarch is dead!"

"Curse him, the man was a total failure, dying at the first sign of trouble!"

"I fail to see what the master saw in him, granting him the opportunity to ascend to Divinity Transformation."

"Exactly. If it were me, I would have reached Divinity Transformation long ago instead of waiting until now."

"Stop your babbling and run! The enemy is far too powerful; we are no match for them!"

The remaining Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators turned pale with fright after seeing Lu Hai Demon Monarch killed so instantly.

Though they spoke of him with contempt, they all secretly respected his power.

If even he could not survive a single exchange, the enemy's strength was beyond imagination.

They were clearly outmatched by this mysterious foe.

Staying behind meant certain death, following the same path as Lu Hai Demon Monarch.

In a desperate move, these Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators activated every magical treasure they possessed.

Some donned ice armor, while others released Nine Nether Demon Mist or similar defenses.

They exhausted every technique at their disposal, fighting with everything they had.

A few even attempted to teleport away, only to find their path blocked by the barrier.

Furthermore, their dark demonic arts were useless against the True Sun Fire, the manifestation of the world's ultimate yang power.

In a mere instant, the ice armor turned to liquid and the demon mist was incinerated. The bodies of the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators twisted and charred within the heat, their nascent souls writhing in agony against the searing runes.

Eventually, they were completely refined, vanishing into the sea of fire.

"The Great Sun Buddha Mirror truly lives up to its reputation."

"This was the legendary pure yang treasure of the Void Realm in ancient times."

"There is no telling how many demons have met their end in its flames."

Observing the scene, the Primordial Talisman Pen was filled with awe.

It realized that even if it had interfered, the task would not have been this simple.

The True Sun Fire was the natural enemy of these demon cultivators, rendering every one of their techniques void.

"True, it is a specialist in purging demons."

The Demon-Vibrating Bell also voiced its agreement.

To the bell, any treasure that could slay demons was a worthy companion and an excellent magical tool.

It was only a shame that the artifact spirit of the Great Sun Buddha Mirror had vanished; otherwise, they might have shared a conversation.

"Eliminating a group of Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators is no longer a challenge for me."

"The real difficulty is their talent for concealment."

"Without the guidance of the destiny prompt, finding them would have been nearly impossible."

"By then, I would have likely been facing Divinity Transformation Demon Cultivators."

Jiang Fan narrowed his eyes.

Though he had wiped out these Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators with ease, he did not underestimate the danger they posed.

They were only defeated so quickly because they had been caught off guard.

If they had sensed him coming, they would have likely fled long ago.

He would not have had such a perfect opportunity.

This reinforced the value of the destiny prompts, which allowed him to solve problems before they could even manifest.

It was like peering through the countless threads of fate.

Under such circumstances, it was nearly impossible for these Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators to survive.

Boom~~

At that moment, a new message etched itself into Jiang Fan’s mind: "You have reached Demon Wind Valley. Through careful planning, you have eliminated the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators, stopping a great disaster in its tracks and successfully navigating a life-and-death tribulation. You have earned a First-Grade Opportunity and six million Luck Points."

"This..."

Upon receiving the message, Jiang Fan's eyebrows rose in surprise.

In truth, he hadn't expected much from this mission.

Wiping out this nest of demon cultivators was a reward in itself.

Furthermore, demon cultivators were famously destitute; trying to loot them was usually a fruitless endeavor.

It was like trying to squeeze water from a stone.

He never anticipated that he would receive a First-Grade Opportunity, which was a truly unexpected gain.
