Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

The Primordial Chaos Great Luo Golden Immortal respected him, the Great Freedom Bodhisattva feared him.

The status that the beings of the world could only long for had become something easily attainable for this young man.

"..."

Yan Lanting and Feng Xi did not pay attention to the glances from their colleagues; they quietly looked at the figure on the city wall and tightly clenched the Demon Slaying Order in their hands.

Since Shen Yi chose to return and sat atop Jianyang Prefecture, there was no room for others to question.

Sure enough, facing the flattery from the two sects, Shen Yi pondered for a moment and suddenly chuckled.

He slightly raised his hand and said lightly, "I'm no True Monarch, nor do I have time to act as the leader of all immortals."

The terrifying power that others dared not dream of, the young man discarded with a simple sentence as if it was a worn-out shoe.

This subtle gesture seemed to have touched the deepest fear in the monks' hearts, reminding them of the scene from the East Continent's Dharma Gathering, where his pale hand was stained with so much Bodhisattva blood that it was almost uncountable.

Most of them were merely Third Grade Bodhisattvas, lacking the Undying and Undying Divine Skills of their elders.

"Shen Yi! Aren't you afraid my sect's True Buddha will suppress you eternally!"

Previously, the agreed Dharma Gathering was understandable, since it was a matter of skill being inferior to others with no blame to anyone. But now, having angered the Bodhi Sect and in a Three Immortals Sect's unfavorable situation, if he dared to senselessly start a massacre, even the Three Pure Ones would have no reason to protect him if the two sects knew!

"You..." Suddenly, the followers of the Three Immortals turned around and looked at the rolling black clouds, which swallowed the Sky Curtain in an instant, the boundless shadow enveloping them all.

They suddenly realized, staring at Shen Yi in disbelief.

This person who once fought for the Immortal Sect as the top disciple, helping the Three Immortals Sect suppress those monks, had now shown killing intent towards them!

"You are a whore for the Divine Dynasty!"

If they can't see it by now, then their cultivation boundaries have been in vain.

Unfortunately, the clouds were too thick, with the Spiritual Treasures within reaching their peak, even the Great Freedom Snow Mountain Bodhisattva holding the Innate Buddha Treasure was punched to death, let alone these few Second Grade Cultivators, along with a group of Third Grade Disciples.

They wanted to curse in anger, but they had no opportunity to voice it, as the black fog engulfed them, pouring into their ears, nose, mouth, and tongues, then slowly dragging their bodies into its depths until there was no more breath.

At the moment when Shen Yi's hand fell, the world returned to clarity, except that the traces of the immortal Buddhas had vanished.

This crisp and neat scene undoubtedly scared everyone completely.

Not to mention ordinary Demon Slayer Bureau messenger soldiers, even if they stared their eyes wide, they couldn't understand what happened, and even the experienced True Gods trembled as if struck by lightning.

Logically, the disparity between Second Grades shouldn't be to such an extent.

Shen Yi's casual move formed a crushing momentum infinitely close to a First Rank Giant against the cultivators of the same boundary.

The title and achievements of the leader of all immortals had nothing to do with merit or qualifications... It was forcibly fought out with hard strength!

"Tsk."

The Fire Ancestor God raised an eyebrow; even though the True God Sect did not care about the affairs of the mundane world, witnessing the ruthlessness of this young man's action, He was still somewhat surprised.

Having been withdrawn for long, the slaughter in this world had become so cruel.

But as a god and demon who had existed since the beginning of creation, He had grown accustomed to this operation; as long as it does not affect the stability of the world itself, the rest does not matter.

Thinking of this, the Ancestor God sat up slightly, waiting for the young man's salute and worship.

"..."

Shen Yi also looked at the Flame Giant, a moment later, he stood up, clapped his hands, and turned away from the city wall.

Due to Qinghua's infiltration into the True God Sect, he recognized early on the nature of these gods and demons.

They are manifestations of Heavenly Dao's rules and do not interfere with the operation of the world.

Sounds fair.

But put another way, it also means they are useless to the human world.

Why respect useless deities?

Seeing this, the corner of the Fire Ancestor God's eye twitched slightly, causing Qi Feng, who was flying up and about to introduce Shen Yi, to pause.

No... This young man wasn't so arrogant in the past.

Qi Feng gulped, his smile slightly stiff, intending to explain Shen Yi a bit further, after all, the other party had once saved them.

As the Ancestor God seemed to have just awakened and perhaps hadn't realized the greedy intentions of the two sects, nor the terrifying growth rate of this youth; such a Heavenly Pride, if cultivated by the Ancestor Gods, would undoubtedly be an invaluable asset to the True God Sect!

Yet before He could get closer, the Flame Giant had already slowly stood up and silently headed toward Southern Sumeru.

The heavens and earth have turned countless times, and in the long river of time, numerous Heavenly Prides have emerged, including figures like the Three Pure Ones and Buddha who successfully dominate an era, but no matter who is in charge, they ultimately must honor the True God, for they inherently represent the supreme Heavenly Dao.

The Ancestor God has no interest in explaining this truth to a high-minded young man. As the young man stands higher, he will eventually realize it.

This time, he awoke to confront the Future Buddha.

Yet that bald donkey is hiding everywhere. The Ancestor God sensed the turmoil in the atmosphere here and came over to inquire. Since that group of Immortals and Buddhas is dead, he might as well return to Sumeru Mountain and continue waiting.

With the departure of the True Gods, Jianyang Prefecture returned to its previous tranquility.

"Unexpectedly... you came back so quickly."

Feng Xi rubbed her eyes, looking at Shen Yi, who had already walked to her side. Even now, she still felt as if she were in a dream: "What on earth happened..."

The terrifying scene just now made her, the General of Southern Defense, re-experience the helpless despair of mortals.

Before Immortals and Buddhas, creatures of the red dust remain as humble as ants.

Why in a short time did the two teachings become so blatant, what is the situation in the other Three Continents now, and what has this young man gone through?

"Perhaps it's time for a desperate battle."

Shen Yi gazed northward, softly responding, and casually patted Yan Lanting on the back, transmitting a thread of Tribulation Power, making the old man's face a bit more flushed.

"A desperate battle?" Mr. Yan was momentarily dazed.

Listening to this description, someone who doesn't know might think the two teachings are on the disadvantaged side.

The group had not yet completely recovered from the shock just now, but this sentence caught their attention.

"It should be ending soon."

Shen Yi withdrew his gaze and walked slowly into Jianyang Prefecture.

Even though the citizens of the city were scared out of their wits by the previous changes, no longer as peaceful as before, the intact city, the slightly old long street, still made him feel a bit relaxed.

Yang Mingli was originally following closely behind the young man, but his footsteps suddenly halted.

According to his understanding of Shen Yi, the latter was used to traveling alone and wouldn't share with others before things were settled.

For instance, back then, until this young man left the Southern Continent, this group of old folks knew what had happened at last.

But today, what Shen Yi actually said were consecutive words like "perhaps" and "should."

Has the world's situation reached a level even he finds hard to grasp?

Yet this is the one recognized as the leader of all Immortals by the two teachings!

"..."

Shen Yi certainly knew his words would leave the crowd in anxiety.

But these were truly his heartfelt words.

With such severe casualties between the two teachings, even Houtu Huangdi Qi was implicated, the sect hierarchs of both sides would surely intervene, and his actions would definitely be noticed.

Even if he sacrificed his life, Shen Yi would no longer have the opportunity to affect the situation of heaven and earth.

But it's enough.

Because, after the events in the East Continent, the strength of the two teachings was reduced by at least seventy percent.

Even according to the Human Emperor's plan, if the Imperial Court remains indifferent, watching the two teachings oppress the common people, and waits for continuous internal conflicts between Immortals and Buddhas, the final outcome could not be better than the current situation.

The only thing that can be done now is to hope that the man deep within the Imperial City truly possesses the ability to change the future of the red dust.

Just as Shen Yi was pondering.

The Imperial City surrounded by the Four Continents was in a frenzy.

Urgent intelligence reports flew into the Immortal Department one after another, and as the news within them entered the eyes of the lean middle-aged man sitting behind the desk, the shock and ecstasy in his eyes became increasingly uncontrollable.

His hand couldn't help but tremble.

Lin Shuya never dreamed that the sliver of hope he had been waiting for would come right to his doorstep!

The two teachings are in a vicious struggle, with heavy casualties.

The True Buddha steps in to preside over the discussions, yet still no Immortal Emperor is selected, leading to the Golden Immortal Bodhisattvas falling into slumber one after another, resentment built up to an irreconcilable degree, implicating the Emperor.

This is… Heaven showing favor to the Divine Dynasty!
