Chapter 787: Kill the Immortal with One Finger!
Invocation of the Gods!
The unique secret technique of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion! With divine possession, one’s combat power soared!
After using the Invocation of the Gods, Dongji Immortal, who was at the Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage, had almost reached the Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage Peak.
A vast divine might pressed down from all directions!
"Kneel!"
Dongji Immortal’s body swelled in size, filled with authority as if a true Giant Spirit God had descended upon the world. A single command was like a divine oracle!
Several weaker Foundation Building Immortals from the Four Seas Gate faltered and were grievously wounded by a strike from their Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion opponents!
"Dong Ji! Are you mad? How dare you use the Invocation of the Gods?"
Sea-Covering Immortal had not anticipated that Dongji Immortal would become so frenzied this early in the battle. The Invocation of the Gods could indeed make one’s combat power surge, but the price was equally steep. A single use cost at least thirty years of one’s lifespan. Furthermore, Dong Ji’s innate aptitude would also plummet, taking at least fifty years to recover.
At Dong Ji’s age, this one invocation had essentially severed his path of cultivation.
An expression of fury appeared on Dongji Immortal’s sacred, god-like face.
"You tried to sever the hope of our Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion’s rise, and you still expect to leave here alive? Even if we have to fight to the last man, the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion will pursue the Four Seas Gate to the bitter end!"
Dongji Immortal waved his hand forward. His Peach Wood Sword, empowered with divine might, transformed into a titanic blade that smashed down toward Sea-Covering Immortal.
Sea-Covering Immortal’s face turned deathly pale. He had underestimated how much the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion valued the Banished Immortal Seed! A Proud Son of Heaven who could have advanced to the late stage or even the peak of Foundation Establishment was willing to destroy his own future just to protect the Banished Immortal Seed.
Sea-Covering Immortal had never witnessed such fierce determination from the normally shrewd disciples of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion. The appearance of the Banished Immortal Seed had ignited the fighting spirit in the hearts of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion disciples.
"Hahaha! Well said, Dong Ji! To the death! Only death will end this!"
Ling Xuan Immortal laughed aloud and pointed his Peach Wood Sword to the sky. "Invocation of the Gods!"
"Invocation of the Gods!"
"Invocation of the Gods!"
In an instant, all the Foundation Building Immortals of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion brazenly used the Invocation of the Gods! Rays of Godlight erupted from their bodies.
"Kill!"
Possessed by gods, the immortals of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion began a massacre!
BOOM!
The Dao Arts Sea-Covering Immortal launched with his magic artifact, a precious orb, were instantly shattered by the titanic sword.
"Damn it! Block it!"
Blood streamed from Sea-Covering Immortal’s seven orifices as he desperately commanded the orb to withstand the Giant Spirit God’s sword strike!
CRACK!
The Giant Spirit God’s colossal sword cleaved down on the orb, which emitted a cracking sound before shattering amid a thunderous roar. One strike, and the orb was broken!
Sea-Covering Immortal violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. With bloodshot eyes, he repeatedly commanded his magical treasures to counterattack. He even activated a Forbidden Technique in an attempt to fight back against the Giant Spirit God!
But how could the power of a mortal contend with a god?
They exchanged ten blows, and each one left him heavily injured.
The eleventh blow!
Sea-Covering Immortal’s protective barrier was broken, and the Giant Spirit God’s sword cleaved down upon his head. His skull shattered and his body was torn asunder. Sea-Covering Immortal was split in two.
After slaying Sea-Covering Immortal, Dongji Immortal did not pause, instead charging fiercely toward the remaining Foundation Building Immortals of the Four Seas Gate.
The Four Seas Gate originally had one more person than the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion. However, all seven members of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion had used the Invocation of the Gods. With their strength soaring, they completely steamrolled the Foundation Building Immortals of the Four Seas Gate.
In the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, all eight Foundation Building Immortals from the Four Seas Gate were annihilated!
After the slaughter, the divine auras had not yet faded from the seven members of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion.
Dongji Immortal glared at Lin Mu and snarled, "Lin Wudi, do you see this? This is the resolve of our Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion. I ask you one last time! Hand over Shangguan Shiming, or die!"
Shangguan Shiming was shaken as she witnessed the scene unfold before her, and she began to tremble inexplicably. Even as a disciple of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion, she had never imagined that her fellow sect members would become so crazed for the sake of a so-called Banished Immortal Seed whose identity hadn’t even been verified. Dongji Immortal... a Proud Son of Heaven who had a chance to reach the Foundation Establishment Peak! Now, he didn’t hesitate to destroy his own foundation and kill a powerful enemy from the Four Seas Gate, all just to bring her back to the Sect!
At this moment, it was impossible to say her heart wasn’t moved.
The Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion paid such a grievous price, yet she, the Banished Immortal Seed, was a fake! She didn’t dare to imagine what terrifying retribution she would face once the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion learned the truth!
Lin Mu slowly rose to his feet and said coolly, "No one can take away my maidservant."
His voice was like a blade, slicing through the void, making the seven Foundation Building Immortals from the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion feel Lin Wudi’s tyrannical aura.
"Also..."
Lin Mu stepped forward. "You just said the grudges between myself and the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion would be forgotten?"
Although unsure of his point, Dongji Immortal explained, "That’s right, forgotten! Not only that, but our Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion will also treat you as a distinguished guest! If you wish to join our Sect, that can be discussed!"
"Even if you wish to become a disciple of the Divine Calculator Great Ancestor, that is not out of the question!"
In Dongji Immortal’s opinion, the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion’s sincerity was undeniable. A mere cultivator from the secular world had killed one of their Foundation Building Immortals, yet not only were they letting it go, but they were also offering him a place in the Sect as a disciple of the Divine Calculator Great Ancestor. What an incredible honor! If Lin Wudi had an ounce of sense, he would go with the flow and help Shangguan Shiming return to the Sect.
Shangguan Shiming, however, sighed. The moment Dongji Immortal mentioned becoming the Divine Calculator Great Ancestor’s disciple, she knew it was over. With Lin Wudi’s pride, how could he possibly take another as his master? Not even a Golden Core Great Ancestor would be worthy!
As expected, Lin Mu smiled faintly and said, "A mere Core Formation junior, worthy of being my master?"
Dongji Immortal, Ling Xuan Immortal, and the others were enraged. At this moment, possessed by their invoked gods, they radiated a terrifying pressure like enraged deities. Half of Sky Mechanism City was shrouded in their divine fury. Within Sky Mechanism City, all the merchants fell silent, prostrating themselves beneath the wrath of the gods.
"Lin Wudi! Do you know what crime you’ve committed by insulting a Golden Core Great Ancestor?"
Dongji Immortal took a step forward. The duration of his Invocation of the Gods was nearing its limit, and his patience was wearing thin.
This Proud Son of Heaven from the secular world is truly ignorant and incorrigibly stubborn!
Lin Mu didn’t bother to explain, merely stating coolly, "What gives you the right to declare the grudge between us forgotten?"
As his voice fell, Lin Mu was already standing before Dongji Immortal, his gaze like ice.
"You..."
"Scram!"
A single word was spoken, and the wind and clouds stirred. The Giant Spirit God within Dongji Immortal’s body trembled as if it had seen its emperor. Its divine light flickered with terror and apprehension. It actually tore itself from Dongji Immortal’s body and knelt at Lin Mu’s feet.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
The seven members of the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion had used the Invocation of the Gods, and now, the seven deities from the Upper Realm all knelt before Lin Mu! With a single word, he made the gods kneel!
Dongji Immortal stared in disbelief at the scene unfolding before him.
The gods... were actually prostrating themselves before Lin Wudi!
"Who in the world are you!"
The Invocation of the Gods was forcibly terminated, leaving Dongji Immortal pale-faced with a weakened soul. His aura had diminished by seventy to eighty percent, plummeting to the early Foundation Establishment Realm!
"I am Lin Wudi."
Lin Mu pointed a finger.
PFFT!
A Foundation Building Immortal from the Celestial Northern Dipper Pavilion had his head pierced through by that single finger. He had no power to resist.
Ling Xuan!
The one Lin Mu had killed was not Dong Ji, but Ling Xuan Immortal!
Before Dong Ji could react, Lin Mu’s finger jabbed out again and again. His movements were as casual as someone pointing things out on the street, yet each point of his finger claimed the life of a Foundation Building Immortal.
