Above the Great Dao

Chapter 495: The Swan Song of the Purple Mansion Primordial Cauldron


Immortal Kou followed that blood-red radiance and saw the Da Shang Heavenly Court covered in flesh, countless pieces of flesh writhing.

At this time, a mass of flesh fell from the sky, landing in a pit, slowly writhing, extending tentacles in all directions.

Zhong Wuwang's scalp tingled, remembering his encounters on the Blood Moon and the Shattered Heavenly Court, his heart filled with fear.

The greatest witch of Da Shang, Wu Qi, led thirty thousand years of accumulation by the Mysterious Bird Heavenly Court, in a battle against the mastermind who caused the world to turn evil. The Heavenly Court was smashed, countless Da Shang divines' souls scattered, Wu Qi died in battle, but ultimately killed the mastermind!

But from the anomalies here, it seemed the mastermind's Primordial Spirit or soul was not destroyed, piercing through the underworld, and fell here.

His Primordial Spirit decomposed, the Demon Qi polluted the surroundings, forming the area with the heaviest Demon Qi in the underworld, causing the creatures here to undergo Demon Transformation.

Originally, the creatures here during the Great Shang Period should have been mutant beasts like Shen-shen, transforming into ghost monsters. But due to this person's Primordial Spirit decomposing and demonizing, they became half-ghost, half-demon creatures.

And Huo Dou is one of them.

And the mastermind completed a usurpation in this peasant village.

Zhong Wuwang murmured hoarsely, "Brother Kou, let's go!"

Immortal Kou stared at the writhing flesh, suddenly flickering and pulling him as he rapidly retreated.

He used Immortal methods, spanning vast distances in a single step, making mountains and rivers shrink beneath his feet, yet the peasant village was always before him, neither far nor near, just enough to see the dead villagers within.

Immortal Kou's heart sank, "I might have fallen into this person's Daoist Field! No, it should be Ghost God Domain! A Daoist Field is upright, but a Ghost God Domain is so entangled!"

He changed his Divine Skills, using the Heaven Ascending Gate, a Heavenly Ladder appeared in the sky, with the other end seemingly suspended in the Immortal Realm.

Immortal Kou carried Zhong Wuwang, climbing swiftly like a Spiritual Ape, ascending swiftly towards the heavens.

In an instant, they climbed outside the heavens, Immortal Kou feeling pleased in his heart, looking up only to see the peasant village hung upside down above, and the demonically laden ground also inverted in the skies.

Immortal Kou's expression slightly changed, retracing the way back, finding the peasant village still in its original place.

This Ghost God Domain, he had never seen before.

Suddenly, a mass of flesh drilled into a villager's corpse, and the villager stood upright, laughing heartily, "What a rejuvenating sleep! Kou Daoqi, today this place will be your grave!"

Immortal Kou's heart subtly trembled, "He knows my true name!"

He was a Great Shang Remnant, having fled to Despair Slope, thereafter self-named himself as Daoist Kou, and after Harmonization at Despair Slope, self-appointed as Immortal Kou. Those who knew his true name were extremely few.

The villager suddenly flew up, contorted and grotesque, rushing at them.

As he moved, the other dead villagers rose as if connected by invisible threads, flying from the village, pouncing at them!

Immortal Kou and Zhong Wuwang hung inverted in the sky, watching the oncoming corpses, these dead villagers emitted an aura not weaker than Heavenly Immortals!

Each villager's brow blossomed with Immortal Light, from which flew a round bulging Big Tripod, standing on three legs, the tripod's walls emerging with splendid Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns.

"These corpses are using my Cultivation Technique!"

Immortal Kou's heart pounded fiercely, these villagers wielded precisely his Harmonization and Immortality Cultivation Technique, the Purple Mansion Primordial Cauldron Technique.

This technique he had realized by combining thirteen Immortal Techniques and his strengths.

This Cultivation Technique refines the Purple Mansion into a Primordial Cauldron, this cauldron can collect Immortal Light and Immortal Energy, serving as both Immortal Magical Treasure and Cultivation Method, when encountering enemies, the Primordial Cauldron emerges from the Purple Mansion, walls encircling him, forming an impenetrable defense. Simultaneously offering this cauldron can capture people and objects, unstoppable.

He placed the Primordial Cauldron in the Purple Mansion, his cultivation thicker than others, even surpassing his former master Feng Ruotong.

His Purple Mansion Primordial Cauldron Technique is unique due to the strange Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns on the cauldron, stemming from his bloodline inheritance. As a descendant of Da Shang, inheriting the father's work, his ancestor was a Fireworker under Zhu Rong in the Great Shang Court, so the Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns contained within his bloodline were precisely Fire Dao's Dao Patterns.

Yet these corpses' cauldrons also exhibited Fireworkers' Dao Patterns!

Immortal Kou had never leaked this technique beyond Despair Slope, how did these corpses possess his technique?

Both sides clashed, colliding with a roar, with each cauldron erupting infinite firepower, as though each hid small suns inside!

Zhong Wuwang, even though he achieved Harmonization was soon overwhelmed by such formidable attacks, only exchanging a few blows before realizing he couldn't cope.

Although his Realm had reached Heavenly Immortal Realm, compared to these people like Immortal Kou, his cultivation still showed its lack, being able to withstand two or three moves without being killed was an incredible feat.

Suddenly Zhong Wuwang lost his footing, drawn in by a villager's cauldron, instantly pulled into the cauldron, Immortal Kou transformed into rainbow light and followed him inside.

Inside the cauldron was ablaze with Immortal Fire, incinerating everything, Zhong Wuwang had just entered and felt he couldn't endure, his entire cultivation seemingly about to ignite!

At this point, another cauldron descended from the sky, enclosing him within, the surrounding Immortal Fire immediately extinguished, Zhong Wuwang felt a refreshing coolness around him. Looking up, he saw a burning great sun suspended in that cauldron, blazing Pure Yang.

Immortal Kou landed beside him, speaking solemnly, "Wuwang, Rainbow Transformation Technique!"

Zhong Wuwang immediately invoked the Rainbow Transformation Immortal Technique, both transforming into rainbow lights, traversing thousands of miles in an instant, arriving at the edge of that Big Tripod, Immortal Kou stepped swiftly, striking out with a palm, a thunderous sound exploded, splitting the cauldron open, the two flew out of it.

Zhong Wuwang hadn't stabilized yet when he saw Immortal Kou already twisting the neck of the cauldron's owner, his brow split open, a wave of fire shot from his brow, reducing the person's bones to ashes.

Immortal Kou's brow closed, inhaling deeply, his cauldron suddenly vanished within his body, only to hear series of explosive sounds "Dangdangdang," the villagers each summoning their cauldrons, battering towards them, yet the cauldron-shaped Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns surrounding him fended them off!

The villagers retrieved their cauldrons, readying to attack again, suddenly Immortal Kou's surrounding Dao Patterns fell upon his body's surface, truly merging with the cauldron, targeting a villager. In moments, he executed dozens of moves, shattering the villager's cauldron, killing the villager!

He turned and transformed into a rainbow light, lightly winding in the air, arriving behind Zhong Wuwang, blocking an impending deadly strike with his physical body, pointing on the attacker's brow, forcibly breaking their Purple Mansion Primordial Cauldron Technique!

Blood streamed from Immortal Kou's lips, while the villager fell dead.

"Wu Wang, observe the surroundings!"

The Immortal Kou fought against the other Shang people, his voice echoing in Zhong Wuwang's mind, "His true body is not here, preventing him from exerting his full strength. When fighting me, his Ghost God Domain will inevitably reveal a flaw. Your talent is exceptional; you will surely see this flaw and escape from here!"

Zhong Wuwang fought the Shang people while observing the surroundings.

The world around him was dim, revealing no flaws.

Sweat broke out on Zhong Wuwang's forehead; he narrowly escaped death several times at the hands of the Shang people due to his distractions, only saved by the Immortal Kou's fierce battle.

But the injuries on Immortal Kou's body increased, though his attacks remained exceptionally fierce, his steps faltered, and his Qi-Blood was not as vigorous as before.

Suddenly, Zhong Wuwang saw a flash of light, not revealing the underworld Demon Domain but the Mortal World, causing him great joy.

When the light appeared again, he immediately activated the Rainbow Transformation Immortal Technique, soaring and transforming into a rainbow beam, flying into the light, using his own mana to stabilize it.

On the other side of the light was the Mortal World!

"Brother Kou, I found the flaw in the Ghost God Domain, hurry!" he shouted back.

Immortal Kou fought valiantly, pushing back the Shang people, rushing toward him, but was quickly besieged by more than ten Shang people, while others rushed swiftly toward Zhong Wuwang.

Immortal Kou summoned his last vestiges of strength, breaking through the encirclement, holding off those pursuing Zhong Wuwang, shouting, "Wu Wang, don't worry about me, you go first! Once you leave, I'll have no burden and can break through to follow!"

Zhong Wuwang hesitated, more Shang people attacked, yet Immortal Kou held them back.

"Go quickly!" Immortal Kou roared.

Zhong Wuwang hesitated no more, turning and flew through the light.

Sunlight poured down, into his eyes, dazzling him.

Zhong Wuwang's eyes teared, his heart mourned.

Immortal Kou might not escape that Ghost God Domain.

"Master Uncle, you must hold on; I'll find other Heavenly Dao Immortals!"

He hurried toward Heavenly Dao City, distant from here, taking even his speed until tomorrow to reach.

He gave his all, lightning-fast, but gradually his injuries began to act up, constantly depleting his cultivation.

He flew from day until night, only covering a third of the distance.

Zhong Wuwang's flight slowed, knowing his heavy injuries and forced flight to Heavenly Dao City would only worsen them.

He staggered down, using his cultivation technique, suppressing his injuries, slowly recovering mana.

Moonlight fell, beneath the moon's shadow, the trees in the mountain forest danced like ghost monsters.

At that moment, Zhong Wuwang sensed something, immediately rising swiftly, looking toward the moonlit forest shadow, shouted, "Who's there?"

Footsteps approached, Immortal Kou, blood-covered, smiling, emerged from the shadow.

Zhong Wuwang was overwhelmed with joy, tears spilling out, rushing toward Immortal Kou.

"Master Uncle, I thought you died in the underworld!"

He rushed several steps, suddenly stopped, looked around; the moonlight faded, Demon Qi flourishing, spreading from Immortal Kou in all directions.

The world grew dimmer.

Zhong Wuwang's heart sank deeper.

He looked up to see a finger-sized hole in Immortal Kou's forehead, clear and bright.

"Wu Wang, you recognized me, right?" Immortal Kou laughed, blood and flesh squirmed in his skull.

"No."

Zhong Wuwang shook his head repeatedly, fear overwhelming his heart.

Immortal Kou laughed, "You recognized me, you know who I am. Speak, voice your guess, let me see if it's right."

Sweat broke out on Zhong Wuwang's forehead, suddenly he gritted his teeth, "You're Immortal Feng Ruotong!"

Immortal Kou's smile widened, "Wrong guess."

His figure blurred, next moment appeared before Zhong Wuwang, a finger pointed at Zhong Wuwang's forehead.

"Bang!"

Zhong Wuwang's back of the head exploded, swaying, collapsing to the ground.

Immortal Kou laughed loudly, leaping away, vanished.

After a long time, the surrounding Demon Qi dispersed, moonlight fell on Zhong Wuwang's corpse.

On his body's surface, Undying Immortal Method's Witch Sacrificial Dao Pattern slowly emerged, gradually circulating, bit by bit repairing his brain.
