The First Immortal of Destiny-Chapter 447 Each Showing Their Skills_1

Just as Yang Xuan had anticipated, although the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower’s defense against physical attacks was relatively weak...

However, it was, after all, a mid-grade Spiritual Artifact. Completely destroying it was not something that could be achieved effortlessly! As for the damage to the tower’s body, as long as the nine mystical Demonic Qis were unharmed and the core undamaged, future repairs would be convenient.

Merely paying this price to heavily injure Shen Mo, Yang Xuan felt, was quite a bargain.

BANG!

A faint golden rainbow surged up from a pile of rubble.

At this moment, Shen Mo looked somewhat disheveled, his clothes untidy and his hair messy, but that was all. The moment he was struck by the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower, the Nine-Extreme Crystal Sand Energy that surged from his Chakra, along with the Auspicious Snow inner armor worn close to his body, had blocked most of the impact force for him!

The residual force was nothing before his demonically resilient vitality. Only his chest was slightly indented, and a few bones, including his ribs, showed cracks. However, they were quickly repaired by his blood essence primality.

Just as Shen Mo had underestimated the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower’s sturdiness, Yang Xuan had also underestimated Shen Mo’s physical resilience.

"What an impressive vitality!"

"Could it be that the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body he practices is several levels higher than our Riverside Sect’s Heavenly Fire Body Refining Mantra?"

Among the high-ranking members of the sect observing the battle, a core disciple couldn’t help but exclaim. Due to the establishment of the Bloody Fiend Sect, the sect’s upper echelons already knew that Shen Mo cultivated the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body, an external magic not belonging to the Riverside Sect.

After evaluation by the Keeper Elder of the Magic Tower, the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body was classified as a low-grade spiritual level cultivation method! The Riverside Sect’s rather famous Heavenly Fire Body Refining Mantra wasn’t much different. This was only because this magic required the practitioner to treat their Dao Body as an Artifact Embryo. They had to supplement it with specially made spiritual medicine, consume ores and spirit gold, and even use Earth Fire Spirit Flame to temper their body. It was far more extreme than other body refinement cultivation methods. That was why it was classified as a top-grade profound level magic; in terms of cultivation effects, it was not weaker than a low-grade spiritual cultivation method!

But now, seeing Shen Mo struck by the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower to such an extent, yet still getting up full of vigor, it inevitably made people doubt the grade of the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body!

When Shen Mo established the Bloody Fiend Sect, he had disseminated the cultivation method for this technique. Currently, alongside many cultivation methods obtained from the evil cultivators of the Wando Archipelago, it had been added to the Magic Tower’s collection. For this, Shen Mo had also received an astonishing amount of Sect Merit Points. Disciples of the Bloody Fiend Sect, provided they had enough Sect Merit Points and Spirit Stones, could exchange them for this cultivation method at the Magic Tower.

If the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body is truly that powerful... never mind the core disciples; even the Hall Masters and the three Peak Masters would likely be tempted to exchange for this cultivation method from the Magic Tower!

"It shouldn’t be that simple!" Zhou Shili, the Peak Master of Stars Peak, said slowly, stroking his beard. "You all mustn’t forget that Shen Mo is extremely adept at diligently studying magic and martial arts."

"Any cultivation method in his hands can reach an extremely high level in a short time!"

"He received the ’Constellation Great Hand Seal’ that I passed on to him only a few years ago. Yet, the power of the hand seals he executes now is not weaker than mine... Only by relying on the purity and vastness of my True Yuan can I slightly surpass him. When it comes to the sophistication of the technique alone, I am far inferior to him!"

"Therefore, he must have cultivated the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body, or some other external magic, to an extremely high level to possess such astonishing vitality."

"It cannot be simply assumed that the grade of that magic is high and its effects are outstanding!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. But a thought still sprouted in their hearts to exchange for the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body from the Magic Tower; after all, among the many external magics in the sect, this cultivation method could be considered outstanding.

While the onlookers here were clicking their tongues in amazement, the battle on the other side grew even more intense.

Seeing Shen Mo emerge without even a bruise, Yang Xuan no longer dared to clash head-on with him using the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower. Having cultivated for decades, he possessed many powerful magic and martial arts techniques. Now, he unleashed them consecutively, creating a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering spectacle of immense momentum!

Shen Mo, naturally, was no less formidable. Just as Zhou Shili had revealed, his Cultivation Realm and years of cultivation were inferior to Yang Xuan’s. His terrifying combat power, comparable to the peak Spirit Sea Realm experts of major immortal sects, relied on his incomparably potent vitality and his profound, unfathomable attainments in cultivation methods.

BOOM!

RUMBLE!

During their fierce battle, vast mountain ranges and valleys were obliterated. The nature’s spiritual energy vibrated ceaselessly. The spirit light from magic, sword Qi, and magic treasures even overshadowed the sun’s brilliance. The astonishing commotion spread for hundreds of miles around...

At this moment, Yang Xuan, though weaponless, had summoned three golden-armored warriors to guard his sides. In truth, he was also very proficient in the Sword Path and possessed a low-grade spiritual level Flying Sword. But he knew that competing with Shen Mo in the Sword Path would undoubtedly be attacking the enemy’s strength with his own weakness, so he simply abandoned it and fought with other methods. Only his Yuanci Sword remained, circling and flying to protect his Dao Body, preventing any injury from the Ruyi Soul Stealing Needle!

After all, he wasn’t like Shen Mo, who possessed three heads and six arms, allowing him to execute various maneuvers without interference! Being too diverse and complex would instead affect his ability to cast spells and engage the enemy.

CLANG!

At this moment, another resplendently dazzling Demon Slaying Sword Qi slashed towards him.

Yang Xuan wanted to resort to his old trick, urging the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower to dissipate this sword Qi... But as he formed the seal, he was shocked to find that he couldn’t control the pagoda smoothly!

Only after communicating with the Tower Spirit via his Divine Sense did he learn the crux of the problem.

Inside the pagoda, at some unknown time, a sinister, eerie skull had slipped in through the gash left by the sword mark. Logically, the tower body was to the Tower Spirit as a Dao Body was to a cultivator. If a foreign object, even one as minuscule as an insect, were to enter, it would be impossible not to know. However, the gash previously cut into the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower by Shen Mo was like a hideous wound on a cultivator’s body. This inevitably caused an unusual and uncomfortable sensation, thereby clouding the Tower Spirit’s perception...

At this instant, the skull suddenly attacked, biting one of the nine Demonic Qis. This caused the pagoda’s core to be damaged, rendering it unable to exert its divine might to deconstruct sword Qi, magic, and other non-physical attacks!

At this moment, the Demon Slaying Sword Qi was almost upon him, and Yang Xuan had no time for detailed thought. His mind made up, he commanded the three golden-armored warriors beside him to raise their shields and meet the attack. Simultaneously, he retrieved several defensive talismans from his sleeve and activated their power.

PU!

PU!

PU!

Without the Nine Yuans Illusionary Tower to wear down and deconstruct the offensive, Yang Xuan finally experienced just how terrifying Shen Mo’s sword Qi was! The three warriors, despite their astonishing defenses, didn’t last even half a breath before being successively sliced into plumes of light. And the defensive talismans he had deployed, though as high as Grade V, still couldn’t withstand the might of the Demon Slaying Sword Qi; they were utterly obliterated in the blink of an eye.

PU!

A flash of Sword Light struck Yang Xuan directly in the chest.
