Chapter 1042: Chapter 1041: The Secret of Crossing Between Two Worlds Has Been Discovered
"What kind of idiotic death!"
The divine soul fluctuations of the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor were weak yet steady, "Ancestor’s just returning, if you want to kill me, you’ll have to cultivate for billions of years."
Si Lingxi snorted coldly, remaining unconcerned, focused only on using the Firebird to attack the formless desires.
The Old Fiend exerted all his strength to drive the formless desires to escape beyond emptiness, but the Phoenix Divine Fire blocked them completely, burning them to ashes between form and formlessness, dissipating into the void.
The core True Spirit Divine Thought of the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor hid within the formless desires, escaping with nowhere to run, finally transforming into a pure formless wave, rushing into Si Lingxi’s divine soul.
"Ancestor admits defeat this time, but I’ve also left you a memo... huh?"
The formless desire wave, carrying the core True Spirit of the Old Fiend, was much more sensitive than before. Although its hard power was weak, it carried a slight sense of Upper Realm Celestial Demon’s divine techniques.
Thus, the Old Fiend unexpectedly discovered Si Lingxi’s secret.
"Otherworldly aura?"
The Old Fiend’s voice, filled with extreme surprise, echoed in Si Lingxi’s mind, "You can actually cross chaos, traverse the void, and enter the otherworld in your true form?"
Si Lingxi’s eyes flashed, the Phoenix Divine Fire suddenly intensified, the golden phoenix on the jade token in her hand turned extremely dazzling.
"Boom!"
Divine Fire surged skyward, eroding the demon thoughts.
"Hahaha!"
The Old Fiend’s demon thoughts fluctuated in the void, seeming very happy, his voice continued to echo in Si Lingxi’s mind.
"I see! I see!"
"No wonder you could escape the cage of Ancestor’s Six Desires Celestial Demon Realm last time, turns out you can traverse the otherworld in your true form?
Amazing, truly amazing!
Is it Chaos Divine Techniques? Or a Void Treasure? Or perhaps a Realm Divine Artifact?
To think that you, a mere Fire Phoenix with ten thousand years of Dao Practice, could have such an opportunity, rare, truly rare!"
The voice of the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor carried three parts joy, three parts excitement, three parts greed, and one part intense malice.
"Does this realm have gods and demons entering dreams, do celestial demons descend?
The aura is very unfamiliar, at least a domain Ancestor hasn’t discovered, hahaha, such a good thing, truly a good thing!
Si Lingxi, Fire Phoenix, hahaha, let me tell you one bad news and one good news!
Hide your otherworldly aura well, don’t let the other old fellows discover it, you don’t think that the True Spirit Lower Realm’s celestial demon is just Ancestor, do you? Hahaha..."
The Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor laughed loudly, his laughter growing weaker amidst Si Lingxi’s full assault.
Then, as the last wisp of Phoenix Divine Fire extinguished the final wisp of formless desires, the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor’s last trace of divine thought and mark was finally completely erased from this world.
"Buzz!"
Lu Zheng, who was engaged in magical combat with the Double-Star Snake Couple, felt his mind clear, as rays of Light of Fortune swirled into the Jade Seal.
Though the Old Fiend only had a few thousand years of Daoist Cultivation, his origin was Upper Realm Celestial Demon, so his life in this world had quite a bit of fortune.
Lu Zheng sensed the flood of thousands of rays of Light of Fortune flowing in and couldn’t help but snap his fingers, "This time, the Old Fiend’s truly dead!"
Si Lingxi nodded, but her expression wasn’t relaxed, as she looked at the Double-Star Snake Couple entangled by Lu Zheng, she gestured, and endless Phoenix Divine Fire surged forward.
The Double-Star Snake Couple’s expressions changed drastically, demonic Qi surged from their bodies, as they desperately struggled to escape Lu Zheng and attempted to flee.
Unfortunately, their cultivation was too weak, similar to the Snow Robe Princess, although they could endure the power of the Phoenix Divine Fire for a while, attempting to escape was overly ambitious.
The Phoenix Divine Fire was overwhelmingly powerful, especially against opponents with a large gap in Dao Practice, particularly when their nemesis was Divine Fire, resolving battles swiftly.
The duo’s demonic Qi was quickly exhausted, their demon power barely lasted moments, before breaths later it was invaded by Divine Fire.
"Demonic Qi corroding the body, can’t consume it." Si Lingxi shook her head indifferently, flames briefly flashed between her eyes.
"Boom!"
The two Double-Star Snakes were turned to ashes and powder in the flames.
"Buzz!"
A little over a thousand rays of Light of Fortune were accounted for, not even comparable to the Stone Ghost Lu Zheng slew days ago.
Fortune is truly metaphysical.
...
After dispersing the Phoenix Divine Fire, wisps of demonic Qi remained in the air, but the entire Ten Thousand Stars Creek realm had become a hellish landscape.
Every life form within a hundred miles had perished, leaving only a hundred path-practiced ones, retaining a flicker of life.
Si Lingxi glanced over, with a wave, dozens of Double-Star Snakes entered demonhood, engulfed in raging flames, dying amidst their pitiful screams, transforming to light smoke.
All that remained were seven or eight Double-Star Snakes with middling cultivation, along with a dozen other seasoned serpents, revealing their forms, shrinking in terror, closing their eyes and mouths, restraining their demon Qi, not daring to look to the sky.
Lu Zheng clicked his tongue, witnessing devastation.
"Should we clean up?" Lu Zheng approached Si Lingxi.
"No need." Si Lingxi shook her head, "Those who are alert will know what happened here."
"Then shall we go?" Lu Zheng patted Si Lingxi’s arm, wrapping his arm around Si Lingxi’s slender waist, "What’s on your mind? The Old Fiend’s definitely dead."
If he wasn’t dead, Lu Zheng wouldn’t have received that much Light of Fortune.
Si Lingxi lightly frowned, hearing that, she nodded, "Let’s talk while we walk."
"Something happened?" Lu Zheng asked curiously.
Si Lingxi shook her head, "Not immediately."
Si Lingxi and Lu Zheng flew southward, Lu Zheng asked, then waved his hand to release Shen Ying and the Liu sisters, Qingyan and Qingquan.
As the three women emerged and assessed their surroundings, they collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Qingquan, most spirited, jumped to Lu Zheng’s side, "Brother-in-law! Did you defeat, no, kill the Old Fiend?"
Lu Zheng laughed heartily, rubbing Liu Qingquan’s little head, "That was an Upper Realm Celestial Demon, how could we kill it? But, your Sister Lingxi did vanquish its lower realm True Spirit, now we don’t have to worry about the Old Fiend anymore."
The descent of Upper Realm Celestial Demon True Spirit isn’t easy, it consumes a lot of resources, having driven it away this time and thwarted it greatly, another descent would take a long time.
Based on Great Jing’s and even Blue Star’s myths and legends, there’s no mention of immortals frequently reincarnating their True Spirit.
"Not necessarily." Si Lingxi said calmly.
"Hmm?" Everyone looked at Si Lingxi.
Lu Zheng furrowed his brows, reached out to hold Si Lingxi’s hand, "You’ve been troubled, what happened?"
Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying gathered around, confused and concerned.
Si Lingxi pointed at Liu Qingquan, who flipped and fell asleep, then looked at Lu Zheng with some guilt, "At the last moment, the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor discovered I could traverse two realms."
