I attained immortality in the real world.

Chapter 140 Lord of the Underworld
Liangjiang City, Tiandu Secret Realm.

Wang Tianzhong sat cross-legged beneath the jade seal, wisps of black energy hanging down like a canopy.

He suddenly awoke from his coma, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and collapsed to the ground, his life force gradually weakening.

Qu Ling stepped forward to examine it, shook her head, and said, "It looks like a withered white silkworm, there's no saving it!"

"The enemy is on another level, using attacks that are beyond our comprehension, bypassing distance limitations to strike him."

"In the descent state, both the character and the soul are damaged simultaneously. This is the first time I've seen a method that affects reality. Humans are really fragile!"

Zhang Ding circulated his qi and blood, his muscles bulging, speechless with emotion: "We lost! I stood guard for days without even seeing the enemy. Now I know what it means to hate the heavens for having no handle and the earth for having no ring. I'd rather be bitten to death by it."

Another cultivator scoffed, "Power? You need a stage to display it. Whether it's a martial arts contest or a dance competition, do you have a choice in the end?"

The ten cultivators gathered together, watching helplessly as Wang Tianzhong's life force grew weaker and weaker, but there was nothing they could do.

Nightmare Technique is an attack specifically targeting cultivators at a certain cultivation level.

Unless one's cultivation level reaches the second realm, there is absolutely no way to deal with the erosion of the Heavenly River's Weak Water.

To kill, one doesn't need to be superior in every aspect. As long as one has an edge in one area and uses it to one's advantage, there's a chance to kill the enemy. Cultivators happen to excel at this.
Wang Ye never logged into the world of cultivation until his character died.

"........."

Wang Ye chose to escape, abandoning his pawns and admitting defeat.

The cultivation realm of Heavenly Human Nature is inherently difficult to break through, let alone achieve a breakthrough in a short period of time.

Death is not necessarily a bad thing. As long as one ascends to immortality after death, one will naturally be able to sense the spiritual energy of the dragon vein and thus have a way to deal with it.

Firstly, there is no way to become an immortal; even if one dies, one cannot become a human immortal.

Furthermore, after becoming a human immortal, fighting for dragons becomes meaningless. To risk one's life for a mere breath is an exaggeration of one's temperament.

【drop! 】

At the moment of Wang Tianzhong's death, the intelligent sprite captured the scene and projected it.

Wang Ye was recuperating in a nutrient pod. Although he had been affected by the Nightmare Technique, which had left him in extremely poor physical condition, he was still alive, so it wasn't a big problem.

Living people, unlike the spirits who have sunk in the River of Oblivion, have physical bodies that nourish their souls. As long as they are not dead, they can recover soon.

As Wang Ye watched Wang Tianzhong die, he weakly murmured, "I lost! Was I the Celestial? A more perfect being, a superior new human!"

The Moon Palace Biological Laboratory has already prepared the necessary equipment for a breakthrough in the second realm of cultivation. Failure does not pose a risk of death; at most, one will just become mentally ill.

Taking this near-death experience as an opportunity to break through to the second realm would undoubtedly be the best choice, but Wang Ye hesitated for only a moment and never had the courage to take that step.

Wang Bulu shook his head: "Facts have proven that your arrogance is worthless. Go and conduct the mortal transformation experiment!"

"Cultivators are pioneers of evolution. Only when you successfully transform into a mortal can you fully implement genetic optimization for newborn infants."

Are humans and celestial beings more perfect? ​​Perhaps!
The way of Heaven is to take from those who have more than enough and give to those who have less than enough; the way of man is to take from those who have less than enough and give to those who have more than enough.

Some of humanity's precious qualities arise precisely from its inadequacy, and the perfection of humanity and nature is itself a deficiency.

"........."

The cultivation world, the fifth day.

As usual, Yuan Qi kowtowed to the altar, drawing upon the spiritual energy of the Heavenly Capital Yin Vein to nourish it. In the instant of his kowtow, the straw figure transformed into the likeness of Wang Tianzhong.

With a "crack," the straw figure on the altar shattered into several pieces.

Yuan Qi patted his knees, stood up, and exclaimed with delight, "It's done!"

Chen Jing wasn't too surprised and nodded, saying, "It's all thanks to you, sir, that we were able to easily eliminate this formidable enemy."

Wang Tianzhong was meticulous and cautious, leaving no room for error in his actions, but this was only in his perception. Arriving at the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm three days late gave Chen Jing ample time to prepare; this was the opportune moment.

The Heavenly Capital Secret Realm is sparsely populated, making it easy to find pseudo-heavenly souls. Furthermore, the dragon vein can be used to complete the Nightmare Technique, which is an advantage of the terrain.

Having a half-immortal at one's disposal, and with the enemy only at the same realm, one can use the advantage of one's realm to attack the enemy's lack of what one possesses; this is harmony between people.

Originally, I didn't intend to use the Seven Arrows of Nailhead, but the right time, place, and people all came together.

But it's like a ball landing at your feet, with a goal not far away; who can resist kicking it?

It's no pity!
The difference between a warlock and a cultivator is that a warlock can only use fixed skills.

However, cultivators can develop the techniques they want based on their needs, the environment, and different enemies.

"........."

They set up an altar and erected a straw figure, breaking down all the steps of the Nightmare Spell.

Yuan Qi knew perfectly well that what he was doing was simply following orders and utilizing the abilities that all the gods and spirits of the state possessed.

He quickly declined, saying, "I dare not take credit. I merely bowed to the straw figure."

Chen Jing threw away the broken straw figure on the altar, picked up the Emperor's Banner, and said, "Mr. Yuan, there is no need to be so modest. When the Heavenly Capital Underworld Dynasty is newly established, there will surely be a place for you."

"Woo!"

Chen Jing waved the Emperor's Banner in his hand.

The black mist in the sky transformed into a terrifying vortex, causing the entire underworld to tremble violently.

An unclaimed jade seal transformed into a stream of light and landed on the Emperor's Banner, instantly swallowing the Mingtan Land Seal and imprinting it as an imperial seal pattern on the banner surface.

The jade seal and the Emperor's banner, now combined into one, complete the artifact of the underworld!

Without any further resistance, the underworld easily completed the refining process, and the jade seal, having completed its final corner, was completely transformed into an ink seal.

【Name: Emperor's Banner】

[Note: The holder of this banner may become the ruler of the Heavenly Capital and the Underworld.]

The Lord of the Underworld resides within his own realm, possessing authority akin to that of a Taoist temple. Within his jurisdiction, he can freely enter and exit secret realms, refine divine seals, pardon and seal underworld soldiers, and summon...

Chen Jing's consciousness merged into the Emperor's Banner, and the entire Heavenly Capital Secret Realm was displayed before his eyes, just like activating the divine seal of Mingtan Village and overlooking the entire village.

Having located Wang Tianzhong and the others, he teleported to the coordinates, glanced at the lifeless corpse, and asked, "Is he dead?"

Chen Jing was not asking about the character Wang Tianzhong, but about Wang Ye, whose consciousness had descended, as the Nightmare Technique directly targets consciousness.

When a character dies, the player may die, suffer severe damage to their health, or remain unaffected.

Seeing Chen Jing appear out of nowhere, Zhang Ding had no desire to fight him physically.

He shook his head and replied, "No, he didn't log into the cultivation world today, so he must have already noticed."

If people die, it's better to kill all ten of them as well. Although it will only consume some resources, it will still weaken the enemy.

If nothing is wrong, it's just a struggle within the rules; there's no need to act like a villain.

Chen Jing took out the Emperor's Banner and said, "Then I will see you all off. Consider it a case of becoming friends through a fight."

"Woo!"

Chen Jing waved the Human Emperor Banner, and a black hole appeared before him. The ten people were instantly swallowed by the black hole and teleported out of the underworld.

After doing all this, Chen Jing teleported once again to the very center of the Underworld, gazing at a celestial gate leading to the unknown.
