Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 274 The remains of the demon saint?

When the golden dragon that seemed to have existed since ancient times fell down, its huge body like a mountain collapsed between heaven and earth. For a moment, the void was shattered inch by inch, and the rules of time and space seemed to be wantonly disturbed by a pair of invisible giant hands.

Thick chaotic fog gushed out from the cracks in the dragon's body. Wherever it went, the stars dimmed. The originally orderly energy of heaven and earth surged like a boiling torrent.

The whole world seemed to be dragged into an endless abyss, and the feeling of collapse was like a surging wave, sweeping over the sky and the earth.

In this doomsday-like scene, the light curtain carrying the mysterious image completely disappeared like a candle in the wind.

Jiang Yue was in the center of the chaos, and his five senses seemed to be wrapped in thick fog. As the dragon's body collapsed and the image disappeared, the restraints gradually loosened.

At first, a faint breeze brushed his cheek lightly, bringing a breath of air from the outside world.

Then, a ray of light penetrated the layers of chaos and first came into his eyes. His five senses finally recovered and he could see clearly.

As soon as he entered this place, Jiang Yue immediately realized that this world seemed to be completely isolated from the outside world by an invisible and mysterious barrier. However, when he looked around, the scene in front of him surprised him greatly. The mountains, rivers, and plants were exactly the same as those in the outside world.

Looking up, I saw a blazing sun slowly rising from the edge of the distant sky.

In an instant, thousands of golden lights pierced through the morning mist like sharp swords and spread in all directions.

The light of the sun is dazzling and bright. In the core, there seem to be countless light elves jumping happily and interweaving with each other, releasing endless light and heat, illuminating the entire world as bright as day, and making all things in the world covered with a layer of dazzling golden gauze, clearly outlining every detail.

As the sun rises and sets, day and night become distinct.

Looking down again, everything in the world is running in an orderly manner according to the established trajectory and rhythm.

The river rushes endlessly, the clear water hits the rocks on the shore, splashing layers of white water, making pleasant gurgling sounds, rushing all the way to the distance, nourishing the flowers, plants and trees along the shore.

In the mountains and forests, the grass and trees grow and wither in an orderly manner. Under the caress of the warm spring sun, the tender green buds can't wait to poke their heads out from the branches. After autumn, the golden fallen leaves dance like colorful butterflies and fall leisurely.

Birds and beasts live and multiply in their respective territories. Birds fly freely in the sky, and their clear chirping sounds pierce the sky. Wild beasts hunt through the mountains and forests, and their every move shows their agility and strength.

Whether it is a tiny ant or a huge beast, their survival, reproduction and death all follow the eternal laws of nature. Everything seems so real, vivid and harmonious.

It seems as if this is a complete and independent little world, quietly interpreting the miracles of life and the mysteries of nature in this isolated place.

Without fog blocking the way and obstructing the road to heaven, the mysteries of the Immortal Ruins are revealed before our eyes.

Before my eyes, I saw seven towering palaces rising from the ground, and their vast momentum soared into the sky.

Each hall is more than ten thousand feet high. The hall body is built of mysterious huge stones emitting faint light, with runes flashing on the stones. At the top of the hall, fairy clouds are lingering and fairy music is rising, as if countless spirits are shuttling and playing in it.

What is even more amazing is that the majestic Taoism burst out from the hall, like invisible yet powerful forces, impacting Jiang Yue's soul.

This meaning is sometimes like a towering mountain, which makes people awe-inspiring; sometimes like a gurgling stream, which makes people think deeply.

Every trace of Taoism contains the ultimate truth of heaven and earth and is related to the operation of all things.

“This place is so vast!”

Jiang Yue couldn't help but let out a slight exclamation in his heart, his eyes full of shock.

Before this, even though he had many imaginations about the location of this hall, he could never have imagined that inside this seemingly mysterious, closed and narrow Xianshenxu, there was actually another world hidden, containing such a vast space.

The scene before my eyes was completely different from what I had seen from the outside, as if they were two completely different worlds.

Perhaps it was because he successfully passed through the dangerous and mysterious sky road that Jiang Yue's perception seemed to have undergone a wonderful transformation, causing his current perspective to be very different from before.

At this moment, standing in this strange world, he seemed to have a pair of spiritual eyes that could penetrate everything, and almost nothing could block his observation.

The mountains and rivers, the direction of spiritual energy, the spiritual plants and monsters hidden in the dark were all clearly reflected in his perception.

As the first person to successfully walk the Heavenly Road, Jiang Yue knew that he was shouldering the heavy responsibility of exploring this unknown world and became the only explorer of this mysterious place.

With a strong curiosity and awe of the unknown, he took a step forward.

In an instant, the blood in his body surged, and his figure instantly crossed hundreds of feet like a stream of light. His speed was many times faster than when he was on the Heavenly Road.

The wind whistled in his ears and the scenery in front of him flashed by like a slide show. He was like a messenger who cut through the void and shuttled through this mysterious fairyland.

Soon, Jiang Yue arrived at a strange place, where he saw a huge skeleton lying quietly.

The skeleton's head was about a hundred feet in size, with a strange shape, and exuded an ancient and mysterious aura.

Its body is long and winding, about a thousand feet long. Although most of its scales have fallen off, one can still see how tough and huge it once was.

Looking closely, the skeleton actually looked like a snake corpse, but it was very different from the ordinary snakes we see. Every inch of its bones revealed a power and antiquity beyond imagination. I wonder how terrifying its strength was when it was alive.

"This is..." Jiang Yue stared at the huge skeleton in front of him, his lips slightly parted, muttering to himself, his voice full of disbelief.

"A holy body?"

"No, it seems to be a little worse than what I have encountered before..."

This thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and his eyes instantly became as sharp as an eagle, staring at the skeleton tightly.

Since his practice, Jiang Yue has become extremely sensitive to powerful auras. He is not completely unfamiliar with the unique pressure of the Ninth Realm Demon Saint. In the past, he was fortunate enough to come into contact with the Demon Saint's eyes by chance. The tremendous feeling of oppression from the top strong man is still unforgettable to him.

"With such terrifying strength, he actually died here!"

Jiang Yue's heart suddenly shuddered, and the shock was like a surging wave, beating against his heart.

In the outside world, the Demon Saint has already stood at the pinnacle of power in the world, which is enough to create a terrifying force.

Now, the huge and complete remains before us show that even someone as powerful as the Demon Saint cannot escape the fate of falling.

Jiang Yue approached slowly and saw that the snake's flesh and blood were almost dried up, as if it had gone through endless years, leaving only a layer of dry skin and flesh clinging to the bones.

But its remaining scales and bones still emit bursts of mysterious glow, and each scale flashes with strange patterns, as if they are the remnants of ancient power. The textures on the bones also reveal a mysterious aura, which appears to be magical.

The eyes of the snake corpse are now empty, and the deep eye sockets seem to lead to an abyss of endless darkness.

Perhaps it was due to the ruthless erosion of the long years that these eyes, which once could see through the world, ultimately could not resist the erosion of time and were worn away and turned into nothingness.

Despite this, when Jiang Yue approached, an indescribable aura of horror hit him in the face.

It was a breath mixed with the remnants of death, decay and powerful force, which made his skin break out in goose bumps and the blood in his body unconsciously became slightly agitated.

Jiang Yue thought to himself that perhaps it was this terrifying aura that deterred other creatures around it, allowing the snake corpse to be preserved until now without being disturbed.

Although the saint is dead, he cannot be touched by ordinary creatures.

However, just when that aura was about to cause substantial harm, a layer of golden light quietly spread over Jiang Yue's body.

In an instant, the two poles reversed. The golden light was attached to the body, making it immune to all evil.

The golden light was like the rising sun, pure and hot. It seeped out from his pores and completely enveloped his body in an instant.

In an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, and the atmosphere between heaven and earth seemed to have reversed.

The demon saint's pressure, which was full of oppression and carried the breath of death and decay, instantly became dim under the reflection of this golden light.

The body is filled with golden light, like an indestructible sacred barrier that is immune to all evil.

The remaining aura of the snake corpse not only no longer posed a threat to Jiang Yue, but instead, as if it had encountered a natural enemy, it rushed madly into Jiang Yue's body.

This majestic aura was mixed with a vast amount of information, like a torrent, instantly rushing into Jiang Yue's sea of ​​consciousness.

Jiang Yue only felt a buzzing in his head. For a moment, he was a little dazed by the sudden huge amount of information and fell into deep thought involuntarily.

"It's not a divine seal, it should be because of my authority in this Immortal God Ruins..."

"No one can hurt me here."

At this moment, a mysterious image appeared in front of Jiang Yue's eyes again. However, this time it was completely different from the previous image, and the perspective had changed dramatically.

In the image, there is still that mysterious and terrifying road to heaven. The surrounding void is deep and dark, as if hiding endless dangers.

However, at this moment Jiang Yue was just a bystander in this video, and the real protagonist was a majestic snake demon.

The snake demon was majestic and exuded a fierce aura. It stepped on the void, and every step it took seemed to make the whole world tremble.

With a determined gaze, a desire for the unknown and the courage to explore, it struggled forward step by step towards the end of the Heavenly Road. Finally, after going through countless hardships and obstacles, it reached the end of the Heavenly Road, and then...

Seven magnificent halls of the Immortal Gods' Ruins suddenly appeared before the snake demon's eyes.

The main hall is magnificent, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura, as if it is the most sacred existence between heaven and earth.

Immediately afterwards, the snake demon also saw the initial image. The terrifying aura contained in the image instantly enveloped the snake demon.

The snake demon only felt an incomparable pressure coming towards him, as if his soul was about to be crushed by this breath, and his spirit was almost scattered.

At this critical moment, the snake demon used its magical powers.

I saw light flashing all over its body, and it began to shed its skin in an instant, and then fell into a state of suspended death.

It was precisely because of this magical power that the snake demon was able to survive the impact of that terrifying aura.

In the long years that followed, the snake demon continued to explore this mysterious land with his tenacious perseverance and persistence in exploring the unknown.

It wanted to get a glimpse of the secrets of this place and solve the many doubts in its heart. However, every time it approached the mysterious hall, it felt a deep fear in its heart and did not dare to approach it easily.

until…

In this land of immortal gods, there are extremely rich natural resources. Relying on the numerous rare spiritual objects produced here, the snake demon began to practice hard for hundreds of years.

It immerses itself in cultivation day and night, integrating the energy of heaven and earth into its body, and constantly tempering its body and soul.

After a hundred years of being crowned king, another three hundred years passed and the eight realms were completed!

Then, the snake demon, which had reached the edge of a breakthrough, once again turned its gaze toward the hall that exuded a mysterious and fairy-like aura.

A strong desire ignited in its heart, and it decided to use the mysterious and majestic power of the immortal rhythm in the hall to make a final breakthrough, trying to break the shackles and step into a higher level of holy realm.

The snake demon knew that this was a challenging attempt, so it carefully adjusted its own state and exerted all its demonic power to the extreme. Every scale on its body was shining brightly, as if it was accumulating its last strength.

It slowly approached the hall, and the rich fairy charm surged like a tide, completely enveloping its body.

Under the nourishment of the fairy charm, the snake demon only felt that his own power was constantly rising, as if he had touched the edge of the unreachable holy realm.

But this time, fate did not seem to favor it.

Although the snake demon tried its best and achieved perfection in all aspects, it still failed to get what it wanted in the end.

Under the impact of the powerful force, cracks began to appear on its body, scales fell off, and blood gushed out from the wounds.

Perhaps it was because when facing that initial image, the origin had already suffered severe damage, leaving behind hidden dangers that were difficult to repair.

Or perhaps there are some unknown limitations in this mysterious world that restrict its path to breakthrough.

Even though the snake demon possessed a strong will and amazing strength, it was unable to break through these obstacles.

However, the snake demon did not completely fail.

Over the long years, his body and essence, nurtured by the rich immortal charm of the Immortal God Ruins Hall and countless rare resources, had long reached a peak state that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve.

Even though it has not officially achieved the holy realm, it is undeniable that it has truly touched the edge of the sacred realm.

Perhaps it was precisely because of the deep foundation it had accumulated before that it was able to find a glimmer of hope in this thrilling breakthrough. Therefore, even if it failed at the last moment, it did not die.

In a sense, this great demon has already crossed the level of the holy realm, but has not yet completed the final proof.

A breakthrough to this level is often accompanied by huge risks. Once it fails, the soul will be scattered and the body will die. The current state of this snake demon is indeed very unique.

perhaps…

Can he be called a half-saint?

"This state does not exist in the records of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but it is appropriate to call it a semi-saint."

"This situation should only occur in the Immortal God Ruins. The final restriction cannot be overcome after all."

"If this snake demon breaks through in the outside world... maybe it will work."

Practicing cultivation is difficult, Jiang Yue has a deep understanding of this.

Various factors, various special conditions...will affect the final results.

However, for this snake demon, the benefits brought by the Immortal God Ruins ultimately outweigh the restrictions.

After all, if it were really in the outside world, without so many resources, it might not be possible to become a king.

Good fortune and misfortune are interdependent, cause and effect follow each other, it is a matter of time and luck.
