Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog
Chapter 258 The Nine-Day Child-Slaying General, Mars Falls
The Golden-Winged Roc felt a deadly crisis looming over him.
The aura of the Great Sun Palace Master was scorching, domineering, and filled with ferocity, making him even more terrifying than Cao Tiangang and the other two combined.
"Golden-winged Roc, your Phoenix Clan has seized my ancestral land of the Fire God Palace."
"Today, I, the Lord of this Palace, have breached the Undying Palace and will take your life as a sacrifice to the ancestors of my Fire God Palace."
Before he finished speaking, he manifested as a demon god carrying an ancient longbow and slowly drew back the bowstring.
"laugh!"
A golden arrow, condensed to its finest, as thin as a hair yet as dazzling as the midday sun, shot out.
Wherever the arrow passed, space was easily melted through, leaving a black scorch mark that could not heal for a long time. Its speed was so fast that it could not be detected by divine sense, and it was aimed directly at the brow of the Golden-Winged Roc.
The golden-winged roc's feathers bristled, unleashing its full potential in the face of life-or-death crisis.
He let out a sharp cry, and countless golden heart-shaped runes lit up on his wings, slashing like celestial blades.
"puff!"
The arrow collided with the wings of the Golden-Winged Roc, producing only a slight piercing sound.
Those golden wings, powerful enough to tear the sky apart, were easily pierced by that arrow. Although most of its power was neutralized, the remaining arrow light still grazed his neck, leaving a charred, deep wound that exposed bone.
Golden blood gushed out like lava, making a hissing, burning sound.
He was wounded again by an arrow.
The golden-winged roc cried out in pain, its eyes filled with fear.
He had been seriously injured by the Great Sun Palace Master's arrow when he was caught off guard before, and now, facing him head-on, he was still no match for him and was injured by his arrow again.
If a few more arrows were fired, he would definitely be unable to withstand them, not to mention that there were three rogue immortals eyeing him covetously.
"Great Sun Palace Master, Cao Tiangang! You dare to surround and kill me? Aren't you afraid that my brother will raze your Fire God Palace to the ground and exterminate your entire Cao family?!" The Golden-Winged Roc roared fiercely, but its heart was already set on retreating.
The Great Sun Palace Master said coldly, "Kong Lingxuan? He's probably too busy taking care of himself right now. If you're hoping to count on him, you'll be disappointed."
"Today, no one can save you."
He is meticulous in his work and will never act rashly without being absolutely certain of success.
Previously, I was worried about Kong Lingxuan's revenge, which is why I hesitated to kill the Golden-Winged Roc and destroy the Undying Palace.
But now that he's cooperating with the Cao family, and with the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General personally stopping Kong Lingxuan, he has no more scruples.
Cao Tiangang sneered, "Golden-Winged Roc, once you are dead, I will surely attain enlightenment. At that time, I will join forces with the Lord of the Great Sun Palace and the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General. Even if you are my elder brother, what can you do to me?"
The Golden-Winged Roc felt a chill run down its spine, knowing that its opponent had been plotting for a long time and would not give up because of threats.
As the Lord of the Great Sun Palace raised his hand again and slowly drew back the bowstring of the Heaven-Shaking Bow, Cao Tiangang and the other two took the opportunity to block all his escape routes...
At the critical moment of life and death, he no longer hesitated. He suddenly looked up to the sky and roared. It was not an ordinary cry, but a call that contained the supernatural power of his bloodline, pierced through the nine heavens, and reached the celestial palace.
"Brother, save me!"
In the heart of the Golden-Winged Roc, his elder brother was always someone he both respected and feared. He even harbored an unspeakable jealousy towards his brother, believing that he had overshadowed his own brilliance.
Yet, subconsciously, he harbored an unspeakable trust and reliance on his elder brother. Now, with his life hanging by a thread, he could no longer care about saving face and desperately called out to his brother.
The mournful cry soared into the sky, following the bloodline connection, and reached the high heavens.
The ancient bloodline originating from the phoenix within him trembled, especially the ancient star Yinghuo in the fifth heaven, whose blood-red starlight transformed into a banner, fluttering in the wind in the dark and cold universe.
This is a warning issued by his natal star, sending the most urgent and desperate distress signal to his elder brother, the Fire Star Lord Kong Lingxuan.
Above the nine heavens lies the Heavenly Court.
In the Heavenly Court stands a magnificent palace, bathed entirely in flames and celestial light, with an inscription on its plaque: "The Palace of the Fire Virtue Star Lord."
Inside the main hall, a deity dressed in a ceremonial robe and wearing a crown of flames, with a handsome face and an aura of majesty and heroism, sat on his throne, his eyes closed in a trance.
A faint five-colored radiance flowed around him, and a star floated and sank within the five-colored divine light. It was none other than Kong Lingxuan, the elder brother of the Golden-Winged Roc, the Great Sage of the Demon Clan, and the Fire Virtue Star Lord.
Suddenly, his brows furrowed sharply, and he abruptly opened his eyes. In those eyes, divine flames and five-colored light seemed to flash simultaneously, and a terrifying pressure that made the heavenly soldiers and generals standing in the hall suffocate flashed by.
Following the mysterious blood connection, he heard the mournful cry and plea for help from the Golden-Winged Roc.
"presumptuous!"
Kong Lingxuan slammed his fist on the table and stood up, the armrest of the throne instantly turning to dust. "You ignorant fool, how dare you try to kill my younger brother!"
"This is not my fault... Immortal Palace, Martial Virtue Star Lord, this time, I will make sure you all die without a burial place."
Without hesitation, he set off and stepped out of the Fire Virtue Star Lord's Mansion.
However, just as he stepped out of the mansion gate...
"Lord of Fire Virtue, what brings you in such a hurry?"
A calm, indifferent voice, yet carrying boundless killing intent and an iron will, came from outside the hall. The voice was not loud, but it seemed to carry the clanging sound of clashing swords and galloping horses, instantly spreading throughout the Star Palace.
A figure stood outside the palace gate, blocking the way.
The newcomer was nine feet tall, with a simple and resolute face. He was not wearing divine armor, but only a black close-fitting outfit, with a dark, blood-red cloak over it. His hair was casually draped, and his eyes were as sharp as the tips of blood-quenched spears. One look from him was enough to make people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave, and their souls would tremble.
This person had no dazzling divine light around him, only a terrifying killing intent that was condensed to the extreme, as if it could sever cause and effect and freeze the void. Behind him, a horrifying phenomenon of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, with all living beings wailing in agony, was faintly formed.
It was none other than the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General, who guarded a region of Heaven and controlled war and calamities, a figure renowned since ancient times, fearsome and awe-inspiring, who was currently seeking to break through to the Golden Immortal realm.
Kong Lingxuan's pupils contracted slightly, and his anger burned even more fiercely, but he forcibly suppressed it. "So it is the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General. My younger brother is in danger in the Southern Frontier and urgently needs to be rescued by the mortal realm. Please make way for me, General."
"I will definitely visit you in person to express my gratitude."
The Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General remained expressionless. "Fire Virtue Star Lord, I remember that you reached an agreement with the Great Crimson Heavenly Venerable to promote the separation of heaven and man. It was only because of this that the Great Crimson Heavenly Venerable overruled the objections of the crowd and bestowed upon you the position of Fire Virtue Star Lord."
"Now that you have received the Heavenly Court's decree, it would be against the rules to descend to the mortal realm so rashly."
"In my opinion, it would be best for you, Star Lord, to stay in your residence and cultivate peacefully, and observe how things unfold."
"Wait and see? That's my own brother!" Kong Lingxuan was furious, and five-colored divine light appeared around him. "Is the general going to stop me today?" The Nine Heavens Killing Child General took a step forward, and the killing intent that was like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood suddenly intensified tenfold, colliding fiercely with the divine power that Kong Lingxuan unleashed.
A silent roar exploded between the two great gods, and the entire Fire Virtue Star Lord's Palace shook violently. Some of the lower-level divine generals and servants in the palace groaned and turned pale.
"It's not to obstruct, but to remind the Star Lord not to make a mistake." The Nine Heavens Killing Child General's tone remained calm, but the coldness in his eyes was almost tangible. "The Martial Virtue Star Lord opposes the separation of heaven and man. If he were to descend to the mortal realm, it would be only natural."
"But you obtained the position of Fire Star Lord because you supported the separation of heaven and man. How can you disregard the heavenly rules and forcibly descend to the mortal realm for your own selfish reasons?"
"Of course, if you are willing to abandon your belief in the separation of heaven and man and join our camp, I will make way for you."
"Good, good, good, very good!" Kong Lingxuan laughed in anger. He finally understood that the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General in front of him obviously wanted to use his brother's life as a bargaining chip.
"The heavenly rule of separating the mortal and the divine has not yet been implemented, so you are all free to descend to the mortal realm, yet you insist on binding me?"
"Today, I, the sovereign, am determined to descend to the mortal realm. Let's see who dares to stop me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kong Lingxuan stopped wasting words. With a sway of his body, he transformed into a magnificent rainbow with five colors flowing within it, and was about to forcefully break through the Heavenly Gate and fall straight to the mortal realm.
"Stubborn fool!" General Nine Heavens Killing Child snorted coldly. Without any visible movement, the strange phenomenon of mountains of corpses and seas of blood behind him suddenly expanded, transforming into a Taoist temple.
Within the sacred space, countless spirits wailed, and the clash of weapons echoed. An endless, murderous intent materialized into swords, spears, halberds, chariots, and iron cavalry, sweeping towards the rainbow formed by Kong Lingxuan.
At the same time, a jet-black spear, wreathed in blood-red light, appeared in his hand and lunged straight at Kong Lingxuan.
"General Nine Heavens Child Slayer, do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
Kong Lingxuan let out a long roar, and five dazzling divine lights of blue, yellow, red, white and black burst forth from behind him! With a gentle sweep of the divine lights, the sweeping killing weapons, chariots and iron cavalry were dissolved and disintegrated like dust meeting water.
The five-colored divine light can sweep away anything, and is especially effective against all kinds of magical treasures, supernatural powers, and magical abilities!
However, the Daoist temple of the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General was not a physical magic weapon, but a manifestation of his Great Dao. When one wave was dispersed, more immediately emerged, endlessly and infinitely.
He himself was extremely fierce, wielding a long spear and attacking. Every move he made contained terrifying power that could destroy stars and sever cause and effect, and he directly confronted the five-colored divine light.
The two celestial deities clashed fiercely in front of the Fire Virtue Star Lord's residence.
Five-colored divine light swept across the area, dazzling and scattering the strange phenomena of war.
The killing intent of the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General was as solid as a substance, his spear shattering the void and constantly colliding with and annihilating the divine light.
The aftershocks of the battle were far more terrifying than those of the wandering immortals and demon saints of the lower realm. If it weren't for the powerful restrictions protecting the Fire Virtue Star Lord's Palace, and the fact that the Heavenly Court itself was the transformed Daoist temple of an ancient great power, the entire Heavenly Realm would probably have been riddled with holes.
Even so, the intense clash of magical powers and the Great Dao still attracted the attention of many in the Heavenly Court.
Kong Lingxuan was frantic with worry. His younger brother's cries for help were growing weaker and weaker, his life hanging by a thread. His attacks became increasingly ferocious, the five-colored divine light almost forming a sea of light as he tried to force his way through.
However, the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General was like a leech, his dojo was ever-growing and incredibly resilient, and his combat experience was rich and seasoned. He sought no merit but only to avoid mistakes, thus holding Kong Lingxuan back tightly and making it difficult for him to escape.
"Ah! Nine Heavens Killer! If anything happens to my brother, I, Kong Lingxuan, will fight you to the death!" Kong Lingxuan roared in extreme anger, but no matter how fierce his attack was, he could not get rid of the entanglement of this ancient killing god for a while.
Time is passing by, second by second.
Meanwhile, in the lower realm of Qiyun Mountain in the Southern Frontier, the Golden-Winged Roc's situation is already precarious.
After the Golden-Winged Roc let out a long cry for help, its aura visibly weakened. However, its elder brother's response did not come immediately; instead, the Great Sun Palace Master's killing intent grew even colder, and Cao Tiangang and his two companions launched increasingly ruthless attacks.
"sucker Punch!"
When the Lord of the Great Sun Palace saw the Golden-Winged Roc calling for Kong Lingxuan, he worried that things might change if he delayed. His eyes flashed even colder, and he no longer held back.
His crimson cloak fluttered without wind, and fiery clouds surged behind him. The blurry yet incomparably majestic Dharma image drew back the Heaven-Shaking Bow, which opened like a full moon, gathering incomparably dazzling golden light, like a great sun rising.
hum!
A golden streak of extremely condensed light, tearing through the sky, locked onto the aura of the Golden-Winged Roc and crashed down.
Where the arrow passed, it left a dark scorch mark.
The Golden-Winged Roc felt an unprecedented threat of death. A hint of madness flashed in its eyes. Its massive body suddenly contracted and condensed, and its wings vibrated wildly, transforming into a golden rainbow as it fled towards the Heavenly Court in the heavens above.
Anyone who trespasses into the Heavenly Court without authorization is guilty of a capital offense!
But if he could escape to the Heavenly Court and have his brother's protection, he might still have a glimmer of hope.
"Pfft!"
However, the sun-shooting arrow was too fast. Its light pierced through the void, froze time, locked in cause and effect, and was accompanied by an intense light that could not be described in words.
The world has lost all its color.
All the cultivators who were engaged in fierce battle were engulfed in a blinding white light and could no longer see anything.
All that could be heard was a hysterical, painful scream!
"Boom!!!"
High above, the ancient star Yinghuo, hanging in the fifth heaven, its blood-red starlight swaying like a flag, symbolizing war and disaster, suddenly trembled violently.
Then, it exploded with a deafening roar.
An arrow of light appeared out of nowhere, piercing through the five heavens, leaving a scorch mark like a scar in its wake, with a faint golden light burning in its tail flame as it slowly dissipated.
The ancient star Yinghuo was shot down by an arrow.
The ancient star exploded with a deafening roar, causing the heavens and earth to shatter. Crimson light filled the five heavens, and countless fragments of stars fell from the sky.
Compared to Tiandu Star, Yinghuo Ancient Star was a true ancient star in ancient times, and it still adorns the fifth heaven today. Its authority and laws play an extremely important role in the world.
As the ancient star Yinghuo fell, a terrifying energy storm spread in all directions, engulfing the five heavens and rushing straight down to the lower realm.
Wherever it passed, mountains were leveled, the earth was plowed, rivers were evaporated, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and all things wailed.
At the same time, a torrential downpour began, accompanied by crimson blood and the wailing of ghosts and spirits.
The demon saint who embodies the Earthly Fiends was known as the Fiend God in ancient times; while the demon saint who embodies the Heavenly Gangs was known as the Star God in ancient times.
Now, a star god has fallen!
Blood rained down from the sky, ghosts and gods wailed, and billions of star fragments streaked across the five heavens like meteors, falling towards the earth.
The blinding white light above Mount Qiyun gradually dissipated, and the Lord of the Great Sun Palace stood in mid-air, his crimson cloak fluttering in the wind, while the Dharma image behind him slowly faded away.
As far as he could see, the massive body of the Golden-Winged Roc was falling helplessly downwards.
Almost all of his feathers were charred and fell off, revealing equally charred flesh beneath; his wings were broken and twisted in an unnatural position; there was a shocking, huge, charred wound on his neck that almost severed his head...
Those golden eyes that once looked down upon the world have now lost all their color...
The legendary demon saint, the Golden-Winged Roc, renowned for his speed and ferocity as he roamed the southern border, has fallen! (End of Chapter)
