Immortality from Taming Elephant

Chapter 669 - 294:

In a coral forest filled with giant sea anemones and glowing jellyfish, Xu Guang encountered an "Illusory Sound Demon Toad" skilled in sonic attacks."Ribbit——!"

The demon toad pumped its cheeks, emitting an invisible sonic wave aiming to shatter Xu Guang’s Divine Soul and distort his five senses.

"Forget!"

Invisible ripples undulated around Xu Guang, and the sonic waves, enough to confuse Divine Souls of the same level, felt as if they were sinking into a quagmire as they neared him, with their power greatly reduced, unable to shake his mind hardened through countless trials.

In the next moment, the Fire Emperor’s form manifested, and the blood-colored Red Lotus Karmic Fire transformed into a thin line, piercing through the demon toad’s massive body with ease. It not only burnt its physical form but also, following the backlash of its sonic divine technique, directly incinerated its soul source.

The demon toad’s miserable cries abruptly ceased, its massive body quickly turning to ashes in the Karmic Fire, leaving only behind a demon core containing pure Sound Wave Law fragments and a wisp of unique soul essence, which was swallowed by a blood-red sun in an instant.

Elsewhere in a deep sea trench, Xu Guang set his sights on a "Profound Rock Giant Crab" with astonishing defensive capabilities.

Realizing something was amiss, the giant crab demon immediately withdrew into its shell, comparable to divine metal, infusing demonic power into it, causing the runes on the shell to flicker and form an impenetrable barrier.

Xu Guang remained expressionless, with the Green Emperor’s form invoking the essence of destructive time, eroding the circulation of its demonic power and dulling the light of its defense runes.

The Black Emperor’s form manipulated the weighty seawater, turning it into countless spinning water blades that frantically cut and ground the hard shell.

Simultaneously, his true form operated the Residual Power Divine Technique, with his blood and Source Qi transforming into a massive blood-and-flesh grinding disc illusion suspended above the giant crab, slowly rotating, exuding a terrifying aura of devouring and crushing everything.

Under the sustained attrition of these three forces, the defense of the Profound Rock Giant Crab finally cracked.

Xu Guang formed a knife-hand with his fingers, concentrating the essence of slaughter and the Fire Emperor’s origin, and with one strike, severed its vitality. The Residual Power grinding disc descended, grinding its corpse along with the demon core and the earth-based origin within its shell, absorbing it all.

As the number of slain demons increased, the Residual Power Divine Technique’s devouring and refining of various attributes of demonic power and Martial Dao essence became increasingly complex.

However, it seemed something was still missing from the condensation of the divine form.

Xu Guang wasn’t rushed, as the devoured Martial Dao essence influenced the Residual Power. The Five Emperors’ Survey of the Sky had already begun a small cycle.

His current power had more than tripled since his initial breakthrough to First Nirvana, but facing the Second Nirvana...

It’s still estimated to be very difficult.

Having cultivated the Residual Power Divine Technique to this extent, he decided to pause and first focus on condensing the Martial Dao essence for Training Soldiers.

This was also considered a complete Five Elements, with the five types of Martial Dao essence corresponding to each other, presumably of extraordinary nature.

...

In the depths of the Lost Sea, dozens of miles from the Abyss of Slumber, a massive demon resembling an insect was walking continuously against the infinite tornado gales rising from the depths of the Lost Sea.

The Abyss of Slumber is the most dangerous place in the entire Lost Sea, with terrifying tornado gales blowing continuously throughout the year.

After a long time.

The demon emerged from the tornado gales.

Transforming into a humanoid form, its body radiated golden light with dense scars spread across it like badges earned through a rigorous cultivation journey.

"Greetings to the White Tick Demon King."

The White Tick casually donned some clothes, glancing at the arriving demons.

"Any business? I don’t involve myself in your chaotic affairs."

The demons felt slightly awkward, then one First Nirvana demon spoke up, "We’ve heard that the White Tick Demon King sought a First Nirvana opponent before. Now in the Lost Sea, there is a human Martial Artist named Xu Guang, at First Nirvana cultivation, but with tremendous power, having successively slain Demon Kings like Zheng Li and Rong Kui..."

The White Tick Demon King’s eyes lit up, "He could kill Zheng Li and Rong Kui? How many moves did he take?"

The demons blushed, not knowing how to respond.

Just then, a sea fox demon rushed out from the coral thicket, landing on the White Tick Demon King’s shoulder.

"Demon King, that Xu Guang is indeed very strong and can act as your whetstone."

This sea fox demon was the very one that had previously appeared in the City Lord’s mansion.

It was a pet raised by the White Tick Demon King.

The White Tick Demon King grew very interested.

It was an alien species of white jade tick, having cultivated for many years, already reached the pinnacle of First Nirvana, just a half step away from Second Nirvana.

Deeply dedicated to body refining, it had tempered its own shell and flesh to the utmost, known as "a body imperishable, harder than Divine Weapons," and its defense was so formidable that it could resist attacks from a Second Nirvana demon king without defeat for a short time.

It possessed a talent divine technique called "Blood Measurement," allowing precise control over its blood, burning and compressing it in an instant to unleash an astonishing power and defense far beyond normal, making it a comprehensive offense and defense.

It was not a Second Nirvana demon king, but its status in the eyes of some lower-level demons was even more fearsome than that of a Second Nirvana demon.

Because when it first arrived at the Lost Sea, it was also immensely arrogant, having killed countless demons and human Cultivators.

...

On a small, ancient island where not a blade of grass grew, there were only cold rocks and solidified lava, with a faint sulfurous smell in the air.

Xu Guang sensed the change in the surrounding air and spread his divine thought with a frown.

Looking closely, he saw a massive figure sitting cross-legged on a high ground in the center of the island.

Its presence was utterly void of breath, resembling a giant stone.

Xu Guang was about to speak when the figure suddenly opened its eyes.

It let out a mysterious laugh at him.

Then, its figure instantly vanished.

Boom!!!

The entire small island, as if unable to bear its weight, instantly sank several meters into the depths of the Lost Sea.

Xu Guang watched as a figure plummeted from the sky, crashing with explosive force onto the opposite end of the island, kicking up a cloud of dust. It was a humanoid demon about thirty feet tall, its body seemingly sculpted from white jade, with bulging muscles, streamlined and powerful lines, and skin that gleamed with a metallic luster. Its compound eyes were cold and merciless, while two antennae on the top of its head swayed slightly, locking onto Xu Guang’s aura.

"Xu Guang?" the voice of the White Tick Demon King was like clashing metal, carrying a heavy pressure.

Xu Guang’s gaze was solemn.

He’s felt an unprecedented pressure from this opponent, the pure strength of the physical body creating a sense of oppression even greater than the coercion of a Second Nirvana Demon King.

This was a fearsome opponent that had honed its physical form to the utmost.

"Who are you?"

"I am the White Tick. Remember this name and cherish the last glory of your life!"

As the White Tick Demon King’s words fell, it took a step forward; the black rock at its feet cracked instantly, but the massive body unleashed an astonishing speed incongruent with its size, darting towards Xu Guang like a white lightning bolt.

It didn’t even use any flashy divine techniques, just a simple punch.

Wherever the wind of the fist passed, the air was compressed to the extreme, producing a piercing explosion. The power contained within the fist was as if it could punch through mountains!

Xu Guang didn’t dare to be complacent, as the three great forms of the Green Emperor, Black Emperor, and Fire Emperor instantly manifested, circling around him.

"Green Emperor Holds the Year!"

"Black Emperor Commands the Waters!"

"Fire Emperor Burns the Sky!"

The essence of destructive time weakened its punching force, chains of profound ice attempted to bind and restrain, and the Red Lotus Karmic Fire tried to scorch its punch.

However, the fist of the White Tick Demon King, with its immense power, crushed everything tenfold!

The vast blood energy and the terrifying power augmented by the "Blood Measurement" divine technique shattered the chains of profound ice, dispersed the Karmic Fire, and even the essence of destructive time was temporarily resisted by its overwhelming life force and strong physical body.

Boom!!!

Xu Guang, employing the Residual Power Divine Technique to withstand the punch, felt his body tremble violently. The rock under his feet exploded into a giant pit, and he slid back several dozen feet, feeling a sweet taste in his throat as a trace of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

"Such powerful strength!" Xu Guang was deeply alarmed in his heart.

His face changed slightly, filled with astonishment.

This was the first time since his breakthrough to First Nirvana that he was injured facing an opponent of the same realm. Although the injury wasn’t severe, he was nonetheless shocked.

Xu Guang pushed his body technique to the limit, combining the Residual Rain Divine Power with the essence of forgetting, ducking and dodging in the blink of an eye. At the same time, the three great forms continually unleashed attacks, trying to identify the White Tick Demon King’s weak spots.

The whole being seemed ethereal and elusive.

From a distance, the White Tick Demon King seemed to be fighting an invisible opponent.

The battle quickly ravaged the small island.

A body comparable to a Second Nirvana Divine Soldier.

Xu Guang came to a conclusion in his heart; this guy...

Just how did it cultivate?
