Chapter 878: Chapter 878: Failed Descent
"Puh! Puh!"
In the void, Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge simultaneously spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
The two exchanged glances, each seeing a glimpse of terror in the other’s eyes.
Indeed, with their current strength, they were almost considered the top existence in the current Cultivation Plane.
And yet, even with their combined efforts, they still couldn’t completely withstand the strike of that black claw.
What did this mean?
Doesn’t it suggest that the demon leader seated in the center of the array has already surpassed the realm of the Cultivation World?
True Immortal!
Almost simultaneously, the same thought emerged in the minds of Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge at this moment.
But how is that possible?
Even though neither had ascended yet, they had some basic knowledge of Immortals and understood that once a cultivator reached the True Immortal status, they couldn’t possibly remain in the Lower Realm.
This is an unchanging law of the heavens and earth, not altered by human factors unless...
Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge suddenly exchanged glances again, raising their hands to point overhead, exclaiming in shock, "Is there a problem up there?"
As soon as the words left their mouths, both had a flash of astonishment in their eyes.
If things were truly that way, then this matter might really be troublesome.
"Boom—"
Just then, from the distant sky where they stood, an extremely strong wave of Spiritual Energy erupted.
The wave was so formidable that even the void around Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge trembled violently.
A colossal storm, seemingly capable of end-of-the-world destruction, unexpectedly swept over thousands of miles, causing Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge’s eyes to narrow.
"That stance, could it be...? The Soul Summoning Array!"
The moment the words "Soul Summoning Array" came out, the faces of Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge changed dramatically.
Because they both realized that the Soul Summoning Array seemed to be a special array used to guide the descent of cultivators!
For such an array to appear in such a place at such a time, and with such violent energy fluctuations, could it mean that beings from the Upper Realm are about to descend?
Before Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge could understand these issues, a constantly twisting and rotating vortex suddenly appeared above the distant sky.
Shortly after, the vortex’s rotation speed increased, and in no time, an overwhelmingly strong aura began to spread violently.
Soon, a completely black, cold-glinting claw slowly extended out from the vortex.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
There was no mistake; the real purpose of this suddenly appearing Soul Summoning Array was to guide the arrival of an entity from the Upper Realm.
They mustn’t allow that Upper Realm entity to descend!
Almost simultaneously, the same thought emerged in the minds of Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge.
They exchanged another glance, and without any hesitation, the two figures transformed into streaks of light, rapidly rushing towards the direction of the Soul Summoning Array!
"Five Elements Break the Heavens, Mystical Gate, obliterate for me!"
Zhu Fei formed a Dharma Seal with his hands, shooting colorful array flags like raindrops towards the core of the Soul Summoning Array.
Meanwhile, Fatty Zhuge wielded a sword box, and as points of light and shadow burst forth, a swordsman in a long robe and bamboo hat suddenly appeared above those sword lights, pressing a hand on his sword hilt.
"Breaking Realm Sword!"
With a low shout from the swordsman in the bamboo hat, the hand on the sword hilt suddenly lifted.
With a clang, a dazzling brilliance burst from the tip of his sword.
The target of his attack was precisely that black claw!
"Puh—Boom—"
With the combined efforts of Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge, the Soul Summoning Array and the black claw protruding from the void shook violently.
With a crack, the Soul Summoning Array first showed cracks, and endless spirit light burst from it, evidently under great damage.
As for the black claw, under the sharp sword light, it shattered like cut-up wood chips, scattering a large area of flesh and blood.
Moreover, at that moment, the sword light did not stop, determined to completely obliterate it.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, an extremely furious roar came from the void above.
Then sparkling light flickered—a huge, dreamy spear shadow quickly spun towards Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge!
"Such audacity! Mere mortals dare to obstruct my descent. Go to hell!"
At that moment, Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge felt an invisible force binding them, unable to move, watching helplessly as the spear shadow drew nearer and nearer.
"Is this the so-called true Immortal Domain? But why does it feel incomplete?"
Zhu Fei suddenly looked up, staring intently at the breaking black claw, and gradually a self-assured smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"I understand now. If I guess right, even if such so-called Immortals truly descend to the Cultivation World, their powers will still be suppressed by this world, won’t they?
Moreover, you haven’t even truly descended upon this world, so let your domain now be broken!"
"Boom!"
Instantly, a ripple abruptly surged from Zhu Fei’s body.
Wherever the ripple passed, all previous bindings, including the immobilization of himself and Fatty Zhuge, instantly dissipated!
"Reincarnation Stone Bridge!"
"Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Net Sword Formation!"
As soon as they regained their mobility, Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge wasted no time, immediately unleashing their most powerful Divine Skills.
In a flash, the massive spear shadow broke apart, and the remaining divine power struck firmly on the shattered black claw!
"Puh—"
The black claw could no longer withstand the pressure, finally exploding into dust after a tumultuous spray of blood mist.
"No! How is this possible? How can you, merely at the Late Stage of Great Success, possess an Immortal Domain?"
After a furious roar, the opponent seemed to recognize the situation, realizing their descent had utterly failed this time, their voice suddenly turning cold and sinister.
"You will regret this. For destroying the grand plans of the Demon Immortal Sect, you will forever be pursued relentlessly, whether you ascend to heaven or escape to earth! Just wait, you will not escape! Hahaha...!"
As a burst of cold, mad laughter echoed, the overwhelming sense of danger, along with the guiding lights of the Soul Summoning Array, finally vanished completely at that moment.
