Seeking Immortality in a Bizarre World-Chapter 740 - 734 Bizarre Path Trap, Switcheroo_1

The rules of the Immortal Realm underwent a great change. Dao Bizarre and Bizarre Immortals fought on their own, resulting in disorder and chaos. The powerhouses of the Immortal Realm sealed many Dao Bizarre.

As many Dao Bizarre were no longer complete, the strength of the Bizarre Path sharply decreased, and they missed the absolute advantage to wipe out the Immortal Path in one fell swoop.

Having learned their lesson, the Bizarre Immortals no longer fought independently. They temporarily formed a Bizarre Path Alliance to jointly oppose the forces of the Immortal Realm.

The Donghua Immortal Domain was the main stronghold of the Immortal Realm. To break through this place was to shatter the last Pure Land.

After several unsuccessful frontal attacks, the Bizarre Path resorted to a strategy of corruption.

They lured and sowed discord among the Immortal Path Sects within the Donghua Immortal Domain, turning them into forces of the Bizarre Path.

By the time of the final counterattack, only the most top-tier Immortal Path experts and forces were left isolated and without support.

With lands overrun by the Bizarre Path and Bizarre Immortals, how could they possibly win?

Qin Shiren was a minor target; Lord Qianyu and the forces behind him were the true objective.

The Law Spirit Domain and the Formation merged, limiting the extreme speed and range of motion of the Gold-Winged Great Peng Bird Avatar.

A Golden Immortal and two Bizarre Golden Immortals worked in concert. Relying solely on his own power, Qin Shiren could not break the meticulously prepared trap.

No panic showed on his face; his cold gaze swept over the Yellow-robed Female Immortal, the Golden Immortal, and the two Bizarre Golden Immortals.

"The Bizarre Path Eastern Alliance?!"

"So the Bizarre Immortals still harbor ambitions of conquering the Fairy Domain!"

"Using me to threaten my grandfather? Don’t you think that’s incredibly naive?"

"Whether your grandfather will compromise or not, we’ll soon find out," one of the Bizarre Golden Immortals said coldly. "Take him down!"

One Bizarre Golden Immortal’s palm turned dark, forcibly drawing Qin Shiren’s Divine Soul towards it, as if intending to suck it into his hand.

"Parasitic Touch!"

The other Bizarre Golden Immortal’s body sprouted fleshy black tentacles. An invisible, eerie power affected Qin Shiren and the Gold-Winged Great Peng Bird Avatar as numerous black tentacles continuously pierced their skin, protruding from their bodies.

One aimed to seize his soul, the other to corrupt his body.

The power of two Bizarre Laws assailed him, a dual attack targeting both body and soul.

Qin Shiren, standing atop the Gold-Winged Great Peng Bird, controlled the avatar, sending it crashing towards the distant Heavenly Net Evil Screen.

A small silver sword flashed, slashing out with the avatar.

Countless red Evil Qi threads erupted. Just as the small silver sword carved a path and was about to pierce the Formation, a black-and-red fleshy palm swatted it away.

Engulfed by numerous strands of red Evil Qi, the sword failed to break through.

The Gold-Winged Great Peng Bird and Qin Shiren, close behind, were both flung back.

"Freeze!"

Wisps of frigid air surged from Qin Shiren’s body, coating the Power of Bizarre Law with frost and significantly slowing its invasion.

Qin Shiren was shrouded in a layer of snow-white frost armor, and even his eyebrows and hair turned snow white.

His hair and beard danced wildly, exuding an unrivaled aloofness.

"Grandpa, save me!"

Mystical patterns lit up around Qin Shiren, and an enigmatic power resonated from the void.

BOOM!

The red Evil Screen blanketing the sky suddenly shattered into thousands of pieces, as if pulverized by some formidable power.

The Golden Immortal maintaining the Formation turned deathly pale. He hurriedly cried out, "Lord Qianyu—"

Before he could finish, his body disintegrated into countless fragments.

A Purple-Robed Taoist stood beside where the corpse had been, an invisible power swirling around him, his face indistinct.

Everyone could feel the potent Evil Qi emanating from him. The Immortal Soul that emerged from the shattered body fell into his palm and was extinguished, turning to ash.

A Golden Immortal-level expert had died in an instant, utterly unexpectedly.

The Power of Space Law was indeed terrifying!

For a Taiyi Jade Immortal to kill a Golden Immortal would require considerable effort, but for Lord Qianyu, it was far too easy.

"Such audacity! How dare you plot against my grandson!"

"Bizarre Immortals, all of you, die!"

Lord Qianyu’s palms grew dark, a powerful suction force emanating from their centers.

The two Bizarre Golden Immortals realized something and hurriedly fled.

But it was too late!

Before they knew it, the two found themselves within Lord Qianyu’s palms, squeezed by an invisible force. Blood poured from their every orifice.

Their bodies surged with bizarre power as they attempted to resist the Taiyi Jade Immortal’s Power of Laws.

However, it was to little avail.

"Law Wielders might be one thing, but mere Proxy Practitioners dare to be my enemy?"

The two Bizarre Golden Immortals were successively crushed into pulp within his palms, on the verge of their forms and souls being utterly obliterated.

One transformed into a black soul and darted out, while the flesh of the other sprouted innumerable black tentacles, as if desperately seeking life in the face of death.

"I have long heard that Lord Qianyu’s mastery of Space Law is superb, having received the true teachings of Yu Qiong Celestial Honor. Indeed, the rumors are true."

Lord Qianyu sensed something. The parasitic flesh on his left palm was instantly flung away. It then reformed, coalescing into a Bizarre Immortal exuding an aura even more potent than Lord Qianyu’s.

This Bizarre Immortal wore a look of regret, having missed by a hair’s breadth the chance to corrupt the opponent’s flesh and parasitize Lord Qianyu.

Had it succeeded, getting rid of it would not have been so easy.

An invasive, bizarre power aimed at his Divine Soul was repelled by a hazy white jade light.

The other Bizarre Immortal—the one that had become a black soul—materialized from the void. This too was a Bizarre Immortal whose Realm was not the slightest bit inferior.

Lord Qianyu’s brow furrowed, his previous nonchalance replaced by solemnity.

These two Bizarre Immortals were not inferior to him in Realm; moreover, they were Law Wielders!

The difference between a Law Wielder and a Proxy Practitioner was like that between the heavens and the earth. Most crucially, Law Wielders could only be sealed, not killed.

Their strengths were not vastly different, so Lord Qianyu had no confidence he could seal two Bizarre Taiyi Jade Immortals of the same Realm.

It’s time to leave!

Lord Qianyu used the Power of Space Law to vanish from the spot with Qin Shiren. In the next instant, they were already tens of millions of li away.

The two Bizarre Taiyi Jade Immortals wanted to pursue, but were powerless to do so.

Space Law was incomparably powerful; whether to fight or flee depended entirely on Lord Qianyu.

However, since the trap was meticulously laid, their methods would not stop there.

At some unknown point, Qin Shiren’s body had become covered with black fleshy tendrils, and his eyes glinted with a black light. The words he then spoke were in the voice of the Bizarre Taiyi Jade Immortal from before.

"Fellow Daoist Qianyu, why the rush to leave?" The words came from Qin Shiren, but the voice was that of the Bizarre Taiyi Jade Immortal. "Could it be that I have been an inhospitable host?"

"Fellow Daoist, perhaps you’d sit down for a detailed discussion? After all, your esteemed nephew’s life is at stake."

Lord Qianyu’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He used the Power of Space Law to immobilize Qin Shiren and then produced a white elixir, feeding it to him.

This elixir was extraordinary, with an unknown Power of Laws circulating within it.

One by one, the black fleshy tendrils peeled off Qin Shiren, their corrupting power completely purified and annihilated into nothingness.

Accompanied by a scream, the black light in Qin Shiren’s eyes also began to slowly fade.

The lingering bizarre power controlled Qin Shiren, making him take out a prepared Black Jade Box.

"This belongs to Yu Qiong Celestial Honor," the voice said through Qin Shiren. "It is time for it to return to its rightful owner."

"I feel like this was all for nothing!" one of the Bizarre Golden Immortals, having reformed his body, said.

Tens of millions of li away, a Bizarre Taiyi Jade Immortal stared in the direction of the Qianhuan Sect. The two Bizarre Golden Immortals had reformed their bodies.

"Heh heh," replied one of the Bizarre Taiyi Jade Immortals. "Lord Qianyu won’t just carelessly discard this item. The potential harm is too great!"

"If this item can be delivered to Yu Qiong Celestial Honor, the Bizarre Path will gain another Dao Ancestor-level powerhouse—and a formidable Ancestor of Space at that."

"We don’t know where Yu Qiong Celestial Honor has hidden Purifying Celestial Honor. Without eliminating this threat that purifies bizarre power, destroying the Immortal Path won’t be easy."

"The piece has been placed. Whether it succeeds or fails now depends on providence."

Lord Qianyu stared at the Black Jade Box that had appeared before him. It was densely covered in restrictive seals, its contents unknown.

He quickly realized what it was and had no intention of touching the box, avoiding it as if it were a venomous snake.

He initially intended to send the item away using the Power of Space Law. However, on second thought, he applied layer upon layer of restrictive seals before placing it into his storage.

"Grandfather, I really thought I was going to die..."

The bizarre contamination cleansed by the elixir, Qin Shiren finally returned to normal. He recounted his terror to his grandfather, relief evident in his voice.

Being unable to control my own body, like a puppet on strings... it was a horrible feeling. I thought I was going to die several times! Thankfully, Grandfather is so powerful...

Lord Qianyu gave no response and did not comfort his dearly loved grandson; his mind was completely elsewhere.

"Return to the Qianhuan Sect at once. Do not leave the sect grounds for any reason."

"I have an errand to run. I’ll be back shortly."

Lord Qianyu disappeared into thin air, his whereabouts unknown.

Grandfather’s strange behavior... it must have something to do with that Black Jade Box, Qin Shiren mused.

Could this be another trap set by the Bizarre Path forces?

Whatever. If the sky falls, Grandfather will be there to hold it up.

Qin Shiren hastily took out an elixir and administered it to the Golden-Winged Peng Bird to cleanse its contamination.

The Bizarre Path forces had focused on Qin Shiren, not the Golden-Winged Peng Bird, so its level of bizarre contamination was much less severe and thus easier to resolve.

A single elixir effortlessly neutralized the contamination from the bizarre power.

Within Qin Shiren’s Na Xian Bag, Jia Ren toyed with a Black Jade Box. Had the Bizarre Taiyi Jade Immortals and Lord Qianyu been present, they would undoubtedly have recognized it as the very item capable of shifting the balance of power between their factions.

Naturally, the one Lord Qianyu took was... a fake.

This object had been maneuvered into Qin Shiren’s Na Xian Bag under the control of a Bizarre Immortal.

The treasure was no ordinary item. Jia Ren, also known as Jia the Official, who had already been planning his departure, seized the opportunity to perform a clever switch.

A decoy created by the Thousand Transformations Rule could easily deceive Lord Qianyu; that much was certain.

Whether it was to frustrate the Bizarre Immortals or Lord Qianyu, either outcome was a welcome one for Jia Ren.

I must get out of here before Lord Qianyu discovers the switch!

Jia Ren muttered, "Time to collect a little more interest!"

Jia Ren pocketed all the treasures from Qin Shiren’s Na Xian Bag. In the next instant, the Na Xian Bag exploded, emitting a brief flash of black and red light.

Golden wings emerged. As they folded, they transformed into a slash that tore through heaven and earth, leaving a lasting scar upon space itself.

This attack, built up over time and unleashed suddenly, was heaven-shocking. Qin Shiren barely registered that something was amiss before he was decapitated.

The blade intent, powerful enough to shatter heaven and earth, obliterated Qin Shiren’s Immortal Soul, leaving not a single trace.

A powerful Divine Soul force surged into the Great Roc’s Sea of Consciousness, transforming into a slowly rising crimson sun that illuminated the avian soul within.

Qin Shiren’s Divine Soul fragment within the Great Roc, sensing the powerful enemy’s intrusion, transformed into an icy coffin, attempting to freeze the blazing sun.

Extreme cold and radiant heat clashed, turning the soulscape into a battlefield of scorching fire and biting frost.

"You dare to steal what is mine!"

The intruding Divine Soul resonated with the Great Roc, as if Jia Ren were its true master, and it was only natural for it to return to him.

The solar disc, wreathed in grey flames, unleashed a grey fiery tide that swept through the soulscape, its unstoppable momentum disintegrating the defending icy soul power.

Jia Ren extended his hand, drawing the Golden-Winged Peng Bird into the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl. Flames then ignited Qin Shiren’s headless corpse.

"Law of Swift Speed!"

The Power of Law within the Golden-Winged Peng Bird’s body shifted to the Law of Swift Speed. It flapped its wings and vanished from the spot.
