316: Chapter 316 Cursing Lu Yuan? The Immortal Celestial Venerable Falls!

He had been completely defeated in terms of strength!

"No! I can't keep fighting like this! This brat is a monster! I must use that move!"

A trace of madness and determination flashed in the eyes of Longevity Heavenly Venerate.

He took a deep breath and pulled a tattered straw doll from his bosom.

The straw doll was covered in eerie runes, emitting a chilling and ominous aura.

"This is my final trump card!"

"During our exchange just now, I intercepted a wisp of your aura!"

Longevity Heavenly Venerate sneered, and a faint wisp of Chaos Qi appeared in his hand, the very same that had dispersed when Lu Yuan threw his punch earlier.

"Sacrifice!"

He shouted loudly, but this time, he wasn't sacrificing Lifespan, but vitality.

Behind him, hideous ghostly faces began to emerge.

Those were all Void Immortal powerhouses he had hunted over his long years, their vitality Sealed away to serve as backup "blood bags."

"Burn! Curse this brat to death!"

"Boom!"

The vitality of countless Void Immortals burned, transforming into a pitch-black, malicious power of a curse that instantly surged into the straw doll.

"Pfft!"

Longevity Heavenly Venerate spat a mouthful of Essence Blood onto the straw doll, which instantly turned blood-red, its eyes lighting up with an eerie crimson glow.

"Curse to kill!"

"Hum—"

The power of the curse instantly followed the line of Karma, ignoring spatial distance, and plunged directly into Lu Yuan's body.

"Go to hell! Once struck by this curse, not even an immortal can save you! Even if you have a Chaos Body, you must die!" Longevity Heavenly Venerate laughed wildly, as if he had already seen the scene of Lu Yuan's fall.

However.

The next moment, his smile froze on his face.

Lu Yuan stood in place, his expression calm, even carrying a hint of... mockery?

"Is this your trump card? A curse?"

Lu Yuan shook his head, his tone full of disappointment. "Unfortunately, you used it on the wrong person. When it comes to playing with curses, I am your ancestor."

Inside his body, the Death Rattle Curse mark, which he had long refined and improved, instantly awakened the moment it sensed this external curse power, just like a shark smelling blood.

"Devour!"

Lu Yuan thought to himself.

That power of the curse, which was enough to kill a Peak Void Immortal, hadn't even had a chance to take effect before it was swallowed whole by the pitch-black mark, turning into nourishment to strengthen itself.

"How is this possible?! You... you can even devour curses?! What kind of monster are you?!"

Longevity Heavenly Venerate was completely desperate; his legs went soft, and he was actually unable to stand steadily.

"Courtesy demands reciprocity."

Lu Yuan's gaze was cold as he raised a finger. "You should taste my curse as well."

"Death Rattle Curse, go!"

He cast a curse as well, and it was a more Advanced, more overbearing Death Rattle Curse!

This time, he consumed a portion of his own Essence Blood.

"Whoosh!"

A pitch-black curse rune instantly plunged into the glabella of Longevity Heavenly Venerate, moving too fast to be dodged.

"Ahhh!!!"

Longevity Heavenly Venerate let out an extremely miserable scream.

His body, which had been aged but still strong, began to decay at a speed visible to the naked eye at this moment.

His hair turned withered yellow and fell out, his skin became shriveled and wrinkled, and the vitality within his body flowed away frantically like a breached flood.

That was irreversible aging!

In just a few breaths.

This Half-step True Immortal, who had lived for countless years and once overlooked an era, transformed from a middle-aged Daoist into a shriveled old man on the verge of death, unable to even stand steadily.

"I am not reconciled... I am not reconciled..."

Longevity Heavenly Venerate fell to the ground, his voice hoarse like two pieces of rotten wood rubbing together, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness. "I have cultivated the Dao for several epochs... I never expected... to fall into the hands of a junior like you..."

As the last wisp of his vitality dissipated, Longevity Heavenly Venerate completely passed away, his body and soul destroyed.

The moment before his Divine Soul dissipated, Lu Yuan had already taken a step forward, arriving in front of him, and placed his hand on his crown.

"Soul Search!"

A massive torrent of memories flooded into Lu Yuan's mind.

A moment later, Lu Yuan withdrew his palm, a trace of joy flashing in his eyes.

"Secret of the Zhe... One Sword Through the Ages... I've got them!"

With these two ultimate techniques, his foundation would skyrocket once again.

Especially the "Secret of the Zhe," which was practically a guarantee of immortality.

...

Below.

The four Peak Void Immortal old monsters who were originally entangled in battle with Yaochi Holy Mother and the others were all stunned, their movements stiff, as if they had seen a ghost.

They had witnessed the fall of Longevity Heavenly Venerate with their own eyes.

That was a Half-step True Immortal! How could he just die like that?!

"Run! Run quickly!"

Ancient Emperor Jin Wu was the first to react, turning into a streak of golden light as he prepared to flee.

He was afraid, truly afraid.

The other three also hurriedly used secret techniques, wanting to escape from this terrifying place.

"Want to leave?"

Lu Yuan stood in the high sky, looking down at the four coldly, as if watching four ants.

He took a step forward.

"Qilin Step, Suppress!"

"Thump!"

The Void Realm shook violently.

"Chaos Domain, Open!"

"Hum—"

A gray, chaotic world instantly descended, completely shrouding the space within a radius of ten thousand miles.

Within this Domain, it was filled with the suppression of True Immortal-level Chaos Law.

Those four Peak Void Immortal old monsters who had just rushed out felt their bodies sink, as if they were carrying ten thousand divine mountains, and were directly pinned in mid-air, unable to move.

"It's over..."

The four of them turned pale as death, their eyes filled with despair.

Their eyes were filled with despair as they could only watch helplessly as the figure in white walked toward them step by step.

Above Qingyun Dao Sect, the originally churning clouds had calmed down, but the lingering terrifying pressure still made people's hearts palpitate.

Inside the Chaos Domain, it was dead silent.

There was no light, no sound, only endless Chaos Qi flowing slowly, as if it were the end of the world.

The four Peak Void Immortal old monsters who were usually high and mighty, looking down on all living beings—Ancient Emperor Jin Wu, Void One, Heavenly Saber Saint Ancestor, and Mysterious Ink—were now like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, confined in place by an irresistible Chaos Law, unable to move.

In their eyes, the arrogance and greed from before were long gone, replaced by deep despair and fear.

That was an instinctive fear of death, and also a complete submission to the man in white before them.

"We... are willing to surrender!"

Ancient Emperor Jin Wu was the first to lower his noble head.

The golden divine fire on his body had long been extinguished, and his originally brilliant armor had become dull and lusterless.

His voice trembled uncontrollably: "We are willing to submit to Lord Lu, to serve you like dogs and horses, to be beasts of burden for you, with absolutely no disloyalty! We only beg you to spare our lives!"

The longer one lives, the more one fears death.

Especially at their Realm, as long as one is alive, there are infinite possibilities.

Therefore, even if it meant just barely surviving in the world, for them, there was still a chance for a comeback.

"I am also willing to surrender! Lord, spare my life!"

"I beg for the Lord's mercy! This old man is willing to offer up his soul blood!"

Seeing this, the other three also knelt on the ground one after another, abandoning even their most basic dignity.
