232: Chapter 232 The Path of Fallen Immortals

Su Mo fell into deep thought upon hearing those words.

In other words, the Ascension went sideways, didn't it!

"Let's go. I'll take you to condense a demonic body first, and then I'll explain everything to you slowly..."

"No need. I'm not done with things in the Cangxu Realm yet; I have to head back immediately."

Heart Demon Nine Five Two Seven looked at Su Mo in surprise:

"Go back? You can't go back anymore. The cross-realm demonic seal can only be used once. If you want to return, you'll have to wait until you break through to the rank of Demon General to breach the barrier of the Heavenly Demon Realm."

Hearing this, Su Mo touched the center of his brow.

Sure enough, that profound black mark had completely vanished.

But there wasn't a trace of frustration on Su Mo's face; instead, a meaningful smile appeared.

He looked at Heart Demon Nine Five Two Seven, his tone calm and confident:

"Xiao Qi, when did I say I had to rely on the seal to go back?"

With a thought from Su Mo, a Zerg far away in the Cangxu Realm immediately self-detonated, and then he appeared before it in the Heavenly Demon Realm.

That's right!

The effect of [Family Property Reclamation] could completely ignore the barriers between the two realms.

In other words, he could now freely travel back and forth between the Heavenly Demon Realm and the Cangxu Realm at will.

This Zerg was equivalent to a spatial coordinate.

Hearing Su Mo call her "Xiao Qi," a flicker of discomfort flashed through Heart Demon Nine Five Two Seven's eyes, but her attention was soon drawn to the Zerg that had instantly transformed into a demonic creature before her.

"This is..."

Su Mo smiled slightly upon hearing her:

"Just think of it as my key to and from the Heavenly Demon Realm; it also serves as my eyes."

Under Heart Demon Nine Five Two Seven's stunned gaze, Su Mo whispered in his heart:

Family Property Reclamation!

The body that had originally been destroyed by the Blood Sea Demon Venerable appeared once again, completely intact.

"Xiao Qi, I need to Cultivate on my own for a while."

After speaking, Su Mo immediately sat cross-legged and began to completely condense the immortal fetus... no, the Demonic Fetus.

Anyway, Devilish Qi and Immortal Artifacts are on the same level; as long as it works, it's fine.

Unlike the stingy bit of Immortal Qi obtained from the Spirit Medicine in the Forbidden Ground, the Devilish Qi in this Heavenly Demon Realm was as dense as the air itself.

Devilish Qi surged in from all directions, pouring into Su Mo's body.

His fetal phantom, which had originally emitted a hazy Immortal Qi, was wrapped in pure Devilish Qi within a few breaths, and the outlines of its features gradually became clear and solid.

The immortal fetus transformed into a Demonic Fetus!

Heart Demon Nine Five Two Seven acted as a Protector for Su Mo on the side, feeling Su Mo's aura climb steadily, yet she was somewhat dazed by an aura that was completely different from her own.

The aura on Su Mo's body was something she had only felt from some Fallen Immortals.

To first undergo Ascension and become an immortal, and then fall into the Demonic Path—that is a Fallen Immortal.

They possess the Foundation of gods and immortals while also mastering the ruthlessness of demons; their strength is far more troublesome than immortals or demons of the same rank.

Just then, the Devilish Qi around Su Mo suddenly retracted, returning to a state of calm.

He slowly opened his eyes, his pupils deep to the extreme, and his entire temperament became cold and demonic.

The Demonic Fetus was complete!

"How does it feel?"

Heart Demon Nine Five Two Seven couldn't help but ask.

Su Mo clenched his fist, and the air between his fingers made a faint humming sound; if this were the Cangxu Realm, this single movement would have already shattered space.

"Good! Very good!"

He then looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through the dark red sky of the Heavenly Demon Realm.

A thick layer of purple clouds began to gather, and crimson lightning rolled within them with terrifying power.

"The Tribulation Crossing Stage Lightning Tribulation of the Heavenly Demon Realm, huh... Sorry, let's undergo the tribulation another time."

"It's time to go back."

Su Mo looked at Heart Demon Nine Five Two Seven and gave a gentle smile:

"See you next time."

Then, he directly rushed into the high altitude... and self-detonated!

Boom—!

A violent explosion bloomed under the dark red sky of the Heavenly Demon Realm, even scattering the newly formed tribulation clouds a bit.

Su Mo instantly turned into the purest energy and dissipated into the world.

However, at the very moment of the self-detonation—

In the Cangxu Realm, above Demon Suppressing City.

A Zerg was instantly replaced by Su Mo.

"He's back?!"

The Blood Sea Demon Venerable, who was preparing to completely refine this realm, immediately sensed Su Mo and snapped his gaze toward the sky above Demon Suppressing City.

Tribulation Crossing Stage?!

No! Not just the Tribulation Crossing Stage... that carries a trace of the pressure of the True Immortal Realm!

Although he had not yet undergone the complete nine rounds of Immortal Qi baptism and the True Immortal Lightning Tribulation.

What alarmed the Blood Sea Demon Venerable even more was that what Su Mo emitted was not pure Immortal Spirit Qi, but Devilish Qi.

"You have taken the path of a Fallen Immortal!"

The Blood Sea Demon Venerable's voice carried an unbelievable shock.

The opposition between immortals and demons is a universal truth of the heavens, but an anomaly like a Fallen Immortal would not be tolerated by either the immortal or Demonic Paths.

"Noisy!"

Su Mo interrupted flatly.

He floated in the air, feeling the surging Demonic Essence within his body, releasing an aura that was uniquely his own.

Heavenly Valley and the others below, who had already experienced countless resurrections and deaths, felt the pressure lighten under this aura, as if they had found their backbone.

The Blood Sea Demon Venerable was only surprised by the aura on Su Mo's body for a moment before he regained his arrogant expression:

"junior, calling you a Fallen Immortal is giving you too much credit. You haven't even stepped onto the true path of immortality yet; you're just a half-finished product that took the wrong path! How dare you act presumptuously before this venerable one!"

The Blood Sea Demon Venerable himself was a Profound Immortal. Although he had contended with the Great Nirvana Buddha for a long time, combined with the suppression of the Lower Realm's Heavenly Dao, he could now barely exert the strength of the True Immortal Realm.

But even a True Immortal was not something a half-baked Fallen Immortal like Su Mo could compare to.

"Blood Soul Spear!"

A dark red long spear condensed from the sea of blood, sliced through the Void Realm, and landed in his hand; everywhere it passed, it left a spatial rift that could not heal for a long time.

This Blood Soul Spear was his lifebound immortal weapon, coexisting with the sea of blood, and was far from being comparable to a Low Grade Immortal Artifact like the chi yu demon bow.

The spear struck like a Dragon, instantly arriving before Su Mo, pointing directly at the center of his brow.

Su Mo felt himself completely locked on by the tip of the spear; no matter where he fled, he would be hit by this strike.

In that case, he wouldn't hide!

Su Mo raised his eyes, the color of Chaos surging within them.

He had already seen the Blood Sea Demon Venerable's vast desires, which were different from before when they were completely unshakeable.

Having stepped into the Tribulation Crossing Stage and undergone one round of Devilish Qi tempering, he could now slightly control and twist the Blood Sea Demon Venerable's desires.

He extended his right hand, fingers spread, and made a grasping motion toward the Blood Sea Demon Venerable.

The originally unstoppable Blood Soul Spear actually stalled for a moment, and then it pierced through and annihilated Su Mo.

"Heh, overestimating yourself..."

A hint of lingering fear flashed through the Blood Sea Demon Venerable's heart.

In that moment just now, he actually felt his desire for slaughter stagnate for an instant, as if twisted by an invisible hand.

Although he recovered immediately, it was enough to alarm him.

To think that Su Mo, who hadn't even truly stepped onto the immortal path or become a True Immortal yet, could already have a slight influence on him, who possessed the status of a Profound Immortal.

This boy definitely cannot be left alive!

However, in the second after Su Mo's form was destroyed—

"This great desire heavenly Law is somewhat interesting..."

A calm voice abruptly sounded behind the Blood Sea Demon Venerable.

The Blood Sea Demon Venerable's pupils shrank, and he whipped his head around!

There he saw Su Mo floating there completely intact, Demonic Essence flowing around him, without a single injury on his body.

"How is that possible?!"
