256: Chapter 256 Blocking the Door

Su Mo seemed to see through her thoughts and said indifferently:

"Don't worry, once you possess this body, you will have the same immortal and indestructible characteristics as them. After that, whatever you want to do, wherever you want to go, I will not interfere."

As soon as these words were spoken, the doubts in Leng Ningshuang's heart were largely dispelled.

"Good! I'll undergo Possession!"

Leng Ningshuang no longer hesitated; she was also a decisive person.

Powerful Divine Soul power instantly left her body, transforming into a cool Escape Light, and fiercely rushed into the Sea of Consciousness in the Tribulation Crossing Stage Incarnation's glabella.

The process was unexpectedly smooth; the Incarnation's Sea of Consciousness was empty, without any resistance, and her Divine Soul easily took control.

A moment later, Leng Ningshuang slowly opened her eyes.

This Incarnation had been transformed into her original appearance.

She moved this new body slightly, feeling a bit unfamiliar but not uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Su Mo said no more, merely giving her a meaningful glance before turning and leaving with his other Incarnations, instantly disappearing into the sky, as if he truly no longer had any control over her.

Only Leng Ningshuang, after her Possession, remained in place, filled with novelty and a hint of uncertainty.

She tried to circulate her immortal essence, and it flowed unimpeded.

With a thought, she tried to imitate Su Mo's other Incarnations by burning a trace of essence blood. The essence blood was instantly consumed, but at the moment of consumption, that trace of essence blood immediately returned to its original state.

Her heart trembled, and she tried burning her Lifespan, with the same result.

The consumed Lifespan was replenished the next second, as if endless.

Even the consumption of Divine Soul power could instantly recover!

"Truly... truly inexhaustible?!"

Leng Ningshuang felt the surging and bizarre power within her, and a monstrous wave rose in her heart.

This Heaven-Defying ability made her feel a dizzying ecstasy, but immediately after, a deep chill.

How could such a Heaven-Defying ability come without a price?

She dared not try more extreme methods, fearing unpredictable consequences.

Looking at her original body, which was sitting cross-legged on the ground, Leng Ningshuang prepared to leave the body with her Divine Soul again and return to her original body.

But the next moment, her face instantly turned extremely gloomy.

She couldn't get out!

Her Divine Soul couldn't leave this body even a tiny bit, as if it had been locked from the outside.

After a moment of thought, she put away her original body, intending to return to Yunmiao Palace and ask her Master to help her separate... Over the next seven days, similar scenes played out one after another in different corners of the Secret Realm.

Su Mo's Incarnation army, with its absolute numbers and immortal characteristics, found the remaining Second Generation Immortals, Li Muchen, Qing Luo, Zhang Kuang, Xiao Jian, and others one by one, forcing them into desperate situations.

Facing the same choice:

To be completely transformed into unconscious Puppets?

Or to submit and undergo Possession of an Incarnation, gaining immortal power and superficial freedom?

After witnessing the terrifying true immortality of the Incarnations and seeing Leng Ningshuang safe and sound after undergoing Possession of an Incarnation, they all chose the latter.

But they planned that after leaving the Secret Realm, they would immediately have their Sect Elders take action, crush Su Mo into dust, and seize all five top-grade origin fruits from him.

Qing Luo of Wan Cao Valley, Li Muchen of the Li Clan Immortal Family, Zhang Kuang of the Zhang Clan Immortal Family... even Xiao Jian, the most unruly and from the Taixu Sect, after continuously using all his trump cards, even damaging his cultivation to activate forbidden techniques, still couldn't escape the Incarnations' encirclement. In the end, he could only let out an unwilling roar and chose to undergo Possession.

After his Possession, he immediately frantically tested the limits of this immortal characteristic, and the results shocked and even terrified him.

No matter how he harmed himself, his body would instantly recover.

As the Secret Realm exit was about to reopen, all the core Second Generation Immortals who had entered the Secret Realm had become self-aware Incarnations under Su Mo's command.

They gathered behind Su Mo, their appearances unchanged, their gazes all fixed on Su Mo's back.

Only in the depths of their eyes, a hint of surprise at their own state, wariness of Su Mo, and obsession and unease with the immortal power were hidden.

Su Mo looked at them, a satisfied smile on his face.

Entering the Secret Realm involved random teleportation, but there was only one exit when leaving.

Finally, the Secret Realm gate opened in the core area of the Secret Realm.

"Go, it's time for you to leave."

Su Mo said indifferently.

Behind him, Leng Ningshuang, Li Muchen, Qing Luo, Zhang Kuang, Xiao Jian, and the other Second Generation Immortals exchanged glances, then transformed into Streaks of Light and rushed into the Secret Realm gate.

They had only one thought in their minds.

That was to tell their Sect Elders everything that happened in the Secret Realm, so that they could suppress Su Mo the moment he stepped out of the Secret Realm gate.

To obtain the five origin fruits in his Possession, and his method of turning people into Puppets.

"Elder! Quickly capture that Lower Realm Cultivator!"

"Father! The Secret Realm has changed!"

"Junior Martial Uncle! Avenge us!"

Amidst flashing light, they appeared outside the Secret Realm entrance in the mountain range.

From the various flying boats already waiting there, several figures with powerful auras immediately flew down. They were the Elders or core figures leading each Family.

"Shuang'er, what happened? Why are you so flustered?"

A beautiful woman from Yunmiao Palace pulled Leng Ningshuang aside, and after confirming her safety, immediately asked in a deep voice.

"Muchen, what happened in the Secret Realm? Didn't you get the top-grade origin fruit?"

A dignified old man from the Li Clan Immortal Family also frowned and looked at Li Muchen.

"No time to explain!"

Li Muchen said urgently, pointing to the Secret Realm light curtain that had not yet closed:

"There's a Lower Realm Cultivator in the Secret Realm. He took five top-grade origin fruits and forced us into desperate situations multiple times. Even Clan Brother Yunyi suffered at his hands."

"What? Five top-grade origin fruits?!"

"A Lower Realm Cultivator?"

The news was like a thunderclap, leaving the various forces present puzzled.

How could a Lower Realm Cultivator force their Family disciples, who had profound Foundations and were covered in Immortal Artifacts, into desperate situations?

Moreover, a Lower Realm Cultivator had no right to enter the Secret Realm at all.

But seeing the genuinely frightened expressions of their own disciples, everyone still gave the order:

"Form the array! Seal the exit!"

"Everyone, be on guard!"

"Once that Lower Realm Cultivator comes out, suppress him immediately!"

Without further ado, experts from almost all forces — Taixuan Immortal Sect, Yunmiao Palace, the Li Clan, the Zhang Clan, Taixu Palace, Wan Cao Valley — instantly took action. Beams of powerful immortal essence shot into the sky, interweaving into a giant light net covering dozens of miles. Countless runes flickered in the Void Realm, and sharp Killing Intent locked onto the Secret Realm exit.

The atmosphere was tense, reaching its peak.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for that Lower Realm Cultivator to walk into the trap.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths... time passed little by little, the Secret Realm light curtain slowly rippled, but Su Mo's figure never appeared.

"What is he playing at?"

Xiao Jian couldn't help but roar, his face after the Possession filled with anxiety and impatience.

Leng Ningshuang's delicate brows furrowed slightly, the ominous premonition in her heart growing stronger.

A moment later, just as the Secret Realm light curtain began to become unstable and was about to close—

Two figures, one after another, stumbled out of the light curtain.

Everyone's spirits lifted, and all attacks were instantly brewing.

However, when they clearly saw the faces of the two, everyone was stunned.

Those were... Zhang Ling and Li Yunyi!

"Ling'er!"

"Yunyi!"

The Elders of the Zhang Clan and Li Clan immediately recognized their own disciples.

In their hands, they each held two and three shimmering origin fruits.

"top-grade origin fruits!"

Someone exclaimed.

But what was even more puzzling was, where was that Lower Realm Cultivator?
