What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 570
570 Unexpected Completion (1)
Crack.
The last Demon Emperor died in fear, his eyes filled with regret.
What was this thing? Why did it casually intercept such an existence that it could not afford to offend? How could there be such a powerful existence in the two worlds?
They had died too unjustly.
It was not only them. The million-strong Demon Race army stationed in the nearby void also suffered and were all killed by the Tree World.
Seeing the unwillingness of the dead Demon Emperor, Song Shi said indifferently, “I wasn’t interested in killing you guys to begin with. You’re courting death.”
The void was silent. The life of the Demon Race withered, leaving only a lush forest.
Song Shi snapped his fingers and did not answer. The flame of life in his hand dissipated as he crossed the forest in a flash and entered the Mystic Spirit Realm.
Not far from the Demon Race’s garrison, a mountain-like Mystic Spirit Palace floated in the air. There was an army of a million cultivators stationed inside to resist the Demon Race.
The commotion caused by Song Shi’s Tree World’s Descent was too great. The sudden appearance of the huge forest appeared especially abrupt in the endless void. The screams of the Demon Race shocked the Heaven Patrolling Guards who were monitoring the movements of the Demon Race army.
Especially the Heaven Patrolling Guards. They immediately saw the encounter of the Demon Race army.
That shocking scene made them unable to recover for a moment. They watched in a daze as the trees that appeared out of thin air pierced through the bodies of the Demon Race in their panic and devoured their vitality and souls. In the blink of an eye, they withered and turned into bones.
The terrifying scene frightened them so much that they forgot to report immediately. They only reacted after the terrified cries subsided.
However, the experts of the Mystic Spirit Palace had already sensed the commotion and flew out. They looked into the distance with solemn expressions.
A Mahayana swallowed his saliva and said in shock, “Palace Master, what a terrifying Great Mastery Divine Power. It looks full of vitality, but in fact, it severs all life from the enemy.”
“It’s indeed terrifying. Fortunately, it’s targeted at the Demon Race. In that case, they should be on our side.”
The Mystic Spirit Palace Master narrowed his eyes. “Since when did we have such a powerful existence here? Even Old Ancestor can’t release such a destructive Great Mastery Divine Power outside.”
“Let’s see if the Heaven Observation Mirror has detected which eminence it is. Someone with such strength now is at least an existence after transcending the tribulation.”
“If he can’t reach this level, it’s very likely that he’s at the Heavenly Immortal realm. However, there’s no such existence in my Mystic Spirit Realm. Strange, who did it?”
As they spoke, the Tree World lost its strength and turned into a wave of light that dissipated, leaving only the corpses and spoils of war of the Demon Race that filled the sky. The scene was especially desolate.
In the Mystic Spirit Realm, after Song Shi descended, he frowned.
“Why are the rules here targeting me too…”
Wuyou said calmly, “You’re too powerful. You’ve also absorbed the power of other realms. It’s normal for you to be targeted.”
“Then I can only restrain my strength.”
With a thought from Song Shi, his aura quickly disappeared. At the same time, the pressure from the realm also disappeared.
“Interesting. It seems that if I don’t cause trouble, it won’t target me.”
Sensing the change, Song Shi smiled.
“Fellow Daoist Song, you really surprise me every time I see you.”
An old voice sounded. When Song Shi turned around, an old man in a yellow robe with a sage-like aura appeared beside him. It was Mystic Spirit Ancestor.
Previously, he could not see through this old man. This time, Song Shi’s Primordial Spirit had transformed and become an immortal soul, but he could clearly sense it.
The other party’s strength seemed to be about the same as his. He was only at the Heavenly Immortal realm.
“I’m also surprised that you found me so quickly,” Song Shi said.
“Fellow Daoist Song, you destroyed the main force of the Demon Race outside the Mystic Spirit Realm just now. I have to come over and thank you no matter what.”
The Mystic Spirit Ancestor smiled.
“You’ve done a good job of gathering information.”
Song Shi praised, “Since you’re here, I’ll ask you what you asked me to do. If it’s convenient, you can do it now.”
The Mystic Spirit Ancestor smiled bitterly, “Fellow Daoist Song, you’ve already completed it just now. There’s no need to attack anymore.”
“What?”
Song Shi was puzzled. “Just those just now? Aren’t they a little too weak?”
“Fellow Daoist Song, it’s not that they’re too weak. It’s just that you’re too powerful.”
The Mystic Spirit Ancestor did not know whether to laugh or cry, “Among them, one of them was a half-step Demon Celestial who had failed to transcend the tribulation. His strength far exceeded that of ordinary Mahayana realm experts. The other Demon Emperors were also quite powerful, but you killed them all in one go.”
“I didn’t notice that.”
Song Shi was a little speechless. “In that case, what you asked me to help with previously can be considered an accidental completion?”
“It’s done, and it’s overdone.”
Mystic Spirit Ancestor nodded. “Originally, I wanted you and a portion of the powerhouses of the Mystic Spirit Realm to attack and defeat this main force. In addition, the Mystic North Continent was defeated by you. The Demon Race’s attack this time will be considered a failure. I didn’t expect this main force to be destroyed by you.”
Song Shi found it strange. “I feel that it’s not difficult to destroy them. You should be able to do it too, right? Is there a need to make them so arrogant?”
The Mystic Spirit Ancestor sighed, “I want to too. Unfortunately, I can’t attack casually. I can’t even leave the Mystic Yellow Mountain too far. The further I leave, the weaker I will be.”
When Song Shi heard this, he recalled that Wuyou had said that this old man was at the True Immortal realm. Could it be that he was referring to his level when he was at the Mystic Yellow Mountain?
He asked curiously, “How did this happen?”
“Because I’ve already become a part of the Mystic Spirit Realm’s consciousness, I can’t be too far away from the Mystic Yellow Mountain. Therefore, when the Heavenly Demon Realm attacks, I only need to avoid the Mystic Yellow Mountain.”
The Mystic Spirit Ancestor was rather helpless, “That’s why am I called Mystic Spirit Ancestor.”
“I see…”
Song Shi was deep in thought and did not ask further. “Since there’s nothing else, I’m prepared to ascend to the Immortal World.”
“I wish Fellow Daoist Song success. Our Mystic Spirit Realm is quite far from the Immortal World. After we go, it will be difficult for us to meet again.”
The Mystic Spirit Ancestor sighed.
“Speaking of which, what do I have to pay attention to when I ascend?”
Song Shi still did not know the secret of ascension. The Thunder Immortal Monarch was an immortal, so he did not know what it was like to ascend from the lower realm to the Immortal World.
“If it was an ordinary Perfected Mahayana who was preparing to transcend the tribulation, I would suggest preparing more for the Ascension Tribulation. Fellow Daoist, your strength…”
The Mystic Spirit Ancestor’s face twitched, “I reckon that the Immortal Ascension Tribulation is nothing to you. It’s just that after you go to the Immortal World, try your best to keep a low profile. It’s rumored that the level there is very high. Even a Heavenly Immortal is nothing.”
“I know.”
Song Shi originally wanted to ask about some strategies, but when he heard this, it was equivalent to not asking.
As for the other party’s suggestion after ascending, with his understanding of the Immortal World, it was still equivalent to nonsense.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”
He cupped his fists and left very quickly.
Since he had already accidentally completed the favor of borrowing the Boundary Stone back then, there was no need for him to stay here for long.
He said secretly, “Wuyou, is what this old man said true?”
“What do you mean?” Wuyou asked.
“The distance between him and the Mystic Yellow Mountain will affect his strength.”
Song Shi was curious.
“It’s true. His lifespan has already exceeded the limits of the mortal world. He can only survive by relying on the rules of the plane. He’s a special Immortal God. It’s not wrong to say that he’s a part of the Mystic Spirit Realm’s consciousness.”
Wuyou nodded. “This Mystic Spirit Realm’s consciousness should have been severely injured. I don’t know what method he used. Did he use tricks or did the Mystic Spirit Realm volunteer? It has indeed fused with his consciousness. He can’t leave the Mystic Yellow Mountain. He’s probably maintaining something.”
