Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 915: Seizing Fiends

Once Origin Defender entered, the others followed.

As they entered, they found themselves on a mountain.

Turning back, they discovered that the entrance had disappeared.

Flowing Wind slightly frowned, but before he could say anything, Jade Truth shouted, "What's going on? What sort of place is this? Where are your fiends?"

Origin Defender was also deeply puzzled.

Looking down at his chess board, he saw that his fiends were still running about the grassland, completely unaffected.

But from this high mountain, they couldn't see a single fiend, and what they saw was completely different from what they saw on the board.

This space they were in was very strange. The sun was in the shape of a rhombus, flames blazed across the sky, and the fiends roaming the earth were like nothing they had ever seen before. They had entered a world so strange that they felt like they were in an illusion.

In the middle of their shock, Tang Jie's figure appeared on the board, flying toward the fiends.

The fiends saw Tang Jie and rushed at him, at which Tang Jie chuckled and took out a large cauldron.

The moment this cauldron appeared, it erupted with golden light that had all the fiends trembling in fear. Even the Void Returning dragon and phoenix let out horrified cries, as if they had run into their natural enemy.

Tang Jie had taken out the Myriad Immortals Cauldron, the bane of all fiends. The moment it appeared, it exerted an immense suppressive power on the fiends. As the Myriad Immortals Cauldron began to turn, the fiends began to fly toward it.

Origin Defender shouted, "Not good! He's stealing my babies!"

Tang Jie was stripping him of his ownership of the fiends!

After all, one was a peak artificial Dao armament while one was a pseudo–Dao armament. The gap was already great, and Origin Defender wasn't controlling the fiends. As a result, Tang Jie could easily seize the fiends.

The only ones to resist were the dragon and phoenix.

Just like the jungle chess board, the Myriad Immortals Cauldron had a limit when sealing Earth Immortals, and the chance of sealing them was greatly reduced. In addition, Tang Jie, while having the combat power of an Earth Immortal, had yet to actually become an Earth Immortal, so he still found it hard to use the full strength of the Myriad Immortals Cauldron. This lowered the chance even more, so as a result, the two fiends could still resist the pull. However, they no longer had any excess energy with which to attack.

This was the power of a Dao armament. So long as it was used in the right place, a single treasure could easily suppress an opponent. The Immortals were stunned to see two Void Returning fiends so easily restrained by Tang Jie. Moreover, as Tang Jie transmitted more energy to the cauldron, it continued to suppress the dragon and phoenix.

His idea was very simple. It didn't matter that the chances were low. If he kept trying, he would succeed eventually. And now that he had reached greater attainment in the Immortal Spirit Body, he now had Immortal energy. He now had the "Immortal Body" part of an Earth Immortal, only lacking the deified soul. Thus, if he poured all his Immortal energy into the cauldron, he could temporarily activate its full power. But he was unwilling to do this, more willing to waste spiritual energy with a lower chance. After all, he had as many attempts as he could want.

Origin Defender was starting to panic.

It had taken him great effort to gather these fiends, each one the best of its peers, and train them in combination attacks. This was particularly true for the dragon and phoenix. It had taken him a thousand years combing the Great Stellar Chiliocosm to find two suitable fiends, and he had even hired members of his sect at a high price to help him capture them.

He frantically shouted, "Find the exit!"

Mou Siming grunted, "Tang Jie must have set up an illusion formation. I'll break through it at once."

He formed hand signs and chanted, "The cock's crow announces the dawn and scatters the fog. Break!"

His robes fluttered, and that giant rooster woven into the cloth jumped out and grew larger and larger. It let out a mighty crow that resounded through the world, clearing the surrounding skies.

But the scene remained the same, and no matter how they flew about, they couldn't enter the world Tang Jie was currently in.

Mou Siming grimaced and made more hand signs. "Great radiance, herald the dawn and expel all evil spirits!"

As he roared, the rooster let out another crow, and this time, the faint wailing of ghosts could be heard as they were extinguished. All Yin energy existing in this land was dispelled, and if this illusion formation had been formed using Yin energy, it would also be broken.

But this also did nothing.

The mountain was still the mountain, the waters were still the waters, and the sun remained in all its polygonal glory.

Mou Siming used several other methods, but none of them worked.

All the other cultivators were aghast. What sort of illusion formation was this that even the God of the Fate Department couldn't break?

It had to be understood that Mou Siming's Shining Radiance Divine Connection was the counter to all Yin-based illusion arts.

"This is impossible!" Mou Siming roared.

He knew that there were illusion formations that he couldn't break, but they would never manifest themselves in this way.

Origin Defender shouted, "Sir Flowing Wind, Sir Siming, hurry and think of something! Qing'er and Huo'er won't be able to last much longer!"

On the board, the dragon and phoenix were still holding on, but their miserable cries were a sign that they were on their last legs.

Origin Defender was beside himself with panic.

"Damn it! What kind of illusion formation is this!? I can't break it at all!" Mou Siming cursed.

Flowing Wind casually commented, "If even Sir Siming can't break it, it probably isn't an illusion formation."
