A Daluo Golden Immortal is attested by Heaven and Earth. Once a cultivator attains the Daluo Dao Fruit, all of their timelines contract into a single strand. Once achieved, forever achieved—their past, present, and future are entirely within their own grasp.
Even if they perish this second, they can manipulate the timeline to project their reflection back from another point in time.
Below Daluo, all are merely ants.
Cultivation realms below Daluo simply cannot completely slay a Daluo Golden Immortal.
Only a Daluo Golden Immortal, using their own Daluo Dao to erase the opponent's Daluo Dao Fruit, can truly and permanently kill another Daluo Golden Immortal.
“Can't be killed?”
Seeing the green-robed old man re-manifest, Xuanjian frowned, suddenly finding the situation tricky. “Daluo Golden Immortals really are a troublesome group of existences for the current me.
“With my current methods, killing a Daluo Golden Immortal is fine, but completely erasing one is impossible.”
“Kid, you possess Daluo magic power, but you lack a Daluo Dao Fruit.”
The green-robed old man no longer panicked or fled. Speaking with confidence, he said, “Perhaps you can kill the me of this present moment, but as long as my Daluo Dao Fruit remains, I can resurrect indefinitely!”
Xuanjian: “...”
Tightening his grip on the Qingming Sword, Xuanjian's aura suddenly surged.
Seeing this, the green-robed old man hurriedly waved his hands. “Daoist friend, let's talk this over properly! Since neither of us can do anything to the other, why not just leave it at that?
“Return my spiritual treasures, and I'll leave right away.
“How about it?”
The green-robed old man also understood that although the taoist before him lacked a Daluo Dao Fruit and couldn't permanently erase him, he himself could do nothing to his opponent either.
It was better to take a step back for now.
Retrieve his spiritual treasures.
In the future, after gathering a few close friends, he could track this kid down and slay him!
To settle today's karma!
Such was the green-robed old man's internal plan.
However, at that moment, the system panel visible only to Xuanjian appeared before his eyes.
[Ding! Detected that the host has encountered a powerful Daluo enemy. With the empowerment of the Great Dao rule skill "Fifty-Fifty with Anyone", the host possesses the strength to fight him, but the host is ultimately not a Daluo Golden Immortal and cannot completely erase him. Now that the enemy intends to retreat, the host's choices are as follows:
Option 1: Settle the matter peacefully, return the spiritual treasures, and let him go.
Reward: Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Innate Fire Spirit Pearl!
Option 2: Tell him to get lost. Want the spiritual treasures back? Not a chance! Wait until achieving Daluo in the future, then slay him to settle karma.
Reward: Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Innate Wood Spirit Pearl!
Option 3: You want to quit halfway through the fight? Where was this attitude earlier?! Fight! Beat him ruthlessly! Destroy him!
Reward: Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Innate Metal Spirit Pearl!]
Looking at the three choices before him, the corners of Xuanjian's lips curved slightly into a cold, calm smile, a faint trace of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
This immediately made the green-robed old man feel a sudden chill, his scalp tingling as he thought, 'This Taiyi ant... couldn't possibly want to keep fighting, could he?
'Is he insane?! Daluo magic power is vast and boundless, while his Taiyi Golden Immortal magic power will run out sooner or later. If he keeps fighting, he'll be the one at a disadvantage!'
“I choose Option 3!”
Xuanjian made his choice without a moment's hesitation.
Indeed.
He had not yet achieved the Daluo Dao Fruit and could not completely erase the green-robed old man.
But... just because Xuanjian couldn't didn't mean others couldn't!
This place... wasn't far from Mount Zhou.
Around Mount Zhou dwelled a savage, unreasonable, and exceptionally powerful race!
The Wu tribe!
Borrowing a blade to kill!
Yes, Xuanjian was going to borrow a blade to kill!
“Cut the nonsense! Today, either I beat you to death, or you get beaten to death by me!”
“Fifty-Fifty!”
“Activate!”
Xuanjian let out a furious roar as his aura exploded, matching an early-stage Daluo Golden Immortal in an instant!
Holding the Qingming Sword in one hand and the Soul-Falling Lamp in the other, Xuanjian charged at the green-robed old man with majestic momentum and soaring battle intent.
Seeing this, the green-robed old man gasped in shock. “Madman! I think you've completely lost your mind!
“Hmph! I'll retreat for now. Once your magic power is drained, I'll show you how I handle you!”
Without a second thought, the old man turned and fled without the slightest hesitation.
Seeing this, Xuanjian ignited the Soul-Falling Lamp once more.
The green-robed old man's Primordial Spirit shook violently.
Taking advantage of this moment, Xuanjian slashed the green-robed old man toward Mount Zhou with his sword.
Then he pursued and struck relentlessly!
Whenever the green-robed old man veered off course, Xuanjian unleashed a combination of crowd control and burst damage to force him back on track.
Like driving a duck, he herded the green-robed old man toward Mount Zhou.
At first, the green-robed old man felt deeply aggrieved, but he did not panic in the slightest.
Because he already knew that Xuanjian's combat power was merely comparable to a Daluo Golden Immortal.
He wasn't a real Daluo Golden Immortal!
He couldn't completely kill him!
And his magic power was limited.
Once the magic power of the Taiyi ant chasing him ran out—
Hehehe!
That would be when he, Ancestor Qingzhu, launched his counter-kill!
A thousand years later.
Ancestor Qingzhu: “???”
Ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
Looking at Xuanjian, whose magic power seemed infinite, and then at the majestic sacred mountain drawing closer and closer... Ancestor Qingzhu was both baffled and terrified!
“Stop chasing me, you bastard!
“Mount Zhou is right ahead! That's the Wu tribe's territory!
“Those savages from the Wu tribe don't listen to reason! Once we enter their domain, they'll kill us both without a second thought!”
In this era, the Demon tribe had not yet emerged or taken form, but the Wu tribe was already well-established, forming Twelve Great Tribes around Mount Zhou.
Furthermore, they proclaimed themselves to the world as: Pangu's Orthodox Successors—the Wu Tribe!
Ancestor Qingzhu had never interacted with the Ancestral Witches, but he had heard other Daoist friends mention how brutal and domineering these savages were!
Any living being that entered their territory was killed without exception and turned into their food.
Ancestor Qingzhu considered himself a proud Daluo Golden Immortal who looked down upon Honghuang, yet he did not dare provoke those Wu savages.
“Gonggong, there's a foolish fellow over there calling us savages.”
“What's there to say, Zhurong? Let's take one each, kill them, and have a little snack!”
