Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Caihua, Junior Sister? What's wrong?" Seeing the maiden's horrified expression, as if she had seen a ghost, Shang Yunshan was utterly bewildered and asked in confusion.

Hearing his question, the maiden took a long time to recover. Then, trembling, she pointed her delicate jade finger towards Shang Yunshan's back, and said in a terrified voice, "Mon... Mon... Mon... Monster!"

"Huh? Monster?"

Hearing the maiden's words, Shang Yunshan felt a sense of astonishment. In his bewilderment, he slowly turned around and looked in the direction of the maiden's finger.

It would have been better if he hadn't looked, but as soon as he glanced, Shang Yunshan was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground!

He discovered that the azure snake trapped by the Luo Tian Cover behind him was constantly expanding its body...

Three zhang... Ten zhang... A hundred zhang... Five hundred zhang... A thousand zhang!!!

In their horrified gazes, in just a few breaths, the originally slender azure snake had instantly expanded thousands of times, reaching a colossal size of five thousand zhang.

At this moment, it didn't resemble a snake at all, but more like a Flood Dragon! No, it should be an ancient dragon! Standing tall and proud on this vast grassland, its enormous eyes, like red gemstones, revealed only icy killing intent and mockery.

Although the Luo Tian Cover was a good treasure, capable of growing and shrinking at will, it had its limits. Its limit was that it could only be stretched to three thousand zhang, and stretching it further would risk destruction.

However, at this moment, the Luo Tian Cover was stretched to five thousand zhang, far exceeding its limit. Therefore, with a 'tearing' sound, a crack suddenly appeared on the Luo Tian Cover.

And as soon as this crack appeared, more and more cracks emerged one after another. Before long, the entire Luo Tian Cover was completely torn apart.

The pure white spider silk fell from the thousands of zhang high in the sky like snowflakes, appearing extremely eerie.

Seeing this scene, Shang Yunshan felt utterly despair. He originally thought that this azure snake was at most a fifth or sixth-order beast, but he never expected its strength to be so terrifying.

According to Shang Yunshan's speculation, this azure snake possessed at least the strength of an eighth-order, no, perhaps even the legendary ninth-order Demon King!

What was the concept of a ninth-order Demon King? That was an existence capable of rivaling a Sea凝境 expert among human cultivators!

And their current cultivation levels were only at the early stage of the Spring Transformation Realm. Even if they combined their strength, it wouldn't be enough to fill the snake king's teeth.

Realizing this, the horror in Shang Yunshan and Shang Caihua's hearts gradually dissipated, replaced by waves of despair and fear surging from the bottom of their hearts.

They had no confidence in fighting such a powerful demon beast, so the only thing they could do now was to run away.

Having made this decision, the two of them seemed to have reached a tacit agreement. They turned around at the same time, unleashed their full speed, and fled for their lives.

However, seeing their actions, the azure giant snake standing in the air revealed another hint of disdain and icy coldness in its enormous eyes. After flicking its tongue, it suddenly raised its tail and slammed it hard on the ground.

"Rumble..."

Under the azure giant snake's strike, a series of thunderous sounds roared from the ground. Then, the entire grassland seemed to be swept up by a tsunami, and the black soil instantly transformed into hundred-zhang-high 'earth waves', surging towards Shang Yunshan and Shang Caihua from all directions.

However, just as the azure giant snake's enormous head was less than ten zhang away from the two of them, suddenly, an emotionless voice rolled over from afar.

Hearing this voice, the azure giant snake paused immediately. It glanced at the two of them, seemingly reluctant, and then its body quickly shrunk again, from a giant of thousands of zhang back to its previous slender appearance. Then, with a flick of its long tail, it transformed into a green lightning bolt and disappeared into thin air.

At the same time, the huge 'earth walls' that surrounded the two of them, reaching a hundred zhang in height, collapsed in an instant after the azure snake disappeared, and re-integrated into the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the entire grassland returned to its previous tranquility, as if nothing had happened.

However, after seeing this scene, Shang Yunshan and the maiden seemed to still haven't recovered, standing blankly in place, at a loss.

They realized that although the voice just now seemed ordinary, it contained an irresistible majestic aura. Even though they were Spring Transformation Realm cultivators, hearing this voice made their minds sway and their blood churn.

Clearly, the owner of the voice was an extraordinary person, and it was his words that saved them!

Thinking of this, Shang Yunshan's face immediately revealed endless gratitude. He cupped his hands towards the surroundings and said, "Senior, thank you for saving us just now. Do you perhaps know our Shangtian Sect?"

"Don't get me wrong. The only reason I saved you is that I didn't want your blood to pollute this place. Now, get out of here!"

Before long, the voice from just now came out again. Then, the floating dust that constantly swept across the grassland instantly condensed into a huge palm, slamming hard on the two of them, causing them to involuntarily fly backward in great horror! They flew from the center of the grassland to the edge of the grassland. And the distance between them was more than thousands or tens of thousands of kilometers!

"This strength, could it be Sea凝境? No, no, no, even Master couldn't possibly have such a powerful strength? Could it be... is this person a Foundation Establishment Realm old monster?"

Before he could steady his mind, even greater horror surged into Shang Yunshan's heart, causing him to stare blankly, dumbfounded, at the vast grassland before him!
