Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Above the giant handprint pit, there was a protective barrier that even Completion of Foundation Realm cultivators couldn't break through.

For millennia, countless cultivators had tried numerous methods, but they had always been unable to open it.

So, even knowing that the heavenly insights they craved were right before their eyes, they were still powerless and helpless, only able to enter at specific times each year to capture some of the scattered heavenly insights.

Therefore, for everyone, the protective barrier above the handprint was an obstacle they could never overcome.

But now, what made them feel incredulous was that this protective barrier, which even Completion of Foundation Realm experts couldn't do anything about, was actually cracking before their eyes.

If this were to spread, it would surely shock the entire cultivation world.

They only felt their brains spinning even more, not understanding how all of this was happening.

“Crack…”

“Crack…”

Accompanying the series of faint sounds, more and more cracks appeared in the protective barrier above the handprint.

Finally, under the pressure of a powerful force, a huge hole was broken open at the top of the barrier, and a golden stream of light shot out from this hole at lightning speed.

“Did you guys see that? Did something just run out?”

Seeing this scene, someone rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

In fact, it wasn't just him; everyone present clearly noticed the golden stream of light that flew away at high speed. It was just too fast, and before everyone could react, it had already disappeared.

At the same time, the huge hole that had been forced open in the barrier rapidly healed, and soon it was completely restored, without any trace of a gap.

“Look, what's that over there?”

Just then, someone suddenly pointed to the southeast corner outside the barrier and shouted urgently.

Everyone quickly looked up and saw that there, a solitary blue sphere of light was quietly floating.

“It’s… it’s… it’s a heavenly insight! Everyone, hurry and grab it!” At this moment, someone else exclaimed loudly.

His words immediately awakened the people who were still in a daze, forgetting all the strange phenomena that had happened before, and they all looked at the blue sphere of light with intense fervor.

Sure enough, this blue sphere of light was a water-attribute heavenly insight.

Presumably, it had escaped from inside when the barrier cracked just now.

After confirming this, the light of greed that had subsided in people's eyes flourished again, and they rushed forward in a swarm, all pouncing towards the blue sphere of light.

At this time, Chen Tian also put away the strange look he had before and rushed forward with the crowd.

The crowd went crazy again. They couldn't care less about any etiquette or refinement. Madness reappeared on their faces, and they used all their skills to compete.

Among them, Daoist Nanxian was the most ferocious in the snatch. He had been trapped in the Sea of Qi Realm for nearly a thousand years and was nearing the end of his life. Therefore, he could no longer wait and had to break through as soon as possible; otherwise, he would grow old day by day until he turned into white bones.

He had spent a great deal of effort and blood to cultivate to this point, so naturally, he was unwilling to waste it in vain. Therefore, in recent years, he had been providing the Frozen Demon Domain with many resources and intelligence, which allowed him to continuously enter the Ruins of the Demon Domain and collect heavenly insights.

This method did indeed work. After studying some insights inherited from ancient immortals, he suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment, as if the gate that had blocked him for nearly a thousand years was slowly opening.

So, under the tearing of his sharp claws, the crowd gradually realized his terror, and with injuries all over their bodies, they withdrew from the competition, giving the blue sphere of light to him.

A storm came to an end.

During the scramble, many people were injured by the mad Daoist Nanxian, but they dared not speak out in anger, and could only hide in the distance, licking their wounds like puppies.

However, Daoist Nanxian completely ignored them, only tightly grasping his spoils, and then, with the eyes of a victor, provocatively surveyed his defeated opponents.

When the crowd saw his sharp gaze sweep over, their bodies trembled suddenly, and then they couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.

Seeing this scene, Daoist Nanxian couldn't help but feel even more pleased.

It seemed that he greatly enjoyed the look of fear and helplessness on everyone's faces.

After sneering contemptuously, he continued to scan the others.

But just as he was scanning halfway, he suddenly seemed to have discovered something. His pupils contracted sharply, he stopped, and icy, sharp rays of light flashed in his eyes.

At this time, the shadow of a person was reflected in Daoist Nanxian's eyes.

This person was wearing a white shirt, had an extraordinary temperament, and his face did not have the look of fear like the others, but was instead smiling calmly.

This person was Chen Tian.

When others saw Daoist Nanxian's gaze sweeping over, they lowered their heads in fright, but only Chen Tian remained unmoved. When he noticed Daoist Nanxian's gaze, he even nodded slightly, as if greeting him.

From the beginning, Daoist Nanxian had vaguely felt that Chen Tian was somewhat different, and now, he was even more certain that this Chen Tian was an opponent not to be underestimated.

Daoist Nanxian thought so, and not without reason.

The reason why everyone had gone to great lengths to come here was nothing more than to seize the heavenly insights here.

For this goal, they had used all their skills, as if they were experiencing a life-and-death battle.

But only this Chen Tian seemed very different. When facing these treasures of the cultivation world, he had always had a flat expression, so calm that people couldn't help but feel fear.

Although Daoist Nanxian was preoccupied with competing for the heavenly insight just now, he did not notice Chen Tian's actions. But he could feel that Chen Tian seemed to have no interest in these things at all.

It was as if he was watching everything with amusement, with a monkey-like gaze.

“How strange, this old man can read the thoughts of everyone in the world, but he can't see through this kid? Who on earth is he?”

Looking at Chen Tian's indifferent appearance, the cold light in Daoist Nanxian's eyes became even sharper!
