Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

631. The Dark Demon Lord Strikes, Lin Fei Faces a Life-or-Death Predicament!

In the southern domain of the Yin-Yang Immortal Domain, within its largest stronghold, there resided three Supremes of the Dark Demon Domain. However, their expressions soured as they observed the situation unfolding in the void.

Eight Supremes of the Divine Realm! How could eight Divine Realm Supremes appear outside their stronghold? Did the Dark Demon Lord not know? No, he must have been aware.

The three Supremes immediately grasped the dire straits they were in.

"Hold them off, our reinforcements will soon arrive," they strategized. "By then, their fate may well tilt towards doom."

"Currently, there are only these eight Supremes left in the entire Divine Realm. Should they fall or suffer severe injuries, the Divine Realm will be left utterly defenseless. Then, the entire Divine Realm will be ours!"

They realized that all they needed to do was delay. Hold off the eight Supremes. Once their reinforcements arrived, victory was assured!

Just as they resolved to hold off the Supremes at all costs— "Boom." The next moment, the Illusory Realm descended.

With the arrival of the Illusory Realm, the entire stronghold and even the three Dark Demon Supremes felt a moment of dizziness.

Then, all at once, the three Supremes and every Dark Demon in the stronghold froze, their faces displaying utter bewilderment.

The Illusory Realm had successfully "stunned" the three Dark Demon Supremes!

"We've succeeded!" The eight Supremes, including the Azure Emperor, rejoiced at this pivotal development.

Now, it was Lin Fei's turn. His deployment of the Illusory Realm had not disappointed. It had indeed successfully "stunned" the three Dark Demon Supremes. Now, it was up to the eight Supremes.

"We don't have much time," they acknowledged, "perhaps only a few breaths' worth."

"Regardless, before the Dark Demon Lord and his forces arrive, we must annihilate several of the Dark Demon Supremes! Finally, all three Supremes must be slain! Otherwise, we will be caught between two fires," Azure Emperor concluded, his voice resolute.

He then took immediate action. Not just Azure Emperor— the other seven Supremes joined him.

"Kill."

Together, the eight Supremes struck a blow as mighty as a landslide, overwhelmingly advancing towards the three Supremes.

"Boom."

At last, the attack of the eight Supremes fell upon the three Dark Demon Supremes.

A breath!

A single breath of time had passed.

The frenzied power exploded instantaneously upon the three supreme beings. Yet, these were the Supremes of the Dark Demon Domain, known for their formidable strength. Even their mere physical prowess was daunting.

Thus, despite being immobilized by Lin Fei's Illusory Realm and rendered into living targets, they withstood the joint strike of the eight Divine Realm Supremes.

"Two breaths!"

Azure Emperor's gaze was icy cold. Two breaths of time had elapsed, and the window for action was rapidly closing. The Dark Demon Lord could arrive at any moment, yet the three Supremes had not been vanquished—not even one.

"Continue."

Focusing their attacks on a single Supreme, they coordinated their power.

"Three breaths!"

"Boom."

Finally, this time, one of the Dark Demon Domain's Supremes was obliterated, his physical form exploding instantly. It took three breaths of time to slay one Supreme, and two still remained.

"Hum."

Ripples of space began to undulate within the void, a clear sign that the Dark Demon Lord and his forces were nearing. They were out of time.

"Lin Fei, quick, consume the life essence of the Dark Demon Domain Supreme!" Azure Emperor shouted urgently to Lin Fei.

"Eternal Realm, collect!"

Without hesitation, Lin Fei unleashed the might of his Eternal Realm, swiftly ensnaring the essence of the Dark Demon Supreme's flesh and blood into it.

"Rumble."

The essence of a Supreme, especially from the Dark Demon Domain, was terrifyingly potent. As soon as it was swept up by Lin Fei's Eternal Realm, the realm itself began to undergo a transformation.

Although the transformation required time, Lin Fei did not know exactly how much time was needed. All he knew was that his Eternal Realm seemed to be undergoing profound changes every moment. Perhaps the essence of a single Supreme was enough to catalyze a metamorphosis of his Eternal Realm.

But time was up.

"Four breaths!"

Azure Emperor's eyes were chillingly cold. Despite their combined efforts, they had failed to eliminate the remaining two Dark Demon Supremes.

Now, Azure Emperor's gaze turned towards the spatial ripples in the void. The real challenge was upon them.

The Dark Demon Lord arrived!

"Crack."

Finally, the void shattered. Majestic figures, exuding terrifying auras, traversed from the void. Leading them was the Dark Demon Lord himself. Behind him, at least dozens of figures followed—all of them Supremes.

Seeing the overwhelming number of these Supremes, a grave expression appeared on the faces of Azure Emperor and the others. Such was the might of the Dark Demon Domain!

Even in its heyday, when all its Supremes were present, the Divine Realm was subdued by the Dark Demon Domain, at least at the level of Supremes.

Now, with most of its Supremes gone and only eight remaining, how could they possibly stand against the scores of Dark Demon Domain Supremes?

However, faced with the Dark Demon Lord and numerous Dark Demon Supremes, the Azure Emperor's demeanor remained remarkably calm.

The Dark Demon Lord's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze icy as a hint of murderous intent radiated from him.

"You dare kill a Supreme of my Dark Demon Domain? Hmph, most of the Divine Realm's Supremes have fled. Only you still cling to fantasies. Now, I will completely destroy your illusions!"

With a wave of his hand, the Dark Demon Lord initiated the assault.

"Boom."

Dozens of Dark Demon Supremes unleashed their true demonic forms, and the void was filled with their colossal, unmatched bodies.

"Kill!"

At the Dark Demon Lord's command, a ferocious intent to kill soared to the heavens. Even the eight Supremes could not help but pale slightly.

"Lin Fei!"

Azure Emperor shouted urgently, a clear signal to act.

Lin Fei, understanding the gravity of the moment, did not hesitate. With a mere thought, he deployed the Illusory Realm.

"Boom."

The Illusory Realm descended, enveloping an area of a thousand miles around, capturing all the Dark Demon Supremes within it, including the Dark Demon Lord himself.

"This is..."

As the Illusory Realm took effect, the bodies of the Dark Demon Supremes stiffened one by one, their eyes becoming clouded. Clearly, their spirits were shaken by Lin Fei's Illusory Realm.

Only one was unaffected—the Dark Demon Lord himself! He was the supreme Ruler, adorned with numerous treasures, and his will was intertwined daily with the entire realm. Facing Lin Fei's Illusory Realm was tantamount to facing the entire Dark Demon Domain. How could it possibly succeed?

"Lin Fei, quite impressive," he acknowledged. "A mere Martial Ancestor possessing such a peculiar power, specifically targeting the spirit? Interesting indeed. But futile, it has no effect on me. Today, I will end you!"

A fierce light flashed in the Dark Demon Lord's eyes. If he could not slay a Supreme at the moment, could he not slay a Martial Ancestor?

Martial Ancestors were not True Immortals. Once their physical particles were utterly annihilated, they would perish.

Thus, the Dark Demon Lord immediately targeted Lin Fei. Neither Lin Fei's Illusory Realm nor his potential could be overlooked by him.

With a sky-shrouding palm, the Dark Demon Lord struck. The atmosphere around Lin Fei constricted, locking onto him, and plunging him into a crisis of life and death.

Lin Fei had a premonition. This palm seemed to surpass ordinary Supremes' might. If he could not withstand this blow, he might very well die.
