Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

```

The true horror is not the passing of time, but that sense of utter despair from being powerless.

The lifespan years of the demons in the panel rapidly decreased.

In response, Wu Jun's body size gradually increased, its heavy golden shell eroded by the wind and sand, becoming rougher, with rocks piling up on it, its limbs swelling to an extent that the reef could no longer contain.

Until it itself became an island.

The rough skin was now indistinguishable from the stone surface, its breath so faint as to be imperceptible, and those turbid eyes were long dominated by the breath of twilight years.

"My lord, it might not make it out."

The throne inside the Ten Thousand Demon East Hall became empty at some unknown time, and Ke Shisan, in both appearance and demeanor, underwent a drastic change compared to before, his power in a completely different league.

Although far from the Unity Realm Stage, the pressure he exerted on Shen Yi was no less than that of those Daozi, perhaps even surpassing them.

He walked leisurely to the back of his master, the reverence in his eyes unchanged, even more intense than before the tribulation.

"Let's wait and see."

Shen Yi glanced at the remaining million-plus lifespan years of the demon, his thoughts still steady.

After all, if Wu Jun could come out, it wouldn't be a total loss.

For these demon lifespan years had truly enhanced the power of the Town Stone, not wasted frivolously.

"..."

Ke Shisan could also perceive the changes in Wu Jun at this moment.

Although he didn't particularly like this sycophantic smooth-talker, he still hoped that the other could make it through. However, the chances now seemed very slim.

Wu Jun was clearly deeply mired in his heart tribulation.

Lacking the great willpower to see through aging

By its own means, it was merely a Return to Void tenth level demon, its temperament was not exceptional, so not overcoming the tribulation was to be expected.

The only reason for not failing yet was because Shen Yi had not cut off the supply of the demon lifespan years.

The "floating island" transformed by the Turtle Demon was, in fact, no different from a dead object.

"Huh."

Shen Yi pursed his lips slightly.

Faced with such a tribulation, if one must speak of a turning point, it would be the brief spark of enlightenment sporadically arising within the Turtle Demon amidst its endless sinking.

But even if it were to briefly awaken, how could it grasp that fleeting spark of enlightenment? If missed, it would fall back into the depths, waiting for who knows how many years to come across it again.

Lifespan years have an end... Fortunately, demon lifespan years do not.

Shen Yi looked up again, he had said before, nothing else but these, he had in abundance.

The vast demon lifespan years once again poured into Wu Jun's body.

When time is stretched to an appalling degree, those rare moments of enlightenment start to seem frequent.

"Roar——"

After missing countless opportunities, the "floating island" suddenly began to tremble.

It was as if the earth and mountains were shaking.

The dense forests collapsed, boulders rolled down, stirring up huge waves in the waters. The thick Turtle Shell had long lost its golden luster, becoming mottled and unsightly, but as the Golden Pattern reemerged, shaking off all the filth, the underlying brilliance of black gold finally revealed itself.

The sleeping Turtle Demon finally raised its head, issuing a hoarse yet long-lasting growl.

At the same moment, the tortures endured for tens of thousands of years were all reflected onto Shen Yi, the Hall Master.

His tall figure suddenly stooped.

An overwhelming fatigue infiltrated his limbs, a profound sense of powerlessness as if even his fingertips were too heavy to lift.

Beneath the swaying strands of hair, his pale face remained youthful and handsome, but his eyes were filled with the breath of nearing the end of days.

In an instant, the gates of Chi Ming Immortal City burst open.

A dense purple aura, like a giant dragon, roared toward him, piercing through Shen Yi's body and converging into a set of Black Light Mystery Armor around his limbs, contoured to his joints, lifting his falling body back to stability.

The Jin Guang within the purple aura swept away, transforming into a jade crown for his hair.

"Heh... "

Shen Yi, with his Golden Pattern Mo Dao supporting him amidst the clouds, steadied his staggering posture.

A glimpse of resignation flashed through his clear eyes.

The lifespan of the demon was spent, in the end, he had to bear the sin as well.

Once the glow on the profound armor faded and the doors of Chi Ming Immortal City were about to close, another shadow that covered the sky rushed out and landed on the throne of the Northern Palace.

[Northern Hall Master: Turtle Demon Wu Jun]

[Remaining Demon Lifespan Years: Eight hundred twenty thousand]

Also a half-human, half-turtle creature, with a profound gaze, it likewise overlooked the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, the majestic aura it exuded was not weaker than that of Ke Shisan, the Dragon Descendant.

Shen Yi silently glanced at it.

Not bad, it has literally consumed over a million years of its own lifespan.

But... does this count as opening two cities at once?

Shen Yi waved his hand casually, and the Mo Dao and profound armor swiftly dissipated into smoke, quickly returning to the two Immortal Cities.

He had no intention of testing his Dao Soldier and armor with his own blade.

At the level of Hongmeng Heavenly Soldiers, unless in a fight to the death, it's already difficult to test their limits.

With that thought, Shen Yi closed his eyes, withdrawing his Divine Soul from the Infinite Demon Emperor, and in an instant, he transformed back into his Crimson Demon Power-infused form.

When he opened his eyes again, he was back in his own body, gazing at the horizon.

He brushed his fingertips lightly over the center of his forehead.

The magnificent purple Rainbow Bridge quickly receded back into his sea of consciousness, reforming into the twelve-story tall Immeasurable Demon Emperor Palace.

It was at this moment that Shen Yi finally experienced the transformation after his ascension.

His aura surged throughout his body, the uncontrollable Crimson Demon Power soared into the sky, parting the clouds and dissolving the illusive shadow of the Immortal City.

Even without considering the Dao Soldiers, the White Jade Capital itself was vastly different from the Return to Void Realm.

This was precisely why the Red-Eyed Mysterious Phoenix had been intentionally suppressed at the twelve level of the Return to Void Realm after staying in Heavenly Sword Sect for so many years. Only upon reaching this Boundary did one truly possess the power to stir up turmoil.
