Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

"Good timing!"

The Holy Sword Town strikes down, but Indra, unfazed, raises his trident and ascends to the heavens, ready to confront the enemy head-on.

With the help of that strange force, he has reclaimed the authority of the Brahma Heavenly Emperor and is now a Peak Earth Immortal with even the potential to break through to Heavenly Immortal. His strength has explosively increased.

Although his opponent is more terrifying, being the Master of Fate, who holds the great power of heaven and earth, Indra, a Ninth Order Human Immortal, could not have escaped without taking any damage from the direct collision with the power of the Three Phases just now.

With the give-and-take of this confrontation, I will surely be able to...

"Boom!!!"

Before his thoughts could settle, Indra is suppressed. The Holy Sword Town slashes down with a force far beyond measure. Indra raises his trident in a desperate attempt to meet the attack, but he is still overwhelmed by the sword, crushed like a falling meteor. The divine authority he had reclaimed in such dire straits is unable to contend with the opponent.

"How is this possible!?"

Such an outcome is hard to accept. Indra roars in unwillingness to admit defeat, still wanting to counterattack, but the ground beneath him trembles, revealing that the Brahman Divine Domain is collapsing, and the pressure of the Positive and Negative Nine Forms Sword Formation intensifies in an instant.

Under the relentless assault of the scholars from the Scholar's Palace, the Brahman gods were already struggling to hold on. Now, witnessing the power of the Three Phases broken and the Brahma Heavenly Emperor falling into demonhood, such a sight is like the final straw that completely crushes the Brahman gods to the ground, and the teetering Brahman Divine Domain crumbles along with them.

With the collapse of the Brahman Divine Domain, the force of heaven and earth flows unobstructed, and the power of the Sword Array surges accordingly.

Nine Forms and Three Talents, under the immense pressure of heaven and earth, Indra feels the weight of Mount Tai upon him, his body wailing as it fails to hold up.

Yet, his opponent shows no mercy, slashing down with another sword, striking heavily upon his demonized body.

"Pfft!!!"

A muffled sound is heard as the body and head are cleaved in two. The Brahma Heavenly Demon, who couldn't dodge or defend in time, is beheaded by this sword. Without giving it a chance to regenerate, a Five-Colored Light Prohibition follows, capturing everything and devouring the head and body of the demon entirely.

With this battle, the dust settles, leaving everyone in a daze and unable to react, even the ranks of Immortal Gods watching through the live broadcast are left speechless.

Is it over just like that?

Weren't they supposed to be ten times stronger when corrupted?

How were they suppressed in an instant?

The crowd is stunned into silence, and Xu Yang, too, stays silent, merely withdrawing the Sword Domain and then says to the other scholars from outside the formation: "The Demon Head has been exterminated; those who surrender will not be killed!"

Having said this, he leaves with a flick of his sleeve, leaving the rest to clean up the aftermath.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The scholars from the Taoist Academy fall silent, then shift their gaze towards the remaining gods of Brahman, skillfully springing into action.

"Spare those who surrender!"

"Capture them all!"

"Clear the battlefield, leave nothing behind!"

"The Brahman Sect has fallen into the Demon Path; from today their teachings shall be prohibited and their disciples and followers strictly monitored and judged; sweep their Divine Domain, destroy their gates, and all assets obtained shall be confiscated..."

The scholars from the Taoist Academy issue orders one by one, clearing the battlefield, settling the aftermath.

The battle of Demon Extermination, the struggle between Immortal Gods, thus comes to an end.

"This...!?"

As the live broadcast ends and the image stops, the audience has yet to regain their senses, let alone clear their thoughts, the Immortal Gods among them stir.

Thinking back to Indra, who transformed into a demon in an instant and was then defeated just as quickly, all the Immortal Gods are deeply furrowed with brows, feeling a heavy sense of oppression in their hearts.

The Brahma Heavenly Emperor, fallen into the Demon Path!

Could that rumor be true that the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit from that year was actually a ruse by the Outer Realm Demons?

Back then, the great Divine Systems fought fiercely over it, and in the end, the Golden Immortal Demonic Fruit was split, with all parties receiving a portion, not monopolized by the Brahman Sect alone.

Now that something has gone wrong with the Brahman Sect and with the Heavenly Emperor, who was sealed in the Great Freedom Heaven along with the Three Forms God, having fallen into demonhood, what is the state of the remaining Three Forms God still in Great Freedom Heaven?

And what of those Taoist Masters, Immortals, Buddhas, and Divine Beings that obtained a portion of the Golden Immortal Demonic Fruit back then? Have they also been tainted by this fruit, afflicted with Demon Poison, unable to extricate themselves?

If that is indeed the case, then isn't this world on the verge of great peril?

Within the world's Tao Lineage, there are six top-tier Divine Systems, collectively known as the six great Divine Systems: the Immortal Taoist Xuan Sect of the east, the Buddhist Sect of the west, along with the Brahman Sect, the Heavenly Kingdom Holy Hall, Olympus, and Asgard.

The leaders of these six great Divine Systems are all divine beings at the pinnacle of the world. Beneath them, there are two to three Heavenly Immortals, and in addition to other Tao Lineages and Divine Systems, there are nearly thirty Heavenly Immortals in total.

If all these thirty Heavenly Immortals are tainted by the Golden Immortal Demonic Fruit, wouldn't this world be on the brink of collapse?

Who can withstand thirty demonized Heavenly Immortals?

Not to mention the Desire Realm, eyeing covetously, the Demon Lord Boxun was able to counterfeit the Golden Immortal Demonic Fruit, deceiving the heavens and crossing the sea, leading all the major Divine Systems into conflict, and eventually into his killing scheme, corrupting them with the fruit. This kind of ability... could it be that he is a Golden Immortal?

The Immortals do not know, the gods are unaware, their hearts filled with fear, no longer preoccupied with past events.

It's not that their Dao Hearts aren't firm, swaying with the wind like grass, but the shock of Indra's demonization is too great, tied to the fate of the Three Forms God and the entire Brahman Sect, extending to all the major Divine Systems sinking in it. Even for Immortal Gods and divine beings, facing such disaster feels like an overwhelming catastrophe at hand, leaving them helpless.

What to do, what to do!

In the Emei Golden Pill, Ren Baimei stands with his hands behind his back, also speechless for a long time.

Until someone rushes to him and says, "Master, your senior martial uncle has sent a letter, inviting you to meet at Eight Scenic Palace!"

"..."

Ren Baimei remains silent, and after a moment, finally responds, "Understood, you may go down!"

"Yes!"

The person nods and respectfully prepares to leave.

"Wait!"

But Ren Baimei calls him back and directs a Spirit Light into his chest, saying, "Take this invitation to the Wandao School... to the Master of the Alliance Heavenly Tao!"

"The Master of the Alliance Heavenly Tao?"
