Chapter 2617: Unable to Devour! Translator: Legge The everlasting night and boundless darkness crept forth. Instantly, the world went dark and the heavens lost its light! Immortal King Long Night used his Grotto-heaven Spirit Treasure to restrain the Hell Suppression Tripod while the major Grotto-heaven behind him devoured the figure of the Martial Dao Prime Body! “It’s all over.” When the Immortal Kings saw that, they shook their heads gently. As long as Desolate Martial fell into the major Grotto-heaven of Immortal King Long Night, he would be reduced to fish that could be slaughtered at will no matter how shocking his methods were! Immortal Queen Ling Long frowned worriedly. On the side of the Fiend Domain, Feng Cantian took a deep breath and suppressed his urge to attack, continuing to watch. The Martial Dao Prime Body had repeatedly instructed him not to attack. He believed that the Martial Dao Prime Body would not die so easily! In the Long Night Grotto-heaven, the gaze of the Martial Dao Prime Body intensified. Purple flames burned in his eyes and his blood qi surged as he channeled his bloodline to its limits, releasing his Bloodline Phenomenon, the Heaven and Earth Furnace! Boom! The Martial Dao Prime Body stood in the darkness and shone with an endless brilliance as flames surged into the skies! The flames included the Martial Spirit Fire, Tribulation Fire, Red Lotus Karmic Fire, Dragon Phoenix Flame and Hellfire. Despite the buff of so many flames, he was still unable to go against the Long Night Grotto-heaven. However, it was also impossible for the Long Night Grotto-heaven to devour and refine the Martial Dao Prime Body! For example, Hellfire originated from Avici. Due to the cultivation realm of the Martial Dao Prime Body, its power was far inferior to when it was in Avici. However, the Long Night Grotto-heaven could not refine it at all! Initially, the Grotto-heaven was dark and silent. However, after devouring the Martial Dao Prime Body, a gigantic ball of flames appeared in the Grotto-heaven. Both parties were in a stalemate. The blood qi of the Martial Dao Prime Body was strong and even as timed passed by, the flames burned furiously without stopping. However, the power of the Long Night Grotto-heaven was being depleted! When Immortal King Long Night sensed this, his expression darkened. On the battlefield. Heavenly King Luo Shen chanted a Buddhist proclamation softly and said, “Patron Long Night, you sure are capable. Your merits for killing Perfected Fiend Desolate Martial are immeasurable. However, the Hell Suppression Tripod is a sacred item of the Buddhist monasteries. Patron Long Night, please return it to its rightful owner.” Immortal King Qing Yang smiled gently. “The Hell Suppression Tripod is an Emperor weapon. It’s said to be connected to the Infinite Hell and a Taboo Mystic Classic.” “Fellow Daoist Luo Shen, you’re not the only one. I believe everyone present is interested in the Hell Suppression Tripod.” Immortal King Chi Ping said indifferently, “The Hell Suppression Tripod no longer has an owner. Since we’re all present, we can’t hand it over to someone casually.” The Immortal Kings present thought that Desolate Martial would definitely die and had already begun to discuss the ownership of the Hell Suppression Tripod. Right then, a violent fluctuation came from the major Grotto-heaven of Immortal King Long Night! In the endless darkness, a flame appeared and intensified. Immediately after, the ball of flames fell onto the battlefield. In the flames, a figure stood—it was Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain! “Mmm?” The Immortal Kings frowned. What was going on? The Long Night Grotto-heaven failed to refine Desolate Martial and spat him out instead? Sensing the gazes around him, Immortal King Long Night had a terrible expression as he grit his teeth. “This fiend is in possession of strange Dharmic Daos and controls many powerful flames. It’s difficult to refine him.” “Amitabha.” Heavenly King Luo Shen strode forward. “Seems like I’m the only one who can subdue this fiend!” When Heavenly King Luo Shen arrived before the Martial Dao Prime Body, he summoned his major Grotto-heaven without a second word. A Buddhist light shone from within and auspicious clouds filled the skies, enveloping the Martial Dao Prime Body! Thereafter, Heavenly King Luo Shen assumed a lotus position and hovered in midair. He held prayer beads in his hands and chanted Buddhist Dharmic incantations softly. The Dharmic incantations turned into golden runes that entered the major Grotto-heaven behind him. Before long, Heavenly King Luo Shen fiddled with the prayer beads in his hands faster and faster and a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. A moment later, he suddenly stood up. A figure shrouded in flames flew out from the major Grotto-heaven that was filled with Buddhist light behind him— it was Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain! It was not just the Grotto-heavens of the immortal sects; even the Grotto-heavens of the Buddhist monasteries could not refine the Martial Dao Prime Body! “Fufu… The Martial Dao Prime Body chuckled and surveyed his surroundings. His gaze swept past the faces of Immortal King Qing Yang and the others and he mocked, “Is that all there is to the Supreme Immortal Kings of the two domains?” “In my opinion, there’s no need for you guys to hold the Nine Firmament Meet again in the future. It’ll just be a joke.” “Fiend, how brazen!” “How arrogant!” The Immortal Kings were enraged. Even the 20-odd Supreme Immortal Kings of the two domains revealed sinister killing intent. At the Immortal King realm, one was almost at the peak of the upper world and could rule over millions of living beings—they could not withstand any humiliation or provocation. Furthermore, cultivators of both domains were gathered here and everyone was watching. If they could not suppress Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain, the Immortal Kings of the two domains would probably become jokes of the upper world after today! There were not many Immortal Kings who could remain calm. Immortal Queen Ling Long could tell that the words of the Martial Dao Prime Body were clearly meant to anger many Immortal Kings present, including the Supreme Immortal Kings. However, she truly could not figure out the meaning behind the actions of the Martial Dao Prime Body. She could only guess the consequences of the actions of the Martial Dao Prime Body. Initially, for the sake of their dignity, the Supreme Immortal Kings present were embarrassed to join forces against a Supreme Perfected Fiend. Now that they were provoked by the Martial Dao Prime Body, there was a high chance that the 20-odd Supreme Immortal Kings would join forces to suppress the Martial Dao Prime Body in their rage! “Don’t waste your breath on him.” Immortal King Long Night grit his teeth and said, “This person’s Dharmic Dao is strange. Let’s release our major Grotto-heavens and join forces to destroy him!” “Exactly. ” Heavenly King Luo Shen said in a deep voice, “Since I can’t devour and refine this fiend, I can only crush his body and bloodline to purify him forcefully!” “Come on, let’s see how much longer this fiend can last against our combined forces!” Immortal King Qing Yang expressed his stance as well. In the blink of an eye, 19 Supreme Immortal Kings stood out and surrounded the Martial Dao Prime Body. The 19 Supreme Immortal Kings released their major Grotto-heavens in unison. Instantly, the world changed! On the battlefield, 19 major Grotto-heavens with different Dharmic Daos appeared and crushed towards the Martial Dao Prime Body with a terrifying aura! Immortal Queen Ling Long’s heart skipped a beat and she stood up instinctively. Under such circumstances, even if she was in his position, she would not be able to escape. The 19 major Grotto-heavens had already sealed all exits in all directions! Desolate Martial might be able to avoid being devoured and refined by a Grotto-heaven due to some strange Dharmic Dao, but there was no way he could defend against the suppression of 19 major Grotto-heavens! Immortal Queen Ling Long had just seen it clearly. Although Desolate Martial was not refined by Immortal King Long Night and Heavenly King Luo Shen’s Grotto-heavens, he suffered quite a blow and his aura became much weaker. If the 19 major Grotto-heavens crushed over at the same time, there was only a single outcome for Desolate Martial—his body and Essence Spirit would be destroyed!
