A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

A crimson figure shot out of the blood mist in a flash, and it curled its fingers into a set of claws as it grabbed at the top of Han Li\'s head. Five powerful claw projections were unleashed from its fingertips, and the claw projections clashed directly with Han Li\'s fist projection.

A resounding boom rang out, and the projections from both sides disintegrated upon contact. Immediately thereafter, the crimson humanoid creature\'s arm exploded violently, and it was blown back by a burst of tremendous force, concealing it within the blood mist again.

Meanwhile, Han Li\'s body swayed slightly, and right as he steadied himself, a string of piercing howls suddenly rang out within the nearby cloud of blood mist.

Countless azure blades of wind erupted in all directions from the point where the sound was coming from, tearing a large section of the cloud of blood mist to shreds to open up a clear area, revealing Wyrm 8 locked in a fierce battle against another one of those crimson creatures. At this point, his Earthly Deity Avatar was already riddled with wounds, and it seemed that he was struggling immensely against his opponent.

Lu Kun\'s Earthly Deity Avatar had plummeted to the ground earlier, but it had since risen up to join forces with Lu Kun, and the pair were battling another crimson creature.

Right at this moment, the blood mist in the air churned slightly, and the crimson creature that had been sent flying by Han Li flew out once again, having already completely regenerated a new arm.

As soon as it emerged, it immediately sped toward Han Li as a crimson shadow once again.

Instead of retreating in the face of this oncoming assailant, Han Li charged forward to meet it once again, throwing several punches in succession to send it flying back through the air again while also leaving its body in tatters.

However, a series of crimson threads quickly shot out of the wounds on the creature\'s body, and those crimson threads tugged on one another to seal its wounds shut, following which it made another full recovery thanks to the surrounding blood mist.

No more than a few seconds had passed, and the crimson creature had made a full recovery once again before charging toward Han Li a third time.

Han Li\'s brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this.

This crimson creature was rather similar to the water giant that Lu Kun had summoned in the past. In particular, this was the perfect environment for it to thrive in, so it was virtually unkillable by ordinary brute force attacks.

If things were to continue like this, even if he could hold his own for now, Lu Kun and Wyrm 8 most likely weren\'t going to last very long at all, particularly considering they were already carrying severe injuries.

Meanwhile, the roars of a tiger were ringing out incessantly up above.

As it turned, there were six giant tigers formed by blood mist prowling around Gong Shuhong, and they were locked in a fierce battle against Wyrm 3.

Perhaps it was because he was having to simultaneously control the three humanoid crimson creatures, but at this moment, the crimson light around Gong Shuhong\'s body appeared to be slightly dim. In the face of the attacks from Wyrm 3\'s giant crimson sword, the tigers were firmly on the back foot, and at this rate, it seemed that it would only be a matter of time before Gong Shuhong was defeated.

"You\'re no match for me without your avatar! Die!"

A cold sneer appeared on Wyrm 3\'s face, and his aura suddenly swelled by severalfold, becoming rather violent and unstable.

At the same time, his entire body began to rapidly swell in size amid a burst of crimson light, and a series of crimson scales emerged all over his skin. A pair of thick dragon horns also sprouted out of his forehead, and his teeth had been replaced by a mouthful of sharp fangs. In the blink of an eye, he had taken on a half-human, half-wyrm form, and in particular, his arms had become incredibly thick and strong.

At the same time, crimson runes surged out of his huge sword in frenzy, and they were swirling around incessantly, causing all of the world\'s origin qi in the entire underground cavern to fluctuate in a wild and unstable manner. Countless specks of light appeared out of thin air, then gushed into the sword like the tide, following which the sword was swung viciously in Gong Shuhong\'s direction.

A resounding boom rang out, and a crescent-shaped sword projection that was close to 1,000 feet in length swept through the air. The surface of the sword projection was radiating bright red light, and from this red light was emanating a hint of extremely violent power of fire laws. As it passed through the air, all it left in its wake was a thin fiery red line, which caused the surrounding space to shimmer and warp.

Gong Shuhong hurriedly shot back in retreat upon seeing this, and at the same time, he raised both hands up into the air in unison to release a pair of crimson claws. The claws instantly swelled to several hundred feet in size, radiating dazzling light as they crossed over one another and positioned themselves in front of him.

At the same time, the six blood mist tigers before him also pounced forward, releasing a viscous pillar of crimson light out of each of their mouths to oppose the oncoming fiery red line.

The red thread sliced through the pair of claws with ease, then clashed with the pillars of crimson light.

A string of dull thumps rang out in rapid succession, and the pillars of light all exploded into huge clouds of blood mist, while the six blood mist tigers were also eradicated.

In the next instant, the fiery red thread abruptly blurred before appearing directly in front of Gong Shuhong, as if by instantaneous teleportation.

At the same time, a layer of translucent crimson light appeared over Gong Shuhong\'s body before transforming into a suit of glittering and translucent armor.

However, the suit of armor was no match for the fiery thread, which tore through the armor with ease before slicing into Gong Shuhong\'s body.

Dazzling crimson flames erupted violently, releasing vast law fluctuations that instantly inundated Gong Shuhong. At the same time, the entire space in a radius of several thousand feet around him began to warp violently, as if it were about to be incinerated.

After unleashing that attack, Wyrm 3\'s aura also diminished by as much as 50% to 60%.

All of a sudden, a blurry crimson shadow shot out of the scorching flames, then appeared several thousand feet away.

The crimson light then faded to reveal a thin and tall middle-aged who appeared to be around 40 years of age. He had a head of lifeless straw-like hair, a set of gaunt and sunken facial features, and he was so emaciated that he was virtually nothing more than a sack of skin and bones, but his eyes were glowing with a crimson gleam.

His aura was in a state of disarray, and his left arm had been severed at the shoulder, but strangely enough, not a single drop of blood was flowing out of the wound.

"I see you used a substitution technique," Wyrm 3 chuckled coldly upon seeing this, and a burst of fearsome law fluctuations began to emanate from his giant crimson sword once again before he slashed it in Gong Shuhong\'s direction.

Yet another vast sword projection was released, and as soon as the law fluctuations arose, the sword projection transformed into a thin fiery red thread once again, hurtling toward Gong Shuhong at an incredible speed.

However, this time, Gong Shuhong didn\'t try to take evasive measures, nor did he try to defend himself against the attack. Instead, a peculiar grin appeared on his face.

Right at this moment, a resounding boom rang out from the lake down below, and an incredibly thick pillar of crimson light erupted out of the lake, instantly appearing between Gong Shuhong and the fiery thread.

The fiery thread struck the pillar of crimson light amid a burst of violent rumbling, and the pillar of light trembled as if it were about to instantly crumble.

However, bursts of crimson light then erupted out of the crimson lake down below before injecting themselves into the pillar of light in a frenzy, allowing it to remain stable and firm in the face of the fiery thread.

The fiery thread quickly began to dim, and a few seconds later, it vanished into nothingness amid a dull thump.

Wyrm 3\'s pupils contracted slightly in incredulity upon seeing this.

"It\'s about time..." Gong Shuhong chuckled to himself, then raised his right arm as he began to chant a complex incantation.

Another thick pillar of blood rose up from the crimson lake down below in a revolving corkscrew fashion, and it transformed into a viscous churning cloud of blood before injecting itself into Gong Shuhong\'s body.

As a result, his aura began to rapidly recover, and a series of red threads emerged from the wound on his left shoulder before intertwining with one another, forming a brand new arm in the blink of an eye.

Immediately thereafter, an even more astonishing scene ensued as the crimson lake down below began to churn and tumble violently, releasing one thick pillar of crimson light after another.

There were close to 100 pillars of light in total, and they were connected by more beams of crimson light to form an enormous array.

The entire underground cavern was instantly basked in dazzling crimson radiance, and the smell of blood in the air became 10 times more pronounced, while a burst of peculiar law fluctuations swept through the area.

Han Li was in the process of battling the humanoid crimson creature when his heart began to thump violently once again. All of the blood in his body began to churn before flooding back into his heart, instantly slowing his movements.

However, he only swayed slightly for a moment before steadying himself, but a hint of alarm flashed through his eyes.

Meanwhile, Lu Kun and Wyrm 8 were also affected by this burst of blood law fluctuations, which had caught them completely off guard. Thankfully, both of them were able to react very quickly, and with the assistance of their Earthly Deity Avatars, no opportunity arose for their opponents to exploit.

However, at this point, the light radiating from their bodies had become quite dim, and it was clear that the power of faith that they had accumulated up to this point was quickly running out. At the same time, both of them were quite far away from their respective islands, so there was no way for them to replenish their powers of faith.

In the air above, Wyrm 3 was just about to pounce at his opponent when an unnatural flush abruptly appeared on his face, and it was clear that the power of laws of blood had had a significant effect on him as well.

However, all it took was a quick hand seal and a deep breath for his complexion to return to normal, but even so, he was also quite alarmed by this turn of events.

Right as all of this was unfolding in the underground cavern, the entirety of the Kun province\'s Red Moon City began to rumble violently, as if an earthquake were taking place.

All of the rivers running throughout the city had also turned bright red, as if there were blood flowing through them.

The city\'s residents and those who were attending the pilgrimage were all panicked and bewildered by this disturbing sight, and none of them had any idea what was happening.

Before they had a chance to do anything, bursts of loud rumbling began to ring out incessantly.

All of a sudden, close to 100 pillars of crimson light rose up around Red Moon City, forming an enormous crimson light barrier that encompassed the entire city, enveloping it in a bloody and oppressive aura.

"What\'s going on?"

Not only were the ordinary civilians in the city at a complete loss, even the mid and high-grade blue-robed cultivators were completely bewildered and unsure of what to do.

Countless eye-shaped diagrams of different sizes appeared on the crimson light barrier in a flash, and all of them began to blink.

Countless beams of crimson light then shot out of the eyes before raining down upon the city.

Every single person that came into contact with the beams of crimson light instantly turned bright red, and their bodies swelled rapidly in size before exploding before they even had a chance to cry out.

In what seemed like no more than the blink of an eye, the lively and bustling city was already completely devoid of life. Blood began to flow over the ground in the city, only to quickly vanish into the ground as if it had been sucked away.

Meanwhile, the exact same thing was happening in all of the Red Moon Cities in all of the provinces on the entire island. Every single one of those cities had been enshrouded under an enormous crimson light barrier, which instantly robbed all of the living beings in the city of their life force, transforming them into fresh blood that seeped into the ground.

If one were to look down at Red Moon Island from high up in the sky, they would discover that all of the main rivers on the entire island had turned as red as blood.

The bodies of water formed a complex network, but ultimately, all of them were flowing toward the center, converging to the Kun province\'s Red Moon City.

At this moment, Red Moon Island resembled a blood moon hanging over the dark sea.
