Chapter 4967

After thinking for a moment, Kai suddenly had an idea and took out the Demon Suppression Tower.

The internal space of the Demon Suppression Tower was vast. If he could store the immortal stone vein inside it, he would have an endless supply of resources to cultivate within the tower.

However, Kai had never attempted this before and wasn’t sure if the Demon Suppression Tower could hold other items like a storage ring.

As his thoughts turned, the Demon Suppression Tower began to radiate light.

To his amazement, the entire immortal stone vein was pulled into the Demon Suppression Tower in an instant!

In just the blink of an eye, the vast vein had completely vanished into the tower.

Overjoyed at his success, Kai quickly entered the Demon Suppression Tower. Inside, he saw the immortal stone vein intact, and the surrounding immortal energy was incredibly rich. Cultivating here would yield twice the result with half the effort.

“Let’s go…”

Kai called to Gadfly, and the two left the treasure land.

Before leaving, Kai restored the formation that protected the area, intending to deceive anyone who might come across the site in the future.

Upon returning to the City Lord’s Mansion, Kai said nothing and immediately entered the Demon Suppression Tower to begin cultivating.

He was determined to break through to the Scattered Immortal Realm as quickly as possible.

Although he had already reached the ninth level of the Immortal Realm, there was still a fundamental difference between that and the Scattered Immortal stage.

If he succeeded in this breakthrough, he would be unmatched throughout the Heavenly Realm.

Inside the Demon Suppression Tower, Kai sat cross-legged at the center of the immortal stone vein. The immortal energy swirling around him became so dense it nearly turned tangible, rushing into his meridians like a river reversing course.

Time passed swiftly in the tower. Though only a month passed in the outside world, nearly ten years flowed within the tower.

Kai’s robes had grown tattered with age, riddled with holes, but his eyes now shone with startling clarity, reflecting the flickering runes around him.

The Condensation Heart Technique absorbed immortal energy at an astonishing rate. His meridians, like dry riverbeds struck by a violent downpour, began to crack under the impact of the surging Yuan force.
Veins bulged on Kai’s forehead, and blood trickled from the corners of his mouth. Suddenly, he bit his tongue and used his own essence and blood as a medium, forcing the scattered immortal power to converge in his dantian.

He knew he had reached the critical moment to break through to the Scattered Immortal Realm…

Outside, dark clouds above the City Lord’s Mansion began to swirl into a vortex.

Lightning danced within it like silver serpents, and the thunderous roars were so powerful they sent birds within a hundred miles crashing to the ground.

The cultivators guarding the city drew their magical weapons, staring at the sky in terror—this phenomenon was even more frightening than the time the demon army had attacked.

Inside the Demon Suppression Tower, Kai’s hair stood on end, and ancient demon-suppressing emblems appeared all over his body.

These marks twisted like living things, forcefully suppressing and refining the violent immortal energy within him.

With a roar that shook the very earth, Kai’s body burst into radiant golden light, which pierced through the tower and shot straight into the sky.

The lightning in the vortex was drawn toward the golden beam and struck the Demon Suppression Tower like a barrage of arrows. But the moment they touched the golden light, the lightning turned into starlight and merged into it.

“Boom!”

A thunderous explosion echoed from the tower, and Kai’s aura surged wildly.

He slowly opened his eyes, which now gleamed with starlike brilliance. The unique pressure of a Scattered Immortal swept out in waves like a rising tide.

The Demon Suppression Tower trembled violently, and the runes etched across its surface grew brighter, as if celebrating Kai’s transformation.

Outside the tower, Gadfly and the others gripped their weapons tightly, hearts pounding as if they might leap from their chests.

He had never witnessed such a terrifying sight and silently prayed for Kai’s safety.

Across the many regions of the First Heaven, powerful beings turned their eyes toward Rhino City, expressions filled with shock and confusion.

None could fathom what kind of existence was powerful enough to cause such a terrifying phenomenon of heaven and earth.
