Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Finally out, everyone grab them quickly!"

Seeing this scene, the people who had been unable to restrain themselves for a long time shouted, and then picked up the tools in their hands and gathered around the center of the handprint.

They knew that in a little while, these light spheres transformed from the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao would break through the protection and dissipate into the sky.

And when that time came, it would be their time to hunt.

"No, stop, everyone stop, there's something wrong!"

However, just when everyone was most excited, the red-haired, red-clothed man who had spoken earlier suddenly screamed as if he had discovered something.

Hearing this sentence, the crowd, who had been as chaotic as a swarm of bees, stopped instantly, looking at him in confusion, with doubts in their eyes.

This person's cultivation was as unfathomable as that of Daoist Nanshan, presumably also a cultivator who had reached the late stage of the凝海境 (Ninghai Realm), so people had to be wary.

"Look, this time, none of those light spheres are coming out."

Facing the surprised gazes cast by everyone, the red-haired, red-clothed man remained unmoved, pointed to the huge pit of the handprint below, and said coldly to everyone.

After hearing his words, everyone looked into the handprint with a belly full of doubts.

But with this one look, the excited expressions on everyone's faces instantly froze.

It should be known that there was a powerful protection in that handprint, and even cultivators in the 筑天境 (Zhutian Realm) could not rush into it.

Therefore, even though everyone knew that there was the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao that they dreamed of in that handprint, they had no choice but to feel helpless and anxious.

However, at a specific time of each year, a powerful force would erupt from this handprint, causing those light spheres to break through the handprint's protection and roam in front of everyone's eyes.

And this moment became the only opportunity for everyone to capture the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao.

The first wave of the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao erupted like this before.

But now this second wave of phenomena far exceeded everyone's expectations.

Because they found that the light spheres transformed from the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao were not pushed out of the protective force, but just gathered in the handprint, constantly surging up and down.

This appearance was as if some strange force was constantly stirring them below.

It was just that this force was too weak to send them out of the handprint's protection.

"What's going on here?"

After seeing this extremely strange scene, everyone's minds were filled with confusion. Cao Qinghua, Daoist Nanshan, and several other cultivators who had entered this place before were so surprised that they couldn't even speak.

They had never encountered such an incredible thing.

However, one thing they could be sure of was that this situation was definitely not the natural eruption of the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao, but rather seemed to be artificially manipulated.

It was as if there was a person hidden in this handprint, using his giant hand to constantly stir the light spheres up and down.

At this moment, they urgently wanted to rush in to see who was playing tricks and eating the light spheres that originally belonged to them, but because the protection of the handprint was extremely powerful, even cultivators in the 筑天境 (Zhutian Realm) could not break through it, let alone with their cultivation.

So even if their hearts were in a mess, all they could do at this time was to watch quietly.

Raging flames called 'anger' spread and surged among every cultivator, causing the veins on their foreheads to bulge high.

They had originally fantasized about catching more during this second wave of the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao.

But now, not only could they not catch anything, but they could only watch some strange force devour the already small amount of the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao one by one.

From the time they embarked on the path of cultivation until now, these great powers in the cultivation world had never felt the taste of frustration brought about by 'helplessness' so clearly as they did today.

"Humph, it's really damn annoying, making me happy for nothing, forget it, I'm not waiting!"

At this time, a burly and sturdy man with a giant axe on his shoulder seemed to have finally couldn't bear it any longer, muttered, and then flew down from the sky again, his face livid.

Seeing this, others thought for a while, and finally could only sigh helplessly and flew down to the ground from the sky.

Only some people, as if they were unwilling to give up, still guarded the giant pit of the handprint, to see if any miracles could happen.

But after waiting for a while, they finally despaired, sighed, shook their heads, and flew down.

"Senior Brother Cao, what should we do?"

The disciples of the 海澜宗 (Hai Lan Sect) were also listless and asked Cao Qinghua at this time.

"Forget it, we have already caught enough of the artistic conception of the Heavenly Dao in the previous wave, so there is no loss in stopping here, let's go back." Cao Qinghua turned his head and glanced at the still unchanged scene, and finally made up his mind.

Hearing his words, the people of the 海澜宗 (Hai Lan Sect) no longer waited, put away the wooden nets, and flew down to the Dengxian Platform in a uniform manner.

The retreat of the 海澜宗 (Hai Lan Sect) made others even less interested in waiting, so Daoist Nanshan and the others had no choice but to turn around and leave even if they were unwilling to give up.

"Rumble!"

Just as everyone turned around to give up, a very violent loud noise suddenly came from the handprint, and the entire earth shook again.

Seeing this scene, everyone was taken aback and hurriedly turned their heads to look, and found that at this time, the protective罩 (zhào, cover) covering the handprint actually had a trace of cracks. It was as if someone had rudely pried it open with brute force.

"What's going on again?"

Everyone's mouths were wide open. There were too many shocks brought to them this day, so many that their nerves were about to collapse.

They were completely confused and didn't know what was happening in this handprint.

At the same time, what everyone didn't notice was that just as they were dizzy, the strange smile on Chen Tian's face, who had been quietly behind them, became even stronger!
