"How is this possible? This is absolutely impossible! How could a mere Golden Immortal block the strongest attack from sixteen Da Luo Golden Immortals, especially when they’ve all summoned the three Immortal Flowers above their heads? Under these conditions, even a Profound Immortal would have to tread carefully..." At this moment, a pale elder nearby was filled with terror—clearly, he simply couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
The crowd around was even more stunned. Right now, in their eyes, Ryan Ling had already gone beyond god-mode.
As for those dozen-plus Da Luo Golden Immortals, they were even more shocked. This time, they knew better than anyone—they’d each unleashed their strongest moves. With those techniques, any powerhouse would be ground to dust by time itself; survival was absolutely impossible, especially for someone like Ryan Ling, a Golden Immortal!
But what was happening in front of them left them utterly stunned!
"Quick, quick, go notify the Count—get him over here, now!" The leading Da Luo Golden Immortal shouted without hesitation. Clearly, they couldn’t hold out any longer; only a stronger force could take control of the situation.
"Got it!" The brothers nearby didn’t hesitate for a second and immediately tried to break out. At this point, sticking around to fight Ryan Ling was pointless—besides, let’s be real, there’s no way they could win.
But just as several Da Luo Golden Immortals frantically tried to break out, some nameless force shoved them all back—each one landed face-first like a bunch of clowns.
"No good! We can’t break out—the whole space around us seems sealed!" one Da Luo Golden Immortal shouted. The others’ eyes were filled with fear.
"Impossible! Even if this punk’s power is off the charts, there’s no way he could just lock us down. He doesn’t have that kind of skill..." The lead Da Luo Golden Immortal simply couldn’t believe it. With their current strength, escaping should’ve been a breeze.
Right then, the lead Da Luo Golden Immortal didn’t hesitate at all—forget pride, he went all-out and charged like crazy. But to his shock, even with his full strength, he couldn’t break through that invisible barrier around them!
Right now, the lead Da Luo Golden Immortal’s face was deathly pale—he just couldn’t believe what was happening.
"Trying to run? None of you are leaving today!" Ryan Ling smiled faintly from afar, his eyes radiating pure confidence. Earlier, he’d felt a bit outmatched trying to capture these Da Luo Golden Immortals, but as long as he could tank their three Immortal Flowers attack, they’d never get a single advantage from him—and his own power would skyrocket!
"Screw it, let’s go all out!" The lead Da Luo Golden Immortal knew he was cornered. He started gathering all his strength for one last desperate fight against Ryan Ling!
The other Da Luo Golden Immortals didn’t hesitate either. For them, this was the ultimate crisis—everyone instantly pushed their power to the max, ready for a final life-or-death battle.
But no matter how wild they got, Ryan Ling wasn’t fazed at all. He just looked at the whole scene with pure contempt. Clearly, these guys couldn’t hurt him no matter what they tried—his power could handle everything.
Ryan Ling’s gaze was already locked onto the Count’s Manor in the distance. He could sense that the real masters were inside—and right now, their eyes were already fixed on him.
"Kill!" The Da Luo Golden Immortals didn’t hesitate—they’d launched their most desperate attack. Every one of them charged at Ryan Ling with everything they had, treating this as their final, ultimate battle!
Right now, the Demon-Dragon City spectators all felt uneasy. After all, these Da Luo Golden Immortals were the city’s top powerhouses. Sure, they’d done plenty of evil, but they were still the icons of an era. Yet now, in Ryan Ling’s hands, these Da Luo Golden Immortals couldn’t even move!
"You guys aren’t even qualified to fight me anymore. Time to send you Da Luo Golden Immortals straight to the afterlife!" Ryan Ling didn’t hesitate—these guys weren’t opponents anymore. Once he locked them down, he started sucking away their essence bit by bit. With Primeval Heavenwood backing him, they were perfect fuel!
As the fight dragged on, Ryan Ling’s power just kept growing. He could feel it—if he managed to absorb all these Da Luo Golden Immortals at once, then refine the two already inside him, and melt down all eighteen, he’d hit Golden Immortal great-perfection for sure!
"All in! We’re going all in!" All the Da Luo Golden Immortals were screaming now, and the spectators’ eyes went wide—no one ever expected these once untouchable Da Luo Golden Immortals to end up so pathetically. It was unbelievable.
Even fighting with everything they had, they were totally out of options—there was just no way out.
Under Ryan Ling’s world-shaking moves, the weaker Da Luo Golden Immortals started exploding one by one. The scene was absolutely jaw-dropping—no one could believe it.
"Count, save us! If you don’t come now, we’re really done for!" The lead Da Luo Golden Immortal screamed in desperation. By now, at least seven or eight Da Luo Golden Immortals had completely blown apart.
Ryan Ling was going wild, devouring the essence of these powerhouses. He was totally hyped, his whole body overflowing with energy. He could feel it—soon, he’d reach the very top of the Golden Immortal Realm!
And as his power kept growing, Ryan Ling’s control over Demon-Dragon City’s qi became sharper than ever. He could even vaguely sense a demon dragon roaring nearby—his mastery of the city’s aura was at its peak!

He wanted to sense the aura of the Primeval Heavenwood Main Trunk, but to his disappointment, he couldn’t pick up anything—the main trunk was hidden way too deep. No way he could find it at this critical moment!
But Ryan Ling didn’t dwell on it. Getting this far was already a huge win—he wasn’t going to get greedy. Everything had to be step by step. Right now, he had to melt down these Da Luo Golden Immortal auras as fast as possible to stack his own power!
Every crazy power-up made his body and soul more in sync. He could even faintly sense a trace of Da Luo Golden Immortal’s essence inside himself—Da Luo Golden Immortal was insanely tough, the hardest thing in all cultivation, nothing else even came close!
Ryan Ling was charging down this path. But just then, a thunderous boom rang out—his rampage had finally enraged the entire Count’s Manor. The Count had been discussing something big inside, but now he was forced to come out.
"Who the hell are you to attack the Count’s Manor and challenge me? I’m going to butcher you today!" The one yelling wasn’t anyone else—it was the Count himself.
The Count was obviously Demon-Dragon City’s strongest. Ryan Ling could sense that the Count’s power had reached Da Luo Golden Immortal great-perfection—literally world-shaking. No one could match him. When he threw a punch, Ryan Ling couldn’t help but step back. The force was absolutely terrifying!
And it wasn’t just the Count—several peak Da Luo Golden Immortals appeared beside him. They all looked wild and fierce, faces twisted and menacing, and their killing intent shot straight up, like they were about to tear the sky apart!
"These are Demon-Dragon City’s real top dogs—the Count’s brothers, five in total, known as the Five Dragons!"
