Chapter 1112: Deducing the Demon Immortal’s True Spirit
Editor: Henyee Translations

As long as Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t find the true body of the Demon Immortal’s true spirit, it would continue to recover until the entire Floodgate Realm was destroyed.

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Jiang Chengxuan began his deduction immediately after the battle ended.

Not only was the Demon Immortal at its weakest now, but the intense causality from their recent clash was also at its peak.

Immersed in the world of deduction, Jiang Chengxuan used the Heavenly Calculation Technique to clear away layers of fog, following the line of causality.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

On the other hand, the Demon Immortal continuously used its power to obscure the celestial mechanisms, creating barriers of irrelevant information to block Jiang Chengxuan’s progress.

This invisible battlefield was like a game of chess, with Jiang Chengxuan and the Demon Immortal moving their pieces strategically.

On one side was a semi-immortal possessing the seventh layer of Heavenly Calculation Technique; on the other was a true spirit of a demon immortal, mastering immortal rules.

Both had transcended the world’s understanding of celestial mechanisms, reaching incredible levels.

Even Qin Shenwu and others, who were guarding Jiang Chengxuan and did not understand the art of deduction, felt an intense, unseen clash occurring in another dimension.

The leaked aura sent shivers down their spines. Under the influence of this energy, the heavens darkened, and red lightning flickered in the void as if spying on something.

Yet, even the lightning could not disrupt the battle of celestial mechanisms.

Despite the Demon Immortal’s efforts to obscure the truth, Jiang Chengxuan held the upper hand.

Being a native of the Floodgate Realm, he had a deeper understanding and connection to the realm’s celestial mechanisms and causality.

Moreover, the Demon Immortal was weakened from the loss of part of its true spirit, making it less effective.

Gradually, images began to form in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind, tracing the Demon Immortal’s whereabouts. He saw the initial descent of the catastrophe, with the Demon Immortal awakening under the shadows and black sun, slaughtering nations to absorb dark power and refining corpses into the Corpse-Combining Immortal.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan’s expression hardened, and he intensified his deduction power. Next, he saw the Demon Immortal at the Sacred Skeleton Sect ruins, using the remnants of the Absolute Heaven Array to set up the Black Sun Array. It summoned the undead spirits of Daolord Skeleton and others, creating a second Corpse-Combining Immortal.

This revealed to Jiang Chengxuan that the power given to Daolord Skeleton and others during the battle to annihilate the Sacred Skeleton Sect was a trap.

The Demon Immortal had intended to turn them into puppets upon its arrival. The Demon Immortal had never planned to honor its agreement with the sect’s Daolords; it had always intended to betray them.

Witnessing this, Jiang Chengxuan felt a mix of anger and pity for his former enemies, now revealed to have been manipulated all along.

“It ends now!”

Jiang Chengxuan resolved. The next image showed the current hiding place of the Demon Immortal’s true spirit. It was time to make the Demon Immortal pay.

As Jiang Chengxuan unleashed more deduction power to break through the Demon Immortal’s obfuscations, the celestial mechanisms blurred, and all causality was severed.

In the Eastern Sea, the Demon Immortal sat at the edge of the barrier, pale-faced, chanting over a dark skull that emitted an endless devouring force, consuming all causality linked to it.

This was the Demon Immortal’s last resort against Jiang Chengxuan’s relentless pursuit.

“With the Devouring Skull, even a true immortal can’t find me today!”

“Accursed wretch! Just wait until I revive completely; I’ll slaughter the Haoran Sect first!”

The Demon Immortal’s face twisted in rage as it invoked the skull’s power, confident Jiang Chengxuan could not find it now.

Back in the Floodgate Realm, Jiang Chengxuan sensed the dissipating causality and realized the Demon Immortal was using some hidden technique.

With a cold snort, he retrieved the final deduction orb and absorbed it without hesitation.

An immense surge of deduction power exploded within Jiang Chengxuan, causing the heavens to rage with thunder and lightning as the celestial mechanisms went wild.

The obfuscating power was shattered, and the threads of deduction wove into a single cord, binding the remnants of the Demon Immortal’s causality.

“Boom!”

A thunderous crash echoed in the Eastern Sea, startling the Demon Immortal. The concealing power around it shattered, and it felt a cold, penetrating gaze.

“Found you.”

Jiang Chengxuan’s cold voice echoed in the Demon Immortal’s mind, shaking it to its core. In the Floodgate Realm, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes snapped open, dispersing the celestial energy.

“Everyone, the Demon Immortal is at the Eastern Sea. Follow me!”

Wasting no time, Jiang Chengxuan activated the Haoran Dragon Seal, opening a massive portal of celestial light. Without the hindrance of the catastrophe’s shadows, they could now traverse the void to the Eastern Sea instantly.

In an instant, Jiang Chengxuan stepped through the portal, followed closely by everyone, holding their celestial treasures. They emerged at the seabed of the Eastern Sea, facing a figure shrouded in shadow, its eyes filled with murderous intent.
