Chapter 423: I'll Give You a Chance to Strike
As the Holy Chancellor hesitated, the Primordial Immortal King stepped out of the Reincarnation Whirlpool, revealing his figure to the immortal beings.
The Primordial Immortal King stood tall, his robe tattered, with only strips of cloth covering his upper body, gently fluttering in the wind. His long hair cascaded over his shoulders, and he exuded a wild and fierce aura.
His hair, like ancient rivers, flowed with a dragon's might, causing the Great Dao Spirit Energy in the surroundings to twist and create a visual spectacle.
He seemed to have come from ancient times, or from the source of the river of time, carrying an awe-inspiring presence that made all living beings feel suffocated as he descended upon the Heavenly Spirit Great World.
The immortal beings gazed at him with reverence and anticipation in their eyes.
Below the Reincarnation Whirlpool, the silhouettes emitted an aura similar to the Primordial Immortal King, silent and chilling.
They didn't show any surprise at the sight of the Primordial Immortal King; instead, they were exhilarated, as if they knew what was about to happen, and they were ready to participate.
"Huff..."
The Primordial Immortal King slightly opened his mouth, exhaling a scorching breath. His eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, but his pupils gradually regained their brilliance.
His gaze first fell upon the silhouettes below, then shifted towards the distant multitude of immortal beings.
In the face of his gaze, the immortal beings still felt fear, and some even subconsciously retreated.
Unlike their imagination, this Primordial Immortal King emanated a dangerous aura, making them feel eerie and terrified.
"Now..."
The Primordial Immortal King spoke, his voice hoarse, adding to the oppressive atmosphere in the void beyond the heavens.
Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly opened his mouth and roared.
This roar shook the heavens and the earth, and every living being in the Heavenly Spirit Great World heard it. Even the Heavenly Demon Child, Tian Qing, and Tian Bai, who were hiding in the Nianchu Cave Mansion, and the Deep Sea Dragon Carp in the Qianling Palace, were startled.
They all felt as if they had been suddenly awakened from a dream, for the roar of the Primordial Immortal King was not just a sound but a soul-shaking force.
Upon hearing his roar, all living beings felt fear and couldn't remain calm.
The living beings on the land saw the Primordial Immortal King's giant phantom appear in the sky, like a mirage, and his roaring figure filled them with a sense of oppression, causing their hearts to race.
At this moment, Gu An stood on the streets of the Outer Gate City, and all the cultivators around him looked up at the Heavendome with expressions of fear.
Gu An and the son of the Demon Emperor, Emperor Evil, were both gazing at the Heavendome, and Emperor Evil's brows furrowed.
"What is that...?" Emperor Evil muttered to himself.
Gu An sighed, "It seems like a big trouble is upon us."
It was a rare occasion for the two of them to meet, and they had just exchanged a few greetings when the roar of the Primordial Immortal King interrupted their conversation.
In the past, when the Demon Land invaded the Human Territory, Emperor Evil, as the son of the Demon Emperor, had secretly come to the Taixuan Sect, staying there for hundreds of years. Now, he had become one of the high-ranking members of the Taixuan Sect, helping human cultivators establish connections with the demons.
Initially, Emperor Evil and Gu An had a pleasant chat, but as their status gap widened, they gradually grew apart.
Emperor Evil took a deep breath and said, "Indeed."
He lowered his head and looked at Gu An, a smile on his face. "You don't need to be afraid. The Taixuan Sect is now the safest place in the world."
Gu An nodded and continued their casual conversation.
Perhaps due to the appearance of the Primordial Immortal King, Emperor Evil was unusually patient and began to explain just how powerful the Taixuan Sect had become.
At the same time, beyond the heavens.
In front of the Reincarnation Whirlpool, the Primordial Immortal King stood, no longer roaring, his arms hanging naturally by his sides. Suddenly, he turned his gaze towards the Immortal Dynasty.
The immortal beings were terrified as they were suddenly locked onto by him.
The Primordial Immortal King's face twisted into a sinister smile, and as his eyes focused, countless eyes of various sizes appeared in the void, all of them identical to the Primordial Immortal King's.
Each immortal being felt as if they were being stared at by countless enemies, and before they could even attempt to flee, the eyes in the void burst open. The immortal beings' faces paled, unable to speak or dodge, as their souls uncontrollably flew out of their bodies towards those eyes.
This bizarre scene shocked the powerful beings in the Heavenly Spirit Great World who were observing through their divine minds and consciousness.
The Immortal Dynasty did not send any reinforcements, allowing these immortal beings to have their souls taken.
Soon, all the souls were absorbed by the Primordial Immortal King's eyes, and he closed his eyes, causing the eyes in the void to disappear.
The Primordial Immortal King opened his eyes again, and the bloodshot veins in his eyes vanished. The deathly aura around him dissipated, and he seemed more alive.
He smiled once more and blew a breath towards the immortal beings' physical bodies, instantly turning thousands of them into ashes.
"Welcome the Immortal King's return from the Xuan You!"
A mysterious man flew out from the Reincarnation Whirlpool and shouted loudly.
As he spoke, the other silhouettes repeated his words, and the name of the Immortal King echoed throughout the universe.
The Primordial Immortal King raised his right hand, causing a slight tremor in the Heavenly Spirit Great World. The ocean roiled, and a mysterious black object resembling a mountain suddenly erupted from the seabed, dispersing the clouds and swiftly flying towards the Primordial Immortal King.
Boom!
The Primordial Immortal King's right hand caught the incoming object, which turned out to be a black broadsword. Its handle was ten thousand zhang long, resembling a mountain ridge, with mysterious patterns carved on its surface. The blade was thick and heavy, seemingly unsharpened, and its entire body was pitch-black without any glow.
Looking in the direction the sword came from, a large hole was expanding in the cloud sea, and beneath it, a crack was forming in the blue ocean, gradually widening.
The Primordial Immortal King's gaze fell upon the black broadsword in his hand, and he muttered, "It's been a long time since I held you. I miss the days of fighting alongside you."
He raised the black broadsword and swung it lightly, causing the air to ripple and shake the light layer beyond the heavens. The reincarnation whirlpool behind him also twisted and rippled.
The reincarnation silhouettes watching this became even more excited, constantly shouting the name of the Immortal King.
The commotion beyond the heavens reached its peak, while the universe inside was deathly silent. All living beings seemed afraid of disturbing them, and no one dared to come out, let alone speak.
The Primordial Immortal King raised the black broadsword high, fully releasing his aura!
This was the aura of one standing at the pinnacle of the ninth heaven of the Immortal Dao!
Even the Yang Immortal Emperor had never displayed such an aura!
Far away in the Immortal Dynasty, the Yang Immortal Emperor stood on the Golden Palace, gazing at this scene. The Ancient Immortal Emperor suddenly appeared beside him, his face turning ashen.
"Was this your doing too?" the Ancient Immortal Emperor asked in a deep voice.
The Yang Immortal Emperor remained expressionless and asked, "Would I resurrect another emperor of the Immortal Dynasty to replace me?"
Hearing this, the Ancient Immortal Emperor's eyebrows furrowed, and he asked in surprise, "Who could it be?"
The Yang Immortal Emperor replied, "It seems that the Yuan Xu Ancestor's opening of reincarnation has another purpose. Perhaps this is the Primordial Immortal King's scheme. With the war between the Immortal Dynasty and the Holy Court, the heavenly secrets are in chaos, and it's not impossible for him to want to resurrect."
Hearing this, the Ancient Immortal Emperor's eyes revealed a worried expression.
The Primordial Immortal King's aura was incredibly powerful, so much so that even the Freedom Immortal was startled. He couldn't help but worry. The most crucial thing was that after the Primordial Immortal King's resurrection, the first to suffer would not be the Holy Court but the Immortals of the Immortal Dynasty. This was a very dangerous sign.
"Is the Holy Court plotting something? It shouldn't be..." The Ancient Immortal Emperor muttered to himself.
The Yang Immortal Emperor didn't respond. Instead of worry in his eyes, there was more battle intent.
Since he ascended to the throne of the Immortal Dynasty, courtiers often compared him to past Immortal Emperors. Naturally, the Primordial Immortal King, who founded the Immortal Dynasty, was an existence he couldn't surpass.
He had fantasized more than once: if he and the Primordial Immortal King were in the same era, who would have the last laugh? He was full of confidence in himself. Even facing the undefeated Holy Heaven for many years, he had the same ambition because he was much younger than Holy Heaven.
Even though the Primordial Immortal King's aura was powerful, the Yang Immortal Emperor wasn't afraid. His heart burned with fighting spirit.
On the other side.
In the Holy Court, the Holy Chancellor and Holy Deities, who were discussing countermeasures, were astonished. The Primordial Immortal King had actually destroyed that group of Immortals!
How was this possible?
A Holy Deity looked at the Holy Chancellor and asked, unable to hold back, "Was this your doing?"
The Holy Chancellor looked towards the heavens and shook his head slightly, saying, "It has nothing to do with me. It seems that another variable is about to appear."
Hearing this, the Holy Deities became even more confused. They didn't feel joy but instead felt unease.
Who was behind all this?
...
In front of the reincarnation whirlpool, the Primordial Immortal King felt the power of the black broadsword. His left hand reached towards his head.
"There's still one thing missing."
The Primordial Immortal King muttered to himself. His gaze fell upon the Heavenly Spirit Great World, and his eyes fixed on a spot as his lips curled upwards. Then, he disappeared into thin air from his original position.
At the Great Profound Sect's outer city, Gu An was listening intently. Based on the information from Emperor Evil, the Great Profound Sect had indeed become powerful and had even established a vast network of connections overseas.
All of this couldn't be separated from one person.
T
E
Boom!
A figure descended from the sky and slammed into the street in front of Gu An, causing stones to fly and surrounding cultivators to be blown away. Gu An's robe fluttered noisily in the wind.
Emperor Evil's pupils suddenly dilated, and he quickly flashed behind Gu An to protect him.
But the next second, he regretted it because he saw the true face of the newcomer.
It was none other than the Primordial Immortal King!
The Primordial Immortal King's roaring figure remained in the sky, and the surrounding cultivators subconsciously looked up, then turned their gazes towards the Primordial Immortal King.
Whoosh—
The cultivators retreated like the receding tide, and some even leaped into the air, flying towards the distance.
Emperor Evil stood rooted to the spot, his legs feeling like they were filled with lead, unable to move. He was terrified, but for some reason, he didn't flee. All he could hear was his own heartbeat.
The Primordial Immortal King stared at Gu An without expression. In front of him, Emperor Evil seemed so small, and the disparity in their auras was overwhelming.
"Junior, do you know the origin of the crown you wear?"
Hearing the Primordial Immortal King's question, Gu An turned to look at him and then pointed to his own Immortal King Crown, asking, "Is this crown yours?"
The Primordial Immortal King's lips curved up as he said, "Indeed, it is mine. This treasure was crafted when I entered the ninth heaven of the Immortal Dao. It is called the Immortal King Crown, and it can devour the vital energy of sentient beings and store spiritual power."
The ninth heaven of the Immortal Dao!
An Immortal Dao treasure!
Emperor Evil was shocked upon hearing this, and his face was covered in cold sweat.
Against such an existence, he had no power to resist!
Not just him, but the entire Taixuan Sect might face the danger of annihilation.
He even felt resentful towards Gu An. How could you have found a crown with such an origin?
He had been puzzled before, as Gu An's Immortal King Crown had many indentations, clearly designed for installing jewels, but this fellow hadn't done so because they wouldn't fit.
Gu An looked at the Primordial Immortal King and asked, "So what? Do you want to take it back?"
All around, Taixuan Sect cultivators watched tensely. Although the Primordial Immortal King was terrifying, this was the Taixuan Sect, and many disciples bore the responsibility of protecting their sect.
Hearing Gu An's words, they cursed in their hearts. Has this kid gone mad?
Dare to provoke such a terrifying existence!
The Primordial Immortal King narrowed his eyes and sized up Gu An.
[The Primordial Immortal King has hostile intentions towards you and wants to crush you to dust. Do you want to perform a Life Probe on him?]
Gu An took the opportunity to choose to probe.
[Primordial Immortal King (Transcendent Freedom Immortal Realm, Ninth Layer): 0/0/0]
All zeros!
Not a living being!
Gu An felt disappointed. In his eyes, the Primordial Immortal King was worth less than a Qi Condensation Realm cultivator.
The Primordial Immortal King took a step forward and approached Emperor Evil, causing him to tremble violently, his entire body shaking as he fell into the shadows.
The Primordial Immortal King looked down at Emperor Evil and said coldly, "Mortal, do you dare block my path?"
Figures appeared in the distance, all of them great cultivators of the Taixuan Sect, including the Nine-Finger Divine Lord and the Divine Heart Son. They looked at the Primordial Immortal King, all of them feeling a sense of awe and fear.
What a terrifying aura!
Who exactly was this person?
Emperor Evil seemed like a completely different person from his usual self, appearing so disheveled at this moment. He wanted to speak, but even the strength to beg for mercy eluded him.
And it wasn't just him!
The Taixuan Sect cultivators all around were as silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to make a move. Their greatest courage was in choosing not to flee.
"Kneel!"
The Primordial Immortal King's eyes flashed with determination, and he shouted in a deep voice, like a thunderclap, causing everyone to tremble.
Emperor Evil was scared pale, his legs turning soft. He was about to collapse, but just as his knees were about to touch the ground, a hand grabbed his arm and pulled him up.
It was Gu An!
Gu An held Emperor Evil with one hand while looking at the Primordial Immortal King.
Standing on the roof in the distance, the Nine-Finger Divine Lord was secretly startled. Who exactly was this young man? He remembered Gu An's confrontation with the Sun Moon Dark Emperor, and this piqued his curiosity, but he dared not ask.
Held by Gu An, Emperor Evil felt a strange sense of relief. He turned to look at Gu An, wanting to speak, but upon seeing Gu An's cold and stern face, he couldn't say a word.
He was intimidated by Gu An's expression.
Unconsciously, a sense of reverence arose in his heart.
The Primordial Immortal King stared at Gu An, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. He raised the black greatsword in his hand and held it high above his head, as if about to cleave Gu An in two.
"Be careful!"
A Taixuan Sect disciple shouted loudly. He had once been a disciple of the Third Medicine Valley and had always been grateful to Gu An. Seeing Gu An in danger, he instinctively warned him.
This was the only thing he could do.
Gu An slightly tilted his head and stared at the Primordial Immortal King, saying, "I'll give you one chance to strike with your sword, just one."
Upon hearing this, the Primordial Immortal King's eyes flashed with cold intent, and he brandished the sword, slashing down fiercely.
Emperor Evil, half-kneeling, looked up, his eyes covered by the black greatsword, his face filled with a look of despair.
Boom!
The sword slashed down!
The black greatsword instantly vanished, taking the Primordial Immortal King with it, turning them both into ashes. The terrifying force crushed the surrounding buildings, and the dark clouds in the sky were scattered.
Gu An stood in place, his expression unchanged, but his hair and robe fluttered endlessly, as if engulfed in raging flames!
Thanks to Qian Yuxingchen for the 500 Qidian Coins reward~
I originally wanted to write two more chapters, but after updating the previous chapter, I fell asleep on the couch, almost scared to death when I woke up. I didn't have time for two chapters, but I'll write more in this one to avoid splitting it.
