Chapter 924: Invincible Below the Immortal King Realm (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
All the Immortals were staring forward. When the aftershock of the energy dissipated, General Black Horn slowly raised his two huge axes and sneered. So what if he was strong? He would still die under his axes. However, when he saw that there were no corpses or remains in the ax pit, his body stiffened. Then, he turned around with difficulty and saw Shen Ping appear from the side.
“You, you..”
“You’re quite strong, General, but you’re still a peerless immortal!”
The Primordial Chaos Spear emitted a dazzling spear beam. The entire Yanhuo Maple Forest was covered in golden light. The Great Dao fluctuations in the world gathered and pierced through General Black Horn at an extremely fast speed.
The golden light gradually dissipated. The Great Dao fluctuations of the Metal disappeared as well. General Black Horn’s figure shrank rapidly. A hole appeared between his eyebrows, and two huge axes fell to the ground. He looked up. “What, what kind of method is this?”
“Great Dao Means.”
“Hahahaha, good, very good. I didn’t expect to see the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth before I died. My death is not in vain. However, Shen, you will definitely die today!” With that, he fell heavily to the ground.
The immortals watching from afar were horrified. They hadn’t expected that not only had General Black Horn lost, but he had also sacrificed his life. This was simply unbelievable. Other than the top five experts, it was very difficult for peerless immortals of the same level to kill each other, let alone an almost invincible expert like General Black Horn.
“This, this Fellow Daoist Shen’s strength is too strong!”
“Yeah, what was that last blow?”
“It’s the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the Great Dao of Metal. I didn’t expect him to comprehend it at the peerless immortal level!”
“Another invincible existence below the Immortal King Realm has been born!”
It was naturally easier to sense the fluctuations of the Great Dao in the world after breaking through to the immortal king realm. Although it was still blurry, he could comprehend it. However, there were still some geniuses who could comprehend the Great Dao at the peak of the peerless immortal realm.
The reason why the top five of the Foreign Race’s Bounty List had never been replaced and no foreigners had ever been able to deal with them was mainly because the five of them were peak peerless immortals who had comprehended a trace of the great Dao of heaven and earth.
The Black Sky Tavern, the Assassin Hall, and other large factions across the Immortal Realm, as well as the foreign races, all increased the importance of Shen Ping. In particular, the foreign races increased Shen Ping’s bounty, causing him to be sixth on the bounty list!
In the ruins of the Yanhuo Maple Forest, Shen Ping looked at General Black Horn’s corpse and could not help but shake his head gently. He did not hold any grudges against this general and knew that he had only come for the reputation of the Black Horn Army. However, immortals were like this. Sometimes, they did not fight purely for hatred and benefits.
It was exactly like that sentence—In the pugilistic world, one had no choice. He could not help but think of himself. As Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s disciple, he would probably have many things he could not control in the future. He would also take on many responsibilities.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance. He saw a figure walking over slowly. His footsteps were very slow, but he could cross a long distance with a single step, as if he had teleported.
“It’s the Black and White Swordbane!”
“He, he actually came to the Yanhuo Maple Forest!”
“Don’t tell me he’s here for Fellow Daoist Shen?”
“It was the right thing to come here today!”
“Fellow Daoist Shen is already an invincible existence below the Immortal King Realm. Now, another one has appeared. Could this be General Black Horn’s trump card?!”
The Immortals in the distance were bewildered.
The Black and White Swordbane had already arrived opposite Shen Ping. He was hugging a black sword and carrying a white sword on his back. He looked like a scholar, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, dressed in white and had a faint smile on his face. If one did not know his exact identity, they would think that he was a martial artist who was good at using swords. He did not look like an immortal at all.
“You are?” Shen Ping asked.
The scholar smiled and said, “My name is Bu Chengshu. People call me the Black and White Swordbane. I owe General Black Horn a favor, so I came.”
Shen Ping raised his eyebrows. The Black and White Swordbane was ranked third on the foreign race’s bounty list. There was no doubt about its strength. No wonder General Black Horn said that he would not be able to walk out of the Yanhuo Maple Forest alive today. It turned out that his backup plan was here.
“You want me dead?” he said coolly.
The scholar shook his head. “I have no grievances with you, so why would I want your life for no reason? It’s just that I’ve never left anyone alive when I attacked, so as long as you can survive, it’s not my violation of the agreement.”
Shen Ping smiled. “Alright, but before I make a move, I have to remind you to be prepared to die!”
The black and white scholar couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re very confident. That’s true. You do have the qualifications to be confident since you killed General Black Horn. Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since I fought an opponent like you. Today, I can fight to my heart’s content.”
The black and white immortal swords were unsheathed. They seemed to be one yin and one yang circling in the sky. Every time they rotated, they emitted an incomparably powerful immortal aura. At the same time, endless sword qi spread out, instantly turning the entire Yanhuo Maple Forest into a world of immortal swords.
Shen Ping felt the pressure and was very satisfied. “Not bad, not bad. Finally, someone with enough weight!”
Although the two immortal swords did not activate the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the endless sword aura on them was clearly the Great Dao of Water. For him to be ranked third on the Bounty List, it was obvious that he had comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he had seen an immortal who had comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth below the Immortal King Realm. In the Strange Beast Gate, the geniuses of the Devil Clan, the Flame Race, the Spirit Race, and the others had only comprehended the surface of the strange beast’s scales. They could not be considered to have entered the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
The black and white scholar let out a low shout and pointed with both hands. Two immortal swords slashed towards Shen Ping from the left and right with surging auras like a tsunami.
Swoosh! The sword light pierced through a large area of the maple forest ruins, leaving two sword marks that were several kilometers long on the ground. The place where Shen Ping was just now was like two huge cracks, and there was still an inexorable sword intent at the edge of the cracks.
It didn’t succeed. The two immortal swords continued to chase after Shen Ping, as if they could lock onto his aura. They flickered back and forth in the entire Maple Forest ruins, and every time they flickered, sword lights would slash out.
Shen Ping’s movement technique was very powerful and he had the divine power of the strange beast’s teleportation, but if he did not use the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, he would not be able to resist the attack of this immortal sword and could only escape in a sorry state.
If he used the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, his strange beast immortal essence energy could not fuse with his body without the actual pressure. Therefore, he could only run continuously, thinking whether he should use the Primordial Chaos Spear to counterattack.
The black and white scholar frowned. “Fellow Daoist Shen, what do you mean by blindly retreating? Since you killed General Black Horn, you must have comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. If you don’t use it, are you looking down on me?”
His aura was surging. The two immortal swords suddenly sped up, leaving sword marks in the ruins of the Maple Forest. Even the air was filled with sword energy. Moreover, these sword energies vaguely formed a formation, as if they were accumulating for a powerful sword immortal technique.
Shen Ping could also tell this. He was still the same as before, but every time he fought the immortal sword, his strange beast immortal essence energy would speed up the fusion.
Boom!
Five minutes later, in the ruins of Maple Forest, streams of sword qi suddenly converged into a translucent immortal sword. Two true immortal swords, one black and one white, returned to the scholar’s hands. He shook his head. “Daoist Shen, do you have any last words? You can tell me now. I used the sword as a guide and the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth as a net to set up an inescapable net. No peerless immortal has ever escaped from this sword formation!”
He looked at the densely packed invisible sword beams.
Shen Ping could clearly feel the pressure around him. He silently urged the strange beast immortal essence energy in his body to fuse with his immortal body. As long as he completely fused with it, he could use all kinds of rare treasures to temper his body and nurture his Dao Embryo. This step had stumped many peerless immortals. Even if they completely fused with it, it would take many years for them to accumulate the rare treasures needed. They might not even be able to successfully collect them.
After nurturing it, they had to let their true soul force transform into an Immortal King. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to successfully nurture a Dao Embryo.
