  While others might not have realized what this lifelike phoenix indicated, Song Yuanyi, the Black Yin Ancestor, and the other martial arts titans instantly knew what it was.

  “The Nirvana Sword Dao!”

  It was said that several hundred years ago, there existed a supremely powerful technique in the martial arts world that only women could cultivate.

  The power and ferocity of this technique were second only to the Art of God and Demon Obliteration.

  However, this technique was present in the martial arts world for only a brief moment, so short that many people didn’t even get a chance to see it. And as only women could learn it and it had not been spread very openly throughout the martial arts world, the vast majority of martial artists had never even heard of it before.

  But as titans of the martial arts world, Song Yuanyi and the Black Yin Ancestor naturally knew of it.

  However, they had just believed that it was fake, a rumor that had become more exaggerated over time.

  Neither of them had imagined that this legendary sword art meant only for women would appear here in the hands of the Origin Immortal Guardians.

  The Black Yin Ancestor’s eyes flashed as he realized what was going on. “So it seems like those mysterious experts who appeared back then and defeated many martial arts titans were these Origin Immortal Guardians. No wonder the Nirvana Sword Dao only appeared for a moment and then vanished again.”

  The golden phoenix merged with the Origin Immortal Village Chief’s Sword Qi and turned into an even more dazzling and grandiose beam of energy. It cut through the ceiling of the cave as it hurtled toward the bamboo hat leader.

  The beam of Sword Qi was like a comet or the sun rising from the east, its light drowning out all other light in the cave. And it also moved with incredible speed.

  Boom!

  A moment later, that grandiose beam of Sword Qi struck the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

  Roooar!

  The Yellow Scarf Warrior brought his arms together to block while energy erupted from his body.

  In the face of this nigh unstoppable beam of Sword Qi, even the mighty Yellow Scarf Warrior had to take a few steps back, his face paling.

  “Kill!”

  Several more shouts rang out.

  Two Origin Immortal Elders behind the chief began to form spells. The wall behind them cracked open, revealing the bronze mechanisms beneath.

  Two bronze spheres the size of millstones dropped from the mechanism, and before they hit the ground, they exploded into countless bronze blades.

  Thwishthwishthwish!

  With a light thrust of a finger from the two elders, these countless bronze blades flew toward the men in black in a great storm.

  This sight was similar to the metallic storm encountered in the giant pit, though on a much smaller scale.

  With their chief and elders leading the way, the other Origin Immortal Villagers plunged into the fray.

  They were all extremely powerful, their cultivation level at the Imperial Martial realm or above. These people entering the battle and the effects of the underground formations soon pushed the men in black into dire straits.

  Fwoosh!

  A bronze blade swept past the neck of a black-clothed man. Before this man could even react, a thin red line appeared, and then his head flew away.

  In death, his eyes were still round in disbelief.

  Roooar!

  At almost the same time, the cave walls trembled as the Dragonbeast that the Yellow Scarf Warrior had knocked away staggered to its feet.

  The Dragonbeast opened its maw and spat out a gout of flame, instantly burning a man in black to ash.

  Meanwhile, these Dragonbeasts began to transform.

  Their bodies began to click and crack as they visibly grew larger, blacker and stronger.

  More and more black dragon scales began to grow out of their bodies.

  Swish!

  And soon after, searing streams of black smoke began to gush out from between the scales.

  In the blink of an eye, the Dragonbeasts had completed their transformation. Their auras had risen to a new level, and they were even more brutal and powerful.

  Shrouded in black smoke and fierce flames, the Dragonbeasts thundered toward the men in black.

  Bang! A Dragonbeast swung a foot, and two half–Lu Wus in the middle of battle only had time to pale in fear before they were sent hurtling into a wall.

  The Dragonbeasts were so strong that some of the men in black had their bodies separated with just a single swipe.

  “Ah!”

  Screams ripped through the air as the vast cloud of Stellar-Piercing Beetles also began to exhibit their might.

  Even though the resistance of these beetles to Stellar Energy was not that useful against these men in black and their Fire of Mara, this was far from their only ability. The mouths of these beetles were sharper than most swords and could easily bite through them, and they could do the same to human flesh.

  These beetles were all strengthened mutants, and though the men in black managed to kill many of them, many more would still find the holes in their defenses and burrow through their bodies.

  The men in black scratched and tore at their bodies and then fell to the ground.

  Meanwhile, the Darkshadow Spider hidden in the darkness was continuing to attack.

  Swishswishswish! Countless white threads flew through the cave, once more turning it into a deadly trap. Various martial artists and men in black couldn’t dodge in time and were sliced into pieces by the threads.

  In just a few moments, the Origin Immortal Villagers had obtained the firm upper hand.

  “Hmph!”

  But just when the Origin Immortal Village Chief was about to battle with the bamboo hat leader, an icy sneer resounded in everyone’s ears.

  “You’re finally here!”

  An immense and soul-chilling energy exploded into everyone’s perception. Upon sensing this vast energy, the Origin Immortal Village Chief and the villagers all paled.

  The three bamboo hat men and their subordinates were all invigorated.

  Boom!

  Before they could react, the world swayed, and a massive golden arm burst through a cave wall and smashed into the Origin Immortal Villagers.

  “Aaaah!”

  Amidst screams and explosions of energy, the villagers were sent flying like ragdolls.

  The beetles in the air immediately died upon contact with the golden energy, swaths of them dropping to the ground.

  The Subtle realm!

  Wang Chong was intimately familiar with this golden energy.

  This was the energy of the apex of the martial realm, that which Great Generals could only dream of.

  Upon reaching this level, one’s energy would undergo a complete transformation.

  It’s that man wearing the three-eyed deer mask!

  Wang Chong’s heart chilled as he sensed an unprecedented danger.

  In the end, the inevitable had occurred. Wang Chong had been worried about that man with the three-eyed deer mask all this time, wondering where he was. Though the three bamboo hat men were formidable, the masked man was Wang Chong’s true fear.

  He needed to leave as soon as possible or else lose his chance forever!

  Not much time had passed since the battle had begun. Wang Chong had cleverly drawn away the beetles to the Five Ancestor Alliance, the Darkshadow Spider was afraid of him, and the Dragonbeasts were completely focused on the men in black.

  Thus, by continuing to remain as a ‘spectator’, Wang Chong could be considered to be the safest person on the field.

  But Wang Chong was well aware that this situation wouldn’t last for long. Once the men in black defeated the Origin Immortal Villagers, they would quickly make him their target.

  “R
un!”

  The sharp cry of a woman cut through the air. A hint of panic had appeared in the eyes of the Origin Immortal Village Chief. It was obvious that she had not predicted that the man with the three-eyed deer mask would appear at this time.

  Rumble!

  Sword Qi howled and a phoenix cried, its calls tinged with worry and unease. The Origin Immortal VIllage Chief’s Nirvana Sword Dao blazed with light and its power swelled as she attacked the bamboo hat leader with unprecedented ferocity.

  “Hahaha, you want to leave at a time like this? Do you have the time?”

  At this moment, the Yellow Scarf Warrior finally revealed a strange smile.

  Before the battle had started, not even the bamboo hat leader would have been able to detain the Origin Immortal Village Chief. The understanding of the cave these villagers had and their control of its various traps would allow them to easily escape.

  But now, he could not possibly allow her to leave.

  “Raise the Mountains, Exceed the Seas!”

  The massive Yellow Scarf Warrior gathered the Stellar Energy around him and set it hurtling at the Origin Immortal Village Chief, even allowing himself to be injured by the Nirvana Sword Dao in order to hold her down.

  The Origin Immortal Village Chief scowled.

  At this moment, a dreadful development took place.

  There was a flash of light in the cave behind the Origin Immortal Villagers, and then a black-robed man drifted out like a willow catkin, the three-eyed deer mask on his face striking and cold to the extreme.

  Buzz!

  The appearance of this man caused Song Yuanyi, Xie Guangting, the Black Yin Ancestor, Bone Devil Ancestor, and the other martial arts titans to widen their eyes in shock, their minds sensing an imminent danger.

  This man with the three-eyed deer mask exuded an immense pressure, and all of them could sense an intense and blatant killing intent. Despite what the man had said, this killing intent was targeted at everyone in the cave, not just the Origin Immortal Village Chief.

  The masked man’s eyes were cold as he ordered, “Kill them! Leave not one alive!”

  A moment later, he locked onto the white-robed Origin Immortal Village Chief.

  Boom!

  Everyone felt like a path leading to a higher and more mysterious dimension had opened.

  An immense energy as hot as the sun erupted, surging into the masked man’s body.

  “Ah!”

  With a pained cry, the Origin Immortal Village Chief’s milky-white Nirvana Sword Qi was shattered by a giant golden hand.

  The Origin Immortal Village Chief was sent staggering backward seven or eight steps, and the bamboo hat men used this chance to fall back.

  All of the members of this organization were unruly people, and they looked down on working with others, a trait that only intensified the higher one’s status was. The man with the three-eyed deer mask had the highest status, the greatest strength, and also the proudest personality.

  Once he took action, if anyone else dared to help him, they would essentially be humiliating him.

  “Leave that chief to Milord while we kill the others. No one is allowed to leave!”

  The bamboo hat leader’s eyes were bright as he turned to the Origin Immortal Villagers and the martial artists of the righteous and evil paths.

  Clingclang! As more and more weapons clashed, screams began to ring out. The Origin Immortal Villagers had soon suffered grievous losses.

  The half–Lu Wus and the Black Flame Asuras began to turn their attacks on the martial artists of the righteous and evil paths.

  “What are you doing?!”

  “Bastard! Watch out for those men in black!”

  People began to cry out in alarm.

  The Righteous Alliance had already fought with the men in black once, so they had mentally prepared themselves and were not too panicked. But the Five Ancestor Alliance had not been prepared at all.

  “This is a problem! The fighting in the cave will engulf us eventually. Behind us is one of the six generations of walking corpse. These walking corpses all have their own area of activity, and there’s a high chance that the fighting in the cave has alarmed him. Our situation will only get worse from here!” the Lone Silence Ancestor worriedly said. Just like Wang Chong, he was also in the attack range of that Origin Immortal Art successor.

  The successors of the Origin Immortal Art were simply too powerful. Now that he was in the attack range of one, not even the Lone Silence Ancestor with his formidable cultivation level could easily escape.

  The men in black had already begun to massacre everyone in the cave, and there was still a chance that the Stellar-Piercing Beetles could attack.

  Wang Chong said nothing as his mind turned.

  He understood what the Lone Silence Ancestor was feeling, and he felt even more anxious than he did. After all, these men in black were also after him.

  “Don’t worry! I have a solution. In a little while, when I see the chance, we’ll immediately escape. There will only be one chance! Once that man with golden deer mask is free, none of us will be able to escape.” Wang Chong spoke into the Lone Silence Ancestor’s ear, his words a great surprise to him.

  “Young Master Wang, what do you mean?”

  The Lone Silence Ancestor was dumbstruck. Their situation was extremely bizarre. While everyone else was fighting, the two of them had remained motionless.

  This was fine while there was no fighting, but it was very strange now that everyone was fighting for their lives.

  Wang Chong scanned the battlefield, and he quickly fixed his eyes on one of the bamboo hat men, who was slaughtering the experts of the Five Ancestor Alliance.

  “He’s the one!”

  His eyes gleamed with a vicious light, and soon, a vast stream of Psychic Energy slammed into the mind of the bamboo hat man. Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy was so powerful that it already had physical form. No expert beneath the Subtle realm could contend against it.

  Not even the bamboo hat man could endure this sort of attack.

  The third bamboo hat man was using Greater Void Step to constantly move through the cave while ceaselessly attacking. Across from him, several Five Ancestor Alliance elders were just barely managing to hold on.

  “Damn it! He’s too fast! If this continues, we’ll all be killed!”

  As the Five Ancestor Alliance elders were frantic with worry…

  Boom!

  Immense Psychic Energy flew through the air like a sword, stabbing at the air. A moment later, there was a groan as a person emerged from the void.

  This was the bamboo hat man using Greater Void Step.

  Wang Chong’s accurate strike had completely exposed the third bamboo hat man, leaving him in a rather dire situation.

  The bamboo hat man fiercely turned and glared at Wang Chong, who was standing in front of the passage.

  “Heh, the mighty God organization is really nothing at all!”

  At Wang Chong’s words, the third bamboo hat man scowled.

  Their organization had always been inconspicuous and never left behind any clues. Anyone who knew anything about them would be thoroughly eliminated.

  It was for this reason that martial arts titans like Song Yuanyi and Black Yin Ancestor knew nothing about them, but Wang Chong had blatantly announced the name of their organization.

  Although the God organization was not their actual name, it was one of their aliases.

  “A Subtle realm expert has to work together with others to conspire against one woman! How shameless!”

  As Wang Chong spoke, he glanced at the silver-robed, golden-masked Origin Immortal Village Chief.

  Although this person wore a wide-sleeved robe that obscured the shape of her body, her cold and aloof demeanor and her voice revealed her gender.
>
  “Foul brat, you’ve got a sharp tongue! But that won’t get you much. Once this one kills the rest, I’ll come and deal with you!”

  The third bamboo hat man’s eyes gleamed with cold light, and his body blinked away as he dodged the attack of a Five Ancestor Alliance elder.

  Rumble! Stellar Energy exploded, causing his cape to snap. A moment later, he had vanished like a ghost.

  Clangclangclang! The third bamboo hat man moved with incredible speed, and after just a few seconds, the three Five Ancestor Alliance elders had been pushed back, blood seeping out from their chests, arms, and thighs.

  Even with the three of them working together, they could not do much to the man.

  The Greater Void Step was much faster than Wang Chong’s Void Movement Technique. If not for the unbelievable level of his Psychic Energy, he would have never been able to catch the third bamboo hat man.

  “Hmph, it’s not that simple!”

  Wang Chong had managed with great difficulty to draw the attention of this bamboo hat man. He certainly wouldn’t permit his foe to deal with the Five Ancestor Alliance elders and then come to deal with him.

  Speed was paramount in war. Once the man with the three-eyed deer mask was freed up, it would be too late for any plans.

  Since you’re not willing to strike, I’ll force you to! Wang Chong decided.

  In this dangerous cave, everyone was acting like they were treading on thin ice. Wang Chong was probably the only one who was wishing to be targeted first and worried that his foe was not attacking him quickly enough.

  As the third bamboo hat man was completely focused on the three Five Ancestor Alliance elders, pushing his Greater Void Step to the absolute limit while unleashing lethal blow after lethal blow with his saber, a voice resounded in the ears of the elders.

  “Kan position, eight feet, Catch the Dragon and Subdue the Tiger!

  “Li position, six feet, Return the Dragon and Turn the Phoenix!

  “Kan position, nine feet, Climb the Mountains to Seize the Sparrow!

  “Zhen position, four feet, Phoenix Descends with Grace!”

  “It’s him!”

  The three Five Ancestor Alliance elders looked at each other in shock. They immediately recognized this voice as belonging to the Demonic Emperor’s disciple.
