“Fury of the Earth!”
“Greater Void Step!”
“Abyssal Edge!”
The three bamboo hat men and seven or eight experts of similar power flew toward Wang Chong and the other martial arts titans.
These people had been engaged in fierce combat with the righteous and evil path experts on the ground. Without them to hold the line, the other men in black were thrown back.
“Aaaah!” Screams tore through the air as numerous men in black were felled.
But this didn’t even cause the three bamboo hat men to crease a brow. These ordinary members of their organization were insignificant. It didn’t matter how many of them had to die as long as they could complete their mission.
“Seeking death!”
Seeing these men in black heedlessly rush at him, Wang Chong immediately swung his sword.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The Yellow Scarf Warrior and the other men in black were sent flying by Wang Chong’s sword, slammed into the rock wall. Song Yuanyi and the other martial arts titans also beat back their own adversaries.
But by this time, the Deer Immortal had reached his goal. The two other leaders of the men in black had joined together and were attacking the first-generation successor from the rear.
“Wang Chong!” Song Yuanyi suddenly shouted, and he and all the other martial arts titans paled.
The situation that had been well in their favor had instantly turned grave.
The Deer Immortal’s strategy had instantly dropped them into an extremely disadvantageous position, but there was nothing they could do about it.
“Trying to bully with numbers isn’t that easy!”
Just when it seemed like the Deer Immortal was about to succeed, Wang Chong’s eyes coldly flashed.
Rumble!
In the distance, the strongest fighter on the battlefield, the first-generation successor, suddenly began to move.
Suddenly, the first-generation successor began to attack two sides at once, sending a dazzling bolt of Sword Qi at the Tiger Immortal. Meanwhile, the tens of thousands of golden swords charged at the Goat Immortal and Deer Immortal like a cloud of locusts.
“What?!”
The eyes of the Goat Immortal and Deer Immortal flew open in shock.
The first-generation successor was already deceased, so the Deer Immortal had never imagined that he would be able to react this way.
“Bastard!”
Wang Chong’s face suddenly emerged in the Deer Immortal’s mind, and he immediately scowled.
He didn’t need to turn his head to know that this was Wang Chong’s doing.
This simple act from Wang Chong had rendered all his effort futile.
Regardless of what he thought, countless swords as dazzling as the sun were howling toward him and the Goat Immortal with absurd speed.
Creee!
As the air shrieked, the Deer Immortal only had time to push his ‘Immortals Pursue the Deer’ to its absolute limit, after which he and the Goat Immortal were engulfed by the deluge of swords.
Boomboomboom!
Explosions and furious roars could be heard. Although the two, by using all their strength, had succeeded in stopping the thousands of golden swords, Wang Chong had achieved his goal.
“An excellent chance!”
Wang Chong used the time that the pair were being held down by the first-generation successor’s Origin Immortal Sword Formation to shoot forward. Before the person himself had even arrived, an unstoppable bolt of Sword Qi preceded him.
By the time everyone else had seen this Sword Qi, it had already struck the planner behind this entire incident, the Deer Immortal.
The air parted like waves before the Sword Qi, leaving behind surfaces as smooth as mirrors.
Of the three Immortals, the Goat Immortal was the weakest and the Tiger Immortal the strongest. As for the Deer Immortal, he was right in the middle, but he was also the most difficult to deal with.
If Wang Chong hadn’t reacted so quickly, he might have already succeeded.
“Puny ant, you’ll pay for this!”
The Deer Immortal’s eyes were bursting with rage. He had accounted for every possibility in this operation except Wang Chong.
Although Wang Chong’s Art of God and Demon Obliteration was powerful, he was not at all proficient in it. They had been on par in their previous battle, so why would the Deer Immortal fear him now?
Bang!
Three golden arms emerged from the golden clouds behind the Deer Immortal. Even larger than the Deer Immortal’s body, they punched with thunderous speed at Wang Chong.
Boomboomboom!
The milky-white bolt of Stellar Energy that could slay even gods clashed again and again with the three golden arms. This clash sent ripples through the fabric of space that made the entire area turn blurry and indistinct.
“Kid, hand over your life!”
The Deer Immortal roared, but just when he was about to use all his moves to kill Wang Chong, hiss! A violet lightning bolt flashed through the air and hurtled into the Deer Immortal’s body.
“Not good!”
The Deer Immortal paled as his body instantly began to feel numb. His smooth movements paused for a tiny moment as his Stellar Energy failed to catch up, exposing a momentary weakness.
Bang!
A moment later, the world seemed to become as bright as day. The God and Demon Obliteration Sword Qi unleashed by Wang Chong tore through the heavens as it once more came down at lightning-fast speed.
Unlike before, this dazzling white Sword Qi was tinged with a violet shade. A moment later, this combined attack slammed into the Deer Immortal’s body.
Boom!
The Deer Immortal’s body slammed into the rock wall like a cannonball.
“This is…?”
Wang Chong’s eyes widened, sensing something strange. The Deer Immortal had been defeated much faster than he had anticipated.
And Wang Chong had also noticed something different about his Origin Immortal Sword.
Wang Chong had taken the Origin Immortal Sword to only be able to hold energy and convert energy like the Origin Immortal Art, but at this moment, Wang Chong sensed another power deep within the sword.
And this power was not something as simple as ordinary high-level energy!
Buzz!
Wang Chong immediately sent a sliver of his Psychic Energy into the Origin Immortal Sword.
Deep within it, Wang Chong saw an ancient energy dome. Black characters swam within it, belonging to a script even older than Bird Seal Script.
Wang Chong had never seen such words before.
“Stone of Destiny, analyze these words!”
Wang Chong called on the Stone of Destiny without hesitation!
“User has consumed 20000 points of Destiny Energy! Analysis begins!
“Analysis in progress… This is a powerful ancient seal.”
Finally, the Stone of Destiny announced in its cold and emotionless voice, “The words on the seal are… ‘The Power of Lightning’! Notice: analysis still in progress…”
“Power of Lightning?!”
Wang Chong was taken aback by these words.
But before Wang Chong could ponder the matter any further, a giant golden fist punched at Wang Chong.
This arm was thicker and stronger than the ones before!
“!!!”
Upon seeing this arm approaching, Wang Chong sneered and immediately used the second technique of the Art of God and Demon Obliteration…
God Demon Execution!
Three bolts of heaven-shaking Sword Qi emerged from behind Wang Chong. The moment these three bolts of Sword Qi appeared, the world began to resound with shrieking and wailing, and the space beneath Wang Chong’s feet began to distort, manifesting a vision of the corpses of countl
ess gods and demons.
At this moment, Wang Chong seemed to be the most frightening death god in the world, the most terrifying existence.
“What?”
The Deer Immortal paled in alarm. He had never seen Wang Chong use this move before, but for some reason, he felt that it was far more frightening than any previous attack.
The three bolts of Sword Qi merged together, and before the Deer Immortal’s golden arm could land, it was obliterated by the power of the attack. The Sword Qi continued unabated, piercing straight through the Deer Immortal and nailing his body to the distant rock wall.
Fwoosh!
The Deer Immortal’s body trembled as gold-tinged crimson blood erupted from his mouth. His energy rapidly faded and his aura dwindled.
The constant fighting and this strike had finally dealt the Deer Immortal a heavy blow.
“Charge!”
With Wang Chong singlehandedly suppressing the Deer Immortal, Xie Guangting, Song Yuanyi, the Black Yin Ancestor, and the others joined together to attack the Goat Immortal.
Many ants could bite an elephant to death, and the Goat Immortal had already exhausted a great deal of Subtle realm energy in his previous battles. He was now surrounded and hard-pressed to deal with his foes, and his defeat seemed inevitable.
“You damn ants! You dare to defy the gods? I’ll tear you all to pieces!”
The Goat Immortal raged as attack after attack came down around him.
This mission had never been his. He had only come because the Deer Immortal had summoned him. Within the organization, the Goat Immortal was accustomed to standing aloof while those below revered him. Never had mere mortals forced him to this stage.
Boom! A figure flew past him and smashed into the rock wall behind him.
“Deer Immortal!”
The Goat Immortal saw that Wang Chong had sent the Deer Immortal flying, and his body trembled in fear.
“This scoundrel…”
The Goat Immortal shot a glance at Wang Chong, who only seemed to be getting stronger and stronger as time went on, and his face paled.

The situation became extremely grim for the men in black. The Deer Immortal and Goat Immortal were being suppressed by Wang Chong and Song Yuanyi’s group, causing the morale of the men in black down below to plunge. “Aaaah!” The righteous and evil path experts joined together and began to cut through swaths of the men in black.
Rivers of blood flowed across the ground. Not even the Fires of Ju Bi and Mara could stop the ascendant martial artists now.
“Kill them!”
“Slaughter these bastards!”
“Don’t be afraid! They’re at the end of their rope! With Young Master Wang here, they’re no match for us!”
Wang Chong had never imagined that the experts of both the righteous path and evil path would regard him as the heart of this battle, but this was exactly what had happened. Now that he had the upper hand in the battle against the three masked men, the martial artists of both paths were inspired and fought with renewed vigor.
Meanwhile, the bamboo hat men nastily scowled. They had mobilized so many people for this operation, but they had suffered grievous losses to these mortal martial artists. This would make them laughing stocks once they went back.
“Bastard!”
Elsewhere, at the most important place in the battlefield, the Tiger Immortal had long ago begun to tremble in rage from all that he was seeing.
The Deer Immortal was heavily injured, the Goat Immortal was in dire straits, and his men on the ground were in a full rout, and there was still the first-generation successor sending wave after wave of attacks howling at him. All of this had deeply provoked the Tiger Immortal, causing his eyes to turn completely red.
Just as the Tiger Immortal was beginning to think of a plan, clangclangclang! Thousands of swords cried out, exploding with golden light as the first-generation successor attacked once more. The Tiger Immortal converted all his Stellar Energy into a sturdy fortress, but he was still forced back by the attack.
The first-generation successor’s attacks were sweeping and powerful, and they were also concentrated and endless. In this battle, he had been entirely on the offensive, not even caring if he exposed any large weakness.
In truth, there was no need for him to worry about such things. He had been dead for one thousand years already. The Tiger Immortal, on the other hand, had far more to worry about.
Not only that, although the first-generation successor’s attacks were not badly wounding the Tiger Immortal, the constant barrage was wearing away at his Subtle realm energy. If he allowed this to continue, defeat was only a matter of time.
Bang!
The swords cried out as the first-generation successor attacked again, once more sending the Tiger Immortal hurtling into a rock wall.
Kaclack!
After being knocked back again, the Tiger Immortal clenched his steely fingers, their joints cracking. An extremely cold light appeared in his eyes.
“You damn humans! Do you really think that you can fight me with a dead man?!” A cold and thunderous voice resounded in everyone’s ears.
Boom! An immense energy suddenly exploded out of the Tiger Immortal’s body.
The Tiger Immortal had been pushed back again and again by the first-generation successor’s frenzied attacks, and his energy reserves had been greatly exhausted, but at this moment, his body was somehow exuding an energy even greater than before.
This sudden change drew everyone’s attention.
Buzz!
Wang Chong raised an eyebrow and instinctively turned to look.
The Tiger Immortal who had constantly been on the back foot against the first-generation successor erupted with dazzling golden light. This barrier of golden light was so tough that it managed to block the successor’s Sword Qi.
The thousands of swords battered against the barrier, unleashing a shower of sparks, but none of them were able to break through.
Even the grandiose Sword Qi of the first-generation successor was only able to cause the light to dim for a few moments before it once more regained its radiance.
As Wang Chong looked over, he immediately spotted ripples emerging from the Tiger Immortal’s forehead, and in the center of the ripples was clearly a compact golden axe.
This small axe was golden all over except its edge, which was a dangerous red.
“Not good!”
Wang Chong instantly paled.
He had never seen this axe before, but he was no stranger to those ripples of energy.
“Ritual tool!”
The small axe emerging from the Tiger Immortal’s forehead gave him the same feeling as Bagushidu’s Earthblood Cauldrons.
Wang Chong’s heart sank as an ill foreboding took hold.
“Master, Village Chief, Lone Silence Ancestor, Alliance Lord Song, ignore everyone else and attack the Tiger Immortal!” Wang Chong immediately roared, and then he pushed back the Goat Immortal and rushed at the Tiger Immortal.
The Demonic Emperor Old Man, the Wushang Village Chief, and Song Yuanyi turned stern at Wang Chong’s words and cast aside their opponents to rush at the Tiger Immortal.
Wang Chong’s reaction couldn’t be called slow, but it was still not enough in front of a terrifying expert like the Tiger Immortal.
“No one has ever forced me into this! You ants will all have to pay!” the Tiger Immortal furiously bellowed.
The golden axe on his forehead instantly turned scalding hot.
The Seven-Inch Immortal Axe!
This was an extremely powerful ritual tool that the Tiger Immortal had been rewarded with not too long ago.
It had taken a string of contributions, a herculean effort, for him to finally receive this reward.
But while this ritual tool was incredibly
powerful, he had only received it a short while ago, so he had not yet refined it.
This ritual tool could not be carelessly used before refinement, as it would result in an extremely dangerous backlash. This was why the Tiger Immortal had initially had no intention of using it.
But now, he was forced to.
Boom!
As the first-generation successor sent another attack at him, the Tiger Immortal’s eyes coldly flashed. The Seven-Inch Immortal Axe in his hand suddenly swelled in size to around two feet long, and he swung it forward.
The entire world seemed to shake as a lightning bolt shot through the air. All space within ten feet of the Tiger Immortal distorted and even began to shatter like a mirror, black cracks creeping across it.
As the space cracked, the Tiger Immortal swung.
The first-generation successor’s Origin Immortal Sword Formation was instantly shattered, thousands of swords obliterated. Deprived of all light, they plummeted into the abyss.
“!!!”
Wang Chong, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, and Song Yuanyi all grimaced.
“Let me see just how capable all of you are!”
The Tiger Immortal narrowed his eyes, glanced at the first-generation successor, and swung again.
Crackcrack! Like shattering ice, another several thousand swords were pulverized by the axe.
Even the milky-white bolt of Sword Qi fired by the first-generation successor exploded.
In just two axe swings, the Tiger Immortal had displayed a strength that completely reversed the battle and suppressed the successor.
“Hmph, let me see how many more swings you can take!”
At this moment, the Tiger Immortal opened his mouth, bit down on his tongue, and spat blood onto the Seven-Inch Immortal Axe. All the blood was absorbed into the axe.
Nourished by the Tiger Immortal’s essence blood, the Seven-Inch Immortal Axe swelled in power.
Not only that, the faint red edge of the axe instantly turned a bizarre crimson.
Boom!
The Tiger Immortal formed a spell with his hands and then extended a finger. The Seven-Inch Immortal Axe blazed with light and suddenly turned into a giant golden blade more than a hundred feet long that hurtled at the first-generation successor and all the swords in the air.
