138: I'm coming clean, I'm actually the Celestial Emperor.

Qingming Mountain Range, Myriad Dao Divine Mountain.

Chu Xuanjin was still lying on his rocking chair; the courtyard was quiet, and the years were peaceful.

The changing winds and clouds of the outside world, and the bloodbath in the imperial capital, seemed to be separated from this paradise by a dimension.

He could clearly "see" that on that chessboard named "Zixiao Dao Field," countless Karma lines representing greed and slaughter were crazily entangled together.

And his most dazzling chess pieces had already entered the game.

"Tsk, now this is interesting."

He curled the corners of his mouth into a curve of watching a show, preparing to grab a handful of melon seeds.

[Ding! Detected that the Host's Sect "Myriad Dao Divine Sect" has shaken the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty with its name, and Prestige points have skyrocketed!]

[Hidden achievement triggered: Famous in the Immortal Realm!]

[Rewards being distributed...]

[Congratulations to the Host for raising cultivation to: Late Stage Immortal Lord!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the Divine Ability: "Heavenly Illusion Breath-Concealing Mantra"!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining massive insights into Divine Ability cultivation...]

In his mind, the System's cold notification sound rang out in a series.

A force far more vast and majestic than before, like the Nine Heavens Milky Way pouring backward, instantly filled his limbs, bones, and meridians.

Every cell was cheering, every cell was transforming.

His understanding of the Dao was also elevated to a brand-new level under the scouring of that massive torrent of insights.

"Late Stage Immortal Lord?"

Chu Xuanjin smacked his lips, feeling a bit bored.

Upgrading was as simple as drinking water.

Life was truly as lonely as snow.

His attention was quickly drawn to the newly obtained Divine Ability.

"Heavenly Illusion Breath-Concealing Mantra".

With a thought, the spell was mastered.

Hum.

An invisible, profound fluctuation quietly spread out with him as the center.

His aura, which was originally unfathomable but still remained at the Immortal Lord level, began to soar crazily at an unbelievable speed!

Perfection Immortal Lord!

Early Stage Immortal King!

Middle Stage Immortal King!

Perfection Immortal King!

Immortal Venerable!

Immortal Emperor!

Finally, his aura steadily stopped at the threshold of Early Stage Immortal Emperor, emitting a supreme pressure that made the Myriad Dao submit and time freeze.

Of course, this pressure was perfectly controlled within his body, without leaking a single bit.

"Hehe."

Chu Xuanjin felt this "fake" power and nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad. In the future, I won't have to do anything myself when I go out."

"Standing there, who would dare to speak loudly to me?"

"This is simply a divine skill tailored for a Late Stage lazy cancer patient like me."

He was in a playful mood and adjusted his aura to the first level of the Qi Refinement Stage.

In an instant, he went from a supreme Immortal Emperor suppressing eternity to a little newbie in the cultivation world who couldn't even fly.

"Interesting, interesting."

After playing for a while, he adjusted his aura back to the normal Late Stage Immortal Lord with satisfaction.

This Divine Ability would be hung in the background from now on, running automatically twenty-four hours a day.

If he was in a good mood, he would adjust it to Immortal Emperor to go fishing.

If he was in a bad mood, he would adjust it to the Qi Refinement Stage, waiting for others to provoke him, and then slap them to death.

Life had a bit more fun.

After doing all this, his gaze turned to the Lower Realm again.

Looking at Wang Duojin and the others, who were still busy in the Azure Cloud Continent for the development of the Sect.

Chu Xuanjin frowned.

"This won't do."

"Ye Chenfeng and the others are already fighting to the death in the Immortal Realm."

"You bunch of Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters are still playing with mud in the Lower Realm; does this look right?"

"If word gets out, where will I, as Revered Master, put my face?"

The more he thought about it, the more he felt this was a serious matter.

He must, immediately, right now, raise the strength of these little brats!

Let them all Ascension!

...

Nine Heavens Divine City, Zixiao Dao Field.

Blood stained the battle platform cast from purple gold.

Slaughter became the only main theme here.

Hundreds of Prodigies from all over the Eastern Region were now red-eyed with killing.

The light of Magic Treasures, the roar of Divine Abilities, and the screams before death intertwined into the craziest, bloodiest movement.

The temptation of two portions of immortal emperor origin source was enough to make anyone abandon reason and turn into a beast.

"Boom—!"

Luo Lie, the Saint of Burning Heaven Valley, burned with red-gold flames all over his body. With one punch, he blasted a Loose Cultivator at the Early-stage True Immortal directly into charcoal!

"Hahaha! immortal emperor origin source! It's mine!" He laughed wildly, scanning his surroundings, looking for the next prey.

On the other side, Bibo Fairy was no longer ethereal and refined.

With a wave of her plain hand, the vast green waves turned into endless killing blades, instantly mincing three aristocratic family disciples who were besieging her, leaving no bones behind!

Here was Hell.

And it was Heaven.

Every moment, people fell.

And every moment, someone was snatching others' Luck and resources in crazy slaughter, becoming stronger.

And in this chaotic meat grinder.

There were three figures, but they seemed out of place.

Ye Chenfeng, Zhao Wuyou, Su Linger.

The three of them, back to back, formed a small battle formation, standing in a corner of the battle platform.

Their cultivation was at the Earth Immortal Realm.

Among this group of Prodigies who were often Heavenly Immortals or True Immortals, they were like three sheep that had broken into a wolf pack.

Almost the moment they stepped onto the battle platform.

More than a hundred gazes filled with greed and murderous intent locked onto them!

"Kill those three from the Myriad Dao Divine Sect first!"

"They have the lowest cultivation! Clear them out first!"

"That's right! What about the Imperial Dynasty's reward? Dead people can't enjoy the treatment of a prince!"

"Kill them! They must have heavy treasures on them!"

A shout was like igniting a powder keg.

Instantly!

Dozens of Prodigies, like sharks smelling blood, rushed towards the three of them crazily from all directions!

Blade light, sword shadows, thunder and fire, ice and frost!

Dozens of completely different Divine Abilities converged into a torrent of destruction that could instantly tear a Perfection True Immortal into pieces, covering the three of them!

"Well come!"

In Zhao Wuyou's golden pupils, Battle Intent erupted like a volcano!

He had no fear at all; instead, he took a step forward, protecting Ye Chenfeng and Su Linger behind him!

"Dragon God Transformation!"

With an explosive shout!

The Archaic Dragon God Bloodline in his body burned crazily!

"Roar—!"

A high-pitched dragon roar, filled with supreme majesty, resounded through the sky!

Bright golden light shot up from his body!

His figure grew rapidly in the golden light!

Golden dragon scales, as if cast from divine metal, covered his entire body!

On his forehead, two rugged dragon horns broke through the flesh!

A terrifying aura, far exceeding the Perfection Earth Immortal, swept across the field!

"Fight!"

The dragon emperor halberd in his hand swept forward violently!

A golden halberd light, a hundred feet long and condensed into substance, carrying the supreme power of tearing the sky, fiercely met the torrent of Divine Abilities!

"Boom—!"

A deafening loud noise!

The entire Zixiao Dao platform trembled violently because of this!

That torrent of Divine Abilities launched by dozens of Prodigies together was actually split in half by Zhao Wuyou's halberd!

The violent energy rolled backward towards both sides crazily, directly blowing away a dozen Cultivators who were rushing at the front!

"What?!"

"He... he blocked it?"

All the besiegers were stunned!

An Earth Immortal could actually withstand the joint attack of dozens of Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals head-on?

What kind of monster is this?!

"Frost Heaven, Snowy Ground!"

Just at the moment they lost their composure, a cold voice rang out leisurely.

Su Linger made her move.

She formed seals with both hands, and ice-blue divine light flowed endlessly in her eyes.

An extreme chill that reached the bone marrow quietly spread with her as the center.

"Crack... crackle..."

Visible to the naked eye, ice-blue frost, as if possessing life, followed the ground and covered the area of a thousand feet at an unreasonable speed!

All Cultivators who stepped into this area felt their bodies stiffen suddenly!

They discovered in horror that the circulation speed of the immortal essence in their bodies was suppressed by at least 30%!

Their movements also became slow, sluggish, and stiff, like slow motion!

"Not good! It's a Domain Divine Ability!"

"Damn it! What kind of cold air is this! Even my protective true fire can't stop it!"

The crowd fell into Chaos instantly!

"One sword, Chaos."

Just at this moment, a flat, emotionless voice rang in their ears.

Ye Chenfeng drew his sword.

There was no bright sword light, no terrifying pressure.

There was only a gray shimmer that seemed to come from the beginning of Chaos.

He swung his sword.

The movement was understated.

That gray sword light, seemingly slow, seemed to span the distance of time and space.

In an instant, it crossed the necks of more than a dozen Prodigies who were frozen by the cold air.

"Puff, puff, puff, puff—!"

More than a dozen heads flew into the sky!

Blood, like a fountain, stained that ice-blue frosty sky and snowy ground!

One sword, instantly killing more than a dozen Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals!

This scene completely stunned everyone!

The remaining dozens of besiegers retreated crazily as if they had seen a ghost!

Looking at those three figures, like gods and demons, their eyes were filled with fear.

These were not three sheep!

These were three prehistoric dragons in sheep's clothing!

"Trash!"

In the distance, Luo Lie, the Saint of Burning Heaven Valley, saw this scene and let out an angry shout.

"A bunch of buckets! Can't even take down three Earth Immortals!"

Flames surged all over his body, turning into a stream of light, and he was about to go down himself!

But the moment he moved.

A fatal, cold sense of crisis struck from behind him without warning!

"Who!"

Luo Lie was terrified in his heart, and without thinking, he threw a punch backward!

The red-gold flames turned into a roaring fire Qilin, slamming fiercely behind him!

"Sss."

A soft sound.

A pitch-black figure, like a ghost, passed through the flames.

Luo Lie's pupils shrank violently!

He saw a black Magic Treasure in the shape of a bone blade, carrying a wisp of dark aura that could devour Souls, already pressed against his throat.

Fast!

Fast to the extreme!

He didn't even have time to react!

"You are too noisy."

A hoarse, emotionless voice rang in his ear.

The hair all over Luo Lie's body stood on end instantly!

He could feel that as long as that Magic Treasure moved forward a bit more.

His head would be completely separated from his body!

"Stop!"

An explosive shout came from not far away!

It was Lei Ming, another Personal Disciple of the Purple Cloud Sacred Land!

Seeing Luo Lie in danger, he immediately turned into a thunderbolt and punched the black shadow!

The black shadow seemed to click his tongue with some regret.

He withdrew the Magic Treasure, flashed, and merged into the shadows, disappearing.

Luo Lie, having survived the disaster, panted heavily, his back already soaked with cold sweat.

"Wh... what was that just now?"

"Is it a human or a ghost?"

Everyone who saw this scene felt their scalps tingle.

Silent, one-hit kill!

There was actually such a terrifying assassin hidden on this battle platform!

"The fourth one."

Ye Chenfeng's gaze looked at the shadow and spoke slowly.

"Come out."

The shadow wriggled slightly.

Ye Wushang's figure slowly emerged.

He nodded to Ye Chenfeng and the other two, which counted as a greeting.

Then, he licked his lips, his pitch-black eyes flickering with bloodthirsty, excited light.

"The Souls here... taste very good."

The four finally gathered.

And their appearance completely changed the situation on the battle platform.

The originally chaotic melee was vaguely divided into two camps.

One side was led by top forces like the Purple Cloud Sacred Land, Burning Heaven Valley, and Bibo Mansion, with more than two hundred Prodigies.

The other side was the Myriad Dao Divine Sect, these four monsters with the lowest cultivation but the most terrifying combat power.

"Everyone!"

Lei Ming of the Purple Cloud Sacred Land shouted!

"These four people have unknown origins and weird methods! They are the biggest obstacles for us to seize the immortal emperor origin source!"

"I propose that we join forces to completely clear them out!"

"Then, we will compete for the final ownership based on our own abilities!"

"Good!"

"I agree!"

"Kill them first!"

This proposal was immediately responded to by everyone!

In the face of huge benefits, so-called pride and so-called single combat became a joke.

"Boom—!"

The auras of more than two hundred Prodigies converged together!

That terrifying pressure made the entire Nine Heavens Divine City tremble!

"Heh, are you finally going to get serious?"

Zhao Wuyou carried the dragon emperor halberd, and in his golden pupils, Battle Intent burned to the peak!

"Come!"

"Fight!"

Ye Chenfeng, Su Linger, and Ye Wushang were also filled with sky-high Battle Intent!

They were fearless!

"Kill!"

Lei Ming gave the order!

More than two hundred figures turned into more than two hundred streams of light, like a meteorite rain destroying the world, rushing towards the four of them again!

This time, there was no more testing!

Everyone brought out their housekeeping skills!

Town-Sect Magic Treasures!

Bottom-of-the-box Divine Abilities!

World-destroying kill arrays!

The entire Zixiao Dao platform was completely submerged by endless light at this moment!

"Chaos Sword Realm!"

Ye Chenfeng gave a low drink, and the long sword in his hand was inserted into the ground!

Hum—!

A gray Sword Qi light curtain shot into the sky, firmly protecting the four of them inside!

"Boom, boom, boom, boom—!"

Countless attacks, like a violent storm, smashed fiercely onto the Sword Realm!

The Sword Realm trembled violently, emitting bursts of unbearable wailing!

Fine cracks began to appear on it!

"Hold on!"

Zhao Wuyou gave an explosive shout, injecting all his immortal essence into Ye Chenfeng's body!

Su Linger and Ye Wushang did the same!

The power of the four people was perfectly fused together at this moment!

"Myriad Dao Return to One!"

This was the joint attack technique Revered Master taught them!

With the blessing of the three people's power, the crumbling Chaos Sword Realm became solid again!

But there were too many attacks!

It was too dense!

"Puff!"

Ye Chenfeng bore the brunt and spat out a mouthful of blood!

His face instantly turned pale!

"Senior Brother!" Su Linger exclaimed.

"I'm fine!" Ye Chenfeng gritted his teeth, but his eyes became brighter and brighter!

"This feeling... not enough!"

"Come again!"

He actually took the initiative to withdraw part of his defense!

More attacks penetrated the Sword Realm and smashed fiercely onto the four of them!

"Puff! Puff! Puff!"

Zhao Wuyou, Su Linger, and Ye Wushang also spat blood together and were severely injured!

Their Physical Bodies were crazily cycling between destruction and reorganization!

Their Divine Souls were struggling crazily on the edge of life and death!

"Crazy! They are all crazy!"

Off the stage, all the spectators were stunned!

They had never seen such a crazy, suicidal fighting style!

"This... this is using our hands to temper themselves?"

Lei Ming also saw their intention, and a look of horror appeared on his face!

"Kill! Increase the attack! Don't give them a chance! Crush them directly!"

He roared crazily!

He was afraid!

He saw something in these four people that made him feel afraid!

That was a supreme Dao Heart of seeking life through death!
