215: Visitors from the Immortal Realm

"Ant! How dare you covet the treasures of my Immortal Palace! You seek death!"

The voice boomed like thunder from the Nine Heavens, carrying an undeniable dominance and a bone-deep contempt!

The terrifying falling fire was not a meteor, but a figure!

His body burned with a cyan-gold Immortal Flame, tearing through the sky, bringing with it a terrifying pressure capable of incinerating all things, and brazenly descended upon the Enlightenment Abyss!

The falling fire suddenly receded, revealing a young man clad in a cyan-gold immortal-patterned robe.

His face was handsome, yet it held the indifference of one who looked down upon all living beings. A cyan leaf mark on his brow shimmered with abstruse immortal light, and his aura was as profound as the sea, clearly that of a True Immortal Realm!

However, at this moment, the immense immortal power surging around him, though far exceeding that of an ordinary Mahayana Peak, was firmly suppressed by the Laws of this realm, unable to break through that invisible boundary, stabilizing at the extreme Peak of the Mahayana stage—the Half-step True Immortal Realm!

This person was a Disciple of the Evergreen Immortal Palace in the Immortal Realm, who, by the Immortal Venerable's command, sensed that the enlightenment tea tree in the Myriad Ages Evergreen Realm had condensed spiritual consciousness. He had specifically crossed realms to collect this Innate Spiritual Root!

In his eyes, all living beings in this realm were mere ants and dust.

His gaze ignored the mountains of corpses and seas of blood below, directly locking onto the enlightenment tea tree, and then, with a hint of disgust, swept towards Xiao Zhuo, the strongest in the field.

"Lower Realm lowly creature, do you also dare to covet the Immortal Palace's Spiritual Root? Commit suicide here, and I will leave your corpse intact!" The Immortal Envoy's voice was cold, like a pronouncement.

He didn't even bother to ask for Xiao Zhuo's name, as if crushing an insect required no knowledge of its identity.

Xiao Zhuo's hand gripping the saber remained motionless, his eyes growing even colder, with only the dark-gold lightning silently roaring on the saber's edge.

Responding to the Immortal Envoy was Xiao Zhuo's sudden burst of terrifying killing intent!

Buzz!

Under the command of the The Way of Freedom, the triple Blood Fiend Domain, triple Thunder Tribulation Domain, and triple Space Domain instantly overlapped and unfolded! Viscous blood-red, violent dark-gold lightning, and twisted, folded spatial ripples instantly filled a thousand-zhang radius!

Furthermore, a layer of pure, crimson Slaughter Domain, like a halo, covered it! Slaughter Domain second stage—battle power increased twofold!

Boom!

Xiao Zhuo's aura was like an ancient beast awakening from slumber. His Physical Body's Qi and blood roared, and his Mahayana Early Stage magic power and Divine Soul, augmented by multiple Physiques and Domains, instantly surged to a terrifying level capable of shaking a True Immortal in the Middle Thousand Worlds!

The Innate Blood God Body activated! Dark-gold divine blood flowed beneath his skin, and a layer of God-Slaying Blood Flame, viscous like blood crystal yet containing an aura capable of incinerating all things, rose around him!

"Slash!"

Xiao Zhuo took a step, activating Universe God Step! His figure seemed to exist simultaneously at several spatial nodes, completely breaking free from the Immortal Envoy's Divine Thought lock!

Wielding heavenly cleaver to tear through space, a destructive saber Qi, interwoven with dark-red, dark-gold, and gray-white, wrapped in God-Slaying Blood Flame, dark-gold Thunder Tribulation Saber Intent, and the Soul Weapon condensed by the Soul Slaughtering Sacred Method, silently yet faster than thought, pierced through countless leaf-blade blockades and directly struck the Immortal Envoy's head!

"Hmm? A spatial Divine Body? A bit interesting!" A hint of surprise flashed in the Immortal Envoy's eyes, quickly turning into deeper coldness and disdain.

"The light of a firefly dares to contend with the bright moon! Immortal Art—Azurewood Suppresses World!"

He formed a hand seal with one hand and pressed forward!

Buzz!

Countless cyan-gold immortal patterns instantly spread and intertwined in the Void Realm, forming an enormous cyan-gold ancient shield!

On the shield's surface, myriad trees grew, and mountains and rivers faintly appeared, as if condensing the weight and vitality of a world!

This was an Immortal Realm defensive Immortal Art, containing a trace of World Power. Although weakened by the Laws of this realm, its power far surpassed any defensive Divine Ability in the Lower Realm!

Rumble—!!!

The three-colored saber Qi fiercely struck the cyan-gold ancient shield!

Blinding light instantly swallowed everyone's vision! A violent energy shockwave, like billions of sharp blades, furiously cut in all directions! The rocks at the edge of the deep pit below silently turned into dust!

Ximen Feng and the others, who were already heavily injured, were directly swept away by the aftershock of this saber strike, falling into the Enlightenment Abyss.

Crack, crack, crack!

A teeth-grinding sound of shattering echoed!

The cyan-gold ancient shield vibrated violently, and countless fine cracks instantly spread across its surface, centered on the point of impact!

The phantom of myriad trees, mountains, and rivers swayed violently, as if about to collapse!

The Immortal Envoy's expression changed slightly, and for the first time, a look of solemnity appeared in his eyes!

He felt a terrifying power of destruction, erosion, and shattering Laws furiously impacting the Origin of his Immortal Art! The dark-red blood flame could actually erode immortal essence! The dark-gold lightning carried the judgment will of the Heavenly Tribulation! And the gray-white sharp edge directly pierced the Divine Soul!

"What a bizarre Saber Intent! What a domineering Blood Flame!" The Immortal Envoy was secretly alarmed, his hand seals changing again, and immense immortal power furiously poured into the ancient shield!

"Suppress it for me!"

Buzz!

The cyan-gold ancient shield shone brightly, immortal patterns flowing, forcefully stabilizing its body, and firmly blocking Xiao Zhuo's saber strike, which was enough to kill an ordinary Half-step True Immortal!

The terrifying forces of both sides furiously wrestled on the shield's surface, tearing the space into spiderweb-like dark cracks!

"Nothing more than this! How can mere Lower Realm brute force shake an Immortal Art!" The Immortal Envoy snorted coldly, his other hand already raised, fingers spread, aimed at Xiao Zhuo.

"Immortal Art—Myriad Trees Imprison Heaven!"

Boom!

The space around Xiao Zhuo instantly solidified! Countless incredibly thick cyan immortal essence chains formed out of thin air. Each chain was branded with abstruse sealing immortal patterns, like living giant pythons, ignoring spatial distance, instantly coiling around Xiao Zhuo's limbs and body!

Wherever the chains passed, even the space of the overlapping Domains let out an unbearable groan, about to be completely sealed!

This Immortal Art could actually forcibly imprison space!

"Hmph! Lower Realm ant! Be suppressed!" The Immortal Envoy roared, clenching his five fingers tightly!

The immortal patterns on the cyan immortal essence chains coiling around Xiao Zhuo shone brightly, erupting with terrifying sealing power!

Xiao Zhuo's triple overlapping Domains were forcibly compressed, emitting piercing wails!

The God-Slaying Blood Flame surged violently, attempting to burn through the chains, but the quality of the cyan-gold immortal power was extremely high. Although the blood flame could erode it, its speed was far slower than the chains' tightening speed!

Immense force squeezed into his flesh and blood, and his bones groaned under the strain!

A cruel pleasure flashed in the Immortal Envoy's eyes, as if he had already seen the fate of this ant being crushed by the immortal chains.

"Brute force?" Xiao Zhuo's icy voice clearly came through the strangling chains, carrying a hint of mockery.

Buzz!

Beneath the skin of his forehead, a dazzling silver light suddenly lit up! Heaven-Observing Divine Eye—Open!

In that instant, the world in his eyes became completely different!

The cyan-gold chains coiling around him were no longer a seamless whole. The circulating immortal pattern meridians, energy nodes, and subtle flaws at the junction of Laws within them were clearly reflected in Xiao Zhuo's Sea of Consciousness, as if observing patterns on his palm!

"Break!"

Inside Xiao Zhuo's body, the Divine Intent-level Thunder Tribulation Saber Intent erupted without reservation!

The dark-gold lightning on the heavenly cleaver saber body instantly compressed to its extreme, transforming into a saber glow of lightning, condensed like silk, yet containing the will to shatter all Laws!

This saber glow did not slash blindly, but precisely pierced into the most core and most fragile Law node of the Myriad Trees Imprison Heaven, captured by the Heaven-Observing Divine Eye!

Chii—!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a sharp sound like a red-hot branding iron piercing into solid ice!

The seemingly indestructible cyan-gold immortal power chains, containing the World Power of sealing, had their internal immortal patterns suddenly become chaotic and disintegrate the moment they were struck at the node by the lightning saber glow!

The immense immortal power constituting the chains was like a punctured balloon, instantly losing its stable form and violently scattering!

Boom!

Dozens of chains coiling around Xiao Zhuo simultaneously snapped and exploded into pieces!

Cyan-gold immortal essence turbulence (chaotic flow) swept wildly in all directions like an out-of-control torrent, tearing more cracks in space!

"What?!" The Immortal Envoy's composure and disdain instantly froze, turning into an expression of unbelievable astonishment!

His meticulously cultivated Immortal Art was actually broken at its core by a Lower Realm Mahayana Realm Cultivator, in such a precise and brutal manner, with a single saber strike?!

Xiao Zhuo's figure stepped out from the scattered immortal power chaotic flow. Universe God Step activated, spatial ripples undulating, instantly freeing him from the tearing of the energy chaotic flow.

The God-Slaying Blood Flame around him burned fiercely, repairing the terrifying wounds inflicted by the chains. The heavenly cleaver was pointed diagonally, its tip aimed at the Immortal Envoy, and dark-gold lightning flickered on the blade.

"Immortal Arts, are nothing more than this." Xiao Zhuo's voice was cold, carrying a fierce killing intent from having just broken free from his restraints.

The Immortal Envoy's face completely darkened. There was no longer any hint of contempt in his eyes, replaced by towering rage at having his dignity offended by an ant, and a hint of solemnity that even he was unwilling to admit.

"Good! What a Lower Realm ant! I truly underestimated you!" The Immortal Envoy's voice was bone-chillingly cold, and the cyan-gold Immortal Flame around him surged violently, his aura climbing steadily. The suppressed immortal power surged wildly at the extreme edge, faintly showing signs of surpassing the limits of this realm!

He slowly raised both hands. Cyan-gold immortal patterns flowed and intertwined between his fingers like living things, and a destructive aura, even deeper and more terrifying than "Myriad Trees Imprison Heaven," began to brew.

"To force this Envoy to use 'Azure Emperor World-Breaking Finger,' you are proud enough! Now, be utterly annihilated!"
