225: Chapter 225 A Giant's Scheme, The Aura of an Empress!

Lightless Immortal Domain.

Inside the Central Immortal Palace, immortal music drifted and enchanting sounds echoed within the vast hall.

Several beautiful and enchanting fallen fairies were dancing tremulously in the center of the hall.

Above the hall, three giant thrones forged from supreme immortal gold and True Dragon skeletons floated quietly in the Void Realm.

Supreme Giant, Supreme Giant, and Ran Zun, the three Immortal Kings, sat high upon them.

On the long bone table in front of them, peerless immortal wine brewed from the heart's blood of True Immortals was laid out, emitting a nauseating yet powerful bloody scent filled with vital essence.

"Come, Brother Ran Zun."

Supreme Giant picked up a huge wine goblet polished from the skull of a Primordial Fierce Beast.

He tilted his head back and drained the crimson, viscous wine in one gulp.

"It's just a setback in the Lower Realm, why keep such a long face?"

Supreme Giant casually threw the goblet onto the ground, making a crisp sound.

"With Brother Supreme Giant and me here, that Xuanhuang Great World is nothing more than a toy in our palms that can be crushed at any time."

Hearing this, Ran Zun's expression softened slightly.

He looked down at his empty right arm.

The overbearing Sword Qi at the wound had been forcibly suppressed by Supreme Giant, no longer eroding his immortal Origin.

"Brother Supreme Giant is right."

Ran Zun picked up the wine cup with his remaining left hand, his eyes sinister.

"Although that Su Xuanchen is a bit strange, he is ultimately just a Mortal World Immortal who has just made a Breakthrough."

"In front of two Supreme Giants, he is nothing!"

He gnashed his teeth and swallowed the wine as if he were swallowing Su Xuanchen's flesh and blood.

"When we descend upon the Xuanhuang Great World, I will personally crush his bones inch by inch and pull out his Divine Soul to roast over the Nine Nether Demon Fire for ten thousand years!"

Supreme Giant, sitting on the main seat, was playing with a brilliant star core in his hand.

This star core was the world core he had extracted after casually crushing a lower world.

He looked expressionlessly at the dancing fairies below, his gaze indifferent to the extreme.

"The Xuanhuang Great World has been silent for too long."

Supreme Giant's voice was flat, yet it carried an overbearing Aura that held the power of life and death over all things.

"In the primordial battle back then, we failed to completely wipe them out, leaving behind a root of trouble."

"This time, let's pull them up by the roots."

"All the living beings of that world, along with that broken World Tree, will be sacrificed in blood to serve as nourishment for us to break through to a higher Realm."

Supreme Giant laughed out loud.

"Just what I had in mind!"

The three of them toasted and chatted merrily.

With just a few words, they easily decided the life or death of a vast world.

In their eyes, the Xuanhuang Great World was not worthy of being called an opponent at all; it was just an orchard that could be harvested at any time.

Just then.

Outside the hall, a dark shadow rushed in.

A Dark General whose cultivation had reached the Peak of the immortal Realm knelt heavily on one knee outside the hall door.

He didn't even dare to lift his head, his voice trembling and filled with awe.

"Reporting to the three Lords!"

"An envoy from the Fallen Blood Phoenix Clan requests an audience outside the hall!"

The immortal music in the hall came to an abrupt halt.

The dancing fallen fairies were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground, shivering and not even daring to breathe.

Supreme Giant raised an eyebrow and set down his wine cup.

"The Fallen Blood Phoenix Clan?"

He turned to look at Supreme Giant, a subtle smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that old fogey of the Blood Phoenix Clan has truly awakened from his slumber."

Ran Zun snorted coldly, his face full of disdain.

"So what if the old thing has awakened? Why send an envoy to our Lightless Immortal Domain?"

Supreme Giant stopped playing with the star core.

In his eyes, deep as an abyss, a calculating light that saw through everything flashed.

"Tell him to get in here."

Supreme Giant ordered indifferently.

The general outside the hall felt as if he had been granted a great pardon, hurriedly kowtowing and withdrawing to pass the order.

A moment later.

A series of heavy and messy footsteps came from outside the hall.

The envoy of the Fallen Blood Phoenix Clan walked cautiously into the hall with his head lowered.

This envoy was a genuine Quasi-Immortal King!

In the Dark Great Realm, a Quasi-Immortal King is also considered a hegemon, enough to rule over billions of living beings and stand high above.

But now.

As soon as he stepped into the Central Immortal Palace, his legs began to shake uncontrollably.

Inside the hall, the terrifying pressures of three Immortal King-level entities were intertwined.

Although Supreme Giant and the others did not intentionally release their Auras.

But just that natural overflow of life-level suppression made this Quasi-Immortal King feel suffocated, as if he were carrying a hundred thousand Primordial Divine Mountains on his back.

"Thud!"

The envoy simply could not withstand this invisible pressure.

His knees buckled, and he knelt heavily on the hard obsidian floor.

Beads of cold sweat covered his forehead, dripping frantically down his cheeks.

The bones all over his body were making crackling sounds from being overwhelmed, as if they would shatter at any moment.

"This lowly one... greets the three Supreme Lords!"

The envoy buried his head deep between his arms, his voice trembling so much he couldn't even speak a complete sentence properly.

He didn't even have the courage to look up at the three people above, and could only stare fixedly at the floor in front of him.

The hall was as silent as death.

Only the envoy's heavy and terrified breathing echoed.

A full ten breaths passed.

Supreme Giant, on the main seat, finally spoke slowly, breaking the suffocating silence.

"Since the Ancient Ancestor of your Blood Phoenix Clan has revived."

Supreme Giant's voice was extremely flat, showing no emotion.

"Why hasn't he come to see me in person?"

"By sending a piece of trash like you, does he look down on my Lightless Immortal Domain?"

Boom!

As Supreme Giant's words fell.

An indescribable and terrifying pressure, like the Heavenly River pouring down, slammed onto the envoy's back!

"Bang!"

The envoy was slammed directly to the ground by this pressure.

The incredibly hard obsidian floor was forced into a human-shaped crater.

"Pfft!"

The envoy spat out a large mouthful of purple-gold blood.

His internal organs were almost displaced, and his Divine Soul was shaking violently, as if he would experience Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering in the next second.

"Lord, please calm your anger! Lord, spare my life!"

The envoy was scared out of his wits.

He didn't even care to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, desperately kowtowing in the pit and begging for mercy.

"The Ancient Ancestor absolutely has no such intention! Even with ten thousand times the courage, the Ancient Ancestor would not dare to be disrespectful to the three Lords!"

"The Ancient Ancestor has just awakened from an endless era of slumber, and his Origin has not yet fully recovered."

The envoy spoke extremely fast, fearing that if he were one word too slow, he would be obliterated on the spot.

"Furthermore, the Ancient Ancestor is mobilizing the entire clan's army, preparing to invade the Xuanhuang Great World!"

"He really couldn't get away, so he specially ordered me to come ahead and report to the three Lords!"

Hearing the words 'Xuanhuang Great World'.

The three people on the thrones all paused their movements.

Supreme Giant sat up straight, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Oh?"

"Your Ancient Ancestor just woke up; instead of staying in his territory to recover his strength, why is he running off to attack the Xuanhuang Great World?"

Ran Zun was also full of confusion.

"Although that place is a wasteland, it's a tough nut to crack right now. Why is your Blood Phoenix Clan joining in the fun?"

The envoy lay in the pit, explaining while trembling all over.

"In reply to the Lord."

"It's because... because there is a native in the Xuanhuang Great World named Su Xuanchen!"

"He is bold enough to have attacked our clan's Saintly Imperial Daughter, Flame Consort, and even suppressed her!"

The envoy gnashed his teeth, his tone filled with extreme anger and humiliation.

"The Saintly Imperial Daughter possesses the Nine Nether Flame Phoenix Bloodline and is the future hope of our clan."

"The Ancient Ancestor was thunderously enraged upon learning of this!"

"He swore to trample the Xuanhuang Great World and skin Su Xuanchen alive to wash away our clan's shame!"

The hall fell into silence again.

Supreme Giant, Supreme Giant, and Ran Zun looked at each other.

After a brief silence.

"Hahahaha!"

Supreme Giant suddenly burst into loud laughter.

The laughter was filled with blatant mockery and playfulness.

Ran Zun also followed with a cold laugh.

"So that's how it is."

Ran Zun looked at the envoy lying on the ground, his gaze like he was looking at an idiot.

"Your Ancient Ancestor really knows how to calculate."

Supreme Giant leaned back on his throne, a mocking curve appearing on his lips.

What kind of figures were the three of them?

Supreme Giants who had lived through countless eras!

As soon as the envoy's words were spoken, they instantly saw through the Blood Phoenix Ancient Ancestor's little underhanded intentions.

What 'thunderous rage'?

What 'trampling the Xuanhuang'?

It was all nonsense!

The Blood Phoenix Ancient Ancestor had just revived, and his strength had not yet recovered to its Peak.

He must have sensed Su Xuanchen's terrifying combat power and become frightened!

He feared that if he led the army alone, not only would he fail to rescue the Saintly Imperial Daughter, but he would also be ground into the dirt by Su Xuanchen and end up dead.

That's why he deliberately sent an envoy to the Lightless Immortal Domain to 'report'.

In name, it was a report.

In reality, it was to test the waters and seek support!

The Blood Phoenix Ancient Ancestor wanted to borrow the influence of the three Supreme Giants to crush Su Xuanchen and preserve the face of the Blood Phoenix Clan.

"Enough, stop kowtowing."

Supreme Giant waved his hand impatiently.

The terrifying pressure weighing on the envoy instantly vanished without a trace.

The envoy felt a huge weight lifted, panting heavily as he struggled to climb out of the pit and kneel properly again.

"Go back and tell your Ancient Ancestor."

Supreme Giant looked down at the envoy from above, his tone carrying an unquestionable authority.

"He wants to invade the Xuanhuang Great World; I grant it."

"Go ahead and do it."

"My Lightless Immortal Domain will be his strongest backup."

Hearing this, the envoy could hardly believe his ears.

He thought he was going to lose his life here today.

He didn't expect the three Supreme Lords to agree so readily!

"Thank you, three Lords! Thank you, three Lords!"

The envoy was so moved that tears filled his eyes, and he kowtowed repeatedly, his forehead thumping against the obsidian floor.

"This lowly one will roll back now and report the Lord's decree to the Ancient Ancestor!"

The envoy was as if granted a great pardon.

He scrambled out of the hall and turned into a streak of light, frantically fleeing toward the Blood Phoenix Clan's territory.

Watching the envoy's departing back.

Inside the hall, the smiles on the faces of the three men instantly became cold and sinister.

"Brother Supreme Giant, your move of 'killing with a borrowed knife' is truly brilliant."

Supreme Giant raised a freshly filled cup of immortal wine and toasted Supreme Giant from afar.

"That old fogey of the Blood Phoenix Clan wants to use us as a tool."

"He has no idea that he has already become a stone to test the path."

Ran Zun tapped the armrest of the throne with his left hand, a cruel light flashing in his eyes.

"That Su Xuanchen is very strange."

"Let the Blood Phoenix Ancient Ancestor go first to probe his background."

"If Su Xuanchen still has any hidden trump cards, then it will be the people of the Blood Phoenix Clan who die, and we will suffer no loss."

"If Su Xuanchen is already at the end of his rope."

Ran Zun sneered repeatedly, as if he had already seen the scene of Su Xuanchen's tragic death.

"Then the Blood Phoenix Ancient Ancestor will naturally trample the Xuanhuang Great World."

"At that time, we will step forward and reap the rewards, directly taking over the Origin of that wasteland!"

Supreme Giant picked up the wine goblet and took a small sip.

"The Blood Phoenix Clan is, after all, only a lower imperial clan."

His tone was indifferent, as if he were talking about a group of insignificant ants.

"Whether they live or die has nothing to do with us."

"Come, let's continue drinking."

The three wine goblets clinked together.

Inside the Central Immortal Palace, the enchanting immortal music sounded again.

The three Immortal Kings indulged in pleasure, quietly waiting for the show to begin.

...

At the same time.

Deep within the Primordial Immortal Realm.

Endless immortal mist swirled, and ancient fragments of Law flickered in the Void Realm.

Su Xuanchen, dressed in white, walked at the very front with his hands behind his back.

Ji Luanxi and Chang Xiyue followed closely half a step behind him.

Occasionally, powerful Primordial Fierce Beasts roared and rushed out from the surroundings.

Suddenly, the immortal mist ahead churned violently.

A Three-headed Black Flame Demon Wolf, as large as a mountain, roared and rushed out!

This demon wolf emitted a terrifying Aura at the level of a Quasi-True Immortal.

From its three bloody maws, it spat out black flames capable of melting the void, having no idea how terrifying the human before it was.

"Humble intruder, die!"

The demon wolf spoke in human tongue, its three massive heads opening simultaneously as it bit down hard toward Su Xuanchen and the other two.

A violent, fishy wind blew against them, making Ji Luanxi's and Chang Xiyue's dresses flutter.

"Husband, be careful!"

Ji Luanxi cried out in alarm, instinctively wanting to activate her Nine Phoenix Sacred Body.

"It's fine."

Su Xuanchen didn't even pause his footsteps.

He didn't even look directly at the demon wolf.

He just casually raised his right hand, pressing his index and middle fingers together and making a gentle swiping motion forward.

An extremely brilliant golden sword beam shot out from his fingertips!

The sword beam expanded with the wind, instantly becoming ten thousand feet in size.

Squelch!

A soft sound rang out.

The aggressive and overbearing Three-headed Black Flame Demon Wolf's massive body suddenly froze in mid-air.

In its three pairs of cruel eyes, endless fear instantly filled them.

In the next second.

Bang!

The demon wolf's massive body was split cleanly in two from the center!

A rain of blood and fishy wind scattered everywhere.

Before the blood could even hit the ground, it was instantly evaporated into nothingness by the terrifyingly high temperature attached to the sword beam.

Instantly killed in one strike!

Clean and efficient, without the slightest hesitation.

Ji Luanxi's beautiful eyes lit up.

"Husband, you're so amazing!"

She was not stingy with her praise.

Su Xuanchen smiled faintly, withdrew his right hand, and continued walking forward.

"It's just an insect crushed at will."

His expression was relaxed, as if he were taking a leisurely stroll in his own backyard.

He was completely unaware.

In the distant Dark Great Realm, four terrifying Immortal Kings had already regarded the Xuanhuang Great World as their meal.

A catastrophe capable of destroying the entire world was quietly approaching.

The three of them passed through a strange stone forest made of colored crystals.

Ahead, a broken ancient altar appeared.

The altar was made entirely of some unknown white jade and was covered with dense ancient divine runes.

Although it was in ruins, it still emitted a heart-palpitating sacred Aura.

The moment the three of them approached the altar.

Chang Xiyue, who had been following Su Xuanchen, suddenly stopped.

On her cold and beautiful face, an extreme look of shock appeared without warning.

Her clear eyes widened instantly, staring fixedly at the broken altar.

Her delicate body trembled violently and uncontrollably.

"This... how is this possible?"

Chang Xiyue's red lips parted slightly, her voice trembling.

She suddenly turned her head and grabbed Su Xuanchen's arm.

Her fair fingers turned white at the knuckles due to the excessive force.

"Husband!"

Chang Xiyue cried out in alarm, her tone filled with unmaskable shock and excitement.

"I found it!"

"On this altar, there is the Aura of the Ancient Heavenly Court's Empress!"
