Chapter 524: Chapter 454: Meeting the Supreme Emperor!_1
"..."
Yao Wanshan and the Purple Smoke Holy Master were both stunned.
How did we get back? We were a million miles away just a moment ago. I only blinked... how did we come back?
They blinked again and again, but to their despair, they hadn’t moved an inch!
The Purple Smoke Holy Master’s eyes reddened as he discovered the Array Patterns imprinted on his body had shattered. Moreover, to instantly capture two Immortal Venerables from a million miles away... you couldn’t count on one hand the number of people who could do such a thing.
"Could you be Emperor Qingfeng!?" The Holy Master’s pupils contracted rapidly. His gaze shifted fearfully between Huang Fu and Xu Lai, finally settling on Xu Lai.
"What a pity. You realized it too late." Baize threw aside his drumsticks and clapped. "Third, Fourth, Fifth! How much longer do you plan to watch the show?"
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
Three figures flickered into existence in the sky.
The first was a humanoid creature, roughly thirty feet tall, with a pair of blood-red wings on its back that looked somewhat eerie. One wing was formed from shimmering ice crystals, while the other burned with flames that seemed to scorch the very void.
The moment he appeared, Yao Wanshan’s heart went cold.
I know him... It’s Dong Yanbing, the Fifth Divine General of the Heavenly Court! He’s from the Twinning Clan, ranked twenty-second among the races of the Immortal Domain.
The Twinning Clan was born with one wing of ice and one of fire, excelling in both ice and fire-based Divine Skills and laws. This Divine General, along with Divine General Taotie, was listed by the various races of the Immortal Domain as one of the Three Evils of the Heavenly Court.
The second figure was an exquisitely beautiful young woman. She walked barefoot, her snow-white ankles bare, smiling sweetly as she approached Xu Lai’s side. With each of her light steps, countless flowers and trees blossomed in the void, and butterflies fluttered about as if spring itself had arrived.
The Purple Smoke Holy Master’s throat went dry.
Where she passes, spring follows... That’s Yan Chunfeng, the Fourth Divine General of the Heavenly Court! The one who once left half the Western Immortal Domain without a single blade of grass...
The third person to appear was unremarkable, dressed in plain clothes. However, he rode a very ugly, large green turtle, and a long black snake was coiled around his arm. He shook his head and drawled, "Divine General Baize, please don’t mind me. I’m slow... four legs move slowly, you know."
Yao Wanshan’s face turned ashen.
The Third Divine General of the Heavenly Court... Xuanwu...
The three newly arrived Divine Generals came before Xu Lai and bowed with clasped fists. "We pay our respects to The Supreme Emperor."
"We pay our respects to The Supreme Emperor!"
Four hundred thousand Heavenly Court soldiers roared in unison, a sound that shook the entire Eastern Desolate Domain. Even the mist enveloping the Mass Burial Mound thinned and dissipated significantly.
Yu Guiwan was dumbstruck. Xu Lai stood with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless. Yet, at that moment, his majesty was immeasurable, as vast as the heavens themselves!
She bit her lower lip hard, tears welling in her eyes.
This is him... This is Father’s final disciple, my little junior brother, Xu Qingfeng! What a pity... If only Father could have seen this, he would surely rest in peace with a smile.
"Cool, huh?" Xu Lai suddenly turned around and blinked. In that instant, his imposing aura vanished completely.
"..."
Yu Guiwan kicked him in the leg. "Xu Qingfeng, you give me back my tears!" she said angrily.
"HAHAHAHAHA!" Xu Lai threw his head back and laughed. When he turned back, his face once again bore an indescribable pressure. "Where are the soldiers of the Heavenly Court?"
"We are here!" The uniform shout echoed across the sky.
"For those who offend the Heavenly Court, what is their fate?" Xu Lai asked casually.
The reply, however, was a unified roar that threatened to shatter the firmament.
"ANNIHILATE THEM!"
Those two simple words directly shattered the psychological defenses of Yao Wanshan and the Purple Smoke Holy Master, leaving them without the slightest thought of escape.
"The Supreme Emperor, I... I am the Purple Smoke Stone, born from the Mass Burial Mound! I know everything about the Corpse Emperor! I..." The Purple Smoke Holy Master’s face was a mask of desperation. He tried to beg for mercy, but it was too late.
Baize pointed a finger, piercing straight through his brain. At the same time, his Divine Sense plunged into the Holy Master’s crumbling sea of consciousness to search it.
Yao Wanshan let out a wretched chuckle. Without even begging for mercy, he slammed a palm against his own head, committing suicide before the Mass Burial Mound.
At the same time, a great, mournful sound swept across the Universe as a fiery red meteor shower blazed through the cosmos. Instantly, every Cultivator in the Eastern Immortal Domain—and indeed, the entire Immortal Domain—stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky in shock.
This was an Immortal’s Demise. When an expert above the Immortal Venerable Realm died, their essence would transform into a meteor shower, streaking from their place of death to the Immortal Domain’s forbidden land, the Samsara Sea.
"It’s an Immortal’s Demise! An Immortal Venerable has fallen!"
"Not one, but two! I can sense two completely different sets of laws..."
"..."
「Eastern Immortal Domain. Within the Green Sect.」
A woman in a long green dress gazed into the distance, cradling an orange kitten that had been transformed from Wanxia. Her gaze was fixed on the Mass Burial Mound.
"Domain Master, an Immortal Venerable has fallen in our Eastern Immortal Domain," a crisp voice rang out. It belonged to a timid little girl, perhaps seven or eight years old, who was standing on her tiptoes, trying to get a better look.
"Mm. It’s Yao Wanshan from Tianmo Palace and that stone from the Purple Smoke Holy Lands," Fairy Qing Yuan said nonchalantly.
"The Purple Smoke Stone?" The little maid’s eyes widened. "Domain Master, we should go get that stone right away! It’s a treasure!"
"I’m afraid it can’t be retrieved."
"But Domain Master, you’re in the Quasi-Emperor Realm. If you want it, who could possibly snatch it from you?"
"That’s right. No one could snatch it from me. But when I face him... I have never won."
"..." The little maid pondered for a long while before cautiously venturing, "Could it be... The Supreme Emperor? It doesn’t matter. It’s just a worthless stone anyway."
Just then, a giant purple stone fell at the Sect Gate of the Green Sect. It was wreathed in purple mist, and the faint sound of the Great Dao circulated around it. The little maid had followed Qing Yuan for over three hundred years and naturally had a discerning eye. She sent out her Divine Sense and exclaimed, "Domain Master, it’s the Purple Smoke Stone! It’s huge... and it’s been cleaved in two from the top!"
Qing Yuan looked toward the Green Sect’s Sect Gate, but her eyes didn’t settle on the Purple Smoke Stone. Instead, they focused on the chipped corner of the Chaos Cloudstone plaque. "This isn’t nearly enough to make amends," she murmured to herself, pursing her lips.
「Immortal’s Demise.」
An Immortal’s Demise was always a major event, no matter when it occurred. Xu Lai waved his hand, instructing the three Divine Generals—Xuanwu, Yan Chunfeng, and Dong Yanbing—to each take 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and return to their posts. As for Huang Fu and the 10,000 soldiers of the Qingfeng Camp, they split into two groups and headed for Tianmo Palace and the Purple Smoke Holy Lands respectively. As the top sects in their domains, they had undoubtedly amassed a great fortune over the years. Xu Lai wasn’t taking advantage of the chaos to rob them; he was simply letting his subordinates go for a stroll.
"The Supreme Emperor, you gave half of the Purple Smoke Stone to Fairy Qing Yuan." Divine General Baize tilted his head. "Was that to compensate for the Chaos Cloudstone, or for something else? Either way, it’s not nearly enough."
Xu Lai ignored Divine General Baize.
Yu Guiwan said earnestly, "Actually, little junior brother, during all those years I was at the Mass Burial Mound, I grew quite curious about your 300,000 beloveds. You have to tell your senior sister about them when you have time, alright?"
Xu Lai stumbled.
Three hundred thousand? Where did that number even come from? This rumor is absolutely preposterous!
"Senior sister, please don’t listen to baseless rumors. We should enter the Mass Burial Mound now." With that, Xu Lai stepped directly into the burial ground.
Yu Guiwan and Divine General Baize exchanged a glance, then followed him in.
