Nanfeng Yunxi’s expression was ice cold. She then coldly spoke, “Your demonic races might have entered the immortal realms but by acting so arrogantly, are you not afraid of the anger by the peak powers here?”
“Anger by the peak powers?” That demonic young man mockingly laughed. “We can act so domineering because we have the strength to back it up. Or do you think that the immortal realms is a kind and benevolent place? You humans have your own rules, while us demons have our rules too. In the Desolate Mountains, strength is king. Everyone has to bow down to you if their strength is inferior. Being able to attend to me is her honor.”
“Naturally, if the holy successor of the Southern Phoenix Clan can become my serving girl, things would be extremely wonderful.”
“Haha, I heard that the Southern Phoenix Clan’s maidens all have the bloodline of a phoenix. If you use them to warm your bed, your descendants might turn out to be a super-variation greater demon beast. Why don’t you try it out.” Another greater demon sitting on a throne laughed loudly.
“The Southern Phoenix Clan is a peak power of the Southern Regions, do you all dare to do so?” A voice rang out. Everyone turned to the person who spoke. It was actually a human and was an immortal king expert from the Ying Clan of the Southern Regions. However, his tone sounded as though he intentionally wanted to spur the demons on.
“This fellow is intentionally trying to create trouble.” Someone mumbled in a low voice.
“At this time, he even wants to stir the pot. The Ying Clan has never been on close terms with the Southern Phoenix Clan despite them both being located in the Southern Regions.” Another voice in the crowd murmured.
“I don’t dare to?” That demonic young man laughed. He turned to Nanfeng Yunxi, “Nanfeng Yunxi, I’ll give you one more chance. I’ll send an expert from my side and enter the trial of the Emperor’s Eye together with you. If the amount of time you can endure is longer, I’ll return your subordinate. But if the amount of time you can endure is shorter, you will become my serving girl too. How about it?”
“Don’t do it.” Nanfeng Shengge stared at Nanfeng Yunxi as she shook her head. These demons here were all royal greater demons and were extremely powerful with outstanding talents. Each and every one of them was exceptionally terrifying. She was worried that Nanfeng Yunxi might slip up.
“Naturally, if you don’t dare to, you can send someone out for the trial As long as both parties are of the same cultivation level, that would do. Don’t you humans love to talk about fairness?”
“I’ll do it myself.” Nanfeng Yunxi coldly spoke.
“Let me do it on your behalf.” At this moment, another voice rang out. From the crowd, a handsome-looking young man could be seen walking over. He looked very young and was radiating the aura of an immortal king, as well as an extraordinary bearing.
Nanfeng Yunxi froze when she saw this young man. She exclaimed in a startled manner, “Jun Mengchen.”
She then gazed in the direction behind Jun Mengchen, as though expecting ‘that person’ to appear too. After all, ‘that person’ and Jun Mengchen were from the same sect and are both extremely close. However, she didn’t see that person whom she was expecting.
“Nanfeng Yunxi, let me do this on your behalf. I’ll kill one of these vile creatures to help you vent your emotions.” Jun Mengchen stopped when he reached the side of Nanfeng Yunxi. His cultivation base was at the initial-stage of the immortal king realm but his aura was vast and imposing. He should be at the late-phase of the initial-stage.
“Courting death.” Some of the royal greater demons spoke with cold disdain.
Nanfeng Yunxi glanced at Jun Mengchen as she nodded, “Okay.”
She believed in Jun Mengchen’s strength and talent. Back then in the past, Jun Mengchen was already extremely dazzling. It was only because of Qin Wentian that Jun Mengchen’s radiance got masked. But Nanfeng Yunxi had fought side by side with Jun Mengchen before and would naturally know of how extraordinary he is.
Stepping out, Jun Mengchen ascended the battle platform. He stared at the demons and spoke, “Scram the fuck out.”
Several demons roared in anger, wanting to rush forth. The demonic young man then glanced at one of the demons as he spoke, “Let an expert from the Kui Ox Race step out.”
“Alright.” The demonic beasts nodded. After that, a powerfully-built demon stepped onto the platform as he drew his head back with a thunderous roar. Each of his steps caused the air to rumble, extremely heavy and forceful, as his aura gushed out and enveloped Jun Mengchen.
This was a demon ox from the Kui Ox Race, it’s a saint beast and a type of greater demon. The strength they had was terrifying to the extreme.
“In the past, my senior apprentice brother barbequed white tiger flesh and feasted on it. Today, I want to see if I have a chance to barbeque the flesh of a Kui Ox.” Jun Mengchen stepped out, entering the area that was illuminated by the Emperor’s Eye. Instantly, the Emperor’s Eye began to glow with a boundless radiance, as terrifying beams of light blasted into Jun Mengchen.
The light that was materialized from countless runes, formed an extremely destructive attack, slamming right into Jun Mengchen. The radiance from the Emperor’s Eye washed over him, but he stood there unmoving under the heavy pressure, like he was the king of everything in the world.
The Kui Ox roared as he stepped out as well. Fearsome currents of lightning crackled protectively around him, he then reverted into his true form and became even more terrifying.
A moment later, the radiance from the Emperor’s Eye intensified, the sky above it changed color, becoming a world of stars. From the heavens, gigantic meteors started raining down with imperious force, capable of crushing anything.
The Kui Ox blasted the meteors apart with brute strength, reinforced by the power of lightning and thunder. Behind Jun Mengchen, a world diagram appeared and streams of silver spears shot out, shattering the meteors that fell in his surroundings.
“The radiance from the Emperor’s Eye will keep evolving, transforming into a stronger area of effect attack every time.” The crowd mused.
Qin Wentian felt some shock in his heart when he saw Nanfeng Yunxi and Jun Mengchen. In addition, both of them had already entered the immortal king realm. This little brat Jun Mengchen, his strength had evidently increased by a huge margin. He must have worked hard during these years.
“BOOM!” The Kui Ox stepped out, issuing a roar at Jun Mengchen. The volume of the roar shook the heavens and caused thunder bolts to form. The already chaotic area became even more chaotic as thunder fell from the sky, blasting into Jun Mengchen mercilessly.
“The abilities of some of these greater demons were truly powerful. The might of a single roar actually can be so tyrannical.” The spectators mused silently.
Jun Mengchen similarly let out a thunderous roar. In an instant, countless silver spears erupted from the diagram, blotting out the sky, shattering the lightning domain into pieces. The diagram then flew out, hovering in the air as it transformed into a law domain that engulfed everything. The crowd felt like they were under an illusion, and the Kui Ox seemed to have been brought into a world where Jun Mengchen was the absolute king.
Many of the powerful immortal kings here all froze when they saw this. Wasn’t this the strength of that legendary physique...?
“KILL!” Jun Mengchen howled. From the diagram, the silver spears continued shooting out towards the Kui Ox. The Kui Ox roared, summoning bolts of thunder to blast the spears, but the spears were simply too many in number. They launched forth in endless streams, containing indomitable force. The Kui Ox struggled and used all sorts of methods to attack, wanting to leave this domain. However, the entire platform was already covered, there was simply no way for him to flee. The sounds of piercing then rang out continuously as his body was pierced through by the endless spears, until he finally died.
“I’ll keep the corpse of this ox. In the future, when there’s a chance to, I’ll barbeque it and eat it, this should be highly nutritious.” Jun Mengchen coldly smiled. The diagram disappeared and the body of the ox vanished with it.
The eyes of many experts gleamed with sharpness. As expected of the coming of a new era, even a person with such a shocking physique appeared.
“Impudent!” That demonic young man sitting on the floating throne icily spat.
“You are the impudent one. What? You can’t afford to lose? Are you not going to release Shengge?” Jun Mengcheng coldly spoke.
“Haha, you demons are simply too weak. The trial of the Emperor’s Eye just began yet the person you sent out was so easily killed off.” An immortal king from a peak power laughed.
“You guys better obediently hand Nanfeng Shengge over. The Southern Phoenix Clan isn’t a power you demons can afford to antagonize.” An expert from the Ying Clan laughed.
“Oh?” That demonic young man grinned evilly. He grabbed Nanfeng Shengge and sneered, “Since we’ve lost, I will naturally honor my promise.”
As he spoke, he tossed Nanfeng Shengge out and instantly stabbed a finger forth, slamming into her back. Nanfeng Shengge slumped forward, coughing out fresh blood from the impact as her aura weakened severely.
“Shengge!” Nanfeng Yunxi called out, her expression changed drastically as she flew forward, catching Nanfeng Shengge. She then took out a medical pill and fed it into her mouth before sending in streams of energy to protect Nanfeng Shengge’s heart.
“Try to circulate your immortal energy.”
Nanfeng Shengge nodded, the two of them were immersed in phoenix flames, resembling a phoenix undergoing rebirth through nirvana. The other experts from the Southern Phoenix Clan coldly stared at that demonic young man as well as that expert from the Ying Clan who spoke. That Ying Clan’s expert was clearly trying to provoke the demons, he was simply extremely despicable.
“Shameless.” Jun Mengchen was brimming with anger.
“I only agreed to release her and I’ve kept my promise.” That demonic young man icily spoke. “Do you dare to continue?”
“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Jun Mengchen coldly spoke.
“Fine then.” The eyes of the demonic young man flashed with coldness. As for those other humans in the crowd, they all had the feeling like they were watching a drama unfolding. An expert from the Ying Clan then spoke out, “Wow, a supreme genius from humanity, he will definitely be able to slay all demons and do us proud.”
“Mhm, this person’s talent isn’t bad, he can be the representative of us humans and continue to slay the demons.” A peak-stage immortal king from the Senluo Immortal Empire added fuel to fire.
“Not wanting a cease-fire after your loss and planning to continue? Since you guys want to play, we will play with you.” A voice rang out. After that, several experts appeared. Qin Wentian glanced at the person in the lead and he realized that he actually knew this man. This person was none other than Tuoba Saintsky, an extremely powerful immortal king with extraordinary strength who led one of the armies of the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect against the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect during the war in the past.
Jun Mengchen actually came here with a group of experts from the Heavenly Talisman Realm.
“Count me in.” Qin Wentian stepped out.
Tuoba Saintsky, Jun Mengchen and the others all glanced at Qin Wentian as their eyes flashed. They could sense that he was also a disciple from the Heavenly Talisman Realm but they had never met Qin Wentian before. Naturally, given how vast the Heavenly Talisman Realm is, it’s very normal that they wouldn’t have met everyone before. It was already enough knowing that they are from the same sect.
Tuoba Saintsky glanced at Qin Wentian as he nodded. “Sure, how do we address you?”
“Saber-Sword Immortal King.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. There was a sword and a saber strapped behind his back. This title was pretty appropriate.
“Not bad, everyone is a genius of our immortal realms. We might as well use this chance to diminish the arrogance of the demonic races.” On one of the thrones, an expert from the Ying Clan laughed, speaking as though he was a lofty individual that was directing everything.
Qin Wentian inclined his head, staring at the people of the Ying Clan. He then coldly spoke, “Get lost from there, you guys have no qualifications to sit there.”
