Chapter 675: Chapter 674: Start the special mission “Master of the Immortal World” below
“Who could’ve imagined that this is Jiuzhou, a world renowned in the Ten Thousand Realms.” After twenty days of exploring, Qian and his team had gained a thorough understanding of Jiuzhou.
The strength of Jiuzhou left them quietly frightened.
“The venerable Old Buddha of Buddhism, who should have already passed away due to his age, surprisingly reincarnated after Nirvana, reinvented himself after breaking through to the late stage of the Earth Immortal. Especially adept at the Dao of Space, and with the Buddhist artifact, the Brahma Tower, he might even be able to fight toe-to-toe with the Ancestor Ba.”
“The long-lived Immortal Weng, a legitimate disciple of the Dao, who is rumored to be the personal disciple of the Dao Ancestor himself. He possesses the first Immortal Artifact of Jiuzhou, the Yin Yang Heaven Seal, and is rarely matched amongst Earth Immortals.”
“Jiang Li, also known as the Human Emperor, reached the Mahayana Realm, he slaughters Earth Immortals as if they were insignificant.”
“Also, those Immortal Artifacts, were somewhat infamous even before the Heavenly Staircase to Immortality disappeared.”
“Despite being isolated from the Immortal World for 9,000 years, Jiuzhou still has such formidable forces, truly terrifying.”
Afterwards, Qian showed a smile: “But their demise is inevitable. They have actually generated a land vein similar to the embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao, the Immortal Realm won’t let them go.”
“Once Jiuzhou is extinguished and consumed by the Eight Barrens, we will undoubtedly become the strongest world in the Ten Thousand Realms, beneath the Immortal Realm.”
“Moreover, we the Eight Barrens can’t handle the strength of Jiuzhou, so why not report to the Immortal World?”
Ka-cha──
A gap broke open in the boundary of Jiuzhou, and a massive tiger head protruded. Its eyes were full, and its Immortal Power was like the tide, washing over the entire world of Jiuzhou.
“It’s… it’s Lu Wu in person!” Qian and the others were overjoyed. The Golden Immortal had personally come to Jiuzhou, which was enough to show the importance of Jiuzhou, they were going to make a significant contribution.
“I see, Jiuzhou does have some good points. Its protective boundary array is powered merely by Spiritual Energy and yet it can produce such an effect. Indeed, quite ingenious.”
“However, against a Golden Immortal, this protective array will offer nothing but an ephemeral resistance.” Lu Wu squeezed through the gap, and into the world of Jiuzhou.
“”Hmm, the opening is too small.” The opening made by Lu Wu was not big enough, and only the front half of his body could enter. He forcefully squeezed into Jiuzhou, causing cracks to appear in the boundary!
Lu Wu descended on the Jiuzhou world in his true form. His tiger body was as majestic as a mountain, crushing space, and his nine tails manifested its divine powers, reminiscent of the world’s creation.
Lu Wu scanned the Jiuzhou continent with his Divine Sense, mainly focusing on the land veins beneath the Imperial Palace. A pleased smile spread across his face: “Indeed there are land veins, I wonder if Minghuo could still stand after this.”
Immediately after playing chess with the Immortal Emperor, Lu Wu received the report from the Eight Barrens. Elated, he realized that this was a golden opportunity to shake the reign of Minghuo.
“What is this, an extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon!” The people of Jiuzhou were shocked. They had never seen a being outside the Heavenly Demons forcibly tearing apart the boundary to arrive in Jiuzhou.
“The immortal beast Lu Wu, a powerful general under the Immortal Emperor!” The Old Buddha muttered a phrase of Buddha scripture, his expression serious.
Ever since he found out about his previous encounter with Du Ye in the Underworld, he knew that there was a significant issue with the Immortal Realm. However, he couldn’t tell Jiang Li about this specifically due to the Six Harmonies Sitting Spell cast by Du Ye.
Lu Wu’s arrival implied a significant disaster for Jiuzhou.
“So this is a Golden Immortal.” Jiang Li leisurely appeared, tearing through the void, crossing countless light years, making his way from the Eight Barrens to Jiuzhou.
“Doesn’t feel much stronger than Big Brother Chu Di.” Jiang Li murmured. He has never been to the Underworld, nor has he had experience with the high-level combat power of the Immortal World.”
During a system mission, he obtained a recipe for a pill that could allow the soul to leave the body. Once the pill was made, it could even kill a Transcendence Tribulation Stage.
The rewards from the system must be useful. This was the experience he gained from conducting system missions over the years. He had not used the pill after its manufacture, and had always been waiting for the right opportunity.
Sure enough, in the subsequent mission of finding the Heavenly Staircase to Immortality, his enemy was a Transcendence Tribulation Stage. He was not powerful enough to defeat his enemy at the time, so he used the poison pill to kill the Transcendence Tribulation Stage and successfully completed the mission.
“Too weak.” Jiang Li casually shook his head, not considering Lu Wu a worthy opponent.
“A mortal from the Lower Realms, you have quite some nerve!”
Jiang Li remained silent, drawing an Immortal Sword, exuding a presence akin to the Supreme Swordsman, inviolable and commanding.
Beneath him, Sword Emperor watched Jiang Li with a sense of pride. There was nothing more he could teach his disciple, whose sword Dao had already surpassed his own.
Jiang Li sharply declared the name of his swordsmanship, taking a step forward, holding the sword alone, and swinging a strike that surpassed the level of a Golden Immortal!
“Great Sun Tathagata Sword Method.”
The Immortal Sword was dazzling, like the Great Sun Tathagata, breaking through the earth and the sky, illuminating the entire world of Jiuzhou, leaving an unforgettable impression on all Swordsman Monks.
“This is the pinnacle of Sword Dao.” The Sword Emperor murmured. He could not imagine a brilliance that surpassed this strike.
“The Great Sun Tathagata Sword Method, an unparalleled sword method created by the Buddha. It’s a pity that I could only comprehend the first seven layers,” the Sword Emperor held the Great Sun Tathagata Sword Method that Jiang Li had respected him. He sighed regretfully, it seemed that he was destined to miss the title of “the strongest in Sword Dao”.
No disciple’s skill in Sword Dao has ever surpassed his over myriad of years. His proficiency in all aspects of cultivation were exceptional, requiring no guidance and self-taught. Any genius would pale in comparison to him, sinking into insignificance amongst the masses.
When he took over the body of this disciple, and watched him shine in all areas, he never once saw him seriously learn any skills, which was incomprehensible.
Perhaps this is what it means to be born with knowledge.
Witnessing this unparalleled sword strike, Lu Wu seemed to see the Buddha holding the Wisdom Sword, his face instantly turning pale.
“Your Highness…save…”
He pulled out the communication talisman to beg the Immortal Emperor for help. The radiant sword Qi descended, resolutely majestic, shattering him to his very core. He only had time to utter half a sentence before the sword strike annihilated him completely.
The talisman in the Immortal Emperor’s hand automatically ignited into ashes. This talisman was not only a communication talisman, it was also Lu Wu’s life talisman.
The self-combustion of the life talisman meant that Lu Wu was dead, and there was no trace of him in the mortal realm or in the Underworld.
“How audacious!”
To kill his subordinate in front of him was nothing short of a blatant disregard for his face.
However, the Immortal Emperor was also prudent. The fact that Jiang Li could annihilate a Golden Immortal with one sword meant that Jiang Li was possibly a Primordial Supreme Immortal.
The Immortal Emperor manifested over Jiuzhou, surveyed his surroundings, and revealed a cold smile: “So, this is the Jiuzhou world.”
The Immortal Emperor retracted his manifestation, assembled the immortals, and went on an expedition to assault Jiuzhou.
The Immortal Emperor stood on the stage of appointment, leading the charge.
“Lower Realm Jiuzhou, disregarding the Immortal Realm, killing Immortal Realm envoys, attempts of rebellion, Jiuzhou must be wiped out!”
Since they’re both Primordial Supreme Immortals, the Immortal Emperor certainly wouldn’t go alone. Backed by a group of Immortals, he was at his strongest.
The Immortal Emperor threw out a Heavenly Staircase to Immortality and ordered: “Include Jiuzhou.”
Bits and pieces of the Heavenly Staircase to Immortality were collected by the Immortal World, and some Heavenly Staircases to Immortality were pieced together.
…
Jiang Li saw a golden staircase extending from the Endless Void to Jiuzhou.
At the same time, the system prompt sounded.
[Congratulations to the host on successfully ascending through the Heavenly Staircase to Immortality, the special mission ‘Master of the Immortal World’ will be initiated.]
Jiang Li was forcibly teleported to the Immortal World, his expression bewildered.
Seeing Jiang Li voluntarily coming to the Immortal World, the Immortal Emperor felt that this was an explicit provocation and was immediately furious.
“How dare you!”
“Take this spear!”
