Chapter 465
465 Arrival of a Heavenly Immortal
In the observation tower in North Mountain City.
The observation tower was the tallest building in the city. Upon reaching the top of the tower, one could see the huge mountain range that divided the mountainous region. Usually, its function was to monitor the situation in the mountain range.
However, at this moment, the soldiers from the north were no longer at the top of the tower. In their place was a man and a woman. Both of them were from the immortal factions.
“Sword Immortal Cang Qing is indeed the strongest swordsman in our sect.”
“It seems that the battle between immortal techniques and divine powers is about to be decided. The gods are inferior to the immortals.”
As the two of them chatted, it looked like the Fire Scales Elder was being suppressed by Sword Immortal Cang Qing.
The Fire Scales Ancestor turned into a fire dragon and dodged the attacks in the air. However, he was still being threatened by a three-foot-long sword. Even if he unleashed a set of fire-type divine powers, he could not destroy the sword.
Of course, if Sword Immortal Cang Qing wanted to kill the Fire Scales Elder, it would not be possible in a short period of time. He had to cause more damage to the Fire Scale Elder’s body.
In other words, he had to continue to put more burden on his opponent’s divine world. In the end, the divine would was the true foundation of the gods.
Elsewhere in the city, seeing that Sword Immortal Cang Qing had suppressed the Fire Scales Elder, almost everyone felt their bodies lighten. Most of the pressure brought about by the 100,000 gods on the black cloud disappeared.
“So what if there are 100,000 gods? If they don’t leave now, the Sword Immortal will destroy you with one strike.”
“It’s settled, it’s settled. It seems that this world that produces spirit stones can no longer withstand the movements of our immortal sect. In the future, there will be another banquet to split the spoils of war.”
Spirit stones and source ores were different names from the two galaxies, but they were essentially referring to the same thing.
The current situation looked good for the immortal factions. The immortal factions were about to defeat the first wave of the local resistance. In the long history of the immortal factions, this type of resistance could usually be resolved by the third time.
After that, as long as the expansion of the immortal faction’s influence was not interrupted, the overall situation would continue to lean towards the immortal factions, and they would win one war after another.
In fact, it might even become easier and easier. The confidence of the local resistance would be completely destroyed, and the troops would be defeated easily.
Time passed by slowly.
The fire dragon in the air began to roar in pain from time to time. Sword Immortal Cang Qing’s gaze was cold, but the fighting spirit in his body became stronger and stronger.
In the battle between the immortal techniques and divine powers, the balance was greatly skewed, and everything was gradually devoured by the sword domain.
At this moment, everyone could clearly see that the Fire Scales Elder was about to lose. If he continued to fight, his life might be in danger.
On the ground, people from the immortal factions began to walk to the edge of the formation protecting the city. They were preparing to leave the city and surround the 100,000 gods on the black cloud once they received the order.
That’s right. In the eyes of many people, it was time for them to think about how to retreat.
Even if the group was formed by a small portion of gods in the jade star realm and the rest were gods at the star condensation realm, they were not a match for Sword Immortal Cang Qing, who was a heavenly immortal.
In terms of cultivation level, especially at the level of the immortals, the difference in cultivation level was insurmountable. Even in a vast galaxy, only a few geniuses with unprecedented levels of talent could achieve someone at a higher level.
It was obvious that at the level of the star evolution realm, the Fire Scales elder had already fallen out of the standard of a genius. He had not fallen to a mediocre level, but he was still quite far from the top.
...
In front of the huge rock that acted as the space-travel portal, the three old immortals looked at each other and nodded.
After reaching a silent agreement, the three of them joined forces and injected the immortal power in their bodies into the huge rock. Immortal power was a type of power that one could use after their essence spirit was entrusted to the void. It was on the same level as divine power.
Three strange lights, red, orange, and yellow, connected the huge rock and the three old immortals.
The huge rock immediately shook. Accompanied by rumbling waves, it turned into a stream of white light that tore through the void and opened up a space-travel passage across the galaxy.
Gao Shuai watched all of this happen and said, “The three old immortals will make use of the momentum of Sword Immortal Cang Qing’s victory over the Fire Scales Elder to launch a counterattack on the large cities closest to North Mountain City.”
“Therefore, from the moment the immortal sects arrive at North Mountain City, it will be the moment when the spies arranged by the Infinite Island join forces to break through the defense system of North Mountain City.”
As he spoke, the intense fluctuations gradually calmed down.
A space-travel portal that emitted many streams of light appeared in front of them.
“Woof, woof!”
The black dog barked twice to remind Gao Shuai.
If it was really as Gao Shuai had said, and the center of the battlefield was about to move from outside North Mountain City to the location of the space teleportation portal, it would not just be a battle between one or two heavenly immortals and the gods at the star evolution realm.
The black dog was anxious. A battle at that level was something that a dog at the level of the human immortal realm did not dare to get involved in.
It was just like how Sword Immortal Cang Qing could kill a god at the star condensation realm with just a single gaze. It was too dangerous to continue staying here.
Gao Shuai seemed not to have heard it. He rolled his eyes and continued, “The spatial item we obtained from the treasure vault of the city ruler can protect us from any probes.”
Chen Yiming could tell what Gao Shuai was thinking at a glance. He sighed and said, “I’ve been cultivating diligently for the past year based on the books obtained from the treasure vault of the city ruler.”
“I happen to have made some progress with a divine power called the Hidden Universe. If you guys encounter any danger later, I won’t use my spatial ability to escape alone. I can bring you guys along.”
The black dog was delighted to hear this.
It was said that only a few heavenly immortals in the immortal factions had mastered similar immortal techniques.
If it had known that Chen Yiming was so powerful, it would have been willing to be a loyal pet to him. This was what the black dog was acting like now.
Thinking back, the black dog, which could enter and exit the important areas of the immortal factions at will, did not dare to take the spirit stones from the warehouse. It was afraid that after taking them, it would not have the ability to withstand the subsequent investigation by the immortal factions.
Otherwise, it would not have bothered to trick the villagers into offering the source ores in exchange for its protection.
When Gao Shuai heard this, his face twitched.
He had already raised his expectations for Chen Yiming’s talent.
However, even among the gods at the jade star realm who had a divine world in the top three grades, he had never heard of anyone who had started to cultivate divine powers after breaking through for a year or so.
It had to be known that divine powers were the signature technique of gods in the star evolution realm. They were the main reason for the difference in strength between them and those in the jade star realm.
Thinking of this, Gao Shuai felt as if his butt was on fire. He started to panic.
He was already here, but Chen Yiming didn’t actually need his help. If they used the spatial item to take away the huge rock, they had to take advantage of the chaos to steal it away from the immortal factions in North Mountain City.
“Black Dog, let’s go.”
Gao Shuai urged the black dog.
“Why should we leave?”
The black dog did not want to leave. In its opinion, instead of following Gao Shuai, it was better to follow the other person in front of it who had a stronger combat strength and was at the level of a heavenly immortal.
Gao Shuai relied on his special prophecy ability. What if it failed? The black dog at the human immortal realm and a weak human at the fusion realm could not even put up a struggle if they were caught.
The black dog did not want to leave. It wanted to cozy up to the strongest person.
Seeing this, Chen Yiming coughed and reminded it, “I might not be able to be free to actually help you guys. After all, if there is really a fight, the situation will change quickly.”
With that, he deliberately glanced at the battlefield where Sword Immortal Cang Qing and the Fire Scales Elder were fighting.
The meaning was obvious. You, the black dog, are also a weakling. Think about it, how did Sword Immortal Cang Qing instantly kill a god at the star condensation realm with just his gaze?
There was no difference between a human immortal and a god at the star condensation realm. They were both people that could be destroyed at will. It had to weigh its own strength.
Soon, the black dog and Gao Shuai left together without any hesitation.
...
The space-travel portal emitted a mysterious light.
Even if it was teleportation, they could not instantly cross a distance of one or two galaxies. It would take a short period of time.
Before the new forces from the immortal factions truly arrived, the three old immortals were already discussing the direction of their counterattack and the subsequent plans for expansion.
“It’s said that there’s a mysterious secret realm near Left Mist City. I suspect that one of the materials needed to refine the Divine Illusion Pill lies in the depths.”
“In front of North Mountain City, this mountain range that looks like a dragon might be hiding a shocking secret. The people of the abandoned world call it the backbone of the world.”
“I think after mobilizing many immortal factions to launch a counterattack, we can send more people to dig through the region. There might be many treasures there.”
“After those factions from the source ore shops got us to come here, their attitude became too perfunctory. Why don’t we take this opportunity to teach them a lesson? Otherwise, they will think that the immortal factions are easy to make use of.”
“That makes sense. In any case, after the immortal factions arrive in the abandoned world, there’s no longer a need for the source ore shops. It’s said that they have the intention to hide away from the world. It’s only right for them to lend some source ores to the immortal sects.”
Everything was progressing just as they expected. After the immortal factions felt that they could truly take root and stabilize themselves, they were already preparing to turn into evil dragons and launch a counterattack before they started an all-out war with the strongest factions in the south mountain range.
Chen Yiming heard everything clearly from the gap in the formation array.
However, one could not blame the immortal factions for their actions. The factions from the source ore shops had been afraid before the battle. If they could not completely escape from the world and were found hiding in their headquarters, the two evil dragons from the immortal factions and the Infinite Island Group might even let go of their fight and devour the source ore shops first before fighting for control of the south mountain range.
...
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, a boundless immortal light shot out from the space-travel portal.
Immediately after, three dragon roars rang out, and the world shook. The 100,000 gods on the black cloud looked over at the same time. Sword Immortal Cang Qing’s aura became even stronger, and he forced the Fire Scales Elder to retreat step by step.
In the next moment, a three-headed dragon pulled a chariot out of the space teleportation portal. On it sat a man in armor.
“Tong Tian, you’ve already stolen the limelight,”
one of the three old immortals said unhappily. However, they still had to keep the space teleportation portal open because the army from the immortal factions was about to arrive.
“Hehe!”
The man in the dragon chariot smiled and did not say anything.
After stopping at the entrance of the space-travel portal for a while, the chariot pulled by the dragon moved again and drove straight into an area above the battlefield outside North Mountain City.
The three-headed dragon roared again, its powerful aura shook the surroundings. This three-headed dragon was at the level of an earth immortal, which was equivalent to the gods of the jade star realm in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. However, it was only used to pull the chariot.
The army of 100,000 gods on the black cloud immediately fell into chaos.
The immortal factions had brought strong reinforcements over again, but on the side of the factions from the Infinite Island Group, only the Fire Scales Elder was holding them back. No other god at the star evolution realm had appeared.
On the other hand, in North Mountain City, some people from the immortal factions were so excited that they tightened their grip on their swords. The momentum of the immortal factions had already been established, and the Infinite Island Group would definitely be chased out and killed by the immortal factions.
This mentality was very normal. If the factions in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy joined forces to fight against the outsiders, it might still be very difficult for the immortal factions to fight against them. After all, they could not send all their forces over to this world.
However, the Infinite Island Group was only one of the overlord factions at the inter-galactic level and was far from being able to represent the entire Hidden Dragon Galaxy. This way, the immortal factions had never been afraid from the start. Otherwise, they would not have dared to start a war after only occupying one city.
Soon, there was a new commotion from the space-travel portal.
A five-colored immortal light burst out, and the scene of fairies playing music appeared.
Among them, every fairy had an extremely perfect figure, causing countless people from both sides to feel excited.
A graceful lady was a good match for a gentleman, and the fairies were no exception. Even the female gods were a little jealous of their figures.
Immediately after, a woman strolled out of the space-travel portal.
The woman was surrounded by a five-colored immortal light, and there was a diamond-shaped mark between her eyebrows. In addition, there was a pair of jade horns on her head that looked like dragon horns. They were very short.
At the same time, because the jade horns were hidden in her hair, they gave off a strange sense of beauty.
Other than that, she looked 99% similar to a human. She had a tall and graceful figure and a gentle appearance, but her eyes emitted a sharpness that was different from her appearance.
At this moment, not only were countless people unable to look away, but even Sword Immortal Cang Qing could not help but glance at her.
Of course, he knew which heavenly immortal it was, but he still did it. His eyes even revealed a gentle glint for a moment, giving the Fire Scales Elder a chance to catch his breath.
“Welcome, Dragon Fairy.”
The attitude of the three old immortals towards the female immortal was naturally not the same as their attitude towards the previous person who had arrived.
Although they looked calm on the surface, they all had smiles on their faces. If not for the fact that they still needed to keep the space teleportation portal open, they might have taken a break.
The woman swept her gaze across the battlefield and took a step forward. She was at the same height as the man in the chariot.
At the same time, the scene of the fairies playing music in the sky faded away and everything returned to normal.
“Is the mole arranged by the Infinite Island Group the man in the dragon carriage or this woman with jade horns?”
Chen Yiming deliberately avoided her gaze. His intuition told him that the diamond-shaped mark between the woman’s eyebrows was hiding a strong power.
If he looked over like the others, even if there was an array formation between them, he would still be noticed. At such a critical moment, he could not take such a risk.
They did not have to wait long for the next person to arrive.
Another heavenly immortal was preparing to step out of the space teleportation portal.
“Knock knock knock...”
The sound echoed throughout the area.
When the people from the factions inside and outside the city heard this, their fighting spirit inexplicably calmed down...
“There’s something strange about this sound!”
The 100,000 gods from the factions of the Infinite Island Group felt that something was amiss.
There was a strange power hidden in the sound that made them feel defeated. At this moment, their wills wavered and they could not control their emotions.
