ETERNAL MARTIAL EMPEROR, VOLUME 8 - Season 22 Episode 36

“You flatter me,”

Heaven Abyss was expressionless and fearless. “Exalted Immortal, before you descended, I’ve already decided to recruit this person. If I give up just because of a single sentence from you, others will think that Mountain Sea Immortal Sect is afraid of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom. That will be bad for our sect’s reputation.”

Although Heaven Abyss rarely spoke, he was extremely smart.

He knew that given his status and cultivation realm, he could not fight against Perfected Immortal Jing Yue.

Therefore, he referred to his backing, Mountain Sea Immortal Sect!

Heaven Abyss’s words were akin to hiding needles in cotton wool!

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s expression darkened.

If Heavenly Abyss truly wanted to go against him head-on, there was nothing he could do.

There was no way he could kill Heaven Abyss in front of everyone.

Heaven Abyss was not a nobody. If he attacked rashly and bullied the young, he would definitely offend Mountain Sea Immortal Sect.

At that time, Mountain Sea Immortal Sect might even send Perfected Immortal experts to look for him!

One of the four great fairies, the Chess Immortal, was in the Mountain Sea Immortal Sect.

The Chess Immortal had a domineering personality and loved to fight.

Although the four great fairies had not fought openly, there were long rumors that the Chess Immortal was the strongest among the four of them!

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue narrowed his eyes slightly with a dark expression, seemingly plotting something.

Instantly, the entire Coiling Dragon Mountain Range turned extremely quiet.

The atmosphere was a little stifling.

Suddenly, Su Zimo felt a strong sense of danger, as though he was targeted by some terrifying figure and could face a calamity at any moment!

“This is bad!”

Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat.

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was wary of the Mountain Sea Immortal Sect and did not dare to attack Heaven Abyss.

However, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue could ignore others and attack him!

Mountain Sea Immortal Sect would cause trouble for Perfected Immortal Jing Yue if Heaven Abyss was suppressed.

However, Su Zimo had yet to join the Mountain Sea Immortal Sect. Even if Perfected Immortal Jing Yue killed him in public, Mountain Sea Immortal Sect would not have any conflict with Perfected Immortal Jing Yue because of him, a Grade 6 Earth Immortal who had ascended from the lower worlds.

Within the carriage.

The girl whispered, “Princess, Su Zimo’s luck is not bad. Thankfully, Heavenly Abyss has the guts to stand out and withstand the pressure of Perfected Immortal Jing Yue. Otherwise, he would be in trouble.”

“Even if Heaven Abyss backs off, Yang Ruoxu will stand out,”

The plain-robed woman shook her head gently. “Yang Ruoxu can be considered as a rising star of Heaven and Earth Academy. Although he’s not the number one Heaven Immortal of the academy, he’s upright and cultivated the Righteousness Sutra. He came from a lowly background and it’s truly not easy for him to reach this point.”

Pausing for a moment, she continued, “However, with the descent of a Perfected Immortal, Heaven Abyss and the other three are no longer able to control the situation.”

“Fufufu… HAHAHAHAHA!”

Right then, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue who was in midair suddenly laughed. His voice grew louder and many cultivators felt their ears buzz with a sharp pain.

The laughter gradually stopped and Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said coldly, “Heavenly Abyss, it’s fine if you don’t give me face.”

He changed the topic and looked at Su Zimo who was not far away, saying slowly, “However, I’m going to suppress that lad in public today. Who can stop me?!”

The expressions of Heaven Abyss, Yang Ruoxu and the others changed.

As Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had said, if he were to attack forcefully, no one would be able to stop him here!

The difference between a Perfected Immortal and a Heaven Immortal was way too great.

Furthermore, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue was an expert among Perfected Immortals.

There were nine levels to the Black, Earth and Heaven Essence realms.

However, after the three essences converged into the Perfected One realm, there were only four levels.

Every single level was a huge gap.

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had at least cultivated to Level 3 of the Perfected One realm.

Even if the previous number one of the Heaven Ranking was gathered, he would not be able to defend against Perfected Immortal Jing Yue, let alone Heaven Abyss and the other three!

“Jing Yue, hurry and capture Su Zimo!” Prince Yuan Zuo was delighted and invigorated.

“Your Highness, please calm down. Since I’ve already decided to attack, this lad won’t be able to escape!”

The moment he said that, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue waved his robes and a gigantic dark golden palm extended from his wide and pitch-black sleeves, enveloping Su Zimo.

The supreme divine power, Star Plucking Hand!

When released by a Perfected Immortal, the same supreme divine power created a completely different scene and might.

The gigantic hand covered the skies and was filled with a dark golden glow. It fiddled with the galaxy as though it had come from the ancient era and wanted to suppress the world and punish all living beings!

Against the might of that gigantic hand, it was already rare for anyone to not kneel on the ground, let alone resist.

Heaven Abyss had an indignant expression as he growled and released a supreme divine power.

At the same time, Yang Ruoxu at the side attacked once more.

The two Heaven Immortals resisted the might of Perfected Immortal Jing Yue and wanted to block the gigantic hand in midair.

However, their supreme divine powers dissipated when they collided with Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s Star Plucking Hand.

It was like a moth flying into a flame without causing any ripples.

The difference was too great!

As Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had said, no one could stop him if he attacked!

“How shameless to bully the weak!”

Suddenly, a voice sounded from the battlefield.

Right on the heels of that, a divine light suddenly descended and no one could see how or where it came from.

It was completely imperceivable!

However, it appeared in midair and slashed down at the Star Plucking Hand that shone with starlight.

Shing!

The divine light streaked across the Star Plucking Hand and sliced the gigantic hand into two with an ear-piercing sound!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Right in front of many cultivators, the hand that was sliced into two collapsed and shattered rapidly!

After a momentary silence, the entire Coiling Dragon Mountain Range was in an uproar!

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s attack was resolved by someone!

Apart from Perfected Immortal Jing Yue, there were other Perfected Immortal experts here!

“Who is there!”

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s heart skipped a beat as he surveyed his surroundings and asked loudly with a sharp gaze.

Nobody replied.

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had a grim expression.

It was normal for this person to be able to neutralize his supreme divine power.

However, he could not even tell the origin of the divine light earlier on or sense the location of this person—that was a little terrifying.

This meant that there was a high chance this person was much stronger than him!

Who could this person be?

Why would this person appear in Coiling Dragon Mountain Range?

Why did this person want to save Su Zimo?

Why did this person not appear after attacking?

Doubts flashed through Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s mind in the blink of an eye.

The person’s voice earlier on was erratic. Not only could he not identify the voice, he could not even tell if it was a man or woman.

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue’s reaction surprised many cultivators present.

A Perfected Immortal attacked earlier on but Perfected Immortal Jing Yue could not find where the person was!

Su Zimo was puzzled as well after escaping this calamity.

Even he could not imagine that any Perfected Immortal in the Heavenly World would help him.

The only Perfected Immortal he knew was Feng Ziyi’s master, Burial Night.

However, this person’s style was way too different from Burial Night.

If it was Burial Night, he would have launched an assassination attempt on Perfected Immortal Jing Yue directly. Why would he say something like ‘How shameless to bully the weak’?
