At The Beginning, I Counted The Immortal To Death

Long Bufan never expected that he would die so easily.

But no matter what.

Apart from the slight anger from the Immortal World towards his death.

The cultivators from the other four realms didn't pay much attention.

Most of their attention was focused on Emperor Zhu.

Especially the Monster Cultivators from the Divine Realm, they laughed recklessly.

Continuously cheering for Emperor Zhu.

The gloom caused by Jiang Bai's swift killing of Xun Feng was completely swept away.

Jiang Bai frowned as he looked at Emperor Zhu standing proudly on the stage, somewhat surprised by his strength.

It seemed that even Third Lord might not be his opponent.

The purity of his bloodline seemed to be no less than that of Third Lord's divine beast bloodline.

But there was nothing they could do about it.

Because of Jiang Bai's presence, their cultivation levels were bound together.

They were both waiting for Jiang Bai to break through, so they could improve their strength together.

Since leaving Ascending Immortal City, Third Lord rarely practiced his techniques proactively.

The word "lazy" had already been engraved in his bones.

The cultivators from the Immortal World were furious when they looked at Emperor Zhu.

His words, "Kill one Immortal World cultivator upon seeing one," completely enraged all the Immortal World cultivators.

They all clamored, demanding that Jiang Bai and the others teach him a lesson when they encountered him.

But no matter what.

Emperor Zhu's strength left a deep impression on everyone.

He even killed Long Bufan effortlessly without revealing his true form.

No one knew what kind of Monster Cultivator he was.

Qin Shu asked in confusion, "This person seems different from other Monster Cultivators. He doesn't have any characteristics of a Monster Cultivator and is almost indistinguishable from our human race!"

"There are only two possibilities in this situation. One is that he has similar characteristics to the human race, like the previous Shanyu Army!"

"The other possibility is that he is a genius from a highly pure-blooded divine beast... or a fierce beast!"

Yun Shen explained.

"This person should be a genius from a highly respected fierce beast clan in the Divine Realm!"

Qin Shu asked in doubt, "How can you be sure that he is a fierce beast and not a divine beast?"

Yun Shen pursed his lips and said, "Because there are no divine beasts left in the Divine Realm!"

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this and immediately asked, "What happened? How can there be no divine beasts in the Divine Realm?"

Yun Shen took a deep breath and said, "I heard from my senior brothers that the fierce beasts in the Divine Realm have almost slaughtered all the divine beasts in the Divine Realm!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless with shock.

"The divine beasts... have been slaughtered?"

"How is that possible? Aren't divine beasts extremely powerful? Why haven't I heard my family mention it?" Qin Shu wondered.

"The Five Realms haven't had a war for a long time, so this news hasn't spread due to the interference of the Divine Realm. But it should be true!"

Yun Shen looked at the Divine Realm side with a calm expression.

Qin Shu still found it hard to believe.

But Jiang Bai knew.

This was probably true.

He recalled the information he heard when he encountered the projection of Taotie in the War God Temple years ago.

It was indeed possible that there were no divine beasts left in the Divine Realm!

He glanced at Third Lord.

The situation with the other divine beasts was unclear, but it was possible that only Third Lord was left from the Golden Crow clan in the Divine Realm.

Unfortunately, Third Lord didn't belong to the Golden Crow clan of the Divine Realm, but was a gift from the system!

Therefore, there was no divine beast spared in the Divine Realm.

But this had nothing to do with Jiang Bai. He only needed to protect Third Lord.

This matter was far beyond his involvement.

As for the secrets inside, he could find an opportunity to calculate and explore.

After Emperor Zhu in the Divine Realm, several cultivators from other realms were chosen and fought a few battles.

But no one appeared who could compete with Emperor Zhu.

Now, the two recognized strongest individuals were Jiang Bai and Emperor Zhu.

Coupled with the enmity between the two camps, the demand for a battle between the two was high.

But unfortunately, it wasn't up to them to decide who would fight whom.

Everything is based on the name displayed on the scroll.

After a few relatively uneventful battles, Immortal World was chosen again.

This time, the chosen one was Ji Xuan Kong!

His opponent was a genius from the Demon World.

This person had prominent features of the Demon Race.

The curved horns on his head were shiny and even had a hint of metallic luster.

His name was Ye Qing.

Like all members of the Demon Race, this person was very tall.

But he didn't have the usual arrogance of the Demon Race, instead appearing quite easygoing.

"Ji Xuan Kong, I've heard of you," Ye Qing said with a smile.

Ji Xuan Kong was somewhat surprised by his words.

His reputation had actually spread so far? Even the Demon World knew about him?

Seeing Ji Xuan Kong's confusion, Ye Qing explained, "I also like music, but only as a simple enjoyment. I've heard that you have taken the path of music cultivation and have achieved something different. I admire that!"

"So, I hope you can voluntarily surrender or forfeit. A pair of hands that play the zither should not be used for fighting and killing!"

Ji Xuan Kong was displeased by his words.

"Brother Ye, thank you for your advice, but Ji has never had a hobby of yielding without a fight!"

Ye Qing nodded and said, "Well, then we'll have to fight!"

Ye Qing seemed somewhat embarrassed.

It seemed like he really didn't want to fight Ji Xuan Kong.

As the bell rang, Ji Xuan Kong sat cross-legged and placed a new zither on his lap.

Jiang Bai couldn't help but exclaim, "This guy is really rich, another Innate Spirit Treasure!"

The Innate Spirit Treasure that could be considered a treasure in the mortal realm seemed like cabbage in Ji Xuan Kong's hands.

One after another, as Ji Xuan Kong plucked the strings with his hands, sword-wielding figures immediately appeared around him.

It was clear that Ji Xuan Kong was somewhat unhappy.

Right from the start, he used his ultimate move.

Ye Qing waved his right hand, and a pitch-black long knife appeared in his hand.

The knife was as black as ink and extremely slender.

It was as tall as an average man.

But in the hands of the already tall Demon Race, it looked just right.

Pure demonic energy surged from his body.

A half-body demonic shadow appeared behind him.

Ji Xuan Kong closed his eyes and played the zither with his ten agile fingers.

Under his control, hundreds of sword cultivators immediately attacked Ye Qing.

Ye Qing also wielded his knife and charged towards Ji Xuan Kong.

With a swing of his arm, he executed a graceful knife move and slashed at the first sword cultivator who charged at him.

There were no fancy movements.

This slash cleanly turned the sword cultivator into specks of starlight.

Jiang Bai immediately became alert.

The opponent's knife, just like his sword, was concise to the extreme, without any unnecessary movements.

He immediately realized that the opponent must have comprehended something similar to the Sword Heart.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to wield the knife so skillfully.

Those sword cultivators were no match for his knife.

Under the flying long knife, only the Immortal Monarch and Immortal King shadows remained of Ji Xuan Kong.

But based on Jiang Bai's previous experience, Ji Xuan Kong wasn't too surprised.

To put it bluntly, the other shadows in his hands were just for show, only the Immortal King and Immortal Monarch shadows were real.

"You should surrender. The sword and the knife are merciless. I don't want to hurt you," Ye Qing advised.

Ji Xuan Kong's expression became even more unpleasant. This was underestimating him too much.

From childhood to adulthood, no one had dared to underestimate him like this.

"No need, let's continue!" Ji Xuan Kong said.

Ye Lan sighed helplessly, "Then be careful!"
