Chapter 64: Retreat from a Foreign Land
"The Western Wasteland has been pacified!"
Looking at the words Jiang Jue left before he left, the Human King found it hard to understand. However, his main focus at the moment was to support the battles in other ancient domains first.
Moreover, Jiang Jue's departure to support the Immortal King of Samsara would also make the king feel much more at ease. Although the Immortal King An Lan and others were repelled by another Immortal King before, it is obviously impossible that these kings are the only ones crossing the border from the foreign land this time.
When the Human King returned to the Original Imperial City, he was stunned by a piece of news.
"Oh my god, is the news reliable? This Qingjue King in the restricted area attacked with great force and directly suppressed an immortal king."
Some True Immortals exclaimed, it has only been such a short time and already a king has been suppressed in the war between the two sides. This news is indeed shocking.
"A fellow Taoist from the Ancient Domain of Youdu has sent me news that not long ago, King Qingjue suppressed the Immortal King Menglun from the foreign land, and also repelled the Immortal King Wumi and another unfamiliar Immortal King."
"It's really against the will of heaven. With such might, he must be a giant of all time. Fortunately, he is not an enemy!"
In the Borderland Imperial City, the cultivators who received the first-hand news were extremely shocked. The king of the restricted area was more terrifying than they had imagined. Even though he was in the borderland, it was only in the last era that a king was suppressed.
At this moment, even the Human King felt a little lucky. If the King Qingjue had been driven to a foreign land by them, the pressure on the primitive ancient world would be even greater facing such an enemy at this moment. He certainly knew how terrifying a giant could be.
Just look at the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Lunhui and you will know that, apart from the ancestral spirits, they are regarded as the leaders of the primitive ancient world.
In the Xumi Realm, the bloody battle among the five peerless kings almost spread to the thunder abyss where Jiang Jue entered the realm.
There were myriad rays of light between heaven and earth. That was the light of laws that bloomed from the dense true patterns. When the thunder swept across, there was even a faint sign of the thunder abyss expanding, as if it was being pulled in.
The five kings attacked without hesitation, causing the entire world to form a terrifying area of time distortion. From a distance, a faint layer of time power isolated the place where no one could stand. This was the sea of time spinning strangely. Time was already in chaos. The fragments of the void were beaten and engraved with many strange visions and flowed into the cracks of time. The no-man's land had long disappeared, and no ancient domain could withstand such an impact.
Clang!
The sword spanned the sky and the earth, and the Heavenly Slash that tore apart time was extremely terrifying. Unfortunately, when such a Heavenly Slash sank into the strange black and red sea of flowers, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and no fluctuations of laws were heard.
"kill!"
The Immortal King Li Wang's eyes were red, and his whole body was glowing with colorful blood.
He already showed signs of madness. From the start of the fight till now, he had been suppressed the entire time. It was useless even if he unleashed his original energy. His crazy killing spree had no effect on this strange sea of flowers that reflected the sky and the earth.
He swore that if he had a choice, he would rather face two Immortal Monk Kings than fight the purple-haired young man in front of him. The feeling of having power but nowhere to use it was driving him crazy.
It's like you're bursting into action but can't hit your opponent.
And his opponent is Chi Ling. This seemingly ordinary attack contains terrifying power to destroy the world, because you don’t know whether the incoming attack is the opponent’s real killer move.
The immortal king Li Wang from the foreign land was hit by Chi Ling so hard that the light of his soul dimmed. Chi Ling's strength was not weaker than that of the Immortal Monk King. Moreover, he came from the Dark Emperor Butterfly, and his secret technique had the power to transcend the boundary between reality and illusion. This kind of power could be called the ability to steal the sky and replace the day. It was like being directly immune to physical attacks, which was simply unheard of.
Since Chi Ling joined the battle, the pressure on the Immortal Monk King was greatly reduced. Even though he was not a giant, he did not show any sign of retreat when facing the king beast and the immortal king Jia Yao.
Moreover, as time goes by, the Immortal Monk King's six-foot-tall golden body is still superior.
The Immortal King Jiayao and the ancient beast were beaten so badly that their bodies were covered in blood.
However, suddenly, a series of "dong dong dong" sounds came from the back of the alien world. Ripples appeared in the void, and this was a kind of drum sound that almost ignored the barriers of the world.
"This is the drumbeat of retreat for my world, penetrating the world barrier. What's going on? Mount Xumi is about to be breached, why are we retreating all of a sudden?"
Mount Xumi was in tatters, and the smoke and flames of war filled the air. An immortal said solemnly, "Follow my command, retreat!"
In the void, an immortal waved a huge flag and used the power of his origin to shout loudly, and his voice spread throughout the heavens and the earth.
Even though they had doubts, who would dare to disobey the retreat drum sounded by the Immortal King? The army immediately withdrew from Brahma Heaven.
"What's going on? We planned to enter the primitive ancient world and destroy the laws here, but why did they suddenly send out a signal to retreat?"
In the bloody battle, the Immortal King Jia Yao conveyed his message to the other two.
"Something bad happened to the people who captured other ancient domains?"
After the attack, the Immortal King Li Wang, who escaped from the sea of flowers, frowned and spoke.
"Li Wang, Jia Yao, Zhu Yin, come back quickly, Meng Lun has been suppressed."
Suddenly, a strange vision emerged from heaven and earth. The vast ancient river was shocking. Time flowed like water. The echoing sound caused waves when it was transmitted. It was a terrifying creature that was summoning the three immortal kings across the long river of time.
"What? Menglun was suppressed."
Li Wang was shocked, how could he not know the strength of the Immortal King Meng Lun? Was it that a giant from the primitive ancient world took action?
"This situation has exceeded our expectations. Let's retreat!"
The Immortal King Jiayao looked at the Immortal Monk King's clenched fists and realized that the other party's physical body was indeed superior.
Seeing the army of the Xumi Realm retreating madly, the three of them looked at each other and turned around and fled without hesitation.
Chi Ling smiled slightly as he watched the three immortal kings retreat, presumably Brother Qing Jue had taken thunderous action to suppress the alien's attack.
The Immortal Monk King did not attack rashly. If it were not for the Blazing Spirit's help, the consequences would be disastrous. The foreign land was well prepared this time. If it were not for someone suppressing the Immortal King in a short time, Mount Xumi might have been reduced to ruins this time.
"Thank you, King Chiling, for helping us save the lives of all races from being destroyed."
The Immortal Monk King spoke with a bitter face. After all, too many lives had died, and the monk king also felt pain in his heart.
"You are very polite, Monk King. However, if the foreign land retreats this time, there will definitely be a day when it will come back. Our world needs to call all the kings to discuss it."
"Yes, this time the foreign land has sent out many immortal kings and they will not give up. It seems that we need to contact some fellow Taoists who have gone out to sea and come back."
The Immortal Monk King spoke, and several kings from the primitive ancient world went out to sea to seek opportunities, but the situation was so critical that they had to be called back. More than a dozen immortal kings from foreign lands refused to cross the border, and only the Immortal Realm and the primitive ancient world could stop them. If it were other ancient worlds, they would surely be destroyed.
Moreover, maybe there will be more creatures coming next time.
The turmoil was so terrible that it swept across dozens of large regions in the borderland in a short period of time. However, after Jiang Jue suppressed the Immortal King Meng Lun, the foreign armies all retreated within a few days.
At this moment, in the outer starry sky, Jiang Jue looked at the long river of time on the future timeline that reflected the present world and spanned the starry sky with a solemn look in his eyes.
Such strange phenomena as the long river of time have been set off, and next he might really have to fight with the most powerful king in the world.
