Chapter 477: Killing the Immortal with One Sword
The five supreme immortals of Taiyi Sect felt that Xiao Tianchen was indeed difficult to deal with. Even when they joined forces with True Lord Haoxuan, they were unable to gain the upper hand.
But Master Hao Xuan saw it more clearly. If the Xiao Tianchen in the rumors many years ago was only slightly stronger than him, then the current Xiao Tianchen, if fighting alone, could completely suppress him.
Although they are both outstanding among the immortals, their strength is by no means static.
The weakest one can probably fight one against three of the same level, a normal one can fight one against five, and the strongest one can even fight one against seven.
If one reaches the highest level of immortality, he can fight ten enemies at once with ease.
Xiao Tianchen has been cultivating himself for 70 million years, and his strength has improved greatly. Although he has not yet reached the pinnacle of immortality, he is only half a step away.
“If he continues to cultivate at this speed, it won’t take more than a few thousand years for him to reach the pinnacle of the immortal realm and become another giant in the immortal world who is no weaker than his master…”
Thinking of the master in front of him, Master Haoxuan's expression became even uglier.
That was a powerful existence that had stood at the pinnacle of the Supreme Immortals billions of years ago. It was rumored that he was not only able to resist dozens of Supreme Immortals on his own, but could even kill them in the fight back!
It has been nearly 100 million years since the beginning of this silence. Who knows whether the True Lord Bei Ming has made one step further and entered the legendary realm of the invincible immortal and reached the realm of his master?
When he thought of Lord Bei Ming's master, Lord Hao Xuan's expression became even more bitter... Yi Zu, that was an invincible immortal who had stood for billions of years. Killing him with a pinch was like killing an ant, it was not difficult at all.
"Alas, why did I let those little brats provoke Yi Zu's closed disciples..."
Feeling that Xiao Tianchen was getting stronger as the battle went on, Master Hao Xuan finally couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
In fact, as a top force that is not inferior to Shenzhou Sect, Sanqing Mountain naturally has no shortage of people in the sect who can compete with Xiao Tianchen, Beiming Zhenjun, and even Yizu.
It’s a pity that, not to mention that the relationship between those characters and him is not as close as that of the Yizu lineage.
The most important thing is that Sanqing Mountain has joined forces with Taiyi Sect this time and even attacked a branch temple of Shenzhou Sect in the capital. This is clearly too much and is a mistake.
Even if the top leaders of Sanqing Mountain want to intervene, when both sides are equally powerful, they still have to be reasonable.
Even the Taiyi Sect would never dare to send out the most powerful immortals to suppress the Shenzhou Sect's disciples when their own men made mistakes.
After all, although Shenzhoumen has shown signs of decline in recent years, it is still one of the top forces.
And there are recent rumors that Jiuding Tianjun has fully recovered from his injuries...
Under such circumstances, how could this not provoke a backlash from the other side when some disciples of Taiyi Sect and Sanqing Mountain still retained the habit of bullying and targeting Shenzhou Sect that had existed for tens of millions of years?
However, facing the current Shenzhou Sect, the two major sects really dare not tear their faces apart and be unreasonable!
Not only was he wary of the recovered Jiuding Tianjun, but he was also concerned about the Heavenly Court.
During this sensitive and turbulent period, the key requirement of Heaven for all the major forces under its command is to maintain basic stability in the fairy world and to be united in external affairs.
Heaven will not tolerate anyone who makes irreparable trouble at this time.
Moreover, even their own ancestors would not protect them.
Beings like the Heavenly Monarch would not care about the disputes between their sects. Although they were the founders of their respective sects, they were also one of the many rulers of the Heavenly Court!
Such as the two Heavenly Monarchs of Eternity and Disaster of Taiyi Sect, the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Monarchs of Sanqing Mountain, the Nine Cauldrons Heavenly Monarch of Shenzhou Sect, and even the Supreme Heavenly Monarch of Taishangtian...
They are all the heads of heaven!
To put it bluntly, the so-called Heavenly Court was originally an organization jointly established by many Heavenly Kings in the Immortal Realm to suppress other Heavenly Kings in the heavens and all realms.
Normally, he let his subordinates' respective sects fight against each other just to prevent the fairy world from becoming a comfortable nest.
If the normal state of the fairy world is a harmonious and peaceful scene, it will inevitably greatly affect the number of strong people produced.
In comparison, the worlds of gods, dragons, demons, and monsters... are all always in a state of extremely harsh competition!
If the cultivators in the fairy world were all flowers that grew in a greenhouse, how could they compete with those wonderful flowers that bloomed from blood in the heavens and all realms?
In the eyes of many Heavenly Lords, competition and fighting are part of the Way of Heaven.
If it is erased forcibly, it will inevitably lead to immeasurable consequences.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, they would allow their subordinates to fight freely, and would basically not pay attention as long as the fight did not lead to the destruction of one side.
Only when there is great turmoil in all the heavens and worlds will they intervene and make all the sects under their command behave themselves and concentrate on dealing with the disaster, so as to avoid giving the God Realm, Dragon Realm, etc. an opportunity to take advantage.
Regarding these situations, the middle-level and lower-level personnel of the major sects naturally don’t know much. However, those at the level of Saint Immortal and Supreme Immortal are well aware of them.
As one of the most outstanding immortals, True Lord Hao Xuan was appointed as the guardian ancestor of a branch temple in the capital city. Naturally, he knew all of these things well.
He deeply understood that although the Taiyi Sect had lost a supreme immortal ancestor this time, the matter would only end there.
The five supremely powerful immortals are their last resort.
It would be best if we could catch Jiang Xuanhuang, the culprit, but if we can't, we can only accept it.
If it had happened in the past, the Taiyi Sect would never have easily let this matter go. Regardless of whether they were right or not, they would have made a big fuss and would not have swallowed such a huge loss.
But in the current situation, unless they no longer care about the Heavenly Sovereign, they can only choose to stop here.
Who asked them to take the initiative to provoke and be the first to violate the tone of maintaining stability set by the Heavenly Court?
Even the Taiyi Sect is like this, let alone the Sanqing Mountain.
"I'm afraid it's about the same as the Taiyi Sect. They'll send a few more Supreme Immortals over and make one last effort... Alas, I have such a miserable life!"
Feeling Xiao Tianchen's increasingly fierce attacks, True Lord Hao Xuan had gradually lost his will to fight.
He knew very well that this time they had brought humiliation upon themselves and had given the Shenzhou Sect an excuse for nothing.
The Shenzhou Sect took advantage of this opportunity to bite off a piece of meat from the Taiyi Sect and Sanqing Mountain and get back some interest.
At the same time, it is also an announcement to the entire fairy world, and even to all the heavens and worlds: the powerful and prosperous Shenzhou Sect is back!
If this were not the case, why would Shenzhoumen have sent a deputy speaker in person?
Even if Chai Xin is indeed worthy of attention, it would be enough to send a few ordinary immortals to help and protect him from harm.
What's more, others might not understand the situation, but how could the chairman of the elders' council not know that Yizu was with Chai Xin?
With Yizu around, Chai Xin's safety would not be a problem at all.
If there really is a problem that even Yi Zu cannot handle, then it will be useless to send anyone unless the master comes in person.
Knowing this well, the Speaker of Shenzhoumen deliberately sent a young and energetic guy who has a close relationship with Chai Xin to deal with the matter. Does the reason need to be explained?
It is obvious that they want to take this opportunity to make Taiyi Sect and Sanqing Mountain suffer, and to restore the prestige of Shenzhou Sect!
"Old man, you'd better follow my uncle's suggestion and pay enough compensation, so as to avoid being defeated by me in public and losing face in the end!"
Xiao Tianchen's spear shot out like a dragon, and his vast magic power forced the five great immortals to not dare to get close, and they could only interfere from the outside.
"Shenzhou Sect's move is tantamount to declaring war on our Taiyi Sect! Xiao Tianchen, do you really want to do this to the extreme?"
An immortal from the Taiyi Sect, who was wearing a turquoise Taoist robe, had a gloomy expression, and his eyes showed both shock and anger.
Not only him, the other four also had the same expression. It was not until they fought with Xiao Tianchen that they finally realized the gap between themselves and him - if it weren't for Master Hao Xuan, they would have probably been defeated!
However, the arrogance they had developed over the years made them unwilling to give in. They were determined to get some "justice" in this matter before they would give up.
Otherwise, if he comes here with great momentum, he will eventually leave in disgrace, and how will he face his fellow juniors when he returns to the sect?
"You old fools, have you lived too comfortably these years? You haven't even seen the situation clearly! Even if I kill you right here today, Taiyi Sect won't dare to say anything more!"
Xiao Tianchen couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and in his heart he despised the stupidity and arrogance of these old guys.
Just as he raised his spear, intending to deal with the two Taiyi Sect's immortals and break their Five Elements Yuan Ling Formation even if it would cause some damage, he suddenly felt a fluctuation of magic power coming from behind.
"Wow!"
Chai Xin, who was originally sitting quietly on the throne, suddenly opened his eyes and stood up straight.
In an instant, an incomparably powerful aura swept across heaven and earth, and everyone was surprised to realize that his cultivation had actually advanced from the initial stage of Saint Immortal to the pinnacle level of Saint Immortal in one fell swoop!
"So fast!"
Even Xiao Tianchen, who had great confidence in his junior uncle, was shocked by the other party's progress.
"What kind of rare treasures did this kid use? Master Yi was really willing to spend a lot of money to train this last disciple!"
"A treasure that can make one's cultivation level rise from the initial stage of Saint Immortal to the peak of Saint Immortal in a short period of time is definitely priceless. However, you don't think that you can shock us by reaching the peak of Saint Immortal? How ridiculous!"
"It is really foolish to waste such a treasure just to improve my cultivation!"
The five people from Taiyi Sect were already in a bad mood, and when they saw Chai Xin's cultivation level improve, they couldn't help but feel even more unhappy, so they started to ridicule him and showed disdain on their faces.
"My dear nephew Tianchen, thank you for protecting me!"
Chai Xin exhaled slowly, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded to Xiao Tianchen.
"Little Master, what are you talking about? This is my responsibility as a disciple."
Xiao Tianchen was still amazed and felt the huge changes in Chai Xin.
"Junior Master is truly a natural talent. He has already broken through to the pinnacle of Saint Immortal after only speaking a few words!"
His vision far surpassed that of the five supreme immortals of Taiyi Sect. He naturally understood that although this junior uncle-in-law had only improved within the same realm, the increase in combat power was very astonishing.
"Tianchen, leave these five old bastards who spew shit to me. It's a good opportunity to test my skills."
Chai Xin didn't say much. He simply put away the throne, raised his hand and cast out the Xuanhuang Seal, then pressed down on the formation formed by the five immortals.
"Okay! Uncle Master, be careful!"
Xiao Tianchen was stunned for a moment, then did not stop him. He waved his gun to separate Master Hao Xuan who wanted to intervene. Deep down, he was also curious about Chai Xin's true strength.
What's more, he had full confidence in his heart. Even if Chai Xin was not able to defeat the five supreme immortals, he would be able to lend a helping hand in time.
"You are such an ignorant evildoer, do you think that without the help of the heavenly tribulation, you can still fight against the most powerful immortals?"
"No need to waste time talking to him. He dared to harm our sect's Supreme Immortal Ancestor. He must be captured and executed!"
"You little beast, suffer death!"
The five people from Taiyi Sect looked at Chai Xin rushing towards them, and there was no sign of nervousness on their faces. Instead, they showed a hint of relaxation.
In their view, Chai Xin was nothing more than a saintly immortal. No matter how powerful he was, being able to be comparable to one or two ordinary immortals was already his limit.
In comparison, the famous Xiao Tianchen is naturally more difficult to deal with.
With the support of the Five Elements Spirit Formation, the strength of these five supreme immortals is not inferior to many of the best supreme immortals.
Isn't it easy to deal with a little fellow at the peak of Saint Immortal's power?
However, what happened next completely changed their expressions.
"Shhhhh!"
As the Xuanhuang Seal was activated, endless divine light shot out, and the power of Xirang was like a net of heaven and earth, covering all five immortals.
The five people immediately realized that their strength had been weakened by more than 30% in an instant!
Even their movements became very sluggish, their magic power was extremely difficult to mobilize, and their coordination with each other was several levels worse than before.
As a result, the effectiveness of the Five Elements Spirit Formation is naturally greatly reduced.
Now, with the help of this formation, if the five of them were to face Xiao Tianchen again, someone would be seriously injured or even killed within ten moves!
Before the five people could react, Chai Xinqu had already arrived. The golden holy sword in his hand reappeared and transformed into a red-gold dragon, pointing directly at the forehead of the purple-robed immortal.
"boom!"
After just one confrontation, the purple-robed immortal was caught off guard due to his carelessness and had his head smashed into pieces!
Even the most powerful immortal can reveal that he has reached the gate of heaven, the place where his soul returns.
Even if it can be broken into dust and restored, if it is suppressed by the powerful force of the law, it will die on the spot.
Chai Xin's attack not only infused all of his magic power, but also secretly activated the Jade of Creation.
Under the impact of the power of creation, how could the purple-robed immortal withstand it?
The soul didn't even have time to escape before it was shredded and turned into complete nothingness, leaving only the purest original energy.
Chai Xin rolled up his sleeves and without hesitation took the purple-robed immortal's body and origin into the Tianxin Holy Realm.
"what?!"
"The third one!"
"Third Brother!"
"What have you done, you little bastard!"
Four exclamations rang out at the same time, filled with indescribable shock and fear.
They stared blankly at the place where the purple-robed immortal disappeared, and they felt their souls trembling.
The third brother, who was full of energy just now, was dead in an instant!
"Why worry? I'll reunite the five of you right now!"
Chai Xin did not hesitate at all, and continued to chop down the next person with the golden holy sword in his hand.
