1567 Fighting the Escaped Immortal(3)

'Yuan…" Xi Meili looked toward the direction of his battle with tightly clenched fists and a nervous face. She wanted to follow him so badly, but she knew she would only get in his way and convinced herself to stay in the room.

Meanwhile, Yuan and the Immortal continued to attack each other as though their lives depended on it.

"White Lance!"

The Immortal created over ten thousand spears out of spiritual energy in the sky before launching all of them at Yuan.

Seeing this, Yuan stopped moving and focused on blocking the attack. Using Dragon's Soul, he destroyed as many of them as he could and purposefully allowed some of them to hit his body.

Even with his godly body and Stygian Vest, the spears were powerful enough to penetrate holes into his body easily. Still, due to his regeneration ability, these holes would instantly recover, and in seconds, it was as though they never existed.

The Stygian Vest, as a treasure, also had a similar function. Unless struck by an attack strong enough to obliterate it completely in one hit, it would always recover.

The Immortal slowly increased their cultivation from the first level of Divine Lord to the peak of Divine Lord.

After an entire day of trying to kill Yuan with no results, the Immortal finally had enough and roared, "Ahhhh! I've had enough of you! I don't know what trick you're using, but I will not let this go on any longer!"

He released all of his cultivation, causing it to shoot to the peak of Divine King instantly. The Immortal's aura was so tyrannical that Yuan felt like someone was strangling him by the neck.

The difference between Spirit King and Divine King was simply too vast, even for someone like Yuan.

Without hesitation, Yuan tossed most of his cards onto the field. After releasing a deafening roar, Yuan transformed into his dragon form. However, he didn't feel that was enough and equipped the Celestial Visage.

"A Celestial-grade treasure! How in heaven's name did he acquire such a treasure in the Fourth Heaven?!" Kelan's entire being trembled after seeing Yuan pull out a treasure far beyond their current realm.

However, what shocked him the most was Yuan's transformation.

"Is he actually half human and half beast?" he wondered out loud.

"Just what the fuck are you?! How many more bullshit are you going to pull out of your ass?!" The Immortal exclaimed after seeing Yuan's transformation.

The Immortal was certain that Yuan was only at the Spirit King level, as he would have advanced his cultivation base long ago if he were higher. However, the fact that he hadn't meant that this was his true cultivation. Yet, this raised more questions. How could a Spirit King be on par with a Divine King?

The difference between their cultivation was so vast that no treasure or technique could bridge the gap—at least, that's how it should've been.

"I am not done yet!" Yuan suddenly said.

A massive avatar appeared, its frame big enough to completely obstruct the Immortal's view of the Purple Sea.

"That's ridiculous!" The Immortal cried out loud.

"That's the God of War's Astral Art! Did Celestial Overlord Xu teach him that technique?!" Kelan cried out loud.

Compared to his previous shocks, this revelation was the most profound, shaking him to his core.

However, Yuan still had more cards to play. After putting away Dragon's Soul, he retrieved Number One Under Heaven, instantly filling the atmosphere with an otherwordly aura.

"A third Soul Weapon!?" The Immortal was on the verge of tears. They could've never even dreamed of encountering such a monster in the Fourth Heaven. Hell, not even the Supreme Heaven had a monster like Yuan.

"Let's play to our heart's content!" Yuan spoke with a wide grin on his face as he struck first.

The first strike descended upon the unprepared Immortal like a falling mountain.

However, as powerful as Yuan's attack appeared, he was still fighting a Divine King, and the Immortal was able to block it without too much difficulty.

The second strike immediately followed.

"Don't you dare look down on me, mortal! No matter how many tricks you have up your sleeve, it won't help you defeat me!" The Immortal roared as they blocked the second strike, then the third and fourth shortly after.

The fifth and sixth strike was also blocked, but the Immortal struggled to do so.

The seventh strike was so powerful that the Immortal barely managed to block it.

Once the eighth strike descended, the Immortal didn't dare to block it and opted to avoid it.

The eighth strike struck the Purple Sea, splitting it in half.

"What's wrong? Why are you running from a mortal?" Yuan provoked the Immortal as he launched the ninth sword strike.

The pressure from the ninth sword strike was nothing to scoff at. Even Kelan, who was watching from afar, felt threatened by it.

Although enraged, the Immortal didn't succumb to Yuan's provocation. Instead, they employed a movement technique so swift that it appeared as if they had teleported.

The ninth sword strike cleaved the Purple Sea with such force that it not only split the water in half but also gouged a profound fissure into the seabed. Two powerful tsunamis were also created from the split water, reaching the clouds.

"Let's see if you can avoid this!"

Thousands of swords appeared in the sky before flying toward the Immortal, who frantically tried to avoid them. However, the swords chased after them like homing missiles.

"Each sword is overflowing with Enhanced Sword Aura! What a terrifying ability!" Kelan felt a strong urge to fight Yuan after witnessing how fierce their battle was.

"I have severely underestimated our newcomer! At this rate, he might actually be able to defeat this Immortal!" Kelan almost couldn't believe his own words.

The thought of a mortal killing an immortal was so outrageous that even insane people wouldn't believe it. Yet, it was slowly happening before Kelan's eyes.
