Chapter 1032: Might of the White-Robed Immortal King
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
"Bai Wuya." Standing in the air, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor spoke, his eyes gleaming with coldness. "My Eastern Sage Immortal Sect has never offended you, yet you actually chose to join the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect?"
Bai Wuya inclined his head, staring at the projection of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor as he emotionlessly stated, "Senior Eastern Sage started a war in the particle world, causing extreme distress and utter misery to the people here. You, who cultivated to the peak of the immortal realms, are shamelessly going all out and creating sin by slaughtering innocents. Such behavior is truly disappointing."
"You are so concerned with slaughtering the lives of people?" The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor asked coldly. "You, Bai Wuya, have cultivated to the immortal king level, so I'm sure the sin reaped from killing won't be considered a small amount."
"All my life, I, Bai Wuya, have only killed those who deserved to be killed," Bai Wuya said calmly. Back then, he'd killed a son of an immortal emperor because he simply deserved to die. Bai Wuya made no distinction about a person's status.
"Hmph." The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor snorted coldly. He then turned to the black-robed man beside Bai Wuya, "Saberlord of Death, are you planning to go against me as well?"
The black-robed man was none other than Mu Yan's master, he was also the person who'd helped Qin Wentian all those years ago. He was the same as Bai Wuya—a member of the Heavenly Talisman Realm. In terms of seniority, the Saberlord could be considered Qin Wentian's senior. But of course, they naturally wouldn't allow any of that to show in public. The Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect became the perfect cover. Everyone else would assume they were all from that sect.
The Saberlord of Death didn't reply to the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. The place he stood at, was already an indication of which side he stood on. Why was there a need to waste words?
"Deepflame, your judgement is unsound and your strength is pitifully mediocre at best. Back then, did you not wish to fight against me? I shall give you the opportunity to do so today." The White-Robed Immortal King Bai Wuya turned his gaze over, staring at Deepflame's gigantic form in the air.
"I truly want to see how strong you are exactly." A towering battle intent gushed forth from the Deepflame Immortal King, so powerful it could collapse the heavens.
"You can go and deal with the others. Just leave those two to me," Bai Wuya said to the black-robed Saberlord of Death.
The Saberlord of Death nodded lightly as he replied, "Okay."
The Saberlord himself was extremely famous too, but he knew how powerful Bai Wuya could be. Bai Wuya was definitely strong enough to stand against both the Deepflame Immortal King and the Scarce Moon Immortal King.
Even in the Heavenly Talisman Realm, Bai Wuya could also be considered as one of the most outstanding immortal kings there.
"Arrogant," The Deepflame Immortal King said tyrannically, his voice thundering through the heavens and earth. Bai Wuya's words were simply making light of them. He wanted to handle him and the Scarce Moon Immortal King by himself?
Both were extremely famous immortal kings within the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures. The Scarce Moon Immortal King was the master of the Scarce Moon Immortal Manor, and the Deepflame Immortal King was a war general under the command of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. Bai Wuya had been an insignificant being when the two of them became famous. Yet now, Bai Wuya had actually dared to be so arrogant in front of them.
—bzz!— As the sound of the Deepflame Immortal King's voice faded, Bai Wuya vanished. A figure appeared in the air, shining with a resplendent runic light. The White-Robed Immortal King's entire being emanated an illusory feeling. He retained his form's size as he dashed over and launched an attack at the Deepflame Immortal King.
In front of the gigantic Deepflame Immortal King, Bai Wuya seemed extremely tiny in comparison.
The Deepflame Immortal King's eyes flickered with the blazing light of hellfire. His palm smashed downwards and enveloped a large portion of space, infusing it with his domain that began raining down balls of fire. The cries of evil demons could be heard as the balls of fire destroyed everything.
Qin Wentian felt apprehensive for Bai Wuya when he saw how strong the Deepflame Immortal King's attacks were. He could clearly sense the destructiveness, yet Bai Wuya actually went head-on and bore the full brunt of it.
At this moment, a piercingly intense ray of light opened up a path through that hellish domain. Bai Wuya stood on that ancient path and gracefully walked forward, continuing his way towards the Deepflame Immortal King.
The Deepflame Immortal King blasted out with his other palm, yet the instant he did so, Bai Wuya's ancient path branched out in another direction and he deftly avoided it. Bai Wuya's movements were like a fearsome bolt of lightning.
"An immortal-ranked movement technique." Qin Wentian surmised from watching Bai Wuya's graceful figure.
At this moment, he had clearly exposed the disadvantages of the Deepflame Immortal King's gigantic form. With his current size, his speed might be considered fast, but his agility was much slower than Bai Wuya in his normal-sized form. Bai Wuya could easily avoid Deepflame's attacks and even managed to launch a few attacks of his own when they exchanged blows. It forced the Deepflame Immortal King into a state of immobility.
The king of hell silhouette behind the Deepflame Immortal King launched out his own terrifying attacks together with him, but they were all useless. Bai Wuya was just too fast. His movement technique contained traces of the great dao and in just a few short moments, he'd managed to face the Deepflame Immortal King.
—BOOM!— The Deepflame Immortal King's form returned to its normal size. His body was too large, allowing Bai Wuya to freely attack his entire form at such a short distance.
Naturally, when he returned to his original form, he instantly erupted forth with boundless destructive might that enveloped everything in his surroundings, forming a domain that belonged only to him. But at this moment, Bai Wuya's figure moved like a phantom, manifesting several resplendent pathways within that domain. He walked easily and freely through the hellish domain without any injuries.
—RUMBLE!— A supreme might gushed forth from Bai Wuya. At the instant the Deepflame Immortal King returned to his original form, Bai Wuya suddenly expanded his size. His robes were made of special materials that could contract and expand together with him. His long white robes fluttered in the wind, constituting a sight of a supreme immortal king that exuded a sense of imposingness and an air of tyranny.
His eyes emitted a dazzling light and a boundless runic glow covered him. The instant he blinked, a terrifying runic light enveloped everything around him, including the body of the Deepflame Immortal King. This was an eye technique, and in that moment, the circulation of energy flowing through the Deepflame Immortal King—the blood in his body and the runes on his bones—were all made visible.
At this instant, the Deepflame Immortal King felt an extremely bizarre sensation. He was under the impression that Bai Wuya could see right through him. He had no way to hide from Bai Wuya's gaze. In fact, just that gaze suppressed his body with a formless pressure so overwhelming it could take his life away.
—BOOM!— The White-Robed Immortal King appeared behind Bai Wuya. Another pair of eyes winked into existence. This was a law that belonged to him.
"DIE!" Bai Wuya shouted. An immortal illusory bridge appeared, linking Bai Wuya to the Deepflame Immortal King. Boundless runes of law energy flickered, seeping directly into the Deepflame Immortal King's body through the power of his terrifying eyes. A moment later, the Deepflame Immortal King felt himself shuddering as from the internal destruction of his body..
He roared in rage and slammed out with his palms in an attempt to destroy Bai Wuya.
—RUMBLE!— The heavenly eyes behind Bai Wuya could penetrate everything and seemed to have the power to tear asunder everything in existence. He lifted his palm and stabbed out with a finger, instantly shooting a ray of law energy at the Deepflame Immortal King's attack, cancelling out Deepflame's destructive energy.
"Kacha…" A crisp sound rang out. The Deepflame Immortal King groaned miserably as his body convulsed. Their battle instantly attracted boundless attention from everyone in the particle world. The people sighed in admiration when they stared at the battle in the air. The white-robed figure was so powerful, suppressing the mighty Deepflame Immortal King with absolute strength.
But at this moment, the shadow of a crescent moon suddenly appeared above Bai Wuya, cascading a freezing cold energy that shrouded Bai Wuya within. Clearly, the Scarce Moon Immortal King had made his move. Right now, the Scarce Moon Immortal King could care less about face. He and the Deepflame Immortal King were joining forces to fight Bai Wuya, this immortal king of the junior generations.
"Scarce Moon, your strength is only at this level?" Bai Wuya turned to the Scarce Moon Immortal King. The light from his heavenly eyes enveloped him, making it so that he was completely unaffected by the energy. With no effort at all, he took a step and broke out of the cone of freezing energy, causing the Scarce Moon Immortal King's expression to turn extremely ugly.
The Deepflame Immortal King retreated, yet Bai Wuya kept dogging his steps. He flashed his startling movement technique once more as Bai Wuya advanced towards him.
The Deepflame Immortal King was shaking violently. Roaring in anger, the entire space started shaking as his fists punched out in a frenzy to destroy Bai Wuya. The might he unleashed was simply too fearsome. The crowd felt like this entire sky was about to be swallowed whole by his abyssal energy.
"Open!" Bai Wuya's heavenly eyes radiated boundless immortal light, becoming a law of its own. Bai Wuya's gaze could split even heaven and earth apart. The entire hellish domain was broken through as an immortal path appeared. Bai Wuya advanced closer, forcing the Deepflame Immortal King into a corner. The Deepflame Immortal King's countenance turned ashen; he was a war general under the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, but Bai Wuya was suppressing him so badly it had become a one-sided battle.
"The juniors have exceeded the seniors." The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord sighed. He was more than a little shocked by Bai Wuyi's display of strength. And compared to Deepflame and Scarce Moon, Bai Wuya was of the junior generation. When the two of them had made their name, Bai Wuya probably had yet to be born. Yet today, Bai Wuya alone had suppressed the two of them so effortlessly.
Regardless of the time of cultivation, if one's talent was strong enough and didn't die prematurely, that person would be able to surpass all those who came before him.
The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor's expression turned unsightly to behold. Although Bai Wuya's reputation was great, he had never seen him in battle before. Now that he had witnessed his power firsthand, he understood that Bai Wuya's reputation didn't do him justice.
A terrifying energy ravaged the interior of the Deepflame Immortal King's body and he gradually felt his own strength spiraling out of control.
"KILL!" A cold voice rang out. Bai Wuya's eyes shone with a dazzling light and as a piercing sound rang out, the Deepflame Immortal King actually spat out a mouthful of blood, his countenance turning pale.
—BOOM!— Bai Wuya took another step forward, not giving the Deepflame Immortal King the chance to retaliate. The Deepflame Immortal King roared—his face was completely white, his expression extremely malevolent!
