Qin Wentian, was he going to die?
Despite so many experts on his side, it was still hard for him to avoid death today.
In the direction of the Darknorth Immortal Empire, Pei Qing floated in the air, quietly observing the battles. He spoke lightly, "The cultivation of this man is insufficient yet he is so arrogant. I long knew he would die at a young age, but I didn't expect it to be so soon."
Beiming Nongyue was extremely unhappy when she heard this. She coldly replied, "Because he once smacked your face with his words, you are extremely unhappy and decided that he is arrogant? Don't forget who was the one being arrogant first back then. In the end, didn't the arrogance someone displayed turn into humiliation and that person had to slink away like a defeated dog?"
Pei Qing narrowed his eyes, staring at Beiming Nongyue. "As an immortal emperor, I naturally have the qualifications to be arrogant. At that time, who the hell was he? A mere immortal king dares to act so arrogantly before me? If that place wasn't in the Darknorth Royal Palace, how would I have spared him? The ending he is going to have was already predicted by me back then. A man's attitude determines his destiny."
"The things he dares to do as an immortal king, you as an immortal emperor might not dare to. A mere immortal king like him can make over half of the major powers in the immortal realms fight over his fate. Didn't you always self-proclaim to be extraordinary? Saying that you are the number one genius of the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty? But in front of him, your radiance dimmed to the point of darkness. Are you jealous of him?" Beiming Nongyue continued, causing Pei Qing to be even more unhappy. Despite the Darknorth Immortal Emperor beside him, Pei Qing couldn't help but to snort coldly at Beiming Nongyue to express his unhappiness.
"Can you two be quiet?" Beiming Youhuang frowned, her tone sounding extremely irritated. Beiming Nongyue and Pei Qing didn't continue to speak.
Outside the battlefield, there were some who were gloating over Qin Wentian's misery, there were others who felt incomparably nervous. Jun Mengchen, Nanfeng Yunxi and their group hated that they weren't strong enough to join the battle. Sadly, although they were considered exceptional characters at the immortal king realm and could be considered true experts in the perspective of the immortal realms, they were still not qualified to join this war. Those participating now were all immortal emperors. If they joined in, death was their only fate.
Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng stared unmovingly, at the battlefield. Or more accurately, they were staring at Qin Wentian. At this moment, Mo Qingcheng looked extremely weak. As for Qing`er, after Qin Wentian's proposal and words, she no longer cried. Her beautiful eyes flickered with the coldness of an unbendable resolve.
In that battlefield, the immortal king from the Paragon Sword Sect pressed forth with his finger as the boundless sword might radiated forth crushed down with merciless might, wanting to kill Qin Wentian in body and soul.
At the same moment, the constellation behind Qin Wentian transformed into the form of a supreme devil. For an instant, it was like a devil god descended down to the world, summoning numerous members of its kind, their auras engulfing everything, sealing this entire space, using a convergence of their palm attacks to block the pressure of that paragon sword blow.
"Mhm?" The eyes of everyone flashed. Qin Wentian actually still had the power to defend? Why did his method seem somewhat similar to achieving a resonance with his constellation?
A symbol of an immortal emperor was clearly the fact that they could resonate with their constellations. Their power far exceeds immortal kings. During combat, emperors would use this method frequently to overwhelm their opponents.
But at this moment, an immortal king actually did the same thing? However, could he really withstand the attacks of an immortal emperor with just that?
One must know that resonating with one's constellation might grant immortal emperors great power. But immortal emperors are still immortal emperors, they are not solely restricted to this method. Their cultivation realm was a step higher and the energy within their bodies was terrifying to the extreme. Maybe other immortal emperors could stop the paragon sword attack. But an immortal king wanted to do so? Isn't that nothing but a fool's dream?
"Qin Wentian is quite intelligent, he actually thought of mimicking immortal emperors to try and defend against one. However, that's nothing but an ant trying to shake a tree. He's ultimately still overestimating himself and is doomed to fail." Everyone mused.
That immortal emperor from the Paragon Sword Sect had a mocking smile on his face. He stared at Qin Wentian who was surrounded by devils who seemingly stood in a protective formation.
"You are so humorous." That Paragon Sword Sect's immortal emperor laughed. After that, he slashed out with his sword. He didn't slash at the gigantic palm formed from the convergence of palm attacks. He aimed for Qin Wentian directly.
"Burning rebellion!"
Qin Wentian's blood force erupted out. An inky black Xuanwu Turtle manifested, glowing with blood-red light, exuding holy will. It actually didn't shatter from the sword attack. This caused that immortal emperor from the Paragon Sword Sect to have a look astonishment on his face.
His defense was actually so strong to this extreme? Although cracks appeared on the turtle shell, it actually didn't shatter. No wonder he could reign supreme in the immortal king realm, unrivaled by all others. No wonder he could cause experts from all directions to gather here for the sake of killing him. People wanted to kill him not only for the mere sake of revenge. They also wanted to remove a future threat. There was no way they could stand still and watch an enemy like Qin Wentian grow stronger, rising to the top step by step. The further he proceeded, the harder it would be for them to kill him.
The Violet Emperor and the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor were the clearest with regards to this point. When Qin Wentian was weak, although they had killing intent, they minded their status and face, and didn't act personally to kill him. But later on, their hearts were filled with regrets. The Eastern Sage Immortal Sect was destroyed, a son of the Violet Emperor, Zi Daolong, was killed by Qin Wentian. Right now when they finally wanted to act personally to kill Qin Wentian, Qin Wentian already was in a position where so many other major powers moved to help him.
If a few hundred more years passed, once he broke through to the emperor realm, who in the immortal realms would be able to kill him?
The aura of the immortal emperor from the Paragon Sword Sect surged. Boundless sword intent congregated as one, transforming into a gigantic supreme sword that filled the sky with hums. His lips curled up in a smile filled with killing intent. This attack should be sufficient to end Qin Wentian.
"The reason why I can kill so many people from you major powers is because of only one reason. They, are the same as you. Always overestimating yourself."
As the sound of Qin Wentian's voice faded, the devil god's shadow behind him howled with anger. Qin Wentian stabbed out his finger aiming for the sky. In an instant, the giant palm from before moved. It trembled as numerous devil imprints fell from the sky, cleaving down towards that immortal emperor from the Paragon Sword Sect.
"KILL!" Qin Wentian roared. The devil god behind him let out an earth-shattering roar as a supremely powerful palm powered by the entirety of power of God's Hand slammed out frenziedly towards that immortal emperor.
At this moment, that giant palm transformed into a supremely terrifying grand formation. The palm attacks rained down ceaselessly with such might that even immortal emperors couldn't afford to ignore it. The immortal emperor from the Paragon Sword Sect pressed his palm forward, forming another supreme paragon sword in his hand as he swept out in an arc with it. RUMBLE~ The palm attacks blasted down, but many of them were lacerated into nothingness by the sword intent. However, the palm attacks seemed endless, there were simply too many of them. The paragon sword trembled as it began to lose its luster.
The expression of this immortal emperor turned ugly. He finally understood what Qin Wentian meant by that sentence he spoke earlier. Some people, although they are just immortal kings, couldn't afford to underestimate them.
The energy in the immortal emperor's body churned wildly. Right now, it was impossible for him even if he wanted to borrow the strength of his constellations. He could only depend on the energy within him. Countless sharp swords manifested into being, wanting to rip everything apart but they were soon shattered by the unending waves of palm strikes. Qin Wentian's left hand lifted up as a devil saber materialized. A moment later, it sliced down, directly aiming for the immortal emperor's soul. Even for an immortal emperor, he could feel the extreme pain in his soul as his face turned pale.
The palm attacks continued raining down unceasingly. It was so fast that the naked eye could no longer follow its speed. A wail of reluctance echoed out thunderously as all the swords eventually got destroyed. The remnants of energy from the palm strikes all slammed into the immortal emperor's body. If he can't kill the immortal emperor with a palm strike, he would then launch the same attack over and over again. Deafening explosive sounds rang out as the surroundings trembled intensely. Finally, the immortal emperor could no longer withstand the destructive power as his body exploded, instantly turning into dust.
Qin Wentian's energy consumption was terrifying to the extreme. Sweat covered his entire body. There was ultimately still a distance between theory and reality. Despite his careful consideration and planning on how to kill an immortal emperor, when he truly fought with one, it was still incomparably difficult.
But at this moment, all the experts here were dumbstruck. The one who died wasn't Qin Wentian? It was that immortal emperor from the Paragon Sword Sect!
An immortal king killing an immortal emperor?
This was a battle that turned everyone's logic topsy-turvy. Although the characters here were all extraordinary individuals, all of them were still incomparably shocked.
Many immortal emperors narrowed their eyes when they saw Qin Wentian's strength. In that case, Qin Wentian should die even more. If he doesn't die, how could they feel at ease?
As expected, the battle raged fiercer and fiercer, there were instantly immortal emperors who started to kill their way over in Qin Wentian's direction.
However, to those who wished to protect Qin Wentian, they were incomparably surprised, but their joy soon faded away. Such an elite genius, was he really going to die here like this? They fought even more frantically, trying to block those immortal emperors who wanted to kill Qin Wentian.
When Jun Mengchen, Qing`er and their group saw such an awe-inspiring scene, they didn't feel joy or surprise. Instead, their worry grew more intense instead.
Pei Qing narrowed his eyes, a cold intent could be seen flickering within.
"Immortal emperor? Pei Qing, you are also merely an initial-stage immortal emperor." Beiming Nongyue coldly mocked. Before this, Pei Qing was still feeling so proud due to his identity as an immortal emperor, saying that Qin Wentian couldn't compare to him. However, in the blink of an eye, Qin Wentian had already killed an immortal emperor!
