Chapter 1537: Seven-Inch Immortal Axe!

The situation became extremely grim for the men in black. The Deer Immortal and Goat Immortal were being suppressed by Wang Chong and Song Yuanyi’s group, causing the morale of the men in black down below to plunge. “Aaaah!” The righteous and evil path experts joined together and began to cut through swaths of the men in black.

Rivers of blood flowed across the ground. Not even the Fires of Ju Bi and Mara could stop the ascendant martial artists now.

“Kill them!”

“Slaughter these bastards!”

“Don’t be afraid! They’re at the end of their rope! With Young Master Wang here, they’re no match for us!”

Wang Chong had never imagined that the experts of both the righteous path and evil path would regard him as the heart of this battle, but this was exactly what had happened. Now that he had the upper hand in the battle against the three masked men, the martial artists of both paths were inspired and fought with renewed vigor.

Meanwhile, the bamboo hat men nastily scowled. They had mobilized so many people for this operation, but they had suffered grievous losses to these mortal martial artists. This would make them laughing stocks once they went back.

“Bastard!”

Elsewhere, at the most important place in the battlefield, the Tiger Immortal had long ago begun to tremble in rage from all that he was seeing.

The Deer Immortal was heavily injured, the Goat Immortal was in dire straits, and his men on the ground were in a full rout, and there was still the first-generation successor sending wave after wave of attacks howling at him. All of this had deeply provoked the Tiger Immortal, causing his eyes to turn completely red.

Just as the Tiger Immortal was beginning to think of a plan, clangclangclang! Thousands of swords cried out, exploding with golden light as the first-generation successor attacked once more. The Tiger Immortal converted all his Stellar Energy into a sturdy fortress, but he was still forced back by the attack.

The first-generation successor’s attacks were sweeping and powerful, and they were also concentrated and endless. In this battle, he had been entirely on the offensive, not even caring if he exposed any large weakness.

In truth, there was no need for him to worry about such things. He had been dead for one thousand years already. The Tiger Immortal, on the other hand, had far more to worry about.

Not only that, although the first-generation successor’s attacks were not badly wounding the Tiger Immortal, the constant barrage was wearing away at his Subtle realm energy. If he allowed this to continue, defeat was only a matter of time.

Bang!

The swords cried out as the first-generation successor attacked again, once more sending the Tiger Immortal hurtling into a rock wall.

Kaclack!

After being knocked back again, the Tiger Immortal clenched his steely fingers, their joints cracking. An extremely cold light appeared in his eyes.

“You damn humans! Do you really think that you can fight me with a dead man?!” A cold and thunderous voice resounded in everyone’s ears.

Boom! An immense energy suddenly exploded out of the Tiger Immortal’s body.

The Tiger Immortal had been pushed back again and again by the first-generation successor’s frenzied attacks, and his energy reserves had been greatly exhausted, but at this moment, his body was somehow exuding an energy even greater than before.

This sudden change drew everyone’s attention.

Buzz!

Wang Chong raised an eyebrow and instinctively turned to look.

The Tiger Immortal who had constantly been on the back foot against the first-generation successor erupted with dazzling golden light. This barrier of golden light was so tough that it managed to block the successor’s Sword Qi.

The thousands of swords battered against the barrier, unleashing a shower of sparks, but none of them were able to break through.

Even the grandiose Sword Qi of the first-generation successor was only able to cause the light to dim for a few moments before it once more regained its radiance.

As Wang Chong looked over, he immediately spotted ripples emerging from the Tiger Immortal’s forehead, and in the center of the ripples was clearly a compact golden axe.

This small axe was golden all over except its edge, which was a dangerous red.

“Not good!”

Wang Chong instantly paled.

He had never seen this axe before, but he was no stranger to those ripples of energy.

“Ritual tool!”

The small axe emerging from the Tiger Immortal’s forehead gave him the same feeling as Bagushidu’s Earthblood Cauldrons.

Wang Chong’s heart sank as an ill foreboding took hold.

“Master, Village Chief, Lone Silence Ancestor, Alliance Lord Song, ignore everyone else and attack the Tiger Immortal!” Wang Chong immediately roared, and then he pushed back the Goat Immortal and rushed at the Tiger Immortal.

The Demonic Emperor Old Man, the Wushang Village Chief, and Song Yuanyi turned stern at Wang Chong’s words and cast aside their opponents to rush at the Tiger Immortal.

Wang Chong’s reaction couldn’t be called slow, but it was still not enough in front of a terrifying expert like the Tiger Immortal.

“No one has ever forced me into this! You ants will all have to pay!” the Tiger Immortal furiously bellowed.

The golden axe on his forehead instantly turned scalding hot.

The Seven-Inch Immortal Axe!

This was an extremely powerful ritual tool that the Tiger Immortal had been rewarded with not too long ago.

It had taken a string of contributions, a herculean effort, for him to finally receive this reward.

But while this ritual tool was incredibly powerful, he had only received it a short while ago, so he had not yet refined it.

This ritual tool could not be carelessly used before refinement, as it would result in an extremely dangerous backlash. This was why the Tiger Immortal had initially had no intention of using it.

But now, he was forced to.

Boom!

As the first-generation successor sent another attack at him, the Tiger Immortal’s eyes coldly flashed. The Seven-Inch Immortal Axe in his hand suddenly swelled in size to around two feet long, and he swung it forward.

The entire world seemed to shake as a lightning bolt shot through the air. All space within ten feet of the Tiger Immortal distorted and even began to shatter like a mirror, black cracks creeping across it.

As the space cracked, the Tiger Immortal swung.

The first-generation successor’s Origin Immortal Sword Formation was instantly shattered, thousands of swords obliterated. Deprived of all light, they plummeted into the abyss.

“!!!”

Wang Chong, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, and Song Yuanyi all grimaced.

“Let me see just how capable all of you are!”

The Tiger Immortal narrowed his eyes, glanced at the first-generation successor, and swung again.

Crackcrack! Like shattering ice, another several thousand swords were pulverized by the axe.

Even the milky-white bolt of Sword Qi fired by the first-generation successor exploded.

In just two axe swings, the Tiger Immortal had displayed a strength that completely reversed the battle and suppressed the successor.

“Hmph, let me see how many more swings you can take!”

At this moment, the Tiger Immortal opened his mouth, bit down on his tongue, and spat blood onto the Seven-Inch Immortal Axe. All the blood was absorbed into the axe.

Nourished by the Tiger Immortal’s essence blood, the Seven-Inch Immortal Axe swelled in power.

Not only that, the faint red edge of the axe instantly turned a bizarre crimson.

Boom!

The Tiger Immortal formed a spell with his hands and then extended a finger. The Seven-Inch Immortal Axe blazed with light and suddenly turned into a giant golden blade more than a hundred feet long that hurtled at the first-generation successor and all the swords in the air.

At almost the same moment, the successor gathered all his swords and all his strength, and unleashed his own attack.

There was a heaven-shaking boom as the two attacks collided. But the Sword Qi that had dominated the battle up until this point was now the one that was instantly cleaved apart by the Tiger Immortal’s Seven-Inch Immortal Axe.

In a fierce metallic clattering, six to seven thousand swords were pulverized by the energy of the enormous axe.

The first-generation successor himself was thrown back more than a hundred feet by this dreadful energy.

Bang!

The successor stomped down, somehow managing to resist the impact while standing in mid-air.

This move made both the Goat Immortal and Deer Immortal grimace.

They were well aware of how powerful the Tiger Immortal’s Seven-Inch Immortal Axe was, and the Tiger Immortal had even invigorated it with the precious essence blood of a Subtle realm expert.

In these circumstances, the first-generation successor had still been able to take the blow. This was truly frightening!

“Bad!”

But on the other side, the Demonic Emperor Old Man’s eyes were twitching.

The first-generation successor seemed to possess boundless strength, even able to hold out against the Tiger Immortal’s trump card, a top-class ritual tool.

But the Demonic Emperor Old Man’s sharp senses had noticed that the first-generation successor’s vitality had clearly plunged after blocking the axe blow.

The first-generation used some of the time given to him by the Vitalizing Ember to block this attack!

Wang Chong instantly understood what was going on.
