1493 You’re Joking, Right? Impossible, White Robes Appears Again
The Qinghua Imperial Commander’s arrival shocked many of the cultivators in Laojun City.
“He’s Qinghua Imperial Commander, the one ranked ninth on the Immortal Ranking! Why is he here?”
“Was it because of Ji De? I heard the Ji clan got the support of both the Immortal Halls. Is he here to save Ji De?”
“Does the Immortal Hall think highly of the Ji clan?”While everyone was surprised by the Qinghua Imperial Commander’s arrival, they also turned to Lan Yu to see how she would react.
After all these years, the rumors about the Immortal Halls causing Chu Kuangren’s death had never stopped. As one of Chu Kuangren’s closest followers, what would Lan Yu do against an Immortal Hall Prodigy?
“Qinghua Imperial Commander, are you here to stop me?” she asked.
“I am here for something else. But since the Ji clan is closely related to the Immortal Hall, if you want him dead, I can’t just let you kill him either.”
A vigorous battle intent shot into the sky, and after a chuckle, Lan Yu said, “Is that so? What if I insist on killing him? Would you be able to stop me?”
“I’ll try.”
“Heavenly God Ray!” Lan Yu skipped the chatters and shot a white light beam at her foe.“Break it!”
The azure sword at Qinghua Imperial Commander’s waist unsheathed itself and shot out a dazzling sword ray that slashed even the heavens and crushed the beam with ease.
He looked at Lan Yu seriously. “I didn’t expect more trouble to arise even after Chu Kuangren’s death. To think that you, Chu Hong, Jue Wushen, and the others are still on the Immortal Ranking.
Chu Kuangren might be dead but his followers remained.
Each and every one of them was ranked high on the Immortal Ranking, and if they fully developed themselves, they would eventually be a formidable foe for the Immortal Hall.
One example was Jue Wushen, who led the Pseudo-Celestial Demon Tribe and reigned over the Holy Violet Emperor Planet. Other than his personal talent, his authority had become one of his greatest weapons.
“I should kill her here to prevent her from growing stronger!”
A chilling killing intent flashed in the Qinghua Imperial Commander’s eyes.
As though she had read Qinghua Imperial Commander’s thoughts, Lan Yu gripped her scepter tightly and channeled her Immortal’s Core to the limit to activate the divine ability of the Radiant War Immortal Physique once again.
A vast and endless river was summoned.
“Endless Tempest Tribulation!”
The Qinghua Imperial Commander grunted as he fully utilized his cultivation abilities. Mystical Daoist patterns circulated around him, and the spiritual energy of the realm gathered upon him, forming a massive tempest.
With the wind howling and the lightning rumbling, its power alone trembled the universe.
The Radiant River clashed with the violent energy, causing half of the space around it to collapse. Then, a massive hole appeared in the void above Laojun City.
The Qinghua Imperial Commander got off his mount, and his energy gradually rose.
Immortal Sparks blinded the sky as the light of the Gilded Trait shone brightly, outshining even the sun.
He had broken through to a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal!
The power of a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal and the talents of a Peerless Prodigy granted him the strength to challenge even a Ninth-grade Gilded Immortal.
He peered down at Lan Yu condescendingly and said indifferently, “I am ranked ninth on the Immortal Ranking, and you are not even in the top ten. You’re only in the fifth grade, while I am in the seventh grade.”
“Gilded Immortal grades are vastly different even with just one minor grade. You should know better. Lan Yu, what do you have to challenge me?”
His energy was overflowing and wreaking havoc in the void, and the Immortal Sparks around him blinded even the heavens. It was as though he was an Immortal King who had descended on earth.
The might of an Immortal Hall’s Imperial Commander shook the realm.
Many sky-prides were deterred, revered, and shocked.
“Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal! The top ten Prodigies are already in the Higher Third Grade of the Gilded Immortal Realm! How terrifying is that?”
“Others need tens of thousands of years to achieve such height, but it only took him a mere two decades! Is this the luck of a top Prodigy?”
The status of Heavenly Champion, plus one’s luck and the talent of a Prodigy, allowed them to improve vastly in just mere decades.
Especially when the battle of Heavenly Champion was coming to an end, the adrenaline-fueled Prodigies got even stronger.
Lan Yu stared at the Qinghua Imperial Commander, feeling threatened.
Boom!
The Qinghua Imperial Commander dished out a palm strike. His rampant Immortal Core erupted as it struck Lan Yu, sending her flying more than a hundred meters away.
The fight with Ji De and the others, as well as challenging a strong foe like the Qinghua Imperial Commander, had demanded a lot from Lan Yu, who was near her limit already.
“With my current powers, I can challenge Chu Kuangren even if he comes back alive,” the Qinghua Imperial Commander said indifferently as he proudly unmounted his nine-headed lion.
However, a second later, he lamented. “Unfortunately, Chu Kuangren is dead. If he is still alive, I will fight him to relive the glory of the Immortal Hall!”
Boom!
As soon as he said that, a deafening blast shook heaven and earth.
Everyone was shocked, and when they turned to the source of the blast, their expression changed.
It was from the Bagua Furnace!
Meanwhile, further away in the deepest part of Kunlun Immortal Hall, the great ones were gathered together.
“It has been twenty years. I wonder how Chu Kuangren’s refinement is going? Are there any pills that contain his blood essence?” asked the white-robed elderly.
“The most important thing is the transcendental energy he possessed. If we can extract that, we might be able to reach out to the energy,” said one of the great ones.
His words incited greed in everyone else’s eyes.
That was the reason they chose to refine Chu Kuangren using the Bagua Furnace
“I’ve sent the Qinghua Imperial Commander to go and have a look. All we have to do is wait,” said the white-robed elderly.
Suddenly, a massive explosion echoed across the realm.
Even the great ones in the deepest part of the Immortal Hall could hear it.
“It came from Laojun City?”
“What happened?”
The great ones of the Immortal Hall frowned, and they quickly released their Immortal Consciousness to have a look.
When they tracked down the source of the massive explosion, their expression changed for the worse. Their pupils shrank in fear as if they were looking at something horrifying.
“I-It’s the Bagua Furnace! It came from inside the Bagua Furnace!”
“What’s going on?!”
An absurd idea suddenly popped up in their minds, and it fueled anxiety in everyone.
Not only the great ones of the Immortal Hall but even the Arch Gilded Immortals across the Immortal World felt the massive explosion and noticed the anomaly at Laojun City.
Countless Immortal Consciousness flooded into Laojun City from every direction to find out what happened.
Similar to the great ones of the Immortal Halls, they too expressed disbelief when they saw the Bagua Furnace.
“Are you kidding me?”
“Please don’t let that person out again!”
The great ones, who people deemed to be near omnipotent, started praying for some reason.
At that moment, they were panicking.
As the massive explosions continued inside the Bagua Furnace, the consecutive blasts echoed throughout the realm and even shook the whole furnace.
Everyone gulped nervously as they stared at the shaking furnace.
Bang, bang, bang!
The explosions got louder and louder as if a monstrous beast was trying to break out.
“Impossible…”
One of the sky-prides muttered as his body trembled uncontrollably.
Kakroom!
Following the explosion, a tremendous force blasted open the Bagua Furnace’s lid.
Endless flames erupted and devoured everything in their way.
Amid the blazing scene was a peerless figure in white, appearing once more in the public’s eye.
