Chapter 306 Immortal Lord, Willow Goddess Battles Quasi-Immortal Emperor!
Meanwhile, in the far north of the Douluo Continent.
This is the coldest place on the entire continent, covered in ice and snow all year round, with snowflakes flying everywhere, and almost no ordinary living creatures can survive here.
But today, this ancient and unchanging world of ice and snow appears somewhat terrifying.
The blizzard that was raging in the sky was abruptly suspended in mid-air.
It's not because the winds in the far north have stopped.
Rather, it was because of the enormous light curtain hanging high in the sky.
The deepest part of the icy plain.
Two exceptionally elegant figures stood side by side atop an ice peak.
The woman on the left is wearing a bright green dress, has a pretty face, and her long dark green hair is tied up at the back of her head.
But at this moment, there was not a trace of color on her fair face.
Hyotei.
As one of the top three ferocious beasts in the far north, her nearly 400,000 years of cultivation allows her to practically roam freely on this continent.
But now, Hyotei's body is trembling uncontrollably.
She reached out a hand and tightly grasped the sleeve of the person next to her.
"Xue... Xue'er".
Hyotei's voice trembled noticeably, and his teeth chattered.
"What exactly is that black thing?"
Beside Hyotei stood a woman dressed in a pure white dress, her temperament as noble and aloof as an iceberg snow lotus.
The far north, the Snow Emperor.
Snow Empress did not answer Ice Empress's question.
His icy blue eyes were fixed intently on the screen of light in the sky.
Xue Di's breathing also became very rapid, and her chest rose and fell slightly.
The screen was showing the catastrophe that occurred at the edge of the Immortal Realm.
The towering black tsunami, hundreds of millions of feet high, and the single drop of jet-black blood suspended at its center.
"I have no idea."
After a long silence, Xue Di slowly uttered these four words.
Her voice was very soft, as if she was afraid that if she spoke even slightly louder, she would disturb the indescribable, terrifying being within the light screen.
"That aura is beyond the comprehension of us soul beasts."
"It even exceeds the comprehension of the entire Douluo Continent."
Xue Di looked at the celestial kings and giants in the light screen who were usually high above and regarded as gods.
"Look at those people."
Xue Di stretched out her finger and pointed at Pan Wang and Hunyuan Xian Wang, who were struggling to hold on in the light screen.
"Each of these beings known as Immortal Kings could probably crush the five Great God Kings of our Douluo God Realm with a single finger."
"They can create or destroy a world with the slightest gesture."
"But what about now?"
"With so many powerful Immortal Kings joining forces, they couldn't even stop a ripple emanating from that drop of black blood."
"Not only that, that old Immortal King named Gu Chen was only splashed by a single drop of water, and instantly turned into a mindless monster, slaughtering his own sect."
Hyotei swallowed hard as he listened to Yuki's analysis.
"Just a drop of blood..."
Hyotei muttered to himself.
"How could such a terrifying thing exist in this world? Just what level of monster is the master of that black blood?"
Hyotei recalled the arrogant faces of the gods in the previous Divine Council.
Now look at that drop of black blood in the light screen, which can even be instantly assimilated by a Celestial King.
"If that drop of blood were to fall on Douluo Continent..." Ice Emperor dared not think any further.
Xue Di also closed her eyes.
If that black tsunami were to surge toward Douluo Continent, there would be no need for the blood droplet itself to descend; its mere aura would be enough to instantly mutate all living beings on the continent, turning them into mindless zombies who only knew how to kill.
Just as the two were gripped by deep fear, the scene on the screen in the sky suddenly changed.
The scene shifts from the devastated edge of the Immortal Realm to a peaceful starry sky within the Immortal Realm.
A void portal radiating celestial light slowly opened.
Immediately afterwards, a young man dressed in white with a calm expression walked out of the door with his hands behind his back.
Behind him followed the peerless Liu Shen, and several supreme beings whose auras were as deep and boundless as the ocean.
The moment I saw that figure.
Suddenly, a bright light burst forth from Hyotei's eyes, which had been filled with fear.
"It's the Immortal Lord!"
Hyotei was so excited that he grabbed Yuki's arm tightly.
"Xue'er, look! The Immortal Lord has also noticed the change over there!"
Xue Di, of course, saw it too.
She looked at the composed young man in white on the screen, sensing the unique aura emanating from him that seemed to encompass all things and assimilate the Dao.
My heart, which had been pounding in my throat, miraculously calmed down a bit.
"Immortal Lord..."
Xue Di murmured the title softly.
She recalled all the scenes that had unfolded since the light curtain descended.
This Primordial Immortal Lord faced not only the invincible Heavenly Venerable of the Boundary Sea, but also the Immortal King of another realm, and even the remnant soul of the Immortal King who had just been resurrected in the lower realm.
He always had that calm and collected demeanor, as if nothing in the entire universe could trouble him.
"Will he go?" Hyotei asked nervously.
"He will definitely go."
Xue Di looked at the light screen, her tone carrying an expectation that even she herself did not realize.
"That drop of black blood was terrifying to the extreme, even a Celestial King giant could not withstand it."
"But I have a gut feeling."
Xue Di's gaze was fixed on Jiang Chen's back.
"This Primordial Immortal Lord will never back down."
"Perhaps, we will have the honor of witnessing the true thunderous power of this supreme being today."
Hyotei nodded repeatedly.
At this moment, whether it was the two ferocious beasts in the far north or the Soul Masters watching from other corners of the Douluo Continent.
Even the gods of the divine realm, who were utterly defeated.
All eyes were focused on the young man in white.
They are all waiting.
I hope that the man revered as the Immortal Lord will be able to completely suppress that arrogant drop of black blood.
...
A perfect world, on the edge of the immortal realm.
The starry sky above Zhenhai Palace has now been completely transformed into a dark inferno.
Pan Wang grunted, and the illusory image of the ancient peach tree protecting him dimmed even more.
The bronze halberd in the hands of the Chaos Immortal King had been corroded by black spots, and even his powerful Immortal King body had begun to emit wisps of black energy.
As for the Xuan Tian Immortal King, he was already exhausted and could only lean against the broken palace wall, panting heavily.
"It's too late to stop it..."
Pan Wang looked at the black tsunami that was still closing in step by step, his eyes filled with bitterness.
Despite their combined efforts and the use of every means at their disposal, these powerful figures could only slow down the tsunami's advance, failing to harm the drop of black blood in the slightest.
The mutated Ancient Dust Immortal King was like a mad beast, relentlessly attacking their defenses.
It's not far ahead.
Li Changsheng gripped his longsword, its blade stained with blood—his life essence coughed up after being injured by the recoil.
He forced back the Ancient Dust Immortal King who was rushing towards him with a sword, but he also staggered in the void due to exhaustion.
"Is the Immortal Realm truly facing its end today?"
The Chaos Immortal King was unwilling and roared in anger.
The black blood at the center of the tsunami seemed to sense everyone's exhaustion.
It suddenly accelerated its rotation, and a dark assimilation force ten times larger than before crashed down on everyone like a volcanic eruption.
Faced with this certain death blow, Pan Wang and the others closed their eyes, preparing to burn their Immortal King essence for a final, desperate struggle.
However, at this critical moment...
A calm and gentle voice suddenly rang out in the dark starry sky.
"Fellow Daoists, you've worked hard."
"Leave the rest to me."
The sound wasn't loud, but it seemed to carry an irresistible force of the Great Dao, piercing directly through the churning dark waves and clearly reaching everyone's ears.
Then, to everyone's astonishment...
A beam of clear light, seemingly capable of washing away all the filth of the world, descended from the sky and forcefully cleaved a wide passage through the overwhelming darkness.
The end of the passage.
Jiang Chen, with his hands behind his back and dressed in spotless white robes, strolled leisurely in the clear light.
Beside him, the Willow God moved with light steps, surrounded by thousands of emerald green willow leaf phantoms.
Behind the two.
The three Immortal Kings—the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, the Great Master of the Spirit Wall, and the Bird Master—along with Shi Yi and the Double-Pupiled Woman, all followed with solemn expressions.
Such a lineup is amazing.
The originally raging dark matter around them seemed to have encountered some natural enemy, and involuntarily retreated and avoided it.
"Master!"
When Li Changsheng saw the person who had arrived, a look of wild joy immediately appeared on his originally pale face.
He quickly sheathed his sword, ignoring his injuries, and knelt down on one knee in mid-air.
"Chang Sheng failed in his duties and did not stop such filth. Please punish me, Master!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen also slightly raised his hand, and a gentle force of creation lifted Li Changsheng up.
It not only stabilized his body, but also instantly calmed the turbulent blood and qi in his body.
"You've done a great job by being able to cleave the tsunami with a single sword strike."
Jiang Chen spoke in a gentle tone.
"Step back and rest."
Pan Wang, Hunyuan Immortal King, and the others stared wide-eyed at Jiang Chen and his group who had suddenly arrived.
Their gazes swept over the Lord of the Forbidden Zone and Grandpa Jingbi, among others, behind Jiang Chen.
"That's... the second best in the world? And there's also the Immortal Golden Daoist?"
The Chaos Immortal King exclaimed in surprise, recognizing these two old acquaintances who were famous in the Immortal Ancient Era.
"Didn't they perish long ago due to their Dao injuries? How could this be..."
Pan Wang's gaze became even more profound.
Looking at Jiang Chen, who was at the head of the group, and feeling the aura of assimilating all things emanating from him, he was also filled with a huge wave of shock.
"You are…" Pan Wang stepped forward, about to speak.
"roar!"
At this moment, a roar that was not human suddenly came, interrupting Pan Wang's words.
The mutated Ancient Dust Immortal King seemed to have sensed the pure aura on Jiang Chen that he found extremely repulsive.
He abandoned Pan Wang and the others, his body covered in black barbs and scales opened, transforming into a black lightning bolt as he pounced on Jiang Chen.
"Watch out!" Upon seeing this, the Xuan Tian Immortal King immediately shouted.
This mutated Ancient Dust Immortal King possessed an indestructible physical body, which even the Hunyuan Immortal King's battle halberd could not cleave.
However, faced with this brutal attack...
Jiang Chen didn't even glance at him, maintaining his hands behind his back.
The Lord of the Forbidden Zone, standing slightly behind and to the side of Jiang Chen, had a cold glint in his eyes.
"presumptuous."
The master of the restricted area took a step forward and stood directly in front of Jiang Chen.
He didn't use any magical weapons; he simply raised his right hand and pressed it forward seemingly casually.
"boom!"
A loud bang was heard, and the Lord of the Forbidden Zone's slender, fair hand firmly landed on the scaled head of the Ancient Dust Immortal King.
With a single blow, the dark monster, which was originally extremely violent and difficult to suppress even when several Immortal Kings joined forces, was subdued.
Under the pressure of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, it was as if a massive mountain was pressing down on him, and his entire body suddenly froze in mid-air, unable to move forward even an inch.
And this was naturally due to the great kindness of the Immortal Lord; otherwise, in his remnant soul state, he would have been no match for him, let alone be able to make a move.
"Stubborn and obstinate".
The Lord of the Forbidden Zone snorted coldly, and a dazzling cluster of immortal runes erupted from his palm.
"Bang!"
The mutated Ancient Dust Immortal King's body was like a kite with a broken string, directly slapped away and crashed heavily into the black tsunami, unable to get up for a long time.
Upon seeing this scene, Pan Wang, Chaos Immortal King, and the others all gasped in shock.
One move!
With just one move, the monster was suppressed?
Just what level of combat power did the white-clad youth's entourage possess?
But soon, everyone's attention was drawn to the strange noises coming from the depths of the tsunami.
As the Ancient Dust Immortal King was defeated.
The drop of quasi-immortal emperor's black blood at the center of the tsunami seemed to be completely enraged.
It sensed the existence of Jiang Chen, this anomaly.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
As a chilling tremor resounded, the void surrounding the drop of black blood began to collapse on a large scale.
The black blood was no longer still; instead, it transformed into a jet-black stream of light that shot towards Jiang Chen's brow!
The blood was dripping too fast.
When it gets close, even a veteran immortal king like Pan Wang can only be seen as a blurry black line.
The destructive pressure belonging to a quasi-immortal emperor was completely released at this moment.
The surrounding shattered stars were silently reduced to dust under the influence of the oppressive force.
"Immortal Lord, be careful! The assimilating power on that blood must not be touched!" Pan Wang exclaimed in alarm.
Jiang Chen remained calm as he watched the drop of black blood shoot towards him.
"Gentlemen, you're really willing to spend a lot of money."
After saying that, he did not back down, but slowly took a step forward.
"Since it has been delivered, I will accept this generous gift."
However, just as that drop of black blood was less than ten feet away from Jiang Chen...
Liu Shen, who had been standing quietly beside Jiang Chen, finally made a move.
She didn't say anything, but her plain white dress moved without any wind.
Immediately afterwards, tens of thousands of glistening willow branches spread out from behind her like a peacock spreading its tail.
Every willow branch exudes an intensely rich life force and the light of creation.
"go."
The willow god's cold voice rang out, and the thousands of willow branches instantly transformed into a verdant prison, intertwining directly in front of Jiang Chen.
"boom!"
