Chapter 919: Famous (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations
Tap, tap, tap.
Light footsteps came from the special wooden stairs of the Clear Moon Pavilion, but every step made the hearts of the immortals drinking immortal tea in the building beat faster, and they found it difficult to control their auras.
Every underground dark force in the Northern Ice Immortal City had fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They were famous for their ferociousness. Even the weakest of them could not be underestimated. Other than the late-stage Mystic Immortals of the five great armies and the main cities, no one dared to provoke them.
The Phoenix House’s owner was rumored to be a late peerless immortal. It was said that his ranking on the foreign races’ bounty list wasn’t low. If one provoked such a god of death, he could easily wipe out the entire Clear Moon Pavilion.
The rules of Immortal City prohibited killing, but the rules were dead. They were only useful to peerless immortals and below.
The Heavenly Court did not care at all about the fight between experts. The immortals who were watching from the sidelines were not afraid at all. They were all inside the immortal array. As long as they did not really kill until their eyes turned red, there would not be any safety problems. Moreover, it was rare for such experts to fight.
On the second floor of the private room, Cheng Yi the Golden Splitting Spear, who was wearing a silver mask, sat opposite Shen Ping. The immortal tea on the table had just been changed. The fragrance of tea wafted up. “Fellow Daoist Shen, I originally planned to visit you in a few days, but I didn’t expect you to take the initiative to invite me.”
Shen Ping said indifferently, “There’s no need for a visit. On the other hand, the business of your Phoenix House is really not small.”
Cheng Yi smiled. “It’s just some business. If Fellow Daoist Shen likes it, you can participate and take a share. I can make the decision and take out 40%.”
He still could not figure out Shen Ping’s intentions. The peerless immortals they’d killed over the years might not have been mid-stage, but they represented a certain level of strength. Any faction would try to rope in such an expert. They would only attack when they couldn’t reconcile their fundamental interests. He was willing to fork out 40% of the profits because he valued the other party very much.
“I don’t want Fellow Daoist Cheng’s business, but your business is an eyesore.”
“What do you mean, Fellow Daoist Shen?”
“Nothing. I just don’t like you.”
Cheng Yi was stunned. What kind of fucking reason was that? He had never had any conflict with this Shen. How could he not be happy? “Fellow Daoist Shen, don’t joke around.”
“I’m not kidding.”
Shen Ping’s expression was calm. Cheng Yi’s expression darkened, and his tone became slightly cold. “Fellow Daoist Shen, could it be that you want to form a grudge with me?”
Shen Ping picked up the immortal tea and drank it in one gulp. “It’s not a grudge, but from the moment you entered the Clear Moon Pavilion, you were already a dead person!”
Cheng Yi suddenly stood up and slammed his palm on the table, causing it to shatter. “Shen, don’t think you can ignore all the experts in the city just because you killed a few peerless immortals. Hmph!”
A spear covered in golden patterns suddenly condensed in his hand. The tip of this spear carried an icy coldness that almost froze the surrounding space. The immortals sitting in the private room and drinking tea outside tried their best to resist.
Shen Ping smiled faintly. The aura on his body extended and instantly expelled the coldness. At the same time, it formed a domain. “Bring out all your strength. Let me see how many tricks the 15th place on the foreign races’ Bounty List has!”
He originally wanted to find immortals of the same level to fight, and he was not limited to the foreign races. The Golden Splitting Spear in front of him could be considered a demon. In order to eliminate dissidents, Phoenix House had secretly killed many immortals.
He didn’t feel guilty at all about killing such a peerless immortal. Now that he had said so much, Cheng Yi already knew that there would be no peace today, so he directly attacked.
The ice-cold spear instantly stabbed forward. The space seemed to shatter. The violent immortal spiritual energy instantly tore the private room apart and stabbed Shen Ping’s face at an extremely fast speed.
At this distance, the match between peerless immortals arrived in an instant.
Just as the tip of the spear was about to pierce through Shen Ping, a silver-white spear light appeared and quickly pushed the cold spear away. Then, it swept over like lightning.
Cheng Yi’s face changed. Although they had only exchanged a few blows, Shen Ping’s terrifying strength and spear techniques made him realize that his reputation wasn’t undeserved. His strength was definitely in the late peerless immortal realm.
He suddenly had the intention to retreat. He wouldn’t fight a late peerless immortal for no reason. After the ice spear blocked the sweep of the Primordial Chaos Spear, he quickly retreated.
Shen Ping shook his head. “Golden Splitting Spear, you’re an expert at the top of the bounty list after all. Aren’t you a little too timid?” The surrounding domain instantly solidified. No matter how the spear attacked, it could not break through the domain.
“No way!” Cheng Yi found it unbelievable. A Mystic Immortal could possess an Immortal Spirit Domain. Under this domain, even Golden Immortals would be greatly suppressed. Heavenly Immortals would feel as if they had fallen into a swamp. As for True Immortals, they would be directly killed by the domain.
He was a peerless immortal. Not to mention this type of domain, even if he activated his domain to the limit, it would be difficult to suppress it.
“Don’t waste your energy. This is the Heaven and Earth Great Dao Domain!” Shen Ping was not in a hurry to make a move. With his strength, if he really wanted to kill him, he could use the great dao of heaven and earth with a thought and kill him. However, in order to find that opportunity, he gave him a chance to display his strength.
Cheng Yi widened his eyes. “You, you actually have a top-grade immortal artifact… Alright, since you’re courting death, don’t blame me!”
