467 Slaying a Heavenly Immortal
“That’s it?”
Chen Yiming was shocked by himself. He hadn’t expected it to be so easy. There weren’t any hidden tricks on the huge rock that could resist the divine power.
A chaotic battle had broken out. Even though the three old immortals were stuck, there was still a heavenly immortal among the immortal factions who could join the battle at any time.
In the end, it did not end up in the hands of the immortal factions or the Infinite Island Group. Instead, a third party had succeeded in stealing it.
“Gasp! Another person appeared. Were my eyes playing tricks on me just now? It’s not that his speed is too fast, but he has a spatial ability.”
“I didn’t expect so many spies to be planted in the immortal factions. It was originally one against many, but in the blink of an eye, the number of spies became completely equal and it was divided into many one-on-one battles.”
“The huge rock has fallen into the hands of outsiders. It will be troublesome if we can’t snatch it back. We, the immortal factions, won’t be able to obtain any reinforcements in the abandoned world.”
The people from the immortal factions who had left North Mountain City were in an uproar. Everyone was talking about the consequences of losing the huge rock forming the space teleportation portal, which were far-reaching. It was definitely a loss that the current group of immortal factions could not withstand.
At this moment, the most anxious were the heavenly immortals from the immortal factions.
“You’re courting death. This isn’t something you can steal,” the man in armor shouted and extended his arm. A halberd flew out of the chariot pulled by the dragon. The handle was inlaid with a crystal, and there was a scene of the world being destroyed.
In an instant, the man leaped into the air and slashed down with his halberd. The scene in the crystal became real. A huge star fell, and a sun exploded. Chen Yiming’s figure was drowned out.
“Alright! We didn’t let that person escape successfully.”
The people from the immortal factions who had retreated far away erupted in cheers.
At that moment, they really felt like their hearts had stopped. They were afraid that the person who had stolen the huge rock would disappear right under their noses.
“Tong Tian, don’t let him escape,”
the woman with the jade horns emphasized.
Neither faction had the time to take care of the huge rock, but the situation had not turned extremely bad. However, the situation was already not good now.
They had to snatch back the huge rock first. Otherwise, the immortal factions would lose their confidence and their opponent would easily seize the opportunity to defeat them one by one.
“Boom!”
Faced with the halberd slashing down with a destructive force, Chen Yiming didn’t hesitate to use his divine power, the Reversal Palm, to meet the attack head-on.
If he was surrounded by a group of heavenly immortals, he would naturally prioritize escaping. However, he only had one opponent now, so he could take the chance to verify his current limits.
A huge palm that covered the sky opened up and grabbed at the sun and stars.
Then, a huge explosion occurred in the air. Be it the huge palm that covered the sky, the falling stars, or the hot sun, they were all destroyed.
Chen Yiming and the man opposite him slid backwards in space to widen the distance between them.
This made Chen Yiming’s gaze narrow. Earlier, the two of them could be said to have reached a draw. He hadn’t been able to gain the upper hand, and neither had his opponent.
With the enhancement from his two powerful talents, he could completely fight someone of a higher level. On the other hand, this meant that his opponent was not a weakling among the heavenly immortals.
Little did he know that the heavenly immortals were worried again.
The heavenly immortal Tong Tian was definitely someone who was very powerful among those of the same level. He did not expect that he would not be able to suppress his opponent with his first move.
Seeing this, Sword Immortal Cang Qing wanted to turn back and help to retrieve the huge rock. However, the Fire Scales Elder saw through his intentions and immediately held him back.
Sword immortals were not perfect either. They had high attack power and high speed among those at the same level, but their defense was relatively mediocre.
For example, the Fire Scales Elder, who had the fire dragon bloodline, could withstand Sword Immortal Cang Qing’s attacks without any worries.
Therefore, this flaw was targeted by the Fire Scales Elder. He could not be killed for the time being and could only forcefully continue to fight him.
“The outcome has been decided!”
The holy monk from the divine temple had a calm expression on his face.
He didn’t know Chen Yiming, but he thought that they were all on the same side. Seeing that the outcome of this deal was already set in stone, the Fire Scales Elder fought even more fiercely.
He had been in seclusion all year round, and he thought highly of his bloodline. He did not pay much attention to matters below the star evolution realm.
Even after the battle between Chen Yiming and the person with twin pupils and caused a huge commotion, he was still unaware of the situation. Coupled with the fact that the spies had their own arrangements, he treated Chen Yiming as one of their own.
At this moment, the outcome of the sneak attack on the three old immortals had also changed. Their rescue had failed.
The monk who had stabbed the old immortal’s body with his ink-black palm slowly fused with him when his eyes could not be completely covered in black.
Then, the black spots successfully completed their invasion and controlled the old immortal like chains that could not be broken.
The monks from the divine temple had displayed their strength to the world. If the heavenly immortals were successfully ambushed, they could still be killed.
“How could this be!”
The expressions of the people from the immortal factions changed drastically.
As soon as the battle broke out, the immortal factions lost one member, and it became a five-on-five battle.
This way, even if it was a draw in the end, the other party could still rely on the advantage of having the huge rock in their hands to successfully retreat.
At the same time, Chen Yiming played along and took the initiative to attack. He could continue to verify the strength of the other divine powers he had cultivated.
With a clang, a metal spear appeared in his hand. Lightning was wrapped around it. This was formed by the divine power, the Purgatory Divine Lightning.
The combination of metal and lightning was a fusion lightning-based divine power, so its lethality was higher.
“Again!”
As soon as Chen Yiming finished speaking, he teleported in front of the heavenly immortal Tong Tian.
His opponent, who was wearing armor and holding a halberd, was just worrying about how Chen Yiming could take the opportunity to escape. He did not expect him to advance instead of retreating. His body instinctively reacted and raised his halberd to slash down.
However, at this moment, Chen Yiming’s speed was too fast. This wasn’t pure speed, but his spatial ability. This caused his opponent’s body and consciousness to experience a mismatch.
“Kill!”
Both sides shouted at the same time and pushed their powers to the limit. Boundless light blossomed.
The halberd brushed past Chen Yiming’s shoulder as it landed. The destructive power from the explosion of the sun, moon, and stars didn’t hit their target. Instead, most of them hit the air.
In the next moment, the ground below exploded, and a bottomless black hole appeared.
On the other side, Chen Yiming’s determined gaze appeared amidst the lightning, and the sound of thunder rang out.
The metal spear stabbed out and stabbed into the chest of the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian. The divine power, the Purgatory Divine Lightning, pierced through his armor and entered his body. Finally, it exploded.
“Die!”
After being invaded by the fusion lightning-based divine power, the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian panicked. Even though he might be severely injured, he still had to launch a counterattack.
His free hand condensed the Yin and Yang energies in his palm, and then his immortal blood fused with it. This was a blood sacrifice technique among the immortal techniques. With the fusion of the immortal blood, its power increased greatly.
In the end, the Yin and Yang energies that had fused with the immortal blood also struck Chen Yiming in the chest. His flesh exploded on the spot, and a bloody hole appeared.
This was not all. The terrifying Yin and Yang energies contained the natural laws of life and death, and would continue to severely injure the other party. This was an injury that was very difficult to get rid of.
“Hmm?”
Instead of treating his injuries immediately, his opponent was still trying to injure him. Chen Yiming realized his opponent’s choice.
This type of combat style was usually based on one’s extreme confidence in one’s physical talent. One would firmly believe that one would survive to the end even if they were also severely injured and had a stronger overall recovery ability.
Of course, since he was only injured, Chen Yiming wasn’t afraid of his opponent. Even if it was an immortal technique at the same level as his divine power, it clearly didn’t have the ability to kill him in one strike.
This way, the other party would only be courting death.
“Let’s go!”
Chen Yiming’s eyes flashed coldly. The space in his empty hand became distorted. This was the divine power, Bending Heaven and Earth. Coupled with the Purgatory Divine Lightning that was already wreaking havoc in his opponent’s body, he hoped to kill him in one strike.
The divine power that was so terrifying that it could tear divine artifacts into pieces also shocked his opponent. However, the damage caused by the Purgatory Divine Lightning greatly reduced his reaction speed.
At this moment, it was too late to dodge. At most, he would try to land a counterattack on Chen Yiming again.
“Oof!”
The air distorted as Chen Yiming injected the divine power Bending Heaven and Earth between the eyebrows of his opponent, causing his face to be mangled. A terrifying twisting power erupted.
At the same time,
a ball emitting a boundless immortal light was injected into Chen Yiming’s body by his opponent.
The immortal light emitted by this ball was extremely sharp. It could even cut through the chains of natural laws in the air. It was a terrifying immortal killing technique.
The Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian had once relied on this to fight one against two in a battle between heavenly immortals. The two heavenly immortals fighting against him did not dare to get close to him easily because they were guarding against this attack.
Next, the two of them separated with their respective injuries.
Tong Tian’s body was overflowing with the divine lightning, and a terrifying twisting power was also wreaking havoc on him. The scene was too terrifying. His body was broken into pieces, and not a single part of it was intact.
Chen Yiming wasn’t much better. The Yin and Yang energies drowned out his figure, and immortal light continuously pierced through his body.
Every time the immortal light landed, the ground was slashed open like tofu. Nothing could withstand the power of the immortal light.
“What!”
Seeing this, the people from the immortal factions were dumbfounded.
No one had expected such a scene. The other battlefields were still in a stalemate, but the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian had been severely injured.
The other heavenly immortals glanced over and gasped.
The Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian had pushed himself too far. Fortunately, he had successfully kept his life. At the very least, he had protected the huge rock and allowed the immortal factions to continue guiding other reinforcements over.
That’s right. In the eyes of the other heavenly immortals, Chen Yiming was the one who would die. As for Tong Tian, who still had the incomplete Nirvana Immortal Technique, as long as he didn’t die on the spot, he would be able to recover after the battle.
After the chaotic battle broke out, the army of barbarian chiefs under the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian retreated into the distance. They knew very well that the battle was not at a level that they could participate in.
However, it was now their turn to go on stage. As long as they could help a little, the balance of victory would immediately tilt in their favor.
“Roar!”
The army of barbarian chiefs was formed by three earth immortals and a group of human immortals. In the blink of an eye, they surrounded Chen Yiming.
Each of them had been through hundreds of battles and had followed the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian to fight in various battlefields. The weakest among them had at least an average combat strength. Together, they were a force to be reckoned with.
“Oh? They’re quite bold.”
Chen Yiming chuckled. The Purgatory Divine Lightning turned into a metal spear that was full of lightning, and he threw it at the army of barbarian chiefs.
Next, lightning drowned out everything. Under the divine power of the Purgatory Divine Lightning, the strongest army under the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian was directly burned into ashes.
This was the result of the difference in their expectations. The army of barbarian chiefs thought that Chen Yiming was making the best use of his time to stabilize his injuries and couldn’t mobilize much of his strength.
In reality, the immortal light had pierced through his body, but the injuries were only superficial.
The Yin and Yang energies that were wreaking havoc in his body drowned out everything, and the fluctuations were intense. Otherwise, the outside world would have realized that Chen Yiming’s injuries were almost completely healed.
Furthermore, to Chen Yiming, the so-called army of barbarians chiefs was too weak. He could easily crush those of the same level, let alone the fact that most of them were only at the human immortal realm.
Sword Immortal Cang Qing could kill a god at the star condensation realm with just one look. Chen Yiming could also easily do it with his terrifying spiritual will.
“This…”
The Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian’s face was filled with disbelief. He had only barely stabilized his injuries. Even if he was a heavenly immortal, injuries caused by the natural laws were not something that could be ignored.
The incomplete Nirvana Immortal Technique he had mastered could only be used after dealing with the injuries caused by the natural laws. It was not the complete True Phoenix Nirvana Immortal Technique.
“Immortal Blood Fire!”
Suddenly, the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian roared when he saw that his opponent had returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
Clearly, at this moment, he was regretting it. He did not have the time to think about why the almost indestructible Yin and Yang energies had suddenly been resolved. However, he was unwilling to give up just like that. There was still the forbidden immortal technique that he could use as his trump card.
“It’s too late.”
Chen Yiming sneered and used the space anchor to teleport closer again.
The immortal blood was illuminating the void, and a long river vaguely appeared. Inside was an invincible war god leading a team to fight in outer space.
This invincible war god was the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian.
However, it was too late. The advantage he was most proud of had been crushed. Using the forbidden immortal technique with his severely injured body would only cause his injuries to worsen.
Divine power, Reversal Palm.
A palm that covered the sky appeared, causing the sky to tremble and the void to crack. At lightning speed, it grabbed the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian, who was using a forbidden immortal technique.
Then, that was all. The forbidden immortal technique did not unleash the power it should have. Everything calmed down, and except for the other battlefields, there was a dead silence.
“The Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian has died.”
The people from the immortal factions were all in a daze.
They were not sad about the death of the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian, but because the balance between the two sides had tilted. If the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian died, would the next one to fall be far behind?
In other words, the Infinite Island Group had the advantage. A few heavenly immortals might have the ability to escape, but the others did not have the ability to withstand the power of a god at the star evolution realm.
At that time, those from the immortal factions would become prisoners, and their outcome would definitely not be good…
At this moment, the people from the immortal factions still thought that Chen Yiming, who had suddenly appeared, was from the enemy camp. They didn’t know that this was a beautiful misunderstanding.
It was impossible for Chen Yiming to help the Infinite Island Group wipe out the immortal factions.
Firstly, there was no need for that. Secondly, from the perspective of the humans from the blue planet, since they were also going to descend into the abandoned world, they would definitely prioritize weakening the strongest factions here.
