Chapter 486: Enjoying the Show
Endless darkness spread from Chen Ming and engulfed the star.
He linked with the star, controlling its energy, and bolstered his spiritual power.
With but a thought, he brought forth endless starlight blades around Golden Tiger’s Earth Immortals.
In the span of a tea break, Golden Tiger saw what was left o his men, corpses.
He turned to the Death Crow, “What kind of treasure is that? It can end a thousand immortals so quickly!”
His eyes shined with greed. If he had it, it was the same as having an army.
It counted the same as a ten thousand Earth Immortals army. An army and a treasure that could end an army were two different concepts.
He could face an army at a moment’s notice and needn’t waste time training it either. And better yet, he could carry it.
No Gold Immortal in the Atlas Constellation would be his match.
But the terrifying fact was that he also felt the pressure from the crow, lowering his power by 20%.
With such a rare and precious treasure, he’d soar!
Greed consumed him as he watched Bu Liuhen with intent to kill, “This is not something for you to have!”
He was charging at Bu Liuhen and the latter knew it was time to bolt yet stood still. Golden Tiger struck him until he coughed blood. Bu Liuhen said, “Damn it! I don’t want this Death Crow!”
Bu Liuhen flew away, leaving Chen Ming behind.
Bu Liuhen disappeared into the void under Golden Tiger’s unconcerned eye. The important thing was that he left the Death Crow.
Without Bu Liuhen’s immortal power, the Death Crow stopped and fell from the sky.
Chen Ming was waiting for Golden Tiger. Smacking the ground wouldn’t hurt him, but would add another dark and black stain on his already unclean history.
Golden Tiger watched it with a careful eye. As he saw it falling there, he caught and inspect it. It’s completely normal.
Another armored man, holding a spear, came from the forest. He extended his hand to Golden Tiger, “Give it to me, Sire Faceless sent me for it.”
Golden Tiger caressed the crow. He had no clue how it worked, how it approved an owner.
Since most treasures needed blood to bind, he cut his finger and dripped on it, yet no reaction, “Blast it! It can’t be owned?”
But then Chen Ming opened his beak and said two words, then returned to being dead still.
Golden Tiger was overjoyed, “It must be that I’m not qualified yet, but I can still use it to some extent.”
He wanted to link with Chen Ming, but no reaction came. It has to be its character. As all soul weapons have one, then this Death Crow must be no different!
The spear-holding man shouted, “Golden Tiger, you dared own Sire Faceless’ treasure?”
Golden Tiger laughed, “Jade Tiger, are you talking about that Celestial Immortal trash? How is he fit to have such an item?”
Jade Tiger glowered, “You want to betray Sire?”
“Nothing he gave me was worthy of my attention, but this has it completely. If he is willing to give it to me, I have no intention of betraying him.”
“Then die!”
Golden Tiger laughed, “Jade Tiger, you’re not my match!”
Jade Tiger sneered, “You’re not much stronger than me. I only need to hold you down. Once Sire Faceless’ other tigers come, your fate is sealed!”
“Then have a taste of this Death Crow. Death Crow, harbinger of death, activate the array!”
Since Bu Liuhen, a Celestial Immortal, could use it, Golden Tiger believed the chant was the key.
Endless darkness spilled from Chen Ming and spread to every corner of the star. Golden Tiger didn’t feel any pressure while Jade Tiger was on the receiving end.
Golden Tiger laughed, “Awesome!”
Golden Tiger punched at him with a Dao Chain. Seeing the danger, Jade Tiger resisted with his spear but still staggered back a dozen steps.
Jade Tiger turned to the Death Crow in the sky, “Damn it! It has such power!”
Golden Tiger laughed, overflowing with glee. The Death Crow made him unparalleled among Gold Immortals!
If he slowly studied it, his power would grow even further.
Chen Ming was a spectator to their gruesome battle. Jade Tiger was clearly lacking but he needed only to stall.
Nothing to do with me. I’m only enjoying the show.
They’re the enemy, and them fighting is not my business.
After a bitter fight that took six hours, Golden Tiger became more valiant and punched Jade Tiger into the ground until he was soaked in blood.
They were hardship cultivators the both of them and Gold Immortals on top. Killing one wasn’t easy.
Yet it didn’t bother Golden Tiger, pressing his advantage against Jade Tiger.
Jade Tiger also felt his death drawing near and wanted to flee, with Golden Tiger hot on his tail.
Chen Ming acted by enveloping 3,000 starlights around Golden Tiger’s fist. Golden Tiger smiled at Chen Ming, “Precious treasure! And it even understands my intentions!”
He was oblivious to the starlight’s effect but one thing he did know, that it powered up his fist.
Propped up by Chen Ming’s array, Golden Tiger was like a savage tiger, beating Jade Tiger again and again. Availing to the hole in his guard, Golden Tiger crushed his head in three strikes.
He wiped himself of blood, picked up Jade Tiger’s weapon, and flew to Chen Ming, where the crow landed on his shoulder, still as a statue.
