Although the immortal realms and Myriad Devil Islands have always been in opposition, this was clearly just a grudge between Zi Daolong himself and the Judiciary Devil Hall of the devil islands. They wouldn't be so foolish as to be implicated and interfere within.
"That's right. Everyone, we are all heroes from the immortal realms. This time, the people of the judiciary hall of the Myriad Devil Islands are acting so arrogantly in the City of Ancient Emperors and want to hunt down one of our fellow members. In order to remove all future sources of trouble, we should band together and kill them now to prevent another example of the Desolate Mountain Range where they might invade us in the future." The immortal kings from the Skymist Immortal Empire naturally were on the same side as Zi Daoyang.
"Trying to rally the powers of the immortal realms now? When the greater demons tyranny shook Gazing Emperor City, why didn't any of you stand out to resist? Such devotion to righteousness that inspires reverence, it's nothing but an act to cover your own sinister schemes. Ridiculous." A mocking voice rang out. Zi Daolong turned over, staring at the person who spoke. This person was none other than Saber-Sword Immortal King whom he met before in the Gazing Emperor City. His eyes then flickered with a cold killing intent.
"Shut up!" Zi Daolong coldly spoke. He didn't expect that Qin Wentian would stand out to speak for the devil cultivators. This was simply courting death.
"As an immortal cultivator, you are actually speaking on behalf of these devils. Such a traitor, how can we allow him to live? Someone go and kill him."
Zi Daolong's voice was cold. A moment later, a powerful immortal king directly moved towards Qin Wentian. Before this, Qin Wentian was together with those people from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect and he had long wanted to kill this fellow. To think that this person would actually appear here alone and even dare to step out to talk nonsense. He was simply courting death.
The eyes of everyone flashed, staring at Zi Daolong. As expected of a son of the peak-stage Violet Emperor. This poor fellow merely spoke a single sentence and Zi Daolong wanted Qin Wentian's life just like that. Truly tyrannical enough.
The immortal king that stepped out was a personal disciple of the Violet Emperor. His cultivation base was very high. Law energy crackled around him as violet qi filled the area. He lifted his hand and punched out, materializing a violet dragon that lunged towards Qin Wentian, exuding a ferocious and domineering might.
Qin Wentian pulled out his sword, slashing forward as his sword qi flooded the area, directly slaying that dragon. That immortal king continued to advance and blasted out with his palms while roaring with anger. A swirl of violet qi formed into astral wind, intending to lacerate everything. The two violet palm imprints slammed forth with thunderous might, wanting to destroy Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian's silhouette flashed, rushing out with the speed of lightning. His movements were light and his speed was exceptionally quick, directly slashing out two sword strikes in an instant. A dazzling sword intent appeared, slashing the palm imprints into two. After that, he stared at his opponent and sliced down with his sword. In the next moment, a formless energy bore down. His opponent only felt his consciousness shaking as he entered a dream-like state.
"Damn!" His countenance drastically changed. When he struggled free, the beam of sword light had already reached him, directly blasting into his body. His eyes were wide open like saucers, he didn't expect that his opponent would be so ruthless, directly killing him.
"You are so...ruthless." A weak voice rang out. Those were the last words spoken by the disciple of the Violet Emperor. After that, his body fell from the air as he died.
Zi Daolong's eyes gleamed with a terrifying light. His aura gushed forth, alongside with the experts around him, towards Qin Wentian.
"You actually dared to kill him?" Their identities were all extraordinary, as disciples of the Violet Emperor. Even if they wanted Qin Wentian's life, according to their understanding and logic, the other party wouldn't have dared to kill someone belonging to their side.
"Bzz!" Qin Wentian couldn't be bothered, directly slashing out with another strike. A strand of sword qi shot towards the person who spoke earlier, he used the most tyrannical and direct action to respond to their words.
"You guys already gave the order to kill him yet you all still have the face to say such words? I'm really impressed." Bujie clasped his hands and spoke, causing Zi Daolong and the others to have unsightly expressions.
Although Bujie's words were logical, there was no doubt that the Saber-Sword Immortal King was too audacious. With a cultivation base at the mid-stage he actually directly stood in opposition to Zi Daolong and the rest. One must know that Zi Daolong and his allies had quite a number of peak-stage immortal kings among them. Such power was sufficient to easily crush the Saber-Sword Immortal King.
"BOOM!" A peak-stage immortal king beside Zi Daolong acted, destroying the burst of Qin Wentian's sword intent. After that, several experts stepped out, their auras were all majestic and overwhelming, enveloping Qin Wentian.
"Go!" Bai Qing waved her hand. Several powerful devil cultivators around her stepped out, their devil might gushing forth. A red-colored bolt of judgement power cleaved towards those immortal kings moving towards Qin Wentian, giving them a huge sense of pressure. They had no choice but to turn around and face off against these devil cultivators.
"Let's act and kill the devil priestess today." Zi Daolong commanded. Many experts from his alliance nodded and stepped out as they moved towards Bai Qing.
"War!" Bujie spoke. The immortal kings beside him also moved out. For a moment, this entire space was flooded with violent streaks of chaotic energy and destruction. The spectating immortal kings all retreated faraway. After all, the aftershocks from an immortal-king level large-scale battle were extremely terrifying. It would be better for them to retreat to avoid being hit by any of the shockwaves.
"Haha, this place is so lively." A loud voice rang out through the air. After that, Jun Mengchen and several immortal kings appeared. They naturally long already sensed Qin Wentian's arrival and hence, they were here to participate in this battle as well.
"What? The people from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect wish to interfere and betray the immortal realms? Helping the devils?" Zi Daolong coldly spoke. Right now, they possessed an advantage but if these immortal kings from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect joined in, all advantage would be lost and the final victor would be unknown. Even if they managed to win, it would be a pyrrhic victory.
"Wow, placing such a big hat on our heads." Jun Mengchen laughed. "Don't forget that when in the Gazing Emperor Palace, when we were fighting against the greater demons of the Desolate Mountain Range, your attitude was completely different, even joining them to mock us. Right now when the situation changes, are you saying that we have to aid you? Do you guys represent the entire immortal realms? Zi Daolong, your father is already so old yet he is still trying to hunt down my senior apprentice brother. This is already an extremely shameless matter. You have really inherited the shamelessness of your father."
"This fellow is truly gutsy, daring to insult the Violet Emperor like this." Someone mused silently.
After all, the Violet Emperor was a peak-stage immortal king, a supreme expert that stood at the pinnacle of the immortal realms. Even if the Violet Emperor wasn't present, it still took courage to insult him.
However, Jun Mengchen has always been like this, not fearing the heavens nor earth. The Violet Emperor always wanted to destroy the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect and kill Qin Wentian. Why then, would he have any respect for such a person?
"Who will go and kill him?" Zi Daolong spoke.
"Let me do it." A powerful immortal king replied as he walked towards Jun Mengchen.
"Courting death." An extremely cold light flashed in Jun Mengchen's eyes. Tuoba Saintsky, who was beside him, took a step forward. Jun Mengchen and the other members from the Heavenly Talisman Realm all released their law energy.
"This time, I will help my senior brother Qin to vent his emotions." Jun Mengchen coldly spoke. Regardless of the Violet Emperor or the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, he had long held them in disdain. As emperors, they didn't have the bearing of one at all. Back then, if the Violet Emperor didn't push the blame of Zi Daoyang's death to Qin Wentian, there would be no conflicts between them.
The immortal kings rushing Qin Wentian were blocked by the devil cultivators Bai Qing sent out. But even so, there was an immortal king who wasn't blocked by anyone and had arrived before Qin Wentian. He was the one responsible for taking Qin Wentian's life.
"Sending a peak-stage immortal king to kill me. You guys truly regard me extremely highly." Qin Wentian turned and sped through the air. That peak-stage immortal king snorted coldly and followed after him.
"Weren't you very brazen earlier? Now, you actually know nothing but to flee?" That peak-stage immortal king grabbed his hand outwards, manifesting a terrifying heavenly prison, locking Qin Wentian within a sealed space. Terrifying gravity bore down on Qin Wentian, restricting his movements.
"What a powerful law domain, as expected of a peak-stage immortal king." Qin Wentian silently mused. This prison was formed from a fusion of different types of laws, and was able to trap and affect the combat prowess of the immortal king's target.
"How can you flee?" That immortal king mocked. After that, black-colored spears materialized within the prison, exuding a fearsome explosiveness as they launched themselves at Qin Wentian.
"BOOM!" A brilliant radiance sprang up around Qin Wentian but his body was still knocked backwards from the impact. Groaning in misery, it appeared as though he was heavily injured.
"Bang!" That immortal king moved closer, entering the prison as well while he stared at Qin Wentian with contempt. "Although you are a mid-stage immortal king, in front of this seat, you are no better than an ant. How dare you insult an emperor-ranked character. You truly have no idea regarding the immensity of the heavens and earth."
As he spoke, another spear appeared in his hand. This spear wasn't only sharp, it was also incredibly heavy. A moment later, he pierced the spear towards Qin Wentian, wanting to penetrate him.
He was immensely confident in his law domain. A mid-stage immortal king in his law domain would experience severe restrictions to their movements. Such an attack was enough to easily slaughter any mid-stage immortal king.
"RUMBLE!" Qin Wentian's body became a golden vajra body. When that spear pierced out, it slammed right into it and actually penetrated through. But at this moment, Qin Wentian lifted his palms and manifested numerous pagodas. At the same instant, a heaven-suppressing might gushed forth, causing that peak-stage immortal king's expression to freeze. After that, he saw Qin Wentian slashing out with a sword, he wanted to evade this but the suppression energy obstructed his movements completely. He used gravity to bind Qin Wentian yet he didn't expect his own movements to be suppressed as well.
"Puchi!"
At that instant, that peak-stage immortal king only saw coldness in Qin Wentian's eyes. Such coldness indicated that Qin Wentian had never placed him in his eyes at all. Earlier, that attempt to flee and that injury, were all lies to trick him into committing, giving Qin Wentian a chance to more easily kill him.
As a peak-stage immortal king, he was actually nothing but prey in the eyes of his opponent.
The sword arced downwards. The peak-stage immortal king roared as his body was slashed apart. The prison collapsed and when the spectators from afar turned their gazes over, all of them froze when they saw Qin Wentian exiting the prison.
"This is merely the beginning." Qin Wentian's eyes were like lightning, terrifying to the extreme!
