745 Kill (1/2)

”To think that I'd have such luck when chasing down a God… The heavens truly want my sect to prevail!”

This Immortal was riding the wind with a sword, his white robe fluttering. It was surprisingly the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect's Heaven Immortal from before!

His original intention was to hunt down Fang Yuan. However, after seeing that the River God had left the Surging Waves River's deity territory, he was not shocked but elated and quietly followed him.

After all, if he was within the magic domain, it would be very troublesome for even a Heaven Immortal to take down an Earl-rank Earthly God. With him leaving, it was basically seeking his own death.

Just as he rushed over, he discovered a treasure light soaring into the sky, obviously the sign for the birth of a treasure. He could not help being attracted.

”Since the treasure was spotted by me, it means that it's fated with my Spiritual Flying Sword Sect… Heaven and earth treasures are left for the deserving. And the definition of deserving? It's just strength…”

This Heaven Immortal elder's eyes shimmered. ”This is the main peak of the Mount Huo. Even if this treasure isn't Mountain God Huo's, it's related to him… Heh! These Mountain Gods and Earthly Gods occupy famous mountains and great rivers. There are unusual treasures and precious plants being born there quite often, but they're always first to get the news and able to be the early bird that catches the worm. It's so hateful!

”This God's magical power is average and isn't good at fighting. I can absolutely suppress him!”

The glare of the Heaven Immortal elder was as sharp as a sword. It pierced through the dense haze and saw the Mountain God Palace and the two Gods refining the treasure. ”Hmm? River Earl Surging Waves is also here? This isn't good… If they finish refining this treasure, their strengths will have a drastic increase and I'd be in slight trouble!”

Immortal Cultivators took the utmost importance in the principle of gains and losses.

After seeing this, the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect elder no longer hesitated. He raised his hand and an earth-shattering ray of sword radiance came crashing down.

It flew straight down for three thousand feet, and the sword radiance was able to blind nineteen regions!

He was a Heaven Immortal; in the mortal world, he would be a genuine Sage!

With his movements, the Sword Qi spread across the sky, and a waterfall of light just like a galaxy erupted with a loud bang. The array of the Mountain God Palace flashed before instantly being heavily damaged. It was unknown how many God functionaries and soldiers died.

”What audacity!!!” Every strand of Mountain God Huo's hair stood up, and he exploded in rage. ”Who dares attack my palace?”

Right now, there's no need for discussion. Since this God is refining the treasure with River Earl Surging Waves, he must also be a rogue cut from the same cloth! Attack!

All the people of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect had hot temperaments, not liking to talk, and would directly charge. Furthermore, the treasure was right in front of him. The brilliance in Heaven Immortal elder's hand flashed and a flying sword appeared, glowing with profound divine light. Like a majestic dragon, he pounced down.

”Ah… It's the Heaven Immortal of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect, Bai Jianfei!” Mountain God Huo clenched his teeth. ”Your Spiritual Flying Sword Sect is usually flamboyant and bossy, but you have to give me a reason why you've attacked a Divine Dao palace today. Otherwise, I'll report it to the Heavenly Court and have soldiers dispatched to eliminate your sect!”

”Hmph!” Bai Jianfei's long sleeves fluttered, and his spiritual will commanding the flying sword did not stop at all. ”Your Divine Dao shelters evil people and countenance evil practices. You offended me first, even stealing my treasure and killing my sect's people. I'm only bringing justice on behalf of the heavens!”

Of course, he had no fear because he had a backer.

Although the Divine Dao had the Heavenly Court's backing and the Immortal Dao were in disunity, the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect was part of the 72 immortal sects. Despite them being dirty internally, they would definitely not allow his sect to be destroyed by the Heavenly Court. This was an issue of the Immortal Dao's face.

At a crucial moment, even all 33 large sects might appear!

Thus, as long as he held reason today and obtained an advantage, what did he have to fear?

Mountain God Huo clearly understood this reasoning. He saw Bai Jianfei's swift and fierce Sword Qi change into a large magic hand reaching toward the Heaven Ritual Altar fragment. He became infuriated and shouted, ”You dare?!!!”

He waved his hand and a golden imperial seal with a dignified will appeared in his hand.

This was the Mountain God official seal and represented the complete power of the Mount Huo. Previously, he did not reveal it when probing Fang Yuan.

But taking it out now meant he obviously wanted to go all out.

”Assist me, Mount Huo! Suppress!”

Mountain God Huo's magical powers was quick and simple, only a word—suppress!

With the help of Mount Huo's Spiritual Energy and the dignified will, it created an overwhelming pressure, also having hints of 'simplicity brings superiority'.

Rumble!

The highest peak of the Mount Huo roared and the illusion of mountains appeared behind Mountain God Huo.

The enormous illusion clashed with the Sword Qi, and a shocking large explosion was heard. The mountain rocks shattered, while the Sword Qi and enormous hand vanished.

”Hehe! Good magical powers… You can still bully an Earth Immortal with your magical strength, but do you understand a Heaven Immortal's essence?”

Seeing this, Bai Jianfei immediately showed a determined look. ”Eighty-one chained rings, multiply endlessly!”

With this thought, the scattered Sword Qi gathered again and concentrated to form nine paths of world-shaking sword radiance. Within, a flying sword suddenly made a loud sound like a dragon's roar. It swallowed all of the sword radiance before transforming into a peerless, white sword dragon. It made threatening gestures and then pounced toward the divine seal's illusion of mountains.

Zap! Zap!

The sword radiance was matchless. The flying dragon passed through the mountains and the rays of Sword Qi dispersed, causing all the mountains to begin disintegrating.

Mountain God Huo grunted, and a crack appeared on the Mountain God seal in his hand.

Earl-rank Gods were essentially equivalent to Earth Immortals. Even in their magic domain, they could only slightly cope with a Heaven Immortal.

However, most of them were still defeated in the end.

”Keke… A mere Mountain God dares to go against the dignity of the Immortal Dao. Today, I will strip you both of your Deity Positions and turn you into beasts. You won't be able to reincarnate for the rest of your existence!”

Bai Jianfei pointed again, and the sword brilliance covered the entire area.

”Phew… almost finished!”

At the moment, Fang Yuan was still calmly refining the treasure. He seemed unconcerned about the battle in the sky.

Even so, he was still thinking about how lucky he was in his heart.

If not for the Heaven Immortal Bai Jianfei butting in, Mountain God Huo might have been able to discover what Fang Yuan wanted to do.

However, this God currently did not care and allowed Fang Yuan to complete the refinement.

Whoosh!

A ball of golden flames burned in front of him.

The Heaven Ritual Altar fragment inside began to slowly melt, becoming a ball of jade colored fluid.
