Chapter 837: Deception (1/2)
“It’s you!”
Xia Yu could hardly hide his surprise.
Regardless of what, Wang Lu should not be able to be here at this moment. He had personally confirmed the thickness of the space barrier between the two-worlds passage and the Nine Regions. Even if the people of Nine Regions imitated the Against the World Dragon Pillar and broke through part of the barrier, if they wanted it to accommodate living people, at least people at the two-worlds passage should have the strength of peak level Senior Immortal.
But how could that be possible? Without the refinement of Immortal Spirit and the support of the Immortal Law of the Immortal World, how could there be someone in Nine Regions comparable in power to the peak level Senior Immortal? An elephant could not grow in an ant’s nest, nor a whale in a puddle. The limit of Nine Regions was confirmed by the first group of Immortals who ascended to the Immortal World millions of years ago.
That time was still the most powerful and dreamlike era in the Nine Regions. All the people that walked on earth, without exception, have almighty magical abilities. The great beasts in the Age of Desolation were born with strength that could move mountains and fill the seas. When they became adults, they were even comparable to the True Immortals. Human beings were born with spirit roots and the path of cultivation was smooth and unimpeded.
At that time, there was no systematic Immortal Path. People explored the way forward according to their own abilities. Some moved thousands of kilometers a day, and some took arduous steps. After hundreds of thousands of years of exploration and accumulation, someone finally found out the most spacious path of cultivation—the Immortal Path. And the result of the exploration of immortal cultivators was the birth of the Immortal World.
It was because they were sure that the Nine Regions could not bear a more powerful force that the first group of cultivators made up their mind to leave the land that nurtured them and ascended to a new world, where they started from scratch and completed the transformation from mortal to immortal.
If Nine Regions could accommodate beyond the Immortal World, then what about the tens of thousands of years of accumulation of the original people with amazingly powerful supernatural abilities?
Xia Yu somewhat felt incredulous, but this did not affect his basic judgment.
For this uninvited guest, he waved his hand and sent out a world-destroyer divine wind, which swept toward Wang Lu. Wherever this divine wind passed, the time and space there disintegrated. Even the strong and vigorous astral wind in the ninth sky had to give way.
Even Senior Immortal Xiaoyao himself found it extremely difficult to resist this divine wind. Thus, seeing Xia Yu’s move, Xiaoyao immediately stepped aside to avoid being caught by the aftershock.
At the same time, his heart was full of doubts and surprise.
By appearing here, what did Wang Lu want to do? He was not trapped in the debris of the two-worlds passage. It meant that he finally deduced the synchronization rate of the giant Divine Weapon to the extreme at the last moment and managed to return to Nine Regions smoothly. However, how could he be so stupid that he thought he could face the power of the Immortal King? What did he think the Immortal King was? What did he think of the main culprit that caused the destruction of the numerous worlds?
But, was Wang Lu that stupid? Didn’t he even have the basic logic ability to see the strength of the opponent? After all the hardships, he finally managed to return to Nine Regions, then, did he come here just to die?
Two diametrically contradictory questions made Xiaoyao hesitate whether to rescue Wang Lu or to stay away before Wang Lu’s cards opened up.
At the next moment, the divine wind collided head-on with Wang Lu. In an instant, his body was torn apart. His flesh and bones were cut into countless pieces and were washed away by different periods of time. Some fragments turned into ashes due to long periods of time, some solidified permanently and remained unchanged, while some others traced back to their origins and gradually returned to nothingness.
However, just as the body was destroyed, Wang Lu’s voice rang again.
“Of course, it’s me. Otherwise, who else could appear between you two, father and son, insensitively? Those group of pigs underneath you who don’t dare to even look up?”
This time, the Immortal King finally looked serious.
It was not surprising that he could kill the opponent in a single move, but what was unexpected was that he did not notice the one he killed just now was a clone.
The Immortal King’s eyes could see through all the illusions in the world. Even in the face of the gods of the Western Continent, his divine eyes have never been deceived. And what he saw just now was Wang Lu himself, and he was not wrong…
“Hahaha, are you wondering why I’m still alive? Are you wondering why you can’t distinguish between the real me and my clone?”
As he spoke, the second Wang Lu came out from the void.
“If you want to know, come and beg me, and I’ll tell you.”
However, before his words fell, two auroras shot out from the divine eyes of the Immortal King and penetrated Wang Lu’s forehead and heart. The next moment, Wang Lu’s body was completely wiped out by the supreme spell of the Immortal Path.
However, Wang Lu’s voice was still unhindered in the ninth sky.
“Is this how you, Immortals, ask for help? Kill me with your eyes? You…”
The Immortal King coldly snorted, and the sound wave instantly scattered the astral wind in the ninth sky, which made the sky of the Blue River Region seem unusually clear. And Wang Lu, who was hiding in the void, was shook. His internal organs turned into mud, and blood flowed out of his seven orifices until he died.
“Are you that stupid that you really can’t understand people’s words? Since you want to play, then play as much as you like. Let’s see how long you, this daughter-murderer, can last.”
“Enough!” The Immortal King finally stopped and said, “What do you want to say?”
Thus, the fourth Wang Lu arrived by the astral wind.
