Even though the Lord and Vice Lord of the Righteous Alliance possessed astonishing strength, they still found it difficult to hold out alone in the current situation. They had done their best, but they had still been pushed back again and again by the men in black, one Righteous Alliance disciple falling after another. Song Yuanyi and Xie Guangting were both pale, their Stellar Energy dim. It was apparent that they had both consumed enormous amounts of energy.

“Demonic Emperor, King of Foreign Lands, there’s no need to thank me. Since ancient times, the righteous and the evil have stood opposed to each other, and I still have no desire to save you. But if we don’t work together now, all of us will be killed. Once we get out of here, we will still walk separate paths!”

Song Yuanyi’s face was cold and tough, but he acted without hesitation. Boom! Boom! The earth rumbled as two streams of Eternal Spring Stellar Energy rumbled into the bodies of the Demonic Emperor and Wushang Village Chief.

The two of them had previously worked together to forcefully open the Subtle realm so that they could deal with Bagushidu. This had required paying an enormous price, and their bodies had suffered internal injuries.

The two of them had been putting all their strength into recovery, but in normal circumstances, they would still need quite some time to recover. But now, with Song Yuanyi’s help, the two of them were mostly healed.

When it came to recovery and healing, if Song Yuanyi claimed his Eternal Spring Mantra to be second, no one in the martial arts world would dare to say they were first.

“Hmph, still desperately struggling?”

As Song Yuanyi moved to better treat Wang Chong’s wounds, the Deer Immortal stood next to the Goat Immortal, his eyes coldly gleaming. Bang! He suddenly shot forward to attack Wang Chong.

The Deer Immortal’s move caused everyone to pale, putting an immense pressure on their minds.

“Guangting, stop him!” Song Yuanyi suddenly commanded.

Screeee! The air suddenly howled as Xie Guangting shot forward. At the same time, the Universe Sundering Art that could break through any defense unleashed a vast torrent of power at the Deer Immortal.

“Myriad Energies Become One!”

“Yang Ren God Art!”

At almost the same time, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief also rose into the air. Xie Guangting was one of the top-class experts of the world, but he would never be able to hold off an expert like the Deer Immortal on his own.

“Hmph, puny ants actually dare to defy a god.”

The Goat Immortal’s eyes flashed with murderous light, and he also flew up to attack Wang Chong.

The Goat Immortal had been rather badly wounded in his battle with Wang Chong, and even now, the dreadful energy of the Art of God and Demon Obliteration was running through his body and damaging his meridians. But this only increased the Goat Immortal’s fury toward Wang Chong.

For a ‘god’ to be defeated by an ant while so many people were watching had robbed the Goat Immortal of all his pride.

Baaaa!

Bleating once more resounded through the air as the Goat Immortal was replaced by a giant golden goat. But the golden goat was clearly not as bright as it was before.

A crisis was imminent. Not even the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief were any match for two masked men.

“Black Yin Ancestor, Myriad Ghost Ancestor, is your lot still not going to act?!” At this moment, Wang Chong furiously roared at the Black Yin Ancestor’s group.

“Damn brat, actually daring to order around this old man!”

The Black Yin Ancestor gnashed his teeth in rage.

But anger was merely anger. The three evil path titans immediately rose into the air without hesitation and attacked the Goat Immortal.

“Black Dragon Rams the Moon!”

“Myriad Ghost Pilgrimage!”

“Great Bone Devil Art!”

Black smoke roiled, ghosts wailed, and all kinds of evil, corpse, foul, Yin, and ruthless energy was guided out of the earth by the three evil path ancestors into their techniques.

“Gonggong Divine Art!”

A bellow came from another direction. At this perilous moment, the Lone Silence Ancestor also entered the battle, using all the moves at his disposal.

In Wang Chong’s party, only the Lone Silence Ancestor had retained most of his strength. He had joined the fray from the start of this battle, serving as an anchor on the front line against the assault of the men in black.

Boomboomboom!

In the blink of an eye, a fierce battle was taking place in the air.

Whether it was the Goat Immortal or Deer Immortal, both were far more powerful than mortal martial artists could possibly imagine. Most people regarded peak Great Generals as the ultimate strength, but this pair had revealed that there was a vast world that existed above the martial arts titans!

But Wang Chong’s previous battles had managed to have an effect. The heavily injured Goat Immortal and the greatly exhausted Deer Immortal were not at peak condition.

For now, though, Wang Chong paid no attention to the battle in the air. These were all martial artists of great power, and though they were weaker than the two masked men, they were completely capable of holding out for a while.

There was only one person that was worth Wang Chong’s attention at this time…

The Tiger Immortal!

The Tiger Immortal gave Wang Chong a completely different feeling from the other two Immortals.

Even though the martial artists of the Central Plains were fighting with their lives on the line, the Tiger Immortal seemed to think that this was just a bunch of children messing around.

Wang Chong was well aware that the Tiger Immortal was so powerful that he regarded the group’s efforts as nothing but pointless struggling on the verge of death.

Wang Chong could see the Tiger Immortal with his hands behind his back, his two eyes peering out from his callous golden mask, paying no attention to the battlefield. Instead, his eyes were staring at the Origin Immortal Palace, twinkling and flashing as he pondered how to break through the golden seal around the palace.

“No matter what, I have to defeat him!”

Wang Chong tightly gripped the Origin Immortal Sword.

They had very little time. The moment the Tiger Immortal took his attention away from the Origin Immortal Palace, he would soon after enter the battle, upon which all of them would be dead.

“These men in black are just too strong. Even if we all work together, we’re still no match for them. If this continues, all of us will die here! For all the top-class experts of the martial arts world to die in a single day is simply unprecedented!”

At some point, Ouyang Changheng had appeared at Wang Chong’s side. His chest was heaving and his azure robe was speckled in blood, signs that he had been rather badly wounded.

The Righteous Alliance had suffered far more losses than expected in this battle, and Ouyang Changheng understood that Wang Chong was the key to this entire battle.

Wang Chong’s fingers clenched and then unclenched.

“Heh, relax!”

Wang Chong continued to stare ahead. He was well aware of how grim the situation was, but there was nothing he could do about it.

“Although they’re extremely strong, it’s not that easy to kill so many of us!”

“Ah?!”

Ouyang Changheng was puzzled by these words.

Wang Chong did not explain. He sent his Psychic Energy howling through the air, linking him to the edge of the distant altar. After all the time that had passed, Wang Chong’s ‘Vitalizing Ember’ skill had finally finished. Wang Chong could finally use the power of the first-generation successor!

“First-generation, come out!”

A thunderous roar resounded through the area.

In response to Wang Chong’s voice, the motionless figure of the first-generation successor at the end of the chains suddenly trembled. This small action had the entire earth quivering in response, clouds of dust rising more than half a foot into the air.

At almost the same time, the Goat Immortal, Deer Immortal, and even the Tiger Immortal seemed to sense something. Turning in the first-generation successor’s direction, they paled.

The Tiger Immortal was particularly taken aback, his eyes flying open as he lost his composed and assured demeanor.

Buzz!

The shaking intensified, and a moment later, an immense energy traveled through the successor’s body into the altar and down into the abyss. Clangclangclang! A great metallic clattering echoed in everyone’s ears.

A few seconds later, the seemingly deceased first-generation successor exploded with immense power that rapidly soared.

Boom! The successor raised his bowed head, and a vast energy erupted from his body and spread out into his surroundings. The air around him turned somber and his figure turned blurry and indistinct.

“What’s going on?!”

“What’s happened?!”

Everyone suddenly felt a mountainous pressure on their bodies, and all of them were panicked and confused as to what had just happened.

The Tiger Immortal’s eyes darkened, and he turned away from the flashing gold of the Origin Immortal Palace. Even the strongest of the three leaders was feeling an immense pressure.
