The Romantic Cultivator

In the Royal City of Nefarious, the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was in an urgent meeting with his 3 royal princes, Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal.

Behind him, shrouded with black curtains was the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo who was 3 times the size of the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog.

While the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was the abyssal king of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and soon to be the emperor, he was merely just a puppet in the eyes of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

Today, the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog had a blue and ugly black face; it was because the 10th rank mobile fortress profound monster had returned with bad news for him.

Not only did the immortal apprentice of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had died but they had also lost quite badly, failing to capture the Nightfall Heights and the Cardinal Priestess.

All their intel pointed to a declining Ancient Race and out of the blue, a mysterious and ancient Great Patriarch Sword Saint had emerged.

This information was of course being relayed to them by their mole within the Nightfall Heights and the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog had already learnt of this great defeat way before the return of his defeated abyssal army.

Prince Gong Rosh said panicky, "We don't even know the existence of this Great Patriarch Sword Saint. He is said to have disappeared thousands of years ago…"

Prince Gong Meshech was also saying panicky, "The only threat that we have calculated is the Cardinal Tribune. He has entered into seclusion to ascend as an immortal. If he is successful then there is a small window in which he can fight us as an immortal…"

"But even then, he won't be a true immortal and that is why we have the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim there. It is unthinkable for anyone to be able to kill him. I have heard that this Great Patriarch Sword Saint is merely at the False Immortal level and that means that he is only at the 8th cultivation realm. How is it possible for an 8th realm False Immortal to defeat a peaked 8th realm True Immortal?"

Prince Gong Tubal pointed out, "He has two emperor-step divine swords and he may even be a Sword Deity. If he is a Sword Deity then this may be possible."

Prince Gong Meshech argued with great disbelief, "This is not the most exaggerating part. He can actually tank two of our powerful Deity Destroying Cannons…"

When he had said that, Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Gong Tubal were silenced; it was too unlikeable that anyone could survive a blast from their powerful Deity Destroying Cannon.

One must know that they had built 6 of these powerful Deity Destroying Cannons and had installed it in the mountain citadel of their super mobile fortress.

The profound power of the Deity Destroying Cannon was so destructive that after using it, it had to be cooled down for several hours before it can be used again.

That was the reason why they had constructed 6 of these Deity Destroying Cannon at a huge cost to the royal treasury.

Due to the destructive nature of these Deity Destroying Cannons and the vast amount of profound power that were required to empower it, the 6 Deity Destroying Cannon had to be linked together to a large profound power storage as it was incapable of firing on its own.

This large profound power storage could only handle the profound power surge of two Deity Destroying Cannons at a single time before enough profound power could be generated again after several hours.

Although the Deity Destroying Cannons were extremely powerful, it had its weakness.

The reason why they had prepared 6 Deity Destroying Cannons instead of just 2 was because they were afraid that their enemies may seize the opportunity to destroy the Deity Destroying Cannons once they realized how powerful it is.

The Deity Destroying Cannons were a backup contingency just in case Immortal Abyssal Nephilim would encounter some tricky problems.

It may not be used at all.

But if it is used, they could only see two possibilities; 

One: The Ancient Old Ones has activated their formidable defensive arrays and one of the Deity Destroying Cannon may be used to disable all their defensive shields with just a shot.

Two: To kill the Cardinal Tribune if he emerges or some other powerful opponent. 

Even though they already planted a mole inside the Nightfall Heights but the Ancient Race was more numerous and this was their strongest stronghold with numerous secrets.

A single profound blast of the Deity Destroying Cannon was so powerful that not even the Immortal Abyssal Nephilim would be able to survive through its intense profound power.

But accordingly, to their reports, this Great Patriarch Sword Saint was able to tank two of the Deity Destroying Cannon.

This was just not possible! 

This time round, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo rumbled behind the black curtains. "No 8th realm immortals will be able to survive a blast from the Deity Destroying Cannon. We know that the Ancient Race may still have some False Immortals and the Deity Destroying Cannon is created to take them out. Even if this Great Patriarch Sword Saint have 2 emperor-step divine swords, he still would not be able to survive two blasts at the same time…"

The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo swept his deep voice from the black curtains and his words instilled fear in all the listeners. "Therefore, he must be a 9th realm high immortal. This is the only logical explanation!"

He did not know that Ji Yuan had survived through the 81 purple lightning tribulation, a divine calamity that is only reserved for the upper 9th realm immortals. Therefore, his body has already been tempered to withstand the Deity Destroying Cannon. Also, because he had Anyang and Aura to aid him during the battle.

The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog nodded anxiously, "But what is our next step now? Now that things have become ugly on both sides. We didn't know that such a powerful figure has actually existed on their side. This time we are truly careless. Should we send a more powerful army this time to take over the Nightfall Heights?"

The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo raised his wicked claws, "This time round, I shall pay a visit to the Nightfall Heights to subdue them. No matter how strong this Great Patriarch Sword Saint is, he is incomparable against a True God of the Great Abyssal Race. Moreover, judging from the reports, he did not escape unscathed from the battle too. So, his cultivation strength is lacking after all."

The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was now smiling wryly, "With Ancestor Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo going to the Nightfall Heights this time, this Great Patriarch Sword Saint is going to be dead very soon."

Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal were all smiling too, "All hail our Ancestor Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo! All hail the lineage of the Xi Gongs!"

The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was already thinking how he should rule the Dark Abyssal Realm as its new emperor. Maybe he should start on an ambitious one road, one empire plan that he had been planning for a long time.

All of a sudden, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had violently destroyed part of his throne seat with his wicked claws.

This startled the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog and the 3 Princes.

"What is it?" The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog could not help himself as he asked nervously.

The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo frowned furiously, "I've just received a transmission from the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. The Chaos Race has actually destroyed our garrison in the Entropy Realm and they have refused to pay us tribute anymore…"

The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was astonished, "The Chaos Race actually has the tenacity to war against us?"

The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo growled, "We actually don't have much of an upper hand against the Chaos Race and we have technically only won marginally. In return for peace, they were forced to allow an abyssal garrison in their Dark Entropy Realm. Naturally, we have already suspected that they will attack us once they have elected their new Chaos Emperor Sovereign so we have already actually made preparations when this day comes…"

"However, it seems that this time we have miscalculated."

The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog, Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal: ???

The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo said angrily, "Not only have the Chaos Race destroyed our garrison, they have actually invaded the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm to demand tribute in return! Added to these woes, the Chaos Race have even injured the True Abyssal God Cthulhu and killed the True Abyssal God Baal!"

The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog, Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal were all in shock, "How it is possible?!"

The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo angrily shook himself, "It seems that their First Empress Sovereign Destiny is back!"
