“Hahaha, kid! I’ve got to give it to you! You really know when to summon my clone! This one is even bigger than the previous one!”
Bei Ming cackled in laughter.
Previously, Chu Kuangren summoned his clone to fight the Three Clarity Daoist Sect.
This time, he summoned the clone to deal with the yokai tribes from the Great Ten Thousand Mountain, which included several Arch Gilded Immortals.
“Thank you, senior,” Chu Kuangren said with a faint smile.
“It’s alright, but since this one is much bigger than the previous one, I don’t know if my clone can handle them all.”
Bei Ming chuckled before scanning his eyes across the Sky Centipede King and the countless yokai behind him.
“Senior, I just need you to deal with the Sky Centipede King. As for the others, someone else will handle them.”
“Okay. In that case, I’ll give my best.” Bei Ming laughed as he released the terrifying Celestial Demon intent that swirled around his body.
The Celestial Demon intent contained a gloomy, silent, and frosty feeling, like the deepest part of the sea.
Bei Ming’s figure flashed and flew toward the Sky Centipede King. Then,Celestial Demon qi gushed out, and he struck out with his palm, unleashing darkness that felt like it could devour all the light of the world.
The Sky Centipede King dared not underestimate Bei Ming as he engaged him in battle.
A powerful energy shockwave swept the battlefield, and the yokai cultivators caught in it were killed on the spot.
A rare battle between two Arch Gilded Immortals was happening at Tushan Mountain, and from there, the Arch Gilded intent released contained unmatched power.
As for the other cultivators at the scene, such as the True and Gilded Immortals, they fought the Million Strong Underworld Soldiers with all their strength, but the Underworld Soldiers proved too much for them.
Even when all six of the Beast Ruler Tribes teamed up, the Underworld Soldiers managed to secure the upper hand, and the scale of victory slowly tipped toward Tushan.
“Take down Chu Kuangren first!” shouted one of the yokai tribes’ True Immortal.
Being the one who activated the Myriad Yokai Seal and summoned the Million Strong Underworld Army, Chu Kuangren must be the key to the battle.
With him out of the scene, they would be able to turn the tide of the battle.
Some of the True Immortals believed it, so they executed their thoughts.
The True Immortals of Golden Crow Tribe and Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe seized the chance and attacked Chu Kuangren.
“Fools,” Chu Kuangren bellowed.
Countless Daoist patterns swirled around him to form wild beasts in the air, which looked as lively as the real one.
Immense yokai qi and ferocious qi erupted in the void.
It was the Divine Myriad Yokai Mimicry Technique, Myriad Yokai Diagram!
The moment the diagram appeared, the power it brought shook all the yokai tribes’ True Immortal.
They could not believe that a mere Heavenly Immortal could cast such a powerful technique.
It was horrifying!
Kaboom!
The group of True Immortals was blasted away by the Myriad Yokai Diagram, including some Middle Third-grade True Immortals.
With the Myriad Yokai Seal in his possession, Chu Kuangren had an absolute advantage against the yokai tribes.
In addition to the two Arch Gilded weapons he got, even if he could not mobilize their full potential, a sliver of their power was more than enough to fend off the True Immortals.
Now, unless there were Higher Third-grade True Immortals or a Gilded Immortal on the battlefield, the others were no longer a threat to Chu Kuangren.
“Hmph! Even if I have to suffer karmic repercussions, I will kill you today! As long as you’re alive, the Golden Crow Tribe’s future is shrouded by darkness!”
One of the Gilded Immortals of the Golden Crow Tribe bellowed as his eyes gleamed with utter determination.
Then, his figure flashed and flew toward Chu Kuangren.
The power of a Gilded Immortal erupted, and its immense might instantly enveloped Chu Kuangren whole. Countless Daoist patterns blanketed the land and then transformed into chains that shadowed the realm.
Since he, a Gilded Immortal, intervened, the indomitable karmic repercussions devoured him.
Spit!
Blood gushed from his mouth, and his body was on the brink of collapsing, but he managed to hold himself together.
His Immortal’s Core energy gushed out like a waterfall in an attempt to overwhelm Chu Kuangren with his destructive force.
“Die!”
The Gilded Immortal disregarded the karmic repercussions and launched a reckless attack. However, Chu Kuangren remained calm and carefree.
“How foolish,” he said as he shook his head.
Before the immensely powerful Gilded Immortal’s power could touch him, a figure in white appeared out of nowhere and launched a palm strike at the Golden Crow Gilded Immortal, blasting him away.
The figure in white looked beautiful but possessed an eerie presence.
She was Bai Mei, the new follower that Chu Kuangren acquired from Fengdu Underworld City.
Bai Mei was originally a top-tier True Immoral, but after Chu Kuangren acquired the Samsara Emperor Seal and Ghost Emperor Shensu’s inheritance, he taught her some of the Ghost Dao cultivation techniques.
Now, she was an elite among the Gilded Immortals.
This time, she came together with the Million Strong Underworld Army, but she was not one of them. He did not get her from the gacha roll.
“Trying to harm the Ghost Emperor? Fools!”
Bai Mei stood beside Chu Kuangren as his most loyal guardian and stared at the Golden Crow Gilded Immortal with frosty killing intent.
“Chu Kuangren, you…”
The Golden Crow Gilded Immortal did not expect that at all.
Chu Kuangren looked at the man as though he was looking at a fool. “This is a dangerous battle. There are a ton of True and Gilded Immortals here, and I’m just a Heavenly Immortal, so I ought to be careful. It’s not that surprising to have one or two Gilded Immortals as my guardian.
“You, on the other hand, are you stupid? To attack without a proper plan?”
The moment he said that, an Underworld General in black robes silently appeared behind the Golden Crow Gilded Immortal with a giant scythe.
At that moment, he swung the gleaming dark scythe forward.
“D*mn it!”
The Golden Crow Gilded Immortal noticed the attack from his back and wanted to escape, but it was too late.
The scythe swung forward and slashed the Gilded Immortal into two.
Then, tens of thousands of Underworld Soldiers jumped onto the Gilded Immortal and devoured him.
A hint of fear appeared in Bai Mei’s eyes as she stared at the Underworld General with the scythe.
There were only a small number of Underworld Generals among the millions of soldiers that Chu Kuangren summoned, but there were still a dozen of them.
Each of them was powerful enough to make a name of their own in the Immortal World, yet they all served Chu Kuangren and obeyed every of his command.
She realized that the Underworld Soldiers looked at Chu Kuangren with an undying frenzy and zeal as if he was their creator.
“Ghost Emperor, I’m deeply impressed by your resourceful methods. I wonder where you acquired this army. It’s rare, even in the Underworld.
“With this army, no one other forces in the Underworld will dare to eye Fengdu Underworld City,” Bai Mei said excitedly.
Upon hearing that, Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised. “Someone is eyeing Fengdu Underworld City?”
“Yes, my lord. Other than the three great Underworld Cities, some other forces have their eyes on the Underworld Cities’ reincarnation mechanism. I’ve dealt with a number of them recently, but since Fengdu hasn’t recovered to its prime, I’m having a difficult time dealing with some of them.
“Now, with the army at our side, I’ll be able to use them to guard Fengdu and wait for you to take control of the reincarnation so that you can, one day, become the Underworld’s Heavenly Champion.”
Bai Mei looked at Chu Kuangren excitedly.
“Yeah. Believe me, that day will soon arrive.”
